Chapter 456: Thousands of people go to the demon-slaying sword! (7.4K))
This night is destined to be uneventful for Kyoto.
It's not just the big shots who are uneasy.
Even though there was no fierce head-on collision in the underground chase between two ninth-level god-level men, the immediate aftermath still caused extremely serious damage to the sewer pipes.
At the same time, various buildings on the ground in Kyoto also felt earthquakes of various sizes in this silent night, and some buildings on the ground even tilted.
When had such a thing happened to the heavenly nobles who went to Beijing? Some of them turned on the TV and saw the live broadcast of this scene, and they angrily cursed the man in the clown mask who disturbed his dream to die.
Due to various historical reasons, the Adjudication Division is not so popular in the eyes of the Celestial Nobles in Kyoto City.
But at this moment, the Second Judgment Commander Pousso Wiseman, who was hanging behind Higashinohara and chasing after him, was actually popular. Almost all the citizens of Shangjing were praying for him to deal with that damn clown masked man as soon as possible.
Naturally, Higashinohara didn't know that the aftermath of several collisions between him and the man behind him in the underground waterway late at night aroused the anger of some heavenly nobles on the ground.
Now almost everyone watching this rare "live capture" in front of the TV wishes that he would die soon.
That may not be accurate.
At least in Meiji Mansion, which is across the water from Shangjing, there are still some people silently praying for him.
But these are not what Higashinohara is concerned about right now.
It's three o'clock in the morning now.
At this moment, he was holding a knife in his hand.
His fifth knife.
That's right, before that, Higashinohara had been overtaken by the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman four times before, and each time he paid the price with a sword.
Until now,
Of the seven swords that Kamado Tanjuro gave him as a farewell gift last night, he only had three left including this one in his hand.
It means he still has three chances.
Once the opponent gets close to him three more times, Higashinohara will no longer have any weapons in his hands.
The only good thing is that
When Higashinohara blasted open the sewer wall again about half an hour ago and fled, he took advantage of the cover of darkness to put down Little Will on his back who was leading the way for him.
The reason for this is that on the one hand, with a child on your back, you are always a little constrained;
On the other hand, little Will was very worried about the safety of his mother and brother after hearing what the other party said late last night.
Higashinohara could not return to the underground world immediately, so he could only drop Little Will, who was familiar with the road, nearby and told him to be careful before returning.
It was at that time, with a short pause, that Higashinohara broke the fourth sword he was holding.
Fortunately, Puso Wiseman's attention was all on Higashinohara, and he didn't notice that the little guy behind him was missing at first.
When you react,
With the speed of Higashinohara's "Dragon of Candlelight" at 23 times speed and the speed of the first layer of "Quicksand Scales" simulated by Puso Wiseman's "Unscrupulous Forms" behind him, the two of them had already moved along in the blink of an eye.
It flew several miles along the sewer pipe.
But the only person he wants to kill tonight is Higashinohara.
Even Dorothy Alita, who fled to the sewers of Baling County, was only left to her subordinates to pursue her, and she had no time to take care of it. How could she care about an insignificant little underground rat.
"Haven't you noticed yet?"
Pusho Wiseman, who was following closely, stared at the stubborn Higashinohara in front of him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "From the moment you met me, there was no option to escape.
"
Higashinohara, who was whipping up a gust of wind in the sewer, looked back at the other party!
Looking at each other through the masks, without much confusion, they turned around and ran away again without saying a word.
Upon seeing this, Puso Wiseman flashed a trace of sarcasm in his eyes, as if to break down Higashinohara's inner defense, and continued to say to him unhurriedly, "Honestly, I don't think this plan is perfect.
Everything we did tonight was to buy more time for that woman, wasn't it?
I really don’t know whether I should lament your infatuation or your stupidity, a human being turned into a mixed-race mongrel.”
Whoosh!
Just when Puso Wiseman opened his mouth again, a glimmer of light suddenly tore through the dark sewer, peeling away from Higashinohara's running figure and flying towards Pusuo Wiseman's throat.
Come plundered.
This scene looks at the visual effects.
It seemed that Higashinohara's figure was still flying forward, as if due to the effect of inertia, but a shadow like a clone appeared behind him and struck in the opposite direction.
That's not an afterimage.
There will be no afterimage in this state.
The reason why.
Just for one reason.
Higashinohara's speed is too fast.
[Dragon of Candlelight] Twenty-four times speed!
It’s so fast that the afterimage has become inertial!
To know,
Although Higashinohara's limit speed in the last battle with Puso Wiseman at White Swan Port was 23 times, his [Agility] attribute at that time did not exceed the 200-point mark.
And yesterday at noon at the World Bank Building, when he faced Yavuz Bart, who had just entered the 95th realm, his [agility] attribute exceeded the 200-point mark. At one point, his speed soared to 25 times the speed of Quicksand Scale.
now,
Of course he didn't reveal his trump card.
However, this sudden doubling of [Dragon of Candlelight. Twenty-four times speed] still caused his shadow to show terrifying inertia?
This led to the current scene.
At that extreme speed that surpassed light and fire, the Second Judgment made Puso Wiseman feel a slight chill on his cheeks, and he seemed to smell a very slight smell of blood on the tip of his nose. Immediately, his face suddenly darkened.
!
A very slight sound sounded.
"I didn't expect that if something is missing, your personality will become as noisy as a woman's.
That’s really sorry.”
Those words were like sparks thrown into a barrel of dynamite.
Zheng—!
The demon sword [Murasame Maru] half lifted by Puso Wiseman was obviously a beat slower, but the moment his face suddenly darkened, it suddenly disappeared from the place, and the next moment there was an explosion of Jin Ge in his ears.
The sound of clashing.
The fifth sharp knife in Higashinohara's hand.
Almost at the moment when the dark red sword light filled the field of vision, it suddenly broke cleanly from the middle again!
This knife has not yet completely castrated it,
Lifting Higashinohara's chin straight up, it looked like he was trying to split his head in half from the middle.
The next moment,
The dark red sword light cut everything apart.
The wet arched wall of the sewer overhead trembled, and countless concrete and bricks suddenly collapsed in large areas, and were immediately swept away in all directions by a violent and invisible force.
Puso Wiseman raised his head and squinted his eyes slightly. In front of him, Higashinohara reappeared at the place where his figure had just peeled off, still maintaining the movement of flying forward.
If it weren't for the slight cut on his cheek and the half-cut blade the opponent was holding, everything just now would have been like an illusion that didn't exist.
Go against the current. Get away!
Time is not about how much you have,
It's about how you use it.
As long as a "wave" splashes in the endless river of time, it can appear at any time where the "wave" splashes.
At that time and that moment,
Exactly at this moment.
Didn’t Puso Wiseman face the speed system rules that are close to the time and space system [Countercurrent. Xiaoyaoyou] that Higashinohara realized for the first time?
But the last realization was too painful.
It broke our hearts.
Until this time,
Only then did he see this scene completely.
"Is that so?"
The second ruling made Pousso Wiseman lower his gaze slightly and murmured to himself.
Immediately, he showed an expression that was half-smiling to Higashinohara, and said in an increasingly lower tone, "To be honest, the sweetness of your 'fruit' has exceeded my expectations, and it makes me more and more fond of you."
The more I look forward to the sweet and fragrant aroma when I bite into it.”
Higashinohara learned from Dorothy Alita that the man in front of him had awakened the talent sequence 18 purple epic ability [Infinite Aspects], which made him develop a habit of treating goals as fruits.
He knows what this means.
as expected.
The next second, the corners of Higashinohara's eyes were suddenly filled with flashes of light.
There was clearly only one enemy directly behind him, but at this moment, except for the road ahead, he felt like he was surrounded on all sides.
Higashinohara understood instantly.
This man, who could even imitate the order of Empress Dorothy Alita, finally discovered the secret hidden in his speed.
can do this.
It’s not that the [Unscrupulous Appearance] with talent sequence 18 is so perverted, it can copy other people’s abilities while also being able to peek into other people’s domains, rules and even order.
I have to say is
No matter how detestable and disgusting this man is, there is no denying that the man hanging behind Higashinohara is too strong!
Too perverted!
Even without relying on the favor of a lucky woman like his innate ability, Puso Wiseman could discern the secrets of ordinary opponents' abilities simply by relying on the [Flow of Mind] technique that he had mastered with a monster-like talent.
The skills are close to the Tao.
I'm afraid it's nothing more than that.
Think about it the other way around,
If it weren't for such a demonic talent
In the eyes of the Shangjing Celestial nobles, a human being who is full of humble blood,
How could it be possible to be under one person in the Kyoto metropolitan area, in a place like the Adjudication Department where there are so many talented people?
These thoughts flashed through Higashinohara's mind instantly, his lips pursed tightly, and the look on his face became more solemn.
He knew that the man behind him was definitely the most powerful enemy he had ever faced since he came to this world.
Especially the battle at White Swan Harbor,
After losing something, the corner of his mouth that was always filled with madness and murderous intent was now filled with a hint of evil and madness. It was as if some kind of restraint had been removed, and the strength he displayed at this moment was even greater than before!
Higashinohara held a large knife in his hand and walked quickly, feeling the strong pressure behind him that suddenly hit from different angles from time to time, and quickly changed directions and the landing point of his feet in the sewer.
And every time he changes,
A dark red knife light flashed at every point where he landed on his previous route, and the hard sewer wall suddenly collapsed like tofu.
"No chance.
I said, there is no chance."
After perfectly reproducing Higashinohara's "Countercurrent. Xiaoyaoyou", Puso Wiseman's voice began to become a little erratic, and his tone was full of joking,
"How many knives do you have? How many more knives can you block from me? Do you really think you can escape from Shangjing?"
Of course, what he said was not true, as Higashinohara said, something was missing from his body, and his personality began to become more verbose.
On the contrary,
Puso Wiseman is enjoying the oppressive feeling brought by words to the other party, enjoying Higashinohara's increasingly tense nerves, and enjoying the fun of "picking" before receiving the goods.
Higashinohara knew the other party's plan very well.
Holding the sixth knife in his hand, he pursed his lips and continued running wildly without saying a word.
Of course he didn't plan to escape from Beijing like this.
In fact,
He kept looking at the time with minute steps.
It's half past four in the morning.
There is still half an hour before the agreed time. Fortunately, the blessing of [Guilty Manual] has entered the "stagnant state" of his newly added title function after the night's counter-hunting, which occurs every seventy-two hours. In the remaining time, he has to
Stay when you need it most.
At this moment, Higashinohara's nerves were extremely tense!
Although the man was chasing after him, he could at least tell from what he said midway that some of the black-robed men from the Adjudication Department went in two groups to the underground refugee settlements in the upper Kyoto area.
That underground world, Rat City.
The integrity of the Kamomen Sword Forging Clan is unquestionable.
Kamado Tanjuro's character was not to mention. He was very sure that the other party had not slept a wink that night and was going all out to forge the twelve skills of Kyoto's supreme sword into one.
But what Higashinohara cannot be sure about is
If the man behind the Adjudication Division really said that the underground refugee gathering place in the center of Kyoto has been cleaned, can Kamado Tanjuro complete the recasting as scheduled?
If the answer is no.
Then he is approaching that place now,
What greeted him was the overwhelming black-robed execution team of the Adjudication Department and the people from the Security Office. It didn't make much difference to say that he had fallen into a trap by himself.
For a moment,
Higashinohara's heart was shaken.
But when he glanced at the demon sword [Murasame Maru] of the man behind him, which was "breakable at the touch of a touch", he couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.
The man behind him who kept attacking his heart was trying to shake his belief in fighting.
But at least one thing is right.
——That was this underground encounter. From the beginning, Higashinohara had no choice.
Not to mention such "distant" things as victory in battle, just to have the strength to fight when facing the man behind him, he must retrieve the twelve-in-one supreme weapon that has been recast.
Big sharp knife.
Thinking of this, Higashinohara no longer hesitated, and immediately accelerated his feet and slashed the sewer wall next to him!
In the next moment, he followed the countless rubbles and crossed into another road. He found the direction in his memory and once again pulled out countless afterimages.
In an instant, Puso Wiseman appeared at the entrance of the cave and looked at Higashinohara's back. He seemed to have guessed something, and a slightly ironic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Still hoping to blend in with the crowd?
What a .
He's the guy who won't cry until he sees the coffin.
But this is fine
This time, he had to fully appreciate the other person's despair after seeing hope, in order to release everything he had endured during this period.
4:57 am.
There was a frightened silence in the dark sewer. Spark, the "big rat" bald man who had met Higashinohara last night, turned his gaze slightly sideways, looking at the ground diagonally opposite from the reflection of a piece of broken glass with a gloomy face.
There were intense flames in the passage and desperate cries for help.
gradually,
There was an inexplicable sadness on his face!
Or to be more precise,
It’s a kind of sadness and anger!
Although these refugees are lowly,
But they are also "tenants" within the jurisdiction of this big rat, and everyone is his private property.
But now,
He was lucky enough to escape and hid in a hurry,
But he could only watch helplessly as the land he finally grabbed and the untouchable tenants who paid him every month were slaughtered and howled continuously!
In fact, not only him, but also several followers following him had a look of deep sadness in their eyes at this time.
Why do you feel at a loss?
Just like the weak will always swing a knife at the weaker, humans also always like to find confidence and comfort in people who are more miserable than themselves.
——Those untouchables who were once trampled under their feet are dead, does that mean that even if they survive tomorrow, they will naturally become the people they were once stepped on?
However, just when these big rats were hiding in the corner and lingering.
Suddenly, a small figure walked through the darkness, passed by them before they could recover, and rushed into the sewer that was exuding strong firelight and black smoke.
who is it?!
"It's the boy from last night."
"Will?"
"Yes, it's him."
"He's back at this time?"
"Is this little thing crazy?"
"."
Seeing the weak figure rushing into the firelight and thick smoke, the "big rats" suddenly fell silent.
They probably guessed why the other party rushed back so desperately.
because of family
They also have families.
But they who were lucky enough to escape the disaster lowered their heads deeply at this moment. No one dared to look up again to look at the weak figure that disappeared into the light of the fire without ever returning.
"Mom! Brother!"
In the billowing smoke, Little Will crawled close to the edge of the sewer. With his eyes wide open, he saw figures in black robes shaking in front of him.
Even after hearing Puso Wiseman's words, Little Will had already been mentally prepared, but the bloody and broken half of his body he saw when he crawled over still made him breathe quickly.
But he didn't stop.
After identifying the direction, we still walked through the billowing smoke from the ground towards the "home" location in our memory.
slowly,
Creeping cautiously.
He didn't know how long he had been climbing.
finally
Finally close.
Little Will looked at the narrow sewer opening with a greasy gray curtain in front of him, feeling uneasy for no reason in his heart.
He was very afraid, afraid that when he opened the familiar curtain, it would be empty inside.
However, no matter how scared I am.
Eleven-year-old Will knew that since his father was killed in a sewer flood, he, as the breadwinner of the family, would have to bear all this.
"Mom, brother, I'm here to save you!"
Little Will finally crawled to the small sewer and opened the gray curtain with trembling arms.
The picture that was printed in front of him made his body stiffen slightly, and there was an empty coldness all over his body.
The partition dividing the upper and lower floors has been roughly cut open. The lower bunk no longer hears the voice of the mother who is usually bedridden, and the upper bunk no longer has the little brother who can play happily just by arranging broken dishes and chopsticks in a row.
.
The small sewer was empty.
Nothing at all.
Just like Little Will's heart.
His lips trembled, as if he was about to cry, but he had not cried since his father's death. He pursed his lips and stubbornly held back.
Finally, I cried.
However, at this moment,
At the innermost part of the partition, a piece of black cloth suddenly moved, and immediately a dark head popped out.
Little Will suddenly looked startled,
As if his whole body was hit by great joy, he rushed forward and hugged his brother.
"Brother!" The five or six-year-old younger brother cried and shouted tremblingly.
"It's okay! It's okay!"
Little Will stroked his younger brother's back to comfort him, looked around, and his heart gradually sank.
"Mom. Mom was dragged away by those people in black clothes. She asked me to hide. I don't know what to do, wuwu," the child cried with a trembling voice.
Little Will's heart finally sank completely. He lowered his head slightly and leaned on his brother's shoulder, clenching his fists tightly.
Why?!
Why is this happening!
I have obviously earned the rent I owe!
Mother's medicine money is enough.
I can even buy my brother a pair of shoes.
why is this happening
"Eh?" Suddenly, someone lifted up the gray curtain, and there was a soft squeaking sound.
"Haha, I didn't expect that following the little mouse that sneaked in would lead to extra gains." A woman in black robe held a sharp knife stained with stinky blood and picked up the curtain, smiling at the pity that she was covered in mud and water.
Little Will.
Suddenly, her expression became a little disgusted, "I asked how that woman is not afraid of death. So there is a missed little mouse hidden here."
At this moment, the female judge's eyes did not seem to be looking at the same kind of people.
That's right, the two dirty little boys hugging each other at this moment were in front of the female black-robed judge who was still dripping with blood even after countless limbs were cut off.
They are indeed no different from two dirty and ugly rats in the sewer.
So she took a step forward,
He handed over the knife holding the curtain in his hand.
However, in the next moment,
The knife stopped.
laugh-!
The woman lowered her head and glanced at the blade, through the reflection of the shimmering blade.
She saw what she looked like!
Blood!
There's blood everywhere!
Her abdomen, which was originally clean and free of blood, was cut open with a huge bloody opening at some point, and the dirty organs and intestines were poured out all over her body like garbage!
The woman's figure was shaken with astonishment on her face, and she fell to the ground.
Not only that.
Tear-!
Accompanied by a terrifying howl!
Like a hot knife cutting through cheese.
The walls on both sides of the entire row of sewers were completely torn apart by a sword light dragging two waves of blue and light gold flames.
torn with it,
There was also the black-robed enforcer who stood outside for a second and had enough time to look at the remaining untouchables to be slaughtered.
It's like a photo being torn apart.
Without exception, the black-robed executioners outside were cut into two sections by these two knives.
Immediately, it was burned by the extremely hot heat wave into two pieces of "charcoal" that fell to the ground.
This person holding two swords and carrying a torrent of flames was naturally the one who had been running along the perimeter for nearly five hundred miles all night long to attack Higashinohara.
These two knives in his hand.
They are also his last two knives.
However, at that moment when the two knives pulling the unparalleled wave of flames swept through the passage, in the narrow sewer, little Will, who was hugging his young brother tightly, suddenly looked up!
Through the suddenly turbulent gray curtain, Little Will's field of vision was filled with a large dark red glimmer, and his eyes suddenly shrank!
I saw the two knives in the hands of the masked gentleman who followed him last night, suddenly and without warning, broke into two pieces in the middle!
The next moment,
It's like being hit head-on by a car!
After Higashinohara's words, the figure suddenly flew backwards in a certain direction, piercing through several partitions along the way, and finally tore a curtain and slammed into a sewer hole.
Boom!
Like something was knocked over,
A strong fire flashed and disappeared.
Little Will stared blankly at the twists and turns outside. His mind was in a state of confusion and he had no idea what was happening.
When his eyes finally followed the figure and landed on the sewer hole, he suddenly realized something.
That sewer is
"Tonight, you will bleed the last drop of blood in my hands!"
The second judge, Puso Wiseman, who was wearing a large black robe, stood in the smoke and fire, holding a large dark red knife, and the smile on his lips became more and more fanatical.
"As I said, there is no point in running away or resisting. You can't outrun my speed, and you don't have any weapons worthy of a fight."
Time seems to have passed a long time.
And it seems like only a moment.
"Then try again."
From the sewer opening where the gray curtain was swaying in the firelight, a faint voice, neither light nor heavy, suddenly came.
The second verdict made Puso Wiseman suddenly look up, only to see a vague figure emerging from the flickering firelight at the entrance of the cave!
A knife appeared in Higashinohara's hand.
The next second, an oval vacuum zone suddenly appeared in the flames behind him.
The partitions and all obstructions that had just been shattered in front of them were suddenly lifted and exploded on both sides as if by an invisible big hand. Even the air between the two people seemed to be overwhelmed and let out a series of rolling sounds.
burst!
This weird scene suddenly made countless people’s eyes widen!
The second verdict made Puso Wiseman's heart suddenly tighten, and he felt a completely different speed than when he was chasing him just now!
His eyes suddenly condensed!
This guy.
Did you just slow down?!
court death!!!
Between the electric light and the dew,
Pusho Wiseman suddenly raised the sharp knife in his hand as fast as lightning, and slashed it into the empty air in front of him without any hesitation!
At this moment, his eyes were shining,
But it is an indomitable and crazy intention that vows to cut the opponent with the knife and the person together!
Clang—!
However, the next moment,
A deafening Jin Ge clash exploded!
Invisible shock waves swept away in all directions, and the ground beneath their feet shook slightly for an instant. The people in the center of Kyoto above finally felt the strongest "shock" of this sleepless night!
This is impossible!!!
The second verdict with a sinister look on his face made Pousso Wiseman narrow his eyes and stare at the sword in Higashinohara's hand that seemed to have just been cast and was filled with a strong and pungent tempered water vapor. It didn't even have a blade.
An unpretentious and sharp knife.
Even so, the lustrous black light on the blade inexplicably makes people tremble like a dragon lurking out of the abyss, silently declaring that this sharp knife is definitely the ultimate weapon for life and death!
next moment,
The blue fireworks flow and dissipate!
vaguely,
A line of sword inscriptions that looked like shadow sculptures appeared on the handle of the sword near Higashinohara's wrist.
Three words are vaguely visible.
——Lake Toya.
The Twelve Skills of Kyoto's Supreme Sharp Sword.
