The mastermind behind this started by creating a strange story

"Sigh..."

Spewing out a puff of black miasma, the horse-headed ghost ignored the other ghost that was gradually disappearing, and instead picked up Takagi Okada's ghost and stuffed it into his bone-saw knife, then turned around and strode away.

This little episode is insignificant to the progress of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons and does not even need to be taken seriously.

After the returning horse-headed demon took his position, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons led by Hua Piao moved forward again.

This time, no one could stop them.

It was not because the horse-headed ghost ignored the artillery shells and easily destroyed the armored vehicle's power, but because of the ghost that was held in the horse-headed ghost's hand and then stuffed with a bone saw.

The captured ghost looks exactly like Takagi Okada. I'm sure everyone knows what this means.

You can't have a good end in life, and you can't rest in peace after death.

This horrifying scene stimulated everyone's nerves. In front of the monsters, even death was a luxury.

Death is the last mercy in the world. When this last mercy is taken away, there will be no destination.

The Ground Self-Defense Force Command, which watched this scene, was silent for a moment, and helplessly ordered the encircled troops to retreat again. They underestimated the monsters and overestimated themselves.

Chapter 358 This number is wrong

The monsters, whom no one dared to stop, walked leisurely on the land of Kyoto.

Any buildings blocking their way ahead were easily destroyed by the Ox-Head and Horse-Face vanguards, turning them into ruins.

This scene made many Kyoto people's hearts ache, especially the Kyoto government officials who had fled long ago. If they did not have strong willpower, they would have fainted long ago.

After tonight, the direct or indirect economic losses will reach an incalculable number. I just hope it will end as soon as possible.

Soon, the blood-red gate standing on the street in Ukyo District suddenly closed its two wide-open doors.

The towering door closed without making any sound, completely unlike the creaking sound that echoed throughout the surrounding area when it was just opened.

The closed blood-red gate suddenly turned into a large cloud of red smoke after the last monster walked away. The light red smoke floated into the sky with the wind and merged with the red light in the dark clouds.

The starting point of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has disappeared.

The observers who were keeping a close eye on the scene all the time noticed the changes in the bloody door at the first moment. Some recorded it, some speculated about it, and of course some analyzed it. Although their thoughts were different, the same idea flashed through their minds.

It's over. No new monsters will appear.

At this moment, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons has truly begun.

"Strange, why do I count and find that there are only about eighty monsters? Did I count wrong?" The anchor who was hiding in a safe place wondered. In order to rise to the top and become a big internet celebrity, it is impossible for him to leave before the end of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

Of course, if a fight breaks out that could cost his life, then forget about him continuing the live broadcast. Having money is good, but you have to have a life to spend it.

"Although the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is just a general term, it shouldn't be the case that there are less than a hundred of them. Let me take a look."

[The host doesn’t need to watch, I’ve counted them, there really aren’t a hundred monsters. ]

[This One Hundred Demons Night Parade has shrunk, right? How come there are only about eighty of them? Logically, there should be at least a hundred. ]

[Ohhh! I saw a super charming monster and took a screenshot. I want to use her as a side dish! ]

[Where is it? I want to see it too! ]

【I** directly pay for social security! 】

Ignoring those inappropriate comments, most people said that they only saw double-digit monsters, which also proves that the host was not wrong in counting, there are really not a hundred monsters in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!

Even the anchor who was hiding could notice it, and the government officials who were always paying attention to the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons naturally discovered this abnormal scene a long time ago.

This is different from what is recorded!

Not only was the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons not recorded realistically, but even the number of monsters was wrong. People of that era were so careless.

No, it is also possible that there is nothing wrong with the record, but there is something wrong with this Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. This Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is incomplete!

Because it is not the Obon Festival, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is not very likely to happen. Experts who analyzed this Night Parade of One Hundred Demons couldn't help but think so.

Although the real reason is far from what the experts speculated, one thing they were right about was that there was something wrong with this Night Parade of One Hundred Demons.

Without looking at those little monsters, just look at the big monsters walking among them, you can immediately find the dissatisfaction and resentment revealed from head to toe.

However, because monsters don't have human form, observers can't see anything. Even if some human-shaped monsters have angry and ferocious faces, they will just think that they are monsters and can't use human's way of thinking.

However, the observer was obviously overthinking it. Some things are often just as simple as they seem.

Those monsters with angry and ferocious faces, who made no attempt to conceal their anger, were all forced here by the Great Tengu. There was no inducement, only coercion.

The Great Tengu with the Great Connection is completely above all the monsters. If there were no ghosts, gods or demons in the world, the Great Tengu would be the most powerful monster in the world.

However, Daitengu has no ambition to become the most powerful monster. He only wants to resurrect his master, the Demon King Otakemaru!

Therefore, all the big monsters that were targeted by Daitengu were captured by Daitengu who was holding the Three-Bright Sword Daitongren. In this situation, no one could remain in a good temper.

The sulking big monsters had extremely ugly expressions on their faces, and the little monsters next to the big monsters were also silent as if they were a mouse, for fear of provoking the big monsters next to them.

What should have been a joyous monster parade turned out to be unusually serious, even boring and unhappy due to unwillingness.

Huapiao, who was walking in the front, also had an unhappy look on his face. This was the worst One Hundred Demons Night Parade he had ever led. Not only was there not enough monsters, but the atmosphere was also not right. It didn't feel like a joyous ceremony at all.

And all this is because of the big monster flying in the air!

The Great Tengu was flying in the air at this moment, using the Great Link in his hand to blend the evil spirit produced by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, while also monitoring a group of monsters to prevent any of them from quietly leaving halfway.

He had a hunch that maybe he didn't need to go the whole way, and could awaken Otakemaru's soul halfway, and could also make the resurrected one-third of the soul even stronger, but he would need to use some means...

Thinking of this, Da Tengu glanced at the monsters moving forward below, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It would be better to live in the world with a worn-out body.

………………

In the city center, Fujii Daimaru Department Store.

It was originally the busiest business district in the center of Kyoto, but at this moment there was no one in sight, and the darkness of the sky made the area unusually eerie.

But in the food area on the basement floor of the department store, there was suddenly a noise, which seemed both bizarre and abrupt in this lifeless place.

"Hey, An Luo, come here quickly, this is really delicious, come and try it!"

"Woo~"

"Don't eat so much at once, try more food other than seafood. How can you be so stupid that you don't even know how to eat!"

In the food area, Hei Jianguang picked up a large piece of half-cooked beef leg with his left hand and gnawed it without paying any attention to his image. After finishing it in a few bites, he picked up the unopened wine beside him, crushed the bottle mouth and poured it directly into his mouth.

"Tons, tons, tons~"

"Ha! That's refreshing!"

Hei Jianguang finished a bottle of wine in one breath, threw the bottle away, and then reached out and picked up a piece of almost cooked steak. Without saying a word, he started to eat it, even the kind with seasonings.

This is a delicacy that can never be enjoyed at sea. At sea, he can only use seawater to make coarse salt for seasoning. Although it is not bland, it is not very delicious either.

"Eat more. After you are full, quickly collect some seasonings and store them in your body. Otherwise, when we return to the sea, we will only be able to eat those salty grilled fish again."

Hei Jianguang really liked this scene. He could eat whatever he wanted and take whatever he wanted. No one came to stop them, and there was no one around.

The moment he entered the mall, he quickly destroyed the surveillance cameras, so their appearance could not be recorded. If possible, he really wanted to empty the entire mall.

Although An Luo can indeed store all the goods in the mall in his body, he is not a demon, so he can just take away four-fifths of the goods.

Anyway, he and An Luo had no use for those skin care products, and taking them away would take up space, so they just left them behind.

He is such a gentle dragon.

Chapter 359 Internal strife

The parade is already halfway through.

Since this was not a joyous celebratory parade, the demons did not stop for a moment and soon arrived at the city center.

Shijo Kawaramachi is the most prosperous commercial street in the entire Kyoto city, but now it has been occupied by the demons of the One Hundred Demons Night Parade.

The Kyoto government, who was watching the monsters advance through various monitoring devices, became worried, because this was arguably the area in the entire Kyoto that could least be damaged.

Whether as a commercial street for Kyoto residents or as a tourist destination for outsiders or people from other countries, the economic growth brought by this place cannot be underestimated.

If it is destroyed, it will be a fatal blow to Kyoto, but...

Through speculation on the route, the route of the One Hundred Demons Night Parade happens to be on an open road. If nothing unexpected happens, the road will at most be trampled and damaged.

And this loss is still bearable.

On Kawaramachi-dori Street, the monster parade was already halfway through its journey, and the great Tengu, who was watching over it all from the sky, had a hideous smile on his face.

The time has come.

The great Tengu holding the great sword first glanced back and forth at the demons who were parading, checking whether any of them had left without permission.

After patrolling twice, there were neither too many nor too few monsters. All the parading monsters were here, some voluntarily and some forced.

Then Daitengu flew to the front of the team, swooped down and landed next to Huapiao, walking side by side with him, with his knife-holding hand silently placed behind his back.

Looking at the great Tengu that landed beside him, Hua Piao showed a dissatisfied expression on his face. The Night Parade of One Hundred Demons should have its own rules, and one must be in the right place.

Letting the Great Tengu fly in the sky to patrol the monsters was already giving him face, so what did it mean to fly next to him and take the first place alongside him?

"Ootengu, if you want the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons to achieve the best results, you should go back to your seat. What's the point of running to the first place now?"

Because it was Daitengu who broke the rules, Huapiao's tone of voice was extremely impolite.

"Haha, the power of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is enough."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Hua Piao frowned. This statement was unclear. Could it be that he wanted to resurrect Otakemaru right now?

However, it is impossible to accumulate enough demonic power if the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons is not completed. If Otakemaru wants to rely on the demonic power that is only half completed, his resurrection will be incomplete. No, the most likely thing is that the resurrection will fail directly.

"You must know that the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons cannot be stopped halfway. Moreover, for your purpose, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons must be carried out to the end."

Hearing Hua Piao's threatening words, Da Tengu found it ridiculous. He widened his eyes like copper bells, his eyes full of mockery.

"You said we must go all the way to the end? I don't think so, and..." Daitengu clenched the Daitonglian with his hands behind his back, looking down at Huapiao, "You seem to have forgotten another way, another... better way."

"What do you want to do..."

"puff!"

Hearing Daitengu's dangerous words, Huapiao had a guess gradually emerging in his mind. When he was about to question Daitengu, a sharp blade suddenly pierced out from Huapiao's chest.

"Hmm! Daitengu...you!"

The fiery red sharp blade looked particularly scarlet after being stained with blood. Hua Piao recognized it at a glance. It was the Daitoren that Daitengu never let go of.

And now, this Datonglian sword pierced his heart. Even for a monster, the heart would be a fatal wound, not to mention that it was the Datonglian sword that pierced him!

This sword contained one third of Otakemaru's soul, and the moment it pierced his heart, Otoren had already begun to absorb his vitality and remaining demonic power.

The sneak attack was successful.

Feeling the power gradually filling up the sword in his hand, Daitengu knew that his choice was correct. The demonic power contributed by all the monsters at the scene was definitely much greater than that generated by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, and was more suitable for the resurrection of the demon king.

"Don't worry, I will remember your dedication."

Hua Piao's eyes were filled with disbelief, pain and hatred, but he had already lost the initiative in the sneak attack and was stabbed by the knife, which meant he was doomed to death.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha!”

Da Tengu first chuckled twice, and then gradually turned it into a wild laugh, and the shrill laughter echoed in all the surrounding areas.

This sudden change made all the monsters in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons look at him. The sharp-eyed ones were shocked to find that Hua Piao's body was pierced, and the knife that pierced his body was in the hand of Daitengu.

“Hahahaha, we’ve finally come to this.”

After the wild laughter ended, Da Tengu no longer concealed his true purpose. He raised the knife in one hand and flapped his wings to soar into the sky.

Then, it turned around in mid-air, and the monster faced all the monsters, with the malice in its eyes as real as substance.

The slippery blood skewered on the blade was picked up by Daitengu, and the bright red blood was completely absorbed by Datonglian before it could flow out. Huapiao wanted to remind the monsters, but he didn't even have the strength to speak.

This sudden change not only stunned the monsters, but also the humans who were observing this place.

The Great Tengu was at the center of all attention at this moment, acting wantonly and arrogantly.

"Is this, an internal conflict?" The commander of the Ground Self-Defense Force Command looked at the scene on the screen and guessed uncertainly.

"It's possible, but we can't rule out the possibility that this is a special ritual." Another commander responded, but his tone was also full of uncertainty.

"How can there be a ritual that pierces the body and holds it high up?"

"Who can clearly define a monster? You can't define a monster with human thinking."
