Ultraman: Because I am Gatanothor

"Aren't you a time machine?"

You Lian replied coldly, "It is indeed a time machine, but I transformed myself into a highly advanced artificial intelligence and stored myself inside it, precisely to guide humanity in the next era and prevent us from making the same mistakes!"

"Error? What error?"

The sorrow on You Lian's face deepened.

"Humanity's desire to enter the next era cannot be achieved solely through strength. Our technology has already developed into the 'God Creation Project,' capable of creating gods, yet it still could not withstand the ultimate darkness and was destroyed in the ancient times."

"You must remember that humanity itself also possesses the greatest power, and that is the light of the soul!"

"As long as humanity can offer up their spiritual light and gather it into Tiga's body before the final darkness descends, then they will surely be able to break through the darkness!"

Hearing so much all at once, Daigo's mind was in a complete mess, but he asked the question that concerned him the most.

Why did I turn into a giant?

Yu Lian turned around and looked at Daigo, a hint of lingering affection flashing in her eyes.

"Only you can do it, because you are human, and you are light!"

Upon hearing this, Daigo paused, then repeated a sentence to himself.

"Light? Humans?"

He pulled the Spark Lens from his chest, a look of panic flashing in his eyes. "No, I'm just an ordinary human being. I needed Director Sawai to give me a second chance to join the GUTS team. I'm not like the other members of the GUTS team. I'm not a top student, not a scientist, and not an ace pilot. How could I be the light? Could there be a mistake?"

The thought that the future of humanity rests on his shoulders weighs on him so heavily that he can hardly breathe.

He is not the same person he will be in the future. Faced with such immense pressure, he instinctively wants to escape.

Looking at him, Yu Lian said, "Daigo... you are Ultraman Tiga. Even if you resist this identity, I believe you will eventually take it on!"

After saying that, she swayed and disappeared from the command room.

As she disappeared, the lights in the command room brightened, and Ye Rui stared blankly at the lights, completely bewildered.

"That's strange! I'll call the logistics department to come and replace the light bulb later!"

"Hey, Daigo, what's that in your hand?" As soon as he turned around, he noticed that Daigo had a delicate hand stick in his hand, which looked a bit like a magic wand he had seen before.

A strange look appeared on his face. "Daigo, you wouldn't be...?"

A grown man playing with little girls' things, Daigo couldn't be...

Daigo hurriedly explained, "It's not what you think, it...it...it's the gift I'm going to give!"

"Yes, that's right! That's the gift they gave us!"

Seeing his panicked expression, Ye Rui quickly replied, "I understand, what boy doesn't dream of being a princess?"

After saying that, he gave Daigo a strange smile, returned to his computer desk, and started playing his game.

"Sigh..." Daigo slowly withdrew his outstretched hand.

I am filled with immense bitterness.

He put the magic light stick back into his inner pocket, sat back down, and started daydreaming.

Chapter 22 The Irreparable Stone Statue

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After playing a game, Ye Rui felt a little hungry. He looked up at Daigo and Fengdu and asked, "I'm a little hungry. Do you want to go get something to eat together?"

Upon hearing this, Daigo shook his head; he currently had no appetite.

Fengdu glanced at the time and smiled at Ye Rui, "It's lunchtime in the cafeteria now, so it'll probably be crowded. Let's grab some snacks to tide us over!"

Ye Rui was taken aback, turned his head to look around, but did not find any snack bags.

Daigo had the same expression.

Feng Du smiled slightly and pointed in the direction of the storage cabinet, "Trust me, it's definitely there!"

"Uh……"

The two instinctively followed Fengdu to the storage cabinet.

Feng Du found Lina's storage locker and explained to the two of them with a smile, "Knowing my sister as I do, she would definitely store food here!"

When they were children, he and Lina were in the same class. Once, during a summer camp organized by the school, they accidentally rescued a squirrel.

These furry creatures were irresistibly attractive to little girls, so Lina started raising squirrels.

Over time, Lina was influenced by the squirrel's habit of hoarding food, so whenever she arrived at a new place, the first thing she did was not to familiarize herself with the environment, but to buy some food and store it.

Enter the password to open the storage cabinet door.

Each winning team has one of these storage cabinets.

Daigo was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Xiaofeng, how did you know your sister's password?"

Opening the door, Feng Du chuckled and replied, "My sister and I grew up together. How many passwords could she possibly have? Besides, I secretly looked at them this morning!"

As he spoke, he took out all the snacks and gave some to Daigo and Nori.

Daigo held the snacks, feeling somewhat conflicted, but the thought that they were Rena's snacks gave him a strange sense of excitement.

Ye Rui looked at the puffed snacks in his hand, swallowed hard, and wanted to eat them, but the rationality he retained made him ask a question.

"Isn't what we're doing theft? If Lina finds out, will she beat us to death?"

He had the privilege of witnessing Lina's violent side, and ever since then, he has always held Lina in high esteem and never complained about her words.

Lina once believed that Ye Rui was actually her younger brother.

Feng Du had already torn open a bag of snacks, picked up some potato chips, and started eating. Hearing this, he shrugged and said, "How can this be called stealing? Look at the date on it, it's almost expired. If we don't eat it, wouldn't it be a waste?"

Daigo and Nori picked up a bag of snacks and checked the date. "Huh, it really is, it's only a month away from expiring!"

"So don't worry, she can eat it. I'll make sure she gets something to eat when I get back tomorrow!"

With their burdens lifted, the two ate with peace of mind.

Although they all knew these snacks weren't very healthy, they couldn't resist how delicious they were.

Daigo, in particular, would think of Rena's snacks with every bite, and felt a strange excitement in his heart.

…………

Inside Dr. Tango's laboratory.

Dr. Dango is not a good person; he is arrogant and conceited, and is very unpopular in TPC.

However, his talent is truly exceptional, especially in physics, where he has achieved many remarkable results.

He also has a very deep understanding of biology.

At the entrance of the laboratory stood two armed police officers, their eyes gleaming, maintaining extremely strict control over the interior.

The laboratory contains countless testing instruments.

Together, we monitor a cube-shaped box in the middle.

This box is a special box, containing some of the sand from the stone statues destroyed by the monster Golza in the Land of Tiga.

An obese man with glasses and an extremely unpleasant appearance excitedly looked at the data displayed on the computer screen.

"Only some of the substances in this sand can be detected! Most of the substances are completely undetectable!"

"What kind of substance is this? It glows? This is incredible!"

He lay on the secret box, his eyes filled with longing for the unknown.

Upon hearing this, Deputy Captain Zong Fang, who was leaning against the door, asked, "Doctor, is there any way to restore this sand to the stone statue?"

Dr. Tango seemed not to have heard him at all, and continued to look at the secret box in front of her.

"It's truly a miracle!"

Seeing this, Zong Fang looked slightly annoyed, but knowing the other party's temperament, he raised his voice again and asked, "Dr. Danhou!"

Perhaps the voice was a bit loud, because Dr. Dango frowned, his expression displeased. He stood up and said in a mocking tone, "Restore the giant statue? You really dare to dream!"

"Isn't it possible?"

His idea was to restore the damaged statues to their original state and then have someone slowly study how the giants came back to life.

If this method works, they might have three powerful allies when facing the monster.

After all, if one giant has been revived, then the remaining two should also be able to be revived.

Dr. Tango glanced at Vice Captain Munakata, then turned back and flipped to a page of a report with lines drawn on it.

He tossed the report directly to Deputy Captain Zong Fang and said indifferently, "This is a report obtained from a large piece of gravel using particle transmission analysis."

The lines above are traces left inside the statue; I guess they were the key factor that drove the giant's movements.

Deputy Captain Zongfang was taken aback, staring at the dense yet orderly lines on the surface. As if he had figured something out, he tentatively asked, "You mean..."

"That's right. The giant statue's body should be like our human body, filled with blood vessels and other sophisticated instruments. We humans don't even understand our own bodies, so do you think we can restore the giant statue?"

"If you just want a form, go find a bricklayer; they're much better at it than I am!" With that, he waved his hand impatiently and turned back to studying the sand inside the box.
