Chapter 120 Heavy Rain, Tokyo, Bloody Auction (Part 4)
Amid the sound of heavy rain, Xia Pingzhou slowly turned his head and looked towards the wall in the corner of the ruins together with the nine members of the White Crow Brigade.
Suddenly, a door appeared on the dark wall.
Then, someone pushed open the door from the other side, and behind the door was the auction scene in the mirror.
The auction house in the mirror had been turned into a mess by the group leader. The guests and seats were swept away by the poker explosion, and the whole venue fell silent for a while. There were only a few guests who survived, and they were undoubtedly strong.
At this moment, Robert with the mechanical box head was standing behind the door. A flock of crows flew over his head, through the wooden door and into the ruins.
As the crows flew, the villains of the White Crow Brigade stood up from the ruins, and walked slowly towards the door frame in the corner of the ruins, accompanied by wind, rain and thunder. It was as if a group of evil ghosts who chose their prey appeared on the stage under a spotlight made of blood.
Xia Pingzhou was the slowest one to start.
"Let's go." Ayase Origami spoke expressionlessly to Xia Pingzhou.
She raised her right arm and pulled out thousands of stacks of paper that had been stored in an abandoned building.
The paper pages deformed in mid-air, and in the blink of an eye they turned into thousands of fluttering butterflies, which followed Ayase Origami through the portal and into the auction site in the mirror.
Paper butterflies fluttered, the sleeves of the ochre-red kimono fluttered in the wind, and Ayase Origami's eyes were empty and deep.
With her clogs on the auction table, she wrote in the air with a piece of paper and said to Robert:
"Carrot head, drag."
Bai Tanlang stepped over the threshold and said in a deep voice, "You're so slow... I almost fell asleep waiting."
"It's so slow!" Lan Duoduo walked through the wooden door and bumped Robert's shoulder with a playful smile.
Robert scratched the head of the mechanical box and defended himself: "Ah, I can't do anything about it. The leader has instructed that we must start after the auction begins, otherwise the auctioneer has not taken the goods out of the safe yet."
"I say... you old guys, please stop making things difficult for us, Carrot Head." Andrew, holding a sniper rifle and smoking a cigarette, crossed the wooden door with a crooked eyebrow and winked, "Did Carrot Head provoke you? Isn't it good enough that I risked my life to open the door for you?"
The Bloodborn licked his lips and said, "But the captain killed everyone by himself, what are we going to do?"
An Luns walked over the wooden door, put his hands in his suit pockets, and looked up at the remaining five people in the venue. They were Jing Shou, Lan Hu, Li Qingping, the Second Prince, and Zhou Jiuya.
His gaze stayed on Lan Hu, Li Qingping and Zhou Jiuya for one second respectively.
An Lunsi curled his lips and said, "Why do you need to ask? Aren't there still three heavyweights left for us?"
Oda Takikage and Xia Ping Zhou crossed the threshold in silence. Neither of them was very talkative.
Xia Pingzhou looked up at the situation at the scene. At this moment, the restraint incarnation of the black pupa had died in the indiscriminate explosion just now, so he was asking the black pupa's real body to come over.
Finally, Jack the Ripper walked through the wooden door holding a dark red dagger, and the collar of his black school uniform swayed in the wind raised by the crows.
She asked immediately, "How do we divide the work?"
The hacker yawned and shoved his hands in his jumpsuit pockets.
The little brat said without even looking up: "The leader said that no one from the auction should be left alive, just kill them all and that's it."
He smacked his lips and said, "There are two auction halls in total. This is the auction hall in the mirror. The soldiers in the real auction hall also need to be cleared out, so you guys should split up and go there."
"Then Uncle Takikage, go and clean up the fish that have slipped through the net in the corridor on the fifth floor of the building. You have the best tracking ability and will not let those fish that slip through the net escape."
At this point, the hacker rubbed his dark circles and said, "Carrot Head and I don't fight. I'm going to collect the auction items. It's hard for us to escape if Carrot Head is dead, so we just need to watch from the back and wait for a door to open."
Robert obviously had no objection to this position assignment. His job every time was to open the door, open the door, and open the door. Apart from that, he would take a nap, take a nap, and take a nap. This was a position that saved time and effort for the group members.
"Then I'll go clear the people in the corridor and leave the two auction rooms to you."
After saying this, Oda Takikage's figure immediately disappeared into the shadows under his feet.
At this moment, An Lunsi took out a coin from his suit pocket and threw it upwards. The coin flipped in the air. He pulled the corner of his lips, looked at everyone and said:
"The winner stays in the auction house in the mirror, and the loser goes to another auction house to clean up the trash."
So, except for Robert and the hacker, all eight members of the brigade looked at the silver coin spinning in the air.
"Head on." Xia Pingzhou was the first to speak. The weakest one showed the strongest momentum.
"Front view." Ayase Origami said. She was obviously waiting for Xia Pingzhou to speak before she spoke, wanting to do the same as him.
"Front." The blood descendant smiled slightly.
"Then I'm facing forward too!" Lan Duoduo raised his arms like a primary school student, his blue hair swaying slightly.
"Tails," said Jack the Ripper.
"Tails," said Andrew.
"The other side." said Bai Tanlang.
"Then I'll bet on the opposite side too." An Luns said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, he placed the silver coin that was spinning in the air at high speed on the back of his right hand, then slowly opened his left hand and revealed the result.
At this moment, the coin on the back of my hand is facing up - "reverse side".
"Tails wins."
An Lunsi raised his eyes from the coins, curled his lips and announced: "Then according to the pre-arranged agreement: Newcomer, Gangster Miss, Vampire Miss and Lan Duoduo, the four of you go to the auction house next door to clean up the trash; I, Sister Ripper, Uncle Andrew and Bai Tanlang stay here."
Xia Pingzhou had a blank expression on his face, thinking to himself, "What a good result... Then I'm going to beat up my sister. I didn't want to stay here to play the high-end game anyway."
"Okay, okay, then I'll follow the new guy." Lan Duoduo put his hand on Xia Pingzhou's shoulder and smiled at him, "Handsome boy, I'll protect you!"
Xia Pingzhou reiterated: "I don't understand Cantonese."
Lan Duoduo stuck out her tongue: "Tsk, then let's not speak Cantonese."
Ayase Origami turned her head and glanced at the Blood Descendant: "Why are you following me?"
The Blood Descendant yawned and said disapprovingly, "I'm following the newcomer."
Robert put his hand on the wall, created a new portal, and said:
"This door leads to the 'Real Auction House'. Please hurry up. Takikage is already killing people in the corridor. Don't add to his workload."
Hearing this, Xia Pingzhou was still the newbie and walked in front, the first to walk towards the wooden door, without any sense of being a rookie.
Ayase Origami, Xueyi and Lan Duoduo followed him, passed through the wooden door one by one, and entered the auction venue in the real world.
"Then I'll go collect the auction items. Call me after you finish killing people. I should be done by then."
After saying that, the hacker lowered his head to look at his phone and walked towards the secret corridor behind the auction table without looking back.
One minute ago, at the auction venue in the real world.
"Captain... is it actually Ritsu Haibara?"
After receiving the notification from Hei Pupa, Ke Qirui put his hand on his chin and thought for a moment.
She immediately determined the identity of the brigade leader based on the limited information she had.
So she asked Yingwu and Dongshan Nobunaga to stay put for the time being, and then used her cell phone to contact Xu Sanyan and Lin Zhengquan who were waiting outside the corridor, and asked them to rush to the mirror world with her to check the situation in the mirror auction house.
Immediately afterwards, Ke Qirui took Su Zimai and left the real auction venue as soon as possible.
They rushed towards the mirror entrance.
However…less than five seconds after the two of them stepped out of the auction hall, a huge noise and uproar came from the auction venue behind them.
Hearing the sudden noise, Su Zimai was slightly startled and turned his head in time to look at Ke Qirui.
"Let's go back and take a look." Ke Qirui said.
"Yeah." Su Zimai nodded.
The two quickly returned to the real auction venue.
Standing at the entrance of the auction venue, Ke Qirui raised his clear eyes and looked towards the huge auction venue.
At this moment, four sudden figures appeared on the auction table that attracted everyone's attention, and the spotlight shone on them - a girl in a white kimono like a doll, a handsome boy in a black sweatshirt, a blonde woman with red eyes in a red dress, and a girl with blue hair and a punk-style T-shirt.
Behind these four people is a wooden door that connects to the auction house in the mirror world.
At this moment, thousands of paper butterflies came out from behind the door and fluttered in the air.
Ke Qirui murmured, "So they found an opportunity to take advantage of us... The member No. 7 that Hei Pu mentioned opened a door for the people of the brigade in the auction house, and it seems that the fight has already started in the mirror world."
Because the auctioneers knew Ayase Origami's abilities in advance, they did not leave too many paper objects in the auction hall to prevent Ayase Origami from using them.
Therefore, the scene before our eyes can only be explained as follows: Ayase Origami brought these pages in from somewhere else.
The purpose is of course... to kill people.
Staring at the figure leading the four, Ke Qirui murmured a name:
"Xia Ping Zhou."
She lowered the brim of her deerstalker hat and looked at the four people on the stage from beneath it.
Let’s not talk about Xia Pingzhou for now. Both Lan Duoduo and Ayase Origami are on the list of the brigade that has been made public, so the ability of the Bloodline alone is still unknown.
"Captain, what should we do?" Su Zimai frowned, "So many small fry are in the way."
Ke Qirui reached out to stop Su Zimai and whispered, "Let's take a look at the situation first. It will take some time for me to wake up the movie demon. And with so many people here, it will be difficult for me to release the train demon. It will easily hurt our friends by mistake."
She paused and looked at Sakuratake and Fuyuyama Nobunaga who were also standing at the entrance. "Ms. Sakuratake, Mr. Nobunaga, the two of you must not act. It is best to let the elite team from the underworld test the strength of the brigade first, and then we can make plans."
Yingwu nodded and looked at the four members of the brigade on the auction table with a frown.
Nobunaga Fuyuyama did not respond. He took out the katana from the hilt at his waist. The blade hummed in silence, reflecting a captivating cold light.
At this moment, inside the auction house.
After seeing the four people coming out from behind the wooden door, the 100 bodyguards disguised as guests jumped up from their seats and launched a violent attack on them, just like wolves in sheep's clothing showing their fangs.
"Go to hell, you bastards in the brigade!"
First came the 50 armed bodyguards, who raised their submachine guns while growling.
Gunfire and bullets poured out like a rainstorm, sweeping towards the four people on the stage; some even took out a rocket launcher, and with a loud "bang", a rocket with a micro-thruster was shot towards the four people.
However, all of this was blocked by a dark white barrier formed by paper butterflies. Whether it was gunfire or exploding rockets, they only turned into a beam of light that illuminated the faces of the bodyguards, and failed to shake the paper curtain in the slightest.
The next moment, the pages turned into fluttering butterflies and flew in all directions.
No matter how hard the 50 armed bodyguards fired, they could not stop the flying paper butterflies.
In the dazzling attack, the butterflies cut their throats into beautiful gashes. The bodyguards covered their necks with blood, screamed, and fell to the ground, unable to get up again.
Half of the other 50 bodyguards with special abilities were also killed by paper butterflies in an instant.
One of the bodyguards had the ability to transform into a giant. His body instantly expanded ten times in size, protecting the remaining 20 bodyguards behind him.
In a short while, the huge body was eaten by the paper butterflies all over the sky, leaving not even a trace of residue. Thousands of bloody holes spread out, and blood dyed the floor of the auction hall red like a waterfall, spreading out endlessly.
When he came to his senses, the giant had turned into a pale skeleton.
Another bodyguard in a suit managed to break through the storm of paper butterflies that swept in.
He rushed forward, releasing his supernatural powers like a suicide soldier, exchanging his position with that of the blood descendant.
So in the blink of an eye, the bodyguard in a suit appeared at the Blood Descendant's original position - that is, the auction table; and the Blood Descendant exchanged positions with him and was surrounded by the supernatural bodyguards below the stage.
He turned his head to look at Ayase Origami who was nearby, and with a ferocious look on his face he opened his suit jacket, revealing a series of bomb devices tied to his body.
Ayase Origami didn't even turn her head, she just casually swung her right hand and chopped off the neck of the bodyguard in suits with her hand knife.
With a "pop", his head and body were separated, and he didn't even have time to detonate the bomb installed on his body.
But the device still started the countdown, so Ayase Origami wrapped the body of the bodyguard in a suit with paper butterflies, created a paper shell, and wrapped the bodyguard's body like a mummy.
Then, the bomb device on the body exploded, and the raging flames were completely engulfed in the cardboard shell - the power of the explosion only burned the body of the bodyguard himself, and not even a muffled sound could be heard from the cardboard shell, let alone any aftermath.
“Ohhh…”
Lan Duoduo snorted twice, summoned the Atlas of Strange Stories, held it in his left hand, raised his right elbow and placed it on Xia Pingzhou's shoulder, tilted his head and said teasingly: "The young lady is going crazy, it's rare for her to be so serious... Newcomers, it seems that there is no room for us to perform."
Xia Pingzhou remained silent, standing on the stage and looking far away at Su Zimai at the entrance.
Then, he, along with the two members of the brigade on the stage, lowered their eyes to look at the blood descendants who were teleported by supernatural powers into the circle of bodyguards.
The three members of the brigade had no intention of stepping down to help the blood descendants.
He just watched quietly as the blood descendant was besieged by more than twenty surviving superpower bodyguards.
At this moment, the elite captains of the superpower bodyguard team, the dragon-level superpowers - "Big Snake", "Red-Eyed Crocodile" and "Green-Faced Ghost" all jumped up at the same time. They ordered the bodyguard team behind them not to take action, and then moved their bodies to rush towards the blood descendants.
The "big snake" turned into a giant python covered with white scales. The suit on his body was instantly torn apart, and the giant snake rushed forward dragging its tail;
The "Red-Eyed Crocodile" transformed into a red-eyed crocodile, burrowed into the ground, and with a rumbling sound, attacked the Bloodline from the underground of the auction house;
The "Green-faced Ghost" released his supernatural powers, transforming himself into a ferocious green evil ghost that pounced forward and bit.
They are all shape-shifting psychics, and are also the elite in the Japanese underworld. They have fought their way out of the brutal competition and climbed mountains of corpses to get to their current positions. Each of the three is full of confidence in themselves.
Even the White Crow Brigade would not be their match.
"You got the wrong person... It would have been fine if you had brought our newcomer over, but you chose me."
The Blood Descendant teased with a smile on her face, her arm stretched straight to the right.
He raised his right index finger, and blood gushed out from his fingertips like a spring. Then the blood solidified in mid-air in an instant and turned into a five-meter-long red sword.
In an instant, she grasped the blood sword, danced the sword body in a circle, and swung it forward in an arc wrapped in blood.
"Big Snake" and "Green-Faced Ghost" were the first to be hit. They were cut in half at the same time, turning into a piece of dull flesh and blood flying in the air. With a "pop" sound, their broken bodies smashed against the pillars of the venue, splashing a pool of black blood.
Then, the cold blood light that danced out from the long sword spread outwards like a gust of strong wind, cutting in half the remaining twenty or so bodyguards in the auction hall.
After a long silence, the bodyguards lowered their eyes blankly and looked at their bodies.
They watched with their own eyes as their upper and lower bodies separated.
Slowly, more than twenty upper bodies slid to the ground first.
Then, the lower bodies of more than twenty people slowly knelt on the ground.
If you don't look carefully, this scene looks like more than twenty corpses appeared out of thin air on the ground, which is creepy.
"Hey, hey, hey! Bloodline, there is another person hiding underground!" Lan Duoduo was bored, so he spoke up to remind him.
"I'm not deaf." The blood descendant said lightly.
She pricked up her ears, listened to the rumbling sound coming from underground, and threw the sword in her hand upwards.
In mid-air, the sword made of blood slowly spun two or three times, and then suddenly accelerated countless times, piercing into the ground like an arrow.
The next moment, the red-eyed crocodile, which was about to emerge from the ground and try to launch a surprise attack from behind the blood descendant, felt a black screen before his eyes, heard a "puff" sound, and his entire brain was buzzing and shaking.
When he came to his senses, he found that his head and entire body were pierced by the five-meter-long blood sword, just like barbecue on a skewer.
The red-eyed crocodile's body slid into the pit and slowly stopped moving.
At this point, all one hundred bodyguards in the auction hall were killed.
The blood descendant stood in a regal posture, motionless in the same place, her red skirt fluttering like the sky at dusk, her long light golden hair undulating slightly like waves.
"Do you have any other toys prepared?"
As she spoke, she pulled the corners of her lips and raised her red eyes to look forward.
At this moment, less than 10 seconds had passed since the four members of the brigade appeared, and there were only a few figures left in the huge auction hall, and these figures were all concentrated at the entrance of the auction hall.
They are Yingwu, Dongshan Nobunaga, Ke Qirui and Su Zimai.
Ke Qirui's expression was calm as he looked directly into the blood descendant's provocative gaze.
Su Zimai stood there in a daze. Facing the bloody smell, his face was stunned and his feet could not move.
Yingwu and Fuyuyama Nobunaga were pale, with fear and anger, and their hands were shaking slightly. They knew that the group was strong, but they saw it with their own eyes and knew what kind of monsters it was.
Ke Qirui lowered the brim of his Deerstake hat slightly and said calmly, "Ms. Yingwu, Mr. Nobunaga, I'm sure you've seen it. I don't think it's appropriate to fight them. Let's go to the mirror world first..."
However, before Ke Qirui could finish his words, Yingwu and Fuyuyama Nobunaga had already rushed forward quickly.
Ying Wu's expression was extremely cold. He roared and swung the sword in his hand, and thousands of petals swept forward.
Ayase Origami fell from the auction table, and the thousands of paper butterflies surrounding her suddenly gathered into a lifelike dragon.
The ten-meter-long paper dragon simply flapped its paper wings and blew away the petals that Yingwu was dancing with. Then, the paper dragon suddenly flapped its wings and rushed forward on its belly.
In an instant, the paper dragon appeared behind Yingwu. It tore off Yingwu's head and bit it between its teeth. Then it slowly turned around and tore open her body with its paper wings.
On the other side, Fuyuyama Nobunaga covered his sword with a layer of flowing water, which slowly formed the shape of a flowing dragon in mid-air. He roared and strode towards the blood descendant.
The blood descendant shrugged his shoulders, blood gushed out from the nails of his right hand, and the blood formed a spear in mid-air.
She raised the blood-red spear, spun her arm backwards to gain momentum, and threw it towards Nobunaga Fuyuyama.
“Bang!” A loud sound of the air being torn apart was heard.
In an instant, the blood-red spear pierced through the mad dragon formed by the water flow, and also went through Fuyuyama Nobunaga's chest, impaling him on the spear.
The blood-forged spear carried Nobunaga Fuyuyama's body across half the distance of the auction hall, pierced through countless columns, and finally pierced into the wall at the entrance.
The blood spear landed only three meters away from Ke Qirui, and the huge wind pressure lifted the brim of her hat.
Looking at this scene, Ke Qirui's expression remained calm.
She raised her hand and touched the top of Su Zimai's head, saying calmly, "The Japanese just don't understand human language... They have strong self-esteem, and their minds are full of sacrificing themselves for the greater good. They don't allow themselves to retreat. What's the difference between this and committing suicide by disembowelment?"
Beside her, Su Zimai was as pale as paper, standing there motionless like a statue.
This was the first time she had seen such a scene since she became an exorcist.
A few seconds ago, there were still hundreds of people in the auction hall, which made people feel reassured. But in just a few seconds, they were all killed by the enemy with an overwhelming force.
The methods of the White Crow Brigade are as emotionless as those of butchers in a slaughterhouse. It's as if they see humans as pork on a chopping board. Every cut is extremely efficient and effortless. They give people the feeling that they are thinking - "After slaughtering these pigs, it's time to get off work. What should I do then?"
"Sanyan and Lin Zhengquan said they are here."
Ke Qirui glanced at his phone and spoke to break the silence that shrouded the auction hall.
Then she slowly took off the Deersteck hat on her head and put it on Su Zimai's head. She said:
"Although I know it's immoral to say this, it would actually be easier for us if all the people died."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Sanyan and Lin Zhengquan rushed in from the corridor outside the auction house.
Lin Zhengquan looked at the bloody scene in the auction hall and couldn't help but frowning.
He whispered, "Sorry, I'm late. I just ran into a ninja in the corridor and had a standoff with him for a while."
Ninja, Oda Takikage from the brigade? Thinking of this, Ke Qirui asked casually, "How is the ninja you mentioned?"
Xu Sanyan replied expressionlessly: "The ninja has temporarily retreated. It seems that his goal is only to kill the other bodyguards in the corridor. He has no intention of fighting us to the end."
As he spoke, he looked at the pile of corpses at the auction site and couldn't help but tease, "Captain, you are such a bad person... Why did you wait until all the bodyguards were dead before taking action?"
"No...it just takes a while to wake up the 'train demons' and 'movie demons', they both hate rainy days."
Ke Qirui said calmly, reached into the pocket of his windbreaker, took out a retro one-way mirror, and slowly put it on top of his left eye.
Xu Sanyan took the cigarette out of his mouth, put it out with his fingers, and then said lightly:
"So... that's why I said your Sky Drive is weird. It's clearly a Sky Drive that can 'seal and control demons', but it depends on the demon's mood. Isn't that a contradiction?"
"Xu Sanyan, stop gossiping at a time like this." Lin Zhengquan sighed, "These people are not easy to mess with."
"Maimai, can you still move?"
Ke Qirui asked softly, turned her head to look at Su Zimai, raised her hand and touched the deerstalker hat that had just been worn on her head.
Su Zimai was silent for a moment, his lips moving slightly: "Well... I can still move."
"That's good... Watch out, this will be the first time you see us take real action after joining the Ghost Train Group."
Ke Qirui said calmly, looking away from her face and looking at the four people in the brigade.
Su Zimai hesitated for a while and nodded gently.
She took a deep breath, suppressed her slightly trembling right hand, and stared motionlessly at the four members of the brigade walking slowly towards her.
For some reason, she always felt that Xia Pingzhou's eyes were staring at her from beginning to end, just like a hungry wolf staring at its target, which made her shudder.
