The all-powerful middle schooler

"Leave it to me, something interesting might happen there."

A smile played on his lips as he spoke, and he darted to stand in front of Yurikawa Hana.

"Ah~!"

A finger touched the girl's forehead, and a strange memory flooded her mind, causing her to let out a groan.

"Sorry, we were in a rush this time, so the technique was a bit rough, but it will only cause a momentary dizziness..."

He loosened his fingers.

"Is Xiaohua alright?"

Yotsuya Miko immediately caught her best friend who was about to collapse.

"Yotsuya, since you have so many bonds, then make good use of them. I look forward to your growth... Also, this is for you."

The girl reached out and caught the "teru teru bozu" that had fallen out of nowhere, instantly understanding its purpose.

Then, under the watchful eyes of the two girls, he leaped up, stepped onto the water, and in a few quick movements, crossed to the other side until he disappeared from sight.

"Disappeared?"

Yuria opened her mouth wide, unable to close it for a long time.

"So the leader thinks highly of me?"

Yotsuya Miko was deeply moved and smiled.

……

Just a few minutes ago.

"I'm so sorry to trouble you again, Ms. Isayama! We've already gathered a group of people who can 'see,' but they're still not of any use."

“Miss Changpu, don’t expect me to be able to teach them. I’m just feeling my way across the river. If it weren’t for the Luan Honglian, I wouldn’t be able to use spiritual power.”

Isayama Yomi walked down the street, talking on her phone to her superior, Jinguji Ayame, the head of the Countermeasures Office.

During this period, the research lab has conducted some analysis on supernatural phenomena and powers, but its understanding of spiritual power is only basic.

Those who awaken powerful abilities wield spiritual power as easily as breathing.

However, some weaker awakened individuals, such as those with the most common psychic constitutions, like lower-level yin-yang eyes, cannot freely use their spiritual power and are not significantly different from ordinary people.

That's a real shame.

"I've arrived, I'm about to hang up."

"Huang Quan, be careful. This time it's not an evil spirit causing trouble. It's completely different from the evil spirits you encountered before."

"Well, I'll pay attention."

Isayama Yomi hung up the phone and looked at a detached house to the side. The sword at his waist emitted a faint hum, as if it were a warning of a dangerous figure.

"Miss Isayama!"

A man and a woman in suits jogged over from the side and explained the current situation to her.

“Over the past period, there have been more than ten deaths in this area. The victims all looked as if they had been eaten by some kind of animal. By reviewing the security camera footage, we finally identified the target. It wasn't an evil spirit, but a much rarer 'monster'—a fox…”

"After multiple confirmations, we know that the 'demon fox' that has been causing trouble in the area recently is hiding inside. However, according to our data analysis, it is extremely fast, and with our current reaction capabilities, it would be difficult to target. Therefore, we asked Ms. Isayama to come here this time, hoping that you can help restrain it..."

Upon hearing this, Isayama Yomi's usually calm and pretty face showed a hint of anger, and the veins on her forehead bulged out.

"I haven't slain a demon yet, have I? Ran Honglian."

She used her right thumb to pull the hilt forward, revealing the sharp blade, and asked herself a question with a cold look in her eyes.

I can even hold a 77mm bullet.

The street where the building is located has been firmly sealed off by ordinary government personnel, and residents who were originally staying nearby have also been evacuated.

Judging from the scene, passersby knew that this was clearly not an ordinary criminal case and that deadly weapons were likely involved, so no one stopped out of curiosity.

"Make sure civilians don't get through. We should try to keep the existence of those things out of the public eye. Also, be on the lookout for monsters that might come out at any time. Don't let your guard down!"

"Roger that!"

After the order was given via walkie-talkie, the personnel in the countermeasures room inside began preparing to break into the ordinary detached house in front of them.

"Should we storm in directly, or sneak in?"

Instead of acting impulsively out of anger, Yomi Isayama sought the opinions of others.

"That fox spirit entered here a day ago, and since then, the homeowner who lives alone has not come out again, so if nothing unexpected happens, the homeowner should be dead."

"It's me, Izumi Asami, a girl with short, brown hair who looks quite dashing," she said.

Another boy, Guan Shiche, narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's not alert them. If we can successfully launch a sneak attack, our chances of winning will be much higher."

"it is good."

Isayama Huangquan lightly touched his forehead.

The three of them walked quietly and slowly approached the gate.

Outside the building, there was another team of ordinary members, fully armed and carrying automatic rifles, waiting for their orders at any time.

"Click."

Guan Shiche took out his key and opened the door as quietly as possible.

Then, a foul, bloody stench wafted through the air, enough to make any ordinary person turn pale.

However, all three were well-trained and experienced in bloody battles, so they did not hesitate. They just frowned and slowly stepped in.

Upon entering the hall, the first thing they saw on the floor was the bloody mess. Some of the bloody fragments looked quite gruesome, clearly identifiable as coming from a part of the body.

Judging from the number, it doesn't seem to be one person.

Clearly, the fox spirit packed up some of the food and brought it back to share with itself.

The three of them could easily imagine the scene of slowly tearing flesh apart with it.

'Over here.'

Isayama Yomi quickly shifted her attention, her gaze sweeping across the ground at the footprints and bloodstains that resembled plum blossoms, leading all the way into a small room.

Clearly, that was where the fox spirit rested.

Kanze Toru and Izumi Asami exchanged a glance, their eyes resolute as they followed her footsteps inside.

Right at the corner, Isayama Yomi's right hand was already on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it. Then, he channeled his spiritual power into his legs, unleashing his maximum speed, and slashed in at an angle.

however……

Nothing at all?

A look of confusion flashed in her eyes.

"Wait! We've been discovered!"

She quickly realized this and exhaled 'Chaotic Red Lotus,' and a phantom-shaped spirit beast appeared beside her.

The reason she didn't immediately exhale "Luan Honglian" was because although ordinary people couldn't sense its existence, anyone with spiritual vision or a slightly stronger sense of perception could sense it.

Unsure if the fox spirit could sense her presence, she naturally had no intention of alerting it.

But given the current situation, it's clear that we can't afford to worry about that now.

"Luan Honglian, find the source of the demonic energy!"

Just as she gave the order, a beastly figure suddenly darted out from the shadows in the hall, moving with incredible speed, almost instantly leaping from the hall into the corridor.

When Izumi Asami and Kanze Tetsu saw that the room was empty, they also realized that they might be ambushed. They moved quickly, back to back, each facing one of the opposite directions.

It was precisely this action that saved their own lives.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

……

Kanze Tetsu's hand holding the gun steadily pulled the trigger, firing several shots forward. The flames from the gun briefly illuminated the image of the 'Fox Spirit'.

Its appearance was not as ferocious as one might imagine. Its fiery red fur was bright and glossy, its cheeks were lean and shrewd, and its body was elegant and agile. However, its cunning eyes concealed a chilling bloodthirsty ferocity.

When the bullets came, the fox seemed to realize the danger. It slowed down slightly, used all four legs to push off the wall, and then turned several times to avoid all the bullets.

'What an astonishing speed!'

Guan Shiche was shocked.

This is much higher than the data observed from the cameras.

Of course, this fox demon wasn't faster than a bullet; it simply shifted its position before the gun barrel could move.

A low, guttural 'whooshing' sound could be faintly heard in the air; this was usually the sound a fox made when it was attacking.

The two were already very close, and just as the fox demon was about to bite off his neck, a knife suddenly slashed vertically from the side.

"Shh!"

This strike was absolutely brilliant, perfectly timed to capitalize on the moment when the fox spirit was airborne and unable to evade the attack.

But then the fox demon spun lightly in the air, its bushy tail like an iron rod firmly blocking the attack, and used the momentum to retreat.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

"Guan Shi, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Be careful, it's going faster than we anticipated."

Izumi Asami turned around and saw the scene and her teammates sweating profusely. She asked them a question with concern.

“Cover me.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Isayama Yomi drew his treasured sword, Lion King, and gave chase.

The hall was somewhat empty, and even darker with the lights off.

"pat..."

"pat..."

As she stepped into the center, she felt a sense of threat coming from all directions.

At this point, she could only rely on the power of the Chaotic Red Lotus to discern the traces of demonic energy.

Then react to the opponent's attack.

"call out!"

The beast's shadow pierced the air, its sharp claws and teeth carrying a strong, pungent smell of blood.

Isayama Yomi blocked with his sword, barely managing to take the hit.

"Keng!"

A sound like metal clashing echoed continuously in the darkness.

Two figures, one tall and one short, kept crossing back and forth.

"Wow, so fast! I can't even see it!"

"What can we do? We can't help at all!"

Standing at the entrance of the corridor, the two men turned on the lights and kept their eyes fixed on the battle situation inside, intending to fire in support, but they hesitated to pull the trigger.

They couldn't guarantee who would be hit next.

Those outside the arena couldn't discern the situation, but those inside knew perfectly well.

'It's much faster than me!'

Isayama Yomi gritted her teeth, barely managing to hold on and desperately resist the attacks, with no room for retaliation.

They didn't even have a chance to display their own sword techniques!

'No, I need to reach my limit sooner.'

The girl had already assessed her own enhanced state; it would only take a few minutes to exhaust herself in a high-intensity battle.
