Chapter 670 – “Pure Land” Invaders

　　Yuzurina already knew all the latter.

　　Uncle Kyousuke’s eyes were fixed on the distant sky, as if he wanted to penetrate the infinite space and see the [Pure Land] that was suspended over Tokyo.

　　”I know that I’m sorry for not being able to be by your side for so many years, I’m sorry for you and Akiko …… But, the one I’m most sorry for is your brother.” Uncle Kyousuke spoke hoarsely, “It’s been thirteen years, he’s been left in the [Pure Land] for thirteen years.

　　These thirteen years, every time I close my eyes, I will think of the scene of his young body being inserted with tubes and locked up in a small room like an animal …… The gang of oracle ambassadors of the [Pure Land], I don’t know what they have turned him into.

　　Whenever I think about it, I can’t sleep at night, if it wasn’t because of me, he wouldn’t have been subjected to this kind of torture at all ……”

　　Uncle Kyousuke’s body trembled slightly.

　　Yuzurina sat on the bed, not knowing how to comfort Uncle Kyousuke, she just silently hugged him from behind and

　　Speaking softly:

　　”Dad …… has already worked very hard ah.”

　　Uncle Kyousuke took a deep breath, pressed down the sadness and anger rolling around in his heart, and hugged Yuzurina in his arms, squeezing a smile out of the corner of his mouth:

　　”Wait for it, little Yuzuru Ri, dad will one day save your brother …… Although I don’t know what he has already been cultivated into by the oracle envoys after so many years, I hope, you don’t dislike him …… ”

　　Yuzurina shook her head, her long black hair swaying gently behind her back, “Not at all! He’s my younger brother! I’ll definitely protect him.”

　　Uncle Kyousuke smiled and reached out to gently touch her head, “Be good, go to sleep.”

　　Tokyo.

　　Above the neon-bright city, the mysterious disk standing above the clouds emitted a faint glow in the night sky, psychedelic and full of technological flavor.

　　In the central area of the disk, in the core control room, a teenager was sitting on a Japanese-style futon, in front of him was a short square table, on the tabletop was a shogi board, the battle was very anxious.

　　This teenager squinted his eyes at the chessboard in front of him, as if he was in deep thought, and underneath the lenses, there was a quiet and fair face.

　　In his left ear, there was a bluetooth headset.

　　After a long time, he lifted a chess piece and landed it somewhere on the chessboard, looking up at the empty futon across the table, a coy smile surfaced on his face, and he opened his mouth gently:

　　”Jiang’er, it’s your turn.”

　　A white shadow floated out from the electronic screen in the center control room, gently landing on the futon opposite the teenager like a butterfly, it was a cool young girl wearing a snow-white long dress, at the moment, she was seriously examining the chessboard, at the same time, all the electronic devices in the center control room flashed up at the same time!

　　A few moments later, her expression was somewhat distressed.

　　”Another unsolvable dead game …… This time you won again.” Jiang’er let out a long sigh, and her voice was transmitted from the Bluetooth headset to An Qingyu’s ears as she said in a depressed voice, “Obviously, I’ve already used the arithmetic power of all of the nanocomputers here, so why can’t I still beat you? Are you really human?”

　　The smile on An Qingyu’s face became even brighter, “Are you not clear about whether or not I am human?”

　　”Hmph, not playing chess with you anymore!” Jiang’er stood up and spoke with some irritation.

　　”Angry?”

　　”Also …… not.”

　　”What you’re wearing today is really nice.”

　　”…… What I’m wearing isn’t always that white dress! You praise me also on the point of good?” Jiang Er rolled her eyes.

　　An Qingyu pondered for a moment, “Why don’t you change it? I’ll repeat the compliment.”

　　The corners of Jiang Er’s mouth twitched slightly, she wanted to roll her eyes again, but as if she thought of something, a blush appeared on her cheeks unnoticeably, and after hesitating for a moment, she still stood up and gently spun halfway around in the air.

　　The next moment, her figure was like a snowflake in an old television set, and after flickering for a moment, the clothes on her body had changed.

　　It was an azure blue yukata with a small yellow flower tattooed on it, like a flowery breeze drifting across a bright sea, between serenity and elegance, with a hint of sunrise’s vigor and vitality, and like the heart of a young girl before falling in love, wanting to be reserved but unable to contain her fondness.

　　A hairpin held up her black hair, she stood in front of An Qingyu wearing this yukata, hands behind her back, tilting her head slightly to the side, asking in a small voice:

　　”What about this one? This is what I found in the database, this kind of clothes seems to be very popular in this country, so I just wanted to try it on, if it doesn’t look good actually ……”

　　”It looks good.”

　　An Qingyu interrupted Jiang’er’s broken thoughts and nodded seriously, “It’s really good looking.”

　　The blush on Jiang Er’s face became even more intense, she boldly moved her gaze back to An Qingyu’s body, “Then …… then I can wear it all day oh?”

　　”Wear it for as long as you want.”

　　A smile surfaced on Jiang’er’s face, she walked to An Qingyu’s side and sat down, looking up at the flickering electronic screen overhead, and after a long time, slowly opened her mouth:

　　”Qingyu.”

　　”Eh?”

　　”It’s been more than a year since we floated here, right?”

　　”One year and four months.”

　　”One year and four months, it’s always been the two of us it ……” Jiang’er was silent for a moment, “I don’t know, where are the others now …… ”

　　”We’ll know soon enough.” An Qingyu turned her head to look at her, “When your invasion is completely finished and you gain control of the entire [Pure Land], we’ll be able to find out where they are.”

　　”Uhm ……”

　　”What’s the approximate level of control now?”

　　”It’s already at 46% today, but the Oracle is here, and if I directly invade on a large scale, I’ll easily be discovered, so the progress is slow ……”

　　”It doesn’t matter, let’s take our time, it’s imperative that we gain absolute access to the prison area first.” An Qingyu looked at the chessboard in front of him, “Counting the time, the progress at Yuzuri Kurotsuchi’s place has already advanced more or less, this last move is crucial ……”

　　”In the case of the prison area, it has been completely opened today, and I have already obtained all the permissions there.” Jiang Er said.

　　An Qingyu’s eyes lit up, “Start the information retrieval, first find the whereabouts of Yuzuri Kurosetsu’s son.”

　　”Good.”

　　Jiang Er nodded and slowly closed her eyes as the countless electronic screens around her flashed violently.

　　After a long time, Jiang Er opened his eyes with a somewhat odd expression.

　　”Found it?”

　　”The location of Experiment 0, I’ve already found it.” Jiang Er paused, “However, I have also found some other ……”

　　”Others?” An Qingyu asked doubtfully, “Besides him, what else is there in the prison area?”

　　”Such as …… a certain Cao thief?”

　　An Qingyu froze.

　　”Cao ……”

　　After a long time, he came back to his senses and flew up from the futon, his eyes filled with shock, “Cao Yuan?!!!”
