Chapter 318 Edith, the bug of the Sincerity Eye Demon System

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."

Just as Shen Yun reached out to Di Mu Zou, a loud banging sound came from outside the door.

At the same time, a commotion came from outside the door.

"Hey! Dimu, I know you're in there. Pay back the money now! Or we'll burn your house down!"

"What is this...?" Shen Yun glanced at the door that was being banged on, and looked at Di Muzan with a puzzled expression.

Fueki looked slightly embarrassed and said, "I borrowed money from some loan sharks; these people are debt collectors."

"I see." Shen Yun nodded slightly and smiled. "Since we have already reached a cooperation agreement, let's handle this little trouble ourselves. It's a token of our sincerity."

As he spoke, Shen Yun looked at A2 beside him and said, "Contact the Superintendent General of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department (Minister of Public Security) and have him handle it."

It's true that having the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Superintendent General personally handle this minor matter is making a mountain out of a molehill.

[Remember the fastest online novel website: 1 ...

But if he has this power, why doesn't he use it?

This is the composure of the Five Star Emperor.

"Okay." A2 nodded, took out his phone, made a call, and gave the instructions.

About a minute after A2 hung up the phone, the shouting outside the door suddenly stopped.

Soon, the voices outside the door came again, but this time they were no longer arrogant, and there was a hint of fear in their voices.

"We're very sorry, we'll leave now, please forgive us."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flurry of footsteps sounded outside the door.

The henchmen who came to collect the debt fled as fast as they could.

Fueki Kanade watched this scene in astonishment and personally experienced the amazing power of the Foundation X.

A single phone call was enough to get the Superintendent General of Police to personally handle such a minor matter...

Fueki Kanade was completely relieved. With the investment from this mysterious conglomerate X, he could focus on his research into magic and resurrect Alex.

"Alright, things are settled, so I won't stay any longer. Later, others will come to hand over the work to Mr. Fueki and discuss the initial investment amount. I hope Mr. Fueki will not disappoint the X Foundation's expectations of you." Shen Yun looked at Fueki Kanade again and smiled.

"Please rest assured," Fueki Kanade quickly assured him.

This concerns his daughter's resurrection, and he is determined to find a solution no matter what.

"That's good." Shen Yun nodded and left the Dimu family with A2.

……

The world of beholders.

Ever since Edith witnessed the Eye Demons' bodies collapse and dissipate into a cloud of black smoke several years ago, she has been dedicated to finding the cause of the problem.

Even for astute individuals as Edith and Igor, it took them considerable time to uncover the truth.

During this period, many of the people who were sleeping and possessed eyes disappeared.

After years of investigation, Edith discovered the problem—the Eye Soul System was infested with bugs.

Edith used the power of the Great Eye to design the Eye Soul system and create the perfect world of Eye Demons.

Although the Eye of the Greatness system draws upon the power of the Eye of the Greatness, it is not without its own costs.

To maintain the operation of the eye-soul system, bio-energy must be extracted from the sleeping person.

Although the bioenergy extracted from a sleeping person by the Eye Soul System does not endanger life, the total amount of bioenergy required to maintain the system's operation is fixed.

The Eye Soul System makes balancing adjustments based on the amount of bioenergy produced by different individuals.

Simply put, the amount of bioenergy produced by each Eye Demon varies. Those who produce more bioenergy will have more extracted, while those who produce less bioenergy will have less extracted.

As long as the total amount of bio-energy extracted can match the consumption of the Eye Demon System during operation.

In that case, the Eye Demon System can be maintained forever, allowing the Eye Demon people to live forever and happily in the perfect Eye Demon world.

However, not everything in this world will develop in a positive direction.

After operating for hundreds of years, the bio-energy produced by the Eye Demon people began to decrease, making it impossible to sustain the Eye Demon system's consumption.

Therefore, in order to maintain its operation, the Eye Demon System has to extract more bio-energy.

Although the extracted bio-energy is small when distributed among each Eye Demon citizen, it will lead to a vicious cycle over time.

The less bioenergy the Eye Demon people produce, the more bioenergy the Eye Demon system extracts.

The energy consumed by the system robbed the energy necessary to maintain life, causing the remaining energy of the Eye Demon people to drop to zero and their bodies to disappear.

Moreover, the appearance of the system bugs led to a decrease in the population of the Eye Demons, and the average amount of bio-energy extracted per person increased again, which in turn caused a further decrease in the population of the Eye Demons.

If this vicious cycle continues, it will eventually kill all the people of the Eye Demon.

"How could it have turned out like this..." Edith clutched her head, her expression pained.

These people are dying, and it's all his fault!

Although the Eye Demon System was completed with the help of the power of the Great Eye, he was the one who created the system.

He is the one who killed these people with blind eyes.

Although the cause has been identified, the reason why bedbugs appeared and the cause of this incident remains unknown.

Helpless against the system bugs, Edith had no choice but to seek help from the Great Eye in order to save the lives of the Eye Demons.

However, due to the obstruction of the guardians, Edith was unable to approach the Great Eye.

Edith wanted to eliminate the Guardians, but their self-learning ability was too strong. In a short period of time, they evolved into beings that even Edith, their creator, could not interfere with.

Edith was also quite taken aback by this.

Left with no other option, Edith went to Emperor Adnis for help.

However, Edith's lobbying, which concealed her true purpose, naturally ended in failure.

Edith, having been rejected by Emperor Adnis, was completely at a loss.

"Why did this happen...?"

"Am I just supposed to watch people die?"

"It's all my fault..."

The people inside the sealed chamber continued to disappear due to the system bugs. Edith, who could only watch helplessly as people died, was also trapped in a quagmire of despair. The guilt and painful emotions in his heart almost consumed him.

It was under these circumstances that he came into contact with Adair one day.

"Sir, are you willing to assist me in invading Earth? It seems you can't refuse." Adair revealed a sinister smile and said, "I know everything."

"?!"

Although Edith understood that Adair intended to use human energy to fix the bugs in the system, he couldn't object to it.

Moreover, Adair's proposal can be seen as a solution, a way to save people.

Despair had driven Edith to despair, rendering her incapable of making sound judgments.

……

Tokyo, Daitenkuji Temple.

Shen Yun brought some fruits and snacks that the children liked to eat to the Great Sky Temple.

Nine-year-old Makoto Fukami is practicing swordsmanship in front of the main hall of the Daitenkuji Temple.

Seven-year-old Takeru Tenkuji also imitated Makoto Fukami by wielding a bamboo sword.

Five-year-old Kanon Fukami and eight-year-old Akari Yukimura were sitting on the outer veranda of the main hall, watching the two practice their swordsmanship.

"Oh my god!" When Shen Yun was sitting on the outer corridor of the main hall, Shen Hai Kanon's eyes lit up. She immediately jumped down from the outer corridor and ran to Shen Yun.

"Kane." Shen Yun smiled and squatted down as he watched Kanon Fukami run over.

Shen Haihua threw herself into Shen Yun's arms and said sweetly, "Ou Ya-san, I missed you so much."

"Oya-san misses Kanon so much." Shen Yun smiled as he picked up Kanon, then turned to look at Makoto Fukami and Takeru Tenkuji, saying, "Makoto, Takeru, you two should rest for a bit. I brought you some delicious food."

"Okay!" Makoto Fukami and Takeru Tenkuji put down their bamboo swords and ran over excitedly.

Of the four children, only Akari Tsukimura remained still.

"Akari, come over here quickly, don't be shy." Shen Yun looked at Tsukimura Akari, who hadn't made any moves, and waved with a smile.

"Okay, okay..." Akari Tsukimura joined in somewhat shyly.

Hearing the commotion outside, Naoko Fukami and Yuri Tenkuji came out of the main hall.

Seeing that Shen Yun had brought so much fruit and snacks again, Yuri Tenkuji couldn't help but scold, "Shen-kun, you came all this way, why did you bring gifts? This is really too much of a waste."

Given the relationship between their two families, there's no need for them to bring any gifts when visiting.

"Yes, don't spoil the child," said Naoko Fukami.

"What does it matter? As long as the kids are happy." Shen Yun smiled and ruffled the hair of Fukami Makoto and Tenkuji Takeru.

"By the way, are Long and the others all at the research institute now?" Shen Yun asked.

"Here I am."

"Little Kanon, I'll play with you again later." Shen Yun put Kanon down, rubbed her head, and then went into the main house.

Underground research institute.

Igarashi and Saionji are still studying the stone tablet, but they haven't made any progress in their research.

"If this continues, what should I do next... I don't know what to do anymore," Igarashi said dejectedly.

They've been researching for so many years, but still haven't found anything.

"Shut up, stop saying discouraging things, or you might as well give up," Saionji said impatiently.

He was also frustrated by the lack of progress in his research.

Tenkuji Ryu quickly reassured him, "You mustn't be impatient. Let's stop here for today and continue next time."

"I'm sorry, I'm just feeling a little tired," Igarashi said apologetically.

After saying that, he left the underground research institute.

"Useless fellow."

"Saionji, don't be so anxious."

"I don't want to either, but so many years have passed, and I've still gained nothing."

"We will definitely find a way in. I believe in everyone's strength," said Tenkuji Ryudo.

"That's good enough."

After saying that, Saionji also left the underground research institute.

Shen Yun, who had just arrived at the underground research institute in the main building, saw Igarashi and Saionji leave the underground research institute one after the other.

Shen Yun entered the underground research institute and, seeing Tenkuji Ryu tidying up the documents on the table, asked, "Ryu, what happened? Saionji and Igarashi don't look too happy. Did you two have a fight?"

"I suppose so." Tenkuuji Ryu gave a wry smile and explained, "Because there has been no progress for a long time, everyone is getting a little anxious."

"Perhaps I should reveal some of the profound insights to them."

At this moment, the stone tablet in the underground research institute suddenly resonated, and the eye patterns on the stone tablet shone brightly!

"This is... Could it be that the portal is about to open again?" Sky Temple Dragon exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the movement of the stone tablet.

After a brief tremor, the stone tablet fell silent again.

Instead, eye-shaped patterns appeared in the sky above the stone tablet.

"Shen Jun, hide with me first!" Sky Temple Dragon urged hurriedly after seeing the eye-shaped pattern.

As he spoke, Tenkuji Ryu went up the stairs to the attic.

Shen Yun followed behind Sky Temple Dragon, examining with great interest the eye-shaped patterns that appeared in front of the stone tablet.

Tenkuji Ryu pulled Shen Yun behind the desk in the attic to observe the situation below.

After the eye-shaped pattern was opened, a tiny eye spirit appeared in the middle with a "whoosh".

Then, the eye-shaped patterns closed and disappeared.

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing Eye Soul, Shen Yun had some guesses in his mind.

Could it be Edith, who developed the Eye Soul System and the Ghost Driver?

Tenkuuji Ryuya stared in astonishment at the eye soul that had fallen out of the eye-shaped pattern.

In the next moment, the eye spirit changed in Tenkuji Ryu's eyes. The eye spirit transformed into a man wearing a dark purple military uniform, with silver hair and a slightly weathered face.

This person is Edith, who came to the human world from the world of eye souls.

Upon seeing Edith, Tenkuji Ryuu's expression turned serious.

This guy was completely different from the guys he met on the street.

Is this guy a bewitching monster too?

Sky Temple Dragon can see Edith, but Shen Yun cannot see Edith at all.

"I can't see it." Shen Yun frowned.

The existence of the Eye Demon is similar to that of a ghost; the human eye cannot see the Eye Demon at all.

Edith was unaware that someone was watching him. He looked around and showed a surprised expression.

"This seems to be some kind of research institute..."

Edith, who was also interested in this underground research institute, went up to the attic.

Seeing Edith walk up to the attic, Tenkuji Ryu frowned immediately. After glancing at Shen Yun, who seemed oblivious to Edith's presence, he quickly stood up from behind the table, looked at Edith, and demanded, "Who exactly are you?!"

"?"

Shen Yun looked up at Sky Temple Dragon, then at the empty staircase in front of him, and couldn't help but stroke his chin.

Is he talking to Edith?

"?!" Edith was startled to see that Sky Temple Dragon could see her.

"Can you see me?"

I'm taking a day off tomorrow.
