Next up was the duel between Jiang Shaoxu and Koike Shoko.
As expected, there was no way a Psychic Magician would lose in a one-on-one duel. His continuous Psychic Impact prevented his opponent from casting a single spell.
Mofan had already experienced how disgusting a Psychic Magician was when he was still at the Pearl Institute. If it weren't for the Focus Necklace, he would have lost to Ding Yumian!
Koike Shoko was quite strong, but unfortunately, Jiang Shaoxu's Psychic Magic had given her an absolute advantage. Koike Shoko soon conceded the duel, unable to bear the humiliation.
Jiang Shaoxu lifted his head proudly. He did not forget to say to Koike Shoko, "This is the difference between a representative of the national team and a defender of the Training Hall. Don't judge us by the results of the other countries."
The team had won all three duels. They did not let their arrogance go to waste.
After the duel, everyone went back to their rooms to get some rest. It seemed like the people of the West Guard Pavilion were quite shocked by the strength of the representative of China's national team.
…
Late at night, the Japanese commander was slowly walking along the corridor. He was holding his phone and talking to the person on the other end cautiously.
"I've recorded the duel. I'll send you the information tonight. Unfortunately, they only sent three representatives to the duel. If we can gather more information, it'll be beneficial for the duel in the future, "said the Japanese commander.
"General Takagi, the students of the West Guard Pavilion are quite disappointing. I've learned the duel from one of my subordinates. Your defender lost the duel before he could learn anything," said the slightly muffled voice.
"Not necessarily. I believe you will learn a lot from the second round of the duel. The representative from China was dueling with Mochizuki Chihaya, but he didn't lose the duel for a long time. He even managed to cast a surprising Fire Element. I've watched the recording again. If I'm not mistaken, the representative from China University is also a Summoner. He has a rare Fire Elemental Contracted Beast, which granted him a powerful Fire Element," said Commander Takagi.
"Oh, I've heard a little about it … Let's not talk about that for now. Is that damned Iwata still not willing to talk?" the man with the muffled voice asked.
"I don't mean to say anything," General Takagi replied.
"Then let him stay in the East Guardian Tower for a while longer. I would like to see if his bones are tougher or the punishment from the East Guardian Tower is tougher!"
"What if he still doesn't want to talk?"
"Do you really think he would use his life to keep this secret?"
"I think … ah, Chihaya, why aren't you asleep yet?" General Takagi blurted out when he suddenly noticed Mochizuki Chihaya in the middle of his sentence.
Mochizuki Chihaya was standing in the corridor of an arched bridge. General Takagi had walked up to the bridge on his own. He did not notice Mochizuki Chihaya, who was shrouded in the shadows.
Mochizuki Chihaya turned around. She was wearing a kimono with a flower fan drawn on it. Her figure was extraordinarily alluring under the moonlight. The seductive aura she was trying to conceal was enough to stir the hearts of men.
"It's so late, who are you talking to?" Mochizuki Chihaya asked with a smile when she saw General Takagi's phone lit up.
"Oh … oh, an insensible subordinate. He made some mistakes, so I'm criticizing him. Matsumoto, you better give me the plan I want tomorrow morning. Otherwise, I'll send you to the border to guard the isolated island! "General Takagi said sternly to the man on the phone.
Far away in Tokyo, the old general on the naval fortress had a dark expression, yet he still had to play along with General Takagi's act. He said in a humble tone, "Alright, General Takagi, I'll revise it overnight."
"That's all." General Takagi impatiently hung up the phone and shoved it into his pocket. He wore a gentle smile as he stared at the charming Mochizuki Chihaya.
General Takagi was about forty years old. He wasn't tall, and the flesh on his face was very loose, drooping slightly. His pair of small eyes narrowed into slits when he smiled. No one knew what was hidden in his narrow eye sockets.
"Can't sleep? Why don't you come to my room for some sake? My old friend brought me some back from Tokyo. I know you like the taste of Van, too," General Takagi went up to Mochizuki Chihaya and invited her in with a gesture.
"I'm a little sleepy," said Mochizuki Chihaya stiffly.
"Oh, go ahead," said General Takagi calmly. He did not force her to stay.
"It's time for the East Guardian Tower to change their guard. Aren't you going, General Takagi?" Mochizuki Chihaya glanced at the mountain to the east.
"I'll head there with something … oh, by the way, I'm sorry about your brother Iwata. We've sent out a lot of people to look for him, but we still haven't found any clues," said General Takagi.
Mochizuki Chihaya remained silent. She stood there.
General Takagi slowly walked forward. He glanced at Mochizuki Chihaya's back when he passed by her. His lips curled upward as his eyes flickered with an evil flicker.
Mochizuki Chihaya remained in the same spot after General Takagi left. She only said she was tired to get rid of General Takagi. She raised her head and stared at the pitch-black East Guardian Tower with a complicated expression.
"Are you really in there? Why are they imprisoning you?" murmured Mochizuki Chihaya.
…
"Woo woo woo ~!"
"Woo woo woo ~!"
In the upper pavilion, a red alert light suddenly shone down, followed by a series of alarm sounds, like an air raid siren that rang through the quiet night.
Mochizuki Chihaya immediately jumped to the top of the tower when she heard the beeps. She asked the sentry on the tower, "What's going on!?"
The red light immediately stirred the West Guard Pavilion. Groups of Guardians were moving up the stairs and corridors to the top of the tower.
The West Guard Pavilion was actually a fortress on the mountain. To its east was a sea of demon creatures that did not belong to Osaka's territory.
"There's something in the sea!" replied a sentry.
"What is it? Did you see it clearly?" asked Mochizuki Chihaya.
"It's in the sea, I can't see what it is, but over a hundred of the warning devices we set up on the coast have been destroyed," said the sentry Magician.
"Over a hundred? Did a bunch of demon creatures attack? "
"No, I think there's only one!"
