Chapter 206: The Video

This marked the first time Liu Xing had a clear look at Killer Demon's visage. That day on the highway, Killer Demon had suddenly appeared, initiating with a "SAN value attack" that left Liu Xing too preoccupied to pay attention to Killer Demon's appearance. Instead, Killer Demon had engaged in a series of bewildering maneuvers, all while keeping his back turned to Liu Xing. In Liu Xing's memory, Killer Demon was nothing more than a stylish silhouette.

But this time, Liu Xing finally got a frontal view of Killer Demon... or did he?

Dark wisps of energy continuously swirled around Killer Demon's face, preventing Liu Xing from discerning his true form. Killer Demon's body seemed ethereal, as if it could vanish at any moment.

As for Killer Demon's signature, the large blade he held, Liu Xing couldn't see anything particularly special about it.

Overall, Liu Xing thought that if Killer Demon lost one hand, he might pass for a cosplaying Yang Guo.

However, as Liu Xing pondered these thoughts, he suddenly realized a pressing question: why had Killer Demon appeared here?

The answer was straightforward: he must be here to kill Aoki!

With this realization, Liu Xing immediately warned Aoki, "Quick, run! Killer Demon is here."

Aoki swiftly glanced back and then turned to leave, though not without saying to Liu Xing, "See you tomorrow."

Liu Xing watched as Aoki, a mythical creature, disappeared into the darkness at a speed even faster than Western reporters.

At this moment, Liu Xing, with a puzzled expression, stood still. Aoki was undoubtedly a mythical creature, given his incredible speed. However, Liu Xing also realized a serious problem: how could he escape with his petite frame? It seemed he wouldn't stand a chance against Killer Demon's blade.

Just as Liu Xing was preparing to flee, Killer Demon in front of him suddenly transformed into a swirling black mist and rapidly shot towards the direction Aoki had fled, completely ignoring Liu Xing.

Liu Xing felt utterly ignored.

"So, it seems that Killer Demon's primary targets are mythical creatures, especially the Ghouls within this module," Liu Xing mused aloud. "But according to Aoki, they haven't betrayed and killed Sawada Tomohiko to turn him into Killer Demon. So, why would Killer Demon still be pursuing the Ghouls?" Liu Xing stood there, pondering this question.

A chilling gust of wind swept through, causing Liu Xing to shiver. He abandoned his thoughts and hurried back to the guesthouse.

After taking a hot shower, Liu Xing planned to use his phone to check in with Yin En and the others, as well as to inform them of what happened after he had turned off the livestream.

When Liu Xing opened his phone, he noticed that the memory card Aoki had given him had been unpacked, revealing over a dozen AVI-format videos.

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, suspecting that a member of the Dark Willow Gang had possibly mistaken the memory card, as it seemed to contain Island Nation's peculiar movies he was known for.

With this thought in mind, Liu Xing decided to watch the videos.

After watching the first video, Liu Xing finally understood what leverage the Dark Willow Gang held over Tennoji Sohide: he was a pedophile!

No matter which country you were in, an official exposed as a pedophile would see their political career come to a swift end.

Therefore, it wasn't hard for Liu Xing to grasp why Tennoji Sohide dared not resist the Dark Willow Gang. With this evidence in their hands, Dark Willow Gang could make Tennoji Sohide crossdress and livestream without hesitation.

However, the video abruptly cut off.

After inspecting the monstrous creation one last time, Honda Koichi showed no mercy and killed it, as it was a failed specimen.

He called over a few Ghouls to carry the monstrous creation's body away. Then he leaned towards the camera, smiling as he spoke, "Mikageichi, I'm sure you've seen everything. My experiment has been a partial success, enhancing the human body. Unfortunately, along with physical enhancement, it seems to cause some mental issues. So, I hope you won't let Hisanobu Ito end up like this."

"Therefore, Mikageichi, please be patient and give me some more time. I'll definitely refine this formula, helping Hisanobu Ito achieve immortality. After all, I owe Hisanobu Ito's father a huge favor, so, Mikageichi, you need to bring that child over as soon as possible. Her blood contains divinity, far superior to the blood of these mythical creatures filled with madness and fear. It's thousands of times better!"

"Oh, by the way, we're running out of test subjects in the lab, and the experiment is entering its final stage. I need you, Mikageichi, to provide me with a test subject similar to Hisanobu Ito's condition. This way, I can conduct experiments more effectively. My subordinates are not suitable for capturing this type of subject outside, so it's up to you."

"Alright, the video is now over. You, come here and deliver this video to your boss as soon as possible. Let him watch the last video, and after that, take action promptly. According to the prophecy, the girl with the blood of the gods will disappear shortly, so we must act quickly."

As Honda Koichi spoke, he reached for the camera and handed it to a nearby person dressed in black, the unfortunate one who was chased by other gang members as soon as he stepped out.

The video ended, and Liu Xing tossed his phone carelessly onto the bed before deep in thought.

Based on Honda Koichi's final words, it could be inferred that Honda Koichi knew Hisanobu Ito, Mikageichi's adoptive father. Hisanobu Ito's father had helped Honda Koichi in the past, creating a significant debt of gratitude. Thus, Liu Xing suspected that the item Aoki had mentioned, which could resist Fujiwara Gen'in, the Ghoul elder's control, was likely a gift from Hisanobu Ito's father to Honda Koichi.

Furthermore, the mastermind behind the Dark Willow Gang, who had calculated Mian Gu Lu's arrival in this era, was likely Honda Koichi. However, Honda Koichi seemed unaware of Mian Gu Lu's true identity and Eldritch God Taketori, learning about Mian Gu Lu from some legend. Mian Gu Lu's appearance in this era and her possession of divine blood appeared to be advantageous for Honda Koichi's experiments.

Honda Koichi's ultimate goal in the experiments seemed to be to use mythical creature blood to transform Hisanobu Ito, helping him achieve immortality. From this, it could be deduced that Hisanobu Ito had left the Shadow Clan with Mikageichi and come to Ziwu City for this very reason. If things went as expected, Hisanobu Ito's time might be running out.

Liu Xing also suspected that Mikageichi had already undergone Honda Koichi's experiments, granting him the ability to take on dozens of opponents simultaneously.

However, what concerned Liu Xing the most was that Honda Koichi now requested Mikageichi to find a new "test subject." This indicated that the Dark Willow Gang might soon take action. Liu Xing believed it was time for Ian to meet with his father-in-law and utilize the Sawada Family's influence to locate Honda Koichi's laboratory.

After all, hidden enemies were the most challenging to deal with.

Suddenly, a ringing sound interrupted Liu Xing's thoughts. It was Ian.

Liu Xing slapped his forehead, realizing he hadn't informed Ian and the others of his safety yet.

He quickly answered the phone, and Ian on the other end immediately asked, "Liu Xing, are you okay over there?"

Liu Xing chuckled awkwardly and replied, "Well, I just encountered Killer Demon here, but he's gone after Aoki, so I'm fine."

Ian let out a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "That's good to hear. We were worried something happened to you. By the way, did the memory card contain any useful information?"

Liu Xing spoke up, "Of course, it contains very important information. I'm going to send you the unpacked videos right now."

While talking, Liu Xing opened an app, preparing to transfer the files.

However, at that moment, his phone displayed a zero battery, and it shut down automatically. Considering his phone's battery had already been low, especially after the recent livestream, this wasn't entirely unexpected.
