Monster Gourmet of Ultra World

Chapter 108 Darkness
"You specifically called me to the rooftop to meet you. Have you been working undercover recently?"

Zhen Mu came to the rooftop of the hospital, where he saw Ji Yajun, who was wearing a leather jacket and had a face full of bitterness and hatred.

Facing Zhen Mu's teasing, Ji Yajun did not joke with Zhen Mu, but turned around and looked into Zhen Mu's eyes.

"Is it really okay for you to do this?" Ji Yajun asked, obviously knowing what Zhen Mu had done.

"What's wrong with that? At least, Lizi survived, and the darkness in Kotoko disappeared, right?"

Zhen Mu folded his hands, as if trying to be stubborn, but his eyes involuntarily looked away.

After staring at Zhen Mu for a while, Ji Yajun had probably figured out what Zhen Mu was thinking.

He could not accept such practices and facts, but he could do nothing about it.

"If this continues, Kotobuki will find out sooner or later that Riko has turned into a vegetable."

Hearing this, Zhen Mu stopped talking.

That's right, even after defeating Faust, Lizi was not truly saved.

After eliminating Faust's consciousness, Zhen Mu discovered this problem.

His injuries have almost recovered and there are no fatal injuries.

But for unknown reasons, Lizi couldn't wake up from her sleep.

There was no other choice, Zhen Mu could only send Lizi to the hospital and finally came to a conclusion.

Lizi became a vegetable.

If you are lucky, you might be able to wake up, but the possibility of waking up is very slim.

When Zhen Mu heard the news just now, he also expressed disbelief.

Obviously the biggest threat, Faust, has been eliminated, so why is this happening?
Later, after discussing and studying with Guangmo, Zhen Mu also came to a conclusion.

Faust's power is too strong for a human like Lizi.

The power of the dark demon has exceeded the limits of her control.

The result of being unable to fight against this power was that Lizi fell into an endless sleep.

If she wants to wake up, she can only wait until later when Lizi can control Faust's power.

But this is almost impossible.

Even Faust cannot control the runaway dark power, let alone Lizi.

That's why Himeya Jun said that just now.

Lizi's condition now is almost equivalent to lying in bed conscious.

Able to sense the outside world, but unable to move or control the body.

This kind of despair that makes the body a cage, this kind of suffocation with no future in sight.

I believe that it won’t be long before Lizi will have a mental breakdown.

If Kotobuki realized that Lizi was living in such pain, he would definitely be in pain too.

"I'll find a way to solve it." This was the only answer Zhen Mu could give.

"...This is not like you." Ji Yajun stared into Zhen Mu's eyes.

Now, in Zhen Mu's eyes, Ji Yajun can't see the darkness.

Similarly, the light we once had is no longer visible.

He didn't understand what Zhen Mu had experienced and why he took the issue of life and death so seriously.

In the past, Zhen Mu would never show mercy to ordinary alien beasts.

It is the same even if the alien beast is a human alien beast that lives in a human corpse.

But now, in Ji Yajun's eyes, Zhen Mu began to be bound by the so-called life and death.

In other words, Zhen Mu wants to control life and death.

This is not a good sign. If you are not careful, you will be deeply trapped in it and unable to extricate yourself.

"You need to rest."

"I know my condition better than you." Zhen Mu didn't care about Ji Yajun's words.

"I'm fine. I'm used to this kind of thing." Zhen Mu shook his head and changed the subject.

"you……"

"Behind Faust, there is an even more powerful guy. You should have noticed this, right?"

Zhen Mu walked to the edge of the rooftop and leaned lazily on the railing.

Ji Yajun didn't say anything, just nodded silently.

He hadn't come into contact with the guy behind him yet, but he was already aware of his presence.

Lizi was just a puppet, a victim of the tragedy created by that guy. Himeya Jun had already realized it when he first fought Faust.

Later he kept looking for opportunities and tried to lure that guy out, but unfortunately he failed.

That guy was much more cautious than he thought.

Before he became dark, he might have been a very professional fighter.

In his impression, there is someone who can have such professional qualities and can also come into contact with alien beasts.

There are only the members of the Night Raid Team.

"That guy's name is Goroki. He was the previous vice-captain of the Night Raid Team a year ago."

Sure enough, Ji Yajun confirmed his guess from Zhen Mu's mouth.

"really……"

"As expected? You, you have already guessed it." Zhen Mu was a little surprised by this.

"Except for the Night Raid Team, I can't think of anyone else who has such professional qualities." Ji Yajun said truthfully.

This is indeed the standard by which he judges.

However, he didn't know much about the Night Raid Team.

Apart from Gu Men, he had only seen one crazy woman who went mad and wanted to kill people when she saw him.

"You probably don't know this, but that guy almost became an Adaptable Person."

"Really?" Upon learning about this, Himeya Jun's expression was unexpectedly calm.

Strictly speaking, all human beings in the world are actually candidates for fitness.

However, in front of the ruins, almost everyone felt fear and turned away.

Even Himeya Jun was the same, he also thought about turning around and leaving.

At that time, Sera appeared, and under Sera's guidance, Himeya Jun finally walked into the ruins.

In that ruins, Jun Himeya became the second fit person after Maki, and also defeated the first alien beast there.

From then on, his journey as Ultraman to fight against alien beasts began.

In such a world, it is not surprising to see a few people who almost become fit.

"Also, don't you plan to go back and recover from your injury?" Zhen Mu glanced at Ji Yajun who was standing aside.

Even Zhen Mu could see that Ji Yajun's injuries were very serious.

It was obvious that he was at a disadvantage in the previous battle with Faust.

At a time like this, Himeya Jun should stay in the Stone Wings to recover.

Otherwise, no one can guarantee whether or not alien beasts will appear before he recovers.

"I……"

"Don't worry, now that I know the identity of that guy, I won't be bewitched by anyone." Zhen Mu said.

……

"Eh? A vegetable?"

On the other side, Gu Men learned about Lizi's current condition from the doctor.

"Yes, the patient's condition is not optimistic now." The doctor nodded and pointed at the screen, "Look here."

"Although she is in a coma, her brain waves are very active, which means she is actually awake now."

"Awake state?" Gu Men frowned.

"Well, this doesn't mean it's a good thing. It means that the patient will be unable to control his body while awake. It's like his soul is locked up, and he will feel endless despair and loneliness."

"In this way, even if the patient wakes up one day, his spirit will be greatly damaged."

Doctors also find this problem difficult.

In all his years of practicing medicine, this was the first time he had encountered such a strange situation.

"Why is this happening..." Upon hearing the despair that Lizi was currently suffering from, Komon fell silent.

I clenched my fists, feeling indescribable regret and remorse in my heart.

Why, why does Lizi have to encounter this kind of thing!

Why, why did she have to go through all these tragedies!

Gu Men's heart was stuck in a deadlock that he couldn't get out of.

It was precisely because of this deadlock that the darkness, which no one was aware of, took advantage of the opportunity to sneak in.
