Chapter 35: It's Sora, At Least I Can Fight
Chapter 35: It's Sora, At Least I Can Fight
……
1:44pm.
Shinagawa District.
The people in the area where Gurongi's location has been temporarily confirmed have been evacuated, but this is a relatively remote suburb and there are not many people here.
The Metropolitan Police Department's vehicles stopped silently around a warehouse. While waiting for the combat equipment to be delivered, the police team, who were on high alert, observed the situation in the warehouse ahead with binoculars.
Kaoru Ichijo arrived at the scene together with the scientific police officer Ken who was transporting special protective clothing, and Officer Sugita who was transporting gas bombs.
Once everything is ready, the Joint Investigation Department will officially launch a siege on Gurongi.
And outside this encirclement.
Kawahara and Yusuke Godai were parked some distance away on their motorcycles.
Godai Yusuke looked over there and said, "It looks amazing. There are police dogs that are not afraid of the breath of unconfirmed life forms..."
The ability to find the gathering place of unidentified life forms this time was mainly due to the trained police dogs.
However, most police dogs would instinctively resist if they were close to Gurongi's scent, making it impossible to train them. In the end, only one police dog out of the thirty-one officers was successfully trained.
Kawahara nodded and said, "After all, animals have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Those Gurongi are a combination of humans and beasts."
Yusuke Godai turned his head to look at him, only to see Kawahara staring straight in the direction of the warehouse with indescribable emotions in his eyes.
"Mr. Kawahara, did you feel it too?" said Yusuke Godai.
"Yes, there it is."
Kawahara's lips curled up into a smile.
If he hadn't had to wait for the Metropolitan Police Department to take action, he might have already gone there.
But since he has already agreed to cooperate, Kawahara will naturally not do anything unnecessary before the Metropolitan Police Department has "failed".
Anyway, it has been found.
"Is No. 0 here too?" Yusuke Godai suddenly asked.
"..."
Kawahara narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this. He paused for a moment before shaking his head: "No, he's not here."
If Daguba was here, he would have already gone up. Why would he wait for the Metropolitan Police Department to slowly encircle and suppress the small monsters? He could have just defeated the final boss first.
After hearing this, Yusuke Godai stopped talking.
Soon, there were sounds of action coming from the police team, and everyone was on high alert, holding up their police guns and guarding all sides of the warehouse.
The gas bombs developed based on the factory gas that the Locust Gurongi hated were thrown into the warehouse.
That kind of gas is naturally not pure factory gas, but a toxic gas that has been modified by scientific and police research.
Therefore, special protective clothing is also needed for protection.
It takes time for the toxicity to dissipate.
During this time, the police team stationed in other parts of the warehouse watched the entrances and exits to prevent the unidentified life forms from escaping from the other side.
However, there was no movement inside for a long time.
Officer Sugita looked at the time and said, "It should be about time."
Hearing this, Kaoru Ichijo glanced at the positions of Kawahara and Yusuke Godai, then nodded to Officer Sugita. The moment the sliding door of the warehouse was opened, the two of them rushed to the front!
However, there was no one inside.
Not far from the encirclement.
Kawahara, who had been watching over there, smiled slightly, then got on the motorcycle and put on his helmet.
"Mr. Kawahara?!"
Yusuke Godai looked at him in doubt.
Kawahara then said, "There's a Gurongi behind the small hill in the southeast. If you hurry up, you might be able to catch it. Remember to use the Titan form."
But after saying this, he stepped on the ignition pedal, turned the handlebars, and sped away in the completely opposite direction.
"Eh? Mr. Kawahara——"
Yusuke Godai was a little worried about his actions, but remembering what he just said, he couldn't help but look towards the southeast of the warehouse.
There is also a Gurongi here...
Although it is said that Gurongi generally follow the rules of the game, if they are really surrounded and attacked by humans, there is no guarantee that they will not become angry and fight back to hunt.
Thinking of this, Yusuke Godai quickly ran over there.
……
The police team failed to find any trace of "unconfirmed life forms" in the warehouse, but some strange things left in the warehouse did carry an absurd and wild beast atmosphere.
The location was probably right.
Just couldn't catch anyone.
At this time, another police officer discovered an underground ventilation system deep in the factory.
"Did he escape from here?" Officer Sugita looked around the dark and spacious pipe.
Xun Ichijo frowned, not knowing what the situation was outside. At this moment, the voice of the police dog trainer suddenly came from the earphone.
——［“Shenmen suddenly ran out, as if he smelled the scent of those guys!”］
Shenmen is the police dog that can track Gurongi. If this is the case, they may still have a chance to give chase!
Several people immediately went there to meet up.
When Xun Ichijo came outside the factory, he suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the two men, but one of the motorcycles was nowhere to be seen.
The next moment, there was a violent commotion and shrill dog barking coming from the back of the factory.
"It's No. 4 and the unconfirmed life form!"
The police dog trainer's shouting also came from there.
Xun Ichijo ran over quickly and saw the red Souga fighting with a bronze-colored monster with a hard horn on his forehead.
There is no doubt that this Kuuga is Yusuke Godai.
So, what about the other person?
……
……
1:51pm.
Of course, the Gurongis have more than one gathering place.
They like dark, damp, chaotic and absurd places, and their gathering places range from aquariums to abandoned factories and even temporary underground drainage pipes.
Several Gurongi who participated in the game walked towards the next gathering place in a bad mood.
But right now.
The woman walking in front suddenly stopped, looked forward with an emotionless face, her eyes flowing in the darkness.
The several human-form Gurongi following behind her also stopped immediately, and then became alert as if they sensed something.
"Lindo?"
A pale-faced male Gurongi, wrapped in a long black windbreaker and wearing a tall hat, squinted his eyes and immediately became excited: "Let me do it! Let me kill him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped aside by the woman standing beside him.
"Why?!"
The male Gurongi covered his face and stared at the woman in annoyance and confusion.
Baluba looked indifferent without even looking at him. She just stared at the people in front of her and gestured to the several Gurongis behind her.
"Leave quickly." She said lightly.
"..."
Although the several Mei Group Gurongi behind her didn't understand, they obeyed her instructions. After looking at the bat Gurongi on the ground with ridicule, they turned around and walked in the other direction of the underground passage.
But just when they were about to leave.
The man who was blocking the way in the darkness spoke.
"Not so good?"
It was a light voice: "I waited here on purpose, of course not to let you leave from other places again."
Golden lightning flashed in the dark passage, outlining the man's face, with a cold smile on his clear face.
And when the golden lightning struck, countless green vines spread out from Baluba's hands, like wildly growing vegetation, intertwining and entwining in the pipe, densely blocking the passage between the two.
"go!"
Then Baluba turned and left without hesitation.
Seeing this, another female Gurongi who followed her looked at the pipe blocked by vines with interest.
"Is it Kuuga?"
As the strongest member of the Mei Group, Mantis Gurongi——Galima is very interested in defeating Sora.
Baluba glanced at her and said, "I'm afraid not."
——I’m pretty good at this.
——At least that one can fight.
Several people turned around and walked to the other side, and the bat Gurongi who fell to the ground had to quickly get up and follow them.
But at this moment, lightning flashed in the gaps between the vines behind them.
Baluba, who was walking in front, paused as if she had sensed something, and the next moment, the vine barrier behind her exploded!
"boom!"
sizzle...
Powerful and oppressive golden electric light filled the entire passage.
