In Tokyo, the dungeon master

At this moment, Zorc's figure remained suspended in the sky, his posture as composed as ever.

The term "middle sequence" is relative to "high sequence." High sequence individuals are regarded as gods by mortals and rarely use their full power in the human realm, usually appearing in avatars. In fact, strong individuals at the middle sequence level can be called demigods in various mythologies.

It is likely that only fourth-order units that lack corresponding countermeasures will be injured by missiles.

Human weapons lack magic, and many methods suffer from this weakness; though they have strengths, they are helpless against them as long as we work on their weaknesses.

As the Great Evil God Zorc is set to have long been worshipped by cults throughout history, in the prequel storyline of this instance, not only did his High Priest be resurrected in the human world ahead of time, but Gu Meng also personally descended to the human world in disguise. After his descent, people will be misled into thinking that what Gu Meng did is what they did themselves.

In short, Zorc has no shortage of intelligence on the human faction.

From its perspective, it knows that the current environment is devoid of magic, and that it has unexpectedly comprehended the power of the universe, which is why it is able to maintain its strength for the time being. Since it knows that the human army has no magic power, it can use the corresponding magic to target the mechanism, and naturally it will be invincible.

For Zorc, who controls endless darkness and possesses boundless divine power, destroying a Self-Defense Force base is merely a matter of lifting a finger.

It gently turned its body, its evil eyes turning towards another, more heavily guarded and larger base not far away—the US military base in Japan.

There, fighter jets swarm, aircraft carriers are anchored in the near sea, nuclear weapons loom, countless troops are on high alert, and even stronger armed forces are stirring, attempting a final stand.

Fighter jets scrambled into the air, and intercontinental ballistic missiles were ready for launch...

Humanity's most powerful military force is on full display at this moment.

Zorc watched all this, but remained unmoved, slowly walking towards the US military base.

It wants to completely destroy all military power on this land, as well as all human confidence. Let the nuclear bombs be launched, and then turn Japan into a dark sacrifice. Afterwards, it will also occupy Japan's suzerain state, the United States, and make the whole world completely submit to its feet.

At this point, the sentiment on the Japanese internet had completely turned sour. Everyone was now convinced that the world was going to end. Originally, the probability of a monster causing the apocalypse was only 20%, but now, seeing how powerful the monster—no, I mean the evil god—was, the probability of an apocalypse skyrocketed to 80%.

Ah, so the Great Evil God is like Gatanothor. Oh well, I thought it was Gomera. Hahahaha.

Where is Shining Tiga? Please help...

I've already said that Ultraman is just a kidding game; Ultraman doesn't exist at all...

The Self-Defense Forces are unable to defend themselves, and it looks like even the American daddy is about to be defeated by an evil god with a giant dragon head.

Even TV Tokyo has stopped airing anime and started broadcasting breaking news.

It seems I'm doomed this time. My decades in this world have passed like a dream, an illusion...

.........

In Isshin Town, Shirakawa Keiji was still in the same spot. He still didn't understand what Kagamine had been doing, or why he had been waiting. He felt like he wasn't himself anymore. Where was his bodyguard? He felt very unsafe without a bodyguard.

However, he still has a mobile phone that can access the internet, and he knows what is happening in the outside world. Right now, all the headlines on all the websites are filled with breaking news, and the images are full of black smoke, ruins, and dark, towering shadows that blot out the sky.

No, could it be that the darkness within the Shirakawa family is real, and that his wife's ancestors were truly swordsmen and priestesses who sealed away a great demon? Could his daughter and granddaughter also be magical girls?

Huh? It feels like this isn't the first time we've done this...

What went wrong?

Shirakawa Keiji took a deep breath, trying to suppress his panic. "I'm Old Deng. I've seen everything in my life. There's nothing to be afraid of," he said, gazing into the distance.

For some reason, perhaps the eye of the storm is calm? Kagamine's surroundings are relatively normal, but there's chaos in the distance—sacks are being pulled out. Is Kagamine also a magical girl? Is she casting a spell and that's why she can't respond to me? That's probably it.

In short, other places are in chaos.

Even though Yixin Town is just a quiet inland town, far from the coast and cities, the atmosphere is still stirred up by that distant catastrophe, with strong winds and the sky as dark as dusk.

Storm is coming.

…………

In the meeting room of the Prime Minister's Official Residence in Nagata-cho.

The cold light was blinding, and the cabinet ministers were still arguing heatedly over the deployment of Self-Defense Forces troops, with shirking responsibility and anxiety churning in the enclosed space.

Miki Tsuchimikado sat in the main seat, dressed in a neatly tailored women's suit, but her posture gave off a somewhat pretentious vibe.

As Japan's first female prime minister, her image has always been unpredictable, but today she is clearly flustered, with an obvious sense of unease.

With a loud crash, the Chief Cabinet Secretary, pale-faced, burst through the door and stumbled inside, a tablet in his hand:

"Prime Minister! It's over... The Maritime Self-Defense Force headquarters, and several other important outposts, are all gone. The monster... that evil god's speed is terrifying, and he leaves absolutely no room for error. After people die, some seem to be considered guilty of grave sins and suited for the abyss, where their souls are drained. It's too horrible!"

Miki Tsuchimikado suddenly snatched the tablet away.

The screen displayed an apocalyptic scene: the seemingly impregnable Self-Defense Forces headquarters building was being frantically swallowed by thick, inky black mist. The distorted phantom of the great evil god Zorc surged in the black tide, and with a flick of his giant claws, the reinforced concrete military center collapsed like paper. Flames wrapped in black smoke shot into the sky, and only shrill screams and endless static filled the communication channels.

Humanity's steel fortress couldn't even withstand the power of the evil god for a moment before being completely reduced to ruins.

The shadow of death was about to engulf the entire country of Japan.

A prophecy that had been passed down through the Tsuchimikado family since ancient times, or rather, through all the ancient and extraordinary families of this era, was recalled by Tsuchimikado Miki: "Everyone will die, including me."

The end of the world has truly come.

The conference hall fell into a deathly silence for a moment, then erupted into chaos a hundred times more intense than before!

The Defense Minister slumped in his chair, trembling, while the Foreign Minister screamed for help from the US military, demanding that they drop nuclear bombs!

Since the first and second times nuclear weapons were used in actual combat, they were used against Japan, this time should be no exception. Let's continue to use nuclear weapons against Japan.

We need to act quickly before they arrive in Tokyo. We can still resolve this at a military base on the Tokyo Bay coast or elsewhere. It would be impolite to launch a nuclear missile if we wait for "that person" to arrive in Tokyo.

Some lawmakers, in a panic, were desperate to escape Tokyo, this soon-to-be-destroyed ghost town. "I'm running away!"

"Shut up, all of you!"

Miki Tsuchimikado slammed her hand on the table, her cold shout carrying the authority of two generations of prime ministers, forcefully silencing the commotion in the room.

Her face was extremely pale, but her eyes were filled with despair and determination.

"Call for help? The US military base won't last ten minutes against Lord Zorc...! Resist? The Self-Defense Forces headquarters is already ashes, what are we supposed to resist with!"

She pointed at the all-consuming black mist on the screen, her voice as cold as ice, "The Great Evil God Zorc is not something that mortal force can contend with. If this continues, the entire country of Japan will become a sacrifice to the evil god!"

"If we allow another nuclear strike on Tokyo, we will all be forced to resign, and the outcome of a nuclear attack on that person is still unknown. If we don't allow a nuclear strike on Tokyo, we might not even be able to resign. Is it better to wait for death and die for our country?"

"What do you mean?"

"You want to pull out a sack?!"

Miki Tsuchimikado did not respond, nor did she look at the terrified expressions of the crowd. She turned to face the meeting chairperson, her eyes filled with an unyielding authority: "End all irrelevant agenda items, initiate an emergency vote, and use the highest national emergency bill revised by the former prime minister, my uncle. No debate, no review, vote immediately!"

The moderator looked troubled and was about to mention the meeting procedure, which was actually not in accordance with regulations. We Japan are not at war yet. Even if we wanted to restore militarism, we wouldn't take such a big step. Besides, we still have the United States as our father. Your uncle doesn't have that much power.

Before he could speak, he was interrupted by Tsuchimikado Miki's stern expression.

"In my capacity as Prime Minister of Japan, I invoke the highest authority under the Emergency Situation Law to forcibly pass this resolution!" Her voice resounded throughout the room. "Effective immediately, a state of emergency is declared throughout Japan. All military command authority over the Ground, Maritime, and Air Self-Defense Forces, all Coast Guard forces, and all mobile forces of the National Police Agency is now under my direct control. Any unit or commander who disobeys orders will be charged with treason and executed on the spot!"

"What are you trying to do?" "Are you crazy?" "You want to become the emperor?"

"Are you kidding me?" "Are you going to make a high-stakes gamble?"

Only a handful of people dared to refute Tsuchimikado Miki when they were almost at each other's throats; in this life, her power was far greater than that of the Cart Giant in her previous life.

After all, she was related to the deceased prime minister and could inherit more of his estate. Moreover, the legendary Japanese assassin of this life died in prison, and things calmed down quickly.

Furthermore, she herself possesses an extraordinary physique. Her physique naturally lacks magic in the current environment. Unlike Tokai Isshiki, she doesn't receive comprehensive enhancements, nor does she have physical strength enhancements like Manka Chiyana. However, her intelligence and leadership abilities are stronger than those of normal people, and also stronger than that of the Cart Giant from her previous life.

……

In the end, the room fell silent; most people dared not refute it.

After all, with the world almost ending, what she does is irrelevant.

The despair of a nation being destroyed by an evil god crushed all political maneuvering; in the face of life and death, all procedures and rules became a joke.

Only a few old men persisted in asking questions:

"What exactly do you want?"

"I will control all the soldiers and horses in the world, even if they're wearing stockings!"

While replying firmly, Tsuchimikado Miki methodically gave instructions to her subordinates.

If you didn't know what kind of order she was giving, you might think she was a woman of great talent and ambition.

"What can you do by controlling this nearly collapsed Self-Defense Force? What else can we do if they don't obey American orders?"

"We have one more option."

Seeing that the preparations were complete, Miki Tsuchimikado strode to the national live broadcast camera, her former prime ministerial authority completely gone, replaced by resigned submission.

She spoke slowly to the camera, to the entire nation of Japan, her voice carrying across the four main islands of Japan via radio waves:

"I am the Prime Minister of Japan, Miki Tsuchimikado."

"The Great Evil God Zorc has destroyed the Self-Defense Forces headquarters, and our armed forces have suffered a complete defeat and are no longer able to fight."

"In order to save the lives of the Japanese people and avoid the calamity of national destruction, I, as the Prime Minister of Japan, formally surrender to the great evil god Zorc and admit defeat."

"From this moment forward, all resistance throughout Japan ceases, and all shall submit to Lord Zorc's rule."

This moment feels just like that moment eighty years ago.

As soon as she finished speaking, she bowed slightly, her back bent, showing a submissive posture.

The ministers in the meeting hall were silent, looking at the submissive female prime minister in front of the camera, and then thinking of the black tide that was swallowing everything in the distance, and that "that person" whose big head looked like no good thing, they were filled with endless fear and despair.

What will the Japanese archipelago look like in the future?
