Man at the top of the food chain

Volume 5: Burning Earth Chapter 49: World-Class Crisis (3)

Late at night, on a small road in the suburbs of Kyoto. Takeuchi Aota was walking alone towards home.

Tonight was his last day in Kyoto, and he had already bought a ticket for the 10 o'clock train in the evening.

Thinking about his ambitions when he first came to Kyoto when he was young, and then he encountered obstacles everywhere in reality, and a series of bizarre encounters recently, his mental state was very bad. He walked towards the rented house in a listless manner.

But when Takeuchi Aota turned a corner, he suddenly saw the back of a woman in white under the dim street lights. Originally, there was nothing strange, but less than a few seconds after Takeuchi Aota saw the woman, the woman in white suddenly disappeared.

The woman took a step to the side like an ordinary person, but this step was like going to another world, and disappeared directly from Takeuchi Aota's eyes.

Cold sweat covered Takeuchi Aota's back in an instant, and he suddenly rushed over to the place where the woman in white had just fought.

'Damn, has she appeared again? 'Thinking here, Takeuchi Aota looked around, as if trying to find the trace of the woman in white. Suddenly, a white figure appeared in the corner of his eyes, and the other party had disappeared at the corner of an alley.

'There! '

'Don't be in trouble! '

Takeuchi Aota quickly ran to the corner of the alley, but when he got there, he opened his eyes wide and was surprised. Because the alley in front of him was a dead end, and there was no one in it.

'What's going on? I clearly saw that she came in here? '

Just as Takeuchi Aota looked around, looking for the trace of the woman, a hand patted his shoulder. A woman's voice sounded from behind him: "What are you doing?"

The voice scared Takeuchi Aota, and he turned around suddenly, and saw a girl in white standing behind him. The girl had long brown hair tied in a ponytail. The unique gray pupils, coupled with the tall nose bridge, formed a mysterious and charming face.

'Is it a foreigner? ’

The rare beauty made Takeuchi Aota a little embarrassed for a moment, and he slowly said: "Are you okay? Are you injured?"

Takeuchi Aota was too shy to notice that when he turned around, the ponytail girl showed a hint of surprise on her face, and her eyes were fixed on his chest.

The girl took the initiative to introduce: "Hello, my name is Emma. What's your name?"

"My name is Takeuchi Aota." Takeuchi Aota smiled awkwardly: "It's not safe here recently. You are a girl so late, you should go home quickly."

"Really?" Emma did not comment, but she was confused. According to the calculation of the technical department, this place in front of her. It is the location where the investigators of Daxia Longque in Kyoto lost contact last, but so far, she, Hansen, and Pink have checked everywhere and found no problems.

But just now, the Dongyang man in front of her brought her an unexpected clue. There was a line of handwriting composed of mind energy on the chest of the man's coat. A message that can only be seen by people with abilities.

'Is this... written by Yan Bei? All of them are the codes of the Great Xia Dragon Bird. It takes some time to decipher them. 'Emma stared at the man's chest and memorized all the codes written on his chest with his mind.

But Emma stared at him for too long. Even Takeuchi Aota found something wrong. He looked down at his coat, patted it with his hands, and said embarrassedly: "I have worn this coat for almost a week. It's a little dirty, sorry."

But just after Takeuchi Aota said this, Emma grabbed his palm and said coldly: "Don't move." Then she covered his chest with her hand.

Takeuchi Aota naturally didn't know that the other party was wiping out the words on his chest. In his opinion, the exotic beauty in front of him suddenly began to touch his chest.

'No... No way. '

'Is it because God sees that I am so unlucky that he can't stand it anymore. '

'What if he wants to leave with me later? '

'Damn it. I don't have money to rent a room. If I take her back to the rental house, will she dislike it? '

Just as Takeuchi Aota's face turned red and his mind was full of random thoughts, Emma's palm had left his chest. She took out a mobile phone from her arms and asked, "What's your phone number?"

Takeuchi Aota was so nervous that he reported a series of numbers. After Emma pressed a few times, the phone rang in Takeuchi Aota's trouser pocket.

Emma said lightly: "This is my phone number. If you encounter anything special, call me on this number."

Takeuchi Aota took out his mobile phone and operated it, saying: "Okay...Okay, what do you mean by special things?" Halfway through his words, when Takeuchi Aota raised his head, the girl with a ponytail had disappeared.

A gust of cold wind blew, making Takeuchi Aota shiver.

'Could it be that I met a ghost? 'But he looked at the phone number displayed on the phone, which was so real that he became uncertain.

In this state of anxiety, Takeuchi Aita has returned to his small home in Kyoto. It is a single room of less than ten square meters. The housing prices in Kyoto are too expensive. Even in a place close to the suburbs, Takeuchi Aita's income can only afford to rent a ten-square-meter apartment.

Although the space is small, it has everything. The small single room is not only equipped with air conditioning, refrigerator, gas stove, but also a toilet and shower separated by plastic boards.

But tonight, all the things in the room have been packed up, leaving only a few boxes at the door.

Looking at the room where he had spent a year, thinking about the hard work and efforts of the year, Takeuchi Qingta sighed softly: "Is it time to leave after all?"

Shaking his head, Takeuchi Qingta seemed to throw away the hesitation in his heart, picked up the suitcase and walked out the door. After taking a last look at the room where he had lived for a year, he closed the door and left without looking back.

It was already eleven o'clock in the evening. On the small road in the suburbs, only Takeuchi Qingta was walking under the dim street lights, and he couldn't help but think of the girl in white who had just appeared.

He hesitated in his heart: 'Should I call her now?

But she asked me to call her when I have something special. Will calling her now make her angry? '

Just when Takeuchi Qingta was thinking about it, he didn't notice that the mobile phone in his trouser pocket was constantly vibrating, and unknowingly, he seemed to be walking further and further away from the originally bright street. I don't know why the street lights are broken today. In the dim light, everything seems a little unreal.

A whoosh sounded suddenly.

Before Takeuchi Aota could react, a loud shout came from behind him.

"Be careful!"

An arm grabbed his arm, and an unimaginable force dragged him forward. Then a black light flashed. When Takeuchi Aota reacted, he found that he had come to a position hundreds of meters away.

He looked at his side in shock. The foreign girl Emma was holding his arm at this moment, looking at the position just now with a vigilant face.

Takeuchi Aota looked in the direction of her gaze. He saw a man standing where he had just stood. The man was wearing a black tights, a mask on his head, and holding a metal dagger in his hand, just like a legendary ninja.

Unlike Takeuchi Aota, who was confused, Emma was on high alert against men.

Just now, she wrote down the code left by Yan Bei and rushed back to meet Hansen and Pink, and then decoded it. Because she originally thought that this was left by Yan Bei on the nearby residents as a clue.

But after decoding, she only got four words. That is the "Eternal Life Potion". The line of mental code on Takeuchi Qingta's body is just these four clueless words.

In doubt, Emma thought about it and decided to go to Takeuchi Qingta. But no one answered the phone, Emma could only release her mental energy to scan. Fortunately, Takeuchi Qingta did not go far, but when she found him, she saw a man dressed like a killer attacking Takeuchi Qingta from behind. At the critical moment, she used space teleportation to save Takeuchi Qingta.

The masked man sneered, but didn't say much. The next second. He had disappeared from Emma's sight.

"Invisible?" Just as Emma was thinking this, a shocking hostility came from behind her head. When she turned around, the tip of the metal dagger was less than half a meter away from her.

At the critical moment, a dark circular portal opened in front of the dagger, and another circular portal appeared behind the black-clad man's head. When he thrust the whole dagger forward, the dagger went straight through the portal and stabbed at the back of his head.

Another series of sneers came out of the black-clad man's mouth, and he disappeared and reappeared again.

The same angle, the same dagger, but this time the target was Emma's vest.

Watching the black-clad man attack twice strangely, Emma's heart flashed with a name famous in the Western Continent.

'Samael. '

'Tyrell's national ability organization, one of the five-level ability users of the Annihilation Abyss, nicknamed the Void Walker. '

'Known as one of the most difficult ability users in the world to kill. '

'Ability... teleportation. '

A series of information rang in Emma's mind, but she had no time to think about why two five-level ability users appeared in the suburbs of Kyoto at the same time.

Facing the opponent's strange attack, she took Takeuchi Aota and took a step forward. In the flash of black light, the two disappeared from the spot.

With a bang, Takeuchi Aota's suitcase was only halfway in when it was scratched by the metal dagger and turned into countless fragments.

Looking at the empty street, the man in black sneered again and said the first sentence since he appeared: "Can you escape?"

...

When Emma's investigation in Kyoto gradually deepened, Li Anping was attending a meeting in Tianjing. The content of the meeting was related to the marriage plan he had proposed before.

He sat at the main seat of the conference table with a booklet in his hand. On his left hand side were the current patriarchs of the nine royal families. On his right hand side were the leaders of the Great Xia Dragon Bird headed by Liu Sheng and Liu Feng.

In the families of ordinary people, marriage is a big deal. What's more, it is Li Anping, the uncrowned king of Great Xia. His marriage problem is related to the rise and fall of the entire Great Xia and even the entire East Continent.

But no one could force him to choose, everything depended on Li Anping's own will. So in the booklet in his hand, he listed all the backup candidates that the nine royal families and Daxia Longque thought were no problem, so that Li Anping could use them as a reference.
