"I should be the one asking this." Patchouli frowned, "Why were you able to kill so many?"

She has done her best.

She calculated all possible optimal solutions at the fastest speed: how to clear out the gastrulae most efficiently, how to use magic power most reasonably, how to make the clearing route for reinforcements more efficient, and how to maintain physical balance during battle.

She even managed to accurately calculate the chanting time of each spell and the output power of each magic power.

She never stopped for a moment during this period.

When you feel tired, you can immediately recover your strength and continue to fight after recovery.

Every link has been carefully calculated and every bit of magic has been fully utilized.

And now tell her - she has only completed one-fifth of Lingyi's kills.

She knew that Lingyi was stronger than her, but she was also aware that she was limited by her lack of physical strength and illness.

So the number of kills is less than Lingyi, which is normal.

But...such a huge gap was completely beyond her expectations.

The witch, who had always been proud of her wisdom, felt deeply confused for the first time.

"No... Never mind, just pretend I didn't ask."

Before Lingyi could speak, Patchouli raised her hand to stop her.

What else could it be? Lingyi's strength was simply beyond expectations, or perhaps he possessed some special ability.

This kind of thing involves privacy, and as an outsider, I really shouldn't ask too much about it.

"Pachuli..." Lingyi's voice softened, a hint of worry in her voice, "Could it be that the disease has recurred?"

"If that's the case, there's no need to fight so hard. I'll leave some of the gastrula behind, and you can clean it up slowly."

Lingyi felt that her progress was actually quite slow.

Although they have gained the power of the Fire Knife and Hercules Base, which allows them to clear out surface enemies faster, the number of gastrulae is far less than that of zombies.

Clearing a vast area, including the two cities, would only eliminate 2 to 30 protogasters at most.

But Patchouli's performance was so unsatisfactory. The only reason Lingyi could think of was that her old illness had relapsed and the disease was holding her back again.

"..."

Patchouli raised her head wordlessly, but her eyes met the worry in Lingyi's eyes.

There was no condescending pity or overt or covert ridicule in those emerald green eyes, only the girl's pure concern for her friend.

"......what ever."

...........

While Lingyi was cleaning up the gastrulae, the Holy Emperor was also busy.

For the first time, she showed an unprecedented tough attitude in promoting the "New Gastroenterology Law" to give children the most basic human rights.

Even though the powerful assistant officer Tendo Kikunosho once again secretly opposed her, she still tried to force the establishment of the "New Gastrula Law".

But unfortunately, some things cannot be solved by being tough.

She has too little real power, and it's no use being tough. No one listens to her, and her orders cannot be carried out at all.

"Has His Majesty the Holy Emperor gone to bed?"

Tendo Kikunosuke turned his back to the visitor, stood with his hands behind his back, and overlooked the brightly lit night scene of Tokyo.

With his white hair and serious expression, the head of the Tendo clan looks even older.

He is the ruler of the Tendo clan, the assistant to the Holy Emperor, and holds most of the real power in the Tokyo district.

Although he loves the Holy Emperor, because his wife died in the Gastrula War, he has a deep hatred for the Gastrula and the Cursed Child.

This hatred made him the biggest obstacle to the Holy Emperor's implementation of the new policy, and it was he who had been secretly obstructing the "New Gastrula Law".

"Yes, my lord."

Bao Xie Zhuoren bowed his head respectfully and spoke cautiously, "The light in Lord Sheng Tianzi's room has been turned off. I believe he has fallen asleep."

As the captain of the Holy Emperor's guard, Bao Xie Zhuoren appears loyal but is actually extremely ambitious.

He coveted the favor of the Holy Emperor and tried to use it to rise to prominence, but he also obeyed the orders of Tiantong Juzhicheng and secretly monitored the Holy Emperor's every move.

"This world... was once beautiful."

Tendo Kikunojo gazed at the bustling scene outside the window and suddenly sighed in a low voice, with a hint of nostalgia in his voice.

"This prosperity was forged through the hard work and sweat of countless people. They built the monument of civilization with their flesh and blood, and the glory of humanity once illuminated the earth."

"Yes, it should shine forever on this planet..."

"Until those beasts—" The old man's voice suddenly turned cold, like a chill wind blowing across an icy field, "Take all of this away!"

"what......"

The old man suddenly sighed tiredly.

"Takuto, look at the lights in this city. Do they look like Christmas Eve in Ginza before the war?"

"It all depends on your strategy."

Bao Xie Zhuoren lowered his head even lower, with beads of cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

"Those beasts have already taken away the beauty of this world, and now they want to take away the last bit of beauty."

The old man's voice was low and full of oppression.

"I won't allow it!"

"The New Law on Proto-Gastroenterology?"

Kikunojo sneered, and his teeth rubbed against each other making a harsh sound.

"Allow the cursed children to go to school? Grant them corresponding human rights? Establish welfare institutions? Those monsters have viruses flowing through their veins. They should be crushed like cockroaches!"

"..."

Bao Xie Zhuoren's body couldn't stop shaking. He agreed with the old man's words, but in the face of the old man's anger, he didn't even dare to breathe.

He knew that the Holy Emperor must have made Tendou Kikunojo angry again at today's meeting.

Can't that woman be a little more honest?

"Zhuoren, has Lord Saint Emperor been in contact with anyone recently?"

Kikunojo turned around and looked at Howaki Takuto, and his voice suddenly calmed down again.

"Lord Saint Emperor has been staying in the Holy Residence recently, and there have been no outside visitors."

"Really?... Starting tomorrow, every time the Holy Emperor goes out, he will have to go through triple security checks, and..."

Kikunojo narrowed his old eyes slightly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together.

"If she tries to contact any suspicious individuals, lock her up in the Holy Residence under the pretext of protection."

"But....."

"Just say it was my order."

"Yes!"

53. The Holy Emperor is working hard, and everyone is working hard

Although the implementation of the new law suffered another setback, the Holy Emperor did not give up after a brief period of grief.

The real power is controlled by Tendo Kikunosho, and her orders are almost impossible to carry out without the other party's approval.

But there was still something she could do - if she had a desperate attitude.

"......"

The Holy Emperor took a deep breath.

Lady Lingyi has already started cleaning up the gastrulae. Everyone's time is already counting down, and she has no time to hesitate or look back.

I was too weak in the past. If I continue like this, I won’t be able to save anyone.

She had to change, had to take a step she had never taken before.

As the Holy Son of Heaven and the ruler of this country, her authority is at the highest level and she can access any information at will.

- For example, the video records of the children fighting, the contributions they made, their efforts and sacrifices, and the current situation they face.

Not only in the Tokyo area, but also in all countries and regions, this information was covered up. All the credit for the fight against enterotoxins was attributed to the government and the military, and the people had no way of knowing the true side of the world.

Some people have rarely seen gastrula.

People know very little about the Gastrula War ten years ago, the world war that caused humanity to lose 80% of its territory.

Because the governments of various countries did not even announce the specific content of the war to the outside world.

That's why people are so easily incited to hate those children.

Now, what the Holy Emperor has to do is to tell everyone the truth.

At the beginning, the main force against enteroantigens was of course the army, because the children were still young at that time.

They were born after the war, and the oldest child was only six years old four years ago.

In recent years, as the first group of children grew up, they had the strength to fight against the protostomes, and the continuous evolution of the protostomes made it difficult for the army to cope.

The children's contributions became greater and greater, and they gradually became active on the front line.

People like them may even completely eliminate the military one day, and then they will be the hope of protecting mankind.

They are by no means inherently evil monsters.

The Holy Emperor sent various videos, photos, and reports to the Internet, and used his own authority to allow them to skip the review process and grant them a large amount of traffic.

She believes that after seeing this, many people will change their views on children.

As for the adverse consequences of doing so, the Holy Emperor has no time to consider them.

If we don't do this, everyone will die. Let's just let everyone survive first.

.........

With the active efforts of Lingyi and Patchouli, they cleared out most of the gastrula in Japan in two days.

And as they become more and more skilled, their speed also increases.

Such a huge commotion not only affected Japan, but also caused relevant information to appear on the conference tables of various countries.

For a time, the minds of all countries and organizations became active.

Some are afraid, some are curious, and some discover their extraordinaryness and realize the huge treasure hidden within.

People try to make contact with Rei and Patchouli.

However, Lingyi completely refused any contact.

If she thinks the person she sends is guilty, she will kill him immediately.

If not, just ignore the other person.

She now only wants to concentrate on dealing with the protostomes, and only then will she deal with the humans.

Patchouli originally wanted to contact various countries to obtain some intelligence information.

But because she was defeated by Lingyi, who is now the theoretical team captain, she asked Lingyi's opinion, then changed her mind and also refused to contact humans.

In the process, they completely eliminated the protogastric mammals from Japan.

Then we rushed to the next country without stopping.

"Come on! Use magic, little sister!"

"......"

The current situation is that Patchouli is fighting hard, and Lingyi is cheering beside her.

They just happened to meet each other, so they planned to take a break and chat, and then a super-large gastrula emerged from the side and entered Lingyi's radar range.

Although they did not know each other, they both felt that the other's vitality was far greater than that of other protostomes.

It was undoubtedly a Zodiac.
