"I strongly suggest that you two return to your own homes to rest." Gongsun Ce said sincerely, "I feel very uncomfortable for you to make Mr. Gongsun like this."
The time was nine o'clock at night, and the location was Gongsun Ce's home. The participants were a gray-haired young man sitting neatly on the sofa, and a close friend who moved two stools to monitor him. The serious eyes of his friends made Gongsun Ce feel extremely nervous. He continued to try to persuade him: "This is really not a special situation for me..."
"Ace, sit there obediently and don't talk."
"okay."
Gongsun Ce shut his mouth and succumbed to the neighbor's oppressive eyes.
Shigurei was the first to ask about the details: "Qin Qianbai, who are the two people who fought with Gongsun?"
"Shigure-kun, remember the commotion at the end of February."
The young man in a suit nodded silently.
The battle with Deathwing was the most thrilling moment of his life. Caldesia was just a hair away from being killed by the Skeleton Head's ability... Every time he thought about this, his heart felt as nervous as if it was being held in a hand.
"The Wings of Death led by Bonehead were the strongest superpower organization in the Sky City three years ago." Qin Qianbai looked out the window, as if remembering the past.
"The reason is very simple. Other organizations only have at most one person with the most dangerous superpowers, but Deathwing has two. The leader, 'Skeleton Head' John Garcia, and his deputy, 'Predator' Ba German Ives.”
"No wonder the Death Wing's sphere of influence is two wings." Shigurei suddenly understood.
In the battle between superpowers and impermanent magicians, the strategic significance of high-end combat power is far greater than that of ordinary combatants. Top combat powers like Gongsun Ce and Caldesia could easily defeat a thousand with one horse, and even ordinary manifestation magicians would hardly be their opponents.
Therefore, a superpower organization must be a group formed around "the strongest combat power". Whichever side has more high-end combat power will have stronger overall strength. This is an iron rule that everyone can understand, which was formed in the ability battle environment of the Sky City.
"Badman Ives is a despicable man. Three years ago, he betrayed the Skeleton Head and caused a series of commotions with Aurus... Therefore, Atze and I both hate them."
Shigurei thought for a moment and understood immediately.
"It was that time. When I first arrived in the Sky Capital, I saw the first chapter of the strange story of the devil, where the devil fights three major organizations alone..."
Gongsun Ce, who had been quiet all this time, finally couldn't stand it any longer: "What the hell is this strange story about demons?!"
"It's the second season of a long series posted on the forum." Shigure Reiichi said, "The name of the first season is Heroes of the Sky."
"This is unreasonable!" Gongsun Ce slapped his thigh angrily, "Why didn't you ask me to write the Legend of Heroes of the Sky?!"
Is the focus actually here?
winter. The young man who spoke without authorization was knocked lightly by his neighbor. Gongsun Ce fell down on the sofa, covered his forehead and sighed.
"I felt sick all over as soon as I saw those two people. Orus and Badman are definitely planning something again, and that weird guy who seems to be a psychic... Damn it, I have a bad feeling!"
Reiichi Shigure keenly captured his friend's words. He frowned and asked: "Gongsun, do you think that person is a person with super powers?"
"should be……"
All Gongsun Ce could remember was the vague warning left by that man, but the feeling he felt when he saw him was undeniable. If he can't even recognize this, then all his ten years of combat experience have been wasted.
Come and try it quickly. 】
Gongsun Ce pushed up his glasses and said with great conviction: "It's true, that person is definitely a person with super powers."
"I understand, Gongsun. Don't think about this matter for now. The most important thing now is to ensure that your condition is normal." Shigurei said firmly, "Before you return to normal, we will help you with any trivial matters. solve."
Gongsun Ce's eyes widened, and he quickly turned around to defend himself: "Don't get me wrong, Miss! Although Shiyu-kun's tone is exaggerated, it's nothing—"
"Look, look, this is a helpless expression." Qin Qianbai looked into his eyes, "You can't even take Badman's dirty tricks, are you still trying to say 'I'm fine'? ?”
Gongsun Ce said with a guilty conscience: "I'm really fine, I'm just a little sleepy..."
"Just hold on tonight." Shigure Reiichi's smile looked as scary as a devil at this moment, "Do you have any good ideas, Gongsun?"
Gongsun Ce rolled his eyes and said, "We can play adult gal games on the TV in the living room!"
"Good idea, please, Qin Qianbai."
"Ace's computer is here...ah, I changed the password." Qin Qianbai looked at the neighbor's pocket, "Qiluo, go."
"Here it comes~" Gongsun Ce's cell phone made a happy sound, "I'll go get Caldesia here too~"
"No, three of you!
Gongsun Ce screamed, "I was wrong!" Watch sitcoms, let’s watch sitcoms, shall we! "

"?~"
The steaming water mist molded the mirror, and two shadows, one large and one small, were vaguely reflected on the hazy mirror. Water droplets fell on the woman's smooth back, and the warmth made her skin appear a coquettish red.
A small hand closed the shower, worked the shampoo into foam, and applied it to the woman's gray-blue hair.
Ayane hummed while rubbing bubbles on her friend's head.
"Maho-chan, girls look better with long hair~"
"Short hair is very convenient," the doctor said, "and it suits me better."
For Ayane, who has the figure of an elementary school student, it is difficult to wash the hair of her 22-year-old friend. Even if the doctor was sitting on a stool, she had to stand on tiptoes to reach the doctor's head.
"Phew. Phew. So boring!" Ayane got tired of washing her hair halfway and applied the shampoo on the doctor's body. "It's so troublesome to wash. When did the little Maho grow so big!"
Obviously, half a minute ago I was saying that long hair is good.
"I haven't had any growth since high school."
"Liar~"
Ayane, who was so thin, was so strong that she put her hands through the doctor's armpits. She clasped her hands and said with certainty: "It's definitely getting bigger!"
The doctor was not angry, nor was he shy. He just said helplessly: "The figure is meaningless to me, Ayane."
The girl's flat chest pressed against her back, and her arms wrapped around her neck.
"Yes, yes, no matter how much you change with your abilities, you have to change back to your original appearance. Otherwise, Ayane won't be able to recognize Maho-chan!" Ayane giggled, "I remember the past!"
The doctor closed his eyes and whispered: "...Ah."
"At that time, Maho-chan was still the same age as Ayane. We all worked hard together and encouraged each other to spend every day. It's very happy to think about it now~"
The ferocious adults and the crying children. Miserable wails and crazy shouts. Blood, fire, corpses...
The crazy laughter sounded under that terrifying sky.
The old friend's words brought back memories that had been deliberately forgotten, and the doctor's voice trembled slightly.
"Ayane, stop talking."
"Oh? Okay." The girl's voice sounded regretful, and she turned to another topic, "How have you been lately?"
The doctor was silent for a while before speaking.
"Still the same as before. Work, research, accumulate wealth and connections bit by bit... survive in this city."
"It's the same as always."
"Yeah, same as before."
Scenes from his childhood flashed before his eyes, and as the conversation progressed, they were replaced by scenes after arriving in the Sky Capital. She is no longer on Zero Island. This is the capital of the sky. Repeating these words in his heart, the doctor relaxed little by little.
"Where's Ayane? Zero Island was in chaos at the end of April...I'm worried about you."
"Ayane? You went to the banquet." Ayane said with a smile, "Dancing with the handsome blond guy!"
"...It's hard to imagine."
What kind of handsome man can naturally dance with the petite Ayane?
"Huh, huh...the difference in body shape is huge." The girl said ambiguously, "There are all kinds of people, and you can see all kinds of reactions. This is the interesting thing about the outside world."
"What's so good about a prison in the sky? Let me tell you, Maho-chan." The girl leaned close to her ear, "Should we go with Ayane?"
The doctor smiled bitterly in his mind.
Ayane was still too naive. She had no idea about the true power of the Sky City. She still thought that as long as she thought of a clever way, the two of them could leave here together. But he couldn't tell his friends the real information. Knowing too much will only put Ayane in danger.
Even with her special experience, Ayane is just an ordinary impermanent wizard now. She has no access to the real world, let alone those powerful forces.
"I like my life now, Ayane."
Therefore, the doctor just gently held his friend's hand.
"Ah, ah! Maho-chan, you are getting more and more boring!"
The best friend lamented as before.
"Okay then! Ayane will stay here for a few more days this time. How many days? How many weeks?" Ayane rubbed her cheek, "There is just enough time for Ayane to meet Maho-chan's friends. Are they?"
The doctor was stunned. Usually Ayane only came to stay for a short time and then left, or even only met her once. It was unprecedented to be able to spend such a long time with her.
She turned around and looked at her old friend with joy.
"Don't tear me down."
"Maho-chan is actually timid and afraid of loneliness! That's what Ayane will say when the time comes." The girl said with a smile.
"That's too much."
"Humph." Ayane narrowed her eyes and licked the corners of her mouth, "Who makes Ayane a bad boy?"

Late at night, the garden is alone.
An old animation from the 1990s was played on the big screen. The handsome male protagonist drove a giant robot and roared passionately, but because of the mute, he couldn't make any real noise. Instead, it looked as funny as a mime.
The intelligence dealer was sitting on the sofa, holding his mobile phone with his right hand and typing on the keyboard of his laptop with his left hand.
"What's wrong, Dr. Stane?... You do what you do and love what you do. We who sell information pay most attention to credibility. How could I lie to you? Look, I've sent you the information."
The information dealer hit the Enter key and said with a suppressed smile: "The photo was clearly taken. The person who went to your school's third affiliated laboratory to steal the invisibility cloak was really, ah, a young maid..."
"It's not unusual for a phantom thief to wear a maid outfit. After all, this is the City of Sky. ...Do you need me to help you continue your investigation? It will only take about ten minutes...just stop here? Okay, okay, I always respect the privacy of my customers. Yes. Then welcome to visit me next time. If you need anything, come to me anytime."
Mo Yuankai answered the phone and laughed a few times.
"Oh, it's really...what are the newcomers doing now? It's so funny."
He picked up his cell phone, intending to call Ah Ce again to ask about the situation, but gave up after thinking about it. Mr. Yan said that he is extremely nervous right now, and caring too much may put pressure on him, so it is better to just let things take their own course.
It's almost time to take a break. Just when I was thinking about this, the security system in the house sent a reminder. Someone came to visit. Mo Yuankai looked at the picture on the surveillance video and was surprised.
He turned off the TV, stood up from the sofa, and walked to the door. The heavy door opened automatically, and the visitor's strong figure was outlined in the dark night by the light.
He was wearing a black shirt, leather jacket and jeans, and there were traces of prosthetic modifications on the exposed backs of his hands. He was not as tall as Badman, but he was more intimidating than the blue-haired man. This aggressive momentum not only comes from his strong muscles and sinister eyes, but also from his face...
A terrifying face like a skeleton with no complete flesh visible.
Mo Yuankai looked at the visitor calmly and turned away: "Long time no see, John."
"Let's talk." Gushou's voice was still hoarse.
Mo Yuankai knew why. During the initial period when John was fighting alone, his face and vocal cords were destroyed by the enemy's abilities. The man who disfigured him has long since become a corpse, but the scars of the battle remain to this day.
"Okay, come in and sit down."
The intelligence dealer who was re-employed after retiring led the gang leader who had just been released from prison to sit down in the living room. The two have been hostile many times in the past, but now they don't feel such strong hostility. Maybe it's because they no longer have a position to fight...or maybe it's because they have known each other for a long time.
"I thought you would adapt to Unit 3 first." Mo Yuankai said, "Get the power first."
The skull did not directly respond to his words.
"It hasn't been long, I've thought a lot." Kushou said slowly, as if he was thinking, "I started thinking back ten years ago, until three years ago... Until now, I am still shrouded in fog. "
"I don't know much more than you do." Mo Yuankai said frankly, "You all know how bad my mentality was at that time, otherwise I wouldn't have forced Ate to stand up and do it himself."
The dead man chuckled.
"Let's talk," he repeated again.
Mo Yuankai took out two bottles of Coke from the refrigerator and threw one to his old enemy.
"Okay...then tell me what I know."
So they began to recount past events.
·
The next day, early morning, six o'clock.
Gongsun Ce's eyes were bloodshot. He was lying on a bed painted in ink, tightly bound by iron chains. The center of the bed and the quilt were covered with incantations, making him look like a living sacrifice in a strange ritual.
"I want to have a lucid dream, right?" Gongsun Ce said horrifiedly, "Aren't I going to be a sacrifice to some great god?"
"Which god wants you?" Yan Qi said with a smile, "Close your eyes and dream!"
"You have to tell me why you won't let me sleep, right?!"
"Tsk!" Yan Qi smacked his lips loudly and explained reluctantly, "This is clarity and healing! Why didn't you have an attack before? Because that person threw you into Shigurei's dream, relying on her The intensity of your mind has shared your erosion. It is also the same principle to let you dream and cure your illness now."
"Rely on drugs to adjust your state, and use long-term fatigue to suppress your mental intensity, so that your whole person can be integrated into the final node. It allows you to completely re-experience the dream of the node, and let the past you heal the present. This useless thing!"
This is the first time I've heard of such self-help.
Gongsun Ce closed his eyes helplessly: "Okay...how long do I have to sleep?"
"Let's start in one month." Yan Qi said casually.
"--ah???"
Snapped! The painter in black slapped Gongsun Ce unconscious with laughter. The super-powered person only had time to curse that bastard in his mind before falling into a dream unwillingly.
He knew what he was about to dream about.
The last node must be the incident where he met a certain girl at the end of the summer when he just returned from Superbia three years ago...
All the most dangerous superpowers are involved in a frenzied fight that sweeps across the city.
