Ultraman: I, Ultimate Hyperzeton

Chapter 859 The Fog of Time-Space Distortion

With the rapid spread of information online, Black Star Cafe's business has really taken off, and the shop is packed with customers every day.

Therefore, as a researcher at the National Institute of Natural Sciences, Yibu is getting further and further away from his identity as a researcher.

She's so busy every day that she feels like her mind is completely blank, and she doesn't have time to think about biology-related topics. The moment she opens her eyes, she's making coffee.

Sometimes she even looked forward to the appearance of monsters, which would give her a reason to return to the research institute and continue her research.

Su Yang had seen the state of the shop assistants, but the feeling of making money was just too good. Seeing that the young people could still hold on, he, with his capitalist mindset, thought of giving them a break after making this big profit. Sometimes, you don't know how resilient your subordinates are until you push them a little.

Inside the coffee shop, several young customers sat together, discussing the various supernatural phenomena that had recently appeared alongside the monster.

"Have you heard of Wujiang Mountain? It's been really popular online lately, and I heard they're going to build a theme park there."

"If a theme park is to be built, it means that the place is not that dangerous, so there is no need to explore it."

"No, no, no, I saw a post about Wujiang Mountain online a while ago. It said that a young couple went into the mountain when the fog was thick and entered another world."

“There’s an online community called Phantom Knights that specializes in researching these strange and unusual things. They call it the ‘Brigadon Phenomenon.’”

"What does this mean?" Guangcheng asked curiously from the side while serving milk tea to the customers, having been listening to their conversation.

Yi Daobu, as expected of a researcher at the Institute of Nature, has a wide range of research areas: "It should be a legend in Scotland, about a mysterious village called Brigadon that only appears once every thousand years and is difficult to observe at normal times."

"Some paranormal enthusiasts speculate that the village was enveloped by fog generated by intense air pressure, and that time and space within the fog were chaotic, which is why the village could only be seen when the fog rose, and disappeared when the fog disappeared."

Omega understood: "Does that mean the mist opened a gate to another world?"

"That's really interesting! Let's go check it out sometime!"

Guangcheng wiped the table with a rag and sighed, "The shop is so busy, I don't know when I'll be able to leave."

"Wait, so there's also mist at Mount Kirifuri that can open a gate to another world?"

"It seems to have a lot of research value."

Yi Daobu sighed, "Unfortunately, the research institute thinks these are all rumors and has no related research projects."

She had barely finished speaking when her phone rang.

After the call connected, she heard her supervisor's voice.

"Yes, Section Chief, I'm at the store now. I understand. I've had a good talk with him... The store is so busy right now, there's no time to do any research."

"What? The Paranormal Phenomena Research Club of Ansei University wants us to help them investigate Mount Kirifuri?"

"Yes! Of course I'm willing to go!"

"Will Mr. Jetton be angry? Mr. Jetton's hands are almost cramping from counting money. I should be able to take two days off, right?"

"It's alright, Section Chief, I'm not aggrieved. Just give me a raise in research funding later."

Yidao quickly hung up the phone and then excitedly found the store manager, Jetton, who was playing games in the store's break room: "Manager, I'd like to ask for leave."

"Okay." Su Yang nodded in agreement.

The employees need to rest sooner or later anyway, so since they've already taken the opportunity, let them have a couple of days off.

"There's something going on at Wujiang Mountain, right? You'll take Guangcheng and Zhouren with you. After all, it's a place where supernatural phenomena occur, so you need to be careful. I'll give you two days off."

Yidaobu was touched that the store manager of Jeton was so approachable, even worried about his safety, and his eyes welled up with tears: "Thank you, store manager! When I come back from this holiday, I will definitely work even harder! ^??"

Su Yang smiled. This was the most satisfying way to manipulate employees; he exploited them, and they were still incredibly grateful: "It's okay, go have fun."

That afternoon, after the three left, only Su Yang and his daughter Kuton remained in the shop.

Kuton had finally managed to get a break these past few days, so he sat in front of his father and gestured for his father to massage his shoulders.

"I'm the father, how did it become me serving you?"

Su Yang was both amused and exasperated. Although he said that, he still pinched Little Kuton's neck a couple of times.

"Is the misty mountain they're going to in that direction?" Kuton raised his little hand and pointed southwest.

After sensing it for a moment, Su Yang nodded: "Yes, there are indeed spacetime fluctuations over there."

"Then let's go take a look together," Kuton gently tugged at his father's arm.

"I have a feeling there's something delicious in there."

“No, it’s not just the delicious food, there’s something calling to me…” Kuton said, a hint of confusion in his eyes, not understanding what this inexplicable feeling was all about.

Upon hearing that this matter might be related to Kuton, Su Yang immediately perked up.

The existence of a small village in a distorted and disordered spacetime does not mean that there is only one village there; it simply means that the small village exists relatively stably within that space.

That could lead anywhere, and perhaps one of those places is connected to Cooton's true origins.

Let's go together!

……

Fog descends on the mountain.

Just as the guests described, this place is almost becoming a theme park.

Although construction has not officially started yet, many adventure enthusiasts have already set up camp at the foot of the mountain, and food trucks and barbecue stalls can even be seen nearby.

"I don't feel any sense of urgency at all. Is there really a time warp here?" Guangcheng bought three skewers of oden and gave one to each of them.

Just as he was about to try the oden, a hand reached out from the side, naturally took the skewer from his hand, and then very smoothly put the radish stuck on the skewer into his mouth: "There really is some here."

"Manager? What are you doing here?" Guangcheng looked at Zetton with a resentful expression, his eyes fixed on the oden in Zetton's hand.

“There might be suitable ingredients, so I came.” Su Yang felt that the oden was actually quite well-seasoned. After taking another bite, he naturally handed the empty skewer to Guang Cheng and looked up at the sky: “The sun is very strong today. I guess there won’t be any fog for at least half a month.”

Yi Bu asked, "Then how should we investigate?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a young man's voice came from behind: "Simple, we can just manually create a time portal."

Everyone turned around at the sound and saw three strangely dressed young men.

Guangcheng recognized the three young men: "I've seen you before, you're the Phantom Knights from the internet!"
