Next, Synapse's strongest strategic asset, the all-powerful angel Icarus, is about to fall upon Sora-machi.
"Handsome, should we try to sign a contract with Icarus and use her to analyze Synapse's artificial angel technology?"
Once you enter Synapse and figure out how the Wishing Stones work, you'll be able to do whatever you want in the Skyfall world.
The magician Yalin patted the shoulder of the sky-fallen Yalin, showing great interest in the wishing stone tablet.
"Icarus?" Tianjiang Yalin rubbed his temples, having learned about the plot of Heaven's Lost Property from the information shared by the other Yalins.
"Even without studying the stone slab, once it develops, it should be able to walk sideways, right?"
Tenjō Yarin recalled the fighting power of Icarus, the Queen of the Sky, in the anime and wondered about it.
While the artificial angels are indeed powerful, they pose no threat to the Yalins.
"Don't underestimate the Synapse civilization. Although it has not shown any extraordinary combat power and seems to only dominate the earth, it has actually existed for countless billions of years."
Even the Big Bang was caused by this civilization.
Reviewing the relevant information, Yalin exclaimed in surprise.
The humans in this world were also created by the Synapse civilization, initially to satisfy the minds that had gradually become distorted due to their long lifespans.
"So exaggerated?"
Tianjiang Yalin was quite nervous about this, and the sense of security he had initially felt due to the cheat code suddenly became less solid.
It was supposed to be just a conflict on Earth, but the later plot twists have blown it out to this extent?
"Don't worry too much. If you're prepared to take someone else's place, you might just be able to do so."
At least the inhabitants of Synapse are similar to humans, except they have wings.
Aside from guarding against a potential Big Bang of unknown origin, this civilization's conventional combat capabilities are not particularly high.
"I'll have to put you through this," Yalin said, while also finding the civilization somewhat absurd.
Icarus alone nearly destroyed the Synapse civilization, which sealed her away for thousands of years out of fear of her power.
Icarus's ultimate weapon, Apollo, could destroy a country in one strike, which was still within the range that the Yarins could withstand.
Therefore, there's no need to worry too much about this civilization pulling out some particularly outrageous weapon... probably?
"If all else fails, we can use the Akarin technique to act as an assassin, secretly observe the technology of this civilization, and take the wish tablet away at a crucial moment, or even make a wish directly."
The challenge to Yalin was met with targeted countermeasures, and the other Yalin members also began to devise their own strategies.
They were quite envious of the technology behind the artificial angels III and 〇霓陾2逝爸蒝?〒.
"Hey, calm down, guys." Tianjiang Yalin was speechless.
Why is everyone suddenly entering a fantasy phase? He's just an ordinary teacher; he doesn't have that ability.
After calming down, the Yalins shifted their focus to the new talents of the Heavenly Yalin and the American Yalin.
The pinnacle of hacking: A significantly enhanced understanding of information and related fields, enabling easy mastery of hacking techniques and greater inspiration when working in related industries. (Skynet, Red Queen, Mechanical Emperor? Nothing special.)
Evil Buster: When facing dark monsters such as vampires and demons, it will suppress the enemy; the effect is related to the difference in strength between the two sides. (The Seven Lords of Hell, not bad.)
"This 'Hacks' Summit' is quite interesting. When I get back, I can upgrade my AI sprite again." Yue Zhan Yalin pondered, savoring this talent.
"With this talent, if we encounter a robot like the Terminator, we might even be able to manipulate electrical signals to hack into its program, modify it, and take it over," American Horror Yalin said to Skyfall Yalin.
"This is quite suitable for your world. Those artificial angels have a process of recognizing a master after they are created."
If their programming could be altered, the threat posed by the Synapse civilization would be significantly reduced.
After all, their standard combat force consists of artificial angels.
Of course, this is no easy task, since artificial angels are one of the technological achievements of the Synapse civilization and are not so easy to break through.
This is just one possible approach.
However, it is certain that the more technologically advanced a civilization is and the more it relies on artificial intelligence, the greater the role of this talent will be.
If this were in The Matrix, the Machine Emperor might find out who truly rules the virtual world.
As for the Evil Buster talent, it's simple and easy to understand: it grants a special attack against dark creatures. The problem is, this description is incredibly arrogant. Are they really not afraid of getting beaten up?
.......
Battle World.
As Yalin stepped out, he stared into thought at Itsuka Shiori, who was hurrying toward Raizen High School with a piece of bread in her mouth.
At his current speed, he will meet Itsuka Shiori at the corner, where she will unexpectedly bump into him, causing an accident.
Thinking of this, Yalin paused, thus avoiding the girl's rash actions.
However, when Itsuka Shiori saw him, she immediately slowed down and wanted to stay by Ayrin's side.
Clearly, this was a well-prepared move.
"Keep running, or we'll be late," Yalin said casually, glancing up at the sky.
As the principal, he was not satisfied with Shiori's attitude towards studying.
"Because it's too late." Itsuka Shiori glanced at the time and gave a helpless smile. "I'd rather chat with Rin."
That's her main task; saving the world is more important than attending high school classes.
Yalin's ambiguous smile made the girl feel guilty.
He snapped his fingers, completely destroying the nearby surveillance equipment and Itsuka Shiori's earpiece.
"Huh?" The girl exclaimed in surprise, becoming tense as if she had been caught cheating.
"We've known each other for so long, this kind of ulterior motive-driven encounter isn't your style."
"Speak, what brings you here?"
Yalin patted the girl on the shoulder, letting her know that honesty was the only way out.
"I'm just curious about Lin's experience studying in England." After calming down, Itsuka Shiori asked the question she had prepared in advance.
Fraxinus can't be relied on for now; she'll have to rely on herself from now on.
"To put it simply, when I first arrived in London, England, I met Mr. Westcott of DEM."
Upon seeing me, the other party was amazed by my extraordinary talent. After only half an hour of meeting, they voluntarily decided to entrust the entire DEM company to me and live in seclusion on a small island that was difficult for outsiders to detect.
His assistant, Allen, also reformed and decided to assist me in becoming the new executive director.
Yalin said in a teasing tone, "When the other directors saw this, they all exclaimed that there can only be one sun in the sky, and that they only had me as their sun. They then changed their allegiance and continued to shine for DEM."
"There's no way around it, being too charismatic can be a problem."
"Lin, are you making up a novel?" Itsuka Shiori felt that Ayashi was talking nonsense.
Even third-rate light novels wouldn't dare use such a setting, otherwise they'd probably be doomed.
"Don't disbelieve me, although there are indeed some embellishments, the general situation is really like that," Yalin said with a smile.
Who says that being asked to do something voluntarily doesn't mean it's not voluntary?
"As for you, whatever task Fraxinus assigns you, you're just wasting your time."
Yarin is not a real spirit, and Shiori Itsuka's actions were futile.
"Besides, don't you feel awkward right now?"
Yalin looked at the elegant lady knitting, which was completely different from her previous style, and couldn't help but complain.
"This acting deserves only two points, no more."
"I knew this wouldn't work." The girl sighed, quickly finished the bread in her mouth, and then explained helplessly.
"According to Kotori, every time the elves manifest, it causes a spacequake, and many innocent humans lose their lives in this disaster."
Therefore, humans and elves are enemies, locked in a life-or-death struggle.
To change this, the spirits' spiritual power must be sealed to prevent spatial quakes at their source.
At this point, her tone became somewhat troubled.
"As for the prerequisite for sealing, it is that the elves have enough goodwill towards me."
In this regard, Itsuka Shiori finds it particularly difficult to accept.
After all, she was a normal teenage girl, not a pervert who harassed both men and women.
Making up her mind was not easy for her either.
"So, Fraxinus devised a strategy specifically for me and sent you to carry it out?"
And then, you agreed?
"Yes, after all, only I have this ability," Itsuka Shiori said in despair.
She herself couldn't imagine what it would be like to successfully win over Yalin.
The two were more like close friends who were bad at each other. Compared to her elegant appearance, Yalin would probably prefer to see her make a fool of herself.
Well, if it were the other way around, she wouldn't mind seeing Yalin's disheveled side.
"Your approach is reasonable and has a high chance of success against other spirits."
"Forget about using it on me; let the Fraxinus members stop wasting their time."
Yalin, unwilling to beat around the bush with Itsuka Shiori, stated bluntly, "I am different from ordinary spirits; I cannot be sealed away."
He's not an elf at all, so even if his special attack is incredibly high, it won't help.
"Will that forest cause a spacequake?" Itsuka Shiori asked hurriedly.
"In this regard, experienced elves can control and cancel each other out."
Yalin casually remarked, "If it weren't for that, the losses suffered by Tiangong City when the princess appeared last time would have been much greater than that."
That said, was the spacequake disaster overlooked in the later part of the story?
The Pokémon were originally sealed away to prevent spacequakes, but as a result, most of the Pokémon stayed on Earth and didn't go to the neighboring world much.
“If that’s the case, then there’s really no need to seal the forest.” Itsuka Shiori breathed a sigh of relief, her mood lightening.
Too much familiarity can be torture; it's better to be close friends.
"Of course, even if you can seal the spirits, don't expect DEM to make an exception when you go to the battlefield. I'm also very interested in the other spirits."
