Chapter 17: Sleepless Nights

Tonight in the Tokyo area is destined to be a sleepless night, with the rumbling of artillery, the occasional gunfire from the distant hills, and the occasional scream, but it soon comes to an abrupt end, meaning that another life is gone.

During the day, it looks stable and peaceful, and no one would have thought that it would be so lively at night.

Yingluo said helplessly: "Compared with natural disasters, it is really more harmful than man-made disasters." Obviously, the world is finally in balance, but someone wants to jump out and break it. ”

Athena shrugged: "Humans are inherently self-destructive, and this trait is exacerbated by their transformation into chaotic creatures. ”

Although the exact origin of the story is unknown, through observing the information, Eiro and Athena can clearly sense that a powerful aragut is approaching the Tokyo area. Being able to be named "powerful" by the true god is almost equated with "annihilation", and if you want to deal with such a monster with the ability of mortals, it is probably all up to luck.

But such a monster turned out to be artificially attracted, and it has to be said that in the talent of death, human beings simply have an innate talent.

Yingluo couldn't figure out at all, what was the purpose of the person who did such a thing, didn't he understand the truth that there were eggs under the nest, or was there some special killer feature that could make the original intestines spare his life?

"I don't understand, I really don't understand!" Ying Luo shook his head and said.

"Knock knock!" came a knock on the door.

"Matsuzaki?"

"Well, it's me!" replied the man outside the door, "The children are a little scared, so I'm here to ask." ”

"Don't worry, no one can break through the barrier. Athena said, "I'll make the barrier soundproof, let the children sleep, and wake up tomorrow and everything will be back to normal." ”

"That's great. In that case, I won't disturb the two of you to rest, good night!" Matsuzaki outside the door put his mind at ease, the longer he spent with these two, the more he could discover their magic, and he could probably rest easy when he could get the promise of these two.

"Such a monster is the real creation of inhibition, and the others are probably just some 'leftovers'. Athena and Yingluo continued the conversation just now: "What do you think?"

Ying Luo squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while: "It's very powerful, compared with ordinary protozoa, it is the difference between professional athletes and otaku, and it is not a grade at all." It has a hard outer skin and molecular level regeneration ability that makes ordinary weapons completely ineffective, and I am afraid that a nuclear bomb will not be enough to destroy it. Moreover, it is not affected by the magnetic field of the megalithic stele metal, but the inhibition force has created an insoluble natural enemy for mankind!"

"I just used its information as a sample and probed around the world, guess what?" Athena said, "Including it, there are a total of eight creatures of this level in the world, and it stands to reason that they should have destroyed human civilization a long time ago, and as a result, they were all asleep, and only this one was inexplicably 'woken up' and led to the Tokyo area." ”

"Well, is it the result of that inexplicable balance? At the moment when the winner was about to be decided, he was forcibly stopped by an external force. It seems that the hidden one who doesn't want to be a hero who saves the world, nor does she want to be a devil who destroys the world, maybe what she wants is this undecided state!"

"Do you mean that chaos and order are intertwined?" Athena nodded, "Your conjecture inspired me, according to you, she is the body of chaos, but she is the soul of order, and she is in a state of two in one." So can we think that she can only survive in a world in this state?"

"Like we can only live in a world of order?" Yingluo asked.

"Strictly speaking, we don't need to live in a world of order, even in the chaotic world of the abyssal hinterland, we can survive, as long as we can maintain a circle of order around our bodies. Athena said: "But you and I both know that chaos and order will cancel each other out, and it takes a lot of effort to build a field of order in a chaotic world, and we must constantly replenish the energy of order. ”

"You're saying that the god of the third-party force, because it is a state of two into one, must also survive in the energy field of two into one?"

Athena shook her head: "Different energy fields may not let her die, but just as we ordered creatures will lose themselves and be polluted by the abyss after staying in the chaos field for a long time, she may not be able to maintain her true nature in other positions." ”

"That's why she's creating a world where chaos and order are in balance?" Yingluo nodded, "I probably understand." ”

"I think it's not easy, chaos and order are incompatible, what she does is like walking a tightrope, and it is incredible that she can succeed. Athena said, "She will not let this hard-won balance be easily upset." ”

"But if no one stops this monster in front of you, peace can destroy human civilization quickly, and the chaotic side is eliminated, and there is no way to talk about balance. Yingluo licked his lips: "So ......"

"So she will definitely come forward to stop it!" Athena continued, "Even if she doesn't come forward herself, she will definitely use some means, and when the time comes, you will be able to find her hiding place!"

"You're right!" Yingluo looked at the firelight in the mountain, "It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night!"

"What are you going to do?" asked Athena solemnly.

Yingluo thought for a moment and replied seriously: "If I can, I don't want to be her enemy. I even want to pull her to our side, after all, in the confrontation with the abyss, our strength is too thin, and one more person is one more strength. If she really needs that kind of energy field that is two in one, we can help her figure it out too. All in all, collaboration is my go-to goal!"

"What if the other party refuses?" Athena asked again, "Maybe there is something unspeakable about the other party, or maybe we beings of order simply can't make the kind of energy field she needs?"

"Don't worry. Yingluo said with a smile: "I won't be rash, and if the other party really refuses, I won't force it." Our goal is simply to send the children back to the divine realm, and the rest can be put aside. It would be best if I could make a deal with her, and I'd rather owe her a favor. But if the other party doesn't give up, I won't be merciful. Although it would be best to get her help, if you can't, cutting her off in advance is also a solution!"

Athena nodded slightly: "It's good that you can think like this, we are in the abyss control zone, so be careful." ”

"I understand!" Yingluo said, stretching out his hand to summon the steel sword: "I'll leave it over there, you stay here to take care of the children, I think those uninvited guests will not be able to trouble you, right?"

"Of course!" Athena said confidently, "I have been dealing with humans for thousands of years, and even if their weapons have changed from swords to guns, it is still very early to challenge the gods. ”

Yingluo nodded and flew out of the window. Athena, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes and looked at the sky, where several missiles were flying towards the outer districts.
