Entertainment: You're asked to make a graduation project, but you're asked to film Ultrama

A week passed in the blink of an eye amidst the heated discussions and eager anticipation of tokusatsu fans.

At 8 PM on Friday, the playback channels of major video platforms opened on time.

As the rousing opening theme ended, the screen gradually lit up.

The title of episode 7 of "Ultraman Mebius" slowly appeared in the center of the screen—"Vanton's Lost Items".

The scene begins in the command center.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

"The report says that a spacecraft was detected hovering outside the atmosphere."

Secretary Wan, holding the documents, reported to everyone.

Aihara Ryu frowned, immediately beginning to fill in the blanks with his preconceived notions:

"Were they helpers that monster summoned?"

"It could also be from the Blue Giant's side!"

George crossed his arms and replied:

Who cares which side they're on?

Toriyama, the aide, nodded vigorously, waving his hand with a resolute expression.

"It would be best to launch a preemptive strike as soon as possible!"

These words left Wei Lai, who was standing nearby, feeling quite uncomfortable.

He stood up abruptly, and asked somewhat impatiently:

"Are you sure there are enemies inside that spaceship?"

However, he received Toriyama's matter-of-fact reply.

"We've fought countless battles with aliens in the past!"

"This period of frequent monster appearances was also a time when many aliens frequently attacked Earth!"

Marina, standing to the side, also sighed softly; her calm description revealed a heavy truth:

"Indeed, the psychological trauma at that time led most Earthlings to develop anti-cosmic sentiments, which is also a fact."

Listening to her teammates' words, Mirai, an alien, had a hint of disappointment flash in her eyes.

[Sigh, this is the Dark Forest theory; humanity is terrified of aliens.]

[In "Preemptive Strike," Commander Bird's move was actually quite sound; one should always be wary of others.]

[The future, which so much loves humanity, discovers that humanity harbors such deep-seated wariness and prejudice towards extraterrestrials.]

Is this the crisis of trust that this episode is going to explore?

"Has the passenger been confirmed?"

Secretary Maru shook her head helplessly:

"Because the communication was sent in a universal language, headquarters is translating it using a universal language translator, which makes it quite difficult to process."

"Could I listen to that communication?"

Tang Zheping immediately perked up.

A nonsensical alien voice, completely illogical, rang out in the command room.

"It's a very difficult cosmic language to understand."

Tang Zheping wore headphones, his brows furrowed.

Just then, Future casually remarked from the side:

"You have a strong sense of cosmic dialect."

The air fell silent for a second.

Tang Zheping turned his head and looked at him with a face full of surprise:

"You understand this about the future too?"

Suddenly realizing he'd just exposed himself yet again, he quickly waved his hand sheepishly and awkwardly tried to cover it up:

"Ah... I'm slightly interested..."

"Okay, hurry up and translate it!"

[The master of self-deprecation is back online!]

[Zheping: Did I say this was a dialect?]

[A daily tip for self-deprecation]

[Future: This dialect is too heavy. Even in my hometown, the Land of Light, we don't have this accent.]

[Translation: Foreigner: "Chinese is so hard to understand!" Xiaomeng: The Minnan dialect does indeed have a heavy accent.]

【Xiao Meng, your disguise skills are so good, you're practically wearing your underwear on the outside!】

[Everyone in the defense team knows there's an Ultraman among them; it's an open secret.]

Thanks to Tang Zheping's efforts, the translation finally made progress.

"We will land at the designated coordinates six hours later, according to your planet's time."

Tang Zheping read out the translation results.

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.

"Six hours later means..."

"This communication was sent approximately five hours ago."

Tang Zheping added.

These words immediately caused an uproar in the command room.

"So, we're almost there?!"

The scene shifts, and the GUYS team members are now fully armed, piloting their fighter jets to the designated coordinates.

This is the northern part of Akatsuki.

The men held their guns, ready for battle.

Just then, a dazzling light suddenly descended from the sky.

As the light faded, a strangely shaped alien with a large belly and eyes like snail antennae appeared out of thin air on the street.

"Time is up."

Aihara Ryu held his gun warily.

"Where did this guy come from?"

"Did it travel from outside the atmosphere?"

Just as everyone was preparing to open fire at any moment.

The alien raised his hands and spoke in a very simple and honest voice, spouting strange gibberish.

Tang Zheping served as the translator in the middle.

He could barely understand what the other person was saying and spoke to his teammates behind him.

"Please put your gun away."

"I need your help finding something..."

"Looking for something?"

Tang Zheping also managed to utter some broken, garbled cosmic language.

The alien patted its round belly and mumbled a few more words.

Before Teppei could even process the words in his mind, Mirai spoke:

"He wants some food..."

The alien's eyes widened, and its little hand pointed towards the future.

It's clear that the prediction about the future was correct.

"???"

【? ? ? ? 】

[The teammate's aircraft carrier turned around.]

[Hahaha! He's exposed himself again!]

[So, after all that, he's just an alien begging for food?]

【Xiao Meng is so cute!】

[This art style changed so quickly! I thought we were going to fight alien invaders!]

The scene then shifts to the lavish restaurant inside the GUYS base.

Despite his complaints, Assistant Toriyama still laid out a lavish spread of Earthly delicacies and generously declared:

Please don't be shy, enjoy your meal.

"As a representative of Earthlings, this time it's on me."

This alien, known as the Vantonian, immediately revealed his true foodie nature.

However, before eating, it suddenly stood up, muttered strange syllables, and danced a very bizarre dance.

This startled everyone.

"That was a ritual before eating, wasn't it?"

Secretary Maru guessed.

After the ceremony, the Vantonians rushed to the dining table and began to feast.

It not only ate all the food on the plate, but even chewed up and swallowed the porcelain plate containing the food with a few crunching bites!

Toriyama's assistant watched in stunned silence, his heart bleeding.

They quickly stepped forward to stop them.

The Vanton aliens also ate all the food on the table in a very short time.

"In the blink of an eye, they've used up half a year's worth of my meal vouchers..."

He wailed in despair, tears welling in his eyes.

Hahaha, they even ate the plate! Their appetite is unmatched!

The aide's heartbreak was transformed into a QR code.

[My Treat] [My Meal Vouchers for Half a Year]

She looked thin and bony with a large belly; it turned out to be edema caused by hunger.

While the Fantonians were feasting, Tang Zheping explained the whole story to everyone in the command room.

"Vanton is suffering from a severe food crisis."

"While searching for food, the Vantonians developed an emergency food ration called 'Scrap 929'."

"But the spaceship malfunctioned on its way back to its home planet."

"The successfully developed product 929 has landed on Earth."

"The spaceship landed to retrieve it."

After listening, Aihara Ryu was somewhat puzzled:

"To alleviate the food crisis on our planet, we need a large amount of emergency food, right?"

"This piece of junk 929 has been compressed to such a small size, where can you find something this tiny?"

The item 929 is about the size of a soccer ball.

"It's alright, the Vantonians are very confident about the crash site."

[Eat your fill and then sleep—this alien is so carefree!]

How can they trust Earthlings so much?!

They came here looking for life-saving food, but ended up eating a meal on Earth and falling asleep.

Since the owner is asleep, the task of finding the lost item falls to the GUYS team members.

To avoid causing panic among the citizens, the search for "Scrap 929" cannot involve the Vantonians and must be conducted in secret.

Their future actions are quite swift.

He walked alone on a secluded street, closed his eyes, and used Ultra's sensory abilities.

Before long, he pinpointed the target's location precisely.

"I found it!"

Good grief, so you're not even going to pretend about the future anymore?

[Finding things without radar, just using Ultraman's X-ray vision—pure cheating!]

[Teammate: How did you know you were here? Future: Ah, oh oh oh…]

The group quickly assembled in an abandoned factory.

In the factory's open space, there was a special container that shimmered with a faint light. Inside was a highly compressed emergency food ration called "Zanpai 929".

"Is this what they call 'scumbag 929'?"

Aihara Ryu stepped forward and examined the small thing.

Marina's comment:

"This doesn't look like anything delicious."

Although everyone was also puzzled, how could the future be found?

"Let's finish this quickly and call it a day."

George the dove also came over, ready to collect the items.

However, in that very moment when everyone relaxed their vigilance...

In the abandoned corridor on the second floor of the factory, the mysterious woman in white who had secretly controlled monsters on many occasions appeared silently like a ghost!

She looked down at the scumbags below, her eyes gleaming with greed.

She stuck out her unusually long tongue and licked it vigorously around her lips, as if she were seeing the most delicious delicacy in the entire universe.

Without any warning, the woman in white suddenly waved her hand.

An invisible force of thought erupted instantly.

"Bang--!"

The specially made container below, which contained Item 929, exploded under the impact of the telekinetic energy, turning into countless fragments scattered all over the ground.

Freed from the constraints of its container, the tiny shard 929, originally only the size of a palm, suddenly began to shimmer with an eerie light.

Then, as if it had come to life, its surface began to wriggle and expand wildly.

In just a few seconds, it expanded from a small cube into a huge chunk of meat, as big as a small hill!

"What happened?"

"It's expanding!"

Aihara Ryu was greatly alarmed.

The sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.

The scene immediately switched back to the command center at the GUYS base.

Tang Zheping looked at the monitoring data constantly being transmitted back on the screen, and his forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat.

He quickly ran to ask the Vantonian who was taking a nap after lunch!

"How could this be... why didn't you say so sooner!"

"What on earth happened?!"

Aihara Ryu asked anxiously over the communicator.

Tang Zheping took a deep breath and announced this terrible conclusion in despair:

"At this rate, it'll be the end of the world!"

Upon hearing this, Toriyama's assistant, who was standing to the side, was so frightened that his eyes rolled back, his pupils widened like copper bells, and he couldn't even catch his breath before falling backward.

"What does this mean?"

Tang Zheping quickly explained the scientific principles behind it:

"The main component of 'Disease 929' is protein, which is an organic nitrogen compound!"

Earth's atmosphere contains abundant carbon dioxide and nitrogen!

"In other words, Item 929 will continuously expand using Earth's atmosphere as its material!"

He stared at the chunk of flesh on the screen, its size visibly increasing exponentially, and swallowed hard.

"I'm afraid it will grow indefinitely until it engulfs the entire Earth!"

Holy crap! Is this emergency food this hardcore?!

[Air fryers are nothing, this is called an air-based meat-making machine!]

[This would be a godsend in a famine-stricken area, but on Earth it's a potential apocalyptic disaster!]

[Absorbing carbon and nitrogen from the atmosphere to generate an unlimited amount of proteins? This alien technology is incredible!]

[Oh no, oh no, I'm really going to become Bruton now.]

"Can we compress the Vanton aliens again?"

The group asked anxiously.

Tang Zheping shook his head, completely shattering his illusions:

"That would require a spaceship to do."

"However, due to a malfunction, the Vantonians' spaceship was unable to re-enter the atmosphere!"

The atmosphere instantly plummeted to freezing point.

Is humanity about to be wiped out by an inflated cookie?

Just when everyone was at a loss and thought there was no way to solve the problem.

Captain Sakaki put down his coffee cup, his eyes becoming incredibly resolute.

He proposed a battle plan that was so audacious it bordered on insane:

"Isn't there also GUYS Meteor Technology?"

He turned to look at the acting director, Misaki Yuki, who was connected on the big screen; the two had clearly communicated in advance.

Miki Yuki calmly issued the battle orders:

"Now let me confirm the operational strategy again."

"Using a high-altitude balloon, at an altitude of 60,000 meters, we will set up a meteor-technology gravity deflector!"

"Power will be provided by the Loader!"

"Attract the debris 929, along with the surrounding air, up here!"

She spoke faster, each word ringing with conviction, demonstrating exceptional tactical acumen and decisiveness.

"Scrap 929, sucked up by five times the force of gravity, will break the speed of sound in seven seconds!"

"Within the one minute allotted by the meteor technology, it can reach the gravity deflection disk!"

"Then, using inertia, we'll propel it into the depths of space!"

"This way, it can be successfully recovered by the Vanton alien spaceship that's currently in outer space!"

After hearing this highly precise, high-risk, yet theoretically feasible combat plan, everyone in the command room gasped.

[Using 5G acceleration to launch this thing back into space like a cannonball? That's hardcore!]

This is such a test of execution! So many operations need to be completed in just one minute!

Meteorite technology, forever a god!

"Success or failure rests on our shoulders."

Aihara Ryu clenched his fist.

As the command was given, GUYS's fighter jets quickly took off and began setting up gravity deflectors at an altitude of 60,000 meters.

Inside the abandoned factory on the ground.

That enormous piece of junk 929 that has taken up the entire factory area.

The figure of the woman in white reappeared.

She stared at the enormous mass of protein in front of her, its aroma wafting with enticing allure, her eyes gleaming with undisguised greed.

Her tongue slowly extended, leaving a sticky trail on her lips.

With a cold laugh, her body began to twist and swell violently in the red light!

The high-dimensional predator, Bogaru, is preparing to devour this sumptuous feast in one gulp!
