Chapter 1822 The unwillingness and desperate efforts of the invincible man!
【boom! 】
The 31-year-old bearded Togo Takeshi.
He walked out of the bathroom with a numb face.
I closed the door to block out the smell of shit inside.
In the short few meters he walked toward the sofa, he first kicked away two beer cans and then stepped over a black garbage bag containing a tube of instant noodles.
This is already very little.
In the past, I rarely turned on the lights to save electricity, and the floor was full of garbage, so I encountered various obstacles every time I moved.
"call--"
Sitting on the shabby sofa and watching the still playing TV screen, an impatient expression appeared on Togo Takeshi's face.
"Damn it, it's haunted, it's haunted, when will it end? If I can't go to work, what am I going to eat and drink?!"
It turns out that the Japanese government has issued a martial law order since the day before yesterday, prohibiting people from taking to the streets without permission until the "ghost disaster" is quelled and the problem of the world government is resolved.
But for someone like him who works in the kitchen of a restaurant and is paid by the hour.
One day less of work means zero income, negative expenditure, and not much savings.
Now I can feel the pressure even when I sleep.
Fortunately, if he eats well, the whole family will not be hungry.
He doesn't need to take care of a wife and children, he doesn't have parents to support him, and he doesn't even have friends to associate with.
After work every day, I go home to watch anime, play games, and eat instant noodles or bento.
He is free of worries and is truly invincible!
"Really? What kind of ghost is this? Don't let me encounter it, or I'll let you see the power of Spider Cut."
Togo Takeshi glanced at the samurai sword hung on the wall and sneered.
That was the physical prop surrounding anime that he gritted his teeth and spent 300,000 yen to buy.
You have to know that he can only earn 170,000 or 180,000 yuan after working hard for a month.
In the anime, 'Spider Cut' not only has the power to kill demons and monsters.
You can also summon spider spirits in the form of monks or wizards to assist or possess them.
At this moment, the knife gave him a great sense of psychological security.
In Togo Takeshi's opinion, this knife can definitely protect the house from evil spirits!
So he is not afraid! Not afraid! Not afraid!
"It's only eight o'clock. Let's play some games before the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons."
The man looked at the wall clock left by the tenant in front of him, then stood up and prepared to start the host under the TV.
But he suddenly heard the sound of running water, as if it came from the bathroom.
"Strange, the faucet is not turned off?"
"No, I don't have the habit of washing my hands after using the toilet."
Togo Takeshi stopped walking forward.
He felt that something was fishy and at the same time he felt uneasy.
Thinking of the 'ghost disaster' happening outside, I was suddenly shocked.
My heart beat rapidly, fear surged into my brain, and tension made my muscles stiffen.
And when Togo Takeshi saw water spreading out from the gap in the bathroom door.
The pupils suddenly contracted.
The next second, driven by the desire to survive, he hurried to the wall and took the gorgeous 'Spider Cut' in his hand.
"Come on, I'm not afraid of you!"
"I have nothing but I am invincible!"
The peripheral props in his hands seemed to really give Togo Takeshi courage.
Or maybe his identity as the 'invincible man' made him have nothing to worry about.
That’s right, if you are not afraid of being poor, what can ghosts do to you?
Maybe after I die I can turn into a poor ghost and possess the rich.
Let them go bankrupt!
A mess of thoughts were already popping up in Togo Takeshi's mind.
By this time the water had spread to his bare feet.
But the strange thing was that the water did not flow out of the house, but instead flowed up little by little along his heels.
It seems that the sealing of this room and bathroom is so perfect.
If this continues, it won't be long before Togo Takeshi will be drowned.
The process of death slowly approaching gave him a huge sense of oppression and fear.
He picked up the Spider Cutter and tried to open the door and rush out.
Without any surprises, the door would definitely not be opened.
"No more hesitation, damn water ghost, witness the power of 'Spider Cut'!"
Togo Takeshi was completely hysterical, roaring with red eyes, while posing the classic pose of the protagonist in the anime.
"Kneemaru. Conviction!!!"
This is a desperate counterattack by an "invincible man" and a "middle school patient".
He wants to prove it.
Even if I have accomplished nothing, am a waste, a pauper, and am destined to have no descendants.
But he also has the courage to swing a knife at ghosts.
Damn it, who wants to accomplish nothing, who wants to be a waste!
With tears in his eyes and a roar in his heart, Togo Takeshi thrust the blade fiercely into the waist-deep water.
Mom, I'm sorry I didn't become the son you were proud of.
【puff! 】
"ah------"
In an instant.
In the house filled with the sound of splashing water, a shrill scream suddenly rang out.
Then, a terrifying female ghost made of a stream of water appeared in the water that had already submerged the sofa.
"You actually have spiritual power!"
"What."
On the other side, Togo Takeshi, who was in tears, was stunned when he saw the Spider Cut which was half submerged in water and half emitting white light.
To be honest, even though he was shouting, he knew in his heart that the knife was fake.
But now this situation seems to be real?
No, from what this water ghost said, the key seems not to be the knife, but himself?
Eh!
What’s going on? Why is the light on the knife disappearing?
Togo Takeshi was stunned. The hope that had just risen was shattered in the blink of an eye.
"It looks like he has just awakened. Haha, good luck. I also have a chance to taste what it's like to be a psychic~"
The water ghost was so ecstatic that he forgot all the pain he had suffered before.
He immediately controlled the surrounding water flow to wrap up Togo Takeshi.
It didn't want to play the torture game anymore, but wanted to make him unconscious immediately and then slowly taste his internal organs.
“Woo—woo—woo—”
Togo Takeshi, who was holding the Spider Cut in his right hand, was completely desperate.
"Oh God, why do you do this to me?"
"I finally discovered my talent but now I have to die!"
"Are we little people destined to never stand up again?"
Just when Togo Tsuyoshi's resentment was gradually turning into hatred.
【boom! 】
The blocked door behind him was suddenly exploded by raging flames.
The powerful impact not only dispersed the water ball, but also poured all the sewage accumulated in the house into the corridor outside.
"Target spotted! Free shooting!"
These were the first words that Togo Takeshi heard as he fell to the ground and coughed hard.
Then the ears were filled with dense gunfire.
He felt deafening and subconsciously covered his ears.
But his eyes were fixed on the water ghost, watching it being torn into pieces by the golden beams.
"Ahhhh!"
"no, do not want!"
"Why can human guns hurt me?"
The screams stopped and the gunshots also ceased.
But Togo Tsuyoshi could hear more gunfire and even explosions outside.
The area seemed to have turned into a battlefield.
"The target has been confirmed and eliminated. A civilian victim has been successfully rescued. Please provide further instructions."
"Ok."
Togo Takeshi looked at the four fully armed blue-clad soldiers wearing tactical goggles with a dull look on his face.
"You guys are."
"We are the Astra Militarum, a member of the World Government. Please bring the necessary items with you and move with us to the temporary safe zone."
The squad leader who was in contact with the command center lowered his head and said.
"Also, the second special energy fluctuation that just appeared in this room, Yuri analyzed it as spiritual power, the source should be you, right?"
"Uh yeah, but I'm sorry, I don't know exactly what's going on."
Togo Takeshi, who was soaking wet, stood up and explained awkwardly.
"It's okay. The Onmyoji people will come to you to find out when the time comes. Let's go."
The other party didn't make things difficult for him, or rather, they weren't really interested.
They are busy now.
The 'ghost disaster' determined by the Alien Strategy Committee is no joke.
At present, various units of the Scorpio Star Army Group have suffered a lot of casualties.
There's nothing we can do about it, it's just ghosts.
With the blessing of fear and imagination of billions of people.
All the methods are too strange and dangerous.
This is also the reason why the Onmyoji Bureau, which was established not long ago, was called upon to help.
