Even their souls blend together.

Nan Xizi knew that there would never be another person who could communicate with her as well as Beidou.

"Look, all the lights in the world are on, like a glass paradise. My gift for you is under the sycamore tree. You have to guess three times before you can take it home."

Nan Xizi was a little surprised when Ting Ling suddenly started singing.

"What song is this?"

"Telepathy"

"what?"

"I always think it suits you and Beidou brother very well."

This should be a song from an old Chinese cartoon, probably from the 1990s. It's so old that Ling has never seen it, but she heard this song because it was recommended by a music software and then fell in love with it.

"Anyway," Nan Xizi always felt that continuing this topic would make her uncomfortable. Some private things are better kept in heart, so she changed the subject.

"I don't know why the monster can absorb moonlight and become stronger, but as long as it is not exposed to the moonlight, it will be fine."

"What are you going to do, hide the moon?"

Nan Xizi shook her head. "I can't do such a thing. The moonlight shines on the earth and treats everyone equally. I can't exclude monsters."

The moon is there, and even Nan Xizi cannot change the moon's orbit at will.

But Gaia can.

Ling knew it, of course, although she didn't like to change the laws of nature. But in order to stop the monsters from wreaking havoc, it was okay to make some concessions occasionally.

As she was thinking this, dark clouds began to float in the distant sky.

There is nothing to do, and there is no need to do anything. Just having this idea is enough.

Soon, the moon in the sky was blocked by dark clouds. The clouds became thicker and thicker, and there was even thunder, indicating that it was going to rain.

"Why is the weather suddenly so gloomy and thundering? It's time to put away the clothes!"

After the parachute landed and was unpacked, Nanyuan muttered in surprise.

Araki also found it strange that the place where he landed was very close to Nanyuan, and then he found Kitajima a few minutes later.

Kotaro hasn't been found yet, but Kotaro is a lucky guy. This happens every time, so Araki is not very worried.

"HQ, this is Araki. Shouldn't the weather in Tokyo be sunny today? Check what's going on with this dark cloud."

Araki was worried that this was another conspiracy by monsters or aliens.

Moriyama's voice soon came from the communicator.

"Deputy Captain, I have confirmed with the Meteorological Bureau that these dark clouds are a natural phenomenon and a normal change in the clouds. Although the Meteorological Bureau did not predict the cumulus clouds before, weather forecasts are not 100% accurate. The Meteorological Bureau said that no external interference factors were found in the relevant meteorological changes."

So this is really a natural phenomenon?

How strange.

"Look, deputy captain, the horns on the monster's head are no longer glowing. It looks very strange, not as lively as before!"

Not only was it not full of energy, it looked sickly, as if its spine had been removed.

"I understand!" Bei Dao exclaimed, "The monster's energy source is moonlight, and now the dark clouds have blocked the moonlight, so the monster has no energy!"

Does King Airey use moonlight as energy?

This was not reflected in the Ultra Guard's records in the past. Perhaps this monster had mutated. In any case, this dark cloud came at the perfect time!

"It is God's will that this official should die, not the fault of war!"

"What are you talking about, Nanyuan, so literary? Attack the monster while it's weak! And what about Kotaro? Why is that guy gone again?"

Although the Sky Whale was gone, the ZAT gun was still very powerful, and the monster no longer had the will to continue fighting. It squatted down and began to dig in the soil.

"Oh no, that monster is trying to escape!"

King Ailei dug the ground very quickly, and in a blink of an eye he had dug a tunnel big enough for him to enter, but at this moment, his entire body flew out violently.

When I say 'flying', it's more like a pedestrian being hit by a car.

With a weight of more than 10,000 tons, the car certainly couldn't fly away. With a strange roar, a rabbit jumped out from the ground.

A giant rabbit monster!

"This is……"

"Ah! It's the Full Moon Ultra Beast Lunatics!"

There was no need to check the past battle records this time, Araki recognized it at a glance. It was one of the few super beasts that was friendly to humans. It was said to be the guardian of the underground people. It helped humans fight monsters many times.

"I heard that it was transformed from the white rabbit of Inaba!" Nanyuan said the rumor he heard from somewhere, "It's the rabbit on the moon in the legend!"

Araki did not refute because he had also heard such rumors.

After Lunaticus came to the ground, he looked up at the sky and was a little disappointed that there was no full moon.

"… Lingye, it's you after all."

Kotaro, who was being worried about by Araki, appeared behind Reiya. He wanted to call her "Gaia" but changed his mind.

The only thing that can change the weather without any trace of human intervention is the planet itself.

But soon, Kotaro's attention was attracted by another figure next to him.

It was the 'Ace' from before, wearing a steel suit that was very similar to Ace's. But to his surprise, when he took off his helmet and revealed his face, he found out that it was actually a woman.

If you only look at her face, she is a gentle and graceful young girl.

It should be out of tune with the armor on his body, but for some reason it feels quite harmonious.

"Nice to meet you, Kotaro-kun. I'm Minami Yuko."

"Nan Xizi?"

This name sounded familiar to Taylor, and then he thought of it.

"Minami Xizi, member of the TAC team? You are not my brother's..."

"Yes, I was once Ace's human form."

What do you mean by 'once'? Kotaro knows that Ace still talks about her all the time. Well, actually it was Beidou, but since Beidou and Ace are one body, there is no difference.

No wonder wearing this armor made him feel like he had a brother. After all, she was once Ace.

So how should he address the other party?

Sister, or...

sister in law?

Chapter 430: Shadow of the Monster Cemetery

Kotaro didn't have to worry about the address for too long.

Lunaticus was already fighting with King Aire. This super beast, which had once caused Ace to suffer a hard battle underground, had become much lazier since being "pacified".

Not surprising.

In the past, it fought against Ace desperately for its own life. Now it is just a "worker".

Just go to work, why bother putting in the effort?

The super beast and the monster sometimes hugged each other, and sometimes kicked and stomped each other.

But compared to Lunaticus, King Aire was even worse. Without the moonlight, he became weak. He had no intention of fighting at all and only wanted to escape.

If Lunaticus had not been able to dig deeper than it and had not been pulled out time and time again, it would have already dug its way out.

After being hit twice by Lunaticus' tail and attacked by its creepy eyeballs and being exploded several times, it had nowhere to escape and became a trapped beast.

The trapped beast was fighting, which also meant there was no way out, and King Aire became irritable again. Seeing Lunaticus pulling its tail again, its tail released a strong electric current.

That’s half a million volts!

Five times as many as Pikachu.

This made Lunaticus's loose hair stand up, fluffy like a hedgehog!

It was not seriously injured, just startled. On the other hand, King Ailei had almost exhausted all his strength after this attack and became extremely weak.

But even so, it was Lunaticus who was scared away.

"That guy is as timid as a rabbit!"

If it had half the bravery it had when fighting Ace, it should have defeated King Aire without the moonlight to sustain its life.

"It's a rabbit." Nan Xizi smiled, "Leave it to me from now on. I haven't been to the battlefield for a long time, and I always feel a little nostalgic."

It’s not that I miss the fighting, but I miss the feeling of relying on and supporting each other with my comrades.

The TAC team has been disbanded, but after Captain Ryu, Noriko, Konno and the others return to the Defense Force, they will surely continue to fight for the future of humanity in their own posts, right?

Putting on the Ace armor, it feels like going back to that time.

Nan Xizi took a step forward, pushed the ground with her right leg, and her whole body left the ground and jumped high.

Thrusters at the joints of her armor sprayed flames, propelling her body and allowing her to glide through the air like a swift.

It must be said that this armor itself is somewhat feminine, perhaps it was made for Lingye. When worn on Minami Yuko, it outlines the curves of her body.

Just like a ballerina.

She jumped lightly to King Ailei's knees, and using the force to push off, her body continued to move upwards.

To the Moonlight King Ai Lei, who was more than fifty meters tall, Nan Xizi was like a flea, so much so that he didn't take her seriously at first.

But this "flea" is deadly!

High energy was released from the elbows of Ace's armor, forming a green blade of light.

By the time King Ailei realized the danger, it was already too late.

It tried to wrap its tail around the opponent, releasing electricity. The ultra-high voltage of 500,000 volts released the smell of ozone in the air, but it was still not enough to penetrate Ace's armor.

At the same time, a green light knife came and cut off the two horns on the monster's head.

A pair of crescent-shaped tentacles fell into the dust, and the monster squeaked in pain, and foam continued to secrete from the wound. A large amount of foam grew, and soon, the monster's huge body melted into foam like a slug sprinkled with salt and disappeared.

Although I knew that the monster's weakness was probably related to the tentacles on its head, it was still surprising that it died so easily.
