Chapter 240-10: Judgment Day
He didn't know when it started, but every time he saw these monsters, Jingquan would smile enthusiastically from the bottom of his heart, even without himself noticing.

Maybe it's because the brain automatically conjures up the image of them suffering pain. The more pain the other person suffers, the happier she feels.

"Death, brilliant as a flower."

The long knife was pulled out of the eye socket, taking out the eyeball. Jingquan dodged the monster baby's hands, each with half an open mouth, and kept some distance. He landed steadily, while paying attention to the monster baby's movements and recovering his strength.

Along with the strange baby's violent screams of pain, a large amount of black water gushed out from its eyeballs. The baby continued to howl, and the ground around it began to tremble. The floor of unrelated areas began to crack inch by inch and continued to extend to the outer circle.

"It can use telekinesis, be careful to defend yourself!"

Tashiro, who had been paying attention the whole time, reminded.

One of the Moon Initiators in the team slapped the ground, and a virtual shield formed in front of him, creating ripples that blocked the destructive thought power that was extending from him, and protected the two companions behind him.

The strange baby stopped twisting, and a large number of tiny spider-shaped monsters crawled out from its dark eye sockets and quickly covered its entire body.

If Guan Junyan was present, he would roughly say that the boss has entered the second stage.

"It hurts! It hurts so much! Let's hurt together!"

The completely covered monster baby rushed straight towards the well that had just caused it the greatest damage, like a flying mosaic or a swarm of flies.

Jingquan was not angry but happy, and rushed forward with a smile.
".Attention, cover Jingquan, adopt the second approach plan."

Everyone is used to the actions of a berserker like Jingquan, and they even created a special combat plan for him.

At the same time, not only the main hall, but also a monster that changes reality and illusion appears at the entrance of the Sanji Hall which Toyokawa is in charge of, and a battle begins.

"Toyokawa Squad, we have engaged the enemy. The target has a strange appearance and does not resemble a physical entity."

Saga, who was in charge of on-site coordination and command, pondered for a few seconds, considering the current situation.

"Uesugi, go support Toyokawa. That monster has the ability to restrain him. After you deal with it, go help Tashiro and the others."

In the Shenmen area, Saga gave orders and arranged all his team members to provide support.

"Captain! Then you here——"

"Follow orders."

"Yes!"

At this time, they did not dare to disobey the order and could only choose to trust the captain with worry, and then rush to support. Fortunately, they were not far away and could even directly see the battle situation over there.

Just ten seconds after they walked away, there was a cracking sound. The void in the center of the Divine Gate shattered, and a bald head the size of an ordinary person emerged from it. After seeing Saga standing not far in front of him, he grinned. The next second, two giant hands that were seriously inconsistent with the size of the head opened a gap, and a torso nearly ten meters tall slowly emerged from it.

All over its body, there were twisted and strange faces, which seemed to be groaning in pain.

The huge foot seemed to step lightly on the ground, but the floor tiles of the shrine, which had been renovated not long ago, began to crack and were scrapped on the spot.

Saga remained calm and stood in front of the monster, as small as a fish in front of its angler.

He reached two fingers into his sleeves, picked out two talismans, and staggered them. The talismans emitted golden light along the lines and flew out one after the other, drawing a perfect circle like a barrier with the Divine Gate as the center, and creating a layer of faint golden light.

"Evil spirits are forbidden to enter this place."

Facing the huge monster in front of him, Saga calmly drew out his long sword. The sharp blade scratched across his palm, leaving a blood mark and wetting the talismans pasted all over the blade. From the guard to the tip of the blade, the blood-stained talismans slowly lit up, and a circle of golden flames ignited at the guard position.

The monster was like a mentally handicapped human, showing both greed and fear towards Saga, and stretched out his hand, trying to test it gently.

Saga stepped directly into the air, golden ripples spread on his feet, and the fire and blade flashed. The huge monster actually had one arm cut off by a face-to-face encounter! In an instant, black water splashed everywhere, and the monster let out a dull cry of pain. The broken arm fell to the ground with a bang, and then twisted and twitched like a gecko with a broken tail, and quickly split into half-human-sized, big-mouthed, eyeless tadpoles with hind legs, frantically and actively attacking the surrounding barriers.

At the broken arm of the monster, the black water gathered into the shape of an arm again, trying to catch Saga who was attacking flexibly, but he could only be flexibly moved by him and stuck one talisman after another on him.

"Lock up the demons and suppress the evil!"

With a clang, the talismans he had just pasted connected to each other and instantly turned into several golden shackles, causing the monster locked in them to let out a shrill roar.

The golden barrier began to swirl and shrink, and the tadpole monster that was just attacking the barrier was crushed into a pool of black water, until the barrier completely enveloped the monster. In an instant, it turned into dense golden ropes, which tightly bound the monster and made it completely unable to move. It fell to the ground with a loud bang, crushing the Shenmen building.

"Huh." Saga landed steadily and sheathed his sword with a little fatigue.

Above, the swarm of drones of the anti-transcendent base vehicle rushed to the scene through the torii gate in front and began to perform their duties according to the preset procedures.

"Shenmen, the monster is under control."

"We've also dealt with the Canji Hall." Fengchuan stopped finishing off the monsters and made sure that the monsters in front of him were dead before reporting.

"In the area of ​​our palace, the monster corpse has not shown any signs of melting. Drones have been arranged for alert." Tadashi looked at the monster corpse, took out a sampler and began to conduct preliminary analysis.

Everything seems to be going well.

However, Noguchi Takeshi did not show any joy. Instead, he looked serious and silently took out his pistol.

Because, right in front of the Soul Summoning Courtyard and the Supreme Prayer Group, a mass of black gas was gathering from all directions. Although it didn't look large in scale, it had already formed an extremely dark area. Just by looking at it, one could have the illusion of staring into a black hole in the abyss, as if countless hands were dragging your soul down little by little, making it difficult to resist and breathe.

Miyaji Sakata and his younger brothers were completely unable to withstand such pressure and fainted at some point.

That’s good. This black fog brings a lot of cold air, so there’s no need to worry about these two people getting heatstroke.

This also proves that what they just dealt with were just small monsters, and the real boss has just appeared.

The black fog gradually dissipated, and a short figure whose body was completely dark and whose face could not be recognized at all was kneeling on the spot. His posture was standard and rigid, and his head was half lowered, as if he was resting with his eyes closed.

Miki Inagaki had a solemn expression on her face and waved her hand gently. The Supreme Prayer Group stopped praying at the same time, stood up and saluted her, then began to retreat. This group of mentally ill people at this moment performed no less well-trained than an army.

"Do you need support from others?" Takeshi Noguchi walked up to her, took off the safety of his gun, and aimed at the black shadow.

Inagaki shook his head: "When dealing with this pure evil spirit, the more people get close, the more variables there will be."

Noguchi believed Inagaki's judgment and ordered Saga to stay on standby.

At this moment, the dark figure opened his eyes silently. His face was still dark, but they could feel that the dark figure was looking directly at them.

"Followers, are you here to welcome my return?"

He asked this question, his rotten and hoarse voice echoing in the empty courtyard. "No, it's to stop it." Inagaki floated in the air, looked at him, and slowly adjusted his state.

"I never thought that the country has become corrupt to such an extent. You have not only betrayed the bloodline, but also betrayed His Majesty. In this case..." The black shadow slowly stood up, and the black air around him swept. The window and door of the Youjiu Pavilion next to him were shattered, and a set of exaggerated samurai armor was swept by the black mist. In the blink of an eye, it was dressed for him. Then the armor was quickly contaminated by the darkness, and underwent strange changes, growing various features of human facial features and limbs.

Along with it came a samurai sword that belonged to someone unknown. The scabbard was turned into powder and was held in his hand. The black hand stroked the blade, and the black air engulfed the blade, which was originally glowing silver, like mycelium, turning it the same dark black as his body.

".I will take it upon myself to clear the emperor's side and welcome the old master."

The black flame expanded rapidly, and behind it, a hideous demonic face seemed to appear.

Inagaki formed a triangle with her hands, with her eyes, the circle in her hands, and the warrior connected in a straight line. As her palms pressed inward, the warrior's body suddenly sank, and the black flame that seemed like a raging fire just now shrank to the size of a gas stove in an instant.

The warrior remained silent and slowly straightened his bent back. The movements of his hands could not be seen clearly, but one could see the long sword sweeping across, leaving a black blade mark shooting up into the sky and cutting the air.

Miki Inagaki groaned, and her hands drew several bloody marks out of thin air. The pressure that had just been gathered also dissipated instantly.

The warrior regained his black flame, spread his black wings, and was about to pursue the victory.

"I sentence you to death and execute you immediately."

Noguchi held the gun in one hand and activated [Presumption of Guilt]. A huge force was instantly added to Noguchi. The ordinary bullets fired from the muzzle actually tore through pieces of the samurai's armor and even caused damage to his body.

With a wave of his hand, the [Evidence] that only he could see was collected. What flashed through his mind was the flames of war, the crazy faces, the terrified heads of the dead. The whole world was black and white and thick blood. All around him were pools of blood, some of which were still making gurgling sounds. He looked in a trance and saw heads with wide eyes suddenly floating up from the pools, one after another, without exception, staring at him, as if it was a silent curse.

"It seems that the death penalty is not enough to offset your sins."

"It's ridiculous. It's just that the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits." The samurai seemed to know what Noguchi saw, and there was a smile in his tone, "However, people always yearn for my return. Even hell can't hold me back--"

Noguchi fired a few more bullets, interrupting his words.

"Then please go down again."

The samurai stopped talking, spread his wings, and flew past, engaging in a fight with Noguchi. The latter's pistol broke into two pieces, and even his sleeves were torn off.

The opponent turned around and rushed towards Noguchi again, and everything happened in a flash.

Noguchi raised his hand and a big wooden hammer appeared out of thin air. Noguchi held the hammer with both hands and smashed it at the samurai who was rushing towards him.

There was a clanging sound, and the warrior held on for a few seconds before flying backwards and smashing through the building.

"Attacking a judge is a more serious crime." Noguchi said with narrowed eyes, holding the hammer.

Without a moment's pause, the warrior flew out from the ruins, his body suddenly expanded, and the armor on his body became more and more distorted and grotesque: "You, are not qualified to judge me! No one is qualified! I..."

"What crime have you committed?"

The samurai rolled up a large amount of air flow, like a black tornado, bringing destruction along the way until Noguchi was also swept into it.

"We, on the road to glory!"

".That is the abyss."

"So what? Those who go against the will of the group must die!"

The warrior changed from his previous calm and composed attitude, and his attack methods became more and more crazy.

Noguchi only had the advantage at the beginning, but gradually became powerless and was madly suppressed. He could not provide more evidence to continue to strengthen himself.

He knew that Inagaki would not be slacking off, and was probably working on his ultimate move, so, was his ultimate move ready?! Otherwise, he would die here!

During the breathless fight, Noguchi discovered that the samurai's movements seemed to be gradually slowing down, and even the black flames on his body were disappearing.

He took the opportunity to fight back, took out a piece of evidence, and quickly distanced himself with coldness and frost all over his body. He just exhaled two breaths of cold air and soon felt the warmth again.

I took the time to look at the sky and found that the sunlight had become extremely hot at some point.

No. It should be said that Guang took the initiative to surround them!

In the sky, with the strength and manipulation of Miki Inagaki, a large amount of light appeared like dancing elves, surrounding the warriors in a circle and constantly increasing in intensity.

The samurai's movements became slower and slower. Even if he knew where the problem lay, it seemed too late to stop Inagaki.

Seeing this, Noguchi regrouped, took a deep breath, rushed forward and fought for several rounds. When he found the right opportunity, he smashed the sword and arm in the samurai's hand with a hammer, then stripped off his armor, looked at his weak shadow, picked up the evidence, and initiated the final trial.

".We are buried deep here, rooted in people's hearts. What you do is in vain. Kill me, and there is still..."

Boom!
The warrior was completely smashed to pieces, and his remains turned into a pool of black water, slowly flowing into the ground under the courtyard. Who knows how many equally sinful or even more terrifying souls there are beneath it.

"Then if one comes, I'll kill one." Noguchi put away his hammer and crushed the helmet that had been completely contaminated and had eyeballs growing on it. "If there are a million, I'll kill a million."

Inagaki's face turned pale, and he nodded to Noguchi, expressing his approval of the fight he had just fought.

"Just tell me, what conclusion did you come to?"

Noguchi was not an impatient person, but he was eager to know the answer to this question.

Miki Inagaki did not avoid the question and looked around: "This is the worst result I predicted."

"The monster just now was just a half-finished product of the Mother Goddess's integration. But even if we want to stop it now, I'm afraid we will have to pay a very heavy price."

"But if we continue to let this go, it will eventually lead to a consequence that none of us can bear."

"Is it unbearable? Is it the eruption of Mount Fuji, the desertification of the whole country, or..." Noguchi looked at the land beneath his feet thoughtfully.

Miki Inagaki didn't look like she was joking. She never liked joking and rarely mentioned things she was not sure about to outsiders.

"Yes, the worst possible outcome is that Japan sinks."

"This land will be restructured by the plates, or pulled under the mantle and turned into magma, or it will experience large-scale volcanic lava eruptions and re-form land, but all of this will have nothing to do with us."

"Because, that will be our day of judgment."
