Heroic Spirit: I, Shinji, have tried my best.

After some questioning, Shinji finally realized what kind of world he had come to...

It is no exaggeration to say that for humans, who are basically the rulers in other worlds, it is hellishly difficult to just survive here.

Because if any of the other [races] were to fight a few times outside, the aftermath would be enough to kill hundreds of humans within a radius of several kilometers.

It is a miracle that they can survive in such an environment.

Aliens are at war, and humans can only survive...

Lala...

"…What's wrong?"

"【Answer】This machine detected 【???】 on an unknown individual, analysis failed..."

"…Is that so? But my feelings right now are indeed quite complicated…Sympathy? No…more than that."

Shinji had an ambiguous smile on his face, as if he had made some vexing decision without realizing it... Of course, he wasn't the one who had the headache.

Looking around, there was no sign of any living creature except this robot girl, so Shinji returned to his original purpose and found a place with people first.

When the robot girl saw Shinji suddenly walk away, she hurriedly followed him and hung closely behind him, like a little follower...

Shinji turned his head and glanced at her without paying any attention... But after looking at her again, he paused, threw his tattered black windbreaker on her, and continued walking forward as if no one was around.

"【Question】The Ex-Machinas are not affected by the natural environment, and can withstand most abnormal temperatures..."

"You can wear it if you are allowed to. It is just to cover up your obvious features... By the way, do you Ex-Machinas like this kind of zero-covering decoration?"

"【Denied】The appearance of this machine is the most suitable form for combat, and has no ornamental value."

"It's up to you... and my name is Shinji, so don't call me [Unknown Entity] next time. And you should also pick a name that I can use as a code name."

"【Received】The data is being modified... The modification is complete, and the random naming process has begun..."

"Name result: Xiuvalza."

"…Xiu Wa…what is this? Can't you be a little more normal?"

"Incomprehensible."

"Well... I mean, can't you pick a cuter name?"

"[Question] There is no [cute] option in the random naming... But this machine can indirectly meet the requirement by simulating personality."

"…Simulating a personality? If it's a robot, it seems possible…but I still prefer your current tone."

"Why?"

"Who knows, maybe it's just my personal feeling, I still prefer things to be as they really are..."

“I can’t understand…”

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. After all, it's just what I'm interested in... I'll just call you Hubie, and you named it Hubie Huvalza yourself."

"[Question] Individual [Shinji] said that this title does not meet the requirements, why did you add it?"

"After all, this is the first time you've given yourself a name, so it's okay to keep it as your last name... Also, from now on, remove the prefix before each of your sentences, and try to speak with a more human tone, at least not that bland mechanical voice."

The robot girl… no, she should be called Hubie now. A yellow halo appeared in her eyes. Then her facial expressions and body movements suddenly became natural. Her small chest also expanded and contracted obviously due to breathing…

"Is that right?"

"Um…"

…The efficiency is so high, the guy who invented the Ex-Machina is a genius! But he would never agree to not adding a gender module.

After taking a few secret glances, Shinji quickly looked away and continued to move forward. There were many magical and beautiful lives in other worlds waiting for him ahead, so he couldn't just be obsessed with this little girl in front of him...

In this way, the man and the plane walked in this rocky area for a while, and suddenly "snow" started falling from the sky, but strangely, the air did not become colder.

Shinji stared at the gray snowflake-like thing and reached out to take it in confusion:

"Is this... volcanic ash?"

As a result, the next moment, the gray "snowflake" fell on Shinji's hand, immediately leaving a purple-black mark, followed by a tingling sensation in Shinji's brain.

"!"

Shinji realized something was wrong and hurriedly shook his hands, while pulling Shubi along with him and running to the stone cave nearby as fast as possible...

"What is this thing? It can actually corrode my flesh and blood!"

The expression on Shinji's face was extremely serious. You know, with his current defense, even an ordinary sharp blade couldn't cut him, but that strange falling object instantly caused real damage to him.

"This is [Black and Gray]."

“…【Black and Gray】?”

"Yes, and this is what you humans call it, because other [races] will not be affected too much."

"..."

Shinji silently looked at the increasing number of [Black Ash] falling outside. If he had run slower just now, he would have died now, but Hubie was fine...

"Is this world so malicious towards humans?"

"That's not the case. This is the corpse left behind by the dead elves. However, even though dead, the energy of their existence will pose a threat to every lower-level race."

"However, compared to other races that have the ability to resist, the only way for humans to travel through it is to cover their entire body with clothes, so that the [Black Ash] cannot touch the surface of the body and cause damage."

As he spoke, Hubie returned his large windbreaker to Shinji. This thoughtful gesture made Shinji like this little follower even more, but he didn't plan to take back the things he had given away.

"No need, it's easy now that we know the solution."

As long as we don’t get touched by that [black and gray], then just use an umbrella!

He clapped his hands: "Wood Release? Umbrella Making Technique!"

Then, Shubi stared at Shinji as he created a wooden mechanical umbrella out of thin air. The observer continued to collect data, but found that it was impossible to replicate it.

"Why…"

"what why?"

"Why can't Hubie copy this ability of yours?"

"Of course, I use magic power, which does not exclude humans. Your energy systems are different, so you can't copy them."

"Magic? I don't understand. Hubie only knows about elves and the Elven Corridor, and humans don't have the Elven Corridor, so they shouldn't be able to use magic."

"Hmph, then I will reluctantly break this rule..."

"boom!"

While the two were still talking, the ground suddenly shook, and then a dull explosion was heard not far away, interrupting their conversation.

"What's going on?"

"…According to the elven fluctuations generated in the surroundings, the explosion came from the wreckage of the goblin warship in the southwest."

"Ruins? Who would go to that place to cause trouble... I suddenly remembered something..."

"Hubby, what were you doing before you met me?"

"I was tracking my previous target, Riku Dora, but I have now suspended my observation mission due to your appearance."

"…Then do you know where he is going?"

"The wreckage of the goblin warship."

"It's true!"

Shinji helplessly held his forehead with one hand. It seemed that the boy was not very lucky. However, it was rare for a man who made him curious to appear. He couldn't just let him die like this...

"let's go…"

"Where to go?"

"Go save that kid, and let me see the other races in this world."

……

At the same time, Riku and his two companions, who were being thought of by Shinji, were running away frantically in the ruins of the battleship, and they used the surrounding environment to avoid the detection of the monster next to them...

"Damn it... I didn't expect to run into a [Demon Species] here!"

"Shh!"

The white-haired boy quickly covered his companion's mouth. A huge insect-like monster twisted its body and slowly crawled past him. A sound of crushing machinery was heard, and then it gradually faded away...

Just when they thought they were safe for the time being, Riku instantly realized that something was wrong. His years of survival experience quickly provided him with the best decision at the moment, and he made the choice without hesitation:

"I'm sorry, Ivan...please die!"

The teammates were stunned when they heard this, but instead of getting angry, they smiled at the white-haired boy:

"Is that so... Then I'll leave my Nonna in your care from now on, Riku..."

Then the man took off his hood and earmuffs and rushed forward, shouting:

"Come on! Demon species!"

Another companion wanted to stop him, but was held down by Riku. The next moment... a splash of blood appeared!

The giant insect that had just disappeared suddenly twisted its body and rushed towards the direction where Ivan was running. The entire ruins were shaking due to the opponent's huge body.

Riku and another companion immediately took this opportunity to leave in the opposite direction, ruthlessly and powerlessly...

Both of them held tightly in their hands the information and data they had just discovered. These things were extremely important to the survival of their tribe, so someone had to leave.

Then, in contrast, someone naturally needs to stay...
