Tokyo Knights: The Odd Jobs X Files

Helena, who was being protected by Leona, also saw Li Xin's "danger." Having just fought a fierce battle with the cyborg warriors, she was exhausted and could only rely on Leona for protection. However, she still couldn't help but say, "Miss Leona, don't worry about me, go save Xin!"

She felt guilty. She thought that Li Xin had become like this because he was protecting her from the self-destruction of the modified warriors. If it weren't for her, Li Xin, with his strength, would never have been in such a sorry state.

Leona remained silent, but inwardly she thought, "That guy has accumulated far too many romantic entanglements..."

Inside the ship's banquet hall, the guests, seeing the competition suddenly turn into a chaotic brawl, did not panic but instead became even more excited.

Especially the blood splatter from the self-destruction of those modified warriors was simply too beautiful.

That's how it should be! That's what makes a battle exciting!

The guests applauded, applauding the exciting battle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is my impromptu performance to your satisfaction?"

A middle-aged white man, who looked like a gentleman, slowly walked down the stairs of the banquet hall and addressed the guests in the hall.

The middle-aged white man was Donovan. Contrary to what Li Xin and the others had expected, Donovan didn't even plan to wait until the end of the match. He launched his attack shortly after the match began, catching Li Xin and the others completely off guard.

And that's exactly what Donovan wanted.

What a joke! If you could guess what I'm going to do next, would it still be called a conspiracy?

Donovan was pleased with his plan, especially seeing Li Xin being thoroughly suppressed by Nuga and Vega, which made him even happier.

Coming down from upstairs was not only Donovan, but also a woman in a kimono, Miyako. However, unlike the confident Donovan who felt he had everything under control, Miyako seemed somewhat uneasy.

Miyako is Donovan's ally, but even allies need capital. Her two original assets, the Japanese branch of "DOATEC" and "Heart," are now gone. Miyako is terrified that Donovan will discover her true nature.

Feeling like he was at the pinnacle of his life, Donovan didn't notice Miyako's unusual behavior. He walked to the group of guests, raised his glass to them, and said, "Today is a wonderful day. Let's drink!"

Donovan's arrival created a tense atmosphere, but the guests remained completely calm.

They are all prominent figures in European high society, bigwigs in politics and business. Regardless of whether Fim or Donovan wins, they will both try to win them over. For them, today's war is just a rare spectacle to watch from first class. They don't need to worry about their own safety and can enjoy the show.

On the top deck of the ship, Fim was unaware of Donovan's appearance and that Donovan had already identified himself as the victor, even preparing to reap the rewards of victory. Nevertheless, his face was still filled with worry.

Although he knew Li Xin was acting, Fim still felt uneasy seeing him get beaten so badly.

"Mr. Fim, are you worried about Mr. 'X'?"

Lei Dao suddenly moved closer to Fim and stood behind him.

Sensing Lei Dao's approach, Fim immediately tensed up, but still managed to remain calm and said, "Mr. Lei Dao, are you going down to help Ah Xin? That would be wonderful."

After learning Lei Dao's identity, Fim had been wary of him. For the past two days, he had given Lei Dao the day off, citing Li Xin's presence. But today, having no other reason, he had to keep Lei Dao by his side.

When Lei Dao suddenly spoke, Fim naturally tensed up. At the same time, he looked around, trying to find the so-called absolutely reliable bodyguard that Li Xin had promised, but he could only see the petite and charming young woman, and did not see anyone else.

Is he a ninja?

Fim guessed in his heart that Li Xin had been receiving a ninja friend these days, and Fim could only suspect that the person protecting him was a ninja who was rarely seen.

Lei Dao laughed heartily and said to Fim, "Mr. Fim, there's no need for such trouble. As long as you surrender to Mr. Donovan and hand over all your assets to him, Donovan will naturally spare your life out of consideration for your long-standing friendship."

Upon hearing Lei Dao's words, Fim frowned and said, "So you really are Donovan's man..."

Lei Dao stopped laughing and looked at Fim with a serious expression: "You actually knew that."

With his hands behind his back, Fim turned to face Raido and said, "That's right, I told you your identity a long time ago: Raido, the traitor of Shinobi Village."

"traitor?"

Upon hearing this title, Lei Dao burst into laughter: "A bunch of pedantic fools who could be buried in the ground, dare to call me a traitor? They're utterly absurd!"

A surge of power, like black smoke, erupted from Lei Dao. He reached out to Fim: "Mr. Fim, we've spent some time together. I advise you not to resist. Just let me take you to see Mr. Donovan. What do you think?"

Just as Fim was about to say something, a strange noise came from outside. Fim turned his head to look, and even Lei Dao stopped what he was doing to check the commotion outside.

Let's turn back the clock a little bit.

Nuga and Vega joined forces to attack Li Xin. Li Xin, "poisoned," was powerless to resist, and the two of them had a great time, venting all the anger they had suffered at Li Xin's hands.

But as Nuga and Vega fought, they suddenly sensed something was wrong. Why was it that even though they were fighting so fiercely, Li Xin, despite being weak, was still persevering and hadn't been killed?

Was it because of the combat suit he was wearing?

Nuga and Vega thought to themselves.

They could naturally tell that Li Xin was wearing some kind of specially made combat suit with strong defensive capabilities.

It was this combat suit that absorbed most of their attack power, allowing Li Xin, who was poisoned, to hold on until now.

Nuga and Vega were well aware of the power of the combat suits.

In fact, what they are wearing now is a special combat suit developed by "NESTS" that can greatly enhance combat power. Each one is extremely expensive. Donovan obtained it from "NESTS" after reaching some agreements and exchanging certain technologies.

It is said that there are even more advanced combat suits inside "NESTS", but those kinds of combat suits are considered the most precious treasures of "NESTS" and will never be leaked.

Even if it's not the highest-grade combat suit, the combat suits that Nuga and Donovan are wearing now, although they look thin, have many sophisticated components running inside, greatly increasing the power of their every move, and their defense is so strong that they can withstand multiple attacks from extraordinary powerhouses without being hurt in the slightest.

Knowing how powerful Li Xin's combat suit was, Nuga and Vega exchanged a glance, deciding they could no longer use these "minor" moves and were preparing to unleash their full power.

Although the "Edo Mist Flower" is said to be able to restrain extraordinary powerhouses, Li Xin is clearly not an ordinary extraordinary powerhouse. He was able to withstand the attacks of two people for so long while poisoned, so it is not impossible that he could neutralize the poison if the situation dragged on any longer.

With a furious roar, he charged towards Li Xin, preparing to unleash his most cruel technique, "Death's End."

Meanwhile, Vega was also assisting from the side, releasing his powerful mental energy from a distance to impact Li Xin's mind.

However, when Vega's mental energy surged toward Li Xin like a tidal wave, he found that Li Xin's mental energy was as stable as a mountain. His mental energy surged toward Li Xin, but not only did it not shake Li Xin's spirit, it also generated a backlash, causing his mental energy to become disordered.

It's now!

Finally getting his chance, Li Xin quickly used a secret technique to activate his mental power. The powerful and condensed mental power surged in the opposite direction of Vega's mental power, causing Vega's vision to go black and blood to flow from his seven orifices. His mental state was severely damaged.

This is impossible...

This was the first time Vega, who had spent his entire life wielding mental power, had been countered by someone using mental power. Even his mortal enemy and senior sister Rose had never suppressed Vega's mental power to this extent.

Nuga, who was charging towards Li Xin, sensed that something had happened to his ally, but he was already prepared and charged towards Li Xin with all his might, his ultimate move "Death End" was on the verge of being unleashed.

Suddenly, a strange sensation surged through Nuga's heart. His blood seemed to freeze, and the surrounding air felt almost tangible, imprisoning him completely. The "Death's End" technique, which had been poised to strike, suddenly became unsustainable. A powerful force erupted from his body, causing many of Nuga's meridians to burst. If it weren't for the waterproof nature of his combat suit, he would have been covered in blood.

This sudden change all stemmed from a pair of hands, a pair of blood-red hands.

Li Xin's hands were blood red, looking sinister and terrifying. Two strange true energies shot out from Li Xin's hands, controlling the blood energy in Nuga's body, causing the "Orochi blood" in his body to fall into dormancy. Without the support of the "Orochi blood", the "Orochi power" immediately went into chaos, which caused Nuga to fall to the bottom at the moment of its greatest power.

Li Xin, who was supposed to be at a disadvantage and about to be killed by the combined forces of Nuga and Vega, suddenly turned the tide in an instant, surprising everyone.

The most shocked was Donovan. The wine glass he was holding slipped from his hand and shattered on the ground, splashing red wine that stained his white leather shoes. But Donovan didn't care; he just stared wide-eyed and said, "This is impossible!"

Lei Dao was equally incredulous. He knew very well the strength of these two guys who had entered the extraordinary realm before him. The two had just been on the winning side, and it could even be said that they were only one step away from victory. How could they suddenly suffer such a crushing defeat?

No, we haven't lost yet, he's still here!

Lei Dao understood that since Li Xin had defeated Nuga and Vega, the other modified warriors would eventually be wiped out. The only way to turn the tide was to capture Fim Douglas and use him as a hostage to force Li Xin to surrender!

At this moment, Fim was only one meter away from Lei Dao. At this distance, Lei Dao could easily grab Fim with a wave of his hand. But now, in this cabin, besides him and Fim, there was only a petite woman who was so frightened that she couldn't move. No one could stop him!

Lei Dao reached out to grab Fim, but his arm suddenly bumped into something. Although there was nothing in front of him, the air in front of him was like an impenetrable wall, preventing Lei Dao from passing through.

This is……

Sensing something was wrong, Lei Dao immediately unleashed the "Orochi Power" hidden within his body. His power increased exponentially, and he finally broke through the obstruction. However, just as his large hand was about to touch Fim, it was stopped by a hand as white as jade and dazzlingly white.

Mori, who had been quietly waiting in the cabin, stretched out her white hand and gently pushed Raidou far away. Raidou, who possessed the "power of Orochi," was like an infant in front of Mori!

After pushing Lei Dao away, Maurice stood in front of Fim to protect him. With a push of her hands, she transformed them into a gigantic, overwhelming hand that gripped Lei Dao completely.

Although these white hands and Li Xin's bloody hands are different in color, their unique strength is exactly the same.

Lei Dao's entire power was sealed, and he immediately deflated like a punctured balloon.

He stared at Moriarty with disbelief: "You're an extraordinary powerhouse..."

Given Lei Dao's strength, which is only a hair's breadth away from that of an extraordinary expert, only an extraordinary expert could subdue him so easily.

Mao Lixia nodded slightly, acknowledging Lei Dao's statement.

Indeed, after cultivating with Li Xin using the "Charming Maiden Technique" to repair the flaws in the "Undying Seal Technique" and fully digesting the internal energy left by her father, Mao Lixia finally broke through the limits, entered the realm of the extraordinary, and became an extraordinary powerhouse.

Fim, who was being protected by Mori, swallowed hard, even more incredulous than Raide.

He never expected that this seemingly petite and charming young woman would actually be an extraordinary powerhouse.

After sealing Lei Dao's acupoints, Mori Xia turned to Fim and said, "Mr. Fim, I'm sorry. In order to lure out the enemy, I had to conceal my strength. I startled you just now."

"So, you're not a housekeeper for 'X' Agency, and this is just a cover identity for you?"

"Fim asked."

"Do not."

Morisha shook her head, then said to Fim very seriously, "I am indeed the firm's housekeeper, that's absolutely true."

Now, being an assassin is her side job; being a cleaning lady is her main job.

"what?"

Phim Douglas was stunned.

Chapter 701 We'll be back!

"Ah-Xin, Lei Dao has been subdued, and Donovan has appeared. We can finish this now."

Mao Lixia's voice rang in Li Xin's mind. Li Xin looked towards the top cabin and saw Mao Lixia standing in front of the window, smiling and waving at him.

Li Xin smiled slightly and said to Mao Lixia in his heart, "You've worked hard."

Although the two are a hundred meters apart, they can easily transmit their thoughts to each other without any hindrance through a spiritual connection.

This ability all stemmed from a unique skill that Mao Lixia taught Li Xin.

Before coming to Paris, Li Xin knew very well that the biggest challenge of this operation was how to capture Donovan and his men in one fell swoop.

Luring them out is one thing, as long as we show weakness, we can lure Donovan and his men out. The problem is how to stop them from escaping.

Chun-Li and Li Xin mentioned that Vega has the ability to teleport. Previously, Vega was severely injured when he was defeated by Akuma, who had interfered in his fighting tournament. Chun-Li, Cammy, Guile, and others took advantage of the situation and chased after the seriously injured Vega, surrounding him.

Chun-Li originally thought that this time she would finally be able to bring Vega to justice and avenge her dead father, but at the last moment, Vega teleported away and escaped, causing Chun-Li and the others to lose all their efforts at the last moment.

If we can't find a way to break Vega's teleportation ability, then the plan to capture Donovan and the others is out of the question.

In order to break Vega's teleportation ability, Li Xin and others thought of many methods, but they could not determine whether they were feasible. Finally, Mao Lixia came up with an idea—Vega is a fighter who specializes in mental power, and his teleportation should also be driven by mental power. If they could severely damage his mental power, they might be able to break his teleportation ability.

Chun-Li approved of this idea. Vega was forced to use teleportation to escape when he was in dire straits, which shows that teleportation is not an easy thing for Vega. If Vega's mental strength can be severely damaged, it may prevent him from using the ability to teleport.

Severely damaging Vega's mental strength sounds simple, but it has become a problem in practice.

Li Xin and Hayabusa are skilled at killing, but they are helpless against mental attacks. The only master of mental power that Li Xin knows is Athena Asamiya, but the problem is that Athena Asamiya is only a first-level extraordinary person. Compared with Vega, her mental power is like a trickle compared to a mighty river. Sending Athena Asamiya to deal with Vega is tantamount to sending her to her death.

Although Li Xin's cultivation of the "Mingyu Gong" has the effect of refining the spirit, making his mental power powerful and condensed, comparable to that of extraordinary experts who have mastered mental power, the "Mingyu Gong" lacks a matching mental technique. Li Xin possesses a formidable mental power but has no way to use it. This leaves him with enough strength to defend himself but insufficient to attack when facing mental attacks, making it impossible for him to damage Vega's mental power.

At this moment, Mao Lixia once again proposed a way to break the deadlock, which was to have Li Xin cultivate the extraordinary skill of their Heaven-Mending lineage, the "Mastery of the Roots of All Laws Wisdom Scripture".

According to Maurice, this "Scripture on the Wisdom of the Source of All Dharmas" is a chapter in the "Sabulagam" of the Persian Great Ming Zun religion.

"Sabluogan" is the supreme martial art of the Great Ming Zun Sect, encompassing everything. It is a martial arts manual that is no less than ten volumes in one, called "Tianmo Ce". "Yujin Wanfa Genyuan Zhijing" is the most profound and mysterious martial art in "Sabluogan", which can only be practiced by the successive leaders of the Great Ming Zun Sect, Dazun and Yuanzi.

The successor of Butian Pavilion joined the Great Ming Sect by chance and became a member of the sect. He was taught the "Mastery of the Origin of All Laws" and, with his extraordinary talent, he merged the "Undying Seal Technique" with the "Mastery of the Origin of All Laws" to create a bizarre and unparalleled martial art called "Black Hand Demon Art". After that, the "Mastery of the Origin of All Laws" and "Black Hand Demon Art" became the inherited martial arts of the Butian lineage and were passed down from generation to generation.

However, the cultivation threshold of the "Mastering the Root of All Laws Wisdom Scripture" is extremely high. Those with shallow skills will not only find it useless to practice it, but may even be seriously injured. Previously, when Mao Lixia's skills were still shallow, she only practiced the "Spirit Refining Technique" in the "Mastering the Root of All Laws Wisdom Scripture" to improve her spiritual power. She did not dare to practice any other martial arts.

It wasn't until Mao Lixia and Li Xin used the "Charming Maiden Technique" to combine yin and yang, repairing the hidden dangers in the "Undying Seal Technique," and fully digesting the power her father had passed down to her, that she had the confidence to cultivate the "Mastering the Root of All Laws Wisdom Scripture," and with the help of the "Mastering the Root of All Laws Wisdom Scripture," she broke through to the extraordinary realm.

It was because she had tasted the benefits of the "Scripture of Wisdom that Exhausts All Laws" that, when discussing with Li Xin how to break Vega's teleportation, Mori Xia proposed using mental power to break mental power.

Originally, the "Mastery of All Laws and Roots of Wisdom Scripture" was a secret technique of the Heaven-Mending lineage and was never to be passed on to outsiders. However, when a woman falls in love with a man, she will often spare no effort and want to give him anything good. Mori was no exception.

For Mao Lixia, she would not hesitate to give anything of hers to Li Xin as long as it was something he wanted or that could help him. So when Li Xin needed a mental attack technique, Mao Lixia took the initiative to teach him the "Mastery of All Laws and Roots of Wisdom Scripture" without even asking him to say anything.

Well, this is probably why many family-inherited unique skills are "passed down to sons but not daughters." Once martial arts are passed on to a daughter, it is equivalent to passing them on to a son-in-law or grandson, and the martial arts are considered to have been passed on to outsiders and are no longer unique.

In short, with Mao Lixia's complete instruction, Li Xin quickly learned the extraordinary skill "The Scripture of Wisdom that Controls All Laws and Their Roots" which originated from the Great Ming Sect of Persia.

The "Mastering the Roots of All Laws" originated in Persia, and its martial arts philosophy is very different from the Central Plains martial arts that Li Xin had previously practiced, emphasizing spiritual cultivation rather than qi and physical strength.

The scriptures are divided into two volumes, the Bright Scroll and the Dark Scroll. Originally, the Atom of the Great Ming Venerable Sect could only cultivate the Dark Scroll, which mainly focuses on the "power of destruction." However, the successor of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion later used some means to obtain the Bright Scroll, which mainly focuses on the "power of growth," thus completing both the Bright Scroll and the Dark Scroll.

However, the cultivation methods in the two volumes, the light and the dark, are contradictory and conflicting. Generally speaking, practitioners can only focus on one volume, but when they reach the pinnacle of a certain volume, they can transform into each other.

However, this requires extremely high talent and cultivation. Successors of the Heaven-Mending lineage have already struggled to cultivate the "Undying Seal Technique" and have never cultivated the "Mastery of the Roots of All Laws Scripture" to its fullest extent. At most, they have cultivated the "Blood Hand Miracle Skill" within it to the "Black Hand" level and considered it done.

This "Blood Hand Miracle Skill" is the most extraordinary skill in the "Mastery of All Laws and Roots of Wisdom Scripture". It can make the hands shoot out various forms of true energy, which is concentrated and does not disperse. It can even tear birds from the sky and freeze the opponent.

When true energy is distributed in both hands, those hands can be transformed into weapons, no less powerful than any divine weapon, which is truly miraculous.
