Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 650 I am the last Ultraman

Frozen planet.

The Natsukawa Giant leaned against the iceberg, calmly observing its surroundings.

There was almost no change since he left. Although it was related to the time flow of the instance, the days spent in the instance world were indeed insignificant on a cosmic scale.

"A warrior is lonely... That guy Iida Ryu wasn't wrong."

With a slight movement of the giant's body, Xia Chuan turned his gaze back to the Ultraman Tiga instance.

To fulfill his promise, he left early and, with the help of some copy permissions, gave Tōmo a new life.

By now, Mayumi should have met her boyfriend, right?

"elder brother!"

Shinjo's vision was blurry, and he hadn't fully recovered from the faint sadness when he turned around and was tightly hugged by Mayumi, who was both crying and laughing.

"He's back! Takuma's really back! Thank you, brother!"

"Phew, that's good."

Xincheng smiled and nodded gently as he looked up at the sky.

He will no longer be Ultraman, but perhaps due to the fusion, his body still feels much stronger than before.

Most importantly, my sister is safe and sound.

"Libia, I hope you can achieve your goal soon!" Shinjo waved to the sky with relief as his sister looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Brother, what are you doing? Is there something in the sky?" Mayumi looked up curiously and then made a mischievous smile.

At the same time.

Inside the command room of the Atlas.

Although Megumi and her group did not witness the specific battle, everyone saw the scene where the black mist in the sky dissipated and Gatanothor was instantly killed by the light.

Not only them, but people all over the world saw that scene through the ground wave signal relay of the Atlas.

Although the first wave of the Zunga attacks caused significant casualties worldwide, not all regions were able to evacuate in time, and many pilots were killed in the fight, people are still curious about why the disaster ended so suddenly.

I'm curious about who exactly destroyed Gatanothor.

Gatanothor doesn't seem particularly special in the video, but the moment this monster dies, Zoga, which are distributed all over the world, almost immediately self-destruct, and the darkness disappears without a trace.

Clearly, Gatanothor is the source of darkness.

"That's no ordinary monster," Noriyuki retorted anxiously after obtaining the data. "That monster is a thousand meters tall, and its mere awakening altered the entire ocean's topography. At first, even Rivia and Tiga combined couldn't get close! It's absolutely the strongest... no, absolutely the absolute strongest monster ever!"

Upon hearing this, Megumi smiled, but quickly became serious and said, "Yorui is right. That monster once destroyed an ancient civilization, and those black mists are probably its handiwork."

"So that's how it is."

The command center's top brass finally had a clear understanding, and Director Sawai, as the highest-ranking person in charge, sighed with relief.

"So, just like in the ancient times, did the giants leave Earth after rescuing us?"

"That's still not entirely certain..."

Megumi noticed the hint in Sawai's eyes and quickly changed her words in response.

"However, according to Daigo and the others' report, that should be the case. Perhaps they don't want humanity to become too dependent on the Titans and repeat the mistakes of 30 million years ago."

Police Chief Yoshioka noticed the exchange between the two men and scoffed, "The question is whether the same crisis will occur again in the future."

"Now is not the time to talk about this," Sawai said with a gentle smile, gathering everyone together. "Everyone was frightened too, so let's go back to base first and rest for a few days after we've dealt with the aftermath."

The Knights did not participate in the TPC meeting, but they also did not leave the instance immediately.

Although the trip to Monster Island was dangerous, they did gain quite a few points.

Especially when the final beast tide broke out, many of the monsters that died tragically became their source of points.

"I've made up my mind," Fujiwara Saiji said with high spirits. "I'm going to embark on a journey through this world. There must be many monsters yet to be discovered."

"Are you going to dig up monster eggs again?"

Onoue Takumi remained noncommittal about this guy's new hobby.

No monster likes having its eggs stolen.

"Be careful not to cause a big disaster."

"Where's the captain?" Fujiwara Saiji ignored the warning and turned to Asami Hiroko to ask. "Time flows fast here, and player identities don't affect real-world age, so it's like we can get many years for free..."

"They're already D-level life forms, why are they still concerned about age?"

Hiroko Asami chuckled softly.

It's hard to say exactly how many years a Class D life form can live, but it definitely far exceeds that of a normal human.

"I'm going back to my original world. From now on, I'll let Emu lead the team. I feel more at ease with him around."

"Huh? Why?"

"I wasn't originally a combatant. Besides, someone has to deal with the troubles in this world. After the team was wiped out twice, those aliens might blame us."

Hiroko Asami waved her hand casually, took a deep breath of the moist air facing the sea breeze, and regrouped to exit the instance in the dim light.

"Keep it up, everyone!"

"The captain is always so full of energy," Takumi Onoue remarked. "I thought she would be very sad."

"Idiot, our captain is so strong-willed, even if he's heartbroken, how could he possibly let us see it?"

"Let's go!"

The Cavaliers set off again, and before leaving, they waved goodbye to Newtown on the deck.

I have a feeling we'll meet again someday, but I probably won't be Tetsuo Shinjo anymore.

……

Dark Universe.

Xia Chuan withdrew his gaze from the Ultraman Tiga instance.

A second wave of crisis will emerge in more than 10 years, and it remains to be seen whether Dyna will be successfully launched.

There are still many mysteries surrounding Earth, and of course, many monsters as well.

"Whoosh!"

A flash of light pulled Xia Chuan back to reality.

However, the red gemstone obtained from Daigo had a completely new reaction.

A bright line points into the depths of the universe.

He originally intended to save it to find other copies related to the original Ultraman later, but now the Dark Universe has come in handy.

"That direction?"

Xia Chuan temporarily canceled his exploration of the "Gaia" instance, and the giant's body transformed into a red ball of light and flew into the deep space of the universe at the speed of light.

The Gaia instance will remain there and will not disappear; you can collect Ultra Cards whenever you wish.

New clues in the darkness may be fleeting, and it's unknown how long the ruby ​​can last.

"Clang!"

The red orb occasionally passed through a fantastical zone of light, moving slowly yet swiftly through the silent, lonely universe.

After traversing several galaxies and losing track of time, the ruby ​​finally guided them to their destination.

A colossal planet, also frozen in ice, entered Xia Chuan's perception.

"here it is……"

Xia Chuan traversed the Dead Star zone, which resembled a defensive line, and even before approaching the frozen planet, he saw numerous traces of civilization.

Many of the outer planets appear to have been artificially programmed into orbits, and some military installations buried in dust can be vaguely found.

"call!"

Xia Chuan transformed from the red orb of light back into his giant form, slowed down, and leaped to land on a defensive planet.

The long, rod-shaped weapon with its window panes was stuck diagonally in the crater, seemingly having endured a long period of time, giving it a strong sense of the passage of time.

Gigabit Fighting Device.

It is a super weapon once used by Ultraman Belial, a traitor to the Land of Light. It is capable of both long-range and close-range combat, and can be used for both offense and defense. It is a Reionics weapon specifically designed to control monsters in battle.

In Belial's hands, evil thoughts seem to be amplified and transformed into power; the stronger the desire to fight, the greater the power becomes when wielding a weapon.

But now, only half of it remains.

"Click!"

Xia Chuan gently pulled out the Gigabit Fighting Device, but sensed no energy. The energy had completely dissipated, indicating that it had been at least ten thousand years since the device broke.

It's hard to imagine what happened in the past.

In his mind, Belial should have reached the level of a big boss who dominated the multidimensional universe, and even the Land of Light was almost destroyed by him. In the end, he died at the hands of his son Geed in the New Ultra Era.

The true outcome is unknown, but the Giga Combat Device, which is like a divine artifact, should be indestructible.

Without lingering for long, Xia Chuan casually tossed the combat device into the system space and instantly appeared on another planet's satellite.

Deep underground, in a crater-like formation, something seemed to be transmitting a signal.

"Bang--!"

Xia Chuan crossed his arms, controlled the energy output to blast the ground, and then grabbed a broken bracelet-shaped piece of equipment from the dust.

The Zero Ultimate Bracelet, obtained by Ultraman Zero from Noah, is an important tool for Zero to perform various ultimate legendary transformations. It seems to contain Noah's power, allowing the wearer to easily travel through multiple universes.

After storing the bracelet in the system panel, Xia Chuan stood still for a long time without making any move.

Although he hadn't yet traveled to the frozen planet, he already had a guess.

Judging from the ruby's reaction and the surrounding situation, the frozen planet should be the Land of Light he has been longing for.

The space port, now an iceberg, and the Plasma Spark Tower, the greatest symbol of the Land of Light, can be seen from afar in space.

He is undoubtedly the last Ultraman now.

With the last glimmer of hope in his heart completely extinguished, Xia Chuan turned his gaze back to the lower-dimensional dungeon group.

The Dark Universe is the Dark Universe.

Perhaps each instance was once a real world, but the afterglow of the past after its destruction became an instance.

Just like the Knight universe.

Will this universe be the next one?

"Whoosh!"

Xia Chuan eventually descended upon the frozen Land of Light, attempting to clean up and restart the Plasma Spark Tower, but failed.

It only melts the surface ice; the core plasma sparks inside have been extinguished for countless years.

Fortunately, he now has two Ultraman dungeons providing energy, so he's not completely stuck here.

Spaceport, sports center, school, security headquarters...

Xia Chuan quickly passed through the main area, hoping to find something useful.

Unfortunately, it wasn't just frozen; the Land of Light itself was completely destroyed.

After going back and forth, all they found in the Science Bureau were some scientific materials that they couldn't understand.

I really can't understand it; I can't even understand the text.

Only a few signed patterns could be sensed as remnants of the Land of Light. After all that trouble, they managed to barely acquire the wormhole teleportation ability.

To return to that planet, all we need to do is open a tunnel of light.

There was at least some gain.

The remaining information can only be stored for now; it might contain clues about the dark universe, but there's nothing we can do if we can't read.

Even the Land of Light has become like this in the Dark Universe; there's not much hope for anything else.

We still need to rely on dungeon exploration.

The Land of Light is gone in reality, but it still exists in the game.
