Chapter 366: Captured Uesugi Eri (Part )
The "ξ" floor, where Uesugi Erie is located.
After the attempted kidnapping of Eri six months ago, the Snake Family redeployed the defense measures for this floor. The fireproof wall of the passage door was upgraded, and high-voltage power grids, high-concentration anesthetic gas, and automatic machine gun turrets were installed. Three fully armed elite cadres took turns on duty...
Although it seemed that their firepower was strong enough to repel any invaders, the Sheqi Eight Families knew very well that if they encountered an invasion by a mixed-blood team with high-risk Word Spirits like last time, these defensive measures would probably not be of much use.
Therefore, the current protection work of Uesugi Eri at the "ξ" level falls on Hilbert Jean-Anger and Uesugi Yue.
One is the strongest and legendary hybrid of the Secret Party; the other is the former Shadow Emperor, a super hybrid who is a descendant of the White King.
Although both of them are over a hundred years old, with Lu Mingfei and most of his team, as well as Yuan Zhisheng, all heading to the Japanese Trench, apart from Chu Zihang, there is currently no hybrid in Genji Heavy Industries who can fight better than these two old men.
Before a higher level will intervened in the world, they were undoubtedly the strongest individual force in the world of hybrids.
Uesugi Yue, who originally only wanted to retire and go to Lyon, France, had no objection to the protection work. It just happened to allow him to spend more time with his lovely daughter who was genetically related to him. Especially at the moment when he saw Eri with his own eyes, Uesugi Yue seemed to feel that the blood of this world was reconnected with him, and his heart, which had been dull for decades, could once again feel the joys and sorrows of the world.
Uesugi Yue asked Ange how he could make it up to his children. Ange said expressionlessly, "I don't have any descendants myself, so how would I know?"... But Ange still shared the case of the vice-president and Professor Manstein with him.
So Uesugi Yue ran to Akihabara and bought all kinds of toy models, game consoles, remote-controlled off-road vehicles, beautiful small bicycles, brand new men's clothes... He filled several large boxes with the money he had saved from selling ramen on a cart over the years.
He took these things to apologize to the two brothers, Gen Chisheng and Gen Chinu, and said that he shouldn't have said such nonsense to them before - the former expressed surprise, while the latter looked calm... and indifferent.
Anyway, the two brothers were very busy these days and had no time to talk to Uesugi Yue about being a loving family. Uesugi Yue also knew this, so he went to Akihabara again and started preparing gifts for Eri, such as giant dolls, Barbie dolls, beautiful dresses...
He was deeply saddened by the impact and burden his beautiful daughter had on her body due to the dangerous bloodline brought about by the damn "Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto", and decided to risk his own life to help Eri eliminate this danger that would affect the rest of her life.
As for how to solve it... I have no idea yet.
Uesugi Eri, whose intelligence was inconsistent with her age, did not show any emotion about the sudden appearance of a "biological father". When they first met, her eyes stayed on the giant teddy bear longer than Uesugi Yue, who was holding the teddy bear, wearing a neat suit and looking as serious and nervous as if he was attending his first parent-teacher meeting.
However, Uesugi Yue was still very excited, thinking that as long as they slowly cultivated their feelings, Eri would recognize him as her father in time...
As a result, the next day, Eri seemed like a different person. She looked indifferent to him and only glanced at the toys and snacks he brought with her once or twice and showed no interest at all. Except for meal time, Eri spent the rest of the time sitting in the room silently meditating with her eyes closed, ignoring everything around her.
Uesugi Yue was devastated. He thought about it over and over again but still couldn't figure out what he had done wrong. He even thought about running to ask Gen Chisei if he had said anything bad about him in front of Eri... but in the end he gave up.
"I'd better communicate with my daughter after this dangerous period... and take her out shopping," he thought to himself.
……
On the Eight Immortals Table were placed four alchemical weapons of different shapes, four of which were formerly the Seven Deadly Sins and are now the Seven Virtues:
Tolerance, diligence, temperance, and chastity.
As his palm swept across these dangerous and deadly weapons, the "living spirit" within it resonated with recognition of Ange's bloodline, and expressed an urgent desire to fight.
Ange felt a little numb: in the past two years, the academy was still competing with Han Gao and his gang for an alchemical blowtorch that was suspected to be made by the second generation, and it even almost caused a bloody conflict. In the end, he had to come forward to negotiate with Han Gao personally; and now, the "Seven Deadly Sins", a mythical alchemical weapon that was only mentioned in a few words even in the legendary records, was now given to him in four pieces at once, just like buying goods in a wholesale market.
It is said that these four alchemical weapons survived because their "size" did not suit the warriors' "combat style".
In addition, there are two "Norton Type I" mortal version grenade launchers and four emergency medical potions - this is the "material support" that the "Sword of Revelation" gives to Principal Angers, who is responsible for protection.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Angé glanced at Uesugi Yue who was sitting across the table with a worried look on his face, and then glanced at Uesugi Eri who was sitting in the middle of the room meditating.
As expected, the enemy took advantage of the fact that Lu Mingfei and nearly half of the Japanese branch rushed to the Japanese Trench and launched an attack here.
Originally, Chu Zihang was stationed here. Angers thought that even if the situation got worse, he would be able to handle it. Maybe he could drink some tea and chat with Lu Mingfei and then call it a day after hearing some good news...
It seems that it is not so easy now.
When the news of "Kanto rebellion requesting support" came, Chu Zihang got up and set out to provide support without thinking, and did not care whether this was a conspiracy of the enemy to divert the attention of the enemy and attack the east while making a feint to the west; this made Angé somewhat suspicious that the cool title of "Champion of the Warband" was actually "Reckless Man of the Warband".
He rubbed his palms gently and unfolded a small note in his palms - that was what Chu Zihang had quietly slipped to him when he left.
“It’s not time to go all out yet”
These eight small words were written on the note.
Ange frowned slightly.
If these eight words do not contain any riddles or secret codes that require you to rack your brain to decipher, then the literal meaning is that in the upcoming battle, you should not rush to fight?
So Chu Zihang was deliberately lured away... Was it a plan arranged by Lu Mingfei?
The noise coming from my ears broke the tranquility of the place. Sitting here, I could hear various gunshots, screams, and shrill sounds like a baby crying through the steel walls.
"Those bastards are finally here!"
Uesugi Yue slammed the table, and the expression on his face changed from sadness to anger.
He wore a long trench coat as dark as night, and perhaps wanted to show his righteous fatherly side in front of his daughter, so he put on a white shirt instead of exposing his chest with a dragon tattoo. But even so, the majesty that once belonged to the emperor was still reflected in him, and he was completely different from the old man who sold ramen with a head cloth not long ago.
"Don't be afraid, Eri. Dad is here. He can chop anything away."
But soon Uesugi Yue briefly put away his anger, walked up to Eri who was still meditating with her eyes closed, hugged her gently, and whispered.
Angé raised his eyebrows slightly. Chu Zihang told him not to fight to the death, but Uesugi Yue would definitely risk his life for his daughter.
He roughly guessed Lu Mingfei's plan, but in his opinion, this plan was quite unstable... and extremely dangerous, especially when Lu Mingfei himself was still far away under the sea of Japan.
"Let's go, Ange. If anything unexpected happens, please protect my daughter first."
Uesugi Yue's words interrupted Angé's thoughts. When he looked up, he saw the old man in front of him with a sincere look on his face.
"I'll try my best." Anger nodded and turned his head to glance at Eri - she was still sitting there meditating.
Did Lu Mingfei and the others... keep any tricks up their sleeve for her?
……
The door of Eri's room was closed from the outside by Uesugi Yue - it was a round metal airtight door, usually such doors only appear in bank vaults.
This is also the reason why the Snake Eight Families did not let Eri move to other places, because this floor was originally cast like a steel barrel - but rather than saying it is a protection, it is better to say that this is a cage to imprison Eri. Before no one dared to attack the Snake Eight Families, most of the previous measures here were to prevent Eri from leaving without permission.
But no matter whether it was protection or imprisonment, the defense line set up by the Eight Clans of Sheqi was breached again tonight.
Low-voltage trap, ineffective; high-voltage power grid, ineffective; anesthetic gas trap, ineffective; automatic machine gun defense turret, ineffective thirty-two seconds after activation... Soon, the attackers broke through to the metal-reinforced passage in front of Eri's room.
As Ange and Uesugi Yue watched, a large hole was blown out of the more than 20-centimeter-thick airtight safety door at the end of the passage - there was no smoke, no loud noise, and the edge of the hole looked broken as if it had been melted by extremely high temperatures or corroded by extremely corrosive substances. A series of burly black shadows filed out from the other end, carrying a strong smell of blood.
Last time, it was a squad of mixed-blood mercenaries with heavy firepower and high-risk words, but this time it was a group of outright monsters.
The lower body drags a thick python-like tail, the upper body's iron-like muscles rise and fall ferociously under the sharp scales, and the four giant arms that are thicker than ordinary people have different shapes: sharp blades, claws, giant tortoises...
For a moment, these hideous monsters lurked at the other end of the passage, their eyes shining with golden light locked onto the only two humans.
"Hey, hey, hey... Even a model like Deadpool is too scary!"
Even the former Shadow King, Uesugi Yue, couldn't help but breathe quickly and heavily after witnessing something that no human being could handle alone in any way.
"...Now we can only hope that the number won't be too many." Angé whispered.
"Puff, puff"
But the first ones to move were not these terrifying Deadpools. Instead, a bunch of round things bounced and rolled out of the dark hole. The only things that could be seen clearly were their belly sacs flashing with purple light.
The second blood burst, the extreme dragon chanting - in fact, the remaining half of the dragon chanting time has entered the "time zero" field for settlement. Angers' word spirit field instantly expanded to cover the entire passage and exempted Uesugi Yue beside him.
Everything within his field of vision was stained with a nearly stagnant gray. Although he had no idea what those round, bug-like things were, his subconscious told Angers that they were definitely not good things.
So he took the lead and picked up the rough firearm, the grenade launcher. Although the recoil was more terrifying than any firearm he had used before... it did not prevent it from being useful!
The rocket-propelled projectile with a scarlet warhead was flying in the gray area, dragging a bright flame tail, accurately hitting all the bouncing rolling worms. The explosion of the fire element even broke through the confinement of the time zero field, erupting wantonly and turning the target into pure ashes.
"The Philosopher's Stone..."
While feeling extremely refreshed, the corners of Angé's mouth twitched, and his cognition was once again refreshed by the "wealth" of Lu Mingfei's army; the bullets of these terrifying calibers shot from the gun barrels were actually made of the Philosopher's Stone... The precious alchemical items that were treasures of the academy and should be stored in the warehouse were just consumables here!
"いくぞ(IKU ZO)!"
Uesugi let out an angry roar, and he leaped forward with a big step, his windbreaker fluttering like a battle flag in the wind.
There was no need for him to bleed violently, as his bloodline was already incredibly powerful. In his mottled, veined palms, diligence and restraint gave rise to shining golden lines, and the alchemical field unfolded and transformed into a new form...
But no matter what form it is, as long as it is in the hands of this emperor, it can only be in the form of killing!
Two days and one stream. Two days in the sun, Uesugi Yue launched a chariot-like charge towards the Deadpools who were imprisoned in Time Zero. His muscles became red due to congestion, and he diligently and restrainedly rotated and slashed wildly like a windmill. In an instant, the burly upper body of the Deadpool at the front of the passage was cut into more than a dozen pieces, and blood was gushing out. The light of the alchemical weapon tore through the Deadpool's scales and bones, leaving clear marks of the slash.
But time zero is not an absolute limit. When Uesugi Yue killed the third Deadpool, the remaining Deadpools seemed to have developed a resistance and gradually regained their ability to move in the field.
"Anger! What's going on!"
"They won't be completely restricted by me!"
Ange had anticipated this - in the past, people often boasted about his Time Zero, saying that even the Dragon King would be influenced by him and would obediently have his head chopped off in the stagnant realm... until he was disemboweled by others in his own time realm.
Pure-blooded dragons are much more resistant to the words released by hybrids than imagined, and the suppression caused is not so absolute; although the group of Deadpools in front of him are not pure-blooded dragons, Angé can see the gains from the power of "devil" in them.
As for the mysterious power of the "devil", he had a deep understanding of it - after all, he had just climbed out of the coffin-like intensive care unit not long ago.
Uesugi Yue did not ask any further questions. Facing the deadpools who had escaped from the constraints of the domain, he swung his sword with both hands to draw a circle and chanted the ancient testimony.
The blade traced a perfect circle, the arc glowing red and looking more like the sun in a total solar eclipse, with the moon temporarily blocking the sunlight but the bright corona still emanating from around the moon's shadow.
Without Angers's exemption, this black sun broke through the time limit of zero. It passed through Uesugi Yue's body and stood behind him. At this moment, the ancient testimony was finished. The dark red flames rose and fell on the edge of the black sun. Uesugi Yue was like a Buddha statue standing in the flowing clouds and flames, extremely calm and majestic.
Word Spirit. Black Sun, the extremely high-risk word spirit with serial number 110.
"This old guy is trying his best." Angé subconsciously held his breath, witnessing the moment when the human body approached the dragon king.
The black sun slowly rotated, and the powerful suction force like a black hole created a strong hurricane in the passage. The first to be affected were the group of terrifying and hideous Deadpools. After being bound by Time Zero, they fell into the quagmire of the dark sun again, and their bodies were sucked uncontrollably towards Uesugi Yue.
Even just a short moment was enough. Uesugi Yuexin walked forward, his upper body clothes had turned to ashes, revealing a giant dragon with bared fangs and claws; the invisible high-temperature field of the Black Sun ignited the Deadpools, but before they were burned out, the Emperor carrying the Black Sun had already killed them one by one with a knife.
The weakness of this Word Spirit is behind it, but in this passage that is less than seven meters wide, the space in front of Uesugi Yue belongs to Black Sun's deadly territory, and no Deadpool can survive to attack his weakness.
Only after he killed all the Deadpools and their body fragments were absorbed by the Black Sun and burned to ashes, was the word spirit field slowly lifted.
It was right to strike first. After all, they hadn't made any modifications and weren't wearing any armor. It would be best if they could kill this thing that looked like it was not something that ordinary people could deal with first. However, the two old men really couldn't handle a protracted battle of back and forth.
"Ange, you're getting old, has your level of words declined?" Uesugi Yue said, panting, with his back against the wall, supporting his body with the blade.
"The enemy is more special than you think." Ange released Time Zero and gasped for breath. "Besides, he had a heart surgery some time ago and hasn't recovered yet."
Uesugi Yue smiled silently and wanted to say something, but the half-blood's keen hearing allowed him to hear a faint, strange rustling sound - coming from Eri's room.
Immediately afterwards, his expression became extremely horrified and panicked, and he rushed back to Eri's room regardless of the burdened state his body was in after releasing the Black Sun.
Ange followed closely behind, and he also realized the low-level mistake he had made - since the opponent had a strange and powerful way of breaking through, there was no need to insist on attacking from the passage they were guarding, and they could just break through the wall from the other end of the room!
After pushing open the airtight door together, Uesugi Yue saw a terrifying scene in the room:
The man in a black suit and a white smiling noble mask on his face was gently knocking on a pair of black wooden clappers, while the girl with the highest bloodline and the strongest power stood there blankly, her body trembling violently but unable to move. When she seemed to be trying her best to turn her head to look at Uesugi Koshi, tears as red as blood flowed from her eyes that were shining with golden light.
Another masked man stood beside Eri, holding a syringe and piercing her fair neck. An unknown purple liquid was being pushed into her body.
There was a big hole in the wall at the other end of the room. A hole big enough for people to pass through was melted out of the metal wall and the outer wall that was several dozen centimeters thick. It was probably the work of those rolling creatures with unknown powers hidden under their purple belly bags.
There was a gusty wind and rain outside, and a helicopter was hovering outside waiting.
"No no no no...what are you going to do to my daughter you bastard!?"
Uesugi Yue let out a furious roar and rushed towards the man, wishing to tear him into pieces - if Eri hadn't been here, he would have released the Black Sun without hesitation to destroy everything in the room;
But another masked man stood in front of Eri, and released an invisible field, which directly knocked him and Ange away and knocked them heavily against the wall.
The Spirit of Words. The Dust-free Land... and it seemed to be mixed with other powers!
The familiar feeling came over him again, and when Angé realized it it was already too late. The power quietly penetrated into their bodies which had become weakened by the high-consumption battle.
The nobleman who was rubbing the wooden clasp gently waved his other hand. Before Ange and the others landed on the ground, blasphemous runes lit up on the wall, locking them tightly to the wall like a swamp and sealing their mouths at the same time.
Uesugi Yue struggled with all his might, but even as a super hybrid, he couldn't easily escape from this strange trap.
"I have heard of your names for a long time, but I am sorry that I do not have much time to chat with you," the noble bowed politely, "because I still have to take my good child to fulfill her mission... before that crazy thing comes back."
"'Forbidden Spirit Essence' has taken effect. The sensory link between the target and... has been temporarily interrupted." The man who injected Eri with an unknown purple potion reported in a low voice.
The golden light in Eri's eyes dimmed, becoming gray and lifeless, and her body was about to collapse to the ground.
Gong Qing stretched out his hand to hold the girl's waist, and at the same time lowered his head and put his nose close to her, greedily sniffing the youthful beauty of the girl's body.
Uesugi Yue, who was blocked on the wall, had bloodshot eyes. The blazing golden light in his eyes wished it could turn into a sharp sword to cut this damn man into pieces.
"It's time to leave." Gongqing said, trying to pick up the girl, but failed.
"…It's a bit heavy. You guys come."
