The Gaelic people of the Ultraman Tiga world

Or, to put it in a way that Ryan can understand, those who appear here are all monsters, urban legends like werewolves and vampires.

Compared to the extraterrestrial alliance, which is mainly composed of aliens.

This Sixth Avenue is the settlement of native non-human intelligent beings on Earth.

In this place, it's normal to encounter all sorts of monsters and demons; no one dares to challenge the ironclad rules left by the builders on Sixth Avenue.

Considering the centuries-long feud between these alien species and humans.

Even TPC, which practically dominates the world, could only vaguely sense the existence of Sixth Avenue.

As for the actual location of Sixth Avenue?

Perhaps the person behind Sixth Avenue will only reveal the coordinates of this place when they've had their fill of playing around?

Ryan was deeply skeptical of Kirino Makio's explanation.

Because the moment he entered Sixth Avenue, Ryan's profile screen broke another record.

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

[New mission location: Abnormal creature containment space (first floor)]

[Side Quest 3: Searching for the Inner Realm of This Special Subspace (Congratulations! You've taken another step closer to the reality of the world. But do you really want to find that dangerous space that imprisons the unspeakable beings?)]

[Mission Reward: Warp Space Construction Technology (This is a technology approaching the 'realm of the gods,' which will shatter the understanding of time and space by intelligent civilizations.)]

The personal panel remained as sharp and sarcastic as ever, and Ryan, as always, chose to ignore it.

However, through these simple descriptions, Ryan keenly realized that this so-called "Sixth Avenue" was essentially a cage.

Leaving aside the indescribable existences within the inner realm.

The monsters and demons I saw in just one level of space were most likely the "abnormal creatures" described in my personal panel.

Ryan further confirmed this when he met Lu Xuan at the secondhand store.

My personal panel, which had remained unchanged since I could remember, suddenly updated automatically.

[■■■ permission detected, system is performing a temporary upgrade...]

【1%……10%……30%……50%……70%……90%……99%……】

The system upgrade is complete. Your user privileges have been elevated, and the system will grant you temporary access.

Congratulations! The system has granted you the lowest level of access to the 'Laplace Repository'.

[Authorization successful. Temporary account created. Current access level: Level 10.]

As a series of dazzling messages flashed by, Ryan was surprised to see the specific data of the three people present.

First, he brought me to Sixth Avenue and said that there was a very important person who wanted to see me, Kirino Makio.

Name: Kirino Makio

[Race: Human]

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 23】

[Abilities: Precognition, telekinesis, psychic abilities...]

[Occupation: Unemployed, prophet, charlatan...]

[System Evaluation: A charlatan who likes to play tricks and spout supernatural nonsense. He may have some real skills, but his personality is certainly not likable.]

Then, Ryan turned his gaze to the ghost that was half-floating to the side.

[Name: Ida Kojuro Iryu]

Race: Human (Ghost?)

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 347】

[Abilities: Swordsmanship proficiency, Demon-Subduing Heart Sutra...]

[Class: Onimusha, Great Swordsman, Sword God...]

[System Evaluation: A demon warrior who died hundreds of years ago and was forcibly resurrected as a 'god' possesses a sword capable of slaying demon gods.]

If the information about Ida Iryu displayed on the personal panel was already shocking enough, then so be it.

When Ryan looked at the true owner of the secondhand shop—Lu Xuan—the shock he felt was beyond words.

Name: Lu Xuan

Race: Gaelic (??)

【Sex: Male】

【Age: 13】

[Abilities; extraordinary intelligence, ■■■, ■■■, ■■■...]

[Occupation: Secondhand shop owner, ■■■, ■■■, ■■■……]

[System Evaluation: This is a powerful figure, someone you can never afford to offend. It's recommended that you flatter him while he's in a good mood; you might reap some rewards.]

Even though it doesn't look as tall as my thigh, the system labels it as "thigh".

Ryan fell into a long silence until Lu Xuan, as if sensing something, raised his eyebrows in surprise and then tapped the table lightly.

The next second, all information about Lu Xuan was blurred out with black mosaic, leaving only his name and race.

"Hello, my name is Lu Xuan."

When Lu Xuan pushed open the cabinet door and walked out from backstage, Ryan finally got a clear look at what he looked like.

This is a small alien who is only fifty or sixty centimeters tall.

Its body is entirely green, its head is inverted triangular, its pupils are slits, and its eyelids open and close in the left and right directions.

At first glance, it looks like an intelligent life form evolved from some kind of amphibian on Earth.

However, the moment Ryan saw Lu Xuan's appearance clearly, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, as if he had been targeted by some dangerous predator.

The dangerous aura that seemed out of place with his size even made Ryan unconsciously take a step back.

Chapter 318 Extraterrestrial Invasion

"Don't be so nervous. I didn't call you here with any ill intentions."

After signaling Ryan not to be too nervous, Lu Xuan came up to him, looked up at him, and said.

"I'm just curious, who exactly made you awaken ahead of schedule?"

"How did that guy manage to successfully hack into the Sophon's 'subsystem'?"

Upon hearing this, not only was Ryan completely bewildered, but even the silent Iida Ryu showed a look of astonishment.

What is a Zhizi?

That was the most powerful intelligence that Lu Xuan had created by pooling all his wisdom throughout his life; it was an all-knowing "quantum god."

The ability to infiltrate a sophon, or even just a subsystem of a sophon, is enough to demonstrate its power, which has surpassed the current technological level of Earth.

Even Jing Tianjinglong, who wasn't particularly knowledgeable about technological products, knew that the existence of Zhizi was equivalent to Lu Xuan's "half-body," a powerful weapon capable of returning all of human civilization to its primitive state.

"..."

After realizing that the following conversation might involve some kind of confidential information.

With remarkable decisiveness, Iida Ryu closed his eyes and immediately retreated back into the greatsword behind him.

—Do not speak or listen to anything improper.

This is the most basic survival wisdom that Jing Tianjinglong, as an ancient demon slayer, possesses.

Those demon slayers who listen to, see, and talk too much about demons are unlikely to have a good ending.

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

"Tsk tsk tsk, this old man is good in every way, except that he is too cautious."

Upon witnessing this scene, Kirino Makio couldn't help but click his tongue, but he didn't show any surprise.

"Having died once, he should have some reverence for life."

"But you, are you really still planning to listen?"

Faced with Lu Xuan's smile, which was clearly teasing, Kirino Makio rolled his eyes in annoyance.

"Do I have any reason not to listen?"

“From the moment you asked me to bring this guy back, I knew everything, even things that haven’t happened yet.”

At this point, Kirino Makio gave a sly smile.

"I know you've never believed in fate, so would you like to hear what I'll tell you about the future?"

The smile on his face vanished instantly, and this time it was Lu Xuan's turn to roll his eyes at Kirino Makio.

"Your ability is truly disgusting."

Having finished speaking, Lu Xuan, too lazy to waste any more words with Kirino Makio, looked up at Ryan once again.

“I know you have many questions in your mind. I originally planned to explain it to you when you fully remembered your identity.”

"But now that you've awakened ahead of schedule, I'll just tell you directly."

"The so-called 'system' in your brain was actually implanted into your body by me in the first place."

“That’s a… well, a ‘quantum chip’ that’s a bit hard for you to understand…”

"It can collect your body's biological information at all times and communicate with a large intelligent terminal in the outside world."

"However, some unexpected things have happened. It seems that the 'quantum chip' in your body has been invaded by some unknown entity, and it has even managed to deceive the Sophon's detection system."

Despite discussing matters that completely violate personal privacy and even the right to life, Lu Xuan's performance was remarkably nonchalant.

From the tone of voice alone, you can't even tell how serious the matter is.

"Don't talk about such terrifying things in such a calm tone..."

Despite having long harbored doubts about the existence of a personal panel.

But when Ryan actually confirmed this, he still felt quite uneasy.

In the initial stages of losing his memory, Lane didn't even have a sense of the reality of life.

Aside from the care from Maya, what truly motivated Ryan to live was the sharp self-criticism displayed on his personal panel.

Bang!

Just then, the door of the secondhand store was pushed open again.

Under Lu Xuan's astonished gaze, Daigo, in a flurry of energy, burst into the shop and immediately gulped down the tea that Kirino Makio had just brewed.

"Lu Xuan! I need help!"

Only then did Daigo finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"Immediately, right now, the sooner the better!"

This was the first time Lu Xuan had seen Daigu with such an anxious expression, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and suspicious.

"What happened?"

He first glanced subtly at Ryan, who also looked surprised and suspicious, and then looked at Kirino Makio, who seemed to have expected it.

Lu Xuan ultimately decided to put Ryan's problem aside for the time being and ask Daigo what had happened.

"If I remember correctly, you were on duty today, weren't you?"

The Victory Team operates on a normal shift system, requiring one or two pilots to be on duty each day.

Since Shinjo went to the bar to support Maya, it's naturally Daigo and Rena who will be on duty today.

Given Daigo's personality, he would never come to Sixth Avenue for help during his duty hours unless something truly happened that was beyond his control.

As for things beyond Daigo's capabilities?
