At night, in the eastern part of the world, two giants stood between the buildings, and some of the monster remains around them lit up flames.

"Wow-"

Putting away the lightsaber, Xia Long looked away from the monster wreckage, and after nodding lightly at Saiwen X, his entire body disappeared in the light.

"Whew~"

After falling to the ground, Xia Long hurried to the overpass, but Keiko was long gone.

Walking through the scattered cement blocks, the occasional sparks from the exposed power lines around them flickered.

"Crackle!"

"Keiko ......"

Looking at the calm of the night after the fire subsided, Xia Long exhaled lightly, paused and turned to leave the broken overpass.

What the hell is a worm and what happened to Keiko......

As a result, it still didn't figure it out.

Standing beside the fence by the lake, Xia Long looked at the undulating ripples and faintly lost his mind.

"Is the new giant also a savior? Where did he come from, who he was, and where did he go......"

"Please rest assured that you can enjoy a happy life......

The overhead monitor was broadcasting as always, and the sound echoed through the night sky.

"Compared to these......"

Glancing at the monitor, Xia Long walked under the street lamp with his hands in his pockets.

"Today's dinner hasn't been settled yet."

……

A few days later, somewhere in the western region.

The sun was shining, and Xia Long and Jin got together rarely, sitting on a park bench and talking.

"And then?" LOOKING AT A FEW CHEERFUL CHILDREN IN THE PARK, JIN ASKED.

About Keiko and the worm, Xia Long told him as if it were a story.

"I don't know." Xia Long crossed his fingers. Shaking his head. "But this time she is really missing, and it is said that no one sees her again, maybe she is dead, maybe she left this place and where she went, no one knows."

From beginning to end, he had only seen the girl twice, once when he received a missing mission, and Keiko suddenly appeared in the room during the investigation. The last time was when the insect monster appeared.

Thinking of the girl's haggard appearance in her pajamas, Xia Long couldn't help but ask, "JIN, how do you think you can save this world?" ”

"Me?" JIN SEEMED TO REMEMBER SOMETHING, AND A HINT OF CONFUSION APPEARED ON HIS FACE.

"Don't talk about this," seeing that JIN was silent, Xia Long changed the topic and said, "You seem to have investigated a case of brain atrophy these days, right?" ”

JIN nodded: "Well, there is a cosmic person who extracts the brain energy of wanderers, causing many people's brains to shrink abnormally and die. ”

"Brain energy?" Xia Long looked at JIN in surprise, "Sounds like a terrible case." Is the cosmic being experimenting with something? ”

"NO," JIN INTERRUPTED. "It's not an experiment, it's a high-paying use of those Hopenless, which takes energy from the brain and feeds it to another invasive device."

“Hopenless？”

"I only know about wanderers who don't have a job, lose hope in life, and wander around all day," JIN continued, "I investigated the case with K, and then pretended to be looking for a job and infiltrated the other party's factory among the wanderers......"

Speaking of this, JIN frowned slightly: "Those people know that they are making tools to invade the earth, and they know that they are consuming their own lives, and they are still thinking about money...... In the end, the factory was locked down, and the liberated people acted as if nothing had happened......"

"It's normal, for these people." Xia Long stood up and walked to the pool. "Also, the cosmic man said that he was only commissioned to make an invasion weapon," said Jin as he followed Xia Long, "Employer, it's a human. ”

"Human ......" Xia Long laughed bitterly, "This world is really complicated. ”

Compared with the cosmic invaders, humanity's own problems are much more serious.

FEELING THE CONFUSION IN JIN'S HEART, XIA LONG SAID SOFTLY: "NO MATTER WHAT, JIN, DON'T BE CONFUSED, DO YOUR OWN THING." ”

Through the jet of water sprayed in the center of the pool, Xia Long noticed a woman in white appeared on the other side of the park, looking at this side indifferently, her eyes lingering on Xia Long for a moment before turning away.

"Did she tell you anything?" XIA LONG SUDDENLY ASKED JIN.

"Huh?" JIN WAS STUNNED, AND AFTER NOTICING THE WHITE FIGURE ALONG XIA LONG'S LINE OF SIGHT, HE SHOOK HIS HEAD AND SAID, "NOT YET, BUT SHE WILL BE THERE ALMOST EVERY TIME THERE IS AN INCIDENT." ”

JIN STARED BLANKLY IN THE DIRECTION THE WOMAN HAD LEFT.

Xia Long was silent for a while and said, "There should be some important reason, everything will be clear when the time comes." ”

HE COULDN'T SENSE THE OTHER PARTY'S MALICE, AND THE OTHER PARTY LOOKED AT JIN VERY STRANGELY, AS IF HE WAS LOOKING AT SOMEONE CLOSE TO HIM.

JIN NODDED AND ASKED, "WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU?" ”

"R, Keiko...... This kind of incident will not end, and I don't know what will happen in the future," sighed, Xia Long chuckled, "If you think about it carefully, this world is like a hotbed of darkness, and the battle that belongs to me is probably coming soon." ”

"Darkness?"

"Well," without saying much, Xia Long pointed to the VC and said, "I'm going to meet a temporary partner later, and I'll talk about it later." ”

……

In the β area, in the cold night, Xia Long walked through the alley in a black trench coat, and finally entered an abandoned warehouse.

This is the meeting place he and his partner agreed to meet.

There is a kind of agent in DUES who specializes in undercover work, and in the simple information provided by artificial intelligence, his temporary partner, an agent codenamed S, is this kind of existence.

"At least talk to me about it first." Thinking that the other party was directly lurking in the suspicious organization, Xia Long was a little helpless.

"This case was originally my investigation, and you just intervened temporarily." The woman dressed as a waitress snorted and walked towards Xia Long, "Hello, meet again, X." ”

"It's you!" After seeing the face of the visitor, Xia Long was slightly surprised, "You are S?" ”

With a slightly baby fat face and a pretty temperament, it was the day I came to this world that I met the waiter at the DELPHI Club bar.

S was quite satisfied with Xia Long's reaction, smiled, and went straight to the point: "The target is the building on the opposite street, an alien that can disguise itself as a human, hidden in the club. ”

Xia Long looked at the light and faintly sensed some abnormal aura.

"What about the others?" Retracting his gaze, Xia Long continued to ask.

"I've been investigating for a week, and so far all I know is what they're secretly planning." As he was speaking, S ignored Xia Long's strange gaze, took out a box of chocolates from his arms and chewed it naturally, "Anyway, I'll continue to stay inside, and you are responsible for picking it up here." ”

"Hey, it's too dangerous, isn't it?" Xia Long wanted to say something, but S turned around and left directly, very simply.

The location of the warehouse was just right to see the movement of the building opposite, and Xia Long kept an eye on the VC while observing.

There are many aliens hidden on Earth in this world, some of them were discovered by DUES, and some of them were not discovered, but most of them are of average strength, and those who have monsters or can transform into monsters themselves are already considered high-level existences.

EITHER WAY, OF COURSE, IT'S A BIT OF A HASSLE FOR DUES, BUT IT'S NOT MUCH OF A THREAT TO HIM AND SEVEN.

"It's almost ......"

After waiting for about half an hour, just as Xia Long was about to go over and take a look for himself, a figure rushed out of the building, followed by a group of people in black.

“S！” After seeing the figure running in front of him, Xia Long hurriedly took out the laser gun and rushed out of the warehouse.

"Let's go!" S rushed in front of Xia Long, pulled Xia Long up and ran away without saying anything.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Dodging the ray attack behind him, Xia Long hurriedly asked.

"Bang!" The men in black were all holding a powerful weapon in their hands, and the surrounding buildings were all beaten into honeycombs, and white gas continued to emerge from the melted gaps.

"I killed their leader," S said in a deep voice, "get out of here first!" ”

"Wait a minute!" Running between the warehouses with puddles everywhere, Xia Long grabbed S.

"What are you doing?"

"There's one up ahead!" Xia Long looked left and right, and in the induction, there were also a few breaths at the fork in front of him, "The first 3 are handed over to you, and the back ones are handed over to me." ”

"Click!" Preparing the laser gun, without waiting for S to respond, Xia Long walked straight to the group of black-clothed people behind him.

To deal with these enemies, you don't even need to transform, let alone run away.

"Bang bang bang!" After the VC extended a transparent energy barrier, Xia Long continued to shoot at the black-clothed man's attack, while his telekinesis fluctuated and spread across the night sky.

"Boom!"

After only a while, by the time S had eliminated the 3 in front of him, all the men in black who were chasing had fallen to the ground.

"Is that all?" Putting away his telekinesis, Xia Long waited for a while, then turned back to S and asked.

"It's a lot of two hits." S pushed away the man in black who was knocked down in his hand, with an inexplicable smile on his face, "You will be my new partner in the future, XIA-kun~"

"Huh?" Putting down the pistol and facing S's strange eyes, Xia Long shrank uncomfortably. (To be continued.) )
