Slay the Gods: The spokesperson for Zhulong, starts with the God-killing Gun

Chapter 425 Susanoo (Page 12)

Shangjing City, Night Watch Headquarters.

Ye Fan stood in the strategic conference room, where a holographic projection displayed the energy distribution map of the global Red Moon anomaly.

"The source of the Red Moon catastrophe has not yet been found, but energy readings show that the power of the Red Moon is most concentrated in East Asia."

Lin Qiye frowned: "Japan?"

Ye Fan nodded: "According to intelligence, a 'Gate of Guidance' has appeared in Japan, which is suspected to be related to Takamagahara."

An Qingyu pushed up her glasses, the lenses reflecting a stream of data: "Takamagahara, a divine realm in Japanese mythology, is theoretically isolated from the real world."

Baili Pangpang, munching on a chicken leg, asked, "So...we're going to Japan to fight the gods?"

Shen Qingzhu sneered: "Scared?"

Baili Pangpang: "Who's scared! I just think... I should eat some sushi first to give myself courage!"

Everyone: "..."

Zhang Yun leaned against the wall and lazily asked, "When do we set off?"

Ye Fan: "Now."

Japan, the outskirts of Tokyo.

The Night Squad crossed the border shrouded in thick fog. The entire city seemed to be covered by a blood-red veil. The streets were deserted, with only the red moon hanging high, emitting an eerie light.

Baili Pangpang rubbed his arms: "This place... why is it even more eerie than last time?"

Shen Qingzhu pushed up her sunglasses: "Nonsense, how could it be normal with the red moon shining through?"

Anqingyu's detectors went into overdrive, warning: "The concentration of the Red Moon's power is 37 times that of Shangjing. Long-term exposure will lead to mental pollution."

Jiang Er's spirit trembled slightly: "The spirits here... have all been corrupted by the Red Moon."

Lin Qiye gripped the black box straight knife tightly: "Be careful."

Zhang Yun looked up at the sky and squinted: "The Gate of Guidance... is over there."

In the distance, a massive black door floats in the clouds, crimson light seeping from its cracks, as if connecting to another world.

The group arrived at the gate of guidance and looked up. The gate was a thousand meters high, its surface covered with ancient runes, and it exuded a suffocating pressure.

Baili Pangpang swallowed hard: "How do I open this thing?"

Zhang Yun raised his hand and placed it on the door, and the power of time surged: "A 'key' is needed."

Suddenly, the runes on the door lit up, and a deep voice came from inside:

"Mortals...those who trespass into the divine realm...die!"

"boom--!!!"

Suddenly, a huge, pale arm emerged from the crack in the door, its five fingers like knives, reaching straight for the crowd!

Baili Pangpang: "Holy crap! It's come back to life?!"

Shen Qingzhu's gravity field unfolded instantly, causing the pale arm's movements to pause slightly!

Lin Qiye drew his sword and slashed out, the power of the night transforming into a blade of light, slashing towards his arm!

"laugh--!!!"

A wound was slashed on his arm, and dark blood gushed out, but it healed quickly!

An Qingyu quickly analyzed: "The regenerative ability is extremely strong, and physical attacks are ineffective!"

Zhang Yun squinted his eyes: "Then... let's play something big."

He formed hand seals, and the power of time gathered wildly, condensing the phantom of the God-Slaying Spear in his palms!

"Time - Disruption!"

"Shua——!!!"

The spear thrust out, and the pale arm froze abruptly, then crumbled inch by inch!

"Roar--!!!"

An angry roar came from inside the gate, and the gate of guidance slowly opened, with crimson light surging out like a tide!

Baili Pangpang's eyes widened: "The door is open?!"

Zhang Yun grinned: "Let's go in and take a look."

...

As they passed through the Gate of Guidance and stepped into Takamagahara, a putrid, bloody stench assaulted their senses.

The sky was dark red, as if shrouded in a layer of blood mist, and the earth was cracked, with viscous black liquid seeping from countless dark fissures.

In the distance, the ruins of a dilapidated temple stood on the barren land, the walls covered with scarlet vines, the ends of which had fine, sharp teeth that wriggled like living creatures.

Baili Pangpang swallowed hard: "This place... is even scarier than hell?"

Shen Qingzhu pushed up her sunglasses and said coldly, "Nonsense, this is the tomb of the gods."

Anqingyu's detectors were alarming: "The concentration of the Red Moon's power in the air is 100 times that of the outside world. Long-term exposure will lead to mental breakdown."

Jiang Er's spirit trembled slightly: "The spirits here... are all corrupted."

Lin Qiye gripped the black box straight knife tightly, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings: "Be careful, don't get distracted."

Zhang Yun walked at the front, the tip of the God-Slaying Spear gleaming slightly. His gaze fell on a huge skeleton on the ground—the corpse of a god, its bones a strange dark red, its head pierced by some kind of sharp weapon, and a huge hole in its chest, as if its heart had been forcibly ripped out.

"These gods... were killed by their own kind."

The group continued along the ruins and soon discovered a fragmented mural on the wall of a half-collapsed temple.

The murals are already dilapidated, but several key scenes can still be vaguely discerned—

The first image depicts three deities standing atop Takamagahara. In the center is a person clad in a golden divine robe (Amaterasu Omikami), to the left is Tsukuyomi, shrouded in silver moonlight, and to the right is Susanoo, wielding a giant sword.

Second image: A crack appears in the sky, and a giant eyeball peers out from the void, its crimson light enveloping Takamagahara.

The third image shows Tsukuyomi's eyes turning blood red as she wields a scimitar and stabs at Amaterasu Omikami, while Susanoo roars and charges at Tsukuyomi.

The fourth image depicts Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi perishing together, while Susanoo, wielding the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi and the Yasakani no Magatama, stands alone amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

An Qingyu pushed up her glasses: "The projection of Cthulhu descended upon Takamagahara fifty years ago, corrupting Tsukuyomi and causing a civil war among the gods."

Baili Pangpang's eyes widened: "So... Tsukuyomi is a traitor?!"

Shen Qingzhu sneered: "Useless."

Lin Qiye frowned: "What about Susanoo? Is he still alive?"

Zhang Yun shook his head: "The mural ends here, but according to the energy readings, there are still life reactions deep within Takamagahara."

Deep within Takamagahara, the void trembled.

When the group stepped into these ruins of a divine realm, the sight before them caused everyone's pupils to shrink in shock—

The earth cracked and the sky was torn open with countless dark cracks as two enormous figures fought fiercely in the void!

On the left is a man wearing a tattered golden divine robe, holding a long sword burning with the true fire of the sun, surrounded by blazing flames—the Sun God Wu Xiangnan!

On the right is a berserk god shrouded in crimson aura, wielding the Kusanagi sword, with the Yasakani no Magatama flashing wildly at his waist, and his eyes bloodshot—Susanoo!

"boom--!!!"

The clash of their swords unleashed a terrifying shockwave that swept across the entire Takamagahara, cracking the ground and shattering the temple ruins into dust!

Baili Pangpang's eyes widened: "Holy crap! Old Wu?!"

Shen Qingzhu's sunglasses shattered completely, and she said coldly, "The Sun God... how could he be here?"

Anqingyu's detectors went into overdrive: "Energy readings have exceeded the limit! These two have surpassed 'Klein's' combat power!"

Jiang Er's spirit trembled slightly: "Susanoo... has been completely corrupted by the Crimson Moon!"

Lin Qiye gripped the black box straight knife tightly: "Prepare for support!"

Zhang Yun narrowed his eyes, the God-Slaying Spear coalescing in his palm: "Old Wu, hold on!"

Wu Xiangnan forced Susanoo back with a single sword strike, then turned to look at the crowd. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by a familiar smile: "You... have arrived?"

His voice remained gentle, but his face was pale, and a trace of golden divine blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that he had been fighting for a long time.

Baili Pangpang waved excitedly, "Old Wu! We'll help you beat him up!"

Wu Xiangnan shook his head: "Be careful... the Kusanagi sword in his hand can sever the laws!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Susanoo attacked again!

"Shua——!!!"

The Kusanagi Sword drew a dark slash, tearing the void apart, its blade aimed directly at Wu Xiangnan's throat!

"clang--!!!"

Wu Xiangnan parried with his Sun God Sword, but the sharpness of the Kusanagi Sword was too terrifying. The moment the blades met, the Sun God Sword was actually cleaved in two!

"puff--!"

Wu Xiangnan was blasted back hundreds of meters, spitting out a mouthful of divine blood!

Lin Qiye's pupils contracted: "Go!"

"boom--!!!"

Zhang Yun struck first, unleashing the power of time, and the God-Slaying Spear pierced Susanoo's back like lightning!

"laugh--!!!"

The spear pierced through the divine robe, but Susanoo's body vanished like a phantom, reappearing behind Zhang Yun the next second, and the Kusanagi Sword swept across!

"boom--!!!"

Zhang Yun was cleaved away by a sword, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on his chest!

Lin Qiye unleashed his Dark Domain, unleashing countless sword lights that slashed towards Susanoo, but with a single swing of the Ame-no-Murakumo sword, all the sword lights were instantly annihilated!

Shen Qingzhu's gravity field suppressed Susanoo's movements slightly, but the Yasakani no Magatama flashed and the gravity field was directly broken!

An Qingyu threw out an electromagnetic pulse bomb, but it was cut in half by the sword the moment it got close to Susanoo!

Baili Pangpang grabbed a frying pan and charged forward: "Take my 'Baili Divine Pan'!"

"clang--!!!"

With a gentle flick of the Kusanagi Sword, the frying pan shattered into pieces!

Baili Pangpang: "Holy crap! My fault!!!"

Garan thrust his spear toward Susanoo's throat, but Susanoo cleaved the spear tip in two with a backhand sword strike!

Cao Yuan slashed wildly with his black blade, but Susanoo didn't even glance at him. With a casual wave of his hand, Cao Yuan was sent flying!

Jiang Er's spirit released a mental shock, but Susanoo merely frowned, and the Yasakani no Magatama trembled, causing the mental shock to rebound!

"puff--!"

Jiang Er's spirit almost dissipated!

Wu Xiangnan gritted his teeth, and the Sun God Sword blazed once more: "You... step back!"

Susanoo wielded the Kusanagi sword, his body enveloped in a crimson aura, the Yasakani no Magatama flashing wildly, his eyes filled with madness and violence.

Wu Xiangnan imprisoned him with the True Fire of the Sun, but he himself vanished into flames, leaving only one sentence—

"Help me... destroy the Eight-Foot Jade Curved Jewel."

Zhang Yun's God-Slaying Spear pierced through the Magatama, and Susanoo's power began to collapse, but the god's dying counterattack was still terrifying!

"Mortals...you...will all die!!!"

Susanoo's Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi slashed fiercely at the crowd, the dark sword energy tearing through space and heading straight for Lin Qiye's throat!

At the critical moment——

“Buzz——!!!”

A dazzling magic circle unfolded in the void, with countless runes flowing around it, forcefully blocking this fatal blow!

"Click——!!!"

The magic circle shattered, but the sword energy was also neutralized.

Everyone turned around abruptly and saw a figure draped in a deep blue magic robe walking through the air, with long silver hair dancing in the wind, holding an ancient staff inlaid with gems in his hand, and eyes as sharp as an eagle's.

——Merlin!

Lin Qiye, the Grand Magician of the Gods Research Institute!

Baili Pangpang's eyes widened: "Merlin?! What are you doing here?!"
