The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 268: Halloween Carnival Night (13)

With the help of the army of heroes, the aura around Qian Xiaoyi finally no longer interfered with his perception, allowing Qian Xiaoyi to clearly see the surrounding situation.

So, Qian Xiaoyi began to lead everyone to charge forward and attack the area where the token might exist.

“Guys! Follow me, we’re going over there!” Qian Xiaoyi waved his arm. The heroes didn’t react at first. The host Nojiri received instructions from Director Tamura, his eyes lit up, and he said, “Oh, Mr. Tiga seems to have discovered something, let’s follow him!”

Then he followed with the cameraman.

Seeing that Nojiri, the leader, had left, the rest of the people followed without knowing why.

"Found the target!" Qian Xiaoyi saw traces of illusions there and immediately started a battle with them, and the heroes naturally followed.

As the noise was going on, one of the people here suddenly got a Death Token from the enemy. He excitedly held up the Tarot card and shouted, "Oh oh oh oh!!! It's a token! I got the token!"

The people around them were full of envy. After the activity started, they found that there were two ways to get the token. One was to pretend to be a ghost and let others come to them. The other was to find the bearer of the token and then initiate interaction.

Before, because there were too many ghosts, they were all surrounded and fought, and the first method was not available to them, so the probability of obtaining the token was too small. Until now, some of them got the token, although it was only the [Death] Tarot card revealed in the first round, it was enough to make people happy.

Faced with this situation, Qian Xiaoyi smiled and said: How can I lead the team without giving some sweet benefits?
"The token here has been found, let's go to the other side!" Qian Xiaoyi shouted.

"Oh!!!"

The heroes responded in unison, and they gradually understood. Was Tiga actually leading them to find the token? This was amazing. Could he be a staff member of "Supernatural Fantasy Night" and was afraid that they couldn't find the token, so he came to let them go?

What happened next verified their guess. In the places where Qian Xiaoyi had led them, tokens were constantly being sent out, which made them more determined to "follow Tiga."

It is now close to 11 o'clock in the evening. Because of the tram operating hours, many people choose to go home before the tram stops running completely, making Shibuya much emptier from its previous crowded state. However, there are still many people wandering the streets partying.

Qian Xiaoyi was very proud when he helped this group of people find another [Devil] token. Now they were stable and the team should not be dispersed so easily, allowing him to resist the influence of the chaotic aura here.

As for how much prize money he can get, Qian Xiaoyi actually doesn't care. It is unrealistic for one person to get so much prize money. From the very beginning, the goal of him and the "Horror Night GO" program crew was to capture the popularity brought by the other party's activities and collect filming materials. Now they have achieved three quarters of their goal.

"Is there only one round left?" Qian Xiaoyi and others stopped under the department store building, looking up at the display screen, waiting for the last round of tarot cards to be revealed. Only when Anna pronounced the name of that tarot card, the aura of the token would appear.

Qian Xiaoyi thought: "The first stage [Death] is a ghost related to death, which is to expand cognition and pave the way for illusions. The second stage [Demon] is a ghost related to desire. This stage materializes the illusion in the mind of the psychic. [Hidden] is a ghost related to self-cognition, which represents the beginning of invading the self-cognition of the psychic... So what will be the final stage?"

Thinking of this, Qian Xiaoyi actually began to feel a little excited. In front of him, he had an army of heroes and a crowd of people at his disposal. No matter what changes occurred in the aura or what illusions appeared, he could use this "army" to overcome all obstacles. Naturally, he was full of confidence.

Two minutes later, the image on the advertising screen appeared as expected, and Anna appeared in front of everyone again. Everyone looked at her expectantly, waiting for the last tarot card to be revealed.

"Congratulations! You have overcome death, resisted desire, and recognized your own existence. In the end, you will face the most difficult challenge. If you can overcome this challenge, then I will acknowledge your strength and personally offer you my blessing..."

Listening to Anna's words, everyone was extremely excited. Finally, the grand prize was theirs. But Qian Xiaoyi had a strange look on his face. To others, this sentence didn't mean anything else, it was just a mysterious statement. But to Qian Xiaoyi, the meaning of this sentence was like...

——As long as you can stand till the end of this duel, I will admit defeat to you.

Anna opened her red lips slightly, reached out her hand, and turned over the last tarot card on the table.

It was a tall stone tower. A bolt of lightning struck the top of the tower and knocked off the crown on top of the tower.

The face of this card occupied the entire screen, bringing an ominous atmosphere that was completely different from the previous one. The moment this card appeared, Qian Xiaoyi felt a chill and got goose bumps on his arms, as if something was spying on him.

"Hallucination... No, it's something else!" Qian Xiaoyi immediately became alert. This time it was different from an illusion. A real thing was coming.

"This is your fate, the fate I predicted for you." Anna said, "The crown falling from the sky is also a symbol of destruction. Life is like this. No matter what kind of achievements you make, they are still not worth mentioning under fate. Fate is so ruthless, but perhaps, you can find a glimmer of hope from the destruction of this fate?"

The screen jumped back to the advertisement, and Anna's words made everyone a little confused. What was going on?

"Final declaration of war...?" Qian Xiaoyi was thinking, when suddenly, his phone vibrated.

"This is Mary, I'm here at the station now."

He said one sentence and then hung up.

Two seconds later, the phone automatically connected and the voice said, "This is Mary. We have arrived at the Hachiko statue."

"here it is……"

Qian Xiaoyi put away his phone and looked in a certain direction. In the fog, the figure of a toy doll was looming. He knew that this was an urban legend named "Miss Mary". Miss Mary would keep calling to report her location until she arrived in front of the target.

But this is not the end. Qian Xiaoyi turned his head again, and a short figure appeared in the fog on the other side. She slowly walked out of the fog. She looked like a little girl in white clothes and red skirt, staring at Qian Xiaoyi with dry eyes.

An aura that could not be ignored also came from other directions. Qian Xiaoyi already knew the type of the last ghost.

——Urban legend.

Even more unfortunate is that he needs to face the real thing.
