Chapter 1286: The Regret of the Magic City, the Preciousness of Tengu as Research Material

Because all his conspiracy theories are based on the premise that there is no contract signed, but if the price is to sign a contract, it is difficult for him to imagine how the other party would break the contract to achieve their own goals.

Although the contract can be violated, that is based on the premise that one is unwilling to accept it from the beginning. However, if one chooses to accept the contract, even if the psychic who assists in signing the contract is not as powerful as the other two, it is impossible to break the contract.

If the other party is willing to accept the contract, then his surrender may not necessarily be the conspiracy he thought it was.

"Did the mutant say anything else?"

"Why did it become Li Chuan's Shikigami? And why did it come to China from the island country?"

Temporarily suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Liu Suifeng asked for more information.

It is impossible for that mutant creature to come to China from the island country for no reason, and it is even more impossible for it to want to become Li Chuan's Shikigami for no reason.

As a first-sequence mutant creature, since it knows about the contract, it must know the function of the contract power. It is a rule that binds both parties and cannot be violated.

Unless you can find a bug in the contract, but in this regard, no race knows where the traps in the text are better than humans.

They will not give mutant creatures so-called human rights or a fair and just contract.

The only ones who can find bugs in the contract are the humans who created the contract, not the mutant creatures who signed the agreement.

"Tengu!"

"It said it was a tengu from the island nation's mythology."

"The reason why it came to China from the island country is that it feels that there is something in China that attracts it, which can allow its bloodline to return to its ancestral roots and return to its original form in the Classic of Mountains and Seas."

The other party responded to Liu Suifeng's question on the phone, but
"Tengu? Return of ancestral bloodline? Classic of Mountains and Seas?"

Liu Suifeng was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly remembered that the island country seemed to have two special lives. Since the island country brought it up at the last meeting, they have paid special attention to it.

Because they are the first creatures in the world that truly came from myths and legends.

One is Shuten-doji and the other is Tengu, both are famous monsters in the legends of the island country.

Shuten-doji is also known as the Drunken Boy, the Sake-god Boy, the Red-dot Boy, etc. He is one of the three great evil monsters in the island country's legends. He is the leader of the monsters entrenched in Mount Oe (or Mount Ibuki). His residence is as luxurious as the Dragon Palace. He commands a large number of monsters and harms the human world from time to time.

Later, he was conquered by the Four Heavenly Kings led by Minamoto no Raikou, and was eventually killed by the famous sword "Yasutsuga" held by the Minamoto clan. This also became the origin of the legend of "Shuten-doji's Defeat".

Tengu is another powerful monster in the island country's legends. They are usually portrayed as monsters with red faces, high noses, eyes like copper bells, wearing armor, wearing wooden clogs and holding round fans, and with a pair of large wings on their backs.

According to legend, Tengu has powerful magical powers and can even appear as a "vengeful spirit". People possessed by Tengu will become sick. Tengu also often appears in various folk tales as a representative of evil forces.

This is the introduction of these two monsters in mythology and legends, but apart from the fact that they come from the special place of mythology, they are not special compared to those powerful mutant creatures.

The most obvious point is that their strength has not yet entered the first-sequence range. At least when the island country mentioned these two monsters at that time, they could not be counted as first-sequence.

The ones that descended were all monsters, and they were all monsters from the myths and legends of the island countries. This unusual coincidence made the other countries quite curious.

I don’t know whether they are special or the island country is special.

However, for the island countries, whether they are monsters from myths and legends, or mutated creatures that have evolved towards this form, their existence is not good news.

If possible, they would rather the gods and monsters in their own myths and legends not come into reality.

At least the traditional culture will definitely not come, and if it does come, it will have to be the various light novel versions that have been beautified by them.

That way, they'll be a little more receptive.

However, he never expected that when he came to China, the mutated creature that wanted to become Li Chuan's shikigami would turn out to be Tengu, one of the two monsters.

Especially the fact that it was attracted by something in China, which allowed its bloodline to return to its ancestral form and become its original form in "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

After so many years of borrowing and modifying, only a few similarities remain. In other aspects, including appearance, there are no similarities.

The key point is that this is clearly just a difference in myths and legends. How is it possible that after emerging from myths and becoming separate individuals, one's bloodline can be reverted to its ancestral lineage and transformed?

There is a connection between Chinese mythology and island mythology, right?
"So why did he suddenly say he wanted to become Li Chuan's shikigami?"

Liu Suifeng rubbed his head. He didn’t want to complain about the linkage or anything like that. The key point was that this guy actually had his own purpose. Why did he suddenly want to become Li Chuan’s Shikigami?

Want to use Li Chuan's power to help him find what he perceives?
What Liu Suifeng thought of might soon be confirmed by the voice on the other end of the phone, but the process was a little more complicated.

It was that Tengu who avoided those famous Chinese cities guarded by the First Sequence and found a small city, hoping to collect information there.

However, he did not expect that he would fall into a coma due to the forced breakthrough just after breaking through the forbidden air formation barrier, and fell from the sky in front of Li Chuan.

Li Chuan originally wanted to kill it and send its body to the research institute to make new gene enhancement drugs. However, when he put his hand on its neck, it suddenly woke up, and then told him the purpose of coming to China and expressed its desire to become Li Chuan's shikigami.

As a price, Li Chuan needs to help him find something that can help him return to his ancestral bloodline.

"."

After hearing the details, Liu Suifeng really didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was obvious that the Tengu had no intention of becoming a human Shikigami at first, or perhaps becoming a Shikigami was just a last resort for it.

That's why it avoided those cities that were well-known to be guarded by first-sequence-level psychics and chose a remote small town.

It was just bad luck for it, as the small town it chose happened to be the one guarded by Li Chuan. Moreover, due to the particularity of its own special abilities, the barrier of Yecheng's no-fly formation was thicker than those of other cities. This led to the result that it fell into a coma even though it just wanted to break through the barrier of the no-fly formation.

Then, after feeling the threat of death, he immediately stated his purpose with the most sincere attitude, raised his hands in surrender, and was willing to become Li Chuan's Shikigami.

"What does Li Chuan think?"

A first-sequence level combat capability is very important to China. Although it is a monster, if the other party is willing to cooperate, they have plenty of ways to make it keep its promise.

However, this still depends on Li Chuan’s own thoughts. After all, to some extent, the Tengu is Li Chuan’s prey.

"That's why I contacted you."

"Li Chuan hopes that you can send someone to take over the Tengu. He has no interest in taking it as a Shikigami."

"Besides, his current range of activities is limited. He cannot leave Yecheng, and there is no time to take him to find something that can transform his bloodline."

The director of Yecheng Spiritual Energy Bureau also felt a little regretful about this.

To be honest, although Yecheng is already safe enough with Li Chuan's protection, who wouldn't want to be even safer on this basis?

The imperial capital only has a few first-sequence ones? Cities like Hangzhou and Suzhou only have one first-sequence one.

They have two in Yecheng.

It would be so impressive if you could say this to others.

It's a pity that Li Chuan has no interest in it, and its range of activities is limited, so it is impossible to take it to find what it wants.

It can only be cheaper.

"No need to say anything, just send me the address."

"I'm sending someone to receive it now."

Hearing this, Liu Suifeng didn't say anything more. He immediately asked him to send him the location, and then he sent someone to bring the Tengu back.

A first-sequence-level combat capability, even if it is a mutant creature, as long as its safety and loyalty can be guaranteed, is no different to them than a real first-sequence-level mutant, and may even be more useful.

Because when it comes to contracts, the operational aspects of treating humans and monsters are definitely completely different.

Although this Tengu seemed to have just entered the first sequence level and was not very powerful, that was only compared with other first sequence beings. Compared with the lives below the first sequence, it was undoubtedly at a higher position.

And that’s just the way it is now.

If it is not lying, its strength and potential will be further enhanced after it obtains the thing that attracts it in the dark and can allow its bloodline to return to its ancestral home.

By that time, maybe you can be ranked in the middle or even higher among the first sequence.

But where should I place it at that time?

Magic City?
Thinking of the Magic City, Liu Suifeng couldn't help but feel regretful.

It's a pity for the little girl who awakened the first-sequence level animal power, the Eye of Medusa. At the beginning of her awakening, due to her age, her control over the power was too low, which resulted in her parents being petrified, causing her parents to be destroyed and unable to recover.

She was not the direct murderer of her parents, but she was indeed responsible for their death.

At least, in the little girl's mind, she was the murderer of the idiot's own parents.

So she blocked her heart and even developed a will to die, allowing Zhao Feng, who was obviously just an ordinary person, to find the opportunity to plunder his supernatural powers.

She did it on purpose, there was no doubt about that. A first-sequence level ability, especially a first-sequence level beast ability, even if she was just a child at the time, her physique was much stronger than Zhao Feng's when he was still an ordinary person.

Her perception of malice is also far clearer than that of humans.

So it was impossible for her not to notice Zhao Feng's actions, she just didn't resist.

Her death created a new First Order, but that First Order chose to stand against humanity.

That's why it's such a pity. Originally, demons could have two first-sequence-level psychics.

Being able to plunder a first-order level ability, even if the opponent does not resist, is enough to prove that Zhao Feng's plundering ability itself is not too low.

If it weren't for those encounters, Zhao Feng would not have chosen to stand against them, but instead reported his ability. There would have been two first-sequence-level psychics in the Magic City, and they might have been able to find a reason to transfer one over.

As a result, it cannot be adjusted now and I have to pay a loss.

I don’t know what they said to Xizhao, but they simply deceived Xizhao.

Liu Suifeng sighed.

Xi Zhao is the little boy who was given the Snow Mastiff Armor Summoning Device by Bai Di, and he is also the youngest summoner of the Five Elements Armor.

Their original plan was to train him well and add a strong fighting force to the Spiritual Qi Bureau and the future of China. As the National Spiritual Qi Bureau, the Imperial Capital Spiritual Qi Bureau must train such unripe geniuses in the Imperial Capital.

They don't restrict Xizhao's own choices. When he grows up, he can go to any city he wants. But if he wants to stay in the imperial capital where he grew up, that's understandable, right?

Who knows what Modu said to Xizhao, but he actually applied to his superiors to transfer Xizhao and his sister. Even his original relatives were not spared, and the whole family moved from the imperial capital to Modu.

However, although Xi Zhao is the summoner of the Snow Mastiff Armor, even though he is just a teenager, he can burst out power far beyond the first sequence after summoning the Snow Mastiff Armor, but he is still not considered to be the first sequence.

Although some excellent psychics have been trained, and we want to artificially train first-sequence psychics, it is not certain whether it can be done or not. Even if it is done, it will take a long time.

If they knew about Tengu, they would probably ask their superiors to transfer it over immediately.

Not only can it protect the city, but Tengu's identity as a "monster" may also be helpful to their research, killing two birds with one stone.

Well, I'm afraid it's not just Shanghai, other cities will be like this too, and the research institutes probably won't want to let it go either.

Even if it is taken away by the devil in the end, it will definitely be harvested regularly. Oh no, a batch of its body tissues will be collected and handed over to the research institute and those researchers who are interested in it for research.

After all, there are currently only two "lives that descended from mythology", Tengu and Shuten-doji, and both are from island countries, so there was no opportunity to study them before.

Although the key island countries have the advantage in strength over them, they cannot be caught if they want to escape; let alone asking them for some materials for research, they don’t even have them themselves.

I thought it would take a long time to carry out further research, but I didn’t expect Tengu to come to China from the island country.

There was no way they would let go of this opportunity that was so close.

"Myth"

"Although they had long anticipated the arrival of this day, will the existence in the myth really come to the world one day?"

"Will they really be like what is recorded in myths and legends?"
