This is not the date I wanted.

————————————————————————————I am the dividing line for shifting perspective——————————————————————

Kotori held her breath for a moment. She looked at the device in her hand in disbelief. She clearly did not press the button, but the information displayed on the screen did indicate that the "Dáinsleif" had been activated.

"What's going on? Is there a malfunction?"

Origami asked hurriedly. She had been on guard against Kotori pressing the button, and this unexpected change made her look a little flustered, which was unusual for her.

"No, that's not the case. But why is it——"

Kotori shook her head to deny the possibility. With sweat on her forehead, she hurriedly tapped the keyboard, trying to cancel the launch command.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it—"

However, it was too late.

A flash of light as bright as the morning star appeared in the dark night sky.

"Shidou——!!"

It's over! Qin Li couldn't help but think painfully in her heart.

Next, Shidao's body was pierced by the satellite cannon, and even his healing ability could not save him, and he left him forever.

Not wanting to accept this fact, Kotori closed her eyes tightly.

One second passed——

Two seconds passed—

Three seconds passed—

"what……"

The expected explosion and shockwave did not appear, and Kotori opened her eyes in confusion. She found that everyone was looking at her with a puzzled expression.

"Ahem... everyone, what happened to Dáinsleif?"

After coughing awkwardly, Kotori asked seriously.

"If it was the three meteors just now, they have already disappeared on the other side of the sky."

Nanashi answered.

Three? Kotori looked up at the sky in confusion.

There is no doubt that the light that just appeared was the bombardment of the Dáinsleif, but why was the target not Shidao? And why did they deliberately fire three shots in different directions?

"Ah? Maruna and Maria. Oh, I see. Thank you for your hard work."

Suddenly hearing this conversation, Kotori turned around abruptly. Liangyi Mengyue had just hung up the phone, and unlike other elves, there was no surprise on her face, as if she had expected the current situation.

"Sister Mengyue..."

Kotori felt as if she understood something. There was only one person in this world who knew of the existence of Dáinsleif and was able to hack into and modify its attack commands.

"You'll know after a little thought. It's unrealistic to ask a little girl who's only in junior high school to kill her own brother. Not to mention whether it's cruel or not, it's also a question whether it can be done. If I give this to you, either I think you won't do it, or I'm a complete fool."

As if understanding Qin Li's doubts, Meng Yue explained with a matter-of-fact expression.

"Then it's not surprising that one or two guys secretly prepared the same thing behind your and Woodman's backs."

"Well……"

This is a very convincing inference. Especially after seeing what happened just now, she was speechless. Qin Li looked at Meng Yue with a somewhat dissatisfied look.

"Well, don't look at me like, 'Why didn't you tell me earlier?' Okay? I was just preparing for the best."

Gently touching Kotori's little head, Mengyue looked at Shidao who was gradually moving away from her and said in a deep voice.

"I told you, there's no problem...there's definitely no problem."

23 The Elves’ Return of Gratitude (Part )

==============================

In the past, Mengyue had seen a very interesting question in a book.

A teacher drank half of a cup full of water, then placed it in front of the students and asked a question.

--What's this?

Some students answered, a cup with half water left.

Some students also said a cup with half of the water drunk.

Some clever students said that the cup could be filled halfway with water.

The teacher did not confirm or deny any of the answers, but after hearing one student's answer, a smile appeared on his face.

——A container that can hold anything.

It is obviously the same object, but different people get completely different answers from their perspectives.

In fact, Mengyue encountered a similar situation not long ago.

In November, facing the Elf Origami who fell into despair and turned around, Meng Yue came to the conclusion that "it cannot be saved".

When faced with the same question, Shidao's answer was "she can be saved", and he used his actions to prove his idea to Mengyue.

So now, Mengyue began to ask herself questions.

What situation is Shidao in now?

Answer: The spiritual power channel is congested, the power is out of control, and the mind is lost. There is an impenetrable high-density spiritual power barrier surrounding. If left unchecked, everything around will be destroyed.

How is everyone's health now?

Answer: The power is sealed, and spiritual energy cannot be supplied from the spiritual energy channel. Judging from the situation before Qi Sins, the only spiritual energy left in the body is the limit of deploying partial spiritual equipment for five minutes.

So, can Shidou be saved?

can.

Meng Yue answered with a firm answer.

For Kotori, Shido's rampage is the most dangerous situation that she has been trying to avoid. For the upper echelons of Ratatoskr, it is just a chess piece in their hands that has lost control.

For Meng Yue, this was just a crisis that disturbed her daily life. To be honest, in her opinion, the situation when Origami was in was much more dangerous than this.

If that's the case, then just get over it like you always did.

Looking up and looking forward, Meng Yue saw a "beast" surrounded by dazzling light running straight forward in the forest.

"Ratziel (Sage of the Dawn)."

Following Mengyue's call, the familiar mechanical bow with only a wristband appeared on Mengyue's right wrist. This is the mode in which she can currently best save spiritual power while ensuring efficiency.

[Calculation begins——Future prediction starts.]

Vision, hearing, touch, smell, sixth sense - all the information that the body can collect is now collected by the Dawn Sage for ultra-high speed processing, and finally handed over an answer to Meng Yue that is almost like predicting the future.

"... Yui, Yakushi. Get ready."

After whispering something while pressing her earphones, Meng Yue held her breath and stared at Shidao intently.

boom--! boom--! boom--!

The dense forest was crushed and squeezed out by the spiritual power shield, leaving exaggerated traces. It was more like trampling than running. With every step taken by Gokawa Shidao, the earth would tremble and roar.

But none of these could shake Meng Yue in the slightest.

"...5."

Meng Yue started to count down.

"4...3...2...1!"

As the countdown ended, a huge explosion suddenly occurred less than one meter in front of Shidao Gokawa. A huge assault rifle rose from the ground in front of Shidao, and mud gushed out like a geyser.

Before Shidou could react, several strong chains bound his limbs tightly.

"Ku Ku - where are you going? It's all my property."

"Capture. I won't let you escape from Xixian's hands next time."

Ignoring the indestructible spiritual barrier surrounding Shidou, the Yamai sisters, with their partial spiritual outfits deployed, appeared in front of Shidou.

Judging from the results calculated by the Sage of Dawn, the possibility of successfully breaking through the spiritual power barrier on Shidao's body is extremely low. Even for Yamai, who has the fastest speed and powerful offensive power, the success rate is only 10%. For the elves whose spiritual power is almost exhausted, it is almost a choice of suicide.

But, so what? Meng Yue asked calmly.

It has never been Meng Yue's style to go head-on against her opponent's strengths.

Indeed, in the sky, in all directions, the spiritual barrier almost completely surrounded Shidao. However, this shield did not cover the bottom, and Shidao running on the ground was the best evidence.

Fortunately, Amamiya City and its nearby suburbs have been transformed by Kotori and her team. Less than twenty meters underground is Ratatoskr's underground facility.

Then the problem is simple. With the help of the Sage of Dawn, we can calculate Shidao's movement trajectory and let the Yami sisters ambush at the corresponding locations in the underground facility. After receiving the signal, they can break through directly to the ground.

It turns out that compared to that spiritual barrier, the twenty-meter-thick land is as vulnerable as paper in front of Yejuya's angel "EL Re'em (Piercer)".

"But...is there no other way? My fellow countrymen, the feeling of being contaminated by filth is quite uncomfortable."

"It's uncomfortable. Xixian must take a good bath."

Smelling the fishy smell of soil emanating from their bodies, Yui and Yakushi complained with bitter faces.

[You should be thankful that there is a way. You are not given any choice now.]

Hearing the answer from their friend in the headset, the two looked at each other and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Mengyue took great pains to create such a great opportunity for them, so they naturally had no reason to miss it.

"Shidou——Now, we are here to save you."

"Repay a favor. Just like what you did to Yui and us, Shidou."

With their bodies close to Shidou, Yakuya and Yui approached Shidou's face from both sides while talking - and kissed his lips.

In an instant, Yakuya and Yui felt their bodies heating up slightly, as if their stopped blood had resumed flowing, and their whole bodies were filled with strength.

"This... does this mean that the passage has been opened?"

【Get out of the way! 】

Before the Yami sisters could finish their sigh, they heard Mengyue's urging voice in their ears. Without hesitation, the two of them stepped back and put some distance between themselves and Shidou.

“—Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

The next moment, Shidou roared and released a powerful shock wave from his body.

Compared to breaking in from the outside, it is obviously much easier to get out from the inside. Yui and Yakuya flew out of the spiritual barrier with the force of the shock wave, and then quickly stabilized their posture.

After removing the obstacles in front of him, Shidou sprinted towards the city again.

However, the moment he took the first step, Gokawa Shidao felt a huge resistance. He looked down and found that the chains wrapped around his limbs were not shaken away by the shock wave just now.

A hundred meters behind Shidao, four long chains had wrapped around the waists of nearly a hundred large trees. The forest had become a heavy burden that slowed down Shidao's movements.

"I reiterate. I will not let you escape from Xixian's hands."

Holding the angel "EL Nahash (The Binder)" tightly in his hand, a rare gleam of light flashed in Xixian's listless eyes.

“——Aaaaaaah!”

However, even with dozens of tons of resistance, Shidao still relied on unimaginable strength to move forward step by step. However, compared with before, the speed was undoubtedly greatly reduced.

——Buzz buzz buzz!

Then, a helicopter suddenly appeared right above Shidao, moving parallel to him. The door slowly opened, and Yoshino's petite figure appeared inside the helicopter.

"Yoyo~ Yoshino-chan, don't worry. I will definitely send you to Shidou in one piece."

“Yeah… I’ll do my best too… Yoshina…”

Hearing the reliable answer from the rabbit doll in her hand, Yoshino nodded firmly.

……

Seeing that things were going smoothly as planned, Meng Yue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Yajuya, how is the recovery of your spiritual power?"

[Kuku, now I have no rivals in front of me! ]

Ignoring Yakuya's lines that were still full of chuunibyou, Mengyue asked Yoshino who was waiting in the helicopter.
