I, the only superpower on earth.

Chapter 65
Under the silent night.

A few hours ago, in the same night, almost when the war between Ito Mio and the "Special Operations Team" broke out, a girl was holding a mobile phone on the road in Ibaraki Prefecture, tens of kilometers away from Tokyo. Walking slowly in the night.

"...Going forward, there is still about one kilometer to go...there is the famous barren mountain..."

Mizuhara Manami looked at the map on her mobile phone and walked slowly forward according to the signs of the country road.

Ever since she got a clue to the barren mountain in "Suyu Bookstore" that day, Mizuhara Manami had the idea of ​​leaving.

However, I don't know if it was because of some hesitant fear of the inexplicable existence behind Xigu, or because of some other reasons, Mizuhara Manami still didn't choose to act at the first time, and continued to spend the next few days absent-minded. student life.

He took off his glasses and went back to school. Because he had never interacted with people in the past, Manami Mizuhara's changes did not attract much attention. However, Yoshiko Okuyama, who had a dark heart, experienced the lesson Manami Mizuhara gave her in front of the bookstore that day. In the future, I dare not come back to provoke.

Therefore, Mizuhara Manami didn't encounter any trouble, and even her parents didn't notice the changes in her daughter, but they just felt that she was able to take off her glasses, which surprised them.

So, Mizuhara Manami spent several days of chaotic time like this.

Until that day, when I turned on my phone, I saw the hottest video on several familiar supernatural forums.

——"The Meshita Town Incident! The Blood Angel is here!"

In addition to relevant official insiders and government insiders, most people think that it is just an overly real video synthesized by CG, and only a small number of people have some concerns about its authenticity.

However, Mizuhara Mana knew that it was indeed a real scene.

Because, that angel-like face that appeared in the "Meshita Town" incident was exactly the same as the face of Ito Mio-senpai who appeared in the abandoned factory that she saw that day.

It even became more perfect, and the aura on his body became even bigger.

...she is constantly evolving.

Manami Mizuhara was sitting in the classroom, staring blankly at the images in the video. The video was repeated over and over again in just a few minutes. When she finally woke up, she felt that her whole body was covered in cold sweat.

As someone who was also deeply involved with the store manager, she felt the changes in Ito Mio's body, perhaps because they both accepted the wooden pendant, so the essence of power is the same.

Therefore, she can also feel more and more clearly that the nature of the power displayed by Mio Ito, from the abandoned factory to the town of Megami, is also like undergoing the transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly, moving in a deeper and deeper direction.

When you realize this--

"...I want to stop her."

Such thoughts flashed in Mizuhara Mana's heart.

It quickly turned into conviction.

"It's no longer the time to stay where you are and beg others to come forward in a panic...Even if I encountered that horror on the second floor that day...I'm still going to the barren mountain to find the store manager or what he left behind...

"...Only in this way can Mio Ito-senpai be stopped!"

In the icy cold that seemed to freeze blood, Mana Mizuhara stared intently at the screen on the phone screen, silently biting her lips.

——So, it is today.

And tonight.

Deliberately picking a weekend, Mizuhara Mana took the JR to Ibaraki Prefecture where Mount Arana is located during the day, left the urban area, came to a place less than one kilometer away from Mount Arana, and finally arrived at the destination.

"Well...Mom, I'm watching a movie. I'm alone...I'll be back soon, please don't worry about me...Well, I'll be back in an hour at most."

After hanging up the phone and relieving her parents from worrying, Mana could not help but smile wryly.

Can you really come back in an hour?I'm afraid not.Don't talk about going back tonight, even tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...

It's even possible that you can't go back like this.

Taking a deep breath, Mizuhara Mana could really feel the fear that was lurking in her heart.

For Shitiya, the mysterious store manager, the current Mizuhara Manami herself can't tell what kind of feelings she has.

He can listen to his heartfelt speech with kindness and tenderness, but he can also show such a terrifying darkness on the second floor of the bookstore, as if an indescribable existence is about to come;

He can give himself such a precious mystical book as "Hermes Worthy", and bandage the wounds on Ito Mio who he brought over; but he can also give Ito Mio power without hesitation, let her Committing so much blood.

Is he good or evil?

Is it a terrifying evil spirit, or a high-ranking god?

Mizuhara Manami's heart was heavy and she couldn't come to a stable result.

The only thing she can know is that in this business, no matter what kind of results happen.

While picking up the phone and lighting the path under your feet, the few surreal forums you registered scrolled through the latest posts.

"I live in Katsushika District, and I heard the sound of bombing a few kilometers away..."

"What happened? A military exercise?"

"I saw fighter jets dispatched."

"wwwww, it can't be that Godzilla came out."

"That area has been cordoned off. I live nearby, and a second-level alert was suddenly declared, and all residents are not allowed to go downstairs..."

"I'm also nearby. There was an OL lady who wanted to go downstairs, but there was a self-defense guard at the bottom of the corridor, and she was asked to go back with a gun. (Laughs)"

"I found a chariot passing by the gate of the community, can you imagine it? It's a chariot!"

"Is it really Godzilla? The government is fighting it?"

"It's also possible that Ultraman was being hunted down, or a No. [-] machine was dug out from under Tokyo Bay..."

Other similar posts appeared one by one in other forums, but looking at those posts, Mizuhara Manami couldn't feel as relaxed as the users of those posts.

She had a vague premonition that the latest incident in Katsushika Ward might have something to do with Mio Ito.And after this incident, what kind of strength will Ito Mio's strength expand to, and what kind of disaster will be caused--she has no idea about this point.

And at the same time she was thinking this, on the mobile phone forum, the pages of posts that were originally refreshed seemed to have undergone a major cleaning, and instantly became blank. All related forums, once refreshed, could no longer be opened. .

Dazed for a moment, Mizuhara Manami simply turned off them, and only turned on the light of the mobile phone for illumination, walking on the country road.

Soon, she came to the end of the path, and a mountain stood in front of her.
