Is that where the enemy is now?

Looking up, through the vision of teammates' coordinates, the monster girl could vaguely see the coordinates of Jotaro and Hassan the Cursed Arm, who were about two or three meters away from her. They seemed to be upstairs, constantly moving and seemed to be fighting with someone.

[The enemy's main body should be in the real world, and is fighting with the two teammates above]

The next moment Gu Mingdijue explained to Lin Yi through the mental link.

[Above? ]

Following Lin Yi who raised his head, his eyes moved between the coordinates of Jotaro and the Curse Arm, thinking about where the enemy might be.

It can be seen that the two people are facing basically the same direction. So, if we extend the angle of the two sides' facing directions and interweave the two lines...

Lin Yi took out the modified high-powered revolver and aimed it at a certain position above his head.

The bullet that Neil Tate blocked with his bulletproof vest was a special bullet that Lin Yi weakened in order to ensure the injection of the drug, and it was easy to break and stay inside the human body. Considering the power of this bullet, Lin Yi took a high-powered pistol from the motorcycle as a precaution.

However, there will inevitably be fire at the moment the gun is fired.

And when light appears in this completely dark world, those shadow spikes will probably appear immediately.

[Are you ready? ]

Lin Yi asked Gu Mingdijue through telepathy.

[I will protect Ritsuka, you protect yourself]

Komeiji Jue merely replied in a cold tone, his small hand wrapped around the wrist of Ritsuka, who was taller than him, ready to take action at any time.

[Then, 3, 2——]

boom!

There was a loud bang, followed by the sound of something being cut and torn.

Jotaro took two steps back, and the place where he had just stood had been completely cut off by the black shadow. The cut-off part directly overlapped with the shadow, and then disappeared without a trace.

"Ah, that's enough..."

Wiping the bloody cut on the side of his cheek, Jotaro frowned and stared at the figure in front of him.

Black shadows are flying.

The black shadow spreading from the ground surrounded the old woman sitting on the bench like countless tentacles. As if it had vitality, it encompassed the area of ​​more than ten meters around her and almost completely wrapped up the old woman herself.

The sunlight shining from behind the severed railings completely illuminated the square, and the shadows wandered around in the light, moving in all directions of the square like deadly poisonous snakes.

Move, squirm, tremble, and then attack.

"Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola—"

Star Platinum's arm swung out an afterimage, shattering all the instantly materialized shadows that were about to hit Jotaro.

The speed of these shadows is really too fast.

It was so fast that the Cursed Arm could only barely maneuver twice before a shadow spike pierced its stomach and threw it away. It was so fast that Jotaro, who was facing these shadow spikes head-on, was actually unable to do anything about them after continuous fighting. He could only protect himself, and sometimes he would even get cut by one or two wounds before he could react.

Shadows are created by light, so can the maximum attack speed of these shadow spikes approach the speed of light?

"Eula Ola Ola——"

The black shadow shattered under Star Platinum's fist.

Jotaro retreated once again. Black shadows spread out from under his feet. The moment he retreated, the shadows trembled and disappeared. A part of the ground was also torn off, or in other words, a part of it disappeared out of thin air.

The places to stand are getting smaller and smaller.

Jotaro lowered his head and looked at the messy and broken ground, his brows furrowed even more.

The enemy had been destroying the ground silently, causing him to gradually lose his standing position. Gradually he had no way to move and could only stand still and take the beating.

Just like a cautious predator, it gradually forces its prey into a desperate situation, slowly and steadily, killing its opponent bit by bit, putting it in a situation where it can no longer resist.

"Oh my, it's really fast! This is the first time that my spikes have been shattered by continuous direct hits..."

A long sigh sounded from among the shadows at this moment.

"That shadow behind you is a little too powerful. Supernatural powers are the only thing that makes us Guilings superior to humans. But you have such a powerful power. Does that mean that humans today have already eliminated this last disadvantage?"

As the old man seemed to be speaking with great emotion, the wriggling shadows became more and more violent, rushing in from all directions one after another, completely blocking all the space for Jotaro to hide and stabbing straight forward.

An attack that was no different from the previous one.

No, that's not right!

Jotaro suddenly widened his eyes and saw the torn iron plates emerging from the shadows.

The torn ground was cut by shadows at this moment and divided into countless tiny pieces.

The fragments fell like a rain curtain, landing around Jotaro.

Countless fragments cast countless tiny shadows under the light.

Then, these extremely tiny shadows turned into sharp spikes and all came out in an instant, ten times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times the number, locking down Jotaro in the middle from all directions and piercing through him.

This number... it's impossible to stop it...

"Eula!"

With a sudden punch, the ground was shattered. The next moment, Jotaro was dragged by one leg by Star Platinum and directly to the corridor downstairs. Then Star Platinum swung his fist upwards again, and in a series of punches far exceeding the speed of sound, all the shadow spikes that fell from above and were about to hit Jotaro were shattered.

puff!

However, a spike had already pierced through the ground downstairs. Jotaro, who had no time to dodge, could only adjust his position in mid-air. Then, the spike pierced his foot on the spot, and blood gushed out instantly. Then Star Platinum had no time to break the spike.

The silent shadow had fallen along the hole above his head, covering the walls and the ground on both sides, and extending out spikes again.

But this time, Jotaro had already reacted.

"Eula!"

Star Platinum, holding two pieces of metal fragments in his hand, swung his hands violently, throwing one to the left side of the corridor and the other to the right side of the corridor.

The street lamps in the corridor exploded in an instant. The spike pierced through one lamp, and then pierced through the second lamp, breaking all the street lamps in the corridor along the way. The two fragments flew to both sides, extinguishing the light sources in the corridor directly, plunging the corridor into darkness.

In the darkness, most of the surging spikes disappeared, and only in the area illuminated by the light cast by the hole above the head could the wriggling of the spikes be seen.

"Eula Ola Ola——"

After another confrontation, Jotaro dragged his injured leg into the darkness, and the shadow attack could no longer find his location.

"He still failed to stay and was not able to confront and suppress Neiltart's clone head-on. Now he reacted quickly and escaped from the desperate situation. This man will be a problem for us, and a very, very serious problem."

The old woman stood up tremblingly with a sigh, her voice full of emotion.

"Even so, you are not going to take action?"

"Oh, that's right. The only thing worth caring about for you is that legend."

"As long as this ship doesn't stop, you won't care about any enemies. After all, your power is truly unmatched."

So when Neiltat couldn't control his madness yesterday, you decided not to take action, and you didn't let me take action either, so that the Returned Soul Hunters on the ship wouldn't realize the truth and mislead them into thinking that there were only two or three low-level Returned Souls left on the ship at most.

So at this moment, I have to deal with these enemies by myself, because you don't care about them at all. Even though these humans of unknown origin possess the power to kill the King of Guiling, and are obviously hiding something, you still refuse to divide your attention on them, because you only care about that legend, that illusory, unknown true or false legend, which is the last hope for the Guiling people today.

However, the problem is not big.

It is not particularly difficult to eliminate these enemies. After confirming that they should have some means of psychological communication, I have already divided them into two parts in advance. Although it is indeed unexpected that Lin Yi can enter the shadow space, now that they are trapped in the [Second Layer], I can do nothing and let them stay there until they starve to death or die of lack of oxygen.

So next, let’s focus on killing Jotaro Kujo.

Although she couldn't explain why, the old woman felt that this man was quite dangerous. She always felt that he must have some ability that he hadn't used yet. Especially last night, when they were undoing Neil Tate's trick in the restaurant, all the surveillance failed at the same time, and no one saw what happened, as if they were deliberately blocking the activation of some ability. This made the old woman feel quite uneasy.

These people are obviously not Returning Soul Hunters, but it’s as if... as if they already knew in advance that the three Returning Soul Kings were gathering, and they kept hiding their strength in the battle, waiting for them to reveal their flaws, and preparing to defeat them one by one.

It was like a messenger sent by God specifically to destroy them.

Among these messengers, the one that made her feel most uneasy was Jotaro Kujo.

Could it be that the power he had hidden, the power he had never shown, could even threaten him?

This man must be killed as soon as possible. With such a variable, they are now...

"Huh? What's the matter? Are you hurt?"

"What? They found the connection point? And hurt you who are on the [first floor]?"

"How is that possible? There is no light on the [Second Floor], and there is a barrier between it and the [First Floor]. They have no reason to determine your location. No, wait a minute, don't be anxious, don't rush to show up, maybe you just happened to run into them and..."

The somewhat depressed old woman turned her head and looked to her side, as if she was communicating with an invisible person.

She seemed to be persuading someone who was already in extreme rage, and there was a hint of helplessness in her voice.

But before the old woman could say a few words, the unusual changes forced her to stop.

The lights in the square went out.

Amidst the piercing sound, the observation deck behind him suddenly lowered a windshield to block the heavy rain, completely blocking out the light from outside.

This dilapidated square, which was originally brightly lit, fell into darkness at this moment.

Chapter 28: Meteor Finger Stab~?

dark.

Absolute darkness with no light and no visible objects.

A shadow can only exist under light. When the light disappears, the shadow will naturally cease to exist.

Because of this, when the entire square was completely plunged into darkness, the shadow wrapped around the old woman naturally could not be maintained and dissipated in the pure darkness.

"Haha, you react really quickly."

Slowly, the old man stood up from the bench and walked in the darkness.

"The wound on your foot will be very bad if the bleeding is not stopped in time."

"That strong smell of blood is basically telling you where you are now."

"Ah, what a fresh smell! When I was imprisoned in the dungeon by my old master, it was hard to smell this fresh smell of blood. After all, most of the people imprisoned in the dungeon are rotten. Do you know what rotten meat mixed with blood smells like? Once you smell it once, I believe it will be difficult for you to forget that smell."

As she spoke slowly, the old woman stepped forward in the darkness.

She clearly couldn't see anything, yet she acted as if she could see everything, moving easily on the cracked and twisted ground. Every step she took was on solid ground, without ever landing on a crack or uneven surface.

It was as if she could see everything clearly.

"..."

In the darkness, Jotaro just stood silently on one side of the square, about thirty meters away from the old woman.

Once light comes on at this distance, the opponent can immediately attack him. In the previous battle, Jotaro has confirmed that the shadow power of this old woman should have an attack distance of about 50 meters. After exceeding this range, the shadow can still attack, but the attack speed is obviously much slower, and the threat to Jotaro is basically gone.

In other words, this distance is still a very dangerous distance.

However, the square itself was not big. Given the position where the old man was standing, no matter where Jotaro hid, as long as he continued to stay in the square, he would not be able to avoid the other party by more than fifty meters.

Was the venue chosen deliberately to divide them into two groups?

It is indeed a troublesome opponent, so—

He held a screw in his hand and threw it far to the side.

Snapped!

After a clear sound, the old woman suddenly threw a flash bomb, and then a dazzling light instantly enveloped the entire square.

At this moment, Jotaro, who had his hand covering his eyes, clearly saw that the light from the flash bomb did not illuminate the ground at all, and most of the ground in the square turned into a dark color at this moment. The shadow was not because it could not be maintained due to the dark environment, but it just could not be activated.

click-

With a tearing sound, a layer of ground disappeared directly on the ground swallowed by the shadow, and a part of the metal structure was torn apart.

Surround yourself with shadows, and attack indiscriminately with light if anything unusual is detected? Do you want to avoid being approached this way?

"I smell the blood on you."

Although he managed to see the surroundings at that moment, Jotaro, who was blinded by the flash bomb, took a step back and closed his eyes. Then, the old woman turned her head and looked at Jotaro, laughing softly.

A shadow spike instantly attacked Jotaro. Star Platinum suddenly appeared and punched forward, but his fist passed through the shadow and hit nothing.

what? !

Jotaro realized something was wrong in an instant and dodged sideways, but the shadow passed through Star Platinum's fist and materialized when it touched Jotaro's shoulder. With a tearing sound, it pierced through Jotaro's shoulder. Then the shadow trembled violently, lifted Jotaro up in the air, and threw him away.

A light emerged from the old man's hand. It was a very ordinary small searchlight, shining on the dark, shadow-covered ground.
