Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

Author Fang Kai Na Zhi Gaiduo presents "Tokusatsu: Starting with Ultraman Tiga" on Cola Novels.

Having lost one of its wings, Zoga fell from the sky with a mournful cry.

"Boom!"

Zoga fell headfirst onto the Mongolian plain.

The massive impact caused strong ground tremors.

Then, Tiga landed here carrying the Snow White and gently placed it on the ground.

Zoga hissed as he rose from the ground and spat out beams of light at Tiga.

Seeing this, Tiga quickly turned around and used his back to block the light bullets that Zoga spat out, protecting the Snow White beneath him.

"Bang bang bang!"

The light bullets landed one after another on Tiga's back, exploding into clusters of brilliant sparks.

Tiga endured the pain and withstood the light bullets that Zoga kept spewing out.

Some of the missing light projectiles hit the ground, raising a thick cloud of dust.

The dust that rose up blocked Zoga's vision, causing its attack to pause.

When Zoga's attack temporarily stopped, Tiga slowly turned his head to look at Zoga.

Zoga grabbed his last remaining wing and tore it apart with all his might, green blood flowing from the wound at the base of the wing.

Amidst its cries, Zoga actually tore off its own wings.

Zoga's cruel act greatly surprised Ultraman Tiga.

Zoga tore off the wings that were affecting his balance, his blood-red eyes filled with hatred for Tiga.

"Screech—" Zoga howled as he charged toward Ultraman Tiga.

Tiga stood up and rushed towards Zoga as well.

Just as the two behemoths were about to collide, Zoga suddenly leaped up behind Tiga and unleashed a lightning-fast back whip kick.

Tiga had barely turned around when Zoga's whip kick landed squarely on his chest, before he could even react.

Ultraman Tiga was kicked and spun around in place.

Zoga pressed his advantage, striking Tiga's neck repeatedly with his claws.

Tiga was forced to retreat under Zoga's attacks.

Zoga raised his leg and delivered a side kick, which struck Tiga in the waist.

Tiga let out a painful groan, his body involuntarily curling up.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zoga raised his hand and struck Tiga in the face with a claw, causing Tiga to stagger and spin around in place.

Then, Zoga jumped up again, did a somersault in the air, and lashed out with his tail like a whip, hitting Tiga's chest armor.

"Bang!"

A burst of brilliant sparks erupted from Tiga's chest as he was sent flying, his massive body crashing heavily to the ground.

Tiga collapsed to the ground in agony, curled up, the constant pain making it difficult for him to get up.

Because the aerial type has enhanced all of Tiga's senses several times over, the pain he feels when attacked is also several times that of the composite type.

"Screech!" Zoga screeched triumphantly as it approached Tiga, grabbing him by the neck with both hands and lifting him up.

Zoga gripped Tiga's hands and slowly tightened his grip.

Tiga grabbed Zoga's arm, trying to pry Zoga's arm off his neck.

"Ding-dong ding-dong".

The color timer on Tiga's chest also began to flash.

Inside the cockpit of the Snow White, Lina looked at Tiga, who was at a disadvantage, and couldn't help but shout:

"Dagu!"

Tiga seemed to hear Rena's voice. He raised his arms, crossed them in front of his forehead, and then quickly pulled them down.

A red light flashed across the Tiga Crystal, and Tiga transformed into his Power Type.

"Cha!" Tiga reached out and grabbed Zoga's waist, then slammed him into the air.

"Screech!" Zoga crashed heavily to the ground, causing a tremor.

Zoga quickly rolled over and stood up, while Tiga had already leaped up, rolled over in mid-air with his knees drawn up, and delivered a back kick to Zoga's forehead.

This powerful back kick, delivered from above, sent Zoga crashing to his knees.

Zoga stood up dazedly, and Tiga's attack followed immediately.

Tiga raised his leg and delivered a powerful front kick to Zoga's chest, the force of which sent Zoga staggering back several steps.

Then, Tiga quickly stepped forward and delivered a spinning side punch to Zoga's neck.

"Screech!" Zoga cried out in pain, forced to retreat repeatedly by Tiga's attacks.

Tiga unleashed two powerful punches from both hands, slamming them into Zoga's face, before finishing with a spinning kick.

This series of movements was so fluid and seamless that Zoga was completely powerless to defend himself.

Zoga, still feeling a bit dizzy, slowly got up from the ground. It looked at Tiga and opened its mouth to spit out two light bullets at him.

Tiga swiftly caught the light bullet that Zoga spat out and returned it to him.

The two light-emitting bullets returned at an even faster speed, striking Zoga in the throat, causing intense sparks to erupt from the cement-gray perforated armor.

"Screech!" Zoga let out a painful scream.

Tiga spread his arms, and scorching light energy gathered, compressed into a fireball, and was launched by Tiga.

The crimson Delasium beam struck Zoga squarely in the chest, and amidst flashes of crimson-gold electricity, Zoga exploded into countless fragments.

Zorga was finally defeated.

This time, after defeating the enemy, Tiga did not fly into the sky as usual, but gradually faded away and disappeared in a dazzling light.

On the Mongolian grasslands, Lina searched for Daigo's figure.

Not far away, Daigo stood with his back to Rena's direction.

"Daigo..." Rena looked at Daigo's back with joy, tears glistening in her eyes.

Then, Daigo slowly turned around, and a smile appeared on his face when he saw Rena.

He slowly approached where Lina was. Lina stood still, gazing tenderly at Daigo.

"Welcome back..."

"I'm back."

Upon hearing this, Lina could no longer hold back and immediately stepped forward to shorten the distance between them.

The two threw their helmets on the ground and embraced tightly.

At that moment, Daigo's PDI suddenly went off.

Daigo quickly released Rena and took the PDI from his waist to connect it.

Megumi's voice came through PDI.

"Back to base immediately! Zoga is invading the entire world!"

Lina looked at this with disbelief and said, "How is this possible? Didn't it just die?"

Just then, Zoga's hiss came from above their heads.

The two looked up and saw two Zoga flying overhead, carrying two condensed clouds, heading east.

Communication messages kept coming in through the PDI.

"The Dolphin is not responding!"

"Now, the whole world is suffering from Zoga's attacks."

For Daigo and Rena, who had just survived a fierce battle and finally returned to the ground, this situation was simply unacceptable.

Considering that such a desperate battle is required to defeat just one Zoga, the situation the world will face in the future is self-evident.

The two stood there stunned on the Mongolian grassland, motionless for a long time.

……

South Pacific.

A black, viscous liquid, resembling ink, continuously seeped from the ancient ruins.

The black liquid that rose to the surface vaporized and turned into a pitch-black fog, which spread from the Pacific Ocean toward the continent.

Due to its high density, the black fog did not rise upwards, but instead spread horizontally along the ocean surface at an unusual speed.

Lina and Daigo piloted the Snow White back to base at maximum speed, within the limits of fuel availability.

At the control panel, Lina asked Daigo, who was in the back, "Do you think we can win? If we are ultimately destined to perish..."

Daigo watched Rena's retreating figure and replied firmly, "What kind of fate is this? We must change it!"

That was the true thought that had always existed in Daigo's heart since he became Ultraman Tiga.

However, given the current circumstances, how likely is it that such expectations can be sustained?

The black fog spreading across the Pacific Ocean did not spread outwards at a uniform rate.

Its fastest spread direction is towards Japan, and it advances in a cone shape.

Moreover, the very tip of the black fog was already approaching the base.

South Pacific waters.

On a continent that sank into the South Pacific Ocean in ancient times, there exists a ruined city that transcends human capabilities.

Now, this ruined city is slowly emerging from the water amidst tremors.

Although the exact nature of the tectonic shifts is unknown, the area where the urban cluster is located is gradually rising with the sea level.

However, Dolphin 202 was constantly tossed about by the countless undercurrents generated during the ascent of the ruins city.

"What on earth is happening?" Shin-chan gripped the control stick tightly, trying to stabilize the boat in the turbulent waters.

"What is that big black shadow?!" Horii stared in astonishment at the screen and quickly called headquarters:

"Headquarters, headquarters!"

Command Room.

Munakata, who had just returned from completing his mission, was calling for Dolphin 202.

"Dolphin 202! Answer now! Horii! Shinjo!"

However, only a low, muffled noise came from the speaker.

"There's something unusual happening in the South Pacific." Shen Yun pulled up satellite images of the South Pacific.

Since Zoga appeared, he has instructed Karen to use monitoring satellites to surveillance the South Pacific.

As Shen Yun operated the controls, the situation in the South Pacific Ocean also appeared on the main screen in the command room.

The pitch-black fog is spreading at an extremely rapid pace, and a portion of the South Pacific Ocean has already been completely covered by it.

From time to time, one or two Zoga would burst out from the fog and fly off to various countries around the world to carry out destructive acts.

"Darkness..." The moment I saw the black mist, I felt a chill run down my spine.

It's like a fear etched into our genes.

"What is this?" Yoshioka asked.

"I don't know. However, given the speed at which this black fog is advancing, it won't be long before it engulfs the base. My suggestion is to abandon the base immediately and seek refuge elsewhere," Shen Yun proposed.

"No! Absolutely not! I've poured so much effort into this base, I will never give it up so easily," Yoshioka said angrily.

"Director Yoshioka, a base can be rebuilt, but a person's life is only once!" Shen Yun said earnestly.

These black mists are extremely deadly to humans.

If an organism inhales this gas, it may suffer paralysis or even death.

"The doctor is right, human life comes first. Have all staff take refuge on the Atlas. Be quick!" Sawai ordered.

"Yes!" Ye Rui nodded and immediately relayed the message.

"Doctor, how are things in other countries?" Megumi asked with a worried expression.

Shen Yun then accessed the information on other TPC branches around the world.

The Great Wall area, Moscow, London, Paris, New York, Rio de Janeiro...

These once bustling cities and ancient capitals saw vast swathes of buildings collapse, turning into ruins.

The raging flames turned the city into scorched earth.

This is clearly an apocalyptic scene.

"What happened... the destruction came so suddenly." Sawai looked at the apocalyptic scene on the screen, and a deep sense of powerlessness welled up in her heart.

Although some cities have been reduced to ashes, the TPCs in various countries have not given up the fight.

Shen Yun pulled up the live feed from the scene.

Los Angeles.

TPC North America has reactivated its F-22 Raptor fighter jets, which had been retired for many years, and formed a fighter squadron equipped with the latest missiles to intercept Zoga.

However, the F-22 Raptor fighter jet was too slow to even keep up with the Zorgami.

Moreover, due to the Zoga's high speed, the air-to-air missiles carried by the F-22 Raptor were unable to lock onto it.

Instead, Zoga easily wiped out an entire fighter squadron, and the pilots on board were killed on the spot.

In addition, the Victory Blue Hurricane and Patriot heavy artillery mechs developed by the TPC US branch also departed from the air force base to intercept Zoga's advance.

With the assistance of the Victory Blue Hurricane, the Patriot mech developed by the US branch successfully shot down a Zoga.

However, there is more than one Zoga.

Faced with multiple Zoga, the Patriot, lacking flight components, was completely dismembered by Zoga like an insect being pecked at by birds, even with the assistance of the Victory Blue Hurricane.

After losing its main firepower, the Victory Blue Hurricane was also shot down one by one by Zoga.

Unfortunately, the fighter pilots didn't even have time to eject before being shot down by Zoga.

East European Plain.

The TPC Europe division's Victory Red Dragon and Lake Knight mechs intercepted Zoga on the East European Plain.

The combination of a greatsword and a great shield was indeed more durable than the Patriot, which was armed to the core.

After slaying two Zoga with his greatsword, the Lake Knight mech was also destroyed under Zoga's siege.

The remaining Victory Team's Red Dragon was also completely wiped out.

Meanwhile, war broke out in various parts of China, which is separated from Japan by the sea.

Mass-produced mechs "Great Wall No. 1" and "Victory Black Bird" clashed across the vast land.

As a mass-produced mech, "Great Wall No. 1" has been deployed in most major military regions, aiming to arrive at the scene as quickly as possible to eliminate the monsters.

"TPC US Branch Blue Hurricane Team wiped out..."

"TPC Europe Branch Red Dragon Squad wiped out..."

"TPC China Branch's Black Bird Squad is still engaged in battle with Zoga..."

Battle reports kept coming in, and everyone's mood was heavy.

The only good news right now is that the citizens who went to the underground shelters in advance did not suffer many casualties.

Just then, the main computer in the command center suddenly started beeping.

"Oh my God!" Nori exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Zongfang asked as he walked towards Ye Rui.

Ye Rui's lips trembled as he said, "This... is impossible..."

"What happened?" Megumi asked hurriedly.

"Something has infiltrated our base," Ye Rui said.

"It's the black fog from the South Pacific! This thing has already spread over here." Shen Yun typed a few times on the keyboard, and the image of the lower level of the base immediately appeared on the main screen.

Through the monitors, everyone could confirm that mist was constantly rising from the lower levels.

The black fog flowing into the lower levels shrouded all departments of TPC in darkness.

The TPC base, resembling a pyramid, features a conical atrium inside, through which one can see the conditions of the lower levels.

"Ye Rui, ask if there's anyone left in the lower levels of the base. If no one is, immediately shut down all the NBC defense walls in the lower levels to slow the spread of the black mist," Shen Yun urged.

"Yes!" Ye Rui nodded and quickly got to work.

The black mist has already reached the bottom layer of the base and is eroding inwards along the pillars.

The Snow White, returning to base, is surveying the situation at the base.

"Daigo! Look at the base!" Lina exclaimed.

A black fog, surging in from the sea, is engulfing the entire base.

"dark……"

The illusion that Daigo had seen earlier was that darkness.

However, in reality, darkness also descended, and a chill ran down my spine.

The Snow White slowly descended to the takeoff level.

Command Room.

"Doctor, all the staff at the base's lower levels have been evacuated," Ye Rui reported.

"Disable the defensive wall of the lower NBC layer of the base."

"Understood!" Ye Rui typed on the keyboard, shutting down all the NBC defense walls at the bottom of the base.

The thick defensive wall began to slowly descend, keeping the black mist behind it.

The thick defensive wall began to slowly descend, keeping the black mist behind it.

However, before Ye Rui could even breathe a sigh of relief, the black mist broke through the defensive wall and seeped into the other side of the wall.

However, the rate of spread has slowed down considerably.

"How is this possible!" Ye Rui's eyes widened in shock when he saw this scene on the main screen.

This NBC defense wall is made of a material that can block even radiation, biological contamination, and chemical contamination.

"It seems that there is no way to stop it with physical force..." Zongfang said.

At that moment, Daigo and Rena rushed into the command room.

"The base has been sealed off by the black mist!" Daigo hurriedly reported to his superior.

"What did you say?" Sawai's expression changed.

As soon as Sawai finished speaking, the main lighting system in the command room was temporarily turned off.

"What happened?" Yoshioka asked.

"Ye Rui, switch to the auxiliary system," Shen Yun said.

"Yes!" Ye Rui nodded and immediately got up to operate the panel behind him.

With the auxiliary lighting system turned on, most of the functions in the command room were restored.

However, a voice in Megumi's mind seemed to be urging her to "hurry up."

"All base personnel have boarded the Atlas for refuge. Now, immediately hoist the Atlas onto the flight path!" Dr. Yamata rushed into the command room and said.

"Understood! Transfer the control system from the F4 hangar over here." Lina quickly sat down in Ye Rui's seat and instructed Shen Yun.

"No problem." Shen Yun nodded and immediately transferred the operating system of the F4 hangar over.

"Move Atlas to orbit number 2."

The Atlas, engulfed in the black fog, began to rise as the elevator ascended.

Meanwhile, in the South Pacific.

R'lyeh, probably the temple located on its hills, gradually emerged from the sea.

Even larger amounts of black mist were continuously released.

The viscous, pitch-black liquid, shrouding everything in darkness, flowed from the "Old Ones" enshrined in the temple, slumbering eternally.
