Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 350, Section 346: The Eye Contact Between Nexus and Jun Himeya
【Access/Conversion】.

Qi Ming decisively converted it into 1 Star Gift, and then continued to work hard to explore and experiment.

After witnessing the death of the vanguard, the Scopis army overhead was initially stunned for a few seconds before fearlessly swooping down once more.

Seeing this, the goddess of war, Amaterasu, prepared to move forward and adjust her position, but a tearing pain came from her right leg, forcing her to stop.

"My leg isn't healed yet, it's getting in the way." Queen Amaterasu had no choice but to remain in place as a fixed artillery platform, once again unleashing her ultimate beam of light from between her eyebrows to sweep across the Scopis army.

But having just witnessed the power of this attack, Scopis immediately scattered, and the God of War's strike missed its mark.

Inside the sea base, Aizen Makoto, who saw this scene on the screen, was very excited: "Even Queen Amaterasu is going to fight hard. If we don't step up, we're worse than pigs and dogs!"

Even so, he was like someone trapped in a maze, endlessly repeating the same place, unable to leave.

Floating in mid-air, Hikari looked at the data on the instruments and began to understand:

"Due to Bruton's influence, the base is located in a special dimensional axis."

"This dimensional axis connects to the brain of every living being. The scenes that are associated with the mind are mapped here, and things that are thought of unconsciously also have an impact."

This is why Jugglus Juggler is endlessly dragged back to the toilet; he had been holding it in for a while, so the lingering urge to "go to the toilet" hasn't subsided yet.

Hong Kai is the same; he cherishes the time he spent enjoying beautiful scenery with his best friend, so he returned to that point in time.

Each person's timeline is independent; that's Bruton's ability.

The newly born Queen Amaterasu was unaffected because her mind was filled only with the idea of ​​"eliminating all evil" instilled in her by Qi Ming. She had no worries or burdens, only the desire to kill, so she was able to rush to the battlefield smoothly.

Fight, fight, fight, fight!
Hikari continued, “In this space, everyone can traverse time and dimensions, but it takes a strong will to break through the cycle.”

Jun Himeya: "So, as long as the desire to fight is strong, you can go to the battlefield, right?"

Hikari: "Yes."

Himeya Jun nodded: "Okay, let me give it a try."

Holding the Evolution Trustee, he ran to the door, held his breath, and silently chanted:

"The place I should go, the place that needs me most, the place I truly want to go..."

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and took a sudden step forward.

The next moment, the roar of artillery fire rang in his ears.

This voice is...

Jun Himeya stared wide-eyed in disbelief as he discovered that his surroundings had changed drastically.

Instead of going to the TPC sea base, he arrived at a battlefield in a tropical rainforest filled with the smoke of gunpowder.

The deafening roar of artillery fire exploded in our ears, and the air was filled with the acrid smell of gunpowder and blood.

Shell casings and bloodstained bandages were scattered on the muddy ground, and unexploded grenades were still embedded in the charred tree trunks.

The scene is so realistic, even capturing the unique humidity and heat of the tropical rainforest perfectly.

Himeya Jun's eyes were filled with immense shock; he would never forget this place for the rest of his life.

This is the place that changed his life when he was a war correspondent—the battlefield where he witnessed the death of [Serra].

Even though he later fled this place filled with painful memories like a walking corpse, Jun Himeya knew that his soul was forever trapped on that day.

He often has nightmares, in which he always returns to this place, dreaming of this moment that causes him unbearable pain.

Now, he has truly returned here.

Through the dimensional axis created by Bruton, Jun Himeya transcended time and space, arriving from the hybrid universe to the original universe of Nexus.

Jun Himeya looked down at his clothes; it was still the same black leather jacket, not the one he wore as a war correspondent.

However, as he looked around in surprise, he soon saw "himself wearing a helmet and holding a camera."

At this moment, there are two Jun Himeya in this world. Is this... the parallel universe counterpart that Qi Ming and Hikari mentioned?
The same scene, the same Jun Himeya, so is there another one like that...?

The next moment, a young, anxious girl's voice rang out from another place: "Accurate! Accurate!"

Himeya Jun's pupils contracted, and his soul trembled at the familiar voice.

He turned his head blankly and saw a girl in simple clothes running against the flow of fleeing people amidst a hail of bullets, shouting anxiously.

This is... there's no mistake, there's no mistake, this is the moment before Sera died.

"Boom!" A wicked cannonball fell towards Sera from a distance, and without hesitation, Jun Himeya pulled out the Evolution Trustee from his arms.

....................................

Meanwhile, Jun Himeya, a native of Japan, hid in the dense forest, constantly pressing the shutter button to freeze the real battlefield in the frame.

At this time, he had not yet gained fame; he was still a war correspondent.

He was seriously injured during a previous shoot and was supposed to die, but a girl named Sera, who had lost her family in the war, took care of him and pulled him back from the brink of death.

Sera treated him like an older brother, and her liveliness and kindness made Himeya Jun forget the fear and loneliness of the battlefield.

"Accurate! Accurate!"

Amidst the chaos of the battlefield, Sera's voice rang out, startling Jun Himeya, who was then gripped by immense terror.

Soon, he saw Sera, who was calling his name against the flow of fleeing people amidst the roar of gunfire on the battlefield.

How could Sera be here? How could she come to such a dangerous place?

At this moment, Sera finally spotted Jun Himeya in the dense forest. A joyful smile immediately appeared on her face as she ran towards him.

But Jun Himeya couldn't laugh, because he also saw a cannonball sliding towards Sera.

Jun Himeya's blood ran cold, and the world fell silent.

"Whoosh!" The next moment, a bright light burst forth, and a sacred aura seemed to dispel the dark clouds of despair and resentment.

The silver Ultraman Nexus appeared, reaching out to shield Sera within his grasp.

"Boom!" The shell exploded, and the scorching flames and shrapnel were separated by Nexus's large hands, unable to reach the girl he was firmly protecting.

Light blocked out death.

Holding the camera, Jun Himeya's mind went blank; the roar of the battlefield seemed to be isolated in another world. Only his heart pounded wildly in his chest, each beat feeling like it was tearing his flesh apart.

Just seconds before, he thought he was going to lose everything.

Now, things have taken a turn for the better.

"Giants...giants, protected Sera?" He looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

The next moment, Nexus released his grip, and Sera inside was unharmed. She looked curiously at the giant who had saved her.

Nexus also watched Sera quietly, which gave Jun Himeya, who was holding the camera, a strange feeling.

Is it just my imagination? I feel like this giant is radiating a mix of joy and sorrow.

After staring at Sera for a good half minute, Nexus turned his head and met Jun Himeya's gaze.

Giant, are you looking at me?

What's causing this feeling?

Jun Himeya unconsciously put down his camera, stared blankly up at Nexus, and the world seemed to freeze at that moment.

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

The second update will probably come tonight.
