Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 525 The Destroyed Base

This world.

Xia Chuan's consciousness returned, and his vision was filled with a cosmic starlight.

He wasn't in a school villa, but on an unfamiliar platform suspended outside the atmosphere. Directly in front of him were several silver-robed figures talking to each other, seemingly completely unaware of his presence.

"Skynet still can't replace the real Divine Mirror System; we can only wait until we win the challenge to gain final access."

"Still unable to find the lost Divine Mirror System?"

"It's difficult, mainly because I didn't expect Lipia to become a Kamen Rider, and even Bizom got caught up in it."

The man in the silver robe spoke without emotion, yet one could clearly sense the anger emanating from him.

"And there probably isn't enough time."

"Has the time and location for the challenge been confirmed?"

"Right in Japan, the 'Extreme Fox' dungeon will serve as a prelude. All the ranked knights will be pulled into 'Extreme Fox'. If a Desire Grand Prix is ​​held, the Desire-type knights will have a certain advantage."

"The ordinary desire system is insignificant."

The man in the silver robe stepped forward and walked up to Xia Chuan; the area under his hood was completely dark.

"Extreme Fox was one of the earliest dungeons to appear. After so many years of research, we still can't control it? I remember that I had already predicted that Extreme Fox would be the main stage."

"The X Foundation Research Institute was originally developing an administrator driver, but this time... There's still no concrete news from the institute, but judging from the last message they sent back, it's probably hopeless. There's no way anyone could still be alive."

"The Japanese R&D branch is finished, and the Mefilas aliens haven't said anything?" Another silver-robed man was even angrier. "Damn it, I heard he was the one who encouraged Bizom to enter the dungeon."

"It's not entirely his fault; we never expected Lipia to become the creator god of the knight world."

The man in the silver robe in the middle waved his hand.

"Before the challenge begins, we must halt all Alliance activities in Japan, remain silent, and focus all our efforts on data restoration. We need stronger dungeon gods."

"The report below states that the Creation King Project has entered its final stage, and the Ark evolution data has been successfully collected," explained the silver-robed man, who appeared to be a strategist. "If we also obtain the power of the Creation Goddess from 'Extreme Fox,' the probability of winning the challenge should be one hundred percent."

"One hundred percent?" A red light shone from the darkness of the hood. "We need to achieve one thousand percent!"

What percentage, one thousand percent?

While secretly complaining, Xia Chuan also confirmed that these were the core high-ranking members of the alliance.

He felt something far beyond Bizom, and strangely, no one took him seriously, as if he were just an inanimate object.

Inanimate object?

"Whoosh!"

Xia Chuan felt a sense of detachment surge through his consciousness again, and only had time to see a flash of mirror light before he was pulled into the atmosphere by an invisible force.

The platform's outline shrank and faded in my field of vision, and after passing through a cloud of mist, everything in front of me became a vast expanse of white.

It seems they have fallen back into some mountainous area.

The good news is that his consciousness has been restored; the bad news is that he is surrounded by those evil time fogs, the troublesome things that once trapped him.

"call!"

Xia Chuan tried to expand his perception and was surprised to find that the influence he was receiving had become negligible.

Even after returning to his original world, he still retained his divine and extraordinary characteristics.

Level 10, Class B life form.

They are no longer human.

As Xia Chuan silently solidified his physical form, preparing to leave the mountainous area, he suddenly realized that the surroundings looked somewhat familiar.

A large area of ​​explosion debris came into view.

Neither matter nor structure belongs to Earth.

If I'm not mistaken, it seems to be the hull of that previous spaceship.

Is this the Alliance Research Institute?

"We have reached the distress signal area!"

A communication sound suddenly rang out from the white fog, the helicopter rotors stirred the fog, the loud noise carried far and wide before quickly subsiding.

"Buzz... Come back quickly... That's not ordinary mountain fog... Please reply if you receive this... You guys..."

"The victim has been found; vital signs have been detected, but the victim is unconscious."

"The weather conditions are not very optimistic; we need to wait for the wind speed to decrease."

"call--!"

Standing at the windy spot, Xia Chuan extended his senses along the direction the helicopter was traveling and found the unconscious victim on a cliff.

I unexpectedly ran into Kondo Isami again.

He was seriously injured, but he was still alive. It seemed that he had climbed to the top of the mountain and set up a makeshift signal transmission device before losing consciousness.

"Starting to descend!"

The helicopter flew over the cliff, and although there was no response from headquarters, the rescuers began to descend slowly after repeatedly reporting the situation.

Several ropes hung down in the thick white fog. After securing the hooks to Kondo Isamu, the rescuers also tested their sturdiness.

Just as they were about to send a signal to the helicopter above, they found that the white fog had thickened, making it impossible to see the helicopter and even the sound of its propellers seemed to have been erased.

"How..."

The rescuers felt a pang of panic.

All that remained in his ears was the eerie sound of the wind; it was as if the whole world consisted only of him and the victims. The final pull snapped the safety rope.

"ah--!"

Caught off guard, the rescuer slipped and sank rapidly before he could save himself. Although he managed to grab a rope, he completely lost his balance and spun around in the white mist and cold wind.

Seemingly awakened by some terrifying memory, the rescuers were completely curled up and hanging from a single rope, losing their initial composure and unable to control their breathing, screaming like children.

He could no longer hold onto the rope, and despair washed over him like a flood. The intense feeling of suffocation completely blurred his consciousness, and his fingers finally let go.

it's over...

Don't give up.

Xia Chuan grabbed the rescuer and, while manipulating the white mist to dissipate, tied the rescuer and Kondo Isami together to a safety rope.

Whether Kondo Isami's luck is good or bad is unknown.

Given the rate at which this fog erodes, if he hadn't happened to be here, not only would this guy have died, but he would have also endangered these rescue workers.

"A solitary gate!"

When his colleagues on the helicopter received no response, they anxiously called out to the white fog below.

"What's wrong? What happened down there? Komon?!"

"N-It's alright! Let's get out of here quickly!"

As their view returned, the rescuers gasped for breath, as if they had just come ashore from drowning. After responding to their colleagues, they looked down at the cliff below with lingering fear.

There was no one on the cliff, and only unconscious victims remained nearby.

It seems that the near-death experience just now was just an illusion.

"The fog is starting to dissipate," the colleague said in surprise, looking at the gradually clearing mountainous area around them. "I was almost scared to death; there was no sound at all after you went down."

"Wasn't it you who saved me just now, senior?"

"What do you mean, 'save you'? Did something really happen down there?"

"call--!"

Valleys on the ground.

Xia Chuan walked through the ruins of the research institute base in the dimly visible mist, but in the end, he didn't find anything of value.

Almost all the data self-destructed, and not a single piece of equipment was intact.

The alliance will definitely conduct a follow-up investigation, so to be on the safe side, he did not touch the wreckage.

But how did the Alliance Research Base end up like this?

Even through the ruins, one could glimpse the strength of the armed forces; he couldn't imagine what other force on Earth would dare to oppose the Alliance.

"Whoosh!"

After leaving the area of ​​the white mist, Xia Chuan looked towards the sky as if sensing something.

He vaguely sensed the body of the Lippi giant, isolated in another dimension.

It has always existed.

If it weren't for the Star of Light's blockade, he could summon giants to fuse and transform at any time. However, he is currently a Class B life form, which is actually close to Lipia on Earth. He can transform himself using Beta technology.
