Chapter 38: The Return
The portal behind Laura faded away, and a canvas bag floating beside her fell to the ground.
After opening it and looking at it, it was his own battle armor and inner armor, and after putting the battle armor into the space and replacing it with the inner armor, he found that there was a fist-sized green irregular crystal at the bottom of the bag.
"This thing was stuffed in by the Ancient One? What a sense of déjà vu of kryptonite. ”
Laura frowned at the glowing green stone, then cautiously reached for it.
"Side Quest: Obtain the Cosmic Origin token, complete.
The completeness of the Spirit of Exploration is 7.62%, and the 'Body of the Sun' and 'Pupil of Good and Evil' have been enhanced. ”
Hearing the system's friendly voice, Laura looked at her surroundings, then took out her head armor from the space and put it on.
"Welcome back, Laura."
Rachel's tone seemed to be a little excited and impatient, and Laura smiled when she heard this, took out the two drones from the space and responded:
"It's nice to be back alive, Rachel. Now help me scout the neighborhood. ”
"Willing to help."
The two drones quickly lifted off and departed, and ten minutes later Rachel sent data:
"The survey has been completed, and there is no sign of people within ten kilometers of the vicinity.
According to the positioning, we are currently on an island 174 kilometers from the Japanese mainland. ”
Laura nodded.
"Rachel, let the two drones continue to be responsible for the vigilance and reconnaissance of the surrounding area, and display my data in real time later."
"Okay."
Laura, who received the answer, controlled the energy in her body to gradually rise, and the person also levitated.
"The body surface temperature of 3000 °C, 4200 °C, 5700 °C, 7700 °C has been stabilized, and the current limit is stable at 7700 degrees Celsius."
The temperature was already higher than the surface temperature of the sun, and the weeds on the ground instantly turned to fly ash, and a large amount of water vapor came out of the tall trees around it.
Seeing this, Laura hurriedly increased her control, retracted the energy near the surface of her body, and flew over an empty stream.
"Huh?"
She noticed that the energy near her body did not escape as quickly as she had before, but instead formed a shield-like thing around her.
"Rachel, do the math of this shield on my body."
Two seconds later, Laura looked at the data on the light curtain in a bit of surprise.
"The temperature is 3600 degrees Celsius, and without my control, it actually forms a self-circulation, which is expected to last for twenty hours? And it can be slowly absorbed by my body again? ”
She thought it was like a power bank with a shield.
Laura tried it, and found that this layer of energy could still be manipulated, so she gathered it near her right hand, formed a fiery ball of light, and then made a snap of her fingers.
"Boom!"
The fist-sized ball of light shot into the stream at an extremely fast speed, blasting out an orange-red hemisphere about three meters in diameter, which lasted for nearly three and a half minutes before disappearing.
Watching the stream fill the crater again, Laura pondered.
"It seems that this time the duration of the attack has been strengthened.
'Cosmic Origin Token', it's still green, and it seems that the Ancient One gave me something related to the Time Gem. ”
As if thinking of something, she shifted her gaze to a rock on the edge of the stream, her eyes flashing red.
"Sneer"
The heat line of sight scratched a mark of about one meter and two on the smooth surface of the stone, and after Laura withdrew his gaze, the mark still glowed red, and puffed up green smoke under the wash of the stream.
"Sure enough!"
After verifying what she thought, the excited Laura looked around, calculated the distance, and then ran the energy to come to a "red lotus explosion".
When the radius of the energy burst reached about two meters, she interrupted the output of energy in her body.
In the clearing, a ball of energy centered on Laura appeared, and the internal energy quickly circulated itself.
Feeling the warm energy that enveloped her, she was in a very happy mood.
Summoning the drone back to a nearby space, Laura compresses the energy balls that surround her body to the surface of her body, and then violently spins up the energy and flies into the air.
"Bang bang bang!"
Her speed broke through the sound barrier in an instant, bringing a sonic boom with it.
Laura adjusted several times in the air before she became familiar with the speed of the surge, and then flew in the direction of Tokyo.
With the energy shield on her body, she felt that the experience of flying was several notches higher than before, and she was in the sky over Tokyo in less than two and a half minutes.
Laura, who finally saw the city, realized that she was a little too ostentatious, she heard the air raid sirens coming from her, and also noticed that people as small as ants on the ground were moving in a panic.
At this time, the Japanese Ministry of Defense had already blown up the nest, and an object suspected of being a hypersonic missile suddenly appeared in the sky over Tokyo, and many people had even witnessed the "sudden appearance of a meteor in the sky".
A pro-American general immediately jumped out and shouted:
"Yaga! Look at it! The garbage system developed by the Ministry of Defense in conjunction with Waseda and the University of Tokyo was not discovered until someone else's missile flew over the country! What we need is the advanced and full-fledged Aegis system in the United States! ”
The Self-Defense Forces were also panicking, but the "hypersonic missile" that made everyone nervous suddenly disappeared from the radar and the sight of visual observers at the same time.
The Self-Defense Forces and the US military stationed in Japan sent reconnaissance units at the same time, but neither the reconnaissance planes in the air nor the search forces on the ground found anything.
The stunned officials did not come forward to express their stance for a long time, but some 'masters' jumped out to claim that this was a miracle displayed by "Aunt Amaterasu", and the people who ate melons also began to be suspicious.
However, the real 'culprit' has turned into a lone backpacker at this time, and walked out of the Mt. Fuji scenic area with a few travelers.
"Jingle Bell"
Laura's mobile phone that had been transferred from the space to her backpack rang, and when she took it out and picked it up, Professor Swan's voice rang:
"Laura? Finally got through to your phone! Where are you now? ”
"I'm sorry professor, I'm on the periphery of Mt. Fuji now, and I went into the mountain the day before yesterday to play, maybe the mobile phone signal is not very good."
The old professor breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and continued: "It's okay if you're okay, I haven't been able to contact you all these two times, I thought you and the little girl from the Zhitian family disappeared together." ”
Laura paused when she heard this.
"Mariko, she's missing?"
"Well, I heard that a vicious incident occurred at the memorial service of the old family owner of Shida the day before yesterday, and the Metropolitan Police Department called me to inquire about it."
"Professor, that, I want to take a few days off work with you to find Mariko."
"No problem, you can go, the exchange meeting can actually be said to be over at this stage. But be sure to be safe. ”
"Okay, thank you for your concern."
When Professor Swan hung up, Laura put away her phone and looked in the direction of the Ashita Manor.
"Uncle Wolf should have been caught by Ophelia after I was teleported away, but why did Mariko, who should have left the scene a long time ago, also disappeared?"
