How did you bunch of silly group members also time travel?

"Alright, I'll catch up on my sleep first!" Zero nodded and immediately fell asleep in his original position.

Upon closer observation, Miss Fox noticed the difference between Zero being asleep and not asleep.

Zero's eyes become much dimmer when he falls asleep...

Chapter 609 Timely Loss Prevention

"There is no trace of the Kirieloids left in the universe. How could this generation of humans have achieved such a feat?"

In the dimly lit room with the curtains drawn, even the Yu Lian projected by the time machine showed a rare expression of surprise.

"Heh, those cowardly fools who have no real strength but are arrogant and conceited, isn't it only natural that they would end up like this?" Lun Liang sneered disdainfully.

The Kirieloids were originally intended as partners, but it was a terrible choice. They were the last resort, and it was expected that they would run away after witnessing the battle of Kuroshima.

Tsk, if it weren't for the combination of a time traveler and Zero on the GUTS team, how could he, a dignified ultimate life form, have fallen to the point of having to rely on those cowards!

Those Kirieloids, masters of escape, were completely wiped out. Considering that the technological level of this generation of humans wasn't even one percent of her era's, how did they manage that? Was it done by those two people from another world and that unknown Ultraman? Yu Lian wondered.

However, Lun Liang was completely unaware of this and assumed that the group of Kirieloids had run away.

There's no need to tell him.

Since outsiders possess such power, perhaps they can resolve the issue of R'lyeh ahead of time, thus giving humanity an extra trump card when facing Gatanothor in the end.

Ultraman is absolutely trustworthy, but outsiders who don't speak the language...

Yu Lian stared blankly at Lun Liang, silently weighing her options. Outsiders, like humans, possess both good and evil, unlike Ultraman who is purely good. To be honest, even though the outsider who opposes Lun Liang stands on the side of humanity, it's hard to guarantee that he might have ulterior motives.

"What are you thinking?" Lun Liang suddenly raised his head, his eyes piercing, as if he could see right through You Lian's thoughts.

However, You Lian did not react much, and on the surface, she still looked at Lun Liang calmly.

It took a while, until Lunliang's eyes started to feel dry, before it ended.

Tsk, this woman is definitely thinking something behind the scenes!

But Lun Liang had no choice. This woman was a shrewd person 30 million years ago, and now she has the advantage of not being human. Trying to extract information from her... might be possible, but he would definitely not be the one to do it now.

but...

Lun Liang glanced at the time machine itself and couldn't help but chuckle.

"why are you laughing."

"It's nothing, I'm just glad I made the decision to bring this over."

Snapped--!

Gently patting the smooth, cold surface of the time machine, Lun Lian's smile carried a unique emotion.

"Captain Yuzare, don't wander off! If you accidentally die out there, some of the measures we have in place to cover for Tiga won't be available anymore!"

Regardless of what this woman is planning behind the scenes, with Gatanothor and R'lyeh involved, as long as the time machine is in his hands, she won't dare to act rashly.

Thinking about it, Lun Liang raised an eyebrow at You Lian.

"How about you tell me how to open R'lyeh? I can guarantee I'll only take the accumulated darkness inside; I, Lunliang, won't touch a single thing else!"

"There's no need to wait for Tiga to grow up; we can solve R'lyeh's problem immediately, so you can rest in peace soon~"

"It's a great deal, isn't it?"

That's only because you can't beat the outsiders and that Ultraman warrior over there. Before you suffered that setback, you didn't plan to do that. You Lian's expression remained unchanged, but she knew perfectly well what Lun Liang was up to.

Before he suffered a setback, Lun Liang and Yang Xuan were arrogant and didn't care at all whether she would provide the method to unlock R'lyeh, because they weren't in a hurry. Now that their positions were painfully equal, he had no choice but to care about the time.

Although Yu Lian could only stay here and had limited access to information from the outside world, she still had a clear understanding of the situation.

Lun Liang couldn't handle the outsiders from the Victory Team, and now his strength was reduced to a small fraction. It was impossible for him to turn the tide head-on. He could only hope that some hostile force on Earth could help him and attract attention.

The reason is nothing more than that the outsider on the other side has some means to detect his true form immediately.

Therefore, Lun Liang urgently needs something else to replenish his strength so that he can escape.

If his location is exposed, he will surely die.

"Hmph." Seeing that You Lian hadn't spoken for a long time, Lun Liang's expression turned angry. "If you don't want a fight to the death, you'd better not come up with any wicked ideas!"

He couldn't defeat the transmigrator and Zero from the GUTS team, but he still had the ability to drag others down with him before he died.

After all, he is an ultimate life form.

However, Lunliang noticed that even after he made those harsh words, Youlian ignored him, her expression remained unchanged, and she simply closed her eyes and remained silent.

Lun Liang looked at it for a while, but he really couldn't see anything wrong with it.

All I could do was take out a small piece of high-tech gadget, about the size of my palm, and browse the news online.

Unfortunately, he lacked information technology skills and couldn't hack into the Victory Team's network to access any confidential information. He could only filter through the messages one by one, judging their authenticity in order to see if the Victory Team or TPC had made any moves.

But he was distracted, his true intentions were elsewhere; Lun Liang's attention was mostly focused on wiping You Lian with his peripheral vision.

After the battle on Kyuro Island, Rinryo, who was stranded there, tried every day to get the key to open the door from Ruruye through various conversations, just like now. But Yuzare was now fearless and no longer afraid of him, keeping her mouth shut.

Fortunately, with Gatanothor and R'lyeh around, Yuzare didn't dare to push him too hard and still gave him some information so that he could see hope.

snort!

Lun Liang gritted his teeth, but he was helpless against this woman.

He'd been lured into a trap, and was still being manipulated, yet he could only swallow all his emotions and willingly let this woman lead him by the strings.

"Still using the time machine, so he's figured it out and told me how to activate R'lyeh...!?"

Lun Liang suddenly stood up, golden energy surging with his anger—

Boom! ! !

The sturdy time machine took a heavy punch, and the dent in its outer shell affected the intricate internal components, causing the holographic projection of the time machine to become blurry and distorted.

But Yu Lian's figure and expression remained unchanged.

Amidst the constantly distorted and reduced resolution, Yu Lian's movements and expressions remained unchanged throughout, with her eyes closed as if she were resting. The undamaged speaker of the time machine also failed to emit any sound, as if she didn't care at all about Lun Liang's destruction of the time machine.

"The soul is not here!"

They escaped! Right under his nose!

"Damn it, you want to fight to the death, huh?!" Gritting his teeth, Lun Liang punched the time machine a few more times, completely destroying the instrument that spanned 30 million years, but he still couldn't get over it.

But there was nothing he could do but stay in his room, raging helplessly!

"No, we can't just sit here and wait to die. We have no choice but to take a desperate measure!"

Now that things have come to this, getting angry won't solve anything; the only thing he should do is cut his losses in time!

Chapter 610 The Headless Fox Knight

"So, you're here to gamble on my character, is that it?"

On her way back to her room, Miss Fox was munching on a peach and humming a song when suddenly, a pitiful figure jumped out from around the corner.

I was terrified, it was so scary, I almost screamed. I thought I was being haunted by some evil spirit.

If Miss Fox hadn't been brave enough and hadn't recognized Yu Lian, she really would have turned around and run away.

"...So, you don't need to keep such a long distance from me."

Yu Lian looked at Miss Fox, who was ten meters away from her, and said.

“He quickly realized that I had left. Without the time machine, I can only exist for a little longer. Now that Tiga has not yet grown up, you are the last hope.”

"So you're planning to release the theatrical version ahead of schedule—I mean, you're planning to resolve the R'lyeh issue ahead of schedule and hand over the key to unlocking it to me?"

"Yes, he does have the ability to forcefully break through R'lyeh's barrier, but the commotion would be too great and you would notice it. Furthermore, he couldn't break the barrier at the final crucial point in a short time and kept trying to learn the method to open it from me."

"And now that you've run away, wanting to fight him to the death, he'll cut his losses and rush to force his way into Luluye's place?"

"Therefore, he will have no choice but to show himself and face you."

"..."

Yu Lian stood respectfully, holding a ball of light, waiting for Miss Fox to make a decision or reveal her true colors.

When making this decision, Yuzare had already anticipated all possible scenarios.

Whether Miss Fox graciously agreed, haggled for payment, or snatched the keys with an expression of ecstatic joy, she was already prepared to accept it.

Just as she said, she came to gamble on Miss Fox's character.

only,"..."

Yu Lian glanced at Miss Fox out of the corner of her eye. What was with that strange expression on her face, which looked like she had eaten a weird-tasting bean that tasted like booger but she couldn't quite put her finger on it?

And how long will she have to hold up the ball of light? Will she accept or refuse? Give us a straight answer.

GUTS member Shinjo: @MissFox (a newbie): Oh no! Ryou has appeared on the sea! He seems to be starting something, and Daigo is already on his way!

Hiss! Miss Fox leaned back.

Lun Liang's movements were unusually fast; he ran straight to Luluye's side intending to force his way in.

GUTS member Shinjo: Oh no, he's already inside, but the barrier has been restored, we can't get in! Miss Fox!

Tsk tsk tsk, locking yourself inside is quite an achievement, quite the operation.

Miss Fox sighed, "Alright, I'll wake Zero up and go over there. After all, I'm in a bit of a hurry."

They already knew Lun Liang's information and were planning to set a trap for him.

Unexpectedly, You Lian intervened, leaving Lun Liang with no way out. He stepped forward, intending to fight to the death. The "boiling frog in lukewarm water" plan, which had just been finalized, was about to be thrown into the wastepaper basket before it could even be implemented.

I wonder what Horii is thinking now, after all, it was a plan that he and Masaki Keigo argued about for most of the day and finally came to an agreement with.

The verbal sparring was a complete waste.

"Don't you need the key?" Yu Lian was still holding the key.

Miss Fox's mouth twitched slightly.

That's absolutely right, she really doesn't need this broken key.

With the ability to create dimensional rifts and having deduced to its current limit using Zero's CPU, Miss Fox's sealing barrier is basically dispensable to her.

With the coordinates, getting in is easy, right? *Thump!*

Just like now, Miss Fox punched hard, directly opening a dimensional rift entrance leading to the interior of the R'lyeh Ruins in the TPC corridor.

Upon entering, one encounters three strangely posed stone statues.

"Yo, Camilla, Radam, Hitler!"

Yu Lian, who had come along, was shocked. Gatanothor hadn't fully awakened yet, and the protective barrier around the ruins hadn't dissipated. How could someone have just opened a door and run right in here?!

"Cough! Cough cough cough cough!"

So this is the price I'm paying...

Yu Lian was surprised to see the fox lady in front of her suddenly cough violently, but she quickly realized what was happening.

It's absurd to bypass Gatanothor's dark power and run into R'lyeh from the side, but if there's some price to pay, then it makes sense. After all, a skill that costs you your life must have some effect.

And I can rest assured now. People who are willing to pay a heavy price to stop Lun Liang are absolutely trustworthy. I made the right bet. You Lian thought with relief.

"It hasn't been cleaned for 30 million years, and it's still buried in the deep ruins... I'm suffocating!"

It opened a small door at random, stuck its head out, and greedily took a breath, turning into a headless fox.

Miss Fox was almost suffocated by R'lyeh's scent.

She almost forgot that Gatanothor hadn't woken up yet, and R'lyeh hadn't surfaced. After sitting at the bottom of the sea for thirty million years, there wasn't a single drop of air left.

Of course, it's fine if it's just air.

Although she hasn't fully transformed yet, Miss Fox can still absorb spiritual energy through cultivation to replace her need for breathing and food, so she's perfectly fine even without air.

But the smell is terrible, it really is terrible.

Just standing there, the smell of R'lyeh fermenting for 30 million years could suffocate her... or rather, suffocate her!

In short, he died a terrible death because of his nose.

He tentatively pulled his head back inside R'lyeh—
