Tokyo: The Player Behind the Scenes.

Chapter 191, page 189: A Waste of Resources

[Mori: That thing has started moving.]

Inside the giant, Nobita felt the ground shake, and the flesh passages that had loosened somewhat due to the bombing tightened again.

We must reunite with Muramasa Takii as soon as possible and advance towards the heart of the enemy.

Nobi draws the card "Partner of Justice" and chooses to summon it.

The blinding light cleaved through space like a sword, and a faint smell of blood filled the air—a peculiar stench that even the giant's flesh and blood could not suppress.

Nobita's eardrums were pierced by a metallic buzzing sound, and he subconsciously took a half step back, only to hear the sound of boot heels crushing gravel coming from the depths of the light.

Before the light had even faded, the newcomer's silhouette pressed into view like a stamped ingot: beneath shoulder-length, greyish-white hair, a scar tore open his left eye, and his amber pupil contracted to a thin slit in the shadows, like a nocturnal animal coming to hunt. At his waist, an unidentified badge vibrated rapidly.

With his left hand he clutched a bloodstained wolf head, the source of the peculiar stench, while with his right hand he held a silver sword, gleaming brightly.

The man casually tossed the blood-dripping wolf head back in the last second before the white light disappeared, looked at Nobi, nodded slightly, and spoke in a voice full of vicissitudes.

"I hate portals. But I'll accept your request."

Nobita's mouth inside his armor was barely closed.

The character before me is none other than the sorceress—no, it should be the legendary witcher—Geralt!

Seeing the character he had played before appear before him, even though it wasn't the first time, Nobi still felt his heart pounding.

I just hope that the characters he summons follow the original settings, rather than his actions, because he doesn't want to play two rounds of Gwent before starting.

"This direction."

Geralt, like the other characters summoned, knew the situation as soon as he appeared and what Nobita needed, so he took the lead and ran in a certain direction.

This is considered an SSR pull! Geralt is not only good at tracking, but also at exorcising demons, making him a perfect countermeasure!
Regardless of the circumstances, the giant monsters we see now definitely belong to a type of evil!
Although Geralt's character design wasn't particularly powerful, after several rounds of summoning, he realized that even if the summoned companions had strong character designs, their strength would only be slightly greater than his own, not by much.

Therefore, it is not advisable to place all hope in summoning, nor is it the style of a hero.

JRPGs rarely feature heroes skilled in summoning; they rely entirely on themselves and their companions. In contrast, ARPGs like Diablo have a plethora of summoning abilities.

Geralt ran ahead quickly, poured out a bottle of sword oil and smeared it on his silver sword, then suddenly swung his sword at the wall of flesh beside him.

Stab it!

The flesh and blood seemed to have encountered some kind of nemesis, causing it to twist and contract violently, and was quickly burned from the inside out into a fist-sized charred mass.

Nobita quickly followed and found that they had entered a closed space.

Perhaps sensing the threat emanating from Geralt, the surrounding flesh began a violent rejection reaction. With a series of hissing sounds, grotesque figures, half-bodied with only mouths as facial features, emerged from the wall of flesh and extended their scythe-like hands toward them.

Geralt seemed to have been prepared, scattering a pile of powder and extending his left hand to unleash a burst of flames.

The flames quickly ignited the powder, which then burst and spread rapidly in all directions.

With a loud crackling sound, a new passageway appeared in the previously enclosed space.

This method of clearing the road is really crude and direct.

Nobi coughed a few times, checked his health bar, and thankfully it hadn't decreased, probably because the friendly fire mechanism was disabled by default.

After following for only a few minutes, with the earth shaking and numerous monsters and traps blocking the way, Nobi heard the sounds of battle coming from not far away.

Cross cut!
Nobi beat Geralt to it, breaking through the wall of flesh from which the sound was emanating.

What was revealed before them was Muramasa Taki, who was fighting against a horde of monsters.

With her left hand, she used a grappling hook to move quickly, while with her right hand, she used a demon slash to take down the monsters that tried to stop her.

Geralt immediately joined the battle, appearing to be putting in even more effort than before.

But after seeing Muramasa Taki's still somewhat immature face, he quickly returned to his original state, as if it were all Nobita's illusion.

Nobita joined the battle, but these hastily created monsters were no match for them, quickly turning into puddles of mud, which were then reabsorbed by the fleshy fungus carpet on the ground. At this rate, it would likely be endless.

This thing is indeed not a threat, but it can be annoying if left unattended. You can't kill it all, and the materials can be reused by the giants.

Geralt may have been mindful of conserving his magical energy and therefore did not use his Sign abilities recklessly.

"Knight, who is he?" Taki felt that Geralt's attire was quite familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

She could roughly guess that it was summoned by Nobita. Nobita had revealed this ability before, but she didn't expect it to be able to summon a person.

"Geralt of Rivia." Geralt gave a brief self-introduction, looked at the increasingly closed passage ahead, gripped the trembling badge, reapplied the sword oil to his silver sword, and continued leading the way. "We're very close, close to the core of this monster."

“Geralt can sense the location of the Heart of Ninja. Just follow him. We don’t have much time left. The authorities may use nuclear weapons soon.”

Nobita quickly explained and followed.

Taki didn't ask any more questions, and threw out his grappling hook to grab the flesh wall, moving faster than a normal attack.

outside world.

Takatsuki Tetsuto's will has been completely absorbed by his stoicism, and he only wants to go on a killing spree.

Wherever it passed, flowers and plants withered, and some people who did not have time to escape were also exhausted due to the rapid draining of their life force, collapsing in their homes or on the road and losing consciousness.

But none of them died, because the withering and flourishing technique of the Heart of Endurance has no limit to the absorption of life force.

The principle is that what is borrowed must be returned.

But then again, if the creditor dies, then the debt doesn't have to be repaid!
The original heart of forbearance would never have given rise to such thoughts, but unfortunately, this heart of forbearance has been corrupted and mixed with the will of Takatsukasa Tetsu: if one cannot live a great life, then one should die a sensational death!

Seeing the giant wreaking havoc, Renault had no chance to get close. He could sense the giant's emotions from the ordinary blood it spilled.

To be honest, it's a waste.

Why didn't Renault get the Heart of Patience?
He was 99% confident that he could control this power.

Unfortunately, it fell into the hands of an unqualified person, a complete waste of its potential.

In the current situation, the Heart of Patience probably cannot be absorbed again. The only option is to find an opportunity to extract its essence and blood to squeeze out the last bit of its usefulness.

"Samurai! Sir Samurai! The Extraordinary Measures Department wishes to speak with you!"

The fearless live-streaming helicopters were still lingering nearby. This time, they approached Renault on their own initiative and shouted loudly over the loudspeaker.

Renault stopped and looked up at them.

Seeing this, they threw down a walkie-talkie, which Renault lightly jumped up and caught.

"This is Leon from the Extraordinary Countermeasures Department. I'm glad you'd agree to speak with me. To make a long story short, the Titans are approaching Higashi Honganji Temple, where a large number of refugees have gathered. We will be guarding that area from now on, and we need your assistance. Also, do you know anything about the Knights and Muramasa?"

"I see."

Renault did not answer their questions; after saying that one sentence, he simply threw the walkie-talkie away.

While pondering, he headed toward Higashi Honganji Temple.

What other secret weapons do they have? Are they technological weapons or supernatural and mysterious?

Does Japan really have Gundam?
Only characters like Ultraman or Gundam could handle a monster of this size; it's not like they'd just slice off the back of the neck.

But cutting the back of the neck... how about giving it a try?

Since the other side is prepared for this, it means that they will not immediately use nuclear weapons to strike. Moreover, given its agile and small size, it is not easy for the giant to deal with.

He could then approach the giant with peace of mind and seize the opportunity.

I just don't know what the other side's "weapon of the final battle" is.
