Chapter 147: The Fourth Progenitor Has Arrived at His Loyal Itogami Island

Itogami Island, an artificial island built by the current Xianshen Family at any cost, is a massive artificial island created upon a submarine Dragon Vein by organically combining the world's most advanced scientific technology of the time with Feng Shui and magic.

This artificial island is located in the northwestern region of the Taipingyang, an artificial island floating on the sea about 330 kilometers south of Dong Jing.

It is a city entirely man-made, constructed from carbon fiber, resin, metal, and magic, and connected by ultra-large floating structures called GigaFloat.

The temperature on the island is maintained above 20 degrees year-round, and the total population is approximately 560,000; although administratively designated as Itogami City, Dong Jing, it is actually a special administrative region with an independent political system and is the most distinctive "Demon District" in this world.

The so-called Demon District refers to a place where humans and demons live together, as this Earth is generally in a state of hostility between humans and demons.

With the Three Great Empires of the Night leading the demon nations and humans leading the human nations, both sides remain wary of each other, standing in opposition and having no dealings.

However, under the Sanctuary Treaty led by the First Progenitor, a delicate balance is maintained on the surface.

The Demon District is a city where humans and demons can live together like this; most of the island's residents are researchers and their families, as well as special ability users recognized by the city, including demons who are subjects of research.

Of course, in return, these demons are granted corresponding civic rights, allowing them to study, work, and live just like humans.

However, demons must wear bracelets that restrict their abilities or have alarm functions, making them easy to distinguish.

As an academic city, Itogami City is densely packed with large enterprises in fields like medicine, precision machinery, and high-tech materials, as well as well-known university research institutions.

Precisely because of this, Itogami Island is actually a very special area, infiltrated by various major organizations and forces, and could be said to be a mix of fish and dragons.

But it is also because it is mixed with the world's major organizations that the city's technological development is at the absolute forefront of the entire world.

Itogami Island Airport, the gateway for customs and immigration.

Through the explosion-proof glass, looking at the staff inside, Nangong Nayue's expression twisted slightly at this moment.

Of course, there was also the reason that a certain irresponsible Fourth Progenitor had left a sentence in her ear and simply left.

"Nayue-chan, I'll leave these troublesome entry procedures to you; Agulora and I will go wait for you in your room."

At the thought of Su Nian's words, Nangong Nayue was so angry her teeth itched.

Do you have any idea how troublesome the procedures for a demon to enter Itogami Island are?

Because Itogami Island is an island for researching the special existence of demons, the immigration management of this island is extremely strict.

Blood draws, fingerprints, irises, DNA scans, magic power certification, and the need to wear a bracelet that signifies one is a demon while also acting as a monitor.

Even for the privileged class, it requires sufficient guarantees and a series of procedures.

But at least, show your face, you idiot!

And now, because Su Nian found these things troublesome, he had already headed to Nangong Nayue's villa, leaving behind only a twisted-looking Nangong Nayue and Liana, who was looking at Nangong Nayue with eager eyes.

Beside her, a Demon Attack Specialist holding a scanner and wearing a combat uniform looked at Nangong Nayue with great helplessness.

"Sorry, Instructor Nangong, this is really... not possible..."

As a local of Itogami Island, Nangong Nayue still held the position of instructor in the Itogami Island Security Force.

The two personnel in front of her responsible for immigration security and management were naturally among her disciples.

Nangong Nayue sighed helplessly in her heart.

I taught them to enforce the law impartially for so long...

But complaining was one thing; Nangong Nayue rubbed her temples in pain and pleaded again.

"Can't you really make an exception? They've already gone in."

As soon as the words were out, Nangong Nayue felt a burning pain on her face; at that moment, she felt her dignity was about to be completely lost.

She no longer had the face to continue seeing these disciples.

The chief instructor taking the lead in pulling strings—this rumor would probably spread across the entire island by tomorrow, right?

"This really won't work, Instructor Nayue, at least we need a photo?"

"Otherwise, how can we print the ID card?"

The two Demon Attack Specialists were also very helpless; it wasn't that they didn't want to pull strings, but how could they do it?

There was no information, let alone a photo, and when asked for their identities, Nangong Nayue couldn't even say them.

Nangong Nayue felt even more desperate and broken.

Seeing Nangong Nayue like this, the two Demon Attack Specialists looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and took out two blank entry forms and handed them to Nangong Nayue.

"Please have the instructor fill them out and submit them to the Special Zone Security Force tomorrow."

Nangong Nayue sighed, then with a dark face, used a Spatial Transfer Technique to leave.

She was going to settle the score with the culprit who had ruined the image she had worked so long to build.

Only Liana, who was having her blood drawn on the side, was left looking eagerly at the departing Nangong Nayue, feeling like she wanted to cry but had no tears.

She didn't want to go through these tedious procedures either; she was also of the privileged class, just currently fallen.

At this time, the Demon Attack Specialist next to her walked over swaggeringly, holding his Demon Magic Gun with authority and said.

"Cooperate, we are going to start drawing blood."

"Okay."

Liana revealed an indescribably complex expression.

On the other side, before Nangong Nayue could find Su Nian to settle the score, she received a message from the higher-ups of Itogami Island.

They wanted her to go to the center of Itogami Island to discuss matters regarding the Fourth Progenitor.

After all, the incident on Gozo Island couldn't be called strictly confidential, but it could be said to be known to everyone.

The archaeological team that went to excavate the No. 12 Vessel, the Fairy's Coffin, had been funded by various forces, so it was already riddled with leaks.

Naturally, the news of the Fourth Progenitor's appearance had leaked out, as well as the Fourth Progenitor's current strength.

Possessing powerful spatial abilities, and at the same time, those Familiars didn't seem to be merely simple True Ancestor-level Familiars; their magic power fluctuations were far more terrifying than those of the First Progenitor's Familiars.

If the other three True Ancestors were mobile nuclear warheads, then at most they were at the level of standard yields, much stronger than "Little Boy," capable of destroying a city in one blow.

Then the power of the Fourth Progenitor's Familiars was at the Tsar level.

Now that it was believed the true, strongest Fourth Progenitor had been resurrected and was coming to reclaim his power.

This was both a challenge and an opportunity, perhaps it could help them take a step further on the path to resurrecting Lord Cain.

To go even further, perhaps they could control such a powerful Fourth Progenitor through Cain, who knows?

Although it is rumored that Cain was killed by the Fourth Progenitor, as people determined to resurrect Cain, they naturally knew some secrets that even the other Three Great Empires of the Night were unaware of.

In fact, Cain was not killed by the Fourth Progenitor; or rather, the Fourth Progenitor was forced by the Heavenly Tribe and the Three True Ancestors to control Cain, and even Cain's death was part of Cain's own plan.

Moreover, the Fourth Progenitor and Cain shared a very deep bond.

Especially after they saw the gender of the Fourth Progenitor, they became even more convinced of this point.

After all, the original Fourth Progenitor Zero was actually a young boy, and he was a type of assistant who had stayed by the Fourth Progenitor's side for a very long time.

Isn't this a coincidence? We can totally join forces and resurrect Lord Cain together.

Inside the high-level conference room of the Artificial Island Management Corporation on Itogami Island.

Nangong Nayue sat on a leather chair, legs crossed, her right hand holding a folding fan supporting her cheek, looking at the people across the table with an impatient expression.

"Although I don't know what you are thinking or what kind of schemes you have, I still have to remind you of one thing: the Fourth Progenitor is not someone easy to get along with."

As she said this, Nangong Nayue recalled her recent experience again and couldn't help but grit her teeth as she spoke.

"That is of course, but we believe that as long as the other party learns of our grand plan, they will naturally be easy to get along with."

"Let's hope so."

Looking at this group of high-level officials, none of whom listened to her words, Nangong Nayue's face looked as if she were wearing a mask of pain.

At this moment, she could only hope that this group of high-level officials didn't have any overly suicidal ideas; after all, she was currently both a subordinate of Su Nian and a high-level official of Itogami Island.

If she didn't truly care about Itogami Island, she would have run away long ago; following Su Nian wasn't bad at all.

At the very least, Su Nian was truly generous; he gave away such a powerful ability just like that.

Now, Nangong Nayue only needed a thought to displace the air into the bodies of the high-level officials around her, and she could easily achieve the feat of wiping out the entire Itogami Island leadership.

"Then how should we bridge our relationship with the Fourth Progenitor now, and what if the Fourth Progenitor doesn't want to resurrect Cain?"

"Perhaps we can use the daughter of the Motomiya family to bridge the relationship; the shrine maiden of Kain, I think the Fourth Progenitor should understand what we mean, right?"

"If he is unwilling to resurrect Cain, then let him die at the Flame Light Banquet; I don't think the other Three True Ancestors will allow the Fourth Progenitor to truly resurrect."

For thousands of years, the Flame Light Banquet has been held several times; the Fourth Progenitor might have been resurrected before, and now it would just be another resurrection.

"Good, let's do it."

After hearing the words of the man in the center, the others also agreed.

"That's right, there is absolutely no problem with this."

"I will go arrange it immediately and find a way to make them meet."

Meanwhile, Nangong Nayue, sitting to the side, looked sorrowfully at this group of people, who were beginning to be filled with an unknown pitch-black gelatinous substance.

"By the way, remember to make the arrangements natural; we must let the Emperor have fun."

"Almost forgot, we also need to clean up the cases; we must let the Emperor see our integrity and loyalty."

······

"Ha~~"

Su Nian yawned quite boredly, then directly pulled Nangong Nayue into his arms and pressed down on her head as he spoke.

"Let go of me!"

Nangong Nayue said very unhappily; she was no longer a child and did not want to sit in someone's arms like this, being held like a doll.

"No, with a build like Nayue-chan's, it's most suitable to be held like this."

"Then what about that Vessel?"

"She is sleepy and is sleeping, which is why I came to find Nayue-chan."

Su Nian said quite scummily, and Nangong Nayue was so angry she couldn't help but snort coldly.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't beat this guy, she would definitely make him pay.

"But speaking of which, Nayue-chan, what do you think of this? Are you interested in becoming the mayor of Itogami City?"

Nangong Nayue struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free, and couldn't help but puff out her cheeks as she said.

"Not interested, there are so many things for a mayor to do, I'm not willing."

"Fine then, just stay quietly by my side, Nayue-chan."

Su Nian was not annoyed at being rejected; in any case, these controlled high-level officials could still continue to manage things.

Moreover, having a faction under his command to help do things could also reduce a lot of troublesome matters.

Just like that, the Fourth Progenitor arrived at his loyal Itogami Island.

Exam tomorrow, update delayed until the evening.

Hope I don't fail the course.
