Danrito, become a consultant for the Millennium Game!

Danrito slowly descended to Alice's side. Alice finally completed the separation and gasped for breath. Her body was about to fall backwards. At this time, Danrito caught Alice's body.

"Tan...Mr. Lidou..." Alice gasped and struggled to ask, "Alice, what's wrong?"

"Infection with the Collapse Virus." Regardless of whether Alice understood or not, he gave her the correct answer. Danrito watched the virus gather into a humanoid form before him. After a few seconds, the Collapse Virus formed into... Alice?

"So, that's... me?"

Alice twisted her head with difficulty, watching as the virus gathered before her, forming its own image. Like her, it wore the same Millennium Academy uniform, had the same ankle-length hair, the same slender limbs, the same fair skin, and the same perfect, girlish appearance. Then, that 'self' opened its eyes.

Those were purple-red eyes without a trace of emotion.

"..."

Alice opened her eyes, moved her wrists, and glanced at her body, seeming to be confused as to why she appeared in this form. She then looked at the strange scene around her, feeling a little unbelievable about herself flying in the air. Finally, she fixed her gaze on Alice in front of her, and Danrito.

"Why am I here? Why am I not inside AL-1S?"

"I can't understand... Never mind, it's not important."

Alice shook her head, then looked back at the Alice in front of her. It was like she had met her own doppelganger, as in the legend. Alice looked a little scared. "What's going on?"

"The complete form of the Collapse Body is actually the same as its original form?" Danrito looked at Alice in front of him. "This is the first time I've seen such an example. Hey, can you communicate?"

"Don't talk to me, if you're not important."

Alice in front of her looked indifferent. She turned directly to Alice in front of her. Although her expression was indifferent, her eyes could not hide her attention to Alice: "My precious princess..."

"W-What are you talking about? Alice doesn't understand. Alice is a hero, not a princess..."

Alice finally regained control of her feet and questioned herself who suddenly appeared in front of her: "Who are you?"

"That's right. If there's no title, it wouldn't be easy for Your Highness to address me, right?"

The girl before her, who looked just like Alice, introduced herself to her. "My code name is 'Key,' and I exist to assist Your Highness, the Princess, in bringing destruction to this world."

The girl who called herself Key looked up at Alice, who was completely confused by the situation. "In order to fulfill your duty, please accept what I am going to say next..."

"Wait a minute, you guys talking to yourself over there, don't you take me seriously?"

Danrito suddenly spoke from the side, interrupting Key's thoughts. He circled around Alice and pointed at the girl, his expression rather annoyed. "You, aren't you a little too arrogant for a newly born Collapse-Origin Body? It's one thing not to say hello, but you've ignored me time and again. Aren't you taking me too seriously?"

"I have confirmed that I am obstructing the operation and have determined that I am in need of erasure..."

Key, having copied Alice from her body, was an exact replica, even possessing the same electromagnetic cannon. She untied the cannon from her body. She sensed the formidable nature of Danrito before her, and it seemed that her conversation with the princess would be impossible unless she dealt with him.

So she raised her weapon decisively.

"—Execute Protocol 'ATRAHASIS'."

Danrito took out the drive from behind him, clasped the two cassettes in his hands, raised his eyebrows, and waved provocatively at Key: "Come on, let me see what you can do."

107. Are you happy? I am very happy

For Alice, what happened today almost overturned her previous peaceful daily cognition.

A girl who looks just like him, holding the same sword of light as him, and the adult who always has a bad expression fight in the game field.

Danrito has already inserted the card and transformed into Kamen Rider. With the help of the Level X cartridge, he easily crushed the girl who called herself Key at the beginning, and beat her with a punch that made her lose her mind.

"Hahaha! Didn't you say you were going to wipe me out? Where's your arrogance just now?"

Each of Danrito's punches sent Key flying backwards. The unreasonably powerful force, coupled with his body's inability to adapt, initially caused Key considerable pain. Each blow from the purple-tights bastard was like a hammer. Even as he strained to block the impact with his electromagnetic cannon, he could still clearly feel the pounding blows piercing through the weapon.

"Ugh! Data correction, threat level increased, counterattack!"

Key swung the electromagnetic cannon in his hand and tried to knock Danrito away, but he didn't expect the opponent to be so strong, and was knocked away by a punch instead - ever since Danrito was asked a question during the last battle at the night amusement park, he decided not to show off in the basic form anymore!

"Ugh—" Key rolled on the ground for a few rounds and managed to stand up. She could feel pain all over her body, which made her confused: "…I, it was just an order? Why do I feel pain?"

"Because you are now a 'collapse source body', you are no longer an order."

Danrito flexed his wrist and descended from the sky, leaving a deep dent in the ground. He looked at the wary Key and smiled, "You've been trying to call out something since a while ago. How's it going? Did you get the reaction you wanted?"

Key shook his head. "...complete silence. What did you do?"

"Of course, this isn't the real world, it's the game world I created!!"

Danrito opened his arms and laughed heartily, his expression full of the sunny and cheerful look of a big boy. "You must be trying to call out to those robots under the ruins, right? What a pity! In this completely virtual world, it's impossible for you to call for help from outside!"

"Completely...virtual?"

Key keenly grasped this key word. Just now, Danrito said that she was no longer a code, but something called "Bolting Source Body". Although he didn't know what this word meant, as long as he calmed down and felt his own body, with Key's ability, he would naturally understand what kind of existence the body of "Bolting Source Body" was.

"Status information has been recorded, usage inferred - successful."

Key, understanding her own body and the nature of the Collapse Body, understood what she was supposed to do next. A light flashed in her eyes, the light of high-speed calculations. Two huge circular pixels quickly rose from the ground around her, and after a flash, they formed the familiar shapes of two Keys.

The spherical robots, with smooth white skin and four mechanical tentacles, become four-legged crawling combat robots after folding for a moment. These are the "legacy" from under the ruins, and belong to the princess's soldiers.

"Copying completed...confirmed to be feasible."

The robot constructed with data in front of him made Key confirm the rules of this game field. As a Collapse Source, he can mobilize the data in it and use this data to form his own soldiers and army - although all of this is just a virtual existence, but in this virtual space, this is the best solution to fight against Danrito who is also a Collapse Source!

"Hmph~ You've already been able to use the innate skills of the Collapse Type in such a short time? You're learning quite quickly, but compared to those born with the Collapse Type, you didn't master this instinct right away..." Danrito's mind raced, "So, you've always existed in the form of data. In Alice's body?"

"I've already explained it before." Key refused to deny Danrito's inference. "I was created to assist Her Majesty, the Princess. No matter what form I take in this world—"

The next moment, Danrito rushed up with the Gashacon holy sword and holy shield in hand. Key hurriedly commanded the robots around him to rush forward to block Danrito's attack for him, and he began to mobilize the program in his body again to recreate countless robots in this game field.

The spherical robots Key had created were the countless combat robots buried deep within the ruins. Their true forms were the numerous individuals Danrito had sensed, connected to Alice through the chair when she was awakened.

"Who the hell are you? You're even more threatening to me than those nameless gods..."

After seeing that he had actually summoned these soldier machines with his thoughts, Key's face didn't relax, but instead furrowed its brows even more. This was a miracle forged in Danrito's world. This meant that not only Key, but even Danrito could accomplish this.

In this world composed of data, a battle between two Collapsers could mobilize the boundless resources of the entire gaming realm. This was possible only because of the 'Creator MK1' machine, created by Danrito's transcendent divine talent. To accommodate his nearly limitless creative power, the entire 'Creator MK1' machine contained virtually unlimited processing memory.

The computing power capable of generating an entire game world in real time is enough to crush any other machine. If one wants to create a game like "Sword Art Online", it will not even take more than an hour. After all, this machine is called "Creator MK1", and it is not called "Creator" for nothing!

"Why do you look so serious?"

Danrito raised the holy shield in his hand, blocking all the laser beams shot by the robot soldier with its absolute defensive power, and then thrust out the gashacon holy sword in his hand, easily piercing the position of the laser emitter in the center of the robot soldier. A raging fire ignited on the holy sword, and even the electronic units inside were burned to pieces.

After stretching his neck, Danrito smiled and said, "This is a game world. If you can't have fun here, where else are you going to find happiness?"

108. The administrator’s power is unlimited

Yes.

Danrito had never taken Key's declaration of erasure seriously. He simply wanted to see what choice this newly born source of destruction would make under the influence of hostility.

The first two Collapse Sources he created, one being the small-time scoundrel Ame Yumi whose inner self had been saved, and the other being Kuromi Serika whose physical body had been saved, were unlikely to harbor hostility towards him. After transforming them into Collapse Sources, Danrito had no reason to allow them to use their full strength against him. Furthermore, in the case of Kuromi Serika, Danrito hadn't wanted to let her know about this change of identity so soon.

So now, having met this rare and precious Key, who still retained the determination to kill him after turning into a Collapse, how could he not take advantage of this moment to have a good time with him?

"I have my own mission. Pursuing happiness is not within my consideration. I don't have time to waste time here with you."

"What a shame... Is it because of the overwhelming sense of mission?" Danrito shook his head regretfully. "People who give orders more weight than hostility are so boring."

Key also looked at Alice, who was standing still behind him, not knowing how to react to this shocking fact.

"Princess! Please join me. Let's destroy this enemy!"

"You've been saying something Alice can't understand at all!"

Alice was simply bewildered by everything she saw. She asked, puzzled, "How could someone who emerged from Alice's body say something like they want to kill Alice's companions? Aren't you also Alice's companion?"

"Princess, what are you talking about?"

Novel Group 09①⑧

Commanding his robots to charge towards Danrito one after another, Key looked at Alice in confusion: "Have you truly forgotten who you are?"

"I've already said Alice isn't some princess, she's a hero!"

Alice yelled at Key in front of her, "You've been talking nonsense since a while ago. I don't understand anything at all!"

"Maybe it's because I ate some code when I was reborn under the ruins."

Danrito's Gashacon sword easily split the two robots' bodies, but more robot soldiers rushed forward fearlessly, one after another, trying to prevent Danrito from getting close to Key. He kicked a spherical robot away and sent it flying into the air like a football kicked by Tsubasa Ozora.

"Although I'm not sure. Alice doesn't remember whether I was the one who did it or not."

Touching his heart, the feeling of Key sank into it again.

"This body... is indeed constructed from an unknown computer virus and code. Life forms like yours have never been seen even in the enemy's data."

Just by feeling his current body, he knew what Danrito had said was true. This body, constructed from the virus code, could indeed consume the data code stored in the android Alice and be reborn.

The reason why Key became like this was because Danrito used the code containing the Collapse Virus as a repair material at that time.

Faced with such an unexpected event, Key, a monk of the Nameless Priest, could only sigh: "Besides the Nameless God, has a new enemy appeared?"

"You're still distracted in front of me?"

Danrito kicked the robot in front of him away and inserted the cassette on his belt into the holy sword in his hand.

"Decisive skill!"

Mighty critical strike!

The flaming blade of the holy sword instantly surged, sweeping away the entire area of ​​enemies in front of him with a heroic flaming sword energy. Then, using the power of this sword, Danrito rushed in front of Key!

"Weapon module fully charged—fire!"

Seeing Danrito approaching quickly, Key looked serious. He raised the electromagnetic cannon that had been charging up power, pressed the launch button, and let the fully energy-charged light cannon cover Danrito's face!

boom--!

Caught off guard, Danrito was struck in the face by the electromagnetic cannon, sending him flying backwards. After becoming accustomed to his status as a Collapser, Key's electromagnetic cannon was enhanced, differing from the electromagnetic cannon Alice had created with her own hand. Key's electromagnetic cannon was composed of the Collapser virus and her own body code. With the mastery of the Collapser's body, the power of this specially constructed electromagnetic cannon was naturally greatly increased!

"——It really hurts."

Danrito was hit in the face by the beam cannon and flew out into a deep pit on the ground, looking like Yamcha. But then he stood up with a somersault. He brushed the dust off himself, and his whole body was still intact.

"But this is meaningless to me."

Running within this machine was a truly dynamic, game-like simulation of a world. Even Kivotos would struggle to find a machine capable of achieving this level of computational power.

However, this is ultimately just a 'Creator God MK1' made of simple materials. In fact, although what it can do can be called a miracle of God, it has its limitations. The fact that it can now achieve such miraculous computing power is only possible thanks to the 'Power of My Thoughts' contained in Danrito's Divine Billion Cassette.

Therefore, without Danrito to activate this machine, this so-called "Creator MK1" would be nothing more than a pile of incompetent scrap metal. Unless a large amount of mysterious materials were used to completely complete the missing parts of this machine, then the machine could operate smoothly even without Danrito's presence.

The above long speech is just to prove one conclusion - this is a world where Danrito is the game administrator, and the game administrator's authority is unlimited!

Danrito raised his hand, making a pinching motion, and the mechanical soldiers summoned by Key were reduced to ashes in a series of explosions. It wasn't that Danrito was suddenly abusing his authority, but when he caught Alice's pitiful and bewildered expression from the corner of his eye, he finally let out an impatient "tsk."

"You're such a worrying kid! I guess I'll have to put my research on you off until later."

"——Princess!"

Key felt as if all control over his body had vanished, leaving only his own strength to struggle. But how could a newly born Broken Blastoise resist the god-like Danrito?

In a short while, the space for struggling was reduced to the size of a square, and he was confined to this game space.

"Just stay here quietly."

Danrito transformed himself into a swarm of the Hakugen virus and dissipated, leaving the machine and regenerating his body in the outside world. As Xiaomo, Xiaolu, and the others watched worriedly, Danrito reached out and pressed the machine on Alice's head. He pulled it off, revealing Alice, a face filled with confusion, frustration, and sadness.

109. Tanrito, full responsibility!

"Alice, what happened! Are you okay?!"

Xiao Tao came over anxiously, took Alice's hand and looked her up and down, her concern making her panic. The field of game development was isolated from the material world. It was a space created by Danrito alone for developing games. No matter what, it would not cause harm to Alice in reality. However, the Collapse Body could rely on its own characteristics to enter and exit this world, so Danrito used his ability to temporarily trap Key in the cartridge. Otherwise, the next moment, Key would run along the machine to Kivotos.

"Ai-Alice doesn't feel very well..."

Instead of answering Xiao Tao's question with the standard "I'm fine," Alice, who was always so cheerful, now looked confused. "Just now, another Alice who looked exactly like Alice came out of Alice's body..."

Yuzu was stunned: "Huh?"

Alice looked bewildered. "Then, that Alice said Alice was a world-destroying being, and called me Princess. She came to help me destroy the world..."

Xiaolu was stunned: "Huh?"

"You also want me to eliminate Mr. Dan Lidou..."
