The wind carried the heat of summer as it blew across the clear blue sea. It created waves that no one knew about, causing the sea to undulate and the sound of the waves to slowly ring out. It was pleasing to the ear.
This was the Pacific Ocean, the world's largest, deepest, widest ocean with the most islands.
In the middle of such an ocean, there was an island floating 330 kilometers south of Tokyo.
It was a man-made island.
However, it was definitely not an ordinary artificial island.
Looking down from above, people could only see a city of steel buildings sitting on the ocean, forming a large metal island.
In fact, this island was made of carbon fiber, resin, metal, and magic. It was connected by a large floating structure.
The temperature here was maintained above 20 degrees all year round, and the total population was about 560,000. It was administratively classified as Tokyo, but in fact, it was a special administrative region with an independent political system.
The purpose of this administrative district's existence was to protect non-human life forms that were on the verge of extinction and to research their body tissues and special abilities.
However, the so-called non-human lifeforms did not refer to animals, but — "demons".
There were many living beings in this world that only appeared in myths and legends.
For example, the orcs.
For example, elves.
For example, demons.
Another example, vampires.
In Chaldea, such non-human lifeforms were known as Fantasy Breeds. They had long since disappeared from the modern world, but in this world, they survived and were known by the world.
Naturally, there were also magic, curses, and all sorts of other magic systems in this world. In terms of mystical purity, depth, and universality, this world far surpassed any other world.
Thanks to this, the non-human lifeforms known as Demons were able to survive.
The artificial island here was a special administrative region that focused on the research of non-human life forms such as orcs, elves, half-demons, artificial life forms, and vampires.
There was more than one such special administrative region in this world. There were quite a few of them.
Demons, which were extremely rare in the human world, could be seen everywhere.
Here, humans and Demons lived together, at least on the surface, in harmony.
People called this place the "Special District of Demons".
The existence of the Demons Special District caused their numbers to plummet due to the effects of natural destruction or wars with humans. The Demons, who were on the verge of extinction, not only gained the recognition of the public, but they were also protected.
In return, the Demons' body tissues or special abilities would be analyzed and used for scientific or industrial expansion.
This was the purpose of the existence of the Special District of Demons, which was to protect the Demons on the verge of extinction, and to use the abilities of the Demons for scientific development and research. It could be said that it was a combination of mystery and science, an existence that was very similar to Chaldea in nature.
As for the residents of the island, apart from the Demons, most of the rest were human researchers and their families, as well as people with special abilities who were recognized here. They studied, worked, and lived together with the Demons who were research subjects.
Due to this nature, this place was also known as an academic city. It was full of pharmaceutical, precision machinery, high-tech materials industries, and other large enterprises or research institutions of well-known universities.
This was the true face of this artificial island.
Because the person who created this artificial island was called Flux God Qian Luo, he didn't hesitate to pay any price to combine the most advanced science and technology with Fengshui and magic. Finally, he was able to create this enormous artificial island on the dragon vein flowing through the sea. Because of this, people named this special region of the devil race as Flux God Island, and the academic city located on the island as Flux God City.
This was the main stage of this world, where all kinds of events and disturbances would come.
On this day, an outsider broke into this place.
"Buzz —!"
In the sky above the Flux God Island, the space suddenly distorted and turned into a whirlpool of light. It was like the exit of a passage, suddenly appearing, causing the surrounding atmosphere to become chaotic.
The next second, a black shadow rushed out from it.
The main body of the shadow was a three-legged crow.
The three-legged crow's entire body was sprinkled with resplendent fiery powder. Its eyes were golden, and within them were three magatas that revolved. The aura it emitted was pure, rich, and noble, giving it a sacred and inviolable feeling of existence. It was extremely intimidating.
Its posture was like that of a god descending from the sky.
Its aura was like that of a sun hanging high in the sky.
This three-legged crow seemed to have experienced some kind of arduous journey, and its aura was somewhat unstable.
But the three-legged crow seemed to have completed some kind of mission. It looked down from high in the sky, sweeping its gaze over the entire sea. Finally, its gaze fell on the artificial island floating above the sea.
"Whoosh!"
The next instant, the three-legged crow shot out like a sharp arrow towards the artificial island below.
Its speed was so fast that one could only see a pitch-black phantom and the golden light formed by the fire powder. It was very pleasing to the eye.
Before long, the three-legged crow reached the Flux God Island and arrived in the sky above Flux God City.
However, its mission was far from being completed.
Although the three-legged crow was a high and mighty deity, he indeed had a mission right now.
That was to find a reliable existence and hand over the object of its loyalty and protection.
If it didn't do that, then its master's survival in this world would become a problem.
Thus, the three-legged crow would definitely spare no effort.
And for this ancient god, the so-called 'reliable existence' was naturally a powerful individual.
The Three-legged Crow sensed a magic power of the highest level on the island.
"Chi!"
Without any hesitation, the three-legged crow shot out towards its target at an extremely fast speed.
Its speed was incomparably fast.
At the same time, on one of the main streets of Flux God City, there was a young girl walking along the bustling street scene.
No, rather than calling her a young girl, it would be more appropriate to call her a young girl.
She appeared to be around eleven or twelve years old and was wearing the uniform of an unknown school. She was petite and dainty, but her face was frighteningly delicate. It was as if she was a doll sculpted by the highest grade artist.
The young girl had long black hair that reached her waist like a waterfall. Only the ends of her hair were curled up, making her look quite fashionable. Her eyes were a mysterious blue color, and her whole body was emitting a strange sense of existence and dignity, making people feel incomparably novel.
"So hot."
At this moment, the young girl was standing on the street as if she had just finished her school duties and was preparing to return home. She stopped in the middle of the stream of people and impatiently sighed.
"When will this island become a little cooler?"
The young girl didn't have any extravagant hopes or expectations and only grumbled.
However, because her expression was too impatient, her face was too straight, and her eyes were too stern, it felt more like an order.
But no one knew that this young girl was one of the most special existences on the island.
The young girl continued to walk forward with this special feeling in her heart.
She was completely unaware that some distance away, the three-legged crow was rapidly approaching.
