Suddenly, the alien beast's body flashed red, and an extremely high-temperature energy bomb hit Nexus at a close range. This was an ability that Pedron had never demonstrated in the past, so the defenseless Nexus was hit hard, and his whole body was thrown far away.
Ultraman fell heavily to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
Nexus's energy light did not flicker, and remained a healthy blue. But Himeya Jun's physical strength was too much.
The Night Raid Team had just finished a 10-kilometer run with a load, and they had already dragged their exhausted bodies here. The battle at this moment had squeezed their physical strength to the limit.
In the Meta Realm, unknown ruins stood among the sand dunes for eternity. Nexus grabbed a handful of sand and gravel and stood up tenaciously.
"Nexus, trap the alien beast!"
He heard the familiar voice and nodded.
He stacked his hands, letting the energy gather in his palms. The alien beast used the same trick again, releasing a fireball at Nexus.
The fireball did hit him, but Nexus only snorted softly without showing any abnormality. The energy between his hands was released, forming a golden tornado.
Hurricane Nexus!
This was not a skill that hurt the enemy, but a skill that restricted the enemy's movements. The storm formed by the golden energy bound Pedron tightly, making him unable to move at all.
"Now, million cannon fire!"
The chariot was composed of three Chester aircraft. Its energy was overclocked by a special instrument, and its special gun barrel released a scorching assault ray. The power of this attack completely penetrated the alien beast Pedron.
It's not over yet. Even if only a few cells survive, the alien beast will divide and reproduce again. High-energy energy flows overlapped between Nexus's elbows, and then crossed in an L shape.
Cascading light·storm!
This was the battle a few days ago. Nexus was unable to fully display his skills, allowing the alien monster to escape.
But this time, the cascading light storm fully demonstrated all its power.
The blue-white light was so intense that it was impossible to look directly at it. The high-energy rays were so powerful that the Chester fighter's detectors could not read them. They were comparable to the extremely high temperatures inside a star.
Even more powerful than temperature is its ability to kill all living things at the cellular level.
When Lingye first received the Nexus Medal, she thought that he hated all life. But the truth is, this power also exists for protection. Choosing to kill in order to protect, Nexus also loves all living things on earth.
In the storm, every cell of the alien beast was wiped out and annihilated.
This time, Pedron was indeed completely wiped out, without any trace left.
The space interference began to fade, the Meta Field was lifted, and the Night Raid Team returned to normal space. At the same time, the giant named Nexus disappeared.
It seems like a dream.
"What's wrong, He Cang? You look distracted."
On the way back to the base, Goroki returned to the plane.
In the previous battle, he and Komon wore Ultra Armor and did not enter the Meta Realm. Although he did not see it, he more or less guessed the reason why Kazukura was silent at this time.
"Still thinking about that giant?"
The Night Raid Team was formed because of the alien beasts. Ever since the alien beasts appeared on Earth, humans have been fighting against them for a long time. There has never been a savior.
So now a giant suddenly appears, a hero fighting for humanity, and Kazukura finds it difficult to adapt.
"Goroki, do you think that giant has anything to do with the 'Association'?"
Being asked this question so suddenly, Goromu was also stunned.
"Do you suspect that Nexus is also a member of the society?"
It didn't matter whether Nexus was a member of the Society or not. What mattered to Hekura was that humans knew nothing about the Society, and no matter how incredible what they saw was, it was still just the tip of the iceberg that the organization had accidentally revealed.
Even if they really just want to destroy the alien beasts, humans can never truly trust things they don't understand.
The same concerns shared by Hekura also exist among TLT’s top management.
This is not the first time a secret meeting has been held for this purpose.
In the meeting room of the Freedom Fortress, the three chiefs Togo, Koyanagi and Soma sat at the chairman's table, with Assistant Officer Oshima sitting next to them.
Mizoroki was sitting at the podium opposite to be questioned, and next to him was Captain Watakura.
"Vice Captain Goroki, do you have anything to add regarding the association recently?"
The fact that Goroki was a member of the association was no secret among the TLT's top brass, and Goroki was the best way to investigate the association. Such consultation meetings were held regularly almost every week.
"Yes, the association has recently relaxed the exchange of materials for V7 and V9 missiles. They think it may be related to the frequent appearance of large alien beasts. They hope that our TLT will have the ability to fight against alien beasts."
"We already know all this." Dongxiang interrupted him, "What we want to ask is, is the giant that appeared related to the association?"
The question that Captain Kazukura had asked not long ago was indeed what the TLT top brass was concerned about. Mizoroki was not surprised.
"I don't know. I don't know more about that giant than everyone else. At least I have never seen or heard of him in the association through the five senses immersion system."
The three people from Dongxiang were a little disappointed.
"So what about the founder of the association, the one who usually contacts Kaina, and the one called 'Miss', have you discovered anything about their identities recently?"
"As far as I know, although Miss 'Kainal' often interacts with members of the association, no one has ever seen her offline, so no one can tell whether her name and image are fictitious. There are even rumors that she is an artificial intelligence."
Such rumors have existed for a long time. After all, Miss Kainar is online 24 hours a day. Whether it is to assign tasks or exchange items, she can be found at the central tree house of the association at any time, as if she does not need to rest.
It's hard to imagine humans being able to do this.
"Although that 'young lady' rarely shows up, it can be confirmed that she really exists. Because as long as you exchange for treatment services in the association, the 'young lady' will soon appear offline."
"She is a high school girl. She always appears wearing the school uniform of a private high school. However, according to our investigation, we have not found any similar high school uniforms in the whole country. It must be a custom-made one."
"What's the point of customizing a uniform for a non-existent high school?"
This question Goroumu couldn't answer.
That's true. If you don't want to reveal your identity, you can wear any nondescript clothing.
It is really meaningless to wear a school uniform which does not belong to any school.
"Assistant Officer Oshima, do you have anything to add?"
Ling also thought about it.
"That school uniform is another matter. Vice Captain Gorogi, you said that for those who redeem the treatment service, the 'young lady' will appear offline to provide treatment. So have you redeemed it?"
"Or you can exchange it once in the Free Fortress. If she shows up here, I think we can have a good chat."
"Of course, the risks involved need to be assessed. If she really shows up in the Fortress of Liberty, will it pose a security risk?"
Ling also stood in a third-party position and spoke seriously as a TLT assistant.
This is indeed a solution.
However, as Oshima said, if the other party really appears in the Free Fortress, the risks involved cannot be ignored.
Chapter 518 Assistant Officer, Please Investigate the Association
Humans are always wary of things that are beyond their control, regardless of whether the other party is well-intentioned or not.
"Assistant Oshima, even in the future you saw, there is no information about the association?"
It would be wonderful if we could get answers to everything from the "future".
"Future Vision is not omnipotent. I can't see these. I can see alien beasts that harm humans, but I haven't seen any conflicts between the association and humans."
Hearing Ling say this, Dongxiang and the others felt a little disappointed, but they also understood. If there really was someone who was omniscient and omnipotent, she would be the one to be wary of.
The three top decision makers, Togo, Koyanagi and Soma, whispered to each other and quickly reached a consensus.
"Then let's do this. According to what Assistant Officer Oshima said, Mizoroki, you will redeem the treatment service once. The specific time and place of the treatment will be notified later."
Goroki nodded in agreement.
Dongxiang stared at him, the man who was the vice-captain of the night attack team. He remembered that Goroki had been in the army for many years and was an elite talent selected from the army.
Whether in terms of his achievements or the character he displays in daily life, he can be said to be an outstanding talent.
"As a bridge between our TLT and the association, Mizoroki, you have a great responsibility. I hope you can stick to your beliefs."
"Yes, I understand." Goromu said solemnly.
After he said this, he was informed that the consultation meeting was over, and he left the meeting room together with Captain Hekura.
This is how he answered the higher-ups, but faith? He didn't have any faith at all. He was just simply afraid of death.
I don't want to die, I want to live no matter what.
He joined the Night Raid Team because he didn't want to die in vain after learning about the existence of the alien beasts.
He joined the association also to become stronger and avoid being killed by alien beasts.
As for revealing the secrets of his own association members to TLT, this way he can have a higher value and will not be easily sacrificed.
He is not as noble as others think, he is just afraid of death. It is ridiculous to describe him with the word "belief".
"Oshima, what do you think?"
Now only the three officers and Reiya were left in the conference room.
"Vice-Captain Mizoroki is a very brave man."
"That's not what we're talking about." Togo waved his hand. Of course he knew that Goroki was brave. He was the vice-captain of their night raid team. How could he fight against the alien beasts if he wasn't brave?
"I mean, will the investigation into the association and the identity of the 'young lady' be successful, or will it anger the other party?"
Ling also knew that Chief Togo wanted her to formulate an action plan on how to conduct the investigation.
How can we investigate the young lady who founded the association? She seems very mysterious.
Ling also put herself in the shoes of the TLT assistant officer and thought about it.
"In any case, it would be bad if we showed the threat of force, wouldn't it? We might even force the other party to the opposite side."
"Of course, that's the worst option!" Dongxiang affirmed.
From the technology displayed by the other party, it is clear that the association's technological level is far superior to TLT.
The alien beasts are already causing people a lot of trouble, and it is really not rational to make enemies with the society again.
Of course, necessary precautions are still necessary.
"Put three Chrome Chesters on standby and deploy them around. Investigating the Society is not something that only our Third Base can do. We can ask the surrounding bases to cooperate and transfer some military forces..."
Ling also listened to the three of them discussing how to set up the scene and how to investigate the plan of the "young lady".
"Finally, Assistant Officer, I hope you can serve as the representative in the negotiations with the other party when the time comes."
