Global Weirdness: People Survive in Ultra

[Chapter closed, at the end of the previous chapter.]

"According to our investigation at the scene, a fierce battle should have broken out after Jiro encountered that Mobile Ultraman."

"Experts speculate that the battle directly caused damage to the Ultraman mecha piloted by Hayata Shinjiro, rendering it unable to resist the invasion of the strange black fog."

When Dan Moroboshi said this, he was always paying attention to Reina's reaction. After all, he also knew the relationship between the two.

The concealment of this matter by the higher-ups is undoubtedly a disguised form of harm to Reina.

So, Moroboshi Dan stated, trying not to be subjective or speculative, "So, Jiro is likely to have rushed into the darkness like those who were infected with the fog disease."

"Why are you telling me such an important thing now?"

Reina was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly looked up and made eye contact with Dan Moroboshi.

She gritted her teeth, her pupils gleaming: "If I don't participate in today's mission, are you planning to keep it a secret?"

"terribly sorry."

"The higher-ups are still worried about the impact. After all, we all know that venturing into the black fog will result in nothing more than being infected and transformed into a monster." Moroboshi Dan bowed his head slightly. "Besides, if the city residents knew a mobile suit of armor was left lying around, they'd probably panic even more."

Reina clenched her fists in anger and punched Moroboshi Dan.

But this time, the latter grasped it firmly in his hand.

"I'm also very sorry about this, but the most important thing right now is to track down that infected person." Zhu Xingdan glanced at the end of the corridor. "We've been talking for a long time. If we don't catch up now, we'll be too late."

Catherine tried to smooth things over. She snatched Reina's hand from Moroboshi's palm and said, "This is all just speculation."

"Jiro has the light gene in his body, how could he be infected like this?" Catherine patted Reina, "Maybe he is recuperating somewhere right now."

Catherine knew that her words were not credible.

After all, it has been almost 5 days since Jiro disappeared, and even Jiro, who has the light gene, cannot stay in the wasteland shrouded by the strange black fog for long.

But sometimes people are willing to believe in miracles.

Reina didn't say anything, but just glared at Moroboshi Dan stubbornly.

Dan Moroboshi looked at his phone: "The infected person has already left the Kurt team's base."

"And according to information sent back by others, there are also infected people in other parts of the city tonight. There are probably about a dozen people in total."

Zhu Xingdan looked at Meng Yao and Catherine: "We have to speed up."

"Maybe we have to go into the wilderness tonight."

"Because of Jiro's disappearance, the higher-ups have begun to pay attention to those infected with the fog disease."

"People who are infected will rush into the black fog. If we follow them, we might be able to find Jiro."

Dan Moroboshi glanced at Rena, and after ignoring her rolling eyes, he decisively summoned a mecha and became Mobile Seven.

"Can you two follow us?"

Meng Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled, thinking to himself, "Who are you looking down on?" Then he and Catherine both transformed, becoming the size of normal humans.

Zhu Xing nodded, then walked into a room, opened the window and jumped out, blending into the night.

Meng Yao, Catherine and Ling Nai followed closely behind.

As the black fog covered the sky and the earth, the night seemed particularly dark. In order to save energy, most of the city was also in darkness, with only a few factories still operating with lights on.

The four of them shuttled through the deserted and dark streets.

Finally, they arrived at the outskirts of the city, and when they looked up, they could see the magnificent energy shield.

In order to cooperate with the actions of Zhu Xingdan and others, the city gate, which should have been closed at night, was slightly opened at this time.

And a sturdy figure has been waiting here for a long time.

The person waiting was Jack, who had summoned the mecha. His broad figure was almost as wide as half the city gate.

Seeing the crowd coming in the night, Jack turned his head slightly, pointed outside the city and said sullenly: "The infected have already left, this direction."

After Jack finished speaking, he turned his head slightly to look at Meng Yao and Catherine after they transformed.

"Is this Ultraman? Why does he look so skinny?" Jack looked up. "Want a chance for a fight?"

"Are you sure?" Meng Yao also raised his head in response.

Although he has transformed into Tiga at this moment, the muscles of his composite form are indeed not very strong.

"Alright, let's get moving." Moroboshi Dan glanced at Jack, who was joking around. "Be serious. You know the dangers of the black fog."

However, Meng Yao noticed that when Jack was speaking, Zhu Xingdan also glanced at him with a scrutinizing look.

It seems that this Mobile Seven is also quite curious about his own strength.

But now is not the time to worry about such things. Zhuxingdan drove the armor and headed out the door.

As they stepped into the darkness, a faint light curtain lit up around everyone's bodies, resisting the erosion of the black fog.

The wasteland was filled with surging darkness, like some kind of liquid. When people ran past, there was a whirring sound.

Zhu Xingdan raised his hand, signaling everyone to slow down.

In fact, Meng Yao and Catherine had already stopped without his reminder - they had already seen the infected people not far away.

They were running wildly, tearing off their clothes, and many parts of their bodies had been mutated.

But without exception, these people were running in one direction, as if something was attracting them in that direction.

The Gomora doll that lived on the earth suddenly began to shake violently. Meng Yao grabbed the doll and said, "Dadi, what's wrong?!"

[Meng Yao, look at that person!]

Does he look like Mizoroki?

When Meng Yao heard the name, he subconsciously looked in the direction indicated by the earth, and indeed discovered something unusual.

He was a man wearing a black robe, mixed in with the infected people.

Unlike other infected people with crazy behaviors and strange bodies, this man behaved very normally and did not look alienated at all.

He was hiding very well in the night.

But now Dadi still saw the clues, and Meng Yao also vaguely saw a familiar face when the hood swayed.

"Moryumu should be dead."

Meng Yao muttered to himself, "I saw with my own eyes that he was swallowed by the Proto-Beast into a vortex of flesh and blood. The vortex should have been blasted into particles by Zoffy and I."

"Even if Goroki hadn't been devoured by the Founding Beast, he should have died in that explosion."

"Why are you here?"

Catherine had heard Nan Xizi and Zhu Xingtuan mention this man, and knew what kind of trouble Goromu had caused Meng Yao: "Could it be that the reason this fog disease broke out in the city was because of Goromu's behind the chaos?"

Meng Yao and Catherine fell behind the team and talked secretly.

Zhu Xingdan and others had quietly drawn their weapons and were slowly approaching the group of infected people.

"Everyone is gathering here, maybe something big will turn up." Jack looked around, his fists clenched.

He had spent some time in the wilderness and knew that some guys contaminated by the black fog would be particularly difficult to deal with.

"But where is Jiro?" Reina searched for her boyfriend. "He doesn't seem to be here."

"Don't be anxious, just wait a little longer." Zhu Xingdan said.

However, Meng Yao suddenly noticed that Golumu, who had been mixed in with the infected people, had made some moves.

He began to attack, knocking out the infected one after another.

The infected person who was knocked unconscious by him immediately lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground. He dragged him behind a mound and hid him.

"Where did this person come from? He doesn't seem to be infected?" Zhu Xingdan immediately noticed the clue. "What is he doing?"

"He's sneaking around, and he doesn't look like a good character at first glance." Jack stood up straight. "We were the only ones sent by the higher-ups for this operation. This guy's whereabouts are unknown, so we should capture him first!"

"It will ruin our plan."

After he finished speaking, two thick streams of steam spurted out from behind his mecha, and he leaped high into the air, smashing towards Goromu.

Goromu pulled up his hood. He naturally saw Jack. He immediately stopped moving his hands, rolled on the ground, and dodged to the side.

boom!

Jack's imposing figure was like a mad gorilla, cracking the ground as he hammered. Goroki was also shaken by the shockwave, and his body rolled backward uncontrollably.

Zhu Xingdan stood with a knife in his hand. He looked at Jack and said, "How could this guy be so reckless!"

Then he glanced at the infected people in the distance. They didn't seem to be attracted by the noise of Jack's battle and were still running towards the depths of the wasteland.

"It seems like they do have some sort of purpose."

Zhu Xingdan drew his sword and stood up, but ignored Jack. Instead, he shouted to Lingna: "Let's continue chasing him and let him fight here by himself."

Lingnai turned around and looked at Meng Yao and Catherine at the back of the team: "Do you want to join us?"

"We won't come." The two looked at each other, and then Meng Yao said, "We will come to find you after Jack has dealt with the matter here."

"And since we're with Jack, we can look out for each other."

Meng Yao made up an excuse and sent Lingna away.

Compared with the purpose of rushing into the wilderness to find infected people, Meng Yao still felt that Golumu was more important.

Reina didn't say anything more and quickly followed Moroboshi.

Now, only Meng Yao, Jack and four others are left on this plain.

Meng Yao joined the battlefield, but he only saw Golumu dodging Jack's heavy punches left and right, and did not fight with him.

Moreover, he did not transform into Dark Mephistopheles.

"Gulumu, how come you're still alive?" Meng Yao shouted, "You're so hard to kill!"

"Who are you??"

Unexpectedly, facing Meng Yao's ridicule, Gorumu looked stunned.

bump!

But it was precisely because of this moment of distraction that Goromu was hit directly on the chin by Jack's heavy punch.

Goromu coughed up a mouthful of blood and his body flew backwards.

"You're such a tough guy," Jack gasped. "But you can actually withstand my punch with your body. You must not be human, right?"

Goromu got up from the ground, and the black robe he was wearing had been completely shattered into strips.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took off the cloth strips on his body: "What are you talking about? Shouldn't I be human?"

"And you, who are you? Have we met before?" Goromu stared intently at Meng Yao, "Gorumu...Gorumu...Is this my name?"

Meng Yao: ???

Catherine came to Meng Yao's side and asked softly, "Gulumu—is he losing his memory?"

"Such a coincidence? Amnesia again?" Meng Yao frowned. "No, there's no such coincidence. And even if he has amnesia, it doesn't explain why he's still alive."

"Why did he appear in this parallel world? You know, we used the Space-Time Armor to travel through the long river of time and space to get here."

Meng Yao clenched his fingers into fists, his body turned into a stream of light, and his feet even stepped out a large hole in the ground with a diameter of more than ten meters.

The power and speed of this explosion were so great that even Jack, who was wearing a mecha, was knocked back.

Jack steadied himself after swaying: "Is this... the power of Ultraman?!"

Meng Yao, on the other hand, had already charged towards Golumu: "Try pretending again! I don't believe such a coincidence could happen!"

But facing Meng Yao's heavy punch, Goromu, who had not transformed, seemed unable to react.

He could only barely catch a blurry shadow on his retina.

The fist blew in his face, and Goroki subconsciously raised his hand to block it in front of him.

But the expected fist did not land on him as expected. Gorumu opened his eyes in confusion, and found that Meng Yao had retracted his fist and stood in front of him.

"You're not even trying to hide, are you really losing your memory?"

Meng Yao's eyes were complicated. It seemed that Gorumu had really lost his memory.

After all, Meng Yao had just delivered that punch in the form of an Ultraman. If he hadn't transformed into Mephisto, Goroki would have had only one outcome: death.

Even if it's a disguise, there's no need to disguise it to this extent, right?

"I really have amnesia. I can't remember anything."

Goromu didn't know that he had just been to the gates of hell, but the pressure brought to him by Meng Yao's punch was still accumulating in his heart.

Mizoroki was breathing heavily, sweat pouring down his face. "You can call out my name, which means you knew me before."

"Are you my family? Or a friend?" Goromu and Meng Yao looked at each other. "Can you tell me about my past?"

"Family? Huh."

Meng Yao raised his lips and said, "If I were really your family, I would definitely use the Blood Skull Gu on you."

As he said that, Meng Yao actually kicked Goulumu.

The kick was well-timed. It didn't break Go Lumu's leg, but it also caused him just enough pain.

Goroki howled, covering his thigh.

Catherine hurried over and grabbed Meng Yao's arm: "Be gentle, don't kill him. Although Goromu has lost his memory, he might still be of some use."

"Do I look so reckless?" Meng Yao blew out a breath of air from his nose. "But this kick still wasn't enough to vent my anger."

He recalled his experiences in the cultivation city and the virtual world.

Jack walked up with heavy steps. Meng Yao's punch just now really frightened him, so he no longer had the desire to fight.

"You know him?" Jack asked. "Any grudge?"
