Working as a consultant in the Ultra Universe

"Advisor, Captain, look!"

Shortly after Ito Junkichi and the others left, Shirono Emi's voice suddenly came from the communications station.

However, it wasn't a cry of alarm when encountering an emergency, but rather a gossipy sound when something interesting was discovered.

Gu Chen, Daiyama Itsuki, and the others looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hoshino Isamu standing on the open ground outside the ground base, making some kind of physical exercise movements with a very large range of motion in the surveillance footage.

On the other side, Balu stared intently at Hoshino Isamu, clumsily mimicking his movements, looking utterly adorable.

Seeing this scene, Emi Shirono's girlish heart almost burst.

She couldn't help but stand up from the communicator and turn to look at Gu Chen and Daishan Yishu.

Although she didn't say anything, the meaning she wanted to convey was already clear in her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Dr. Shirono's expression immediately darkened, and he called out softly, "Emi!"

Shirono Emi pouted, looking quite disappointed.

But then, Gu Chen patted Dr. Shirono on the shoulder and said, "Alright, Dr. Shirono, there's no need to be so harsh on the Shirono team."

Then, Gu Chen looked at Shirono Emi and said, "Go if you want to."

Upon hearing this, Emi Shirono's face immediately lit up with a bright smile, and she sweetly exclaimed, "Thank you, advisor!"

After saying that, Shirono Emi practically skipped and jumped out of the operations room and headed straight for the ground base.

Watching his daughter's departing figure, Dr. Shirono sighed softly, "Sigh, she's such a grown-up, yet she's so unsteady."

When everyone heard this, they all smiled but said nothing.

The current UGM is not like the MAC of yesteryear. The team basically only has one female member, Shirono Emi. The other female members are mostly instructors at the girls' training school and rarely come to the war room.

Therefore, unsurprisingly, Shirono Emi became the most favored member of UGM.

Not to mention the teammates who are around the same age as Shirono Emi; even if they don't say it, they all have some feelings for Shirono Emi in their hearts.

Immediately, the sound of casual conversation continued in the operations room, and everyone saw Hoshino Isamu and Shirono Emi playing around with Pazu on the ground base through the monitor.

Time passed quickly, and soon, Junkichi Ito's voice came through the broadcast: "Advisor, Captain, the spacecraft Mami has broken through Earth's atmosphere and is searching for the Baloo Group."

Nishida Jiro temporarily acted as a communicator, operating the communication console for a moment before transferring Ito Junkichi's communication to the big screen.

Then, Kazuki Oyama nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. Report any discoveries immediately."

Junkichi Ito nodded and replied, "Understood!"

As time went on, Ito Junkichi and his team soon made a discovery.

"Vice Captain Ito, look over there!"

Ueno Takashi suddenly exclaimed and pointed to a spot outside the porthole.

Junkichi Ito immediately looked in the direction Takashi Ueno pointed and discovered that the corpse of a monster was floating quietly in space.

Upon seeing this, Ito Junkichi immediately said, "Zoom in on the image!"

Upon hearing this, Hiroshi Tajima immediately began operating the control panel.

Meanwhile, everyone in the UGM operations room also turned their attention to the big screen.

Soon, the corpse of a migratory bird monster was clearly presented to the UGM members.

Dr. Shirono couldn't help but push up his glasses and said, "Judging from the state of the corpse, I think Balu could only have been bitten to death."

Upon hearing this, Bai Tuchun frowned and guessed, "Could it be cannibalism?"

Dr. Shirono immediately denied it: "No, that's impossible. Pazu is a very docile monster."

Shirato Jun glanced at the compressed surveillance footage in the lower right corner of the large screen, looked at the adorable monster Balu, and nodded in agreement.

It must be said that Balu is indeed the most docile monster he has ever seen since he became a member of the Earth Defense Force.

Looking at the image on the big screen, Kazuki Oyama stroked his chin and said, "So, something else killed Pazu?"

Dr. Shirono speculated, "It might be Zakira."

Aoshima Ichiro was taken aback: "Zakira?"

Dr. Shirono nodded, then explained, "In nature, there are natural enemies."

"For example, the natural enemies of wild rats are snakes and foxes, and ladybugs eat aphids."

“In this way, no organism will grow to extreme levels.”

Listening to Dr. Shirono's explanation, Junkichi Itō continued, "So, Balu's natural enemy is this Zakira?"

Upon hearing this, Kazuki Oyama immediately said, "Ito, continue the investigation."

Junkichi Ito immediately replied, "Understood."

Immediately, the images on the large screen began to move, and the spacecraft Mami began to follow the monster's movement trajectory observed by the observatory.

In no time, the monster radar onboard the spaceship Mami began to react.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of the flying bird monsters Balu appeared in the sight of the UGM members.

This should have been a magnificent cosmic performance, but among the flock of bird monsters, one terrifying monster stood out so conspicuously, and its actions directly ruined the beauty that should have been present when the flock of bird monsters appeared.

Immediately, Junkichi Ito's voice rang out: "Advisor, Captain, Zakira has been spotted at point F30 in space."

Kazuki Oyama immediately responded, "Okay, investigate its ecology and power in as much detail as possible."

Junkichi Ito immediately replied, "Understood."

Immediately, Hiroshi Tajima and Tokihiko Harada aimed all the detection equipment on board the spacecraft Mami at Zakira.

Naturally, Zakira's every move in the universe was seen by everyone at UGM.

Soon, everyone witnessed an extremely shocking scene.

Zakira's figure darted through the universe, and in the blink of an eye, eight Baloos died at its hands.

At the same time, the numbers displayed by the monster detection radar locked onto Zakira suddenly began to soar.

The implications of linking these two situations together are self-evident.

Zachira increases its power by constantly preying on Balu.

Seeing this, Ito Junkichi's voice rang out again: "Advisor, Captain, is there anything we need to do?"

Upon hearing this, Daiyama Kazuki did not immediately respond to Ito Junkichi, but instead turned to look at Gu Chen.

Clearly, at this point, even Kazuki Oyama was somewhat undecided.

Seeing this, Gu Chen said, "Don't hesitate, attack!"
