Bad luck plagues him, he refuses to become a Kamen Rider.

What's going on? Wasn't Helheim supposed to only have Outworlders? How did this thing get out of there, and even bring along some Phantom Demon stuff?

and many more!

Yuuki suddenly realized a crucial problem.

Since humans can enter Helheim, the monsters active in the real world can naturally also enter Helheim through the rifts that appear.

Thinking of this, Yu Xing gasped.

Doesn't this mean that Helheim has long since become a stronghold for monsters?!

The strange creatures have a much better chance of surviving in Hel than humans do.

If most of the strange people accumulated in the first three years have hidden in Helheim, then things will get really serious.

The threat posed by the combined forces of several eccentric individuals far exceeds that of Helheim itself.

If that's really the case...

Yuuki suddenly remembered that afternoon he had told him that he was going to continue exploring Helheim.

"Holy crap! Didn't this idiot check the contents of the USB drive?!"

He cursed angrily, jumped up from the chair, and grabbed the phone next to him.

Chapter 49 The Man in the Shadows

"beep--"

The call went unanswered, which made Youxing's face darken: "How can this guy be so fast!"

It had only been a few hours since Guihu told him about Helheim!

"Sometimes being too career-oriented isn't a good thing."

He muttered a complaint and then dialed Rin's number, but the dial tone kept ringing until Yuuki was getting a little anxious before it was finally answered.

"Hey?"

The voice had a heavy nasal tone, indicating that the person had just woken up.

Then came a complaint from Rin Ichijo: "I've been researching for days, and I finally got a chance to rest for a bit, but then you called me again."

"People get tired too, you darn Yuuki!"

"Wake up! Guihu has gone to Helheim again!"

Yuuki had no time to respond to Ichijo Rin's complaints; his voice was deafening, bringing Ichijo Rin back to her senses.

"Where did you go?"

"Helheim!"

"What's the big deal? There's absolutely nothing to worry about."

Rin Ichijo clearly didn't understand, and he yawned.

"You haven't looked at the contents of the USB drive?"

Seeing Rin Ichijo's appearance, Yuuki asked her a question.

"Of course I've seen it."

"Do you know that the Gurongi jumped out of Helheim?"

Rin hummed in agreement and shared her thoughts with Yuuki.

After listening to Rin's words, Yuuki nodded.

"I think the same way you do; there's a high chance that weirdos are hiding inside."

"But I must remind you, Guihu's job isn't just to explore Helheim; they're the vanguard, heading into areas with no signal!"

He told Rin everything he had guessed, and she fell silent. Then—

"Damn it! Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

A lizard, like a dancing maggot, quickly wriggled on the bed and got dressed.

"Let's meet at the conglomerate's gate. I'll take you inside!"

Without further ado, Youxing hung up the phone and fled the rented apartment.

Once on the street, Yu Xing suddenly realized he didn't have a car, and he cursed under his breath again.

After looking left and right, he hid in the alley.

Then a figure soared into the sky and headed towards the World Tree Foundation.

-

Less than 15 minutes later, a police car stopped at the entrance of the conglomerate. Rin got out of the police car, looked around but didn't see Yuuki.

He was about to call Youxing when someone tapped him on the shoulder from behind, and he turned around abruptly.

"Hi~"

With her wings folded, Yuuki landed behind Rin, a smile on her face.

"Damn! Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Rin jumped up, took two steps back, and patted her chest.

"This isn't meant to surprise you."

Before Rin could say anything more, Yuuki, holding the card in one hand and grabbing him with the other, headed towards the conglomerate.

"It hasn't been long, and I believe we still have a chance to win him back."

After successfully swiping his card to enter the conglomerate, Yuuki headed straight for Sengoku Ryoma's location.

The door was pushed open forcefully, startling Sengoku Ryoma, who was engrossed in the lab work. He quickly covered up the experimental data.

With an angry expression, he was about to turn around and yell at someone when he was met by Youxing, who rushed over in a flurry.

"Old Ma, what are you researching?"

Yuuki quickly scanned the lab.

"nothing."

Swallowing the profanity that was about to come out, Sengoku Ryoma remained expressionless.

Yuuki didn't dwell on this too much; his real purpose was to ask how long Wudao Guihu had been gone.

Upon hearing this question, Lingma glanced at the clock on the wall and thought for a moment: "It should have been less than an hour ago."

This made Yuuki breathe a sigh of relief. Just as he had thought, Guihu had only recently ventured into the unexplored area.

Thanks!

After a hasty thank you, the two left.

Once he confirmed that the two had left, Sengoku Ryoma breathed a sigh of relief and adjusted his glasses.

"Thank goodness we weren't discovered..."

He muttered to himself, looking at the lab table, where Yuuki's hair was placed in a petri dish!

-

Passing through the opening rift, Yuuki stuffed the belt from her bag into Rin's hand.

"Although this belt is a special edition for me, it should be more than enough for self-defense."

Rin didn't refuse and immediately took the belt and lockseed.

After all, he was just an ordinary person who was somewhat strong. If he really encountered a strange person like the alien, he wouldn't be able to withstand even a single blow.

Yuuki didn't have such worries; he felt as free as if he were back home when he returned to Helheim.

The two walked along the road to its end, where Yuuki discovered the mark left by Kureshima Takato.

"go!"

The two crossed the repaired road and entered the most vast forest in Helheim.

As Yuuki and his companion chased after Kurejima Takatora, Kurejima Takatora, on the other side, had already led his team to discover something extraordinary.

"team leader……"

The team stood before the sinkhole, each member utterly awestruck.

Looking at the ruins below, Wu Daogui felt a wave of dizziness.

He never imagined that he could find ruins resembling human architecture within the Helheim.

This means that humans once lived in Helheim!

What did they eventually become?

Undoubtedly, they are outsiders who have come to their world.

"What a stunning discovery!"

The archaeologists following behind the group were filled with fervor; this was a groundbreaking and unprecedented study that could shake the world!

If any of them can be the first to publish this, they will surely become the world's top archaeologists!

Upon realizing this, some people couldn't control themselves and immediately picked up their cameras to take a series of pictures of what was below.

Guihu merely glanced at the man indifferently, without making a move.

Without the corporation's permission, these people have absolutely no chance of making these discoveries public.

But after several takes, the person suddenly stopped and stood there, stunned.

The archaeologists accompanying him paid no attention, their faces still fixed on the building below with fervor, constantly scribbling and drawing.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, the blade pierced his body.

The special forces members accompanying the archaeologists suddenly became alert, instantly raising their guns and aiming them at the fanatical young archaeologist who had committed the murder.

This person was the archaeologist who had been standing there in a daze.
