Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 171 Sister

"call!"

Water station distribution point.

The yellow wind howls across the Gobi Desert, abandoned boats are stranded on the dry riverbed, car wrecks are overturned and buried, and an old, crooked tree has long since lost all its leaves.

The devastation caused by the meteorite seven years ago was not limited to that one moment; the direct damage was actually limited to the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding land.

The ensuing climate anomalies are the real threat.

Surface water resources are gradually being depleted, and the remaining population has survived only by relying on groundwater and inland lakes. However, seven years later, the chaos is becoming increasingly apparent.

That is why ZECT's Sky Ladder project has become the hope of all mankind.

No one suspected ZECT's true purpose, including most of its members who were kept in the dark.

"Don't steal it!"

"Please line up properly!"

"Once the Sky Ladder project succeeds, we won't have to worry about water resources anymore. A day or two won't make a difference!"

"I told you not to steal it!"

"A pregnant woman? So what if she's pregnant!"

"Quiet!"

"Bang! Bang!"

Several gunshots echoed across the Gobi Desert.

Xia Chuan passed by the fighting crowd, watched for a while, and then continued towards the city.

He has experienced several apocalyptic worlds.

Human beings will always have social classes, no matter when.

Even at this time of water scarcity, some people have more than they can use, while others are fighting desperately for a single sip of water.

As you walk along, you can see bodies lying on the roadside from time to time, mostly children, but there are also quite a few adults.

Although the Gobi Desert is short of water, it also has resources that other places do not have. After sunset, many people in distress dig along the riverbed.

The situation only improved after we crossed the ruins and entered the city.

Except for a few places where traces of past destruction can be seen, many places are no different from normal cities, except that the sky is always covered with a layer of sand and dust.

hospital.

A young man wearing a ZECT elite uniform hurriedly ran past Xia Chuan.

The person wearing the steel bucket is Kagami Shin.

The honest guy in ZECT.

"Xiao Xu!"

A moment later, the young man rushed into the examination room with red eyes, grabbed the doctor, and cried out.

"Doctor! Are you kidding me? You're saying Xiaoxu doesn't have much time left..."

"I'm sorry, because of the meteorite seven years ago... Didn't Miss Xiaoxu tell you?"

"Xiao Xu... she lost both her parents because of that meteorite, and now she's going to die too? Please, please, you must heal Xiao Xu!"

"Da da".

Xia Chuan glanced at the consultation room and pushed open the door to enter the ward.

In front of a rudimentary ventilator, a young girl lay in pain on the hospital bed with a high fever, seemingly on the verge of death.

"Is this what the Tendou Souji requested?"

Xia Chuan walked straight to the bedside

This world is about to become the next instance, and even though Tendou Souji possesses the Hyper Insect Device that allows him to travel through time, he still can't change anything.

The power of a single-dimensional universe cannot counteract the power of multiple dimensions.

"Even at the cost of my own disappearance, I'll save my sister... This is the way of heaven!"

The Kabuto insect instrument climbed onto Natsukawa's shoulder.

"The meaning of becoming the sun is to protect my sister, Mr. Kaminaga, can you understand this feeling?"

"I don't have a younger sister."

Xia Chuan suddenly thought of Kanzaki Shiro.

Is it family affection?

Not only does he not have a younger sister, but he also has no memory of any family at all.

In terms of relationships, it seems to be entirely based on Shinji Kaminaga, yet Shinji Kaminaga is also a loner.

"Who are you?"

After gasping for breath, the girl vaguely spotted Xia Chuan's figure, as if she had been transported back to the meteorite disaster seven years ago.

"Help me, Daddy, Mommy... Xiaoxu is here..."

Xia Chuan turned and walked out of the ward.

He didn't have a younger sister, but he received that affection to some extent.

"The Way of Heaven?"

In the corridor, Kagami Shin looked at Natsukawa's departing figure with surprise, and only after calling out did he realize it wasn't him.

"Which department are you from?" Kagami asked, puzzled, after looking at Natsukawa's ant soldier uniform. "Why do you have the Kabuto Insect Device here?"

"Whoosh!"

Natsukawa calmly turned around, and under Kagami Shin's astonished gaze, he and the Kabuto Insect Gear faded and disappeared.

It was like an illusion, leaving not a trace.

"This...is this some kind of ghost?"

He shook his head violently to come to his senses, and the next moment Kagami Shin's expression changed drastically as he rushed into the ward.

"Xiao Xu!"

……

This world is the Knight's Space.

Xia Chuan's main body floated in a white glow. As waves of spacetime rippled outwards, the projections overlapped, and the Kabuto Insect Instrument returned to Xia Chuan's side.

"Where is this place?" the Kabuto Insect Instrument asked anxiously. "How did we get out?"

"I need to come back to get something."

Xia Chuan glanced around briefly.

This was the first time he had seen the transit space after his telekinetic powers were enhanced.

It's very similar to Ultraman Zeta's transformation space.

For the knight, it also serves as a form of protection, ensuring he won't be attacked from the outside while traveling.

"Whoosh!"

It was still the same underground parking lot. A faint light appeared, and Xia Chuan silently returned to reality with the Kabuto insect device.

It seems impossible to control the time spent in transit spaces.

Fortunately, there weren't many people around, only a few ant soldiers guarding the entrance and exit.

"Clang!"

Xia Chuan took out the Dragon Rider Card from the mirror of the fire extinguisher box, and before the ant soldiers outside could react, he instantly transformed into a Dragon Rider and merged into the mirror world.

He usually moves around in rooms where it is safe to do so, but this time is an exception. Let's go back first.

This time, for the Kabuto dungeon, he plans to try to get there via the Golem Motorbike, just like before.

Otherwise, we can only wait for the official release of the Kabuto dungeon.

Of course, there is another possible solution.

It seems that the moment you become a level 5 knight, a time-space storm will appear, connecting to the corresponding dungeon's time-space.

Regardless of Kabuto's compatibility requirements, as long as he wears the outfit and transforms, he will be at level 5.

"call--!"

Near the school site.

Xia Chuan once again drove the Golem motorcycle into a remote section of road, while Kabuto Insect Instrument beside him was extremely worried, full of confusion but not daring to speak.

This is the world of Xia Chuan, where the aura of the Peerless Dragon is ever-present.

It just doesn't really understand.

Can time and space be traveled back and forth so easily?

It clearly saw the price that the Heavenly Path General had paid.

"Mr. Kaminari..."

"Can you trust me for now?"

The Golem motorcycle beneath Xia Chuan was stopped at the intersection of a straight road.

"I will not become the Supreme Master of Heaven, but I am still the sun."

Compared to Tendou Souji, he was indeed very low-key.

But the sun isn't only what you can see in this world.

Hiding oneself is not a sign of insecurity.

It's to become stronger.

"What?"

Before Kabuto Insect Device could react, it was suddenly grabbed by Xia Chuan, and the ZECT belt condensed in Xia Chuan's abdomen, humming and vibrating under the activation of currents.

"Wait, it's no use..."

"Transform!"

"henshin!"

The Kabuto insect device is held horizontally and embedded in the belt. With the mechanical sound echoing, the honeycomb pattern of the heavy armor spreads out and quickly merges with the Kabuto armor body centered on the belt.

At the same time, the surrounding space experienced another violent fluctuation.

He had encountered strange phenomena several times before, but they seemed to subside quickly because of the game's progress.

"How could that be?"

The Kabuto insect instrument finally sensed the strength of Natsukawa's physique.

"Your body..."

"here we go!"

Xia Chuan flipped the single horn of the insect device, and in the instant of the explosion, he quickly snapped the timer switch.

"Cast off!"

"Clock up!"

"Whoosh!"

The surrounding space changed drastically.

This time, the spacetime reaction did not disappear. In the state of time synchronization, the entire Golem transformed into a beam of light and rushed into the spacetime tunnel.
