Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 220

"I'll talk, I'll talk..." The half-demon grinned and arched back, trying to get away from Mikazuki's sharp nails, then said timidly, "The proxy war started because two half-demons who were once enemies continued to fight after becoming human. One of them killed the other and discovered that he had regained his former power, and his body could also partially transform into a demon, therefore..."

"Some speculate that by killing enough other half-demons, one can gain the ability to switch between human and demon at will."

"So... those monsters that were never good to begin with started attacking other half-demons, and even the half-demons who were not hostile had no choice but to fight back."

Dou Tang frowned, then chuckled and said, "We have guests."

As soon as he finished speaking, several soft sounds came from above everyone's heads. Mikazuki looked up and saw that seven half-demons holding short swords had jumped down from the rooftop, which was dozens of meters high, and landed on several air conditioner outdoor units. Like a fishing net in the air, they blocked all the escape routes for everyone.

One of the men, wearing capri pants and covering his mouth with a black cloth, held a short knife, peered down from the edge of the air conditioner unit, and said, "Hey, stranger, let our companion go."

"Otherwise, you will all die here."

Dou Tang took the longsword handed to him by Mikazuki, spread his hands and said, "We are about the same number, how can you be so sure that you will win if we fight?"

The man narrowed his eyes and suddenly sneered, "Stop bluffing. I can tell at a glance that you are all ordinary half-demons who have not yet unleashed your power. You probably haven't been human for very long, have you? You won't get the better of us."

He toyed with the dagger in his hand, saying absentmindedly, "In just a few seconds, you will all be dead."

"Although I don't know why some of the half-demons who fled Urayasu City have returned, I have to say you've come back too late. The proxy war has reached its final stage, and you're now just easy prey."

"Release him, and I'll let you leave. Leave Puan City and never come back."

Feeling slighted like this, the members of Mengnan Village were somewhat displeased. However, since Dou Tang didn't speak, they didn't want to either. They simply looked at each other, then smiled, appearing completely indifferent.

Dou Tang sighed.

"I'd like to ask, how long has this proxy war been going on?"

Upon hearing this question, the man on the high place straightened up and sneered, "About a year, that's why I said you've come too late. The proxy war is almost over after a year, and now Urayasu City is deciding the strongest half-demon... and the Onmyoji's whereabouts have also been exposed."

"Want to find out about half-demons? At this critical juncture, everyone is trying their best to increase their power. You guys are just tools for others to enhance their power."

Upon hearing this, Dou Tang laughed and said, "So even if we let this guy go, you still won't let us leave, right?"

The man nodded: "Well... but if you let him go, I'll at least make sure you die without any pain."

Hearing this, Dou Tang finally understood.

I had never been to Urayasu City before, nor had I ever heard any rumors about this matter in Urayasu City. It is likely that Urayasu City had already become that Onmyoji's testing ground a year ago.

He was experimenting here with methods to transform monsters into humans, but these half-monsters, in turn, took control of Urayasu City's underworld, creating a relatively closed environment as they struggled against each other.

If that Onmyoji hadn't gone to observe the battle between Toudou and Taira no Masakado, and hadn't encountered Mikazuki and the Mighty Man's Stronghold on his return journey, Toudou probably would still be unaware of this matter.

One year... This timeframe corresponds to the start date of the Crown game.

It seems that this Onmyoji is more cautious and mysterious than any crown holder Dou Tang has encountered before, and of course, more ambitious.

Unlike Taira no Masakado, he didn't loudly proclaim his existence. Instead, he secretly observed, honing his abilities while coldly watching the half-demons kill each other. He watched these demons launch a conflict called the Proxy War, and calculated the future of the Crown Game.

Chapter 26 The Battle of Leaping Over Walls

A chilling killing intent spread through the alley.

Obsessed with hunting their own kind, the half-demons sat or stood high above, looking down at the people in the alley, their eyes filled with murderous intent and madness.

In this city where only by killing their own kind can they continue to live, they have long understood that this proxy war is a matter of life and death. They have long agreed to unite against the common enemy, until they kill all the other half-demons except themselves, and then fight each other to determine the final victor.

These few ordinary half-demons who had just arrived were simply the best nourishment. Although they had killed the snake demon that their side had always regarded as a great enemy, it now seemed that their side was still stronger.

As for the fact that these guys on the ground were vaguely led by an ordinary human... it only made the half-demons laugh.

Even powerful exorcists cannot stop half-demons with their strong bodies. The greatest advantage of half-demons lies not in their use of demonic energy or resentment, but in their enhanced bodies. This kind of physical enhancement is a natural enemy to ordinary exorcists who are good at setting up barriers.

Ordinary exorcists mostly deal with vengeful spirits and evil spirits. Dealing with vengeful spirits and evil spirits often only requires using enough talismans or spells, but the bodies of half-demons are essentially... human.

A half-demon with a powerful physique cannot resist using talismans and spells.

This is precisely why the half-demons looked down on Dou Tang.

Dou Tang, after pondering for a while, sighed, looked up, and said, "So, we have nothing more to say?"

The masked half-demon sneered, "If you kneel down and beg for mercy now, we might spare your life, but your half-demon friends must die."

Upon hearing this, the masked half-demon thought that those people would immediately fight him to the death, or that the boy would beg for mercy in fear, but none of these scenarios occurred. Dou Tang simply sighed again.

After sighing, he looked at Xiao Qin and the others and said, "Do you want to make a move?"

Mikazuki stated bluntly, "We can't make a move. If we kill them..."

One of them will become so dependent on humans for survival.

Dou Tang nodded, looked up, and slowly drew the long sword from his hand.

He drew his longsword and said softly, "There's nothing to talk about, let's settle this with strength, everyone."

The group of half-demons above finally understood. The masked half-demon pointed a finger in confusion: "You, you mean... none of them are going to fight, and you, a human, are going to fight us?"

"Hahahahahaha..."

"Hey, is this guy crazy? Has he lost his mind?"

"Hahahaha... Did it just come out of the deep mountains of Hokkaido? Huh? Doesn't it have any concept of yokai at all?"

The half-demons burst into laughter, completely disregarding Dou Tang.

Dou Tang sighed helplessly.

Then, he crouched down slightly, looking at the laughing half-demons above him, and gradually held his breath and focused.

Moving mountains and swallowing seas

"Bang!!"

The chaotic air currents, mixed with rubble, exploded with a deafening roar. Two deep footprints appeared beneath Dou Tang's feet, and he himself shot out like a missile, leaping into the air.

The masked half-demon, who was still laughing wildly, suddenly froze, staring in surprise at Dou Tang who appeared before him.

This place... is at least ten meters above the ground, right?

How did he appear in front of me? How did he get up here?

Before he could even process what was happening, Dou Tang, who was in mid-air, suddenly delivered a powerful whip kick!

"Pfft—"

Struck in the side by a whip kick, the masked half-demon was sent flying before he could react. He crashed headfirst into a sewage pipe, shattering the plastic pipe instantly, and then fell to the ground covered in blood.

Dou Tang reached out and jumped onto the air conditioner unit where the masked half-demon had just been, the metal frame of the unit rattling loudly.

"Bastard thing!"

The other half-demons were immediately alarmed, but they did not sit idly by and wait for their deaths. Several half-demons, carrying long and short swords or gloves with blades attached, stepped on the walls on both sides and charged towards Dou Tang.

Fighting enemies in the air was a rare experience for Dou Tang, so he was somewhat excited. With a slight flick of his wrist, his longsword made a sound like the buzzing of wings, drawing a semi-circle as it rushed towards the enemy.

Suddenly, countless white lights flashed in the air, and the glint of swords drew strange and irregular lines, weaving a chaotic net.

The crisp sounds of metal clashing echoed almost continuously, reverberating between the walls on both sides, gradually becoming noisy and disruptive.

Dou Tang nimbly tumbled in the air, seemingly strolling leisurely despite being surrounded by several people. Each step he took on the two footholds on either side, though appearing light, provided powerful force to his body, allowing him to keep flying.

Gradually, the besieging half-demons discovered that in the air, where there were hardly any footholds, Dou Tang seemed to have carved out a space that belonged to him. No matter how the people around him attacked, he could use a foothold as the center and constantly use the walls on both sides to resist the attacks of the half-demons. His agile figure was like a monkey leaping in the bamboo forest. Every move he made seemed as if he was a life that lived in the air, destined to flip and dodge in the process of defying gravity.

All the attacks of the half-demons were blocked by a longsword with a strange and unpredictable trajectory. When Dou Tang swung the longsword in his hand, it was as if the blade had turned into a soft tail, often whipping out in the direction Dou Tang was moving, making it impossible to defend against.

"Roar!!"

Suddenly, a roar came from the ground. The masked half-demon who had been knocked down by Dou Tang earlier climbed up the wall. He no longer had a short sword in his hand, but instead had twisted and deformed sharp claws covered with a layer of fine scales.

Each of its claws penetrated deep into the insulation layer of the wall, and its eyes were covered with layers of scales, its pupils transforming into vertical crocodile-like pupils.

Dust and debris rained down from the wall, and he quickly scrambled to a position close to Dou Tang, roared, and leaped up to grab Dou Tang's ankle from below.

Dou Tang, suspended in mid-air, didn't even glance down. He slammed his hand against the wall beside him, flipped himself upside down, and thrust his long sword, which moved like a dragon, towards the masked half-demon.

Dou Tang held his breath, and with a sudden tremor, his longsword transformed from a strange and unpredictable dragon into an unstoppable killing move, stabbing down towards the masked half-demon's head.

The masked half-demon didn't care, he just slightly turned his head, trying to make the longsword miss his forehead.

The longsword grazed the masked half-demon's cheek, slicing through his black mask to reveal a hideous mouth with protruding, jagged teeth, while its claws reached for Dou Tang's arm.

It's too difficult to change tactics while falling, so this strange human will definitely be caught by me!

Just as the masked half-demon was thinking this, he felt a draft on the side of his cheek.

"brake!"

The sound of metal cutting through flesh rang out, and out of animalistic instinct, the masked half-demon tilted its head again.

The longsword, which seemed to have no further moves, suddenly swung back at an angle, slicing off half of the masked half-demon's face!

Before he could recover from his panic, Dou Tang reached out with his other hand to push away the claws and punched him in the head!

After deflecting the attack, it still had the speed and power to strike back?

"Oh!"

The dull thud of flesh colliding was sickening, and the masked half-demon was knocked down once more, crashing to the ground with a thud and screaming in agony.

.

Chapter 27 If you don't have the awareness to be the prey, what right do you have to be the hunter?

The half-demon fell from the sky again, like a tortoise that had been lifted high by an eagle and then thrown down, crashing heavily to the ground with a cracking sound.

He covered his cheek, staring incredulously at Dou Tang in the air. A sharp pain surged through his body, and he finally lost consciousness.

After defeating the half-demon who had transformed into a half-beast, Dou Tang gripped the narrow window frame with one hand and continued to look at the other half-demons.

At this moment, the half-demons finally began to take things seriously. Hair and scales sprouted from their skin, their bodies became hunched or twisted, transforming them into ugly, neither-human-nor-beast creatures. Pairs of eyes filled with anger and resentment shone like sparkling gems.

Xiao Qin, who was looking up at everything below, patted his neck and said, "Uh, shouldn't we go up and help?"

Mikazuki stared intently at Tou Tang and said, "No need."

"He doesn't need our help."

"hiss……"

Dou Tang slightly opened his mouth, but gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, the air hissing as it flowed through his teeth.

Then, he exhaled a heavy breath, his eyes shining like stars, gleaming with an eerie bluish-green light, "Hoo—"

The next moment, the half-demons moved, several phantoms appearing and disappearing in the air, the sound of their movements even a little jarring.

"Thud!!"

A spark ignited in the air, illuminating the intertwined afterimages for a fleeting moment, and revealing the figure of Dou Tang wielding a long sword clashing with a short knife.

Immediately afterwards, a shower of fiery blossoms rained down, and bright flames spread across the sky.

"Tap tap tap..."

The dense clanging of steel seemed to merge into one sound, as if someone had pressed a key on an electronic keyboard, making the sound uninterrupted.

In the air, where there was almost no place to land, the half-demon and Dou Tang transformed into nimble swifts, their movements creating a metallic symphony as they passed each other. With his exceptional eyesight, Mikazuki even saw a joyful, almost manic smile on Dou Tang's face as the sparks illuminated it.

When facing a sufficiently powerful enemy, Dou Tang would always show a smile that he would never normally see, as if he was enjoying something completely different from his usual self during the battle.

Dou Tang rarely laughed out loud; even when interacting with Huai Yin, he would only chuckle gently. When faced with evil spirits that truly enraged him, he would become unusually silent.

The contrast between his silent rage and his exhilarating laughter during battle made Mikazuki uneasy.

Suddenly, she noticed a glittering silver fragment falling toward the ground with a clang.

Mikazuki looked down and stared intently, only to find that it was the tip of a knife.

This means that the half-demons' offensive has begun to crumble.

Just as she was about to look up to continue watching, she felt a dark shadow crashing down towards the ground, so she quickly stepped aside.

With a muffled thud, a corpse with its throat slit by a longsword fell to the ground. Its body was highly deformed, its bones misaligned and twisted, covered with straight gray hair like a rat, its front teeth protruding, and its face frozen in disbelief and terror.

A person's defeat is the beginning of a nightmare.

Dou Tang's eyes widened in anger, and his long sword flashed with bright white light. After being improved by the mysterious person, this sword was far superior to the ordinary swords in the hands of these half-demons. A simple collision could leave a chip on the blade.

Even with strength far exceeding that of humans, they could still feel their tiger's mouth cracking and their fingers going numb from the shock. Those wearing sharp-edged gloves fared even worse; their gloves were already torn to shreds, and their entire arms gradually lost strength with each exchange of blows.

"Doesn't this guy get tired?!"

As soon as the half-demon finished speaking, he felt a continuous white light in front of him, obscuring all his vision, and then he lost consciousness.

The other half-demons, who had been temporarily repelled, stared in horror at the brutal scene before them.

Dou Tang held the sword horizontally with one hand, while grabbing the half-demon by the collar with the other. He raised the sword horizontally and slashed it down toward the half-demon's eyes, leaving a gash that cut directly into the skull. The half-demon didn't even have time to scream before it suddenly trembled and was killed.
