Moonlight team, are you awake?

Speechless after being refuted, Yamanaka finally managed to utter, "This is absurd!"

Horii's expression remained very calm throughout. In fact, as a researcher, being questioned by people outside the field is a common occurrence, because many of the things they say are indeed counterintuitive. If they didn't firmly believe in the knowledge they have learned, they themselves would find it difficult to accept those facts.

He calmly addressed the crowd, saying, "Actually, how long this monster has lived is not important. This is not what we need to care about. Whether it has lived for 30 million years, 300 million years, or has only been born for three days, it will not change our stance on it. There is only one thing we need to do: eliminate it when it harms humanity."

"Well said!" Shinjo couldn't help but give Horii a thumbs up. For some reason, he felt an inexplicable affinity with this chubby researcher in the white coat.

"Our top priority right now is to pinpoint the monster's location. For some reason, I have a feeling it's heading this way," Captain Megumi said, her face showing worry.

Just then, the base's alarm suddenly went off, and everyone almost reflexively exclaimed, "Has that monster from the Mongolian Plain appeared?"

Saijo Nagi tapped the screen and shook her head: "No, another monster has appeared near Easter Island, and... there are two of them!"

"Two heads???" Now it was my turn to be restless. Easter Island is where Melba was resurrected. When Golza appeared, he guessed that Melba might also appear, but why are there two monsters in that place?

"What are the characteristics of the monsters on Easter Island?" I asked nervously.

"Currently, all we know are that they are two flying monsters; related videos are being transmitted!"

"Flying monsters... Holy crap, could it be Melba and Zoga?!" Cold sweat beaded on my forehead.

He subconsciously assumed that the two monsters that had been resurrected there were both ancient monsters, and among the ancient monsters, apart from Melba, the only one that could fly was Zoga.

If Zoga really appeared, he would be in trouble, because that thing's flight speed was so fast it was almost unbelievable, even faster than Sky Tiga. In the original work, Sky Tiga only caught up with it after his mind-based burst of speed increased.

If we're going to fight this thing, neither Taganura nor King Black will be of any use. My chances of winning against Zoga alone are slim, and it's questionable whether I can even catch up to him.

Fortunately, the images displayed on the big screen immediately dispelled my doubts.

The image does indeed show Melba and another monster, but that monster is not Zoga, but the Moonlight Monster Deltandar!

"So it's a member of the Moonlight team." My heart immediately settled back into my stomach.

The Moonlight Monster Deltandar is a native Earth monster, and it is the kind that will actively fight when invaded by external enemies, similar to Taganura.

In other words, there is a possibility that it could be converted into an allied force.

On the screen, Deltanga is engaged in aerial combat with Melba. In terms of speed, Deltanga has a clear advantage; its speed might even rival that of Zoga, let alone Melba.

With its superior speed, Del Tangal quickly gained the upper hand in the battle, hitting Melba multiple times in aerial combat.

Strangely, after being hit by several attacks, Melba suddenly began to fly downwards, as if it intended to land and engage in ground combat.

This is a bit baffling to me. Melba shouldn't be so stupid as to fight on the ground, right? If it lands, Deltandar could easily use it as a live target.

Just then, plumes of smoke and dust began to rise from the soil beneath them, and the earth began to tremble.

"Could it be trying to form a head?" I suddenly thought of a possibility.

Immediately afterwards, Golza emerged from underground, and Melba, upon seeing Golza, immediately began a low-altitude dive towards it.

An explosive scene unfolded: plumes of black smoke billowed from their bodies, and Melba lay directly on Golza's back. The black smoke merged them together, and their bodies suddenly swelled and grew larger, the two actually becoming one.

"Holy crap, is this how it's done?" I was suddenly stunned.

Golza and Melba merged to form the ancient dark monster Golba, which possesses both high-speed flight and powerful melee combat abilities, and its various beam shooting capabilities have also significantly improved.

But that's not what I was thinking about in my dream.

Gob has already appeared, and now Golza and Melba have appeared, and these two can even combine.

Will these bastards eventually unite into three emperors, or even five emperors?

Chapter Fifteen: Determination to Rise Up

"My Dream team member, are you feeling unwell?" Captain Megumi's gentle call brought My Dream back to reality.

He then noticed that cold sweat was dripping down his forehead, clearly indicating that his earlier speculation had indeed increased his stress.

But it's no wonder he was sweating, because he had just realized that this worldview seemed to be able to gather all the components of the Five Emperors.

Golza and Melba have appeared, and they even merged into Golba on the spot.

The existence of Gob has also confirmed that the arrival of Super Gob is only a matter of time.

The aquatic life form Silmu, the creator of Rechubas, was found in the TPC Chronicles to have the same reaction as the Sphia life form. In other words, given the existence of the Sphia life form, the appearance of Rechubas is a highly probable event.

EyeQ is a monster from the Gaia universe, so its appearance here doesn't seem out of place at all.

With all the materials for combining them all, I'd never believe I could fail to combine five emperors.

Captain Megumi was unaware of Gamu's concerns. Seeing that Gamu seemed to be in poor condition, she asked him softly, "Gamu, if you're feeling unwell, you should go to the medical department. Even if you're young, you can't neglect your health."

"I...I'm fine, I just need to...uh, I need to pee!" Meng awkwardly offered an explanation.

"Is that so?" Captain Megumi looked at him. "Then let's hurry up and go before the mission is assigned."

"Yes!" I hurriedly got up and left the war room, then rushed into the toilet.

He washed his face at the sink and stared at himself in the mirror.

Now he is Takayama Gamu, a member of the Earth Defense Force, but not long ago he was just an ordinary young man who liked to watch tokusatsu. Although he had dreamed of becoming a tall giant of light, he never thought it would be like this.

He had not undergone professional training, nor did he possess the intelligence of another version of himself. Suddenly summoned and placed in the position of savior, he inevitably felt flustered and at a loss.

But Meng is not a weak person. At least in such a critical moment, he never thinks, "The enemy is too strong, I'm just waiting to die," but rather, "I want to find a way to kill them all." Perhaps that is why he was chosen and summoned.

Being suddenly pulled into this situation is indeed unlucky, but complaining about how unlucky you are at this time is meaningless. A thousand complaints won't change the situation. The only thing that can save you is to fight as hard as you can and make your side stronger.

As a normal person, I naturally want to live, to live with everyone, and to live in a peaceful and normal world.

Therefore, regardless of fear, worry, or having to grit his teeth, he had to continue fighting and moving forward.

After calming myself down, I walked out of the restroom.

To his surprise, as soon as he stepped outside, he saw Captain Megumi waiting for him with a smile in the corridor.

She beckoned me to come over, and then led me into her personal office.

Even as I sat down in the wooden chair in the office, I was still a little confused about what the captain was trying to do.

Megumi poured me a cup of hot tea and gently pushed it off the table to Meng.

"My Dream Team Member, after fighting as a defense member for so long, what are your thoughts?"

"Thoughts?" I scratched my head. "If I had to say what I thought, it would be that these guys come a little too often."

Upon hearing this answer, Megumi smiled, seemingly agreeing wholeheartedly: "Yes, ever since joining the defense force, monsters have been attacking one after another. Sometimes, before we've even dealt with the monsters in one place, another one appears in another. And these guys always seem to get even more difficult to deal with, making it hard to see any hope."

"There's no hope... Does the captain feel this way too?"

“Of course.” Megumi took a small sip of her hot tea. “Even the captain of the defense force is just an ordinary person, and he also has the fears that come with being human. It’s not just me; everyone here is the same. Aren’t you, my teammate, the same?”

Once his thoughts were exposed, Gamu immediately understood that Captain Megumi had actually figured out why he was sweating so much. Although she certainly didn't know that Gamu was worried about the Five Emperors, she understood that Gamu was worried about the monsters.

Megumi stood up, walked to my dream's side, and gently stroked his hair: "It wasn't until today in the conference room that I suddenly remembered that you're actually not even 20 years old yet. Many people your age haven't even left school, let alone faced the front lines of humanity's fight against destruction."

"My dream team member, if you feel afraid, I will not force you to fight."

Captain Megumi's words made her meaning quite clear: she felt that I was still a child and it was understandable that I was afraid. If I couldn't overcome this situation, she could ask me to step down from the front lines.

To her surprise, Imu, who had been sweating profusely in the conference room not long ago, now shook her head, and there was no trace of fear in her eyes.

“Captain, I am no longer afraid. Whether victory or destruction awaits us in the future, all I want now is to fight, to fight with all my might. And…” I paused, my eyes gleaming, “I firmly believe that anything is possible with human effort!”

Captain Megumi looked at Imu with some surprise, and after a while she nodded with satisfaction: "Imu, you are right. It's all about human effort, and that's the reason why our defense team fights!"

Just then, both of their communicators rang. Without even looking, they knew it was headquarters issuing an order to attack.

"My Dream Team Member!"

"exist!"

"Attack!"

"understand!"

The two exchanged a knowing smile, and I ran straight out of the office towards the hangar.

According to headquarters, the ancient dark monster Golba is currently engaged in a fierce battle with the moon monster Deltandar. The combined Golba is significantly stronger than Deltandar in terms of stats, but Deltandar shows no sign of backing down and is currently using its speed advantage to fight Golba.

During the fierce battle, the beetle monster Taganura, which had appeared earlier, also appeared. It seemed to be on the same side as Deltangal, and the two launched attacks on Gorba from the land and the air respectively, but the situation was still not optimistic.

Headquarters' intention is to prioritize eliminating Gorba, and if possible, also eliminate Deltandar and Taganura.

"Idiot." When I saw this order, I just smiled dismissively. It was obviously an order from the brain-dead commander above.

What the hell is going on? Instead of trying to unite all available forces and stick together for mutual support at this critical juncture, they're still worrying about whether two Earth monsters that have never attacked humans before pose a threat. Did they get kicked in the head by Silvergon?

But orders are orders; whether or not they are obeyed is another matter entirely.

It's certain that Gorba will be defeated, but after defeating Gorba, the Beetle Monster suddenly burrows away and leaves, while the Moonlight Monster escapes sight with its super-fast flight speed. Isn't that normal?

Chapter Sixteen: Beat Him Up!

After boarding the fighter jet, I dreamed of flying directly towards the vicinity of Easter Island.

Taganura's digging speed is truly terrifying. I've never been able to understand how these digging monsters can achieve such a fast digging speed with just two hands. Golza can dig from the Mongolian plains to northeastern Japan in a single day, even crossing the sea in between. Taganura is almost the same as Golza, digging to the vicinity of Easter Island with just two hands.

How did they manage to do that? Even Tu Xingsun could only travel a thousand miles a day, which is only five hundred kilometers. These two brothers dug his mother more than sixteen thousand kilometers away.

Thirty-two times the average number of Tu Xingsun, right?

It took me quite a while to fly my fighter jet to reach the battlefield. At that time, Taganura and his forces were engaged in a fierce battle at the Ranoraraku crater, which is where Melba was resurrected. The most iconic structures there are the Easter Island statues, but due to the intense battle, those statues have been almost completely destroyed.

Although Golza seemed to have some similarities to Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong in the original TV series, this guy's actual strength was not low. In the subsequent appearances of Golza, he basically appeared as a more troublesome opponent than ordinary monsters. He only seemed weak because he encountered his wild father, the powerful Ultraman Tiga.

Oh, and as for Melba, it's real garbage.

As the only monster in the entire series to be brutally defeated by Sky Tiga, I don't want to say much, except to say "shameful" to it.

As an extremely fragile creature whose defenses could be breached by ordinary wind turbines, Melba was instantly defeated by this form, leaving no room for argument.

When the Power Type Tiga turned around and delivered a sweeping kick, I thought to myself, if that kick had landed, Melba would probably have been shattered on the spot.

Now, by fusing with Golza to form Golba, it can be considered to make up for Melba's own shortcomings. It only needs to provide flight ability and light output, while the main combat is done by Golza's part.

At this moment, Taganula is engaged in hand-to-hand combat with Gorba, and unsurprisingly, Taganula is being brutally defeated; close combat is definitely not its forte.

Seeing Taganula being whipped around like a top by Gorba, I couldn't help but facepalm: "Why are you always thinking about your melee combat? Wouldn't it be better to do long-range sniping?"

Fortunately, Deltandar flew low overhead at that moment and fired several light projectiles that hit Gorba, relieving Taganura from his predicament.

Seeing how hard they were struggling, I knew it was time for me to step in. If we relied on these two monsters alone, they would probably be worn down by Golba. The combined Golba had significantly higher defense, making the Moonlight Monster's attacks ineffective. Taganura would also struggle to deal effective damage without charging up. On the contrary, Golba's various beam attacks were extremely effective against them.

After looking around, I saw that my teammates' fighter jets were all focused on firing at Gorbah. I immediately switched my fighter jet to autopilot mode and then took out the Blue Sapphire Cone.

"GAIA!!!!"

As a golden-red light streaked across the sky, Gaia's enormous form crashed to the ground, receiving a resounding response from the earth.

Upon seeing Gaia appear, Taganura, who had been somewhat deflated, suddenly became defiant. Its minus-shaped eyes widened immediately, and it broke free from Gorba's grasp with a rabbit-like kick. Then it quickly retreated, making it look like it was trying to escape to anyone who didn't know better.

Gorba had no time to pay attention to it anymore; all its attention was now focused on the giant of light in front of it.

Hey buddy, you look familiar?

Gaia's appearance does indeed bear a striking resemblance to the ancient giants, especially to Ultraman Tiga.

Gaia's red attire reminded Golza of some unpleasant memories.

Thirty million years ago, it was ridden on by that red savage, who attacked it from both sides until it was unconscious. If it weren't for the unfortunate Melba attracting its attention and giving it a chance to dig a hole and escape, it would have left this beautiful world long ago.

As for Melba at that time, it was not so lucky. It couldn't dodge the kick that Power Type Tiga kicked when he turned around, and it was killed on the spot.

Now, upon suddenly seeing a red thing that looked like Ultraman Tiga, Gorba's heart skipped a beat.

I don't care about all that. I know exactly what Gorbah is capable of. Although this thing has some tricks up its sleeve, that's all it has. Its stats aren't ridiculously high, and it doesn't have any overpowered mechanics. I'm not afraid of it at all. The reason I was sweating earlier was because I was worried about the upcoming Super Gob and Five Emperors.

He rushed forward and swung his arm, throwing a punch at Gorba's head. After throwing the punch, I looked at my fist in surprise.

"His strength seems to have increased a little?"

Although the increase wasn't particularly large, it was definitely noticeable that it was stronger than before.

This is because when Earth created Gaia and Agul, the materials contained light left behind by the ancient giants. Therefore, Gamu was fortunate enough to inherit the ancient giants' ability to increase their combat power with their mental strength. The change in his state of mind also improved his strength.

However, such opportunities are rare and hard to come by. A change in mindset is not a goal that can be subjectively pursued; it often happens unexpectedly.

Without much hesitation, I continued to throw wild punches at Gorba's head. Although he didn't know any professional skills, who doesn't know how to swing his arm and hit the other person's face?

Especially during his special training with King Black, King Black told him that upright monsters like them with huge tails have weak points in their heads, just like humans. In fact, they are even more vulnerable than humans because having a huge tail means that they have a poor ability to maintain balance. They need a big tail to help maintain their balance. If their heads are hit, they are prone to losing their balance and being knocked down.

I kept this in mind and swung my fists mercilessly at Gorba's head. After a few punches, Gorba felt dizzy and disoriented. Sensing that something was wrong, Gorba immediately launched a full-scale counterattack.
