Tokyo Fall Guys beats up the supernatural

Page 250

When Takeda Koyo found the door locked, she sighed and looked into the room. She immediately noticed someone tied to a chair near the window on the other side of the table. Upon closer inspection, she recognized him as her partner, Tanuki-suke.

Tanuki-suke is a tanuki spirit who once trained with an exorcist. In traditional Japanese culture, tanuki have always been considered highly spiritual creatures, and there are countless strange tales about them, including legends such as the "808 Tanuki".

In Japanese tradition, tanuki (raccoon dogs) have always been portrayed as humorous and witty monsters, fond of playing pranks and scaring people, and skilled in illusion and transformation.

In the past, these would have been nothing more than legends, but since a certain summer night a year ago, some tanuki monsters have actually begun to master magical abilities such as illusions, and Tanuki-suke is one of them.

After becoming a half-demon, he did not choose to get involved in the proxy war, but instead sought out Takeda Koyo, who had once fed him, and the two became partners.

"Tanuki, are you alright?"

Takeda Koyo quickly approached Tanuki-suke, looked at the slightly chubby man with bruises and red marks on his face, and took out a handkerchief to tenderly wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Why did you still come...Are you stupid?" Tanuki grinned, annoyed.

"I can't just abandon you and run away alone. Do you think that's something I would do?"

"Tch, you stupid woman." Tanuki tilted her head. "Now look what's happened, we're going to die together!"

Takeda Koyo untied him and then said, "No way... By the way, who exactly are these half-demons? They just threw me in here without answering anything, it seems like they don't want to form an alliance with us at all!"

Tanuki rubbed his wrist and sighed, "An alliance? How could that be... At most, they just need my illusion abilities, which are techniques that even half-demons can't master."

"As for you... sigh, silly woman, I'll do my best to protect you."

Tanuki stood up. Even after transforming into a human, he seemed to have maintained his original physique. He looked very young with a round face and was slightly chubby. Standing next to Koyo Takeda, he looked more like the latter's student, but he always seemed to have a lot of ideas.

He leaned closer to the door to listen to the sounds outside, then sighed, "There are people everywhere outside, there's no way to escape..."

He then turned to look at the window, frowning, and said, "There's nowhere to climb on this glass facade, no way out at all. Is the only option really to fight our way out? That's completely impossible..."

Takeda Koyo said weakly, "I called for reinforcements... but I don't know when they will arrive."

Tanuki rolled his eyes: "External help? I contacted them before and found out that this is basically all the half-demon left in Urayasu City. Where else can you call for external help?"

"They said they were exorcists... and that they came to resolve the issues in Urayasu City."

Upon hearing this, Tanuki frowned, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Oh? The exorcists are finally planning to get their revenge? That doesn't make sense... How did they find you?"

Takeda Koyo found a chair and sat down, then told Tanuki about what had happened at school.

After hearing Takeda Koyo's words, Tanuki seemed somewhat worried, saying, "This is troublesome... This is troublesome. What if they launch a Russian-style counter-terrorism operation?"

"Russian-style counter-terrorism? What does that mean?" Takeda Koyo, who doesn't often go online, obviously didn't understand.

"It means that regardless of whether the hostages are inside or not, as long as we kill both the hostages and the enemies, the mission is considered complete!" Tanuki said with exasperation.

Takeda Koyo shrank back, clearly frightened: "No, no way..."

"Very likely." Tanuki dispelled her wishful thinking.

Just as Tanuki finished speaking, the sound of a door opening came from outside, and a moment later, a strong old man in a kimono walked into the room.

Upon seeing that person, Tanuki-suke's face was filled with disbelief: "Mori, Mori Jun?! Your body... how is this possible?"

Tanuki seemed to recognize the half-demon, and Takeda Koyo shrank back, cautiously observing everything before her.

The half-demon known as Mori Jun was the leader who had recently gathered the other half-demons together. He was now completely different from when he mobilized at the shrine. He had not only grown taller but had also become extremely strong. Apart from his face, nothing about him was the same as before.

“Hehehe…” Mori Jun laughed wickedly, his face wrinkled like tree bark: “Tanuki, when was the last time we met? It seems like you refused to join me… That was several months ago.”

"I never expected you to stay in the suburbs for so long."

Tanuki took a half step back, squinted, and fine gray-black fur began to grow on his face. He bared his teeth and said, "What are you trying to do by gathering all these half-demons? Your underlings gave me a good 'welcome' before."

Sen Jun looked very happy. He laughed loudly, clapped his hands, and his mustache twitched like a mouse's whiskers.

"Of course, it's for revenge! Revenge against our creator!" He spread his arms wide, opening his embrace: "Tanuki, we've found the culprit who turned us into humans! That Onmyoji..."

Before Tanuki could ask in shock, he continued, "But he! Doesn't intend to take responsibility for us!"

Mori Jun's expression contorted into a rage, his eyes wide with fury and resentment: "He's treating us like guinea pigs! Tanuki! Our lives are nothing but a game to him!"

"You idiot! Can you really tolerate this?!"

Tanuki took a deep breath and interrupted him, saying, "Mori Jun... I have no intention of revenge. I just want to live an ordinary life!"

Mori Jun's expression suddenly froze, then melted into indifference as he questioned, "Really? Tanuki... Even after hearing this truth, you still want to cowardly run away from everything?"

Tanuki remained silent, simply staring at Mori Jun.

Mori Jun's gaze gradually turned cold, and finally he lowered his eyes and slowly raised his hand.

"I regret……"

As soon as he finished speaking, Takeda Koyo, who was near the window, suddenly heard a sound.

She looked out the window and saw a scarlet figure appear in the night sky.

Chapter 88 Breaking Through a Window at High Altitude

Falling from a great height.

Dou Tang did not transform, but fell from the sky in human form, with the wind howling violently in his ears.

Falling like this is like giving up one's life and choosing to commit suicide. The building in front of you is falling rapidly downwards, as if it is not you who is falling, but the whole world that is pressing down on you.

Dou Tang's eyes gradually brightened as he fell, and it seemed as if a green ghost was whispering and calling out to him, responding to his actions.

The scarlet knight continued to fall, his robes fluttering and rustling like the feathers of a falcon.

The wind blew in through the gaps in the hood and the peepholes in the eyes, but Dou Tang's vision was not obstructed in any way, and the strong wind had no effect on him.

Finally, he rolled over and grabbed the rope behind him.

The rope slipped rapidly through his hands, but he gripped it tightly, slowing his descent.

"Sizzsssssssssss..."

The heavy cable rubbed against his hands, making a somewhat teeth-grinding sound, while his descent slowed down more and more.

Two floors... three floors...

Dou Tang suddenly flipped in mid-air, straightened his body, and lowered himself down the rope with one hand, like a soldier rappelling down from the sky.

Finally, he stopped on the 29th floor.

As it happened, he stopped outside a room window and immediately spotted the horrified figure inside... Takeda Koyo.

In the middle of the room was a long round table, and at the other end of the table stood a burly, tall, and aged half-demon, and a slightly chubby man with small eyes, who was none other than Tanuki-suke, whom Takeda Koyo had mentioned.

Just in time.

………………

The air seemed to freeze.

To be precise, it was something that could still seep into the house through the glass, freezing the air and pinning everyone in place, rendering them unable to move.

In the frozen air, Mori Shun raised his hand, twisted his stiff neck, and looked out the window.

Outside the window, there was a scarlet figure.

The scarlet figure resembled a hanged corpse, a thick rope tied around his waist, his left hand gripping the rope tightly, as if this could change his fate of being hanged.

But that was just the initial impression. When the gaze shifted to his huge blue compound eyes, everything changed.

Instead of being suspended by a cable, he was gripping the cable tightly to prevent himself from being lifted into the sky.

He seemed like a ghost suspended in the air, his eerie blue compound eyes like a guiding light leading people to the other side of the Yellow Springs, his fluttering clothes like a general's cloak, and the black mist leaking from the gaps in his clothes like the death fog that permeated the Yellow Springs.

Behind this eerie and terrifying presence lay half a dim and murky night sky, and the other half a bustling and vibrant neon light. He stood between these two, like a scale weighing everything.

He slowly raised his hand.

A large amount of black mist impacted the glass in front of him, simultaneously pushing him upwards.

Dou Tang stared coldly at the glass in front of him, reached out, and the surging fog, accompanied by a gale, lifted him backward, raising him more than two meters away from the glass, high in the air.

Then, he abruptly withdrew his hand, fogging up the glass, while he swung like a pendulum and smashed it against the glass.

The three people inside stared in surprise at the glass, but they couldn't see anything through the black fog.

"Huhuhu..."

Something is approaching in the darkness.

"Bang!!"

In an instant, the reinforced glass was kicked into a white, shattered mess, held together by the reinforcing mechanisms within the glass, barely preventing it from breaking into millions of fragments.

However, the presence outside the window still managed to create a breach. The glass, shattered into extremely small pieces, was torn apart like a sheet of cloth by his foot, and he emerged from the hole.

"Whoosh—Bang!"

Slicing through the stagnant air, carrying with it a vast expanse of deathly mist, the crimson knight swiftly and wildly stormed into the room, landing heavily on the long table. He slid forward a meter in a half-crouching position before slowly coming to a stop, leaving conspicuous scratches on the tabletop.

As he arrived, the mist seeped into the room, beginning to erode everything in sight, spreading along the ground. Although it looked eerily black, it had no smell.

"Hiss—" The knight took a deep breath and stood up.

"call--"

As his breath subsided, he suddenly moved, slamming his foot on the table. The wooden tabletop exploded with a loud crack, shattering into pieces. He then charged forward with lightning speed, reaching out to grab Sen Shun, who was not far away!

"Ho!"

Sen Jun was no pushover either. He wasn't intimidated by Dou Tang's imposing manner, but instead roared fiercely.

Come, its body grows thick, long, grayish-white whip-like hairs, its eyes are scarlet, and its hands transform into sharp claws.

He raised his now hard and thickened arm to take Dou Tang's attack head-on.

Dou Tang's heavy punch arrived in front of him in an instant, like a heavy hammer thrown at high speed.

"Bang!!!"

His muscles twisted from the impact, his bones cracked, and Sen Shun had only one thought in his mind: He couldn't catch it!

If I don't completely transform into a monster, I won't be able to withstand this punch!

The moment the thought crossed his mind, he was suddenly thrown backward as if someone had pressed the fast forward button, crashing into a thin wall that shattered with a crash.

The walls inside these office buildings are very thin, basically serving only as partitions. Therefore, Mori Shun simply broke a large hole in the wall and was knocked into another room.

He bumped into the piles of things in the room, looking quite disheveled. Then, baring his teeth in anger, his front teeth appearing long and thin, he roared, "Intruder! Help! Help!"

"So it was just a mouse. No wonder it was so cautious. Tsk."

Dou Tang scoffed dismissively, strode forward, pressed his hands against the edge of the hole in the wall, and with a sudden jerk, tore an even larger opening in the thin wall, passing through it and arriving in front of Sen Shun.

Mori grinned, his entire head began to deform, his nose and mouth protruded forward and slowly merged, turning into an ugly rat head.

His body also began to change, becoming stronger, with muscles bulging and his figure growing taller.

At the same time, the half-demons pushed open the door and rushed into the room, where they found Dou Tang standing between the two rooms. Several of the half-demons began to roar and their bodies began to deform.

Dou Tang twisted his neck and pressed down with his hand.

The black mist surged out of Dou Tang's body like a floodgate being opened. This mist, filled with the endless resentment of vengeful spirits, churned and rose, spreading across the ground and forming a strange layer of mist as high as his calves.

Even the monsters, who were used to seeing evil spirits, couldn't help but shiver when the fog enveloped their calves. Their animal instincts began to warn them that the fog must not rise to a level that could drown people.

Just the calves soaked in the mist made my movements feel a bit sluggish. What would it feel like to be completely swallowed by the mist...? Wouldn't it be like entering another world?

"Charge! Charge! He's all alone!! Kill him!"

Some people shouted loudly to bolster their courage.

Dou Tang also raised his hand, waved it, and mocked the half-demons in front of him.

Chapter 89 Brutal Battle

Old Wolf and Kotaro climbed to the 29th floor, stood at the top of the stairs, and looked at the gray-white fire door in front of them, ready to go.

Xueqing slowly walked downstairs, tying his long sword to his waist. When he saw Laolang and Guangtaro, he nodded.

"Hey, that guy's already inside?" Old Wolf asked, tilting his head.

Xueqing shook her head: "He'll definitely make a lot of noise, so... we'll just go in when we hear the noise."

He drew his long sword, held it in his right hand, and gently vibrated the hilt with his left hand, causing the sword to emit a melodious hum, as if it were singing.

He flicked his wrist, and the light on the longsword flashed for a moment, clearly indicating that he was ready.

Kotaro's hands jerked violently, and his arms made a "poof" sound as three emerald green serrated bone spikes pierced through the flesh of his arms and shot out from the holes in the leather sheath.

The old wolf, wearing a mask, didn't move much, but it was clear that it was ready for battle.
