Ultraman fighting evolution.

Chapter 272 Soul of Light

On the shore of the lake, Xia Long leaned against the guardrail, staring at the lake in a daze.

"What's the matter, haven't all the worms been wiped out? You don't seem very happy." S hesitated for a moment, and walked to Xia Long's side.

Seeing that it was S, Xia Long sighed softly, "It's nothing."

It has been almost 2 months since he entered the world of Seven X, and he is still just coping passively, calming down the various influences of abnormal energy everywhere.

Although there are some clues compared to the beginning, but...

"Here." S took out a piece of chocolate and handed it to Xia Long. After Xia Long took it, a smile appeared on his face, and he picked one up and put it in his mouth, tasting it intoxicated.

Xia Long knew S's special fondness for chocolate, and it was the first time he saw her share it with others. He looked at it in wonder for a while, but he didn't feel like eating it.

"Hey, is XIA the savior?" S looked at the front and asked casually.

"Savior?" Putting down the chocolate, Xia Long glanced at S, shook his head and smiled wryly, "I never thought I was a savior, just a warrior with limited abilities."

"Soldier?" S looked at Xia Long.

"Well, Ultra Warrior." Xia Long nodded and looked at the night sky.

There seems to be no Ultra Star in this world.

"However, for everyone, XIA is already very powerful," S continued eating chocolate, "XIA has saved many people."

"Perhaps." Looking at the quiet S, Xia Long smiled and didn't say much.

……

"It is confirmed that there is a UFO invasion, and the location is JQ13 in the beta area..."

The next day, Xia Long received a new task again.

In the β region, after the investigation of the UFO crash site, Xia Long and S acted separately and came to the "Fredric" bar alone.

Thanks to the efforts of artificial intelligence, the impact of the bug event was limited to the eastern region, and the distant β region was still as calm as usual, and the most people talked about was the special report on the "savior" planned by artificial intelligence.

Of course, this time there is a new hot spot.

"In the beta area where UFOs have been confirmed to have fallen, people have witnessed glowing spherical objects one after another..."

"Because it flies like a living thing, it is called the Soul of Light. Residents around, please be vigilant!"

The floating monitor was broadcasting as usual, and occasionally someone on the street looked up.

soul of light...

Xia Long stopped and thought silently.

"Ah, XIA!" An exclamation came from behind Xia Long, Xia Long looked back and found that it was Long Nan with a surprised face.

"Mr. Long Nan?"

In a small room, Xia Long sat on the sofa under Long Nan's call.

"Sorry, the place is a bit small." Long Nan smiled sheepishly, and quickly took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator.

"Mr. Longnan used to live here." Xia Long looked at the furnishings in the room and found that most of them were related to the universe.

Aliens, rocket models, spaceship ornaments, astronomical telescopes, and some space movie posters on the wall, and even a poster with only a strange footprint.

Xia Long paid attention to the notes and found that they were the footprints of humans when they first landed on the moon.

As expected of a space fan.

"Did Mr. Long Nan not go to work?" After receiving the beer, Xia Long asked curiously, "I remember correctly, Mr. Long Nan didn't get off work until four o'clock in the afternoon, right? Are you sick?"

Long Nan sat aside in embarrassment, wondering: "In my case, it can be regarded as escape."

"Escape?" Xia Long was slightly stunned.

"Well," Long Nan continued with a self-deprecating smile, "XIA, I always feel that my life is like a nightmare, and I don't know when I will wake up."

Xia Long put down the beer and looked at the tired Long Nan without speaking.

Compared with the numb people, the relatively sober Long Nan will suffer from painful torture, and he has only been gone for a while, and he looks thinner than before, with a haggard face, just like the faint starlight gradually disappearing in the night sky.

"What will happen to my life?" Long Nan looked out the window blankly, the huge monitor just flew outside, and after the formulaic broadcast, boring advertisements filled his ears.

After taking a sip of beer, Long Nan turned to Xia Long and said, "I made you laugh, it's just..."

"I understand," Xia Long shook his head indifferently, and asked, "Did Arisa tell you about that?"

"Universe?" Long Nan wryly smiled, "I really want to see the universe, but even XIA..."

Xia Long patted Long Nan on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "How will you know if you don't try? It's settled, I will come to you after I finish this job."

"Whether you can go to the universe or not, I still want to thank you, XIA," Long Nan nodded, looking at the beer can in his hand and said emotionally, "Actually, I am really envious to hear that you are engaged in work dealing with the universe, so... "

Long Nan squeezed out a smile towards Xia Long: "We must work hard, and work hard together with the dream I gave up!"

"En." Xia Long nodded slightly.

The clerk in front of him still didn't quite believe it, but he said that if he took the other party to the universe to see it, it would definitely come true, and he also took advantage of the opportunity to fulfill Long Nan's dream, although it was only once.

As a passable friend, he didn't want Long Nan to give up his dream.

"This world shrouded in darkness needs hope to save." Xia Long raised his beer can and said to the clerk in front of him in a daze, "Mr. Longnan, I will fight until the last moment, so don't give up your dreams easily. okay?"

……

"From last night until today, there were 29 reports of being attacked by the Soul of Light, but the death toll was 0."

"No abnormality was found in the body of the person who was attacked."

At the temporary meeting point, after Xia Long met with JIN, S, and K, they discussed the news about the Soul of Light.

"How strange!"

"That light, maybe it's looking for something," Jin thought for a while, "I have this feeling."

"Don't talk about subjective speculation." S turned his head in disappointment, turned to Xia Long and said, "XIA, did you find anything?"

Xia Long leaned back on the chair, shook his head and said, "Not yet, I haven't even encountered an attack."

For a while, he almost thought that the Soul of Light was avoiding him on purpose. Although the β area was large, he didn't encounter it once when he patrolled around, which was somewhat unreasonable.

"In short, tonight, continue to track down the real body of that light."

At night, Xia Long still didn't find any trace of the Soul of Light, as if he was playing hide-and-seek with him.

"Is JIN still outside?" When they returned to the meeting place again, S and K were researching something.

"How is your side?" S looked at Xia Long.

"Nothing." Xia Long shook his head helplessly, went to sit beside K, "I can only watch JIN's, what about your side?"

Since Jin is the protagonist of this world, luck should be better than him.

"Cells of extraterrestrial lifeforms were found in the soil on the ground at the crash site," K turned the computer screen to Xia Long. "It's surprising, the age of this creature is at least [-] years old."

K called up the analysis data and said, "Maybe this creature has undergone evolution again and again, and will eventually evolve to the ultimate form."

"Twenty thousand years, evolution..." Xia Long stared at the glowing cell microstructure on the screen.

Will the final form be the same light as Ultraman?

Xia Long's eyes fluctuated, and a trace of curiosity arose in his heart about this "Soul of Light".

Soon, JIN also returned to the meeting point, but to everyone's disappointment, JIN also found nothing, and the investigation of the soul of light was also in trouble.

This continued until the next day.

"There have been no sightings of the Soul of Light since last night, and the last sighting location was F-315 in the beta area."

"Okay, today we will focus on investigating the surrounding area."

Faced with this situation, several people split up again.

"XIA," Jin followed Xia Long, "Last night, Mr. Long Nan mentioned you to me."

"JIN also knows Mr. Long Nan?" Xia Long was stunned, remembering that Long Nan had indeed said that he had met someone who looked like him before, and it turned out to be JIN.

"Well," Jin nodded, took out a card and said, "Mr. Longnan seems to live there."

In β area F-319, Xia Long and Jin came to Long Nan's apartment building together.

The room was still a little chaotic, and the phone kept ringing.

"Eh? Didn't go to the company?" JIN picked up the phone and found that it was from Long Nan's company.

Seeing Jin put down the microphone with a dignified expression, Xia Long asked doubtfully, "Does Mr. Long Nan have anything to do with this matter?"

After leaving the meeting point, Jin hurriedly brought him over.

"No, I just have a feeling." After a pause, Jin rushed out of the room first.

"Feeling?" Xia Long walked to the balcony.

He has no premonition of danger, but Jin's feeling may be real.

Picking up an unfinished can of beer, Xia Long's lips moved slightly.

"Mr. Long Nan..."

　Ah, update first, the Seven X world is coming to an end soon
