Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 244 Wuxia Novels Enter Reality?

As Xia Chuan said, Vodka was not confident that they could shoot down all three remaining helicopters with a single missile. If they used this deterrent as well, they would indeed completely lose their air superiority.

There are only two cruise missiles. Other missiles are available, but they need to be reloaded. It's true that Vodka can land to reload missiles, but it's a pipe dream to take off again after landing. The other side won't give them the chance!
"Vodka, do as Tequila says!"

"I know, brother!"

Vodka maneuvered the plane backward a short distance before climbing upwards, hovering two hundred meters above the castle like a frigate.

In Sky Battlefield, Vodka still holds an advantage; at least for now, they have control of the situation, and the enemy doesn't dare to approach easily.

As long as the cruise missiles have not been launched, the zoo will not dare to approach the airspace above the castle.

Now it's a competition of who has the bigger fuel tank and who can hold their breath the longest.

The ground battlefield seemed rather bizarre.

Just now, when the battle in the sky started, Princess Thorn actually broke through the defenses, shattered the windows, and slipped in through one of them.

Gunpowder failed to stop the enemy; in fact, the explosion of the gunpowder widened the breach, allowing the spider to crawl in.

The spider was clearly clever; upon learning that the Thorn Princess had broken through, it immediately left its own battlefield and entered the castle through the opening created by the Thorn Princess.

However, what awaited them inside was an even more terrifying barrage of fire!

The castle was very empty; all the equipment had been removed, and only the combat personnel remained on the first floor, staring menacingly at the two people in front of them.

Incandescent lights illuminate the space, where loaded pistols or rifles surround the two "lambs".

"Thorn Princess, as expected of you! You actually managed to create a breakthrough even in this situation!"

The spider was dressed in a gray robe, its scarf billowing in the strong winds rushing in from outside the window.

His hands were outstretched, with tiny steel needles held between his fingers.

The steel needles look delicate, and using them in battle might seem like a joke, but the outer members of the brewery are extremely vigilant, with some even bringing out riot shields or similar items as protective gear.

Although the enemy did not break through the defensive line, the steel needle projectiles caused great damage to those who fired the shots. Several members were pierced through the eyes by the thin needles and fell to the ground dead.

Princess Thorn held the golden cone upside down, ignoring her so-called companion.

In her eyes, the spider was no less evil than anyone else present, and perhaps even more so.

If given the chance, she planned to take care of the other party as well, so she didn't give them any friendly treatment!
Spider obviously hadn't considered this and still thought the rumors about the Thorn Princess were false.

Rumor has it that the Thorn Princess only targets the most heinous villains, but today, lo and behold, she actually accepted a mission from the zoo. This is undoubtedly the Thorn Princess slapping herself in the face.

He said that there are no righteous killers in the world, it's just a rumor.

"Are you two also from the zoo?"

Xia Chuan walked out of the monitoring room and looked down at the first floor from the second-floor corridor.

The entire castle is a huge multi-story structure, with the first and second floors forming a single building. From the second floor, you can clearly see the situation on the first floor.

Dozens of armed men in black stood in various corners, holding pistols or rifles, while the Thorn Princess and the Spider were surrounded in the middle.

"Who is this gentleman?" Spider asked, then scanned the room and, without waiting for Xia Chuan's answer, went straight to the point: "Do you think these few dozen oddballs can keep us here?"

It wasn't that he looked down on these people, but rather that the gap was too vast, and sometimes it was difficult to make up for such a difference in strength with sheer numbers.

"Whether we can stay or not, we'll find out soon enough, won't we?"

Xia Chuan didn't really think much of Spider, the illusionist.

The illusionist's weakness is quite obvious.

He has three characteristics: hypnosis, thread-spitting drones, and fine needles.

Hypnosis is too easy for Xia Chuan. He already knows some hypnosis techniques, and with his strong willpower, this trick is unlikely to work on him.

The drones that shoot wires have nowhere to hide inside the castle.

After all, there is no such thing as stealth technology in this era. The reason why the spider can hide the drone in Magic Kaito is mainly because of the sky.

All he had left to do was use needles!

Even with two-thirds of his strength reduced, the spider was still chattering away in front of him, which was very annoying.

"Mr. Spider, I've heard you're famous for your illusions. I'd like to see your magic today. Why don't you perform for us all?"

After he finished speaking, all the peripheral members burst into laughter, looking at the spider with mockery.

Spider sneered, and the three red eyes on his mask burst forth with a dazzling red light, illuminating the interior of the castle.

Everyone covered their eyes or closed them to avoid looking, as Xia Chuan had just explained: the spider's illusion required the eyes as a medium.

However, this time it's clearly a little different.

The spider had obviously noticed their movements. After the red light faded, it flung out small balls that flew in all directions.

This all happened in an instant. The outer members didn't have time to react. When they looked at the spider again after blocking the red light, they found that the person that Agave had called Spider was gone.

The entire castle was filled with a thick white mist, like a forest in the early morning, making it difficult to see very far.

A gust of wind blew by, and everyone stared blankly ahead as a giant spider, a full five meters long, appeared before their eyes.

"What, what's going on?"

"What a huge spider!"

"Is it a monster?"

"Run, everyone! There's a monster!"

The peripheral members had never encountered this situation before, and believed that they were not affected by the illusion, thinking that the spider in front of them was a monster in disguise.

Seeing most of the peripheral members below suddenly panic, Xia Chuan's lips twitched.

Hallucinogenic fog?
I never expected them to have such methods.

In the enclosed space of a castle, this hallucinogenic fog is more effective than Kaito's hypnotic gas.

Hypnotic gas puts everyone to sleep, but this hallucinogenic fog can plunge everyone into panic.

The chaos caused by panic will undoubtedly affect Xia Chuan's plans!
The fleeing members even caused a stampede, with some unfortunate members falling to the ground and being trampled unconscious.

"Open the ventilation ducts and ventilate at full capacity!"

As soon as Xia Chuan finished speaking, a huge gust of wind rushed out from the ventilation ducts, all the windows opened automatically, and the air inside and outside alternated, quickly dispersing the fog.

However, some members seemed to see some terrifying creatures in the hallucination, and they cried with their heads in their hands. Some even put their arms into their mouths as if they wanted to pull their tongues out.

The scene was extremely bizarre. When someone tried to stop it, they were grabbed and bitten by the victim, who shouted, "I've eaten you, you dead monster!"

Princess Thorn frowned, put some distance between herself and the spider, and became secretly wary.

The scene was too eerie; thankfully, she wore a mask beforehand to avoid inhaling the fog.

However, even if she removes her mask, she'll find that the fog has no effect on her whatsoever. This fog only works on those who are mentally unstable or panicked.

Princess Thorn stood still, her eyes scanning back and forth.

After the previous battle, her body and weapons were already covered in crimson blood. Against this strange backdrop, she was even more terrifying than a five-meter-tall spider, like a follower of death crawling out of hell to reap lives.

No one dared to come near her.

next moment!
Princess Thorn leaned forward, shooting out like a cannonball and swiftly reaping lives.

This is the best time to act. She doesn't know how many people are here, so she should kill as many as she can. Otherwise, every enemy she encounters during the retreat will increase the danger.

Some of the peripheral members had not yet fully recovered from the illusion when they were killed and said goodbye to this world.

Xia Chuan knew that if he didn't act now, the situation would get out of control. He vaulted over the second-floor railing with one hand, jumped directly to the first floor, landed steadily, and looked up, staring intently at the Thorn Princess in front of him.

Having fought the Thorn Princess once, Xia Chuan knew that he might be somewhat inferior to her in terms of martial arts skills. In addition, Tequila herself didn't seem to be very strong in combat. At this time, Gin was in the monitoring room, and he absolutely couldn't reveal too much of his strength.

Therefore, drawing a gun and firing is the best option.

Although the Thorn Princess can dodge bullets, she should at least try, right?

However, things turned out exactly as he had predicted.

Princess Thorn dodged the bullets with a few quick dodges, and in the process, she also killed two peripheral members with astonishing speed.

"As expected of the Thorn Princess."

The spider's lips twitched, and it muttered something under its breath.

He had only heard of people in this world who could dodge bullets before; this was the first time he had ever seen it.

Seriously, is this even human?

Xia Chuan glanced back and forth between the Thorn Princess and the Spider a few times, finally fixing his gaze on the Spider.

Compared to the Thorn Princess, the Spider is definitely easier to bully.

Since they can't defeat the Thorn Princess, why not take on the spider instead?

"You guys hold off Princess Thorn, I'll deal with the spider first!"

The next moment, gunshots filled the air like a woven net, enveloping Princess Thorn, while Xia Chuan charged towards the Spider.

"You bastard."

The spider clearly realized it was being underestimated, and in its anger, its three-eyed mask glowed brightly red.

Xia Chuan knew that the other party had begun to activate their hypnotic abilities.

However, this didn't work!
A sharp knife suddenly appeared in Xia Chuan's hand and flew out with a whoosh.

Clang——

Although the spider dodged the attack, a red bloodstain appeared on its face.

The hypnotic attack also failed.

"Wow, that's fast, spider!"

Xia Chuan chuckled lightly, maintaining his speed as he quickly approached the spider.

"Go to hell!"

The spider produced steel needles and, like a ninja throwing darts, hurled a whole stack of them at us.

Xia Chuan moved with lightning speed, taking off his clothes and dancing wildly in front of himself.

As the spider watched the fine needles pierce its clothes, it sensed the malice of the world.

What the hell is this?

Is he practicing Tai Chi in there? Is this martial arts novel coming to life? Is this how you supposed to block something like this?

While he was distracted, Xia Chuan raised his hand and fired two shots, the target being Spider's three-eyed mask.

The spider sensed the killing intent, and after recovering, immediately picked up the corpses of the distillery's outer perimeter members from the ground and used them as a shield in front of it.

The member on the outside of the distillery was most likely faking death. After being hit, he opened his eyes, looked at his wound in confusion, discovered the injury to his chest, and died instantly.

Even if you pretend to be dead, you'll be dragged up and used as a shield. Your luck is unbelievable.

Xia Chuan shook his head inwardly; perhaps firing a shot at this moment was no longer the best option.

Then let's engage in close combat!
He leaped up and delivered a knight's flying kick.

The spider crossed its arms in front of it to block the kick.

Finding the spider to be quite strong, actually blocking the flying kick, Xia Chuan used the momentum to spin 180 degrees in the air, then swung his other leg down forcefully, whipping it towards the spider's face, aiming precisely at the mask on its face.

The spider took a step back, taking the kick to the shoulder. It groaned but didn't show any fear. It suddenly raised its hands, with a steel needle between its fingers.

Like an old Chinese medicine doctor about to give acupuncture to a patient, he showed a "kind" smile and began to prick Xia Chuan's calf, which was still on his shoulder.

"You've fallen into a trap!"

Spider's hands moved with incredible speed, his sharp steel needles gleaming coldly. Once they pierced through, this guy, whose name was unknown but who was definitely a codenamed member of the brewery, would surely die.

In addition to being extremely sharp, the steel needles were also soaked in potent poison; anyone who came into contact with them would have no chance of survival!

Clang——

???

The spider stared blankly at the bent steel needle in its hand, three question marks appearing above its head.

"Why, not even a tear in your pants?"

Damn it, it's already ridiculous enough that the Thorn Princess can dodge bullets, and now she's encountered someone who practices Iron Shirt?

And it was truly an iron shirt; even his pants weren't punctured.

He was stunned for a moment, then shook off the bent steel needle in his hand and magically produced a few more.

This time, the target was his abdomen, which he could just reach.

Clang——

"."

The spider felt like it had wandered into the wrong movie set. Was the world going down a strange, detour? What should have been a scientific world seemed distorted.

Xia Chuan chuckled, naturally not telling the other party that his suit was a bulletproof version specially made by Professor Agasa.

After all, working in a distillery requires certain protective measures.

This suit uses spider silk as its raw material and adds a special agent to ensure its flexibility while also being able to withstand bullets.

There is also a very thin layer of flexible steel sandwiched in the middle, which allows air to pass through while ensuring that even a needle cannot pierce it.

The spider never expected to be defeated by its own silk. Its eyes widened, but it was too late to retreat.

Xia Chuan clamped his legs around the spider's head, bent backward, touched the ground with both hands, and then swung the spider's head upward.

This move can be roughly described as using your feet to pull up a willow tree while standing upside down.

The spider was thrown out like a doll, slamming hard onto the ground. Its three-eyed mask twisted and ended up covering its mouth.

One of the "eyes" broke and became dull and lifeless.

He scrambled to his feet, revealing the hideous scars behind his mask.

It turns out that his three-eyed mask was not only for hypnosis, but also to cover up disfigurement.

Seemingly enraged that someone had seen the scars on his face, he adjusted his mask and looked towards the outer group of members.

Although one eye of the three-eyed mask is broken, the other two eyes are still intact. As long as one eye is present, he can quickly cast hypnosis. The presence of the eye only speeds up the process, and losing one eye does not have a significant impact.

Several peripheral members who were not focused on fighting the Thorn Princess suddenly had blank stares, and after a moment of daze, they moved their guns toward Xia Chuan.

Bullets began to rain down.

"Oops!"
