Mephisto's figure gradually shrank, revealing his sinful face on the ground.
The annoying reporter from Hiruchuan still looks like a gangster, and his annoying eyes have not changed, but when you get close to him, you can feel an inexplicable coldness.
"It's really, very similar to the me before..." Thinking of his past self, he suddenly had a headache.
My old self...my old self...what kind of person was...
He covered his head and looked a little in pain.
"Ah, forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore." He looked up and saw that the clouds in the sky were slightly fluctuating, then he turned and left.
"Haha, Lord Zaki failed. I'm afraid there will be no good fruits to eat in the past few days."
"Next time...remember to be careful..."
He glanced back at Tian Maolei, and then disappeared into the darkness...
Opening his eyes, Tian Maolei saw his own painful experience.
Originally returning home happily, he was attacked by alien beasts and was rescued by a mysterious giant named Nexus. He was selected by him to become a fit person, but even his parents could not protect him...
After experiencing life and death, I am still so weak. If it had not been for Mebius after so many chapters, I would have died long ago...
Injured again and again...defeated again and again...
Are you... really qualified to become Ultraman?
Because breaking up with Xiao Nai also caused Xiao Nai to lose energy... I am really... such a waste...
"Do you really think so?"
The familiar cold voice reached his ears. Tian Maolei turned around. The first thing that caught his eye was still the distinct Y-shaped energy core. Tian Maolei raised his head and looked into Nexus's eyes.
"Xiao Nai..."
"I have never regretted choosing you to be the fittest," Nexus said.
"At first, I chose you hastily because I ran out of energy and you were closest to me. I originally planned to leave you after I was almost recovered, but..."
Nexus pointed at Tian Maolei.
"After becoming one with you, I discovered your courage and fighting spirit, your pure heart, how you can still stand up and keep moving forward despite many setbacks, and never give up. Maybe, you just hope..."
"I... am... hope?"
…………
A bright light flashed, and Tian Maolei lost consciousness again...
It was already evening when I opened my eyes again. Looking around, I saw the orange sky at sunset, with Ryuu Aihara flying a fighter plane in front of him.
So... Mephistopheles didn't kill him...
"Are you awake?" Aihara Long turned around and was very happy to see Tian Maolei awake.
"Well..." Tian Maolei was still a little weak, and his forehead was still sweating.
Long felt his nose was a little sore and turned his head to concentrate on driving.
"Wait a moment, we will arrive at the Phoenix Nest soon, and a feast is waiting for us!!"
"Well..." Tian Maolei took out the Evolution Truster from his bag, looked at the faint light it gave off, and held it tightly.
"Thank you...Xiao Nai...Thank you for always being with me." A small tear shed from the corner of his eye.
The Evolved Truster shimmered and responded to him with a heartbeat.
Nexus was very worried about the current Tian Maolei. After so many battles, his body had already deteriorated day by day.
Are we going to be like the fittest people we used to be...
In this case, I won't be able to accompany him for too long... In that case... Then cherish the present moment...
Night falls, the sun finally returns to its home, and the moon comes to the sky for duty.
It’s great for a picnic outdoors.
Although the area around the Phoenix Nest was in a mess due to the war, this did not affect everyone's mood. Tomorrow is another day of hard work.
Tian Maolei got so excited when he saw the food that he wolfed it down without even saying a word.
"Haha... look at how bad he is." Sadaharu almost laughed.
"Shut up, Mr. Ikaruga!!" Jinna stuffed a hot dog into Sadaharu's mouth and blocked his mouth.
"&✘@#..." Sadaharu said a bunch of words that no one could understand.
No one needs him to translate. Everyone knows that at this time he will definitely say "Don't call me Ikaruga!"
Looking at the harmonious group, Musashi was also very happy.
These people are just like me and my friends! ! This is the powerful bond of friendship! !
He was chatting with Future about the situation in the Kingdom of Light. He was here to visit Zero as a guest. He would only be passing through Earth for two days. He wanted to know about the situation and road conditions in the Kingdom of Light in advance so as not to delay his trip.
"Speaking of which, this kid is really awesome!" Musashi looked at Tian Maolei approvingly.
Future nodded.
"These are not things he should bear at his age. He lost his parents and has been working hard with Nexus by his side. He has always moved forward bravely and thought about others..." Future said, feeling a little sore in his nose...
"What's wrong?" Musashi asked concerned.
"Oh, I'm sorry..." Mirai paused.
"He is so pitiful... Nexus is now low on energy, the remaining two gems are nowhere to be found, and the child's own health is getting worse and worse. Now he only has Nexus to rely on... …”
The emotional future is a little choked...
is that so……
Musashi looked at Tian Maolei, who was frantically feasting on delicious food, with a relaxed look on his face. But who knew that he might cry alone at night? ?
"Xiao Nai, do you want some??" Tian Maolei asked Nexus after opening a bag of potato chips.
"you eat."
"Hey, you're being treated like this, come on, come on, I know you like to eat."
"...Okay~_~" The evolution truster inhaled a few potato chips and savored them carefully.
"Hehe, you still pretend to be serious." Tian Maolei smiled, and then swallowed the entire bag of potato chips in one breath.
“Super delicious!!”
…
"What is the gem you are talking about?" Musashi asked Mirai, who was very interested in this magical natural stone.
"The earth has a strong vitality. After countless lives were born, in order to protect this place, the earth turned the power of nature into four different gems to protect different areas." Future explained.
"The Guardian of the Rock and the Roar of the Sand have been found. Now there are still two gems left - the torrent of water and the echo of wood. I don't know where they are..." Mirai sighed.
Musashi nodded thoughtfully.
"Perhaps I can help you find those two gems."
"Really!!?!" Long, who was eavesdropping on the side, asked in such excitement that he almost dropped the bread he had chewed countless times.
"Yeah!" Musashi nodded.
"Gauss's power will definitely help us!" He showed a sunny smile, bringing hope to everyone.
