Chapter 132: The Refuge of the City of Angels; Dreams wander.

Countless black xenomorph dragons hovered over the forest with their monstrous wings, surveying everything around them, as if considering where to start their destruction.

Destruction is the only way for these dragons to survive.

However, the deepest part of the forest, the huge city that had fallen to the ground, was not attacked by the dragons. It was as if some invisible force was guarding the City of Angels, keeping the irrational dragons away from the city. But the area far from the city was not so lucky, and both the junction of the forest terminus and the abyssal forest were wreaked havoc by the dragons.

Then, the bottomless abyss began to appear, taking the place of the forest.

―1―

In the open space in the center of the arena of the City of Angels, a large red mothership is docked, and the door of the mothership is open. In the open gate, the Cogwheel Beasts and Mecha Armored Beasts belonging to the Factory City are transporting metal parts and terminals not far away to repair the body of the damaged Infinity Drakemon.

The damage to the Infinity Dragonmon's body was so severe that it would take a long time to completely restore it to its original form. In short, it may not be able to fight for a while now.

"Is Document Island really non-existent?"

The steel sea dragon beast on the side suddenly asked.

"Yes. 67% of the data in the digital world has been deleted, and the deletion area is still increasing; In less than three days, the entire digital world will be completely erased, except for the City of Angels. ”

Even if the function is severely damaged, the ability to process intelligence is reduced. The Infinite Dragonmon still dutifully connected its data cable to the terminal to collect the current information.

"It's a disaster"

The home where he had been living for a long time was easily destroyed, and the Iron Sea Dragon Beast was somewhat unwilling.

"Cherubi said that the destruction of the digital world will not last long, and that when the disaster is over, everything will start again."

Contrary to the Steel Sea Dragonmon, the Infinite Dragonmon's performance was very indifferent.

"Now, it's important to get your body back to the way it was as it was as soon as possible."

It is difficult to guarantee the safety of the City of Angels, and there will be battles in the City of Angels, and the Infinite Dragon Beast still hopes that its body can be repaired sooner. Although there are clownmons and puppetmons to supervise them, leaving the ship completely under the management of molecular beasts does not make Infinity Dragonmon feel at ease. After all, the ship is Factory City's supreme masterpiece and needs to be properly managed, not left to the Molecular Beasts.

"Actually, you're worried that the molecular beast will manipulate the spaceship indiscriminately."

It seemed to see the Infinite Dragonbeast's concerns, and the Steel Sea Dragonmon complained.

"The ship is still unfinished and cannot cross the line to reach the human world."

The Infinite Drake replied.

"In this situation, I don't think it's a good thing to go to the human world."

The Steel Sea Dragonmon was complaining again.

※※※※※

In the inner workshop of the red mothership, the molecular beast is quickly operating the terminal to query the information of various places, and the screen of the large number shows that the digital world has been attacked by the dark multi-road tyrannosaur beast, and the scene of the abyss has appeared.

While controlling the terminal, the molecular beast secretly glanced at another terminal not far away, only to see Mina sitting on a chair lying in front of the terminal and falling asleep.

"The human body is really fragile, just 32 hours without rest to control the data, is it a bit physically exhausted."

She didn't cause much trouble, and the molecular beast somewhat admired her talent and perseverance.

"However, it is a bold act to be able to modify the core data of that vampire without authorization. There's a little bit of anticipation of what kind of new ultimate Vampire Beast will evolve into. ”

A new evolution is one of Digimon's extravagant hopes.

Although he didn't know what was going on between the Demon Sucking Beast and the Sage Beast, when he reappeared in front of Mina, he made a serious request to his partner.

"Unleash your true abilities, Mina. Albardia, don't continue to hide your 'design work'. With your abilities, I will gain new evolutionary powers. ”

"Did you know that? Maybe the Sagemon told you."

At that time, Mina showed an embarrassed expression. But it can be said that she has been keen on designing the new ultimate body of Vampire Monster for a long time, but she has not announced her 'design results' to the public. At least now, she's able to make her wish come true.

Looking at the vampire beast that was surrounded by a dark blue cube, its body was suspended, and its eyes were closed and it fell into a short hibernation.

"I sincerely hope that she can succeed, but don't be killed by the vampire monster because of failure~!"

Serious topics are said in a relaxed tone by molecular beasts.

――Consciousness dormancy-

――Pivotal Connection--

――Core Data Modification——

――Image Design――

――Internal Reinforcement and Supplementation――

――Data Transmission——

――Waiting for the results――

It's just seven steps, and Mina sticks to her own 'design results'. Now, all that remains is the transfer of all the data, waiting for the final result. 32 hours of hard work is also considered a long time, because the final results need to wait, and she is a little slackened and falls into a short sleep because she is too tired.

The sound of steady breathing from the girl's slightly open lips.

"Work, work~~ Infinite Dragon Beast, that stubborn guy must think I'm going to mess around again."

Still not caring about human affairs, the molecular beasts once again put their energy into intelligence gathering. What does that guy from the Infinite Dragon Beast think of himself, he doesn't bother to care~~

※※※※※

Where is this?

Opening her eyes, Mina finds herself standing in a world of white nothingness.

"It's just your dream, don't worry."

A gentle voice rang out. Then, the ground around Mina began to protrude from the walls, and a warm and simple enclosed box-shaped room appeared.

When she came to her senses, Mina realized that she was sitting in a chair with cherubimon on the other side of the table.

"I'm really sorry to have entered your dreams and talked to you while you were slackening."

The cherubimon, sitting across from Mina, apologized sincerely.

"With your identity and character, you can talk to me openly, instead of trespassing on other people's dreams at non-important moments."

Feeling that her ** was not respected, this made Mina a little unhappy.

"I'm sorry, because you've been deliberately avoiding me. Besides, it's important for your partner to gain new evolutionary powers, so I don't want to disturb your precious time. I'm going to talk to you this way when the research is almost over, sorry"

The cherubimon apologized again. While it's true that Mina avoids meeting it, it seems that she has a somewhat bad impression of herself after learning about the Vampire Beast's previous dealings with her from her other companions.

"And, we're running out of time. So, I hope you will be able to accept my commission. ”

"Delegate?"

"Yes, I hope you can convince the Vampire Beasts to protect the City of Angels and fight the Royal Knights."

This is the commission of cherubimon.

"Is there more than one royal knight?"

If it was a Divine Angel Beast, it would definitely agree without hesitation. But cherubimon hopes that he can convince the vampire beasts that the royal knight who attacked the city of angels is not a single knight.

"It's the Skull Beast and the Holy Radiance V Dragon Beast, two royal knights."

The cherubimon replied truthfully.

"After the Biochemical Digimon attacked the City of Angels and caused it to fall, I, the Divine Celestial Beast, and the Slashing Angel were unable to fight because they were seriously injured, and the most seriously injured Divine Celestial Beast is still recuperating until now. Since I've only just evolved the Ultimate Body, and I've purified the source of the miasma with Raphaelmon, I don't have much power left. ”

"And the four rulers of Document Island are also differently injured, the puppet beasts and clownmons that can fight are just ordinary ultimate bodies, and they have very little combat experience, so it is impossible to defeat the royal knights. The only ones who can fight the two Royal Knights are the Holy Angelmon and the Vampire Beast, which can evolve a new Ultimate Body. Although the Holy Angel Beast has promised me to fight for the City of Angels, he alone cannot compete with the two royal knights. ”

"Convincing the Vampire Beast to fight, I can't guarantee that I can do it, he will only do what he wants. As his partner, I can't force him, but I'll try to guide him as much as I can. ”

For Mina, there is no relationship between partners who command and be ordered, but rather understand each other as different individuals.

"Also, why did the Royal Knight attack the City of Angels? I would like to know the reason. ”

"The City of Angels is the only sacred place that is not affected by the Ark Project. However, after the Key of the Seal was taken away, the City of Angels, which could no longer fulfill its sealing duties, also lost its existence value to Igudo Lahir. That's why Igudo Rahir, who wants to reset the digital world, will let the royal knights destroy the City of Angels. ”

"Do you really think so?"

Mina was skeptical of Cherubimon's answer.

"The answers I received from communicating with the Magenimon on Document Island, and the contact with Ryder with the Nexus, as well as the future you and the Shagumi envisioned, all indicate that the Ark Project could be terminated. The real threat to the existence of the Digital World is what the Stubborn Beast calls the 'Lord of Calamity'. ”

"I don't know why Igudo Rahir carried out the 'Ark Project', but I think it all has something to do with the 'Lord of Calamity'. It seems that Igudo Rahir deliberately carried out the 'Ark Project' in order to achieve a certain purpose, so he used that purpose to test the human and digital worlds. And, since you can foresee the future, it is not impossible for Igudo Lahir, as a god, to do the same. Maybe it's just about the future, like you, and Ryder and I are just pawns of the future."

Since we are the 'gods' of the digital world, we must also see the future. Therefore, everyone's fate is actually completely under control. That's what Mina thought.

"I don't deny that it's really foolish to follow the future"

Cherubimon understood her feelings.

"But wanting to survive and not wanting the digital world to be destroyed is also a real feeling for everyone. Digimon have the right to live, not to be denied."

I just want everyone to live, and I don't want my home to be destroyed, this is everyone's purest and purest wish.

"I understand."

Hearing the words of cherubimon, Mina's expression softened considerably.

"I think the vampire beast took the initiative to ask me to help him gain new evolutionary powers, perhaps, he expected that you would entrust me."

"You, who have traded with the Vampire God many times in the past, should have also mentioned that he will fight for the City of Angels in the future. So, in order for him to fight, did you entrust me with another guarantee? ”

Mina, who had long understood the purpose of the other party, said a sharp word, which immediately embarrassed the cherubimon's expression.

"Was it discovered?"

"I just don't want to expose it right away, it's enough that you have that true heart."

Mina smiled mischievously.

"Actually, I'd rather you ask about the connection between the Vampire Beast and me, and our past. As a vampire companion, you're qualified to learn about his past. ”

The cherubimon was pleased that its former disciple had such a good human partner, so it wanted Mina to learn about the past of the vampire.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need to know about his past just yet. If he wants me to find out, the vampire beast will definitely say it himself. ”

Sure enough, it's the best partner, Cherubimon thought to himself.

"Cherubimon, if the Divine Angelmon and the Vampire Demon Beast can successfully protect the City of Angels, I also hope that you will agree to some of my conditions."

At this time, Mina also suddenly put forward a certain condition for it.

"I'll do my best to meet your conditions."

Cherubimon agreed.

"I hope that after all the calamities, in the new century of the digital world, you three angels will be able to build a world of absolute equality. Whether it's light or dark, normal or dark subspecies Digimon, they can live together as equals."

―2―

The sensations in my body have weakened, and there is no reason to continue to linger in my dreams. ** floating, mentally weak, and the distance between the rooms is getting distant.

――Data Transmission Completed――

――Consciousness Transitions to Awakened State--

-- Procedure test, all physical conditions are stable; Conversion, safe end -

"Oh, wake up."

Hearing the voice of the molecular beast, Mina suddenly came back to her senses, and Mina found that her consciousness had returned to the workshop.

"The Vampire Beast has been lifted from its dormant state, and the plan has been very successful."

The Molecular Beast then added, and his tone was full of admiration.

"Thank you, vampire beast. Do you feel uncomfortable in your body? ”

Looking at the cube disappearing and the vampire monster that had long since awakened, Mina asked.

"There is no discomfort at all."

Glancing at the data detection and completion time on the terminal screen, the tone of the vampire monster was still as cold as usual.

The data core has added other information, and the vampire beast can feel new power flowing in its body without any discomfort.

"Mina. Albarea, you have lived up to my expectations, keep this confidence up, and then you will show more talent. ”

The cold tone was more of a recognition and pride for Mina. But when the vampire beast noticed the dark circles under Mina's eyes, and the unusually tired expression, he sighed softly, as if he had been too her.

In the 32 hours she had been manipulating data on her own, Mina hadn't really had any rest. She's just a human with an ordinary physique, and concentrating on work for a long time will only make her body weak.

"However, while you are using your talents, I want you to be able to pay attention to your physical condition many times and not push yourself too hard. Otherwise, just to gain the value of temporary success and put the body at a disadvantage for a long time, it will only be exchanged for more losses. ”

Is this a concern for me? Mina knew from his slightly reproachful tone that he cared about herself.

"That's right, I'm a little tired."

With a light smile, in order to live up to her partner's concern, Mina compromised, after all, it is actually important for the tired body to get a good rest.

"There may be a real combat 'test' soon, so maybe I will force you"

Remembering the cherubimon's commission, Mina tried to convince the vampire beast under the pretext of a combat 'test'.

"It's my intention to 'test' the latest results. So, I don't need to care about cherubimon's commission, my battle has nothing to do with its hopes. ”

As a result, it was immediately noticed by the vampire demonic beast, and Mina showed a wry smile.

"As for the next battle, you just have to keep a normal mindset and don't care too much. I will take everything and win. ”

"Now, I want you to be able to take a break."

"Don't push yourself too hard."

Perhaps concerned about the previous words of the vampire beast, Mina originally wanted to say something. In the end, she gave up, just smiled and said words of concern, and left.

"Don't you want that little girl to bear the physical and mental sensations between partners? You're going to have a tough battle after that. ”

Knowing the burden of the partnership between Digimon and humans, the Molecular Beast laughed wickedly.

'Mind-body sensing' refers to the fact that after a Digimon is severely injured in a tough battle, a small amount of the pain is transferred to the human partner, thereby reducing the burden on the Digimon. Of course, this can only happen if there is a heart and soul between the partners, and the energy of the human partner is very focused. The higher the Digimon's level, the greater the pain humans will feel. Especially this vampire, who always likes to win by deliberately being hurt by enemies, pain is nothing to him at all. But this is different for Mina, once Mina focuses all her energy on her partner, she feels more pain than her other partners.

"My reminder has made it clear that if she persists, the 'punishment' of the pain should also be borne by herself."

Even with the Molecular Beast's 'kind' reminder, the Vampire Beast didn't care, believing that his partner would understand his intentions.

"At least, she wouldn't be stupid to that extent."

"So, you have to behave well and don't live up to her heart for you~~ The new ultimate body is very powerful."

Mina's efforts, the molecular beast also saw it. It's full of anticipation for the latest evolution of Vampire Monsters, and there are endless possibilities between humans and Digimon.
