Crossover Anime: The Bull Demon's Road to Conquest

Page 48

"No, that guy... wasn't even seriously injured."

After using a repair spell to restore the combat shield that had almost been pierced and cracked, Takagi Saya frowned and replied that the guy behind her was still able to keep chasing her, his vitality was so strong that it was like a demon in the labyrinth ruins.

"Then let Zhizhi see how many more shots he can last."

As they were talking, after turning a corner, Zhiye decisively pressed the landmine's control button. Several violent explosions followed, and shrapnel flew everywhere, even blowing through the walls, floors, and ceilings of the corridor.

Although gunshots and explosions could be heard everywhere above ground, the underground seemed unaffected.

Using the excuse of leaving the command room, Yuriko Takagi went to the place where Mikoto and Hitagi were being held, but just as she was about to use her privileges to open the door, Fiona's voice sounded behind her.

"So it really was you? No, I should say that you and Saya are both... that demon's minions."

Fiona's calm voice came from behind, but Yuriko Takagi didn't seem too surprised and turned around to look at her.

"Well, before we came here, Saya and I had already submitted to that demon. However... being an inside man was not my original intention, or rather... I never expected... well, I never expected my brother to have such a career. In fact, I even lost contact with my master for a time."

Yuriko Takagi raised her hands, facing Fiona's gun, and spoke quite frankly. However, she was not lying; every word she said was true, but she also hid a lot of real information.

Fiona narrowed her eyes. Although she couldn't tell whether the other party's words were true or false, she suspected that the mother and daughter were probably being forced and controlled by demons, just like Mikoto. However, she didn't want to hurt them, so Fiona decided to lock them up first.

The most urgent task now is to defeat that demon, but relying solely on the strength of the Black Label is probably not enough to defeat it... or even protect themselves.

Fortunately, Chairman Mochizuki had already contacted a helper beforehand: a mysterious mercenary group called VENUS.

Chapter 104 Fellow Villagers

The roar of the helicopter tore through the night. The side door opened, and a man in a white uniform looked down at the Mochizuki Hospital, where explosions and gunshots were constantly occurring.

"It seems we're a bit late. I hope Dr. Mochizuki isn't in any trouble."

The white-robed man named Gu Da Chi Ye sighed, then his expression changed, revealing a confident look as he continued, "However, now that we're here, then... whatever kind of demon or monster they are, they will all be punished."

"Then, let's get started."

Transparent floorboards appeared one by one, and then, led by the man in white, five girls in red uniforms walked one after another onto the transparent floorboards toward Mochizuki Hospital.

"It's a pity that Celia has a concert to attend and couldn't come to Japan with us."

Ariel, a blonde, blue-eyed girl with a loli-like figure, couldn't help but mutter something under her breath, but then she didn't care anymore. In their opinion, with them taking action, the battle would end quickly.

(I'm seriously impressed by this manga artist. There are just too many plot holes. This character named Celia is actually a transgender effeminate man?!)

At this moment, the interior of Mochizuki Hospital was on the verge of being breached.

Click~

The riot door to the solitary confinement cell was opened, and Yuriko Takagi walked in carrying the unconscious Fiona.

"Huh?" Hitagi looked up at Takashiro Yuriko.

"Fiona...?!"

Mikoto jumped up and quickly walked over.

"Don't worry, she just fainted."

Yuriko Takagi continued with a hint of helplessness, "Although my abilities shouldn't qualify me as a combatant, it's clear that Miss Fiona's combat strength is even weaker. I just never expected that the biggest secret of the Black Label would be Miss Fiona."

"Wha...what?!"

Upon hearing that Fiona was alright, Mikoto breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt somewhat puzzled by Yuriko Takagi's words.

"What? Misaka doesn't know?"

Yuriko Takagi feigned surprise, which only made Mikoto feel more annoyed.

"Possessing a body that is almost immortal to ordinary people, and is even the source of that coveted secret medicine..."

"what?!"

Mikoto was even more surprised and confused upon hearing this, and looked at Fiona, who was slumped in Takashiro Yuriko's arms, with a puzzled expression.

"Let's go, stop dawdling here, our master should be here soon."

Yuriko Takagi had no intention of explaining further. She turned and led Fiona out of the confinement room. Behind them, Hitagi, who had been silent all along, reached out and nudged the stunned Mikoto.

Shortly after Hitagi and Mikoto left the sealed room with Yuriko, they heard a deep and loud rumbling sound, as if... the underground fortress had finally been breached.

It's not just like that, it was definitely breached.

Before Niu Kun made his move, Black Label seemed destined to lose.

However, a new competitor entered the fray at this time.

A magnificent aura unfolded, instantly enveloping the entire Wangyue Hospital.

This is a divine artifact shared by twin sisters named Ariel and Lil, the Dagda Cauldron, which is said to be a powerful barrier that can fix time and space. When the barrier is broken, all the damage and injuries suffered by everything and everyone within the barrier will be restored to their original state.

"Heh, finally...it's getting interesting."

Niu Kun, who had just stepped out of the RV, looked up at the top of the main building of Wangyue Hospital. After saying that, Niu Kun turned to look at Dongxiang Lige: "I wasn't planning to use it, but since an unexpected event has occurred, let's use it for now."

Dongxiang Lige snapped out of her daze and nodded to Niu Kun with even greater excitement. After receiving the contract enhancement, especially the mental enhancement, she had gained the qualifications to become a mage.

Her keen senses allowed Togo Rika to also perceive the existence of the barrier. This was an extremely pleasant surprise for her; a brand new world was indeed unfolding before her eyes without any concealment.

Although it was too late to create weapons and equipment specifically for Niu Kun, the Syringe Organization had previously conducted considerable research, including using modern technology combined with mysterious inheritances and extraordinary materials to create equipment that could not be mass-produced.

He changed into an oversized combat suit, which looked as light as leather, but its protective power was comparable to heavy bulletproof plates or super-heavy chest armor. However... because Niu Kun's upper body was too muscular, he could barely put on the oversized combat suit and then couldn't zip it up.

But if he couldn't pull it up, he would put on a belt and then hang a whole set of ranged and melee weapons on his body. He held a heavy shield that was 1.8 meters tall in his left hand. The front of the shield was decorated with a half-body portrait of a naked woman with protruding breasts, which was particularly to Niu Kun's liking.

In his right hand he carried a 20mm triple-barreled heavy machine gun with formidable firepower. Unfortunately, even with a huge ammunition box on his back, Niu Kun could only be a tough guy for three seconds.

"Target! Target spotted!"

Just as the barrier was set in motion, Niu Kun's whereabouts were detected, and the information was quickly relayed to Captain Gu Da Chi Ye.

Standing atop the Mochizuki Hospital building, Kodachiya looked down with a grave expression at the incredibly robust figure with a ferocious, monstrous appearance... no, that was a monster.

"The demonic energy is so strong; it must be a monster from the demon realm."

"No matter what kind of monster it is, just defeat and eliminate it. Let me handle it."

With her hair wrapped in a rustic jellyfish-like style on the right side, the black-haired, black-eyed girl named Yang Ming, from China, spoke.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Gu Da Chiye nodded and said, "Yang, be careful, I'll cover you."

"Ah."

After responding, Yang Ming nimbly jumped down from the rooftop, but before she could land, she was bombarded by a burst of machine gun fire. After a flash, Yang Ming, with a solemn expression, appeared not far in front of Niu Kun.

"As fast as lightning."

Niu Kun first nodded, acknowledging the other party's ability, then looked at the girl and shook his head, sighing in Chinese, "Such a nice girl, how come she doesn't know how to dress up? She's so unfashionable."

"Forehead...."

Yang Ming, who had just landed, was stunned by what she heard. It wasn't just that the other person said her outfit was too rustic, but also that the other person could speak Chinese. Could the other person be a monster from China?

"Of course! I got into trouble back home, and I never expected to run into a fellow countryman here with the Japanese. As the saying goes, when fellow countrymen meet... they shoot each other!"

Before he could finish speaking, Niu Kun, with a wicked smile on his face, pulled the trigger, unleashing another short burst of three machine gun fire. Amidst the exploding flames, Yang Ming once again transformed into lightning and dodged ahead of time.

"Damn it, I've run into a real 'fellow countryman'."

Yang Ming, who had just appeared, muttered a low complaint with a dark expression, showing no joy at meeting a fellow countryman in a foreign land. Then, in the next instant, he transformed into lightning again and approached Niu Kun.

--Thunder Hunter!

(The plot of this manga is simply speechless, and the design of the female characters is inconsistent. The female characters in VENUS are not very good, and their uniforms are too ugly.)

Chapter 105 Battle

A burst of lightning shot straight at Niu Kun. In the next instant, Yang Ming suddenly jumped out of the lightning and threw a punch at Niu Kun, while Niu Kun raised his heavy shield to block it.

--Spiral Crushing Hammer

In the instantaneous burst of lightning, the immense force that suddenly erupted was transmitted from the heavy shield to Niu Kun, and the concrete ground instantly shattered into a pit. However, Niu Kun, who was holding the heavy shield for defense, suddenly lunged down and stepped into the concrete ground. His body only swayed slightly, but he did not take a single step back.

"Um?!"

With his eyes wide open, Yang Ming felt as if he had struck an unyielding mountain. The monster in front of him was no ordinary person.

Yang Ming not only practiced martial arts and cultivated internal strength from a young age, but his physique had already surpassed the limits of ordinary people. He also possessed the divine golden whip, which was not a weapon to be used directly, but a type of enhanced equipment that could be integrated into his body.

"not bad."

Niu Kun nodded, casually tossed the heavy machine gun to the ground, and then threw a punch, the wind of which tore through the air, but he missed.

A flash of lightning appeared above and to the side of Niu Kun, and Yang Ming unleashed a series of whip kicks at Niu Kun. Niu Kun was unable to block in time, but thanks to his thick skin and tough flesh, he managed to withstand a whole set of whip kicks from Yang Ming.

"The massage pressure was pretty good."

Niu Kun shook his neck, which had been hit twice in a row. It was still quite painful, but that was all. Niu Kun calmly drew a battle axe from his waist and slashed at a spot where lightning flashed.

Yang Ming suddenly appeared and quickly leaned back to dodge Niu Kun's axe strike, which he had anticipated. After several leaps, he created distance between them.

"Were you seen through so quickly?"

Yang Ming's expression grew increasingly solemn. Her body was not strong enough to withstand the recoil from directly colliding with the opponent after transforming into lightning, so she could only reveal herself the moment she got close to the opponent and then launch an attack using the remaining momentum of the lightning.

Although Niu Kun wasn't very agile, his perception wasn't bad either. He could predict Yang Ming's location by observing the movement of the lightning and thus launch a counterattack in advance.

Just like Yang Ming dodging Niu Kun's machine gun fire, he didn't directly dodge the shells, but judged the trajectory of the shots based on the angle of Niu Kun's machine gun, and dodged a second in advance. Of course, this was not an easy task either.

"Well, it's not that difficult. You... you're probably not alone. Get your companions out here, I'm in a hurry."

Niu Kun twirled his battle axe and said rather arrogantly.

"Insanity."

Yang Ming snorted coldly, and then his fists suddenly crackled with dazzling lightning. It wasn't the lightning that enveloped his fists, but his entire fists transformed into pure lightning, as if they had become elements.

However, with her current strength, she can only elementalize her fists, and even then, she can only maintain elementalization for a short time.

Let's settle this once and for all.

Before he finished speaking, Yang Ming's figure suddenly shot towards Niu Kun with lightning speed.

--Thunderous Hammer

--charge

--reckless

At the same time, Niu Kun also activated his skill, carrying a heavy giant shield and crashing into the opponent like the front of a high-speed train. Charge is self-explanatory, while the Reckless skill, in simple terms, is to give up some defense and turn to a more focused offense.

The moment the two collided, silver snakes danced wildly, the ground caved in and stones flew, the explosion sounded like the roar of dynamite, and amidst the blinding flashes of lightning, Yang Ming's petite figure was sent flying backward.

It fell several meters away, rolled around a few times, and then fell silent. It's unclear whether it died or fainted.

"They actually refrained from making a move?"

Niu Kun glanced at the naked woman's giant shield in his hand, which had been blasted with a large hole in its first battle, and shook his head with regret. In addition to the damaged giant shield, Niu Kun also had a charred wound on his right shoulder.

A large chunk of beef was missing from the wound, and even the stark white shoulder bone was visible. However, Niu Kun didn't seem to care much. Instead, he turned to look at the white-clad man who had appeared out of nowhere.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Gu Da Chiye, the captain of the VENUS mercenary unit under the God Hunting Organization."

Kodai Akaya held a strangely shaped pistol, but his attitude was quite polite, and he did not feel anxious or helpless at all because his subordinates had lost their fighting ability.

"Oh, should I introduce myself? No, no, that would make me seem too polite and too cultured."

Niu Kun shook his head, making no attempt to introduce himself, and continued, "So, do you have anything else to say? If not, then prepare to die."

Gu Da Chiye glanced at Niu Kun's shoulder, where the wound was rapidly healing and regenerating. The speed of recovery was astonishing. This monster... really is a monster.

...........

"Phew~ I didn't expect the senior to be so difficult to deal with. Well then, all I need to do now is take the two of them back. That perverted master should be satisfied, right?"

Inside the hospital, now reduced to near ruins, looking at the battered and bruised Kaoru, Kaoru said with a hint of smugness.

"Don't be too careless, the battle... isn't over yet."

Kaoru, who was originally going to pick up the unconscious Tomoko Sagiri, suddenly changed her expression and straightened up to look at... a woman holding a trident who walked into her line of sight.

He was nearly 1.8 meters tall, with a handsome yet beautiful face, purple hair styled in a bun with two long, thin braids hanging down, but his face seemed expressionless.

"You are... the devil's minions, aren't you?"
