"What's the point of you still saying this now?"

"Do you think I'm lying to you?" Beidou took out a square piece of paper from his pocket and threw it in front of Daoliu, "Look for yourself."

"what is this?"

"Remember the tube of blood the doctor took from you in the ambulance? This is the blood test report. Although there are some strange components in your blood, your genes are undoubtedly human!"

Dao Liu was a little dazed. She didn't pick up the report on the ground. In fact, it didn't matter anymore.

"You actually knew from the beginning, right? There's no way V9 could be in the TAC base. And it's the equipment warehouse where the individual equipment is stored. You should be able to see what's on the shelves at a glance."

Even if they were going to bomb the hangar, they shouldn't have bombed the equipment hangar. After all, there were missiles from the Cosmos and Airo stored in the hangar, so it was possible to mistake it for V9.

"I didn't think that far ahead." Daoliu retorted.

She really wanted to complete the mission she received from Orion, but when she stood on the streets of Tokyo, she was confused.

Orion is great and noble, this is the idea she has been instilled with since she was a child. Orion people are powerful and invincible. But when she saw the endless crowds of people in Tokyo, she was shocked from the bottom of her heart.

The endless stream of vehicles seems endless. This is just an inconspicuous corner of this planet. What about the entire planet?

What kind of species are humans? Billions of people, this number is amazing on paper, but if you really face it, the island flow is unimaginable.

However, there are only a few thousand Orions left in the ruins, which is just a group or a "neighborhood" among humans.

If the Orions were really powerful, they should have appeared as saviors when the Yabos invaded the Earth and protected the planet, just as they claimed to be the orthodox civilization of the Earth.

but.

When the Yabo people were eyeing the Earth, they didn't even dare to fart, but were afraid that the pyramids were not buried deep enough and would be discovered by the super beasts. Because the other party was a third-level peak cosmic civilization.

The technological gap between different levels of civilization is exponential, and it is absolutely impossible to win by leapfrogging one level.

Just like a savage with a spear can never defeat a modern army that has a trinity of land, sea and air. The generation gap between civilization levels is even greater than the comparison between savages and modern people. After all, savages who know how to use stone tools and modern humans who have initially mastered controlled nuclear fission are both in the category of primary civilizations, and are equally trapped in their own home galaxies.

Only humans would be so foolish as to challenge a third-level peak civilization as a primary civilization. Or the pirate civilization of another dimension that spans the dimensional sea and intimidates the galaxy!

What is even more unexpected is that humans actually won.

Of course, most of the civilizations in the universe that were watching this battle, including the Orions, believed that the winners were the Kingdom of Light and the two Ultra Warriors, Ace and Gaia. So after the Yabo people left the field, the Orions hurriedly came out from underground.

If we can’t defeat the Yabo people, can we defeat humans?

The Kingdom of Light cannot intervene in wars between civilizations on the same planet. They, the Orions, occupied Earth long before humans, and they have the legal right to rule here. According to humans, even if the regime changes, the "comeback" of these remnants is an internal conflict of the planet.

This was what happened to the Nongmalt people before, but Seven intervened and was punished by Ultra Star.

The same is true for them, the Orions.

But Dao Liu has lost confidence. Because she knows that Ultraman will intervene. Ace and Gaia love humans. And humans are not as weak as the Orions think.

Although there were some confused zombies, most of them were full of hope, which was something she had never seen in the Orion survivors in the pyramid ruins. On the contrary, the two zombies who asked her for toys gave her a sense of familiarity, just like the current Orion people.

It is ridiculous and sad to be obsessed with the glory of the past without any vision for the future.

"Can the TAC team defeat the Orions?"

"Of course." Beidou said firmly.

"Then let me take a look. What you are about to face is the strongest weapon cultivated by the Orions to annihilate civilization, a monster called the Sphinx."

"Sphinx?"

The name Beidou is not unfamiliar. Even children have heard of the riddle of 'four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening'.

"Yes, it's the one in ancient Egyptian mythology. The ancient Egyptian ancestors once encountered Orions. The real Sphinx is even more terrifying than the legend says. It will never let anyone go just because they guessed a ridiculous riddle."

That was a weapon used by the Orion aliens to conquer and destroy the local civilization when they immigrated to other planets. The ancient Egyptians had seen it, but because humans at that time were too weak and could not even be considered "civilized", the Orion aliens ignored it and let it go.

Four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night. Because in the eyes of the Orions, humans at that time were just mayflies that lived and died in the evening, and it was superfluous to even look at them. On the contrary, in the eyes of the ancestors at that time, the Sphinx became the guardian god of the underworld.

As Dao Liu finished her words, as if in response to her words, the pyramid that had originally been unable to be cut even a little bit opened opened by itself, and a huge figure appeared in the familiar red fog.

Like a sculpture.

A sculpture of a deity, but a 'moving deity'.

"Is this the Sphinx?"

It's like the Sphinx cast in front of the pyramids in ancient Egypt came to life, almost exactly the same.

Chapter 173: Sphinx's Killing Move

"Captain, look, there's a super beast!"

"That's probably not the super beast left by the Yabo people," Captain Long replied. The term 'super beast' is used exclusively for the technological creations of the Yabo people after biological transformation of monsters. This one in front of us is probably not one, but it doesn't really matter what it's called.

Indeed, for more than a year, they have become accustomed to calling all enemies they encounter "super beasts". Who could have thought that the Yabo people would lose so suddenly? The Yabo people didn't expect it, and neither did the Earthlings themselves.

"Beidou, did you hear me? You retreat to a safe place immediately. We are about to launch an attack."

"understand!"

Beidou pulled Daoliu away from the battlefield. TAC team opened fire.

A round of missile salvos did not achieve any effect. However, this was expected. The TAC team's goal was to buy time and prepare for the launch of V9. Before that, the monsters could not leave the mountains and enter the densely populated cities.

The Sphinx has a cobra-like tentacle on its head, which spews out high-temperature blue-green flames, which ignite the forest in an instant and turn it into a sea of ​​fire in an instant.

"It's a very high temperature. Judging from the color of the flame, it must be 5,000 to 6,000 degrees. Even the metal will be vaporized."

"Captain, the ruins have been underground for thousands of years. If this monster has existed since then, I think it must have been hibernating. You can try freezing bombs."

Yoshimura suggested. Although there was no basis for his suggestion, they knew nothing about this monster, so they could try any method.

"Okay, let's try it."

The Eagle Flying Fortress itself is a huge arsenal, equipped with special warheads, including armor-piercing bombs, incendiary bombs, tear gas bombs, etc., and of course freezing bombs.

Under Shanzhong's operation, the missile with the condensation warhead exploded above the monster's head, emitting white smoke. The temperature in the surrounding area of ​​more than 100 meters suddenly dropped below freezing, and the flames were extinguished. In the center where the super beast was located, the temperature dropped to minus 220 degrees Celsius. Even nitrogen would condense into a solid at this temperature. This is an ultra-low temperature that can make most organisms lose their activity.

The monster did stop moving, but before the TAC team thought it was working, the ice layer on its body cracked and it became active again. The flames it continued to spray turned the frozen ice into a sea of ​​fire in an instant.

“It doesn’t work.”

Beidou was also a little disappointed. He glanced at the ring on his finger and it didn't sparkle.

"Of course it won't work. If the Sphinx can't stand a little bit of low temperature, how can the Orions use it to occupy other planets? It can travel across the universe. In many star regions without stars, the temperature in the universe is close to the background radiation (3K). It can even withstand the ultra-low temperature of nearly minus degrees."

Indeed, in the universe far away from stars, there is almost no temperature, only background radiation, which is the energy distributed throughout the universe from the Big Bang that created everything nearly 3 billion years ago. 270.15K, that is, three degrees above absolute zero, -°C

A strong person who can physically cross the starry sky must have a strong ability to resist cold. The same is true for the Giant of Light. Ultraman's weakness is that he is afraid of low temperatures, but this low temperature is lower than the background radiation. The trap set by the Yabo people on the planet Gogda at that time was to lower the temperature to -273°C, just one decimal point above absolute zero.

Although the temperature difference from the background radiation is less than 3 degrees, it is a huge difference.

Absolute zero cannot be reached, which means that all energy and matter are absolutely still, there are no quantum tides, and no exchange of cosmic fields. It is equivalent to that even time is not allowed to exist, just like the speed of light cannot be exceeded. Any civilization can only get infinitely close to it.

With human means, it is indeed impossible to produce weapons with temperatures lower than the background radiation in the natural environment, except in a laboratory.

"Are you familiar with this monster?"

"Of course," Dao Liu knew what Beidou wanted to ask, and now she no longer concealed it, "I usually take care of this monster. I was raised by the Orion people. They told me that I was a child of Orion, but usually they made me do the dirtiest and most tiring work."

"The Sphinx is the strongest weapon of the Orions, but normally no one wants to get close to it, because once it gets angry it will swallow even the Orions. So it's my job to feed it on weekdays."

"It likes to eat minerals, but it also won't refuse meat. In order to prevent it from eating me, in addition to the roughage provided by the Orions, I have to go underground every day to find ways to dig out the minerals it likes to please it."

"What is its favorite ore?"

"Carbon 60, according to human habit, should be called 'diamond'. It feels that it is chewier and likes that texture."

Well, it is indeed a precious mineral. So the daily work of the islanders in the past was actually to dig for diamonds?

Carbon is certainly not rare on Earth, so diamonds should not be rare. Diamonds are indeed not rare, and are even more abundant on Earth than gold and silver, but most of them are not on the surface.

The formation of diamonds requires high temperature and high pressure. In nature, pressures and temperatures of several million Pascals can only be achieved in the mantle environment. Humans do not yet have the ability to go deep into the mantle. The diamonds that are usually mined are very few that have come to the surface from the depths of the mantle due to geological activities, which makes them precious.

Once humans have the ability to mine the earth's mantle, so-called diamonds will be just common stones.

With the technology of the Orions, it is not surprising to use some equipment to mine the mantle. It's just that the environment is unbearable for humans.

Although he knew that the monster liked to eat diamonds, Beidou had no idea where to find a large amount of diamonds for it to eat.

The monster walked step by step to the edge of the forest and headed towards the city.

"We can't let it go any further, Hachioji City is just ahead!"

"Kuji, this is Long. How are the launch preparations going on your side?" Captain Long once again contacted the doctor at the base headquarters.

"Captain, it will take another twenty minutes. This is really the fastest speed. The guys in logistics have to go up and carry the warheads on their shoulders."

"Okay, I understand." Captain Long knew that he shouldn't be too harsh. The people in the Logistics and Equipment Department had indeed tried their best.

But twenty minutes, they really didn't have twenty minutes. At the speed of the monster, they would be in the city in five minutes.

Although he knew he shouldn't be weak, Captain Long couldn't help but pray in his heart that at this moment, perhaps -

"Light!"

"Ah, that light is!"

The familiar light, just as Captain Long had imagined in his heart, appeared here, just when humans needed it most.

"Gaia——as expected, she is here."

A giant in gold and red appeared on the battlefield and made an attack move towards the monster.

Over the past few months, scenes like this have occurred time and time again. Gaia and Ace, the TAC team feel guilty about their own incompetence, but they are also grateful to these two warriors of light from the bottom of their hearts.

They saved the Earth from the clutches of the Yabo people and achieved an almost impossible victory, but now that the Yabo people have surrendered, they still need to rely on the other side's strength.

Amid the roar of artillery fire, Gaia faced the super beast. With every step she took, charred grass and wood ash filled the sky, as if the entire earth was shaking.

It started raining. At first there were only a few dots as big as beans, and then in a few breaths it became a heavy downpour, as if the sky was leaking.

The heavy rain extinguished the forest fire, and the dust turned into mud and washed away, turning into fertile land. This piece of mountain forest that has become a white land may bloom again and become lush and green next spring.

Perhaps it was because of the heavy rain that the monster looked at the sky blankly, and even used the cobra-like organ on its head to spit a tongue of fire at the clouds in the sky. Obviously, that didn't work. Gaia had already arrived in front of it.

The simple punch hit the monster directly in the face. The Sphinx's entire face shrank visibly, and then its body was thrown backwards heavily and fell into the charred woods several hundred meters away.

"This punch is for this forest."

Gaia didn't say anything. This was what Konno, the second-in-command gunner in the Eagle, said.

"Okay Konno, Gaia doesn't need your dubbing. She can speak on her own if she wants to. The battle has just begun."

"Eh? Can Ultraman talk?"
