"As long as Erii doesn't overuse her Words of Power, there shouldn't be any possibility of her losing control."

"It's already past midnight. The reason why the Oni Clan chose to launch a surprise attack on Genji Heavy Industries at this time is definitely mainly because of Kazama Ruri."

"By the way, those two retainers of the Uesugi family, the two members of the Sumimi duo, should also be working at Genji Heavy Industries now."

"Send them over there immediately."

Given the urgency of the situation, Genji immediately called Mana Junda.

After discovering that the call was not answered, he immediately informed Princess Kaguya about it.

"Most people are resting at this time, and their phones are on silent."

"Fortunately, Princess Kaguya should be able to forcefully wake up a phone that's turned off, so once she's awake, she should be able to see the message I sent very quickly."

Yuan Zhisheng felt somewhat relieved.

He then called Tachibana Masamune, but there was no answer.

"Strange... Hasn't Dad arrived yet?"

"Given the current situation... it's probably best not to come any further."

Yuan Zhisheng's heart tightened even more.

Ding-dong-

The elevator doors opened, and he partially concealed Erii's situation, explaining to Nagumo Uzuki:

“Many family secrets are hidden inside Genji Heavy Industries. We are now heading to Kaguya’s server room. I need to temporarily use the family’s highest authority to seal off all the passages of Genji Heavy Industries.”

Seemingly worried that Nagumo Ugetsu might not understand what Princess Kaguya truly was, Genji immediately added:

"This is a super artificial intelligence developed by the family. It stores a lot of secrets and has extremely high strategic value to the family."

"She has the authority to control the entire Genji Heavy Industries. Normally, only the patriarch has this level of authority."

"Now that the Demon Clan has invaded, I can't contact the patriarch, so I have no choice but to activate wartime status and force Princess Kaguya to seal off all passages, including the drainage system."

"In that case... even if the Oni Clan rescues Kazama Ruri, they won't be able to leave Genji Heavy Industries."

"And those members of the Oni Clan who had already infiltrated Genji Heavy Industries would be separated into individual fragments due to the closure of the passages between the different levels."

"Isn't there a convenient way to control it?" Nan Yun Yuyue asked curiously. "With your authority as the director of the Executive Bureau, there must be a way to remotely control it, similar to an application software, right?"

"And just now, weren't you giving orders to Princess Kaguya remotely?"

"I have most of the permissions, but remotely controlling Kaguya to shut down Genji Heavy Industries is outside my scope," Genji sighed.

"In the entire family, only the patriarch has the authority to remotely instruct Princess Kaguya to close the building's passageways."

"Even if I am the director of the executive bureau, I can only shut it down by swiping a card after arriving at the server room in an emergency."

"I see." Nan Yun Yuyue nodded thoughtfully.

If we rush to the floor where Kazama Ruri is being held, we will inevitably be ambushed by the demons, and it's unknown how much time it will take.

However, if all the passages of Genji Heavy Industries are sealed off, then the demons and Deadpools that invaded the building will be trapped like turtles in a jar and will be wiped out one by one sooner or later.

"Kaguya's server room is also a major family secret; we need to change elevators to get there."

Genji estimated the distance.

He did not treat Nan Yun Yuyue as an outsider. Without exception, the inheritors of the 'Royal Blood' are all legitimate members of their families. Once Nan Yun Yuyue joins the Snake Clan, her status will be at least on par with his, so there is no issue of leaking secrets.

"it is good."

Nangumo Ugetsu was also quite curious about 'Kaguya-hime,' an artificial intelligence that could be compared to 'Norma' in some respects.

Princess Kaguya represented the highest level of scientific research in the entire Snake Clan and greatly contributed to their development.

Unfortunately... now that the head of the household is Tachibana Masamune, her abilities are often rendered useless.

Under Masamune Tachibana's manipulation, Princess Kaguya's abilities sometimes become accomplices of the Oni Clan.

The two quickly arrived at the next elevator.

"There are no Deadpools here; we haven't encountered a single one on this floor."

Yuan Zhisheng said.

"Princess Kaguya's server room is on the 22nd floor, and this is the only elevator that can get there."

"The layout of Genji Heavy Industries is really complicated," Nangumo Ugetsu exclaimed.

"This has been a custom of Japanese rulers for thousands of years. During the shogunate era, many daimyo built villas for themselves with many secret passages specifically for escape. The Hebi-hachi family was no exception."

Yuan Zhisheng smiled.

The elevator slowly descended.

"There are Deadpools outside this floor, be careful when opening the door."

Nan Yun Yuyue reminded him.

“Hmm.” Yuan Zhisheng’s eyes sharpened.

With Nan Yunyuyue by his side, he didn't need to worry about any possible attacks and could focus solely on fighting the enemy.

He held the spider-slicer in his hand, already in a fighting stance.

The elevator door slowly opened.

Several scarlet eyes immediately lit up in the darkness, and the snake-like deadmen's long tongues slapped in the air, emitting a stench.

next moment,

A scaly figure hissed and darted out.

Without hesitation, Genjiro stomped his foot, and the Spider Cutter unleashed a chilling arc of light.

With a sonic boom, the blade severed the head of the first snake-like Deadpool that lunged at them.

puff!

Blood spurted high into the air, hitting the metal wall at the elevator entrance with a sizzling sound.

"They're here!" Genjiro shouted in a low voice.

There are far more Deadpools than you might think.

They roam freely in this space, their flexible bodies twisting and turning as they wrap around the pillars and even climb the ceiling, launching attacks from all angles.

The spacious corridors here actually make them feel even more at ease.

"Bah!"

A Deadpool suddenly pounced down, its fangs aimed straight at Genji's head.

Yuan Zhisheng's eyes turned cold, and he swung his blade upwards, cleaving the monster in two from mid-air.

He slid forward along the momentum of the blade, flashing light repeatedly, instantly clearing an area in front of him.

"As expected of 'Amaterasu no Mikoto'... her combat experience is indeed rich."

Nan Yun Yuyue sighed.

Genjiro's combo instantly disrupted Deadpool's offensive and even cleared a space.

Without a long period of tempering between life and death, one certainly could not have achieved this level.

However, the lighting on this floor was not very bright. Logically, this floor, where Kaguya's server room is located, should be brightly lit. I wonder who deliberately turned off the power here.

The remaining Deadpool realized that the two in front of them were no match for them, so they immediately hid in the shadows, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

"left!"

Nan Yun Yuyue reminded her again.

Genji turned his head sharply and swung his sword almost instinctively.

Just as his blade fell, a Deadpool darted out of the shadows. Before its sharp fangs could even bite into its throat, the spider pierced its skull.

Its body fell to the ground, convulsing.

Relying on the detection of 'Discipline', even in the dim light, the two were barely affected.

The battle lasted only a few minutes, and the ground was already littered with corpses. The air was thick with the stench of blood and Deadpool's distinctive stench.

Genji took a deep breath.

He looked around; the bodies of the Dead Servants lay scattered on the ground, blood flowing down the surface.

He sheathed his sword, his gaze remaining solemn.

"Fortunately... this floor is full of snake-shaped deadbeats, not dragon-shaped deadbeats."

"If there were dragon-shaped dead servants, Princess Kaguya's server room would probably be destroyed."

The dragon-shaped Deadpool is far stronger than the snake-shaped Deadpool, and he is worried that the alloy door of the 'Kaguya' server room will not be able to withstand the dragon-shaped Deadpool's attacks.

"There are no Deadpools ahead, so you can just keep going."

Nanyun Yuyue said.

The two worked together, and their efficiency was far more terrifying than imagined.

As they moved forward, Genji saw several skeletons on the ground, their flesh and blood completely devoured, and a trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes.

"Ugh……"

These were clearly agents of the family stationed on this floor, but they were quickly overwhelmed by the horde of Dead Servants.

Soon, Princess Kaguya's server room came into their view.

Seeing that the gate, despite being covered in scratches, was still intact, Genji breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good that it wasn't damaged."

He swiped his black card, which granted him the authority of the bureau chief, through the gate. The alloy door creaked open, revealing the scene inside.

Nan Yun Yu Yue looked inside.

Rows and rows of metal server racks stood neatly on the floor, their interiors filled with a dense network of wires flashing faint indicator lights.

Red, green, blue, yellow... it's like a sleepless sea of ​​stars.

The cabinet housing the 'Kaguya Princess' core was even larger, and the low hum of the cooling system almost drowned out human breathing. The constant roar of the fans created a sense of oppression.

Below the ground is an elevated floor, filled with cables as thick as an arm and cooling pipes, from which cold air occasionally seeps out.

"Is this Kaguya's server room?"

Nan Yun Yuyue was somewhat surprised.

These stacked chassis constitute one of the world's top super artificial intelligence systems.

Anyone who has a sense of awe for technology will be awestruck by this.

Genji immediately walked quickly to the core of 'Kaguya-hime' and began to operate it.

"How long will it take to close the channel?"

Nan Yun Yuyue asked.

Yuan Zhisheng's brows gradually furrowed.

His face contained a mix of emotions, including disbelief, incredulity, and confusion, as if something unexpected had happened.

Nan Yun Yuyue also frowned:

"Could it be that Princess Kaguya has encountered a problem?"

“No…” Yuan Zhisheng’s voice was a little hoarse.

"I am preparing to activate the highest level of emergency privileges to have Princess Kaguya block all access routes to Genji Heavy Industries, including the underground drainage system."

"But Princess Kaguya told me..."

"The entrance to the underground from the surface of Genji Heavy Industries... has been closed by the patriarch."

"But there was none in the underground interior, or in the above-ground interior."

"Since there is already an order from the patriarch, I have absolutely no way to control the opening or closing of the Genji Heavy Industries channel."

"In other words... once the Demon Clan has infiltrated underground to rescue Kazama Ruri from the underground prison, we... can't even get into that prison now."

"In that case, even if the Demon Clan rescues Kazama Ruri, they won't be able to take him out of Genji Heavy Industries, right?" Nangumo Ugetsu asked.
