Persona: Devil Summoner

Just when Jiang Tianwei was enjoying being the King of Guns, he suddenly felt a pain in his head. Turning back, he found that it was Cu Chulainn who had poked him on the back of the head with the butt of his gun.

"Forehead……"

"Don't do those crooked things all day long. The right thing to do is to practice your shooting skills! Come on, come on! Hurry up!"

Cu Chulainn urged Jiang Tianwei to continue practicing his spear skills. What else could Jiang Tianwei say? He could only say yes repeatedly, change back to his spear, and start practicing his spear skills again under Cu Chulainn's coercion...

"I said——".

Suddenly, Chie Satonaka started the conversation with this standard opening sentence.

"There's no need to rush into things like training, right? There will always be opportunities in the future!"

Jiang Tianwei heard the meaning of her words that she was helping him to buy some rest time, and looked at her with gratitude. Satonaka Chizhi smiled at him heartily, revealing a row of small white teeth.

Cu Chulainn frowned. "Don't humans even have this much resilience? Back when I was in the Shadow Kingdom, I would train for several days..."

"Humans can't do this kind of thing!"

When Hanamura Yosuke heard this, he couldn't help but complain. How could a human being do such a thing! Humans have to eat, drink water and sleep after all!

I remember there was a boring experiment. A person can survive 30 days without food. A person can survive 7 days without water. As for not sleeping, no one has tested it. I guess if you don’t sleep for a long time, you will definitely pass out. If you fall asleep, your sleep time will be made up! At least I haven’t heard of anyone dying from being sleepy.

While Cu Chulainn muttered that humans were really troublesome, he waved his hand impatiently, indicating that Jiang Tianwei's training for the day was over. Jiang Tianwei then breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if he had lived two lives.

Now that the training is over, the others go to the top floor of the cognitive space to wait, while Jiang Tianwei drives his motorcycle to the depths of the cognitive space to look for Senior Sanada Akihiko.

Although Senior Sanada said that he was happy to stay in this training ground, it was impossible to really leave him alone.

As you race along the tracks, it's easy to tell if Sanada is on that floor. Just listen. If there's no sound of a fierce fight, then there's definitely no Sanada. This guy's fists are definitely not silent.

Brother Sanada is located about ten levels deeper than everyone else. The shadow's combat power is much stronger, but Sanada Akihiko's combat level is obviously stronger, and his cooperation with persona is very exquisite.

It was also the first time that Jiang Tianwei saw Sanada Akihiko's persona. He looked like an ancient Roman soldier, holding a sword and a globe. Just like the impression given by Sanada, he was a persona that fought head-on.

Generally speaking, persona can be regarded as a special combat unit. There are several common combat styles: one is good at attacking and breaking through, and the main body is only responsible for assisting the persona. The other is good at hindering and assisting, and the main body is responsible for the strong attack.

There is also another type, like Sanada Akihiko, where the persona and the main body attack together, the two complement each other, and when one side finishes the attack and takes a breath, the other side will rush up to finish off the opponent, and the two can cooperate to launch a seamless attack.

However, the enemy that Brother Sanada was beating up was an elephant that walked upright! It looked as tall as two men, and as strong as seven or eight adult men huddled together. Its blue body was covered with black stripes similar to tiger stripes, and it had only one eye on its head, making it look ferocious.

Akihiko Sanada punched the Cyclops, but the elephant showed no signs of injury at all. Instead, a bloody cut was left on Akihiko Sanada's fist.

This is probably the type of enemy that Akihiko Sanada has the most trouble with. Those who enjoy playing games will understand that some developers like to make difficulty settings that make players unhappy in order to increase the difficulty. The more common ones are probability dodge, probability invincibility, or simply a certain dodge for a period of time, certain invincibility, and physical attribute invalidation, physical attack reflection, etc.

As a physical assault attacker, Akihiko Sanada is most afraid of encountering an enemy with physical reflexes like this elephant.

It's not that Sanada Akihiko doesn't have attribute attacks. If he wants, he can also use persona to release powerful lightning attribute magic to kill the giant elephant - but, as mentioned before, it's rare to meet a qualified sandbag, why rush to defeat him? It's like a teenager who skips class to play games in the arcade. Although he can speed through the game, why not play this coin for a longer time?

What is a battle maniac? It is the kind of person who pursues the fun of fighting itself. Jiang Tianwei watched Sanada Akihiko pounding on the demon elephant. Although under the influence of the demon's own attributes, Sanada's fists did not cause any damage at all...

But, no matter how you look at it, Brother Sanada has the absolute upper hand. This man completely treats his opponent as a moving target, just like Wing Chun hitting a wooden man. Sanada Akihiko has few rivals to begin with, and when he saw such a good target today, of course he excitedly displayed all his boxing skills.

"Um, Sanada-san, it's almost time for us to leave..."

"Don't be in a hurry. It's rare to meet an opponent who is so hard to kill. Let me fight for a while longer!"

Akihiko Sanada showed a bloody smile and his fists became more and more ferocious.

What else could Jiang Tianwei do? He could only awkwardly try to persuade Sanada-senpai to return home soon...

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 289 No matter what the reason is, I just ask you whether you love me or not!

It was more than ten minutes later that Sanada Akihiko returned to the entrance.

For a full ten minutes, the One-eyed Demon Elephant was beaten to tears. He couldn't run away, and couldn't hit anyone. He could only be passively beaten by Akihiko Sanada. The key point is, if you were really beaten to death, you would be lucky. Unfortunately, he possessed the characteristic of physical reflex, which was specifically designed to counter Akihiko Sanada, and Akihiko Sanada couldn't kill him at all.

The result was that I was forced to be a punching bag for a long time... This shows the danger of people like Sanada Akihiko... Battle maniacs are really scary! No wonder they say that humans are more terrifying than demons! What kind of level is it to be able to beat a demon to tears!

In the end, the demon elephant almost cried and begged Jiang Tianwei to kill him quickly so that he would not suffer while alive.

This was the first time Jiang Tianwei had heard such a request. The last time he saw such a scene was in Stephen Chow's movie, where Fang Tangjing arrogantly shouted: Come on, hit me! A similar scene also appeared in A Chinese Odyssey, where Elder Tang's nagging homely talk actually talked the Bull Demon King's little monster to death.

It can be seen that what those literary masters said about the pen being like a knife is very reasonable.

Of course, under the watchful eye of Brother Sanada, Jiang Tianwei couldn't really kill this target... er, this one-eyed demon elephant, so Jiang Tianwei compromised and asked him to join his mobile phone demon army directly, which ended this one-sided beating.

At the same time, Jiang Tianwei swore in his heart that he would never bring Sanada Akihiko to the cognitive space again. What was going on?!

I don't know if it's because I've been in the space for too long, but Jiang Tianwei feels extremely tired all over. Moreover, it's not physical fatigue, but mental fatigue. It's like a social animal who has not rested for a whole month and finally returned home. He can't muster the energy to do anything else, and just wants to lie down for a while without doing anything.

Moreover, maybe because of his mental confusion, Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but start thinking about some realistic things...

For example, Medjed.

Basically, if you don't understand Egyptian mythology or don't play some games related to Egyptian mythology, you will hardly have heard of this name.

Medjed is the name of an Egyptian god. The style of the painting is… well, do you know ghosts? Isn’t the oldest ghost a flying white sheet? Add a pair of eyes on it, and then a pair of legs below, and this is Medjed.

When Jiang Tianwei saw the pictures online, he thought it was another funny comic or weird game that deconstructed the gods. After all, these Japanese could draw airplanes, battleships, tanks and even their own head of state into beautiful girls. So, wouldn't it be easy for them to make fun of foreign gods?

What surprised Jiang Tianwei was that the original god Medjed in the ancient Egyptian murals actually looked like he was covered with a bed sheet. The shape was really avant-garde.

However, no matter how hard he searched, Jiang Tianwei could not find the so-called foreign hacker group.

Come to think of it, they are a hacker group. If you just want to search for them casually on the Internet, it would be too disrespectful of their professionalism.

He had clearly boasted before that he would bear the consequences of his own actions, but now Jiang Tianwei really has no other choice.

Although the setting of high school student super hackers is very common in the game and animation circles - and they are usually beautiful girls, super hackers in reality are really rare, let alone young beautiful girls...

(If only there were some hacker demon.)

Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but sigh again.

At this time, he was staying at his home, taking off half of his clothes, revealing a strong arm. Wu Jianmiao was tying his upper arm with an elastic band while preparing a syringe for drawing blood.

Medicine... no, it should be said that most sciences are about piling up a large number of samples. That's why one of the compulsory courses for medical students is to raise mice. Jiang Tianwei has always been affectionately called "little white mouse" by Wu Jianmiao. Unexpectedly, this nickname finally became a reality today.

Wu Jianmiao was in a good mood. She was the type who loved doing research. She had been so gloomy before because Eden disease was difficult to cure and she had to develop a new drug before Meihe's condition worsened. Time was tight and she didn't know when the deadline would come. Now there was no deadline, and there was no difficult puzzle to solve.

Her current job is to explore the mysteries of Jiang Tianwei's demonic body, which can be said to be a complete blank sheet of paper in the history of medicine. You can make new discoveries by doing anything. Naturally, Wu Jianmiao is very motivated - especially when she can use the excuse of doing research to do something else.

"I can understand the doctor drawing blood, but what's with this feeling the ribs?!"

Jiang Tianwei himself didn't have much to say, but Fang Zexia pouted and looked at Wu Jianmiao unhappily as he put his right hand on her exposed ribs, gently stroking them through the skin, and occasionally pinching a piece with two fingers.

Fortunately, Wu Jianmiao couldn't hear Fang Zexia's voice, otherwise the two of them would definitely quarrel. When the time comes, add Nuwa... It is said that three women make a drama, and the ancients are not wrong. Jiang Tianwei thought so in his heart.

The blood draw was quickly completed. Jiang Tianwei looked at the several full tubes in front of him, sighed, and asked, "So, doctor, can I get dressed now?"

"Please."

Wu Jianmiao said this, but he had no intention of taking his hand away from his ribs.

This look was really provocative, and Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but feel a little hot on his face. It was obvious that Wu Jianmiao was teasing him, but even though he knew it, his heart still beat wildly.

"Hey Jiang Jiang! Give her a lesson!"

Fang Zexia was obviously very dissatisfied with Wu Jianmiao's overly intimate attitude. She made a boxing stance in mid-air and punched Wu Jianmiao in the face several times. However, the fists passed through Wu Jianmiao's face very naturally and did not cause any damage at all. Wu Jianmiao himself didn't even know that he was being beaten in the air. That was really empty.

"Um, doctor..."

In order to prevent Fang Zexia from continuing to shoot in the air, Jiang Tianwei reluctantly said, "So what are you checking?"

“Ever heard of the knee-jerk reaction?”

"I heard."

"It's the rib version of that test."

"You must be lying to me, right?"

"Ah."

Wu Jianmiao admitted lightly that he was lying, leaving Jiang Tianwei at a loss. Sometimes it's like this, you are prepared for the other party to make trouble, but the other party admits it very readily, and you feel that you have prepared yourself for nothing, and you feel powerless.

As if noticing the subtle expression on Jiang Tianwei's face, Wu Jianmiao pretended to close his eyes: "I thought young boys all liked this."

"Well, if you have to ask me whether I like it or hate it, then I can only say I like it."

"Then why are you asking for a reason... Could it be that boys nowadays can't express their desires without finding some excuse? Well... then... have you heard of massage that stimulates lymphatic secretion?"

"I've seen it in some comics."

"Then will you accept what I said?"

“It feels much more acceptable.”

Jiang Tianwei honestly expressed his thoughts, and Fang Zexia flew in front of him angrily, with her arms wide open, blocking Jiang Tianwei's sight. Looking at her angrily expression, Jiang Tianwei suddenly understood why so many people who keep pets like to rub them regardless of whether their pets are happy or not. Because they are really cute.

Perhaps he was tired of playing, so Wu Jianmiao put away his hands. Jiang Tianwei quickly took the opportunity to put on his clothes.

If the other party is a man, this kind of groping behavior is usually called "dirty hands", but if the other party is a woman, I don't know what to call it.

Jiang Tianwei could only sigh that the world is really unfair to men! He ate a simple meal. Wu Jianmiao was in charge of lunch, but we couldn't expect much from someone who values ​​efficiency. Lunch was curry bought from Lubron on the same street.

(Leblanc...ah...)

When Jiang Tianwei saw Lu Blan, he couldn't help but think of the tit-for-tat argument he had with Amamiya Lian not long ago.

He took a bite of the curry that was beginning to cool down, feeling disappointed. He thought that it was indeed a curry cooked by professionals, and it was still delicious even when it was cold. Just as he was concentrating on the food, his cell phone suddenly rang... It was a text message.

"Master! Come quickly! I met a strange guy!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 290 You believe in the lucky stone but you don’t believe that I am Qin Shi Huang, right?

As a boxing coach, Jiang Tianwei did have many students, but usually, the students called him teacher or coach.

As a member of the Phantom Thieves, Jiang Tianwei did accept Sumire Yoshizawa into the group, but she only called him senior.

Besides this, do I have anyone who can be called a disciple? I can be called a disciple of Cu Chulainn, but have I ever been a master to anyone?

Feeling confused, Jiang Tianwei opened his phone and clicked on the message details.

The sender's name is Chihaya Mifune.

To be honest, when Jiang Tianwei saw this name, his first reaction was: Who is this person?

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out. It wasn't until he saw the girl's head was a tarot card that Jiang Tianwei remembered: Oh! Isn't this the female fortune teller I met in Shinjuku before!

He even made up an image of a Chinese Taoist priest with boundless magical powers. As a result, his crude tricks actually deceived the girl, which made him feel very guilty.

When he thought of his last trip to Shinjuku, Jiang Tianwei felt grief from the bottom of his heart: on that day, the Phantom Thieves lost an important person, that is, the assault team leader Ryuji Sakamoto.

That day, Sakamoto Ryuji also lost something important, and he died that day.

The combination of these two sad things should have resulted in heart-wrenching pain like hell, but why did it turn out like this? Jiang Tianwei wanted to laugh every time he recalled the scene where Long Si was held down by the shoulders and forcibly dragged away by two male sisters, and he couldn't help it.

This feeling is just like every time he watches Stephen Chow's movies, he would burst into laughter whenever the killer "Ruhua" from behind appears.

(Ryuji, be thankful that your sacrifice was not in vain. At least you have proved that your comedic talent is world-class.)

Jiang Tianwei thought so and quickly replied to her with his finger: "So? What's the matter?"

This sentence, which switched freely between English and Japanese, not only highlighted the core issue but also seemed very playful and not awkward. Jiang Tianwei even wanted to stand up and applaud his own mechanism.

"I have a very difficult guest! I hope Master can help me!"

Difficult guests?

Jiang Tianwei thought about it. There was no doubt that Mifune Chihaya was very cute. Moreover, she had a simple personality and didn't seem to have a very good mind, a little too simple. This kind of girl would definitely attract many perverts.

Moreover, for a person like him, the only thing others can rely on is his fists. Jiang Tianwei immediately made a judgment: Maybe this girl has been harassed by a hooligan?

Especially with the recent case of Wu Jianmiao, it can be seen how much impact Jincheng's surrender has had on the order of the entire underground world. This is a bit like Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's comment on himself can be translated into plain language as follows: "If I, Cao Mengde, were not here, I don't know how many people would be emperors and kings in the world today."

Although Jincheng is far inferior to Cao Cao in level, this example is extremely appropriate, because with the fall of Jincheng, the already chaotic situation became even more chaotic, and it is understandable that the gangsters who had nowhere to go would mess around everywhere.

However, Jiang Tianwei still made two mistakes in his habitual thinking: First, he had met Mifune Chihaya once before, so how could she know that he was a militant? Second, if he really encountered a gangster making trouble, the normal first reaction would of course be to call the police, so why did he send him a message?

This is the drawback of inertial thinking, or empiricism.

At this time, although Jiang Tianwei, this good old man who was too obsessed with saving people, was not very willing, he still stopped a taxi and went straight to Shinjuku.

Because it is still daytime, Shinjuku is not very lively. After all, Shinjuku is most attractive at night. Moreover, many bars are closed during the day, so even if people want to have some fun, they will not come here.

However, Chihaya Mifune's fortune-telling stall is open all year round, except when it rains. It can be said that it is very reliable.
