Natsuki couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and pulled Sayuri and Nanako along quickly. Kato Yuri then stopped talking and hurriedly followed the others.

"Wait, Ms. Natsuki, Yuri is wrong, please wait for me..."

Not far away, a dark-skinned man who had been staring blankly at Xia Mu and the others "having fun" finally couldn't help but speak up:

"That Xia Mu guy, he already has the popularity of most of the students in the school, and he even has such a beautiful woman by his side. Damn it, I'm so envious!"

Peter glanced at his mother beside him, then at Xia Mu, who was surrounded by beauties, his envy evident in his eyes!

"Peter, hurry up! That supermarket's promotion is about to end. Why are you dawdling at your age?"

"Here I am! Besides, I'm already twenty-five years old. Why are you, my mother, still coming with me to buy underwear?"

Peter looked up to the sky and sighed. The despairing scene made the surrounding pedestrians move away a little.

Natsuki was unaware that a colleague had witnessed his outing with Kato Yuri, and all he wanted now was to end the "activity" as soon as possible.

After all, not long ago, Shiroshima had sent a message about the holder of the [Sacred Artifact]. Although Natsuki had sent Rika with Shiroshima, for some reason, he felt quite uneasy, as if some unknown entity was surrounding them.

"What...is it...?"

As he pondered, he glanced at Nanako's bracelet, recalling his earlier guess, and asked in a low voice, "Nanako, since the last incident, have you encountered anything similar..."

Before he could finish speaking, Nanako nodded knowingly, glanced at her mother, and then whispered back to Natsuki. Only after hearing the negative answer did she feel a little relieved.

"fine……"

Even so, Natsuki couldn't help but show a worried expression, especially after learning that the Illuminati might have mastered the method of locating the Holy Light, and that the Resonators who wielded the [Holy Artifact] would undoubtedly be in great danger. Even Sayuri and the others would have a hard time dealing with such an opponent, let alone the young Nanako.

Although his next words might break his previous promise, Xia Mu still felt that he had to take back the [Sacred Artifact] after hearing the laughter and joy coming from the mother and daughter.

So he spoke directly to the girl, "Nanako, your [Sacred Artifact]... I..."

Ok?

Xia Mu suddenly frowned. He looked up at the sky and saw that the huge bright moon had been covered up without him noticing. Clumps of black mist drifted in the air, turning the entire sky into a heavy black.

The lights on the surrounding buildings were flashing continuously for a while, then went out one after another. The pedestrians below finally realized that something was wrong and began to panic.

"What's going on? Why did it suddenly get dark—no, it's still nighttime!"

"How strange, the power has stopped and there's no cell phone signal. What's going on?"

"It's alright, this should only be temporary. Perhaps the government has some plans in place. Don't panic!"

"..."

The shouts of surprise made the whole street chaotic. Kato Yuri and Nanako hugged each other, their faces no longer showing the joy they had just had.

At that moment, Natsuki and Sayuri exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding each other's thoughts. As their expressions turned serious, they said in unison, "It's the Illuminati!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a series of howls, like those of wild beasts, suddenly erupted from above. A terrifying, monstrous creature, baring its fangs and claws and radiating a chilling aura, descended from the black mist atop the building. Its red eyes gleamed with bloodthirsty killing intent. A woman finally couldn't help but scream in terror, "A monster!!!"

……

Chapter 160 Purgatory!

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

In just a short while, several terrifying-looking ghosts fell from the black mist above.

With their sharp claws, they attach themselves to building surfaces, and with a simple hook and pull, the hard glass shatters, allowing them to break in and unleash a bloody slaughter!

Cries for help and screams echoed from the surrounding buildings. Every now and then, people who could not control their fear would fall directly from the high-rise buildings, making a "splatter" sound as they hit the ground, like tomato sauce "blooming" on the ground!

On the street, the crowd instantly descended into chaos. By the time they realized they could escape, it was too late. One after another, the ghostly creatures landed on the ground and began a wanton slaughter of the people, like wolves among sheep, turning the place into a scene comparable to purgatory!

"Run! Run!!!"

"Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer! My flesh doesn't taste good! Please eat the one next to me instead! Please—"

"Damn it, why are there suddenly so many monsters? Get out of my way!"

Among the crowd, some brave individuals drove their cars directly into the brutal ghosts, and with a loud "bang," the vehicles exploded!

The ghostly creature, however, was completely unharmed. It simply stretched out its claws, reached towards the center of the explosion, took out a charred object, and threw it into its mouth to tear it apart!

"Huffing and puffing..."

"Mom, I'm scared..."

At this moment, Nanako was clinging tightly to her mother. Despite the vows she had made, she still showed the fear that a little girl should have when faced with such a cruel scene.

Even Kato Yuri could only keep her eyes tightly closed, afraid of seeing some terrifying scenes!

She never imagined that she would encounter such a terrifying monster when she came to Tokyo with her daughter. Just as she was feeling regretful, a male voice suddenly reached her ears.

"Miss Yuri, please keep an eye on Nanako. We'll handle these guys!"

She subconsciously opened her eyes and saw a powerful figure and another girl with pigtails, radiating a warm light. Each time the light passed by, it would directly kill a ghost, showing a very powerful posture!

Looking at the scene before her, Kato Yuri finally recalled a familiar image: on the beach in her memory, it was the man in front of her who had rescued her and Nanako from danger!

"Wow...that's amazing..."

Kato Yuri murmured to herself, while Nanako in her arms seemed to sense the aura of holy light as well. She looked up at the two figures fighting in front of her, and a cross-shaped holy mark flashed in her eyes as well!

boom!

With another simple punch, Xia Mu annihilated the monsters without using any skills. He simply used his physical strength to wipe out these ghosts, which were generally level 2!

Now, after multiple enhancements, his physical abilities have reached a terrifying level. Although he may not be able to achieve the exaggerated level of Superman in movies and TV shows, he can still easily deal with level 2 ghosts!

As for Sayuri next to her, she had already activated her Holy Light state. Although it was only the initial state, she did not seem to be struggling too much. In fact, among the demons she defeated were several level 3 demons!

In just a few minutes, the bodies of many ghosts had fallen around the two of them. This caused the remaining ghosts to abandon their target and turn their red eyes toward this place. Roars rose and fell, and an even more intense battle seemed to be about to break out at any moment!

Therefore, those who were lucky enough to survive hid inside the building, only daring to peek out to look at where Xia Mu and the others were, while several questions arose in their minds—

Who are they?

Why were those seemingly terrifying monsters so easy for the two of them to defeat?

Could this man and woman be the legendary superpowered individuals?

……

Various different ideas kept emerging in the minds of many people.

In particular, a certain dark-skinned teacher, while tightly holding his mother, stared at where Natsuki was, his eyes filled with astonishment: "Teacher Natsuki, is he really this powerful?"

On the other side, Xia Mu swept his gaze over the numerous ghosts, and then landed on the dead bodies on the ground, his expression turning gloomy.

Something is wrong!

In past battles, the demons' targets were only human life force, but what just happened was simply a killing spree. This familiar scene seemed to have flashed through the depths of his mind before, but he could not recall it.

After thinking it over, he gave up and turned to Sayuri, saying, "Let's take care of them all!"

"Okay, Teacher Xia Mu!"

Sayuri raised her arm in response, and at the same time, the surrounding ghosts roared again, their red-glowing eyes staring intently at the two of them. The next moment, they charged forward together!

Roar! ! !

……

Beyond the black fog, an equally astonishing conflict was also erupting!

boom!

A powerful cannonball was launched towards the black mist, but the moment the two sides made contact, the cannonball was swallowed up by the black mist without even causing a ripple.

"Damn it, it's not working!"

On the scene, a commander wearing an official badge and military uniform couldn't help but swear as he watched this.

In the past, although the black fog could block electronic signals to some extent, the occurrence of several strange events in recent years has made the authorities aware of its existence.

When the black fog that nearly enveloped the entire Shibuya appeared, the troops stationed nearby immediately launched a probing attack in an attempt to rescue the hostages inside.

However, no matter what methods the military used, it was unable to break through the black fog barrier. Even the latest light missiles could not have any effect on the black fog!

"Damn it, if it weren't for the hostages inside, we could have used more powerful artillery!"

The commander cursed under his breath and prepared to order his troops to advance using other methods. But as soon as he picked up his binoculars, he noticed two blurry figures slowly emerging from the black fog.

"who is it?"

The officer who was closest immediately stepped forward to check on the situation, but before he could get close, he suddenly turned around and opened fire in the direction of the troops!

"Die!!!!!"

The fire snakes formed by each bullet instantly caused casualties to the troops who couldn't dodge in time. Before they could react, more people turned their guns on themselves!

bang bang bang...

Intense gunfire instantly spread throughout the army. Only then did the two blurry figures who had emerged raise their heads, a chilling smile playing on their lips!

"Ha ha……"

……

Chapter 161 The Great Battle Is About to Begin!

"How could I let you disturb me at such a crucial time? Heh..."

One of the figures in gray robes was emitting a strange laugh, and upon closer inspection, a ghostly creature of indistinct shape could be seen floating up and down in the shadow behind him.

The eerie light that flashed intermittently seemed to be connected with the chaotic army opposite, displaying a strange power.

"We need to speed things up. If it notices our movements, I'm afraid..."

After the other gray-robed figure finished speaking, both of them looked up at the sky. In the seemingly calm night sky, they saw a completely different scene—

A terrifying humanoid figure was raising its hand high, ready to strike, while the black mist also condensed into a similarly enormous figure to resist the attack. However, the downward trend clearly indicated that it could not hold out for long!

Seeing this, the two turned around at the same time. The moment they disappeared into the black mist again, the gunshots behind them immediately stopped, leaving only corpses scattered on the ground, making the scene even more sinister and terrifying!
