I directed the mythical revival in Tokyo

Chapter 120 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west
The meeting ended successfully, and the priest slowly retreated to the back hall, only to see Minister Miki and Minister Fujiwara who had been waiting for a long time.

The priest turned his gaze to Minister Fujiwara and bowed slightly.

"Thank you for lending me the ancient books. Unfortunately, many of them have been reduced to ashes under the ravages of the Longhouse King's fire."

Upon hearing this, Minister Fujiwara shook his head slightly, with a hint of indifference in his eyes.

"In fact, the loss is not as severe as imagined. Although some ancient books are too fragile to be easily touched due to their age, most of the precious documents have already been properly backed up and preserved in the form of photos."

After some polite exchanges, Minister Fujiwara changed the subject and formally mentioned the purpose of his trip.

"Regarding that mysterious black shadow, you are sure that its target is the Fujiwara family, right?"

The priest looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "If nothing unexpected happens, it is most likely the vengeful spirit of the Lord of the House, although in actual encounter, I feel that it is far less terrifying than the previous monsters such as the Tsuchigumo."

He nodded solemnly and continued to emphasize: "However, he is the legendary Lord of the House after all. The Fujiwara family must be on high alert and make arrangements in advance to prevent any unexpected events."

Upon hearing this, Minister Fujiwara expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you for your reminder, Your Excellency the Priest. The Fujiwara family will do its best to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

After Minister Fujiwara left, the priest slowly leaned against the cold wall.

Minister Miki at the side immediately saw the deep meaning behind the other party's subtle action. He took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice:

"Have you found any other clues?"

The priest's eyes became complicated and he nodded slowly.

"According to ancient books, Fujiwara no Fuhito's true identity is indeed Prince Kurumi, and the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter is most likely not fiction."

At this point, the priest paused for a moment, brewing a conclusion.

"Based on this, I have a bold guess that the real purpose of that mysterious organization is most likely to collect these five legendary treasures."

Upon hearing this, Minister Miki frowned and shook his head in doubt.

"But even so, what good does it do to know these? How can the five legendary treasures be collected so easily? You have also heard about the whereabouts of the stone bowl. You should know that it is very likely that the treasures are collected by a group of old monsters in history. We don't even know the name of that organization, let alone the whereabouts of the treasures."

Upon hearing this, the priest's face turned stern, with determination flashing in his eyes.

"No, now that we know the other party's purpose, we can take the initiative. We can use this to lure the enemy out of their hole!"

Minister Miki's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this.

"You mean we take the initiative to attack and trick them into revealing their whereabouts?!!"

The priest smiled and nodded. The two men's eyes met at this moment. There was no need for further words, as they already had a tacit understanding with each other.

"In that case, let's make replicas of the five legendary treasures and use them as bait to lure the hidden organization out into the open!"

"We must make careful preparations in advance so that we can catch them off guard!"

"To take a step back, we can also circulate imitations of these five treasures widely among the people, greatly increasing the difficulty and complexity of the other party's search for the real treasures!"

"No matter what the organization's true intention is, I believe it is definitely not a good thing. In this case, why don't we use these methods to make it more difficult for them to collect treasures, thereby effectively interfering with and restraining them."

After hearing this, Minister Miki leaned against the wall and began to think.

As the priest looked at Minister Miki, a doubt flashed through his mind about the identity of Fujiwara no Fuhito's fifth daughter.

But on second thought, the other party was most likely an illegitimate daughter, and the Fujiwara family did not record her in the family register for the sake of the family reputation. It was not enough to affect the overall situation, so he quietly kept this doubt to himself.

……

Kondo Retsu took a deep breath, and the muscles all over his body gradually expanded, filled with explosive tension.

His tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, with a sharp gleam in them, and then he swung the long sword in his hand horizontally quickly.

"Swish"

Dozens of tightly packed straw mats were cut cleanly in half like fragile paper. In kendo, cutting straw mats has always been a classic part of measuring the swordsman's skills.

Modern kendo masters have cut through seven layers of straw mats with one sword in public.

However, for Kondo Rei at this moment, all this is just a warm-up for the test.

He felt an unprecedented amount of energy surging in his body.

Years of sword training have made him familiar with every subtle change in his body.

After being injected with the extraordinary serum, his physical fitness seemed to be reforged, his strength increased several times, and his reaction speed and body flexibility reached unprecedented levels.

"This power!"

The corners of Kondo Rei's mouth cracked, revealing an almost crazy smile.

Beneath the smile is the satisfaction of the ultimate pursuit of power and the ecstasy of self-transcendence.

"This is the extraordinary world, the pinnacle of swordsmanship that mortals cannot reach in their entire lives!"

In an instant, Kondo Retsu's figure flashed and the long sword was in his hand. Then he swung it in a flash, and countless silver lights cut through the air. The speed was so fast that it was dazzling, beyond the limit of what the naked eye could capture.

Then, he slowly put the sword back into the sheath in a leisurely manner. With a crisp "click" sound, as the sword returned to its original position, he suddenly stood up with the sword in his hand.

The wall in front of him suddenly shattered like a cow being butchered, and pieces of wall scattered everywhere.

Kondo Retsu slowly closed his eyes, stretched his arms slowly to both sides like a roc spreading its wings, and stretched his body slowly backwards.

Between stretching and stretching, he deeply felt the extension of every inch of muscle in his body and the flow of strength.

“What a wonderful experience!”

"I see it, I understand it!" Kondo Rei's voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal.

I, Kondo Retsu, have reached a higher level!!!

Suddenly, he heard some disappointing words from the officials.

[Mr. Kondo, sorry to bother you, but you may need to travel next. ]

"Hmph, I know!"

--------

An old mansion hidden deep in the dense forest of Tokyo.

At this moment, Kondo Retsu was sitting upright in the house, with his sword placed across his knees and his eyes closed, resting.

According to the planned layout, if the vengeful spirit of Prince Nagaya really follows the trail to the ancestral home of the Fujiwara family, then this will be the best place for an ambush. He and the many people lying in ambush in the back mountain are ready for battle.

"Dong dong dong..."

The silence was suddenly broken by the sound of soft footsteps, coming from far away in the corridor.

Kondo Retsu looked over and saw a gentle and lovely woman placing the tea in a delicate manner and whispering softly, "Please enjoy your meal."

Kondo Rei gently picked up the fragrant tea beside him and took a sip. The fragrance of the tea instantly spread between his lips and teeth, making him feel relaxed and happy.

“Excellent quality.”

“It’s wonderful!”

Suddenly, he scored twice, and once again he heard the official's disappointing words.

[Mr. Kondo! The situation is not good! The ghost of the Long House King did not go to Tokyo, but appeared in Julu County, leading a large number of parasitic soul creatures! ]

【Please hurry up! 】
