The Last Sentinel

The aurora borealis overhead was dazzling and colorful, its colors like a tide engulfing and spreading across the entire dilapidated city!

The ruined city of skyscrapers is gradually transforming. The remains of the dead giant monsters are rapidly dissipating like bubbles. The skyscrapers that were previously cut in half are now restored to their original state. The overpasses that were smashed by the monster's remains are all brand new. There are no more burnt-out car wrecks on the streets. Everything is fading away like a mirage. The city streets that were once a post-apocalyptic battlefield have been replaced by a peaceful and harmonious environment!

But this harmonious atmosphere was soon shattered.

A layer of white mist appeared on the street.

The fog swept in from all directions like a tide, engulfing the entire city in an instant!

A few voices could be faintly heard through the thick fog.

"Damn it, where am I?"

"I'm not sure! Judging from its appearance, it should be a deserted area that has been strangely occupied."

"My map doesn't show up as having this city!"

"Perhaps your psionic map needs updating!"

"Impossible! My psionic map is the latest version! The one most recently issued by the Seireitei!"

At that moment, a deep voice interrupted everyone, "Enough! Be careful, don't disturb the evil spirits! Find a way to leave quickly!"

Just then, a bright red halo suddenly burst forth from the depths of the thick white fog!

"What is that?!"

"It looks like a red-haired lion! This thing is going to be troublesome!"

"What's the panic! We're a demon-hunting team certified by the Seireitei. This mere red-haired beast, a three-star monster, is nothing compared to my Soul-Shattering Spear; I'll send it to meet its maker!"

No sooner said than done, from within the thick fog, a silver spear emerged like a dragon rising from the sea, its momentum like a rainbow, hurtling towards the red-haired monster.

The three-meter-tall monster, covered in red fur, suddenly stood up. Its appearance was ferocious, its red fur as if stained with blood, its body as strong as a mountain, its eyes gleaming with a cold, eerie red light, its twisted and terrifying muscles, its giant claws spread out to a full meter in diameter, its black, sharp nails revealing a chilling light, and its body was surrounded by an eerie miasma that could not be dispelled.

As the thick fog dissipated, the man with the gun lightly touched the ground with his foot, his figure leaping up, and with a beautiful long-distance dash, he was about to kill the red-haired beast on the spot!

A true expert's skill is immediately apparent.

Clang!

A flash of cold light appeared first, followed by the spear thrusting out like a dragon!

The cold, gleaming spearhead pierced the red-haired beast's heart.

But then, a bizarre scene unfolded!

All that could be seen was that, at close range, the red-haired beast suddenly raised its left hand, lifting two fingers of its left hand, precisely clamping the incoming spearhead with a single, precise move!

The gunman was stunned.

Wait, how come this weirdo also knows martial arts?

This doesn't make sense!

No sooner said than done, the gunman, being an experienced fighter, reacted quickly, pulling sharply outwards and snatching the spear from the red-haired beast's fingers. Then, the spear flashed like a startled swan, its length alternating with the flick of his fingertips, as he continuously performed hand seals, attaching several illusory talismans to the spear.

With each thrust of the spear, magical power erupted, either binding, trapping, or burning. Golden shimmering talisman phantoms transformed into continuous golden chains, wrapping around the red-haired beast before them!

A female voice came from behind, "Are you sure you can handle this, senior brother? If not, just give up and let us do it!"

The spearman performed a series of dramatic steps, his blue robes fluttering in the wind. His twelve-foot-long spear, embroidered with thunder patterns, trembled on the ground, and runes on its tip lit up: "Northern True Martial, Xuanwu Divine Lord. With disheveled hair and wielding a sword, treading on a tortoise and a snake, his might shakes the Three Realms, subduing all demons. Evil spirits and monsters, swiftly vanquish them! So be it!!"

The spear, like a guide, and the talisman, like a tortoise, slowly sank down, about to completely suppress the red-haired beast corpse!

Looking down at the red-haired Hou corpse, it neither dodged nor flinched, but gazed up at the talismanic halo above its head, seemingly with a sense of appreciation.

Yes! I admire it!

This beast is appreciating the Daoist arts!

How could this happen!

Could it be that the red-haired lion is not afraid of being suppressed by talismans?

What's there to be afraid of in suppressing them?

This wasn't some zombie red-haired beast at all, but rather Ye Feng, the unlucky kid who had just been dyed red.

When Ye Feng woke up, he found himself transformed into a red-haired monster and had been transported to a completely unfamiliar alternate world.

Before Ye Feng could even get used to his surroundings, a group of humans started treating him like a monster!

At that moment, the Golden Talisman Tortoise fell from the sky, and the instant it collided with the Red-haired Hou, the Golden Talisman Tortoise suddenly exploded, and countless talismans scattered into the sky!

"Run!"

The mage with the gun tried to escape, but it was too late. The red-haired beast suddenly grabbed the boy and rubbed his two arms, which were thicker than a man's waist, together. The sound of bones cracking and popping echoed. In just a moment, the red-haired beast folded the boy with the gun and his gun into a limited-edition folding golden shuttle figure!

"How could this happen!"

A girl with a high ponytail, holding a mobile phone-like observation device, kept saying, "This red-haired beast is clearly low on health! Its HP is only 8 points! Damn it, how did its 8 HP become a horizontal line?! A horizontal 8, doesn't that mean infinity? Infinite health?"

"This is a mutated red-haired lion, not your average eerie boss!"

"Retreat! Retreat now!"

In the thick fog, a young man with messy hair heard these words, suddenly stepped back, shielded everyone in front of him, and hurriedly fled!

But, no sooner said than done!

The red-haired lion is extremely fast, killing one enemy with a single swipe of its claw!

The ground shook, and dozens of corpses lay lifeless on the ground.

On the eerie battlefield shrouded in white mist, the red-haired beast gently patted its giant claws, its gaze sweeping over the numerous corpses before settling on the only surviving young man with tousled hair.

Seeing this, the young man with tousled hair had a resolute look in his eyes. He suddenly untied the belt around his waist, skillfully draped it over the street lamp, and then tucked it into his belt around his neck, ready to cosplay as a teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll).

Just as the young man with messy hair was about to hang himself, a hoarse voice came from behind him, "Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger."

The young man with tousled hair was taken aback, then struggled to say, "The pagoda suppresses the river demon!"

The red-haired lion continued, "The land is situated on a high hill, where the streams and mountains have been beautiful for millennia."

The tousled-haired youth landed on the ground, staring in astonishment at the enormous red-haired beast corpse before him. He hesitated, then said, "The gate faces the sea, three rivers converge and flow for ten thousand years! You, who are you! How do you know these coded messages!"

The red-haired beast didn't speak, but instead asked, "What is your honorable surname?"

The young man with tousled hair looked at the strange boss in front of him suspiciously, and said, "You're too kind. My surname is Chu, and my given name is Fei, Chu Fei! I come from Earth, and I traveled to Earth on April 1st, 2022, April Fool's Day. I live on the third floor of Unit 4, Xingfu Community, Changhe Road, Jinling New City, Daxia. I have an older sister, my father works for a company, and my mother is a full-time housewife! And you! You're also from Earth?"

The red-haired beast's voice was hoarse. "Ye Feng, trainee manager of the Transmigrators' Club. Nice to meet you. Please give me your guidance."
