This pleased Li Xiang, and Yuan Zhisheng even boasted about how the Snake-Headed Eight Families had evacuated the masses in a timely manner.
After all, the Snake Clan fights the Demon Clan every day, so their mobility is at its peak.
After the ruins were completely cleared and it was confirmed that no one was trapped inside, the group was finally able to rest.
The three of them, along with everyone else involved in the rescue, squatted down by the roadside and ate their boxed lunches.
The boxed meals were full of meat. After all, this was the first meal of the day after more than 30 hours of emergency rescue, so it had to be a hearty meal.
This was also arranged in advance by Genjiro.
He took this into consideration very carefully.
Then Yuan Zhisheng and Chu Tianjiao saw Li Xiang eating while smiling happily.
Because all three of them were filthy, when Li Xiang laughed, his face was black but his teeth were white, which made Chu Tianjiao laugh as well.
"Hey, what are you laughing at that makes you so happy?"
“I’m laughing because we didn’t save many people,” Li Xiang said, genuinely hungry, as he ate his food. “That means not many people were buried in the rubble, everyone is safe, shouldn’t we be happy?”
One sentence stunned Chu Tianjiao and the silent Yuan Zhisheng.
They genuinely had never seen anyone like Li Xiang.
From the moment they met Li Xiang, they sensed a special feeling emanating from him.
This person gives off a very pure feeling, as if they live solely to help others.
"So there are still such selfless people in the world..." Genji thought to himself. "Is this... Ultraman?"
At that moment, Chu Tianjiao and Yuan Zhisheng's cell phones rang simultaneously, and they immediately answered them.
After a while, the two looked at each other and then nodded in tacit agreement.
Chu Tianjiao put away his phone: "Sir, I think we really need to leave now. The emergency rescue here is complete, and the engineering team will begin clearing the rubble..."
"We received a notification from above that a nearby nuclear energy research base has been attacked, possibly related to the monster that appeared during the day!"
"What!" Li Xiang quickly put down his lunchbox.
"Nuclear energy research base attacked?"
"Could it be the work of that Scia chimera from earlier in the day? But it should have been destroyed by Tiga!"
Li Xiang began to think.
Yuan Zhisheng keenly caught a word that Li Xiang mentioned.
"The Scia chimera you're talking about, is it the monster that was defeated by the giant a day ago?"
"That's right, it's a monster born from Sphia by fusing and absorbing other organic or inorganic matter. It's called Sphia Synthetic Beast. Although I don't know what it was made of, I'm sure it was created by Sphia."
“Sphia… a chimera… and a snake…”
Genjiro began to recall the strange creature he had seen in Tachibana Masamune's laboratory; it turned out that thing was Sphia!
Masamune Tachibana is actually raising a Sphia!
Why did he do that?
Could it be that they want to spy on the White King's power?
Genjiro then remembered that Tachibana Masamune seemed to be having Sphia devour the White King's remains...
That makes sense. That Specia chimera is the monster that assimilated the power of the White King—"Specia Dragon King Chimera" Izanami.
"Gentlemen, I've seen that creature called Sphia before. Tachibana Masamune tried to raise it, even letting Sphia devour the remains of the White King. Although he ultimately failed, he was also devoured by Sphia..."
Li Xiang didn't understand what the White King's Remains were, but Chu Tianjiao did. In an instant, his eyes widened, and he immediately and secretly contacted Angers.
Upon hearing Genjiro mention that someone was raising a Sphia, Li Xiang initially gave a look that said, "How could there be such an idiot?", before suddenly realizing something.
"Gentlemen, I have a bad idea!"
Li Xiang spoke up, expressing his thoughts: "Do you know what the original goal of that Specia chimera was?"
"Izanami's original target was the nuclear energy research base that was just attacked." Genji knew this, so he immediately answered Li Xiang.
"In that case, the current situation is probably very bad. That Specium chimera named Izanami is very weak. Tiga defeated it in just a few moves."
Upon hearing this, both Yuan Zhisheng and Chu Tianjiao showed grim expressions. Dude, this is weak? It almost crossed Tokyo!
Li Xiang ignored their expressions: "I suspect that Izanami was just trying to draw attention away from the nuclear energy research base. It was another Sphia who attacked it!"
“The Sphias have a strong ability to split, and can split into many smaller Sphias vanguards. So I suspect that Izanami is just a smokescreen, and in fact other Sphias have secretly gone to the nuclear energy research base for the nuclear energy!”
"To be honest, I come from another world. My world just ended its war with the Sphias, and I accidentally traveled through a black hole to this world. These Sphias may have come to this world with me."
"This is the trouble I caused!"
"I just don't understand how someone could have come into contact with and raise Sphia so quickly when I've only been in this world for two days?"
At this point, Chu Tianjiao was puzzled.
What do you mean you've only been in this world for two days? Who was the giant who saved you and your son three years ago?
"Wait, haven't you been in this world for three years already?"
"Three years?" Li Xiang scratched his head.
"Yes, three years ago on a rainy night, on the overpass, you turned into a giant and saved me and my son. I was that old general's man, the one who was wielding a knife and fighting Odin!"
Now that you mention it, Li Xiang really does remember that he saved two people that night, one of whom seems to be the person in front of him.
“But, I defeated that guy named… Odin, right? After I defeated him, I landed in this city and met his sister.” Li Xiang pointed at Yuan Zhisheng.
Chu Tianjiao was also stunned, because from other people's perspectives, the giant should have appeared three years ago.
The first to react was Genjiro: "It's Odin!"
The two then hurriedly looked at him.
"If you really fought Odin, perhaps it was Odin's power that allowed you to travel to the present, that is, directly to three years in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang also realized: "When I was fighting him, there was indeed a time turbulence around us... If that's the case, then I know what's going on."
"I didn't travel to three years in the future. It's because of the time turbulence that time slowed down incredibly. So when I left that space, three years had already passed outside!"
Even so, it still made Chu Tianjiao and Yuan Zhisheng sweat.
What does it mean to survive in a time turbulence?
"So... what happened to Odin? Did he run away?"
Chu Tianjiao said weakly.
"He's dead. He was killed by Tiga. What happened?"
Chu Tianjiao's anxiety finally subsided. Although he had seen Tiga's battle today and guessed that Odin was no match for Tiga, he was now relieved.
But I was still shocked to hear that Odin was dead, as Li Xiang had said so casually.
That's Odin!
He died just like that, so simply.
No one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

Chapter 16 No matter who you are, life is incredibly precious!
Composing himself, Chu Tianjiao spoke to Li Xiang again: "My name is Chu Tianjiao, and I am the Dragon Slayer of Kassel College. I have come here to invite you to the Kassel College headquarters."
"I am Genjiro, the head of the Kassel Japan branch, and also the patriarch of the Snake Clan," Genjiro introduced himself promptly.
In his eyes, this being who could transform into a giant of light must be very important to Kassel College. He knew he couldn't keep him here, but he could still build a good relationship with him.
Yuan Zhisheng could tell that Li Xiang was a strangely kind person, so building a good relationship with such a person would definitely be useful in the future.
"Li Xiang, a member of the second generation of TPC Victory Team."
Li Xiang introduced himself and then took the initiative to extend his hand to shake hands with the two of them.
To be honest, it took the three of them more than 30 hours to learn each other's names.
Moreover, Chu Tianjiao immediately reported the name Li Xiang to Angers, who then immediately had someone compare it with the characters in the tokusatsu series "Ultraman Tiga".
The result was that no character named Li Xiang was found.
"Now that time is of the essence, let's hurry to Kassel..."
Chu Tianjiao said this to Li Xiang, after all, his purpose in coming here was to safely bring Li Xiang back to Kassel. If someone like Li Xiang were to be found by someone with ulterior motives, something bad might happen.
But then, Genjiro's phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and answered the call; it was Sakura calling.
"……What!"
"Okay, I'll be right back!"
Then, Yuan Zhisheng put down his phone and left with his people without saying goodbye!
Chu Tianjiao and Li Xiang looked at the flustered Yuan Zhisheng. This patriarch of the Snake Clan and the head of the Kassel branch had always appeared mature.
But now he was panicked and left in a hurry.
Li Xiang could tell that something very important must have happened to Yuan Zhisheng for him to be so anxious.
"Mr. Chu Tianjiao, let's go take a look together."
"...But, aren't we going to Kassel?"
"Of course I'll go, but helping others is more important. Although I don't know if I can be of any help, I can't not go!"
After saying that, Li Xiang quickly caught up with Yuan Zhisheng and his group who had left.
As Chu Tianjiao watched Li Xiang walk away, the rainy night from three years ago reappeared in his memory.
But this memory is no longer one of fear and despair, but one filled with hope.
He immediately sent another message to Angers, and then chased after Yuan Zhisheng and Li Xiang in the direction they had left.
After the monster Izanami was defeated by Tiga, Erii was also taken to the backup base by Sakura.
