i'm really only human

Chapter 693 Shadow Mage

"Who are you?"

The shadow of the Shadow Mage was suspended over the port amidst the swirling dark clouds. Wrapped in an evil aura, ghostly afterimages of monsters flew around.

Fujiwara Saiji and his companions, who had just transformed and flown up from the bottom of the sea, only heard strange murmurs. When they looked up, they were covered in knight armor by wailing ghostly shadows.

"what?"

As the captain, Fujiwara Saiji tried to start the Ascension, but still couldn't escape the restraints.

The new knight system makes upgrading a lot easier, but it is still not the same kind of knight as Decade. It can deal with ordinary monsters, but when it encounters monsters of a certain level, the huge gap in strength is immediately revealed.

"This guy is S-rank!"

Not only Fujiwara Saiji, but also Hosou Eimu, Wataru and Onoue Takumi also had faces filled with despair.

The range of enemies in Ultra World is too exaggerated.

When C-level monsters were still boss-level, they were suddenly forced to face S-level monsters, these ultimate monsters that had evolved for who knows how many tens of thousands of years.

It's just like a baby of a few years old suddenly fighting against a boxer in his prime.

"Is that all?" The Shadow Mage spoke roughly under his hood, as if he could not understand the arrival of the knights. His cold voice disappeared as his fingers grasped, leaving only the ghostly shadow to continue exerting force.

"call!"

The four Fujiwara people didn't even struggle as they were lifted into the air like chickens. In front of the horrified gazes of the people in the TV station, they were all swallowed up by the dark vortex, leaving behind screams.

"what is that?"

“Everything was sucked in…”

Hayata Rina, who was serving as a reporter on the scene, dropped the microphone with a bang and looked at the vortex of storm with a look of shock on her face as it swallowed up the four knights and then disappeared.

Judging from the reactions of the people around her, she wasn't the only one who saw those ghostly monsters.

"Lina!"

Da Gu, who had agreed with Meng to continue the investigation, happened to arrive at the port and also saw the final scene of the four knights being captured.

He was very familiar with the Fujiwara clan, especially Fujiwara Saiji, who had become a monster egg hunter that caused many people headaches after the Gatanjea incident.

"What happened, Lina?" When the ship passed the dock, Dagu rushed forward.

"I don't know, but..."

Lina swallowed hard and turned her gaze to the interior of the cabin where the window was broken.

Electric currents spread from time to time in the smoke. The captain and colleagues at the radio station did not dare to approach. Only a few people took out their mobile phones to take photos and videos.

I Meng followed Dagu panting, and when the smoke cleared, my eyes suddenly widened.

In the ruins of the cabin, a shirtless figure was surrounded by lightning, and he lowered his head and half-crouched like a Terminator who had just crossed time and space.

The exposed body was a little fat, which was not very aesthetically pleasing, but fortunately she was wearing a pair of shorts.

A bit ugly, but acceptable.

I don’t know if it was real dizziness or fake dizziness, but it looked like he had fainted.

"Ahem!" I Meng said hesitantly, breaking the silence, "I recognize... I know him. He is Mr. Kondo from our world... Lipia used him as a human body."

"he?"

Dagu exclaimed in surprise, and was the first to react, turning over and jumping onto the boat.

"Hurry up and save people!"

"Zizi!"

The thunder and lightning gradually subsided.

Natsukawa's consciousness descended upon Kondo Isami's body. As his eyes opened with a red glow, a flash of light appeared around him and he automatically put on a black suit.

I don’t know whether to say that Kondo Isami was lucky or unlucky. He was not captured by the Shadow Mage and became the only survivor in the Knights team.

However, the lives of others were not in danger; they were just trapped in a place that seemed like an alternate dimension.

"call!"

Xia Chuan sensed a dark space.

Like the knights, there were also four old men who were captured. They seemed to be the first generation of this time and space, Seven, Jack and Ultraman Ace... the elderly intermediate bodies.

"Kondo..."

My eyes suddenly narrowed, and I just shouted once before changing my words in surprise.

"No, Lipia... is that you, Senior?" Xia Chuan took in the strange expressions of the radio personnel around him, waved his hand and jumped off the ship directly: "Let's find a place to talk alone."

It seemed like he had lost face, but it was just the Kondo Isami just now, and it had nothing to do with him now.

"What's going on?" Seeing that Lina was completely confused after seeing Xia Chuan's transformation out of thin air, her face changed again and again, and she could only turn her inquiring eyes to Dagu.

"I'm not sure either," Da Gu hurriedly followed Xia Chuan and said, "I'll explain it to you later. Don't report this matter for now."

"If I say I won't report it, then I won't report it?"

Hayata Rina looked puzzled.

Not only the uncle who fell into the cabin, but even Dagu felt strange.

It's like a different version.

Still confused, but I felt that there was a lot more light in my eyes.

"Ms. Lina," the radio staff finally recovered from the surprise, "was that... your fiancé?"

"Do you want to report it?"

"Will anyone believe it if the report is published?" Lina said in a powerful tone, "Wait until I have found out the details before reporting."

……

The next day.

A Hawaiian style restaurant.

Daigu and I both took some time off and accompanied Natsukawa around Yokohama.

Without the mirage, the city returned to its normal peaceful state.

There was no trace of any abnormality.

"Where's Asuka?" Xia Chuan suddenly asked after he sat down, "It shouldn't just be you two coming, right?"

"Asuka...seems to think this world is the real world."

I Meng explained the situation to Xia Chuan with a heavy heart: "The biggest problem is that we have lost the ability to transform. Senior, can you still transform now?"

"I just borrowed Kondo Isami's body to come into this world."

Xia Chuan closed his eyes for a moment.

In one day, he had almost figured out the current situation of the Super 8 world.

The four elderly interdimensional entities who had been living in Yokohama as ordinary people all disappeared on the eve of the mirage appearing.

This restaurant is currently run by the human form of Seven, Tuan Moroboshi.

"It was probably the night before yesterday," the kitchen boss lady quietly wiped away tears when asked by Dagu, "She suddenly said she had something to do and she never came back..."

"There is something wrong with this world."

Wo Meng said in a deep voice, he took out the sapphire cone transformer that had lost its luster.

"But what can we do now?"

"There must be a reason why this world asked you to come here."

Xia Chuan took a sip of juice casually.

"Look for the reason in you in this world, and perhaps regain the ability to transform."

"We in this world?"

"Like dream promises or something like that."

Xia Chuan heard the sound of a bell from somewhere, and vaguely sensed the presence of the girl in red shoes and white skirt again.

No matter which Ultra World you are in, if you can't transform, it is most likely because there is something wrong with your idealism.

His situation is relatively simple.

Let’s rescue the knights who serve as anchors first.

He can also transform with the help of Kondo Isami, but fighting against super S-level enemies... will definitely cost Kondo Isami his life.

If nothing unexpected happens, Shadow Mage will probably attack my Meng Ji next, so he can take advantage of the situation from behind.

"Dream?" I suddenly thought of Fujimiya in this world. My eyes lit up and I leaned on the edge of the table. "I know! I know what I should do, and it's quite simple!"
