However, Garuru the orc ignored Moonrock's words and rushed straight up to him, kicking him hard.

"Wow, it seems that guy said something unnecessary. This is really troublesome."

Despite saying it was troublesome, there was no trace of annoyance on the face of the Moon Rock Mechanical. He waved one hand at Kuroyukihime, indicating that she didn't need to interfere, and used the other hand to block the attack of the beastman Garuru.

"But is it really a good idea to attack so rashly? You should know that we can be resurrected. What would happen if we paid the price of being killed once to kill those two children? You know that if we really wanted to do that, you couldn't stop us."

Instantly, Garurumon froze, Zudomon, who was watching Kuroyukihime warily, showed a look of terror on its face, and the two children who were called out were so frightened that they took a few steps back.

"Putting aside your previous relationship, just looking at your evolution process just now, it's clear that you couldn't have evolved without those two children."

With a slight smile, Yueyan took two steps back, turned to look at Kuroyukihime, spread his hands as if introducing some kind of product, and uttered cruel words.

"We'll kill those kids first, then be killed by those two Digimon. That way, when we revive an hour later, we won't be facing two dangerous Ultimate-level Digimon, but rather Rookie-level Digimon that pose no threat at all. What do you think of my proposal?"

Kuroyukihime slightly raised her blade-like right arm, seemingly quite tempted.

Seeing her reaction, the children were immediately startled, but before their fear could really take hold, Yueyan burst into exaggerated laughter.

"Just kidding, just kidding. After all, an hour of resurrection time is enough for other Digimon to come and avenge their companions. I don't want to be killed by six Ultimate-level Digimon as soon as I resurrect."

Upon hearing Yueyan's words, Kuroyukihime immediately felt like she had been tricked. She glared at Yueyan with fiery eyes, seemingly wanting to stab him.

"In this situation, the best choice is actually this."

Ignoring Kuroyukihime's anger, Tsukishiro took a deep breath and then shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Blue King, Green King, if you don't want to be hunted down and forced to quit the game, then run for your lives towards this place! This is the only weakness of those Digimon!!"

The loud, terrifying shout spread outwards like ripples, but to ensure that Lan Wang and the others could hear it, Yueyan shouted several more times before stopping, then covered his throat and coughed heavily a few times.

"Cough cough, I feel like my throat is about to crack from shouting."

Everyone present stared at Yueyan in shock, not understanding why he would do such a thing.

Kuroyukihime, in particular, felt like she was being driven crazy. She and Tsukishiro hadn't interacted much in the game before, but when they worked together in the student council, she thought he was a somewhat rigid and intelligent person, not at all like the crazy person rumored in Accel World.

However, after interacting with Yueyan a few times in Accelerated World, Kuroyukihime realized that Yueyan was a completely different person in reality and in the game. In the game, he was a madman, and his way of thinking was completely incomprehensible to normal people.

Just like now, after all his scheming and finally managing to kill Blue King and his group with the help of Digimon, he suddenly shouted and gave Blue King and his group a way out.

"What exactly do you want?!"

Unable to contain herself any longer, Kuroyukihime angrily raised her sword arm, pointed at the moon rock, and loudly questioned it.

"Well, Lan Wang and the others definitely don't believe me, but in this situation, they have no other choice but to believe me."

As if oblivious to the blade about to pierce his eye, Yueyan's face remained beaming with a smile.

"Now, shouldn't we go somewhere else to hide? Lord Black King, of course, if you'd like to continue standing here waiting for those Digimon that will fly over in two minutes at most, I have no objection."

Her anger suddenly surged, and Kuroyukihime glared fiercely at Tsukishiro before sheathing her sword.

"You'd better give me an explanation later!"

Garurumon wanted to stop the two from leaving, but remembering Moonrock's earlier threat, he could only watch them leave with resentment.

He dared not gamble with Ah-he's safety.

What do you think of Chapter Thirty-Nine?

Just as Yueyan said, although the Blue King did not trust him, he had no choice but to believe him and retreat in the direction he had shouted.

When the Blue King and the Green King, with their few remaining subordinates, fought their way back to the place where they had shouted at Moon Rock, a strong light of hope appeared in the eyes of all the Accelerators.

Because they had all seen the entrance to the underground ruins, although they hadn't guessed that all the Digimon on the island were hidden there, they all understood that once they entered the underground ruins, their opponents' flight abilities would be restricted.

Furthermore, in underground battles, to prevent collapses that could bury everyone underground and lead to mutual destruction, powerful explosive attacks are not permitted.

As a result, on the Digimon side, MetalGreymon's Ultimate Destruction Cannon, Garudamon's Shadow Wing Slash, MegaKabuterimon's Mega Horn Cannon, and Lilimon's Lilimon Cannon are all unusable.

Conversely, the blue and green Accelerators are skilled in close combat and do not possess any explosive skills that they can fully utilize.

The chosen children may not understand these things, but they know that there are a large number of Digimon in the underground ruins that need their protection. Therefore, WereGarurumon and Zudomon naturally blocked the entrance to the ruins at the first opportunity.

Garurumon was slender and easy to handle, but Zudomon was as big as a small mountain. When it stood there, it blocked most of the entrance to the ruins.

"Charge in! Charge into that underground ruin! If we can get in, we still have a chance to win!!"

The Blue King roared and swung his greatsword at the orc Garurumon. At the same time, the Green King rushed forward and used his cross-shaped shield to block the heavy hammer that Zudomon was smashing down.

"Quickly, break in before the pursuers catch up!"

Following the two, the fastest was one of Blue King's subordinates, wielding a long-handled, double-edged battle axe with a fantastical appearance. Their long-cultivated tacit understanding allowed them to coordinate their movements without any verbal exchange.

The officer used the broad blade of his axe as a shield to block the orc Garuru's claws, while Blue King slashed at Garuru's right leg with his sword.

To avoid having his legs cut off, the orc Garuru had no choice but to step aside. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Blue King and his subordinates rushed into the underground ruins at the same time.

At the same time, Green King roared and swept his shield horizontally, knocking Zudomon off balance and making it clear of the entrance to the ruins.

There weren't many surviving speedsters to begin with, and they were all in a state of high-speed escape. When they saw a gap in the entrance, they naturally rushed in without hesitation.

In just thirty seconds, a group of Accelerators, their eyes bloodshot with the urge to survive, broke through the blockade of the Werewolf Garurumon and Zudomon.

Seeing the Accelerators rush into the ruins, the Chosen Children immediately panicked. The two guards who were originally guarding the ruins chased after them. The MetalGreymon and the others who arrived later hesitated for a moment before following them in as well.

After the Accelerators and Digimon rushed into the ruins, Moon Rock and Kuroyukihime emerged from the woods on one side.

Although Yueyan said she was leaving, she didn't actually go far. She just left a little distance and then circled back from the other side.

"Black King, guess what Blue King and the others will do after they rush into the ruins?"

After glancing at the ruins, Yueyan turned his head away indifferently and looked at Kuroyukihime, asking with a frivolous smile.

It seems that Yueyan had explained his plan to Kuroyukihime in the forest, and Kuroyukihime has now calmed down and is no longer as impatient as before.

"What else can they do? Run away quickly, familiarize themselves with the terrain, find a place to hide and wait for their health to recover, and then fight the enemy. They probably have no other choice but to do that."

Unlike Yueyan, who only glanced at the ruins once and then looked away, Kuroyukihime kept her eyes fixed on the entrance to the ruins, not even when answering Yueyan's questions.

"Well, what you said earlier was correct, but what you said later was wrong."

Smiling, Yueyan shook her finger, her attitude as if a teacher were correcting a student's mistake.

"After their health is restored, they will not immediately fight the enemy, but will begin to hunt down the adult-level Digimon inside."

Upon hearing this, Kuroyukihime turned her head in surprise, her gaze shifting from the ruins to the moon rock, clearly not believing his words.

"Don't believe it? Actually, it's easy to understand. Whether it's the Blue King, the Green King, or those ordinary Accelerators, they all know that this is a protracted war. Even if they rush to the shore and hold out until an Accelerator with shipbuilding ability revives and builds a ship, they still won't be able to escape."

Seeing Kuroyukihime's reaction, Tsukishiro could naturally tell that she didn't trust him, and he explained with a smile.

"On the open sea, if they are caught by those flying Digimon, they will die on the sea because there is not enough place to fight. So their only way out is to kill all the enemies and then build a ship to leave."

"Since we're going to fight a protracted war, we need to be prepared accordingly. For the Accelerators, supplies are unnecessary. What they need is enough Accelerator Points to ensure they can revive and continue fighting after each death in battle."

Now that Yueyan has said all that, even if Kuroyukihime is slow to react, she should have realized it by now.

"You mean, before they go to war with those 'humans' and Ultimate-level Digimon, they will hunt down a large number of Champion-level Digimon to accumulate speed-up points. Although the speed-up points given by Champion-level Digimon are less than ten points, for high-level speed-up teams, killing a Champion-level Digimon is so easy that it takes less than two minutes, making it entirely feasible to farm points."

“That’s right. As long as Blue King’s brain isn’t damaged, he’ll definitely come up with this method after seeing the large number of Digimon in the ruins.”

Yueyan smiled and nodded, confirming Kuroyukihime's guess, then turned to look at the woods beside him.

"So, do you think the current situation will reverse?"

Kuroyukihime was startled and quickly looked in the direction Tsukishiro was looking, but there was no one there. Frowning, Kuroyukihime instinctively thought Tsukishiro was up to his mischievous nature again, but she immediately thought of another possibility and quickly looked up at the sky.

Sure enough, in the direction Yueyan was looking, a giant rabbit standing on two legs and over five meters tall was floating in the air, and the "human" who looked just like Yueyan was standing in the palm of this giant rabbit, coldly looking at the two people below.

"Oh? You actually realized you should look at the sky this time? That's commendable."

Smiling, Yueyan clapped for Kuroyukihime before raising his head and squinting at the person and beast in the air.

"So, what's your answer?"

P.S. I haven't updated for two days. Did you think I'd died? (laughs) Well, actually, there were a lot of things going on at home during the Chinese New Year, and a little rascal came to visit, so I just couldn't keep up with the updates.

Chapter Forty: Don't Be Too Arrogant

With a dismissive glance at Yueyan, the young Yuan Yuan didn't even bother with a mocking smirk, and simply had the Jade Rabbit Beast carry him into the ruins. That contemptuous attitude made Yueyan's eyebrows twitch wildly.

Although young Yuan Yuan was an enemy, Kuroyukihime couldn't help but give him a mental thumbs up after seeing Yueyan's reaction.

"I never expected to see you being looked down upon."

Tsukishiro glanced at the gloating Kuroyukihime, a vein throbbed on his forehead, but he didn't bother with her.

"Alright, I'm going in. You stay here and guard the entrance to the ruins. If those 'humans' try to come out, stop them if you can. If you can't, at least make a big commotion so I know."

After saying that, Yueyan rushed into the ruins.

Kuroyukihime did not question Yueyan's actions. Yueyan had already explained his plan to her in the jungle. Kuroyukihime knew that the reason Yueyan waited until now to enter the ruins was simply to confirm that all the 'humans' on the island had entered the ruins.

After separating from Kuroyukihime, who preferred head-on confrontations, Yueyan's movements became much easier. Within the ruins, he never took the brightly lit main paths, but instead silently advanced through the dark, shadowy trails.

In this ruin that should have been teeming with Digimon, Moonrock discovered that apart from the initial short stretch of road, there wasn't a single Digimon on the rest of the way.

"This situation... Could it be that Blue King and the others have gone berserk and even killed the baby and growth-stage Digimon that don't give speed-up points? Or is it to prevent the secret from being leaked and to silence all the Digimon on the road? Huh? Why is there no sound of battle at all? Are those 'humans' idiots? How could they lose track of us so quickly?"

With a pursed lip, Yueyan continued forward in the dark. After walking for about five minutes, he finally heard the sounds of battle.

He crept over quietly, and what came into Yueyan's view was not the battle between Accelerators and Ultimate-level beings, but four Champion-level Horned Dragon Beasts and three Accelerators from the Blue Legion.

While Digimon do possess a certain level of intelligence, it is generally quite simple. Moreover, the lower their evolution level, the lower their intelligence. Naturally, even a Triceratops at its Champion stage wouldn't have a very high IQ.

Therefore, when facing the Accelerators, although they had a numerical advantage and their individual strength was not inferior, they were still defeated one by one by the Accelerators. After a few minutes, they were all reduced to scattered data and a few acceleration points.

Although the battle between Accelerators and Digimon had ended, Moonrock did not leave. Instead, he squinted and continued to watch the battlefield from the shadows, seemingly waiting for something.

Sure enough, after a few minutes, Blue King and Green King emerged from around the corner with the few remaining Accelerators. Blue King lived up to his reputation as a king; although he was initially attacked by the Digimon and left with very low health, his health didn't drop even slightly during the ensuing great escape.

"Damn it, even this can't lure out that blasphemer?"

Frustrated, Lan Wang slammed his fist against the wall beside him and began to complain angrily.

“Those two bastards, Blasphemer and Black King, must have been in here a long time ago. The reason they called us here must be that Blasphemer has some kind of conspiracy that we don’t know about.”

Perhaps because the memory of being tricked by Yueyan was too vivid, the Blue King did not consider the possibility that Kuroyukihime had set a trap for them, and directly pinned the blame on Yueyan.

The taciturn Green King, who rarely spoke, nodded silently, agreeing with the Blue King's words.

Since both kings had pinned the blame on Moon Rock, his subordinates naturally couldn't refute them. So they nodded solemnly, as if they had witnessed Moon Rock setting up the trap.
