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

As long as she wanted, she could know the 'real names' of all the monsters under her command.

"Mordred-san, please use your sword to cut down this wall." After tapping the Nekomata's forehead with her cane, Iwanaga Kotoko looked up at Mordred.

"...We don't have the money to compensate." Knowing that in modern society, damaging public property not only requires compensation but may even result in sentencing to the police, Mordred spoke cautiously.

"All debts will be borne by the 'Post-Disaster Management Department'." Iwanaga Kotoko replied, "This is the promise I got before I came in."

"Besides, even if those people deny their responsibility afterwards, the ones who destroyed the wall are still enemies. What does it have to do with us kind-hearted civilians who are working hard to collect spirits inside?" Iwanaga Kotoko blinked to show that she had as many reasons as she wanted.

It can be seen that she has no trust in those politicians.

After getting Tai's nod of agreement, Mordred knocked on the wall, tested its hardness, and then smashed it with his clenched fist.

There was no need to use the royal sword for this man-made creation; she could just punch a hole in it with her fist.

Two punches created a crack, and two more punches caused the stone to start falling, and a hole more than one meter high appeared in front of everyone.

It was pitch black, just like a one-way passage leading to the underworld.

Yukinoshita Yukino took out two flashlights from her body and directly illuminated the cave.

"...Am I the only one who thought of bringing a flashlight?" Looking at the others who didn't move, Yukinoshita Yukino asked with a slight twitch of her lips.

Chapter 56: It's Not That Simple

Taichi, who was leading the way, was looking ahead, and Yukinoshita Yukino, who was at the end, was looking at everyone's feet.

The group reached their destination safely.

A secret room hidden among the jagged rocks.

It is impossible to tell where the door of this secret room is, but the surrounding area of the suspected wall is surrounded by flowing text, which is also the reason why the existence of the secret room can be detected.

"Raikou, what do you think?" Taichi turned his head and looked at Minamoto Raikou behind him and asked.

"Just chop it off." Minamoto no Raikou took a quick look and then lost interest. "None of the trainee Onmyojis at the Onmyoji Ryo are willing to make such an inferior 'barrier'."

It seems that the thick fog and barrier are not the abilities of the "person" inside, but are activated by the other party using unknown means.

"Don't kill him. We have to force him to tell us the method to eliminate the thick fog and lift the barrier covering Tokyo." Taiyi warned as he retreated.

"Understood." Minamoto no Raikou nodded, and then remanifested the strangely shaped 'gun'.

Although this 'barrier' is inferior, Minamoto no Raikou is not sure whether touching it casually will cause any adverse effects, so it is better not to touch it if possible.

The tip of the gun was pointed at the "wall" and Minamoto no Raikou stabbed it cleanly.

“Aaaaaaa——!”

An inhuman hissing sound came from the gap created by the tip of the gun.

Then, gray gas gradually overflowed from the gap under the light of the flashlight.

"The miasma is starting to spread outward." Minamoto no Raikou warned.

"Meow!" The cat jumped onto Iwanaga Kotoko's shoulder and protected her.

As the gray mist passed over his body, Taiyi only felt as if his skin was gently rubbed by sandpaper.

There was a burning sensation and a slight scraping sensation, then it returned to normal.

"Ah!" Yuigahama Yui, who was obviously not mentally prepared, exclaimed, but soon calmed down.

After all, that feeling comes quickly and goes away quickly.

The whole process only takes two or three seconds.

At this time, the "wall" that was pierced by Minamoto no Raikou had lost its original function and turned into clods of earth that scattered around.

Taiyi immediately shone the flashlight into the secret room.

In the secret room, two strange-looking "aliens" were squatting there like tamed pets.

Both of these alien visitors were quite tall.

The shorter alien with three tails was about four meters tall when on all fours.

The other spider-like alien visitor was so tall that it made people feel sore when they craned their necks.

"A bug with nothing but a body." Minamoto no Raikou had a very low opinion of the visitor.

When Mordred saw the two alien visitors, he did not feel nervous at all. He just looked around to avoid being ambushed by the alien visitors with better concealment skills.

"Kill them! No... leave the two with pink hair alone! Kill all the others!"

A hoarse voice sounded from behind the visitor.

In the darkness, there is another person.

It’s just that the two foreign visitors were too big to be of any use, completely obscuring the other party’s figure.

"It's the Hannya masked man we met in Shibuya Hospital before!" Yukinoshita Yukino recognized the voice.

But why did he plan to keep only two people with pink hair?

Looking around at the people around her, the expression on Yukinoshita Yukino's face looked a little unhappy.

Because in the dark environment, among the group of people who met the masked man's previous requirements, the two pink-haired people present had the most prominent body advantage.

After all, she has a curvy figure.

Although Takamaki An has a great figure, she is relatively slim after all...

Minamoto no Raikou slightly bent his body, and the next moment, he rushed into the secret room at a speed that no one present except Mordred could react to.

He didn't even consider whether the other party had set other traps in the secret room.

"It shouldn't be like that." After Minamoto no Raikou left, Taichi took the initiative to retreat to Mordred's side and stood shoulder to shoulder with the girls, frowning and muttering, "The energy of those 'Visitors' strengthened and transported by the earth veins should be able to supply more than just the two slightly larger Visitors in the secret room."

In the secret room, the two alien visitors were beaten so badly by Minamoto no Raikou that they were disoriented.

Being killed can be achieved in just a few seconds.

"There should be something being consumed." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded in agreement, "It's just that we can't see it."

"Aim the light at the ground and ceiling, and then at the direction of the masked man behind the visitor," Taiyi suggested. "I don't believe he can hide so well that there won't be any trace left."

Ceiling, nothing.

There were signs of the existence of text on the ground, but the shapes of the text had long been disrupted and no one could recognize them for a moment.

After the spider-sized visitor had all its limbs cut off by Minamoto no Raikou and lay on the ground, Yukinoshita Yukino's flashlight successfully illuminated the body of the Prajna masked man.

"It's lifeless." After completely killing the two visitors, Minamoto no Raikou looked at the man with the Prajna mask, shook his head and explained to Taichi, "It's something like a puppet, with no signs of life."

"Chief!" The Prajna masked man made a gesture, followed by an angry roar, and the body under his clothes began to twitch and twist.

At the same time, the surrounding environment began to shake violently.

Except for Mordred and Minamoto no Raikou, everyone else began to instinctively hug nearby objects.

"Earthquake?" Taichi, who was hugging Yukinoshita Yukino beside him, asked in confusion.

"It shouldn't be. Earthquakes shouldn't shake like this." Yukinoshita Yukino, who was a little terrified and didn't have time to react to her current position, explained uncalmly, "This is more like the vibration caused by something heavy hitting the ground."

"I have a bad feeling," Taichi muttered dryly.

"What a coincidence, I had the same feeling." Yukinoshita Yukino smiled bitterly.

"Hey! Look at what's inside! It's so disgusting!" Thinking that she was the one who was disgusted and no one could escape this disaster, Iwanaga Kotoko shouted with a grim face as she glanced at the direction where the Prajna masked man had been before.

I saw that a hideous creature several times taller than the two visitors and with a body so distorted that it would make people lose their rationality at a glance replaced the Prajna masked man. It coiled on the ground and kept squirming.

"Ugh! Guwa——" The first person who couldn't hold it in was Yuigahama Yui. After she saw the posture of the giant beast facing her, her stomach and intestines went on strike and forced her to vomit.

Then, like a chain reaction, except for the knowledgeable Iwanaga Kotoko and Mordred, and Minamoto no Raikou who was closest to the giant beast, even Taichi was not immune and vomited.

Chapter 57 Taiyi Refuses to Listen

Boom!

Just as everyone was making obscene remarks about Iwanaga Kotoko and expressing their hatred for the masked man who had transformed into this ugly monster, the surroundings began to shake again.

Not long after they let go, the group hugged each other again.

"It's definitely not an earthquake!" Iwanaga Kotoko frowned, "It's more like some giant monster stepped on the ground and underground and caused it to shake."

"Monster, monster!" Yuigahama Yui looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who was hugging her with a pale face.

Well, after letting go of Taichi, the kid went straight to Yuigahama Yui.

"…It could be, but it could be another kind of giant beast." Yukinoshita Yukino's face turned pale, "Just like the giant beast inside, it was summoned by the masked man using other means, such as earth veins!"

At this time, the giant beast was screaming in pain after being beaten by Minamoto no Raikou.

"We have to finish this quickly." After Taichi let go of Takamaki An, he touched the phone in his pocket uneasily.

Axel hasn't recovered from his rest yet, so he can't transform.

If there really is a giant beast, then the only fighting forces we can rely on here are Mordred and Minamoto no Raikou.

"Iwanaga, haven't the monsters on your side figured out a way to stop the flow of the earth veins?" Taiyi looked at Iwanaga Kotoko and asked.

"We have to give the monsters some time." Iwanaga Kotoko pulled her hair in distress. "After all, powerful monsters usually live deep in the mountains and forests."

Well, there aren't many powerful monsters left in Tokyo, so don't count on this place too much.

That's roughly what Iwanaga Kotoko meant.

But the cat was around, and as the god of wisdom among the monsters, it was hard for her to say it too obviously.

"Master, this insect has lost its combat power and can be tortured." Minamoto no Raikou's voice drew everyone's attention.

I saw that Minamoto no Raikou had scraped off all the excess parts from the giant beast.

The knocked-down giant beast looked a little listless, but its spirit core was not seriously damaged, so it could still be rescued.

But Minamoto no Raikou was not someone who had good intentions towards his enemies. With one kick, she turned the giant beast's shell back into human form.

The mask on the face of the masked man who turned back into human form had cracks everywhere, but his appearance was not revealed.

"How to stop all this?" Taiyi went straight to the point.

"Cough cough cough!" The masked man coughed for a while, and after a long while, he weakly tilted his head to look at Taiyi.

"Is that you? The leader of this team?"

Taichi felt that he was trying to stir up conflict within the team.

So I ignored his words and just stared at him, waiting for his response.

"Raikou, give him some strength." Taiyi's face showed no hesitation and he directly asked Minamoto Raikou to take action.

Boom!

The third shake occurred at this moment.

"Ha, ha ha ha ha gaa——" the masked man suddenly sneered.

But soon this sneer was turned into a scream by Minamoto no Raikou's kick.

"I'm not interested in hearing about your motives, or how miserable you are, or what you want to achieve." Taiyi looked at the masked man and said, "I just want to know how to stop this."

"The miasma fog, the barrier that seals off Tokyo, the strange visitors outside, and this abnormal shaking."

“…It’s useless.” The masked man finally took a breath and sneered, “From the moment I started all this, I never thought there would be a moment to stop, so I didn’t make any backup plans.”

"This is a one-way road with no closing and only opening."

"If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!"

"Haha ...!"

"Master, it sounds like he didn't lie." Minamoto no Raikou replied dimly.

"This bastard never thought he would succeed from the beginning." Mordred also spoke up, "In the words of your time, he just wanted to take revenge on society?"

"Raikou, are there any other 'means' in that secret room?" Taiyi looked at Minamoto Raikou with some reluctance and asked.

"I'll go check it out." Minamoto no Raikou turned around and went back to the secret room that had been smashed to pieces, and began to check every inch of the ground.

Although she was indifferent, since the Master had given the order, she would naturally obey.
