Chapter 309: The Light Badge Didn't React — Is It Because My Heart Is Dark?

The crisis manufactured by the Vampire Magic Beast was resolved in less than half an hour after the Spaceship Fortress arrived in the Real World.

However, while the culprit itself was dealt with, the trouble it created and its subsequent influence have yet to be resolved.

After the Digimon under its command were captured by the Perfect and Ultimate levels that disembarked from the Spaceship, the large number of hypnotized humans also gradually recovered their clear wits.

Then, these people saw the Spaceship Fortress suspended directly above the Huangju Guangchang; likewise, because the Data Fog no longer concealed it, the Outside World also caught sight of this building that completely defied common sense.

"What on earth is that?"

Facing the unknown, the ordinary people of this world also displayed an extremely normal panic reaction.

"Could it be that aliens have come to attack Earth in a UFO?"

Someone guessed as much, treating the large Digimon they had seen earlier as monsters and the small ones as aliens.

"Gluttony Beast King, there is a piece of intelligence I need to report to you."

While human society was clamoring, Molecule Beast dispatched a Drone and found Broly on the ground staying together with the Chosen Children.

Broly was holding Dorumon X in his arms; looking at the Drone, he told that side's Molecule Beast to speak directly.

"I intercepted human communication information; those humans seem to regard us as the chief culprits behind the disturbance manufactured by the Vampire Magic Beast, and are preparing to mobilize their Army to use modern human weapons to launch an attack on us."

Molecule Beast reported.

However, it was not nervous in the slightest; as far as this world's human weapons were concerned, even if the Spaceship Fortress hovered in the air motionless and allowed itself to be attacked by the humans here, the humans here would still find it difficult to harm the Spaceship Fortress wrapped in Chronicle Digizoid.

"If we are attacked, do we need to counterattack?"

Molecule Beast mainly came to ask this.

"Fighting is not good; it would hinder my search for delicious food. Go explain to this world's humans that we are not villains, but good people who helped them."

Broly gave his opinion.

We were misunderstood; clearing up the misunderstanding is enough.

His thinking was very simple.

"Yes, however, this world's humans seem to know little about the Digital World; they may not be willing to believe our explanation."

Molecule Beast responded, but raised another possible situation.

"If they don't believe us and attack, we'll just counterattack; once they're beaten badly, they'll naturally believe the explanation."

Broly said indifferently; being mistaken for a villain due to misunderstanding — he had experienced this sort of thing before.

Usually, one only needs to appeal to reason and emotion, explain the physical principles a bit, and those who misunderstood will eventually become understanding.

Although this was purely his personal experience, Broly felt using it here was absolutely without flaw.

"Ah, is it that simple and crude?"

Beside him, listening to Broly's instructions to Molecule Beast, Tai Yagami and the others all felt somewhat uneasy.

If the situation isn't explained well, will the Real World's Army end up going to war with Broly's Digimon?

"Then do you have any better ideas?"

Broly looked at Tai Yagami and them, actually wanting to know what brilliant insights this group of Chosen friends might have.

Of course, if Tai Yagami and the others had a better idea to solve the current problem, he was completely willing to accept it humbly and have Molecule Beast obey and execute it.

"This..."

Tai Yagami and the other Chosen Children looked at each other in dismay, but after discussion, they actually discussed a somewhat better method.

And that method was: they would also join the ranks of explaining to the outside world, using themselves to testify in person, informing the local ordinary people about Digimon, the Digital World, and the things the Vampire Magic Beast did these past days inside the Tokyo area wrapped in fog.

"That's right, we have to step forward and tell the adults the truth of the whole matter; we absolutely cannot let you, who helped everyone, be misunderstood."

"Clear up the misunderstanding, avoid conflict."

The Chosen Children, led by Tai Yagami, stood before the Drone's Lens.

Their idea was naive, yet precisely because of this naivety, the ordinary people watching this live testimony were influenced, causing the Army advancing this way to decide not to directly use force.

And because Molecule Beast invaded the Internet of the whole world, it let all humans worldwide, wherever there was Internet, know what happened in Tokyo.

Countries frantically made diplomatic Phone Calls to inquire about the situation, attempting to negotiate with the Spaceship Fortress represented by Molecule Beast.

They wanted to understand more about the truth of the fog disaster manufactured by the Vampire Magic Beast and the tens of thousands of people kidnapped and charmed, while also wanting to understand what Digimon are and what the Digital World is.

However, Molecule Beast was busy researching Daemon's Demon King data and interrogating the latter regarding research on utilizing human Telekinesis power, and simply had no time to chat with external humans.

So, it directly released to the outside humans a Network address storing electronic data of a "Digital Guide"; anyone could download and read the data on this Website through the Internet.

Of course, this Digital Guide was naturally not something produced on the spot, but taken from the second erroneously transmigrated Parallel Reality World — the one where Imperialdramon Paladin Mode resided — from the database of the human Network Management Bureau Department.

And before sending it out, Molecule Beast also modified the content inside, but to avoid possible mistakes.

Molecule Beast also thoughtfully declared at the very front of the data that the source of the Digital Guide was a Parallel Spacetime with knowledge of the Digital World — another Reality World — and marked in red text a reminder that due to world differences, this data might have discrepancies.

After this Digital Guide electronic data was released, it was undoubtedly like a massive bomb thrown into the Real World's Internet.

Leaving aside the Digital World and Digimon for the moment, just the Parallel Spacetime declared at the very front was enough to leave all research groups who downloaded and viewed this file collectively dazed.

Aliens haven't been discovered yet, but Parallel World information was discovered first; although there is still no way to verify the Authenticity of this information, if the Spaceship Fortress hovering above Tokyo isn't fake, and Digimon aren't fake, then this intelligence is also most likely not fake.

Molecule Beast's act of invading the worldwide Internet — it felt it was a basic standard operation — but to humans, it was undoubtedly a terrifying cyber attack.

Therefore, many people went to download the Digital Guide, not only officials of various countries, but even more ordinary netizens.

And after reading the Digital Guide, these people only felt their normal worldview was suffering a shattering bombardment.

"No wonder this year's global Climate has shown Abnormalities; turns out the Digital World and the Real World are drawing close..."

Molecule Beast meant to be somewhat perfunctory, but MarineAngemon felt this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so it asked for permission to modify the Digital Guide and incidentally threw in the information that the two worlds are drawing close and overlapping.

"Since the humans in the second world we erroneously transmigrated to can coexist peacefully with Digimon, this world should be able to as well."

At least MarineAngemon thinks so, feeling that this journey to this Reality World has let it find a possible way to solve the problem of the two worlds overlapping and the probability of conflict occurring.

It wants the Real World's humans to know a bit more about the Digital World, and also reveal that in other Parallel Worlds' Reality Worlds, the Digital Worlds existing in their worlds have already achieved a peaceful coexistence relationship.

Of course, this inevitably included MarineAngemon's private additions, such as writing Digimon to be as harmless as possible.

But given the Vampire Magic Beast's kidnapping and hypnosis incident, which almost hard-controlled a developed country's Capital for several days — that track record — this isn't very persuasive at all.

Before people from various countries in the Real World dispatched personnel to conduct mediation, MarineAngemon had still been flaming some human haters on the Internet who were calling for a boycott of Digimon.

Among them, some were anti-Internet activists waving the banner of "Internet harmfulness theory," and there were also fanatics who believed Internet development had filled the world with radiation, believing the Internet was the thing currently destroying the world.

However, none of this had much to do with Broly anymore; during the period when Tai Yi and the others were doing a live broadcast explanation, he took out the newly obtained Crest of Light and attempted an experiment on the roadside to make Dorumon X Super Evolve.

"Strange, I have both the Digivice and the Crest of Light, so why still no go?"

And after the Super Evolution attempt failed, Broly fell into some doubt, suspecting the Crest of Light he got was a fake.

"To use the Crest's power to Super Evolve requires us to have the corresponding emotions in our hearts."

Right then, Koushiro Izumi, who had finished the live broadcast explanation, seeing the boy's troubled appearance, walked over and gave a reminder.

"So you mean my heart isn't bright enough?"

"No, I don't mean that."

Koushiro Izumi hurriedly waved his hand.

"But you, who could make Dorumon evolve into Youkomon, can you really be called bright of heart?"

Joe Kido is an honest person; his roast is extremely sharp.

Broly: "..."

This remark left the Saiyan somewhat unable to refute.

"Speaking of which, how did Dorumon end up looking like this?"

Sora Takenouchi squatted down, leaned next to Dorumon X, and asked.

"Before coming to This World, we passed through another Digital World; inside that other Digital World, Dorumon was infected with the X Program..."

Broly explained slightly about the situation of the Digital World of the X Program world.

"Ah, there's even a Digital World that deletes Digimon?"

After hearing this, the Chosen Children were very surprised.

"Fortunately, Abu is super powerful; he saved me right on the spot, and that was already the third time he saved me."

Dorumon X stuck out his little chest, wearing a proud look.

Seeing this, the other Partner Digimon who had been beaten back to Child level by GrandDracumon all felt a bit jealous.

Why can't our own Initiator Partners occasionally step out and save them too, like Dorumon X's Initiator Partner?

"Don't compare us normal human children with alien superman children, okay?"

Tai Yi couldn't bear being stared at by Kuramon's expectant gaze, and immediately started shouting.

"Broly, how did you save Dorumon?"

And under Mimi's shining-eyed curious pursuit of questions, everyone learned the specific method Broly used to save the X Program-infected Dorumon.

"Your rescue method of threatening to destroy that Digital World, no wonder your Crest of Light had no reaction..."

After learning the specific rescue method, Tai Yi and the others were not polite at all, and started wildly roasting.

In the end, even Broly began to feel it was because his own heart wasn't bright enough that it led to the Crest of Light having no reaction.

"Abu, this has nothing to do with you; you are forever my light."

Dorumon X jumped onto his shoulder, rubbed his head against his face, and comforted him.

The others watched with great envy; what a good kitty!

"Gurgle..."

At this moment, Broly's stomach growled.

"I'm hungry; are there any good restaurants nearby?"

Broly asked Tai Yi and them.

"Vamdemon hypnotized everyone; even though the hypnosis has been lifted now, it's still impossible for the city to immediately return to normal after something like this happened."

Sora Takenouchi said.

"In other words, right now around here, there won't be any restaurants operating normally."

A He added an explanation.

"How about you come eat at our hiding place? Everyone's dads and moms are over there; there's enough stored food."

"Yeah, yeah, Tai's mom's fried pork cutlet is simply too delicious."

Kuramon chimed in agreement with Tai Yi's words from the side.

After the incident of Vamdemon abducting people on a large scale occurred, Tai Yi and the others brought their parents to a safe place and hid.

Although their parents were unwilling for their children to go on adventures, facing the children who spoke the words "Only we can stop Vamdemon and save others," they also found it hard to say words of refusal.

Thinking back now, Tai Yi and the others only felt a wave of lingering fear.

"Truly, heroes and such are only comparatively easy to see on the movie Virtual Projection Screen.

Real World heroes fundamentally aren't that easy to be.

This time we still have to thank Broly and Dorumon and them for timely coming over to This Side and saving us."

The Chosen Children still habitually call Dorumon X Dorumon, yet again thanked Broly and Dorumon X.

"However, about our near-death defeat, please don't tell our parents and families later."

Tai Yi and them, afraid their families would worry, explained in advance to Broly and Dorumon X.

"No wonder when you appeared to explain just now, you were vague about your own defeat."

"No problem, we won't tell your embarrassing defeat stories."

Broly gained some realization, nodded, and agreed.

Then, he was taken to the hiding place by Tai Yi and them.

"Big brother, you're back!"

Just as they approached a supermarket, a small figure ran out from inside the supermarket and sprinted toward This Side.

"Jia Er, I'm back."

Just as Tai Yi picked up his running Younger Sister, the Crest of Light in Broly's hand suddenly lit up.

"Dad, Mom, Uncle and Auntie have all seen Big Brother and the other Big Brothers and Big Sisters speaking on TV."

Jia Er said happily, then suddenly noticed behind her a boy holding a white cat in a pose similar to the Big Brother holding her.

"Eh, it's you, Big Brother who knows amazing Qi Magecraft!"

The Small Girl recognized Broly.
