Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 636 Masaki Keigo: This guy isn't Daigo

Kumamoto City.

The amusement park is illuminated with dreamlike lights at night, and the carousel moves slowly to soft music.

Because of the monster's appearance during the day, there were almost no tourists in the park. Only Masaki Keigo, wearing a long-sleeved shirt, sat in the fruit magic cart, idly fiddling with his cuffs, until Daigo, who had finished the battle, reappeared in the amusement park, and then he slowly got up.

"Thank you for your hard work, Daigo."

Seeing Daigo staggering, Masaki Keigo forced a smile.

"Even if you become Ultraman, it's still your own stamina that's being used up. This job is so exhausting, why are you putting in so much effort? Even if you die here, how many people will mourn for you?"

"Who are you……"

Daigo retreated defensively, but was still sent flying by Masaki Keigo's backhand.

"Bang!"

"You're just indulging in the vanity of saving humanity. Can someone as incompetent as you really save the planet?"

Masaki Keigo walked up to Daigo with his hands in his pockets, stepped on Daigo's back, and with a sudden burst of strength, kicked Daigo hard, sending him sliding and crashing into the railing.

"Do you know why you're so much weaker than the other Ultraman? It's not Tiga's problem, it's that you're too weak!"

"Well!"

Daigo struggled to his feet, leaning on the railing. Facing Masaki Keigo's continued approach, he quickly turned to counterattack, but couldn't touch him at all. All his movements were easily dodged, and he almost got kicked away again.

"See that?" Masaki Keigo sneered, tearing open his shirt to reveal his well-defined, dark muscles. "I'm different from you. Not only am I born with intelligence far exceeding that of ordinary people, but my body has also undergone relentless training to become a superman!"

"Bang!"

Daigo couldn't dodge in time, and was slammed into the rain by Masaki Keigo's swift spinning kick.

"And you didn't put in any effort whatsoever; you just stumbled upon the Ultraman Tiga statue by luck!" Masaki Keigo's face hardened. "You have absolutely no right to be Ultraman!"

"The way to revive the giants is to turn Daigo into light... At that moment, I heard a voice, and it was I who turned into light."

Daigo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and got up again under Masaki Keigo's surprised gaze.

It's more resilient than I expected.

Masaki Keigo raised an eyebrow.

He didn't hold back at all; most people would have a hard time withstanding a few rounds of attacks.

"You've got some skill. Did becoming a giant strengthen your body? But..."

"Bang!"

Masaki Keigo relentlessly pursued, delivering several heavy punches to Daigo's chest and abdomen, while his leather shoes kicked out, splashing water everywhere, and struck Daigo's neck hard.

"Die... huh?"

The fatal blow had no effect; Daigo simply took it with his neck, only slightly bending over from the pressure.

"I really underestimated you!"

Masaki Keigo's face was grim. He continued to exert force with his legs, but failed to suppress Daigo any further. Instead, he found himself wide open.

"How is that possible..."

"This level of strength is far inferior to Shinjo's," Daigo said with a smile despite the excruciating pain. "There's one thing you might be mistaken about: the Titans didn't enhance my body. Without the Spark Lens, I'm just an ordinary person."

"Ordinary people?"

Masaki Keigo felt insulted.

"How could you know how much hardship I've endured to get to where I am today? Are you suggesting that you can surpass me in less than a year of training?"

"Whoosh!"

Masaki Keigo continued his offensive relentlessly, but this time the situation changed. The one he couldn't hit was Daigo, and he, having exhausted himself, was hit hard several times.

Daigo could withstand the blows, but he couldn't.

If Daigo hadn't been reluctant to kill, the situation would likely have been completely reversed.

Forget about stealing Daigo's Spark Lens; he himself would be arrested by the GUTS team, and all his plans would come to naught.

Why is this happening?

What went wrong?

He had already collected information, but now Daigo seemed like a completely different person.

This guy is definitely not Daigo!

"Whoosh!"

Masaki Keigo, panting, distanced himself and reluctantly called out to the other side of the carousel, "I agree to cooperate with you, but you have to grab the Sparkle from me first."

"Why didn't you do this sooner?"

The young man from the alliance team, who was squinting, led the team out, and was equally surprised by Daigo's endurance.

Masaki Keigo was actually no match for Daigo, who had just transformed and fought.

He had witnessed firsthand how much physical exertion he had previously expended.

"As expected, it's you guys again."

Fujiwara, in his second queen bee form, leaped off the roof and landed right between Daigo and the rest of the alliance team, his teleportation card ready to go.

"The captain guessed right, you want to take action against Daigo while Mr. Shinjo is away. I really don't understand, what's the point of doing this?"

"You're the one who doesn't understand."

The squinting young man frowned secretly. Seeing the royal bee reminded him of the unicorn who had been completely eliminated, and he felt a little angry.

"This dungeon is far more complex than you realize. Compared to unraveling the mysteries of the ancient times, what are Tiga and these monsters compared to that?"

"Ancient times?"

Fujiwara Saiji glanced at Masaki Keigo, who had regained his composure, and was about to activate the teleportation card when a burst of light suddenly shot out from his arm. The card system solidified on its own, and a set of card images flew around a ball of light and merged into the Royal Bee Insect Instrument.

Not only the members of the alliance team, but Fujiwara Saiji himself was also almost startled, thinking that he had been attacked. Only after regaining his senses did he realize that it was a system upgrade.

"This is……"

A series of messages flooded into Fujiwara Saiji's mind.

He wasn't sure which upgrades were specific, but what concerned him most was the armor upgrade.

Regardless of the specific knight system, all of them have added extended functions while retaining the original attributes, eliminating the need to use additional knight systems to cheat, and directly maxing out the level cap.

In addition to exchanging monsters in the shop, the expanded options also allow you to capture monster data yourself to strengthen them, which significantly reduces the point requirements compared to directly exchanging for monster cards.

Also, it seems there's no longer a one-time option?

The Imperial Knight Card has returned to its original price.

"Celebrate!" Dan Kuroto's smug laughter rang in Fujiwara Saiji's ears. "Thanks to my genius research, the system can infinitely enhance your Knight System through card making, and it's no longer a one-time exchange!"

"All cards are copyable, so as long as you can hold out, you can use them without limit! Haha, I'm practically a god! So what if it's not the world of knights? A god is still a god, and I will never admit defeat!"

"Why is it this guy?"

Fujiwara Saiji was stunned.

In short, the system has gone from internal testing to public testing, and most restrictions have been removed.

But is the cancellation of the one-time redemption qualification, which was originally a benefit for new users, a good thing or a bad thing?

"Whoosh!"

Ignoring Dan Kuroto's arrogant laughter, Fujiwara Saiji couldn't help but exchange for a Golza card. As the mirror card disappeared, his right arm suddenly felt heavy.

A mechanical arm materialized out of thin air, its sharp claws slicing through the air as if capable of tearing everything apart.

Strength and defense have been improved in all aspects, but as Dan Kuroto said, his stamina consumption has also increased significantly.

Although the newbie protection period is over, the future holds endless possibilities.

This upgrade seems somewhat familiar...

"You have the Unicorn Armor?! Shameless!" The squinting youth suddenly realized, his gaze dark as he stared at the monster armor on Fujiwara Saiji's arm, but in the end, he still did not choose to make a move.

Fujiwara Saiji is nothing to fear, but they are not yet ready to face the Ultraman behind them.

"Walk!"

Suppressing their anger, the alliance team quickly dodged and teleported away with Masaki Keigo, who was still unaware of the situation.
