Chapter 744: “Nightfall” Mark
Above Tokyo.
In the night that devoured the sky, a figure stepped onto the rolling clouds, walking slowly.
The black trench coat rustled in the wild wind, and beneath the menacing Sun Wukong mask, a pair of eyes shone like molten metal, coldly gazing down at the bustling city below. Five long knives—jet black, light purple, deep blue, pale gray, and snow white—hung at his waist, mysterious and eerie.
He was like the king of the night, standing atop the clouds, ruling over Tokyo.
Under the aura of [God’s Concealment], Lin Qiye unleashed the [Night Sky Descends] he had learned from the essence of the night to its fullest. The night shroud spread out from his black trench coat, enveloping the entire sky above Tokyo!
In an instant, day turned to night.
This sudden darkness caused everyone in Tokyo to look up in confusion, pointing at the night sky with their hands, their eyes filled with bewilderment and curiosity…
Why did it suddenly get dark in broad daylight?
Is it going to rain?
Moments later, in the pitch-black city of Tokyo, the streetlights flickered on like stars scattered across the earth.
The neon lights in blue and purple at the tops of the shops on both sides of the street began to twinkle, illuminating the various signs, creating a dazzling and beautiful dreamlike realm that lit up a corner of the night.
Under the streetlights and neon, people felt a slight sense of reassurance.
But they did not know what kind of evil and bloodshed lurked behind this dreamlike luxury of lights.
In the International Financial Building.
The first Oracle Envoy, “Disaster of Hell,” stood by the window, staring at the pitch-black night above, his expression suddenly turning grave.
“That is…”
“An intruder?” Disease Disaster walked over to him, frowning as he spoke, “It seems that the third team also discovered an intruder in Akihabara just now. Should we let them continue the pursuit?”
Disaster of Hell pondered for a moment and shook his head.
“Don’t pursue for now; something feels off… Call them all back.”
…
Under the night sky.
Lin Qiye stepped onto the [Somersault Cloud] and directly arrived at the top of the silver disc floating above Tokyo, where a boy in a white lab coat carrying a black coffin and a girl in a white dress floating beside him had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Lin Qiye arrive on the clouds, An Qingyu’s lips curled into a smile.
“You finally made it, Qiye.”
“Yeah.” Lin Qiye smiled as he waved away the clouds and walked up to the two of them. “Qingyu, Jiang Er, how have you been during this time?”
“Very well.” Jiang Er’s voice came from the Bluetooth speaker at An Qingyu’s waist, and she smiled silently, “We managed to steal the Oracle Envoy’s home and took all their technological research results.”
Lin Qiye gave the two a thumbs up. “Impressive, as expected of you.”
“We can catch up later when we get back.” An Qingyu adjusted her glasses, her expression gradually becoming serious. “Now, the other team members should be nearby in Tokyo. Jiang Er, call them and have them come to [Pure Land] immediately…”
“No need to be so troublesome.”
Lin Qiye suddenly spoke.
An Qingyu and Jiang Er looked at him in confusion.
Lin Qiye smiled slightly, extending his hands to grasp the snow-white and jet-black long knives at his waist.
[White Slash], [Black Rope].
Clang—!!
The two cursed blades were drawn simultaneously!
Lin Qiye held the white knife in one hand and the black knife in the other, raising them towards the heavy clouds in the night sky, and in an instant, he slashed out with both knives!
Crack.
The dual knives returned to their sheaths.
At the same time, above [Pure Land], the heavy clouds of the night sky were effortlessly sliced open, revealing a massive black arc. Two straight white knife marks intersected to divide this arc, and the point where the two knife marks met was the center of the arc, which was also where Lin Qiye stood.
The two knife marks cut through the darkness.
This was the unique mark of the [Nightfall] team.
“I see.” An Qingyu smiled upon seeing this pattern. “This will indeed speed things up…”
She turned to Lin Qiye and asked seriously, “Shall we begin now?”
“Let’s start.”
Lin Qiye stood above [Pure Land], looking down at the neon city shrouded in darkness. “The Oracle Envoys are too scattered and hiding very discreetly. We must use some means to force them to reveal themselves…
Is everything ready?”
“Ready.” Jiang Er waved her hand gently, and a drone equipped with a camera began to hover above the silver disc.
Lin Qiye nodded and took a deep breath.
“Let’s start the connection.”
…
On the outskirts of Tokyo.
The Kazematsuri family’s convoy sped along the road. Cao Yuan rolled down the car window and glanced at the pitch-black night above, his brow slightly furrowing.
Have Qiye and the others already arrived…
“Can we go any faster?” Cao Yuan said to the driver in Japanese.
“Unfortunately, we can’t.” The Kazematsuri family’s driver replied helplessly. “It seems there was a large-scale battle up ahead, and the entire road is blocked; we can’t get through…”
Cao Yuan, holding his knife, hesitated for a moment before directly opening the door and stepping out of the car.
Seeing this, Yuzuna also opened the door and got out.
“Cao Yuan, do you know where Brother Qiye is?” she asked curiously.
Cao Yuan was taken aback.
He hesitated for a moment, just about to say something when the heavy clouds above [Pure Land] suddenly flashed with two knife lights, followed by a massive pattern formed by overlapping “×” and “●,” appearing before everyone’s eyes.
That is…
Cao Yuan’s expression suddenly became excited.
“There!” Cao Yuan pointed at the intersection of the two straight knife lights, speaking firmly, “I want to go directly above [Pure Land]!”
“That place…” Yuzuna nodded thoughtfully.
She extended her hand, grasping the handle of the [Thousand Cranes] knife at her waist, and said to Cao Yuan, “I can use paper cranes to turn into clouds and carry you over, but it can only hold one person… I might only be able to take you this far.”
“That’s enough!” Cao Yuan nodded firmly. “Thank you.”
“No need to thank me.” Yuzuna smiled slightly at Cao Yuan. “You… must win!”
The white long knife was drawn from its paper sheath, and countless paper cranes emerged around Yuzuna, surrounding Cao Yuan and lifting him off the ground, flying straight towards the silver disc in the sky!
…
In the park.
Shen Qingzhu saw the enormous pattern appearing in the sky, and his pupils suddenly constricted.
He abruptly stood up from the bench, staring intently in that direction, his gaze burning with intensity.
“Is it over there…” Shen Qingzhu furrowed his brow. “How do I get there…”
Just as Shen Qingzhu was in a dilemma, between heaven and earth, black and white energies suddenly flickered, and a plump figure stepped out of the void, appearing beside him.
“Zhuo Ge.”
The chubby figure looked at Shen Qingzhu and grinned, “Want a ride?”
