Hikigaya Hachiman is Kuuga?

Yukinoshita Haruno, who was standing by, crossed her arms over her chest and spoke half-seriously to the two of them.

"Sister~"

Now that their relationship has been restored, Yukinoshita Yukino no longer shows her previous resistance, but instead looks at the other party with a little shame and anger, obviously expressing her dissatisfaction with her sister's behavior of making fun of her.

"Okay, okay, Yui-chan, you should let go of Yukino-chan. Otherwise, if Hikigaya-kun waits too long, our training might double~"

Yukinoshita Haruno understood her sister's embarrassment and immediately tried to persuade her, and walked towards the virtual game console's research room with great self-awareness.

"Oh no, Xiaoxue, let's go. If the training is doubled now, I won't be able to bear it."

Yuigahama Yui seemed to have thought of something horrible, and shuddered all over. Then she pulled Yukinoshita Yukino, who also looked not very good, and hurriedly chased after them, "Sister Yangno, wait for us!"

The three of them quickly ran to the laboratory and saw Hikigaya Hachiman explaining something to Shikuma Rika who was sitting in front of the computer desk. The series of professional terms that sounded unclear made them feel dizzy. Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, they found a place to sit down and started chatting. After all, they were willing to start training later, as the recent training had made it more painful.

However, Hikigaya Hachiman, who had already noticed them coming in, said a few words to Shikuma Rika, whose eyes were shining, and then let the other party conduct research according to the ideas they had discussed, while he walked up to the three women.

"You are still too slow. Based on the strength of the enemies you faced, you should have been able to control the time within one minute. However, you almost finished them within two minutes. Now the angels appear more and more frequently. If you don't improve your combat speed quickly, you will regret it sooner or later."

The first words Hikigaya Hachiman said when he came over made the three girls turn pale. Based on their recent understanding of the boy, the training must be doubled.

As expected, he then said, "In view of your overtime behavior this time, the next training will be fighting against twenty laser robots under ten times the gravity. Their speed will be set at 80% of your level."

"You must get used to it within five minutes and destroy all the laser robots. Otherwise, my speed will be increased by 10%. If you exceed 10% of your speed and still fail to complete it, you will have to follow me to the back mountain and hide from my pursuit of my 30%-strength Pegasus crossbow until two in the morning."

"Gudong~"

After hearing Hikigaya Hachiman's arrangements, whether it was Yuigahama Yui, who always acted carefree and stupid, or Yukinoshita Yukino, who was always very calm, or Yukinoshita Haruno, who wore a mask to hide herself, they all swallowed in fear.

Although the laser robot fight was taking place in a virtual game space, one had to know that the five senses there were absolutely real and that Zhixiong Li Ke had paid for his life. So being hit by a laser would be really painful. Moreover, destroying twenty laser robots with 80% of their speed within five minutes under ten times gravity made them feel their heads buzzing, and they even felt the intense pain of being hit all over their bodies, as if the burning heat ran through their bodies. They couldn't help but shiver.

But they did not choose to escape. On the one hand, they asked Hikigaya Hachiman to train them the same way he trained himself. On the other hand, the angels appeared more and more frequently, which made them feel a sense of urgency for no reason. This feeling was exactly the same as when Touma tested them. They immediately understood that the critical moment would soon come, so they could not give up even if they could improve their strength a little bit.

Because, if they failed at that time, the young man in front of them would probably be very disappointed, and then he would have to bear everything on his own, making all their previous efforts in vain, and he would even be more likely to become the sinner of all mankind.

After all, no one knows how many times Douzhen will be tested. Will he be completely disappointed with mankind because of the failure of the test and start another world-destroying flood? In that case, Noah's Ark will never appear again.

Therefore, even if they are afraid of pain, they have no choice but to grit their teeth. The responsibility on their shoulders leaves them no choice.

"Ok."

After taking a few deep breaths, the three women stood up with determination and went to their respective virtual game consoles and sat down. After putting on their headbands, they entered the virtual game space. After Zhixiong Li Ke tapped the keyboard to enter the corresponding commands, they began to welcome the bombardment of twenty laser robots amid cries of pain.

Of course, in order to allow them a chance to pass, the laser robot's attack will have a specific action mode and a fixed attack interval. Otherwise, if the bombing continues, there will be almost no chance of them passing.

However, this is just a simple mode now, and it may not be the case in the future. You have to know that the hunter's attack is much faster and more fierce than that of the laser robot.

"Okay, Li Ke, the EMP device I just mentioned can be loaded into the motorcycle, right?"

Hikigaya Hachiman took a look at the performance of the three girls, and after judging the time they would need through combat thinking, he lowered his head and asked the girl who was doing the research next to him.

"Senior, the EMP device you mentioned only blocks the camera function and does not affect the functions of other electronic devices. As long as the radio wave signal when the camera function is operating is correct, then the science department can make it for you tomorrow. You can rest assured!"

Shikuma Rika patted her chest and promised confidently, then raised her head with a look of longing, blinked her eyes and looked up at Hikigaya Hachiman, who knew about this and paused before gently touching her head.

"Thank you for your hard work, Li Ke."

"Hehehe~ As long as I can help my seniors, I'm not afraid of hard work in science~"

"Senior, you can rely more on science."

Shikuma Riko narrowed her eyes, enjoying Hikigaya Hachiman's head pat. Soon after the other party's hand left, she asked softly: "Senior, did you specifically let Riko equip this device because of the forum about Unknow that Miura seniors mentioned?"

"Well, judging from the sudden increase in the frequency of angels appearing, and the fact that more and more people are taking photos of Yukinoshita and the others fighting, it is basically certain that this is part of the test."

"So, I think reducing the exposure of Yukinoshita and the others will be more or less helpful to them. In addition, with Officer Sato and Teacher Hiratsuka on the police side, as well as the attention of the Yukinoshita family, we can avoid fighting with the police to the greatest extent possible."

Hikigaya Hachiman's face was slightly gloomy. "Although Officer Sato can be let off the hook at that time, this will raise doubts about whether he is suitable to continue to equip the G3 armor. We can only treat Officer Sakaki's side as Touma's, so it is better to avoid contact with the police if possible."

"Plus, all the communications with the police are monitored by you. As long as you withhold the relevant information about Yukinoshita and the others, their next test will be much easier."

"Yes, it does minimize the physical damage, but the mental damage is still great. To be honest, the dark side of humans is really scary, Senior!"

Shixiong Rika opened a forum on his computer titled "The monster after the unconfirmed life form - Unkown, has God really given up on us humans?" Looking at the accusations and insults against the three girls Yukinoshita Yukino, he always felt that the word "God" in the title was so glaring.

However, she could choose to close her eyes no matter how blinding it was. However, the malice of human beings always lingered in her heart like a cold poisonous snake, and every time she thought of it, she felt cold all over as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"There's nothing we can do about it. This is the bad nature of human beings. Even if some people know that the other person is protecting them, what does it matter? Won't they still wantonly release the negative emotions accumulated in their hearts to the other person online?"

"So, let's be more open-minded. At least we have a way to vent our anger, so we don't become crazy and rush out to the street with a knife to chop anyone we see."

Hikigaya Hachiman, who has suffered cold violence for many years, is already well aware of the bad nature of human beings, but it is precisely because of the contrast that the brilliance of Hiratsuka Shizuka and others looks so dazzling. In addition, there is a balance in the world, otherwise everything would have been messed up long ago, so he will not complain too much.

After all, as long as people are true to their conscience and do their duty well, that is the greatest good deed, isn't it?

"Believe in them. They can still withstand this kind of malice from humans. Besides, Miura and the others are desperately helping them. Having such friends around is the greatest salvation for their souls."

"Well, I see."

As a lone genius girl, Zhixiong Li Ke naturally understood the bad nature of human beings, so she quickly left the forum, returned to the folder where she had done her previous research, and started a new round of research.

Hikigaya Hachiman walked to the virtual game console, put on the headband, entered the virtual game space, and began his own training.

Chapter 190: Yuigahama Yui's Test Begins

"Yui, are you okay? I feel like you've been very tired since the school trip."

Yuigahama Yui was eating her lunch box with her head down when she heard the concerned voice of her good friend Miura Yumiko.

She turned around and tried to muster up some energy and said, "Well, we told Xiaoqi that the training would be based on his level, but the result was..."

At this point, she sighed deeply, and said with a sense of dejection: "Sure enough, there is a huge gap between us. We have clearly shown some mercy, but we still always fail, so..."

Seeing her frustrated look, Miura Yumiko smiled and patted her shoulder. When she looked over, she smiled gently and said softly: "Yui, you don't have to push yourself so hard. Hikigaya-kun is Hikigaya-kun, and Yui is Yui. There are some things he can do that you can't, but there are also some things that only you can accomplish."

"Each of us is unique. If you keep forcing yourself, Yui won't be Yui anymore."

For some reason, Yuigahama Yui looked at Miura Yumiko who was patting her shoulder gently in front of her and found that she seemed to be emitting a maternal glow, which made her feel warm inside and wanted to throw herself into her arms and act coquettishly.

"Yui, Yumiko is right. If you keep forcing yourself, it will only make you less and less focused, and you won't be able to finish it even if you can."

Ebina Hime also advised.

"Well, I see."

After hearing what her two friends said, Yuigahama Yui felt much better.

[Yes, a small business is a small business. I have never thought about surpassing him. I can only help him share some of the burden. I'd better not put too much pressure on myself.]

[I just need to do what I can do.]

"Buzz buzz buzz~"

A familiar buzzing sound rang in her mind, and then the image of an angel about to kill someone emerged in Yuigahama Yui's mind.

She was a middle-aged woman who was holding shopping bags in both hands. Vegetables, fruits, meats, and children's toys could be vaguely seen in them. She was humming a cheerful tune and had a happy smile on her face. It was obvious that she had just returned from shopping and was preparing to make a hearty lunch to enjoy slowly with her family and to reward her own baby child.

It's just a pity that behind her there is a wolf angel holding a steel knife and making a prayer gesture, and its appearance proves that it is a big problem whether she can go back today.

The scene ended here, and Yuigahama Yui stood up suddenly from her seat, "I have something to do and I'll leave it to you, Yumiko, Hime."

"Ah, we get it. Be careful."

Yumiko Miura looked at Yuigahama Yui with a worried look on her face as she disappeared from her sight.

"Hey~ Yumiko, Hikigaya-kun didn't move."

"Ha~"

When she heard her friend's trembling voice, she quickly turned around and found that Hikigaya Hachiman was still lying on the table. She was smart and reacted quickly. She rushed to Hikigaya Hachiman with Ebina Hina and found that he was actually soundly asleep.

"Could this be?"

"I'll call Yukinoshita first and ask her. Yumiko, go over and ask Hayato-kun to call Haruno-senpai."

"Well, I see."

After responding, Yumiko Miura ran to Hayato Hayama under everyone's puzzled gaze. The latter, after seeing how things had just developed, obviously understood the current situation. He took out his mobile phone and started calling Yukinoshita Haruno, and stretched out his hand to signal the former to calm down.

"Dudududu~"

The notification tone of "the call was not connected" kept echoing in my ears, making Hayato Hayama's handsome face, which always gave people a refreshing feeling, look so gloomy and scary at this moment.

Miura Yumiko's expression also became panicked as his expression changed, and her pretty face turned pale.

"I called but couldn't get through."

As Hayato Hayama's low voice rang out, Miura Yumiko felt her legs lose strength and she couldn't help but fall backwards. She was quickly supported by Tobe Sho, who had been worried about them from the beginning.

"Yumiko, are you okay? And did something happen to Hayato-kun? You both look terrible."

"I'm sorry, we can't talk about this matter with the Ministry of Revenue."

"I see. But if we can help, please let me know. We are friends, right?"

"Well, I will."

"By the way, over there in Yukinoshita, we can go over there and take a look."

Yumiko Miura, who was being supported, seemed to have thought of something, broke away from Sho Tobe and rushed out of the classroom.

"Yumiko~"

Seeing her panicked look, Hayato Hayama and others chased after her. Hina Ebina also chased after her with her cell phone that was making calls but couldn't be connected. For a moment, all the classmates looked at the direction where the people at the top of the pyramid of the Xianzhuang Group who were behaving strangely left with puzzled expressions.

Not long after they left, Kawasaki Saki and Totsuka Ayaka came back to the classroom from outside, chatting and laughing. The former heard about the abnormal behavior of Hayama Hayato and others from a nearby classmate, and then she hurriedly looked at Hikigaya Hachiman who was sleeping on the table. She was almost becoming an Agito, and she could see that a faint layer of energy fluctuations was covering the other person. Knowing what was going on, she rushed out and ran towards International Class J where Yukinoshita Yukino was.

"Eh? Why did Kawasaki-san suddenly run out?"

Totsuka Ayaka blinked and looked at Kawasaki Saki who rushed out of the classroom. He didn't understand and didn't think too much about it. He just hummed a cheerful tune and went back to his seat. He took out his mobile phone and opened a forum about Unkown and watched it, making noises like "how scary" from time to time.

On the other side, when Miura Yumiko rushed to International Class J, she immediately found Yukinoshita Yukino sitting in her seat reading a book. Worried about her friend's safety, she didn't have the time to think about why she didn't answer the phone. Under the horrified gazes of her classmates, she rushed to Yukinoshita Yukino with a ferocious look and grabbed her shoulders with both hands.

"Why didn't you go over and help Yui?"

"…Miura-san, what do you mean…"

"Yumiko, calm down first. If you're like this, Yukinoshita-san won't be able to answer you!"

Hina Ebina reached out and pulled back her friend who had lost her mind due to panic, and began to comfort her.

On the other side, Hayato Hayama asked Yukinoshita who was thinking: "Yukinoshita, did you see anything with Yui just now?"

This incoherent question, coupled with Miura Yumiko's panicked expression just now, quickly made Yukinoshita Yukino understand something. She took out her cell phone from the drawer and said to them: "Don't worry too much, I'll call Shixiong now, she has Yui's location, I'll ask..."

Before she could finish her words, Yukinoshita Yukino felt a sudden and intense dizziness in her brain. Her will, which had become stronger after experiencing all kinds of hardships, had no resistance in front of it and was directly swallowed up and fell into darkness.

Hayato Hayama and others looked blankly at Yukinoshita Yukino, who was about to make a phone call just now but suddenly fell into a coma. Her cell phone slipped to the ground, but fortunately it was turned on and entered the interface of the contact named Shikuma-san.

Seeing this, Hina Ebina immediately picked up the phone and started making a call, while Hayato Hayama caught the girl who was about to fall to the ground, helped her up and put her on the table, and waited anxiously for the phone to be connected with Yumiko Miura.

"Hey, what's going on? It seems like something bad has happened."

Tobe Sho quietly asked Ooka and Ohkawa beside him, but the latter two had no idea about the situation just like him, so they could only shake their heads to indicate that they didn't know.

"Hello~ Is this Shio-kun? I'm Hikigaya-kun's classmate. Can you please check Yui's position now?"

"...Okay, wait a moment."

Shikuma Rika on the other end of the phone was no fool either. She had already understood the seriousness of the situation from Ebina Hina's brief words. She didn't ask too many questions and directly operated the computer to start looking for Yuigahama Yui's location through the positioning system on Gills's raider. However, she looked at the big red-bordered "Error!" on the screen and her face turned pale instantly.

"Um, Shixiong-san, could it be?"

The speakerphone on the phone called Shikuma Rika back to her senses. She sighed deeply, "Yes, just as you thought, I can't find her. Senior and Yukinoshita should be in the same situation as me, unable to be rescued, right?"

Hearing the affirmative reply from the phone, Ebina Hina's pale hands trembled violently, but she knew very well that she had to stay calm in the current situation. After taking a few deep breaths, she said: "Yes, Hikigaya-kun is asleep, and Yukinoshita-san is in a coma. Do you have any other solutions?"

"I will use all the surveillance cameras to find her location. If I find her, I will send G3 out. Don't worry too much. Yuigahama has been training with her senior for so long, she will be fine."

"I'm going to hang up now. I'll let you know when there's news."

"Thank you so much, Shixiong-san."

"No, I'm helping ourselves too."

After she finished speaking, Hina Ebina heard the sound of the call being hung up. Facing Miura Yumiko's eyes that still held a hint of hope, she shook her head gloomily.

"How could this happen~"

Although Miura Yumiko had already guessed the desperate answer from her friend's performance and conversation just now, when she actually heard her friend's confirmation, she still felt a deep despair sweeping over her, and her legs went weak and she fell down again.

"Yumiko, don't be so nervous. We should trust Yui. She's so strong, she'll definitely be fine, right?"

Hayato Hayama quickly supported her and comforted her, but now even the comfort of the person she loved could not dispel the fear in the girl's heart. After all, what Yuigahama Yui was facing now was a test from the God of Creation, and this time all the means that could help were gone. It would be a lie to say that she was not worried.

However, Miura Yumiko was not such a weak woman after all. She barely stood up and thanked Hayama Hayato, then stood next to Ebina Hina and held her hands to ease the fear in their hearts.
