Ultraman: He captures EyeQ at the start, a righteous and fun-loving man.

"Everyone, give the power of light to Zero!"

Countless Ultra Warriors and members of the Space Garrison below simultaneously extended their right hands, and golden light merged into Zero in the sky, gradually enveloping him.

Regard also extended his right hand, transferring energy as he shouted.

"Once you reach your destination, remember to send a signal to the plasma crystal bracelet. I will open a spatial portal and send everyone from the Land of Light there!"

Enveloped in countless beams of light energy, Zero did not answer. Instead, he made a gesture of acceptance. Once the energy reached its critical point, it transformed into a dazzling red sphere and shot out of the Land of Light at faster-than-light speed.

Along the way, countless planets passed by Zero. Star systems like our solar system were like grains of sand in the ocean, barely attracting any attention, and galaxies composed of hundreds of billions of stars were passed by in an instant.

And this is far from the limit of the universe. Even galaxies like the Milky Way appeared in hundreds or thousands in an instant, and countless galaxies gradually formed a star chain, with trillions of stars filling this vast universe.

Zero continued to advance, his speed exceeding the speed of light by countless times, making the scenery around him dreamlike. In this strange and colorful universe, the barrier of the universe gradually approached.

The power of the Land of Light came in handy at this moment. Light energy impacted the barriers of the universe, sending Zero out of this universe like a pebble thrown into water. When the energy around him dissipated, Zero looked around and was so shocked that he was speechless.

Beyond the universe lies hyperspace within the larger universe, where countless universes float, arranged and combined randomly like bubbles.

Behind each of these bubbles lies countless galaxies and life forms. Zero reaches out as if to touch the universe across countless light-years.

Suddenly, the plasma crystal bracelet on his wrist emitted a burst of light, pulling Zero back to his senses.

"On the way back, it can guide you..."

Upon hearing Seven's voice, Zero chuckled softly.

"What a worrywart old man..."

This feature was suggested by Seven. Although it seemed a bit redundant with Regard's cloak, everyone understood the father's love for his son and added the feature.

Meanwhile, another wave on the bracelet transformed into a beam of light, connecting to a strange and distant universe, and Zero's eyes narrowed.

"Is that the universe where Belial resides...?"

With this thought in mind, Zero no longer hesitated and flew towards that universe. However, the moment he entered that universe, a strange energy fluctuation suddenly swept over him, disrupting the coordinates stored in the bracelet.

"what?"

Zero quickly stopped and examined the bracelet carefully, discovering a problem.

The energy composition of this universe seems to be different. I can't seem to draw energy from this universe, and these strange cosmic particles are also interfering with the coordinates in my bracelet.

Not only Belial's coordinates, but even the coordinates of the Land of Light were interfered with.

Fortunately, he could still sense the coordinates Regard had left on him. If he could find a way to send a signal, Regard could open a portal through him.

Just as Zero was hesitating about whether to use up a plasma crystal first, he suddenly felt something calling to him.

Looking up, beyond the distant stars, a mysterious red light was drawing my attention.

"what is that?"

Zero instinctively felt that the red light was important to him, and since he still had enough energy, he simply flew directly towards the red light.

.....................

Meanwhile, in the skies above the Land of Light.

Shortly after seeing Zero off, Regard suddenly sensed something aggressively intruding into the airspace of the Land of Light. He flew into the sky and saw a strange, inverted mountain-shaped flying machine in front of him.

The aircraft's hull was still enveloped in some kind of dissipating bluish-green energy, and the aura carried by this energy momentarily distracted Regard.

"This is……"

The aircraft seemed to have locked onto Regard, and a huge red energy projectile was fired out, which Regard then casually punched away.

"Looks like the offensive has already begun..."

Regard muttered coldly, and a lightsaber emerged from his right fist, cleaving the aircraft in two with a single strike.

The wreckage of the spacecraft crashed onto the land of the Land of Light, from which three figures suddenly leaped out and attacked Regard simultaneously.

"As expected, it is Darklops Zero."

Regard stomped his right foot on the ground, and a terrifying force pressed down on the three Dark Lops Zeros. Taking advantage of their inconvenience, he decapitated all three of them with a single blow.

........................

Oh dear, I've finished up some work these past couple of days, please consider giving me a tip.

Chapter 280 Emerald Ore

Inside the Space Garrison base, everyone gathered around the remains of Dark Lops Zero, listening to Hikari report the results of his analysis.

"According to the analysis, these three Dark Lops Zeros should be mass-produced versions. Their energy source is not that kind of strange dimensional core, but a kind of green ore."

Hikari presented his analysis results, and he said in surprise.

"I never expected that there would be an energy source in that universe that could rival plasma crystals, and the production volume seems to be extremely large. No wonder Belial was able to raise such a large army in such a short time."

Eddie stretched out his hand, his palm shimmering with light. Soon, the core device emitted a faint black aura, flying out of the Land of Light and seemingly connecting to some other place.

Eddie said in a deep voice.

"Belial's device is very ingenious, transforming this attribute-less energy into negative energy with evil attributes. From what I've observed, it seems to be a kind of restoration device."

Upon hearing this, Zoffy asked in confusion.

"A reduction device? What exactly is this ore? Why does it need to be reduced? And why does it produce negative energy after reduction?"

Everyone fell silent for a moment. They couldn't understand why, if the essence of this ore was negative energy, it would transform into an ore with no attribute energy.

The thought of the green minerals that are found everywhere in the universe sent chills down everyone's spines.

If the entire universe is filled with negative energy, how can life come into being?

Looking at the ore that radiated evil energy, Regard suddenly reached out and touched it.

The Ultra Brothers looked at him, not understanding what he wanted to do.

A bolt of lightning shot from Regard's palm, instantly shattering a small piece of ore into particles. After carefully sensing the impact, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"This is... a mutant beast!"

Even before the aircraft carrying Dark Lops Zero was launched, Regard had already sensed something unsettling about it.

This discomfort isn't about physical strength; it's more like someone who's seen sheep poop before wouldn't mistake those black, spherical things for chocolate beans anymore—just seeing them makes them feel nauseous.

Therefore, Reggart had been pondering why this ore gave him this feeling until he personally broke it down into particles and analyzed it, at which point he suddenly understood.

That's right, it's a monster! This is ore that monsters have transformed into! That's why a restoration device is needed to restore the attribute-less ore into the negative energy that monsters once devoured.

Alien beasts grow by relying on the negative energy of living beings, so it's understandable that this device would restore them to negative energy.

But………

Regard suddenly felt as if he was getting goosebumps all over his body. Although Ultra Warriors don't have this ability, he just felt a tingling sensation all over his body.

An entire universe's worth of minerals... that means an entire universe's worth of alien beasts...

Regard felt a lingering fear when he recalled the horrific scenes he witnessed on Earth in Nexus, with countless people dying tragically.

Hikari noticed his reaction and asked curiously.

“Regat, you seem to know something about this ore. Can you tell me about it?”

Regard calmed himself down and said in a deep voice.

"That was an Earth I traveled to..."

...........................

Zero landed on a planet, and to his surprise, the planet was filled with robots causing destruction everywhere. Recalling the information in the Dark Loops Zero Database, he understood.

"So this is Reginald, the elite soldier of the Beria Empire? He's just like him..."

Just as Zero was about to make a move, two unusual people on the ground suddenly caught his attention.

"Yahoo!!"

A young man sat in a simple flying machine, maneuvering it left and right. Behind him, a little boy was firing at Reginald, who was chasing them, using the machine gun on the flying machine.

"Hehe, interesting."

Seeing this, Zero became interested. Since they seemed to be holding on, he decided to go and help other places first.

Zero leaped into the air and spun around the planet like a space-based weapon. The Eye of Ultra kept its eyes fixed on the earth, and whenever it saw Regine's figure, it would release a Zero Beam.

As if a rain of light was falling from the sky, Reginald was completely wiped out. The survivors stared wide-eyed, while the two boys watched in astonishment as their enemies behind them turned into a pile of scrap metal.

Zero's figure fell from the sky. Seeing the two people's surprised eyes, he felt a secret sense of satisfaction and subconsciously wiped his nose.

"Hehe, I'm Zero, Ultraman Zero. No need to thank me too much."

The little boy saw his face clearly, his eyes suddenly filled with terror, and he instinctively pulled out a gun from his waist, shouting.

"Brother Lan, it's Darklops!"

The man called Lan quickly pressed down on the gun in his brother's hand, and looked at Zero, who seemed a little helpless, and said loudly.

"I'm sorry, Xiaozhi, you're being too sensitive. I know you're a good person, thank you!"

As a more experienced young man, he could tell at a glance that the giant in front of him was different from Dark Lops, not only because of the liveliness of his eyes, but more so because of the kindness revealed in his actions.

After all, he genuinely helped them out of their predicament, which clearly indicates that he was an enemy of the Belial Empire.

Just as Zero was about to speak, the timer on his chest suddenly began to flash, and an indescribable feeling of exhaustion followed.

"how……"

This feeling, reminiscent of when he was first pinned down in K76 and knocked unconscious by Leo's flying kick, made Zero's heart tighten. It seemed that this universe couldn't provide him with any energy.

If this continues, without using the energy in the bracelet, he might have to cosplay as Uncle Man, who was defeated by Zetton.

However, this did not stump him. He had once preferred to skip Uncle Eddie's academic classes in order to pester Reggart for the skills he had been taught. It was time to put them to use.

To their astonishment, the giant before them shone with golden light, so bright that they covered their eyes for a moment. When the light faded, a cheerful young man was looking at them.

Zero reached out first, looked at his clothes, and then spoke to Arashi and Osamu.

"Hey everyone, I'm Ultraman Zero, but... for now, just call me Moroboshi Shin."

Brothers, I've been feeling sleepy this month due to medication, so updates have been a bit sporadic. Next month, I'm aiming for full attendance, updating twice a day. Does anyone have any tips on how to stay alert?
