The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 855 The Beginning of the War (34)

"Ah! Don't come over here! Takuya, are you okay?"

A shrill scream rang out in the endless darkness. Suzuna, pale with fright, hid behind Inuyama Heita, while Inuyama Heita faced a smiling guard breathlessly.

Behind them, Takuya was already kneeling on the ground, holding his stomach and groaning weakly. Just now, after a fierce chase, everyone was about to be surrounded by the enemy. Terao Iku took advantage of the brainless nature of these guards and took the initiative to lure an enemy away, opening up a path for them.

But the good times didn't last long. Just when the remaining three thought they had escaped, another enemy suddenly appeared in front of Suzuna in the darkness and launched an attack.

Takuya pulled Suzuna away. He had a Noh mask on his face and wanted to fight the opponent head-on, but he was hit in the abdomen by a punch. He flew out as if he was hit by a battering ram and fell to the ground, unable to stand up after fighting.

"Terrible power!" The Noh mask fell to the side with a look of shock: "Mr. Kousaka, I'm very sorry, this is not a character I can deal with. I wish you all good luck in martial arts." Then the existence on the mask went offline.

Takuya felt unbearable pain. If this were reality, with such a huge force, Takuya would probably break all the bones in his body and faint. However, this was the ghost town, and even if his body fainted, his consciousness was still here.

"The spell... is completely useless..." Takuya said in pain as he knelt on the ground.

"Takuya!" Suzuna screamed and came to him to check on him.

Inuyama Heita's expression was solemn. He guessed that Takuya might have been pushed down the stairs by the Royal Guards in reality, which was why he showed such great power in the ghost realm.

At this time, Inuyama Heita was like an old hen protecting her cubs. He stood in front of the two men, took a boxing stance, and waited for the enemy to launch an attack.

He observed the enemy's movements and kept thinking of countermeasures in his mind: "Fortunately, these guys don't seem to have any reason, otherwise we would be doomed... But it's also true that except for lunatics, no one can maintain the current state like them - not only can they not be harmed by spells in the ghost realm, but can also attack the enemy directly from reality. It's too unreasonable!"

If the opponent had been smarter, Inuyama Heita and his men would not have survived until now, but it was obvious that these guards could only do some simple thinking. After all, if the enemy used skills like flashing in the ghost realm, Inuyama Heita would definitely not be able to stop him, but the opponent did not.

His attention was completely drawn to himself in front of him. He would only attack the enemies in front of him, with the attention span of a baby.

"This is probably the price of maintaining this state." Inuyama Heita thought to himself, "They can only achieve this state if they don't think. How much mental torture must these guys have suffered to become like this... Here they come!"

Even if it was only a little bit, Inuyama Heita, as a cognitive person, could still feel some movements in reality. He took a defensive posture, and the next second, a huge force immediately hit his arm.

"It hurts! But I blocked it!" Inuyama Heita grinned and took a few steps back, feeling somewhat happy inside. Since the opponent's thinking ability was too weak, his attack method was very simple and he didn't have any fancy offensive means. As long as he put on a defensive posture in reality, he would have a high probability of blocking the attack.

The guard looked at his fist in confusion, not understanding why this punch did not directly knock the psychics away like usual.

"He actually blocked it!" Ling Na was ecstatic when she saw this scene: "I knew you had a way!"

Inuyama Heita took a deep breath and his eyes brightened: "It works! I know how to defeat the enemy. Now it's my turn!"

As long as I can control my real body to move, I can just punch it!

Theoretically, this is possible! He knew that people who entered the ghost realm might fall into a sleepwalking state in reality. At this time, because their consciousness was in the ghost realm, their movements could not be controlled.

After entering the ghost realm, the psychic's body may remain motionless with dull eyes, or may perform some unconscious strange actions under the influence of the scene in the ghost realm. What Inuyama Heita needs to do is to synchronize his consciousness with the real body. He has just successfully made his real self take defensive actions, so there is no reason why he can't do it now!
"Go to hell!" Inuyama Heita was so angry that he punched the enemy in the face. He could feel that he was also moving in reality! The special training of the cognitive school was not in vain!
With a dull thud, Inuyama Heita hit the opponent's face, but it was like hitting a stone. Not only did he fail to repel the enemy, but it made his own hand hurt terribly.

"What's going on? Could it be that... I didn't hit the opponent's body at all?" Inuyama Heita thought of a possibility, that is, his body in reality did move, but the enemy's position was not based on the position in the ghost realm at all. It is possible that he just punched the wall.

The guard did not hesitate. He grabbed Inuyama Heita's hand with a smile and threw it away.

"Wow!" Inuyama Heita bumped into Suzuna and used her as a cushion to knock her to the ground.

"It hurts, it hurts... Eh? It doesn't seem to hurt that much?" Suzuna thought she was going to get badly hurt from the fall, but in fact she didn't feel anything. Instead, she felt soft underneath.

"Because it's me who's in pain..." Takuya screamed at the bottom.

Suzuna quickly stood up, helped Takuya up, and looked forward: "Heitaro, how is it? Can you defeat him?"

Inuyama Heita shook his aching fist, stared at the guards, and said, "It's not that there is no chance. Although the enemy is very strong, they have obvious weaknesses. That is, they don't have much thinking ability, and their attacks are not very methodical. This guy has no weapons in his hands. As long as we can find the right opportunity..."

"Idiot, use your weapon! Use whatever you have around you!" Gao Sixian's voice came from the darkness.

The guard received the order, and his body flashed. Countless black lines suddenly burst out from his arms, forming a wrench covered with blood, dripping blood.

Inuyama Heita was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "Run! The other party has obtained the weapon in reality!"

Having weapons and not having weapons are two different things, and he doesn't want to be beaten to death in real life!

Inuyama Heita turned around and pulled Suzuna and Takuya forward. He could barely control his real body, and as long as he ran, he could keep some distance from the other party. In this way, the other party's teleportation ability would not be effective on them.

"Takuya, can you run?" Suzuna asked with concern.

Takuya nodded, "I can still do that... but running away like this isn't a solution. Heitaro, do you have any other plans?"

"Yes!" Inuyama Heita answered firmly. He said, "Otoko arranged the insurance for us... Although I don't want to trouble her, we have no other choice."

He took out a talisman and activated it. The talisman emitted a golden light, floated in front of them, and flew quickly in a certain direction.

"Suzuki-san... I can only rely on you!" Inuyama Heita thought to himself.

At the same time as the spell was activated, Suzuki's locator began to vibrate in reality.

"Is this still the way..." Suzuki's heart began to beat "bang bang". This plan was a little too dangerous even for her, but since she had come here, she had already prepared herself.

Listening to the footsteps getting closer in the corridor, Suzuki made up his mind.
