[“Wait for me, Shanzhong, we will live happily together. I will wear this ring until I die.”
"Don't say anything unlucky! We will be happy forever."】
The vows made seemed to still ring in his ears. The moment he put the ring on her finger, he thought that they would be like in the fairy tale, and they would always be together until the end of their lives.
We shall sleep in the same bed in life and be buried in the same grave in death.
A gunshot was heard, and Maya, feeling severe pain, turned her head in horror and found that it was Yamanaka who fired the shot.
"Metron, give Maya back to me!"
'Maya' turned around and kicked Shanzhong away. Not only did she kick the gun out of his hand, but the force was so great that she knocked Shanzhong against the wall, with blood stains on his head.
The pain made Shanzhong more sober than ever before. He knew that Maya had died long ago, and he finally woke up from the self-deceiving dream he had woven.
"Kill it, Beidou!" This man, who was known for his cold image in the TAC team, burst into tears for the first time.
Gunshots rang out, and it was not only Beidou who fired, but also the countless guards stationed here. This is the research and development base of Maria II, and therefore it is also the most heavily guarded place in TAC, which is why Yamanaka brought 'Maya' here!
In the hail of bullets, Maya finally revealed her true form. The monster, which looked like a giant shrimp, was none other than the Metron! The Metron was forced to retreat from the tunnel by the hail of bullets fired by the defenders. Hit by several bullets, it knew that its goal of invading the secret research institute in the underground air-raid shelter was no longer possible.
The Metron who came to the ground no longer held back and quickly grew in size, increasing from its original two-meter height to fifty meters.
Ordinary bullets are no longer useful against the gigantic Metrons.
"Yanzhong, let's go meet up with the captain!" Beidou pulled Shanzhong to leave, but the man sat on the ground in a daze, and Beidou couldn't drag him away for a while. "Asshole, don't you want to avenge Maya?"
"Revenge?" After hearing these two words, Shan Zhong finally regained his spirit. That's right, he couldn't die before killing the Metronians. "Yes, I want revenge. I must avenge Maya!"
This time, there was no need for Beidou to pull him. Shanzhong, who had regained his spirits, ran out immediately and got into the TAC patrol car he had driven earlier.
Beidou and Nan Xizi got on another car, but before the car started, they saw an unexpected person.
"Brother Beidou!"
"Lingye, why are you here?" Beidou also felt a headache about this little girl who often liked to run to the battlefield.
"I'll help you fight monsters!"
"Nonsense!"
Reiya's words sounded like a joke no matter how he listened to them, so Beidou naturally refused.
"But what if Sister Xizi gets hurt again like before?"
Beidou's heart was moved, but he still refused, "It's okay, Nan Xizi... I won't let her get hurt again!"
As long as the super beasts don't appear, there is no need to use the Ace Barrier when facing the Metrons. But the reality is obviously not as good as Beidou thought.
"It's Ultra Beast Dragli! Ultra Beast appears again!"
Chapter 7: The Mysterious Giant
The super beast and the cosmic man appeared at the same time! This was the worst situation that Beidou and Nan Xizi originally wanted to avoid, but it still happened.
The Yabo and the Metron, one trying to invade the Earth, the other trying to destroy the Earth, they may not be friends, but they are clearly enemies of the Earth. Now the two have united together, and nothing could be worse.
"Lingye, please leave here. This is not a place for children."
"I want to help you fight together!"
Beidou obviously regarded the girl's words as childish mischief, but he did not refute. Instead, he smiled and bent down, and his eyes were level with Ling's. "Little guy, when you grow up a little bit, when you are almost as old as sister Yuko, you can join the TAC team and participate in the battle, so you must study hard before that."
"But, facing both Ultra Beasts and Cosmic Man at the same time, Ace can't win, right?"
"Ultraman Ace?" Although he felt that the girl was hinting at something, Beidou didn't think that his and Nan Xizi's identities were exposed. "Don't worry, Ultraman Ace won't lose!"
Beidou's voice was very decisive, which was what he believed in his heart, Ace would not lose!
Ultraman is the last hope of the people, so he will not lose, and must not lose. He and Nan Xizi always fight with this awareness, and this time is no exception.
Ultraman cannot lose because he is the guardian and doesn't even have the right to lose.
Lingye originally thought that she had chosen to give up her life and was fearless. She was not afraid of death, so what else was there to be afraid of? But at this moment, she realized that her awareness was still too superficial compared to the Ultra Warriors.
Not being afraid of death was not enough. The awareness she had to bear to protect the earth was even heavier, so much heavier than she could imagine! In the face of such awareness, even choosing death was a sign of cowardice. She didn't even have the qualifications to die.
There was a flash of light between the rings, and in the speeding patrol car, Beidou and Nan Xizi grabbed each other's hands without hesitation.
A day later, the Giant of Light appeared on the earth again.
The Metrons are attacking the ground buildings of the underground secret research institute. Although the base's defense is very tenacious, the attack of human weapons has not achieved any substantial effect, and it is only a matter of time before the defense is breached.
Ace's first target when he appeared in mid-air was Metron. He used the kinetic energy of flying to flip in the air and kicked the alien in the back. Metron rolled on the ground for hundreds of meters like an upside-down gourd and stopped only when he hit a mound of earth where a defensive wall was built.
Although there was no substantial damage, the kick finally made Metron dizzy. Ace did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but kicked the Ultra Beast sideways again. However, this time the effect was not obvious. The Ultra Beast was much stronger than Ace. It just shook a little and did not even take a step back.
On one side is the Ultra Beast, and on the other side is the alien who has climbed back up. Ace is caught in the middle.
This battle was unfair from the beginning. After using the Ace Barrier yesterday, Ace's energy had not fully recovered, while the aliens and the super beasts were full of momentum.
Taking advantage of Metron's negligence, Ace stepped forward and twisted its arm. He lifted it above his head and was about to use a wrestling move, but was knocked to the ground by the super beast.
Whether it is Metron or Ultra Beast Dragli, Ace is confident that he can defeat them if they deal with them alone, but when the two of them join forces, it will be a huge challenge for Ace.
Because appearing on Earth as Ultraman would consume a lot of energy, Ace only had three minutes for each battle. In the blink of an eye, a minute had passed. Not only did Ace fail to find a chance to win, but he fell into trouble.
The killing rays of the Metron and the flames of the Ultra Beast Dragli tortured Ace in turn, causing his energy to be consumed faster. Soon, the indicator light on his chest began to flash.
At this moment, something happened to make matters worse!
There was a huge earthquake, and a huge creature emerged from the ground.
"Oh no, it's a monster!" The TAC team members led by Captain Long came driving the TAC team's tank.
Because of the noise of the battle, a sleeping monster was awakened! Codenamed Muluzi, it was recorded in the files of the MAT team as a terrifying monster with poisonous teeth and the ability to spray heat rays.
Facing three enemies at the same time was simply fatal. Under the torture of the three enemies, even Ace could only retreat step by step.
"Attack immediately and cover Ace!" Long ordered.
Laser guns and cannons took turns bombarding the aliens, super beasts and monsters, but the effect was extremely limited.
At this time, Ace, whose energy light was already flickering, only had one minute left to fight.
Ace kicked the monster away fiercely, flipped over and jumped out of the encirclement, creating some distance between himself and the enemy.
He has to use the Ace Barrier.
Even though he knew that Nan Xizi might be in danger or even pay with her life, he had no other choice in this situation. Both Beidou Xingji and Nan Xizi had realized this from the moment they accepted the Ace Ring. This was a joint decision of the two.
But at this moment, a beam of light fell from the sky!
The golden light transformed into a giant in the air dozens of meters high. Perhaps because he was not used to flying, the giant fell heavily to the ground, and his feet hit the ground, splashing dust.
The giant has a red and silver body, and his 50-meter height is 10 meters taller than Ace.
New Ultraman? Not only the aliens were surprised, even Ace was taken aback, because the new giant was not his brothers, and he had never seen him even in the Kingdom of Light.
The only thing that is certain is that she is also a giant of light.
Yes, it’s not him but her, a female Ultraman.
The giant did not fight the monster immediately, but injected a ball of light into Ace's body. Ace keenly felt that the light was different from the sunlight he usually absorbed, but it also filled his almost dried up energy, and the rapidly flashing indicator light returned to blue.
Standing tall on the ground, Ultraman Ling still seemed a little unreal.
Is this the power that Gaia's light has given her? Ling also felt the strange feeling brought by her huge body, as if she had endless strength in her body. She could move mountains and seas with just a wave of her hand. She just didn't pay attention when she landed, and she left a huge deep hole on the ground. The hard ground at ordinary times felt like stepping on sand and mud at this time. She had to be careful, otherwise it would be crushed if she was not careful.
No wonder people regard Ultraman as a guardian angel, his power is indeed like that of a god.
Seeing that the newly appeared Ultraman seemed to have no intention of attacking, the reckless monster Murucci wanted to launch a sneak attack. It had just woken up from a long sleep and was still not conscious. Its brain, which did not have much intelligence, was acting on instinct.
It runs extremely fast, like a giant chariot, a prehistoric beast. Its weight of more than 10,000 tons makes its momentum far greater than all the equipment made by humans, including cars, tanks, and even ships. I believe even a mountain would be knocked down by it.
Facing Muruzi's attack, the new giant seemed to have not yet recovered. Ace was about to remind her, but he saw her suddenly wave her hand and a series of light bullets shot out from her fingertips.
Gaia cuts! Six or seven light bullets exploded on Muluqi like a storm, not only stopping its momentum, but also making the monster dizzy. The giant's attack was not over yet. Almost without stopping, after swinging the light bullet, she crossed her hands into a cross, and powerful light energy poured out. The destructive light hit the monster's chest. The next second, Muluqi turned into powder in the explosion.
It took only two seconds from the time the giant's light bullet was launched to the time when Muruqi was defeated. The situation on the battlefield had already turned around. Even though Muruqi was not a powerful monster, even Jack Ultraman had spent a lot of effort to deal with its kind. He was able to defeat it so easily. The new giant was definitely not an easy opponent.
Unlike the reckless monsters, the Metrons and the Yabos hiding in the other dimension have their own calculations in mind. Seeing the new Ultraman appear, the highly intelligent Metrons have already decided to retreat.
But after dealing with the weakest monster, the next target of the giant is it. Using the demon star to hit the earth is the trick of the Metron people. For the giants born from the light of Gaia, wanting to destroy the earth is more intolerable than wanting to invade humans.
She was about to use the same trick again to restrain the alien with "Gaia Cut", but she was caught off guard by the super beast that spewed out flames.
The flames sprayed by Dragly enveloped Ace and the giant. The flames contained a terrifying high temperature that was enough to melt the TAC team's special alloy steel defense deck. Ace rolled backwards to avoid it, but Gaia did not dodge. She stretched out her hand and used energy to open a light shield in front of her.
It was a red light shield, with complex lines and patterns on the overall circular shield surface, which seemed to be some strange text. The light shield stubbornly blocked the flames on the other side. Even if the super beast was unwilling, its flames could not penetrate even half an inch.
This lasted for more than ten seconds, and the super beast finally stopped, knowing that it was just a futile waste of energy.
Ten seconds is not a long time, but it is enough for something to happen, such as letting the cunning alien run away. After the flames were extinguished, the Metron alien disappeared and had escaped.
At the same time, in another higher-dimensional universe, the Yabo people also ordered the Ultra Beast to retreat, and a space gate opened behind the Ultra Beast. Seeing that the Ultra Beast was about to escape, Ace crossed his hands unwillingly and shot out his strongest skill "Metalium Light", but the light failed to hit the Ultra Beast that had already stepped into the barrier of the other dimension, and was shot to an unknown place in the universe by the distorted space.
Then the super beast also disappeared.
A battle that was thought to be almost hopeless ended just like that. Ace turned to look at the new Titan. He had too many questions he wanted to ask the other party.
"who are you?"
"My name is Gaia, Ultraman Gaia."
"Ultraman Gaia? You are..."
Ace wanted to ask more questions, but Gaia didn't wait for him to say anything else. He just nodded to him and flew into the sky.
Chapter 8 is called Gaia
In fact, Gaia, who flew into the sky, did not fly far away, but came above the white clouds and looked at the earth from here.
She stood between heaven and earth for a long time.
Unlike those Ultramen from outer space, Ultraman Gaia is not unaccustomed to the Earth's environment and consumes a lot of energy. On the contrary, the Earth is the source of her energy. So as long as her energy is not exhausted in battle, she has no time limit on Earth. Instead, her energy will be unable to be replenished after she is far away from the Earth.
After a night of fighting, the night passed, and the rising sun spread its morning light to the world, and the sky was reflected into a glass color by the rosy glow.
Ling watched the sunrise above the clouds in the form of Gaia.
What is above the sky? This is something that humans have been curious about and yearning for since ancient times. People have placed unexplained questions on the gods. For thousands of years, they have always believed that the sky is the residence of the gods. It is a beautiful, sacred, and fantasy-filled place.
Ling also remembered the picture book she read when she was a child, "Night on the Galactic Railroad" by Kenji Miyazawa. In her dreams, she had imagined countless times taking the Galactic Railroad, going to the Cygnus to see the flocks of birds, or going to the Scorpio to see the flame of life that still burns today, and finally going to the Southern Cross to pray for the health of her relatives and friends under the cross that shines with holy light all year round.
But when humans really fly to the sky, the higher they fly, the darker the sky becomes, until the pure blue turns into pitch black. Then, people realize that the depths of the sky are not friendly to humans.
Children living in this era probably have no illusions about the sky. Nothing good ever falls from the sky, only evil space invaders. The sky seems to portend death. How many children have lost their parents and loved ones because of the terrifying beasts from the sky?
