This sentence alone made Yin Kong develop a very good impression of the popular idol.
He calmed his emotions slightly, looked up at the luxury apartment building before him, and asked:
"By the way, I still don't know where Miss Yoko's home is?"
"My home?" Ono Yoko was a little confused, but she pointed to the apartment building, "It's the one on the twelfth floor, the easternmost one, right there—"
Seeing Yin Kong looking around as if searching for something, Ono Yoko also asked curiously:
"Did you discover something else?"
"Yes, Miss Yoko. Have you ever thought about why the other party has been in your home many times, but has never run into you?"
Ono Yoko was stunned and guessed:
"You mean, the other party is someone I know?"
Yin Kong nodded slightly:
"Either they are very familiar with your daily routine, or they have been secretly monitoring your movements, always waiting until you leave before acting."
Ono Yoko suddenly realized:
"So, you are looking for the surveillance location?"
In fact, after Yin Kong observed the surrounding terrain, the mission guide had already very thoughtfully marked the three most suspicious locations with yellow dots:
"Precisely. Let's go. If we're lucky enough, we might find some unexpected gains."
Ono Yoko and Yamagishi Ei nodded as if they understood, and followed closely behind.
Soon, they arrived at the first yellow dot, which was the rooftop of the department store directly opposite the apartment building.
"As expected, you can see the situation at my doorstep very clearly from here."
The popular idol was already very convinced of Yin Kong's judgment.
After a search, he finally stopped in front of a trash can in the corner.
Ono Yoko curiously poked her head out and looked into the bin:
Yin Kong put on gloves and took out the crumpled old newspapers from the trash can, unfolding them slowly:
"It seems we're lucky. We don't need to go to the remaining locations."
The unfolded old newspapers were full of square cutouts.
Ono Yoko and Yamagishi Ei exchanged glances. How could they not guess that this was the stalker's masterpiece?
"Next, we need to find the crucial— What?!"
Just as Yin Kong was about to go all out and finish his daily quest as soon as possible, he suddenly froze.
What is that?
In the sky, a huge dark cloud suddenly approached rapidly. In a moment, it flew over the entire city, occupying almost the entire sky.
Chapter 13: Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill
A black shadow instantly enveloped the entire sky. As far as the eye could see, it looked like an indescribably vast, pitch-black vortex hanging upside down above the entire city, slowly rotating.
"Mr. Yin Kong, Mr. Yin Kong, what's wrong?"
Ono Yoko looked up in confusion. All she saw was a clear sky and peaceful times, with no sign of anything shocking or unusual.
As expected, another monster only I can see?
But the sheer scale of its appearance is already so grand, what kind of terrifying demon or monster could it be?
Seeing that Ono Yoko and Yamagishi Ei looked completely bewildered, Yin Kong shook his head:
"No, it's nothing."
To his slight relief, although the scene before him was like a terrifying descent of a demon king, the center of the vortex was not here, but several kilometers away.
In other words, this probably wasn't aimed at him.
However, there is an old Chinese saying: "When gods fight, mortals suffer."
Such a terrifying spectacle made it difficult for Yin Kong not to worry about being accidentally caught in the crossfire.
Yin Kong pointed into the distance, at the location directly under the center of the vortex:
"Miss Yoko, do you know what that place is?"
Ono Yoko looked confused, but quickly replied:
"That place? It should be Tropical Land Amusement Park. I've done promotional work there before..."
Tropical Land Amusement Park?
Yin Kong's eyebrows twitched. He didn't have any impression of this name, but an amusement park—
If he remembered correctly, the place where Kudo Shinichi was knocked unconscious by Gin and then forced to drink poison, turning him into Conan, was in an amusement park.
Yin Kong had actually considered whether or not to intervene in this matter.
Because, as expected, if he could prevent Conan's birth, he would surely be rewarded with Primogems.
And with his current combat power, he didn't really need to fear the Black Organization, the villains in the plot.
But looking back now, he really was too naive.
A World Quest is a World Quest after all; it's not surprising what kind of demons and monsters might pop out.
Just looking at the earth-shattering momentum, it was completely beyond his current qualifications to intervene.
As Yin Kong was thinking, bloody lightning suddenly struck from the center of the vortex.
Amidst the roar of the red lightning, a colossal figure slowly emerged.
The [Shadow Spider Queen]'s size was already astonishing, but in front of this terrifying giant, hundreds of meters tall, it instantly became insignificant, like a tiny bug that could be crushed at will.
This was a ghost warrior completely covered in black and red armor, wearing a Karasu Tengu mask on its face. Its features were hidden, revealing only a pair of red eyes that glowed with blood.
[Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill], this was the monster's name.
And its level was a full seventy—
Wait, dude, you're only level seventy-nine?!
Yin Kong blinked, frozen in place for a good five or six seconds before finally confirming that he wasn't mistaken.
This "Demon King," which seemed capable of destroying the entire city, was not only not level ninety, the max level, but it hadn't even reached level eighty?
Could it be all show and no substance?
As Yin Kong was thinking this, the [Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill] moved.
It hovered in the air, its four jet-black wings suddenly unfurling behind it, instantly whipping up a black tornado that tore through the heavens and earth.
"Mr. Yin Kong, are you interested in the amusement park? The haunted house over there is quite atmospheric. If you don't mind, I can—"
Caw! Caw! Caw...
Ono Yoko froze, noticing that the once sunny sky had become gloomy without her realizing it.
The small animals inhabiting every corner of the city seemed to sense the impending crisis, becoming restless.
Cats and dogs instinctively retreated into their homes, while sparrows and crows took flight, their feathers puffed out, soaring into the sky and emitting noisy shrieks.
"What's happening? Is it going to be an earthquake?"
Ono Yoko and Yamagishi Ei's expressions grew uneasy again. The scene before them truly resembled the omens of some impending disaster.
Of course, compared to what Yin Kong was seeing and hearing right now, all of this was utterly insignificant.
The violent hurricane swept up all the monsters roaming the streets. These terrifying demons, which Yin Kong had been desperately avoiding, were now like Tom facing Jerry, weak and pathetic.
They were swept into the tornado without any resistance, torn to shreds in an instant, scattering into wisps of black mist that merged into the massive tornado.
The tornado, which was originally only twenty to thirty meters in diameter, began to expand rapidly. In less than half a minute, it was nearly a hundred meters thick, possessing the aura of destroying everything.
Just as Yin Kong thought the [Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill] was about to sweep across the entire city with this heaven-piercing tornado, a loud bird cry suddenly rang out.
The next moment, a black beam of light shot up from the center of the amusement park.
It not only broke free from the black tornado's grasp but also pierced through the sky-obscuring dark clouds, tearing a gap and allowing golden sunlight to fall once more.
[Yatagarasu]?
This beam of light finally revealed its true form: a giant, pure black crow, the very same one Yin Kong had seen on Kudo Shinichi's shoulder before.
However, unlike the [Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill], it hadn't transformed into a human form and remained a crow.
But its size had expanded countless times compared to before, reaching seventy to eighty meters tall, enough to stand on par with its opponent.
In the sunlight, the [Yatagarasu]'s originally pure black feathers seemed to be plated with a sacred golden sheen, appearing incredibly majestic and inviolable.
To be honest, if not for the blue name above its head, Yin Kong would have had a hard time confirming its identity.
However, at this point, he was basically certain that such a terrifying upheaval of heaven and earth was indeed inseparable from Kudo Shinichi, the protagonist of the plot.
The [Yatagarasu] spread its wings, and countless black and gold lights converged before it, forming dense, sharp arrows that then shot out like machine-gun fire.
These light arrows easily pierced through the imposing black tornado and accurately locked onto the [Crow Feather Demon Blade Pill] hiding behind it.
Facing this rain of light arrows, the colossal ghost warrior did not hesitate to draw its blade—
The blood-red demonic sword flashed, and the moment it was unsheathed, it almost dyed the dim sky a blood-like scarlet.
Evil, bloodthirsty, greedy...
Even from several kilometers away, Yin Kong could clearly feel the terrifying evil aura emanating from the demonic sword.
Of course, the two colossal beings naturally wouldn't pay attention to him, a mere human in the distance. After a few seconds of confrontation, they both, at a speed almost too fast for Yin Kong to see, charged fiercely at each other—
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The terrifying clash began. The [Yatagarasu] transformed into a constantly rotating black and gold sphere, colliding repeatedly with the blood-red demonic sword.
They were like mobile natural disasters, instantly turning the entire city into their battlefield.
Wherever they passed, there were only four words: overwhelming destruction.
Whether it were the monsters on the streets or the demons hiding in buildings, after being crushed, they all vanished without exception, being converted into their nourishment.
Chapter 14: Ono Yoko's Request
"You two don't need to be too nervous. I don't think this is a sign of an earthquake."
Finally, Yin Kong snapped out of his daze from the earth-shattering confrontation.
He had never encountered a monster that could cause mass animal panic, or even affect the real-world weather, on this scale before.
But this was likely the limit for these two behemoths. At least, there was still an obvious gap before reaching a disaster level like an earthquake or tsunami.
Just by looking at their uneasy expressions, Yin Kong knew his few words clearly couldn't completely dispel their doubts.
Yin Kong didn't push it. He thought for a moment, then took out his phone and walked aside.
"Whoa! Traveler! Are you okay? It's so windy out here, I'm so scared. What should I do, sob sob..."
The moment the call connected, Paimon's panicked voice rang out.
How could she not have noticed this chaotic battle?
"Calm down, Paimon. I'm fine, and you will be too."
Yin Kong had once seriously told Paimon to call him immediately if she encountered any accidents.
In a truly critical moment, he could instantly teleport back.
But it seemed this little guy was probably worried about disturbing him, so even though she was terrified, she chose to hide at home and tough it out alone.
"If you're really scared, Paimon, you can hide in the basement first. I'll be back soon..."
Under Yin Kong's comforting words, the little one finally calmed down slowly:
"No, that's okay. After hearing your voice, I'm suddenly not so scared anymore. And thinking about it, as long as I don't respond, they can't hurt me. Hehe..."
After hanging up the phone, Yin Kong shook his head helplessly. How could he not hear the forced lightness in Paimon's tone?
He should finish this commission as soon as possible.
