Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

In Gotham, a glint flashed in Bruce's eyes.

Finally, you guys brought up the crystal issue on your own initiative. Now he can smoothly jump in without it feeling awkward at all. He can also gain some goodwill by turning the slight animosity that Hachiman Hikigaya and the others have towards him into guilt and remorse. It's a huge win!

【I am Batman】: "Speaking of crystals, there is something I have kept hidden for a long time and have never said."

【I am Batman】: "I wanted to say it when it first happened, but Kasa said he was busy out and about, so I thought I shouldn't bother you or distract you, and that's why I kept putting it off until now."

【I am Batman】: "But now that I know all this, I can no longer remain silent."

"Huh?"

Upon seeing this, Hachiman Hikigaya, Yuta Hibiki, and Miko Yotsuya were all taken aback, knowing that since Uncle Luther was speaking so solemnly, it must be a major event.

Today was just too damn explosive!

After several major news bombshells, including the evil spirit apocalypse, terrifying black fog, the uncle being Ultraman, and an evil god traveling through different universes, what else is coming?

Their little hearts could barely take it.

【I am Batman】: "Don't be afraid when I tell you."

[Pro-war faction]: "I'm not afraid, please speak."

【I am Batman】: "Actually, the crystal you gave me... when it first arrived here, it automatically released all its energy and was completely exhausted within three seconds. After that, not a single evil spirit or black mist or anything like that appeared there!"

Chapter 79 Gotham? I'd better go find the King of Ultra!

"what?"

The system crashed.

Miko Yotsuya, Hachiman Hikigaya, and Yuta Hibiki were all at a loss as to how to deal with this explosive development.

We just finished resolving a major incident involving the followers of an evil god, and now an even more significant one has emerged.

You know, it's true that the crystals from Kassagi couldn't possibly deal with so many black mists, but there were just too many of them. For example, the mountain-sized evil spirit that was fused with the black mist at the beginning, couldn't the crystals have taken it all down with them?

But now, Uncle Luther says that the crystals were used up in less than three seconds after they arrived at his side, and this was all under the condition that everything looked perfectly normal in the world, with no abnormalities or enemies in sight.

This is outrageous!

They were wiped out in three seconds without even the enemy appearing. Just from this performance, anyone can deduce that Uncle Luther's problem is definitely a level higher than all the black mist in the world of the child combined!

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "Although it's a bit too late to say this now, I still want to say it one more time."

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "What the hell kind of casual chat group is this?!"

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "One is a world of evil spirits and a universe of Ultraman. Now, even Uncle Luther's side might be hiding a movie-level overpowered evil god!"

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "So now it might still be a normal everyday life, right? It's just me and Yuta left, isn't it?"

[Coward]: "Sad, I think we can give up hope. Who knows what we might be hiding that's even more outrageous than what Uncle Luther has."

Hibiki Yuta held his forehead with one hand and ground his teeth as if they ached.

Now, with members of the group constantly dropping bombshells from different worlds, he probably wouldn't be too surprised if someone told him that his world actually has a lot of monsters.

Compared to the truths of Uncle Kassa and Uncle Luther, ordinary monsters are probably insignificant.

Aside from Yotsuya Miko, who was directly involved, both Hikigaya Hachiman and Hibiki Yuta were somewhat dissatisfied that Uncle Luther hadn't expressed his opinion since the start of today's live stream and hadn't lent out any crystals.

But now?

What's there to be dissatisfied about? Let it all go with the wind. Cherish every day Uncle Luther is still around.

After all, who knows, one day a wicked god might suddenly wake up on Uncle Luther's side and blow up the entire universe.

【I am Batman】: "Look, can you tell what's going to happen? @Pro-war faction."

Bruce, unusually, became expectant.

He's now both afraid that Kassa is too powerful and afraid that Kassa isn't powerful enough. He hopes that Kassa is strong enough to confidently believe that he can solve his problems, but he also hopes that Kassa is just someone who can be overturned by him.

This contradiction between his needs and his cautious personality made Bruce realize once again just how troublesome he was.

While asking questions, Bruce also sent photos he had taken of the crystals after all their energy had been consumed to the group, providing more evidence for Kasa's judgment.

"This……"

Looking at the photos that were sent, Kasa couldn't really make any arbitrary statements for the time being.

[Pro-war faction]: "Judging from the photos, only one thing is certain: there are indeed things in your world that are more dangerous than what Miko is facing."

[Pro-war faction]: "But there are three possibilities, and I am still unable to determine which one it is."

[Pro-war faction]: "An unknown evil god slumbers within the world, or perhaps your entire region has been cursed by something akin to an evil god, or perhaps..."

[Pro-war faction]: "It's also possible that there are too many dark beings on your side, so many that their numbers are incalculable, and they are all entrenched in that area. Therefore, although the individual strength of those dark beings may only be at the level of a single universe guard soldier, their sheer number has caused the dark environment to overflow, resulting in the power I left in the crystal reacting on the spot."

Kasa presented three hypotheses, which immediately caught the attention of Yotsuya Miko, Hikigaya Hachiman, and Hibiki Yuta.

Although the first and second hypotheses are too terrible, it is clear that they are things that Uncle Kassapa cannot solve by himself.

But if it's actually just the third case, then wouldn't it be possible to completely eliminate it by using small amounts multiple times?

Although no one has asked about Uncle Kasa's status in the Land of Light yet, just based on his ability to grow to enormous size and his M87 Ray, even a fool would know that Uncle Kasa is at least on par with the Ultra Brothers in terms of strength.

Such a powerful uncle, if he stays with Uncle Luther for a while longer, grinding monsters every day, he can surely clean up the mess in the time it takes to watch a whole series, right?

As for why such a powerful uncle didn't appear in tokusatsu shows, that's normal. There are so many Ultramen in the Land of Light, not every Ultraman has his own TV series.

Moreover, even if tokusatsu films are largely consistent with reality, there will definitely be some differences. For example, the Gaia TV that the child in the Gaia movie watches is not exactly the same as the actual Gaia TV.

But compared to the optimistic mindset of these three innocent high school students, Bruce never thought things would turn out well from the beginning. After a moment of thought and contemplation, he finally came up with a groundbreaking hypothesis.

【I am Batman】: "What if, in fact, all three of these situations are present on my end?"

[Coward]: "?"

[Best Actor]: "?"

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "?"

No, sir, is your mindset really that pessimistic?

The three innocent high school students couldn't hold back on the spot. They finally saw what a real pessimist was. Damn, this mindset is too pessimistic!

[Dead Fish Eyes]: "Don't be so discouraged, Uncle Luther. Maybe it's even better than the third possibility!"

【I am Batman】: "Disheartened? No, I am not discouraged at all. This is just the most basic preparation. It is better to keep a low profile than to start by thinking positively but things keep getting worse."

【I am Batman】: "If you encounter this situation a lot, you'll understand what I mean."

He wouldn't be Batman if he didn't plan for the worst.

Since returning to Gotham in the past two years, Bruce has personally experienced at least dozens of situations like the one he described, where the Joker and the Riddler would always bring him unexpected surprises.

Of course, what was a surprise to these guys was a shock to him.

Although he always managed to handle things successfully in the end, Bruce would never forget that whenever he tried to be optimistic, the situation only got worse.

[Pro-war faction]: "Indeed, a pessimistic attitude is the way of a soldier in peacetime; the more cautious you are, the easier it is to win."

This time, Kassadin sided with Luthor.

Once a soldier has been on the battlefield many times, he will know that unless he is in a desperate situation, the more he makes assumptions about the lower limit, the more advantageous it is for his combat. This is because if an unexpected event occurs, it is very likely that you have already considered it in advance, so it is no longer considered an unexpected event.

But when you reach a truly desperate situation, when you encounter a truly dire and miserable state, you should be optimistic, because things can't get any worse.

Maintaining optimism in times like these can actually create a glimmer of hope.

But does Luther really have such a warrior's mentality? Isn't he a businessman?

Now is not the time to think about this.

Kassa thought for a moment.

[Pro-war faction]: "I checked, and it seems that after resolving the matter with Jianzi, the chat group gave me some points, enough for me to travel through time again."

[Pro-war faction]: "If you don't mind, I can go there now to see the situation on-site and investigate. If it's the third scenario, I should be able to resolve it, but it will take some time."

[Pro-war faction]: "If it's the first or second scenario, when I return to the Land of Light, I'll have the Science and Technology Bureau expedite the research on multiverse group teleportation technology. I'll then teleport the captain and a large number of elite space guards to your location to handle the situation."

[Pro-war faction]: "If all three scenarios are true..."

[Pro-war faction]: "Well, I'd better go to the Great King's planet as soon as possible and see if I can persuade the Great King to come."

Holy crap, the King of Ultra!

Upon seeing this name, everyone in the group, including Bruce, felt a jolt.

Although the Ultraman series on both Hachiman Hikigaya's and Miko's sides only goes up to Ultra Galaxy Empire, according to what Yuta Hibiki learned from Utsumi, there are several more works in Yuta's world.

One of them is an independent short drama called "Ultraman Golden Hits".

The content states that the entire history of the universe disappeared for some reason, thus fading the entire universe—in other words, the entire universe was frozen and has no future.

Then an unknown figure draped in red summoned Zero, claiming to be the guardian of all time and history—past, present, and future—and tasked Zero with retrieving the history of the Showa Ultramen.

As the person involved, Zero was most likely deceived by some kind of illusion, but damn it, as viewers, even a blind person could see that the so-called Red Him could not possibly be anyone else but the King of Ultra!

Nobody really knows how powerful this old man is or what he's capable of.

From saving Leo to instantly defeating Belial to revealing himself as the guardian of the universe and history, even the viewers could only see that the King of Ultra's performance increased as the situation became more serious.

But so far, not a single person can see where the limit of this terrifying Shenzhou-4 lies.

Because in the entire Ultraman multiverse, until now, there has never been an opponent who could force Old Wang to use his full strength!

The only thing that can be confirmed is that the King of Ultra is probably capable of easily destroying the entire universe. He is someone who is completely beyond the current imagination of humans and is no different from a god to Kasa and all the Ultra Warriors.

If what Kassadin brings to Bruce now is a glimmer of hope and an exciting and pleasant backup plan...

If Kassa were replaced by the King of Ultra, Bruce would simply remain calm and completely give up.

No, buddy, if the King of Ultra comes, what can't we handle?

At least for Bruce, he doesn't think Gotham is so terrifying as to have a multi-dimensional or even super-multi-dimensional entity. It's just a small city on a small planet. What makes it so special, right?

【I am Ultraman】: "No, no, it wouldn't be good to trouble the King of Ultra so easily, would it?"

【I am Ultraman】: "After all, if I remember correctly, the relationship between the Land of Light and the King of Ultra is quite delicate, isn't it?"

If needed, it would be best to bring them over.

But even though he had prepared for the worst, Bruce still hoped that something so devastating wouldn't get involved before the diagnosis.

After all, if it were just Kassadin, although he couldn't find any way to counter him at the moment, he could at least try to find one.
