Chapter 1094 Remnant Dream

Tokyo, Toshima Ward, Ikebukuro West Exit Park.

"Kenjiro...Kenjiro...Are you okay?!"

"Snapped!"

The scorching pain on his cheek made Kenjiro's eyes widen suddenly: "Hiss, it hurts...Brother Gongyuki? I...I fell asleep?"

Subconsciously covering his red and swollen face, Kenjiro looked at Ichimoto Miyayuki who was shaking his hands in confusion.

"I don't know, just after I woke up, I saw you all fell asleep... Tsk, my head hurts like hell..."

Rubbing his forehead, Ichimoto Miyako walked past the stalls with the words "Phoenix Runaway Group" and "Distribute Free Food and Water", and kicked up a dozen gangsters scattered around the square one by one: " Hey, get up, don't pretend to be dead, there are still a lot of rescuers and people waiting for us to express our condolences!"

"Pain pain pain..."

"Brother Gong Xing, isn't your foot too heavy?"

"Did you fall asleep because you were too tired to help with disaster relief recently?"

Following his footsteps, the gangsters in leather jackets and special attack suits with fierce faces sat up in pain.

"By the way, Brother Gongxing... You must not have guessed it. I had a dream like a special drama... The black giant Buddha vs. the blood-colored planet... The final ending is actually a common death..."

“I must have watched too many replays of Ghost Rider recently!”

Standing in front of the booth covering his face, Kenjiro's eyes were full of confusion: "However, I vaguely remember that I seemed to see Brother Araki in my dream...Could it be because he didn't answer the phone all the time, which made people worry too much?"

"Yeah?"

The cigarette that Ichimoto Miyako had just put on the corner of his mouth and hadn't had time to light it quietly fell to the ground.

"However, if it's Araki-san..."

After being dazed for a while, he bent down to pick up a cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it: "It's not unusual to ride a warrior of the Warring States Period and go out to work part-time as a ghost knight, to fight monsters and so on."

…

Aokigahara Sea of ​​Trees, at the center.

The canopy that covered the sky and the sun disappeared without a trace, leaving only potholes and black rock soil that seemed to have experienced countless battles.

The slanted Skytree, the vines and currents on the tower have faded, and the original bright blue is restored.

On the side of Taki, Tsukage Chikusa with a cold body and a smile on the corner of his mouth, quietly stared at the scorched computer wreckage with gray and dull eyes.

Not far away was a headless body wrapped in blood crystals and broken into several pieces.

Farther away, there were spirit eliminators lying all over the ground.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

The sound of squawking propellers sounded over the sea of ​​trees, breaking the deathly silence.

"What's the situation now…"

"Everyone, are you okay?"

With severe headaches, the spirit eliminators woke up one by one.

"We're still alive?!"

"By the way, where's that foreign demon?!"

The current piercing through the atmosphere, the black hole devouring everything, and the eyeball planet spreading the meaning of destruction, it seems that just now...

In front of him, there was only the endless blue sky and white clouds, and the group of helicopters hovering around the Skytree.

"By the way, I dreamed...dreamed about that black Buddha...put that foreign demon..."

"It's not a dream, it's Zongsuke...he made the move..."

During the period of losing consciousness, the dreamy and broken pictures flooded into my mind, and everyone's eyes subconsciously patrolled the venue...

"But, Araki-senpai...senpai, where are you now?"

The vegetation was withered, and in the "desert" that was empty except for the black volcanic rock, there was no figure they were looking for.

"Crack."

Amid the sudden cracking sound, the towering black tree that has been here for 23 years, its branches, leaves, trunk and root system withered and withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into black ash and soaring into the sky.

"This tree... Mayumi... Could it be..."

"No... Ayano..."

Facing this scene, Yu Mayumi Kotori and Ayano Mochizuki, who were sitting together, saw deep anxiety in each other's eyes at the same time.

"Boom...boom!"

Amidst the faint sound of the exhaust, only the broken trunk and a one-wheeled warrior from the Warring States Period remained. He struggled out of the deep pit beside him and gently rubbed against the second woman.

"Samurai of the Warring States Period... That's right, that guy will be fine... That's a man that even **** would 'reject'..."

"Well... Araki-sensei... he will never admit defeat..."

The two women held each other's cold and white hands tightly and comforted each other, but they still couldn't feel any warmth.

…

"Report, equipment is disturbed by anomalous electromagnetic field, rebooting in progress."

In the Command Room of Lesson 9, the agents were frowning and rushing among the restarting equipment with bursting veins.

"Report, all staff in the headquarters have regained consciousness, and no other abnormal symptoms have been found except for headaches..."

"According to the equipment records and the latest information, the whole of Japan, no, the entire eastern hemisphere, there has been a short-term magnetic field anomaly and mass loss of consciousness just now... The sequelae are known to be headaches and incomplete dream memories..."

"Report, the abnormal current on the Skytree disappears, the abnormal magnetic field in the sea of ​​trees disappears, and several kilometers of vegetation-free areas are observed in the center of the sea of ​​trees."

"Report, the mobile team has witnessed the whereabouts of the spirit removers under the Skytree, please ask if they will land for support?"

With the restart of the equipment and the restoration of communication, the chaotic rain of messages continued to come from various channels.

"Let the drone go down for testing first, and immediately send a support team to drop it down after confirming its safety!"

"receive."

Looking at the aerial images synchronized on the screen, Mai Hanyu kept searching the sea of ​​trees...

"Let the mobile team search for Araki Sousuke's whereabouts first, and report any news as soon as possible."

"receive."

But she still couldn't find a figure that made her miss her heart.

"Sister, what I dreamed just now, did it really happen..."

Hou Hailudou with a pale face came to her side, and asked in a low voice: "Araki-kun, did you ruthlessly crush the face of a planet?"

"Lu Dou..."

"That ~lightnovelpub.net~ didn't add the word 'hacker' in front of it, I'm not used to it."

"The only task you have now is to find the sleeping person in the shortest possible time, even if you use any means to turn the world upside down."

Without answering his question, Mai Hanyu issued a "work order" that made his face twitch slightly with an unprecedented serious expression: "...Otherwise, the world will be destroyed."

"Ha, destruction? Didn't Araki-kun save the world just now?"

…

a day later.

Nagasaki Prefecture, Tsushima Island.

This island, which is located in the southernmost part of Japan and has experienced many wars in history, is surrounded by the sea and the sky, bathed in sea breeze and sunshine.

Backed by Mt. Utohatake and facing the sea, five gray and white stone torii gates with the inscription "Watome Shrine" line up in a straight line, extending from the beach all the way to the sea at equal intervals...

It is like a pilgrimage road floating on the sea.
