Ultraman: Feed my daddy

"Doctor, do you have any solutions to this?"

After Dr. Mizuno finished speaking, the entire command room fell silent as everyone pondered how to overcome this challenge.

Finally, it was Director Sawai who broke the silence.

"Based on our in-depth research on the Lightning Man, if it's just one or two Gazotes, we might be able to use a special electromagnetic wave to interfere with them, causing the Lightning Man inside them to go berserk, thus replicating the success of Tiga and the others, and causing the Gazotes to disintegrate on their own."

But with so many Gazorts, we might only have one chance to use it before the launcher is destroyed.

Dr. Mizuno said helplessly.

This special device has a very high power requirement, and unless it is placed in a location specifically designed for it, it can only interfere with one Gazoat at a time.

But how could they possibly get Gazort to appear at their specially prepared battleground?

"So, the key to limiting this kind of special equipment lies in sufficient energy output, right?"

Dr. Yao, who was sitting behind Director Sawai, stood up.

He frowned, clearly unwilling to make the suggestion, but looking around at everyone present, no one could offer a solution, so he had no choice but to step forward.

He is a member of the TPC Scientific Research Bureau and the developer of the Magus Power System.

The propulsion system used in the heavy warship Atedis, which TPC is currently assembling, was designed by him.

"If the Magus power system is as powerful as you say, then it can interfere with five or six Gazorts at once, provided that these Gazorts are all gathered together."

After listening to Dr. Yao's explanation, Dr. Mizuno affirmed.

Since there's no way to lure the enemy to our home turf, let's just fly our spaceship, loaded with weapons, and smash it right into their face.

Just as the two were celebrating finding a way to deal with Gazort.

However, everyone else in the command room still looked worried and distressed.

"What's wrong with you guys? Haven't we already found a way to defeat the enemy? Why are you still so upset?"

Dr. Yao asked, puzzled.

"PhD……"

Staff Officer Nan Yuan opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything, and just turned his head to the side.

"What's with the 'Doctor' thing? What difficulties are you facing? Just tell me!"

Ya-o Mei-ban scanned the crowd and found that they were all avoiding his gaze.

It seems this is a secret known to everyone, but unknown to me alone.

He looked at the crowd, trying to put pressure on them with his gaze, but no one reacted. After looking around, he finally set his sights on Horii.

"Mr. Horii, could you please tell me what happened? What's causing you this trouble?"

As soon as Dr. Yao spoke, Dr. Mizuno on the other side of the screen also turned his attention to Horii.

Bearing pressure from two people at the same time, one of whom was his mentor, Horii finally couldn't keep quiet anymore.

"Um... you know... Dr. Yatae, I wonder if you went to the F4 hangar after the chaos ended? Something might have happened there..."

After saying this, Horii lowered his head and looked intently at the table in front of him, as if there were some unparalleled scientific research project materials there.

"What!? Could it be that they...?"

Upon hearing Horii's words, Dr. Yaoya instantly realized something, his face turned deathly pale, and he stood frozen in place, motionless.

Of everyone present, only Dr. Mizuno remained completely unaware, looking at them with utter confusion.

Fortunately, one of his students had been browsing the news during this time and, based on what he was seeing, guessed some of the facts.

So she pulled him aside and whispered about what had happened at the TPC base the day before, which made him understand the strange silence around them.

"Oh dear, it's like when it rains, it pours. Why does everything have to happen at once?"

With a sigh, Dr. Mizuno returned to the screen, looking at the silent crowd, unsure of what to say.

"Actually... the number of people who were injured and died was limited. After all, it was 133 floors underground. The red gas only grazed the edge, and the reagent developed by Horii covered it up."

However, this chaos has significantly impacted the construction of the Atlas, and its completion may be delayed considerably.

Looking left and right, Ye Rui, unable to bear the atmosphere in the command room any longer, gritted his teeth and said something.

As you can see, after he said that, Dr. Yao's expression improved slightly, but only a little.

The construction of the Atdis will take time, but the threat from Gazort is imminent and cannot be delayed for even a moment.

A dozen or so Gazorts, each emanating energy enough to easily raze a large city.

If we let them run rampant and cause destruction, no one can afford the consequences.

"If we spare no expense and go all out to manufacture this special equipment, how many days can we produce one unit?"

Police Chief Tetsuji Yoshioka, who had remained silent since the meeting began, spoke up.

"What do you need so many for? Without special modifications, the entire power of an ordinary city's industrial zone can only support one Gazort. If we could defeat Gazort simply by sheer numbers, we wouldn't need to go through all this trouble."

Although Dr. Mizuno said that, he still pulled up the data and did a rough calculation.

"If we spare no expense, we might be able to produce one special device every three days. The main problem is that many of the materials used in it are laboratory-made, so large-scale mass production is impossible. We have to rub them little by little by hand."

"One every three days? Based on your observations, Doctor, how long will it take before these Gazorts launch an attack on us?"

Upon hearing this number, Yoshioka seemed to be calculating something in his mind, and then moved on to the next question.

"This... is hard to say, because based on our communication with the Lightning Man we are cooperating with, we are certain that a normally born Gazort would not have this level of strength."

Gazorts that can reach this level must be specially bred. Whether we stop feeding them or give them a command by offering them food, these Gazorts will attack us.

However, since the enemy hasn't launched an attack for so long, they probably want to wait until these Gazorts reach their maximum potential, that is, the level of the previous Gazort. If that's the case, we still have 10 days to prepare.

"Ten days, which means that including this one, there can be a maximum of four special equipment units?"

Yoshioka frowned upon hearing the tight number.

"No, teacher, if the enemy is waiting for Gazort to reach its limit before launching an attack, we should have more time, because the last Gazort didn't reach the limit of this mode."

Horii suddenly raised his head and said.

He made a series of operations on the communicator, and a model of Gazort appeared in the corner of the big screen.

"Look here, this is Lightning Man himself, this is Sphia, this is Ebron cells, and this is some kind of unknown monster cell that can generate electricity. If we want to push its power to its limit..."

After a series of dazzling changes, a completely new number finally appeared on the screen.

"Eighteen days. We have eighteen days to prepare. We can produce a total of seven special equipment units. The price is that we will face more than a dozen Gazorts that are enhanced to the limit, which are even stronger than the previous ones."

As he spoke, Horii turned his gaze to Tetsuji Yoshioka, wondering what good ideas he had to deal with Gazort's threat.
