Ultraman in the world of grams

Chapter 367: If anyone is not around, treat her as a hostage

The words spoken by the suspected Professor Douglas in front of him were very shocking, but William had to admit that they seemed reasonable.

For a moment, he even had some doubts about whether the world he was in was the real world.

He had just been waiting on the submarine to pick up his expedition team, but when he turned around, he discovered what seemed to be a phantom from the past. It would be magical if this kind of thing happened to anyone.

Not everyone is like Nanke who has been exposed to the poison of information technology, and has been baptized by various time-travel novels and science fiction films from a hundred years later.

Fortunately, after William has experienced so many things, he is no longer the cute boy he was before.

No matter how shocked he was in his heart, no matter how doubtful he was about life and the world, the first thing he wanted to do was to get to know the other person through testing, to explore whether this was a phantom or whether he had really gone back to the past.

Judging from the current situation, he has indeed returned to the past.

When it comes to the level of time, it is no longer a category that humans can control and interfere with. It almost belongs to the level of gods. At least in William's view, time is indeed an established attribute that humans cannot change.

Being able to travel through time and space is a phenomenon that ordinary humans cannot touch or understand.

For some reason, when he thought of traveling through time, William suddenly felt an indescribable horror deep in his heart, as if there were a pair of eyes hidden in the mist, curled up in the cracks of time and space, watching greedily. In front of these prey that accidentally broke into time and space, they are ready to tear the prey into pieces at any time.

Every nerve in him seemed to be screaming.

But this feeling comes and goes just as quickly.

It was as if it was an illusion, and the feeling he just felt was just an illusion caused by the fog.

Is this from a potential threat?
Or a reminder and warning of inspiration?

William didn't understand the mystery, but he had been vaguely aware of it.

Traveling through time and space unprepared may lead to a fate worse than death.

In addition to the possibility of traveling through time and space, it is not ruled out that he has entered some illusions on the island.

The people in front of me may just be shadows of the past.

Even these images are too intelligent... They can actively answer his questions, and even interact with him, a phantom that does not originally exist here...

Of course, these people may not be phantoms...

They might just be trapped on this island, blocked by the fog, unable to contact the outside world, and even unable to detect the passage of time.

This may also explain the reason for their disappearance...

No one can tell what kind of emotions are hidden under the face of the Kamen Rider, which is covered with a hard mask.

Or maybe He simply doesn't have the emotions that humans should have.

The brown bear-like captain suppressed the negative emotions in his heart and suppressed the temptation in his eyes. Although the turmoil in his heart was not easy to calm down, he could not panic at this time.

After Professor Douglas answered the question about time, the Kamen Rider did not say anything.

The air seemed to be stagnant, and the flow of time became strange. No one knew how long it had passed.

Maybe even as early as 1923...

No one took the initiative to say anything, and even their breathing was kept to a minimum.

The human expedition team and the humanoid monsters faced each other, and they were clearly divided.

The smell of tension permeated the air, and after the surrounding fog was dispersed by the power of thunder and lightning, there was a vague tendency to gather again.

In the end, it was the Kamen Rider who took the initiative to speak.

Although there was still not much emotion that could be heard in that voice, it was sharp and strange, like a penetrating thunder, or like a monster's roar, stirring the fragile nerves of humans.

But fortunately, the words spoken by the other party are basically rational and understandable.

"I know you, the Miskatonic University expedition..."

The other party paused for a moment, and looked at the old professor in the middle - let's take it as the direction where the eyes were looking.

"Especially you, Professor Douglas."

This Kamen Rider's tone could even be considered polite and respectful.

Not only the old professor, but even the captain next to him showed an expression of disbelief.

On an island full of abnormal and sane walking corpses, in a strange fog, I encountered a weirdo who was not like a human being, and this weirdo also had reason and powerful power...

Under such a weird and strange scene, this weirdo said that it knew them, and even focused on a respected old professor in their team.

At that moment, the captain's speculations ranged from conspiracy theories to the Big Bang.

This is just as scary as the potato chips you have always eaten, and then you try a new flavor of potato chips, and suddenly find out that the potato chips are made of cockroaches. What is even more creepy is that you also eat these potato chips. Half, the other half talks in your belly.

No matter who encounters this situation, it is impossible to maintain a normal mind, and the team's psychological quality will probably be over soon.

Fortunately, Professor Douglas's mental quality is still strong. Although his fingers in his sleeves are trembling a little, fortunately, this old professor does not have heart disease and is in very good health.

The old professor was silent for a long time, then managed to calm down and joked with humor.

"Really? I don't even know when I became so famous."

"Maybe it's because I know your students."

The Kamen Rider spoke unbelievably terrifying words in an understatement.

Professor Douglas is really going to die now.

He almost couldn't catch his breath. Such ups and downs were really terrible for an old man. Even an old man in good physical condition could not withstand such a terrible torment.

He quickly recalled which of his students could provoke such a terrifying existence.

It was obvious that he had given countless instructions to the uneasy students, warning them not to rashly try to contact existences other than human beings just because of unknown temptations.

Even the slightest curiosity or an undetectable mistake may lead a person to an irreversible situation.

Every time his students wanted to make a dangerous attempt, he would be there to check over and over again whether the process was formal and he was also very concerned about the students' mental state.

Those who graduate under him are either ordinary people who know nothing, or they are cautious professional investigators.

Except for the one student he is currently teaching...

Professor Douglas finally regained his composure and asked tremblingly.

"Excuse me...which of my students is this?"

"A wonderful lady, strong and brave, her name is Elizabeth Ellis."

At this moment, Professor Douglas really rolled his eyes and almost fainted.

He knew very well how dangerous it was for an ordinary human being to be targeted by a weirdo, not to mention that Ellis was only half-experienced and had not fully mastered it at all!He couldn't even imagine how dangerous it would be for such a newbie to fall into the hands of a terrifying weirdo.

It is possible that even death will only be regarded as relief by then.

It will even turn into something unimaginable, getting further and further away from human beings, and eventually the human being named Ellis will no longer exist.

Even if the Kamen Rider in front of him described Ellis in a friendly tone, Professor Douglas simply couldn't believe it.

What's the difference between handing over a human life to a being with cunning wisdom and betting all your chips in a casino? !

At most, it’s the difference between dying faster and dying slower!

Poor Ellis, she hasn't even been in love or married yet!

Because Professor Douglas and his wife have no offspring, he almost treats Ellis as his own child.

And now, he almost watched his child being sentenced to death.

Looking at the face of the old professor in front of him, his face turned green and white, and finally turned dark after all the colors came into play.

Kamen Rider said calmly.

"Don't worry, Professor Douglas, she is safe now."

Professor Douglas trembled with blue lips, suppressing the panic in his heart and trying to calm down.

"……Excuse me……"

"Are you a threat?"

"Maybe……"

Kamen Rider did not give a clear answer.

"It depends on your attitude. What I am showing now is my friendliness, and I hope we will not be enemies."

William silently apologized to a certain red-haired rich woman who was not present and their benefactor.

He didn't mean to threaten Ellis' mentor, but in the current unclear situation, he had to seize everything he could use.

Even if he cancels his transformation now and says that he is just an ordinary human with the power of Kamen Rider, he will not easily gain the trust of the expedition team. After all, humans who come out of the fog are not trustworthy in any way, not to mention that there are still Weird power.

In this case, let the fear become deeper.

Using Ellis's personal safety, who is not here, to threaten these expeditions that he is not familiar with should be able to ensure that the people in the next expedition will not take action against him...at least it will make the old professor have some scruples.

On weekdays, he had heard Ellis say that the relationship between her and her mentor was very good, and now it seemed that this was indeed the case.

The old professor was almost fuming with anxiety.

If this is the real Professor Douglas himself, I hope he won't really get mad at him and cause problems.

William guiltily thanked Professor Ellis and Douglas who were not present again.

…………

"Ah-"

Ellis huddled in the hut, wrapped in a blanket made of sealskin, sneezed deeply and couldn't help but shiver.

"It's alright."

A woman speaking Spanish with some old grammar and wrapped in a gray cloak held a bowl of steaming milk in front of Ellis and asked her with concern.

"It's okay, maybe I just caught a cold from being soaked in sea water..."

Ellis quickly pushed away the hot milk that the woman handed her, "It's really no need, Mrs. Anna, I'm very grateful to you for being able to rescue me from the sea!"

"How can this work?"

Mrs. Anna was very enthusiastic, and Ellis persuaded her to put down the hot milk.

After watching Mrs. Anna's leaving figure, Ellis breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course she wouldn't dare touch any of the food here.

In fact, it's quite baffling how she ended up in this small village.

She was almost killed at the beach, but for some reason they rescued her because she was a human being.

This made her a little baffled.

I don’t understand what Uncle Anthony, the rugged strong man who saved her, Mrs. Anna’s husband, meant.

Along the way, all the residents who saw her were a little nervous at first, but after seeing that she was indeed a human being, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

This made her vaguely feel the undercurrent surging inside.

This is a small town built in the south of the island. People here have a variety of accents, including Spanish, Portuguese, some English and French, and even various dialects. The only problem is probably that their usage is relatively different. Ancient times.

Ellis's modern accent is not too out of the ordinary in this hodgepodge of diverse talents.

She silently wrapped her little quilt tightly and stared at this small house with a strong colonial feel. A terrible guess suddenly popped into her mind...

Shouldn't...

…………

Captain Linden can be said to be the most confused person in the team.

When he stepped onto this bare red island with no trees or any life, he observed the surroundings very carefully, searching for possible clues and dangers that he didn't know when they might appear.

Then, a strange fragrance suddenly filled the air from nowhere.

The fragrance is intoxicating, like the sweetest wine in the world, a fine wine that only emperors can enjoy, and also like a peerless delicacy, a beauty that only exists in heaven and dreams.

The breath was like a light palm, caressing his senses with deep love, quietly taking him into the paradise of bliss, bringing him the most extreme joy. Nothing in the body could compare to the beauty of this moment. .

Captain Linden quickly realized something was wrong, and overcame the will in his mind to sink all the time, trying to get rid of the strange aroma.

Although the strands of wonderful breath are gentle, they are like spider threads, firmly trapping the prey and dragging him into the paradise world.

Let him sink in his sweet dreams.

PS. There was a mistake in last night’s update. I confused the English knight class with Kamen Rider’s rider. The latter means rider, not a knight.
