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

Chapter 5 The Hero Who Arrived Late

If they could, the Mefilas aliens would really like to turn around and leave.

He had done his research before coming and had some understanding of these things from other universes, so he was well aware of how dangerous the things locked in these glass cases were.

Aside from the Emperor's Armor and that stone statue fragment whose nature he didn't know, any one of the other items could cause serious trouble for the Land of Light and trigger a cosmic crisis!

However, he, who prides himself on being a gentleman, would never do something so cowardly.

Even when leaving the stage, one must do so with dignity.

“Extreme? Ha… It’s all worth it so that His Majesty can once again rule the universe! We will not be like your brother, using the guise of avenging you to seize His Majesty’s inheritance!”

The dimensional demon clenched his fists, his tone filled with resentment and anger towards the Mefilas aliens.

However, the Mefilas aliens didn't take it seriously and instead asked sarcastically, "But are you really doing this for the Emperor?"

"Aren't these things from other universes something you wanted to use to restrain the Emperor's power and make him completely under your control?"

"Is the addition of the human variable because you think that by combining the power of darkness with humanity, you can achieve the miracle of Ultraman being born from humanity?"

"Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, you also used the mechanical Ultra Warrior technology of the Samero aliens on this corpse of a warrior from the Land of Light, didn't you? I'm afraid the resurrected emperor is just a weapon that uses dark power..."

"Shut up!"

Enraged to the extreme, the dimensional demon raised his hand and attacked the Mefilas alien.

He can accept insults and abuse from others, but he will never accept any questioning of his loyalty.

The Mefilas aliens easily deflected the attack.

Seeing the dimensional demon's furious expression, he realized he had been judging others by his own standards; these guys were truly single-mindedly 'loyal' to the Aliens Empera!

"It seems I underestimated you..."

The dimensional demon realized his lapse in composure and became wary of a possible attack from the Mefilas aliens.

"Mefilas, are you going to stop us?"

"Stop? No, no... I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of monster you'll create."

The Mefilas alien let out a calm laugh.

"You—! Hmph... When His Majesty leads us to once again let darkness dominate this universe and even other dimensional universes, you'd better not regret it!"

"Then let's wait and see, but before that, you'd better get past the Ultra Brothers first! Hahahaha..."

Taking this opportunity, the Mefilas alien vanished in a wisp of black mist, and the computer panel inside the modified room sounded an alarm, displaying several high-energy reactions rapidly approaching the asteroid belt.

It was clearly Zoffy and the other Ultra Brothers who received Ultra's signature.

"You'll regret this, Mefilas!"

The Dimensional Demon clenched his fist and roared, then used his telekinesis to lock Chen Lin to the control panel and activated the defense system in the asteroid belt. Storage-like devices emerged from the caves outside the modification plant, from which various modified dark mechanical monsters and dark mechanical Ultra Brothers emerged.

Having completed these two steps, the dimensional demon raised its head to look at the fragments of dark armor floating in the storage jar, and murmured affectionately:

"Your Majesty, I will surely resurrect you, granting you even greater power! Then I will destroy the Kingdom of Light and all rebellious civilizations! And bring the entire universe under your dark dominion!"

He then went to the control panel, but when he opened the monitor, he did not see Zoffy, the eldest of the Ultra Brothers, but a red giant wielding a head-mounted boomerang and using the Emerium Beam to sweep across the asteroid belt.

It's Ultraseven!
Before he could even wonder why Zoffy hadn't arrived first, Seven in the video seemed to sense something and looked at the camera. The sudden appearance of his 'horrifyingly large head' made the Dimensional Demon quickly shut down the camera.

My God! That's terrifying!
"Ultraman Seven! How could he have become so terrifying..."

There was no time to lose; he had to begin reviving His Majesty the Emperor immediately!
The dimensional demon operated on the computer panel, opening the pipe connecting the milky-white cosmic sphere and the light virus, and injecting both into the energy core in the giant's chest.

Although the Light Virus and the Sphia have similar properties, it did not merge after entering the core and receiving energy replenishment. Instead, it began to fight head-on for ownership of the body!

Originally, it had the appearance of a giant of light, but in an instant, it was covered by various milky white pustules and mutated flesh. Even the mechanical devices of the Salome aliens were corroded and turned into biological forms by these two things.

However, Sphia alone was no match for the Light Virus. So, just as the Light Virus was about to gain the upper hand, the Dimensional Demon injected the writhing flesh into it. The entry of a more aggressive third party forced the Light Virus and Sphia to unite.

Although the giant's appearance had been completely distorted into something indescribable, the test version of the dimensional core provided by the Yapool in his chest remained unaffected.

This shows that the giant's body did not collapse as a result.

"Your Majesty... rule them with your darkness!"

As he spoke, the dimensional demon injected a fragment of dark armor into its core. The three forces that had been fighting to the point of exhaustion within the dimensional core were instantly suppressed by this sudden surge of darkness. The incomparably domineering power forcibly controlled the Light Virus, the Sphia, and even the alien beast cells!
The giant's appearance returned to normal, but its silver body turned black, retaining only a few red lines. The dimensional core on its chest shone with a dark purple light, and its eyes changed from dark white to pitch black. Its appearance also became somewhat similar to that of the Alien Empera.

Although the open chest reveals the mechanical Ultraman device originating from the Salome aliens, it is nothing more than a mechanical object.

"His Majesty……"

The dimensional demon trembled as he reached out to the dark mechanical giant.

Rumble, rumble, rumble—!
The vibrations from the modification facility disrupted the dimensional demon's good mood.

Upon looking at the screen, he discovered that the Ultra Brothers had already reached the cave outside the modification plant and were fighting against the Dark Mechanical Monsters and Dark Mechanical Ultra Brothers that he had released.

"Woo..."

At this moment, Chen Lin was also slowly awakened by the vibrations inside the modification facility. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was tied up in a container, next to a dark mechanical giant that looked very evil.

And in front of the control panel below was the alien he had met on the outskirts of Kumamoto City!

"It's you!"

Chen Lin's eyes widened, and he scanned the room, immediately recognizing these incredible gadgets.

"Fuck..."

He had no other words to describe the hellish painting before him except those two.

"Hehehe... You're awake, human."

The dimensional demon grinned sinisterly.

He couldn't be happier now. As long as he integrates the mysterious light from this human and the stone statue into the dimensional core, and then lets His Majesty's power control them, he can immediately slap the faces of the Mefilas aliens.

"What...what are you going to do to me...?"

Chen Lin, clutching the Ultra Star tightly, asked in a trembling voice.

"That would certainly be to become His Majesty the Emperor's new power!"

His Majesty?

Is it Ampera or Beria?
The moment this question popped into Chen Lin's mind, the Dimensional Demon pressed the switch, and the next moment, energy surging from the Dimensional Core poured down from Chen Lin's head!

The same is true for the stone statue fragments at the other end.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

Chen Lin immediately roared in anguish.

It felt as if my body was being cut by countless thin ropes.

No! It's not a feeling.

His physical body did indeed collapse as if cut by countless thin ropes, turning into faint light particles that were sent into the dimensional core through the pipes.

Help me... Help me...

Ultraman...

Tiga...

With nearly half of his body gone, Chen Lin slightly opened his eyes. In a daze, he saw the Ultra Star floating in front of him, its shining light struggling to protect his spirit.

That's Zoffy's power.

"help me……"

At this moment, Zoffy's words when he handed the Ultra Star to Chen Lin echoed in his mind: "If you are in danger, it will protect you, and I will also sense your location."

"Zoffy—!!!!"

M87 beam!
Just as Chen Lin and the stone statue fragments completely turned into light and disappeared, a beam of light powerful enough to destroy the asteroid belt finally pierced through the gate of the terraforming facility.

But what he saw was the dull, lifeless Ultra Star lying at the bottom of an empty container, the faint sound of which was so jarring.

Zoffy, he's late.
