Across countless worlds: Yearning to become a giant of light.

Chapter 19 The Rampaging Dark Power

"My name is Zero! Let me make it clear beforehand, this is not a personal grudge."

With that, Zero leaped up and landed easily on the arena platform.

Chen Lin followed closely behind and jumped up.

boom--!
Chen Lin's excessive weight caused the platform to tremble upon his landing.

"Wow……"

Zero quickly steadied himself and felt a little embarrassed.

The other person looks only a little taller than me, and their physique is not that of a muscular giant like Senior Gaolian, so how could their weight be so exaggerated?
No wonder he was able to easily catch his flying kick just now.

“My name is Chen…Chaos. Even if it’s not a personal grudge, don’t you think it’s going too far to suddenly attack an unsuspecting passerby?”

Chen Lin had intended to give his real name, but seeing Zero's condition, he lost the mood and gave his new name instead.

As for Chen Lin's moral accusations, the ever-rebellious Cyro pretended not to hear them.

"Hmph! Chaos, that sounds like the name of a powerful figure!"

Seeing this, Chen Lin continued to ask:

"Since you're going to challenge the strong, why don't you challenge the Ultra Brothers? As their instructors, they wouldn't refuse your challenge!"

"I'm not stupid. Those old guys are far too strong for me to challenge, unless I have a much stronger force..."

Sai Luo rolled his eyes at Chen Lin.

Although he was always arrogant about his strength, in terms of combat experience, going up against the Ultra Brothers, who were veterans of countless battles (and even died before), would be pure torture!
However, Chen Lin was more concerned about his last sentence.

Is this the beginning?

"Tch! Enough with the chit-chat, let's fight... drink up!"

After saying that, Zero charged towards Chen Lin.

"So fast! That flying kick was definitely a probing attack."

Seeing this, Chen Lin quickly assumed a fighting stance and instinctively defended against Zero's attack. As soon as they clashed, he felt that the power of Zero's attack this time far exceeded that of the previous flying kick.

Although Chen Lin managed to defend against the subsequent attacks, it was truly too much to ask of him to face a prodigy like Zero (Sai ​​Aotian) in his first real-life battle.

The opponent's fierce attacks in close combat were even a bit overwhelming for a Frankenstein's monster like Chen Lin.

"Okay, great!"

"That guy can actually fight Zero to a standstill!"

"This is the first time I've ever seen anyone last so long against Zero."

"Even their defense is better than ours..."

"He's just a little too handsome!"

"I think so."

The other Ultraman fans below also started commenting.

However, no one thought Chen Lin could beat Zero, especially Ultraman, who had failed countless times in his challenges against Zero, who shifted the topic to Chen Lin's somewhat exaggerated appearance.

Soon, Chen Lin's defense showed a weakness.

"You've probably been spending too much time in the training room, Chaos. Fighting isn't just about posing like a teacher!"

Zero had clearly figured out Chen Lin's defensive tactics.

You can see the shadows of those old guys (instructors) in it, but there are too many and too varied elements, and too little of Chen Lin's own.

Just as the mechanical Ultra Warriors possess the same power as the Ultra Brothers, the Ultra Warriors' combat data allows them to unleash combat power equivalent to their original forms.

But if a mechanical Ultra Warrior were to actually fight its original counterpart, it would only be defeated by the original in a few moves.

"Ugh...!"

Chen Lin was caught off guard by Zero's momentary opening and punched so hard that sparks flew from his chest, causing him to stagger back a few steps.

But when he looked up to defend against the next attack, he found that Zero was standing still and not continuing his attack.

"Ouch...it hurts so much...his body is so hard!"

Zero could only hide his trembling fists and strike a cool pose to cover them up.

"No, it's the armor! I thought it was just decoration... I didn't expect it to be so tough."

Zero had encountered people from the Land of Light who were born with armor before, but this was the first time he had encountered someone with such high strength. It seemed he would have to attack parts of the body not covered by armor. "Huff... huff..."

As for how Chen Lin felt after being punched,

There are some, but not many.

It felt like being hit hard by an inflatable hammer.

However, perhaps due to the prolonged battle, a certain card in the database was triggered, and Chen Lin suddenly felt something about to burst out from inside the dimensional core.

Are they Aliens from the planet Emperor?
Was it because of his battle with the warriors of the Land of Light that his power went out of control?

No, not good!

Consciousness needs to...

"What happened……"

At this moment, Seven, who came to inspect the arena in place of Taro as an instructor, discovered the commotion inside. Upon entering, he witnessed a scene that almost made his heart stop.

Facing Chen Lin, who was emanating dark power, Zero showed no fear whatsoever, seemingly intending to wait for him to recover before continuing the fight.

"Zero? What is he doing!"

Chen Lin's body hadn't even had its final adjustments done by Hikari yet!
Clearly, Zero deliberately took advantage of the gap during the instructors' rotation to challenge Chen Lin.

And the worst part isn't even Zero; there are so many ordinary Ultras watching inside the arena, and a single mishap could cause a large number of injuries!

"Instructor Seven?"

At this moment, the casual spectators in the stands also noticed Seven.

"Order everyone present to evacuate immediately! Quickly!"

Seven had no time to explain; he left those words behind and flew toward the platform.

"Yes!"

Although they didn't understand what was happening, they still did as instructed and ordered the others in the arena to be evacuated immediately.

"old man……"

Zero curled his lip when he saw Seven flying over.

"Zero, get out of here!"

Seven commanded in a serious tone.

"Hmph... Mind your own business, you old fool!"

At this moment, Zero's rebellious spirit was stirred upon seeing Seven. He snorted coldly and continued his attack on Chen Lin, who remained stationary.

"G!"

clatter--!
However, Chen Lin easily deflected his attack.

"what?"

Zero looked stunned.

He then felt a sharp pain in his fist, which was slowly squeezed and twisted to the side, while dark power releasing red lightning condensed in Chen Lin's hand.

Rezolim Ray!

"Ughh ...

Zero was blasted off the platform.

"G!"

In that instant, faced with the choice between stopping Chen Lin and saving Zero, the image of the future Seven that Chen Lin had shown him flashed through his mind, and he chose to save Zero from the Rezolim Ray!
"Zero, are you alright?"

Seven, after safely placing Zero on the ground, asked a worried question.

"I...I'm alright...?"

Zero seemed somewhat at a loss.

"Ah."

At this moment, Seven realized that he had shown some genuine emotion.

He quickly composed himself, stood up, and flew towards the platform to engage in battle with Chen Lin, who had transformed back into a dark mechanical giant.
