Chapter 252: New Evolution of Medicine God's Kiss
The sky over Saitama Prefecture was as dark as iron, with lead-gray clouds hanging low in the sky, as if they would fall at any moment and crush the Kanto branch base into dust.
Akechi Asuya has returned to his loyal Kanto branch, and is currently at home, bored and busy in his own operation room.
His injuries had mostly recovered, but the dull pain in his left ribs was still like a tiny thorn, reminding him of the brutal battle not long ago.
"How boring..." He murmured softly, his eyes sweeping over the neatly arranged instruments in the operating room: scalpels, bone saws, dissecting scissors... each one sparkled with a cold metallic luster.
The family has decided to cooperate with Kassel College to launch the final crusade against the "God" in the deep sea.
In order to prevent any accidents, the family requires all departments to cooperate fully, mobilize troops, and prepare for the ultimate showdown with the dragon clan.
The Kanto branch was the largest concentration camp for problem children among the Snake Eight Families, and was naturally pushed to the front line.
Most of the members here are crazy, but their madness is valuable - their bloodline ratings are frighteningly high, their combat power is ridiculously strong, but their brains are not quite normal.
They are like captive wild beasts, released to bite people on normal days, and treated as consumables in wartime and thrown into the most dangerous battlefields.
This led to a growing rift between the branch and the main family. The freaks in the branch became more and more undisciplined, and the people in the main family disliked them more and more.
People like their immediate superior, Ryoma Genichirō, are notoriously disliked.
According to the family's private discussions, there is actually not much difference between the people of the Kanto branch and the fierce ghosts. It's just that their bloodline is more stable, and their spirits are no different from ghosts.
After Tachibana Masamune came to power, the situation in the Kanto branch improved slightly. The amiable old man suppressed all voices of discord with his benevolent policies, saying that geniuses should be given enough tolerance and that how could a person without quirks be qualified to be called a genius.
Because of his recommendation, the directors and team leaders of the Kanto branch were not expelled from the family. This move maintained the stability of the Kanto region and made the uncontrollable genius freaks willing to serve him.
But this is not loyalty. It’s just that the problem children don’t have the confidence to break with their family. Being in the middle of it, they deeply understand how unfathomable the Eight Snake Qi Families are.
Moreover, Tachibana Masamune gave them enough freedom and trust.
But Tachibana Masamune died.
So, the crazy people in the Kanto branch suddenly found that they had lost even the last bit of false loyalty.
A genius can serve anyone, whether it is the Snake Eight Families or the Demon Clan, in Akechi Asuya's view there is no difference, it only depends on who offers a higher price.
The ghosts had sent people to contact him before, and it was still in the trial stage, but now they are already busy with their own affairs and probably have neither the energy nor the qualifications to come to him to discuss cooperation.
With a sneer, Akechi Asuya put on rubber gloves like a professional surgeon, tightening his fingers slightly to ensure that they fit every inch of skin, and placed the entire set of dissection instruments neatly into categories.
There are many uncontrollable factors in this god-slaying. No one knows what the situation is like on the seabed, and whether the fetal blood released by the god when it is revived will give rise to many dragon-blood creatures.
The fierce demons have been counterattacking fiercely recently, and the Kansai branch has lost a lot of manpower in Osaka. If a naval battle really breaks out, the Kanto branch can only take on the responsibility, sending more troops and taking more risks.
Asuya Akechi doesn't like being treated as a consumable, but he doesn't intend to be passive and slack off, waiting for others to charge into battle.
He was interested in only two things: dissecting corpses and power.
God-slaying is a feat of killing gods with a mortal body. If possible, he would like to chop the gods himself to see if they will bleed and what color the blood is.
Unfortunately, this ultimate weapon to kill gods is called a nuclear bomb. If it is successfully detonated, not to mention the blood of gods, I'm afraid not even a normal cell will be left.
The operating room was filled with a faint smell of blood, and Asuya Akechi was concentrating on handling the corpse on the operating table.
He was not a forensic doctor, but the scalpel, as thin as a cicada's wing, was as nimble as a butterfly in his hand. He cut through the skin and decomposed the fascia and flesh layer by layer, revealing the white bones and colorful internal organs.
Reaching out and pressing the heart that had lost its vitality and temperature, Akechi Asuya sighed slightly.
Unfortunately, Changchuan, Kotetsu and the others died tragically, either burned to skeletons or shot to pieces, leaving only the sniper Yingxiu, whose body was never found.
Otherwise, he could perform an autopsy to see the difference between the body structures of advanced hybrids and ordinary people.
But after all, they are my subordinates, and I still have to take revenge.
Akechi Asuya actually had a good reputation in the headquarters. He was tough and decisive in his actions, and was considered a breath of fresh air in the Kanto branch which was full of prostitution, gambling and drugs. He heard a little rumor that when Tachibana Masamune died the night before, the guy named Batman also showed up.
Several family heads said that it was the Dragon King of the Demon Clan who attacked the head of the family, but he felt that the death of Tachibana Masamune was closely related to the Gotham gangster.
It is also said that Batman was with Chu Zihang at the time, the big boy who stole his title of invincible in close combat and remained unscathed when Deadpool attacked.
Asuya Akechi used a scalpel to remove two useless lumps of fat, and inexplicably thought of the twin sisters who were burned to skeletons.
His sister had slept with all the male members of the Kanto branch except him. Upon hearing the news of her death, all her companions were furious and wanted to avenge their bed partner.
But that will happen after the God-Slaughtering War. Let’s talk about it after they successfully survive the God-Slaughtering War.
“Tap—tap—tap—”
Clear footsteps were heard outside the operating room. Akechi Asuya raised his head and looked outside the door with a frown.
He seldom invited others to his home, and his subordinates all knew his habit. They were worried that they would become fodder once they got in, so they generally would not take the initiative to visit him.
The footsteps outside the door were very unfamiliar, something he had never heard before, and they sounded with a disgusting confidence.
"Knock knock--" someone knocked on the door of the operating room.
Thinking of the assassinations that the family leaders had encountered in recent days, Akechi Asuya became interested. He did not reach for the saber on the other side of the operating table. He held the scalpel between his fingers and nodded slightly:
"Come in."
The door opened in response, and it was pitch black outside the corridor. The pale light in the operating room spread outward, catching a ghost-like figure.
He was a man wearing a black kimono and a white court noble mask on his face. He had his hands tucked into his wide sleeves and held in front of his abdomen, like a kabuki preparing to perform on stage.
"Good night, Mr. Branch Chief."
Under the white mask, a pair of dark golden eyes were like an unfathomable ancient well, and it was difficult to guess the intention.
Akechi Asuya narrowed his eyes and immediately confirmed the other party's identity: "King General?"
He held the scalpel in his hand and looked up and down, as if he was thinking about where to start the cut:
"Are you here to die?"
"Why can't you come here to discuss cooperation?" The king was not afraid of Asuya Akechi's venomous and cold gaze at all, and took a step forward and stepped into the operating room.
"Now the Fierce Ghosts have become helpless, and even you, the leader, have to personally come out to win them over. What other conditions can you offer that would interest me?"
Upon hearing this, General Wang reached out his hand from his sleeve, holding three bottles of dark red reagents between his fingertips.
The color is deep, like molten bronze mixed with living gold.
Evolutionary medicine?
Akechi Asuya showed disdain, he had heard about the evolutionary medicine of the demons before, it was effective but the side effects were equally horrible.
He longed for power, but he also didn't want to be a brainless beast that only knew how to kill.
The scalpel between the fingers stopped turning, and the meaning was very clear. If he didn't give an explanation that he could accept, then he would not leave today and would stay to serve as dissection material tomorrow night.
"This is the latest type of evolutionary medicine, God's Kiss."
General Wang slowly stretched out his other hand, indicating that he was not carrying any weapon, and walked forward slowly to place the "Kiss of God" between the dissecting instruments.
"The heads of the eight Sheqi families probably didn't tell you why the White King was revived, right?"
Facing Akechi Asuya's slightly curious gaze, the king told him everything about the Lenin that sank into the deep sea and the ancient dragon embryo it carried.
Akechi Asuya really didn't know that the opportunity for the White King's resurrection was actually created by the patriarch himself, and he looked at the three tubes of evolution medicine with a questioning look.
"One of the raw materials for 'God's Kiss' comes from the fetal blood of the ancient dragon embryo.
Back then, the head of the Uesugi family was just an ordinary A-grade hybrid. She was contaminated by the blood of an ancient dragon fetus and turned into a semi-evolved species. Now her bloodline even surpasses that of Genjiro.
Tachibana Masamune used Deadpool fetal serum to curb the transformation of the head of the Uesugi family into a dragon. I did the opposite. After more than ten years of research, I finally developed a stable evolution drug. "
“Interesting.” Akechi suddenly laughed, “But how do you prove that this isn’t some kind of…”
His scalpel stabbed at General Wang's throat without warning: "Hallucinogen?"
The tip of the knife stopped one centimeter away from the skin.
The king did not move at all, and a smile appeared in his golden eyes under the mask. He kept his hands behind his back, and his voice was full of complacency and heroism:
"After taking these three evolutionary medicines, your bloodline will be strengthened to a level close to that of an emperor."
He even disdained to propose a method to verify the authenticity of the evolutionary medicine, and was obviously extremely confident.
When Akechi Asuya drew his sword, he had been staring at the king general. From beginning to end, he did not feel any hesitation or fear from the other party, only the calmness that everything was under control.
Either he was sure that he would not really take action, or he was certain that he could not break through his defense and threaten his safety.
Slowly putting away the knife, Akechi Asuya said calmly: "Your purpose."
"Nuclear bombs can indeed kill gods." The smile in the king's eyes deepened, "But what if the gods have already left their burial place?"
Hearing this, Akechi Asuya widened his eyes slightly.
He pulled the corners of his mouth and showed a somewhat fanatical smile: "Conditions."
"In the battle plan of the Snake Eight Families, the Kansai branch will take a helicopter to monitor the entire sea area from space, and the ninjas of the Fuma family will monitor the situation in the nearby sea area from the periphery." The king smiled and said the battle plan that even Akechi Asuya did not know the full picture.
“And the job of the Kanto branch is fire alert.
You will drive a small police boat to patrol the sea and use dual-fire large-caliber machine guns and individual missiles to deal with deadly crises under the sea at close range.
When the war to kill gods begins, you will be the first to die."
Even though he had known that the Kanto branch would definitely be thrown into the most dangerous place, Akechi Asuya still frowned when he heard the family's arrangements.
"so what."
"Shouldn't you, the God-Slayer, chop off His head with your own hands?"
General Wang glanced at the half-dissected corpse on the operating table and sneered:
"Protect yourself and the geniuses under you. You should fight on the real battlefield of killing gods."
"Not enough." Akechi Asuya shook his head, "I need more 'Kiss of God'."
The three evolutionary medicines allowed him to crush the guy named Chu Zihang, but in the end he was only close to the level of the emperor and could not pose a fatal threat to the gods.
If he wants to taste the divine blood, he must surpass the emperor.
"Ordinary hybrids can only take three at most. If it is Asuya-kun, I think he can receive more blessings from God." The king stretched out his hand, revealing his wrist under his sleeves, on which a hideous blue-black tattoo could be seen.
Akechi Asuya stretched out his hand to shake it, and was surprised to find that it was not a tattoo, but a real dragon scale.
He used a little force in his hands, and it felt like he was holding a ball of steel. The force was like a drop in the ocean and couldn't move it at all.
"This is the result of being directly contaminated by the blood of an ancient dragon." General Wang noticed his gaze, chuckled, retracted his hand, and turned away.
He didn't say when the remaining Divine Kisses would be delivered, and Akechi Asuya didn't ask.
After the masked demon left, Akechi Asuya withdrew his gaze and looked at the three evolution medicines placed between the bone saw and the hammer.
The Divine Kiss developed from the ancient dragon's fetal blood opened the door for him to become the emperor, so what about the White King's fetal blood?
Is it to get closer to God, or... to become God?
"Haha, it's really pleasing."
Akechi Asuya slashed the corpse's body with his sword, held the dead head in his hands and examined it carefully, then threw it away, picked up a new toy and strode away.
…
Meanwhile, in Takamagahara.
Caesar stood on the edge of the dance floor in a white suit, watching Finkel howling on the stage, swinging his coat and twisting his waist. The colorful lights shone on his handsome face, leaving only a look of doubt about life.
Who am I, where am I, and what do I do?
Today he was brought to Takama-ga-hara by Finkel, and he thought he would see a place on high alert, waiting for the king to come and snatch the person away. However, he did not expect that what he saw here was completely different from what he thought.
Finkel took him to the fourth floor and happily went to play games with the Asian man nicknamed Lao Tang. He looked like he had found a soulmate in life and turned off all the thinking components in his brain.
Chu Zihang was sitting there playing the guest role of the director of the aquarium. He looked very worried and no one knew what he was thinking. He answered every question he was asked. It was obvious that he was hiding something and didn't want others to know.
Caesar suspected that his heart was seduced by Lu Mingfei, but he had no evidence.
Although Genjitsu is the favorite disciple of the king, she only has a superficial understanding of this number one enemy and has never seen his true face.
Moreover, although he is a super hybrid, he is extremely weak. Not only is his body as strong as that of a mortal, but he is also busy all day long talking about love with Sakurai Kogure, or imparting his experience to the gigolos in Takama-ga-hara.
The remaining Sakura Yabuki got a lot of information about France and immersed herself in studying it. It looked like she was making a travel guide.
Judging from the team configuration, Caesar seriously suspected that he had joined a Tokyo tour group rather than a Tokyo demon slayer.
I was speechless for the entire day and finally made it to night, ready to sit back and wait for the king to come to me, relying on my own words to carry the whole game in the dark.
As a result, when night fell, the music on the first floor dance floor was blasting loudly, and Caesar suspected that if he released the Word Spirit Kamaitachi, Fingel would dare to leave him with an unforgettable magic sound.
