Chapter 687 Returning to reality, responding to the common people
……
Nexus ruins world.
The damp wooden floor exuded a faint pine scent. Yue Ji leaned against the window, his fingers unconsciously stroking the rim of the cup - the hot steam from the bowl of millet porridge condensed into mist on the glass, and was torn into wisps of white smoke by the cold wind that seeped in through the window.
Every inch of the space he built speaks of loneliness: the hand-polished oak dining table still has chisel marks on its edges, and every book on the bookshelf was written by him word by word.
Stay.
The sound of rain whispers in my ears.
You've shed enough blood.
Outside the window, lightning burned the outline of the ruins on my retina. Those ancient stone pillars were like silent judges, witnessing the entire process of countless civilizations from birth to annihilation.
If he chooses to stay, perhaps he can become the last witness - when human civilization turns into cosmic dust, at least one soul will remember that they once existed.
But when he looked down at his palm, there was still the warmth that Lin Muze had passed on to him. The boy's thanks had crossed the dimensional barrier and was still slightly warming his nerve endings.
The sizzling sound of the barbecue on the iron grill and the smell of fat dripping off the charcoal fire overlapped with a night in my memory.
He suddenly realized that in this isolated space, even pain had become a luxury - he could taste the sweetness of millet porridge and feel the chill of a rainstorm. This scarred body was still stubbornly proving the reality of being alive.
"Ah……"
The light laughter mixed with the hot air of the porridge hit the window glass. Drops of water slid down the mist, like some kind of silent tears.
The body curled up in the rocking chair was shivering slightly, not because of the cold, but because of the increasingly clear understanding: time never stops for anyone.
At this moment when he was in a daze, alien beasts in a certain world might be tearing the city apart, and Lin Muzhe in a certain universe might be kneeling alone in the ruins.
……
“Are you still editing?”
Liu Yulei looked at Talai in confusion. At the moment, he was editing a video, the protagonists of which were Cero and Nexus.
Ta Lai did not answer Liu Yulei, and the subtitles in the video were still playing.
It's a fiery mix.
He is currently the strongest Ultraman.
Because in other time and space, he is invincible.
How invincible can it be?
In the era when other Ultramen were still fighting one on one, and when Zero was still at his peak and could fight one hundred, his peak appearance was when he could fight one hundred million.
One dozen billion?!
That's right, no matter how strong his opponent was at that time.
But he must be the winner.
Looking at the edited video, Liu Yulei scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Your haircut is too exaggerated, isn't it? It makes me feel embarrassed just looking at it."
"But he does have the ability."
Ta Lai murmured, but Liu Yulei still said worriedly: "There is still no news about Yue Ji, you are like this..."
"It's okay, I'm just cutting for fun, but I'm really curious, can Yue Ji beat 100 million in one go?"
"So you don't know..."
……
Ultra Universe, the former site of the Galactic Empire.
At this moment, Zero is constantly cleaning up the enemies left behind from that year, and the newly born alien beasts are also disrupting the entire area.
"Tsk!"
Cero imitated Bruce Lee and rubbed his face with his thumb to look cool.
"If you want to fight me, you're 20,000 years too early!"
Zero quickly squatted down and swung out two ice axes. Facing nearly a hundred monsters and mechanical enemies, he began to kill them like he did in the monster cemetery back then.
Shin! Shin! Shin!
Two emerald slashes tore through the void in a cross shape. Before the leading Mechagomora could react, dazzling electric sparks burst out from the seams of his armor. Zero's figure rushed forward in the flames of the explosion, and the particle stream brought up by the swirling ice axe was like a galaxy pouring down.
Without any hesitation, Zero swung his arms quickly, and the indicator light above his head also burst out with green laser.
Emelim cut!
Two lasers followed closely, and after shooting three enemies in succession, Zero also started close combat.
Dark Lopus, who attacked first, was blown up by a high kick from Zero before he could launch an attack. After completing the attack, Zero turned around and exerted force, then stabilized his body.
Several Dark Lopus attacked together, and Zero also steadied his breath, then mobilized his whole body and threw a powerful punch.
Boom!!!
In an instant, half of the ruins were illuminated by the light, and the floating metal debris became a silhouette in the strong light. Zero looked at his fist in some surprise.
This attack almost blew up more than fifty enemies.
Wow, I really got myself back to my peak form.
The remaining Dark Lopus Legion suddenly stopped moving, their scarlet eyes flashing synchronously. The next second, they attacked from all directions in perfect tactical formation, and the humming sound of their arm cannons charging became a chorus of death.
Seeing this, Zero didn't hesitate at all. He crossed his two ice axes in front of his chest, and the azure energy gathered like a vortex.
Then, a rough ray blasted towards the large group of enemies.
Zero's Twin Rays!
Zizzi——! ! !
In an instant, blue and rough rays blasted all enemies.
The rough blue-white light stream was like the Milky Way bursting its banks, and the mechanical soldiers along the way were transformed into elementary particles before they could even scream. Wherever the rays passed, the metal ground of the ruins melted into red gullies, and the floating debris twisted and deformed in the high temperature.
When the light faded, only the last figure remained on the charred battlefield.
Looking at the alien beast that looked like Dark Lopus, Zero was not afraid. Instead, he held two ice axes and began to fight with the enemy in front of him.
Two figures suddenly jumped up at the same time!
Zero's flying kick and the alien beast's claw attack collided in mid-air, and the eruption shock wave blew away all the metal wreckage within a radius of one kilometer.
During the flying kick, the ice axe spun back and forth, trying to hit the alien beast. The latter also threw out two ice axes. The four flying objects collided with each other in the air, and Zero began to entangle with its body on the ground.
He did a spinning kick in the air, and the alien beast responded with a sweeping kick, and they exchanged empty moves.
After landing, Zero stood up and did a high sweep, but the Alien Beast lowered its head to dodge again. After landing, Zero did not hesitate and also countered with a sweeping kick, and let the ice axe spin.
call out! !
The shadow of the leg passed by the ground, and the alien beast also did a backflip to avoid it, and in the meantime completed the charging of the light.
The moment it flipped and landed, the alien beast that looked like Dark Lopus took an L-shaped posture, and a strange dark light broke through the air and attacked Zero directly! !
However, after witnessing Yue Ji's battle, Zero continued to grow. He even disdained to switch forms. He took the lead in swinging the first ice axe and rushed towards the light head-on, splitting its light stream into two.
At the same time, Zero hit the second ice axe with a sweeping kick to accelerate it. At the moment the two ice axes collided and combined, spark blades quickly formed, completely blocking the alien beast's light.
All this happened in an instant, and Zero stretched out his right arm and then made an L-shaped posture.
Zero beam ray!
The golden light penetrated out and hit the body of the alien beast directly, washing its body violently!
Zizzi——! ! !
“Disappear!”
Along with the roar, Zero released a beam of light with all his strength. The screams of the alien beast were drowned out by the screams of energy annihilation. Zero knelt on one knee to support the spark blade, and before he could catch his breath, an even more terrifying scene followed.
Hundreds of dark portals opened inside the universe, and countless terrifying alien beasts poured in. Zero, who had just killed a hundred people, was a little weak at this moment.
For some reason, thousands of alien beasts have surrounded him.
"Heh...are they all revived from crystals? You guys are so annoying."
Cero still made harsh remarks, but he felt a little anxious.
There are thousands of enemies. Unless you can transform into Saga, you will not be able to fight against such a large number of enemies.
Just when he was about to try to use the Ultimate Radiant Form and teleport back to the main universe, a red ball of light suddenly rushed into the battlefield.
Looking at that figure, Zero felt relieved.
That is the pure light formed by the power of Ultra King and Noah.
To be more precise, it is a projection of Yue Ji.
Stupid! ! !
The huge light blade instantly chopped up thousands of alien beasts. As the flames spread throughout the entire galaxy, the black Nexus slowly floated down and then nodded to Zero.
"Ha, you're still the same."
Just as Cero was about to make a teasing remark, Nexus disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only the huge black hole in the sky.
"Heh... You're still the same. Stop fighting all the time. Why don't you go back to the Kingdom of Light and take a break?"
Zero's words remained in the void. At this moment, the enemy had disappeared. In the distance, tens of thousands of alien beasts were easily dealt with, which meant that Zero's mission was over.
Nexus in the distance was fighting, and his joyful movements proved that the projection Yue Ji was fighting to his heart's content. Even if he was only relying on instinct and muscle memory, Nexus was crushing the enemy like a meat grinder.
……
Nexus ruins world.
Yue Ji packed up his things, and when he finally came outside the wooden cabin, the sky had returned to eternal dusk.
"Let's go."
After leaving this sentence, Yue Ji came to the edge of the cliff at the beginning of the ruins.
Ji Yajun and Qian Shulian had both come here and looked at the ruins, but now, Yue Ji had his back to the ruins.
In a trance, Yue Ji opened his eyes.
To his surprise, he was not in Stone Wings anymore.
The scorching summer sun swept across his face, and the brief burst of color made Yue Ji a little dazed. He stood up with his heavy body, only to find himself at the seaside.
Looking around, I realized that this was a small island.
He subconsciously clutched the fabric in front of his chest, his body trembling slightly under the black coat. The 37-degree summer sun poured down, but it could not dispel the chill that seeped deep into his bones. When his fingers touched his waist, the familiar outline of the Evolution Truster made him feel a little relieved.
After checking the items on his body, Yue Ji found that except for his cell phone which was out of battery, everything else was still there.
Where is this place?
Ya-ya-!
Snow-white seagulls flew over the emerald sea, their cries piercing the humid air. In the distance, the coconut trees swayed slightly in the heat waves, and farther away, there seemed to be the sound of fishing boats' motors.
It's such a luxurious tranquility.
As he was concentrating on observing his surroundings, there was a sudden rustling sound from the bushes behind him.
call out! ! !
Yue Ji's pupils condensed instantly, and the moment the voice appeared, the Storm Sword had already condensed.
However, a tortoise-shell wild cat came out with a dried fish in its mouth, and its amber eyes stared at him vigilantly. Yue Ji was stunned for a moment, then slowly took out half a compressed biscuit from his pocket.
“Come here,” he said softly, his voice hoarse as if it hadn’t been used for a long time, “I won’t take your fish.”
The man and the cat were interacting at the edge of the island. After watching the cat finish eating the food, Yue Ji turned and left, leaving behind a black silhouette.
Along the way, he witnessed many figures and even caught a glimpse of some people in fateful encounters.
Yue Ji was not in a hurry to leave, because waking up on this island for no apparent reason was very abrupt.
He should have woken up on the Wings of Stone.
"Are you lost? I haven't seen you on the island before."
A sweet voice suddenly cut into his thoughts. Yue Ji turned his head and saw a white-haired girl tilting her head to look at him. Her light blue pupils exuded a special charm in the sunlight.
The language is Japanese.
"Tsk... I really don't want to stay in this place."
When he thought of this country, Yue Ji's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he thought of that damn thing He Ye.
So, he just uttered a Chinese swear word.
"What an idiot."
Ignoring the people behind him, Yue Ji continued to move forward, but the girl behind him continued to ask.
"Are you the exorcist hired from outside this town?"
"What?"
The inexplicable remarks made Yue Ji turn his head away again, looking at the white-haired girl in front of him with disbelief.
"what are you saying?"
"Uh, aren't you? I haven't seen you before, you... aren't you?"
"No, I was just passing by."
Yue Ji seemed to want to end the conversation, and the girl behind him also fell into a state of brain shutdown.
"I'm so annoyed!"
After saying something in an unknown dialect, the girl ran away.
Yue Ji ignored him and continued walking under the scorching sun with his cloak on.
Why is it getting colder?
Yue Ji felt deeply that something was wrong with his body. He held the Evolution Truster tightly and did not find any trace of the alien beast on this island.
After the last check, he entered a restaurant.
There was only a simple electric fan inside. The boss seemed to have not seen any acquaintances for a long time and seemed a little surprised at Yue Ji's arrival.
"What would the guest want?"
Yue Ji checked his body and then asked.
"Is there a charger? I want to charge it."
"Ah, yes."
After charging, countless messages emerged. Yue Ji simply paid the money and ordered a happiness meal.
Then he checked the message which contained a huge amount of information.
There are thousands of messages about Ishilin...
There were also quite a few messages from Pan Ting and Wang Ye, but they were mostly just greetings.
Especially Wang Ye’s.
[Resurrected? ]
【How come he died again?】
[Fuck, you didn't tell me what to do when you die. ]
Looking at these messages, Yue Ji twitched his lips and then replied.
[Fuck you, don't run away even if you want to die, don't think about it. ]
Afterwards, Yue Ji followed with a very abstract emoticon.
The meal came right after, and it turned out to be a chicken and egg rice bowl.
Really happy.
