    When all the dust settled, the people of Atlantis began to clean up their disaster-ravaged home. After the joy of victory, grief for the dead soon followed. This disastrous event had a profound impact on Atlantis.  The scars caused to Sri Lanka's people are unimaginable.  Since they fled their homeland 760,000 years ago, these remaining "descendants of gods" have been fighting side by side like brothers and sisters, supporting each other and surviving the darkest years together. They persisted because of an almost impossible and slim hope.  Today, this disaster that fell from the sky caused nearly two-thirds of them to leave the world forever. In the corners of the city, you can see Atlantean civilians cleaning up the corpses and dealing with the aftermath. The sadness in their eyes  Almost diluted the joy of victory.

    A large number of corpses were concentrated in the square in the center of the city. Among them were mutated humans who were killed, and city guards who died in the counterattack. When the abyss retreated, these enemies and ourselves who had exhausted their last efforts to fight each other returned to the battlefield.  Lying on the same land, there is no more hatred and fighting, and we jointly accept the condolences from the tribesmen.

    Before Atlantis set sail, Shandora and I left the carrier ship and came to the city again. There was a ceremony that required us to appear in person - this was our initiative.

    "Most of the people gathered in this square are war dead who have no relatives. Their entire families have been sacrificed, or they were alone." Ares leaned over and said in my ear, "Most of them  Man did not survive until the gods returned. But your gaze and concern can comfort the souls of these warriors, and they can go home without worry."

    As Ares spoke, the crowd in the square suddenly dispersed to both sides. The time had come, and the priest in charge of the requiem ceremony walked out of the crowd passage.  He wore a thick black cloak that completely covered his face, and wore the sacred emblem of the Crystal Cross on his chest. He was walking barefoot on the cold stone road holding a tray containing crystal dust. Behind the priest were two men in white cloaks.  Assistant Priest, the latter held two ancient devices in his hands, which looked like small suitcases.

    "The soldiers who shed all their blood, the heroes who fell on the battlefield, and the dead who finally got rid of the curse of the devil and obtained a clean soul." The priest stood in front of the huge pile of corpses that was almost unbearable to look at, and spoke with a strange  , a voice that was not very loud but could reach the ears of every listener recited a short prayer, "You have gone through difficult times and experienced dangerous fates, and now you can finally relax your body and mind and welcome the peace of this moment. Life  The last battle in the journey has ended. You have not retreated or surrendered. Regardless of victory or defeat, you are worthy of the name of Atlantis. Now, the journey at the other end is waiting for you, on this road that no living person can walk on.  I hope you can continue to move forward with the glory given by God. The crystal given by God will soothe your tired body, and the pure blue light will heal your soul. Children, go on the road, travel lightly, let  We meet again in our hometown"

    With the low chanting, the tray in the priest's hand also emitted a soft blue light. Special crystal powder floated out one after another, as if it turned into light and merged into the corpses in the square. The two assistant priests completely merged with the crystal powder.  After entering the pile of corpses, he took a step forward and opened the strange machine in his hand. But at this moment, a sudden commotion came from outside the crowd, interrupting the ceremony that was about to be completed.

    Two small figures strode in through the gaps between the tall figures around them, carrying a severe low pressure along the way, arousing exclamations from all around.

    "Why are you two here?"

    I looked at the two little twins in front of me in surprise, and quickly pressed their heads one by one with one hand to comfort them gently: "Ding-dang, sir, how much mental determination did these two ten thousand-year-old 1.2-meter-twenty-year-olds who are full of resentment just walk away from each other?"  A group of giants who were at least twice as tall as me walked calmly between the calves!

    Pandora and Visca had been obeying my orders and stayed on the mothership obediently. Even in the final battle, they did not show up (I was really afraid that Visca's fighting posture would destroy the morale of the Atlantean warriors.  sexual assault), but why did they come out without saying a word now?

    I looked up at the crowd around me. Obviously, Viska's appearance triggered a very serious wave of panic. Almost all the civilians looked at us with frightened eyes. They retreated one after another, whispering softly.  Phew, the buzzing sound like a swarm spread throughout the square in an instant, and the "blood-red devil with vertical pupils" spread among the crowd like a curse. When faced with the disaster caused by the star ring fragments, no one retreated.  After seeing Huesca, the people of Atlantis burst into collective fear.

    But the panic turned into panic, chaos and violence did not occur, civilians and war fighters?? place, so many monsters living in the plains under the mountains have lost their homes. Apart from Reimu, who has no moral integrity and openly declared that she has twenty-seven properties in the forest that need compensation, we also have to deal with those fires.  And settled a large number of people.

    The above two points are all the problems that need to be solved. The situation is not complicated and the losses are not serious, but they are unavoidable responsibilities in any case.  Gensokyo certainly has the ability to rebuild the damaged houses and villages in time after such an incident, but several severely irradiated places are not easy to recover in a short time. There is psionic energy wandering everywhere there. Even with the empire's technology, it is difficult to recover in a short time.  It also takes time to deal with psionic radiation, which is not the same concept as nuclear radiation.  Although Gensokyo seems to be harmonious, there are actually complex divisions of forces. These divisions of forces are different from the borders where humans often fight with each other. Instead, they are divided based on the monsters' usual social habits and territorial concepts. Although  Such areas of influence are not as serious as national borders, but it also shows that different monsters have their own territories. Residents on Monster Mountain cannot register in the forest, and retail investors on the plains cannot apply for visas when going to the lake. In the short term,  It's not a big problem if you stay here for a day or two, but if it goes on for a long time, problems may arise: everyone knows that monsters are usually the most troublesome.

    So the idea of ??letting the guys on Monster Mountain rent a house with relatives and give them a severance package is not feasible.

    The most ideal solution now is to temporarily move the monsters who lost their homes to Avalon. I fully believe that the environment of that place can make any guy with normal aesthetics linger and fool them in a short time.  He spent all the demolition compensation money to buy a house with a local mortgage, but the only resistance at present is Hakurei Reimu: in order to get more demolition compensation money, the unscrupulous Kohaku has been sparing no effort to promote himself and Yakumo Murasaki.  In the Shadow City, she was bullied, worked hard, and worked hard to redeem her time. She tried to make all Gensokyo residents fear the Shadow City and all its attached living facilities, so that she could "convert the compensatory living area of ??all residents into cash."  I have always been deeply abhorred by the evil purpose of poaching imperialism to line individualist pockets, defrauding rural residents of their legal urban Suqian land, and seeking personal gain through information asymmetry, so last night  I sent an urgent call to Artemis and asked Artemis to seize the time to organize the heroic spirits to start compiling a guide to living in Avalon, and also prepared to establish more than 20 public welfare travel agencies, headed by the most famous 20 heroic spirits in Avalon who are good at using spears.  The president of the travel agency, in order to ensure that the residents of Gensokyo during the field trip have a perfect travel experience (believe me, all unexpected situations will be attracted by the presidents), and on these foundations, he quickly established a travel agency oriented to imperialist values.  The new generation of Avalon real estate development promotion leadership team must quickly let the demolished households in Gensokyo move in no matter what. Even if they don¡¯t move in, they must quickly use various tourism projects to earn back the demolition compensation money, at least they must not do it cheaply.  Forget Reimu's lack of moral integrity!  (To be continued.
