Chapter Seventy-Three: The Ten Crowns (1)
"Miss Helena, did you find anything during the test?" Yue Chen looked at Helena and asked with a frown. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yes, and a very serious problem." Helena nodded, took out a USB flash drive-like thing from her arms, and plugged it into the computer in front of her.
"Just last night, the U.S. military secretly issued a yellow military alert -- the first case in the United States since the end of World War II -- without disturbing the public's understanding, and after issuing the yellow military alert, the U.S. military sent a large-scale aircraft carrier formation to that area."
"Yellow military alert?" Children like Illya are still in a relatively ignorant state of political and military affairs, so it's normal to not know.
Helena nodded and explained: "Yes, this is something that all military powers have, and once this happens, the military alert will be issued almost when the country is facing an attack by another country or the territory is about to be invaded, and it is generally referred to as a state of combat readiness. ”
"Is such a military alert rare?" Naha asked, looking at Helena.
“………… How rare is it? Even in a terrorist attack of such a heinous nature as 911, the government only characterized it as a disaster, not a "war", and it can be said that since the end of World War II, the United States has hardly had such a formal state of war readiness. Yue Chen said with a frown.
"And then, what happened?" Xiao Meiyan looked at the U.S. Navy on the big screen and kept approaching the target, and asked, she always felt that things were not so simple.
"Ah, yes, it's a big deal, this time we've finally completely intercepted U.S. military intelligence after multiple surveillances - this time the mission is codenamed [Red Dragon], and the goal is to find and annihilate an unknown giant sea creature that can rival the U.S. fleet."
"Unknown giant sea creatures? What's that? Yue Chen looked at Helena and asked a little puzzled.
"I didn't understand it at first, but it wasn't until later, when we saw this last-minute video, that I realized what was going on."
Helena clicked on a video on her computer, which recorded the actions of the aircraft carrier group after entering the target waters.
Everyone held their breath, afraid that they had missed a detail in the image.
At this moment, the picture suddenly vibrated extremely violently, and immediately after, a roar that seemed to be able to shake everyone's soul came from the deep sea!
Then, a huge figure rose from the sea level as if it could cover the sky.
But what really made everyone gasp was not the creature's huge size, but its revealing appearance—a giant beast with seven beast heads slowly emerging from the sea!
The beast was like a leopard, and its feet were like a bear's feet, and its mouth was like that of a lion's, and it had ten horns and seven heads, and it wore ten crowns on its ten horns, and its whole body was covered with blasphemous names.
Helena gently recited a famous passage from the Bible, and continued: "These are the words of the Bible, and this is the record that I thought of the moment I saw this monster......"
Yue Chen frowned and recalled, "In this way, just last night, Guildres seemed to have mentioned that they had woken up something. ”
Helena stared at the clear appearance of the monster in the picture, and slowly spoke: "Yes, the ten-horned seven-headed beast with blasphemous names written all over its body, it can't be wrong, this is the evil of human beings—the beast of six hundred and sixty-six!" ”
However, at this moment, the huge body of this beast suddenly trembled, and the eyes of the seven beast heads looked here in unison!
Yes, even though this is just a past image, everyone present still has a creepy feeling - it feels that this ten-horned seven-headed beast is locking itself through the image, crossing the gap of time.
“――――――――――――!!!!”
Then, the beast roared, and with a violent roar, it shattered the camera that recorded the shocking scene, and the video stopped for a moment, leaving only everyone present who still hadn't come to their senses.
"It's a big trouble......" Yue Chen frowned and said in a heavy tone.
Helena sighed helplessly: "This is a real big trouble, and it can be said that it is no less than a major crisis that people are burning but burning." ”
"Mom...... It's terrifying......" Jack couldn't help but hug Yue Chen tightly, if it was an ordinary thing, even a zombie Jack wouldn't feel afraid, however, Jack, who was almost equivalent to a newborn calf, actually showed real fear in the face of this huge monster.
"It's okay, Jack, everything will pass......" Yue Chen touched Jack's little brain, stared at the screen and muttered to himself, "Moreover, that roar ...... It's the same sound I heard at that time......"
"Hey...... Just kidding, I've never even heard of this kind of thing............" Dongfang Shosuke was in a cold sweat, he seemed to be a little difficult to accept for a moment about this mysterious creature that he had never seen before.
Although he had seen all kinds of stand-in messengers, even the rats with stand-ins, the problem was that this time the monsters and those things that were not at the same level at all, yes, even in front of the man named Kira Yoshikage, he had never thought like this.
"However, if it is just such a monster, it will not be enough to defeat the US Navy." At this moment, the man in white, who was very calm, suddenly said, "If this monster is just an ordinary giant, then it is difficult for me to imagine that the American army will actually lose to such a monster." ”
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, the man in white closed his eyes slightly and nodded at everyone: "Jotaro Kujo, please advise." ”
Helena agreed with Jotaro's point of view, and said slowly: "Yes, you are right, if it is human evil, then it is not only huge, as a human evil, it must have something more powerful, called 'power'. ”
"Power?" Jotaro looked at Helena and couldn't help asking, "Can you tell us more about this?" ”
"Well, let's just let me, the almighty genius, Da Vinci Sauce, explain it!" At this moment, the projection of Leonardo da Vinci suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and he bowed to them, "Hello everyone, the genius Da Vinci sauce that I haven't seen for a long time has once again made its appearance, and it is also time for the Da Vinci class to start!"
"Oh, Miss Leonardo, I'm sorry, I'll trouble you." Helena smiled and nodded to the woman.
"Well, let's get started!" Leonardo da Vinci cleared his throat and began to explain the concept of power, "The so-called power (miracle) is actually a special ability that is different from Code.Cast, Skill, and Noble Phantasm. For example, the change of events, the operation of the flow of time, the founding of the country, and so on, are called forces that can create a world level."
Leonardo da Vinci paused for a moment and continued, "Skill is usually achieved by 'being able to do so through this principle', but power is something like 'just doing it that way because I have the right to do it', just like the absolutely indisputable fact that I am the world's number one all-round genius, it is something that a god or a servant of the same class can naturally have, a very tricky and unreasonable thing."
