The wind, carrying the heat of summer, blew across the clear blue sea, setting off unknown waves, causing the sea water to rise and fall, and the sound of the water waves slowly resounding, sweet and melodious.
This is the Pacific Ocean, the largest, deepest, widest, and most island ocean in the world.
In the middle of such an ocean, floating 330 kilometers south of Tokyo, there is an island.
It was an artificial island.
However, it is definitely not an ordinary artificial island.
Looking down from a high place, people can only see a city of steel buildings sitting on the ocean, forming this big metal island.
In fact, this island is made of carbon fiber, resin, metal and magic, and is connected by extremely large floating structures.
The temperature here remains above 20 degrees all year round, and the total population is about 560,000. It is administratively classified as Tokyo, but in fact it is a special administrative region with an independent political system.
The purpose of this administrative district is to protect endangered non-human life forms and to study their body tissues and special abilities.
However, the so-called non-human life forms do not refer to animals, but to demons.
There are many living beings in this world that only appear in fairy tales.
For example, orcs.
For example, elves.
For example, monsters.
Another example, vampires.
Non-human life forms like this are called fantasy species in Chaldea, and existences that have almost disappeared in modern times have survived in this world and are known to the world.
Of course, there are also magic, spells and other various magic systems here. In terms of the purity, height and universality of the mystery, it far exceeds that of other worlds.
Thanks to this, the non-human life forms collectively known as demons survive.
The artificial island here is a special administrative area established mainly for research projects related to non-human life forms such as orcs, elves, half-demon, artificial life forms, and vampires.
There is not just one such special administrative region in the world, there are many more.
Here, demons that are extremely rare in the human world can be seen everywhere.
Here, humans and demons live together, at least on the surface it seems very harmonious.
People call such a place the Demon Tribe Special Zone.
The existence of the Demon Tribe Special Zone allows the Demon Tribe, whose numbers have declined sharply due to the impact of natural destruction or war with humans, and are on the verge of extinction, not only to gain public recognition, but also to be protected.
As a reward, the demon's physical tissue or special abilities will be analyzed and used in science or industrial expansion.
This is the purpose of the existence of the Demon Clan, which is to protect the demons on the verge of extinction and use the abilities of the demons for scientific development. It can be said that it is a combination of mystery and science, which is similar in nature to Caleb. Very similar existence.
As for the residents of the island, except for the demons, most of the rest are human researchers and their families, as well as people with special abilities recognized here. They study, work, and live together with the demons who are the subjects of research.
Due to this nature, it is also known as an academic city, with large companies in the pharmaceutical, precision machinery, and high-tech material industries or research institutions of well-known universities dotted throughout.
This is the true face of this artificial island.
Because the person who built this artificial island was named Chira Gengami, he did not hesitate to combine the most advanced science and technology with Feng Shui and magic, and finally created this huge island on the dragon veins flowing through the ocean. An artificial island, therefore, people call this demon special zone Genkami Island, and the academic city located on the island is called Genkami City.
This is the main stage of this world, where all kinds of events and disturbances will come in the future.
On this day, an outsider broke into this place.
"Buzz!"
Just above Gengami Island, the space suddenly distorted and turned into a whirlpool of light. It suddenly appeared like the exit of some passage, causing chaos in the surrounding atmosphere.
The next second, a black shadow swept out of it.
The true form of the black shadow is a three-legged crow.
The three-legged crow is covered with bright fire powder, its eyes are golden, and there are three magatama rotating inside. It exudes a pure, rich, and noble aura, giving it a sense of sacred and inviolable existence. Shocking.
His figure is like a god descending from the sky.
Its aura is like a sun disk hanging high in the sky.
Such a three-legged crow seems to have experienced some arduous journey, and its aura is somewhat unstable.
But the three-legged crow seemed to want to complete some mission. It looked down from high in the sky and swept the entire ocean below. Finally, its eyes fell on the artificial island suspended on the ocean.
"Uh-huh!"
The next moment, a three-legged crow sprang out like a sharp arrow and flew towards the artificial island below.
Its speed is so fast that you can only see a dark phantom and a golden stream of light formed by bright fire powder, which is quite pleasing to the eye.
Not long after, the three-legged crow arrived at Gengami Island and came to the sky above Gengami City.
However, its mission is far from completed.
Although the three-legged crow is a high-ranking god, he does have a mission now.
That is, to find a reliable existence and hand over the object of loyalty and protection.
Otherwise, its owner's continued survival in this world may become a problem.
Therefore, the three-legged crow must spare no effort.
For this ancient god, the so-called reliable existence is naturally a powerful individual.
The three-legged crow was here, and he detected a magical power that was of the highest level even across the entire island.
"laugh!"
Without any hesitation, the three-legged crow shot out and flew towards its target at extremely high speed.
The speed is unparalleled.
... ... ... ...
At the same time, on a street in Gengami City, a girl was among the bustling scene of people coming and going.
No, rather than saying a girl, it would be more appropriate to say a young girl.
It was a girl who looked to be only about eleven or twelve years old. She was wearing the uniform of an unknown school. She was small and exquisite, but her face was frighteningly delicate and upright. She looked like a doll specially carved by the highest-level artist. .
The girl has waist-length black hair that is as black as a waterfall. Only the ends of her hair are curled up. She looks quite fashionable. Her eyes are a mysterious blue, and her whole body exudes a strange sense of presence and majesty. People find it extremely novel.
"So hot... "
At this time, the girl was standing on the street, as if she had just completed her school obligations and was about to go home. She stopped in the flow of people and sighed impatiently.
"When will the island get cooler?"
The girl neither wished nor expected, she just complained.
However, her complaint felt more like an order because her expression was too impatient, her face was too upright, her eyes were too stern, and the relationship was too strong.
And no one knew that this girl was one of the most special beings on the island.
The girl carried this specialness with her and continued to move forward.
Unknown to him, a three-legged crow was approaching rapidly some distance away.
