Tokyo Knights: The Odd Jobs X Files

Donovan, the vice president of "DOATEC", is dissatisfied with the current research and development direction of "DOATEC" and plans to develop the original "mechanical exoskeleton" into "biomodified warrior".

President Fim disagreed with this, and the two engaged in a fierce battle of wits, which ultimately led to the "DOA" competition.

This is the version of the power struggle within "DOATEC" that these guests heard, and it's what Fim and Donovan intentionally leaked to the outside world.

To be honest, these guests weren't really interested in the route competition between the two sides; they were just there for the thrill. After all, the official announcement of the event didn't mention it, but the name "Dead or Alive" itself suggested that this event was going to be bloody.

However, when Donovan's modified warriors made their official appearance, the guests were surprised to find that Donovan was quite something, actually able to come up with something like this. Interesting!

The opponent's strange appearance did not frighten Kasumi. She was a ninja from the Ninja Village and would not be so easily intimidated.

The four-armed modified warrior roared, uttering a sound unlike that of a human. Two of its four arms transformed into blades, while the other two grew horny, hammer-like appendages, as it charged towards Xia.

"This is outrageous!"

On the top deck of the ship, Fim was so angry when he saw this that he punched the window. Luckily, the window was made of bulletproof glass, otherwise, this punch would have made Fim's hand bleed profusely.

Well done, Donovan! You said you banned the use of weapons so that the fighters' power could be showcased to the fullest extent, but so that's what you were up to!

These modified warriors, their bodies are their weapons, while the fighters are now truly unarmed!

Fim was furious, but the rules of the game had already been set, and even he couldn't change them on the spot. He could only watch the game continue.

His agitation wasn't because of Kasumi, since he wasn't familiar with her. He was worried about his daughter, Helena, who was also a participating fighter. What would happen to her when facing these killing machines?

Thinking of this, Fim couldn't help but glance at Lei Dao behind him.

If Helena gets hurt during the match, then without a doubt, the person who claims to be her bodyguard will kill her without hesitation.

Ah Xin said he'd arranged the best bodyguard for me to ensure my safety, but where is that bodyguard? In this cabin, besides him and Lei Dao, there's only a defenseless cleaning lady!

The cleaning lady, Muriel, blinked and quietly watched Fim and Rado.

Chapter 699 Life is like a play, all about acting skills

The battle between the first modified warrior and Xia ended quickly. Although this modified warrior was extremely strong and fast, reaching the level of a first-class prodigy, he was still not difficult for Xia to deal with. As the younger sister of the leader of the Heavenly God Gate, Xia's talent was even higher than that of her brother, Gale, so she easily defeated the first modified warrior.

"It's done!"

Xia flicked her ponytail, appearing confident and composed.

Ayane was annoyed to see Kasumi like this. If her opponent was only like this, she could easily take her down.

The host of the event quickly announced: "Kasumi has won the first match. For the second match, please welcome Ayane and Warrior No. 2!"

Ayane was overjoyed to hear the host's voice. She was just about to show off when the host called her up. She was determined not to let Kasumi steal the spotlight!

Determined to prove herself, Ayane headed towards the arena.

"Oshin!"

After Ayane entered the arena, Rachel approached Li Xin and said to him, "That modified warrior just now, I felt its aura was somewhat familiar."

In fact, Li Xin had the same feeling, but he couldn't quite put his finger on why it felt familiar. Now, hearing Rachel say that, he instantly realized something: "It's the 'Demon God'!"

If there's one aura that both Li Xin and Rachel are familiar with, it's only the "Demon God."

Rachel nodded vigorously: "That's right, it's the 'Demon God'. I think I can sense the aura of the 'Demon God' from these modified warriors."

It should be noted that Rachel is a Viger with "Demon God bloodline" and an extremely strong bloodline. She is also a "Demon God Hunter" who has been hunting "Demon Gods" all along. She is extremely familiar with the aura of "Demon Gods". Therefore, even though the "Demon God" aura on these modified warriors was well hidden, Rachel still recognized them after the battle.

"Demon God"... Besides the "Serpent Power", did Donovan even spare the power of the "Demon God"?

Li Xin's heart sank slightly.

In terms of power, the "Orochi Power" is definitely much stronger than the "Demon God's" power; the two cannot even be discussed together.

The problem is that the "Orochi Power" has very high requirements for its host. Apart from the "Orochi Clan", even a martial arts prodigy like Noga, who has amazing talent, has been wiped out by the backlash of the "Orochi Power".

The power of the "Demon God" is different. Its requirements for the host are much lower than those of the "Orochi Power." Although people who are transformed into "Demon Gods" become mindless monsters, it is clear that Donovan has found a way to overcome this weakness by combining the power of the "Demon God" with that of humans to create puppets that are completely obedient to him.

If such soldiers could be mass-produced and deployed in war, they would likely have a huge impact on the entire world order.

While Li Xin and Rachel were talking, Ayane's battle was over. She had easily defeated her opponent. Although the inability to use weapons weakened Ayane's fighting ability, she still seemed to handle the modified warrior with ease.

After defeating her opponent, Ayane turned to look at Kasumi and gave her a provocative look.

Kasumi, naturally not to be outdone, snorted, indicating that Ayane's performance was nothing special.

After the second match ended, the modified warriors quickly dispatched their third warrior.

These modified soldiers have no names, only numbers like No. 1, No. 2, and the third one to appear is naturally No. 3.

The opponent fighting against Warrior Number Three was a contestant Li Xin didn't recognize. He was quickly defeated by the modified warrior as soon as he entered the arena, which was a victory for the modified warriors and showed them that the modified warriors were not just toys that looked intimidating.

The match then entered an accelerated phase, with Donovan's modified warriors winning one after another. Unlike the fighters, whose strength varied greatly, the modified warriors were of very average strength, with the lowest being a Level 1 Prodigy. On the other hand, Level 2 Prodigies were the majority on the fighters' side, with a few Level 3 Prodigies who had made it into the official competition due to good luck. Naturally, they lost more often than they won against the modified warriors.

Fortunately, although the modified warriors were generally stronger, the real experts were the fighters. After the modified warriors won several matches in a row, an old man defeated one of the modified warriors with a powerful and straightforward "Six Harmonies Mind-Intent Fist".

After defeating the modified warrior, the old man let out a long sigh and said, "Such a monster is a true blasphemy against martial arts!"

Although these modified warriors possessed immense strength and speed, this strength was not something they had acquired through training. They couldn't fully coordinate their abilities with their power, making them utterly vulnerable to a master like the old man.

The old man also realized that while these monsters couldn't defeat true masters, they were enough to crush ordinary fighters. True masters were indeed unafraid of these monsters, but true masters were a minority. If the existence of these monsters became widespread, it would likely cause many fighters to lose faith in diligent training and instead…

Sigh, these things are too much for an old man like him, who can barely take care of himself, to worry about. Oh well, let's wait until he gets his bonus first...

The old man shook his head and then walked off the field.

"Yuan Fu has won the eleventh match. For the twelfth match, please welcome Helena Douglas and Warrior No. 12!"

Helena took a deep breath and was about to walk towards the arena when she heard Li Xin say to her, "Helena, be careful. If you can't handle it, surrender immediately. Your safety is the most important thing."

Judging solely from their aura, the weakest of these modified warriors is a Level 1 Prodigy. Although their intelligence seems to be somewhat suppressed and their attacks are a bit rigid, making them less powerful than normal fighters, they are still somewhat dangerous to Helena.

Helena knew all this, and she told Li Xin, "Don't worry, Ah Xin, I definitely won't be reckless."

Although Helena also wanted to defeat her opponent fairly and squarely in the arena as a fighter, she was still very sensible and knew that the current situation was dangerous. Her safety was not only related to herself, but also to the entire "DOATEC", so she would not act recklessly.

Even when her opponent was a modified warrior from Donovan's side, Helena still politely bowed to her opponent as she stepped onto the arena.

However, the modified warrior was not buying it. After the referee announced the start of the match, he immediately rushed towards Helena, with sharp blades like wings growing from his body and fangs growing from his mouth, making him look like a ferocious beast.

Helena knew from watching the competition from the sidelines that these modified warriors were grotesque and terrifying, and she was mentally prepared. However, when she faced these monsters up close, she still felt a strong sense of unease.

Fortunately, beneath Helena's delicate appearance lies a strong heart. In front of so many people, she is determined to protect the honor of the Douglas family no matter what.

As the modified warrior charged, Helena immediately crouched down, lowering her body to make the warrior's attack miss, and then struck the warrior in the abdomen from above, knocking him back.

After landing a successful blow, Helena immediately lowered her shoulders and elbows, unleashing a series of attacks that forced the modified warrior to retreat repeatedly.

can win!

Helena was overjoyed and wanted to press her advantage, but suddenly a warning signal came to her mind. She quickly took a step back, only to see the wings on the back of the modified warrior unfold, and the blade-like feathers shot towards Helena. Helena quickly dodged.

However, despite Helena's swift and agile movements, snaking and leaping, she was still unable to completely dodge the continuous barbs. Each of her arms was struck by a barb, leaving cuts.

Stimulated by the sight of blood, the modified warrior became even more excited and charged towards Helena. A gaping maw opened in his abdomen, from which shot out a barbed tongue that coiled towards Helena.

Helena dared not let such a disgusting and dangerous thing touch her, and quickly dodged. However, because she was too focused on the tongue, she neglected the feather blade and was shot in the calf by it, instantly reducing her mobility.

Oops!

Helena knew something was wrong, but before she could react, the modified warrior rushed in front of her, opened his belly maw, and bit her.

At the critical moment of life and death, Helena suddenly unleashed a power from who-knows-where. Ignoring her injuries, she turned around to avoid the modified warrior and delivered a counter-slash to the passing warrior.

The modified warrior was attacked from behind, and its wings automatically retaliated. However, because too many feather blades had been fired before, new feather blades had not yet grown, and the two bare wings were not very lethal. Helena let the wings lash her, determined to seize this only chance to win and launch a fierce attack on the modified warrior.

Finally, a "crack" sound of bone breaking was heard, and the modified warrior let out a wail. It turned out that Helena had broken his spine, and he fell to the ground unable to get up.

With the enemy rendered incapacitated, Helena finally breathed a sigh of relief. The adrenaline surge she had felt in that critical moment vanished instantly, leaving her completely drained of strength, and she involuntarily fell backward.

Helena didn't land on the hard, cold deck, but instead nestled in a strong embrace.

Li Xin helped Helena up and used his "Mingyu True Qi" to heal her injuries, asking, "Are you feeling better?"

Helena nodded with difficulty: "Much better, thank you."

Li Xin said, "You're welcome. Protecting you is my job."

No, I mean, thank you for trusting me and not interrupting this fight.

Helena thought to herself.

Just as Li Xin was healing Helena, the modified warrior who had been lying motionless on the ground suddenly jumped up and pounced on Li Xin and Helena. As he pounced on them, the modified warrior's body continued to swell, and his whole body inflated like a balloon.

Besides this modified warrior, at the same time, several other particularly burly modified warriors rushed onto the arena, their bodies also swelling up, forming a pincer attack on Li Xin and Helena.

"Oh!"

All the modified warriors exploded together, their sounds merging into one, a deafening explosion rising into the air. Flesh bombs blasted through the arena, creating thick clouds of blood mist. Fim, watching the match from inside the ship's cabin, couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Helena!"

As the explosion rang out, chaos erupted at the scene. The remaining modified warriors, as if receiving some kind of order, suddenly began to attack the fighters. Mai Shiranui and the others originally wanted to go to the arena to check on Li Xin's condition, but they were forced to stay away by the attacks of these modified warriors.

Only the two modified warriors did not move, but stared intently at the arena.

As the blood mist dissipated, Li Xin held Helena in his arms. Helena was unharmed, but Li Xin knelt on one knee, blood flowing down his mask.

"How could this be? My true energy..."

Li Xin let out a terrified cry.

Seeing this, the two modified warriors finally took action. They ripped off their cloaks, revealing their true faces, namely Nuga and Vega, who were wearing special combat suits.

"Hahaha! 'X,' your death is nigh!"

Nuga and Li Xin had the deepest grudge, so Nuga was the first to strike, starting with "Gale Fist" followed by "Caesar Emperor Wave".

Li Xin first threw Helena to Leona for her protection, then faced Nuga's attack alone.

With a flick of his wrists, Li Xin used a "transfer" technique to redirect Nuga's "Gale Fist," causing it to collide with the subsequent "Caesar Emperor Wave."

The "Gale Fist" and the "Caesar Emperor Wave" collided, unleashing a violent impact that sent Li Xin staggering about, almost rolling on the ground.

Seeing this, Nuga became even more certain that Li Xin had been poisoned, and couldn't help but say to Vega, "Vega, what are you waiting for!"

Vega had been hesitant at first, but seeing Li Xin's actions and with Nuga urging him on, he finally made his move. He channeled his mental energy, his entire body radiating blue light, and he flew towards Li Xin like an arrow.

Before Li Xin could regain his footing, Vega's barrage of attacks came at him, leaving him struggling to defend himself and looking quite disheveled.

Vega sensed that Li Xin's resistance was weak and began to believe that Li Xin was indeed poisoned and unable to use his true energy. Overjoyed, he flew to Li Xin's head and stomped on him repeatedly.

Nuga, of course, would not let such an opportunity pass by. He charged straight at Li Xin and delivered a heavy punch, joining forces with Vega to attack from above and below. Let's see how Li Xin can escape now.

Li Xin, struggling to resist Vega's attack, hurriedly used the "Arhat's Disarming" technique from the "Six Gods Manual," using minimal force to deflect a powerful attack. Suddenly, Nuga and Vega felt that their attacks had not landed, and then they were mysteriously tossed aside.

"That brat, he has so many weird moves!"

Having suffered a loss at Li Xin's hands, he grew even angrier, and then saw Li Xin kneel down on one knee, with more and more blood flowing from under his mask, which immediately made him feel happy.

So what if you have so many tricks up your sleeve? You're still going to die here today!

Li Xin bit open the blood sac he was holding in his mouth, spat out the blood, and clutched his chest, saying to Nuga and Vega, "You actually poisoned me, how despicable!"

"Hahaha, kid, in this world, there's only winning and losing, nothing despicable!"

Nuga laughed heartily, overjoyed to see his former formidable enemy in such a sorry state; the fifty million dollars he had spent was well worth it!

Chapter 700 Blood Hand

Yes, in this world, there is only winning and losing, not anything despicable or not... So if you get tricked, don't blame others!

Listening to Nujia's arrogant words, Li Xin muttered to himself.

"Stop talking nonsense, just kill him!"

Vega said to Nuga, and at the same time, he jumped high into the air, stood with his feet together, and pressed down on Li Xin with the force of Mount Tai.

Nuga was slightly dissatisfied. As a proper villain, how could he not make more declarations of victory at such a critical moment?

Fortunately, Nuga knew that the important matter was paramount, and his prosthetic eye fired a red laser beam to assist Vega in attacking Li Xin.

Li Xin dodged awkwardly, and Vega landed, stomping a huge crater in the deck. Having failed to land a hit, Vega leaped up and unleashed a series of powerful kicks, striking Li Xin squarely in the chest and sending him staggering backward.

"Oshin!"

Mai Shiranui, who was fighting the modified warriors, saw Li Xin falling behind and immediately called out in concern, almost getting injured by the modified warriors around her.

Rachel was equally nervous. Li Xin was her and Alma's savior. It could be said that Li Xin was the most important person to Rachel besides Alma. Seeing Li Xin in danger, she wished she could rush up and take his place.

Seeing that Mai Shiranui and Rachel were distracted in the battle, Ayane said, "Never mind that for now, focus on what's in front of you!"

Unlike Mai Shiranui and Rachel, Ayane knew that Li Xin was just acting to lure out all the enemies. However, seeing Mai Shiranui and Rachel's nervousness, Ayane couldn't help but click her tongue, thinking, "Two more to share the spoils..."
