If it weren't for its ugly and terrifying appearance, the man and woman standing quietly in front of the clay statue would have a certain sense of beauty, like lovers swearing an oath before God.
Gu Men threw himself into Li Zi's arms, snuggled up to her, and felt the peace and tranquility that he had not felt for a long time.
If you are too tired from living, facing death is really not a terrible thing. Death means eternal relief, and you don't have to bear any responsibilities anymore.
People do have the instinct to survive, as do all living things. But people also have the instinct to seek destruction.
Sometimes, when we know that something will hurt ourselves and is not allowed to be done, we cannot control our rationality.
Death is not romantic, but it is unavoidable, it is just a fact. Then everything will end, and the souls returning to Gaia will merge with each other, and even if there is reincarnation, they will no longer be themselves.
"Come back, Gumen! If you want to die, fifty years from now, a hundred years from now, you can't escape, death will inevitably come. But not now."
Unlike the previous voice of Himeya Jun, this time the voice directly resounded through Komon's soul, speaking to his soul.
Even Faust's darkness cannot block it.
So Gu Men did hear it.
He was trapped in the empty darkness, with nothing around him except Lizi. But now there was another person, a high school student in uniform.
"Ms. Misaka?"
Gu Men knew that it was the owner of the "Association". Why was she here?
Unexpectedly, someone would intrude into her territory. Lizi wanted to attack, but hesitated after looking at the other party.
She is afraid.
As the dark giant 'Faust', I felt fear for that girl for no reason. I even chose to keep my mouth shut.
"Gumen, you can choose to escape. If it is too painful, you can also choose to die. This is indeed your right."
People cannot decide whether they are born, but they do have the right to decide whether they are dead when they can no longer bear it.
A right that cannot be taken away even by law.
"But that requires your sincere choice, not a decision forced upon you after being deceived and bewitched by the darkness. So, Gu Men, do you really want to abandon everything and embrace death?"
Saita Riko and Oshima Reiya stood on either side of the lonely gate. On one side was the inky darkness, and on the other side, the dark space was replaced by light.
Make your choice based on your heart without any interference.
"Ms. Misaka, you can heal all injuries, can you save Riko?" Komon asked hopefully, he longed for a miracle to happen.
But the miracle did not happen.
"That's Faust, not Saida Riko. He died a year ago. Even I can't do anything about it."
Hope was shattered, although Gu Men actually knew long ago that the reason a miracle is called a miracle is because the probability of it happening is very low.
It has been a long time since I felt such a peaceful, relaxed and unburdened feeling in the darkness. In fact, I can't remember if I have ever enjoyed such a comfortable feeling. I don't have to think about anything and can easily sink into it.
"Misaka, will it cause trouble for everyone if I die?"
Ling didn't expect him to ask that.
Of course, she hoped that Gu Men would choose to continue living. She didn't want to see death, and hoped that everyone could live, so that her efforts would be meaningful.
Gu Men was indeed needed by everyone, and this made him feel better.
"Lizi, you said before that even if things don't go well at work, it's always right to protect others, and you'll cheer me on. Is this 'Come on, Crake-kun' you gave me fake?"
Komon pulled a small trinket out of his pocket. It was a gift that Lizi had made for him.
"This is not something Faust gave me. It was made by you, Lizi, and given to me, right? You said that we should always be firm in what we believe in. So I believe that the time we spent together was not all false. The things you said to me must not all be false either."
Lizi didn't say anything, nor did she make any movements. She just looked at him expressionlessly.
"I like you, Lizi. I always have. So I will do my best as Lizi said. Even if it hurts, because we made an agreement."
Himeya Jun put on the Taro armor and came to meet up with Goroki.
"Where's Saijo?"
Goroki also had two armored briefcases in his hands.
The Specium particles that the assistant officer mentioned have a special killing effect on alien beast cells are a skill of Saijo's first generation armor.
Although the saber of his Seven Armor and the flame of Taro Armor have equally considerable damage, they may not necessarily achieve the same effect.
"She's still on her way."
The zoo was actually more than 20 kilometers away from here. Faust and Komon crossed the space, and Himeya Jun also had the skills to hurry. Only Nishijo Nagi went to get the patrol car they came in and drove the car to rush here. It would probably take more than ten minutes.
"We can't wait any longer. I'm going to meet up with Saijo and give her the armor. You stay here to control the situation and try not to attack before we come back."
The alien beast was still motionless like a sculpture, and Goroki decided to go find Saijo first. They had a communicator and could locate each other in real time. The speed of the Ultra Armor was always much faster than that of an ordinary car.
"I will be back with Saijo in five minutes. Don't provoke the alien beast unless it's absolutely necessary."
Himeya nodded.
He also learned the three methods told by the assistant officer to destroy this alien beast.
Nuclear Bomb, Nexus's Layered Storm, Specium Ray
Leaving aside the nuclear bomb, he could certainly transform into Nexus and use Layered Storm directly, but he remembered what Misaka said. Even if he was Ultraman, it didn't mean he had to take on everything. Only when humans had tried their best and still couldn't do anything, would Ultraman appear.
Himeya didn't know if this was correct, after all, he had never seen any other Ultraman except Nexus. But he felt the same way.
Fighting against alien beasts is a human's job, and he is just a member of the human race.
Himeya didn't want to alarm the alien beast, but surprisingly, the alien beast moved not long after Goroki left.
The huge monster was no longer a stone sculpture. It roared and raised its foot. Instead of stepping on Gu Men, it deliberately avoided him and stepped towards Himeya. At the same time, its arms released black and red light bullets into the sky.
"avoid!"
The light bullet grazed the Eagle's fuselage and flew into the air.
"Keep your distance!"
The Eagle was too big, and even though it was highly maneuverable, it was still an easy target.
Its strength lies in its almost endless ammunition depot, but it can only carry six people at 210 meters, and the remaining space is for weapons. However, if it does not fight back, it can also be easily destroyed.
"Captain, do you want to attack?"
"Wait a little longer, until Northfield is farther away from the Lonely Gate."
That guy! He is not a qualified member of the night raid team at all, he is just causing trouble! After this battle is over, he must be expelled from the night raid team A group and start with the miscellaneous training of group B and group C!
This was the thought that popped up in Hekura's mind at the moment, but he was not sure whether he would remember it after the battle was over.
Ji Yajun flew back, and the alien beast took three or five steps to cover more than a hundred meters and was already approaching him.
Northfield stretched out a claw bigger than an excavator and swung it at Himeya, so fast that he didn't have time to dodge. The fireball released by the Taro armor hit the claw hard, and the explosion bought less than half a second of space. Himeya Jun's body was also pushed away by the air wave of the fireball explosion, thus avoiding the claw of the alien beast.
The hastily fired fireball did not cause any harm to Northfield. Its claws continued to scratch down, without touching Ji Yajun, and scratched a deep groove several meters deep on the ground.
The claws were sharp enough to cut through the earth, no matter if it was steel or rock. If it was a human body, it would probably be crushed into powder.
Ji Ya did not fall to the ground. With the help of the armor-assisted power system, he briefly rose a little higher until he was level with the monster's head. He clasped his hands together and put his right fist against his left palm.
"Strim Ray!"
The assistant officer said that the strongest regenerative cells of the alien beast are in the mouth.
This information was correct, and the colorful light did hit the monster's mouth. The alien beast roared in pain.
But the damage done was healed in just a few seconds.
The Stream Ray is of course very strong, and its single-round output power far exceeds that of the Specium Ray. It can be said to be the strongest single-shot ray among the Ultra Brothers, except for Zoffy's M87 Ray.
But it has no special ability to kill cells.
The regenerative ability of the alien beast is much stronger than Ji Yajun expected, it is almost immortal.
The damage from this blow healed quickly, but it angered the other party. Just like slapping a fly, Northfield slapped him again.
In mid-air, Ji Ya was unable to dodge flexibly. At this moment, Northfield's palm suddenly exploded.
"Sorry, I'm late." Goroki shot out emerald green Amerim rays from the head of the Seven Armor. At the same time, Nishijo threw out the Eight-Point Light Wheel to cut towards the monster's arm.
It is worth mentioning that although the Octagonal Light Wheel is a cutting skill, it is also formed by Spesium energy and is another way to use Spesium rays.
The cells in the monster's cut hand were indeed necrotic and did not regenerate.
"Nishijo, aim for the monster's mouth. Its regenerative cells are concentrated inside the mouth."
As long as the regenerative organ in the mouth is destroyed, Northfield's regenerative ability will be greatly weakened.
But Northfield, who also understands his own weaknesses, will certainly not give in easily. The pain of a broken hand makes it crazy. The alien beast is also a living being, not a super beast without the sense of pain.
"Co-Captain, I can't aim at its mouth."
"Then wait. Himeya and I will distract its attention, and you can attack when you find an opportunity."
"clear."
Goroki made a gesture to Himeya Jun, and Himeya understood. He and Goroki distanced themselves and attacked Northfield from different angles.
"Try this, Ultra Saber!"
It was a saber made to imitate Seven's ice axe. It could be used for close combat or to release energy attacks similar to "sword energy" from a distance. One strike was enough to split mountains and rocks, and even the skin of alien beasts might not be able to resist it.
At the same time, Jun Himeya released the Stream Ray again.
The saber cuts the hands, the light shoots the legs, and the division of labor between the upper and lower parts is clear.
Aliens feel pain, and when they feel pain they get afraid, and when they are afraid they hide; this is the instinct of living things.
"Right now, Nagi!"
Spessium Rays!
Chapter 552: Attempt
spessium rays
In the Earth of that world in the past, this light had a special meaning for human beings.
The original Ultraman was the god of war who protected mankind. He defeated the enemy again and again with the Specium Ray, letting the humans who first came into contact with the universe know that there were not only evil invaders in the universe, but also friendly civilizations like the Kingdom of Light.
The world is not hopeless. As long as we maintain our conscience, we can gain a foothold in the universe.
So the Spesium ray is the light of hope.
