“Sorry, I misunderstood you. Without this item, it’s indeed difficult to distinguish between good and evil Digimon. We also encountered a ferocious Digimon before. If we hadn’t hidden in a tree hollow at the critical moment, we probably wouldn’t have made it this far.”
As she spoke, Mimi’s mind couldn’t help but recall the image of that large Etemon from before…
“Alright, since we have a clue, we have to go and check it out no matter what. Zhou Zhu, you lead the way.”
Discovering that Zhou Zhu didn’t have a Sacred Plan, Taiyi didn’t dwell on the topic but regrouped, ready to continue exploring.
“Alright, then you all follow me.”
The Andromon storyline absolutely cannot have the slightest error. Otherwise, if something goes wrong and Andromon’s Black Gear isn’t shattered, the result would be catastrophic. A Ultimate Level Digimon is simply not something the current main characters can handle.
While calculating in his mind, Zhou Zhu, holding Candlemon, led the Chosen Children towards the factory power room adorned with various symbols.
In any case, judging from the original work, Kabuterimon played a significant role in dealing with Andromon. Before going to find Andromon, at least Koushiro’s Tentomon must evolve first.
However, fortunately, Koushiro’s Tentomon, in terms of Evolution, is not like the Chosen Children, who rely entirely on spiritual power. If he remembered correctly, in this episode, Tentomon evolved through data transmitted by Koushiro.
Creak~ Creak~ Creak~
Thump thump thump~ Thump thump
Inside the silent factory, besides the sounds of various machinery operating, there were only the sounds of a few people and their Digimon partners walking.
“Zhou Zhu, since you don’t have a Sacred Plan, how did the Digimon in your arms evolve? From the data, Candlemon seems to be a Rookie Digimon.”
As Taiyi observed Candlemon with his Sacred Plan, he couldn’t help but recall when he first encountered Agumon, who was then a Koromon in its Fresh stage.
“This? I don’t know either. When I met him in Founding Village, Candlemon was still a Yan Yun Beast. He only evolved into Candlemon a short while ago.”
Regarding Taiyi’s confusion, Zhou Zhu directly feigned ignorance and stated the truth. Taiyi would understand later, once he became familiar with the Digital World, that Digimon don’t only evolve through the Sacred Plan.
“Taiyi, Zhou Zhu’s Candlemon should be different from our partners. After all, from the Digimon we’ve encountered before, those Champion Level Digimon should have also evolved on their own. Instead, our Sacred Plans seem a bit unusual,” the observant Koushiro suddenly interjected.
What kind of existence is the Sacred Plan, after all? Judging from the Digimon in this world’s original work, they should all be able to evolve, but they don’t rely on the Sacred Plan for Evolution like the Digimon partners of this group of people.
“Koushiro is right. My partner Candlemon’s Evolution method should be like that of ordinary Digimon. But can your items really make your Digimon partners evolve? But why are Agumon and the others still Rookie?”
Although he knew the original plot, Zhou Zhu still pretended to be surprised and asked.
“Hahaha, I don’t understand that either. Agumon had already evolved into a Champion Level Digimon before, but then he devolved back into Agumon.” Facing Zhou Zhu’s confusion, Taiyi ran his hand through his spiky hair, a hint of helplessness in his expression.
“It can even devolve? From my observations during this time, it shouldn’t be possible for Digimon to devolve after Evolution. Speaking of which, it’s really convenient that you have this Sacred Plan. Ah, we’re here. This is the power room I mentioned earlier.”
As they spoke, Zhou Zhu had already led them to the entrance of the power room that Koushiro discovered in the original work.
Creak~
Taiyi pushed the door open from the outside, revealing a small, secret room covered in various symbols.
“Hmm? Is this it?”
Yamato surveyed the patterns around him, showing little interest in understanding them. These obscure scribbles were completely incomprehensible.
Hoping to find clues from this was less promising than trying to get some information from the mysterious Digimon that was stuck.
“What is this? I can’t understand it at all. Zhou Zhu, can this really stop the factory’s power system by erasing a bit, as you said?” Looking at the various patterns covering the walls, Mimi’s small hand was a bit eager to try.
“Mimi, don’t mess around. The erased part must be restored to its original state before the factory can continue to operate. If you erase it randomly and then can’t remember the original pattern, the entire factory will permanently stop running.”
Seeing Mimi’s expression, Zhou Zhu quickly spoke to stop her. This kind of thing was no laughing matter. Although he didn’t know what the consequences of erasing everything would be, it was better to remain still than to act in such a situation. Before he had the strength to control the overall situation, it was better not to take risks.
“What? I just wanted to try it.” Although she wasn’t entirely convinced, with Zhou Zhu’s reminder, Mimi decided not to test whether these patterns were as Zhou Zhu said.
Clang~~~
A sound of machinery closing echoed, and all the machinery within the factory instantly stopped operating, and the surrounding lights also went out.
“Who? Who touched the patterns on this? Quickly put it back.”
Noticing the commotion around him, and combining it with what Zhou Zhu had said earlier, Taiyi immediately understood the reason for the factory’s lights going out.
“I did it. I just wanted to understand more about how this factory operates. It seems these patterns on the wall are the source of this factory’s energy. However, it’s truly strange that these alone can drive so much machinery.”
As Koushiro spoke, he also took out the marker pen he carried with him and completed the patterns he had previously erased.
Hum~~~
As Koushiro made the final stroke, the factory’s power system resumed operation.
“Alright, there’s nothing good to see here. Should we go find the stuck Digimon first? Maybe we can get some clues from him.”
Although intrigued by the effect of the patterns on the wall, Yamato was still somewhat impatient and wanted to leave this dreadful place quickly.
“You all go ahead. I still need to research these patterns on the wall. They seem to be some kind of network programming, and my computer is out of power, so this is a good place to charge it.”
Facing Yamato’s suggestion, Koushiro directly stated his own opinion.
