On the shore of the lake, Xia Long leaned against the guardrail, looking at the lake in a daze.

"What's the matter, aren't all the worms destroyed? You don't seem to be very happy. S hesitated for a moment and walked over to Xia Long's side.

After seeing that it was S, Xia Long sighed lightly: "It's nothing." ”

It's been almost 2 months since he entered the world of Severn X, and he is still just passively coping, going around calming down the various effects of the anomalous energy.

Although there are some clues compared to the beginning, but ......

"Give." S took out a piece of chocolate and handed it to Xia Long, and when Xia Long took it, a smile appeared on his face, and he also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, tasting it intoxicated.

Xia Long knew S's special love for chocolate very well, and it was the first time he saw her share it with others, and he looked at it in wonder for a while, but he didn't have the heart to eat it.

"NA, IS XIA A SAVIOR?" S asked, looking ahead and pretending to be casual.

"Savior?" Putting down the chocolate, Xia Long glanced at S, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I never think of myself as a savior, just a warrior with limited abilities." ”

"Warriors?" S looked at Xia Long.

"Well, Ultra Warrior." Xia Long nodded and looked at the night sky.

There doesn't seem to be an Ultra Star in this world.

"But, for everyone, XIA is already very powerful," S said as he continued to eat chocolate, "XIA has saved a lot of people. ”

"Perhaps." Looking at the quiet S, Xia Long smiled and didn't say much.

……

"Confirmed UFO intrusion at JQ1......3 in β area"

The next day, Xia Long received a new task again.

In the β area, after investigating the UFO crash site, Xia Long and S acted separately and came to the vicinity of the "Fredric" bar alone.

With the efforts of artificial intelligence. The impact of the bug incident was confined to the eastern region, and the distant β remained as calm as usual, and the most talked about was the "savior" feature curated by artificial intelligence.

Of course, this time there is a new hot spot.

"In the β area where UFOs have been confirmed, there have been witnesses of glowing globules one after another......"

"Because it flies like a living thing, it's called the Soul of Light. Please be vigilant in the surrounding area! ”

Floating monitors were broadcasting as usual, and the occasional person looked up on the street.

Soul of Light......

Xia Long stopped and thought silently.

"Ahh An exclamation came from behind Xia Long, and Xia Long looked back and found that it was Long Nan with a surprised face.

"Mr. Takatsuo?"

In a small room, Xia Long sat on the sofa under the greeting of Takashio.

"Sorry, it's a bit small." Takashi smiled embarrassedly and hurriedly took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator.

"Mr. Takatsuo used to live here." Xia Long looked at the furnishings in the room. Most of the discoveries are related to the universe.

Aliens, model rockets, spaceship ornaments, astronomical telescopes, some space movie posters on the walls, and even a poster with only a strange footprint.

Xia Long paid attention to the notes and found that they were the footprints of the first human landing on the moon.

It's a cosmic fan.

"Didn't Mr. Takao go to work?" Taking the beer, Xia Long asked curiously, "I'm not mistaken. Mr. Takao seems to leave work at 4 p.m., right? Is it sick? ”

Takashi sat awkwardly on the side, embarrassed: "My words." Kind of escape. ”

"Escape?" Xia Long was slightly stunned.

"WELL," HE SMILED SELF-DEPRECATINGLY, AND TAKAO CONTINUED, "XIA, I ALWAYS FEEL LIKE A NIGHTMARE IN MY LIFE. I don't know when I'm going to wake up. ”

Xia Long put down his beer and looked at the tired Takashi without speaking.

Compared with numb people, the relatively sober Takashi will be tormented by pain, and he has only been seen for a while, and he looks thinner than before. His face was withered, like a faint starlight fading in the night sky.

"What will my life look like?" Takashi stared blankly out the window, the huge monitor flew right outside, and after the formulaic broadcast, boring advertisements filled his ears.

After taking a sip of beer, Long Nan turned to Xia Long and said, "It's ...... to make you laugh, it's just "

"I understand," Charon asked, shaking his head absentmindedly, "Did Alyssa tell you about that?" ”

"Universe?" Takashi smiled bitterly, "I really want to go to the universe to see it, but even XIA ......"

Xia Long patted Long Nan on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "How do you know if you don't try?" Okay, I'll come back to you when I'm done with this work. ”

"NO MATTER IF YOU CAN GO TO THE UNIVERSE OR NOT, THANK YOU, XIA," TAKAO NODDED, LOOKING AT THE BEER CAN IN HIS HAND AND SAID, "ACTUALLY, I WAS REALLY ENVIOUS WHEN I HEARD THAT YOU WERE ENGAGED IN A JOB DEALING WITH THE UNIVERSE, SO I ......"

Long Nan squeezed out a smile at Xia Long: "You must work hard, work hard with the dream I gave up!" ”

"Hmm." Xia Long bowed slightly.

The clerk in front of him was still a little unconvinced, but he said that taking the other party to the universe would definitely come true, although only once, and it was also to take advantage of the opportunity to fulfill a dream of the man.

As a decent friend, he doesn't want Takashi to give up his dream.

"This dark world needs hope to save it." Xia Long raised the beer can and said to the clerk in front of him in a daze, "Mr. Takanan, I will fight until the last moment, so don't give up your dream easily, okay?" ”

……

"From last night to today, there have been a total of 29 reports of attacks by the Soul of Light, but the death toll is 0."

"The body of the person who was attacked did not find any abnormality."

At the temporary meeting point, Xia Long meets with JIN, S, and K to discuss the news of the Soul of Light.

"That's weird!"

"THAT LIGHT, MAYBE IT'S LOOKING FOR SOMETHING," JIN SAID AFTER A MOMENT'S THOUGHT, "I FEEL THAT WAY." ”

"Don't say anything about subjective speculation," S turned his head in disappointment and turned to Xia Longdao, "XIA, have you found anything?" ”

Xia Long leaned back in his chair and shook his head, "Not yet, I haven't even encountered an attack." ”

For a moment, he almost thought that the Spirit of Light was deliberately avoiding him, and although the area of the β was large, he didn't encounter it once when he walked around, and it was a little unreasonable.

"Anyway, continue to track down the true body of that light tonight."

At night, Xia Long still didn't find the slightest trace of the soul of light, as if he was playing hide and seek with him.

"Is JIN still outside?" When they returned to the meeting point again, S and K were working on something.

"How's it going over there?" S looked at Xia Long.

"Nothing." Xia Long shook his head helplessly and walked over to K and sat down, "I can only look at JIN's, what about you guys?" ”

Since JIN is the protagonist of this world, his luck should be better than him.

"The cells of extraterrestrial life have been examined in the soil on the ground at the crash site," K turned the computer screen to Xia Long, "It's surprising that the creature is at least twenty thousand years old. ”

As he spoke, K called up the analysis data and said, "Maybe this creature has undergone evolution after evolution, and will eventually evolve to the ultimate form. ”

"Twenty thousand years old, evolutionary ......" Xia Long stared at the flooded cell microstructure on the screen.

Will the final form be the same light as Ultraman?

Xia Long's eyes fluctuated, and a trace of curiosity rose in his heart about this "soul of light".

Soon after, JIN returned to the meeting point, but to everyone's disappointment, JIN also found nothing, and his investigation of the Soul of Light was in trouble.

This continued until the next day.

"There has been no sighting of the Soul of Light since last night, and the last sighting location is F-315 in the β area."

"Okay, let's focus on the area around this area today."

Faced with this situation, several people once again split up.

"XIA," JIN FOLLOWED RYU, "MR. TAKAO AND I MENTIONED YOU LAST NIGHT. ”

"JIN also knows Mr. Takao?" Xia Long was stunned, remembering that Long Nan seemed to have indeed seen a person who was very similar to him before, and it turned out to be JIN.

"WELL," JIN NODDED, PULLING OUT A CARD, "MR. TAKAO SEEMS TO LIVE OVER THERE." ”

β area F-319, Xia Long and JIN come to the Takashi apartment building together.

There was still some chaos in the room, and the phone kept ringing.

"Huh? Didn't go to the company? JIN PICKED UP THE PHONE AND FOUND THAT IT WAS RYUNAN'S COMPANY CALLING.

Seeing JIN put down the microphone with a solemn face, Xia Long wondered, "Does Mr. Long Nan have anything to do with this matter?" ”

After leaving the meeting place, JIN rushed to bring him over.

"No, I just have a feeling." AFTER A PAUSE, JIN RUSHED OUT OF THE ROOM FIRST.

"Feelings?" Xia Long walked to the balcony.

HE HAD NO PREMONITION OF DANGER, BUT JIN'S FEELINGS MIGHT BE REAL.

Picking up a can of beer that he hadn't finished drinking, Xia Long's lips moved slightly.

"Mr. Takatsuo......" (To be continued.) )

PS: Ah, update first, the world of Severn X is coming to an end soon
