One against three, let alone Taro, even Ultra Father would have a hard time here. It's not about winning, Taro has no chance of winning, as long as he can last the one minute that the phantom can maintain, it's already a great achievement.
Mother of Ultra told her that Taro had Ultra Heart, and even if he was fatally injured, he would recover quickly with the help of Blue Mother.
As long as he is careful not to let Nexus' "End Ray: Torrent" hit him so hard that no cells are left, it doesn't matter if he loses some limbs.
Ling also felt that she had been tolerant enough, as she did not even use the phantom of Mother of Ultra.
Otherwise, if a mother beats her son, it would probably leave a psychological trauma on Taro.
Taro screamed "Ah" and was hit in the chest by Aguru's "Realizer" in order to avoid Nexus's light feathers. He flew backwards and crushed a sand dune.
"Stop! Stop! I surrender."
If he really was facing an enemy, Taro probably would not surrender even in a desperate situation, but they were Ultra Warriors, and there was also his brother Jack.
As soon as the words came out, the three Ultra Warriors stopped.
"What's wrong? Keep going!"
"No, no, stop it."
Seeing Taro's persistence, the three Ultra Warriors disappeared into the air.
"28 seconds, less than half a minute." Lingye said.
She didn't time it deliberately, but a quick calculation would tell her how much light energy Ultra Phantom consumed per second.
Taro didn't lose an arm or a leg, but the blow from the 'Reckoner' was real and too much for him to handle. He lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, then he returned to his original form.
"Who was that just now? That wasn't my brother."
Although that posture and that strength belonged to Jack, Taro still felt that it was not his brother.
Kotaro also suffered Taro's injuries, and his chest was burning with pain from the "Reckoner". He simply sat down on the sand dune, not wanting to get up.
"That's a phantom. A phantom that possesses the power of an Ultraman. He's my partner."
partner?
Kotaro didn't quite understand this word. Gaia was indeed very mysterious.
"I lost this time, but next time, I will definitely not lose easily."
He had lost to another boxer in the ring before, and just now he lost to Ultra Phantom. But they didn't lose the fight, and that was the case for both Kotaro and Taro.
"That's good. I was worried that you had lost confidence. Mother of Ultra asked me to train you. I think that when you can hold out for a minute against these three Ultra Warriors, you should be able to live up to Mother of Ultra's expectations."
What are the expectations of Mother of Ultra?
Hearing this, Kotaro also felt a little more motivated.
But Ling also thought that she had unlocked these medals at present, plus Mother of Ultra.
It’s still a long way to go before Noah is unlocked, so you can let Taro try it when he’s unlocked in the future.
If he could hold on for one minute in Noah's hands, maybe Taro could really take over his father's position as the captain of the guard corps. I guess Mother Ultra would be very satisfied, right?
Chapter 339 Kotaro, Are You Awake?
Mitani District, Hanamaru Ramen Shop, 3rd Floor, Alice's Home
The corridor leading to the bedroom was empty, Alice was rarely away from her bed. She could stay in bed for a week except to go to the bathroom.
The sound of dripping water and the girl's cries of resistance could be heard from the bathroom.
"No! You can't do this, this is a violation of human rights! I'm going to scream!"
Unfortunately, Alice was the only resident nearby, and the nearest one was the Hanamaru Ramen restaurant owned by Mr. Ming downstairs. So the loud screams could only reach Mr. Ming downstairs, and there was no one else within a few hundred meters.
"It's no use shouting. It was Boss Ming who asked us to give you a bath. It's too much for a girl to not take a bath for five days!" It was Lingye's voice.
"Close your eyes, I'm going to rinse my hair." This is Chiyo.
Meanwhile, Sakura was trying to get Alice to be quiet and stop resisting, and soapy water was all over everyone.
"What do you know? I've been in this low-temperature machine room all year round, and my metabolic rate is one-tenth of that of an average person. Do you understand? Not taking a shower for five days is like you not taking a shower for half a day. Would you take a shower twice a day?"
But the three ignored Alice's strange talk because the girl was obviously covered in dirt.
This is too much. She is such a beautiful girl. Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to be sticky? If it were Lingye, I would feel itchy all over just thinking about it.
And is it weird to shower twice a day?
In winter, Ling would take a bath in her own hot spring once in the morning and again in the evening. Bathing is obviously a very comfortable thing.
I don't understand.
Lingye was quick in applying shower gel all over Alice's body, rubbing her up and down, and cooperating well with Tomoyo who was flushing the water.
I have to say, although Alice doesn't like taking baths, her skin is extremely white and tender, probably because she doesn't go out for many years.
After rubbing it hard a few times, red marks appeared.
Twenty minutes later, Alice came out of the bathroom and changed into another clean pair of teddy bear pajamas. She looked like a doll with a lost soul and empty eyes.
She didn't wake up until Sakura used a hair dryer to blow her hair.
"Well, I don't like the sound of that."
"But if you don't blow dry you'll catch a cold, and the temperature in your room is so low."
"I don't catch a cold, only idiots catch a cold."
Alice's bed is facing the cold air outlet of the air conditioner. Ordinary people would catch a cold if they were exposed to it. However, she has been exposed to it every day all year round for many years. Her physical condition is a mystery. She is definitely not from Earth.
After blowing her hair, Alice regained her composure, probably realizing that the bathing process was over, and let Chiyo comb her hair from behind.
"You guys are really going too far! And then, why did you come to see me today? You're not here to give me a bath, are you?"
That's not true. She took a shower because she just met the owner of the ramen shop downstairs and asked her to do so. Otherwise, no one would have thought that Alice would not take a shower for five days.
It is Boss Ming's job to give (and force) Alice to bathe regularly.
"Actually, we want to invite you to the amusement park. Also, the endangered species zoo next door has opened, so we can go visit together."
"Huh? Amusement park?" Alice's voice was even higher than when she was forced to take a bath. "You mean to ask me to leave my fortress, endure the blast of the sun, and go to a place full of bastards and naughty ghosts?"
As a senior Neet, Alice cannot stand being outside her own field. To her, it is like a deep-sea fish coming to land.
The most terrifying thing is the crowded and noisy amusement park, which is simply hell.
Sure enough, it still doesn't work.
Reiya, Tomoyo and the other two were a little discouraged.
Theme park, there is the word "theme" in front of the park, of course, because there are various theme IPs in the park
Just like Mr. M, Donald Duck, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty in Disney.
Any copyrighted image belonging to Oshima Entertainment will appear in that park.
The previous "Cardcaptor", the current "Tsubasa Chronicle", the peripheral products of the game "FATE", the "Inuyasha" that Tomoyo is currently filming, etc., will be gradually added later.
Ling also intends to contact comic book companies and well-known authors to purchase related copyrights.
In fact, the company has already gained something from purchasing copyrights, although no one except Lingye knows what that means.
I heard before that an author named Hisao Okawa wanted to write a story based on one of the three great monks on the island, Monk Sojun. He was a famous wine-drinking and meat-loving monk who had an affair with a 70-year-old singing girl when he was 40 years old. He was very famous in folk legends.
However, Okawa did not intend to write about the gossip of monks. He wrote about the childhood of Monk Sojun and wanted to make it into an animation. He looked for a production company everywhere. When Lingye learned about it, he immediately decided to buy the copyright and produce it.
Because she knew that the monk whose Buddhist name was Zongchun was actually Ikkyu.
The story written by Hisao Okawa is called "The Wise Ikkyu"
This is an IP that is definitely worth buying at any price, because it is still unknown and the price is too cheap. In fact, right now, Hisao Okawa will be happy as long as there is a company willing to film his story.
In addition to this, Ling also bought the copyright to "Astro Boy", as this comic book was already quite popular in this era, and it cost some real money.
In the future, the Oshima Group’s theme parks will continue to have more and more characters, and I believe they will definitely not be inferior to Disney.
The amusement park has been open for three months and has a large flow of visitors, even on weekdays.
This weekend, Reiya, Tomoyo, and Sakura will all go to the amusement park in their TV drama images, as an advertisement for their own company.
It will be very lively.
Alice is also their friend, and if possible, they hope Alice can go. It's too pitiful for a person to stay alone at home all day.
But Alice obviously doesn't think she is pitiful, nor does she think going to the amusement park with her friends is a happy thing.
Speaking of "Inuyasha", it took Tomoyo several months to finish filming the first five episodes of "Inuyasha". Not to mention the quality, at this speed, no company would dare to hire a regular director.
But this is just a hobby, and we have no intention of making a profit or even completing it.
Since there is no TV station, we use mobile phones to broadcast it for free on the video terminal of "Mr. White Rabbit". Of course, it is uploaded by Tomoyo's account.
It is equivalent to the web dramas of later generations. The difference is that this web drama does not have cheap special effects. All of them are real shots that are called "special effects".
Judging from the performance of the current few episodes, the popularity is very high.
Tomoyo is also very happy - that's the most important thing.
At Tomoyo's request, Reiya also played a role in it - there was no reason, Tomoyo just liked taking pictures of Reiya.
Too many roles are not good, so Ling also chose a little girl named "Ling" who has a small role and is one character different from her real name. She is Seshomaru's little follower.
However, during the filming, Seshomaru, who played the wolf demon himself, didn't even dare to look her in the eye, and stuttered whenever he spoke to her. He was even worse than the little demon who played "Xiejian".
The wolf demon is one of the most powerful monsters in Gensokyo, and has lived from the Heian-kyō era to the present day. Even if Seshomaru in the story really came out, he might not be able to defeat this real thousand-year-old demon.
Because of this, he understood more clearly what kind of person he was acting opposite.
Tomoyo shouted "NG" several times.
How could Sesshomaru be so submissive to the human girl 'Ring'? It's not right.
But Seshomaru's idea was simple. Although he had lived for a thousand years, he still hadn't lived enough. He didn't want to be killed by a slap, but the human girl Ling could easily do that.
It rained heavily that night, and a mining accident occurred at the Tama River Quarry in Yamanashi Prefecture.
The quarry shed was submerged by the mudslide and more than a dozen workers died.
I originally thought it was just a normal mudslide, as that was what the news reported. But since the Ministry of Disaster Prevention did not find any victims during the rescue, even if they were buried, there should be bodies, which was a bit unusual, so I notified the ZAT team.
Of course, there are many possibilities for not finding the remains, such as being buried too deep, being washed away by water, etc.
So the ZAT team just went to investigate as a routine matter.
