There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

They knew that their abilities came from the core, because they witnessed Sebastian and Kato Megumi gain incredible abilities after using the core, so it was not surprising that they directly asked for this thing.

After thinking for a moment, Yukino also asked Kitahara Sora, "What are your plans?"

When Sebastian heard this, he was a little surprised and a huge sense of guilt filled his heart. Yukino left after using this thing on him. When he woke up, Woods told him that Yukino said this thing was very valuable and they didn't have much, so the archaeologist actually always had a lot of gratitude towards Kitahara Sora in his heart.

The meaning of Yukino's words was very clear. The captain still had this thing, and she was not careful with her mouth. She did not firmly refuse it at the first time and wanted to hear Kitahara Sora's opinion.

"actually……"

"Ask the leader what he will exchange for." Kitahara Sora interrupted Sebastian and lifted up Kato Megumi with one hand, not noticing that the girl's face behind him suddenly turned red. He flipped his palm, and the last core in the ring emitted a faint golden light and appeared in the palm of his left hand.

The Iron-Blooded Elder's eyes were immediately attracted by the golden sphere in Beiyuan Kong's hand. Without even Sebastian's translation, he reached behind him and placed his own retractable spear across in front of Beiyuan Kong, letting out a low-frequency roar, as if he was saying something.

Beiyuan Kong frowned immediately. In the plot, you gave this thing directly to Woods. You wanted to exchange the core with the elder's spear. This greedy behavior is too ugly. Can all intelligent life escape the nature of greed?

But before he could say anything, Sebastian acted like a puppet army leader, fearing that Bei Yuankong had angered the elders, and hurriedly said, "He said you don't have the right to choose. The leader said he must get the core no matter what!"

"This……"

Yukino opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but was immediately interrupted by Kitahara Sora. He threw the core lightly and was held in the hands of the elder: "Deal, the spear will do."

This move not only shocked Sebastian, but also Woods. Wasn't it said to be very valuable? How could you agree so decisively to exchange such a thing that surpasses technology and is obviously a big loss? At least bargain a little!

The elder held the ball in his left hand and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes, then with his right hand he threw the spear directly to Beiyuan Kong. The fangs on his cheek twisted quickly and he looked very excited. After a moment, he turned around heroically and walked into the warship without leaving the water.

"..."

"Is this a deal?"

Yukino held her forehead with her hands, looking very speechless. Her iron-blooded personality was really...straightforward?

But Bei Yuankong was staring blankly at the shortened spear in his hand. The core was actually not expensive, only one thousand points. If he exchanged weapons from the observer, perhaps one thousand points could not buy an ordinary Iron Blood spear, let alone an elder-level war spear. He felt a little unhappy at first because this thing was not expensive to Bei Yuankong, but it was different for Iron Blood.

Seeing the other party's firm attitude, Kitahara Kong immediately gave in. He couldn't stand up to such a straightforward creature, so he just let it go. Even if he suffered a loss, it wouldn't be much anyway.

But after I got this thing, I heard the observer's message in my mind...

"Obtain a special item, Ancient War Spear, item level: B."

"High-tech cold weapons, unable to destroy defensive items above B-rank, and inflict less damage to ghost-like supernatural creatures."

Special item, this thing is actually a special item? I remember there is a column in the attribute column that specifically marks the special item. Is this thing actually a special item? That means it cannot be exchanged in the exchange space, so it can only be dropped in the dungeon?

And it is marked that defensive items above B level cannot be destroyed. Does that mean defensive items and armors with the same level or below B can be broken? I was tortured by the Tank in the last game and the Queen in this game. The reason is that the defense cannot be broken.

But at this moment, this spear came into his hands like a timely help. If Tanks were graded, they wouldn't be considered B-level monsters. Although its reward was a B-level exchange card, he just didn't know how to kill it. If he had this thing in the previous game...

Looking at the double-headed trident and the handsome spear in his hand, Bei Yuankong's eyes sparkled. Doesn't the hunter have three talents? Isn't the survival hunter mainly melee? How about going back and changing the talent?

A harpoon arrived first, and then both the person and the pet died?

Add the baby Sebastian... well... we can give it a try!

Just as Kitahara Sora was in a daze, Sebastian suddenly took off his mask and smiled regretfully at Kitahara Sora. His tone was full of gratitude, self-blame, and apology, but his eyes were full of sincerity: "Captain, I'm sorry for wasting your two cores."

Beiyuan Kong's eyes were stern, and his tone was cold and serious: "What do you mean?"

The Iron Blood Army returned to the space battleship one after another, but they just stood at the edge of the dock, and the elders also stood there looking at them, as if waiting for something.

"Droza." Beiyuan Kong looked at the archaeologist seriously, then relaxed his momentum and said helplessly: "Until now, you still refuse to tell me what you think?"

Sebastian just smiled and shook his head. He reached his hand to his neck, took off his amulet, put his hand around Woods' neck, and then hugged her tightly: "This is my amulet. It can bring you good luck."

Woods finally burst into tears. Her trembling chin prevented her from speaking a complete sentence, but she still choked up and forced a smile, "A Coca-Cola bottle cap produced in 1950, a valuable archaeological discovery?"

"When the priest was baptizing the believers, I 'accidentally' let it fall into the container of holy water." A black humorous expression suddenly appeared on Sebastian's pale face, and he smiled frivolously: "Although I know that it is just tap water that has not been sterilized and filtered, it always brings me good luck, doesn't it?"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and punched Kitahara Sora's chest hard. His tone was no longer respectful, but more bitter: "I asked you to stay only on a whim."

Sebastian raised the microcomputer on his left arm armor, tapped the helmet that needed to be connected through the computer, and said with a smile: "The queen left this thing for me, so I think I can communicate with them. I let you stay just because I don't want to annoy them. Well, I'm just afraid of accidents."

"So, the deal isn't just about the core, it's also about you, right?" Yukino understood and continued, "They need someone to assist with the research, and you happen to be able to communicate with them, so you're the perfect person."

"Ms. Yukinoshita, you're great." Sebastian nodded and continued, "So, I decided to stay. If the side quest remains unfinished, then I can stay forever. I might drag down the entire team because of my personal reasons, but I think that when the stipulated time comes, I might automatically leave the team or be forcibly sent back. In fact, I want to complete the side quest more. I want to increase my chances of survival because I still have a son."

Sebastian smiled and continued, "You and Komuro Takashi have discussed some basic things, and he told me afterwards. After completing each mission, there is a seven-day rest period. I want to see if the Observer will force me to go to your next mission site after these seven days, or force me to leave. If it's the second option, it's actually better news for me."

Kitahara Sora had not considered this point. He really had not thought that much about the side quests. In this world, there was no such naive idea as "take a chance and turn a bicycle into a motorcycle". Ambition was much cheaper than life.

As for side quests, I always take it easy if I get it, and take it easy if I lose it. If I can do it, I will try it, and if I can't do it, I will give up. This is also Yukino's attitude, so she used the core on the archaeologist without hesitation.

But I couldn't understand why Sebastian was so determined to stay. His reasons were lame, but since he didn't want to say it, I was too lazy to ask.

"Decided?"

"I've decided. Unfortunately, I can't accompany you on your adventure because this is my hometown."

Sebastian's eyes were wet with tears. He was already at the end of his strength. Despite being seriously injured, he could still hold on for so long. Perhaps it was the bonus of his profession, or perhaps it was the will of his faith. Now he was on the verge of collapse. Kitahara Sora didn't know what kind of deal he had reached with Iron Blood.

But he told Kitahara Sora that he needed to be treated by Iron Blood Technology. The existing medical methods on Earth could not heal his serious physical injuries, and the Core could only work once for each person. He also agreed to assist Iron Blood in cracking the secret of the Core, and lied that this thing was mass-produced and they obtained it from an ancient relic somewhere, but that relic had almost disappeared.

He didn't know how to complete the side quest, nor did he know if this quest really had a hidden time limit, but he wanted to give it a try.

So, he dragged his broken body and stepped onto the iron-blooded battleship.

When the hatch rose and closed and the battleship slowly rose, Woods covered her face and cried. It seemed that Sebastian told her more than he told Kitahara Sora.

Facing the boy's puzzled look, Woods raised his head and looked him in the eye without fear. After a moment, he said with sadness, "Derosa has a seven-year-old son, and he asked me to take care of him." The adventurer took the Coca-Cola bottle cap out of his collar and squeezed it hard in his hand: "The reward is this little thing."

Yukino squatted down, put her hands on the explorer's shoulders, and asked softly, "Did he tell you everything?"

Woods was silent for a while, then nodded repeatedly and said, "I don't know, I'm confused. If everything is fake, then you must be real?"

She raised her head, and the starlight was reflected in her crystal pupils. The wind and snow stopped, and a colorful stream of light appeared in the sky, dividing the world. The magnificent aurora might be the original color of this place.

"I've only known him for less than a week, but I think I already know him. He has spent his entire life researching and studying archaeology. He likes to pursue the truth and explore the true history because that is the trajectory of human existence. But after De Rosa woke up, I felt that he became very strange, as if he had a different soul, because he was very calm when he saw the body of his assistant who had played with him since childhood hanging on the beam. Can you believe that before entering the pyramid, he knelt down crying and begged you to spare his life?"

The adventurer stared at Beiyuan Kong quietly, and said calmly: "I won't guess what kind of witchcraft you used to revive De Rosa. From the moment he turned into a brown bear, I was no longer surprised by anything, until he told me that all this was just a 'mission'."

Woods wiped away his tears, gritted his teeth and looked up at Kitahara Sora: "What a damn mission, you don't want to tell me the truth because you are afraid of losing points? But he is not afraid!"

She looked up at the sky. The huge warship in the sky rose higher and higher, penetrated the atmosphere, and flew into the universe...

"He said that no matter what the truth is, he belongs here, to this Earth. He also doesn't know how to complete what you call a 'side quest', but he speculated that the so-called God Clan is a matriarchal society, and the highest authority of the branch below is the alien just now."

"They have the coordinates of different 'livestock' star systems, so he chose to take a gamble. If this battleship only represents one clan, as long as this battleship loses the coordinates of the Earth, then their so-called Protoss will not be able to find the solar system and the Earth again for at least a thousand years."

"Droza concluded from the ancient stone wall that when the hunters fail, they will destroy everything, so the microcomputer on their arms connected to the helmet is also a portable nuclear bomb..."

When Woods said this, Beiyuan Kong's pupils suddenly widened, and he quickly raised his head to look at the dark sky. He could no longer see the iron-blooded space battleship with his naked eyes, but he still stared at the sky intently...

A few seconds later, a star suddenly began to shine among the stars in the sky, as if a morning star brighter than the other stars suddenly appeared. Its dazzling light seemed a little dazzling in the dark night.

The needle-like light slowly expanded, becoming brighter and brighter, fading the aurora...

Until the entire sky was illuminated, even Beiyuan Kong freed one hand to cover his eyes. In an instant, daylight came and a new sun rose in the sky.

"He doesn't know how to complete your so-called 'side quest', nor does he want to complete it. He asked you to stay just to use you and to prevent Ironblood from becoming wary. That's all."

Kitahara Sora, Yukino, and Kato Megumi were all staring blankly at the night sky.

It was not until a minute later that the strong flash of light that came from the universe, comparable to a nuclear explosion, slowly faded, and a circle of auspicious colored clouds seemed to rise in the sky.

Because sound cannot propagate in the universe, they could not hear any sound. They could only see the devastating explosion, the intense flash of light that almost blinded their eyes, and the huge stream of light that seemed to have left a crack in the sky and spanned the radius of the earth.

"His son is still alive, and his parents are still alive, so he chose to take a gamble. De Rosa didn't want to see his son's son or his son's grandson being slaughtered by them several years after he left. So even if this world is fake, it is his hometown."

"The Earth is his home!"

Woods was already crying and couldn't speak. Kitahara Sora and Yukino no longer tried to comfort her because the three of them, including Kato Megumi, felt very heavy-hearted and couldn't calm down for a long time.

At this moment, the observer's cold reminder came to my mind.

"Unlock side quest completion condition: Eliminate the threat of war (optional)."

"Team Izumo: Side quest completed perfectly (destruction)."

"Members: Kitahara Sora, Yukinoshita Yukino, Kato Megumi, Sebastian De Rosa, 2000 bonus points each, the points will be temporarily stored in the team points column."

"Members: Komuro Takashi, Gouda Takeo. During the coma, they will be teleported to the space by default, and the reward will be void."

"Member: Sebastian De Rosa, genocide 'Jungle Hunter Iron Blood Clan', reward points 2, S-level exchange card one."

"Note: As member Sebastian De Rosa has been confirmed dead, all personal rewards are void and cannot be transferred to the team points column."

"Note: All tasks in this world have been completed perfectly. All members will be forcibly teleported to the game space in ten seconds."

Kitahara Sora, Yukino, and Kato Megumi still looked up, looking at the beautiful glass-colored sky created by the intersection of the aurora and the explosion. Their bodies slowly decomposed from the bottom up and dissipated into the air.

He is just an ordinary person. His hobbies may be more "elegant" than those of ordinary people. But he is a vulgar person at heart. He is not as righteous as Woods, who said in the movie that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". He chose to team up with Scar. He firmly wanted to eliminate all aliens because they would bring disaster to mankind.

Sebastian is not that great. He made this decision only because his children and relatives are still in this world.

This is his hometown.

Volume 0 ③ Welcome to Silent Hill

Chapter 1 I don't quite understand

Kato Megumi still looked up at the sky, but the picture became blurry and the surrounding environment was completely different.

She lay on Kitahara Kong's back, her eyes suddenly widened, and she quickly turned her head in surprise to scan the surrounding environment. The temperature around her became warm and the cold wind stopped howling.

There were towering old trees, lush green meadows, blooming flowers, and the clear chirping of birds ringing in her ears. The stream flowed slowly, and unknown fish jumped out of the water from time to time. A beautiful butterfly paused at the tip of her nose, slowly flapping its wings.

"What a nice view……"

Xue No turned her head and raised the corner of her lips to the dazed school girl, and said with a smile: "Welcome to the Emerald Dream."

"…Emerald Dream?"

"It's just a game space. It was originally all white. The current environment is set by me." Kitahara Sora squatted down gently. After Kato Hui landed, he supported her and said to Yukino, "Yukino and Kato, you guys repair your bodies first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Yukino nodded. In fact, she could hardly hold on any longer and it was difficult for her to even stand.

Kato Megumi, who had come to her senses, looked at Yukino in surprise as she closed her eyes. Then a ball of green light surrounded her, and the whole person slowly floated into the air, and then flew towards the center of the spiral carpet covered with colorful flowers, where a translucent sexy woman like a soul was floating. She had double horns on her head and wore green cool leather armor. She gave people a sense of intimacy like a spring breeze, but at the same time made people feel a kind of vaguely inviolable majesty.

"He is an observer. I set Him up like this. You can understand Him as a super-intelligent program that transcends common sense, or as a god who has lost his mind."

Kitahara Sora said to the light novel heroine in front of him: "Now close your eyes, actively communicate with Him in your mind, and choose to repair your body. He will return you to normal."

"Eh? You mean repairing the body..."

Kato Megumi turned her head to look at Kitahara Sora and was stunned for a moment. Although Kitahara Sora had told everyone the basic common sense here before, Kato Megumi didn't actually hold much hope. After Yukino directly cut off one of her legs, she didn't have time to be sad in that environment, and subconsciously ignored this matter in her heart.

But Kitahara Sora's initiative to bring it up made the child stunned. Yes, I seem to be disabled, but is it really so magical? Will there be no sequelae? But it's better than becoming a disabled person...

Just as Kato Megumi began to daydream, Kitahara Sora's voice came again: "In the last game, Yukino's legs were broken, the leg bones were shattered directly, and I lost my lower body."

He put his hand on Kato Megumi's head and rubbed her hair vigorously. This is also a little sister. She is really great. At first, he thought she was actually very fragile. To be honest, giving her the core in the closed stone room was indeed a gamble, but her excellent performance actually made him shine.

Not only did she adapt to the environment in a very short time, but I also learned from Yukino that she dared to go and fight the Queen! This is definitely a rare talent. When I watched the anime before, I felt that this child was very talented. It would be a pity if she didn't become an assassin. As a result, the system really matched her with an assassin profession. Is this the observer's trick?

Since she has survived and her character is guaranteed, she deserves my sincere treatment. Because in the team of reincarnations, all members need to be sincere. It is so difficult to survive, and it is unrealistic to be on guard against backstabbing by team members. Therefore, although I am not very familiar with her yet, I sincerely hope that this girl can integrate into this group.

Seeing Komuro Takashi and Gouda Takeo approaching, Kitahara Sora ruffled the girl's short hair again and said softly, "Congratulations on your survival, Kato-san. Although the name of our team sounds like it could easily catch fire, you are welcome to officially join the 'Izumo' team."

He turned his head to Komuro Takashi and Goda Takeo and smiled, "Same to you guys."

But the two men paused, and their originally calm mood suddenly became tense. They widened their eyes, their hearts were pounding wildly, a trace of cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they stood there timidly for a while.

"Captain, you can just call me by my name. Thank you for saving me." Kato Megumi reached out and smoothed Kitahara Sora's messed up hair. The corners of her mouth suddenly curled up slightly on her calm face: "I don't mind my hair being messed up, but, does the captain want to kill Komuro Takashi and Gouda Takeo?"

Well... Kato Megumi is used to having a blank expression, so even when she expresses her inner emotions, there won't be much fluctuation in her facial expressions. She is different from Yukino. Although Yukino often has a stern face, the girl is not expressionless. She just doesn't want to look good to people she doesn't know. When she is angry, she will purse her lips, and even when she is particularly angry, she will 'grit her teeth' and show you a kind 'smile'.

But Kato Megumi is different. Maybe she really has an expressionless face. Even if she is very happy, she only shows a very faint smile, with the corners of her mouth just slightly raised. But I have to say that she looks really good when she smiles, as beautiful as Yukino. The two just have different styles.

Although she was laughing, her words made Kitahara Sora's mouth twitch. Okay, okay, I know that I look ugly when I laugh, is this your protest against me messing up your hair?

"Why do you think I'm going to kill you? And you, stop complaining."

Kitahara Sora put away his smile, turned his head and said helplessly to the two male comrades next to him, then he felt his body lighten. Kato Megumi had been wrapped in a soft green light and floated towards the observer. She fixed her gaze on Kitahara Sora, and her eyes were sparkling again.

She was a smart girl, so she changed the subject calmly and interrupted Kitahara Sora's sincere and touching words with a slightly 'impolite' complaint, because she didn't want to cry anymore.

Did the captain, who was so powerful in the last game, lose half of his body? Even a strong girl like Yukino was seriously injured. There is a reason why they became so powerful. I am extremely lucky to receive their help, right?

Because you saw it. When Yukino-senpai ran away with me on her back, Amaki-san wanted to ask for help from the senior, but was ruthlessly kicked away. He and I are both strangers to you, but you chose me.

The captain said this to me probably because he wanted to get closer to me. No one has ever touched my head before. Although it's embarrassing, I don't hate it.

I know that I have been recognized by the captain. From now on, the captain will treat me sincerely because I have integrated into your group, right? The captain and Yukino-senpai are the same. Without their efforts, I would have died in that horrible place. So I have been deeply moved by you. I must prove myself to you in the days to come...

"Okay, come here, I'm just not good at smiling." Kitahara Sora shifted his gaze from the two light balls to Komuro Takashi and Goda Takeo. They had repaired their bodies. When a member fell into a coma or unconscious state, the observer would automatically repair themselves after they returned, but when they were awake, they needed to actively communicate with Him.
