In order to prevent the enemy from escaping, we went all out. Not only did Sandora personally take care of the ordinary people, we even mobilized the heroic spirits to help seal off the streets. Moreover, a large group of special agents were responsible for providing support and the few of us personally took action. It was clear that we were determined to win. It could even be said that in order to capture an enemy that Lin Xue didn't think was that powerful, the upper echelons of the Empire actually mobilized so many forces. It was as if they had nothing better to do. During this process, Shallow Shallow's incessant instigation seemed to have played a decisive role.
"That's strange. The enemy still hasn't made a move. Is he scared out of his wits or he didn't notice us?"
After we arrived at the sealed street, Sandora confirmed the spiritual marker that she had placed in advance and immediately felt strange. I replied noncommittally, "Maybe he has some kind of ability that makes him fearless?"
"Impossible. The enemy's energy reaction isn't that strong. Other than that strange power, there's nothing alarming about him." Sandora shook her head and looked at the empty streets. "This place is really run-down."
"It can't be helped. It's the old city area, and it's near the most chaotic slums."
The place where the 'enemy' was hiding was beyond our expectations. Not only was it not some fancy headquarters, but it was also the most run-down street in K City. Half of the houses here were bungalows and shacks. The tallest building within a few miles was a high-voltage power line tower. The brand-new thing that entered our sight was the word 'demolition' on the wall at the end of the street. It was unbelievable that such a place hid a person who almost caused hundreds of ghosts to appear in the nearby cities. It was unbelievable. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why the special ability team couldn't find the enemy. Who would have thought that such a powerful person would be hiding in such a desolate place?
The peripheral personnel had sealed off all the entrances and exits of this street. Sandora had all the ordinary people here enter deep sleep. This way, it was convenient to protect them and hide our movements. Secondly, it was to prevent the enemy from using the spiritual world of the ordinary people here to trigger large-scale supernatural fluctuations. Even though a small-scale supernatural phenomenon would be instantly stopped by Lin Xue's gaze, there were tens of thousands of people here. It was more than enough for Lin Xue to stare at them until her cornea flares. Before coming over, the young lady also contacted the Special Ability Group and asked them to take care of the aftermath. In layman's terms, it was to clean up the mess. He didn't know how everyone in the Ability Group felt about this arrangement, but they should be able to accept it since they had the experience of interacting with Boundless Love.
The energy signature of the 'enemy' was very clear. In this street block that had fallen into a deep slumber due to Sandora's power, there was only one active target. The enemy was less than a hundred meters ahead, inside a small shop selling fried paste noodles.
"I never thought that an operation that I would personally command would be carried out in a place like this." Looking at the low and cramped houses and the narrow and fragile streets around us, it was obvious that they didn't even have the strength to withstand a single claw from the Abyss Sandora. Her Majesty the Queen sighed. "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have fooled around with Shallow Shallow. This kind of operation should have been handed over to a squad of Empire soldiers."
By then, we were already close to the target building. It was a tattered steel house with a signboard for fried paste noodles hanging on the door. It was laughable that a group of high-ranking officials of the Empire were besieging such a shabby 'nest' as if they were facing a great enemy. Not only did Sandora feel awkward, even I secretly decided that I would never follow Shallow Shallow around and cause trouble on a whim again.
However, a certain energetic girl who had completely immersed herself in the role of an Interpol didn't care about the subtle expressions on everyone's faces. The moment we got close to the steel house, Shallow Shallow took out a megaphone that she had prepared and shouted so loudly that it almost tore down the roof, "The suspect inside, listen up! You or you have been surrounded! Resistance is futile! Hurry up and surrender! You have the right to remain silent later, we will make sure that you can't speak! We have more people, our fists are bigger … Ah, Ah Jun, what are you doing? "
"Can you not learn Icetis's perverted language from her in the future?"
I gloomily looked at the girl who had a silly smile on her face. At the same time, I was furious at a certain female pervert for leading my once pure and cute Shallow Shallow astray.
"Clang — Crash!"
A series of chaotic noises sounded at the same time from the steel house. It seemed that the people hiding inside had accidentally knocked over pots and pans in their haste. In between the noises, I seemed to hear a panicked, animal-like scream, but the sound was so soft that it wasn't very clear.
Shallow Shallow's act of alerting the enemy actually caused such a sound. This caused everyone to look at each other in dismay. Visca impatiently took out his 1,000mm cannon and positioned it in front of his sister. "Why don't you just blow it up, they are still waiting to go home to watch cartoons!"
Perhaps because of this threat, I didn't even have the time to tell the two 1.2 meters to put away the huge cannon that couldn't be used in urban warfare. A dirty figure crawled out of the caigang room. As he crawled up, he hurriedly shouted something. Unfortunately, I didn't hear him clearly.
Then, this dirty figure became the center of attention of the upper echelons of the Empire.
"This … should only be a little girl, right?"
Sandora's eyebrows trembled slightly as she spoke in a subtle tone.
Ugh, seems like it, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me.
The person who crawled out of the small house was a dirty girl. She looked to be about 13 or 14 years old, probably between the age of a loli and a teenager. She had shoulder-length hair that almost reached her shoulder blades. Her hair was almost messy because of the black cinder stains, but a little bit of gold was still very obvious. Was she a foreigner? The clothes that the girl was wearing were also tattered, but it was still possible to confirm that when it was intact, it should have had a luxurious appearance and accessories. The style of the clothes was also very strange. In my memory, even in the strange place like Er Li Qiao, there was no such clothing that was between casual and luxurious.
The person who made us mobilize so many troops to surround and intercept her was such a person.
I wasn't the only one who was dumbfounded. Even Qian Qian, whose mental state was strong enough to ignore the laws of nature, was dumbfounded. She was stunned for a while. Then, she looked expectantly at the little girl who was looking at us with fear in her eyes. "Are you not ready yet? Why don't we wait for you for a while, then we fight after you transform? "
Did this girl really think that the other party was actually a demon king wrapped in a young girl's skin?
"I … I'm sorry!" The dirty girl crossed her hands in front of her chest and bowed deeply to us. Her voice was unexpectedly pleasant to the ears, and it seemed to have a little rhythm to it. "I was just too hungry, I didn't want to steal anything … The people here suddenly fell asleep, it wasn't my doing, really … I just wanted to eat something …"
"It was a huge mistake to join in on the fun." Sandora used her index finger to rub her forehead, her tone was thick with resentment. She was a silly and optimistic girl usually, but it didn't mean that she could be as willful as Shallow Shallow when carrying out a mission. Facing this situation that had evolved into a farce, she felt that her dignity had been swept away. Although this lass didn't have any majestic aura in front of us, it was still a little strange.
"There's no one else nearby," Lin Xue's voice sounded through the mental link, "It's just this girl. My ability has a certain degree of distortion on her body, this kind of interference isn't something an ordinary person can achieve. "
When Lin Xue suddenly used her prophecy ability to decipher the identity of the mysterious girl before us, the latter seemed to sense something and suddenly raised her head to look at us, her bright eyes filled with wariness. In other words, although she looked harmless, the mysterious girl before us was indeed different from ordinary people.
"That …" I took a step forward and stopped at a distance that wouldn't attract the other party's attention. I opened my mouth, but I didn't know what to say. Our original goal in coming here was to kill the boss and then carry out the Judgement of Justice, but I never expected that the boss wouldn't spawn, but a random Red Riding Hood. If it was the story that Shallow Shallow made up, the armored Red Riding Hood with a combat power of a hundred thousand, we might have been able to put up a fight, but the other party was actually scared silly the moment we saw her. Not only did she not resist, she even trembled when we spoke. At this time, if we were to follow the original script and give a passionate speech … wouldn't that be ridiculous?
"We're here to protect world peace! Honestly tell us your name, address, nationality, gender, and whether you're a transgender, how many people in your family, how many acres of land do you grow on, and what kind of household do you have? Take out your household register, ID card, bank card, driver's license, elementary school graduation certificate, level 4, and level 6 certificates, all of them! "
I was wrong, there was indeed a person with limitless moral integrity who could ignore the atmosphere and act according to the original script. Liliana took large strides forward and stood in front of the other party with an imposing manner. She pointed at the girl like a warrior of justice who was making a declaration of challenge to a demon king. Every word she said was extremely heavy.
The dirty nameless girl was startled and looked confusedly at the little girl who was less than a meter tall and was spouting nonsense. Before she could open her mouth, Liliana continued, "Most importantly: Recently, the city has been haunted every day. Are you the one causing trouble?!"
"I … I'm sorry." The dirty girl shrunk her head. She seemed to be someone who was used to apologizing, but her next words made me become serious. "I really didn't do it on purpose. I didn't think that this world didn't have summoning spells. I'm sorry for causing trouble for everyone …"
Sandora's gaze changed slightly, and a faint golden light flowed in her eyes. Then, her gaze focused on the dirty girl's waist.
Just like how she noticed Lin Xue's attention, the nameless girl immediately noticed Sandora's gaze and anxiously covered the small pocket on her waist. However, her action was interrupted by Sandora's powerful mental control. Then, she watched helplessly as Sandora took out something from her body.
Sandora took out a silver-white metal disk from the nameless girl's waist and waved it at us. Right after that, the nameless girl shouted, "Return it to me! Return the holy disk to me! "
"What is this?"
I asked softly after Sandora retreated. My gaze fell upon the metal disk in her hand, and the familiar energy patterns on it stunned me.
"A mutated Information Terminal commonly used by Empire commanders. It can be directly linked to the mind." Sandora's finger brushed across the edge of the metal disk, her expression solemn. "There's no serial number. It seems to have been erased by someone so that ordinary people could use it."
"Don't touch the holy disk! It's dangerous! Return it to me at once! "
As Sandora analyzed the Information Terminal, the dirty, mysterious girl was still shouting, her voice full of anxiety. Visca suddenly took out a machine cannon and pointed it at her. "Why do you have the assets of the Empire?"
The mysterious girl calmed down in an instant when a huge weapon was pointed at her head. She assumed a defensive stance and encouraged herself. "I can only fight, I can only fight … Alright, my mission is to protect the holy disk … It's fine, I've learned it from my teacher, I can definitely get it back …"
"What is she mumbling about?" I nudged Lin Xue next to me, wanting to see what the prophet thought of this strange girl. She suddenly pulled Sandora and me and jumped backward. "Be careful!"
"Thunder Roar!"
The dirty girl's body was still locked on by Sandora's mind control, but she could still launch an attack. She looked in our direction and shouted. Then, the sound of energy gathering resounded in the sky. Just as Lin Xue pulled Sandora and me away, a blinding white light pillar descended before us, burning the ground less than half a meter in front of us into a pool of surging magma.
The corner of my mouth twitched. I looked up at the sky speechlessly. The distorted space door in the sky had yet to dissipate. In the distorted light screen, the muzzle of the armed satellite could still be vaguely seen.
After using satellite bombardment for so many years, we were almost hit by a satellite cannon today.
"In that instant, her mind waves mutated, like a Shiring Apostles." Sandora looked at the girl in front of her with interest, unconcerned about the satellite cannon that she had narrowly dodged. In fact, even without Lin Xue's warning, the satellite cannon might not have broken through Sandora's energy shield. At most, she would have been in a sorry state. "Now, she's back to normal. What a strange person. She's not human."
"Did you dodge it?" The nameless girl bit her lip after missing her attack. As Sandora had released her mind control, she immediately took two steps back and looked at us cautiously. "I'll give you one last warning. Return the holy disk to me! I don't want to hurt anyone! "
I didn't know where the girl suddenly gained such courage, or where did her reckless foolishness come from. Facing an absolute disadvantage in numbers and not even knowing the enemy's strength, she attacked with such confidence. Moreover, she didn't even defend against the huge machine cannon in Visca's hand, only knowing to face the enemy head-on. Does she really know what a battle is?
Sandora had developed a strong interest in the strange girl. She had summoned a satellite with her human body and carried an Empire's Information Terminal with her. This had already begun to confirm Lin Xue's prophecy. And now, to see what other secrets the girl had, Sandora began to toss the 'holy disk' that the girl valued so much up and down in a mischievous manner, looking at the girl with an arrogant smile. Her meaning was clear: If you want it, come and get it yourself.
Her provocation successfully angered the girl. She suddenly pressed her hands on the ground and shouted, "Remona! Go and get the holy disk back! "
Circles of complicated golden light rapidly spread out from the ground beneath the young girl. Large amounts of unrecognizable characters that seemed like physics formulas appeared from the light and rose into the air to form an oval-shaped door with a diameter of nearly ten meters. We stared in astonishment at this seemingly frail girl who was actually able to cast such a flashy skill. This continued until a gigantic magical beast with two wolf heads, covered in thick black and purple fur, surrounded by countless dazzling lightning bolts, was stuck in the door.
If I guessed correctly, the gigantic 'beast' that rushed out of the door and got stuck in the middle should be the Remona that the girl mentioned.
Even though it was stuck in the door due to its size, the beast named Remona still tried its best to attack the enemy. This ferocious-looking otherworld creature's body was covered in lightning as if it was about to turn into a long snake and rush towards us. The gigantic two-headed wolf struggled frantically as it let out a deafening roar. "Woof woof woof! Woof! Woof woof woof! "
Me: "…"
"Wu … I'm so hungry. I can't summon it …" The nameless girl rubbed her stomach and looked apologetically at the two-headed wolf stuck in the teleportation door. The latter suddenly stopped roaring at the enemy and tilted its head in confusion as it looked at its master who had summoned it. "Woof?"
Then, with a "piu" sound, the two-headed wolf only had time to let out a cry of surprise when its tail was stepped on by a pet dog before it disappeared along with the summoning door.
"Damn it … If I wasn't hungry, I wouldn't have failed like this … Hurry up and return the holy disk to me! That thing really isn't something you can touch! " The nameless girl's face was full of regret, but she still stubbornly demanded that we return her treasure. She didn't realize that she was in a disadvantageous position, and there was an unreasonable fearlessness in her voice. Moreover, she repeatedly emphasized the danger of the Sacred Disc as if she were concerned about us, her enemies.
"Forget it. Looks like we've really run into a huge blunder today … Tsk, after so many days of hard work, we've finally caught this little brat." Lin Xue pouted gloomily as she took the 'holy disk' from Sandora's hand, and walked towards the nameless girl while pulling out two identical Information Terminals from her dimensional pocket, albeit with a difference in color.
"Young girl, I am the prophet of the world. Now, the choice is yours: Did you throw away the silver disk, the gold disk, or the iron disk?"
With a bright smile on her face, our great prophet placed three discs of different colors in front of the dumbfounded girl.
