"And the negatives!"

"Okay, okay, I'll give them all to you. It's a deal, ten photos! You can't cheat."

To be honest, when Ling received the photo, she had the thought of cheating for a moment. But Tomoyo's smiling face, as if she saw through everything, gave her a chill, and she immediately put the thought behind her.

At this moment, the phone rang in the living room.

"Oh, it must be my mother calling." Zhi Shi said, not very excited. Because such calls usually mean that my mother has to work overtime again and can't come home on time.

But Reiya's expression was even worse.

Because as the phone continued to ring, she suddenly discovered that the photo of the super beast in her hand had changed, and the super beast in the photo actually began to move!

It's a voice!

Previously, it was the honking of cars in traffic jams that activated the super beast, and now it is the ringing of the phone. The medium for the super beast to appear from the lurking photos is actually continuous noise!

The phone is still ringing!

"Tomoyo, be careful!"

All Ling could do was run across the corridor and throw the photo out of the window. The next second, a huge monster appeared in the courtyard of the Zhishi family!

Chapter 14 Exposed

"Captain, the Ultra Beast Gamas that was defeated by Ultraman Gaia before has appeared again! This time it is in Tomoeda-cho, Tokyo!"

"It appears again? Wasn't that guy killed by Ultraman Gaia? Is it immortal?" Konno exclaimed.

"It seems that what you said, Beidou, is correct. As long as there is a medium, the super beast will appear. Konno, how is the matter with the photo from before?"

"Ah, yes, the photos were recovered before the newspaper published them, including the negatives!"

"So, has anyone else taken photos of the Ultra Beast?... Send out TAC. In any case, we must defeat the Ultra Beast first!" Captain Long ordered.

A huge super beast appeared in his own garden, and Chishi's face turned pale with fright.

"Hurry up, Zhishi, it's dangerous here!"

It is very dangerous to hide in the house when a super beast attacks, so Lingye pulls Tomoyo outside.

"Wait a minute! Sonoko... Sonoko is still in the kitchen!"

Sonoko was a maid in the Daidoji family. She was responsible for the daily life of her master and was preparing dinner in the kitchen. She ran out of the kitchen and came to the hall because she heard the noise in the garden.

"Ms. Chiyo! What happened outside?"

"Yuanzi, hurry up, there's a super beast!"

"Hey, Ultra Beast!?"

Before he could say anything more, the ceiling on one side of the hall suddenly collapsed, crushing the door. The garden not far from the door was also affected, with a wooden screen hitting its back.

"Yuanzi, are you okay?" Zhishi ran over quickly and tried to help Yuanzi up, but the redwood screen was not light to begin with, and there were some other objects pressing on it, so Zhishi couldn't lift it up at all. Yuanzi fell to the ground without a sound, and had fainted.

"Tomoyo, this place is too dangerous!"

"But I can't leave the garden here!" Chishi said stubbornly. Her skin was originally fair, and her face was now pale.

Looking out from the collapsed wall, the terrifying appearance of the super beast was right in front of him.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't taken the photo of the super beast..."

"No, this isn't Chiyo's fault, it's all the Yawa people."

There are countless creatures on Earth, not just humans. If they are willing to coexist peacefully, any life can thrive on Earth. But the Yabo people are different. They are an extremely aggressive civilization. They have a very high level of technology, especially in the fields of space science and biological science. They can freely transform organisms and create super beasts. Such technology is top-notch in the galaxy.

However, the improvement of scientific and technological levels did not bring about an improvement in the quality of civilization. On the contrary, they got lost in the process of progress, became infinitely greedy, and their hearts were filled with material desires.

The development of civilization has gone astray, with pure utilitarianism, seeking only material things and giving up spiritual sublimation. This is not uncommon in the development of civilization. Such civilizations will eventually be destroyed without exception.

Earth was unlucky, as it was targeted before the Yabo people could destroy themselves.

The super beasts are the modified life forms of the Yabo people, a combination of biology and machinery, so they can spit out flames and missiles from their mouths. They are no longer pure creatures, but man-made weapons.

Ling also stepped forward to help Tomoyo move the obstacle that was pressing on Sonoko, but as a human body, she was just a nine-year-old girl. Even with the strength of the two of them, the mahogany screen weighing more than 100 kilograms did not move at all.

"Lingye, don't worry about me, let's go!" Chiyo was pulling the mahogany screen with too much force, and her fingers were bleeding from the wooden grooves.

Ling couldn't leave Chiyo behind, but it was too dangerous. Looking out from the collapsed wall, the super beast had already noticed this place. It opened its mouth and spit out a missile.

The missile was traveling at an extremely fast speed, but in Tomoyo's eyes, time seemed to stand still, because this was the last scene she could see - it should have been this way.

"Gaia!"

The light enveloped Tomoyo and Sonoko, the warm light seemed to be able to dispel all the uneasiness and fear.

TAC team's Eagle had already appeared on the battlefield, but had not attacked because of concerns about the people around it, in order to avoid accidental injuries. Then everyone saw the light and the giant that walked out of the light.

"So warm!"

"It's Gaia! Ultraman Gaia!"

Gaia is the self-consciousness of the earth. Thinking of what Kaji Yoichi had said before, Captain Long was a little dazed for a moment. That warmth seemed different from the giant of light in the past. It was more intimate, as if it could touch the softest heartstrings.

"Ultraman from Earth...?"

After Gaia appeared, he kicked Gamas away immediately. Then he did not choose to fight immediately. Instead, he took two steps to the outside of the Zhishi family's garden, squatted down and placed the person in his palm on the open ground.

It was Chiyo, and the unconscious Sonoko.

"Ultraman Gaia... Reiya?"

This was Gaia's second battle against Gamas. The overall strength of this super beast was not very strong, at least a few points weaker than the super beast Dragli in the last battle. At this time, there was no interference from the Metrons, and no pressure from the demon stars, so it should be easy to deal with.

But Ling also encountered the same problem as before. The battle between Ultraman and the Super Beasts could easily cause mountains to collapse and the earth to crack. This is the Chi family, and Ling did not want to cause too much damage. What's more, she didn't know whether Butler Kenno and Gensuke had safely taken refuge.

It must be resolved quickly!

Having learned about Ultra Beast's weakness from a previous battle, Gaia immediately focused light energy on his head and wanted to use his strongest skill, the Blade of Light. However, he did not expect Ultra Beast to suddenly throw a ball-shaped object on the ground.

The Blade of Light had to stop because the Super Beast was missing. The ball that was smashed to the ground suddenly broke apart, a cloud of smoke rose, and then the Super Beast disappeared. It turned out to be a smoke bomb! Considering that the weapon used by the Super Beast in the last battle was very similar to the shuriken, this guy is just like a ninja.

Or do the Yabo people also watch TV series from Earth?

The next second, Gaia suddenly rolled forward and barely avoided the super beast that appeared behind her and was about to attack her. At some point, a long sword appeared in the super beast's hand. That guy, after playing the ninja, did he want to play a samurai?

Obviously the super beast had not learned swordsmanship, it was just swinging the sword around, so even though a sword appeared in its hand, it did not cause much trouble to Gaia.

It was another thing that caused the trouble.

"Come on, Ling...Ultraman Gaia!" It was Tomoyo who shouted loudly. Gaia turned her head subconsciously and almost lost her legs. Tomoyo was actually taking a camera to film her fighting! Didn't that guy know the danger?

Fortunately, the members of the TAC team also found her. Yoshimura, who was in charge of the ground work, quickly took Tomoyo away and took away Sonoko who was sleeping on the ground. In this way, Gaia finally had no worries.

The TAC team is indeed useful, and Ling once again realized this.

Even though human power may not be able to pose a fatal threat to the Ultra Beasts, at least Team TAC can evacuate the crowds, contain the Ultra Beasts, test the Ultra Beasts' weaknesses for Ultraman, and sometimes even rescue Ultraman who is stuck in a tough battle. If there were no Team TAC, Team MAT, and the previous Ultra Guard and Team Kurt, the Ultra Warriors from the Land of Light might not be able to win again and again.

So does she.

Ultraman is very strong, but he is definitely not a god. Fighting alone is difficult after all. Ling also remembered the invitation from Hokuto Seiji to join the TAC team. Now she thinks that she really needs to consider it seriously.

But what we must do now is to defeat this super beast.

Gamas waved the sword in his hand randomly, and Gaia simply turned back and retreated, no longer fighting with it. Gaia is an all-round Ultraman, with excellent fighting skills and powerful long-range light skills.

With a wave of his hand, three energy bombs were fired. This "Gaia Cut" was Gaia's best containment skill. It was quick and consumed little energy. Although it was not fatal, Gamas was still beaten back by all three bullets.

"That's how it should be, Gaia is really powerful! Beat that super beast hard!" Seeing the super beast falling into a disadvantage, Konno shouted excitedly, causing Yamanaka on the side to glare at him.

"You guys, do a good job of covering up!"

Konno shrank his neck. Although Yamanaka was just an ordinary team member like him, as Captain Long's right-hand man, he was almost tacitly regarded as the vice-captain of the TAC team and had a lot of prestige in the team.

The beast hit by Gaia's Slash fell to the ground, and the sword in his hand flew out. Gaia took two steps forward, grabbed the beast, lifted it above his head, and threw it far away.

The super beast was thrown out of the courtyard of the Zhishi family and landed in the distant mountains and forests. Then, without waiting for the super beast to stand up, Gaia made a cross with his hands and poured out high-energy light.

Quantum rays!

The next second, the super beast hit by the high energy was shattered in the explosion.

A clean and decisive victory. Hokuto Seiji, who was watching the entire battle on the Gaia fighter, nodded silently. Gaia Ultraman, her fighting power is top-notch even in the Kingdom of Light.

After the battle, Gaia did not leave immediately as usual, but picked up the long sword dropped by the super beast before, then walked to the TAC team and placed the long sword on the ground.

Gaia and Captain Long looked at each other for a moment before flying into the sky.

Captain Long looked at the direction Gaia left, then looked at the sword, his expression thoughtful.

Chapter 15 The Brightest Star

"This is the film negative." Ling also gave the film she got from Tomoyo to Beidou. Although she could handle it herself, she chose to hand over the film in order to let the TAC team rest assured to close the case.

Beidou checked the film and nodded, "I did receive it, and now we will leave it to our TAC team. Thank you so much for this incident!"

After all the photos and negatives were cleared, the attack by the Ultra Beast Gamas came to an end.

"There's also something else," Bokuto said, causing Ling, who was about to leave, to stop in her tracks.

"what happened?"

"Captain Long has ordered the long sword of Ultra Beast Gamas to be sent to the research lab. What do you think?"

"After all, it's alien technology. There's nothing wrong in studying it. After all, human technology is too weak now." Ling said jokingly, but her words were not just a joke.

She had deliberately placed the sword in front of the TAC team before, and Captain Long understood what she meant.

Humanity's technological level may not be the most backward in the entire galaxy, but it is still far behind top civilizations like the Yabo people. Perhaps in some areas, human technology is surprising, such as the Maria missile that was successfully tested a few days ago and can destroy a planet in one go, but apart from the occasional "black technology", human basic science is still too backward.

In the field of energy technology, humans have only just begun to explore nuclear energy, not to mention the controlled nuclear fusion that is still a long way off. Even controlled nuclear fission is still in the process of being perfected. In the field of material technology, humans have not yet entered the nano era, and their understanding of molecules and atoms is still superficial. In the field of life technology, there are still countless diseases that humans regard as "incurable diseases", and humans' understanding of life is just beginning.

The super beast's sword is, after all, a weapon of the Yabo people, and its material is a super-strong alloy that humans have never seen before. If humans can study it thoroughly, they may make some progress in the field of material technology.

The progress obtained from "black technology" is impossible to achieve overnight due to the lack of support from other areas of the technology tree, but as long as we start from now and actively absorb alien technology, it will have a huge promoting effect on the development of human science and technology.

People can only know a certain kind of "black technology" but not why it works. However, if a large number of "black technologies" are piled up, after a certain number, they can complement each other, overtake others and improve the human technology tree.

The invasion of aliens and monsters is a challenge for mankind, but also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Humans cannot always expect the protection of Ultraman, and this refers not only to the Ultraman of the Land of Light, but also to Gaia.

Ling always remembers that what is truly terrifying is not the invaders from the universe, but the dark side of the earth itself, and the dark side in the hearts of all creatures living on the earth - the root of destruction.

No one knows when the Source of Destruction will wake up. It may be a thousand years later, or it may be the next second.

The battle with the source of destruction was difficult even for Gaia. Although Gaia had won every victory in the past, the price of such a tragic victory was too high. Otherwise, there would not have been four mass extinctions of life on Earth in the long river of history. Those ancient civilizations that were annihilated had long disappeared into the unknown depths of history.
