Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

However, they didn't see a single person, let alone Oikawa Yukio; it was as if he had vanished into thin air in this vast forest.

Bai Yu stopped in his tracks. He was now certain that Oikawa Yukio had already run away.

The operation failed completely; they neither eliminated the scourge nor obtained the data on the vampire beast within him.

However, it wasn't all without gains.

Bai Yu glanced at the [Arakne Beast Full Bottle] and [Iron Chicken Beast Dial] in the system space; the collection progress of the Twelve Divine Generals had taken another step forward.

Bai Yu said to Jian Liang behind him, "Let's go back, he's already far away."

Jianliang nodded, without objection.

Continuing to search would only be a waste of time.

The two people and the beast returned the way they came.

When they returned to the small building, the driver and surveillance personnel were anxiously waiting there.

Seeing Bai Yu and Jian Liang return safely, the driver visibly relaxed and quickly greeted them, "Mr. Bai Yu, you're finally back!"

Although Bai Yu was young, the driver dared not be disrespectful in any way.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, his tone somewhat hurried: "Chief Yamaki just called, saying that a large amount of power has inexplicably been lost at a hydroelectric station not far from here. They suspect that a Digimon is causing the problem and would like you to go and check on the situation after you finish dealing with things here."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu shook his head and said, "No need. I know what happened with the electricity. It was indeed Digimon that did it, but I've already taken care of it."

Then, changing the subject, his expression became serious: "The more important thing now is Oikawa Yukio, he's run away."

"Tell Chief Yamaki immediately to mobilize manpower to search for Oikawa Yukio's whereabouts throughout the city. We must find him!"

The driver was taken aback by Bai Yu's words, clearly unable to immediately process the amount of information.

However, he quickly realized what was happening and nodded emphatically: "Okay! I'll call the room manager right away to report!"

As he spoke, he took out his phone and dialed Yamaki Mitsuo's number.

Chapter 112: Enlighten, swipe a card, and speed up Guilmon.

A moment later, the driver hung up the phone and turned to Bai Yu with a solemn expression: "Mr. Bai Yu, I have relayed the situation and your words to Chief Yamaki."

"The chief wants you and Mr. Kenryo to go back and rest first. He will make arrangements immediately for the search for Yukio Oikawa."

Bai Yu removed his armor, reverting to his original appearance, and then nodded.

"Let's go." He called to Jianliang, then took the lead and walked towards the car.

Jianliang and Big Ear Beast followed closely behind, and the surveillance personnel also caught up.

The targets they were supposed to monitor had all disappeared, so there was no point in them staying any longer.

The group got into the car, the engine started, and they drove smoothly away from this remote suburb.

Shortly after they left, deep in the forest, in a winding river, a head suddenly emerged from the water.

"Whoosh—"

The sound of water filled the air as Yukio Oikawa, soaked to the bone, scrambled awkwardly ashore.

He was dripping wet, his hair was a mess and stuck to his face, he looked extremely disheveled.

In order to evade capture, he plunged into the river and let the swift current carry him downstream, thus narrowly escaping Bai Yu and Jian Liang's search.

Yukio Oikawa collapsed onto the messy ground, his chest heaving as he gasped for breath.

A moment later, he gritted his teeth and slammed his fist hard on the muddy ground beside him.

"Who exactly is that brat?!"

"How did he know who I am! Who! Who betrayed me!"

The vicious growl was filled with resentment and bitterness.

Even if he racked his brains, he was destined not to come up with the correct answer to this question.

After resting for a while, Yukio Oikawa felt that he had regained some strength.

Instead of leaving the forest, he struggled to his feet and walked deeper into the woods, eventually finding a place hidden by dense bushes where he temporarily took refuge.

He needs to wait for the Arakne beast to come to him.

At this point, Yukio Oikawa's thoughts gradually calmed down.

He began to recall the Digimon that had suddenly appeared earlier, the one that looked exactly like a rooster…

"That looks like... a lackey of the Four Holy Beasts?" he muttered to himself, his brows furrowing tightly.

He was no stranger to the Twelve Divine Generals.

He saw it very clearly: after the iron chicken appeared, it completely ignored him and charged straight at the kid chasing him, and a conflict broke out between the two.

How come the lackeys of the Four Holy Beasts are fighting with a human child?

"It seems something happened that I don't know about."

A thoughtful look crossed Oikawa Yukio's eyes.

He is now merely a parasite unable to detach from this human body, and his ability to gather intelligence about the outside world is almost zero.

Time passed second by second, and the sky grew completely dark.

The forest was filled with the chirping of insects, and a chilly breeze swept through the air.

Yukio Oikawa remained on guard, but the Arakne Beast had yet to appear, forcing him to confront a reality.

The Arakne beast has most likely been killed.

He had finally managed to get such a capable subordinate, but before he could even begin any plans, it was all gone.

"No, it seems I have to contact them again." Yukio Oikawa secretly made up his mind.

……

Two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in the park, in the secret base where Qi Ren was established, which was also the unfinished toilet.

Qi Ren looked at Bai Yu with a puzzled expression: "Brother Bai Yu, do we really have to do this? But why?"

Qi Ren really didn't understand. Why did Bai Yu suddenly want them to dig deeper?

Although this secret base is a bit small, he has never thought about expanding it, especially expanding it underground.

Bai Yu looked at Qi Ren expressionlessly: "I want to find treasure, is that not allowed? Let Guilmon do it. If they dig up any treasure, I'll give you half."

Qi Ren wasn't blinded by the word "baby." Instead, he lowered his head and muttered in a very low voice, "What baby? Brother Bai Yu, you're definitely lying to me."

Although Qi Ren spoke softly, Bai Yu still heard him clearly. He simply rolled up his sleeves and said, "If you guys aren't going to dig, then I'll do it myself."

"Don't blame me if I accidentally collapse this toilet."

Upon hearing Bai Yu's words, Qi Ren became anxious.

He didn't even want to dig, let alone accept a collapse.

There was no other way, Qiren could only retreat and do the next best thing: "Brother Bai Yu, I don't want you to take action anymore, let Guilmon do it."

Qi Ren turned to look at Guilmon beside him and pointed to the ground beneath his feet: "Gilmon, dig this hole here."

For Guilmon, Kaito's words are absolute commands.

When asked to dig a hole, it didn't utter a single word of nonsense. It waved its powerful front paws and began to dig at the ground beneath its feet.

stab-

The ground was easily torn apart like tofu by the guild beast's sharp claws, with dirt and gravel flying everywhere.

Guilmon's digging skills were indeed impressive; in just a short while, a smudge appeared on the ground.

But Bai Yu, watching from the side, still felt that the speed was a bit slow.

He crossed his arms and gestured towards Qiren with his lip: "Qiren, swipe your card to speed up Guilmon."

Qi Ren responded somewhat helplessly, "Oh..."

Qi Ren took out his card box from his pocket, poured out a thick stack of digital cards, rummaged through them for a while, and finally picked out one.

He slowly brought the card to the arc light machine and swiped it lightly.

"Card swap! Excavation Beast - Diamond Impact!"

A stream of data shot out from the Arc Light Machine and entered the body of the Gilmon.

Guilmon's claws, which were digging at the ground, were instantly covered by a layer of metallic luster and quickly transformed into two high-speed spinning metal drills.

"Gilmon, keep digging with this!" the angel commanded.

Guilmon looked at the novel drills, let out an excited growl, and then plunged the drills into the ground.

buzzing-

A motor-like roar rang out, and the soil was rapidly stirred and thrown out, making the digging more than ten times faster than digging with claws.

Bai Yu looked at the scene before him and nodded in satisfaction.

He wasn't digging this hole just because he had nothing better to do.

He is preparing for the next stage of his journey—a real adventure in the digital world!

Since his transmigration, Bai Yu has not had a clear long-term goal other than collecting data on Digimon.

Venturing into the digital world will be one of the things he plans to focus on next.

After all, the digital world is the main theme of this world, so how can we not experience it firsthand?

However, to be honest, although the digital world may seem close, the actual opportunities to go there are not many.

For devices like the first and fourth generations, the opportunity to enter the digital world is completely unattainable.

They were all summoned passively, and even if Bai Yu had been right next to them, they would never have been able to catch that "bus".

Because there was no seat reserved for him on that "vehicle".

But this time, Qi Ren and his team are different.

This time, I'm voluntarily venturing into the digital world; I'm open to everyone.

In the original story, trainers like Keito and Ruki could go, and ordinary children like Hirokazu and Kenta, who weren't trainers at the time, could also go.

Bai Yu is now having Guilmon dig a tunnel so that it can dig out the "intersection node" that leads to the Digital World in the original storyline ahead of time.

After dealing with the remaining twelve divine generals who had wandered into the real world, Bai Yu can then consider setting off.

If we don't seize this opportunity, we'll have to wait until the time when Dafu and the others get to go into the digital world.

At that time, it was easy to go to the digital world. As long as you had a D3 Drone, you could open the door to digital anytime, anywhere.

Chapter 113: You brats, you've finally shown up with your Digimon!

"Buzz!"

The ear-piercing roar echoed in the small building, making people's eardrums tingle.

Soil and gravel were being stirred and thrown out at high speed, and a sinkhole that was getting deeper and deeper was taking shape at a rapid pace.

Bai Yu watched this scene with satisfaction, while Qi Ren looked utterly hopeless, feeling that his secret base was suffering an unprecedented "renovation disaster".

The excavation was in full swing when Ruki and Kenryo came running upon hearing the noise.

Looking at the mess and the busy Guilmon, Ruki frowned slightly and asked directly, "What are you doing?"

Jianliang also looked puzzled. The big-eared beast poked its little head out from his shoulder and looked around curiously.

"Ryuhime, Kenryo, you've arrived!" Keito rushed over as if seeing his saviors.

Ruki pointed to Guilmon, who was having a great time inside: "Answer my question, is this demolition?"

"No, it's Brother Baiyu who said he wanted to go treasure hunting..." Qi Ren quietly repeated Baiyu's seemingly unreliable reason.

As expected, after listening, Ruki's gaze toward Shiraha became strange. She crossed her arms and commented without any politeness, "You're so boring."

Bai Yu simply shrugged, looking like he was too lazy to explain.

Kenryo and Ruki reacted differently; he scrutinized the pit that Guilmon was constantly digging.
