Before he arrived, his body had already been frozen by Lin Yu. However, Lin Yu's current level of control over his power was just enough to make him unable to move without showing it on his appearance. This was so that the consequences of disobeying his orders could be shown in front of the camera!

Ice crystals began to extend from beneath their feet, and the photographer's body began to tremble at the sight. However, he soon became unable to move, as Lin Yu, along with everyone else present, was frozen solid!

"I've said it before, any organization that disobeys my orders will only face death, but the Five Flying Gang seems to think they're hiding their true strength, don't you think?"

Lin Yu smiled and patted the middle-aged man's shoulder, which was not yet frozen. He would not die immediately. He would gradually die due to the loss of body temperature after being completely frozen. This process was slow, and he could even feel his life being taken away little by little!

As for the others present, although Lin Yu only heard a few words, he was certain that the program was on the side of opposing the cursed child. Therefore, although they did not deserve to die, their bodies had been completely frozen by Lin Yu, and they would definitely suffer from chronic illnesses.

Lin Yu couldn't be sure if he could come back next time, or when he could come back, so he had to do this, he had to intimidate everyone in the limited time he had!

Click!

Once the azure ice crystals completely enveloped the middle-aged man, he stood in the studio like a lifelike sculpture, with almost everyone looking at this 'hero' with a gentle smile on his lips in horror.

"I will give you one last chance. Ten hours. If the cursed child belonging to your Five Flying Society has not been delivered to Tokyo within ten hours, I will completely destroy your organization without mercy!"

After saying that, Lin Yu disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only a 'lifelike' ice sculpture and the group of people whose bodies were frozen stiff in the deathly silence of the studio...

[Recently, many readers have complained that the updates are too slow and the story isn't getting enough chapters... I've said it many times: Nocturne isn't a full-time writer; I have a regular job, and I only have time to write after work. Maintaining 4000 words a day is already exhausting, but I haven't missed a single update since the book started. Qidian offers a lot of bonus coins, and if I don't post long chapters of 4000 words, I can't possibly collect them all. So, while it may seem like I'm updating less, it doesn't actually make a difference. Did you know that last month, after working myself to the bone, my royalties were only 900 yuan? Please stop trampling on such cheap labor!] (To be continued.)

212. An unsuccessful attempt at peeping is known to everyone! [Two-in-one]

Time flies, and there are only thirteen days left before Lin Yu leaves this world. Fortunately, Lin Yu's series of bloody methods have successfully shocked everyone, and the whole world has begun to take action under his power. The only airport left in the Tokyo area after the Gastrea War is now full every day, with planes from all over the world arriving almost every moment.

There are countless children of curses in this world, and only a small fraction of them are chosen by IISO to become Initiators. The majority of them are incapable of fighting. The arrival of tens of thousands of children has kept the Holy Emperor busy. Fortunately, the antipathy towards children of curses in the Tokyo area has been reduced to a minimum, otherwise there would probably have been a riot by now.

After all, the existence of the Cursed Child was like a time bomb to ordinary people. How could people not be worried when tens of thousands of time bombs came to their city?

This is where Lin Yu and Xia Na's prestige in the city truly shines. If anyone else in the world claimed they could cure the corruption rate of the Cursed Children, regardless of whether people believed it or not, what would they care? For ordinary people, their only concern would be their own safety.

What if these children turn into Gastrea on their way here? This question will inevitably become the biggest concern for ordinary people, and it will most likely turn into demonstrations or even large-scale riots. It is already quite remarkable that the Tokyo area can maintain stability.

"Only thirteen days left?"

After a busy day, the Holy Emperor soaked in the bathtub in the Holy Residence. His thoughts drifted back to ten years ago, when he was young and ignorant. He had opened the partition between Lin Yu and Xia Na while they were taking a bath, and was given a good scolding.

But looking back now, it seems that Lin Yu did express some praise at the time?

"What a perverted uncle."

Although she was muttering to herself, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Seitenko's mouth. In the ten years since the Gastrea War, she had rarely smiled. Because of the disappearance of Lin Yu and Shana, she was unilaterally cut off from contact and friendship by the stubborn Kisara. Seitenko's status as the top person in the entire Tokyo area also made it impossible for her to come into contact with any other children her age. Even Kisara was only qualified to come into contact with her because of his special status.

Unfortunately, the two broke up completely because of this misunderstanding, and the young girl could only learn how to govern the city that had survived thanks to the protection of Lin Yu and Xia Na.

"I wonder if things went smoothly for my uncles and the others today."

The time spent bathing was a rare opportunity for the Holy Emperor to relax, and his thoughts began to wander aimlessly.

"Uncle and the others should be starting to fight the Zodiac Gastrea now. I wonder which one it will be. We should go and check on them as soon as possible."

Although she was a little reluctant to leave the comfortable bath, out of concern for Lin Yu and Shana, she decided to go to the projection screen early to keep watch. Although she was very confident in Lin Yu and Shana's teamwork, they were fighting the most powerful monster in the world. Even if she couldn't help, she could still pray for their safety.

Thinking this, the Holy Emperor stood up from the bath, and almost at the same time, a strange sound rang out from the bath.

Pfft!

The sound of a heavy object falling into the water was accompanied by a loud, careless complaint.

"Ugh, that damn Centaur, he shouldn't have died so easily! Holy crap, where am I?"

Lin Yu wiped the water droplets from his face, feeling even more frustrated.

"If that guy hadn't died, I'd be letting him off easy by torturing him a thousand or eight hundred times!"

His originally delicate face was now covered in black soot, and after being splashed with water, he looked even more comical and pathetic, like an African refugee.

"Isn't it because you underestimated Sagittarius's power, Xiaoyu? Didn't you already know that monster could even shoot down satellites in space?"

Sagittarius, an extremely rare stage V among zodiacal Gastrea, possessed ultra-long-range attack capabilities. In the early stages of the Gastrea Wars, it shot down a large number of human satellites, leaving many regions without their own satellites.

"How was I supposed to know it would penetrate three layers of ice crystals in succession? By the way, where am I? Aya, I didn't ask you to send us to Saint-chan's place..."

Lin Yu originally just wanted to find a topic to change the subject of this sad story, but he discovered a very serious problem.

—Rising steam, warm water, and a closed environment!

“This is definitely the place!” Gaia’s tone was utterly innocent.

Well, with the Holy Emperor here as well, if Lin Yu still doesn't know where he is, then he really should get his head checked.

She turned her head stiffly, and two sharp shouts rang out almost simultaneously.

"Don't look!" ×2

In the blink of an eye, taking advantage of having the back of his head facing Shana, Lin Yu quickly turned his gaze to take in the entire white expanse. At the same time, he awakened his naked-eye camera skill, taking in every detail he saw at a rate of thousands of shots per second and storing it deep in his mind. The whole process took less than 0.1 seconds, and his head didn't even move an inch. After doing all this, Lin Yu turned his head back to show his innocence. Such a stealthy process went unnoticed not only by Shana standing behind Lin Yu, but even by the Holy Emperor himself.

"Gaia! See him outside!"

Shana reacted in a mere 0.1 seconds and quickly shouted out. Lin Yu also disappeared from the bathroom in an instant. The Holy Emperor, who was about to call the guards, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tsk tsk, even that part is white."

Lin Yu smiled sinisterly, even speaking with smug satisfaction.

"Who goes there!"

The sudden sound startled Lin Yu, and even the person who shouted it was quite frightened. Anyone would probably be scared half to death if a living person suddenly appeared next to them.

"Holy crap, don't let it go off the rails!"

Lin Yu instinctively reached out and covered the muzzle of the gun, but he was too late.

Bang!

A muffled thud rang out, and the still-shaken guard stared wide-eyed at the gun that had exploded, then looked at his hand, which was now blackened but hadn't bled at all, and became even more bewildered.

"You better look carefully before you shoot!"

Lin Yu was immediately enraged. He had already received a nice perk for having his face smeared with black smears before, but now his hands were also covered in black smears, making his expression even more unpleasant.

"There are assassins!"

To everyone's surprise, the guard didn't stop talking after a moment of stunned silence. Instead, he shouted out a line that was absolutely awful.

"Assassin, you bastard! Do you think this is a period drama? Look who I am!"

Lin Yu was already incredibly frustrated, and this idiot guard's shouting only fueled his anger.

"Holy crap! Are you ever going to shut up?!"

The guard ignored Lin Yu's words and pulled out another pistol from his pocket while retreating. Lin Yu was about to get angry when he suddenly remembered something very important. His lips twitched and he froze all the incoming bullets into small ice cubes.

"I am Lin Yu!"

The cold voice made the guards instinctively tremble, and more guards swarmed in from all directions, all aiming at Lin Yu.

"Put down your guns, all of you!"

As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, bursts of icy blue flames ignited in front of all the guards, causing many of them to nearly drop their guns.

"Hero... Lin Yu?"

The first guard asked this question cautiously, and Lin Yu nodded with a dark face. And then…

Pfft...

The guard couldn't help but burst out laughing. Before Lin Yu could get angry, he quickly straightened his face, looking like he was about to explode but had to hold it in. Lin Yu, who was so angry that he almost killed the guards, just like that.

"Damn, you really do bad things and get your comeuppance. This comeuppance came way too fast!"

Lin Yu turned and left with a dark expression. He had only taken a few steps when more of those uncontrollable snickers sounded behind him...

"Um... Uncle, why were you in such a... sorry state before?"

In the Holy Emperor's room, although the dirt on Lin Yu's face had been washed off, his complexion was still as black as charcoal. If it weren't for the two little creatures on his shoulders entering 'puppet mode' again, he would have suspected that they were playing a trick on him. Otherwise, why would he be so unlucky...

"Don't even mention it! Who knew that Sagittarius's attack would be so powerful!"

Lin Yu looked depressed when this was mentioned. He and Shana were preparing to kill a zodiac gastrulator every day as usual, and this time he chose Sagittarius.

Originally, he thought that apart from the incredibly strong defensive Gastrea of ​​the zodiac, Libra, they wouldn't encounter any obstacles. Who knew that before he and Shana could even launch an attack, their presence was detected by Sagittarius. Two beams piercing the sky struck them almost immediately after they appeared. At this moment, their responses differed. Shana flapped her wings, avoiding contact with the beams and easily dodging them, while Lin Yu instinctively constructed three ice walls in front of him as a defense. He thought that would be enough, but the three ice walls were breached in a matter of minutes, and he himself was covered in ice. Although his strength had improved rapidly, he was still far behind Shana in terms of combat experience.

Of course, this is also because he didn't take Sagittarius seriously at all; otherwise, he wouldn't have only built three ice walls for defense.

"In the end, it's because you underestimated your opponent, Xiaoyu."

As Lin Yu's mentor in combat skills, Shana was a ruthless critic and educator. Lin Yu, who was already no match for Shana, could only listen obediently, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to be beaten.

"Thankfully, you're alright."

The Holy Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. This action made Lin Yu instinctively swallow, as he still had a lot of video data stored in his mind!

As it turns out, although the Holy Emperor appears to be a peaceful princess on the surface, he is actually the kind of person who is moderately sized but hidden!

"Xiaoyu, you didn't see anything you shouldn't have seen in the bathroom earlier, did you?"

Shana looked at Lin Yu suspiciously. This girl was quite sensitive about this kind of thing, and she knew Lin Yu's character very well. She was a little suspicious when she thought about how Lin Yu had turned his head away so readily before.

"No, my uncle didn't even look in my direction before turning his head away."

Although his fair cheeks flushed red, the Holy Emperor still spoke up in defense of Lin Yu.

What a wonderful girl! Lin Yu's ears were practically burning.

"Is that right?"

Shana looked Lin Yu up and down, then pursed her lips but didn't say anything more. Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He knew in his heart that he had been let off the hook. If it weren't for the fact that the Holy Emperor was still here, Lin Yu would probably be in a terrible situation.

"Uncle, what brings you here?"

The Holy Emperor, having served as head of state for so many years, is quite adept at changing the subject.

"Oh, nothing, I just wanted to ask how the children who came to Tokyo are settling in?"

The interlude is over, and it's time to get down to business; we all agree on that.

"Although the supplies have already been sent over, is it really okay to store them in the outer perimeter area?"

The outer perimeter, an area extremely close to the monolith, has always been a hiding place for the cursed children who lack combat abilities. Given Lin Yu's status and position, he could have easily secured a better location, but he chose that place instead.

"It's like how I chose that abandoned school before. Even if the problem of the corruption rate is solved, the children of the curse are not so easy to be accepted. They also need a place to live. So nothing can unite people more than a home they build themselves. You know, Shana and I don't have much time left."

The number of cursed children who have come to Tokyo has reached tens of thousands, and that number will likely double in the coming day.

"Alright, since the children are all fine, we won't disturb your rest any longer."

Lin Yu smiled at the Holy Emperor and left with Xia Na. The Holy Emperor only breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest after the two had completely disappeared.
