Chapter 548 - The Siege and Pursuit

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

These specially-created spirits were the strongest among the tens of thousands of spirits in the Spirits Army. Each of them had the ability to fight against a modern army.

That day Momo had gathered these special spirits to defeat the two Chinese guys in a single blow, as well as recapture Matsuo.

One apostle spirit asked, “Lord Momo, are those two Chinese guys really that special? Do we really we need to mobilise all our forces?”

“Yeah, given our current strength, wouldn’t this be equivalent to fighting the Special Higher Police?”

“As the saying goes, a lion uses all its strength even when catching a rabbit,” Momo replied. “These two Chinese guys can kill hundreds of spirit soldiers in an instant. We should not underestimate their abilities. Furthermore, we are the rivals of the Special Police now. I do not want to contract any unnecessary losses.”

In fact, this was a unique characteristic of the Spirit Army. Only they could command such a great amount of flexibility and servitude from their members. They could gather hundreds of thousands of spirit soldiers for a siege without raising alarm.

It was an advantage Momo had to use.

As she watched the numbers of her Spirit Army gradually grow past 50 000, Momo smiled with satisfaction and commanded with a wave of her hand, “Catch them.”

At the same time, Bai Quan, who was lying on the hotel bed and practicing his virgin boy power, suddenly raised his head and looked towards the ceiling. Right at this instance, his superpower intuition sensed an intense stream of hostility charging towards them at full force.

Sensing the intense hostility that was approaching, Bai Quan stood up from his bed. He squinted his eyes as if he could see the whole Spirit Army through the walls of the hotel.

He was only heard saying, “Cannon, Matsuo, come quick.”

Cannon: “Meow meow!”

Matsuo thought he was acting weirdly, “What’s up?”

Bai Quan said hastily, “I sense that something is wrong, I think someone is trying to attack us. Matsuo, you better transform and hide in my mouth for now.” As he said that, he had already caught Cannon in his arms and hugged him tightly.

Matsuo was startled by his words and disappeared into a puff of smoke with a “Whoosh!”, entering Bai Quan’s mouth.

With both man and cat safe under his protection, Bai Quan walked right out of the hotel room. When he reached the side of the windows he took a few steps and leapt out.

“AHHHH!!!!” An ear-splitting shriek escaped from Cannon’s mouth as his heart screamed, “Has this guy gone crazy? Gone, I’m gone. I can’t believe that I, the great Cannon, have lived to die in the hands of this idiot.”

Just as Cannon thought this, Bai Quan flipped and landed on the roof of the opposite building. Cannon was so scared that his face was turning green.

For Bai Quan, this was nothing. It was just like jumping over a small drain to him. He turned around and glanced up at the sky above the hotel. He saw the storm of spirit soldiers diving down at full speed, like a massive frenzied black wave engulfing the skies, causing many passersbys to exclaim in shock.

Terrified, Matsuo screamed, “It’s the Spirit Army! They came! They really came!”

Bai Quan frowned and did not seem frightened by the sight of the hundreds of thousands of spirit soldiers. His current combat power was still above that of the Butcher. With the addition of the Divine Chastity power, he definitely had no reason to be afraid of these spirits.

He shouted across to the spirit soldiers, “Hey, there are too many people here. Let’s go somewhere else.”

As he spoke, he turned to run and sprang across a few buildings, rushing towards the outskirts of Tokyo.

“Follow me if you want to fight.”

Seeing that Bai Quan had escaped, the Spirit Army bellowed and charged after them. A few apostle spirits came over and reported to Momo, “He is alone. Matsuo seems to be in his mouth. The other Chinese guy is missing.”

With a glint in her eyes, Momo said, “Catch up with him.” At the same time, she thought to herself, “The cat that he was holding in his arms, is that Cannon? He’s actually still alive?”

One of her subordinates said, “That Chinese guy is really fast, it will take some time to catch up with him. If we charge at him with full force, it will definitely attract the attention of the government.”

“Don’t worry,” Momo answered cooly, “Catch up with them and capture them. It won’t take a lot of time.”

Hundreds of thousands of spirits pursued Bai Quan as he headed towards the outskirts of Tokyo.

As Bai Quan jumped over buildings, cars, and bridges while being pursued by the spirit soldiers, Cannon was shrieking in his arms the whole time.

Suddenly, Bai Quan stopped at the beach. Cannon immediately screamed at him, “What are you stopping for? Hurry up and run! Their numbers are crazy. Even the virgin boy power can’t stop them.”

Bai Quan smiled and put Cannon down, patting his head and said, “You just stay here and don’t move or else I won’t be able to protect you later.”

Matsuo, who was in Bai Quan’s mouth, tried to persuade him as well, “Bai Quan, are you out of strength? Quick, call Zhao Yao! Only he can save us now.”

Matsuo had been observing the way Bai Quan took care of Zhao Yao’s supercats. He saw him as a cheerful young man with a decent physique. Pursued by hundreds of thousands of spirit soldiers, the only solution Matuso could think of was to rely on Zhao Yao to save them.

“Even if Zhao Yao can’t beat the Spirit Army, at least he can create a dimension doorway for us to escape.”

Bai Quan nodded his head at Matsuo’s words, “Yeah, I have already sent our location to Boss, but he’s a little far from where we are now. I’m afraid he will not be able to come in time.”

In the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with the spirits. More and more appeared on the beach around him, above his head, and below his feet. Bai Quan was completely surrounded by the spirits now.

There was no way out.

Seeing this, Matsuo completely gave up hope. Especially when he saw some familiar faces of apostle spirits among the Spirit Army. They rekindled terror he had thought long gone.

It was not that he was a coward. It was more that he knew the destructive potential of the Spirit Army very well. Precisely because he knew their powers, high level of cooperation and experience, he understood the hopelessness of this situation better than anyone else.

He also knew Cannon’s, Bai Quan’s and his own capabilities. In his eyes, there was no way out.

“Even Zhao Yao who defeated me can only flee in this situation.” Matsuo sighed deeply, “Indeed, we won’t be able to wait till Zhao Yao comes. This is at least more than half of the whole Spirit Army. I’m afraid we can’t even hold out for more than a half a minute.”

He had already come out of Bai Quan’s mouth and spoke as if he were staring death directly in its eyes, “Since we have come to this, we shall fight together to the end.”

Hearing Matsuo’s words, Bai Quan was exasperated, “You’re mistaken.”

Matsuo: “What?”

Bai Quan looked at the fearsome Spirit Army surrounding them and said calmly, “When I said Boss can’t make it here in time, what I meant was they won’t be able to hold out until he comes.”
