Chapter 018: Hide

Although the karmic bond between the two had been severed, they still belonged to the same team. Wang Bo wasn't sure whether they would become entangled again in the future.

If this woman was ultimately drawn to Kei Kurono, what could Wang Bo do about it?

You can't buy someone's willingness with gold.

Meanwhile, the others in the black sphere room started arguing.

A monk had arrived in the black sphere room, claiming this was a paradise, a trial from the Buddha, and he completely dismissed Kato's words.

Aliens, missions—all nonsense.

This made Kato both angry and anxious; who knew why these people were so stubborn.

Just then, the black sphere finally issued a new mission.

A woman's photo appeared on the black sphere, labeled as a Fox Alien.

Seeing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but laugh, because he realized this Fox Alien was none other than the Hagoromo Kitsune he had been looking for.

It seemed his diary of foresight had indeed worked.

After issuing the mission, the black sphere teleported everyone out, regardless of their arguments.

Soon after, Wang Bo received a call from Kei Kishimoto. Answering, he asked, "Where are you now?"

He had just scanned the area and hadn't found the group in Tokyo.

Kishimoto said, "Lord Bo, we're near Heian Shrine in Kyoto."

Wang Bo was surprised; he hadn't expected the black sphere to send Kishimoto and the others to Kyoto. It seemed this was a joint operation. He had reason to believe that besides the Tokyo team, more teams had joined, given that the Hagoromo Kitsune was indeed very strong—not something one or two black sphere squads could handle.

"I see. Find a place to hide now, and don't show yourself. The target you're hunting this time is very strong; you're no match. So hide."

Hearing this, Kishimoto's heart skipped a beat, and she nodded instinctively. "Yes, I understand, Lord Bo."

After hanging up, Wang Bo straightened his clothes, took a step, and headed to Kyoto.

Teleporting to Kyoto, he appeared inside Heian Shrine.

The entire shrine complex included the Great Torii, Shrine Road, Otenmon Gate, Daigokuden Hall, and the Shin'en Garden. The presence of structures like Otenmon and Daigokuden was due to the profound influence of the Tang Dynasty's Luoyang Imperial Palace, Zichen Palace, giving it a distinct Tang Chinese architectural style.

Wang Bo appeared on the roof of Daigokuden, overlooking the entire shrine from above.

He could clearly see team after team being teleported outside the shrine, and among them, he even spotted many foreigners.

Wang Bo clicked his tongue in surprise. The appearance of foreigners meant this mission was no longer national but global.

The black sphere seemed to have contacted members from around the world to hunt the Hagoromo Kitsune.

But Wang Bo was curious: could these black sphere members really kill a great demon that had lived for centuries?

More and more teams gathered outside the shrine, and many realized this mission was no ordinary one.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have gathered so many teams.

Kei Kurono and the others were especially shocked, learning for the first time that the black sphere had so many teams besides their own, especially the burly foreigners with advanced equipment.

It was clear this wasn't their first clearance.

At the same time, a tall, blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner stood up and clapped his hands loudly, drawing everyone's attention.

"Everyone, please calm down. I have something to say. Please listen patiently."

He seemed to want to unite all the teams present, having realized that the black sphere's mass teleportation meant the target was incredibly powerful.

He shared his thoughts and called for unity.

"We must unite. Only by uniting can we defeat the enemy and—"

Thud!

Suddenly, a sound of a blade cutting through flesh rang out. The blond man's body remained still, but his head flew high, rolled a few times after landing, a smile of encouragement still frozen on his face.

Seconds later, blood gushed from his corpse, and his body fell to the ground with a thud.

He died without even knowing he was dead.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone present.

As one, they looked behind the man and saw a black-haired woman in a sailor uniform smiling at them, several tails waving behind her.

"I thought what disturbed my sleep was some earth-shattering big shot, but it's just you ants again."

Her smile instantly turned cold.

"The consequences of disturbing my sleep are severe."

Seeing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but smile.

The second transmigrator, the Hagoromo Kitsune, had finally appeared. And from her words, Wang Bo knew she must have dealt with black sphere members before, otherwise she wouldn't have said "you ants again."

Indeed, although the black sphere squads had enhanced suits, they were all ordinary people.

To the Hagoromo Kitsune, these people were indeed like ants, insignificant.

Presumably, the black sphere squads had suffered heavy losses, even total annihilation, when encountering the Hagoromo Kitsune, prompting the black sphere to summon teams worldwide to hunt her.

But compared to Wang Bo's excitement, the other side couldn't be excited.

The black sphere members were intimidated by the sudden appearance of the Hagoromo Kitsune. Her terrifying demonic aura spread freely, like an invisible giant hand gripping everyone's hearts.

For a moment, everyone present found it hard to breathe.

Some with weak spirits fainted on the spot.

Not everyone could stay calm under the demonic aura of a great demon like the Hagoromo Kitsune. Most people, facing her malicious smile, lost their composure and reason.

"No, don't come any closer! Aaaah!"

Some cowardly ones in the crowd, facing the malicious Hagoromo Kitsune, broke down and opened fire wildly.

In an instant, they hit countless black sphere members.

After a few seconds' delay, the heads of several unlucky ones exploded.

These people died without ever imagining they would be killed not by the target, but by their own comrades.

Seeing this, the Hagoromo Kitsune couldn't help but burst into laughter.

But in her heart, she felt a hint of surprise.
