The voice of an unknown enemy rang in my ears.
But Taichi Yagami, with blood clearly on the corner of his mouth, suddenly smiled at this moment.
"Ah, I can do that, too."
"???"
The unknown enemy was stunned after hearing this, and then, as if he realized something, he hurriedly tried to withdraw his hand and leave.
But how could Yagami Taichi, who had paid the price of being seriously injured, let his prey escape?
Five activated gravity talismans with full effects and one soul-stabilizing talisman were instantly attached to the unknown enemy.
At the same time, Ye Shen Taiyi did not forget to recite, and the next second, a magic circle that could completely cover the two of them appeared on the ground where he was standing.
"this is?!"
The unknown enemy showed a horrified expression, he had already guessed Taichi Yagami's plan.
"Let me go, let me go!"
He yelled and cursed while hitting the boy in front of him hard on the chest.
He wanted to kill the opponent completely before the magic circle was activated.
pity……
Unlike other Onmyoji who relied on their spiritual attributes to break into the regular rank, Yagami Taichi, because of his half-demon physique, has the ability to withstand blows and heal himself, which is comparable to an eighth-rank or even seventh-rank Onmyoji with spiritual body skills.
Although the unknown enemy is of Ming-level combat power, he is only relying on the special bonus of the awakened one, and his own strength is only about the seventh level.
In addition, due to panic, his control over strength was greatly reduced.
The result was that he could only watch Taichi Yagami vomiting blood while successfully activating the magic circle.
The next moment, a dazzling light rose.
When the unknown enemy reacted, he had already appeared in the spiritual realm, the Four Sacred Mountains, which he had always desired but could not obtain.
"Welcome to the Four Sacred Mountains."
Yagami Taichi coughed lightly and said with a smile.
The unknown enemy opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but unfortunately, the next moment, an extremely terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon him.
"Anyone who attacks the stars will die!"
Qinglong's voice, which was majestic but with a hint of anger, rang in Yagami Taichi's ears.
Seeing his backer appear, he, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he fell asleep due to excessive blood loss.
When I woke up again, I was in a ward filled with the smell of alcohol.
"Unrecognized ceiling."
Yagami Taichi muttered softly.
Then, the voice of his teacher Tsuyoshi Aoyama rang in his ears.
"This is the VIP ward of Tokyo Hospital, which cooperates with Onmyoji. Although I don't want you to come here, as long as you embark on the path of Onmyoji, you can't avoid getting injured and hospitalized."
"Teacher Aoyama." Taichi Yagami struggled to sit up, but because the wound on his lung had just healed, he felt severe pain after just a little struggle.
"Don't move, just sit there and listen to me." Qingshan Gang stopped his student's behavior. "First of all, I want to apologize to you. After receiving your text message last night, I contacted my colleagues in the Special Countermeasures Office for Supernatural Disasters, but they were chasing another wanted criminal and couldn't spare any manpower."
"After that, I thought about coming over to help you, but..."
As he spoke, Qingshan just raised his arm. It was only then that Yagami Taifang saw the other's bandaged right hand.
"I was one kilometer away from your home, and I encountered an accomplice of Nobunaga Matsuoka, the assassin from the Blue Cosmos who appeared in front of you that night. Like Nobunaga Matsuoka, that guy was also an Awakener who swallowed the Bloodline Fruit but failed to control it. He was also the strongest among the Awakeners, second only to the Abyss."
091 Star Warrior Attack
"But I'm not weak either. My spiritual power reached the fifth level a few years ago. In addition, in the past... Anyway, at the cost of temporarily crippling one of my hands, I successfully defeated and killed him. But when I arrived at your house, you had already taken Matsuoka Nobunaga and teleported into the Four Sacred Mountains."
"More than half an hour later, the Dragon Priestess from the Twelve Earthly Branches returned to the world with you in her arms while you were unconscious."
After hearing this, Yagami Taichi's doubts were immediately answered.
He was a little surprised at first, as he was quite popular in the class and had the support of his teacher. But in the one hour after he sent the text message for help, no one from the Onmyoji Bureau showed up.
It now seems that either, like Mr. Aoyama's colleagues, he was capturing the wanted criminal, or he came to the rescue but was stopped somewhere else by members of the Blue Cosmos organization.
"No matter what, I still want to thank you, teacher, for running to save me despite the danger." Taichi Yagami expressed his sincere gratitude.
Qingshan Gang scratched his cheek when he heard this: "In fact, I'm not the only one taking action."
"???"
Yagami Taichi showed a surprised expression.
Then, he heard a few slightly unexpected surnames from the other party.
"Although they arrived later than me, the Onmyojis from the Ryugu, Tsuchimikado, and Yamabuki families all showed up later."
When it comes to this, even Aoyama Tsuyoshi couldn't help but reveal a teasing smirk.
"I know about Ryugu Setsuna, but when did you hook up with Tsuchimikado Sayuri and Yamabuki Yukino? It couldn't have been during the seven days of the Four Sacred Mountains Trial, right?"
Yagami Taichi showed a surprised expression.
If the Onmyoji from the Dragon Palace came to help, he could still understand it. After all, his relationship with Setsuna was quite good.
But Yamabuki and Tsuchimikado...
After thinking for a moment, Yagami Taichi shook his head: "I don't know why those two families offered to help."
This statement stunned Qingshan Tsuyoshi: "Aren't you friends with Tsuchimikado and Yamabuki?"
After hesitating for a moment, Yagami Taichi gave what he thought was a definitive answer: "At the moment, we can only be considered classmates."
"I see..." Qingshan touched his chin, "It seems that these two families are doing you a favor."
"???" Yagami Taichi paused in his heart, pretending to be confused, "Teacher, what do you mean by this?"
Qingshan Gang looked at his student with a half-smile: "Haven't you already guessed it, this year's Heart Star Master?"
"..."
Yagami Taichi fell silent after hearing this.
Of course he understood what Mr. Aoyama meant.
How could a Onmyoji family, which has been able to stand at the top of the psychic world of Sakura Empire for at least one or two hundred years, and at most nearly a thousand years, send family elites to rescue irrelevant people at the request of their younger generations?
Ultimately, the only thing that can motivate the three family heads, Tsuchimikado, Yamabuki, and even Ryuguu, to take action is interest.
Is there something about you that the other person would value?
The answer is, of course, yes.
Whether it is the identity of this year's Heart Star Master or the extraordinary talent he showed in the last semester, it is enough to make these smart people choose to make some appropriate investments before they grow up.
Not to mention the distant past, didn’t Tsuchimikado Haruka have the same idea back then?
However, the clan leaders did not expect that their luck would be so good.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a rare assassination of a star warrior event that only happens once in a century.
"Teacher Aoyama, can I ask a question?" Taiichi Yagami opened his mouth.
"Go ahead." Qingshan Gang nodded indifferently.
Ye Shen Taiyi took a deep breath, and then asked: "Besides me, have the other star warriors of the Four Sacred Mountains also encountered danger during this period?"
He needed to know whether what happened to him last night was an isolated incident or part of a series of 28 or even 32 assassinations.
If it is the latter, then it can be basically confirmed that the other party attacked him because of his identity as a star master.
But if it's the former...
Taichi Yagami lowered his head slightly, and a gleam of light flashed quickly in his eyes that were blocked by his bangs.
As an old man who retired from the Special Countermeasures Office for Supernatural Disasters, Tsuyoshi Aoyama naturally has his own set of sources of information.
After hearing this, he paused for a moment, then gave the answer: "Last night, including you, a total of six star warriors across the country were attacked by Blue Cosmos."
"These star masters, without exception, are all Onmyoji living in the real world."
"As for those who settled in the Spirit Realm or were born in a family, they basically did not encounter any danger."
"That's it."
Yagami Taichi muttered softly, and he felt a little relieved as he spoke.
Then he asked, "Are they okay?"
"What do you think?" Qingshan Gang asked back, "Ye Shen, although you are indeed a genius, you can't let your talent blind you and think that you are unique. Even you, who don't have much actual combat experience, can use the special authority of the star master to kill the attackers. Those seniors who have worked in the Onmyoji for several years may not be able to achieve the same feat, but they will definitely have no problem protecting themselves."
"Uh..." Yagami Taichi showed an embarrassed expression, "That's not what I meant."
Qingshan just took out a cigarette box from his jacket pocket, picked up one of the cigarettes with his mouth, then rubbed it slightly with his fingers, and lit it with the help of spiritual power transformed into fire attribute.
After taking a deep breath of smoke, he continued, "In this attack, the one in the most danger is actually you, the guy named Matsuoka Nobunaga. Even though your recorded strength is only at the regular level, making you the weakest of the six attackers, your identity as an awakener alone can rival the real bright level."
"Plus..." Qingshan raised his hand and pointed in the direction of his head while speaking, "Because of the awakening of his bloodline, his thinking circuit is completely different from that of ordinary people. When other attackers fail in assassination, they will choose to escape at the first opportunity, but in his consciousness, there is no such thought."
"As for the results, well, you've experienced it yourself."
Upon hearing this, Yagami Taichi gave a bitter smile.
"Teacher, please stop reading. If you continue reading, I will become stupid."
"Then be more careful." Qingshan Gang sighed. He was really worried that his students would become proud of their talents. Just like in this incident, although he knew about the attack an hour in advance, the boy lying in front of him only sent out a group text message for help instead of entering the Four Sacred Mountains to seek shelter immediately.
Given how much the Four Sacred Beasts value their star warriors, they will certainly send the Twelve Earthly Branches to the human world after discovering that the latter have been targeted by the Blue Cosmos.
At that time, the awakened assassins were nothing but chickens and dogs.
092 Transaction with the Director of the Special Countermeasures Office for Supernatural Disasters
At this time, someone knocked on the door of the VIP ward.
After hearing Taichi Yagami's response of "Come in", a middle-aged man in a suit and short hair who looked to be in his early forties pushed the door and walked in.
After seeing the other person, Qingshan Gang curled his lips imperceptibly, and then signaled to his students with his eyes not to say anything for the time being.
He himself stood up and looked at the other person.
"Chief Jinguji, it's been a long time since we last met."
The middle-aged man called Jinguji by Qingshan Gang glanced at his former subordinate and said, "Indeed, this is the first time we have met since the accident."
It seems that Mr. Aoyama and his old boss do not have a good relationship.
Taichi Yagami was lying on the bed, observing the current situation and making judgments in his mind.
But they are both adults after all, and even if they have dirty thoughts towards each other, they can suppress their own little thoughts and have a calm conversation.
"Qingshan, I came here this time to apologize to you and this generation of Heart Star Masters."
Although Jinguji was a high-ranking official of the Onmyoji, he did not act like a big shot at all. The moment he finished speaking, he was ready to bend down and salute the two of them.
If they had bowed like that, then the Special Supernatural Disaster Response Office would have been able to exonerate themselves from last night's attack with a high probability.
Taichi Yagami noticed this, and Tsuyoshi Aoyama, who knew his old boss's character very well, was no exception.
and so……
Almost at the same time as the Jinguji chief made his move, Aoyama Tsuyoshi took a step and came in front of the other party.
"My students and I will not accept verbal apologies."
Qingshan just grinned and interrupted directly.
After hearing this, Jinguji's carefully groomed eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
"Qingshan, what do you mean?"
Being stared at like this by him, if it were someone else, they might feel timid because of the difference in their status.
