Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 652 Memories of Lihu County
After vomiting out a pool of black crawling matter, the Demon King girl, who had basically returned to her normal appearance, seemed to become extremely weak.

Before Lin Lan and Yun Xian could look at each other and try to communicate with each other, she fell back and passed out.

After Lin Lan used light elements to eliminate the black matter in front of the Demon King, he and Yun Xian walked to the Demon King's side and observed carefully.

Yun Xian crouched down, summoned two blue butterflies, and closed his eyes slightly after the Demon King's body fell.

After a long time, Yunxian opened his eyes, stood up and whispered to Lin Lan:

"Sir Commander, the disaster she suffered was so severe that the reason why she can still maintain her life is because of the source of the disaster's pollutants."

Lin Lan was not surprised when he heard the conclusion reached by Yunxian after his analysis.

Because according to the historical records of Liaozhou Nine Islands, the Demon King's army was wreaking havoc on Liaozhou thousands of years ago.

The demon king that existed at that time was defeated by Yuki and has been sealed to this day. However, the Siren released the seal and captured him through unknown means.

After being eroded by the power of the mysterious enemy for such a long time, it was a miracle that the demon king in front of him could actually return to his original appearance.

But if the Demon King really relies on the energy of the mysterious enemy to survive, and he rashly eradicates the energy of the mysterious enemy from the Demon King's body, wouldn't the Demon King die on the spot?

So what's the point of the Purifier handing over the Demon King to him?
Considering that the black bone armor and scales on the body of the Demon King yesterday were not as severe as before, Lin Lan also thought about the analysis and said:

"If I guess correctly, if these pollutants in her body are not eradicated, they will definitely continue to regenerate and turn her into the monster she was just now."

"Not only that, Commander."

Yun Xian controlled the blue butterfly that was parked on the Demon King's chest to fly to her fingertips. She turned sideways and looked at Lin Lan with a somewhat complicated tone:
"The source of disaster pollution in her body will continue to emit the breath of disaster, which can subtly affect the surrounding environment and creatures, transforming it into a life structure similar to hers."

Lin Lan was reminded by Yunxian, and also thought of the black mist that filled the air around them just now.

Needless to say, it was precisely because of the Demon King's innate ability that the fragments of the invisible breath that had been basically harmless within the barrier of the Godly Tree were awakened.

This is really a big trouble.

Seeing that the Demon King showed no tendency to wake up for a while, Lin Lan asked Yun Xian to call in Nagato, Musashi and others who were guarding the outside of the shrine.

Now that the threat of the Demon King was temporarily lifted, he felt that it was necessary to discuss with the ship girls of Chong Sakura about how to deal with the Demon King next.

According to his original thinking, it was actually the safest way to directly kill the Demon King completely.

But what the Purifier said to him yesterday, as well as Siren's attitude towards the Demon King's army's experimental products, made him temporarily consider this method as the last resort.

After the Siren captured the Demon King and the monsters in the Demon King's army, he was fully capable of killing them directly, so why should he keep them in prison for research?

This shows that the Demon King and the Demon King's army definitely have a mystery that even the sirens cannot solve.

Lin Lan even seriously doubted that once the mystery surrounding the Demon King and the Demon King's army was solved, it would most likely become an effective help for them to fight against the mysterious enemy X.

After Nagato and the others arrived, Lin Lan told them everything that had just happened in a few words.

After listening to his narration and his guesses about the mystery surrounding the Demon King and the Demon King's army, Mikasa, the foresighted senior, was the first to agree with him.

"The commander is right. Killing the Demon King may seem easy, but if we don't figure out how she was corrupted by X, no one knows whether a second or third Demon King will appear."

Mikasa finished speaking firmly, Shinano also nodded, looked at Lin Lan and said: "However, Commander, did you ever remember that at the Sardinian Exhibition, even Marco Polo, a scientific research ship, was unable to resist the erosion of X?"

Lin Lan nodded to Shinano. Of course he remembered the game plot in which Marco Polo almost summoned the mysterious enemy X at the expo.

However, at that time, Marco Polo became so extreme due to the influence of the "crown" corroded by the X power. After the crown was chopped into pieces by Archbishop Richelieu of Iris, Marco Polo also returned to normal in the cell of the Sardinian Empire.

Seeing Lin Lan nodding, Shinano slowly expressed her opinion:

"The devil you just described is so similar to Marco Polo's situation at that time. It is very likely that she is kind in nature and became the devil after being influenced by X."

Shinano's words made everyone fall into deep thought.

Lin Lan felt that Shinano's reasoning was very likely. The reason why Marco Polo took the initiative to wear the crown contaminated by X was to let the Sardinian Empire rise and have the power to fight the Sirens.

It is mentioned in the plot of the game that the crown contaminated by X took the initiative to show Marco Polo a picture of the Siren fleet being defeated in front of the mysterious enemy.

It was through this method that X gradually induced Marco Polo's mind to become distorted.

If the Demon King was like Marco Polo and became as crazy as before under the influence of X, then it would be even more impossible for him to kill the Demon King.

You know, the crown contaminated by X appeared on Marco Polo's desk out of thin air for unknown reasons.

If X uses this method again in this different world, it is very likely that the horrific world-destroying disaster will be repeated.

Before that, he had to find a way to defeat this method from the Demon King.

After all, X was the demon king of pollution thousands of years ago, but now who knows whether X will find his ship girls again in this different world.

However, just when Lin Lan was sure of this and planned to ask Yun Xian and Nagato to use a barrier to seal the Demon King first, and then think of a way...

The little profiteer Akashi, who had been silent until now, squatted next to the Demon King and casually complained about the Demon King's return to his girlish appearance, but it shocked his heart.

"Obviously he is a demon king, but he is so handsome. He is completely different from the commander of the demon king's army that the commander first encountered, nya."

Akashi's comments made Lin Lan suddenly recall the scene in his spiritual world after he was sneak attacked by Abbott, the commander of the Demon King's Army, in Lihu County.

The terrifying eyeball monster showed its true form in his spiritual world and planned to kill him, but was purified by the spell carried by Akashi.

The moment Abbott was purified and dissipated, he seemed to see a black-red cube slowly turning into powder.

Later, after encountering Broken Dome, he learned that the black-red cube was the Yuan Rubik's Cube filled with meta energy.

"Abbott was obviously under the control of the Siren at the time and was sent to the United States of Oran by the Siren."

“As the leader of the Demon King’s army, it stands to reason that it should be contaminated by

"How come Abbott was not only alive and well at that time, but also had a certain amount of reason that allowed him to communicate with others?"

"Wait! Could it be..."

Lin Lan suddenly thought of a possibility. He looked at the little profiteer who was still squatting next to the Demon King, and asked eagerly:
"Akashi, did you bring the Mind Cube?"
