Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

"Then, that person over there must be the 'new fighting force' that Miss Mordred mentioned." Kotoko Iwanaga asked, looking at Minamoto no Raikou who was standing next to Taichi.

"Well, this is Miss Raikou." Taiyi nodded, and then took the initiative to introduce her to Iwanaga Kotoko.

"...First it was Mordred, then it was Minamoto no Raikou... Taichi-kun, are you a special person who can call imaginary beings into reality?"

After all, given the inhuman strength that Mordred had displayed in front of her before, and the fact that Minamoto no Raikou, as a woman, was able to escort Taichi and Takamaki An all the way here, Iwanaga Kotoko couldn't help but make wild guesses.

"Don't guess. I won't reveal this secret information." Taichi took out the stack of kata from his pocket and handed it to Iwanaga Kotoko. "Can you use all the monsters that can distinguish the gender of humans to collect the spirits?"

"Gender classification? Oh, yes, come to think of it, those spirits don't wear clothes." Iwanaga Kotoko patted her forehead and reached out to take the stack of kata. "I will remind the monsters of this."

"Then, have you found out the whereabouts of the murderer behind the scenes?" Taiyi changed the subject to more serious issues.

"I have a clue." Iwanaga Kotoko frowned slightly, "But a cunning rabbit has three burrows. It is suspected that the murderer, the masked man of Hannya, has three hiding places in the whole Shibuya. After the second wave of fog spread, the number may have increased."

"Do we need to verify them one by one?" Iwanaga Kotoko looked at Taichi and asked, "The monsters under my command may not be able to enter those suspected hiding places."

"After all, they are not an exploration team that focuses on combat effectiveness."

"Let's divide our forces." Taiyi replied, "We now have two powerful combat talents on our side."

Mordred straightened his chest and raised his head, and Minamoto no Raikou smiled slightly.

"Let's use these two as the core of our strategy and split up to find the murderer's real hiding place."

Chapter 50 These people can't find clues without cheats

Mordred took Iwanaga Kotoko, Yukinoshita Yukino, and Yuigahama Yui with him, and the four of them headed west.

Minamoto no Raikou took Taichi, as well as Akane Shinjo and Anne Takamaki, and the four of them headed east.

While using the form to gather the scattered spirits, he rushed into the hiding place of the man who looked like the Prajna mask.

The monsters seemed unusually active because of Iwanaga Kotoko's orders. Almost every time they walked a distance, they could see little monsters holding form markers and working hard to complete their work.

Even Tengu would fly across the sky from time to time.

It was already early morning and we had officially entered the second day.

"Lord Raikou is so handsome." Takamaki An murmured, as she had been hiding in the hospital building and had not seen Minamoto no Raikou display his skills. Now she finally saw it with her own eyes.

He has excellent skills, and his fighting style is as smooth as flowing water, with an atmosphere of ancient charm.

This is Minamoto no Raikou's fighting style.

However, this fighting style is somewhat outrageous in its lethality to young men and women who are in adolescence and have some literary problems.

Anyway, Takamaki An is basically a fangirl of Minamoto no Raikou now.

"Those visitors are no match for Minamoto no Raikou, but they showed no sign of running away when facing Minamoto no Raikou." Akane Shinjo frowned and sighed, "I'm beginning to wonder if these visitors have no self-awareness and are just 'robots' controlled by simple programs."

"Shinjo, don't try to understand their style of doing things." Taichi reminded, "It will only make you feel that you are doing useless work later."

"Taiyi! Miss Shinjo! Look there! There!" Takamaki An suddenly grabbed Taiyi's arm nervously and pointed one hand to a deep alley.

At the end of the alley, there was a female visitor wearing a gray windbreaker, a round hat, and the lower half of her face was covered by a large white mask. She was holding a pair of rusty scissors in her hands.

"It's the Slit-Mouthed Woman, right? That must be the Slit-Mouthed Woman from the urban legend!"

"It's not just over there." Akane Shinjo reminded faintly, "Look around carefully, there's also a slit-mouthed woman wearing a red windbreaker, without a mask or a hat... Wow, she's so ugly!"

Under the street lamp, in the dim light, a tall and strong female visitor with pale skin charged towards Taiyi and others holding a pair of scissors.

"Coming over!"

He is over two meters tall.

"If it weren't for the iconic crack and scissors, I would have almost thought it was the silent Hachishaku-sama." Takamaki An was trying to ease her nervousness.

"Be careful, a taxi may stop and a driver dressed as a Hachishaku-sama may come out of it," joked Akane Shinjo.

"Ah? What do you mean?" Gao Juanxing looked at Shinjo Akane with a confused look on her face.

"Huh? It's just..." The expression on Akane Shinjo's face froze.

"That's scheduled to be released next year." Taiyi couldn't help but remind him, "You're talking too early."

"I, I don't know what you are talking about!" Xin Tiao Qian covered her face and didn't dare to look at Taiyi.

"Ah? Taiyi, you know about this too? It's coming out next year? What? A novel?" Takamaki An, who is still living in 2015, blinked blankly.

"There's no time to understand this." Taiyi changed the subject, "Pay attention to your surroundings, and be careful not to be dragged away by a visitor who pops out from a blind spot."

The Slit-Mouthed Woman is much stronger than the average visitor.

And it has greater mobility and strength.

The lethality of the rusty scissors in his hand has also increased, and it even brings tetanus damage.

But to Minamoto no Raikou, he was still trash that could be killed with one sword.

At most, it is because the alien visitor Slit-Mouthed Woman is faster than other alien visitors, so the speed of action must also be increased.

"Come to think of it, is the number of visitors decreasing?" Taiichi asked Minamoto no Raikou who had just returned from work.

"Yes, indeed." Minamoto no Raikou nodded and replied, "There are fewer secret spying, and before, you could see at least three or two strange visitors on almost every street, but now you can only see a small number of strange visitors every three or four streets."

"Have they been gathered somewhere?" Taiyi frowned and looked at Ikkimakum who was floating by.

"Master Taiichi, do you have something to talk to me about?" Under the control of Iwanaga Kotoko, Ichimoku obediently stopped about two meters away from Taiichi.

Because the female samurai next to Taichi gave Ichiban Muen the feeling that she would chop him with a knife if he got within two meters.

"Investigate the reasons for the mass disappearance of alien visitors and their last location before they disappeared."

"Yes, Master Taiichi, I will immediately inform the other monsters of the order." Ichiban Mumen spun his body and flew high up.

……

"Is this the nth suspected stronghold we have destroyed?" Taichi asked as he looked at the alien visitor with a ghost-like appearance who fell at Minamoto no Raikou's feet and then gradually turned into particles and dissipated.

"The sixth one." Takamaki An looked at her phone and replied, "It matches perfectly with the number of suspected bases in this direction that Ms. Iwanaga mentioned at the beginning... None of the six are real."

At three o'clock in the morning, Taiyi and others walked out of the last suspected stronghold.

"Mordred and the others didn't get any results either." Taiyi frowned and sighed, "We found no trace of the Prajna masked man in the twelve suspected bases."

"These guys are really good at playing hide-and-seek."

"Master, please stay calm." Seeing Taichi stamping his feet anxiously, Minamoto no Raikou warned him, "The other party hid his whereabouts so secretly, I think he must be planning a more important conspiracy."

"Don't lose your composure."

At this moment, Ippomon fell from the sky.

"Master Taiichi! We have found the reason for the mysterious disappearance of the aliens!" Ichiban Mumen came straight to the point, "Some of the aliens are underground trying to consume the seal barrier set up by Ultraman-sama."

"Another group of visitors gathered at the sealed barrier on the highway."

"How is it consumed?" Taiyi looked at Ippan Mumen in confusion and asked.

"Use their bodies to offset it." Ippon Mumen's lips curled up, "They are using suicide as a means to offset the effect of the sealing barrier."

"Did the visitor go there on his own initiative, or is there someone manipulating it behind the scenes?" Taiyi continued to ask.

In contrast, Mu Mian shook his body innocently, indicating that he was just a monster and had no idea about these things.

Up to now, although the visitors often attack Taiyi and others, what is the connection between them and the real culprit behind the creation of the thick fog and the barrier? If so, what is the subordinate relationship?

Is the masked man of Prajna the murderer behind the scenes or just a puppet of the murderer?

This series of questions have not been answered.

After all, from the beginning to the end, those foreign visitors showed an attitude that they could not communicate and could only be enemies.

Chapter 51 Taiyi: I am not a detective and I don’t want to find out the truth

In the game, if you want to find the truth of a case, there are game prompts to guide you to collect clues step by step.

Finally, putting all the clues together will reveal the truth.

But the reality is that there are no game prompts to guide you.

If you inadvertently take a few more steps or a few fewer steps, you may miss important clues.

This causes the entire reasoning game to become a mess.

This is what Taiyi and others are like now.

If there were clues to a normal disaster scenario, then they relied on the human forces of Mordred and Minamoto no Raikou, and the exploration capabilities of the monsters under Iwanaga Kotoko, to crumple the entire script into a ball of waste paper.

Interlocking clues?

nonexistent.

Even if there was, it was messed up by the group of people present who did whatever they thought of.

Therefore, Taiyi and others have not yet found the connection between the alien visitor and the murderer behind the scenes, and they don't even know the murderer's motive for doing such a reckless thing.

'Why', 'What', 'Where', 'When', 'Who', 'How'.

As for the Five Ws and One H, apart from knowing that there is a 'Prajna Masked Man' suspected to be the murderer, and that the murderer seems to be trying to catch people like Taiyi who can still maintain their physical body on the borderline between life and death, nothing else is known.

"If this is a mystery drama, then the current development is that the murderer has won."

"But if this is not a mystery drama, then finding the murderer and beating him to death will be our victory."

Looking at the scene of the highway intersection crowded with foreign visitors, Taiyi shook his head and sighed.

"There's no detective among us." Shinjo Akane shrugged and said, "And the detective is just watching from outside with a green face."

Outside the sealed barrier, an elementary school student wearing a small suit, a bow tie, and inappropriate large-framed glasses was standing there with a grim face, staring straight at the restless scene of a hundred demons parading at night inside the barrier.

Not far behind him stood Haibara Ai and Professor Agasa, whom Taichi had just met not long ago.

It’s a pity that we didn’t see Hakuba Tantei or Akechi Goro, two detectives who are also currently active in Tokyo.

"Um, my four lords, can you please go down first?" Ichiban Mumen, who was forced to act as a flying carrier, asked while holding on to his body. "I can't hold on any longer."

"Are you saying we are heavy?" Gao Juan Xing asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It's not the physical weight, it's the mental torture." Ichiban Muen was about to cry, "The majesty that Lord Minamoto no Raikou exudes all the time is almost killing me."

"Ah, is it my fault?" Minamoto no Raikou stroked his cheek, looked down at Ikkimune with some confusion and asked back.

"No! Absolutely not! It's all my fault! " Although Ichiban Muen was scared to death, he didn't want to anger Minamoto no Raikou, so he could only continue to hold on.

"Master, how long can this sealing barrier last?" Minamoto no Raikou turned his head and looked at Taichi and asked.

"Well, after all, it consumed enough energy to prevent X from transforming for a short period of time. Even if it covered Shibuya and several surrounding areas, it could last for ten days or half a month without backup energy. The consumption of the alien visitors is meaningless. After all, X had anticipated this situation in advance, so he set up a backup in the sealing barrier. Not to mention that the amount consumed by the alien visitors is not even the fur of the sealing barrier. Just wait for the sun to rise, and the little energy consumed will be immediately replenished by light." Taiyi replied, "Of course, I can also remove the sealing barrier after the matter is over. X left me this authority."

"Your Highness Aix is truly a wise sage." As one of the Heroic Spirits who witnessed Aix setting up this sealing barrier, Minamoto no Raikou was in awe of the power displayed by Aix.

"... Taichi, you really know a lot about that Ultraman." As the only human present who did not know the truth, Takamaki An looked at Taichi with some confusion.

"I met that Ultraman before." Taiyi replied calmly, "He reminded me of the function of this barrier."

It is meaningless to simply deny the connection with Ultraman, which will only increase others' suspicion. It would be better to do the opposite and take the initiative to confirm the fact that you have communicated with Ultraman.

"Did that Ultraman even tell you his name?" Takamaki An was quite interested in Ultraman.

"That's not the case. I call him that because of the 'X' on his chest." Taiyi didn't want to continue the conversation. "Don't tell anyone else about this, or it will make others jealous."

"Yeah, I understand." Gao Juan nodded in agreement. "After all, we have such a good relationship. When I first heard that you had met and communicated with Ultraman, I wanted to take his place, not to mention others."

"Raikou, how is it? Do you feel like someone is secretly watching you?" Taichi turned his head and asked Minamoto Raikou.

The reason why he sat on Ippan Mumian's back so arbitrarily and went up to the sky was to alert the enemy and then lure it out of its hole.

But seeing Minamoto no Raikou shaking his head apologetically, Taichi sighed helplessly.

Even though he was standing in such an obvious position, the other party still hid in the dark and refused to reveal his whereabouts, which showed that the murderer was quite afraid of the power that Minamoto no Raikou and Mordred had displayed before.

Even though we are fighting separately, the other side still doesn't dare to take the risk.

"It seems that the murderer has many fancy tricks but his hard power is far inferior to Raikou and Mordred who have demonstrated their martial arts skills so far," Taichi speculated.

The barrier that now covers the entire Tokyo, the thick fog, and the visitors that appeared with the fog were all the result of the murderer using means that Taichi and others could not understand.

Or, were those things already there, and the murderer just used some means to turn the switch that had been in the 'off' state to the 'on' state?

There are too few clues to draw any conclusions.

"Come to think of it, our current location is so clear, why don't those alien visitors come to attack us anymore?" Gao Juan Xing asked in confusion, "Didn't those alien visitors rush over to attack us when they saw us before?"
