Azure Files, the starting point of all miracles

On the other side, listening to Saori's report, Xiyu couldn't help but frown slightly.

The fact that Saori and her team were able to sneak so close to Caesar's commander so easily was not only due to their own outstanding special operations experience, but also inseparable from the technical support provided by Liyin.

Is it called "optical camouflage"?

With the concealment provided by all this, it was more than enough to capture Caesar's commander.

To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. There is nothing wrong with this from a tactical planning perspective.

But...Caesar was different from any army he had ever seen before.

Although there is a "commander", Caesar's troops are almost entirely composed of machines, so even if they lose their commander, it will not have any impact on the team.

It even seems that, to some extent, Caesar's commanders were deliberately released for deceptive effect.

His consciousness is likely located within the collective network of Caesar's forces.

In this case, the effect of beheading would definitely be minimal.

——Thinking of this, Xiyu quickly rejected the idea of ​​beheading.

After all, the most important thing now is to destroy the device that blocks the signal first.

Only in this way can Liyin seize the opportunity to seek help from the outside world as quickly as possible.

"..."

Just as Xiyu gave the order and Team Arius and others took action, Liyin, who had been observing Xiyu for some time, suddenly spoke.

"Teacher, please forgive me for being so presumptuous..."

Xiyu: “?”

"Why is that special tablet device that you usually carry with you not with you now?"

As Liyin spoke, a light called "doubt" flashed in her terrifying red eyes.

Although Liyin didn't know much about the Shiting Box, through observation and some information collected in the past, she had been able to infer some of its abilities.

For example, protecting Xiyu from being harmed by external factors.

In response to Liyin's question, Xiyu blinked and smiled awkwardly.

"Well, actually I needed it somewhere else, so I didn't bring it with me."

"The relics of Purnapates."

Liyin: “…”

Puranapatas——The pioneer of [color].

The culprit who nearly brought destruction to Kivotos.

That's all Liyin knew.

However, there is one thing that Liyin doesn't know.

That is Purnapates and Xiyu, who are actually the same person.

Or to be more precise, it is the same person who took two different paths due to different experiences at different timelines.

But no matter what, he is indeed himself - Xiyu is very sure of this.

And that Puranapatis had the same idea.

Precisely because I know it is myself, I believe that the me who has taken a completely different path will be able to stop my current self.

And in order to prevent all this from happening again, Purnapates left a gift for Xiyu when he met his final end.

That is the "memories" from the past.

Who do you want to protect? Who do you want to save?

Will and determination alone are not enough.

The miracles created by the "Adult Cards" will eventually be exhausted at the price that must be paid.

By then, will he still be able to protect these students who are important to him?

After all, if you want to protect something, you still need to have the corresponding power!

In the past, Xiyu, who had traveled through many worlds, was severely damaged when facing the end.

Immediately afterwards, he completely lost his body on the land called "Terra".

Although his soul was rebuilt with the help of the president of the Federation Student Union, he lost almost everything he had.

Knowing what happened to him, after becoming the pioneer of color, Purnapates secretly used this power, combined with the miracles summoned by the adults' cards, to successfully summon the "memories" of the past.

However, in order to prevent this "memory" from being affected by "color", Purnapates left them with a lot of restrictions.

Even for Alona and Prana, it would take some time to completely untie them.

This is why Xiyu did not bring the Shiting Box with him now.

This is also the origin of Xia Lai’s batch of “luggage”.

——After learning all this from Xiyu, Liyin fell silent again.

She looked at the man in front of her, her lips slightly opened, as if she wanted to say something, but it was as if something was blocking her mouth and she couldn't make any sound.

In the end, all the complicated thoughts and emotions turned into just a sigh from the girl.

Teacher...you are really...

It’s worrying…

Chapter 73: Liyin, come back and have a look after all this is over.

What a beautiful day today is~

The birds are singing, the flowers are blooming~

boom! ! ! ! !

A sudden explosion sounded an exciting melody.

Looking at the signal shielding tower destroyed by a laser cannon that came from nowhere, the commander of Caesar's troops was stunned at first, and then a flame called "anger" quickly emerged on his cold mechanical face.

"Who! Who is it?!"

"What on earth do the troops in charge of security do? From now on, we will sit at the same table with Xiuyuan and Tokugawa from the intelligence department!"

Not to mention Commander Caesar who was furious because the signal blocking tower was destroyed.

After completing the mission, Arius's team was preparing to deal with the enemy's upcoming counterattack, but they unexpectedly discovered that their reaction was not as intense as they had imagined.

In other words, it was not directed at them who destroyed the signal shielding tower.

Carrying the high-tech laser cannon provided by Yurine on her shoulder, Misaki looked at the enemy in the distance but did not rush to fire. Instead, she looked at Saori beside her with an inquiring look.

"Captain, does the teacher have any other arrangements?"

"The teacher asked us to retreat immediately."

Saori replied.

Atsuko was not surprised at all: "Should I say you are worthy of being a teacher?"

"This kind of instruction is really in his style~"

The feeling of being loved...I really want more of it.

Could it be that I am being too greedy?

Through the mask, Atsuko's eyes flickered softly in the darkness.

Arius and the other three had no intention of objecting to their teacher's instructions.

Apart from some regrets about Hiwa——

"I have such a powerful weapon, but I can't use it."

"As expected, life is full of pain... hehe..."

Holding the high-tech sniper rifle provided by Yurine in his arms, Hiyori said reluctantly.

Their original weapons were temporarily placed at Liyin's base due to insufficient ammunition.

What she possesses now are all high-tech weapons developed and manufactured by Liyin in a short period of time.

"Okay, stop talking about this meaningless nonsense."

After interrupting Hiyori's mumbling, Misaki pulled her to catch up with Saori and Atsuko.

"Let's go back quickly. Don't forget, the teacher is still waiting."

"Misaki... have you really been trained by the teacher?"

Misaki: “…”

Minghui was always like this, but for some reason, today he always managed to make Misaki angry again and again.

*Why do human bodies have so many meaningless emotions...

*This body... is really in the way.

Mumbling something in her heart with some dissatisfaction, just when Misaki was about to teach Hiyori a lesson, an unexpected figure came through their headphones.

"Everyone in Team Arius, this is Tiao Yue Li Yin, can you hear me?"

"Please return to the base as quickly as possible. Our position may have been exposed. The teacher needs protection."

“——!”×4

After hearing Liyin's report, the four people who were originally feeling a little relaxed because the mission was completed, suddenly showed terrible expressions.

The next second, there was no communication.

The four members of Arius's team sprinted at full speed in the direction they came from, even at the risk of being noticed by the enemy.

Just to rush back to the teacher -

The teacher is the first person in the world who is willing to be nice to them.

Not only did he save them, he also taught them various things, allowing them to learn how to capture the light of the morning star in this dark night sky.

So, for the teachers, for the adults who have always valued and cared for them.

The Arius team is willing to risk everything!

----

----

Just as the Arius team began to return, at the base, Liyin also bowed deeply to the teacher with a look of shame on her face.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, this is all my fault."

"But please rest assured that I will ensure your safety at all costs."

It turned out that when Arius's team destroyed the signal tower, although Liyin successfully sent out a distress signal, its approximate location was also captured by Caesar's people.

Now, Caesar's soldiers scattered around are rushing towards this area quickly.

However, Xiyu had no intention of blaming Liyin for her guilt.

"Liyin, don't let everything be blocked by yourself."

"The conditions are limited now, and it's remarkable that you can achieve this step."

"You know, you managed to defeat Caesar's entire army by yourself. Who else in Kivotos could do that?"

"…If it's Himari."

"Ahem, let's not talk about this for now."

Originally, Xiyu wanted to comfort Liyin, but she didn't expect that the child would be so serious.
