Hunting Tartarus for 100,000 years

As soon as Ultraman Zero entered this universe, he felt a different atmosphere.

silence.

It's completely different from when I came here a thousand years ago.

Zero remembered that when he entered this universe a thousand years ago, countless mechanical monsters, Diaborig, were ready to attack and aimed at him.

But this time when I came here, there was not even the slightest movement.

"How could this happen? Isn't this Torrekia's base camp? How could it be so desolate?" Zero asked in confusion.

"I don't know. Logically speaking, the monster army here should be the most powerful and densest." Mebius replied.

"I can sense that the atmosphere here was chaotic and disordered some time ago. This means that for a long time before, this universe was filled with oppression and resistance. But now, this atmosphere has suddenly disappeared."

Mebius looked at him in confusion. Could he feel something like this?

"Could it be that knowing you were coming, the monsters and aliens abandoned Tregear and fled for their lives?"

Sero smiled and shook his head, "How could such a thing happen?"

"Didn't Max form a resistance army here?"

"I don't know where it is based on the address..."

When Zero heard this, his thoughts instantly sank into the universe.

Zero's will spread outward, instantly covering most of the star field, but without any of Torrekia's legions.

"How could this be?"

As Zero continued to search outside, he suddenly felt a familiar wave.

Cero opened his eyes and immediately said, "Search in all directions. Mebius and Tartarus, follow me."

After he said that, he turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the only direction with life fluctuations.

Tartarus and Mebius looked at each other and followed.

Three streams of light shuttled through the endless starry sky, then entered a galaxy and stopped in front of a planet.

Ultraman Zero slowly landed.

On the ground of this planet, stood a familiar figure.

Zero rushed forward and landed in front of the figure.

"Long time no see, Dark Baltan."

When Dark Baltan saw Zero coming, he took a few steps forward with a look of guilt in his eyes.

Complex said: "It's been a long time."

Zero understood that he was apologizing for what happened a thousand years ago, and he immediately said:

"Where have all the monsters in this universe gone? Where has Tregear gone? And what about the guards you and Max created?"

Dark Baltan suddenly swung his giant pincers.

Then an invisible spherical protective barrier instantly appeared from behind him, and then gradually disintegrated backwards.

Inside the spherical protective barrier are all the soldiers of Max's resistance army.

Dark Baltan spoke.

"It's all here."

Zero looked at the warriors behind Dark Baltan. They all had wounds of varying degrees on their bodies, countless new and old.

"What's going on here?"

Dark Baltan said:

"A few days ago, the defenders of the Spiral Galaxy sent a call for help. Max wasn't there at the time, so I sent Justice to lead a group of people to provide support. Later, Orb and Taiga also went to provide support, but the results were still not ideal. Max went to the completely fallen Sano Galaxy to investigate the situation. At that time, I sensed something was wrong, so I began to gather all the defenders here. What you see now is the Triga Universe, which is probably the only remaining living force..."

Behind Dark Baltan, countless warriors stared at Zero, their eyes shining with hope.

Dark Baltan continued, "Some time later, Max returned from the Sano System. He said he had discovered Tregear's plan to hunt Dark Zagi in the Spiral System. So, he rushed back, explained a few things, and then quickly headed to the Spiral System to rescue Dark Zagi."

Behind Dark Baltan, the miniature Baltan Barulu walked behind Dark Baltan and looked at Ultraman Zero curiously.

"The war will end, believe me." Ultraman Zero gently touched Baruru's head.

Barulu looked up, "Where is Max now? Is he safe?"

Ultraman Zero didn't know either, and just nodded slightly while hesitating.

"What happened next?" Zero looked at Dark Baltan.

Dark Baltan continued, "Some time after Max left, Ultraman Cosmos' body suddenly dissipated and transformed into a streak of green light. That light surrounded all the resistance forces and eventually gathered here to form a protective barrier like this before disappearing."

"A few days later, I suddenly felt the chaotic atmosphere outside suddenly cease. The monsters seemed to evaporate in an instant, so I went out to investigate alone. In the end, I found nothing. I was afraid it was Tregear's conspiracy, so I didn't take any action and waited here for your arrival."

Ultraman Zero nodded.

"Does Torrekia have any new conspiracy? What happened to Dark Zagi?" asked Dark Baltan.

"I don't know either. I guess we'll only know after we find Tregear... Do you know where Taro and the others are being held?"

Dark Baltan nodded.

……

tick-

tick-

In a claustrophobic blue crystal cage.

A red figure was trapped inside a crystal, his body limp and his head lowered.

He was surrounded by layers of dark blue crystal barriers of indeterminate depth, and he was the only one there.

Cold and lonely.

It has been like this for hundreds of years.

A drop of dew fell into the crystal that trapped him, seeped in and merged into his timer.

A faint light ignited from the timer on his chest,

He looked around, still no different from before, he sighed, "I wonder how Zero is doing now... and how is Taiga doing?"

He was in a daze for a few seconds, and the timer dimmed again.

The crystal fortress returned to silence. Above the crystal, a new drop of dew slowly condensed, waiting for the next drop.

Just as it has been for hundreds of years.

suddenly!

A crisp sound was heard.

It was as if something was broken.

Ultraman Taro seemed to feel the sun's rays shining on him.

He raised his head, and the timer once again emitted a faint light, and the hexagonal red eyes shone.

The darkness in my eyes was dispelled.

Light returned to his sight.

The "sky" that had trapped him for hundreds of years collapsed.

"Cero...Mebius..."

Ultraman Zero and Ultraman Mebius landed in front of him.

Zero swung the dart in his hand to split the crystal that trapped Ultraman Taro.

Taro fell helplessly, and Zero stepped forward to catch him.

Ultraman Taro slowly raised his head and a slight sound came out of his mouth.

"Tregear...went to the center of the universe. He...wants to restart the universe."
