Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 167 Alien Alliance

"Whoosh—!"

A crimson shockwave radiated in a storm-like ring, instantly turning city buildings into dust and causing them to crumble and collapse, sending up dust waves tens of meters high.

The Leo cavalry, who were at the forefront of the attack, crumbled like sand dunes at the slightest touch, leaving not even a trace. Kageyama Saeko vanished into thin air while still in her speaking posture, and only the King of Orphnoch held on for a little longer.

As a king, the King of Orphnoch naturally has the ability to suppress all Orphnochs, and no matter how strong an Orphnoch is, he can petrify it and turn it into food.

It can give Orphnoch both death and life.

With a little more time, we could completely dominate the entire Earth.

However, at this moment, they are still extremely vulnerable in the face of the Fangblood Demon clan, which reigns supreme among the demons.

"You bastard!"

The King of Orphnoch, writhing in agony as the crimson dark power washed over him, staggered toward the dark Kiva at the eye of the storm.

First, the Earth Emperor's battle armor collapsed, and then his own locust-like body was engulfed in void flames.

After waiting for countless years to be resurrected, his peak and strongest state lasted for less than a day, and he didn't even have a chance to fully unleash his power.

"I won't die! Sooner or later..."

"Bang bang bang!"

The crimson energy erupted completely, and even the last Orphnoch king shattered.

The entire world suddenly seemed to sink, and as the dust settled, a giant bat emblem was clearly visible on the surface of Tokyo, standing out prominently when viewed from above the island nation.

"Ahem!"

On the edge of the city, Kondo Isami scrambled out of the rubble, panting heavily. Once he recovered, he felt a tearing pain, and all his strength vanished instantly.

Even though wearing the belt grants superhuman strength without transforming, one is still ultimately made of flesh and blood, and the ability to crawl out is almost entirely due to sheer willpower.

This time, I won't be able to move a single finger.

"I'm alive……"

Kondo Isami leaned against the ruins with difficulty, trembling as he glanced at the flat ruins of Tokyo. His face still showed the joy of surviving the disaster, but he couldn't help but want to burst into tears.

If he hadn't been lucky enough to react in time and hide in an underground air-raid shelter, he probably would have turned to ashes like those Orphnochs.

If I manage to get back alive this time, I'll just stay at the university and become a tutor.

There's nothing shameful about being alive.

"Whoosh!"

As a faint light descended, Kondo Isami, who was already extremely exhausted, roused himself once again.

"You've cleared the game?"

Kondo Isami was stunned by the sense of detachment brought about by the light. He subconsciously turned his head and looked in confusion at the dark Kiva that was faintly visible in the sandstorm in the distance.

"call!"

The last two figures disappeared, and it was quite a while before the survivors arrived at the scene in Tokyo by car.

A long-haired young man picked up the Faiz belt set that had fallen to the side, looking bewildered at the eager gazes of the three people, including Kiba Yuji.

"What are you doing?"

"We must never forget Mr. Kaminaga, and Takumi Inui!"

"what?"

Human survivor camp.

Takuma, one of the original lucky four-leaf clovers, stopped the waterwheel and silently gazed at the disappearing Tokyo in the distance.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Saeko, please forgive me. This world ultimately belongs to humankind."

……

This world.

Xia Chuan carried the Extreme Fox Driver and was inspected by two Ant Soldiers. Only after confirming that everything was in order was he allowed to pass.

A gaze from an unknown source seemed to linger on him for a moment.

Xia Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained unchanged.

A similar sense of oppression as Zoffy.

Why does such a thing still exist on Earth?

"Kaminaga!"

Hiroko Asami and her partner came to greet them.

"Are you alright? I heard there was a major change in the dungeon."

"It's okay, I just happened to be away from the scene."

Just as Xia Chuan was about to take out the permission card that had turned silver, there was another commotion behind him.

However, Kondo Isami, looking miserable, was carried out. As soon as Konan, who had been waiting for a long time, approached, Kondo Isami struggled and shouted.

"I'm fine, don't come any closer!"

"Ah Yong..."

"ah--!"

"What's wrong with him?" Xia Chuan's eyebrows twitched slightly.

Logically, his attack shouldn't have affected the knights of this world. If they were a little further away, they would have had time to return, so they shouldn't have been injured like this.

If they hadn't been able to return in time, they probably wouldn't have survived.

"Who knows?" Hiroko Asami asked in a strange tone. "I heard they encountered the King of Orphnoch as soon as they arrived."

"..."

……

"Whoosh!"

Deep in a valley, a silver-white spaceship's energy shield slowly rotated, and after receiving a communication signal, it projected several silver-robed figures onto the command center.

"Still haven't found it?"

The silver-robed figures sat around a long, virtualized table, with a holographic image of the dungeon entrance clearly reflected in front of them, featuring a close-up of Xia Chuan's face.

"Dark Kiva's ranking has risen, pushing Kuuga out of the top spot."

"The knights on these lists are indeed suspicious; they may have acquired higher privileges."

"Still unable to break through the Dimensional Mirror?"

"No, the core permissions for the Dimensional Mirror are all in that thing's hands..."

"When will we finally have to wait?"

"Could that thing have already developed self-awareness? Maybe it's already lurking on this Earth..."

"Human surveillance is still unreliable; should we switch to our own communication network?"

"That's something we can consider, as long as we minimize the traces of our manipulation..."

"Quiet!" The silver-robed man at the head of the group tapped the edge of the table. "What we need to discuss today is not that thing, but the recent changes in the dungeon spacetime. As long as the Knight Era fully arrives, that thing will surface sooner or later. All we need to do is speed up this process."

"That's right, doing too much will only alert the enemy."

"Is this human the human form of an Ultraman from the past?" someone suddenly pondered, staring directly at Natsukawa in the holographic projection. "He's still alive? I heard there are Zarab aliens seeking revenge..."

"This person cannot be allowed to get into trouble."

The silver-robed man at the head lowered his voice.

"Our plan must not alert the Star of Light."

"Ignore him. What can a human do even if he becomes a knight?"

A hoarse voice rang out.

"Speaking of which, Kuuga on the current list is nothing more than a flawed experimental subject. So-called knights are just like that, and they're already outdated compared to the biological weapons I've been researching recently..."

"Let's put that aside for now," the silver-robed man at the back said, switching between projected information. "That shady character from the Fujiwara Group has applied to join us. What do you say?"

"It's just a little bug, refuse it," the silver-robed man in front sneered. "It'll be perfect to see the bug's last struggle."

I second that.

Fujiwara Foundation.

The old man with his hair tied up, no longer exuding his former imposing aura, knelt prostrate on the expensive carpet, humbly awaiting a response from above.

Several hours later, the old man with his hair tied up suddenly froze, and after the communication ended, his face turned completely ashen.

"A bunch of bastards, this planet will be ours sooner or later!"

Aliens are also divided into different classes. In recent years, the Fujiwara Foundation has developed rapidly, but in secret, it is only regarded as "insects".

Because, in comparison, they are far inferior in both individual strength and technological level.

However, the situation is about to change.

"Chairman, the First Young Master is looking for you," the young assistant's pager chimed.

The elderly man with his hair tied up stood up, composed himself for a moment, and then returned to his office chair.

"Let him in... By the way, how's the belt?"

"There's a new reaction," the assistant replied. "This time it's from the Kabuto universe."

The old man with his hair tied up suddenly brightened up.

"Our world?"

……

Leo's House (Izakaya)

Xia Chuan ordered a glass of milk and a few side dishes, just like always.

Aside from the points, this dungeon run didn't yield any particularly noteworthy gains. However, it was the first time I'd encountered a level 5 knight in this world, and I also learned about those above level 5.

According to Murakami Kohei, he seems to have become a level 6 knight.

Race: human

Lifespan: 35/1000

Physique: All Rider Transformation lv5

Life level: D (Cosmic being)

Rank: 3 (Super Recovery Power, Super Speed, Ultra Telekinesis)

Materials: Kuuga (100), Dark Kiva (100), Kalis (100), Ryuki (100), Faiz (100)

Items: Knight Gold Card, Silver Card (real-name registration), Kuuga Card, Golem Card, Dark Kiva Card, Kalis Card, Dragon Knight Card, Faiz Card

……

The physical condition remains at level 5.

However, without realizing it, five knight timelines have already passed, and the knight system has been bound to five knights.

It seems I have a special connection with the number 5.

I have a vague feeling that things will change in the next timeline.

Xia Chuan's own experiences flashed through his mind like a movie.

A level 6 knight needs to break through the limits, and a level 6 physique also needs to break through the limits; they should have something in common.

What he needs is probably more battles, more levels to complete, and more knight systems.

"Snapped!"

The chopsticks in Xia Chuan's hand suddenly broke as he was thinking, and before he could think much about it, he was greeted with a concerned look from the boss.

He didn't use much force.

Xia Chuan looked down at the fracture and discovered that the material structure had changed.

The chopsticks had somehow turned into food.

Particle manipulation capabilities.

With a thought, the chopsticks quickly returned to their original shape.

That's right, it's Kuuga's superpower, not very strong, but more free and controllable than Kuuga's.

Ultraman's telekinesis began to evolve at the microscopic level.
