Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

"Human development has indeed destroyed the environment on which many species depend for survival."

After hearing Shen Yun's explanation, Ze Jing felt a little emotional.

"This is inevitable. Humans can only protect the environment as much as possible while developing themselves, and protect the animals whose habitats are being destroyed. Perhaps one day in the future, the monsters on Earth will also be kept in cages by humans for protection and observation, just like the animals in cages," Shen Yun said with a smile.

"Perhaps."

……

The plane was fast, and it didn't take long to get from the Boso Peninsula to Kurara Island.

Zejing and Shen Yun got off the plane together and walked quickly toward the mobile base built by TPC.

"Thank you for your hard work." The TPC investigation team leader stepped forward quickly, took off his hat, and bowed slightly.

"How's the situation?" Sawai asked with concern as she walked toward the camp.

"Three miners and three investigators were killed."

"I see. We need to make sure the families of the victims are settled, and the compensation should be distributed as soon as possible," Sawai said with a sigh.

"yes!"

The group arrived at the quarry's mobile base.

Sawai looked at the TPC investigation team leader beside him and asked:

"Did you see what the monster looked like?"

"No, the only surviving investigator only saw the monster's claws and images of people being turned to stone," he replied, shaking his head.

"Didn't you see it?" Sawai frowned slightly.

He looked at the workers gathered in front of the TPC mobile base and asked:

"Have any of the workers here seen Gakuma before?"

"Yes!" A middle-aged miner with a round face nodded and answered:

"That monster looked like a rock, and it even had a horn on its head!"

"Hey, old man, are you seeing things? Gakuma has two horns on his head," a miner next to the middle-aged miner immediately corrected him.

"Yes, there are two!"

"No, it's just one!"

"one!"

"two!"

"It's one!"

"I've seen it before, it definitely has two horns!"

……

Looking at the arguing workers, Sawai was somewhat disappointed: "So, no one has actually seen Gakuma."

"Perhaps the Gakuma that these miners saw is not the same one," Shen Yun said.

"Not the same one? You mean there are two Gakuma?" Sawai turned to look at Shen Yun, his expression turning serious.

This is definitely not good news.

"Hmm." Shen Yun nodded and said, "One person might be wrong, but it's impossible for so many people to all be wrong."

"It is highly likely that these workers did not see the same Gakuma."

As he spoke, Shen Yun stepped forward and asked:

"Fellow workers, could you describe the location of the upper corner of Gakuma's head?"

"Jakuma's horn grows in the middle."

"No, Gakuma's horns grow on both sides."

Shen Yun returned to Ze Jing's side, and seeing the miners arguing again, said:

"There's no mistake, there are two Gakuma on Kurara Island."

"Two monsters...this is troublesome." Sawai frowned, pondered for a moment, and then asked:

"Is there any way to locate these two monsters?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yun took out a white robot with four legs and a round camera on its head, and said:

"This is a probe robot I recently developed. It is capable of entering many harsh environments for exploration."

As Shen Yun spoke, he activated the detection robot.

As soon as the probe robot landed, the head of the high-definition camera immediately began to rotate around.

Shen Yun connected the detection robot's camera to the computer inside the mobile base.

The images captured by the probe robot immediately appeared on the computer screen.

"This robot seems to have a high level of intelligence," Sawai remarked, watching the detection robot whose camera followed his gaze.

"Yes, this probe robot is considered an intelligent robot. As a robot that can be mass-produced, its intelligence is not very high, and it still needs to be manually controlled." Shen Yun responded, took out a remote control that looked like a game controller, and started controlling the spider-like probe robot.

The probe robot crawls on four legs alternately at an extremely fast speed.

"With this, our investigators won't be injured or killed when we encounter monsters again," Sawai said happily.

"This exploration robot is a prototype. If it can complete the mission perfectly, it can replace the investigators to explore dangerous places." Shen Yun nodded and controlled the exploration robot to crawl into the mine ahead.

As the exploration robot entered the mine, Shen Yun and Ze Jing entered the mobile base. Watching the high-definition images displayed on the computer, they controlled the exploration robot to continue deeper into the mine.

As Shen Yun maneuvered the probe robot forward, he looked at the TPC squad leader beside him and asked:

"Is there a record of the investigators' movements before the murder?"

"Yes, yes." The TPC team leader quickly pulled up the previous travel route of the TPC investigators.

He pointed to the end of the route and said, "It was here that the three investigators lost contact. The only surviving investigator witnessed the monster abduct one investigator and turn the other two into stone."

"I understand." Shen Yun controlled the probe robot, following the route taken by the TPC investigators.

Before long, the detection robot arrived at the location where the three investigators had been murdered.

Inside the mine tunnel, a small exploration robot suddenly stopped.

The camera on its head rotated and captured a humanoid rock formation standing in the tunnel.

"This is..." Sawai leaned closer to the computer screen, looking at the strangely shaped humanoid rock, and couldn't help but exclaim:

"Could this be the investigator who was turned to stone by Gakuma?"

"It should be." Shen Yun controlled the probe robot, bypassing the humanoid rock, and continued to delve deeper inside.

Soon, the images from deep within the cave were transmitted in real time from the detection robot's camera to the computer at the mobile base.

A gigantic, ferocious-looking monster with a single horn on its head was resting with its eyes closed deep inside the mine.

"This is Gakuma?" Sawai exclaimed, looking at the screen on the computer.

"Start collecting data." Shen Yun carefully maneuvered the probe robot toward Gakuma α.

The probe robot's camera emitted an infrared beam, scanning around Gakuma α's massive body.

Gakuma α's physical data then appeared on the computer screen.

However, before much data on Gakuma α could be collected, the probe's view suddenly went dark, and then it lost signal.

Deep within the mine, Gakuma α shifted its body in its sleep, revealing the completely crushed exploration robot.

Sparks still flickered on the pile of wreckage.

Inside the mobile base.

The computer, which lost its signal connection to the detection robot, also went black at the same time.

"Is there no signal?" Sawai asked, looking at the computer screen that had suddenly gone black.

Shen Yun put down the controller in his hand and explained, "No, it should be that we were too close and got caught in the crossfire from Gakuma's movements."
