The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

Typhon's fist came down, but it was intercepted by Izayoi with the same fist before it could be delivered, and he was kicked out of the throne.

Izayoi gave Asterius a look that said, "This is your responsibility," and then she too leaped away.

However, just as he jumped out, Izayoi was blasted back by Typhon, who suddenly appeared in front of her, and even flew through the castle and out from the other side.

Typhon did not take the opportunity to retaliate against Asterius. Even the Demon King was wary of this candidate who had recently blocked his simulated creation chart.

Just as Izayoi rolled to the other side of the hillside, Typhon caught up and kicked her down.

“───!”

Amidst the deafening roar, the spot where Izayoi had narrowly escaped had become a massive crater—as far as Izayoi knew, the previous battle with Azdakar had never caused such a devastating damage to the continent in one fell swoop.

In terms of arm strength alone, this guy is definitely no less than Azdakha.

"Tsk... He looks half-dead but he's still quite energetic."

Typhon completely ignored Izayoi's taunts. Although he was very confident in the sturdiness of his main body's heart in the castle, he still didn't waste any time and charged forward again. However, such an attack method was too straightforward even for Izayoi, who had only regained his skills in the last few years. The boy quickly circled around behind him and kicked him down.

This attack showed no mercy, targeting the cervical spine, a major weakness for all humans. However, after the precise strike, Typhon merely swayed slightly before turning and punching Izayoi away.

"Tch... He really is a tough opponent..."

In the critical moment, he crossed his hands to block the direct attack. Izayoi could already feel the numbness in his arms... not to mention that his right hand was still recovering from an old injury. Although he was furious, he couldn't hold on for long like this.

'No time to read the manual... I guess I'll just have to take a gamble...'

Realizing this, Izayoi applied the BDA that Flame had given him to his left hand while tumbling in the air.

Although we don't know what the side effects will be this time, it's clear that the chances of winning are slim if we don't use this.

However, he was puzzled to find that Typhon, who had been attacking relentlessly, did not pursue him while he was still in the air and had not yet adjusted his posture.

The mystery was only solved when he landed again—the formidable enemy he had just resolved to fight at all costs was now kneeling on the ground, coughing up blood.

Even though he hadn't used any force yet... Izayoi even felt that if he rushed forward and delivered a heavy blow, he could finish off his opponent completely.

However, the aurora that was flashing around the other party made him feel dangerous, so he did not act rashly. In the short time of hesitation, Typhon had already stood up again.

"Ha... What a pity... I wanted to rise up and question the gods, but I failed before it even began, just like last time. As expected of the Extreme Star Sword..."

It seemed that just saying those words had taken a lot of his strength, or perhaps his sudden standing up was just an attempt to intimidate and confuse the enemy before him. The great demon king once again knelt down helplessly.

Upon hearing the other party's statement, Izayoi frowned.

The "Extreme Star Sword" likely refers to the Kusanagi Sword, which Asuka seems to have inherited from her former best friend who was a queen knight... the faceless queen knight from the previous life of Kudo Ayatsuki—the two of them had also experienced quite a few things in the past two years.

That divine sword was the trump card that Fies Reis had mentioned wanting to use when he was fighting Azdakha.

As far as Izayoi knows, this sword's power is to separate all spirits that come into contact with it.

This ability is undeniably powerful. It's important to understand that everything in the Little Garden is based on the Spirit Rank, which can be broadly categorized as all abilities except for technical and physical capabilities, including gifts, magic, and supernatural powers.

But that's all.

While it would be terrifying in the hands of someone like Fies Reis who possesses technology beyond the realm of gods, setting aside the fact that the user would actually end up with nothing but technology and physical strength, Izayoi didn't believe that the person struck would experience that level of pain.

Suddenly, seeing Typhon's hand on his heart, Izayoi thought of a possibility.

"No, the reason you're in pain isn't the Ama-no-Kurakumo. You're using BDA, right...? No, I don't know what you call it, but turn it off immediately!"

Izayoi looked somewhat anxious.

It wasn't because Typhon was likely to die, but because Izayoi knew some of the technology used by BDA. If the acceleration continued, it would cause the same kind of dissolution as the previous cases involving Axe-wielding Rama and the others. Although Izayoi didn't know the terrible results caused by the small plant that Homura had experimented with, he could roughly guess that the scale of destruction caused by the dissolution of a being as powerful as Typhon would be unimaginable.

"How...did you know?"

Typhon squinted at Izayoi amidst his pain. Although he had always blamed Asuka for the cause, it seemed that he hadn't been oblivious to this fact himself.

But to get the other party to fully accept it, one last straw is needed... Izayoi is not a major researcher, so she can't just spout a bunch of data analysis, and the persuasive arguments she can come up with are really limited.

After a moment's thought, Izayoi had no choice but to tell this enemy about her birth, which she had investigated years ago out of interest but had not revealed to anyone else.

"Tch... My dad is Saigo Toya. You might not understand what I mean, but anyway, that guy is a researcher of stellar particle bodies, and most likely the number one in this field. So I know your symptoms very well, so just do as I say."

"What?"

However, to Izayoi's surprise, Typhon did not calm down, nor did he refuse to believe it. Instead, he became even more agitated and got up again.

"You bastard—you actually dare to stand in front of us! You son of a great sinner! If it weren't for your damned father's betrayal, my incarnation wouldn't have fallen to such a state of utter despair. You lied about wanting to save the world and hoping for help, but in the end, you caused the terrible consequences like the Heavenly Bull and the massacre of countless experimental subjects. Wasn't it your father who did that?!"

Typhon's rage now surpassed even his anger towards Asterius. As if in response, the earth spewed forth layers of magma, and the five dragon heads that had been awakened and were fighting with Heracles also turned their gazes in the same direction.

"I will stand with Dongye in this era, and this time I will surely atone for my sins. My avatar spoke these words with hope in his heart, and his tears flowed when he realized that his help had become the cause of spreading even more evil... You bastard, cough cough cough..."

Typhon coughed up blood, but he still stared intently at the boy before him. The continent of Atlantis responded to his feelings with a roar, and the anger of the being known as the enemy of the world was concentrated on Izayoi alone.

If Atlantis were allowed to run rampant now, it would surely vent its anger, but Typhon used his last bit of reason to hold on to the connection between his consciousness and his physical body, and staggered forward.

"'The future humans will surely come to welcome you'... King Minos, Dongye, everyone says so... So why...! Why?!"

Typhon... or rather, the Minotaur, cried out in regret, wanting to throw a punch, but finally lost his strength and collapsed onto Izayoi.

The person who has been passed down as the Minotaur is probably placed underground on Crete as a cornerstone to suppress the destructive power of volcanic eruptions. That person was awakened by Izayoi's father and chose to sacrifice his body once again to save this world thousands of years later.

If his father had truly betrayed him, truly repeated the tragedy of thousands of years ago...

"……Feel sorry."

Izayoi didn't know what to say, so she could only instinctively hug him tightly in response.

At the same time, in the direction of the castle, lightning as powerful as a god tore through the entire fortress, enough to rival the might of the gods, and shot straight into the clouds.

The power of Taurus, the most destructive of the twelve zodiac signs, is on full display at this moment.

The lightning seemed to shatter the world into countless fragments... Perhaps this was not an illusion. The lightning unleashed by the young king not only scorched the heavens and earth, but also burned space and pierced the void. The lightning not only successively destroyed the giant race, but even the dragon head that had risen from the void to the sky and then fell to the earth to awaken was successively destroyed.

It's like writing a new myth.

"...Gods."

In the end, all Izayoi could do when she looked at the sky was to utter a sigh that no one else could understand.

Then his phone rang.

"Hey, how come even you can communicate freely here?"

[That's not the point... Sixteenth Brother, are you done on your end?]

"Okay, it's almost done."

[Hurry and help! This continent is doomed! Everyone needs to be evacuated within three hours!]

"understood."

After giving a casual reply, Izayoi hung up the phone and removed Typhon's mask while still holding him.

"After all, there's an old saying that parents who don't accumulate virtue will be punished. I'll save you this time, but I have a lot of questions to ask you later... Haha, I'm sure those guys in the sky won't be uninterested."

Izayoi took a deep breath and activated BDA.

On the mountains of the slowly sinking continent of Atlantis, a gentle yet seemingly sorrowful light shone.

Chapter 816 The Next Stage?

The war ended just as the onlookers had predicted.

Instead of the climactic showdown between the hero and the demon king, the story concludes with the demon king's self-destruction.

While some warmongers might find it boring, at least for most people, this outcome is more reassuring.

The continent of Atlantis, which once had the power to shake the Little Garden, slowly sank into the abyss of the void.

As for whether Typhon's physical body has perished, the answer is probably no. It would never be easy to completely kill a demon king of a two-digit number. There were many factors that made it possible to achieve this, but at least, this demon king will not pose a threat in the short term.

And when the Heavenly Army finally reclaims the Demon King's body, this 'short time' will be extended indefinitely.

This time is different from many years ago. Atlantis is now just an inanimate object without a host consciousness... In other words, as long as the consciousness is protected, there will be no threat to the physical body, and it can be sealed normally.

These are not issues that the participants need to consider.

The last group of people evacuated hadn't been fully settled yet, but for Izayoi's side, it was a temporary relief.

In the final moments on Atlantis, the contestants contributed their knowledge and materials, and finally managed to piece together a teleportation array that could last for a period of time and allow enough people to pass through. They then gathered as many people as possible from the entire continent and ultimately succeeded in evacuating the majority of them.

In fact, many of the participants did not need to go to this step. Although many of them probably thought that 'this might give them extra points,' we should still thank them for their efforts.

After that, the indigenous people there were directly taken over by the Heavenly Army.

It is not uncommon in the Little Garden to summon heroes like Asterius or entire nations together. Vampires are a prime example of a nation, and there are many cases where the same hero from different parallel worlds is repeatedly summoned by the Little Garden at different times.

Although the Minos clan is large, the Celestial Army has always been experienced in handling such resettlement issues, so Izayoi doesn't need to worry too much.

"But this qualification is really not cheap."

Izayoi leaned against the wall and sighed.

"Well... at least it managed to survive in the end, no matter what."

Homura, standing beside Izayoi, gave a bitter smile. The Minos clan suffered heavy losses in this war, even losing their home... but at least they escaped the fate of extinction in history and were reborn in the Little Garden.

The two looked over, and the people of Minos seemed more confident and proud than uneasy.

The people who broke through the barrier of the two-digit demon king and crossed the void sea.

"If Asterius is guided properly, he will surely be able to overcome any difficulties in the future."

Izayoi offered her blessings and hopes to the clan she had fought alongside, and then let out a sigh of relief.

"So now it's our turn to ask questions."

"Um……"

Flame nodded.

"Sixteenth Brother, do you still remember the environmental control tower proposal I put forward last year?"

"Oh? Has it been technically confirmed to be feasible?"

"Yes, we've made some progress."

Flame nodded.

The proposed environmental control tower scheme involves constructing massive towers around the world to disperse stellar particles, thereby mitigating planetary environmental problems such as warming, desertification, and air pollution, and suppressing disasters like droughts, typhoons, and earthquakes. If all of this can be achieved, humanity will truly be able to control everything on this planet.

Two years ago, even if Yan knew the power of the Star Particle Body, he would have thought it was just wishful thinking. However, the 'Heavenly Ox' two years ago changed his mind.
