Final Trial of Mankind

"Do you remember the bombings in Kyoto this spring?"

"……Hey?"

"The Rome train accident four years ago, the disappearance of cities in China, the bombing of the submarine tunnel in Manhattan, and, farther away, the fire in Sydney."

"Could it be that...these are all done by the Fourth True Ancestor?"

Yukina's expression was a little convulsive.

What the elders said as if nothing had happened was a large-scale vicious terrorist incident that caused a large number of casualties. No matter what, it was reported that the culprit was unknown, but if it really had something to do with the true ancestor, then it was only this level of damage It can be called luck.

"The evidence of all circumstances points to the existence of the Fourth True Ancestor." Said the original woman to the blue-faced Yukina.

"They are bound to appear at a turning point in history, bringing massacre and great destruction to the world, but the problem is not just that. The existence of the Fourth Progenitor disrupted the order of the world. Do you know the reason for this?"

"Yes." Yukina nodded affirmatively.

Vampires with the racial characteristic of blood-sucking and higher knowledge are not usually hostile to humans. Most of them like to blend into human society to survive, and they have carefully avoided behaviors that are hostile to humans.

Moreover, the governments of various countries and the true ancestors have made treaties prohibiting indiscriminate blood-sucking. On the surface, peaceful coexistence has been achieved, but this is actually established under the extremely delicate balance of power relations between the three empires of the night.

"The True Ancestors agreed to conclude the Sanctuary Treaty because the True Ancestors have restrained each other over the past few decades. They are usually afraid of True Ancestors other than themselves, so they have no energy left to fight against humans. "

"Yes."

"However, if a fourth primogenitor with the same power as them appears, this balance will undoubtedly be disrupted, and in the worst case, there may even be a large-scale war that will sweep mankind into it."

"Have you already known the whereabouts of the Fourth Primogenitor?"

Yukina asked nervously, for some reason, she had a very nasty premonition.

"Well, it hasn't been confirmed yet, but it's basically right!"

"Where is he?"

"Itogami City, Tokyo - the 'Demon Special Zone' of the artificial island"

The woman's words made Xuecai speechless for a moment.

"The Fourth Primogenitor is in Japan?"

"This is the reason why I called you here today, Himeira Yukina. In the name of the Lion King's organization 'Three Sages', I order you to monitor the Fourth Primogenitor." The woman announced quietly in an indisputable tone.

"I... monitor the Fourth Primogenitor?"

"That's right, and when you judge that the surveillance object is a dangerous existence, you have to try your best to kill it."

"Erase...?"

The shaken Yukina didn't know what to say.

There is not only the fear of the Fourth True Ancestor, but also the anxiety about whether he is competent when he is ordered in danger.

Although she is not tired of her previous practice, Yukina is just a trainee, and she is not so presumptuous that she can defeat the Fourth True Ancestor by herself.

In any case, the True Ancestor is a genuine monster that can rival the combat power of a country's army.

However, if no one does it, sooner or later many people will suffer disaster.

This should be the thoughts of people who have a strong sense of justice when the country rises and falls, and everyone is responsible.

"Catch it, Himeira Yukina..."

The woman handed something out from the gap in the bamboo curtain, and in the light of the bonfire, a silver gun emerged from the darkness.Yukina knows this name.

"This is……"

"Seven-style assault demon machine gun 'SchneeVal-Tour (to be verified...)', inscribed as 'Xuexia Wolf'!"

You know—the woman's question, Yukina nodded vaguely.

The seven-type assault demon machine gun is a weapon developed by the Lion King Agency to fight against demons with special abilities. The gun tip made with high metal refining technology has a streamlined outline that resembles the latest fighter jet, just like the name "machine gun".

However, since the core of the weapon is an ancient treasure gun, it cannot be mass-produced. It is said that there are only 3 of them in the world. Anyway, it is undoubtedly the strongest in personal level use, and the secret weapon of the Lion King mechanism. .

"This...you want to give it to me?" Yukina asked with an unbelievable expression as she caught the gun handed to her.

But the woman sighed heavily instead.

"Using the true ancestor as the opponent, I originally wanted to give you stronger equipment, but now this is the strongest war god equipment we can prepare. Are you willing to accept it?"

"Yes, of course...but..." Yukina said this with a puzzled expression.

What was handed out from the gap in the bamboo curtain was not only the gun, but also a plastic bag wrapped in a new set of new uniforms neatly stacked. The inside was based on white and water colors, and the sailor's lapel jacket and Pleated skirt.It seems to be a junior high school girl's summer uniform.

"That, what is this?"

"The uniform is prepared according to your height."

"That... But, why do you want to wear a uniform?"

"Because your surveillance targets are the students of the uniform school."

"Ah?" Yukina didn't know what to say to herself at all, and fell into a slight confusion, "Huh? The surveillance target... the fourth primogenitor is, a student? Huh?"

"Group B of the first year of private Caihai Academy Higher Division, attendance No. 1, this is the current identity of the 'Fourth Prime Ancestor' Akatsuki Kojou, but there is no one in the Lion King organization who can peacefully contact him, except for one person Other than you, Himeira Yukina."

"Xiao Gucheng...the person in this photo is the Fourth Primogenitor...? Eh?" Yukina stared at the photo thrown on the floor with wide eyes.

Through the bamboo curtain came the wry smile of the 'Three Saints', and now, Yukina finally understands why she, an immature sword shaman, was chosen to do such an important task.

While Yukina was shocked, another butterfly appeared from the gap in the bamboo curtain, and under Yukina's gaze, it turned into a photo again.

On it is a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old. Unlike the fourth primogenitor who didn't notice at all, this young man noticed the person taking the photo and looked over. Maybe it was an illusion, those eyes were inexplicable It gave people a feeling of depression, and being stared at by those eyes without any emotion made people feel an inexplicable sense of panic.

Moreover, no matter from which angle you look at it, the boy's eyes seem to be fixed on him, as if he was joking.

"This is……"

"His name is Muchen Aziz Dahaka, and he is a national attacking magician." A woman's voice introduced the name of the person in the photo to Yukina.

"Why do you want to point out this person in particular?"

"He fought against the Fourth True Ancestor last year. Although the Fourth True Ancestor was not perfect, he still won."

Hearing this, Yukina gasped. She went to face the almost mortal True Ancestor. Even if she was incomplete, she couldn't possibly be an opponent she could handle. The boy was crushed.

"Now he also lives in Isogami Island, and almost handles half of the events in Isogami Island by himself, so if you meet him, be careful, and don't do it unless it is absolutely necessary. Although, with his character, he is not very Maybe it’s enough to shoot you, but you have to be careful, and treat him at the same level as [The Witch of the Void].”

"understood."

"Okay, let me order again, Himeira Yukina, you have to do your best to get close to him and monitor his movements. The transfer to Saikai Academy has been completed—that's it."

After speaking one-sidedly on the other side of the bamboo curtain, the aura of the elders disappeared.

Yukina, who was the only one left in the hall, even forgot to breathe, just staring blankly at the gun in her hand.

The fourth true ancestor.

Transferring, contacting, monitoring, obliterating.

【Could it be that I have been involved in quite a troublesome matter? 】Thinking of Yukina here, he sighed softly unconsciously.

For her who is not good at divination, this premonition has finally come true, and she knows that this is a matter of the future.

032 sad life

In a world deprived of color, Mu Chen sighed helplessly as he looked at his right arm that was still in a burst state.

The tempering of spiritual power has been completed long ago. Now, not only has his spiritual power perfectly fused with the previous power attributes, but the purity has also returned to the level before the fusion. The reason why he didn't send his clone out is because he didn't Satisfied with his current strength, he turned to research new skills.

Originally thought that after eating the energy manipulation ability brought by the fruit of the god tree and the physical restraint disappeared, his control over all his powers including abilities had increased by several levels. It's a little difficult but not too difficult, but the result made him almost vomit three liters of blood.

What is easy to know but difficult to do, he understood it again today.

During the first experiment, because he was too confident, relying on his immortality and time ability, he accidentally blew himself up, and his whole body almost exploded into a cloud of blood.

You know, as long as his current body is not some magical weapon (above the level of the master's artifact), it is basically impossible to injure his body, and it is considered invulnerable, but even so, his body is blasted from the body The strength broke the flesh in one breath, but fortunately, even if he used the time stop, it stopped together with his own time, and then reversed the time to avoid the embarrassment of rebirth of a flesh.

Afterwards, he was more careful, and did not use this move all over his body, which he wanted to create, but the result was that he used it several times and exploded several times. For example, this time his arms were all broken into pieces except for the bones. It directly became a pile of powder.

Throwing a time countercurrent on his arm that was basically gone, Mu Chen sighed again as he watched the arm recovering gradually.

He has tried to practice a hundred times, but the result is that he exploded a few times after practicing, as if a time bomb was stuffed inside his body, and he died miserably anyway.

Even though he summed up countless times after failing, the result was still the same.

"Obviously there was nothing wrong with using the Galaxy Sacred Sword! What I'm using now is just a bit of power, and I exploded myself into pieces." Mu Chen rubbed his forehead, "It seems that this move is indeed a little It is special, and now it has once again proved that the ultimate move of the Saint Seiya, especially the power of the essence of Gemini is still very powerful."

That's right, this time Mu Chen didn't simply output the power of the Galaxy Starburst in one go, but detonated it in his body. That kind of power is not simply condensing the small universe in the body and changing the release method of the big move in one go. out comparable.

The inside of the body of the creature itself is weaker than the body surface, and now it uses the most powerful Galaxy Starburst, which is considered the most powerful among the fighting skills of the Golden Saint Seiya, to detonate in one go, if he doesn't explode, he will be a ghost up.

Although his energy control is very powerful, it is not so easy to control the power enough to shatter the galaxy in one breath. Even with his ability, it is difficult to do it.

"Ha~~~ That vampire is really awesome, I can't do it, at least, I can't do it for the time being."

Knowing that he couldn't complete this new skill in a short time, Mu Chen didn't have to be paranoid to continue doing it. With his current mentality, it would only affect the accuracy of his explosive power manipulation, and it would probably be even worse. bad.

"Let's go out and relax. It's probably not efficient to continue like this." After the time-deprived world was restored to its original state, Mu Chen stood up and moved his body that had just been blown to pieces, " It's almost time to recycle it."

The next moment, two cracks after the shattered mirror appeared beside Mu Chen, and then several figures exactly like Mu Chen came out.

Then, those figures approached Mu Chen's body, and finally overlapped together.

For a moment, really only for a moment, with Mu Chen as the center, the picture suddenly distorted, as if looking at something through a flame, the space seemed to expand a bit, as if more than [-] people were stuffed into a sealed space in one breath. Its volume is the same as anything else.

"Ha~~~, it feels so good to increase my strength!"

Feeling the sense of omnipotence brought about by the expansion of the spiritual status, Mu Chen sighed, and then took a few deep breaths, suppressing the inflated feeling of arrogance after the increase in strength, or the illusion.

"It seems that the avatar has accumulated a lot of power in the submarine volcano!"

Years of accumulation made Mu Chen feel a substantial improvement.

"Let's go out for a stroll!"

Throwing a few avatars into another dimension again, Mu Chen no longer used the avatars to go out instead of himself this time, but let the deity go out.

Rest is also very important, combining work and rest, not to mention the mental aspect, of course the physical aspect also needs rest, and relaxation is the kingly way.

It has been a long time since the main body has gone out for a breath of fresh air, and it is not bad to go out for a long time.
