Then the light appeared.
The light turned into an arm that grabbed the whip, spun its body, swung the monster up, and smashed it onto the small hill in Kasuga Town outside the gas station.
I was saved again.
Long realized this belatedly.
Chapter 296: Reporter Chasing the Light
Those who help themselves, God helps them; those who are self-reliant, people always support them;
The TAC team never gave up and fought to the end. This is how they have been fighting until today.
And when all means have been exhausted and victory is still unsuccessful, the Giant of Light will appear.
Humanity has tried, and the TAC team has done everything they can. So now Gaia appears.
Beidou glanced at Shibata. It was inconvenient for him to transform into Ace with this guy around.
But if he left Shibata alone, Beidou suspected that he would run to the center of the battlefield to take pictures in the next second.
If you love the battlefield so much, you should go to Vietnam. After World War II, the United States wanted to intervene in East Asia and supported a puppet regime in Vietnam. The war with the local insurgents continued. The monster attacks could not stop the enthusiasm of people for war. The war has lasted for more than ten years.
There was enough material there for gunfire and rain of bullets.
"I don't want to report on wars between people," said Shibata.
Beidou then realized that he had accidentally said aloud what he was thinking.
"The war between humans, desires, greed, are dark enough. But when we fight against alien invaders, we can put aside all past grudges, and even the United States and polar bears can join hands. This is what I want to report, because I believe that there is still light in human beings. I want to use the camera to tell everyone about this."
"Beidou, do you believe in the light of humanity?"
The light of humanity, he had heard this term from Lingye before.
"Of course I believe it."
That is why the Land of Light has sent Ultra Warriors to this planet one after another to protect it.
"So you are a member of TAC." Shibata smiled and took another close-up of Beidou.
A curtain of light descended from the sky, and Gaia and the monster disappeared.
"That's it, right? The reason why everyone thought the war was over in the past six months."
Shibata wanted to take a picture of the light curtain with his camera, but found that the aperture of the camera could not capture the brilliant colors. He pressed the shutter, but there was nothing in the camera lens.
The colors that human vision perceives are simply the result of the brain's inability to distinguish the folds of space and its own information compensation. They are not the colors formed by different frequencies of the spectrum in the general sense.
What a convenient skill, it moved the battlefield to a place no one knew about, so there would be no victims and no more buildings would be damaged. Everyone knew nothing about being 'protected', and instead took a peaceful life for granted.
A group of people started complaining to the TAC team just because the gas was cut off, but they forgot how humans were living in a precarious situation for more than six years six months ago.
Humans are prone to forgetfulness, so they need someone to help them preserve their memories.
This is what journalists are supposed to do.
In the Meta area, the Eagle and the Airo also flew in.
The fighter plane shook violently when breaking through the Meta area. This was not the first time and the TAC members were already used to it.
The plane was shaking because of the gravity difference caused by the imbalance of space, just like a ship passing through a rapid. However, the word "breakthrough" was not quite appropriate, because Gaia did not close the space and deliberately let them in. Otherwise, with human technology, let alone a way to shuttle, they would not even be able to find the entrance.
In the vast desert, Gaia confronted the monster.
The monster had been whipped like a pendulum before, and it had obviously learned its lesson, so it refused to whip the monster again. It just used the fire from its mouth to resist the enemy.
The normal burning temperature of gas is about 700 degrees, which cannot pose a threat to Gaia. However, after being swallowed by the super beast, it was mixed with some strong oxidant, and the temperature was greatly increased.
After the sand dunes on the ground of Meta Domain were burned, the sand and gravel crystallized and became glass. This requires a high temperature of more than 1500 degrees.
"Captain, let's concentrate our firepower to support Gaia!" Konno said. This monster looked difficult to deal with.
"Wait a minute, you see, Gaia is just testing. Remember what Mu Kaji said? The monster is in gaseous form. Its skin and the gas in its body are all part of the disguise. We don't know its true form yet."
Moreover, TAC does not know much about this Meta area after all.
Kikai had previously estimated that the gas swallowed by the monster had originally consumed the stock in the storage tank at the No. 2 gas station. Then, due to an erroneous command to open the valve, it instead consumed a large amount of backflowing gas, paralyzing the supply in several areas of Tokyo.
Such a large amount of gas detonated in an instant is enough to leave no grass growing in a radius of several kilometers from the center, and the area within twenty to thirty kilometers is also within the affected range.
Would such an explosion damage the realm, and more importantly, would it cause harm to Gaia?
The TAC team's concerns are not unnecessary.
In principle, the Meta Field is a part of the body of the Giant of Light that is performing the spell, and the damage caused will be fed back to Ultraman.
That's how it should be.
Therefore, every battle for Nexus was almost a gamble of his life.
Fortunately, Gaia is an exception, because her Meta Domain is essentially exerted by the light energy stored in the medal. Before the light energy in the medal is exhausted, it will not cause any burden to her.
Gaia stretched out her hand, and a light shield appeared in the air. It seemed to be a thin and transparent layer, but it was enough to resist the monster's flames. The super high temperature that could melt sand and condense into glass could not burn through Gaia's light shield.
The flames split in front of the transparent light shield. The originally bright red energy shield looked even more gorgeous in the flames, so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
Gaia Shield
This is the name of this skill. Like Mu Kaji, Ling also admitted that she is not very good at naming, and it is very straightforward. And Gaia never cares about such things.
It’s a simple name, but the effect of this skill is not simple at all.
Standing on this land, because of the endless power of the earth, it will never be erased unless it exceeds the upper limit of the light shield's energy carrying capacity. And its upper limit is indeed very high, at least it is definitely not something that can be broken by a temperature of one or two thousand degrees.
Doubling it is not enough.
Ling didn't know how other giants of light with similar skills used shields, but in her opinion, shields were not just a defensive piece of armor. They could also be used as weapons, and they were relatively safe weapons.
For example, now - Shield Blast
Gaia approached the monster step by step with a shield of light, and then hit it in the face with a shield. The monster was a little confused. Even part of the flames it spewed out flowed back.
Although she has not evolved to V2, Gaia's strength is not weak at all. At least compared to this monster, her strength is superior.
Because most of its body is gas, Gaskegan weighs only 20,000 tons, more than half lighter than previous monsters of the same size. However, it is more than 70 meters tall, so if it is on the sea, it can float on the water.
So when it was hit by Gaia's light shield, its entire body was blown away and crashed into the sand pit, unable to get up for a long time.
"Well done! Hey, that's awesome!"
Konno swung his fist as if he had hit the monster himself.
"Captain, I can't help it. Can we attack? Look, Gaia himself is not afraid. I think even if this monster explodes, it can't threaten this space."
Seeing the monster but unable to attack, it was fine before when it was outside, but he was worried that the monster would explode and cause disaster to the surrounding cities. Now that the biggest concern has been lifted, Konno can't bear it.
Shan Zhong was also eager to try.
"I'll throw another round of freezing bombs." Captain Long thought for a while and said, "You guys take cover."
"clear."
Covering up is better than doing nothing.
Konno pressed the thrusters, and the Airo spewed out a blazing white tail flame, accelerating instantly to an acceleration of up to 10G, which was almost the limit of human beings. It could break the speed of sound from a standstill in less than 4 seconds.
But Shanzhong was faster, and he whizzed his plane over the monster's head, and the sound of it breaking through the air made Gaskegan upset.
The two planes performed stunts in the air, attracting the monster's attention, and then the Eagle dropped freezing bombs again.
The freezing bomb is not useless. It has frozen monsters before, but its effect only lasts for a very short time.
Maybe just a few seconds.
It is enough.
Lingye has currently unlocked four medals: Jack, Aguru, Nexus and Mother of Ultra.
But only three can be bound in each battle.
Mother of Ultra is used for treatment, not for combat, so Ling still chose the first three.
After consuming part of the light energy of Jack's Medal, a bracelet appeared in Gaia's hand.
"Hey, that bracelet, isn't that Jack's Ultra Bracelet?" Konno was surprised.
Before Ace came to Earth, Ultraman Jack, who once protected the Earth, repeatedly used the bracelet as the ultimate weapon.
These are all in the MAT's archives, and TAC will be no stranger to them either.
I didn't expect Gaia to have it too.
Whenever Jack uses the bracelet he is guaranteed to win.
The next second, the Ultra Bracelet in Gaia's hand turned into a blade of light and shot into the neck of the monster that was about to escape the influence of the ice bomb.
Cut in two
The monster's head rolled onto the sand.
A large amount of gas was released from the cavity of the broken neck and dispersed into the atmosphere of the Meta domain.
The monster deflated, like a hot air balloon with a hole in it and no fuel left, leaving only its greasy skin stuck to the sand.
A thin layer, a bit disgusting.
"Won?"
Probably not yet.
If it was Team TAC, they would have definitely thought they had won in this situation. But Gaia did not leave.
"The monster is not dead yet?" Yoshimura found it incredible to see Gaia still standing there, keeping alert for the battle.
Is that thing really still alive? It's unbelievable, it's just a layer of skin left.
After a while, when the TAC team thought Gaia might have made a wrong judgment, the monster finally moved.
After realizing that there was no point in faking its own death, the monster's "corpse" began to emit black smoke and rose into the sky at an extremely fast speed.
That speed was totally unlike that of clouds, and with human dynamic vision, it was almost impossible to capture it.
Faking his own death could fool the TAC team, and maybe Ace, but it couldn't fool Gaia.
The life in the eyes of humans is different from the life in the eyes of Gaia. She sees something more essential.
"Dark clouds" rushed towards the sky.
