Most of the top-level meetings were held online, because it was impossible for all the branch representatives and national representatives to be at TPC headquarters waiting for the meeting to start. However, what Leo didn't understand was that as soon as he entered the meeting, Director Sawai handed him the position of meeting moderator. He could see the surprised looks on the faces of the branch representatives even through the screen.
Leo quickly calmed down. "I received an urgent message today, a report on the Lightning Man. It's not very long, but it's very urgent."
Galactron's efficiency is beyond doubt. From data collection to the completion of the electronic report, it took less than ten seconds to send it to Leo. Because of the urgency of the situation, it was even written as briefly as possible.
"In other words, because of the frequent use of electromagnetic waves by humans, the Lightning Man could very well become violent and irritable, and attack the ground?"
"That's right. Although humans are strong enough to fight the Lightning Man, they are, after all, a species that also lives on Earth. They even helped fight Zolim before. Hopefully, things won't get too bad."
Magabasa's request for help was quite a challenge for Leo, and the representatives of each branch all looked worried. The representative of the Americas branch spoke first, "But the use of electromagnetic waves is inevitable with human development, and the problem of the Lightning Man is very thorny."
"If we really have to come up with an action plan, the only thing we can do is try to communicate with the Lightning People, designate a protected area for them, and find a way to prevent the electromagnetic waves there from being affected." This was said by the representative of the Asian branch.
“This plan should be feasible. According to the data, although the Lightning People’s population is large, it is not so large that we cannot accept it.” The representative of the European branch also approved the plan.
“Our population distribution in Australia is unique. Apart from a few cities in the east, the population in the interior is very small. I personally support the relocation of the Lightning People to Australia and its archipelago.”
The Australian branch representative was particularly proactive on this matter. Firstly, as he said, there are large areas of uninhabited land in Australia, and even Monster Island, the Monster Conservation Center, was converted from the Australian archipelago.
Secondly, during the Five Emperors incident, the ESCG assisted in the battle to protect Australia, and Leo later specifically transferred the Sky Base to assist in the defense, giving them priority access to the latest equipment. The Australian region has a high level of support for Leo.
After a brief analysis, Leo concluded that this was the only feasible plan at present. He couldn't suggest that humanity should stop using electromagnetic waves or move the Lightning Man to another planet.
"The only problem is that it might be difficult to cover such a large area with a shielding device for electromagnetic fields."
Although most of Australia is sparsely populated, electromagnetic waves are everywhere in the sky, so special electromagnetic shielding devices need to be manufactured.
“We can use Gobunny. We have been researching Gobunny recently and found that their materials have a strong ability to absorb electromagnetic waves. And we happen to have enough Gobunny.”
The more than 300,000 Goblin units that were left on Earth were originally intended to be converted into weapons. If they could be used for that purpose, that would be great.
The group discussed it for a while and finally came up with a plan, but there was one problem: who would communicate with the Lightning Man?
“I’ll do it.” Before Leo could speak, Director Sawai took the initiative to say, “The other party is another civilization living on Earth. We humans caused them harm first, so it would show more sincerity if I went.”
"No, no, this is too risky." The representatives from each branch couldn't help but shake their heads. It wouldn't do if anything happened to Director Sawai. His visit to the front line before had already made everyone quite nervous.
But what Director Sawai said wasn't without reason. Leo thought for a moment and said, "I'll accompany Director Sawai."
This is the safest solution. With Leo with them, the representatives of each branch relaxed a little. After all, Leo's abilities are undeniable, and... no one is more suitable to represent human civilization than the director.
The plan has been tentatively finalized, but Leo still needs to come up with a specific solution later, since he was the one who proposed it. Leo also plans to contact Lightning Man first to discuss this matter with him in order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.
"In addition, have all defense forces take off to escort the aircraft, reduce the number of flights today, and do not allow any flights to take off without the protection of the defense forces and any routes passing through the Lightning Man's lair."
Leo added this sentence, which, although somewhat unreasonable, is the only way to reduce conflict and casualties at the moment.
TPC operations are generally very efficient. From the end of the meeting, all orders are directly passed down to the bottom, ensuring that they are not misunderstood during the transmission process.
Having dealt with these matters for the time being, Leo got up and planned to go directly to the Lightning Man's side. When he went out, he saw Magabassa struggling to act as a fan to blow air on everyone. His arms had also turned back into wings, and he practically flew over when he saw Leo.
"Boss, how did things go?" Magabasa's eyes were filled with anticipation and tension.
"They offered a solution: have the Lightning People relocate and resolve their electromagnetic wave problem. Take me to them."
"!!!" Magabasa excitedly hugged Leo. "That's great, thank you, boss! I knew you'd have a way. Come on, I'll take you there right now!"
Magabasa didn't know how to thank Leo enough. He thought to himself that he was both bad and not smart, and it seemed like he could only be used as an air conditioner. But with Eleking able to absorb electricity from the cosmic magnetic field, the electricity meter in his house was spinning backwards.
But right now, the most important thing is to find the Lightning Man.
Chapter 112 Gazort the Self-Destructing Infantry
The Lightning Man issue definitely needs to be addressed as soon as possible. According to Magabasa, the Lightning Man has already begun to have the urge to attack human passenger planes, and it cannot be delayed any longer.
As Magabasa led Leo toward the Lightning People's lair, she introduced him to the Lightning People, a species that, according to her, existed since the beginning of an ancient civilization. Back then, they were called Creteans, as were the Rinnar race from the ocean.
"Actually, the sky is not under my jurisdiction. Strictly speaking, I am responsible for the wind element. Sister Renlong is of a higher level than me. She is a dragon of the earth veins and the representative of the light of the earth."
"The one who rules the sky was actually my original boss, but she was corrupted by darkness much earlier and is still sealed away."
Leo sat atop Magabasa, the wind howling like a knife, but it was nothing to Leonics in his awakened form. He was curious about Magabasa's original leader, "So who is truly in charge of the sky?"
"Hmm, the legendary dragon Hilarious. She not only rules over the skies above Earth, but also over the entire universe of the solar system."
"She's so nosy?" Leo was genuinely surprised; he had thought it was limited to the skies above Earth.
"Anyway, 30 million years ago, no one lived anywhere except Earth and Mars, so no one objected when she said it was all under her jurisdiction."
Magabasa casually remarked, "Hilary has a rather volatile temper and is very straightforward. When enemies came from space, she was the first to confront them and was also the first to be corrupted by darkness and sealed away."
Since the sky and the earth each have their own guardians, then the sea should have one too, right? Leo was about to ask when Magabasa said it himself.
"Well, then there's Sister Cordara. After Sister Hilary was corrupted, she came next because she controls the ocean currents, and the ocean is where darkness takes root the deepest."
"So, the ones who sealed away Hillary and Cordara were Gaia and Agul, I mean the two Ultramen, the Light of the Earth and the Light of the Ocean?"
Leo used to think there would be an Ultraman with the light of the sky, but Renlong said there wouldn't be, because the Earth is strictly composed of land and ocean, and the light of the sky can only give birth to Hilarious, not enough to give birth to another Ultraman.
"No, that's not it. The Light of the Earth and the Light of the Ocean sealed the Dark Seghg. Unfortunately, I only know about this one great seal. The Dark Maga Serpent should also be one, but I was already sealed away at the time, so I don't know where that guy was thrown."
Dark Maga-Orochi and Dark Segu-Gou both appear to have become even more powerful monsters after absorbing the ultimate darkness. Ren-Long cannot mention them to Leo, but Maga-Basa can. This girl was sealed away when the Dark War had just begun.
Are Segakure and Maga Orochi very strong?
"They're incredibly strong. You definitely couldn't beat any of them, even if you were the current boss."
Despite his deep respect and admiration for Leo, Magabasa was precisely why he wouldn't lie to him to put his mind at ease. With Leo's current strength, even all the monsters under his command combined would be no match for any one of them.
"However, you're growing very fast, boss. Big sister said you've only mastered your own power for half a month, and you'll definitely be able to defeat them in the future. But... well, I'm not so good. I'm not strong enough or smart enough."
Magabasa isn't actually weak, but compared to the other monsters under Leo's command, she's definitely not up to par.
"It's alright. I think you look pretty handsome right now, or you could say good-looking. Anyway, you're just my type."
Magabasa could tell whether Leo truly thought that way or was simply trying to comfort him; it was naturally the former. By human standards of beauty, Magabasa was incredibly beautiful. She had only been around for a short time, yet her popularity on the monster website had already surpassed that of Dimaga, and she was especially popular among young people.
Sitting on Magabasa's head like this is pretty cool, to be honest. Leo can tell that Magabasa is quite happy too. Well, it's just that Dimaga and Zetton are a little unhappy.
“I’m pretty handsome too.” Dimaga squatted in the corner drawing circles, while Zetton considered the possibility of tying Leo to the basement. Eleking was already considering some things that couldn’t be said.
Galactron, on the other hand, didn't care at all, because Leo had praised her like that a long time ago, and even now, thinking about it, she still felt somewhat proud.
"Alright, alright, everyone's handsome, I like them all." How could Leo not like his comrades who had fought alongside him all this time? He wouldn't show favoritism.
Maga Orochi and Segaku... It seems my power is still not strong enough. I need more, stronger power.
"Boss, we're almost there." Magabasa's words made Leo look up and see a dark cloud in the sky ahead, with flashes of lightning.
“You can just call me Leo from now on. To be honest, you’re much older than me.” Leo remembered that Dimaga was a little unhappy when Magabassa called him “boss” before. The title of “boss” was reserved for Dimaga.
“If we don’t count the time I was sealed, I am indeed much older than you. Alright, Leo, um, Leo!”
Magabasa's mood instantly improved, and he rushed into the cloud with Leo. Leo felt his vision suddenly plunge into darkness, and then suddenly brighten again. His body became as light as a feather, and he could hear the faint sound of wind chimes.
Whether it was due to an enhancement in his Reonic aspect or the power granted by the Dragon's Orb, Leo discovered that he could actually understand this language.
"Friend, friend, you're a friend!"
Leo opened his eyes and found himself in a bright ocean, surrounded by countless cute little creatures, some of them like fish. Their voices were like those of children, noisy and disruptive, and Leo didn't know how to quiet them down.
"Alright, alright, Sky Clan, quiet down. Leo is here to help you solve this problem. Where is the leader of your lair?"
Magabasa suppressed the noise of Creteus, also known as the Lightning Man, and she even raised her head slightly so that the Lightning Man could see Leo.
Soon, a larger lightning creature floated up to Leo and flapped its wings with joy.
“Friends, hello. We, the Crete, are struggling to survive. The ground is noisy, and our people are out of control.”
The Lightning People do not communicate with each other through language. They can communicate telepathically even across great distances. The language they speak is an ancient language, which they learned many years ago and have now largely forgotten.
“I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused you,” Leo said, with Magabasa acting as translator to relay the message. “The humans on Earth are aware of your situation, and they’ve made a suggestion. I wonder if you would be willing to move to Australia.”
"This is the best solution for now. They will also try their best to help you avoid interference from electromagnetic waves. Afterwards, someone from the human side will come to talk to you in detail, is that alright?"
Leo wasn't sure if Magabassa's translation was correct. Galactron was trying to recreate this ancient language and would translate it specifically for Leo later. At the same time, she also analyzed the strange species, the Lightning People.
According to Galactron's analysis, the Lightning People are a very peculiar species. They are difficult to kill and have a strong ability to adapt to the environment, but electromagnetic waves are simply harmful to them.
It's like construction noise combined with the sound of fingernails scratching glass, constantly nagging at people's ears, and the surrounding air is full of industrial fumes. It would be strange if they could endure it without going crazy.
“They agreed!” Magabassa said happily, but Leo was a little uneasy. “Do they even know where Australia is?”
“I know, they’ve lived there for 30 million years. Sister Kodara’s seal is also there. They said that since my seal is gone, it’s good to go back there and stay there, guarding Sister Kodara’s seal.”
Leo hadn't expected that Australia was the home of the Lightning Man and that there was such a connection. But that was fine; he was worried that the Lightning Man might be resistant. However, more specific details would definitely have to wait for Director Sawai to come and discuss them in person.
"Oh right, didn't they turn into Gazorts and fight alongside us before? One of the Gazorts volunteered to test the enemy's strength and sacrificed itself. Please allow me to express my gratitude and respect."
"You don't need to worry about that, Leo. After Gazot, the fusion of the Lightning Men, was killed, they just scattered. There were actually no casualties."
Well, this is a bit awkward. Leo scratched his head, while Magabasa seemed to have thought of something and communicated with the Lightning Man again.
"What are you guys talking about?" Leo patted Magabasa's head. "Sister Renlong said that you sacrificed a lot of people to protect that place, so I asked if they could live there and help you out occasionally."
Wow, this is a perspective I've never considered before. Leo suddenly realized that Magabasa is quite clever. The Lightning Men also agreed very readily. The reason they didn't help before was mainly because they didn't understand humans and were bothered by human electromagnetic waves, so they really disliked humans.
However, they gradually realized that humans were their allies, especially recently with so many terrible enemies and humans fighting against them. They only made their first appearance recently because of the involvement of Magabassa's seal.
"So, does that mean Australia's defense capabilities might actually become very strong in the future?"
"That's not quite right. Gazot's combat strength isn't very strong, only a bit stronger than Melba. But boss, you can try teaching them some combat skills or something."
"Combat techniques... what are their characteristics?"
Leo scratched his head. Combat skills were really a challenge for him. He didn't know much, but he had gained some experience with Maga bombs after transforming into Maga Flame Demon so many times. After all, he had been bombed himself and had also bombed others.
"Yes, they are very hard to kill. Neither physical nor energy methods can kill them. In fact, when they attacked Seggu in the past, they used self-destruct attacks. Anyway, their bodies would quickly reassemble after decomposing."
"Then let's teach them Ultra Bomb!" Leo clapped his hands, his eyes lighting up instantly. These were simply a group of natural-born talents who could learn Ultra Bomb!
Upon hearing this, Renlong, who was far away at the shrine, couldn't help but spit out his tea. No, this is possible? No, it seems like it really is!
And so, the initial plan for the Lightning Man's migration was quickly finalized. At the same time, Leo also taught the Lightning Man some key points of the Ultra Bomb, such as how to gather all the energy in his body and how to ensure the explosive power. Even if the Lightning Man couldn't learn the original, it wouldn't be a problem for him to figure out something similar on his own, at most the power would be a little smaller.
In order to cooperate with the plan, Director Sawai personally appealed to the world to temporarily reduce the use of electromagnetic waves. Of course, it is only a reduction, not a complete elimination. Although many people do not care about the existence of the Lightning Man and think it has nothing to do with them, many more people are consciously cooperating with the work of TPC.
This is a way of showing sincerity to the Lightning Man, even if it's only for a few hours or minutes, it's still an expression of goodwill.
Having resolved the security issue, Leo quickly returned to the base, changed back into his team uniform, and joined Director Sawai and several renowned scholars on a research vessel to travel to the Lightning Man's lair, where Director Sawai and the Lightning Man would have a personal meeting.
It's worth mentioning that this operation also included Horii and his mentor, Dr. Mizuno. They were overjoyed when they first met Lightning Man, and even gave him a fright.
Leo always thought that Director Sawai was an incredible person. It was as if he could really understand the conversations of the Lightning Man. Horii's language translator would occasionally make mistakes, resulting in incorrect meanings of words, but Director Sawai could always judge what the Lightning Man wanted to express.
Director Sawai is an incredible person. The fact that he can unite the world together is legendary in itself. Leo could feel that this old man maintained complete respect and equal goodwill when facing an unknown being like the Lightning Man. He did not have any prejudice because of the other party's appearance. Only a person like him could build an organization like TPC.
The first formal contact between humans and the Lightning People was so simple and harmonious that people in later generations always find it incredible when they talk about it.
With the peace talks concluded, all the Lightning People's lairs on Earth migrated towards Australia, and most people around the world suspended their use of electromagnetic waves. This demonstrated humanity's sincerity to the Lightning People, who were willing to coexist with humans until the day when humanity could completely solve the problem of electromagnetic waves.
"Friends! Happy! Friends! Great!" The lightning people joyfully surrounded everyone, floating up and down as if dancing. Leo and Director Sawai were especially popular, making Dr. Mizuno very envious.
Half an hour later, on the grasslands of the Australian branch, a Garula emerged from the earth, preparing to head to the nearest city to begin its destruction, when it was suddenly struck by a lightning bolt flying from the sky.
This attack had no effect on Garula. It just stared in confusion at Gazort flying towards it from the sky. Just as it was about to retaliate, it saw Gazort's speed increasing and its body crackling with electricity, eventually bursting into flames.
A sense of foreboding arose in Garula's heart, and it hurriedly dug a hole to escape, but Gazot was faster and crashed directly into Garula.
A violent explosion resounded across the entire grassland in an instant. Amidst the enormous flames, countless rays of light shot towards the sky, which upon closer inspection turned out to be many small lightning bolts.
The power of this explosion was far less than that of an Ultra Bomb, but it was enough to severely injure Garula. Garula, covered in wounds, was furious and about to vent its anger when it looked up and saw another Gazort charging towards it.
Thus, to the astonishment of the Australian branch defense force and all the high-ranking personnel, this Garula died less than thirty seconds after it appeared, due to the self-destruction of the two Gazotes. The Lightning Man, who had merged into Gazotes, was weaker, but otherwise unharmed.
From today onwards, the Australian branch's defense capabilities might even surpass those of TPC headquarters.
Chapter 113 Galactron is extremely worried about this family.
Leo really didn't expect that not only could these lightning people learn from his teaching, but they were also quite proficient in using it, even more so than Leo himself.
According to Demaga, the power of Gazort, formed by the fusion of Inazuma and Gazort, was not high to begin with. During the Dark War 30 million years ago, all the monsters on Earth participated in the battle. In order to deal with the large number of Melba and the monster bird Zoga, Inazuma adopted the strategy of self-destruction.
One counterintuitive thing is that although Gazort, the fusion of Lightning Man and Gazort, will die, Lightning Man, the fusion of Gazort and Gazort, will not die. During the Dark War, Lightning Man managed to hold off the army of Melba and Zoga by using this suicidal self-destruction.
Therefore, they were already very familiar with self-destruction, and Leo also taught them some experience with Ultra Bombs, which directly iterated the old tactics to new values.
"It feels like monsters in Australia won't have a good time from now on."
Leo couldn't help but shake his head. Gazot's fighting style was truly terrifying. Last time, he probably judged that this move wouldn't be effective against Zolim, otherwise Zolim would have experienced what it meant to be fearless in the face of death.
