Chapter 414 I'm going to make dumplings because of this plate of vinegar!
The Scorpion wreckage fell, and the commotion it caused when it hit the ground was so great that it could be felt throughout the entire Tokyo safety zone.
Those at higher positions quickly noticed Scorpio's situation, and the Holy Emperor immediately called to inquire about the details after learning the news.
Upon learning that Scorpio had evolved—a commotion caused by the collapse of its old form—the Holy Emperor immediately realized that this was an opportunity to restore the confidence of the people in the safe zone.
"Broly, could I perhaps publicize the fall of Scorpio as a result of the safe zone's efforts?"
But this required asking Broly's opinion. The young Holy Princess, however, reiterated to Broly over the phone the problem of the loss of upper-class personnel from the safe zone in recent days.
"I'll go ask."
Broly looked at the wreckage at his feet, said something to the person on the other end of the phone, and then ran to ask Scorpio for his opinion on what to do with his original body.
"Scorpio, is it possible for someone else to use your original body as a villainous actor?"
However, Scorpio simply tilted his head in response to his question.
"Is this important to you?"
Broly could only pick up the shattered remains of the Great Scorpio from the ground and show them to the little octopus girl.
"The only things that matter are Dad, Mom, Mom..."
The little octopus girl seemed to understand what she was saying. She wrapped her body around Aqua, hooked her tail around Eris, and opened her two small, white arms to hug Broly. She gave a somewhat hesitant reply in a soft, cute voice.
Broly stroked Scorpio's chubby little head before replying to the Holy Emperor on the other end of the phone: "The old wreckage is unimportant to Scorpio. You can use it for publicity if you want."
In just a short time of interaction, Scorpio's happiness level rose to 70 points. This rapid increase in happiness level makes it impossible to doubt that she will become the best wife in the world in the future.
Of course, Scorpios are the best right now.
"Broly, may I do a physical exam for Scorpio?"
As soon as she hung up the phone, Sumire Muroto came over and asked.
"How would you like your physical exam done? A blood test or a biopsy?"
Broly became somewhat wary and asked the female doctor a question.
"If she's willing, draw some blood from me and cut some of her body tissue."
Sumire Muroto answered immediately.
"What?!"
Before Broly could reply, Aqua yelled.
"You actually want to do this to my daughter?"
Aqua hugged Scorpio tightly, like a mother hen protecting her chicks, and looked at Sumire Muroto with wary eyes.
"Ah, Lady Aqua, with Scorpio's self-healing ability, drawing blood and cutting slices will not affect her."
The female doctor quickly explained.
"I don't care. This child calls me Mom, and as a mother, I have to protect my child. I won't allow anyone to harm her. Blood tests are not allowed, and biopsies are even more unacceptable."
Aqua refused decisively and resolutely.
"Broly..."
Sumire Muroto could only look to the Saiyan boy for help.
"I'll listen to my master."
Broly stood on his master's side.
"Drawing blood and taking biopsies, that doesn't sound like something a good person would do, Ms. Sumire Muroto. You should really think about your own problems."
Eris also said.
The three stood to one side, protecting the little Scorpio.
Little Scorpio didn't understand why, but she felt that Aqua's embrace was very comfortable and that there was a very familiar scent about her, so she buried her head in Aqua's chest and rubbed against her.
"Hey, stop rubbing, it's a little itchy!"
Sumiremoto Muroto wanted to say that this was for the sake of scientific progress and the future of humanity.
But upon seeing this scene, he realized what was happening.
With a series of slaps, she slapped herself twice.
"Huh?"
Broly and the others were somewhat taken aback and looked at the female doctor who had suddenly slapped them twice in the face, not understanding what she was doing.
Then, Broly and the others saw Sumire Muroto bow to them and apologize: "I'm sorry, I apologize for what I just said."
"Uh, you didn't say anything really offensive, did you?"
Sumire Muroto was one of the leaders of the New Human Creation Project, wantonly modifying humans and turning them into half-machine, half-human beings.
Although it was originally intended to combat rampaging Gastrea around the world, the suffering and torment endured by those who were modified after the war cannot be ignored; it was an inhumane mechanical modification.
Countless people have died on the modification operating table. Sumire Muroto was once lost because of this. Later, it was Rentaro Satomi, the last person she modified, whose will to live saved her soul.
But now, she almost made the same mistake as before, subconsciously failing to treat Scorpios as human beings.
Drawing blood and taking biopsies are by no means evil acts; they are sometimes used in medical research with the aim of helping patients.
But clearly, her suggestion to draw blood and slice tissue was merely for her own research on gastrulation, which is inhumane and unethical.
"Aqua-senpai, did you secretly use a mind-purifying spell on this person?"
"Eris asked in a low voice."
"No, I didn't!"
Aqua answered softly.
"How could this person be so thoroughly self-critical?"
Eris, unaware of Sumire Muroto's past, was somewhat skeptical that Aqua hadn't done anything wrong.
"However, in addition to blood biopsies, we can also perform normal physical examinations."
The female doctor looked up, one side of her face slightly red and swollen, and said with a smile.
. . . .
Phase Six, Scorpio, half-human, half-octopus form, female, upper body appearance is that of a 6-8 year old human girl, body length 218cm (length of hair pulled up to the tip of the octopus tail), complete heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, uncorrected visual acuity of 8.3 in both eyes (eight times that of normal human vision), heart rate 43 beats/minute (half that of a normal human)...
Land travel speed: 54m/s; Land limb explosive power: The largest force measuring machine currently available is broken. Based on the collapse of the reinforced wall of the research institute, the giant stone monument establishing the safe zone will probably be broken after a few hits...
Possessing extraordinary abilities:
1. Super-fast regeneration (The specific regeneration speed is unknown due to lack of specific testing, but based on the division and recombination, it may have the ability to manipulate cells at a microscopic level within the body)
2. Chi Energy Bullet (Broly taught her to use Chi, a way to release energy from within the body. Scorpio learned it easily and released a small energy bullet that shattered a steel plate.)
3. Healing magic (Aqua taught her magic, and Scorpio easily learned it as well, but it requires consuming so-called divine power).
4. Lucky constitution (in a game of drawing cards and comparing card values, ten rounds per group, for a total of ten groups, Scorpios have a 75% win rate, suggesting they have a high luck stat, but unlike Eris, they cannot bestow lucky blessings upon others).
5. To be supplemented...
"Let's measure the underwater speed."
At dawn, Sumire Muroto was blessed with underwater breathing magic by Aqua and went into the sea with a professional underwater speed measuring device.
After the little octopus girl entered the sea, she swam around happily. When Broly placed her far away and clapped his hands to call her over, the little Scorpio was right in front of her in the blink of an eye.
"How many?"
Sumire Muroto was swept far away by the surging undercurrent. When she surfaced, she stared wide-eyed at the speed measured by the underwater speedometer.
The underwater speed is ten times the speed on land. Although this may not be entirely accurate, it should be at least supersonic.
But, breaking the sound barrier underwater?
After two measurements, both at roughly the same speed, Sumire Muroto landed.
Once ashore, she took out her phone, which she had left on the shore, and went online to check the performance of military submarines around the world.
The latest novel is first published here!
Yes, 66 knots, approximately 122 kilometers per hour, which translates to 33 m/s.
33 m/s vs. 540 m/s?
Well, the world's strongest marine creature has been born.
As long as they are in the sea, Scorpios are invincible.
Nuclear bombs pose no threat whatsoever, and the railgun is nothing but a joke.
As for electric shock, poisoning, or other methods?
Yes, looking at the huge waves crashing on the sea in the distance, the Saiyan boy was chasing and playing with Little Scorpio in the sea with a fierce posture.
Scorpios have powerful backers, and even if they don't, their self-healing abilities and resilience probably make them unafraid of high-voltage electricity.
As for poisons, there are researchers studying the toxins used to combat Gastrea, but unfortunately, can science compare to theology?
Is Lady Aqua's purification technique useless? Scorpio, on the other hand, can use magic. Although there are no magical elements in this world, she can indeed convert and use divine power.
"Broly~"
Sumire Muroto beckoned Broly over.
"What's wrong?"
Broly flew over quickly and, seeing the female doctor who was soaking wet and wearing only black lace, asked her a question.
"Can Scorpios learn your technique of converting qi into magic?"
"Yes, but the learning conditions are quite demanding. You might have to go to another world to become an adventurer, and after accumulating enough skill points, you can learn from my other lich wife."
Broly nodded in reply, but the price was not small; the happiness points gained from crossing boundaries alone were not a small amount.
While Scorpios can communicate, they probably can't go to unfamiliar worlds alone yet; they'd need an adult to accompany them.
. . . .
At eight o'clock in the morning, Scorpio seemed to be a little tired from playing, so Broly picked her up from the sea, and the little one was already wearing a black gothic outfit.
This is a set of clothes that Aqua made for Scorpio after seeing the ordinary clothes she originally dressed him in being washed away by the sea while he was swimming in the ocean. The clothes are very close-fitting and will not be easily damaged or come off his body, which has many advantages.
Broly also wanted to learn this trick, but unfortunately, after asking Aqua, he learned that this kind of clothing was made and maintained by divine power, just like the exclusive equipment of the goddess clan.
Broly doesn't have divine powers; he can't make these clothes.
Aqua can help make clothes, but for individuals without divine power, the clothes might suddenly disappear one day as the divine power inside is exhausted, leaving the wearer naked and exposed.
"If you're willing to take that risk, Broly, I can make you a few new clothes."
"Uh, forget it then, I don't want to wear the goddess's new clothes. But, won't a Scorpio suddenly have their clothes rip off?"
"This child possesses divine power, both mine and Eris's."
"Can divine power be replenished?"
"This is something else I wanted to say. For this child's future freedom of dress, I think we need to build a religious sect for her in this world!"
Aqua said seriously that divine power is transformed from the power of faith. This world may not be compatible with magic, but the power of faith is there.
Yesterday, the Holy Emperor became her follower, and some of the Initiator girls who were helped by the healing spell to achieve perfect Gastrea transformation also regarded Aqua as their savior.
. . . .
Broly returned to the Holy Residence with his entourage. Upon learning that Aqua intended to establish a new religion in this world, the young Holy Princess was initially taken aback, then her face lit up with joy. She asked, "Is Lady Aqua preparing to relieve our suffering and save our world?"
"Ha, save your world? By what right?"
Aqua looked at her with surprise after hearing the Holy Emperor's question.
"Uh, if it's not to save the world, then why did Lady Aqua establish a cult?"
The young Holy Emperor was also somewhat puzzled, looking at this goddess.
Aqua then told the other party about the divine power clothes on Scorpio's body.
"I decided to establish a sect so that this child could have the freedom to dress as he pleases in the future."
After saying that, Aqua even started complaining about saving the world.
"Saving a strange world is a thankless and exhausting task."
This world is not under my control, so saving it would not bring me any benefit.
It won't get me a promotion or a raise.
Even the celestial realm of my world wouldn't recognize this.
Who would have the time or inclination to do something so pointless and pointless?
Aqua is a pragmatist; don't even think about getting her to work for free.
However, if I had to say, there is indeed a way for her to save the world.
That is, to make most of the people in this world followers of the Axis religion.
Therefore, for the sake of her followers, Aqua would be willing and proactive in saving such a world.
Aqua's words shocked the young Holy Empress's impression of the gods; they were simply too snobbish.
"However, on the other hand, I can't save the world, but this child can."
Aqua points to the little one sleeping in Broly's arms.
"If everyone in this world becomes her faithful follower, I believe this child will also be willing to protect you."
Aqua has made up her mind. Just because Scorpio called her "Mom," she will teach Scorpio her knowledge of managing the world as a goddess, so as to help this child become the new god of this world.
With a god who is worshipped exclusively by an entire world, the little guy's future looks very bright.
