Ultraman: Because I am Gatanothor

The others also ran out of the command room one after another, and soon only Norizuki and Iruma Megumi remained in the room.

Megumi rested her chin on her hands, a look of worry flashing in her eyes.

'Please, please don't let anything happen!'

She was referring to Director Ji Gang.

Given that person's position within the hawkish faction, he can at least keep the thoughts of those below him in check.

If he were to die, wouldn't the hawks, no, the entire TPC, be thrown into chaos?

…………

Bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

Feng Du and Director Ji Gang stared nervously at the screen transmission panel, not daring to utter a sound.

Just now, they were trying to drain the water from Dolphin 202 to increase buoyancy and float up, when they encountered a giant eye.

The next second, the entire Dolphin 202 was blown away by a tremendous force.

After Fengdu finally managed to stabilize Dolphin 202, he saw a terrifying scene with the help of the only light source.

What just sent them flying was a strange, enormous creature.

It has a sharp beak and teeth, huge fins growing from its ears, and its head looks like its skull has been lifted, revealing a brain that looks like intestines. The erect skull is connected to the dorsal fin on its back.

It looks both strange and terrifying.

Its eyes were very cold, but when it saw that Dolphin 202 had taken a hit from it but was unharmed, it showed a strong sense of curiosity.

Fortunately, the path that Dolphin 202 was blown away from was next to that cave entrance, so Feng Du had a flash of inspiration and immediately piloted Dolphin 202 into the cave.

The cave was just big enough for Dolphin 202 to enter, which conveniently kept the monster out of the cave.

But Fengdu dared not venture any further, and so they remained in a stalemate.

At the entrance of the cave, one could vaguely see those cruel, glowing eyes.

Director Ji Gang stammered in a low voice, "What...is this...?"

Nanase Kaede replied in a low voice, "It should be a monster!"

"Monster!?"

Sensing Tetsuji Yoshitsugu's confusion, Nanase Kaede explained, "Tsuburaya Productions produced Ultraman before, didn't they? Don't you think that creature looked a lot like a monster?"

After pondering for a moment, Yoshitsuji seemed to remember something and suddenly exclaimed, "My nephew always carries around a monster toy. Now that you mention it, it really does look quite like one!"

"Then how did it appear?"

Fengdu rolled his eyes at him. He knew how it came about, but he couldn't say it now.

As the head of the police department, the other party is only involved in matters within TPC. What if suspicion falls on him and he gets invited to a private meeting for questioning?

"do not know!"

Then he added, "But I know we can't stay at the bottom of the sea any longer!"

"Why!"

Fengdu gestured with his chin, indicating that he should look at another panel, which displayed the oxygen content.

12%

Yoshitsuji frowned. "How could so much have been lost? Could it be because of the impact just now!?"

Nanase Kazetsu nodded, glanced at the monster still lingering at the cave entrance, turned the throttle, and drove Dolphin 202 into the cave.

In this situation, driving out will definitely lead to certain death, but driving inward might lead to another exit!

Director Ji Gang opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing!

Chapter 6 Six-Meter Zoga

Chapter Six

Fengdu piloted Dolphin 202 into the ruins atop R'lyeh.

When the submarine surfaced, Yoshitsuji Yoshitsuji was completely stunned.

He controlled the screen transmitter to look around.

This is an underwater cave, and there is no seawater around. If it weren't for the elevation and depth displayed on the monitor, he would have thought he was on the surface of the sea.

With the help of the only light, Tetsuji Yoshigoro saw the murals all around him.

Due to its age, most of the murals on the wall have weathered away, leaving only a blurry image in the center.

In this mural, you can vaguely see three giants, one in front and two behind, standing on a huge square platform.

Before the giants stood tiny humans, one of whom raised her hands, from which points of light emanated, enveloping the giants.

“This is…” Yoshitsuji asked murmured.

"I don't know!" Nanase Kaede knew the answer, but he just wouldn't say.

At this moment, the artificial intelligence of Dolphin 202 emitted intermittent sounds.

"Tests have shown that the oxygen content in the air is 20%, and there are no other toxic substances!"

Upon hearing this, Nanase Kaede unbuckled his seatbelt and walked towards the side door.

Yoshitsuji also heard the AI ​​system's explanation, and without trying to stop them, he followed them out.

Upon reaching the side door, Nanase Fudo took out the helmet and Hyper gun that were placed to the side and handed them to Yoshitsuji.

The helmet has a recording camera and communication facilities, and most importantly, it can purify some of the air.

The HEPA gun is a laser pistol weapon; a single laser shot is enough to shatter a rock the size of a football, making it the best weapon for self-defense.

"This place looks like the ruins of an unknown civilization; there might be some danger there!"

Yoshitsuji took the pistol and helmet and skillfully put them on.

"This old man hasn't touched a gun in ages! I never thought I'd be able to hold one even though I'm almost retired!" Yoshitsuji said with a sigh as he touched the pistol.

Nanase Fuuto said, "Director Yoshitsugu is so healthy, he can work for a few more years!"

"Hehe... I know my own body best!" Yoshitsuji shook his head and said with some emotion.

He then composed himself, patted Nanase Kaede on the shoulder, and said in a teasing tone, "As an intellectual, you'd better just obediently follow behind me! Haha..."

Nanase Kaede quickly retorted, "I'm not some weak scholar who can't even kill a chicken! You underestimate me!"

As they spoke, the two opened the hatch and walked outside.

The scenery seen through a video transmission device is indeed not as breathtaking as seeing it with your own eyes.

Before them stood a huge stone tablet.

It's estimated to be 60 meters tall.

Although the edges are weathered, it does not affect the mural in the middle.

'My goodness! This is a perfect, one-to-one depiction of the Land of Ultra!'

Thinking about it, he placed his hand on one side of the helmet, and immediately heard a pleasant sound in his ear.

"Video recording function activated..."

Tetsuji Yoshitsugu, who was standing next to him, also turned on his helmet camera.

The two began to move slowly back to back, their eyes constantly scanning the surrounding ruins.

Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out.

It sounded like the sound of something fragile being stepped on.

The two were startled and quickly raised their flashlights to look at the source of the sound.

They found the place empty, with only footprints on the ground, but they were too far away to see clearly.

Yoshitsuji glanced at Fuuto and gestured for him to follow behind him.

Fengdu nodded, leaning against him as he slowly moved backward. Those who could enter TPC were basically all military-trained.

Moving back-to-back like this can greatly reduce the chances of being attacked from behind.

Soon, they arrived at the source of the sound.

Yoshitsuji stood up, keeping watch on his surroundings, while Fuuto crouched down, examining the mark.

This is a mark similar to that made by a duck's webbed feet, but dozens of times larger.

Feng Du did a quick mental calculation, and his face gradually turned grim.

"Chief, I think we might be in trouble!"

As he spoke, he stood up and took over the guard duty from Director Ji Gang.

Director Ji Gang frowned slightly as he looked at the footprints.

Can you tell what kind of footprints these are?
