Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

By the time we got there, the dust had already settled.

Thirty-eight people were missing, 289 were injured, and none died.

Although there is no death, the fate of those missing people is still unknown.

The blocked department store prohibited anyone from entering because of concerns that the store might collapse. The Tucker team waited not far from the building for more than 20 minutes, and only went in after two or three police officers came out of the building.

The police investigated whether the foundation was solid and whether the load-bearing structure could still function effectively. Due to the special nature of the work, only a small number of police officers carried out this operation. Later, the Tucker Team and professionals entered to conduct a comprehensive investigation.

As soon as you step in, the most noticeable thing is that the tiled floor of the building is cracked layer by layer. There are huge holes like abysses all over the ground. No one knows how deep they are, but it is very dark and you can't see what's inside at all, so you feel that the hole seems to be very deep.

Walking in the middle may even feel like walking on a narrow path with slopes on both sides, and you may lose your footing and fall into it.

"Those holes are..."

"According to eyewitness testimony, the hole suddenly appeared, and then dust came out of it. All the missing people were invisibly sucked into the hole. Although it is not confirmed, it seems that most of them are women. Moreover, the suction force is not absolute. Some people who were close to it only fell because of the slight vibration of the ground and were not sucked in. This is a selective and purposeful hunting method."

Team member Zhen calmly judged that although he did not investigate the scene immediately, it was still possible to obtain fragments of the fight from the survivors.

"Although monsters may have this level of intelligence, with such delicate means, I tend to think that it is a super beast hunting humans."

"Do you think it's hunting?"

Captain Long asked;

"The first time it appeared, it used its body to wreak havoc on the surroundings. But this time, even the building didn't collapse, and it used holes to suck humans in. It reminded me of the way insect-catching plants use scent to lure prey. It doesn't look like it's wreaking havoc, but rather like it wants to fill its stomach after wreaking havoc.

"Will the invading beasts act just to fill their stomachs?"

"The first time, maybe it will just fill my stomach, but if it keeps going, I'll eat up all of Tokyo."

It's always creepy to hear words coming out of the mouths of real team members.

Are all this person's speculations somehow too cold and harsh?

I don't know what the population of Tokyo is, but it's at least over 10 million. If it's not just Tokyo, the number will definitely be even higher, maybe even doubled. And this time there are only more than 30 people causing harm. Are they going to use more than 30 people to continuously devour the entire Tokyo...?

"Sir."

During the exploration, a man came over with something similar to a petri dish in his hand, on which there was a layer of white sand-like substance mixed with soil.

“Some discoveries.”

As he spoke, he lifted the thing in his hand slightly so that the members of the Tucker team could see it more clearly. Then he took the lighter in his other hand and lit it with a click. The flame instantly ignited the sand, gray and soil in the dish, rising up a transparent blue-white flame, and gas was emitted as the flame moved.

"This is formic acid, a large amount of formic acid, commonly known as formic acid. We found a lot of this stuff at the scene. If the number is true, then there should be at least 70 ant nests at the scene, which can corrode steel bars, cement and soil. Further tests are needed for details, but in summary, if there is too much formic acid, it can cause the foundation of the building to sink."

"But to be honest, I think the possibility of an ant nest is very small. This thing is only similar in nature. In fact, the effect is many times better than formic acid. This is probably not a normal substance."

The man explained clearly, and although he didn't finish his words, Beidou understood what the man meant after thinking about it.

There was no ant nest at the scene. Combined with the previous underground tentacle attack, this was definitely not a monster, but a super beast like an ant.

"A giant ant."

"This is not just difficult to deal with."

Team member Zhen added a sentence after Captain Long blurted out.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please go back to work."

"Yes."

The man left first, and Captain Long looked at the team members and spoke first;

"Whether it's underground or on the seabed, once the super beasts appear in these two places, it will be difficult to carry out precise strikes. Too much firepower cannot be used, and too little firepower will not be effective. If we can determine the location and lead them out of the ground, it's fine. But if the enemy is determined to stay underground in a big city, then it can almost be said that all military operations are blocked."

Fighting in the city was a must, the losses were too great, and Beidou was unwilling to fight in the city. But if this allowed the super beasts to continue to run rampant, he was also unwilling to do so.

"Is there no way?"

"It's not that there is no way... but for now, there is really no way to easily counter the Ultra Beast."

The underground super beasts are relatively difficult to detect, not to mention that the enemy is not a real underground super beast, but a super beast from another dimension that is lurking underground.

Human technology is far from being able to make a different-dimensional radar. If the exact location is known, perhaps the most violent means can be used to force a breakthrough. Based on Beidou's experience, he has never had the experience of traveling through different dimensions with Nan Xizi after becoming Ace.

Although it was just a hunch, the giant should be able to do this. The question was, how could he catch that guy on the way through the different space and give him a guillotine...

Beidou's mind was full of one-hit-kill moves, but because that move was a forbidden technique, it was generally forbidden to use.

If used improperly, the powerful force is said to be harmful, which makes Beidou feel a little regretful. If the battle can be ended quickly, who would want to rush in for a melee?

After this day, the citizens of Tokyo felt that there were more construction sites around them and many places were cordoned off, but it was clearly neither a filming nor a crime had occurred.

While working, the workers stared in amazement at the construction site, where a large, unidentified black metal machine resembling something from a science fiction work was lurking underground. They sighed and said, "Times are changing so fast."

In the bustling streets of Tokyo, a tall and beautiful young woman is walking on the street. She is carrying a handbag and walking on the road in high heels with steady steps.

Although it was an ordinary day in Japan, Tokyo was still bustling with people coming and going. Unless there was a major natural disaster or man-made blockade, such a big city would basically be like a giant beast that would never stop. The gears were turning continuously, and even at night, you could hear the sound of the engine oil burning.

The woman wore a watch on her wrist. Occasionally, she would raise her left hand to see where the mechanical hands on her wrist were moving, with an expression that was between boredom and helplessness on her face.

"It's really torture for the skin to go out in such hot weather."

Although it is still spring, the sun is very scorching today. The woman feels that even when she went to work at the beach in the summer, the sun was not so strong, and there was still the sea at that time. But this time there is no sea at all.

Unfortunately, jobs that allow for funded travel are scarce there, and even models are no exception. Some jobs are found by oneself, and most jobs are found by oneself.

What kind of status can you choose your job at will, Yamaguchi Sayoko? It's too difficult.

Moreover, fashion and trends are just like a circular river. You may think they are something new, but in fact they are things of the past. Or they are a combination of various things. As expected, only those few most popular ones appear on the cover.

As the young woman walked, she reached out to lift the hair by her ear, twisted it into a small strand and played with it while mumbling to herself;

"Why don't we take the promotional photos again? Maybe we can get more work."

Just then, flying sand hit her face.

"Hmm? Um—"

The first reaction was to close her eyes, then to cover it with her hands, and the young woman couldn't help but complain in her heart.

Even if it is a big city, it shouldn't be so dirty that there is such a severe level of sandstorm.

It seems that there is a misunderstanding about the Japanese internationally. People who have a good impression of Japan think that the Japanese are very rigorous and self-disciplined people. They regard not causing trouble for others as an important social norm, and even their cities are spotlessly clean.

But the Japanese are also human beings, and as long as it is a city, it can never be very clean.

But even so, this kind of sandstorm——

At this moment, she heard the exclamations of people around her.

What's going on? Why are you shouting? Even if it's a strong sandstorm, it shouldn't be like this, right?

The woman did not connect the wind and sand with the reason for people's calls, but even so, curiosity and a sense of crisis drove her to try to open her eyes while covering her face with her hands.

Suddenly, there was nothing under my feet.

"Eh?"

There was nothing. In the blink of an eye, there was only darkness before my eyes. My hands subconsciously reached forward, but I couldn't catch anything.

With the screams lingering in my ears, I just fell into nothingness.
