Ancient Monster Demanyir

cosmic nightmare monster justin

-------------------

The alarm sounded continuously in the SEPOChina Donghai base.

"Coordinates W858, N1126, the ancient monster Demanyir appeared." Jiang Wan reported calmly.

Early in the morning, the land-based active phased array radar fed back the signal of the monster's activities on the ground. In the 3D stereoscopic imaging display, the huge and cumbersome Demanyir is going crazy on a plain.

"It's just a Demanyir, two people are enough." Yang Yuanliang said casually: "Xu Rui drives the Goshawk Alpha, and Zhuo Fei drives the Goshawk Beta. SAC, Let'sfightforvictory!"

"Yessir!"

Xu Rui and Wei Zhuofei immediately took orders and left.

Two fighter planes quickly arrived at the scene.The place where Demanyir appeared was hundreds of miles away, and the terrain was flat, with a wide field of vision, which was very conducive to combat.

"Haha! This monster doesn't look very powerful, let's end the battle within one minute!" Wei Zhuofei laughed and couldn't wait to launch the first attack, "Anti-monster cluster bomb, launch!"

A bomb box was thrown down from the Beta fighter plane, and after disintegrating in the air, hundreds of sub-bombs were thrown and fell around the monster, triggering a large-scale continuous explosion.

The crackling sound was loud, the flames soared into the sky, thick smoke rose, and the monsters howled continuously.In the billowing smoke, there was only a flash of white light, and six fireballs flew out suddenly, directly attacking the Beta.

"Be careful!" Xu Rui shouted softly.

The electronically scanned phased array fire control radar mounted on the Alpha's nose immediately locked on to all targets, and four beams of interception beams were launched simultaneously, four of which exploded in an instant, and two more beams of interception beams were shot out in the next second, followed by bombardment. Killed the remaining two fireballs.

Xu Rui's reaction speed and on-the-spot adaptability are quite outstanding, but in just two seconds, the fireball was completely destroyed by him before it touched the Beta.

"The Cosmic Developer α combat system is activated and enters air strike mode." The color of Alpha's fuselage changed to sky blue, and the shape of its wings changed accordingly.

"Cosmic Burst Light, Launch!" A pillar-like beam of red light shot out from the Alpha, and exploded the moment it precisely hit Demanyir, and the huge explosion power instantly blasted the monster into pieces.

"Good job!" Captain Yang Yuanliang cheered from the communicator in the cockpit.

Xu Rui glanced at Wei Zhuofei over there, he was gesturing victory to himself, Xu Rui also gestured back, and was about to return, when suddenly there was a sharp pain in his temple, as if something had penetrated his head, But it quickly returned to normal.

Xu Rui shook his head, and now he doesn't feel anything anymore, he couldn't help wondering: Was that an illusion just now?

Without paying much attention, Xu Rui drove the Alpha and continued to fly to the base.

……

On a summer afternoon, Yunxi Middle School.

The cicadas on campus screamed desperately, but they couldn't cover the sound of students reading aloud.

In the classroom of Class 1, Grade [-], the electric fan is hanging from the ceiling and spinning whirringly, and the teacher stands on the podium and keeps opening and closing his mouth.

Sunlight came in from the window and hit Zhu Siyan's body. She lowered her eyelids and remained motionless, her long straight hair fluttering gently under the electric fan.

"Xu Rui!"

She was always so quiet, as if she came from another world, she was sitting in front of her eyes, but she felt out of reach.

"Xu Rui!!"

She is always so melancholy, with a sadness that does not meet her age, and she is alone.

Bang!

"Ouch!" Suddenly, Xu Rui was hit hard on the head, and Xu Rui came back to his senses. It was the teacher who hit him on the head with a book.

"Ah, ah! Hello, teacher!" Xu Rui stood up in a panic.

The whole class burst into laughter.

The teacher had a dark face: "If you don't listen carefully in class, why are you in a daze? Let me stand and listen to this class!"

"Yes..." Xu Rui lowered his head in recognition of his mistake, but secretly glanced at the window again.

Zhu Siyan still lowered her eyelids, immersed in her own thoughts.She seemed to be isolated from the world, completely unaware of everything happening around her.

As if finally feeling Xu Rui's gaze, Zhu Siyan suddenly turned her head, and those black eyes full of melancholy met Xu Rui's eyes, causing his heart to shake suddenly, and a strong sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.

Suddenly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, with a hint of desolation, sadness, and farewell.Then, her figure disappeared into the sunlight.

"Zhu Siyan——!"

……

"No!" Xu Rui sat up from the bed abruptly. In the dark room, he was panting heavily, sweating profusely all over his body.

Zhu Siyan.

How many years has he not thought of this girl who passed away at such a young age? After learning that she died in a car accident, perhaps because he was afraid of facing the reality, he didn't even remember her funeral. None of them participated, not even her cemetery.

Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Rui reached out to turn on the desk lamp, picked up the SAC terminal on the bedside table, and glanced at the time. It was only 2:[-] in the morning, which was still early before dawn.After getting up and going into the bathroom to take a shower, washing off the sweat, Xu Rui changed into his usual clothes and went out.

……

The summer night breeze is very cool. Yunxi Middle School is located in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. The streets around the school are lined with willows and evergreen trees. The lights of fireflies shuttle among the green leaves, adding a little life to the deep night of brilliance.

Xu Rui was walking alone on Xinan Road, and occasionally a car passed by him, and the street lights on both sides cast light and shadow on the road, and the familiar scene brought back dusty memories for a long time.

Going further, it is the west gate of Yunxi Middle School.It is said that Zhu Siyan had a dispute with a girl in the same class on this road, and did not pay attention to the passing vehicles, which eventually led to tragedy.

Xu Rui didn't know why Zhu Siyan, who was so quiet and introverted, would argue with others. The school blocked all news about that incident and prohibited all teachers and students from discussing it, and the girl who had an argument with Zhu Siyan did not come to class the next day , and then transferred to another school.

Xu Rui stopped, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and looked quietly at the empty road.

What happened that summer?

He slowly closed his eyes.

……

Xu Rui opened his eyes.

On Xinan Road, junior high school students in school uniforms came out from the west school gate in groups of threes and fours, laughing and laughing.

It was school time.

"Xu Rui!" Several boys in the same class ran towards Xu Rui, and one of them grabbed his school uniform by the chest, laughed and cursed: "Your skin is itchy, aren't you? You won't be seen after class, are you?" Shall we go to dinner together?"

"Huh?" Xu Rui was stunned for a while, he still hadn't recovered.

Is this... a dream again?

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Liu Yuxuan running out of the school gate in panic, Xu Rui was taken aback. Isn't Liu Yuxuan the girl who had a dispute with Zhu Siyan?

Sure enough, after a while, Zhu Siyan also ran out of the school gate, chasing after Liu Yuxuan.Zhu Siyan was tall and had long legs, so she quickly caught up with Liu Yuxuan, grabbed her arm, and said something anxiously.

Liu Yuxuan kept trying to break free, cursing something loudly, with deep disgust in her irritable expression.In the end, Zhu Siyan couldn't hold her arm and she broke free.Liu Yuxuan took several steps back in a hurry, and cursed at Zhu Siyan loudly: "Why don't you die, you pervert!" Then she turned around and ran to the opposite side of the road.

Zhu Siyan trembled as if struck by lightning, a trace of grief and despair flashed in her eyes, but she still chased Liu Yuxuan again.And just as she rushed to the middle of the road, a van roared up——

"Be careful!"

Xu Rui only had time to shout out, and the van slammed into Zhu Siyan heavily.

Eyes full of blood.

……

"Ah!" Xu Rui squatted on the ground holding his head in pain, and there was a sharp tearing pain from his head as if it had been cut open by a whole saw.

"Hu-hu-"

In the dark night, Xu Rui gasped heavily.

If...if his reaction was a little faster just now...is it...is it possible...

The pain gradually dissipated, Xu Rui wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stood up slowly.

……

Xu Rui stood up.

On Xinan Road, junior high school students in school uniforms came out from the west school gate in groups of threes and fours, laughing and laughing.

It was school time.

"Xu Rui!" Several boys in the same class ran towards Xu Rui, and one of them grabbed his school uniform by the chest, laughed and cursed: "Your skin is itchy, aren't you? You won't be seen after class, are you?" Shall we go to dinner together?"

"This..." Xu Rui was startled, "He's back again?"

"What's back?" the boy asked.

Xu Rui ignored the boy's question, and turned to look at the school gate. Liu Yuxuan had already run out of the school gate, and Zhu Siyan followed after her, and the two began to argue.

The scene was indeed repeating.

Xu Rui didn't have time to think too much, so he ran to them immediately, and urged them urgently: "You two students, please stop arguing and talk if you have something to say!"

"It's none of your business." Zhu Siyan didn't seem to want Xu Rui to know what happened between them, and was anxious to pull Liu Yuxuan aside to avoid him, but Liu Yuxuan took advantage of her distraction to break free from her hand and rushed to her Curse: "Why don't you die, you pervert!"

After speaking, she turned around and ran to the opposite side of the road. Just as Zhu Siyan was about to chase her, Xu Rui grabbed her.The van whizzed by——

Bang!

Liu Yuxuan was knocked into the air and landed heavily.

"Do not--!"

……

"Ah!" More severe pain came from his head, and Xu Rui fell to the ground in pain holding his head.

Due to his intervention, there was a slight 2-second deviation in the whole incident, and precisely because of this 2-second time deviation, the car accident that should have happened to Zhu Siyan instead happened to Liu Yuxuan.

One was saved, another was harmed, and nothing changed in the end.

If...if I could do it again...

Xu Rui stood up with strong support.

……

On Xinan Road, junior high school students in school uniforms came out from the west school gate in groups of threes and fours, laughing and laughing.

"Xu Rui!" Several boys in the same class ran towards Xu Rui, one of them grabbed his school uniform by the chest, laughed and cursed: "Your skin is itchy, aren't you? I won't see you after class... "

Xu Rui slapped his hand off, and ran to the school gate before he finished speaking. Liu Yuxuan was coming out of the gate, Xu Rui quickly stopped in front of her: "Liu Yuxuan!"

"Get out of the way!" Liu Yuxuan wanted to go around Xu Rui, but was stopped by him, so anxious that she beat Xu Rui with her two little hands, "Go away, go away!"

Then Zhu Siyan chased after her, and Liu Yuxuan was panicked and disgusted, and shouted to stop: "Don't come here!"

"Xuanxuan..." Zhu Siyan stopped, as if she wanted to explain something, but because of Xu Rui's presence, she didn't dare to say more.

Liu Yuxuan shouted at her: "I don't want to see you, you disappear immediately!"

"Liu Yuxuan, don't be angry," Xu Rui hurriedly persuaded the fight, "It is inevitable that there will be misunderstandings between the students, just explain clearly. Don't hurt the friendship between each other because of a small friction!"

Liu Yuxuan sneered: "Misunderstanding? What is misunderstanding? Zhu Siyan is simply..."

"Xu Rui!"

Before she finished speaking, those boys embraced together, and the boy who grabbed Xu Rui's school uniform was joking: "Hey, what's the situation? It can't be that you boy had two girlfriends at the same time and was arrested." Did you grab the bag?"

"Don't make trouble." Xu Rui raised his hand and was about to push the boy away.

Seeing so many classmates coming all at once, Liu Yuxuan pointed at Zhu Siyan and announced loudly: "Zhu Siyan is a boy, not a girl!"

As soon as these words came out, the air froze instantly, and the picture froze instantly.

Xu Rui's heart was shocked, and he looked at Zhu Siyan in disbelief, but saw that "her" face was pale, her lips had no color, and her body was trembling constantly.

Liu Yuxuan's words attracted the attention of the surrounding students, and the crowd gradually increased.

Liu Yuxuan was still yelling: "I have always regarded him as my best friend, but he has been cheating me and all of us by dressing up as a man! As a boy, he actually dressed up as a girl, with long hair and a skirt, He also lied to all his classmates that he was a girl, he is simply a psychopath!"

"No way? Is he a boy?"

"You're pretty, how could it be a boy?"

"Is Zhu Siyan really a man disguised as a woman?"

"Why would a boy dress up like a girl?"

The classmates whispered and cast strange glances at him.

Suddenly became the focus of attention, Zhu Siyan was panicked, with mist in her eyes, she stepped back step by step, and kept muttering in her mouth: "I...I'm not...It's not like this...It's not like this... "

Xu Rui froze in place, his expression still a little dazed.He still couldn't believe Liu Yuxuan's words.From the moment he saw Zhu Siyan for the first time until now, in the past ten years, he has never thought that the melancholy girl in his memory is actually a boy.

Gradually, Zhu Siyan couldn't bear the fiery and strange gaze, turned around and ran out as if fleeing.

Di-

The van roared by.

"don't want--!!"

Bang!

……

Combat Command Room.

"Strange, it's already ten o'clock, why hasn't Xu Rui arrived at his post yet?" Yang Yuanliang muttered, "Could it be that he overslept? Peng Jun, go to his room and have a look."

"Yes." Peng Jun got up and left the command room.

As soon as he walked to the door of Xu Rui's room, Peng Jun sensitively sensed the breath of the cosmic monster.

To be alarmed, Peng Jun didn't directly go up to knock on the door. After seeing that there was no one around, he used "Otto Perspective" to check the situation in the room: Xu Rui was lying on his bed with his eyes closed, his expression collapsed, and his face was broken. He was sweating profusely and seemed to be in great pain.

Besides Xu Rui, there were no other living beings in the room.

Peng Jun's eyes were fixed, and he had already guessed the truth.It seems that the cosmic nightmare monster Justin invaded Xu Rui's brain, creating nightmares and trapping him in a dream.And to rescue Xu Rui and get him out of the nightmare, he had to enter his dream to find the mischievous Justin and destroy it.

Peng Jun crossed his hands in front of his chest and slowly clenched his fists. Suddenly, his body turned into a stream of light and entered through the door. Without hesitation for a moment, it flew in front of Xu Rui and fell into his mind.
