Chapter 748: All 【Evil】

【渡厄】, the incarnation of calamity.
Anything struck by the blade's edge would be entangled by misfortune, becoming profoundly unlucky.
And now, what it had struck was the divine symbol of authority for the entire Japanese "Human Enclosure," the supremely sacred place of life's origin—【净土】.

In this moment, 【净土】 was like an earthquake, frantically tearing and distorting. With An Qingyu having shut down the automatic defense system, 【净土】 had no way to resist the calamity power within this blade. Without any external force, it would collapse on its own.

This would, of course, require time...

But that was assuming the second Magatsu Blade wasn't used.

On the surface of Lin Qiye's left hand, 【Black Rope】, a beam of ink-black light swept across.

Under the night sky, an enormous blade projection materialized, carrying terrifying power, and suddenly stabbed toward the center of the silver flying disc suspended in the heavens!

Under the effect of the calamity power, where the blade touched 【净土】's surface, it was like cutting into tofu—effortlessly sinking in and piercing through the entire 【净土】 from the center!

Without 【渡厄】's calamity power, the best Lin Qiye could have achieved with this strike would have been like what Yuzuri Kurotetsu had done before—cutting off a corner of 【净土】. But with the calamity power, 【净土】 had become so fragile that any external force could destroy it directly.

And 【Black Rope】 undoubtedly possessed such terrifying destructive power.

One strike, piercing through 【净土】!

Lin Qiye did not stop there. Gripping the hilt of 【Black Rope】, he forcefully swung downward!

The blade projection that had pierced through the entire 【净土】, following Lin Qiye's motion, directly tore open the silver flying disc. Explosions and flames erupted at the point of the blade's cut. Amid the deafening roar, 【净土】 was being sliced in half by this single strike!

The fragments of 【净土】 that fell transformed into balls of fire, crashing down toward the neon city below like meteors!

"You dare?!!"

The black-robed Hell Calamity saw that Lin Qiye had already destroyed half of 【净土】, nearly roaring as he spoke, his eyes bloodshot!

To them, 【净土】 was their company's crowning achievement, the foundation that allowed them to become Oracle Envoys, and the supreme weapon used to intimidate the entire "Human Enclosure."

What Lin Qiye was doing was no less than cutting at the lives of the Oracle Envoys themselves!

Beside him, War Calamity's eyes were cold to the bone.

"'Capable of causing extremely large-scale casualties,' 'shaking the foundations of society,' 'challenging divine authority'... Your 'evil' is beyond redemption, unforgivable!!"

Lin Qiye couldn't help but laugh at these words.

"Evil?

Perhaps in the eyes of the common people, that is indeed the case.

But if creatures like you can be called 'good,' then we'd rather be the 'evil' that rises to match.

This nation has rotted through. The people here are beyond salvation. We don't care about their opinions.

We will stand at the very front of a thousand accusations,

Laughing, grinning savagely,

Tearing apart your pseudo-noble disguises.

【Evil Unpardonable】... so what?!"

As his voice fell, Lin Qiye turned to look at the ghost girl in the white dress beside him and laughed loudly:

"Jiang Er!"

"Here!"

"Show these ignorant country bumpkins what a real... 【Evil】 looks like!"

"Got it!"

Jiang Er drifted in the air, gently raising both hands. A mysterious magnetic field connected to all electronic devices in the surroundings, spreading wildly through wireless communication!

*Snap—!*

Within 【净土】 beneath their feet, the equipment powering the nation's electricity suddenly sparked with blinding light. Disturbed by the magnetic field, all lighting systems shut down with precision.

Street lamps, the flickering neon signs outside shops, the screens on skyscrapers, the countless lights in buildings...

All went dark simultaneously.

All of Japan had its electrical supply cut off.

Tokyo City, already shrouded in night, completely fell into absolute darkness after losing electronic illumination.

In the darkness, countless terrified screams echoed through the sky.

At that moment, the large electronic screens originally used to broadcast the god-defying battle, along with all televisions, computers, and mobile devices, their screens all switched simultaneously!

Black screens suddenly flickered with terrifying red light!

Blood-red wanted posters appeared on every screen!

There were seven in total.

One was a man wearing a Sun Wukong mask, draped in a black windbreaker, with five Magatsu Blades hanging from his waist, his eyes burning like torches as he gazed down at all living beings like a king amid the rain;

One was a fat man wearing a Zhu Bajie mask, standing on a black-and-white Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams diagram, hands clasped behind his back, with numerous treasures suspended around him, his back to an endless tide of gun barrels and artillery;

One was a man wearing a Sand Monk mask, surrounded by pitch-black malevolent flames, a Straight Blade in his right hand, his scarlet eyes terrifying—simply one glance was enough to freeze with fear;

One was a young woman wearing a Red Boy mask, her deep blue robe billowing in the fierce wind, a golden spear in her hand, standing as solid as a rock under the night sky;

One was a delicate youth wearing a Tang Monk mask, carrying a black coffin on his back, faint gray light in his eyes—appearing completely harmless, yet somehow, looking into those eyes made one's nape go cold;

One was a man draped in flowing cloud robes, two rings on his right hand, eyes slightly narrowed, his face wearing an alluring white fox mask that seemed both to weep and to laugh;

And one was a ghost girl floating in mid-air, wearing a faceless mask, both hands gently raised as if controlling something—inexpressibly eerie.

Bright red warning tape encircled their photos, flashing continuously. The harsh characters "CRIMINAL" filled the tape, branding them with glaring labels. Above each wanted poster, two grotesquely bold crimson characters were written!

—【极恶】!

No bounty amount, no descriptions. On these wanted posters, there wasn't even a name.

They didn't need names.

They were simply the incarnation of evil.

In the pitch-black city, only these seven bright red wanted posters scrolled across countless electronic screens.

Silence, deathly stillness, and诡异.

Under the torrential rain, even the streams of rainwater flowing through the streets were dyed crimson by the scarlet glow of the wanted posters...

In Tokyo City, everyone hid inside their homes, watching this city bathed in blood-red wanted posters, trembling uncontrollably...

This scene, these seven wanted posters, were destined to be seared deeply into the hearts of every Tokyo citizen.

After the seven wanted posters scrolled for a long while, all the screens fell dark once more.

Then,

In the dead, dark city,

On those screens,

Two blood-red Chinese characters slowly faded in.

—【夜幕】.

All 【Evil】.
