[I must say, this story is quite interesting.]

[It's interesting, but the map is a bit short.]

[It's obvious he became a monster by telling stories. Seriously, is becoming a monster that easy?]

[After all, it's the Eastern Land; even in a cesspool there are three monsters! Please, don't spit!]

[What's the joke? Explain!]

Watching the silly netizens chatting without any tension in the barrage comments, Feng Xue silently calculated the time. At this moment, Feng Xue suddenly felt that the intensity of Yan Kingdom martial arts was too high, so much so that these viewers did not feel the slightest tension at all when watching the Weird Tale transform on the spot.

Sometimes he would think that the current Yan Kingdom was not worth mentioning in the Hundred Tales, and that it could be guided slowly, but when he thought of the existence of [the item], Feng Xue would dismiss this idea.

Ultimately, in battles between Weird Tale, physical strength is only a small part; the real focus is the clash between powers and established rules.

In the realm of mythical creatures, where the setting is paramount and special attacks are commonplace, even against powerful Golden Bell Shield with impenetrable defenses like those of Battle Axe missiles, the Hundred Tales only requires a skinning knife to break through their defenses. Similarly, the legends of the Eastern Lands are replete with yokai capable of confronting opponents with indestructible strength and unparalleled defense.

The stories prepared for the Hundred Tales are not long, ranging from one minute to three minutes, which is about the length of an 800-word essay.

Only two minutes had passed when the young man was slowly enveloped in leather-textured armor, and when the image of Another Kamen Rider appeared on the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons Picture.

"Calm down, calm down. That scroll doesn't have any indestructible properties. We can just destroy it with Cannot Be Named rod-shaped object later." Feng Xue entered a state of Mirror Still Water, completely calming her emotions to avoid being detected by monsters with mind-reading abilities. At the same time, she kept a close eye on the location of every Weird Tale present to ensure she could seize the opportunity.

But just then, a Weird Tale with two bulging eyes that took up most of its face suddenly let out a cry of surprise—

"Oh no, it's a missile! Humans have attacked this place with a missile! It will hit the Sky Tree in at most a minute!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the viewers in the Live Broadcast Room who received simultaneous translation immediately went wild. Listening to stories was just for fun; what they really wanted to see was a bloodbath!

[Don't make it too gory, or it won't air!]

[Idiot, if Catfish can't stream, go to YouTube!]

The account you are looking for has been deactivated...

The onlookers began to revel, while a few unaffected Japanese resistance groups started to gather forces to try and salvage the situation. Meanwhile, the countries capable of launching missiles and closely monitoring Tokyo were completely bewildered.

Who launched the missile? When was it launched? How come our satellites didn't detect it?

"What's the panic?!"

Just as a few noises erupted in the Japanese-style room, interrupting Wu who was about to speak, the Youngster with giant horns let out an angry shout. He raised the wine gourd wrapped around his waist and took several large gulps. The moment he completed his spellcasting posture, the entire scene in the Japanese-style room began to distort rapidly.

The original rush tatami mats turned into soil and rocks, and saplings rose from the ground, transforming from tender seedlings into giant trees in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the ground began to rise steadily, and the surrounding walls gradually receded, until a solitary peak with a Japanese feel replaced the original Tokyo Sky Tower (its design can be referenced from the abandoned shrine map in Monster Hunter Rise).

Countless Amanojaku emerged from every corner of the solitary peak; a glance revealed a landscape filled with long-horned monsters in shades of blue, red, green, and purple.

Immediately, a vermilion torii gate suddenly rose from the rocks, followed by a house full of shrine elements.

The Weird Tale that were originally sitting in the Japanese-style room are now all standing on the Stone Slab in the center of the shrine, and the candlesticks that still burn with the Supernatural Tale Fire are still quietly arranged in a circle.

Feng Xue looked at the missile in the sky, which seemed to be right in front of her, and reached out to touch her stomach.

Although it was just a trivial movement, Feng Xue could clearly feel at least a dozen Killing intent rushing towards her, only to quietly dissipate before they could touch her.

Confirming that the power of the Choice Cane was still in effect, he subtly deactivated his Kamen Rider transformation, leaving only a suit of armor underneath.

"What are you standing there for? Continue!" Shuten Doji turned around and glared at him. The dazed Mu immediately snapped out of his daze. Although he felt that everyone's attention was probably not on him when he told a story, he still dared not disobey the deputy leader's order. He immediately found the story that best suited his candle and prepared to speak.

But he had barely uttered his first word when an extremely violent explosion drowned out his voice. The missile slammed into the protruding cliff of Mount Ooe that obscured the shrine, and the terrifying impact and tremors caused the Supernatural Tale Fire on the candlesticks to flicker.

But Mount Ooe seemed to possess the sturdiness expected of Phantom Object; even when directly bombarded by missiles, not a single pebble was blown away.

But just as the smoke rose, a huge black shadow fell from the dust, and a giant ghost, whose appearance was completely different from the other ghosts on the mountain, stepped forward.

"Now!"

Feng Xue suddenly unleashed his power, activating the Heavenly Sphere Star Shifting Technique), and his figure appeared beside Shuten Doji. From this angle and in this position, anyone who saw it would think that he was about to assassinate Shuten Doji.

Just then, cries of surprise rang out—

"Deputy Chief! Watch out!"

Before he could finish speaking, Shuten Doji leaped high into the air, his seemingly slender arm carrying a tremendous force that made the air vibrate, and slammed into Feng Xue, who seemed to want to assassinate him.

Bang!

A violent impact followed, Shuten Doji's expression changed instantly, because the force of this punch was completely wrong!

He wanted to follow up with a strike immediately, but Feng Xue's body had already been lifted into the sky by his attack, and her mocking words followed—

"You've been tricked! Shuten Doji, when it comes to wits, I'm still the better one. Does this direction look familiar? This is my escape route! wryyyyyyyy!"

Accompanied by these extremely absurd lines, cheers erupted in the Live Broadcast Room, while Feng Xue had already made contact with the giant shadow falling from the sky.

Two Golden Light shone like open eyes, and the heavy body crashed to the ground. The outstretched hands, the Silver Ash armor gleaming in the moonlight, and the slender, mechanical structure gave a visual impact that transcended time.

"Buzzing..."

Trembling sounds reverberated through the sky. As the background music of the Angels' attack began, Giant Mechanical Construct, standing twelve meters tall, appeared before the ancient-style Lone Peak Shrine in a completely different manner.
