"Can I see 'Misaka-san'?"

Misaka Mikoto was the name that the founder of the association had given to Himeya.

Kenar hesitated for a moment and shook her head.

"I'm sorry, the young lady isn't here right now."

Not here? This was a bit unexpected. Because every time he came to the association, Kaina was always here, so Himeya naturally thought that Miss Misaka was always here. But it seemed that was not the case.

Just then, Himeya suddenly heard an alarm.

It was not the alarm in the association, but the alarm from reality. The five senses immersion device that landed in the association did not completely cut off the user's senses from the outside world.

The night raid team assembled urgently. Himeya cut off the link and jumped off the bed.

In the operations room, the team members assembled within one minute.

"A strange beast, codenamed Levlia, appeared on Mt. Myoken in Yamanashi Prefecture. It is a plant-type strange beast with a huge corolla that has the ability to release flammable pollen. The pollen is highly toxic and will cause those who come into contact with it to carbonize quickly. At the same time, it will explode violently when exposed to high temperatures, posing a danger to the surrounding area."

Assistant Officer Oshima was as reliable as ever and informed all the enemy's data at the first possible moment.

But He Cang was a little confused.

"Assistant, you said that the pollen of alien beasts will explode when exposed to high temperatures. What is the approximate range of the explosion?"

"The impact area is expected to be within a radius of 40 kilometers."

Hekura opened the map. Myoken Mountain is a remote mountain range, but if it is within a range of 40 kilometers, it is enough to affect the city.

"In this case, how should we attack?"

"Captain Wakura, you already have the answer in your mind, don't you? Meta Field."

Yes, He Cang did think of that. But it was the Night Raid Team's responsibility to destroy the alien beasts. In the past, they had never relied on other people, or even other civilizations, for their battle plans.

Even though they knew after several contacts that the giant codenamed Nexus was indeed on the side of humans, in normal battles, they were still accustomed to relying on the power of the Night Raid Team to eliminate the enemy.

“It’s not a bad thing to rely on the strength of others when necessary.”

After hearing what Ling said, He Cang finally nodded. But there was still one most important problem that had not been solved.

"How can we guarantee that Nexus will show up?"

"He'll show up."

Although it was unknown why the assistant officer was so confident, the combat mission had already been issued, and the members of the Night Assault Team all received their equipment and came to the transmission elevator.

Of course Nexus will appear. Himeya put his hand on his chest, where the Evolution Truster was flickering, telling him the news of the appearance of the alien beast.

In the past, he had to rush to the scene himself, but now he has joined the Night Raid Team and has a Chester fighter to travel with.

He can also better choose the time to transform and join the battle.

Myokenyama is a famous sacred place in Japan. Like the Old Inunaki Tunnel and Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees, it is a place where folk legends often serve as the stage for ghost stories.

During the shogunate period, this was the place where executions were carried out, and even today, it is still mostly deserted.

A pickup truck carrying a load of garbage arrived at Myoken Mountain late at night. The uninhabited deep mountains are of course the best place to discard garbage.

If the amount of illegal garbage dumping reaches a certain level, the island country may face criminal penalties at the highest level.

"Did you hear anything?"

The pickup truck stopped and the two people in the back seat were about to get out to unload the garbage when they heard the driver say this.

"Hey, Xiaozhi, don't say that. It's not nice to tease people." Ajian was about to open the car door, but stopped in fright when he heard that.

This is a famous haunted place. I came here in the middle of the night, and I was already very nervous.

Although they were also committing crimes, littering was not considered a desperate act. If they were caught by the police, they would be fined at most. This truckload of scrap metal was not enough to warrant a prison sentence.

“No, there really is a sound.”

The three of them quieted down and turned off the pickup truck. In the silence, they did hear a strange sound, like the buzzing of a swarm of wasps, or the sound of a steam pipe leaking.

"It's getting foggy?"

Outside the car window, fog started to float up. It was light at first, but after a gust of wind, it began to blur my vision.

Chapter 530 Ultra Armor Test

The fog was not noticeable at first in the night, but gradually became thicker as the wind blew.

"How about...how about we just go?" The driver Xiaozhi started the stalled pickup truck.

The car's engine sound was a little unusual, but no one paid attention to these details at this time.

"coward!"

Xiaozhi can leave, he just went out for a trip. But Ajian can't. He brought this garbage, he has already received the money, he can't explain if he doesn't deal with it. If he is caught by the police, he will be fined a large sum of money.

It's really strange. It's just a little fog in the middle of the night. Isn't it common for mountains to have fog in the middle of the night? How can there be so many strange things? How can there really be ghosts in this world?

"Keita, get out of the car with me!"

"Well, Brother Jian, I think we should just forget it. It's so foggy, we can just find another place to throw it tomorrow."

"Why is there so much nonsense?"

Ah Jian had already opened the car door as he spoke. The fog outside the car was a bit thick and choking, and he sneezed twice. Apart from the fog, there was nothing around, and of course there was no possibility of any ghosts or monsters.

He was about to urge Qingtai to get off the bus, but he noticed something strange. He couldn't speak.

The air in his lungs pushed up against his vocal cords, causing burning pain, but he could not make a normal sound. He could only make a hoarse and strange roar, like the wail of the dead. He realized it belatedly and then he felt the pain all over his body.

Those who were exposed to the air felt their eyes burned by fire and soon they could not see anything, and their skin seemed to be licked by flames!

Qingtai, who originally wanted to get off the car, saw the changes in the scene with his own eyes with the help of the lights inside the car.

Ajian's eyeballs turned snow-white because his cornea and conjunctiva were all burned. Then the exposed skin turned charred black in a few seconds. A living human being turned into charcoal in just two or three breaths.

Even in the scariest movies, something like this happened right in front of him. Rather than being terrified, Keita felt the first sense of loss as if he were still in a dream. After all, no matter how hard he thought about it, it was impossible for such a thing to happen in reality.

I'm probably still having a nightmare.

However, the yellow smoke that floated in from the car door that was never closed made Qingtai feel pain in his throat the next second. The pain finally made him regain his sanity and he quickly closed the car door.

Ajian's hand was originally hanging on the car door. The charred arm broke directly due to the action of closing the door. The part stuck inside fell into the car and scattered into carbon slag.

Keita and Xiaozhi wanted to scream, but they found that their throats were almost unable to make any sound.

"Hurry, drive! Run!" Qingtai roared with the last sound he could make.

Xiaozhi had already stepped on the accelerator, and the whole car suddenly reversed backwards. Neither of them cared to look at the road. The mountain road was very narrow, only enough for two cars to drive side by side. The pickup truck almost fell backwards all the way down the cliff. Ten years of driving experience allowed Xiaozhi to retain some instincts. When the rear of the car was stopped by the guardrail, he switched the gear back to forward, turned the steering wheel sharply, and sped back to the mountain road they came from.

But the engine sound is weird.

The air that was supposed to be taken in turned into yellow mist powder, causing the cylinder to explode abnormally. The pickup truck only moved forward for more than a hundred meters before the engine made a terrible whine and exploded.

It took Xiaozhi a few seconds to realize what had happened. The temperature inside the car suddenly rose and the whole car caught fire!

It's over, it's over! It's over!

Either wait in the car and be burned to death, or get out of the car and turn into charcoal like Ah Jian. Both choices lead to the same result.

Perhaps his senses were particularly sharp when he was dying, Qingtai suddenly heard a strange sound, as if a flying vehicle was flying rapidly through the air.

That was not an illusion. An aerial missile landed and exploded at the spot where the yellow smoke was thickest.

There was no flame in the explosion. The assistant officer had already told them that this alien beast could not be detonated casually, otherwise the surrounding dozens of kilometers would be severely affected.

So this is a cryogenic solidification bomb.

The effect was immediate, and the yellow mist that was originally diffused was suppressed in an instant. From the center of the explosion came the roar of the monster, like a prehistoric beast.

Xiaozhi and Keita saw two people in strange combat uniforms running towards them, wearing fully enclosed tactical helmets and carrying unfamiliar weapons, as if they had run out of a movie.

At their signal, Xiaozhi and Qingtai chose to escape from the burning car. It was too bad to be cremated directly in the car. Although it was equally dangerous outside, the two of them had no better choice now.

Fortunately, thanks to the low-temperature solidification bomb, the surrounding yellow mist dissipated a lot.

"This is Gumen, CIC, we have found two unrelated survivors at the scene. Protective measures are being implemented."

"Received. ABWD has been notified to contain the monster. The biochemical treatment team will arrive in five minutes. Night attack team, please continue to use solidification bombs to suppress the alien beast."

They were waiting, and what they were waiting for was of course Nexus.

That is a big bomb. Only in the Meta field can we destroy the monster with confidence.

Himeya Jun, who was in the same group with Komon, quietly took a few steps back, letting the darkness cover his body. The Evolution Truster he took out from the pocket of the Night Raid uniform was flickering.

Of course Nexus would show up. He would fight whenever he was needed.

The Night Raid Team's medical technology was very good, and the injuries from the last battle were healed in a short time. However, Ji Yajun felt that there was more to it than that, and the reason for his recovery was not only the Night Raid Team's medical technology.

Anyway, he is in his prime now.

Himeya has already taken out the transformation device. As long as he waves it towards the sky, Nexus will appear on the earth.

At this time, the assistant officer's voice came from the communicator.

"Combat operations canceled."

"Operation canceled?" Captain Hecang repeated in confusion.

"The alien beast's vibration wave has disappeared. It escaped."

Himeya Jun lowered his head, and sure enough, his Evolution Trustee also stopped flashing and fell silent.

The night raiders did not give up, and several Chester fighters circled in the sky for a long time, and even the slightest mist had disappeared. They had to admit that the alien beast had really escaped.

"How could it be? Could it be that the alien beast felt threatened?"

But where does it get such high intelligence? Ji Yajun walked to the place where the alien beast disappeared before, and there was only a deep pit with a diameter of three or four meters on the ground. The alien beast may have hidden underground, or somewhere else.

He thought of the dark giant, Faust, and wondered if there was any connection between them.

"The alien beast Lavria is a plant-type alien beast. When in a dormant state, it will take on the form of an ordinary plant."

Ling also reminded in the communicator.

In this desolate mountain, with lush vegetation, it was impossible to find a special plant. So after two hours of fruitless searching, the night raid team had to withdraw and return to the base. In vain.

In the following days, the area around Myoken Mountain was blocked off due to landslides.

Three ordinary people encountered the alien beast, one died and two were injured. The injured two had a certain degree of burns on their eyes, vocal cords, and oral mucosa. After initial treatment, they will be greeted by the MP team who will modify their memories.

"Is it really a good thing to have my memory modified like this?"
