However, Ace really stopped. He raised the sword in his hand, but was unable to swing it down.
Because it is not a puppet, nor is it fake, the images given by the Yabo people are all real.
The brothers gave him the energy, and now they have fallen into the clutches of the Yabo people. Ace knew all this, and the brothers at that time also knew what they would face, but they gave him the responsibility of protection.
Ace thought he could ignore everything and continue to fight the monsters, but when he really faced it, the sword in his hand felt heavy.
"Surrender, Ace, or your brothers will be executed now!" The terrifying voice of the Yabo people continued, "As old friends, we Yabo people are willing to give you a chance to save your brother. Come to the planet Gogda, we will give you a fair duel and allow you to die as a warrior. Of course, you may also be able to save your brother. Haha, who knows."
"This is too much! What kind of fair duel? That must be a trap!" Yamanaka couldn't stand it anymore and fired a shot at the image in the sky, but it was obviously just an illusion and would not have any effect.
"Namo Amitabha!" Konno clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name.
"What should we do, Captain? Should we continue the attack?"
Ryugoro couldn't answer, and the Defense Force's Commander Chinuma was unable to make a decision, and the battlefield fell into an eerie silence.
But the Ultra Beast did not calm down. The spiked ball in its hand smashed towards Ace, sending sparks flying, knocking Ultraman Ace to the ground and knocking down a row of houses. The flying sword in Ace's hand also broke away and returned to the Ultra Beast's head.
The next moment, the flying sword above Baraba's head flashed sparks again, paralyzing Ace on the spot. It slashed with the sword and hit Ace's chest. Ace's flashing energy light stopped, and the huge body fell down and turned into a shadow and disappeared.
Ace, who had already reached his limit, lost, and even his life or death was in danger.
He had tried his best, even pushing his limits, but the result did not change.
In this battle, humans and Ultraman have been defeated miserably.
"it's over?"
It was indeed over. There was no way out. Even the Ultraman had been annihilated. There was no possibility of a comeback. The members of the TAC team and the soldiers of the defense force were all at a loss.
Now that the Ultra Brothers who have been fighting for so long have fallen, what else can humans use to resist?
At this moment, a ball of energy exploded on the back of the super beast.
Baraba turned his head in confusion, not expecting to be attacked again. The energy ball did not hurt him, but it was a little surprised. Then he saw Gaia, who was half-kneeling on the ground, weakly reaching out to him.
Gaia Slash, this is a very powerful skill, but Gaia is too weak to use it completely. The power of the light blade is not much stronger than the missiles of the TAC team. For Baraba, it is not even a tickle.
Gaia stood up reluctantly.
The super beast's brain couldn't understand. It was already defeated. Gaia didn't threaten it at all. Why didn't it run away? It was as if it was deliberately staying there to die.
The beasts cannot understand it, but humans all understand it.
"The battle is not over yet, Gaia hasn't given up, so how can we give up? TAC team, keep attacking!" Long let out the last four words in a roar that almost tore his throat.
This is the first time the team members have seen Ryugoro, the usually gentle and polite captain.
"understand!"
The battlefield, which had been quiet for a short time, roared again. Even if we cannot win, even if we know it is meaningless, the battle itself is meaningful.
From afar, there came a stream of war vehicles, tanks, armored vehicles, missile vehicles, and any weapons that could be driven were continuously driven into the scene.
Just as Commander Qian Numa ordered, everyone has unlimited right to fire without asking for permission. This is humanity's way of showing its determination to the space invaders. As long as there is a single shot left, there will be no surrender.
The continuous artillery fire and the high temperature of the super beast's surface armor were enough to melt the most heat-resistant alloys, but they were still unable to hurt Baraba. Baraba was not injured, but he was annoyed. To him, planes, tanks, and armored vehicles were just annoying flies.
Buzz, buzz, buzz
It swung its whip, and every moment a plane was destroyed. It stepped on the ground, and every second a tank exploded and was destroyed.
The meaningless battle continued. This was the biggest blood-grinding mill, and human life was just an insignificant number. It posed no threat to the super beasts, and seemed to be just a little entertainment for lighting fireworks.
That's it again! That's it again!
Ling once again realized how weak she was. Even if she had Gaia's power and the Ultra Medal, she still couldn't protect anything. Gaia's body had already reached its limit, and even had a sense of transparency, because even the light that made up the body could no longer be maintained.
"Commander, our air force has lost 90% of its troops. Due to communication problems, the casualties of our ground forces cannot be clearly counted at the moment."
"Ninety percent? You said ninety percent was lost? No one retreated?"
"Sir, you gave the order to fire without limit."
Unlimited fire, so they will not retreat until their ammunition runs out. Besides, where can they retreat to? Surrender to the Yabo people and let this place become a colony of aliens? It would be better to die than to linger on like this.
"Should we order a retreat?"
Qian Nu opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Life is like a moth flying into a flame, continuing to wither away meaninglessly. Until the roar in the sky gradually fades away, and the artillery fire on the ground gradually quiets down. The symphony of fate seems to have come to an end.
"How many more of us are there?"
At some point, Qian Numa in the command room suddenly asked.
The herald's silence answered him.
"Really?" Qian Nu nodded. He already knew the answer.
"Sir, do you need authorization for the navy to open fire?"
Chinuma shook his head.
"We'll wait until we have destroyed our last plane, and then let those old men in the cabinet decide whether to let the Yankees bomb our capital."
"But now, aren't all the planes already..."
"What nonsense! Don't I know how to fly a plane?" Qian Numa took off his military cap and threw it on the table. "Back then, I was known as the ace of the 'Osaka Eagle'. I remember there were spare planes in the hangar, right? I can always get one out."
"Commander..." The messenger's lips moved, but he could not speak. He just saluted and said, "I am a humble man. I used to be one of the best machine gunners in the team. Please allow me to ride with you."
"Ah, come if you want."
Chapter 2 V
There was little sound of gunfire in the sky and on the ground.
After a plane flying in the distance also crashed, the earth fell into silence again. In the city shrouded in darkness, it seemed as if there was no longer a trace of light.
Ace was defeated, and Gaia had already dimmed, like a sculpture in the darkness.
So dark.
Lingye, whose consciousness was already a little fuzzy, thought of the past in a trance.
She seemed to always be associated with such darkness.
Both her parents had their own families, and she was the extra one. As far as she could remember, the only one who had accompanied her was the nanny. She probably shouldn't complain, because her father left her a big villa, she had a driver to pick her up for daily trips, and her mother gave her some pocket money of several thousand or tens of thousands every month, so she had no worries about food and clothing.
Her living conditions are much better than most of her peers.
Her parents never deducted money from her, and the only request they never said was that she should not bother them. They had their own lives and families, and they were already happy families.
Her home was big, but it was empty and deserted. Every night it was like a dark monster. She always turned on all the lights in every room, but it still felt dark. Every night, every night, she spent it in darkness.
It’s a bit embarrassing to say that she is afraid of the dark.
She was redundant, not needed by anyone, and only a nuisance.
If such an insignificant person like her could bring a little light to others, she would be very grateful to the old man for giving her some value in her last life, instead of rotting in the darkness in obscurity. Sacrificing oneself to save others, what a noble and glorious word, just like the final reward given to her by fate.
So, did she emit even a little bit of light at that time?
The funny thing is that I am still so weak. Even though I was chosen by the Light of Gaia, I could only watch the collapse of the city and the withering of life, but I could do nothing.
After all these years, she is still the little girl shivering in the dark, unable to illuminate anyone.
She suddenly felt a little suffocated, and her thoughts gradually returned to her mind. It was Barabbas's whip that had strangled Gaia's neck. Gaia threw a punch, but the weak fist had no effect at all.
The TAC team has run out of ammunition and food, the defense force has long been wiped out, and they can't even contact the headquarters. Now there is no one who can help her.
Gaia grabbed the super beast's whip and struck it in vain. Baraba flicked it lightly, and Gaia's body was thrown far away like a sandbag, and fell heavily to the ground.
"That's enough, Gaia, run away." Noriko Mikawa could no longer bear to watch the wounded Gaia, who had paid enough for humanity. The Giant of Light had never owed humanity anything, and it was they who had caused the Giant to fall into trouble again and again.
But Gaia did not run away. She stood up again, the light in her milky white eyes dimmed to the point of being barely visible.
She no longer had any energy. If there was anything supporting her, it was probably because she was still standing on the earth, and it was this planet that was maintaining her last bit of stubbornness.
Maybe in a minute, maybe in a dozen seconds, maybe in just the next moment, she might disappear in the darkness.
But as long as that moment had not come, she would insist on standing there. Why?
Perhaps, he just wanted to bring a little light to this dark city, even if it was as insignificant as a firefly.
"Come on, Gaia!"
Someone shouted in the city.
It's Shoji.
"You little brat, why haven't you sought shelter yet?" Shan Zhong reached out to grab him, but was stopped by Captain Long.
"Come on, Gaia, Ultraman will never lose!"
"Come on, Gaia!" Another shout came from the dark city, like an echo.
That's Jiro.
Jiro saw his brother, the once so proud and brave brother, tied to a cross. But Jiro knew it was okay because he saw the Ultra Star. His brother told him that Ultraman would not lose, and as long as the Ultra Star was still shining in the sky, there would be no hope.
All it takes is a little courage.
"Come on, Gaia!"
With tears streaming down her face, Tomoyo held onto Sakura tightly. Ling would not lose either, Tomoyo knew it all along, because Ling was just like the bright moonlight in the sky, and when you get lost in the dark, you can look up and see her.
"Come on, Gaia!"
Voices came one after another, echoing in every corner of the city. In the darkness, no one could see anyone else, but everyone was the same. Boys, girls, and then gradually, adults' voices appeared. There were men and women. Miyano, Asaka, Matsumoto, people I knew and people I didn't know.
Ultraman will not lose, everyone firmly believes that because that is the only belief that allows them to hold on to hope for tomorrow and live on a planet that has been invaded time and time again.
Ling also heard the call. It turned out that without realizing it, she had been regarded as the light.
She is needed, not an unnecessary trouble. Those calls are from people who need her. This feeling is so warm.
She felt a gentle light, not the sun, nor the earth, but a more quiet and profound light. Wrapped in the light of Gaia was the medal that should have not been unlocked yet.

Unblocked? Lingye's hazy thoughts became clear. When?
