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

Next, we'll be heading to the Orb universe. Also, I should mention that I don't know much about the Orb Super and R/B Super novels, so there might be some omissions from just watching the videos. If there are any plot differences from the Super series, please consider them as secondary interpretations and don't take them too seriously.

After all, there are many things that even Tsuburaya Productions officials don't understand, so the author can only try his best to explain them.

Finally, please consider giving me a tip, brothers! If you don't want to tip, you can at least click the "remind me to update" button. The author is really broke lately...

Chapter 512 The Invasion of the Zettonians

The outer reaches of Erobasa in the Orb Universe.

An alien with antennae on its head, jet-black skin with milky-white stripes, stood on the floor of the spaceship, surveying the planet before it.

"Hmm, I've heard that rare psycho-parasitic life forms live on this planet. I'm currently short on funds, so I might as well scavenge here. If I can find a buyer willing to pay a high price for such a rare life form, then I'll have a source of funds for upgrading Zetton."

The guy in front of me who looks just like a Kemurian is actually a Zettonian. He's been so worried about funding and resources lately that even the antennae on his head are drooping.

To solve their funding problems, the Zettonians bought the planet inhabited by this rare life form from their peers at a high price, intending to take it to a cosmic auction house and make a fortune.

Speaking of auction houses, the Jetton aliens want to curse. After the auction house of the Machindo aliens was destroyed, the upstream and downstream industrial chains of the auction house were inexplicably destroyed by a monster that was all blue and looked like a duck.

This has caused the channels for aliens to dispose of stolen goods to shrink, otherwise the Zettonians wouldn't be so worried.

I've heard that Nostra, a member of the Planetary Invasion Alliance, has revived a cosmic auction industry chain and is buying up goods at high prices.

The duck-like monster did not come to cause trouble, which gave aliens like the Zettonians an opportunity, and they began to scavenge for various rare resources throughout the universe.

"For the glory of the Zettonians and Zetton, I will definitely slap those guys who claim that the Baltanians understand Zetton better than the Zettonians in the face!!"

Thinking of this, the Zettonians couldn't help but feel excited. Zettons were a specialty of their Zetton planet, but they had been made famous by various Baltan aliens in the universe.

Now the Zettonians can't hold their heads high in public. Whenever they try to boast about how strong their Zettons are, others will say something like, "..."

"Is your Zetton very strong? But I heard there's a Zetton from Baltan Alien...blah blah blah..."

The Zetton aliens were always speechless, and could only swallow their tears silently, determined to make them pay in the future.

"Once my ex-Zetton is born, you'll all have to kneel down and lick my shoes!!"

With high hopes in mind, the Zettonians piloted their spaceship and plunged into Elobassa.

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

On the planet Elobassa, there lives a group of parasitic life forms.

Lacking usable bodies, these parasitic life forms maintain a relatively ancient way of life. The planet has no advanced weapons or modern creations, and overall, they live a peaceful and uncontested existence.

Since they have no physical bodies, only a misty, ethereal substance, these life forms do not engage in any battles. Instead, a clan leader decides on clan affairs.

In addition, the harsh environment of Elobasa means that ordinary aliens would not come here, so these life forms are safe in most cases.

However, the tribe recently received news that the coordinates of their home planet have been leaked. Therefore, the tribe leader has strictly ordered everyone to keep their identities hidden and to migrate to another planet once the storm has passed.

After all, the aging patriarch was well aware of how rare his race was in the universe, and that if he was not careful, he could be captured and enslaved, used as an object of interest, or even transformed into a weapon.

To prevent his people from facing such a tragic future, he ordered them to make good use of their mist-like bodies and merge into the surface of the planet.

It was precisely through this method that they evaded wave after wave of aliens. However, after hiding for so long, some of the younger generation would eventually change their minds.

"Phew... It's been so long since we've come out. Hiding underground like this is so annoying. The chieftain said aliens will come to capture us, but what's there to be afraid of..."

On the desolate land, a wisp of dark blue mist drifted slowly forward, taking in the surrounding scenery as it flew.

"There are no stars underground, no vast plains, nothing at all. Staying there all the time would be suffocating!"

This is the spirit parasite that secretly ran out from underground. Because it is still young and lively, it naturally could not stay underground. Taking advantage of the fact that the other tribesmen were not paying attention, it secretly ran out on its own.

Just as he was strolling leisurely, a series of explosions suddenly came from afar.

"Huh? What is that?"

Curiosity drove the dark blue mist to drift over, where it cautiously hid behind a rock, peeking out a small portion to peer ahead.

"This is!!"

In the middle of a mountainous area, a monster resembling a longhorn beetle was spewing fireballs, bombarding the surrounding land.

Every time a patch of land was blasted flat, the monster would step forward to investigate, as if searching for something.

The dark blue mist suddenly receded, and two red eyes flickered a few times before sneaking out again.

Looking at the monster, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"That... could it be the monster weapon the chief mentioned that aliens use...? How terrifying..."

The monster wreaking havoc was Zetton, and above Zetton, the Zettonians were maneuvering their spaceship to scan and search for traces of the group of parasitic life forms.

"Damn it!! How can these guys hide so well?! No wonder that Guts alien was so kind as to sell me the coordinates, turns out they were impossible to catch!!"

The Zettonians felt they had been tricked, and they had plenty of evidence. No wonder this coordinate was circulating among various hunters in the universe; the Zettonians hadn't been able to figure it out before.

If there is a source of goods, shouldn't normal people keep it a secret? Why would someone release the coordinates?

Now he understood: since no one else could catch these parasitic life forms, they sold the coordinates to others and made money off the coordinates.

Even after figuring this out, the Zettonian had no choice. He had used up all his remaining possessions to buy coordinates in order to upgrade Zetton. If he returned empty-handed, he would never be able to hold his head up again.

Just as he was feeling anxious, suddenly, the spacecraft's probes started beeping.

"You found something?!"

The Zettonian peered over in surprise and saw a location marked on the screen, where a cloud of blue-black mist was cautiously staring at the spaceship.

The dark blue mist thought it was well hidden, but little did it know that from the perspective of the spaceship high in the sky, it had nowhere to hide.

"Found you, my little darling!!"

Chapter 513 Who are you?!

Under the command of the Zettonian, Zetton locked onto the dark blue mist and took a step forward.

"Wow!!!"

The dark blue mist immediately realized it had been discovered, let out a startled cry, and charged at full speed toward the underground cave where its tribe was hiding.

Although the spiritual life forms here exist in the form of mist, even mist cannot merge into the airtight stone without warning. Therefore, when this group seeks refuge, they choose a sufficiently hidden underground cavern.

They could use the complex terrain inside the underground cavern to evade potential pursuit, since as a wisp of mist, they could move freely through any gap.

However, as it ran, the dark blue mist tragically realized that it hadn't notified anyone when it came out, and because it was so engrossed in the scenery, it had unknowingly strayed too far from the cavern, and now it seemed impossible to run back...

Left with no other choice, the fog quickly changed its strategy, leading Jaden in circles through the desolate valley, as he silently cheered himself on.

"We can't just go back into the cave like this. What if we're discovered while we're hiding? Watch me! I know this area very well. That monster definitely can't catch me!"

Thanks to its mist-like body structure, this bluish-black mist can easily pass through many seemingly impassable gaps.

On the other hand, Zetton, due to its enormous size, could only keep spewing fireballs to blast away the obstacles in front of it, and for a while it couldn't catch up with the cloud of mist.

The situation seemed to have reached a stalemate, but the Zettonian remained unperturbed and sneered.

"So that's how it is, you want to wear down my, Zetton's, stamina..."

"But don't forget, as a space dinosaur, Zetton's strength, speed, and stamina are all top-tier among monsters!! Let me show you Zetton's true power!!"

At the command of the Zettonian, Zetton suddenly stopped. The blue-black mist glanced back and, seeing that the other party had stopped, immediately shouted triumphantly, like a child.

"Hey!! Big monster, can't run anymore, can you!!"

While mocking, the mist also twisted its body, looking as if it were dancing.

The Zettonians inside the spaceship heard the childish shouts of the mist and smiled slightly.

"Hmph, so it's just a brat. No wonder I found him so easily. Looks like I got lucky today. Go, Jaden!!"

Jaden suddenly put his hands together at his waist and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.

"Ugh?"

Before the dark blue mist could react, it suddenly heard the sound of something falling behind it. It turned around shakily and saw that the Jaden had already come up behind it.

Zetton stared emotionlessly at the dark blue mist, and the capture device on his shoulder activated instantly, capturing the other party into the container on Zetton's body before the other party could react.

"Waaaaaah!!"

Caught by the light, the dizzy blue-black mist looked around and realized that it was trapped in this transparent container, unable to find a way out no matter how much it bumped around.

The Zettonian spaceship arrived above Zetton, teleporting the Zettonian onto Zetton's shoulder. The Zettonian patted the container trapping the blue-black mist with satisfaction and laughed triumphantly.

"How about that? Weren't you so arrogant? Why aren't you arrogant now!"

As their gaze drew closer, looking at the trembling, dark blue mist, the Zettonian shook his head and said cruelly.

"Hahaha, I originally thought that capturing one life form on this planet would be enough, but seeing how arrogant you are, I've changed my mind."

The cold words echoed in the dark blue mist.

"I'm going to study you all thoroughly. Once I've figured you all out and you can't escape, I'll capture every single life form on this planet and reunite you all at the cosmic auction house."

"At that point, whether you become weapons or slaves won't be up to you, hahahaha!!"

The Zettonian laughed wildly, the blue-black mist curling up into a ball, as if in doing so, it could stop it from thinking about the tragic future the Zettonian had described for itself and its people.

"Oh dear, I can't agree to something like that..."

Just as the Zettonian was indulging in his delusions, a calm voice suddenly rang out, interrupting his laughter.

"Who?!"

The Zettonian turned its head sharply, and the blue-black mist trapped in the container also opened its eyes wide, looking over in disbelief.

Could it be... that someone has come to rescue him?

On a distant mountain peak, a human man wearing a blue coat, whose face was obscured, was leisurely watching them. Clearly, the words of rebuttal had just come from him.

...Yes, relaxed. That's how the Zettonian perceived the aura emanating from that mysterious figure. The other party seemed to completely disregard him!

Faced with the Zettonian's question, the mysterious man did not introduce himself, but instead spoke calmly.

"No matter what, it's too cruel to put all the life on an entire planet into an auction house. What do you think, buddy?"

"Cruel...heh..."

The Zettonian listened to the mysterious man's words and chuckled disdainfully.
