Even if Sakahiroto and Hibino Mirai are not present, they can still see the menu through the communicator and order food without any delay.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the restaurant and started eating immediately...

Over food, drinks, and laughter, the group quickly grew closer, and coupled with their previous shared experiences in combat, they were now considered friends...

Chapter 490 New Mission

Aihara Ryu and the others enjoyed their meal, while Fang Rui, who couldn't participate, decided to avoid seeing it and instead sent a message to Hikari, hoping to chat and relieve his boredom.

Hikari's armor was formed from the resentment of tens of thousands of life forms on Arbok. Now that the obsession has dissipated, the Arbok life forms who had a good relationship with Hikari feel guilty for hurting their good friend, and are therefore trying to make amends...

The transformation from dark resentment to light is a process that cannot be completed in a short time.

Furthermore, Hikari was in a coma during the transition and was recuperating.

After all, he had been overworking himself, and the fact that he hasn't completely collapsed yet is also because Hikari has a relatively strong foundation.

Although he is a giant of light from the Blue Tribe, Hikari's physique is no less than that of the giants of light from the Red Tribe. In addition, the knightly aura bestowed upon him by the King of Ultra makes his strength elite even in the Land of Light.

At this moment, the message sent by Fang Rui was received by Hikari, which roused him from his coma.

“You are…” Hikari asked in confusion.

As mentioned before, with so many people in the Land of Light, it's impossible for everyone to know each other, so it's normal to have this question.

This is precisely why Fang Rui was able to get away with it.

Unless the population records of the Land of Light are checked, Fang Rui is a citizen of the Land of Light.

By the time the truth comes out, all the goals will have been achieved, and losing residency in the Land of Light won't be a problem...

"I am Fang Rui, an ordinary Ultraman." Fang Rui responded in this way, without saying where he came from, so that he could make an excuse later and quickly change the subject before the other party asked.

"There's no need to talk about other things for now. Your problem is very serious. Let me treat you first."

As he spoke, Fang Rui began to transfer energy to repair Hikari's damaged body. The resentment of a planet was not something that could be easily borne.

As his body slowly healed and the resentment of the Arbok lifeforms gradually dissipated, Hikari said from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you so much!"

"It's nothing!" For Fang Rui, it was just a casual thing to do, and there was no need to take it so seriously.

Besides, it's a good thing to have a good relationship with Hikari.

With titles like "Whether the universe is in chaos or not, Hikari has the final say" and "Hikari of the Land of Light is a professional cheat code seller," Hikari possesses a number of renowned titles, and his scientific research and technology are top-notch.

Establishing a friendly relationship with him and asking him to help create a few cheat programs would be a piece of cake.

"Wow! That's very purposeful..." Drag commented.

The dragon temporarily residing in Fang Rui's left arm watched Fang Rui fooling Hikari and gave him a very decisive evaluation without giving him any face.

"Hey! Draig, you're awake!"

Fang Rui was no pushover and immediately retorted.

“Not speaking doesn’t mean I’m sleeping.” Drag’s tone was steady, unaffected in the slightest. When he was in his former host’s body, he often borrowed the host’s perspective to see the scenery outside.

I don't watch it all the time, but only occasionally.

"What do you want to do by expressing your goodwill to him?" As one of the spectators who watched the whole thing, Draig's attitude towards Hikari was quite ordinary.

Draig knew nothing about the other party's identity, background, or anything else. Based on what he had learned in the past few days, Draig perceived Hikari as a paranoid person.

Driven by a single goal, one is willing to burn oneself out.

Drag doesn't dislike this type of person; as for whether he likes them, it depends on what the other person insists on.

"Don't make me sound like someone whose every action is a prelude to something else. I don't have that many calculations. I just want to make friends with him and then ask him to help me make some technological items."

"Isn't this purposeful..." Drag retorted.

What do you mean by not having any calculations? You say one second and then slap yourself in the face the next, right?

"This... counts?" Fang Rui asked rhetorically.

"Doesn't that count?" Drag asked in a strange tone.

"Does it count?" Fang Rui's tone was equally strange.

“I think so!” Draig said confidently.

“…Oh~” Fang Rui didn’t dwell on the matter. As the saying goes, if you do the right thing, you will sit upright.

Whether he is a calculating person or not, time will tell.

During the conversation, Hikari's treatment was over, and his body had recovered. Although the resentment of the Arbok life form, which had not yet completed its transformation, would still cause him harm, there was no need to worry for the time being.

The transformation will be fully completed before any problems arise.

"How are you feeling?" Fang Rui asked.

“It’s great, it feels so relaxing,” Hikari said honestly, describing his feelings.

"What are your plans afterward? Stay on Earth? Or return to the Land of Light?"

“By staying here, I’ve caused Serizawa Kazuya a little trouble, and I should make it up to him.”

Hikari thought about how Serizawa had been urged to run around everywhere looking for Bogaru, and felt that he should make amends.

"How are you going to compensate me? Help me fight the monster?"

Three Ultraman protecting Earth, what a luxurious lineup!

"Hmm..." Hikari responded softly, his tone somewhat hesitant, "Actually, I haven't thought it through. Just helping to defeat the monster seems a bit lacking in sincerity?"

"How about upgrading GUYS's technology?" Fang Rui suggested, which was neither bad nor good.

"No, the Land of Light has regulations that prohibit interference in the development of other planets."

Hikari refused without hesitation.

"To allow invaders to reach other planets? That's not considered interference?" Fang Rui asked curiously.

“Hmm, good question,” Hikari commented. “But I’m just an ordinary scientist and can’t give an answer.”

Unlike other Ultraman, he may also love peace, but his main job is research, and he doesn't pay much attention to other things.

Upon hearing this, Fang Rui retorted, "You're supposed to be Ultraman! How can you say 'I don't know'?"

“Tell the truth, is there a problem?” Hikari retorted.

"No," Fang Rui steered the conversation back on track, saying, "My suggestion is to help the defense forces optimize their current technology. Optimization alone, without upgrading it, shouldn't be a problem, right?"

“Yes, that’s in accordance with the rules,” Hikari said.

After their conversation ended, GUYS's dinner party also came to a close, and the group dispersed to return to Phoenix Nest to rest.

As a special operations force, members are required to be stationed at the base to facilitate missions at any time.

Marina and the others slept exceptionally well on their first night at the Phoenix Nest base; alcohol... was a great sleep aid.

Shingo Sakamizu also got a good rest, with the three Ultramen in the base giving him a great sense of security.

Mebius was curious about the identity of the unfamiliar Ultraman, but unfortunately the other's armor concealed his appearance, making it impossible for him to recognize him, so he didn't get much rest.

Hikari and Serizawa were also discussing some things, which caused Serizawa to not get enough rest, making him feel more tired and his dark circles under his eyes even deeper...

As for Fang Rui...

He wanted to talk to Hiroto Saka about something, but Hiroto Saka was fast asleep and they couldn't talk.

"How awful..." Fang Rui thought to himself, wanting to sober up Saka Hiroto, but ultimately didn't do it...

There's no rush. We can talk about it tomorrow. It's a small matter anyway.

Nothing happened overnight. The next morning, Aihara Ryu and the others woke up, each rubbing their foreheads, feeling quite uncomfortable from their hangover...

"I arranged for the kitchen to make some hangover soup, remember to drink it."

In the office, Shingo Sakamizu pointed to several bowls of soup on the table and gave instructions to the others.

"Okay~" the group drawled out.

Each person took a bowl of soup, sat down in their respective seats, and slowly drank it.

"Vice-Captain, didn't you get enough rest?" Saka Hiroto raised an eyebrow slightly, noticing the dark circles under Serizawa Kazuya's eyes.

The matter has been resolved, so why am I still not getting enough rest?

"Yeah, a little, but I think it'll get better in a while," Serizawa Kazuya replied perfunctorily. Of course, he couldn't possibly tell you what he was doing last night.

"Speaking of which, do we need to write a report about yesterday's task?" Hisahara Teppei asked.

Shingo Sakamizu thought for a moment and said, "Let's write a simple summary!"

Upon hearing this, everyone cast resentful glances at the captain and Hisayoshi Teppei.

There was nothing wrong before, but your comment has added an extra task to our schedule.

“Report…” Ikaruga George and Kazama Marina exchanged glances for a moment before gathering around Aihara Ryu.

"Senior, how should I write this report?"

Senior Aihara Ryu looks like he has a lot of experience in writing reports, so asking him is the right thing to do.

"Oh, okay!" Aihara Ryu puffed out his chest slightly, pleased that his junior had trusted him. He was now a reliable senior!

Full of joy, Aihara Ryu explained very carefully. The two's guesses might be true. The somewhat impetuous Aihara Ryu used to write reports frequently, so he was very familiar with how to write reports.

Hiroto Saka is no stranger to writing reports; although he himself rarely writes them, his father does.

Each time special energy substances are collected, a report needs to be written. He often watched his father write reports, so he was quite familiar with him.

With nothing much to do, everyone was writing reports, including Kazuya Serizawa, who had the most to write.

While everyone was writing their reports, Hikari and Fang Rui were having a private chat.

"Fang Rui, I need your help with something." With that, Hikari began to explain the problem. "Serizawa Kazuya is also a combatant; while he's not completely ignorant of scientific research, he's practically the same. Therefore, his proposed optimization plan has issues..."

It will cause trouble for Kazuya Serizawa, such as him being targeted by high-ranking members of the defense force.

"Well, I suggest you find Shingo Sakamizu. He has some connection with Zoffy. If you reveal your identity, he will help you."

'Zoffy…' Hikari pondered, making some guesses about Fang Rui's identity.

After thanking him, Hikari contacted Shingo Sakami. He recognized the voice that suddenly rang in his mind. He was slightly surprised for a few seconds after hearing Hikari's voice, but his expression did not change.
