Chapter 57 Theater
Chapter 57 Theater
Since the first morning that "Xia Ping Zhou" was created, this character has been stranded in the hotel for two days and two nights.
During this time, Xia Pingzhou remained flat on his bed in the hotel. Sometimes Ji Minghuan would force him to get up to use the restroom, stretch his muscles, or call the hotel front desk to renew his room, but his movements were limited to the room itself.
It’s not that Ji Minghuan is partial to the number one role, nor does he have any opinions about the number two role.
If he had the chance, he'd definitely want to play around with this new persona. But as a member, Xia Pingzhou had the White Crow Brigade's logo tattooed on the back of his hand, and two days ago, Ke Qirui and Su Zimai had seen what his face looked like. The Exorcist Association was definitely looking for him right now.
Under these circumstances, if you wander around the streets in broad daylight, you will most likely be caught by the Japan Exorcist Association.
That would be troublesome: either he would be forced to reform on the spot, or he would arouse the suspicion of the White Crow Brigade.
The better outcome is that the character's life is saved, but the potential for exploring the main task is wasted. The worse outcome is that the second character dies on the spot - neither of which is what Ji Minghuan wants to see.
Not to mention that the second character, the "chess player", is more suitable for positional warfare and has very average mobility. In short, he is not good at running.
He is neither as agile as the first character, Black Pupa, nor does he have a life-saving ability like "invisibility". If he encounters a battle, the second character will most likely be in a very passive position.
Therefore, every move must be planned carefully to avoid conflict with anyone before your strength is increased.
One word: "Go!"
The good news is that in Xia Pingzhou's character background, before coming to Japan, he not only prepared a human skin mask for himself, but also forged a fake ID card. So when he checked into the hotel, he also wore a human skin mask and used a fake ID.
In this way, even if Ke Qirui knew what he looked like, he would not have to worry about being found by the Exorcist Association and brought to the hotel.
Of course, if the brigade members were around, there would be no need to worry so much.
With a group of villain bosses protecting him, Ji Minghuan actually hopes that those small fry will come to him, and then he will take advantage of the time when the bosses are killing people to find a few kills to advance the progress of the "Wild Hunt Winter" training system.
"Ah... this is the pleasure of hugging thighs."
While thinking about this, Ji Minghuan took out his cell phone from beside his pillow and glanced at the text message.
Ayase Origami: Tomorrow, the 4th and 9th will arrive in Tokyo. I'll take you to meet them.
[Xia Pingzhou: Okay, see you then.]
After briefly replying to the message, Ji Minghuan took out a set of clothes from his suitcase. He washed his body in the bathroom, then changed into a white hooded sweatshirt and put on a human face mask.
Then he took out the room card from the card slot and put it in his pocket, then walked towards Roppongi Bar Street.
If it weren't for the fact that wearing a human skin mask in front of the brigade members would have no meaning and would have made him look guilty, otherwise Ji Minghuan would have definitely put it on before meeting them.
In this way, Ke Qirui and his sister would not see his true face that day.
He glanced at his right hand. The White Crow Brigade's signature crow tattoo was emblazoned on the back of his hand: a black crow, the number "12" in red, and a white cross running through it. Ji Minghuan hid his right hand in his pocket, to avoid being seen by passersby, thinking he'd find a bandage to wrap it around his back.
Walking through Tokyo at night, the izakayas are brightly lit, and the smell of grilled salmon, drinks and Japanese yakitori wafts from inside.
The tip of his nose twitched slightly, but his heart remained unmoved. In his eyes, there was only the huge red exclamation mark under the night sky.
Not long after, Ji Minghuan followed the direction of the exclamation mark and arrived at the location of the "Card Incident". Looking up, he saw a skyscraper standing under the huge "exclamation mark".
Judging from the huge spider sculpture on the top of the building, this is the Mori Building in Roppongi Hills.
Created by French artist Louise Bourgeois, this spider sculpture is made of woven black metal mesh and symbolizes maternal love and protection. It is one of Roppongi Hills' most recognizable symbols.
Ji Minghuan observed the surrounding environment and came to the front of the "West Walk" shopping mall next to Mori Building.
He stopped at the entrance, put on the hood of his sweatshirt, and released the Sky Drive from his body. A black and white Möbius strip appeared beside him. He stretched out his hand slowly and picked up the "Queen Stone Statue" chess piece on the strip.
The chess piece shattered and turned into a black and white halo that flowed to his side, and then formed a luxurious and slender black iron giant under the night sky.
As far as I can remember, among the four basic chess pieces, two have special abilities. One is the "King Stone Statue", and the other is the "Queen Stone Statue", which is the strongest among the pieces.
The Queen's statue's ability is to temporarily transform itself into "nothingness." While in this state, it becomes transparent, able to penetrate anything. This technique can be used for both offense and defense, making it a truly versatile weapon.
Furthermore, the Queen's statue's transformation into nothingness also affected everything it touched, including human bodies. The Queen's statue then leaned over, picked up Ji Minghuan's body, and in a flash, passed through the closed glass door in its "nothingness" state and entered the interior of the West Walk shopping mall.
Ji Minghuan fell from the arms of the queen's stone statue, lowered his eyes and waited for his body to materialize again, then turned into the Mori Building from the mall's corridor.
The entire building was empty. He put his hands in his sweatshirt pockets, deliberately avoiding the surveillance cameras, and wandered aimlessly from the basement floor to the fourth floor, and finally turned into the interior of Roppongi Hills, which was connected to the Mori Building.
Then it slowly stopped in front of the entrance of a theater.
At this moment, a black and white prompt box popped up in front of his eyes.
[The "Tokyo City" card event No. 5 has been triggered: "Spider Dancer at Roppongi EX Theater."]
"This is it."
Ji Minghuan raised his eyebrows curiously and looked carefully at the theater in front of him.
A two-meter-tall, three-dimensional inscription reads "EX THEATER" on the entrance wall. Neon tubes emit a cool, icy blue glow in the darkness, outlining the edges of the lettering. A metal sign on the side wall reads "Roppongi EX Theater" in both Japanese and English.
He let the Queen's statue enter the ticket hall first, cut all the surveillance cameras in half, and then deal with the surveillance cameras in the entrance passage.
By the time Ji Minghuan entered the venue, even the surveillance cameras had been shut down by the Queen's stone statue. The regal statue, holding two daggers, slowly approached him and returned to his side, ready to take action.
At first glance, the venue is not small, probably half the size of a "Japanese J-League football stadium".
The lights on the ceiling flickered, and the surroundings dimmed and brightened. When the lights were bright, I could see that there was a terraced auditorium in front of me. There were high chairs in the back seats and a standing area, which could accommodate about 800 to 1000 spectators.
A schedule is displayed on the wall with the "Roppongi Hills streetscape" as the background.
In addition, there is a series of performance posters. Apart from the LiveHouse trailer, most of the posters promote musicals and dramas, including "A Hundred Demons Night Parade" and "Madame Butterfly", with the night view of Roppongi Hills as the background.
According to the schedule, the venue will generally be cleared and closed at 11:30, unless it is a New Year's Eve performance or an art festival, the performance time may be extended to 00:30 the next day.
So at this moment, there is no one in the museum.
The next moment, the curtains of the stage suddenly opened to both sides, and the spotlights in the dome turned on with a "bang", shining on the huge shadow in the center of the stage.
Ji Minghuan tucked his hands into his sweatshirt pockets and looked up. He saw a spider-like demon with a human face hanging upside down from a spider's silk thread below the dome. She danced ecstatically in mid-air, chanting opera in a deep, hoarse voice. The joints of her eight limbs twisted in strange arcs, resembling both an actor and a madman.
Sometimes they dance and laugh out loud, sometimes they become hysterical and scream.
[The "Card Event" has been triggered: Clear the "Spider Demon" in the theater within five minutes.]
"Wait a minute... am I starting this dungeon too early?" Ji Minghuan rested his hand on his chin as a thought suddenly occurred to him. "Wait until my character number one gets off the plane, and then I'll drag him over to join the dungeon with unit number two. Is there a chance I can exploit a bug and get two event cards at once?"
There was no time for him to regret, the spider silk on the stage moved slightly.
The next moment, the spider demon's body was dragged upwards by the spider silk and suddenly disappeared under the spotlight, but its shadow on the wall was still twisting strangely, as if it was still dancing.
The lights went out completely, and a gust of cold wind blew through the entire Roppongi EX Theater.
Even Ji Minghuan couldn't help but shiver in the pitch-black darkness.
At the same time, in another corner of the venue.
A corner of space suddenly tore open, like a movie screen suddenly "embedded" in the darkness.
Behind the curtain, a tall and thin woman slowly walked out, and then the movie screen disappeared from behind her.
The woman, a pipe in her mouth, leaned against the wall silently, one hand on her shoulder, and looked quietly at the boy in the hoodie in the center of the venue and the giant statues surrounding him.
