After talking with Shinna, Fangzheng also decided on his next goal, which was to find other Elves and make contact with them. And the first target he chose was — — Nightmare.
"Are you really going to look for her? Mr. Fangzheng? "
Looking at Fangzheng beside him, Shiono asked uneasily.
"Didn't Miss Shinna say that the Elf killed a lot of people?"
"Even so, we don't know why she did all this, Shiono."
While quickly browsing through the information on the screen in front of him, Fangzheng replied softly.
"You know, killing people doesn't sound like a good thing at first, but we also have to look at the target. So far, all we know from Shinna is that the Elf did not use Spatial Quake, but used her own hands to kill more than 10,000 human beings. But other than that, we know nothing. As far as we know, Spatial Quake has a large area of effect and is very powerful. Logically speaking, using Spatial Quake to destroy human beings is obviously a convenient means. But the Elf did not use this method. Instead, she used her own power to kill people. The reason for this is still unknown at the moment, and … there's another question. "
"What question?"
"If the Elf really kills people like flies, why didn't she do it to the Magician? Compared to ordinary people, the Magician has the highest chance of conflict with the Elf, but according to Shinna, the Elf seems to only kill ordinary people and rarely attacks the Magician. Not only that, although the number of people she killed seems to be a lot … it didn't cause any sensation. "
Searching through the information on the Internet, Fangzheng soon found the problem.
Ten thousand people was not a small number. Of course, Fangzheng did not doubt that the Elf had this ability. In fact, even Shiono had such power. If she summoned an angel to open up a boundary, she could also freeze an entire city and turn all the people inside into ice sculptures. Based on Shiono's ability, the power of the other Elves was probably not far behind.
But in this case, there would also be a problem.
If the other party had killed ten thousand ordinary people in one go, then such a large-scale disaster would be impossible to cover up. The most the government could do was rationalize it with space quakes or other excuses. However, Fangzheng had searched through the information for the past few years, and he had not found any warnings of space quakes or natural disasters with more than a hundred casualties.
This meant that the number of people killed by this Elf shouldn't be too many. This led to the second question, which was what the Elf's standard for killing people was. If it was an indiscriminate massacre, then it would be impossible to have such a result. Especially with the power of the elves, it would be a matter of minutes for them to kill a group of ordinary people.
In this case, the number of victims in a single incident was rather limited, which could only mean that the Elf was probably selective in her targets.
In that case, as long as he could find information about the victims and determine what they had in common, he should be able to make some judgments about the Elf's personality and motives.
"Ugh... why does it sound so complicated... I don't understand at all..."
"Perhaps it's too complicated for Sentono."
He looked at the girl beside him who had lowered her head and was deep in thought. Fangzheng smiled as he stretched out his hand to rub her head.
"But this isn't something you need to worry about, Sentono. You just need to keep acting like this. Those things aren't suitable for you to deal with. Leave them to me."
This was Fangzheng's first reason. The other reason he didn't believe in Sentono was that... Sentono was just a child.
Although Sentono looked very capable in terms of aura, she was only 13 or 14 years old. However, she was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child. Children at this age were the easiest to be deceived. Otherwise, why would there be no college students who became magical girls? It was because after graduating from high school, their outlook on life and values had basically been set. They would no longer be incited by illusory slogans such as peace and justice, love and dreams like when they were young.
Sentono, on the other hand, was still at this naive and honest age. Through his previous conversation with her, Fangzheng had discovered that Sentono's brain circuit basically went along the lines of "Spatial quakes are very harmful to humans", "Spatial quakes are caused by Elves", "Elves are very harmful to humans", "Therefore, Elves must be eliminated to protect humans".
For such an innocent girl, even if there were some secrets, the DEM would probably not tell her.
While Fangzheng was deep in thought, he had once again hacked into the DEM database and found the information on "Incubus". Sure enough, Fangzheng soon found the list of victims in the information. Well, it was a long and shocking list. Indeed, if an ordinary person were to see such a long name list, perhaps they would think that this Elf was a homicidal maniac who killed people like flies.
Next, it was time to find out what these victims had in common...
"Woo....!!!"
At that moment, an urgent alarm suddenly sounded. Fangzheng and Sennai saw the people around them quickly running towards a building not far away. They quickly got into an elevator, and soon, the iron gates of a building were lowered in front of Fangzheng, sealing off the surrounding buildings.
"Hey! What are you doing?! "
Not far away, a passerby who was running towards the shelter shouted at Fangzheng and Sennai.
"The spatial quakes are coming! Hurry up and take shelter! "
While yelling, the passerby also rushed into the shelter not far away.
Hearing his shout, Fangzheng and Sennai looked at each other.
Is this the spatial quakes alarm?
Looking at the well-trained faces of the people around him, as if they were used to it, Fangzheng finally understood why there was no one around him every time he appeared in this world. It seemed that this world's disaster relief drills were done very well.
But...
"Sennai, do you feel any spatial fluctuations?"
"Nope...."
Sennai shook his head in response to Fangzheng's question. As an Elf, Sennai could more or less sense the spatial fluctuations produced when the current world collided with the neighboring world. But this time, Sennai did not seem to notice the signs of the spatial quakes.
"Me neither...."
While saying that, Fangzheng turned on his personal terminal and scanned the surroundings. The spatial frequency was normal. There should be no problem, right?
Could it be a false alarm?
While Fangzheng was thinking, there was suddenly a whistling sound not far away. Fangzheng looked up and saw dozens of heavily armed magicians flying across the sky, rushing forward. Not long after that, intense gunshots and explosions rang out one after another.
It seemed that a battle was going on over there. Since one side of the battle was the magicians, the other side should be the Elves.
"Sennai."
Thinking of this, Fangzheng quickly made a decision.
