I Am a Heroic Spirit

"gecko."

At this time, Takatsuki Izumi spoke, and Daimori Yakumo immediately stopped being presumptuous and retreated to the back obediently.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Takatsuki Izumi looked at the ghoul that fell to the ground and asked in a deep voice.

The ghouls being watched by the legendary One-Eyed King suddenly tensed up and stammered, "Outside, there's fog, black fog, everywhere. Some brothers have entered the fog and died immediately. Also, the brothers who haven't left have discovered that there are many corpses of their kind down there, nearly five hundred of them. Most of them have been disemboweled, and some have had their necks broken. But no one noticed anyone else coming in. Even if they were on guard, it was useless. People who were alive and well just now were dead in the blink of an eye."

Takatsuki Izumi frowned and ordered, "Gecko, you, Nick, and Ti, go out and see who is playing tricks on you."

Seeing that the One-Eyed King had given the order, Omori Yakumo and Nick and Naki who were standing in the corner came out, responded, and carried the zombie out the door.

"Let's go. I want to see which bastard is playing tricks."

As soon as he walked out the door, Ohmori Yakumo threw the zombie in his hand aside and walked downstairs.

When the three of them arrived at the first floor, they saw an extremely chaotic scene. The ground was littered with disemboweled corpses, and the living zombies all looked terrified.

Seeing this scene, Ohmori Yakumo showed a cruel smile on his face, and several blood-red scales quietly stretched out from behind him, hitting the crowd heavily.

Suddenly, dozens of zombies fell to the ground and died under this blow. Their lives also made the zombies below pay attention to the three people in the corridor: Ohmori Yakumo, Nick, and Naki.

"Be quiet, or die."

Ohmori Yakumo shouted loudly. The reputation of the Bronze Tree Organization and Ohmori Yakumo's brutal reputation made the Bronze Tree members and the unorganized ghouls from other organizations slowly quiet down.

"very good."

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Ohmori Yakumo nodded in satisfaction, but did not take any action. He just stood on a high place and coldly glanced at the zombies below, wanting to see who was causing trouble.

At this time, a petite figure appeared behind a ghoul, and was also seen by Ohmori Yakumo. However, as the ghoul fell and the figure disappeared, Ohmori Yakumo could not remember whether he had seen clearly the person who killed the ghoul just now.

As the dead ghoul was discovered by everyone, the crowd below started to riot again, and Omori Yakumo also became annoyed.

"Who the hell is that bastard? Get out here! Don't you want to kill someone? I'm standing right here for you to kill! Come out if you dare!"

The anxious Ohmori Yakumo jumped directly from the corridor to the center of the crowd below, grabbed a zombie with one hand and threw it far away, making a space centered on himself. Then he turned his head and looked around while roaring. Ohmori Yakumo, who was cruel by nature, had never had much patience. His men were killed under his nose, even though they were just a bunch of trash, it was still a provocation to him, which made Ohmori Yakumo furious.

As soon as Yakumo Ohmori finished speaking, he saw Nick and Naki looking at him in shock. To be more precise, they were looking at his abdomen. Yakumo Ohmori subconsciously looked down and saw a scantily clad little girl holding a scalpel who had appeared in front of him at some point. When she realized that he was looking at her, she smiled innocently, but her actions had nothing to do with the word innocent. The little girl holding the scalpel was waving the scalpel at him at a speed that he could not catch up with. Intense pain came over Yakumo Ohmori as his abdomen cracked.

Before Ohmori Yakumo's consciousness disappeared, the last scene he saw was Naki, who was rushing towards here with an angry expression, being cut in half by a samurai who suddenly appeared.

The silent death of Ohmori Yakumo and the fleeting swiftness of the samurai who had killed the Bronze Tree's leaders had further escalated the chaos. While the ghouls were man-eating monsters, they were still life forms close to human. This paranormal event easily broke through their psychological defenses, leaving them deeply terrified. Many ghouls rushed out of their stronghold in panic, only to be swallowed by the death fog or killed by the assassins within.

The door to the room on the second floor was violently pushed open again. Nick, a transvestite with a panicked look on his face, rushed in and shouted, "Something's happened! It really is a ghost. Gekko and Ti have been killed, and they were killed without any resistance."

"what?"

Everyone was surprised. Takatsuki Izumi, who had been calm until then, finally changed her expression. She realized the seriousness of the situation. Being able to kill Gecko and Ti instantly, and frightening Nick to this extent, even if it wasn't a ghost, it had to be treated as one.

The group of zombies finally left the room and walked downstairs, only to see corpses everywhere. There were originally 300,000 to 400,000 zombies, but tens of thousands were lost in the previous battle. There were still 200,000 in the other two bases, but only less than 100,000 were left alive here.

After walking around the bodies below and examining the cause of death, Duoduoliang quickly figured out who the murderer was.

"Do you remember the murderer who is wanted by the police these days?" Duoduoliang said with a serious face.

Faced with Duoduoliang's question, all the Bronze Tree cadres were at a loss. It was already so late and everyone was busy preparing for the decisive battle. Who had time to care about the human murderer?

"Jack the Ripper?" Takatsuki Izumi immediately answered Tadara's question. "The criminal who killed many escorts and ghouls during this period, always by disemboweling them. Since all the victims, except for the ghouls, were escorts, the police called him Jack the Ripper."

"Yes, I think we need to be prepared for the ghost of Jack the Ripper to appear in Japan and become our enemy." Duoduoliang said solemnly. After checking the corpses, he found that these dead ghouls were killed head-on and had no power to resist. They were killed before they could even react. In this case, there is no other explanation except that it was a vengeful ghost seeking revenge. After all, with such ability,

Chapter 59: The Ghouls are all destroyed and the exorcist arrives

Slowly, slowly, ghouls continued to die, right before the eyes of Takatsuki and the others. The ghouls gathered below perished one after another, oblivious to their presence. Chaos ensued, the ghouls' psychological defenses completely crumbling. Ignoring the intimidating presence of the higher-ranking ghouls above, they opened the plaza's gates and rushed out, quickly falling into oblivion. Gradually, aside from Takatsuki and the other Bronze Tree officials, the vast commercial plaza was reduced to a field of corpses. The remaining ghouls preferred entering the fog outside rather than waiting to die.

Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Takatsuki Izumi's face turned extremely pale. He originally planned to use the lives of those investigators to protest to the government, but he didn't expect that before CCG suffered any casualties, his side was about to be wiped out.

Just when Takatsuki Izumi was angry, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. When she looked down, she saw her internal organs scattered all over the ground. Those internal organs had fallen out of her broken abdomen.

In the last moment when she lost consciousness, she saw an arrow piercing through the fog like an aurora, and then she heard a child's cry of pain, and then she lost consciousness.

"It was still a step too late. It almost hit the heart."

Led by several foxes, a group of people walked quickly into the commercial plaza. The leader was holding a bow and arrow. It was Shizuka Deba and others. Naraku Isayama said with some regret.

If the arrow shot by Shizuka Chang just now had been a step faster, it would have pierced the evil spirit's heart at the same time as it killed the ghoul.

Deba Jingji did not respond, but just looked coldly at Jack who dodged his arrow and was only pierced in the shoulder. He quickly put the arrow on the bow and shot again.

As soon as Jack's feet touched the ground, he saw a deadly threat coming from the air. He quickly jumped up again and landed on the railing in the corridor.

"Kill you!"

After dodging the attack, Jack did not hesitate. He tapped the railing and shot out like a bullet. The extremely fast speed confused Dechang Jingsi's eyes. Dechang Jingsi, who was unable to catch Jack's movements, held the bow and arrow for a long time but was unable to shoot.

Where is it? Where is it? Where exactly is it? I can’t even see it!

Dechang Jingsi's expression became more and more solemn. The bow and arrow in his hand moved slightly to the left and right, but he could not let go of the bow.

It sounds like a long time, but in fact, it was only a short moment. Jack had already approached Shizuka Deiba, and Shizuka Deiba still could not accurately judge Jack's position. Masagaku Tsuchimiya and Naraku Isayama were already holding swords, protecting Shizuka Deiba on both sides, ready to forcibly take Jack's attack.

However, although Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku are far stronger than ordinary exorcists, they are still far behind Jack.

In an instant, Jack had passed through the swords swung simultaneously by Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku. Before the two of them could retract their swords, Jack had already appeared in front of Deba Shizuka, and the two scalpels in his hands had already been swung at Deba Shizuka, the enemy who posed the greatest threat to her.

If you can’t see with your eyes, then see with your heart.

Looking at Jack who was constantly changing positions in front of him and the scalpel in her hand, Shizuka Deba suddenly recalled a sentence in her heart. She closed her eyes thoughtfully, and then, relying on her own feeling, she loosened the bowstring in her hand. Suddenly, the arrow carried the force of thunder and rushed straight towards Jack who was close at hand.

Jack had no chance to dodge. Unless her speed could exceed the speed of light, the arrow in front of her would inevitably penetrate her soul core. However, no matter what Jack did, she could not increase her speed to that level.

"Chong!"

"clang!"

At this moment, just when the tip of the arrow had broken through Jack's shirt and was about to pierce Jack's body, a sword and a pair of hooks fell on the arrow almost at the same time. With the crisp sound of steel colliding, the arrow tilted a few centimeters imperceptibly, allowing Jack to see the right time and try to turn to the side, finally avoiding the crisis of retreat, but with a scar on his waist.

"There are helpers!"

Before Tsuchimiya Masagaku could put away his sword, he saw a samurai and a foreign man with hooked claws replacing his hands appear behind him unknowingly. The evil thoughts emanating from them clearly showed that they were Type A evil spirits. So he quickly swung his sword backwards, and Isayama Naraku did the same.

ag

They did not expect that their attack could hurt the person who suddenly appeared behind them, they just hoped that the helping Chang Jingji would have a chance to retreat from the attack range of the three Type A people.

Just as the two wished, The Phantom of the Opera and Izo Okada, who came to help Jack, turned around together to block the incoming swords. Although Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku were not strong enough to hurt The Phantom of the Opera and Izo Okada, the swords in their hands forced The Phantom of the Opera and Izo Okada to take them seriously.

However, Masagaku Tsuchimiya and Naraku Isayama could only hold back the Phantom of the Opera and Izo Okada, but still missed Jack.

Jack, who was almost killed by De Chang Jing Si's arrow, immediately adjusted his state and rushed towards De Chang Jing Si at a high speed.

Shizuka Deiba, who had just launched his strongest attack, had no time to regulate the boiling spiritual energy in his body. He was far inferior to Jack in speed and could not dodge at this moment. He was about to die at the hands of Jack. More than ten pipe foxes, dozens of talismans, two spiritual power slashes, and a metal storm condensed by thousands of spiritual power bullets, a group of long-range attack exorcists who had been ambushed on the left and right sides of the square in front, the two sword girls Jianshan Mei and Jianshan Huangquan who rushed to both sides of Shizuka Deiba, and Iizuna Kiyoshi from the back attacked Jack from three directions.

As the saying goes, many ants can kill an elephant. After careful coordination, the attacks from multiple parties were able to accurately avoid Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku, hit Jack, and even affected The Phantom of the Opera and Okada Izo, forcing Jack to give up the attack and retreat to a safe place. After the Phantom of the Opera and Okada Izo exchanged a move with the combination of Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku, they also quickly retreated, playing to Assassin's advantage and hiding in the dark with Jack.

"Oh no! There are not just one Type A, but three!" Isayama Naraku said with a grim face.

"It's really bad, and the situation is obvious. Type A has become much stronger. Even with the Tsuchimikado family's barrier, it is still much stronger than a few days ago."

Tugong Yale looked around the scene, trying to find the three hidden people, but he didn't see any trace of them.

"Shoot all around to force them out."

Dechang Jingsi sensed the resentment of the evil spirits, but gained nothing, so he directly gave orders using the most stupid method.

The exorcists who received the order formed a circle and opened fire in all directions. For a moment, the overwhelming bullets made the equipment inside the square dented, but they still could not find any trace of the three people.

"Could it be that Type A saw that we were outnumbered and knew they couldn't handle us, so they left?"

After attacking everywhere and seeing that Jack and the other two still didn't show up, Iitsuka Noriyuki began to speculate.

As soon as he finished speaking, Iizuna Noriyuki suddenly felt a strong sense of danger surge from his back to his brain, along with a biting chill. It was the feeling of facing certain death, like having your stomach slowly opened by a scalpel, and then having your internal organs pulled out bit by bit.

The crisis of death stimulated Izuna Noriyuki's brain and drove his body to fight against the arrival of death. His body leaned forward and the precious spear in his hand instantly stabbed backwards. This was a surprise attack that Izuna Noriyuki used to the extreme.

Unfortunately, Iizuna Noriyuki's strength is still too weak. Even if he uses his spear skills to the highest level, it cannot affect Assassin's attack.

The sound of blood gushing out and screams of pain were heard. Everyone looked at Izuna Noriyuki and saw that he had fallen to the ground. The muscles on his back had been cut by the sharp blade, revealing the bones and internal organs inside.

"Oh no! Everyone, be alert! Type A assassins are very powerful!"

Tsuchimiya Masagaku's face suddenly changed and he shouted loudly that Isayama Naraku had gone to check on Iizuna Noriyuki's condition. Although he was not dead yet, he could not hold on for much longer.

Everyone gathered in a circle in horror, looking around without daring to be careless. With the three family heads present, he was able to kill the heir of the Iizuna family with ease. What a terrifying assassination ability.

"Dad, how is Iitsunoki?"

Isayama Yomi and Isayama Mei walked towards Isayama Naraku and asked worriedly.

…………9 flowers…………

"Can he still hold on? Uncle, if the heir of the Iizuna family dies in the demon-exorcising operation led by our families, it will definitely have a significant impact on the relationship between our families." Jianshan Mei asked with a serious face. If it was just a mission with some juniors, it would be fine, but this time it was led by three family heads. If Iizuna Noriyuki died and they were fine, they would definitely be blamed.

"He can still hold on for about five minutes. It seems we have to send him out for treatment as soon as possible." Isayama Naraku said seriously.

"That's right, Iitsuka Noriyuki cannot die, at least not in this demon-exorcising operation. If the most outstanding successor of the Iitsuka family dies here, the Iitsuka family will definitely vent their anger on us. We must send him out for treatment now." Tsuchimiya Masara also came over and spoke.

"But those three Type As won't let us leave easily." Isayama Yomi pointed out the most critical situation. The three assassin-type Type As needed to walk nearly a thousand meters to leave Area 11, which was enough for them to kill all of him and others.

Tsuchimiya Yale pondered for a moment and then said, "We'll try to find Type A and hold them back. You two will then take the opportunity to take Izuna Noriyuki away."

As he spoke, Tsuchimiya Masara walked towards Deiba Shizuka, and Isayama Naraku, Isayama Kyoumi, and Isayama Mei gave him a few words of advice, then followed him.

The three family heads exchanged a few words quietly and immediately reached a consensus. After all, none of them wanted to bear the wrath of a family of demon hunters for no reason, and they had to save Izuna Noriyuki's life.

"Crazy Red Lotus, Roaring Wave."

"Eat, Bai Rui."

Tsuchimiya Masagaku and Isayama Naraku summoned their own spirit beasts together and launched indiscriminate attacks in all directions. Deba Shizuka also waved out a large number of talismans, which shot out in the air like sharp arrows, intending to rely on the attacks of the three to force out the Type A hiding in the dark.

It has to be said that the ideas and actions of the three were very effective. They were not like the ordinary exorcists before, whose strength was too weak. Even if they hit Jack, Phantom of the Opera and Okada Izo, one or two hits would not cause any harm to them. Their strength far exceeded that of ordinary exorcists, and the strongest attack they launched made it impossible for Jack and others to continue hiding, and they had to appear in the open.

As soon as the three appeared, Tsuchimiya Masagaku, Isayama Naraku, and Deba Shizuji immediately attacked. Each of them held down an Assassin, and nearly two hundred ordinary exorcists assisted in the attack. However, in a short period of time, the three could not win the battle.

As the battle started, Jianshan Huangquan and Jianshan Mei looked at each other, picked up Iizuna Noriyuki from the ground, and ran outside.

The battle ended quickly. After all, for an opponent with overwhelming strength, being besieged can be said to be the easiest battle, because the opponent cannot carry out large-scale attacks.

Chapter 60 Investigator Attacked

After the exorcists retreated, Deba Shizuji, Tsuchimiya Masagaku, and Isayama Naraku dared not linger any longer. After a brief exchange, they rushed forward without hesitation, even when their backs were slashed by blades. Abandoning defense and fleeing at full speed, coupled with the protection of their spirit beasts and shikigami, Deba Shizuji, Tsuchimiya Masagaku, and Isayama Naraku successfully disappeared from the sight of Jack, Okada Izo, and the Phantom of the Opera.

In a hotel far away, Kotaro Amon was standing at the door holding a box of ramen, looking at the fog outside through the glass. He felt a little strange. The weather forecast clearly said that today was not a foggy night, and there was no sign of fog before. Why did it suddenly fog up?

"It's very strange. There shouldn't be fog tonight. This fog is abnormal."

At this time, Mado Wuxu walked over and said while looking at the fog outside.

"I always feel that the fog gives people an ominous feeling." Kotaro Amon said uncertainly.

"Could it be those zombies who did it? Do those zombies have this special ability?" The fog outside attracted other people as well. This sudden situation would naturally not be missed by reporters and cameramen.

Zhenhu Wuxu turned his head to look at the reporter who was asking the question, then shook his head and said affirmatively: "No, we can be sure of this. Those ghouls are all physically mutated and do not have supernatural abilities such as controlling water, fire, and mist."

"This fog makes me feel like the legendary white ghosts walking at night." Suzuya Juuzo said vaguely while eating snacks.

"Although they're called ghouls, they're not ghosts," Shinohara Yukinori walked over, taking the snacks from Suzuya Juzo's hand and placing a bowl of instant noodles in his. "Also, don't eat snacks at this time. Eat some noodles to replenish your energy and prepare for the battle later."

"So, when something like this happens, do we need to go out and check it out? I think the audience is very curious about why this happened." Seeing that the topic had gone off track, the female reporter quickly brought it back.

Zhenhu Wuxu wanted to refuse immediately. Going outside in this situation was too dangerous. No, it was simply courting death. There were many snipers among the zombies. If they went outside, the enemy would be in the dark and they would be in the light, and they would be easily sniped.

However, Mado Wuxu did not directly refuse after all, because before they came, the new director told them that they must fully cooperate with the reporters of Tokyo TV and make sure to turn this operation into a variety show to avoid causing adverse effects on social stability.

Just when Mado Wuxu was struggling, Arima Takashi came over, put his hand on the glass door handle, and said lightly: "I'll go out and take a look. You stay here and don't walk around casually."

After saying that, Arima Takamasa opened the glass door and walked out, and quickly closed the glass door to prevent the strange fog outside from entering the hotel.

As soon as Arima Takashi walked into the fog in everyone's sight, everyone could only see a vague figure. It can be seen that the density of the fog has exceeded imagination and it is definitely not normal fog.

However, Arima Takamasa was in a bad condition at this time. As he entered the fog, he immediately felt dizzy and waves of tingling penetrated into his body from his skin. Even the uniform with strong defensive capabilities could not block the tingling.

This fog is poisonous.

Arima Takamasa had just made this judgment when he felt the tingling and dizziness suddenly leave him. At the same time, an extremely faint light appeared in front of his eyes, as if it was driving away the fog that was eroding him.

Arima Takashi was startled and subconsciously remembered the talisman distributed by the bureau when he came here before, and the meaningful look in his eyes. His hand involuntarily reached into his pocket and took out a talisman.

The talisman, which originally looked like a piece of paper and had no special features, began to emit an illusory glow in the fog. That glow was undoubtedly the power that had just protected it from being eroded by the fog.

"Are there really ghosts in this world?"

Arima Takamasa said in disbelief. Although he had heard of the related legends a long time ago, he had never seen it before. When he saw this scene today, his three views were completely refreshed... Suddenly, an imperceptible sound of wind was heard, and Arima Takamasa immediately flew up, turned the owl in the air to the back where he was standing, and suddenly a large number of kagune shot out.
