Half of Shinjuku Ward has fallen, and Chiyoda Ward and Minato Ward have been completely immersed in the sea.

Li Su drove a small boat dozens of meters above the city, and the square cement buildings in the water were like fruit pieces in jelly, with a dream-like unreality. The rain continued, but the tide intensified, and the difference between the crests and troughs was several stories high. But no matter how strong the waves entered the dinghy, they suddenly calmed down, and the surrounding waves were raging, and the water surface with the dinghy as the center was as calm as a lake. Towering crests push over the sides of the boat, like Poseidon's giant horse in Greek mythology.

"It's a miracle."

Kotono sat on the bow of the boat, a pair of jade feet dangling outside the boat. She occasionally reached through the dust-free area where the rain was dripping, and couldn't help but sigh as she watched the rain run down her fingers and her wrists dry as usual, and when she withdrew her hand without getting wet.

"Which god? You don't want to talk about kappa, do you? I'm so sad. Li Su answered after the helm.

"That's a youkai. I'm talking about Susanoo. ”

"Susanoo? In Japanese mythology, take the life of the man who took the sky and clouds? ”

"Yes. In the Kojiki, the god Izanagi assigned the sea to his rule. According to the analogy of Western mythology that you are familiar with, he is the Poseidon of Japanese mythology. You don't know? ”

"I really don't know this, I've gained knowledge." Li Su was clearly chatting with her, but his attention was not here.

"Why are you distracted, what are you listening to?" Kotono stepped off the bow of the boat and sat down beside him. When they met, she noticed that Li Su was wearing headphones all the time.

"News from the Academy. Now the city of Tokyo has been taken over by us. Li Su took off one earbud and put it in Qin's ear. There seemed to be a meeting on the phone, and she could hear a sunny man giving a speech.

"Allow me to introduce to you the ultimate weapon jointly developed by the Gattuso Institute and the Russian Federal Space Agency, and we give it the code name - damnation!"

EVA synchronized the demo animation on the projector at the right time. After witnessing the destruction of Tokyo by the divine punishment level of the Heavenly Punishment System in the picture, Kotono couldn't help but look up at the sky. But she couldn't see anything, and the thick clouds still covered the whole of Tokyo, like the city-sized spaceship in the science fiction movie "Independence Day."

"Thousands of years have passed, and humans have finally mastered the power equivalent to that of dragons." Li Su also looked up at the sky and sighed.

Dragon-level power? Is this power really supposed to belong to humans? And is it in the hands of a few? Fratricidal rivalry has never been uncommon in the history of mankind. Even if we defeat the dragons, what will the Gattuso family who have mastered this technique use after this? Historically, the Gattuso family has never been a good person.

If the boy who inherited the Sword of the Brave also becomes an evil dragon, how will the remaining villagers live?

If...... The boy was another dragon in the first place, right?

Kotono shuddered, not daring to think about it anymore. There are too many things in her heart, so she subconsciously expresses her worries. "That's ...... Is it really good? ”

Li Su glanced at Qin Nai, who was trembling slightly, and guessed what she was thinking. She reached out and grabbed her shoulders and held her in her arms, and combed her smooth hair with her other hand: "Don't worry, I will protect you." ”

Kotono's trembling stopped. She looked up and met the same dark eyes, as if looking down at a deep dark pool.

"Hmm."

——————————————

"Wait for me here." Li Su patted Qin's head and jumped down from the lighthouse. They had just watched the battle of the three of Ange from the lighthouse, and now they were facing the dragon viper swarm alone. If he goes later, I'm afraid the corpse will be eaten clean.

As for Kotono on the lighthouse, he wasn't worried, something mixed with dragon blood couldn't walk the blade made of the Philosopher's Stone.

With waist-deep water and an equally black outfit, he avoided the sight of everyone on the plane and approached Uesugi Goshi, who had run out of oil. At this time, several tiny dragon vipers had jumped onto Uesugi Yue's back and began to bite and burrow, but Uesugi still gritted his teeth and stubbornly held on to the hurricane of death with the double knives in his hands and the black sun behind him. At the moment when Li Su took him away, the black sun that had lost its support collapsed, and the reverse current of the water covered all the truth. When the tide recedes, it will take away the bones of the corpse and the body of Uesugi Etsu that should have been torn to shredded flesh, leaving nothing behind. After returning to the lighthouse to pack up, they left in the dinghy again.

"Where are we going next?" There wasn't even a hint of sea breeze in the dustless land, and Kotono was bored with a sniper rifle in a daze.

"Well 13. The White King, or rather Susanoo, is there right now. That's where the real final battle will be. Li Su found the right direction, and the dinghy went straight forward in the sea.

"I've wanted to ask from the beginning. How do you know all this so well? Kotono tilted her head, her eyes flashing with curiosity.

"It's simple, intelligence gathering." Li Su took out his phone, and things on the screen began to change. "In the past two weeks, I've invaded over twenty strongholds of the Fierce Oni and three strongholds of the Eight Clans. At the beginning, I didn't find anything on my phone, so I focused on the ghosts. Of course, you can't do this alone, and with EVA's full assistance, Kaguya-hime, whom you trust, is still not qualified in front of her. As he spoke, a large number of files flashed across the screen, and even Kono's eyes could only see some enlarged and bold titles, such as "Rig Lease Agreement", "Eleventh Red Well Positioning Intermediate Report", and "List of Deadpooled Personnel for Drug Trials".

"So the academy is still so ill-prepared? Shouldn't the burrowing bomb have been slapped into Well 13 in your style? Kotono remembered the mission records of the Executive Department that she had seen during her training at the academy.

"No way, on the one hand, what I collect is actually peripheral data and then guess the answers based on the data, and the real core data has never been collected. For example, the No. 13 water storage well is a place where the Eight Families of Snake Qi and the Fierce Demons are all vying for, and the Fierce Demons even used the secret hole card of the Kanto Branch, which shows that it is not simple. As for the artificial island, it was because I saw a stack of "AF Guidance Report" presented in days in the data, and after EVA deciphered the data, I found that the coordinates inside had been changing in the sea, and the date was shortly after the Longyuan Project, so I guessed that AF was a corpse. However, EVA believes that there is no way to control the corpse guard, and that the ships passing through the waters of Japan are all passing normally, and there is no record of being attacked by unknown creatures, so she believes that AF is a number of warships with fierce ghosts. And AF avoids radar search through the guidance of the Ghost Headquarters, and always stays in everyone's blind spot. She thought that if they did attack, they would report the terrorist attack to the US government and be handled by the Seventh Fleet, but she guessed wrong. Anyway, the rest of the place is similar, but there are those I guessed right and there are those she guessed right. Li Su explained.

"Oh." Kotono nodded, and suddenly her eyes widened: "But you haven't been found out the whole time, including the activities in the city, that is...... In two weeks, you cut through our and the Devils' intelligence network at the same time? ”

"Almost." Li Su nodded.

"Uh...... Anyway, this is our territory, yes......" Kotono was a little frustrated, as a local, not only was he played around by his rival, but he was also frustrated by an outsider who came and went freely.

Li Su waited for a while, but Qin Nai didn't ask any more questions, and he began to concentrate on driving the dinghy.

There were other things he didn't say. For example, he deliberately guessed a part of the information, such as he guided EVA's thinking. In another example, he advanced the fight of the three of Angers by ninety minutes through advance notification, which gave him the opportunity to save people on both sides at the same time.

Let him bury these things in his heart forever.
