Ultraman's opening scene: lifting up Kuroshio Island

At the same time, a silver light shone in her eyes.

Chapter 387 Why are all the people here so stupid?

"I am... the goddess of victory!"

Hearing Niki's confident voice and seeing the silver light shining in her eyes, Minghui's resolve wavered slightly.

However, he still had some hesitation. Although he knew that leaving Niki here for the time being would most likely not cause any problems, he was still a little worried.

Seeing the expression on Minghui's face, Niki's eyebrows shot up, and her face showed displeasure.

She opened her mouth as if to say something.

But Minghui stopped her first. He sighed and conceded:

"Alright, alright, don't say anything, I'll do as you say."

A smile returned to Niki's face. She stepped forward and gave Minghui a sweet kiss.

"However, even if I leave, you'll still need someone to help you."

Minghui shook his head helplessly and said:

"Let Bella stay with you."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, creating a spatial rift beside him.

"Roar!"

The next moment, a soft roar rang out, and Bella's enormous body leaped out from the spatial rift.

It landed beside the two of them, its eyes darting around curiously as it looked at everything around it.

As Niki's pet and bodyguard, it naturally came along too, but usually Minghui keeps it in his domain space.

Now is the perfect time for it to come in handy.

To be honest, Minghui had originally planned to bring Ron along, but Ron had been frequently falling into a deep sleep lately, just like when they set off, so Minghui didn't wake him up.

According to Minghui's estimation, the reason why Ron is going into hibernation so frequently is because his strength has increased again and he is in the adaptation phase.

Perhaps when they return this time, that guy's strength will undergo a transformation.

"Bella, protect your master well, and make sure nothing happens to her."

Minghui raised his hand and rubbed Bella's huge bear head, whispering some instructions.

"Roar!"

Bella let out a low growl from her throat, and waved her sharp claws, indicating that everything was under her control.

"Alright, go ahead, you won't be able to catch up in a bit."

Niki looked up at the sky, but the departing fighter jet had long since disappeared without a trace.

"Ah."

Minghui nodded, and then after thinking for a moment, he told Niki all the information he knew.

After he finished doing all this, he floated up and said one last thing:

"Be careful, I'll be back soon."

"Go ahead and don't worry about me."

Niki nodded gently, waved her hand, and watched as Minghui's figure transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.

She stood silently for a while, then patted Bella beside her and walked towards Queen Amaterasu's palace.

"Let's go. That little girl is all alone now. If no one helps her, she'll start crying!"

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

"Captain... he would never betray the Queen, would he?"

In the fighter jet heading into space, Tachibana, a member of the Queen's Royal Guard, sat in the co-pilot's seat. Although she looked up and gazed ahead, her eyes were somewhat unfocused.

The series of events that happened today left her in a state of utter confusion. In the past, they had their captain as their pillar of support, but now even the captain had defected. This left her enveloped in a tremendous sense of unease, almost suffocating her.

However, she simply couldn't believe that the captain, who was so loyal to the Queen, would betray her.

"No, we must trust our captain."

Beside her, Yu Yan was working at the control panel, searching for signs of Shinra's escape ship as she spoke:

"Compared to the absurd idea of ​​the captain defecting, I think he was controlled by the puppet poison."

The so-called Puppet Poison is a combat tactic employed by the cosmic demon Baalzeb.

It can inject a toxin from its own body into the enemy's body, thereby achieving complete control over the enemy.

As members of a planet that possesses the Tree of Life that gave birth to the God of War and the Quinn, they may not know about other things in the universe, but they do know about monsters like Baalzeb.

"Hmm...it could also be a retaliation by the General."

Tachibana nodded in agreement with Miyuki's guess, and then she shared her own thoughts:

"I always felt there was something off about the way that old guy looked at the captain!"

Her guess was close to the truth, but not entirely correct.

After the assassination attempt ended tonight, Lai Ying quickly brought out Sen Luo, whom he had already arrested, accusing him of murdering the queen while swiftly convicting him and sending him to the prison planet.

Then, using the excuse that Shinra had escaped midway, they sent the two of them out to pursue her, thus diverting them away from Queen Amaterasu.

In this way, there will be no one around Queen Amaterasu who can influence her, and Raiyo can persuade her to transform into a war goddess to fight the enemy.

To be honest, although Lai Ying's methods in this incident were not very honorable, his idea was not wrong.

To prevent enemy attacks, one must possess strong military power.

However, he underestimated his enemy and overestimated his own queen.

"Be careful!"

Hearing Tachibana's words, Mikoto frowned and reprimanded her, saying:

“We cannot suspect the ministers of the state without reason. The most urgent task is to find the captain’s whereabouts. Then everything will be clear.”

"Okay, got it!"

Tachibana timidly shrank her neck and stuck out her tongue.

"We've found the captain's whereabouts!"

At this moment, Yu Yan's gaze sharpened. Looking at the coordinates displayed on the monitor in front of her, she said in a deep voice:

"The captain's spaceship...is on the planet Yin!"

"Judging from this, the captain really has been controlled by the puppet poison!"

Upon hearing this, Tachibana perked up.

"Yes, very likely."

Yu Yan nodded cautiously.

Then, she reached out and manipulated the control panel, saying:

"Prepare for the jump, let's go bring the captain back!"

But just then, before she could finish her operation, a voice suddenly rang out behind them:

"Hey, you two young ladies, could you give me a ride?"

The voice came out very abruptly, especially since there were only the two of them on the entire spaceship; it was like a thunderbolt hitting their hearts.

Both of them had their pupils shrink and their bodies trembled.

The next moment, the two turned around abruptly, and Tachibana even pulled a gun from his waist and pointed it forward:

"who?"

As soon as they turned around, they saw a man who had appeared in the cabin at some point, leaning against the cabin door and looking at them.

"who are you?"

How did you get onto our spaceship?

Upon seeing that it was a human, the two breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still cautiously asked.

"Please don't worry, I mean no harm."

It was Minghui who had arrived. He waved to the two of them, a faint smile on his face, and said:

"I am a traveler on a long journey, but I am a little tired. I think you are heading in the same direction as me, so I came up to hitch a ride."

The main focus this time is on Kai's side. He doesn't plan to get too involved. He just wants to observe from the sidelines as a traveler and make sure things don't go too far.

"Oh, I see. If our itineraries align, it's no problem to give you a ride."

Upon hearing Minghui's explanation, Yuyan and Tachibana exchanged a glance, then put away their weapons and believed Minghui's words.

"Oh... well, thank you!"

This caught Minghui off guard. All the answers he had prepared to address the two of their potential questions were stuck in his throat, making him feel quite uncomfortable.

He was confident he could fool the two of them, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

No way, you two actually believed that? You're on a mission, not a vacation!

Minghui sighed inwardly.

He finally understood: everyone here was a bit silly, well... kind of adorably silly.

"We're going to the planet Yin, where are you going?"

Tachibana asked Akira.

"Oh, you're going to a planet called Yin? Then just put me on a nearby habitable planet."

Minghui smiled and said something, then suddenly changed the subject, saying:

"However, I've heard that many terrible demons have recently appeared on that planet. What are you two young girls going there for? Aren't you afraid of encountering danger?"

"We have reasons to go, even if it's dangerous, we have to go."
