The Method to Revive the Giants

……

"I don't understand. I can tell that this is probably a prophecy. Based on our previous exploration of the ruins, we can conclude that the ancient civilization was destroyed by external forces, and that this terrifying being will also descend upon our era..."

But the giants, the gods in their mythology… does that mean they too will return from the universe?

"No, some of the giants remained on Earth and slept for a full thirty million years."

Ye Shou stepped forward at the opportune moment: "This time capsule is a warning from the ancient people to us. We must prepare for the end of the world, and the giants are willing to help us, as long as we can awaken them."

"Kuse-kun...do you know him very well?"

“I came into contact with the ancient civilization relatively early, and like Masaki-kun, I conducted research in private.”

Ye Shou smiled slightly: "Moreover, I can tell you with certainty that we already have clues about the location of the pyramids, the place where the giants sleep."

"Oh, oh, oh!"

"As expected of the Kuze Group, their intelligence capabilities are truly exceptional!"

"Really?" Masaki Keigo was the most excited. "You found the pyramids?!"

He had seen Ultraman in his dreams long ago, and before joining TPC, he searched for ancient ruins all over the world, but to no avail. He could hardly control himself when he heard Ye Shou's words.

"That's right, it's just that the location is a bit inconvenient."

"Location?"

"Excuse me, I'd like to interrupt."

Dr. Tango frowned: "I think I understand what the pyramids and giants mean... What are Golza and Melba here? They sound terrifying. Are they the culprits that wiped out the ancient times?"

"Hehe~" Ye Shou didn't say anything, but just laughed happily.

The Su Na Mountain base was exceptionally busy today. Staff members moved frequently within the vast mountain interior and underground space, and the exchange of various instructions was somewhat chaotic.

Even though I'm well-trained on a regular basis, I still get a bit flustered when it really comes down to it. But that's okay, I'll get used to it after a few more tries.

...They will have many opportunities to practice.

In his private hangar, Masaki Keigo, with the help of ground crew, put on a pressure suit and laboriously moved to the elevator platform. In the giant pit in front of him was a mechanical structure with a streamlined shape and a auger at the front, which looked like a shark.

Three pyramids have been discovered so far, one of which is in an extremely difficult location, two thousand meters underground. Even superalloy probes would find it difficult to reach that depth, and sending people down to investigate would be extremely dangerous, let alone excavating the ruins.

However, the appearance of the time capsule signifies an impending danger, and everyone agrees that they should race against time to find the legendary giant as soon as possible.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Masaki Keigo stepped forward with his "Subterranean Shark Gaiozak" and resolutely took on this difficult task.

"Don't force yourself if you can't find it. Protecting yourself is the most important thing, understand?" Ye Shou earnestly reminded him before leaving.

Masaki Keigo nodded solemnly, then smiled smugly: "Although there's no reason, I feel I can definitely find... a pyramid buried deep underground, and my robot just happens to have the ability to dig it up. Isn't this fate?"

"Do you, Tsubasa Riku, believe in fate?"

"If it's a good thing, I'll believe it; if it's a bad thing... then of course, human will can overcome fate!"

Masaki Keigo took the helmet and, pulling on the cable, followed the elevator platform to the entrance of the underground shark. This excavator was different from what Ye Shou remembered. Perhaps because it was not yet perfected, there was no biomass surface layer on its body to protect the internal structure. It was only covered by well-sealed armor.

Just as Masaki was about to depart, an urgent communication came through TPC. The two men checked it separately:

"A monster!?"

Masaki was taken aback: "A monster has appeared at this time?"

At this moment, even someone as confident as him couldn't help but begin to doubt whether his "fate" was good or bad.

"Unexpected changes... they might be after the pyramids, and you might encounter danger if you go now."

Ye Shou asked seriously, "What do you intend to do?"

"...I want to go!"

Masaki raised his head, his eyes resolute: "Some opportunities, once missed, will never come again!"

"Ok."

"I might have been a bit impulsive and willful, but..."

Masaki turned around and said apologetically to Ye Shou, "If I don't come back, everything will be in your hands from now on!"

Without further hesitation, the man put on his helmet and crawled into the mechanical shark's body.

Chapter 277: Today I will show you mercy! (Bonus Chapter)

The ancient silence of the Siberian permafrost was shattered by a roar from the depths of the earth!

The solid, iron-like earth suddenly arched upwards, cracking open deep, dark fissures. Ice, snow, and frozen soil were violently lifted into the air by a forceful power, only to fall back down like hailstones.

"Roar!!!"

With a deafening roar, a colossal creature burst through the earth, revealing its massive body covered in a rough, dark brown carapace—it was none other than the ancient monster, Golza!

However, unlike Ye Shou's memory, this Golza had undergone an extremely bizarre change in appearance. Its shoulders, back, limbs, and even the top of its head were wrapped in dark brown vines that carried an ominous aura and slowly writhed like living creatures.

These vines are deeply embedded in its flesh and fused with it, and at some joints bloom pale flowers that emit a faint glow.

Golza's tyrannical eyes were now clouded with a murky shadow, making them appear even more dangerous and wild.

"Awooo—!" Golza roared to the sky, shaking the air and causing ripples to spread across the surface of the water.

It tossed its massive head, seemingly adapting to the unfamiliar landscape. Then, its murky, bewildered gaze locked onto the distant horizon, where faint lights shone—emanating from one of the very few human settlements on this land.

Despite having slept for thirty million years and undergoing incomprehensible changes in his body, Golza still knew his duty—to exterminate humanity and all life he saw.

call!

It took heavy steps, just as prophesied, causing the earth to tremble, advancing in that direction with each step leaving a crater.

However, before Golza even reached its destination, the Earth Defense Force had already deployed "spaceplanes" to the location:

From a distance, all that could be seen were rows of silver triangular fighter jets resembling cones. They were incredibly fast; just as their presence was observed at the edge of the horizon, they had already swept past overhead in the blink of an eye, while the strong winds and whistling sounds would arrive several breaths later.

Once the monster entered firing range, the upper part of the triangular fighter suddenly split apart, transforming into two shields. Then, the humanoid mech automatically detached due to air resistance, leaving behind a shuttle-shaped fighter with outstretched wings.

"Daigu Machine, dismantling complete!"

"Everything is going well, the monster is now within sight!"

Shinjou, wearing a power suit that also provides anti-G capabilities, had his tactical goggles firmly locked onto Golza.

With TPC's current technology, ordinary long-range missiles are unlikely to pose a threat to the monsters. It would be best to use high-powered lasers or electromagnetic cannons. However, to hit the enemy with these two weapons, the engagement distance cannot be too far, which means that the pilot will also be within the monster's attack range, which is a great psychological test for the pilot.

—But this isn't the first time Xincheng has done something like this.

In comparison, crashing a helicopter into a building is just as insane!

"This is Daigo. Target confirmed, it should be [Golza]!"

But... what are those things on your body?

On the communication channel, Daigo Madoka's astonished voice rang out.

"I don't know why, but I feel very strange."

"Who cares, but we absolutely cannot let it get close to the settlements!" Xincheng's voice followed closely behind, as fearless as ever.

"Attract its attention! Lure it into no man's land—open fire!"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Intermittent flashes of lightning streaked across the sky, but these were actually the wing beams of particles from the shuttle-shaped fighter jet, "Flying Swallow Zero."

Although the shots were extremely fine, their density made them appear as if a horizontal "band of light" was shining on Golza—

The sparks instantly burst into a continuous burst!

"Roar!" Golza was in great pain and almost immediately shot out a penetrating beam of light from the energy organ on his forehead, which swept across the sky as he swung his head.

"what!"

Shinjo barely managed to dodge the impact while piloting the experimental machine, but the speed was too fast and it almost collided with Golza. After narrowly avoiding the collision, it was difficult to adjust its direction for a while.

How could the monster let him go so easily? It turned around and aimed its energy organ at [Flying Swallow Zero] again—

call out!

A beam of light struck Golza's thick back precisely, exploding into a small burst of energy. Golza growled in pain and paused slightly in its tracks.

"Success!" Daigo breathed heavily. As a Gundam pilot who was forced into the role, he was naturally nervous and excited to face an enemy tens of meters tall in his first real battle.

However, perhaps due to his innate talent as a warrior, Daigo quickly calmed down: "Execute the battle plan now, lure the monster to the no-man's land, buy time and wait for reinforcements."

"Very good." Ye Shou was not present at the scene, but was watching the battle from a thousand miles away.

At the same time, he was also keeping an eye on Masamu's progress, the exploration of the three pyramids, and guarding against the possible appearance of Melba—which made him secretly determined to form the "Victory Team" after this matter.

Let's leave the commander's job to Megumi or Munakata!

"Lead Golza to the southwest, and reinforcements will arrive with heavy firepower in a few minutes."

"understand!"

Daigo immediately piloted his MS to flank from the side, raising his beam rifle and firing repeatedly, trying to completely enrage the behemoth.

"Roar!"

Golza was indeed disgusted by this "fly" and abandoned interest in the settlement. Instead, he swung his huge claws at the mobile suits that were moving nimbly in the air, as frantically as a black bear chasing away bees.

"Daigo, watch out!" The shuttle-shaped fighter jet turned around, and Shinjo's cheerful voice and the electromagnetic cannon's projectiles arrived almost simultaneously.

Bang!

"What are you looking at?!" Daigo launched another attack.

"Roar~~~"

"Daigo, you cover me, I'll go all out!"

Shin-chan shouted in the channel, and then the wings of the Flying Swallow Zero spread open, with yellow light shining from the wingtips on both sides. The main body of the fighter slid open its belly armor, revealing a large-caliber electromagnetic cannon that needed a short charge.

"Understood!" Daigo agreed without hesitation.

However, he soon noticed something amiss:
