Daigo landed the Flying Swallow No. 1 in front of the theater troupe's bread cart, blocking their way.

The Victory Team members quickly arrived at the scene in two patrol cars, the Sherlock and the Drum.

The troupe leader watched the Victory Team members approaching them with a wary expression.

Although Daigo saved them, they knew in their hearts that Durban was a real monster.

If Durban's identity were discovered by the Victory Team and TPC, who knows how they would treat him?

They might even be separated from Durban.

This made him wary.

"Commander, what should we do now?"

"Adapt to changing circumstances."

Munakata arrived at the theater troupe's bread truck and got straight to the point: "Hello. I'm Munakata, the vice-captain of the Victory Team. I'd like to ask you to come back to headquarters with us. We need your cooperation."

"We have a performance tomorrow, so let's skip this one," the troupe leader said with a smile.

"Then can you tell me why the demon god keeps chasing you?" Zongfang asked.

"How would we know? Maybe it was just a coincidence," said the troupe leader.

"Yes, yes!" the effeminate man chimed in.

"Your theater troupe has been present in every place where the demon god has appeared five times in a row. How do you explain that?" Shinjo shouted impatiently.

Xincheng's words left the members of the troupe speechless.

"The demon has been chasing you because of that monster, right?" Daigo asked.

"How did you know?" the clown asked in surprise.

As soon as he said it, he knew he had made a mistake and quickly covered his mouth.

"You idiot!" the troupe leader cursed.

"Please don't misunderstand, we have no ill intentions towards that little monster, nor would we do anything to harm it. TPC has recovered a lot of monster remains and has no shortage of monster materials for research, so you can rest assured," Horii immediately stepped forward and explained.

"real?"

"I can guarantee that!" Zongfang nodded and said.

The members of the troupe exchanged glances, their eyes still showing some hesitation.

"If you stay outside, you'll definitely be attacked by the demon god again. Next time, you might not be so lucky to be rescued," Lina said, gently persuading her.

"The troupe leader?" The troupe members all looked at their troupe leader.

"Please give us some time to discuss this," the troupe leader said.

"Of course."

Several members of the troupe and their leader went aside and began to discuss in hushed tones.

"Commander, what should we do?"

"Given the current situation, we have no choice but to go to the TPC base to avoid the Demon God," the troupe leader said.

"But Durban..."

"In this situation, we can only trust the Victory Team, can't we? Durban is like family to us. Do you want to just watch Durban be killed by the demon?" the troupe leader said in a deep voice.

As soon as he said that, everyone else was speechless.

After the discussion, the troupe leader came to Zong Fang and said, "We can go to the TPC headquarters with you, but you must agree to one condition."

"What are the conditions?" Zongfang asked.

"If we want to leave, you can't stop us, and not one of us can be missing!" The troupe leader looked at Zong Fang and said seriously.

"I promise you!" Upon hearing this, Zongfang's expression turned solemn, and he extended his hand towards the troupe leader.

"Thank you for your help." The troupe leader shook hands with Zongfang.

"Return to base!" Munakata shouted back to the GUTS team.

"clear!"

Except for Daigo, all the members of the GUTS team returned to the Sherlock van and the Drum van, escorting the van to TPC headquarters.

Daigo boarded the Flying Swallow No. 1 and was the first to return to port.

Shortly after, the three vehicles passed through the undersea tunnel and arrived at the underground parking lot of TPC.

Seeing that the members of the theater troupe were quite frightened, the members of the Victory Team did not interrogate them that night. Instead, they arranged rooms for them to rest for the night and planned to deal with them the next day.

After learning that the GUTS team had brought Durban back, Shen Yun temporarily put aside the development of the demon energy interference device and went to Munakata, who was settling the theater troupe members.

The four actors in the troupe were dressed strangely, looking like circus staff. Behind them was a small monster, less than 1.6 meters tall, which looked around happily.

"Vice Captain Zong Fang." Shen Yun stepped forward.

"Doctor, is there something you need?" Munakata asked.

"I want to borrow this monster; perhaps it can wake up those citizens who have fallen into a coma due to the influence of the demon god's electromagnetic waves. I can also give it a routine check-up while I'm at it," Shen Yun said bluntly.

"What do you think?" Munakata posed the question to the members of the theater troupe.

"Director!" The troupe members all looked at the director, hoping he could make a decision.

After a moment's thought, the troupe leader said, "Okay, but we'll accompany you the whole time."

"Whatever," Shen Yun replied casually.

He just intended to study the electromagnetic waves in Durban, and also give it a physical examination and record some data.

"Come with me." Shen Yun led the Victory Team members and the troupe actors toward the medical department.

Upon arriving at the medical department, the lights were still on.

Citizens affected by the demon's electromagnetic waves this morning are still unconscious and show no signs of waking up.

However, their condition was much better than in the morning.

"What's wrong with all these people?" the effeminate man asked.

"Affected by the demon god's electromagnetic waves, he can't wake up for the time being. We need this monster's help." Shen Yun came to Durban, patted its head, and said, "These citizens are in your care."

Durban staggered into the ward. As it looked at the unconscious citizens inside, its ears immediately began to flash, releasing an invisible golden electromagnetic wave that enveloped them.

The electromagnetic waves from the demons that remained on these citizens were neutralized by the golden electromagnetic waves from Durban.

Shen Yun also took the opportunity to record this scene, as well as various related data.

From the instrument, he could see that after these unconscious citizens were enveloped by golden electromagnetic waves, some purple electromagnetic waves in their bodies were expelled and dissipated into the air.

Shen Yun's expression was a bit strange. Why did this scene feel like an exorcism?

After the demonic electromagnetic waves remaining in the bodies of these citizens were neutralized by the golden electromagnetic waves emitted by Durban, the unconscious citizens woke up one after another.

"Alright, let's move on to the next ward," Shen Yun said.

Shen Yun led Deban to the next ward, where Deban once again emitted golden electromagnetic waves to neutralize the demonic electromagnetic waves within the bodies of the unconscious citizens.

Soon, the citizens affected by the demon's electromagnetic waves recovered and awoke from their coma thanks to Durban's efforts.

Although these citizens suffered minor brain damage, it was not a serious matter, and they could recover after a week or two of rest.

Shen Yun also collected a lot of data, and after taking a closer look, he found that Durban's golden electromagnetic waves had no other effect besides neutralizing the demon god's electromagnetic waves.

Durban is like Ayn Rum's natural nemesis.

"Next is the routine physical examination. I hope you can understand." Shen Yun had a very good impression of the actors in this troupe.

"I understand." The troupe leader nodded, indicating that he understood.

He had long been mentally prepared; it would be strange if the TPC didn't inspect Durban.

Shen Yun took Durban to the medical department's examination center and gave him a thorough check-up.

"It really is completely useless except for neutralizing the electromagnetic waves of the demon god." Shen Yun couldn't help but complain as he looked at the test results in his hand.

Durban's ear is a special organ that can release golden electromagnetic waves that neutralize the demon's electromagnetic waves.

Its ears light up when it feels fear.

In addition, its physique is also very special; as long as it stands there, it can weaken the electromagnetic waves of the demon god.

Although it is a monster, its physical abilities may not be as good as those of a normal adult male.

Simply put, this little guy is basically a weakling with absolutely no offensive capabilities, except for being a natural counter to the demon god Enermina.

"Alright, you can take it with you now." After drawing a vial of blood from Durban, Shen Yun waved his hand, indicating to the troupe leader that Durban could be taken away.

Once Shen Yun released him, Durban ran behind the troupe leader and hid, looking at Shen Yun with a hint of fear in his eyes.

It wasn't afraid of Shen Yun before, but after Shen Yun drew a vial of blood from it, it refused to approach Shen Yun no matter what.

He's just a little kid.

Shen Yun looked at Durban, who was hiding behind his parents like a child, and shook his head helplessly.

"Doctor, how are you?" Zong Fang looked at the theater troupe actors comforting the Durban actors, came to Shen Yun's side, and asked in a low voice.

Shen Yun handed the report to Zong Fang, then looked at Deban, who had an extremely harmonious relationship with the troupe's actors, and said:

"This little guy isn't harmful. Aside from weakening and neutralizing the demon god's electromagnetic waves, it doesn't have any other special abilities."

"Although this little guy is a monster, I estimate that it can't even beat an adult male."

"Since they want to keep this monster, let them keep it. Just give them some financial support and ask them to report on the monster's condition every now and then."

"As for the rest, there's no need to worry about them."

"I understand." Zongfang nodded.

He knew what to do.

Zongfang stepped forward and negotiated with the members of the troupe.

Seeing their surprised and delighted expressions, Shen Yun smiled slightly and quietly left the medical department.

He did another good deed today.

Back at his research institute, Shen Yun continued developing the Demon God Energy Interference Device.

The Demon God Energy Interference Device is primarily designed to interfere with the energy that covers the body surface of the Aenemena.

The creation of this demon energy interference device is not particularly difficult.

This only requires converting the energy into the same energy wave to interfere with the energy that the Aenemanma covers the body for transmission.

One night is enough to build something like this.

……

the next morning.

Shen Yun, who had worked through the night to develop the Demon God Energy Interference Device, walked out of the research institute with the finished product in his hand.

This device can be installed on the DUNK tank gun as an accessory, converting the tank gun's laser into a special energy beam that interferes with the energy covering Aenemena's body, thus blocking her ability to move through space.

Shen Yun, carrying the Demon God Energy Interference Device, arrived at the command room.

Inside the command room, only Megumi Kijima was present, making it appear rather deserted.

"Doctor." Megumi looked at Shen Yun and gave him a faint smile.

"Captain Megumi, this is a demon energy interference device. Just attach it to the muzzle of the Hyper gun. When the demon tries to enter the subspace, fire a shot at her, and it will interfere with the energy covering her body, preventing her from entering the subspace," Shen Yun said, placing the small device on the command table.

"This is troublesome," said Kijimi.

"It's nothing." Shen Yun smiled, left the demon energy interference device behind, and then got up and left.

What happened after that was none of his business.

After leaving the command room, Shen Yun did not return to his dormitory to catch up on sleep, but continued to improve the Ebloon cells.

Not long after Shen Yun left, Ju Jianhui had Zongfang bring the troupe members to the command room.

Before long, the members of the Victory Team and the theater troupe gathered in the command room.

Besides them, Durban also came to the command room.

Looking at the troupe leader in front of her, Megumi asked in a gentle tone, "Mr. Leader, could you please tell me about the origins of Durban?"

"Of course." The troupe leader nodded, recalling the day he met Durban.

"I remember it was when we were performing on the rooftop of the department store. When I came back from lunch, it was standing there blankly. I thought it was going to join our theater troupe. Although it was a bit clumsy, it put a lot of effort into rehearsals, and I really liked it."

"At the time, we didn't know Durban was a monster. We thought it was just dressed up as one. After the performance that day, I gave Durban a drink, and it drank it right away. That's when we realized that Durban was actually a real monster! It really scared us." The troupe leader said, a slight smile appearing on his face.

"However, we later discovered that it was actually very friendly and would never hurt anyone. Its lively and adorable personality also brought a lot of joy to our performances. So we took Durban in and took it with us on our performances."

"Have you been with Durban ever since then?" Lina, who was teasing Durban with Daigo, looked at the troupe leader with sparkling eyes and asked.

"That's right." The troupe leader nodded.

"When the troupe leader calls out 'come out' on stage, it always thinks he's calling its name."

"It really enjoys performing on stage."

The actors in the troupe were all talking at once, recounting their experiences with Durban.

"Captain, this is the data Dr. Shen recorded last night." Zongfang handed the report from last night to Jujian Hui.

Kijima Megumi picked up the report and began to read it. Horii immediately moved closer to Kijima Megumi and began to look at the report as well.

"This little guy only has the ability to weaken and neutralize the demon god's electromagnetic waves? No wonder the demon god has been chasing it all this time," Horii exclaimed in surprise.

"No wonder. If I were a demon god, knowing that there was such a monster that could suppress my abilities, I probably wouldn't be able to sleep well at night," Shinjo laughed.

"Wow, Horii is amazing!" Daigo patted Deban on the head and praised him with a smile.

"I am Horii." Horii glared at Daigo, pointed to himself, and said.

Daigo Inui looked at Horii with a smile.

At that moment, the alarm in the command center sounded again.

"The Demon God has appeared in the K region," said Nori.

"All forces attack!" Zongfang said in a deep voice.

"Understood!" The Victory Team members immediately ran towards the outside of the command room.

"Wait a minute, Lina, stay here. Shinjo, bring the demon energy interference device that the doctor developed." Megumi called out to the GUTS team.

Shinjou returned and took away the Demon God Energy Interference Device.

"Captain?" Lina looked at Megumi with a puzzled expression.

"Wait a minute," Megumi said to Lina, then turned to Yuzuru and said, "Connect to the main screen."

"Understood." Ye Rui immediately connected the live feed to the main screen.

On the main screen in the command center, the demon god appeared in the city and was releasing a large amount of violent electromagnetic waves towards the city.

Durban looked at Aynor on the main screen with a somewhat frightened expression.

"Its electromagnetic waves are even stronger than before!" Ye Rui said, looking at the data on the computer.

On the main screen, the demon god continuously released violent electromagnetic waves from the horns on its shoulders and fired several waves of blue fireballs from its forehead, aiming at the buildings in the city.

Faced with the demon god's high-heat fireball, these houses were almost instantly blown to rubble.

Seeing this, Nori quickly stepped forward to Megumi's side and said, "Captain, at this rate, the city will be destroyed within minutes. Please allow me and Durban to go to the scene!"

"How can this be allowed? You all know that Durban has absolutely no ability to protect himself. If we go to the scene, who can protect Durban from the demon?" the troupe leader protested.

"Are you just going to stand by and watch the city be destroyed without doing anything?" Ye Rui questioned.

"This is none of my business! Protecting the city is your Victory Team's job!" the troupe leader retorted.

He grabbed Durban's hand, looked at Kijima and Nori, and said loudly, "Durban is an indispensable member of our troupe. I will not allow you to treat him as a tool!"

"What if we can guarantee the safety of Durban?" Megumi asked calmly.

"Could it be..." Upon hearing this, Norizuki's eyes lit up, as if he had guessed Iruma Megumi's plan.

"How can we guarantee it?" the troupe leader asked.

"The mecha cockpit," Megumi Kijima began.

"Have Durban follow Lina into the mech's cockpit. The mech's outer armor is extremely tough; so far, no monster has been able to break through its outer armor defenses."

Megumi paused for a moment, then continued, "When mechs fight the Demon God at close range, they will inevitably be affected by the Demon God's electromagnetic waves. As long as Durban enters the mech's cockpit and neutralizes the Demon God's electromagnetic waves, it will be sufficient to prevent the mech pilot from being affected by them."

The troupe leader did not answer, but looked down at Durban and asked:

"Durban, would you like to go?"

Durban looked at the destruction of Enermina on the main screen, and although it was a little scared, it nodded firmly.

"I understand." The troupe leader sighed and looked at Megumi, saying, "Please take good care of it."

"Lina!" Megumi looked at Lina.

"Understood!" Lina grabbed Durban and immediately ran towards the hangar.
