The demons that had been temporarily replaced by Marisa quickly gathered around the place under her command. They formed a fan-shaped formation on the largest empty space on the mountainside.
Looking at the large circle of gazes in front of me and the few faces that I should be able to guess but couldn't point them out at this time, I contacted the mothership in space to prepare the projection system as I organized my words.
This was the hometown of Bo Li and Ling Meng, the home of Yakumo Zixin. It was the last paradise for monsters. Furthermore, the two of them could be considered as my friends. Thus, I decided to do everything possible to minimize the impact of the Atlantis incident on this world. The first step was to let these monsters who were isolated from the outside world know what kind of danger their world was facing.
But before that, I thought that I should first solve the gossip crisis that I was facing. What was going on with those flying around in the sky!
A black-haired girl in a white blouse and black skirt had been flying above us since a while ago. The pair of black wings that extended from her back and the camera in her hand revealed her identity: the famous Hitomaru Bunko of the Tengu clan, the top tabloid reporter in Fantasy Land.
It was said that Hitomaru Bunko's camera recorded all the underwear styles of the girls in Fantasy Land, and the little notebook in her bag recorded all the news of any breathing creatures since the establishment of this world. The unlucky ones who were targeted by this troublemaker would all be exposed within three days. She could be said to be the bane of Fantasy Land. Of course, I was quite indifferent to this. If you had a girl who could calculate the decibels of east longitude of which country's president at 3: 30 pm the next day, in the blink of an eye, you would be indifferent to any form of peeping.
But it was one thing to be indifferent, and it was another thing to be followed and photographed by others without any scruples.
This Tengu Crow, who was always in a state of chasing gossip, was extremely curious about the stranger who came from the outside world and could enter Fantasy Land so casually without being expelled. She was also the one who had been following behind us without any disguise, snapping photos along the way. So, can anyone help me shoot down the black-winged girl who was flying around in the sky with a camera in her hand? Men! Carry my patriot here!
"Ahem, first of all, let me introduce myself. Chen Jun, theoretically speaking … I'm a human, a human from another world. You only need to know my name, because you might not feel much about my identity. This is my lover, Sandora. Sandora? Kelvi? Ulysses, you only need to know our names for now. "
After a simple opening, I pointed at Ling Meng, who was sipping on her tea. "For more detailed information, you can ask this fellow."
"Pfft —" Red and White's mouthful of green tea woke up the cat-eared Orange who was snoring on the other side. While Rhododendron Spp. was busy coaxing her cat-eared loli, Ling Meng angrily shouted at me, "Hey! A black-hearted boss! It's vacation time now! "
The moment the words' black-hearted boss' came out, the monsters immediately started whispering. A black-haired girl with a pair of black wings, who was busy taking pictures in the sky, suddenly swooped down in front of us. She took out a pen and paper and was about to say something, but Sandora glared at her and scared her back. Then, she ran in front of Ling Meng and asked seriously, "Now for the third question: How did you get tricked by this human?"
I was dumbfounded. Could this be Liliana's eldest disciple?
Ling Meng was flustered and picked up her coin, intending to chase away the gossipy tengu in front of her, "Don't do this kind of boring interview at this time!"
Shooting Maru calmly dodged Ling Meng's attack, "The person involved refused to answer the reporter's question due to shame and anger. Now for the seventh question: How is the child? "
Thus, I decided to temporarily categorize these two masters into the background of the voice.
"In short, the thing above your heads was dropped by us."
I raised my hand and pointed at the continent of Atlantis as I said with a calm expression.
After three seconds of silence, the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.
Even a certain unscrupulous reporter who was busy asking Ling Meng about all kinds of unscrupulous gossip stopped what he was doing and stared at us.
I realized that I had successfully attracted the attention of these undisciplined fellows. I tried to explain the problem of the other world in a simple and clear manner, as well as how the gigantic floating island in the sky came to be. There were many monsters who looked intelligent, but in order for them to understand these things, I had to explain them in a simple way.
"Of course, you might not be able to understand these abstract descriptions. Here are some things that are more direct." I tried my best to press down my hands, forcing the monsters to calm down and listen to me. Then, I gave an order to the mothership, "Start the wide area projection."
An almost inaudible sound of energy flow sounded around us. Although it was weak, everyone present could hear it clearly. The residents of the fantasy land quieted down from the commotion and looked around curiously, trying to find the source of the sound. Then, in an instant, an overwhelming holographic projection shrouded the empty space. The mountains and plants around everyone disappeared, replaced by a dark space background and a blue planet floating under the night sky: Earth.
From the birth of Atlantis … civilization, prosperity, the arrival of the empire, the glorious era, the disaster, the invasion, the end of the world, hundreds of thousands of years of wandering in space, collisions, life and death, falling, the Fantasy Village, a period of history that spanned hundreds of thousands of years was condensed into a short ten minutes by this holographic projection. Even the person with the worst understanding would probably be able to vaguely understand the events after seeing these things.
This projection was rushed out by Bubble previously. We used the simplest and most straightforward way possible to show the history of Atlantis to the monsters who came into contact with these things for the first time in order to minimize the time wasted in communication. Now that I look at it, the child's mother is indeed an expert from the 2-D world. Her video editing skills are simply superb. The scene of Atlantis falling was filmed as though a satellite had descended to do battle …
The holographic projection dissipated into the air like flowing water. The group of onlookers still maintained the silence of the 'movie'. I could only cough loudly to get their attention. "Ahem, ahem. Anyway, that's what happened … Speaking of which, why are there so many people missing?"
Looking at the sparse group of monsters in front of me, I was puzzled.
Shumeimaru raised his hand, "When the scene of Outer Sky Island falling, some people involuntarily retreated — all of them fell down the mountain."
I was speechless.
It turns out that it's better not to be too realistic in an open-air movie unless you remember to tie the audience to the chairs.
"In short, this is the situation. The matter of the Atlantis civilization ends here. Now, we must first find a way to send this floating island back to the higher orbit. Then, our army will deal with the mutated monsters on it. But there is a problem: You have to cooperate."
I thought that I had explained the basic situation clearly, so I pointed to the continent above. Under the illumination of the light formed by the monsters' magic, the dark bottom of the continent looked like a thick swamp hanging upside down from the sky. It was very oppressive.
"Our mothership will form an anti-gravity field from space and then 'suck' the entire Atlantis to the higher orbit. But your power has already been integrated into Atlantis' shield system by the energy pipeline of Atlantis. Well, to be honest, Atlantis' own power furnace has been shut down two days ago. Its shield is maintained by the thousands of monsters here. The energy conversion core of the antique shield is damaged. When the energy attribute is switched, there will be a blank period. That is to say, we can't use other energy sources to replace the chaotic energy of the monsters supporting the floating island. When Atlantis is halfway up in the air, it will lose its shield because it is too far away from your energy sources. At the same time, the city's abyssal suppression facilities will shut down. Then, as the entire floating island disintegrates, the abyssal energy inside will swarm out, and this world will be finished. "
First, there was Bori Reimu as a witness. Then, there was the holographic disaster film to demonstrate. Now, there was the serious explanation of the Empire's leader. In addition to the floating island that had been threatening them for many days, no one doubted that all of this was just an alarmist talk.
But … the lack of organization and discipline had always been a characteristic of the fantasy land. With so many monsters in gangs, it was obvious that there was no unified leader. How could we command these guys? How was that possible!
Looking at the group of guys whispering in front of me and the unlucky guys climbing up from the bottom of the mountain behind them, I felt great pressure.
However, the monsters' commotion didn't last for long. As a slightly cold aura approached, all the monsters simultaneously quieted down. A gentle and elegant girl's voice resounded behind us. "Although I didn't really understand it, I understood the gist of it. It seems that destroying the fantasy land wasn't your intention, and it seems that now is not the time to pursue responsibility. "
I turned around and saw that two girls had appeared behind me at some point.
The one walking in front was a girl with medium pink hair. Her skin was strangely pale, but she didn't seem weak. She wore an elegant light purple dress that accentuated her body, which would make most girls feel inferior. She wore a fluffy hat, which reminded me of Gayunzi's favorite hat. What was more eye-catching was that her hat had the Heaven's Wings logo on it …
Cough, cough, my mouth was watering!
The pink-haired girl seemed to be born with a noble and elegant temperament. Even though she was standing in front of a rugged mountain path in a chaotic world, she was as otherworldly as a princess standing in a gorgeous courtyard. Behind her stood a short, short-haired girl. She had white neck-length hair, a green dress, and a black hair accessory with a hint of playfulness. Coupled with her short stature, the second girl looked like a loli, but the long and short knives she wore on her waist, and the "spirit body" that floated behind her that was as soft as cotton candy made people realize that she was no ordinary person.
Unlike the first girl who had an elegant demeanor, the white-haired girl in the green dress gave off a slightly childish feeling. She even had a serious expression on her face and tried her best to look serious. It was as if she was a child trying to show off her maturity in a fit of pique. Why did I think of the mercury lamp?
"Wow! You're here too! "
Marisa exclaimed in surprise when she saw the two girls. It sounded as if Marisa hadn't shown herself since the incident in Fantasy Village. On the other side, Soul Dream calmly put down her teacup. "Ahh, Youyouzi is here too, and Demondream is here too. Even the White Jade Tower finally sensed danger? "
Princess of the Undead, Youyouzi of the Westbound Temple. This was the name of the elegant girl. Let's ignore her problems for now. At the very least, she looked elegant. In response to Soul Dream's nagging, she calmly glanced in our direction. "Although this island doesn't seem to be able to hit me, I felt a little uneasy from the very beginning. I didn't expect this to be the reason. Outsider, I feel that I should trust you, but what should we do? You should know that the people here aren't used to being commanded by others. "
"Ah Jun, I don't know why, but I suddenly feel that this girl is very special."
Sandora tugged on the corner of my shirt and spoke in a low voice that was rare for her.
Suddenly, a chill swept over me from all directions. I foresaw an extremely serious matter. How much food did Fantasy Village produce this year? Did this place have the so-called Ten Year Disaster Rations?
"Isn't it obvious whether we're commanding or not?" Soul Dream clapped her hands and stood up. "We have no way to solve this crisis. Besides, this human, don't be fooled by his looks. He's an incredible person. It's just that he's too nice."
"If he's willing, there's no point in haggling."
A black crack suddenly appeared in the air beside Soul Dream. Eight Cloud Purple jumped out from it. God knows how long she had been eavesdropping in a corner. She had added that sentence when she jumped out.
"Zi?!" The moment Youyouzi saw Eight Cloud Purple, he finally couldn't maintain his usual calm and elegant demeanor. He exclaimed in surprise, "Where have you been for the past few days?"
"I've been with this human. More accurately speaking, I've been working for him."
The surroundings instantly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
I hurriedly waved my hand to dismiss Youyouzi. "Cough, cough. You can discuss this problem with Soul Dream when you have the time. Now that Zi is here, there shouldn't be a problem for everyone to cooperate, right?"
Due to their lack of discipline, the monsters of Fantasy Village were a bunch of lawless fellows who were hard to discipline. This could be seen from the crowd that surrounded us the moment we arrived. However, if there was anyone who had true authority here, it would undoubtedly be Eight Cloud Purple, who was the CEO of Fantasy Village. As the founder of Fantasy Village and the great sage among the monsters, Eight Cloud Purple had unquestionable authority among the undisciplined party. Although it couldn't be said that it was an absolute order, eighty to ninety percent of the people would object to what she said. Even though Mother Zi had been influenced by all sorts of things in the past half a month in the City of Shadows, she had become a person who would slack off, be late to work, sneak away to get food, take a staff card, bite her pen, and tear off tickets for employees who violated the rules. However, the problem was that the people of Fantasy Village hadn't realized this.
"Actually, my plan is very simple. You guys follow me up."
I pointed above my head and said with a smile.
Due to various coincidences, the tens of thousands of people from various races gathered on the Monster Mountain had become Atlantis' battery. They maintained the final energy supply of this ancient colony ship. Once Atlantis ascended into the sky, this energy supply would be cut off. At that time, the floating island's purification equipment would be shut down. Perhaps our ground troops would be able to eliminate the source of the pollution before Atlantis disintegrated, but no one would be able to stop the wanton release of the abyssal energy. It would definitely contaminate the entire Fantasy Village. Due to the fact that Atlantis' universal energy conversion equipment was damaged, we couldn't continuously use the psionic channel on the mothership to switch off the messy energy of the monsters. Therefore, if we wanted Atlantis to enter the high orbit safely, the simplest and safest way was to let these "batteries" travel together.
Of course, I won't explain too much about these complicated things to the monsters. Based on their confused expressions after my words, I believe that everyone should be able to deduce the level of advanced physics in Fantasy Land. Other than Tengu and Kappa, there isn't a single person who understands high school physics in this place, not to mention the Psionic Energy – Universal Energy Transformation Theory that even the scientists of Proteus would have to struggle to learn.
"There shouldn't be anyone here who can send their power above the stratosphere, right?" I paused for a moment before asking Yakumo, who was beside me, for confirmation.
"What is the stratosphere? Is it higher than the heavens? "
"Seems like there isn't. Cough, cough," I coughed and raised my voice. "Then, the people here can go and inform your companions: When Atlantis rises, everyone will move along with it. Other than rising into the sky, you don't have to worry about anything else. You just have to follow the current method of sending out your power. Hold on for as long as you can. Our equipment will provide you with enough oxygen and anti-radiation measures. However, since we can't change people during the process of rising, there will definitely be those who are physically weak who can't hold on. Let me tell you in advance. Drifting in space isn't a fun thing. In the end, Atlantis will enter high orbit. You don't have to care about what high orbit is, as long as it's a very high place. Our mothership will be waiting there, and the monsters that are rising with Atlantis will evacuate at the same time. Remember to be fast and orderly. That antique's energy pool can only accumulate energy for a few minutes, so you have to evacuate to the safe zone within three minutes according to the instructions. The mothership's barrier will protect you from the abyss. The rest of you, yup, just wait for the housing compensation with Bo Li and Ling Meng. Are there any more questions? "
"Well, I understand." Marisa was the first to nod her head. "Although it's strange for a stranger to suddenly jump out and order us around, since we're friends with Souldream and the Great Monster, and we have no other choice, we'll listen to your DAZE!"
Even though she spoke in such an unwilling tone, I could see the genuine eagerness on the little blonde witch's face. It was quite obvious that this novel experience had already caused this girl who loved new things and new lifestyles to enter a state of aerobic combustion …
