If possible... he hoped to find a more perfect solution, but obviously he couldn't. Even though Suedou Akihiro's solution was full of unknowns, it was the only way to solve the dilemma now. What lay before Kanda Osamu was a road to the unknown.
"Then... cooperate with me. At least for the current situation, we are temporarily on the same side, right?"
Akimi Suedou took out a computer that emitted a light blue light, and then approached Kanda Osamu again.
"Ash?"
Along with the hot steam, the sharp Tyrannosaurus sword was raised. Omegamon watched every move of Suedou Akihiro and warned Kanda Osamu.
"..."
Kanda Osamu took a deep breath, and his remaining rationality suppressed the anger and impulse in his heart. He looked at Suedou Akimi, and finally made his own choice deep in his heart.
"Let him come, Omegamon... At least at this stage, he is still someone we can communicate with."
"Oh my goodness...that's great, move so fast!"
Mingshi Suedou walked forward calmly and operated the computer in his hand quickly. The data wall that had been broken down began to reorganize in front of them and gradually formed a new path.
"Okay, let's go. I'll help you in the next battle."
"?"
Kanda Osamu looked at the road that suddenly appeared in front of him, and he suddenly felt an unprecedented pressure. No wonder he did not feel any hesitation or fear from Suedou Akimi from the very beginning... This guy had been in control of the overall situation from the very beginning.
"You know what I'm going to do?"
"Isn't this obvious? I don't know which Royal Knight you are looking for, but this is the only way to break the impasse right now, right?"
He spread his hands casually, and then motioned for Kanda Shu to follow him.
"The communication point is ahead. It's the rest area for the Royal Knights. My hack just now must have attracted their attention. We must act quickly."
……
……
"Researcher Kagura, there is no way DATS will agree to this."
Sitting in the command room, DATS commander Rentaro Satsuma's face turned serious. He looked at the researcher in front of him solemnly, trying to make him give up that unrealistic idea.
The "Son of God" revival plan that DATS has been secretly carrying out finally made new progress yesterday. The offspring of God seems to be sealed in another space, a layer that does not exist in the digital world. Therefore, a special ceremony is required to summon him.
And this ceremony requires... five children with different qualities.
So Kagura found Satsuma Rentaro, hoping to use the power of DATS to find these people and help him complete the resurrection ceremony of the "Son of God".
However, such a proposal obviously could not get the consent of Rentaro Satsuma.
The result is still an unknown summons... He can't take such a huge risk to capture five unrelated children to complete this ritual.
Kagura Tsukasa lowered his head and did not answer. He looked very haggard due to studying all night long, but in the face of Satsuma Rentaro's rejection, he did not show any anger or unwillingness.
"Forget it... Let's put this plan on hold for now and think about whether there are any other solutions."
"I see."
After a long silence, Kagura Tsukasa finally spoke. He no longer lowered his head, obviously not wanting to say anything else. After nodding to Satsuma Rentaro, he immediately turned around and prepared to leave the command room.
Suddenly, Satsuma Rentaro seemed to remember something and asked him, "Kagura, maybe you can ask Thomas. He should be able to give you some good inspiration and enlightenment."
"..."
Kagura Tsukasa didn't say anything, but just nodded quietly. Where Satsuma Rentaro couldn't observe, the lenses on his face reflected a strange light.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Kagura and Thomas are both geniuses in DATS. To some extent, they are indeed indispensable members of DATS at present, but Satsuma Rentaro obviously did not expect that Kagura's attitude and opinion towards Thomas... are not good.
Unlike the recognized genius, Thomas H. Norstein, although Kagura Tsukasa also graduated from Stockholm National University, he is ten years older than Thomas. The title of "genius" seems to be a mockery of himself to him, especially after knowing about Thomas' existence.
He tried hard to find other ways for DATS. Perhaps in the eyes of others... it was to help the world, but in fact Kagura had never thought about these. He just wanted to prove to the world that he was a more versatile genius than Thomas H. Norstein.
Therefore, when Kagura Tsukasa heard Satsuma mention this name just now, his face and expression became a little strange.
But it was not until he returned to the laboratory that the anger and jealousy in his heart were completely released.
Chapter 159: Skull Beast (Part 1)
Countless data waves converge together like giant tree roots entwined with each other. No one could have imagined that such a large and complex data area is hidden in cyberspace.
According to Suedou Akemi, this is the Royal Knights' rest area - the communication point.
The man in the black coat walked in front. It was clearly his first time entering this area, but the familiarity he displayed was far beyond Kanda Osamu's imagination. The two continued to move forward in the "communication point".
"The Royal Knights didn't restrict your movements. It seems they didn't expect you to do such a thing." Kanda Osamu said cautiously.
"No... I think they must have thought about it."
Without even turning his head, Suedou Akihiro said, "It's just that my cooperation with Sword Emperor Beast will only last until the dimensional gate is opened."
He gently brushed the data residue on the black coat: "Before they can react, I will have disappeared without a trace."
"In that case... do you still dare to appear in front of them?"
"I can't help it. After all, this is for my lifelong wish... Actually, I'm not particularly worried." Suedou Akihiro opened his hands calmly. "After all, this body is just a virtual image, isn't it?"
Kanda Osamu remained silent. He could sense that there was something wrong with Suedou Akihiro, but he didn't know where to start.
"This matter is becoming more and more complicated. The weird [Eater], the Royal Knights... not to mention scientists like you who behave strangely. What do you want to gain from doing all this?"
Kanda Osamu asked calmly, feeling a little tired from the continuous troubles.
“You asked me this question…”
Suedou Akihiro suddenly stopped, squinted his eyes and looked at Kanda Osamu, and continued: "Of course, what I want is for humans to evolve..."
"From a stupid and miserable existence, to an existence that can enjoy the birth of this 'overly perfect and beautiful world'."
Suedou Akimi gave a mysterious smile and then said:
"In that case, we should be able to coexist with Digimon and the inhabitants of the Digital World."
Kanda Osamu's expression changed and his eyes became serious.
"The evolution of mankind... Do you want to use the power of the [Devourer]?"
[Devourers] are an unknown network entity that possesses strange erosion capabilities. However, it is this ability that can achieve miracles that were previously impossible now that the human world and the digital world are merging with each other.
Kanda Osamu originally thought that Suedou Akima was influenced by the Royal Knights and wanted to help them destroy the human world, but now it seems that he was acting purely out of personal preference.
As the situation developed, Suedou Akimi's research results had reached a point that he could no longer ignore. Even if he didn't want to admit it in his heart, he still needed to accept Suedou Akimi's help.
Just at this moment, Suedou Akihiro, who was walking in front, seemed to have discovered something. He stopped and turned to look at Kanda Osamu again.
"Oh yeah? It seems... we have found our target this time."
Kanda Osamu was startled, as if he had not expected to encounter the Royal Knights so soon. Then Suedou Akihiro continued:
"Look at that big guy in front of us. This huge amount of data... It's undoubtedly the Royal Knight."
The aura belonging to the Paladin is stirring. Kanda Osamu raised his head and looked at the skeleton knight in front of him who was holding a huge spear. Although the atmosphere was so calm, there was a lot of pressure around him.
The messenger of God, the royal knight - Skullmon.
"... Wait a moment, I need to contact someone."
Standing still, Kanda Shu stared at the paladin quietly. The communication function in the electronic EDEN space was activated, which meant that he had found the target. Kanda Shu transmitted the letter to the "World Tree" Noren.
Obviously, before Norn arrived here, he had to face a battle between paladins.
"Okay, let's go."
The two began to move forward again, but this time, neither Kanda Osamu nor Suedou Akimi concealed their steps. After they moved forward for a distance, the skull beast standing in front of the data wall finally noticed their presence.
"...I have been waiting for you for a long time, the Chosen One."
The Skeleton Knight raised the huge spear in his hand, and Kanda Shu raised his head, and what came into view was a pair of scarlet eye holes.
"As Swordmon expected... Should we say she deserves to stay in the human world for a long time?"
He walked forward slowly and took out a pitch-black shield from the dark purple alloy of time armor. He held the huge double-pointed spear in one hand. Every step the fully armed Skeleton Knight took released invisible pressure.
"I am Skeletonmon, one of God's apostles." His voice was hoarse, and the Paladin covered in the Time Digizoid Armor stepped forward step by step. Kanda Osamu vaguely sensed the difference in this metal armor... It seemed different from any Time Digizoid he had seen before.
"Let my colleagues show up, otherwise, you will stay here forever."
……
……
"The Chosen One has been found."
Dunasmon descended from the sky, delivering the message, but Aromamon, who was standing in front of the data wave, seemed to have not heard it at all. He played with the [Devourer] in his hand, using the program to modify its thinking bit by bit. The data wave in front of him was like branches entwined together, penetrating into the top layer of cyberspace.
Ever since entering the "communication point", AromaBeast has remained in this state. Although there are still many things that have not been arranged, he has not issued any instructions, and the Royal Knights have no idea what he is thinking.
He was like a lion hunting in the dark, crouching low, ready to deliver a fatal blow to its prey.
“…Where was it found?”
After a long silence, a plain question came from under the lion-like mask. Aromamon, who had remained motionless, finally turned around and looked at Dunasmon with his emerald green eyes.
"The data wall where the skull beast was found was also discovered by that human, Suedou Akihiro."
Dunasmon replied that as one of the Royal Knights staying in the human world, he was not unfamiliar with Suedou Akimi. Long before opening the dimensional gate, he had thought about whether to get rid of Suedou Akimi, who knew the insider.
"There is only one Royal Knight, Skullmon, there." He then asked, "Do you need my help to deal with the Chosen One?"
"……No."
Aromatic Beast turned his head slightly, and his eyes seemed to see through the data waves, seeing the battlefield on the other side of the wall.
"If we intervene in the battle, the Skullmon's stance...may be inclined towards the Chosen One."
Chapter 160: Skull Beast (Part 2)
"Are we just going to wait like this?"
Dunasmon obviously disagreed with what Aromamon said.
"No... Although I can't intervene in the battle, I can't do nothing either."
Aromamon sighed helplessly and continued, "If the Chosen One is defeated, he will be at the mercy of Skullmon."
"But if it's Skullmon who's defeated...you can just go ahead and take care of him and the Chosen One together."
Although he said this, Aromamon's tone was very calm, and he did not feel sad at all for ordering the killing of his colleagues.
"……I see."
Dunasmon was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"Well, let's put this matter aside for now." Aromamon closed his eyes, as if thinking about the next plan: "How is your progress? Have you confirmed the status of the electronic EDEN technology?"
"Everything is fine, but if we use it according to your plan, we will no longer be able to enter the electronic EDEN space for a short period of time." said Dunasmon.
"That doesn't matter."
As the Aromatic Beast spoke, he raised his head and looked towards the top of the area. Outside the data layer was an extremely dangerous space where the [Devourers] controlled by the Royal Knights were imprisoned. Countless strange tentacles were dancing, making a harsh sound of electricity.
"You want to make those humans suffer from EDEN syndrome?" Dunasmon guessed.
"As long as you have used the electronic EDEN space, you have left data in it... It perfectly meets the infection conditions of EDEN syndrome."
Aromamon picked up the Blade of Destruction, waved the white wings on its shoulders, and flew up from the ground.
"If you suffer from EDEN syndrome, you will fall into an endless sleep. This way... our obstacles will be greatly reduced."
……
……
"Long time no see, Omegamon."
Skullmon stared at the pure white knight in front of him. He did not rush to attack. He just took a fighting stance and raised his magic spear [Claude Solas] to aim at Omegamon.
Kanda Shu stood on Omegamon's shoulder, patted his partner's head gently, and said in a low voice:
"Don't get entangled with him for too long. There are other royal knights in this space. If we can't deal with him, we can just..."
