"At the end of the day, we just have to do the best we can."
"Yes. The most a person can do is to do something within his ability."
"...It's really upsetting to see how you describe people."
"No, no, no! From a biological point of view, he and I are also human beings!"
"Well, since I usually fly in the air, I occasionally wonder, 'What is a human being?'"
"Being chased from unexpected places?!"
Haruma stopped talking, and even Natsumi said the same, seeming to be unexpectedly flustered, and Natsumi and I giggled.
He probably wanted to complain about that. Theon opened his mouth with an unhappy look on his face - and stopped suddenly with his mouth open.
Theon turned to the right as if he'd been bounced, and Haruma sensed what was happening.
"elder brother!"
"Did something happen?"
Suddenly he shouted to Ajit, who was walking not far ahead. He turned around and seemed to have noticed Xion's appearance immediately, and turned back this way with a serious look on his face.
During this period, Theon just stared in a certain direction and didn't even say a word.
"Theon, what happened?"
"...It's hard for me to answer what you're going to say, but I feel very unhappy in that regard."
Xion, who acted ambiguously, seemed to really not know the true nature of that feeling.
It was just an intuitive feeling of disgust, his expression and gaze were stern.
"Is it filthy? But, nothing like that has ever happened until now..."
Theon muttered for a while as if he was sorting out his thoughts, and then stared in the same direction as before, as if being bounced up.
At the same time, Chunma and others' communication terminals also received notifications of incoming calls.
"This is the Qiudu lightsaber. What happened?"
"This is the reaction of the invader. Please return to the Captain of 'Miststan' as soon as possible!"
"Where did it appear?"
"In the north of the city, it is the closest location to the city among the examples that have appeared so far! You can let 'Sniper' and 'Explosion' attack first!"
"It's okay, I'll leave it to you before I come back."
"good!"
Ajid and others cut off the communication and were about to run out, but before that, Xion grabbed Ajid's hand and put his face to the communication terminal.
"Excuse me! Can 'morning' be taken out already?"
"All the mobile armors carried by the 'Mist Legion' can attack at any time. What is that?"
"Then I will go directly to the scene! Let 'Asano' move in three minutes... Please tell the members of the technical class to leave the scene!"
Theon ignored the panicked Misty, cut off the communication, and immediately ran towards the north of the city - the direction that Theon was staring at just now.
"Easter!"
"It's just like what was said in the communication. It's very close! It would be terrible if it was invaded. I'll leave first!"
As if he didn't know what was stopping him, Xion jumped up in the next moment.
I don't know if he used a good identification and obstruction technique, but the surrounding civilians were not surprised, and they stayed away from Chunma and the others in the blink of an eye.
"Xiaojing, what should I do?"
"...Actually, the sooner we deal with it, the better. Let's go back to the Mist a second earlier."
Theon can call Alert to him even from far away.
Although it is a single player, it is not a live challenge to the invaders, so there should be no problem.
After tentatively reaching this conclusion, Haruma and the others rushed to the human military base where "Mist" was located.
"Aster" flew straight north over the city.
At night when the sun sets, the night view in front of you must be a romantic view, but unfortunately, now is not the time to enjoy the night view.
Although Misty didn't make it too specific in the communication, the place where she appeared this time was really close to the city.
If the invaders went directly to the city, they would arrive in less than ten minutes.
In other words, it was possible to make contact with the local troops who might have already attacked, as well as "Blast" and "Snipe" before the city was attacked.
"Come on! 'Assault'!"
At the junction of the city and the desert, space was distorted in front of Theon.
If you rush there without hesitation, Xion is already in the cockpit of "Arut" when you cross the twist.
In this way, the "attack" was accelerated and rushed below An Naixiong and the others.
"...Zhu Yue, did you also feel what happened just now?"
"Well, I don't know who he is either."
Before that cloud appeared, I felt something that I had never felt before.
The instinctive sense of crisis and disgust was very similar to that of facing intense filth, but it was something Theon had never felt before in his life so far.
If even Zhu Yue, who has lived longer than Xion, doesn't know his true identity, it may be a new phenomenon in this world.
"Is it related to the one on Amazon?"
"Who knows, it's useless to think about it now."
The emergence of powerful darkness occurred in the Amazon, and this time there was an aura of mystery.
What the two have in common is that they are both related to filth, and conversely, that is the only thing they have in common.
There is currently too little information to determine whether the two parties are related.
Just like Zhu Yue said, it's useless to think too much.
Push things related to the strange smell out of your mind and concentrate on the matter in front of you.
"By the way, Zhu Yue, are you good at exploring human aura?"
"Ah? Ah, is that what the eldest son of the lightsaber said?"
"As a devil, you should have a sharper nose than me, right?"
There are various views on ghosts, but they are often said to be monsters that attack and eat people.
In this case, I think he must have mastered the method of detecting people to some extent.
"Ah, what do you think? Anyway, I'll kill him as soon as I see him, so to be honest, it's not a big deal to find him."
"...Forget it. You are free while I'm fighting anyway, right? To pass the time, can you try to detect the human aura first?"
"Ah, please, please."
"To be honest, I have almost never used the power of ghosts, and you are eating my magic power for free, so I think it doesn't matter if you do these things for me."
Although Zhu Yue couldn't see her face, he was probably still snickering. She said something cheerfully, and Zhu Yue let out an "ah" in dissatisfaction.
Zhu Yue hesitated for a few seconds, but finally agreed to help and said "I'm sorry."
At the same time, "Assault" also arrived next to the group of ghosts.
A dozen medium-sized invaders can be seen below.
"This is Miststan. The troops behind will arrive in five minutes. Before that, please use 'Assault' to hold off the intruders."
"Haha, please tell him that if it's too late, I will take care of everything."
To Misty's disgruntled instructions, Theon responded with a joking tone and broke into the center of the group.
Holding the Dragon Sword in his left arm and the 'Light Schneider' in his right arm, he jumped around and defeated the intruders and others one after another.
"If this continues, it will really be over before the people behind come."
"Ah, Master Xion, can you come over here?"
"Huh? What happened suddenly?"
Zhu Yue asked her hesitantly, which was rare, and she tilted her head inwardly.
"By the way, didn't I tell you to look for someone's scent?"
"Well, I'll go look for it right away."
"I saw?"
"Already here..."
"……Woolen cloth?"
For a moment, he couldn't understand the meaning of Zhu Yue's words, and involuntarily made a sound that was not an instruction.
"So there are already terrorists."
"Where?!"
"From your perspective, there are several people on the left and right. When the sand rises, it will be obscured by this shadow."
As long as the approximate location is known, Theon can detect it. Indeed, as Zhu Yue said, he can sense the magic power of several people.
It could also be civilians, but they showed no signs of escaping and instead stayed there, which is also strange.
So Theon looked at the nearby intruder from his own perspective and tried to blow him toward the sand pile on the left.
Anion, who was neither hacked to death nor shot through, was certainly not dead.
As a result, the terrorists were driven out of the sand by the still-living medium-sized invaders.
"Really?!"
"Isn't there?"
"When did it start?!"
"I found it as soon as I looked for it... Didn't you already have it when you started fighting?"
