Ultraman: Because I am Gatanothor

Locksmiths turning to thieves pose a danger to everyone's safety.

Because you never know when the thief will visit your house again.

Ye Rui suddenly paused, noticing the communication interface in front of him flashing a few times.

He recognized the profile picture; it was of a long-haired girl.

'Karen? Why did she message me?'

Although the conference room was disconnected from the outside world, he wasn't surprised that Karen could contact him; the girl's computer skills far surpassed his.

Thinking it over, he secretly glanced at everyone and saw that they were all preoccupied with their own things and did not pay attention to him.

He disconnected his computer from the large screen before opening the chat window, which displayed a text message, an image, and a video.

The picture is of Ligadron. Judging from the angle, it was probably taken by a passing photographer. The image is very clear, and the angle is excellent, perfectly capturing the monster's imposing presence.

"Yoru-kun, I've found the reason for that monster's creation. It's related to Jeep No. 3, and it can break through the defensive perimeter, and it's also connected to the pilot, No. 3!"

'real?!'

'Thank you so much'

Ye Rui hurriedly shouted, "I've found information about that monster!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and turned to look at him. Kijima Megumi turned to him and asked, "You found it?!"

Staff Officer Tachimura frowned. "How did you find it?"

His department hadn't found any information about the monster, so how could he have found it? This made him a little suspicious.

Ye Rui replied confidently, "Don't underestimate us computer geniuses."

As he spoke, he closed the communication interface, deleted the access history, reconnected to the large screen, and projected the saved video onto the large screen.

"This was found on Dr. Jiang Qi's personal computer at his research institute!"

As he spoke, he clicked the play button.

The film opens with an image of Dr. Jiang Qi, who appears to be enveloped in light. However, this light is eerie; although it is clear and flawless, it is far less comforting than the light emanating from Ultraman Tiga. Instead, it evokes a sense of oppression and coldness.

"My name is Ezaki, and I hope someone can find the information I left behind... It's about this energy-devouring monster!"

When the three of us arrived in Jupiter's orbit aboard Gypsy III, we were overtaken by an unidentified luminous object. It directly invaded our spaceship, intercepting all our distress signals. Not only that, it also entered our bodies, controlled our minds, read our life's knowledge, and, based on our fears, ultimately transformed us into what we are now.

After being controlled by it, I learned that it was an energy entity without emotions or physical form. It was attracted by the energy of Jeep 3 and could merge with any matter. Jeep 3 was transformed into a monster by it. Moreover, it seemed to be sending some kind of message to some unknown entity in the depths of the universe. We were completely unable to resist it.

Therefore, I hope that humanity can find it quickly and destroy it, and we must stop it from sending out all the information about our Earth.

And absolutely do not use any technology involving the three of us; it can control our abilities and knowledge, which are useless against it...

We must defeat him!

All I can do now is offer my deepest prayers!

Chapter 54 The Meeting Ends (Bonus Chapter to thank everyone for their donations)

The video is very short, only a little over a minute long, but it leaves viewers feeling extremely depressed.

Director Sawai asked, "Dr. Kenmura, did you detect any information about the Jeep III's hull among the monster fragments you recovered?"

Reiko Kenmura shook her head and said, "We didn't have time to get tested before the meeting started, but I had Dr. Makino get tested. We'll see the results after the meeting."

In other words, it's uncertain whether the video is genuine. However, many people believe it is, such as Megumi Kijima.

She looked at the frozen image of Dr. Jiang Qi on the screen, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes, and asked, "Is there any way to rescue the three astronauts?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

She looked at Horii.

Horii Masami noticed her gaze, sighed, and shook his head.

Megumi then looked at Reiko Kenmura.

Reiko Kenmura noticed Megumi's gaze and shook her head helplessly, saying, "We don't know what's inside the monster, but from the recovered fragments, we can see the product of the fusion of biological and mechanical entities. I'm afraid..."

Saying "I'm afraid" is just a way of comforting people.

Even the Jeep III was reduced to that state, how could the fragile human body possibly remain intact?

I'm afraid that everything except the brain was probably dismembered by the monster.

Or perhaps, all that's left is a brain.

Lina looked at the people on the big screen, and suddenly thought of something. She murmured, "I wonder if Tiga has a way?"

Upon hearing this, Daigo, who had been silent, snapped out of his daze and instinctively touched his chest.

'Do you have a way to restore those three to their original state?'

Although Tiga lived inside the Spark Lens, Daigo always knew that he could see the outside world.

Ultraman Tiga's voice echoed in his heart.

"This is doable, but with your current light energy, it's very difficult! You might even be on the verge of death if you use that technique!"

Upon hearing this, Daigo's eyes lit up with joy.

Any way is fine, as long as it can save those three humans.

As if sensing Daigo's thoughts, Tiga sighed, 'Then you'd better train hard tonight!'

'good! ’

Daigo, who was in a great mood, quickly suppressed his smile. After thinking for a moment, he spoke, breaking the atmosphere in the conference room.

"Um... everyone!"

The crowd's thoughts were interrupted, and they all turned to look at him, making Daigo tense instantly.

He was speechless for a moment; he was such a shy man.

Director Sawai noticed Daigo's nervousness, and his expression softened. He smiled and said, "Daigo, is there anything you want to say?"

Seeing the encouragement in Director Sawai's eyes, he swallowed hard and said, "That... the final darkness that Yuzare mentioned, I think it has awakened!"

Upon hearing this, Megumi frowned, and the indelible darkness and the terrifying tentacles that dragged the Earth into the abyss came to mind.

She had some difficulty breathing, and a bead of sweat gradually appeared on her forehead.

Yoshitsuji asked with a serious expression, "What's your basis?"

Upon hearing this, Daigo hurriedly searched the database for pictures of the monsters he had encountered.

Golza, Melba, Zoga, King Black, Nelonga!

Among them, he also dug out the photo of the six-meter-tall Zoga.

Then use red boxes to mark the things they have in common.

He looked up, about to say something, when he suddenly realized everyone's eyes were still fixed on him. His face stiffened, and he chuckled awkwardly, "Um... don't look at me, look at the big screen!"

Seeing that everyone's attention had shifted away from him, Daigo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He transformed the mouse cursor into a prominent halo, pointed to a picture, and said, "This six-meter-tall Zoga was encountered by Director Jigang and Team Member Fengdu at the bottom of the sea. The time machine introduced it; they are the kin of the ultimate dark ruler."

Then he moved the mouse to mark the Zoga that appeared in Tokyo, saying, "This one too!"

"According to the information from the time machine, both of these monsters are the vanguard monsters of the final darkness, and they both show signs of being corrupted by darkness!"

As he spoke, he focused on the gray holes on Zoga's body, moving them around a few times to prove his point.

Zongfang, chin in hand as if knowing what Daigo was about to say, asked, "You mean, the darkness we saw in the clouds today was part of the final darkness!?"

Daigo nodded, affirming Munakata's answer.

He said, "Yes, you see!"

He moved the cursor to Golza and Melba, "Both of these monsters were mentioned by Time Machine Yulian, and they both have this mark on them."

Golza's helmet-like armor and Melba's chest were covered in irregular corrosion holes.

"Ultimately, darkness engulfed the entire world, so his darkness must have shrouded the whole world, and these two native monsters absorbed his energy, thus acquiring this characteristic!"

The staff officer looked at the areas marked with red boxes on the picture: King Black's chest and Nelonga's entire body.

They did not initially possess this characteristic.

"You mean to say that the ultimate darkness of this world has joined forces with the unknown force!"

“Uh… oh right… that’s right!” Daigo replied blankly.

'Oh my god, what am I even saying...'

His intention was to let everyone know that the Dark Ruler had been resurrected and to warn them to be careful.

But when Staff Officer Yuan asked that question, he subconsciously responded, because what Staff Officer Yuan said was not wrong.

The meeting room fell silent once again.

Staff Officer Fukami forced a smile, trying to break the oppressive atmosphere.

He chuckled dryly, "Everyone, cheer up! At least we now know that the mysterious being and the ultimate darkness are the same, so we'll have one less enemy to face. That's actually a good thing!"
