Moonlight team, are you awake?

I, who had been searching for an opening, suddenly felt that there might be an opportunity. So I immediately made a gesture, and King Black immediately understood and locked Argyros from behind. I, on the other hand, launched the Quantum Stream at the fastest speed, preparing to give Argyros a hard blow.

But things didn't seem to go beyond what I had expected. Before the monster was beaten to the point of being unable to get back up, it was basically impossible to take it away with the beam of light. Before I could even launch my quantum stream, Arjulos turned into a pool of liquid metal and slipped out of King Black's arms. Then the liquid metal quickly flowed to a distance and reformed into the shape of Arjulos.

"Looks like I'll have to either beat it to a pulp or wait until it unleashes its ultimate attack and can't liquefy anymore before making my move." I forcibly interrupted the launch of the quantum streamer.

At this moment, Arjuros, having successfully created distance, also regrouped. Realizing that its abilities seemed to have been exposed for some unknown reason, it immediately stopped concealing them. In addition to its left arm transforming into a greatsword, its right arm also became a beam cannon, and it directly raised its hand to blast towards I-Dream and Black King.

"Dodge!" My Dream and Black King had a plan for this. Whoever the beam cannon was aimed at, another person would go up and harass it. They would do everything possible to make the most of their numbers.

The pre-prepared tactics worked as expected. When Aljuros aimed at Gamu, Black King would roll and rush up to interrupt it, and when it turned to deal with Black King, Gamu would harass it with skills such as shuriken and light bullets.

Even when Arjuros was determined to fight Black King to the death, enduring the shuriken light bullets head-on, Gamu directly charged up her photon ice blade right in front of him, forcing Arjuros to continue focusing on Gamu. However, the price was that it was beaten to the ground by Black King in close combat because it simply couldn't focus on close combat.

A few minutes later, Taganura and Deltandar arrived at the scene by burrowing underground and flying, respectively. Following the positions that I had arranged long ago, everyone stood in front of, behind, to the left and right of Arjulos, making it unable to concentrate on dealing with anyone.

When there isn't a huge gap in stats, numerical superiority is very effective. Aljulos, who was surrounded, was immediately beaten and rolled around on the ground. Taganura's high-temperature rays, Deltandar's moonlight bullets, Imu's shuriken light bullets, and Black King's fireballs kept coming from different directions, making it impossible for Aljulos to defend.

However, although the fight was very exciting, I didn't feel relaxed at all, because these small skills alone were not enough to kill the metal life form. He still needed a chance to kill it with one blow.

Under continuous onslaught, Arjulos suddenly let out a roar like an elephant. Then, its body began to glow red, and its body, which was originally covered in metal armor, began to rapidly mimic the appearance of Gaia V1.

"The second phase has begun." I had anticipated this situation. Algulos has the ability to mimic Ultraman. In the main series, he mimicked Agul, and in the official special mini-drama, he even mimicked Ultraman Ace. Moreover, his abilities can be completely copied, making him even more advanced than Babar.

Aljulos, who was impersonating Gaia, went berserk immediately. First, it used teleportation to escape the encirclement, and then it charged towards Imu with a clear goal. It seemed to understand that Imu was the core of this group of guys. It was because of him that they were able to cooperate so closely. As long as Gaia was killed, the rest of them could be defeated one by one.

Unfortunately, I had already anticipated that it would target me, since the previous metal life form had always locked his head, which is why he was lured into the Rainbow Realm and killed.

Testimonials

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it's time for the familiar launch announcement segment again.

I remember when I was writing "Opening Kamen Rider in the Infinite Flow Style", when my beautiful editor told me that it would be available for purchase the next day, I pondered for a moment, and then tremblingly changed my ID in the author group to "Last full meal, on the road tomorrow".

Today, when the young woman told me again that the product would be available tomorrow, my attitude was one of calmness, composure, relief, and peace.

Having written books on Shuke for so many years, I have thought many times about what kind of works I want to write.

Heavy and thought-provoking? Funny, lighthearted, and silly? Or an invincible story where you sweep through everything in your path?

Ultimately, I came to only one conclusion: I need to write things that will make the audience happy.

Even after becoming an author, I still often read novels and articles. From a reader's perspective, the only reason I spend time opening a web novel is that I hope to make myself happy by reading it.

Although I wrote a hellish scenario, this book is essentially for fun. Although I often get tortured by giants who fall from the sky, I always manage to retaliate in the end. No matter what difficulties I face, I will eventually overcome them, just like in Dragon Ball. This is a fun adventure story, and you don't need to worry about anything making you feel depressed.

Although it's cruel, as times change and we get older, happiness and ease are becoming increasingly rare. If my work can bring some relaxation and joy to people, then I consider it a success.

All the plot designs are intended to create joy, to make readers unconsciously smile. That is my creative philosophy.

Chapter 52 Are you guys going to put on some kind of gay act?

So far, Artyuros's actions have all been within my dream's expectations.

Faced with the sudden attack from Arjuros, I simply smiled and then used teleportation to appear next to King Black.

The title of "Bodyguard Monster" is well-deserved.

When I dreamt of standing next to King Black, Aljulos was immediately paralyzed. If it went up for close combat, it would definitely be brutally defeated by King Black. King Black was already strong in close combat, and this one of my dreams had been specially trained, with its fighting techniques specifically enhanced to counter Gaia. Even if I dreamt of myself and Aljulos went up together, they might not be able to defeat King Black in close combat.

At this moment, Arjulos's electronic brain was in a state of confusion. It racked its brains but still couldn't understand why the other side seemed to know everything about its actions. From the moment it landed, all its actions seemed to have been predicted. What was going on? Did the other side have precognition?

With no hope in close combat, Arjuros had no choice but to recklessly unleash his beam all-in.

It charged up and unleashed a powerful beam of light at King Black, attempting to break the deadlock with a high-damage beam attack.

As it turned out, something even more astonishing happened: King Black actually struck a special pose and caught the quantum streamer with his bare hands, like he was practicing Tai Chi. At the same time, I Meng, who was hiding behind King Black, took the opportunity to jump to King Black's side and also charged up his quantum streamer to shoot at Arjuros.

Although the beam skill is very powerful, its pre-cast and post-cast animations are quite long. Arjuros was clearly unaware of this. When I Dream launched the quantum beam, it intended to immediately activate its shield to block it, but it didn't expect that it couldn't stop the launch immediately and could only watch helplessly as the quantum beam hit it.

With a violent tremor, Arjulos's massive body was violently propelled away by the quantum stream, just like when I was hit by Mos'a's fireball in my dream, and he flew backwards, plowing through more than ten acres of land.

When it got up, its body, which had originally perfectly mimicked Gaia, had its skin almost completely burned off by the quantum streamlines, revealing the black-hearted cotton inside.

“真抗揍啊。”我梦忍不住咂舌。

If I had been able to use the Photon Ice Blade, I might have had a chance to take this guy down in one go. However, the Photon Ice Blade's wind-up is much longer than the Quantum Stream. When I was making the plan, I used a calculator to figure out that only the Quantum Stream's firing speed could be timed perfectly to coincide with the aftercast of Arjuros's skill, leaving him no time to defend. If I had used the Photon Ice Blade, it could have activated its shield at the very last moment.

[Master Gao from afar]: "It seems the outcome is already decided. The opponent is being completely manipulated."

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Look everyone, this is the purity of Black King! It is because of Black King that the giants of Earth can so easily toy with their opponents. Whether it is fighting or defense, Black King is the best choice with a super high cost performance. What are you waiting for? Buy now, first come first served!"

[A Good Brother from Planet]: "Is this a live stream or a promotional video for BlackKing? BlackKing seems so useful!"

[Combating Piracy]: "Hehe, it doesn't feel as good as Jaden."

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Zetton alien, that's enough! How much is your Zetton worth? How much is my Black King worth?"

[Combating Piracy]: "Heh, if it's inferior, it's inferior. What's with the price? At Jetton, you get what you pay for. We're stating the facts!"

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Fine, fine, you want trouble? Then don't blame me."

[Combating Piracy]: "Heh, what can you do about it?"

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "I feel... the Zetton of the Zettonians isn't as good as the Zetton of the Batterians ^^_^"

[Combating Piracy]: "?"

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "I feel like the Zettons of the Baltan aliens will gradually replace the Zetton market of the Zetton aliens. Maybe in the future, no one will even know that the Zetton aliens sell Zettons anymore. Zetton aliens? What are those 0.o?"

[Combating Piracy]: "I *****!"

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Hehehe, get so worked up! I was just stating the facts, why is anyone getting so defensive? Oh dear, maybe in a few days the giant of Earth will be showing off Batter's Zetton to the whole universe. He's so good at playing games, Batter's Zetton will definitely perform well, and orders will skyrocket!"

[Combating Piracy]: "I'm going to fucking kill Batter!!!"

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Hilarious! How many years have you been saying this? If you could take it down, wouldn't you have done it already? It's just that you're...incapable~ Zetton alien, if you sell Zettons in the future, be careful people will say you're selling counterfeit goods~~(^ω^)"

The user, who was "fighting piracy," left the live stream.

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Yo yo yo, someone broke their guard and ran away, hehe."

[Master Gao from afar]: "As expected, women are quite powerful..."

[Cosmic Fighter]: "Never mess with a woman..."

[It's a nose, not DIO]: "As the saying goes, there's always someone who can subdue another. Last time I saw Ms. Ekona and Ms. Helotia arguing so fiercely that it escalated to pulling each other's hair..."

[Liks Oolong Tea]: "Let's talk about pulling hair."

[Pressure Magician]: "Why aren't you recording a video? I love watching women fight."

[It's a nose, not DIO]: "I was afraid of dying, so I didn't record it. Also, everyone should just focus on watching the live stream. It seems like something's going to happen to that guy on Earth."

[Cosmic Fighter]: "What? He was just fighting really well... Holy crap!"

In the live stream, the three musketeers led by Wo Meng had already started kicking Arjulos like a football. It looked like Arjulos was about to be killed in a little while. Unexpectedly, a wormhole suddenly appeared in the sky. Judging from the special effects of the wormhole, it was obviously created by the Annihilation Summoning Entity.

A red figure leaped down from the wormhole, simultaneously launching a beam attack in mid-air, instantly blasting Meng and the others away.

Having been blasted to the ground, I rolled over and got up, my eyes fixed on the spot where I had just been: "And who is this person?"

I had considered the possibility of accidents during the fight, but accidents are something you really can't prevent. The reason an accident is called an accident is because it's completely unpredictable. Who knows what might suddenly jump out?

When I looked closely, I realized that the one who had just blasted everyone away was Gaia, who looked almost exactly like me. Judging from the metal rings around its waist and knees, it must be the mechanical Gaia made by Salome.

Mechanical Gaia was stolen by the Destruction Summoning Entity and must have undergone special modifications. It immediately helped Arjulos up and shot out a beam of light from its timer to repair Arjulos's body, restoring it to Gaia's original appearance.

At that moment, two almost identical fake Gaias stood there on the left and right, giving me a very bad feeling.

"You two, are you planning to put on some kind of gay act in front of me?"

Chapter Fifty-Three: Gaia Dies in the Sunset!

There are now three Gaias on the field, and the situation has become extremely tense. I even think that the three of them might try to combine into a two-star Gaia.

"Although the number of enemies has increased to two, the overall tactics remain the same. As long as King Black can withstand the beam attacks head-on, the advantage remains with us... I... Holy crap!!!"

To my utter astonishment, Arjuros transformed into a pool of molten metal and crawled onto Mechanical Gaia. Then, Mechanical Gaia's aura surged dramatically! It surged wildly! It surged powerfully!

In that instant, the mechanical Gaia's stats were twice as strong as ever. Although its appearance did not change significantly, thanks to Salome's technology and the fusion with the metal life form, its stats had undoubtedly reached a level comparable to Gaia V2.

Although the two opponents couldn't gather a single drop of Earth Light from their bodies, they successfully increased their stats through fusion.

A thing that looks exactly like Gaia, has twice the stats of Gaia V1, and can use all of Gaia's special moves is no different from the real Gaia V2.

At that moment, I felt a sudden dizziness.

The Heavenly Ranks have been reversed; this time, the Heavenly Ranks have truly been reversed.

In the original work, the third metallic lifeform, Mimos, merely mimicked Gaia V1, only to be easily defeated by Gaia, who had already upgraded to V2.

But with him, the genuine product is still V1, while the fake has already been upgraded to V2, and he's currently sporting Arturos's classic wicked smile.

In my dream, I could almost hear the other person reciting that timeless classic line: "No one has ever said that counterfeit goods are necessarily worse than genuine goods, right?"

[Devil Gentleman]: "What an amusing development! The counterfeit actually outperforms the real thing..."

【AAA Doll Customization: Ms. Hai】: "Complex feelings"

【A Good Brother from Planet】: "Fake goods aren't necessarily worse than real ones, I like this development!" (Donated 500 Star Coins)

[Likes Oolong Tea]: "I feel increasingly sorry for this giant on Earth. What kind of life does he lead every day..." (Sent 100 Star Coins out of pity)

【AAA Super Beast Wholesaler Mr. Asia】: "Host, if you feel you can't hold on, you can agree to the conditions I mentioned before. I'm confident I can help you get it done."

【Cosmic Fighter】: "Hang in there, streamer, I'll be there in 29 days."

[Strawberry Cream Cake]: "Gaia must be devastated right now..."

However, at this moment, I felt unexpectedly calm, relieved, and peaceful.

Well, after fighting in this world for so long, I seem to have gradually gotten used to the unspoken rules that this world occasionally imposes on me. If this battle goes smoothly and according to plan, I might actually feel a little uncomfortable.

He accepted this sudden change with remarkable composure, then calmly got up, dusted himself off, and prepared to regroup.

"Come on! Let me see just how big the difference is between V2 and V1!"

Although the situation had changed, I Dream did not lose his composure. He and King Black continued to charge forward for close combat, while Taganura and Deltandar provided ranged support. They positioned themselves one in front of the other, preventing Mechanical Gaia from engaging in full-force combat.

Imu took the lead and threw a straight punch, which was caught by the opponent with one hand as expected. Then, the opponent used his other hand to knock back Black King with a chop. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the opponent pounced on Imu and delivered a series of abdominal punches to Imu's abdomen. Imu couldn't help but groan. Being hit by a V2-level punch really hurt.

Taganura and Deltandar's attacks arrived just in time. High-temperature rays and moonlight bullets bombarded the mechanical Gaia one after the other, causing sparks to fly as he released Gaia in pain. However, Gaia's V2-level physical defense seemed to be less afraid of their attacks, and he didn't even need to use the metal life form's repair ability.

Mechanical Gaia's electronic brain accurately calculated its own advantages and disadvantages in this battle. It abandoned its main attack on Imu and Black King in front of it and chose to teleport directly into the sky. From behind, it used a surprise attack to slam the unsuspecting Deltandar directly to the ground. Although Deltandar's tough body prevented it from suffering fatal injuries, it would probably be difficult for it to get up for a while after being hit by V2's surprise attack.

Immediately afterward, Mecha Gaia set its sights on Taganura. It once again used teleportation to dodge the lunging Black King and arrived directly in front of Taganura. Before Deltandar could react, it grabbed Taganura's arm and slammed it over its shoulder to the ground. Just as it was about to finish off the enemy, Imu arrived in time to provide support, forcing Mecha Gaia to switch sides and continue fighting him.

Without the firepower support of Deltangal and Taganura, Mechagaia, with its strength and speed twice that of V1, steadily gained the upper hand in the battle. Even when Gamu and Black King launched attacks from the left and right, Mechagaia was still able to handle them with ease. Moreover, as a metal life form, it also had the advantage of stamina and regenerative ability.

After several minutes of fighting, Mechanical Gaia seized the opportunity when I Dream's stamina was low, kicked Black King away, and then used a zero-distance instantaneous quantum streamer to send I Dream flying.

After being blown away, I struggled several times but couldn't get up, and the timer on my chest started flashing wildly.

Seeing that victory seemed assured, Mechagaia once again revealed Arjulos's classic wicked smile.

However, at this moment, Imu, who was lying on the ground, calmly sat up and patted the dust off her body: "As expected, the difference of 2 times is huge. After obtaining the power of V2 level, I can no longer take many of my former enemies seriously."

"?!" Mechanical Gaia couldn't understand why Imu, who seemed to have reached a dead end, didn't seem flustered at all.

Its electronic brain accurately calculated that even if all four players on the field were instantly restored to full health, their chances of winning would still be zero, because the V2 level was overwhelming for them. Theoretically, there was no way to break the deadlock unless the opponent could immediately produce a V2 level or even stronger unit.

But if they had such a thing, shouldn't they have used it already?

“From the moment you arrived, you were doomed. The only difference was how you died.” I Meng slowly stood up, her timer flashing wildly, yet she remained calm and composed: “Thank you for letting me experience the power of V2 from my opponent’s perspective, but it’s time to end.”

Looking up at the sky, I saw that the sun was setting. I snapped my fingers and said, "Come out, you space dinosaur Zetton!"

Almost instantly after the sound fell, Zetton, who was 60 meters tall and weighed 30,000 tons, instantly appeared in the middle of the battlefield using teleportation.

"Beep~~~~Zetton~~~Beep~~~~~"

Chapter 54 already stated that beam attacks cannot be used against Zetton!

To be honest, I was really reluctant to use up the Zetton so soon after I got it, because it was just too powerful.

However, there's no point in buying a Jetton if you don't use it when you need it.

The purpose of spending so many Star Coins to buy a Zetton is to overcome the crisis with the strongest stats and mechanics when an enemy appears that one cannot defeat no matter how hard one tries.

Mechanical Gaia has reached V2 level and has learned all of Gaia's combat skills. What's even more terrifying is that this guy has almost unlimited stamina and unlimited mana.
