It's raining.

A warm desk lamp illuminated the desk, raindrops continued to fall on the window glass outside, and occasionally distant thunder could be heard.

The silver-haired Sylutia was sitting at the desk, wearing a loose coat over her thin clothes. She looked at the table under the desk lamp, which counted the death toll and Plague prevention and control status in various regions in the past month.

Although many people still died, fortunately, this number finally stabilized and stopped expanding.

It's a rare good thing.

She put down the form, leaned back on the chair, raised her head slightly, and looked at the dim wooden ceiling, with the sound of rain in her ears.

Compared with the dull cloudy days, it is better to have calm rain. Listening to the sound of raindrops, you can sleep peacefully, and Sylutia's thoughts are flying.

"Dong dong", there was a small knock on the door, and then the door was pushed open.

Camilla walked in wearing a dark red pajama dress and holding a plate in her hand.

"Let's have some dinner, Tia." She put the plate down, then took out the small gilt porcelain bowl inside, scooped out some of the hot porridge with a spoon, and poured it into it.

"Thank you." Sylutia took the small bowl and spoon, and drank slowly.

The porridge contains not only rice grains, but also a small amount of vegetables and meat. It is quite delicious and warm when you drink it, which is quite comfortable at night.

Seeing Sylutia eating, Camilla sat down opposite her, held his head lightly with both hands, and watched quietly.

Feeling the bright red eyes on the other side, Sylutia looked away slightly, then asked, breaking the silence.

"Camilla Have you eaten?"

"Have eaten." came the affirmative answer from the other side, and then the room fell into silence again.

The rain kept sliding down the glass. The night was getting darker and the whole world was enveloped in the sound of rain.

After finishing a bowl and a half, Sylutia felt that it was almost done, so he put the spoon in the bowl and stopped.

"Leave it here, I'll take it out later." Camilla said.

"Okay."

Then the two continued to sit at the table.

After being quiet for a while, Sylutia spoke again and asked about Camilla's recent situation.

"My work has been going well lately." Camilla thought for a moment, and her rosy golden hair glowed with a faint warmth in the halo of the table lamp.

"Some time ago, together with the Inquisition Hall's people, we destroyed a secret testing ground of Delin District." She turned her head and recalled.

"This should be the last few test sites in the Alliance. It is difficult to find relevant traces now."

"Did you find anything inside?" The girl was a little curious.

"If I found it, there were probably a few experimenters alive inside. After I got rid of a few Dark Wizard, I saw a few people in cages, and one of them almost turned into a monster." She lowered her head in memory, and the hair on her forehead fell down, embellishing her beautiful face with a bit of charm.

"However, the goals of their research are quite novel."

"It is said that humans are allowed to fuse the Magic Creature bloodline of the Twilight Sea. After that, people with this bloodline can survive in the Twilight Sea."

"According to colleagues Mage, these Dark Wizard are looking for a way out for themselves."

"In the battle between Gold Steam" and "Nightmare" a year ago, Two-Headed Serpent was defeated miserably, and about three-quarters of its body was smelted into scrap iron. He wanted to come back later, but he didn't know that it would take hundreds of years to recuperate. The remnants of Cult who are still in the Fourth Continent naturally have to find a way out for themselves."

What are the results of the experiment?" Sylutia is also a little curious as to whether humans can survive in the Twilight Sea.

"It seems that it has just begun, and the results are limited." Camilla said, looking at the bookcase behind the girl.

"The problem with living in the Twilight Sea is that the erosion of Distortion" will cause changes in the body. The specific manifestation is that Fate Card "is corroded, and then the body cannot maintain the basic order" and gradually disintegrates and becomes unbalanced, and then dies."

"Transcendent's resistance will be much stronger, but ordinary people will get seriously ill or die directly if it sticks to it even a little bit." She explained slowly.

"But, those Magic Creature are also living beings, why aren't they afraid?" Sylutia thought of this.

"That's right, those Dark Wizard were also interested in this, and then they also concluded some rules."

"First of all, many Magic Creature are the descendants of Abomination Nest Mother. They are naturally blessed by Hour. They are the products of Distortion's mutation. Everything they do is the will of Abomination Nest Mother. There is no resistance, so they can survive."

"Secondly, there are some creatures that have gradually adapted to the environment there. If these monsters trace their ancestors, they are probably the various creatures that lived on Sixth Era before Primordial Land."

"During the great war of Seventh Era, the original continent was shattered, and the entire land was eroded and corrupted by the descended Alien Star" and the great life. Then the remaining Six Dragons of Law selected seven relatively intact pieces of land and raised them above Twilight Cloud Sea, which is the world we are in now."

"Although we survived, those lives that were not saved will forever remain in Primordial Land below Twilight Sea."

"Most of the creatures became extinct and died, and only a few managed to survive. Then they gradually adapted to the Twilight Sea environment. Although the origin of life will still be damaged, the mortality rate is extremely high, etc., at least the race has continued."

"And as long as these monsters are given a chance, they will desperately climb up and rush into the Surface Continent. In any case, compared to the extremely harsh lower level of the Twilight Sea, Surface Continent is as beautiful to them as Heavenly Courtyard."

"In other words, these creatures are basically resistant, but they still cannot offset the erosion of Distortion". They can only continue the group and life as much as possible." Sylutia thought.

"Yes, Tia is very smart, he understood it right away." Camilla praised.

The erosion caused by "Distortion" is at the level of laws. It is impossible to completely resist the changes of living things alone. Just like plants, no matter how they grow, they will still be burned to ashes when encountering extremely high-temperature flames."

"Mutation is just an adjustment, not omnipotent. It cannot create power out of thin air, nor can it resist some ultimate laws and regulations."

"The same is true for that Two-Headed Serpent. He is the descendant of Heikuis" and has inherited this name. Twilight Sea is a former ancient battlefield and the place where hundreds of millions of lives were buried. Below are "Nightmare" and Dead Ember"Aspect Power gathers together, where it can receive great power blessings, and it can also develop slowly. With the help of these two swallowed Aspect Power powers, it can resist the erosion of Distortion", so that it can survive for a long time in the Twilight Sea."

"However, according to the inference of some scholars, even if Heikuis can resist the erosion of Distortion, it still needs to enter a dormant state from time to time to recover its physical strength. In the dormant state, the pulse of Blood Law" in the body seems to be still, which can also greatly enhance the resistance to the erosion of "Distortion"."

"Not even Heikuis" is completely immune?"

"Yes, if the erosion caused by Distortion" was really so easy to overcome, then Six Dragons of Law would have solved it long ago by Seventh Era."

If so, it can be foreseen that this war against Plague and erosion will be extremely long. Where is Key who can solve the dilemma?
