Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

This time, Jun Himeya's transformation quickly came to an end.

Fortunately, the Night Raid team arrived in time to provide support, which allowed Nexus to escape.

After the battle, Jun Himeya was breathing heavily, beads of cold sweat on his forehead, and his body was trembling uncontrollably.

Hallucinations began to invade his consciousness.

"Sera, I can't save anyone..."

Consciousness was completely plunged into darkness.

……

"Mr. Himeya! Mr. Himeya!"

Gu Men rushed forward, carefully helped him up, and patted his cheeks.

Jun Himeya regained some of his senses.

He recognized the person's face. "Gu Men, you've come..."

"Why work so hard!"

Komon's voice trembled with tears, "If this continues, you'll really die!"

"have no idea……"

Jun Himeya replied, panting, "But the light gives me power."

"Therefore... I must... continue fighting..."

The lonely gate said urgently.

"But you'll die if you do that!! We can also..."

"Let him go."

A calm female voice rang out.

Komon and Jun Himeya turned their heads at the same time.

"Let him go."

Vice-Captain Saijo Nagi appeared out of nowhere.

"Vice-captain?"

Komon looked at her in disbelief.

Saijo Nagi didn't look at Komon, but stared at Himeya Jun.

"You'd better hurry, the memory police are coming soon."

This time, Saijo wasn't there to arrest Jun Himeya, but to urge him to leave immediately.

"Phew, sorry."

Himeya Jun gave an apologetic smile, then piloted the Stone Wing away.

He knew that Saijo had deliberately let him go and would inevitably face questioning from his superiors.

And the solitary gate...

This kind-hearted young man is still trying to save someone who has already decided to die.

"Brother Jun's smile...it's made me lose my composure..."

"It was so tough, really so tough. The whole time was either fighting or on the way to fight. I was covered in wounds."

"Vice Captain Saijo has changed too; she's seen what kind of person Jun-san really is."

"But why do I still feel so heartbroken looking at it? It's like looking at an oil lamp that's almost out of oil, yet it's still desperately trying to emit its last bit of light..."

"The light chose him, and it also trapped him..."

Countless viewers watched this scene with mixed feelings.

They witnessed Tiga's glory, Seven's majesty, and Ace's power.

But I have never seen such a self-destructive battle.

"Vice-captain..."

Gu Men hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back.

"Shut up."

Saijo Nagi interrupted him.

"Go do what you're supposed to do."

Meanwhile, at TLT's Far East headquarters.

The situation is becoming increasingly serious.

TLT's technical department finally cracked the encrypted message left by Mizoroki Shinya.

At midnight, the Gate of Darkness will open in Shinjuku Central Park.

Meanwhile, freelance journalist Shinzo Negi was also present.

As one of the few civilians who noticed the existence of the alien beasts and persisted in investigating, Negoro Jinzo has been following this clue for many years.

Using his connections as a journalist and his keen intuition, he gradually pieced together the fragments of the truth.

There are terrifying creatures unknown to humankind on Earth, and TLT is secretly fighting against them and erasing the memories of all witnesses.

"This time we absolutely must get evidence on camera..."

Just then, several thick tentacles shot out from the darkness and instantly wrapped around his limbs.

"Ugh—!"

"Damn it, how could I die like this..."

At the critical moment, Jun Himeya appeared and decisively fired his gun to repel the tentacles.

"Himeya?"

Genlai recognized the person who had come.

Himeya Jun looked warily into the depths of the passage.

"Mr. Genlai, it's very dangerous here. We need to get back to the surface."

"What are you saying? I'm a reporter, after all. How can I just give up like this?"

Genlai picked up the fallen camera and stubbornly retorted, "I will reveal the truth! TLT has no right to cover this up!"

Seeing that Kenjiro refused to give up, Jun Himeya raised his gun and aimed it at him.

"I don't want to see anyone else die."

Seeing the serious expression on Himeya Jun's face, Negi was stunned.

An absurd yet reasonable conjecture came to mind.

"Himeya..."

Genlai's voice turned serious, "What is it that makes you absolutely forced to fight?"

"What exactly are you fighting?"

Jun Himeya's body seemed to stiffen for a moment.

"What I'm fighting... is..."

Himeya Jun was about to answer.

"boom--!!!"

More tentacles emerged.

Without hesitation, Jun Himeya drew the short sword-shaped device.

Evolutionary believers.

"Destiny—!"

He launched his own unique charge against the alien beast.

This time, he no longer tried to hide it.

A crimson light burst forth from the Evolution Trustee, quickly enveloping Jun Himeya's body.

Within the light, Jun Himeya's figure gradually changed.

Under the red light, Jun Himeya transforms into Nexus, which is 4 meters tall, to fight the parasitic beast.

Then they rushed into the place of their end.

A human-sized Ultraman Nexus has appeared in an underground passage!

"This is the truth I've been searching for..."

Genlai murmured.

It turns out that the ones who have been silently protecting humanity and fighting against terrifying monsters are not distant gods or alien visitors, but... humanity itself.

A human being who endures immense pain and loneliness, yet still chooses to fight...

The final resting place.

Nexus and the alien beast Kutura engaged in their final battle.

However, continuous high-intensity combat and severe physical exhaustion have left Jun Himeya with only a fraction of his former strength.

After several rounds, Nexus's movements became noticeably sluggish, his attacks weak and ineffective, and he was even unable to effectively break through Kutura's defenses.

Instead, its limbs and neck were easily entangled by the opponent's tentacles, firmly imprisoning it in mid-air.

Several struggles only resulted in tighter restraints from the tentacles and a rapid depletion of energy.

Goroki Shinya's figure appeared on a high cliff not far away. He watched the battle with a leisurely air, his tone mocking.

"However, tragically... he died without ever understanding the meaning of that light."

"He was just fighting blindly, wasting his life... until he was completely exhausted."

Suddenly, Mizoroki Shinya's voice echoed through the space, carrying a mocking laugh.

"However, he could not understand the meaning of this light."

The energy core in Nexus's chest flickered more and more rapidly, and its light grew dimmer.

The audience's hearts were gripped tightly:

"Night Raid Team! Hurry up!!! If you don't come soon, Brother Zhun really won't be able to hold on!"

"Go! Accelerate! Floor the gas! Big Brother can't hold on any longer!"

"Damn it! Go try somewhere else! Come to the Ultraman Tiga universe and see what happens! Daigo will beat the shit out of you!"

"Is it possible... that Tiga will really come to the rescue? After all, they are both made of light..."

"Pray! Everyone stand up and pass the light to Brother Jun!"

"Can't the Land of Light enforce the law across different realms?! Director Ace! Ancestor Seven! Help!"

However, the reality is cruel.

However, the miraculous rescue they had hoped for did not occur.

Kutula's attacks did not stop.

The continuous lashes of tentacles and energy surges left Nexus utterly helpless.

The timer on his chest flashed faster and faster, and the red light grew dimmer.

Then, something happened that made all the viewers' hearts stop—

The flashing frequency of the timer suddenly slowed down.

"Bang...bang...bang..." The originally urgent alarm sound became low and slow.

It felt like a heartbeat... gradually stopping.

"No...no way..."

"That voice..."

"Is that... a heartbeat?"

The moment this thought surfaced—

On the screen, the V-shaped energy core on Nexus's chest, which had been flashing rapidly, suddenly trembled, and then...

The flickering has completely stopped.

Immediately afterwards—

"Bang!!!"

A heavy, muffled thud.

Nexus's tall body, like a puppet whose strings had been cut, lost all support and tilted straight forward.

Dust rose up.

His milky-white eyes had completely lost all their luster.

Ultraman Nexus was defeated.

The light went out.

at the same time.

The Chester fighter jet broke through the energy barrier of the End Land and sped in.

Time seemed to stand still.

Captain Wakura, Saijo Nagi, Komon Ikki, Ishibori Mitsuhiko, Hiragi Shiori...

The color drained from everyone's faces instantly, replaced by utter shock and disbelief.

"How...how is this possible..."

The once invincible Ultra Warriors have now completely lost their brilliance, like lambs to the slaughter, bound to the rock wall.

Without a sound.

"Impossible!!! This must be a conspiracy by Mizoroki! How could Nexus lose?! How could it?!"

"The light went out, the timer stopped flashing...and my eyes aren't working anymore..."

"Brother Jun... my brother Jun... why are you being so cruel to him..."

"A plot twist! There has to be a plot twist! It's only episode 23! Ace's entire team was wiped out, but Father of Ultra saved them later, didn't he?!"

"Yes! Komon! Komon is still around! He must have a way! Maybe the next suitable candidate will be Komon! The light will be passed down!"

"Guangda! If you dare let Brother Zhun die like this! I, I'll go buy razor blades right now! (Impotent rage)"

Office of the Land of Light.

Yang Qian calmly looked at the comments section.

He picked up the now-cold teacup and gently shook his head.

He understood the audience's expectations.

I'm looking forward to Ultraman's sudden power spike, to other Ultramen coming from across the universe to save the day, and to a miraculous turnaround in dire situations...

However, in this universe belonging to Nexus, there are no expected reinforcements, no destined saviors.

The transmission of light is often accompanied by sacrifice and choices.

We've been fighting continuously for so long...

It's about time...

Let Brother Zhun rest for a bit.

Ten minutes later, episode 24 of "Ultraman Nexus" – "Hero" – was released on time.
