So his initial guess was indeed correct. At this very moment, Camilla's human form was present in the base. His initial line of reasoning was indeed accurate: giants are connected. Just like him, he was a giant. Although Wumaquan and the others didn't know his identity, they were somehow connected. Although this wasn't a positive connection, it sufficiently demonstrated that his guess was correct—that all people are connected, to varying degrees.

Giants are attracted to each other!

Masaki Keigo glanced at Kijima Megumi's retreating figure. Could she be her? From her words just now, Kijima Megumi spoke with poise and grace, appearing as someone with inner strength. It might very well be Kijima Megumi.

"What are you talking about?" Megumi asked curiously as she walked in front, listening to Izumi Wuma and Keigo Masaki whispering behind her.

"TpC is great, I think this place is pretty good." Wumaquan gave a thumbs up.

Masaki Keigo glanced at Wuma Izumi, then at Kijima Megumi, and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's what I think too. Compared to TPC, I have many companies and businesses, but they are far inferior. After coming to TPC this time, I went back to the company and have already figured out how to restructure it."

"You flatter me." Captain Megumi smiled.

.........................

In the Crow People's Empire.

Daigo was mingling among a large group of crows, puzzled.

The crow people are still crow people after all. One second they're all smiles and friendly, the next they see an alien and immediately launch a fierce attack, giving him no chance to explain. He's been killing people for so long, but it feels like they can't be killed off. The crow people always seem to keep coming, and he's getting tired of fighting them.

"No wonder they sent me here for special training; it's practically a natural killing field." Daigo looked up at the sky, wondering if Wuma Izumi and Seven were watching him from beyond the heavens at this very moment.

At this point, Daigo couldn't help but wave his hand towards the sky and shout, "Hey, can you hear me?"

After several shouts and wavings, there was still no response, which made Daigo fall into deep thought. Were they really still watching him outside? So much time had passed; could they have gone to eat or sleep in the meantime? But then he thought about it again, and it seemed quite normal.

Man is made of iron, food is steel; you'll get hungry if you skip a meal. It's impossible to watch over him every second; he needs rest. But then he thought, leaving him here unattended, and Daigo felt a pang of sadness. What if he accidentally died here? Wouldn't no one know for a long time? Special training truly lives up to its name; lives are at stake at any moment, and even the remains are left unclaimed.

"I wonder what Wuma and Seven are doing right now." Daigo sighed. He wondered when he would be able to get out of here. Did they intend to kill all the crow people here? That would be too terrifying.

"Sir, would you like to learn about our God, the Red Pass Demon?" Just as Daigo was pondering this, a new round of evangelism by the Crow People began.

Although most of them were killed by Tiga after chasing him, a small number of Crow People still persisted in distributing leaflets to spread their sect's beliefs. This was their spiritual pillar, their last hope for survival. Without this pillar, they didn't know how long they could hold on, and perhaps they would have committed suicide at any moment.

Dagu: "..."

With a dark expression, he took the leaflet from the crow-man.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the red passerby drawn on the flyer. It looked vaguely familiar. He looked again, then again… Wow… isn't that Seven?

Daigo blinked, flipping through the flyer over and over. It did indeed resemble Seven, and also Seven X. The difference between Seven and Seven X lay in their forms; one had abs, the other didn't. Daigo could distinguish between Seven and Seven X. Izumi Wuma had once told him that Seven was Seven, while Seven X was a transformation formed by Izumi Wuma and Seven merging.

"Sir, perhaps you've become interested in our faith and our God? If you're interested, why don't you come with me to our shrine and we can have a good chat and discuss your life ideals?" The crow-man handing out flyers saw that Daigo hadn't decisively refused, and even looked at the flyers again and again, so he felt that Daigo might be interested in joining their faith, and immediately made further attempts to guide him.

Daigo thought for a moment, then nodded instead of refusing, deciding to go and take a look. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but anyway, he was just idling around here, killing crow people and resting disguised as one. With nothing else to do, he might as well go and see what was going on to pass the time.

Seeing that Daigo agreed, the crow man handing out the flyers immediately put away all the flyers in his hand and led Daigo towards their sect's base. In this day and age, it was already extremely difficult to recruit a new follower. After all, various sects were rampant in the crow empire, and almost every crow man had his own faith, making it very difficult to recruit a new follower.

With Daigo, a Protestant, by our side, we should cherish this opportunity. Thinking this, the crow-man leading the way hopped and skipped along. Daigo followed behind, looking left and right.

P.S.: Requesting votes, rewards, and even blades (a metaphor for threats/resources).

I've figured it out. It must be from not getting enough sleep. I go to bed around 12:00 or 1:00 AM and wake up around 8:00 or 9:00 AM. I really need to try to go to bed around 8:00 or 9:00 PM and wake up around 8:00 or 9:00 AM.

Healthy living starts with me, say no to staying up late!

Chapter 186 Sphia Makes Her Debut

The Red Pass Demonic Cult Hall. Due to the existence of Delusional Seven X, the Red Pass Demonic Cult is extremely large. The cult itself is already very large, and because of Seven's actions, many Crow people have come to believe in the Red Pass Demonic Cult. In addition, the Delusional Seven X was born by chance, which led to even more people becoming believers in the cult.

Daigo followed behind, led to a shrine. Although many of the Crowmen outside were engaged in fierce fighting and hunting down the Great Power, a considerable number of Crowmen remained here, choosing to devoutly worship, suppressing their murderous intent, and hoping that their god would not be angry and would grant them miracles, allowing them to obtain what they desired. Naturally, what the Crowmen wanted was not good. While appearing to be devoutly worshipping, their bloodlust was no less than that of the Crowmen outside; what they prayed for was also endless slaughter and enslavement.

This was something that Delusional Seven X received daily, and he understood it perfectly. He also realized that his temperament—his violent nature—stemmed from the beliefs of these Crow People, which in turn influenced his personality. Having understood this, Delusional Seven X didn't try to change; he simply ignored the Crow People's prayers. Their devout beliefs were their business; what did they have to do with Delusional Seven X?

Seven X, imagining himself as they led Daigo step by step towards his lair, felt a pang of unease. He wondered if Daigo, through this experience, discovered something, and realized he was still alive.

Seven X thought about it and figured that Daigo would know if he did, and even if he did, he would probably tell Wuma Izumi. And who was Wuma Izumi? He was the real person in charge behind the Holy Church.

His true strength is unknown; all that is known is that he is very strong. Someone capable of hiding behind the scenes and orchestrating such a grand scheme must possess ambitions far exceeding those of ordinary people. Moreover, he outwardly pretends to be a Giant of Light, mingling with this group of Giants of Light, posing as a champion of justice, while appearing as someone who slacks off and acts lazy, all to mislead people and lower their guard.

The thought of Seven X is chilling. Such a cunning, powerful, and well-connected individual, yet so treacherous and cunning—who could possibly outmaneuver him?

Fortunately, he chose to join the cause of justice.

If he couldn't win, he'd join. As a special envoy of the Holy Church, he could benefit from Wumaquan's influence. Although he had been killed once before, the delusional Seven X didn't care; as a human being, who couldn't die? The experience of dying and being resurrected didn't add any more experience to his life.

So Seven X, who was delusional, quietly watched Daigo as he entered the cult.

................

Daigo looked at the Red Pass Demons, the cult that fantasized about Seven X.

He looked at the statue in the very center. It was a statue erected by the Crow People for the Delusion Seven X. Although they had never seen the true face of the Delusion Seven X, they could carve the statue based on the heroic posture that Seven had displayed when he made his move.

Daigo felt there was something different about Seven; at least Seven didn't look as violent...maybe. Daigo suddenly thought of Seven X, with his incredibly muscular physique and ruthless fighting style. Enemies who imagined Seven X rarely lasted more than three minutes. Often, they were even killed in a matter of seconds.

Daigo fell into deep thought. Could it be that this so-called Red Pass Demon Cult truly worships Seven and Wuma Izumi? Daigo guessed that the Crow People's predicament here was inextricably linked to Seven and Wuma Izumi, and the fact that some of them worshipped them proved that the Crow People had been defeated and subjugated. So, erecting the statues meant they had directly chosen to defect to the enemy.

Daigo didn't suspect that it was Seven X. After all, he had personally witnessed Seven X being killed by Seven X, and this was the place where Seven and Wuma Izumi had given him special training. Surely Seven X couldn't have been cultivated by Wuma Izumi and Seven, could he?

"Come, come, have some water, and let our leader tell you all about the deeds of the Red Pass Demon Lord."

While Daigo was still pondering, a Crowman brought him tea and water, behaving very politely. It seems that their internal relations are relatively harmonious, at least when there are no conflicts.

Unlike the life-or-death struggles outside, there are also large-scale battles among the Crow people.

"Thank you." Daigo politely accepted the tea, drank it all in one gulp, and then saw a crow-man with scarlet eyes walking towards him, carrying a red scripture. This seemed to be the cult leader the crows spoke of.

"Newcomer, come, sit down. Let me explain things to you properly, Lord Red Pass Demon." The cult leader pulled Daigo to sit down and said slowly.

Daigo blinked and saw that the cult leader had brought him another cup of tea. This time, he didn't drink it all; he hadn't come here to drink tea. This time, he held the tea in his hands and listened carefully. The leader of the Red Pass Demon Cult recounted the deeds of the Red Pass Demon, constantly instilling in him the idea that the Red Pass Demon was incredibly powerful.

Daigo listened and then fell into other thoughts. Based on his experience in the Crow Empire, he realized that it was not an indigenous civilization, but a technologically advanced empire. He was surprised to find such a strong religious community within it, which seemed out of character for a technologically advanced empire.

Moreover, he didn't see any scientists or high-ranking officials; it seemed this technological empire was crumbling. This made Daigo wonder if Wuma Quan and Seven had already eliminated the empire's higher-ups before his special training, which was why they dared to let him in for training. If the empire's higher-ups still existed, where would they be? Things were already in such chaos, and the higher-ups hadn't intervened. Could it be that they were secretly plotting something, and Wuma Quan and Seven had conspired to send him here to sabotage the empire's plans while he underwent special training?

..............

The headquarters of the Emperor Organization.

After handling the basic matters, Miko Sato left the headquarters.

Originally, headquarters intended for both managers to come together, but due to TPC's plans, only one manager was allowed to come. So, Sato Miriko arrived first.

She stretched in the bright sunshine.

I glanced down at the time on my wristwatch. Noon had passed; it was the afternoon, the hottest time of day during the pandemic. Fortunately, it wasn't summer yet, so even at the hottest time of day, it wasn't very hot, just a bit stuffy.

Sato Miriko originally wanted to go to the branch office and then go home, but after thinking about it, she realized that she hadn't been home for many days. She had been staying at the base all these days, taking care of all her needs there.

It's time to go home and visit; I can't stay at the base all the time. As Wumaquan often says, "There's no place as comfortable as your own doghouse." There's definitely some truth to that.

Miriko Sato came to the roadside and waved to call a taxi to go back.

Suddenly, a circus troupe emerged from a vehicle. There was even a monster inside. It was Durban, a small monster capable of suppressing one of the abilities of the otherworldly demon, Enemina. After the incident at Obik Manor, they left the manor and traveled around performing to earn money.

Obik gave them a lot of money, enough to let them rest for a long time, but the leader was an ambitious person. He didn't think that making some money was enough to make them relax. At most, he would take the members out for a nice meal, and then they would have to get back to work.

Their initial goal in starting the circus wasn't just to make a living, but to expand the circus and perform throughout the country. Although this goal seems incredible and impossible at this stage, the ringmaster is confident that with hard work, they will definitely achieve something.

"Here we are, everyone! Please watch our circus performance. Don't miss it!" After quickly setting up the stage, they went on stage to begin their circus performance.

Sato Miriko's initial intention to leave faded, and she went over to find a small red chair to sit down. This was a chair that the circus had brought out and placed here so that everyone could sit and watch their circus performance.

The circus performance wasn't particularly spectacular; it was merely decent. However, the presence of Durban in the circus was a draw, attracting quite a few newcomers to stop and watch.

Miriko Sato watched the circus performance for a while from the audience, but then her attention was entirely focused on Durban.

Some might think that Durban isn't a monster, but rather someone dressed up in a monster costume, but Miriko Sato is no ordinary person. She immediately noticed Durban's unusual nature and recognized him as a little monster.

She had heard about the events at Obic Manor before. She had paid attention to them, but because Durban was a monster, it was obstructed and covered up by some people with ulterior motives, so Durban was not mentioned in the reports, which reduced some of the trouble for Durban. Therefore, Sato Miriko did not know that Durban had existed at Obic Manor before.

"What kind of ability will it be? Will it be considered a monster or a Titan?" Sato Miriko watched from below the stage, wondering to herself.

She planned to approach the circus after their performance. How could anyone allow a little monster to roam freely in a circus?

Sato Miriko resting her chin on her hand, "Don't you even register your information?"

Lost in thought, Miko Sato looked up and saw several mysterious spherical objects flying across the sky.

It flew over for a short while and then flew back, as if it had found some target.

Sato Miriko raised an eyebrow, thinking that this was not a good thing.

She had never seen it before.

The next second, all the mysterious spheres rushed towards Durban. Durban, seeing the mysterious spheres rushing towards him, sensed the danger and waved his hands frantically, trying to run away.

However, it was nowhere near as fast as the mysterious sphere, and its body was immediately covered by the mysterious sphere.

"Durban!" The circus members panicked immediately. They didn't see Durban as a monster; they saw him as family and friends. They rushed forward and grabbed at the mysterious spheres, trying to pull them away. However, after attaching themselves to Durban's body, the spheres became one with him.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't remove these mysterious spheres from Durban's body.

They could only watch helplessly as these mysterious spheres transformed into an incredibly hard shell that covered Durban's body, and Durban's temperament changed as a result, becoming manipulated by these mysterious spheres.

With just a single step, he sent all the surrounding circus members flying.

Durban is no longer what it used to be. Now it looks somewhat ferocious, like a demon crawling out of hell. Its outer shell is made of mysterious spheres and is very aggressive. Many sharp spikes surround its body. If an ordinary person's flesh and blood comes into contact with it, they will probably be easily pierced.

The pale yellow eyes turned into eyes that emitted a scarlet light, making them look terrifying.

Miriko Sato frowned: "What is this thing? Can it possess a living being and change its state?"

She didn't recognize Sphia, but if Wumaquan were here, he would recognize her at a glance.

People at the scene realized something was wrong and scattered and fled.

Upon seeing this, the controlled Durban decisively unleashed beams of light from its two large horns to attack the people.

People became even more panicked, screaming incessantly... the scene instantly descended into chaos.

Instead of leaving immediately, Miko Sato stayed behind to continue observing the situation in Durban.

They also called the Victory Team to tell them that a monster had appeared.

Miko Sato wasn't carrying any weapons, so the best approach would be to have a professional team handle the situation.

The members of the Emperor Organization's branch are located far away and all have their own matters to attend to, so the Armed Forces can't arrive immediately. The most appropriate course of action is to notify the Victory Team.
