Chapter 267: Demonic Sword Rebellion Jingyunque, Lone Blade Reflects the Cold Sky on a Rainy Night
As the sky gradually darkened, the last ray of sunlight of early summer disappeared, and Tokyo was covered with dark clouds and shrouded in a thick curtain of rain.
The elite members of the Eight Snake Clans, dressed in black law enforcement uniforms, hid in the night, sometimes looking at the invisible Sea of Japan in the distance, and sometimes looking up at the gigolo parlor that had suspended business.
"In fact, I also want to be a dragon slayer, but my family didn't give me this opportunity."
A law enforcer complained to his companions about his regret for not being able to participate in the God-killing Plan and having to serve as a jailer here.
There were six or seven people crowded in the houses along the street. All of them were law enforcement officers dressed in black, with swords and guns on their waists, and they exuded the ferocity of having seen blood.
"The gods are buried in Takama-ga-hara in the sea, and the Dragon King of the fierce demons is imprisoned in Takama-ga-hara on land. If you go in and kill them, it can be considered as slaying the dragon if you round it off." One of them joked.
"What a joke! The young master will kill me." The man who spoke first glared at his teammates, then sat back on the sofa in boredom, looking up at the dark night:
"How many people do you think will die in this massacre?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the relaxed atmosphere suddenly became silent. It was obvious that no one thought that the family could kill the White King at a very small cost.
The team leader standing at the window turned around and said coldly: "Do your job well and don't be distracted by other things.
The young master said that the fierce ghosts might come at any time to snatch back their Dragon King.
If you take it lightly, you could lose your life."
In order to prevent ordinary people from being involved in the war between hybrids, the busiest streets in Shinjuku have been blocked tonight by the Snake Eight Families, who have spent a large sum of money to book them in the name of filming a movie.
There are few pedestrians on the road now, and only a group of elite members of the Eight Clans of Sheqi disguised as a film crew are still active at the street entrance.
In order to prevent Herzog from stealing people, Yuan Zhisheng made arrangements both above and below ground.
On the surface, there are only dozens of law enforcement officers distributed near Takamagahara, but in fact, there are dozens of fully armed elite soldiers ambushing in the underground sewers, with sufficient firepower to support them in fighting a small battle.
This kind of configuration can be said to have given enough attention to the ghosts.
That's why the law enforcement officer was so negligent just now.
However, they still had to listen to the captain's words. The elite members of the Eight Snake Clans on duty perked up and communicated with the crew outside and the snipers and sentries on high ground, asking if any suspicious persons were found wandering around.
At the same time, in Takama-ga-hara, Chu Zihang was holding a knife on the fourth floor, waiting intently, while Finkel was staring at the surveillance camera in boredom.
"The principal and the others should have arrived by now, right? I don't know how long it will take for them to start diving."
Chu Zihang did not reply. He looked up at the clock hanging on the wall, estimating in his mind the progress of the God-killing Plan.
"Hey, junior brother, do you think the ghosts will come tonight?" Perhaps because he felt the atmosphere was too depressing, Finkel tried to interact with Chu Zihang.
"Yes." The Sword Master of the Children's Palace said concisely.
"Why?"
"Tonight is their last chance." Chu Zihang maintained even breathing and his voice was calm, as if responding to the calm before the storm.
Finkel knew that Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei had a little secret that they didn't tell him, so he wanted to go downstairs to find Lao Tang, but at this time he should be flirting with the eldest daughter of the Longma family, so if he went downstairs he could only show off his love.
All the gigolos in Takama-ga-hara were taken out by Humpback Whale for team-building. With no one to keep him company, he could only open his notebook and find some good movies to watch.
Chu Zihang noticed that he was multitasking but didn't say anything. After all, Takama-ga-hara was surrounded on all six sides by people from the Eight Snake Clans. If the surveillance cameras could capture it, the law enforcement officers would definitely discover it at the first time.
“Ding Di——”
There was a slight ring from my cell phone. I opened it and saw it was a message from my mother.
Summer vacation is about to start, and my mother asked him when he will come back.
Kassel College is a private aristocratic university, but when it comes to holidays, it has a flexible system just like domestic companies.
Chu Zihang doesn't have to worry about failing the exams, nor does he have any special interpersonal relationships to maintain. If the executive department doesn't assign him any tasks, he will probably fly back after the exams.
The situation is a bit special now, and he is not sure where he will go next, so he can only reply with a vague deadline.
Soon a message from my mother popped up, saying to come back early, otherwise mom and dad would go to Sanya for a trip.
Upon seeing this message, Chu Zihang's calm expression wavered slightly. After replying "Have fun", he put away his phone and prepared to continue recuperating.
But Lu Mingfei's message followed closely, and he sent several pictures.
There were huge crowds of people outside the Yokohama International Stadium, a VIP passage with the privilege of going straight ahead without having to queue, the best viewing seats just a few steps away from the stage, and the main stage tightly covered by black curtains.
It was obvious that Lu Mingfei and Eri had already arrived at the concert and taken their seats.
Just tap your finger, re-enter what you just said and click send.
In the stands of the Yokohama International Stadium southwest of Tokyo, Lu Mingfei looked at his good friend's reply "Have fun" on the phone, and replied "Be safe", then put away his phone and waited for the concert to begin.
At this time, the Yokohama International Stadium was already packed with people, with more than 70,000 fans gathered here, and there were still many people queuing up to enter. There were also countless fans outside the venue who did not have tickets but were waiting anxiously just to hear their idols singing.
The "Yokogaoka" among all the Japanese musical beauties is indeed worthy of her reputation.
It was Eri's first time to attend such a lively occasion. The noise and bustle around her made her feel a little uncomfortable, but not to the point where she needed to avoid it.
Because they had been eating and drinking in the amusement park all day and were not hungry, they did not have dinner either. They just bought some snacks and desserts and came in.
At this time, Eri changed into the good friend suit she had bought at Shibuya Parco before. The upper body was a loose white short-sleeved T-shirt, the lower body was a washed blue slim-fit girl's pants, and the feet were wearing a pair of mid-top canvas shoes.
Lu Mingfei next to him was dressed exactly the same, and the two of them sitting there looked like a boy and girl wearing couple outfits to watch a concert.
At this time, many people cast their eyes on this golden couple. Lu Mingfei was holding a large bucket of popcorn that was usually only seen in movie theaters, while Eiry was holding an extra-large cup of Coke and colorful marshmallows. She would take a bite from time to time and then pass it to Lu Mingfei to take a bite.
Before the audience in the front had a chance to enjoy Chinatsu Aoki's reportedly grand opening concert performance, their stomachs were filled with the endless dog food that the young couple showed off.
Time passed by minute by minute, and when the marshmallows were all consumed and Eri took out the spicy strips to sizzle them, the audio equipment worth tens of millions finally sent a reminder that the concert was about to begin.
Instantly, more than 80,000 people inside and outside the huge venue began to shout Aoki Chinatsu's name:
"Chinatsu! Chinatsu!! Chinatsu!!!"
Amid the deafening shouts, Chinatsu Aoki’s famous song – Butterfly! – began to play from the speakers.
The huge curtain on the stage slowly opened with the sound of music, and a giant glass swimming pool filled with water appeared in the field of vision of more than 70,000 spectators.
Just when everyone widened their eyes, trying to see clearly where the protagonist of tonight's concert was, the girl's clear voice, accompanied by the roar of helicopter propellers, cut through the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw a helicopter painted with Chinatsu Aoki's image roaring in from the other side of the venue. A girl with black hair and a white dress stood by the door without any protection, strumming the guitar with an indifferent look in her eyes, like a queen overlooking everyone.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
The same thing happened to Lu Mingfei and Eri. They had actually heard the sound of the helicopter a long time ago, but they just thought it was sent by the TV station to shoot a concert documentary. They didn't expect Aoki Chinatsu to be so bold.
The girl's singing voice resounded throughout Yokohama, and she enjoyed the worship of all the audience.
As the chorus approaches, the helicopter is already hovering directly above the giant glass swimming pool.
Under the almost dazed gaze of the audience, the girl who had swept everything as a queen since her debut leaped into the air with a guitar in her arms, playing the loudest notes and singing the highest climax in the air!
“Bang!!!!”
The concert that will go down in the history of Japanese pop music was officially opened the moment Chinatsu Aoki fell into the glass swimming pool!
Lu Mingfei raised his hand and stroked it gently, and the splashing water droplets turned in mid-air and sprinkled on the rest of the people.
The beautiful singer emerged from the water like a mermaid, her long black hair loose and her white dress clinging to her youthful body, outlining her perfect curves.
Under the spotlight, she is as beautiful as an angel, yet gives people the temptation of a devil.
A minute later, there was thunderous applause!
“Boom boom boom—”
There were loud thunders in the dark sky and lightning snakes flashed among the thick clouds.
No sound could be heard on the floor where the law enforcement officers were stationed.
The elite members of the Eight Snake Clans who were responsible for guarding the front of Takamaga-hara fell in a pool of blood, and the sofa under them was cut in two.
There were no signs of fighting at the scene, and even the expressions on their faces were only confusion and bewilderment. Their dull eyes stared at the ceiling, as if they had no idea why they had suddenly died.
The radio communication channel remained silent. The snipers and sentries on the high-rise buildings had not yet noticed the death of their companions below. They were scanning everything around them through the sniper rifle's scope and telescope.
The next second, an ominous sense of crisis suddenly arose in his mind, but before his body could react, severe pain in his chest and neck had already struck him. His body collapsed in the rain, and blood mixed with rootless water spread.
The figure in the black cloak slowly withdrew his hand, and licked the blood on his fingertips with his long and slippery tongue. His red-gold eyes were like two lonely lamps in the rain as he looked towards the quiet nightclub, and his cracked mouth curled up in a hideous arc.
"Bang bang bang bang bang-!!!"
In the basement of Takama-ga-hara, fifty fully armed law enforcement officers opened fire crazily, not daring to release their index fingers on the triggers.
At the moment when the thunder sounded, the sound of scales rubbing against the ground and the low cry of a baby could be heard from far away in the underground passage.
This kind of noise was very familiar to the law enforcement officers who had experienced the battle to eliminate Deadpool of Genji Heavy Industries. They immediately raised the muzzles of their guns and cannons towards the direction where the sound came from, and began to fire wildly the moment those bronze monsters with human heads and snake bodies appeared in their sight.
The lights were arranged in advance, and the underground sewer was as bright as day. The roaring snake-like Deadpool was like a bronze tide, braving the hail of bullets and rushing forward fearlessly.
The sewers, edges, and even the walls and ceilings are all filled with their ferocious and burly bodies.
Deadpool, who was rushing in the front, had his scales shattered by the solid bullet, leaving his flesh and blood all over the place.
Due to the severe pain and strong resistance, they lost the motivation to move forward, and were instantly crushed by their peers behind them, howling miserably as they were turned into meat patties.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
"Deadpool invasion! Deadpool invasion!"
"Requesting support! Requesting support!"
The deafening sound of gunfire penetrated a space of more than ten meters and reached the ground. The law enforcement officers roared, and their roars were mixed with cries for help!
Old Tang on the third floor immediately put down the game controller and pulled Ryoma Kaoru to the next room, where Gen Chitose was sitting, and next to her were the Sakurai siblings, who were fully armed with guns.
On the fourth floor, Finkel hurriedly turned down the volume the moment the gunshot rang out, only to find that the gunshot did not come from the computer, but from underground.
"Shit, it's really coming?!"
He cursed under his breath, pushed his computer aside, took a box out from under his desk, quickly put on his bulletproof vest, and hung his shotgun, automatic rifle, pistol and magazines on his body at the same time.
When he armed himself and finally put on his helmet, he found that the black-haired boy on the sofa in the middle of the living room had disappeared.
A cold wind blew, accompanied by fine rain. The side window was open and the wind and rain swept in.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!”
Thunder flashed in the sky. The law enforcement officers who stayed on the ground heard the gunshots and shouted loudly on the channel, but all they heard on the radio was the harsh sound of electricity.
Not serious at all, the law enforcers, whose acting skills were comparable to those of the young actors of later generations, threw away their disguises, picked up weapons from the prop box, and did not dare to support their lost teammates, for fear that it was a diversionary tactic. They dispersed at the entrance of Takama-ga-hara nightclub and found shelters to guard against possible attacks at any time.
But before they could find the enemy hiding in the dark, the roar of a modified sports car was heard in the heavy rain.
From a distance, a red Alfa Romeo sports car broke through the rain and came speeding, its bright headlights like snake eyes.
The crew's equipment was piled up in the middle of the road, but it was actually a roadblock used to block outside vision and hinder the passage of vehicles. The Alfa Romeo drifted gracefully at the moment of approach, and the hood of the car was only an inch away from the outermost prop box.
Seeing that there was only one person coming, the elite law enforcement officers were waiting attentively, clenching their weapons. Some of them who had interacted with the Kanto branch recognized the car and said in surprise:
"This is... Minister Asuya's car?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scarlet sports car braked suddenly, and the tires rubbed against the wet ground, leaving charred tire marks, and it slid all the way to a stop in front of everyone.
The car door opened, and a tall young man with a solemn and cold face got out of the car, striding towards them with a knife in his hand:
"Communications are down. What happened? Where are the others?!"
With such a natural question, coupled with the other party's identity as the head of the Kanto branch, the elite members of the Eight Snake Families subconsciously regarded him as reinforcements sent by the main family.
As for why there is only one person, it is of course because Chief Akechi Asuya is fast and strong, and is always the first to rush to kill people.
As for why he, as the head of the Kanto branch, did not personally go to the God-Slaying Battlefield to participate in the command, but stayed in Tokyo, the arrangements between the big shots were not something that those at the bottom of society would be concerned about.
The law enforcer wearing a director's hat walked out from behind the bunker, bowed slightly, and sounded a little guilty:
"The sniper team and the reconnaissance team have all lost contact, and the underground defense force has also been attacked, but we haven't found out where the enemy is hiding yet."
Upon hearing this, Akechi Asuya frowned and turned to look at the building behind him. The mist and rain were so hazy that he couldn't see anything hidden in the dark.
Seeing that he so easily turned his back to them, the other law enforcement officers hiding behind the bunkers also walked out cautiously, with vigilant eyes and weapons in their hands slightly lowered, keeping an angle ready to raise their guns and shoot at any time if any situation occurred.
"Minister Asuya, are you alone?"
Someone asked in a low voice. Akechi Asuya was a tough guy and few people under his command dared to question his decisions.
Akechi Asuya turned around and looked at the law enforcers who were still standing in a somewhat scattered position. His golden eyes slowly lit up:
"Others are on their way, but in this situation, I am enough."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a roar of engines approaching from behind. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw eight sports cars of different colors occupying the entire road and heading straight towards them.
There are twelve team leaders in the Kanto branch. Four of them and one deputy team leader had died before. It is obvious who are the drivers of these eight cars.
The leading law enforcer sensed something was wrong. If the Kanto branch chief was a close combat expert and staying in Tokyo would bring more benefits than disadvantages, then why were the other team leaders here?
"No, he..."
Just as he wanted to loudly warn his teammates, there was a clang of a sword in the rain, and a stunning white streak appeared in the lightning and instantly passed across the law enforcer's neck.
“Puff——”
A head with a look of surprise and anger flew high into the air, and blood gushed out like a column from the severed head of the headless corpse.
The sudden scene made the more than 30 law enforcement officers present all look stunned. They looked at Akechi Asuya in disbelief, unable to believe that the other party would actually do such a treacherous act.
But he was a professional demon slayer after all. He had experienced countless battles, and he reacted at the first moment, raised his gun and pulled the trigger.
They all knew that Akechi Asuya had a reputation as being invincible in close combat at Kassel Academy, and it was impossible for him to be stupid enough to fight the opponent with fists, feet, or cold weapons.
However, they were too close just now, and the demon sword Akechi Asuya's full force burst out, leaving a blurry afterimage in the lights in front of Takama-ga-hara garden, and only the lightning-fast sword light flashed among the crowd.
Screams rang out one after another. The elite soldiers who had fought in hundreds of battles were as weak as chickens in front of the demon sword and were no match for it at all.
“Squeak—”
Eight sports cars crashed into the props in the middle of the road, and the team leaders jumped out, either pulling out double guns in the air and pulling the trigger, or rushing forward as fast as a leopard to grab the head.
In a short while, more than thirty law enforcement officers fell in a pool of blood with unwilling eyes.
Nine men and women dressed in law enforcement uniforms, with blood on their faces to varying degrees, stood in the rain with evil smiles on their faces, their golden eyes emitting a strange and brilliant light.
"Ah - I really love this feeling, Asuya, it's so great to be hanging out with you!"
"Yes, Minister, lead us to charge again. I want to try what it feels like to chop the emperor!"
A few sick young men were saying extremely dangerous words in the rain, with abnormal madness on their faces, and it was obvious that they were addicted to something.
Akechi Asuya swung his sword in a flower shape, shook off the blood on the blade, and looked towards Takama-ga-hara with his scarlet-gold eyes, which were filled with undisguised ambition and desire to kill.
The power brought by God's Kiss made him unable to stop. He just wanted to find a durable sandbag to chop him for three days and three nights!
And it just so happens that there is an emperor hidden here.
The movement here cannot be concealed, Genji Heavy Industries will soon send support, we must fight quickly and get the Minamoto Chitose!
"Walk!"
He chuckled and walked ahead.
However, just after taking two steps, a creaking sound was heard in the rain, and the door of Takama-ga-hara was pushed open from the inside.
The nineteen-year-old boy walked into the rain with a three-foot-long sword in hand. His snow-white shirt instantly became transparent in the heavy rain.
The strands of hair on his forehead stuck to his stern brows, but they could not hide his pair of molten gold vertical pupils. He looked like an ancient dragon staring at his prey indifferently.
The nine figures had sneered expressions on their faces, and their gazes were cruel and brutal.
The young man gently pushed the blade with his thumb, and a clear clanging sound cut through the sound of rain.
The blade was three inches out of the sheath, and the cold light illuminated his lips which were pursed into a straight line.
No roar, no hesitation, just like a lone wolf baring its fangs in a rainstorm.
