Great, we're doomed now!

Ares withdrew her gaze, her tone becoming tense: "After finishing up the cleanup here, we still need to pass on the news of the impending awakening of the evil god to our other companions."

Formers responded, and the two turned and headed towards the airport control room.

There are still a host of issues to deal with, such as prisoner resettlement, resource allocation, and conflict mediation. The most urgent task is to persuade these "free men" not to inflict extrajudicial punishment on the surrendered prisoners...

The immigrant fleet sailed smoothly through space, making long-distance jumps every so often, steadily advancing towards Earth.

Inside the spaceship, Lucia was with her people. The children excitedly gathered around, chattering about things on Earth, while the adults were frantically brushing up on some basic knowledge of human society, their faces full of anticipation for their new life.

Ye Shou and Zheng Mu stood in the control room of the main ship, watching the sailing distance on the screen decrease continuously, both feeling quite pleased.

"I didn't expect this operation to go so smoothly." Masaki leaned against the control panel, his tone relaxed. "TPC should be able to properly accommodate the more than two thousand immigrants."

Ye Shou nodded without saying anything more.

[Beep! Beep! Beep!]

Just then, a piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the control room, and the lights flashed wildly.

"Warning! Abnormal gravitational wave interference! Warp drive forced to shut down!" The operator's voice was clearly panicked—he wasn't a professional, just someone with some knowledge who had been pulled in to make do.

"The fleet has exited the warp portal and entered uncharted space!"

"Don't panic." Ye Shou glanced at him. "Three, two..."

hum!

The ship shuddered violently for a moment, then returned to normal. Perhaps it was a stroke of luck, but there was not much damage.

However, the fleet could no longer move forward; instead, it struggled like worms trapped in slime, unable to move.

"This is... a star?"

"wrong!"

On the screen, the original jump trajectory diagram has transformed into an unfamiliar cosmic landscape, and not far ahead of the fleet, a massive dark celestial body is slowly rotating...

It was a completely "pale" sphere with no undulations on its surface, as if it were a perfectly geometric object created by human hands.

Its size is similar to that of an ordinary planet, but the surrounding space is distorted by its powerful gravity. When starlight from afar passes near it, it appears to bend significantly, causing unusually bright arcs of light to gather at its edges.

—In reality, its true form is pure black and nothingness.

"What is this?" Masaki asked in astonishment, his brows furrowed. "A natural supermassive... white dwarf? Its gravitational strength is incredibly strong."

“No, this is probably…” Ye Shou’s gaze darkened.

Damn, bringing others along was definitely the right thing to do!

I was just waiting for that, Gransfia!

Chapter 393: Beat It Until It Wills (4K)

During the "Kazuma Asuka Disappearance Incident," Ye Shou learned of Scia's existence and has been wary of this enemy ever since. As the final boss of an Ultraman series, his destructive power and sense of oppression are beyond doubt.

However, it has an "Achilles' heel," meaning that for Earth, which has more than one Ultraman, the level of threat is actually manageable.

Especially given that Ye Shou is well-informed, his original "Dark Planet" might not be as troublesome as the Sphia chimera derived from it.

—But all of this is under the premise of prior preparation. If you were to encounter it suddenly in the universe, that would be a completely different story.

Leaving aside its ability to devour everything and assimilate matter, its mere existence here is enough to destroy everything around it, and even tear space itself apart, because it is an existence born from the fusion of a higher life form and a planet.

A terrifying celestial body with near-infinite mass, capable of distorting even light.

To put it simply, it's a black hole!

However, this black hole is not the natural disaster described by scientists, but a "life" with consciousness!

It is the embodiment of greed, indiscriminately devouring all life and matter it encounters, constantly expanding its own existence until its darkness can cover the entire universe.

Its energy scale is...

"Unmeasurable!"

Masaki desperately tried to move the spaceship away from this place, but neither conventional power nor the warp drive worked.

Even the advanced technology of interstellar civilizations is powerless against such transcendent beings. The gravitational waves they naturally emit can reverse spacetime and pull them out of their jump state. Now that they have been firmly captured, escape is impossible.

The dark planet Gransphia slowly rotated, its suffocating gravitational field stirring up space, creating translucent ripples like thin gauze, which then grew larger and larger... like a giant whirlpool in the ocean, frantically pulling at the immigrant fleet.

Unsurprisingly, two-thirds of the spaceships immediately lost control. Even with their engines running at full power, they could not break free and, like fallen leaves blown away by the autumn wind, helplessly approached the planet.

Given the strength of their energy barriers, they were like bubbles, teetering on the brink of collapse under the crushing force. It was only a matter of time before they shattered. Perhaps the entire fleet, along with the immigrants inside, would be torn to shreds in the next second!

The slaves had a tragic fate. They had just been liberated from the cruel rule of the Muzhen Star people. Firstly, they had nowhere else to go, and secondly, they were grateful for the kindness of Ye Shou and Zheng Mu, so they hoped to start a new life on Earth.

This was inherently risky, since although they didn't know the extent of Gatanothor's power, various legends and prophecies hinted that Earth was not a paradise, but rather concealed some kind of terror.

However, they are not naive!

The slaves who survived in the death zone of Muzhen Star knew very well that if the dark forces truly won, then no matter where they fled, the outcome would be the same.

Even if one can live a short but peaceful life, what about one's descendants?

Do we want our descendants to live that kind of life someday in the future?

So why not follow the Ultra Warriors, stand firmly on the side of light, and contribute your own strength?

And they genuinely believed that Ye Shouhui would achieve final victory!

The hero who rescued them from hell would surely lead them through the trials of fate once again—everyone, including Lucia, firmly believed this.

Unexpectedly, they encountered an irresistible natural disaster even before reaching Earth... The level of misfortune was almost darkly humorous.

"Don't be afraid!"

"Don't give up!"

Having already been liberated once and regained hope, they will not easily give up again. Even if they are captured by the gravity of a black hole, some people are still trying to analyze the gravitational waveband and input new variables into the jump engine.

Unfortunately, the dark planet Gransphia is not a black hole in the conventional sense. The gravitational waves are controlled by it and have no absolute rules, so the spaceship was still inevitably pulled towards it...

However, their resistance was not entirely ineffective; it slowed down the process of being swallowed up. Just as the spaceship entered the edge of the arc-shaped area, before it entered the dark void, a beam of colored light suddenly shot out from the rear, precisely enveloping all the out-of-control spaceships!

The beam of light was gentle yet extremely powerful. Then, an incredible scene unfolded: the spaceships shrank to the size of car-sized dots of light, and were then quickly pulled back by the beam, gently landing on Ye Shou's outstretched palm.

—And he has already transformed into a giant form.

Ye Shou clenched his fist, turned around, and released the shrunken spaceship outside the "predation range" of the dark planet. It slowly returned to its original size and quickly rejoined the remaining fleet. Lucia received Ye Shou's telepathic message, glanced at Gransphia with concern, and then led the fleet on a long journey, flying a distance equivalent to a star system before finally getting rid of the gravitational wave's influence and temporarily stabilizing the situation.

The ancient-style Spark Lens lit up against the dark backdrop of the universe. A beam of light shot over and transformed into Ultraman Lucifer, standing shoulder to shoulder with Bayeri. The two tall figures blocked the fleet and Gransphia, their gazes fixed intently on the strange dark planet.

"Just like dealing with the golden dragon."

Ye Shou secretly sent a message to Zheng Mu: "None of us can break through this thing's defense, but when it displays its strongest power, it is also at its most vulnerable... Be careful not to get entangled. Once captured, even if you turn into energy, you will not be able to escape."

"Understood," Masaki said, waving his hands. "Then let's go!"

- Om!

Before the two giants could launch their attack, the edge of Gransphia's arc of light suddenly flashed, and thick streaks of azure lightning tore through the universe, striking the two giants like angry dragons.

The lightning bolt was as fast as lightning, but the distance was still far enough to leave the two of them a gap to dodge. Needless to say, Ye Shou's reaction speed and intuition were top-notch. Bayeli dodged it by sidestepping.

Having undergone grueling training, Masaki was already accustomed to such sudden attacks, and his body would instinctively react accordingly.

The lightning bolt missed its target and struck a nearby barren planet, darkening the space for a moment.

Instantly, a deafening explosion occurred!

It was like watching the embers on charcoal turn from red to black... At a speed visible to the naked eye, the entire surface was being ravaged by the power of lightning. Mountains collapsed, the earth cracked open, and deep, bottomless ravines crisscrossed the land. The high-temperature ion reaction turned everything into charcoal.

One-third of the planet's surface was reduced to scorched earth in mere seconds, and at least one-eighth of its volume exploded like a ripe fruit, with countless fragments and dust scattering into space...

Masaki was stunned!

He had long noticed the terrifying energy reaction of Gulansfia, but this kind of attack was truly unprecedented in his life!

This thing must not be allowed to enter the solar system; it must be dealt with in space!

"We can't just sit back and take a beating!"

Lucifer crossed his arms, conjuring a milky-white beam of light, which he then shot fiercely toward Gulansfia.

However, just as the light approached the planet, a red ray shot out from the dark planet's interior. The two collided violently in the air, and the energy shockwaves scattered in all directions, eventually canceling each other out and turning into countless particles of light.

Immediately afterwards, countless cracks appeared on the surface of Gransphia, from which monsters of various shapes flew out. Interspersed among them were countless small geometric shapes, which looked like both metal and living beings, as if they had been directly ripped off Gransphia... just like fungal spores, they were densely packed like locusts passing by, which horrified Masaki.

Leading the pack was a gigantic monster with a head covered in a hard carapace, somewhere between a dragon and an insect, its muscular body exuding a power comparable to or even surpassing that of a silver dragon!

Its mouth was flashing a blinding red light, the very culprit that had just shot out the crimson beam.

"hold head high!"

"roar~"

"Ow!!!"

The monsters roared deafeningly and flew toward Bayeri and Lucifer.

Faced with such a large number of enemies, Masaki, lacking experience, immediately considered retreating. However, Bayeri raised his hand and summoned the Golden Holy Sword, swinging his arm in a circle in front of him. As the sword flashed, dense ripples of energy surged like lightning, forming a huge vortex, which he was then violently thrown out of—

"Ultra Golden Wheel!"

The golden halo cleaved through a monster head-on, and then unstoppably sliced ​​through the entire monster army, severing both steel armor and tough hides without a doubt!

Masaki snapped out of his daze and immediately cursed himself. Seeing the monsters rushing towards him, he decisively gathered light blades in both hands and slashed left and right, repelling the approaching monsters one by one.

The two giants joined forces without fear, and engaged in a fierce battle in the universe!

The power of the Warriors of Light fluctuates with their beliefs, and given Masaki's current state, it would be no difficult for him and Ye Shou to break through the encirclement.

However, the real protagonist of this battle has only just begun—

Buzz~~~ Boom~~~

As Gulansfia moved slowly, it was instantly locked onto a rocky planet by its immense gravity—an instinct and a way to strengthen itself.

The surface of the rocky planet began to tremble violently, huge cracks appeared in its crust, mountains were forcibly torn apart, and the entire planet gradually collapsed under the gravitational pull, turning into countless fragments that were continuously sucked into the dark void inside Gransphia. So much matter left no trace...

After devouring the planet, Gulansfia's aura grew even stronger, its gravity seemed to be even stronger, and the arc light surged again, with several thicker bolts of lightning shooting out at the same time!

This attack didn't even spare the Sphia chimeras he had collected, sweeping them all away and "precisely" hitting Lucifer.

Entangled by the monster, Masaki was struck hard by lightning before he could dodge. Even though he managed to raise his defense, it was shattered in an instant, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string. The timer on his chest began to flash rapidly.
