Across Ultra: Half Dream

Fujimiya, whose soul was still flying, suddenly felt his stomach churning. The urge to vomit had never been so strong. He quickly got out of the car and ran to the side to retch. "Ugh..."

Looking at Fujimiya who was pale and vomiting non-stop, Beidou Nanxing helplessly patted Fujimiya's back and said, "I'm sorry, Fourth Brother, I didn't know you couldn't bear it."

"You... ugh..." Fujimiya, who was about to speak, felt his stomach churning again.

Beidou Nanxing sighed and sent a beam of energy towards Fujimiya. After the light entered his body, Fujimiya felt much better immediately.

Fujimiya said in a gloomy tone, "Nanxing, have you passed the driving test?"

"No." The tone was as innocent as it could be, and he was very confident. "I'm not an adult, so I'm not allowed to take the exam."

Fujimiya felt a stomachache from the anger he felt. "You...are not an adult yet, you are not allowed to drive anymore!"

Beidou Nanxing decisively refused, "That won't work! You and Third Brother's training depends on it! I can't not drive, Fourth Brother, you'd better give up on this idea!"

Without waiting for Fujimiya to say anything, Beidou Nanxing lifted Fujimiya up, put him in his seat and fastened his seat belt, then drove back home at high speed while Fujimiya's soul was out of his body.

In Fujimiya's panic, they soon arrived home. As soon as the car stopped, Beidou Nanxing carried Fujimiya on his back again and walked into the house.

After placing Fujimiya on the sofa, Nanxing poured him a glass of water and asked with concern, "Fourth brother, are you okay?"

Fujimiya rolled his eyes at him weakly, and Nanxing chuckled twice, feeling a little embarrassed.

At this time, the doorbell rang. Nanxing ran to open the door. It turned out to be Youjin Sawano who lived on the mountainside.

As soon as You Jin came in, he saw Fujimiya, who looked pale, and asked worriedly, "What happened to Mr. Fujimiya? Is he sick?"

Nan Xing quickly explained, "It's okay, it's okay. Fourth brother got carsick from riding in my car."

You Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Nan Xing, you're such a fool! Drive slower. By the way, I came to you to ask if you're free this weekend? Let's go camping together!"

"Camping? Fourth brother, are you going?" Beidou Nanxing looked at Fujimiya.

Fujimiya nodded weakly and said, "Sure, I have nothing to do anyway. But, do you want to call me, Meng?"

"Third brother? Let me ask first. Sorry, Youjin, please wait a moment." Beidou Nanxing smiled apologetically.

You Jin smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, Xiao Nanxing, you contact him first."

Beidou Nanxing walked to the side and contacted Womeng. It took a while before the call was connected. "Moshimoshi, Third Brother... Um, nothing much... Just asking if you have time to go camping this weekend... Oh? Is that so... Okay, come over when you're free, and I'll send you the address then... Um, bye, you go ahead and get busy."

After finishing the call, Beidou Nanxing turned around and saw Fujimiya looking at him questioningly. He said with a smile, "Third brother said that he is investigating something these days and is a bit busy. He may not have time. However, if he has time, he will definitely come."

You Jin smiled and said, "Okay, that's settled. I'll drive over to pick you up in a few days."

"Okay, then I'll prepare some more food that day."

You Jin smiled from ear to ear. "Then I'll leave it to you, Xiao Nanxing. I'm leaving now. See you in two days."

"Okay, then I'll take you there." Beidou Nanxing stood up.

You Jin shook his head and said, "No need. I can go out by myself. You guys have a good rest." Then he went out without waiting for Beidou Nanxing to send him out.

"Fourth brother, you should take a good rest. You can't study in this state."

"..." Fujimiya twitched his lips and said in a deep voice, "Then who caused me to be in this state?"

"Um... hehe... well, fourth brother, I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest first... haha." With that, Beidou Nanxing ran away at the speed of light and returned to the room on the second floor.

Seeing Beidou Nanxing like this, Fujimiya shook his head helplessly and went back to his room to rest.

On the other side, Gamu was telling Yoshida what she had found. "Yoshida, there's a slight distortion in the magnetic field near POINT 226 N1."

Yoshida asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"I think it might be a coincidence..." I Meng said hesitantly, "The center of this place happens to be where Mr. Nagata currently lives."

"I know, I'll be there right away!"

After a while, Yoshida was on his way to Nagata's residence when he saw his childhood friend Shoji. He asked curiously, "What are you doing here?"

Shoji explained, "Oh, Mr. Nagata didn't come to work today, and he didn't ask for leave. I'm worried."

Yoshida nodded and said, "Okay, get in the car and let's go take a look together. I have something to investigate."

Then, the two of them set off together to Nagata's residence.

A moment later, the two arrived at Nagata's residence. After getting out of the car, Yoshida said, "Shoji, you don't have to come with me."

Shoji said angrily, "Don't say such things!"

Yoshida had no choice but to ask Shoji to follow. When they reached the door, Yoshida knocked and shouted, "Mr. Nagata! Mr. Nagata!"

"The door is not locked..." Zhuang Si reminded silently.

After entering, the two saw Nagata lying motionless on the floor. They panicked and hurried to wake him up.

Yoshida "Mr. Nagata!"

Zhuang Si: "Uncle, uncle! Wake up! Uncle! Uncle!"

Seeing no response, Yoshida hurried to check Nagata's body. After a moment, Yoshida breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, he just fell asleep."

Shoji said depressedly, "Huh?? Fell asleep??"

"Well, Shoji, bring the blanket over here." Just as the two were about to cover Nagata with the quilt, he woke up.

Nagata looked at them and said slowly, "I had a dream... I dreamed that Luke came to pick me up."

The two looked at Nagata in confusion "Ruke?"

Nagata sat up and smiled, "I...I'm going back to Uqbar."

Shoji squatted down helplessly, trying to wake Nagata up. "Old man, wake up! It's just a dream!"

But Nagata insisted, "That place really exists!" He picked up the landline phone nearby and handed it to Yoshida, wanting them to listen. "Listen! You can hear the wind blowing from Uqbar."

But Shoji saw that the phone line was clearly broken, and helplessly shook Nagata's body with his hands, "Alas, why are you still so stubborn! Old man, wake up! There is no such thing as Uqbar! There is no such place in the world!"

Yoshida, who was standing by, took the phone and put it to his ear helplessly, but was slapped in the face the next second.

Yoshida frowned in shock as he heard the sound of wind coming from the phone. He looked up at Shoji in disbelief, "Shoji...!"

As Shoji looked puzzled, Yoshida slowly put the phone close to his ear. The next moment, he was also shocked to hear the voice on the phone that clearly shouldn't have come out. "No... really..."

Nagata, who was standing aside, looked at the two people in disbelief with a smug smile on his face.

Just as Yoshida was still lost in thought, he suddenly heard some subtle noises coming from the window. He quickly turned his head and looked vigilantly at the shaking glass window.

Nagata looked at Yoshida's expression and turned to look. But his expression was very happy. "Luke!"

As soon as he finished shouting, the fragile glass window shattered, but no one was hurt.

Yoshida looked out the window in confusion, but saw the monster Luke in Nagata's mouth, and hurriedly notified XIG.

However, Nagata didn't care and ran out to look for Luke while the two of them were still not reacting.

The monster Luke in the distance seemed to have heard Nagata's cry and walked towards Nagata.

At this time, the Lightning Team, which had just arrived, rushed to stop them and launched a series of attacks on the monster Luke, but it was of no use.

Yoshida, searching for Nagata on the ground, thought as he ran, "If this monster came from Uqbar, then who is Nagata..."

The Lightning Team in the sky looked at the monster in confusion. Not only did it not harm humans, but it also did not destroy human buildings. They wondered whether they should take action.

At this moment, I dreamed of transforming into Gaia and tried desperately to stop the monster, but the monster remained unmoved.

I looked at the monster with a headache in my dream. Just when I was trying to gather my energy to destroy the monster, I heard bursts of horn sounds.

I looked up in confusion, only to see a small island suddenly appear in the sky. Without thinking too much, I turned to look at the monster, and was surprised to find that the figure of the monster Luke was slowly disappearing.

After the monster Luke disappeared, the island in the sky also disappeared, leaving only Wo Meng. There was nothing Wo Meng could do, so he could only fly away with a confused look on his face.

When the monsters and the island disappeared, Yoshida and Shoji suddenly discovered that Nagata, who was originally in the tower, was also missing.

Zhuang Si stared at the sky blankly and murmured, "Old man... where have you been..."

After a while, Imu and Yoshida came to Nagata's hometown to investigate, but found nothing.

Gamu urged, "Yoshida! We should go!"

Hearing my cry in my dream, Yoshida turned around and was about to leave, but then he came back, as if he had discovered something.

Yoshida slowly walked into Nagata's room, walked to the wall, and used his hands to push away the spider webs and objects blocking the painting.

When the painting was fully revealed to Yoshida, he looked at it in shock. "Is this... the Uqbar... calendar?"

I saw that the scene in the painting was exactly the same as the island and the monster Luke I had just seen.

On the way back, Yoshida told me what he had just seen. "Perhaps, Nagata regarded the scenery on the calendar he saw as a child as his hometown. He is just a bit strange."

Iyuu frowned and said, "But after the monster and the island disappeared, Nagata never showed up again. That doesn't make sense."

The two people who couldn't figure it out fell silent.

After a while, I dreamt, "Perhaps, there really is a place called Uqbar, and Nagata has returned to Uqbar."

Yoshida sighed, "This man, he needs Uqbar..."

I dreamed, "Ah? Do you need Uqbar?"

"My distant hometown, buried deep in my heart..." After saying this, Yoshida stopped talking and quietly looked at the scenery on the road...

The next afternoon, I Meng wanted to go out to Beidou Nanxing, but was stopped by Dunzi.

After a while, I looked at the flowers in my hand with a headache, and stood at the door of Kajio's room, hesitating, "This is for you... No... This, please accept it!"
