Moonlight team, are you awake?

After Seggu died, the ocean that it had transformed into the pool of hellish blood gradually returned to its original state. However, most of the marine life in the Atlantic Ocean had died as a result, and the entire sea surface began to be covered with a thick layer of marine carcasses. The scene was extremely horrific. Throughout the history of the Earth, it is probably difficult to imagine any period that has caused such a large number of casualties in such a short period of time.

As the king of monsters on Earth, Renlong was the most saddened by this scene. Her mission was to protect the life on Earth from the enemy, but so many lives were lost in just one battle, which made Renlong feel extremely sad.

Her perspective differs from that of humans. While humans may feel sadness and sympathy upon seeing so many marine creatures die, they are more concerned with the ensuing collapse of the marine ecosystem and pollution. However, for Renlong, all living beings on Earth are equal. The loss of so many marine creatures is to her the same as humans witnessing the slaughter of their own kind in a nation.

I saw Renlong's disappointment in my dream. I walked up to him, patted him on the head, and said in a relaxed tone, "Watch me."

He raised the Cosmic Needle high into the air, and the golden ball of light transformed into a giant laurel wreath floating above the ocean. Then, the laurel wreath emitted a red light, illuminating the dead marine life below. In just a few seconds, a miraculous scene unfolded: the marine life illuminated by the laurel wreath began to come back to life one by one, and were enveloped in red light and sent back to the depths where they originally lived. Huge whales, octopuses, and other creatures were enveloped in red light and sent back to the deep sea, while fish and shrimp in the shallow sea began to swim back into the water.

This is the Ultra Laurel Wreath used by Father of Ultra, which can revive ordinary lives that have died. In the series, it was used to revive a girl who was killed by the monster Linton, but it seems to be a one-time use item.

The Cosmic Needle simulates the function of items. Although it cannot completely imitate legendary items, its advantage is that it can be reused even though the items were originally disposable.

Even if monsters cause massive destruction in the city and kill many people, I can use the Ultra Laurel Crown to revive all the dead.

Of course, if you can't win the final battle, then being resurrected is essentially a suspended death sentence.

This scene shocked everyone. Although there are beings like the Sam aliens in the universe who can resurrect life, this is the first time in history that life has been resurrected on such a large scale and seemingly without any cost.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone fully realized that Gaia's evolution into the Supreme Form was completely different from its previous evolution into the V2 Form. The V2 Form merely increased power, while the Supreme Form represented a leap in the level of life. After evolving, Gaia not only gained powerful combat abilities but also possessed a wide variety of superpowers, making it easy to accomplish many incredible things.

"Is this the power of the Earth...?" Renlong stared blankly at Womeng. Even though he knew that he had obtained the power of the Earth, which far surpassed the ordinary light of the earth and ocean, it was still beyond his imagination to be able to do such an incredible thing.

If such a power of Earth had existed back then, the casualties over the past 30 million years wouldn't have been so heavy.

However, it's quite normal that Earth didn't unleash its power early on. While Earth's power is powerful, it also carries immense risks. It's like taking out your home's giant crystal to fight. Although it's incredibly durable and deals high damage, if it gets killed for some reason, it won't matter if all the remaining Earth monsters survive. Earth will directly decline and become a dead star, and all life on Earth will slowly die afterward.

Having obtained the power of the Earth, Imu is now under immense pressure. Bearing the power of the Earth, he can no longer act as he did before, thinking of exploding when he couldn't win. Before, he could just explode, but now, if he did, it would be no different from wiping out the entire team.

Chapter 194 The Happy Old Man

After the battle with Seggu ended, I had only rested for a few minutes when I received another message: "Monster number 0357 has appeared in Hawaii."

This so-called number 0357 refers to the 357th monster recorded since 1966. I remember that the monster corresponding to the number 0357 is the ancient monster Garula, which first appeared in 2020, which is three years ago.

Garula was the first ancient monster in the Defense Force's archives. After emerging from the ground, it caused considerable damage to humanity because it was incredibly tough and its shell was extremely hard. The Defense Force's missiles had little effect on it. Later, the Defense Force used liquid nitrogen tactics to successfully break through its hard shell and finally destroyed it.

Logically speaking, Garula is no longer a threat to the current defense forces. Three years ago, the defense forces did not have such advanced weapons. Now, their weapons have been upgraded to the Victory Flying Swallow EX-J, and the first-generation Magus cannon has gradually entered mass production. Garula could not possibly withstand the current firepower of the defense forces.

But the sudden appearance of Garula at this critical juncture is clearly abnormal. In fact, after eliminating Golza and Melba more than half a month ago, the ancient monsters have been quiet for a while. Rather, the ancient monsters were not very active in the original work.

To be on the safe side, I dreamt of Renlong and Kagachi, who had transformed into their life-size forms, and inquired about the ancient times.

"How strong are the ancient monsters?" I asked curiously.

Currently, his impression of the ancient monsters is basically limited to Golza and Melba, which he defeated during the V1 era, and the story Tiga once mentioned about how he used his powerful electric punch to easily defeat ordinary Golza. Judging from these two incidents, the ancient monsters should not be very strong. However, many monsters in the Quantum Realm were killed by the ancient monsters, including two Tiguris, one Shazak, and one King Savors.

Clearly, there must be some special individuals among the ancient monsters.

Upon hearing my dream mention the ancient monsters, Renlong couldn't help but recall the days when she fought against the evil god. A hint of lingering fear appeared in her eyes: "Are you referring to those ancient monsters created by the evil god?"

"Yes, that guy's name is Gatanothor."

How do you know its name?

"That's what Earth told me," I said confidently, shifting the blame to Earth.

"This..." Renlong was clearly a little skeptical, but she couldn't verify it, so she could only choose to believe Imu. Then she recounted her experiences in the ancient times: "The first batch of ancient monsters were indeed very weak. Even Red King and Sadra could easily handle them."

"However, as time went by, the darkness emanating from the evil god grew stronger and stronger, and the ancient monsters born from this darkness also became more and more powerful. Among them, some individuals even became troublesome to me, and many of my companions died in the process of fighting against them."

"But that's not the most important thing. The most important issue is that we've always suspected that the increasing darkness was a sign of the awakening of the evil god. If we hadn't acted quickly back then, the enemy getting stronger would have been a minor issue; the most serious problem would have been that the evil god Gatanothor might have awakened 3000 million years ago, and then things would have been irreversible."

"That's why we spared no expense to create R'lyeh, which isolates us from the darkness, and sealed the sleeping Gatanothor inside it, thus greatly extending the time it would take for him to awaken."

After listening to Renlong's explanation, I pondered: "So, we can judge the progress of the evil god's awakening by the strength of the ancient monsters? If the ancient monsters suddenly become very strong, it means that the evil god is about to awaken?"

"That's very likely the case." Renlong nodded.

"Then I should go and see where Garula appeared." I never intended to stand idly by, and now it's even more necessary to go to the scene to test Garula's strength and thus judge the progress of Gatanothor's awakening.

A flash of red and blue light appeared on my body, and I automatically transformed into Ultraman Gaia. After obtaining the power of Earth, I had transformed from a human into the real Gaia. Even without using the Blue Sapphire Cone, I could still transform into Gaia.

The most direct manifestation of this change is that he can now move freely like a real Ultraman. Previously, Ultraman couldn't stay away from Earth for too long. If he stayed away from Earth for an extended period, his light would be exhausted and he would revert to being an ordinary human. Now, however, he can travel freely between stars and absorb energy from stars to replenish himself, just like a normal Ultraman.

Furthermore, if I dream dies, or disappears from the universe, or has the thought of abandoning Earth, then his connection with Earth will be severed. He can still use Gaia's power as usual, but Earth will gradually wither away, because all of Earth's power is now with me dream.

As long as my dream lives on and still identifies itself as an Earth life form in my heart, then even if he goes to a very distant galaxy, his connection with Earth will still exist, and Earth will not be affected in any way.

In an instant, I transformed into Gaia and used teleportation to arrive in Hawaii. At that moment, Garula, who had just emerged from the Hawaiian beach, was looking around. Unlike the ancient monsters that had appeared before, this time Garula did not rush to destroy its surroundings. Instead, it looked around with its eyes that clearly showed some intelligence, as if it were observing this world 3000 million years in the future.

Gamu teleported to the scene and instantly grew to gigantic size. The moment Garurus saw Gamu, it immediately entered battle mode.

The reason is simple: Garula's appearance is too similar to that of the ancient giants, especially its iconic eyes and timer, which are standard features unique to the ancient giants. As an ancient monster, Garula's hostility towards the ancient giants is beyond doubt.

I didn't rush to reveal my Supreme Form. I hadn't forgotten that the Sphia Lifeform and the Annihilation Summoning Entity were secretly watching me. If I used my Supreme Form too frequently, they would definitely collect my combat data and then target me.

But the supreme form of my dream is powerful not only because of the supreme form itself.

A blue-purple light flashed across my body, and the next second my body underwent a huge change, transforming from Gaia V2 into Composite Ultraman Tiga.

Garula, who was not far away, was immediately shocked. Tiga's figure was all too familiar to the ancient monsters. Back then, that guy was the Golza killing machine, and he almost single-handedly wiped out the entire Golza.

Having obtained the power of Earth, Gamu can not only use the abilities of past warriors in the quantum space, but he can also directly transform into their forms and freely use their abilities, with the values ​​being equal to the values ​​of Gamu's transformed form.

For example, if my dream transforms into Composite Tiga in its Supreme Form, then the Composite Tiga he creates will have the same stats as Supreme Gaia.

Based on this, I can also use the Old Man's Happy Type in my dream.

He crossed his hands in front of his forehead, and the crystal on his forehead emitted a red light. With the sound of "en...ha!", I dream switched to the Power Type, and my whole body turned red, and my body became extremely strong.

Chapter 195 Your little brother was pretty good, but he's mine now.

The red-haired Superman Dig is a nightmare memory for any ancient monster.

The moment my dream transformed into Power Type Tiga, Garula instinctively took a step back, just like Golza. However, its fear wasn't as intense as Golza's, since Garula hadn't been massacred by the "Red Demon" like Golza had in the ancient times.

"Is this the power of the Power Type? No wonder Daigo likes to use it so much." This is the first time that I have personally transformed into Power Type Tiga. I can clearly feel that my strength and physical defense have been greatly enhanced. This enhancement even exceeds the increase when V1 becomes V2. However, the drawback is that it is only limited to strength and physical defense. Speed ​​and superpowers have not increased accordingly. In fact, my speed has even decreased a lot.

However, since the base stats of Gamu's Supreme Form are already very high, even with the speed reduction, it is still faster than in V2 Form, not to mention that the opponent is Garula, who is also a heavy melee monster.

Briefly shocked, Garula quickly regained its composure and fired an orange destructive beam from its head at Gamu. In response to the attack, Gamu instinctively stretched out his hands, and Ultra Barrier of Power Type Tiga automatically unfolded on his hands, easily blocking Garula's attack just like it had blocked the combined attack of Golza and Melba in the first episode.

When its first attack failed, Garula immediately changed tactics, suddenly turning its body and whipping its tail, covered in hard armor, at Gamu like a steel whip. This was Garula's signature move, the "Tail Strike," which, if caught off guard, would be enough to make an Ultra Warrior feel pain for a while.

But this level of attack posed no threat to Gamu now. He easily caught Garurus's attack, then grabbed Garurus's tail and flung it away. Garurus's massive body crashed heavily onto the beach.

Garula's resilience is much better than I imagined. Even when I threw it away in this state, it could quickly get up and continue fighting.

Gamu rushed forward and tentatively punched Garuruin in the chest. The Supreme Punch Power, amplified several times over, sent Garuruin flying backward and rolling on the ground. But after throwing the punch, Gamu looked down at his fist. Judging from the recoil and Garuruin's reaction after being hit, this Garuruin was indeed much stronger than the one that appeared in 2020.

The Garula in 2020 could only ignore the defense force's conventional attacks. After the defense force used liquid nitrogen tactics, they successfully destroyed its hard shell and took it out.

If he only had that level of defense, he would have been unable to get up or even died on the spot when he was thrown away by Gamu. After being punched by Gamu, he would have had no chance of surviving and would have exploded in mid-air.

However, the Garula in front of us only showed signs of injury after being hit twice. After being punched and sent flying, it was still able to stagger and try to get up. This physical defense performance far exceeded that of previous individual Garulas. If Gamu had not already obtained the Supreme Form, this monster might have been able to fight Gamu, who was only V2 at the time, for a while.

"It seems that the evil god is indeed about to revive, and the power of the ancient monsters has increased a lot."

Garula has now been upgraded to V2 level, which is very close to the level of the ancient monsters mentioned by Renlong. Furthermore, Gatanothor is currently sealed in the R'lyeh Ruins, which can isolate darkness. If an ancient monster can be upgraded even with the protection of the ruins, it means that the darkness inside the ruins has reached the point where it has begun to leak out, and the situation is probably more serious than imagined.

As I was pondering this, Garula had already managed to get up with difficulty. Judging from its swaying posture, many of its bones must have been broken. It was a miracle that it could stand up at all.

I glanced at it and said, "It's pretty tough. Come help me fill in the lines."

He summoned the Cosmic Needle and mimicked the shape of a Dark Spark in his hand. Then he pointed the Dark Spark at Garula: "Gatarina, your little brother is quite good, but he's mine now!"

Dark sparks erupted, engulfing the already powerless Garula and turning him into a spark doll on the spot.

When I raised my hand, the Spark Doll automatically flew into his palm. If he wanted, he could use the Dark Spark to activate the Spark Doll and transform it into Garula's appearance.

With a thought, the Dark Spark in his hand transformed into a Dark Ring. He then aimed the Dark Ring at Garula's Spark Doll, which instantly turned into a ball of red light that passed through the Dark Ring and became a Garula Monster Card.

"Great, it worked." Seeing that the transformation process could actually be achieved, I breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, all non-BOSS level enemies that appear later can be transformed into monster cards after being defeated. Next time I encounter a monster like Seggu that can summon minions, I won't be afraid. The opponent summoning minions is just like handing them a free kill.

I dreamt of putting away the monster cards, then used the Cosmic Needle to simulate the Ultra Laurel Crown and tossed it into the air. The red light of the Ultra Laurel Crown instantly illuminated the earth, and one by one, the people on the beach who had died because of Garula's sudden appearance came back to life.

Many people who were originally holding corpses or even dismembered bodies and weeping were stunned as the corpses and dismembered bodies were restored to their original state before their eyes. Then, the people who had been dead regained their heartbeats and breathing, and slowly opened their eyes in front of them.

This scene of death and resurrection is quite shocking to mankind. Death is the greatest fear in the human heart, and many people believe in religion in order to overcome this fear. However, this fear has been overcome very abruptly today - Gaia actually has the ability to bring people back to life.

At this moment, exclamations of "Oh my god" echoed across the vast Hawaiian beach. At first, they were just casual remarks of surprise, but gradually, the nature of this catchphrase changed, because people began to realize that this giant, who possessed the power to move heaven and earth and could bring people back to life, seemed to fit people's definition of a god.

I realized something was wrong, so I bent down and, for the first time ever, used my Ultraman powers to communicate with the humans present: "I am not a god, and my power did not come out of thin air. It is because of the support of you and many partners that I have gradually become stronger, just like how humans, through the efforts of many people, have gradually gained the power to go to heaven and earth from the primitive era."

I'm not being modest when I say this. Over the years, he has received support from people in almost every battle, which has genuinely strengthened his power. It can be said that humanity has indeed given him considerable support all along.

He does not want humans to worship Ultraman as a god. Humans and Ultraman should be partners who move forward together. There should never be a situation where one side depends on the other or worships the other as a god, otherwise the relationship will be corrupted.

Chapter 196 Chimaira

My dream's words had a remarkable effect, and the crowd quickly calmed down from their previous frenzy. Of course, this was not because my dream's words had any magical power, but because since the period of frequent monster occurrences began, the government had been paying great attention to the ideological work of the people in order to prevent panic, mutiny, or cult-like behavior among the people.

This policy was popularized worldwide with the strong support and promotion of Director Sawai, but he was not the first person to implement such a policy.

In 1966, the space monster Bemular landed on Earth, turning the first page of a history of frequent monster occurrences.

Unlike the stability of today, people on Earth at that time were truly plunged into immense panic. This was because it was during the Cold War, with the two poles of human civilization locked in a fierce confrontation. People around the world were already living under nuclear fear, and the sudden surge in monster outbreaks further devastated their already anxious hearts.

Not only ordinary people, but even politicians were generally pessimistic. Many people felt that this might be the end of humanity.

Soichiro Sawai, who was just 30 years old at the time, was no exception. Sawai was just beginning to show his talent in politics. He rose rapidly in postwar Japanese politics with his excellent personal abilities and became the prime minister's private secretary.

Just as Sawai was on the rise in his life, he was suddenly struck by the apocalyptic blow of a period of frequent monster outbreaks. For a long time, he was lost and confused. He was not only confused about his own future, but more confused about the future of humanity. He did not want to believe that the future of humanity would come to an end.

But the atmosphere at that time was so oppressive and hopeless. The shadow of doomsday theory was everywhere around him, and even the executives he interacted with were always sighing. This atmosphere greatly affected Sawai.

Until the end of the year, he was ordered to accompany the Prime Minister on a visit to another country to discuss transnational cooperation plans for the frequent monster incidents.

There, he witnessed a different atmosphere. Despite the fact that the place had been attacked by monsters many times, the people there had a spirit of fighting to the death, and even their leaders were no exception. They did not seem very worried, but rather had a belief that they would win.

Sawai didn't understand why, but he felt that he might find the answer he was looking for here, so he secretly asked to see the other person. To his surprise, the other person gladly received him.

He talked with the other party all night, and what shocked him was that the other party had already made long-term plans for the coming period of frequent monster outbreaks in such a short time.

"To fight these demons and monsters, the bravery and wisdom of one or two people are not enough. Only with the sincere and enthusiastic support of people all over the world can we win!"

When the word "victory" came out of the other person's mouth, Sawai was incredulous: "You mean, we still have a chance to win?"

"Of course there are, definitely!" Sawai was infected by the other person's optimistic smile: "As long as we unite closely with the people, there is no difficulty in this world that cannot be overcome!"

The other party was not simply a blind optimist. He had a long-term plan and strategy for dealing with the frequent monster outbreaks. Many of his ideas were very bold and even unbelievable to Sawai at the time. As if he had a premonition about the future changes of the world, the other party expressed to Sawai that humanity would definitely unite and unleash infinite power to fight the monsters for ten, fifty, or even a hundred years.

At the time, Sawai thought this optimistic view might not come true, but the world later developed as the other party had said. After a period of panic, humanity began to calm down, and various countries launched many cooperation plans. Humanity's defense forces began to take shape, the first generation of monster-destroying fighters, Vito, was manufactured, and a defense team composed of elites from various countries was established.

Over the next sixty years, the defense force has passed down its legacy from generation to generation, and the fighter jets have gradually evolved from the initial Vito to the later Shin'yō, Airo, and even the Hien, as well as the most advanced EX-J.

Sawai rose through the ranks from his initial position as the Prime Minister's secretary, gradually shining in the cause of Earth Defense, eventually becoming the Director-General. During this process, he also received support from Yoshioka, and the two relied on each other to build the situation they have today.

Sawai never forgot that conversation. Although the other person was long gone, the world's development over the next sixty years did not exceed his expectations. Sawai also firmly remembered the other person's teachings: "Always safeguard the interests of the people and always do a good job in the ideological construction of the people," which ultimately shaped the current environment.

Thanks to this special environment, people did not worship Ultraman as a god, but regarded each other as their most steadfast partners and comrades.

I stood up in my dream, and just as I breathed a sigh of relief, I suddenly heard the voice of the Mefilas alien in my ear: "Gaia, please come to Venus to provide support as soon as possible! A terrible guy is coming!"

"What's going on?" My heart skipped a beat.

"Half an hour ago, we observed an unidentified life form flying towards Earth at full speed, so we intercepted it in Venus's orbit. We never expected that this monster flying towards us would be the Chimaira..."

"Chimaira? Wait, you didn't use a human wave tactic against it, did you?" I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine.

"Because the incident happened so suddenly, there wasn't enough time to recruit other soldiers. The only aliens who could respond the fastest were the Barossa Legion, so..."

What happened next, I seemed to have already guessed in my dream.

Chimaira is probably one of the monsters that best counters line-filling tactics because it has a very abnormal special skill: the Monster Transformation Ray. With this ability, it can freely transform any life form into a large monster under its control, and the monsters it transforms are not weaklings, but rather quite powerful.

In the original work, Chimaira mutated UGM's Director Itō and an octopus from the ocean into the monsters Labus and Daron, respectively. These two monsters almost caused Eddie to suffer a defeat. In the end, Eddie barely escaped danger because Director Itō's consciousness temporarily awakened and backstabbed Daron.

In the original work, Chimaira only created two mutated monsters, but that was obviously due to the production team's budget constraints, making it impossible to actually produce a large number of suits. However, there are no such real-world factors affecting this situation. Faced with Barossa's massive army of line-fillers, Chimaira's monster transformation beam could probably create an entire monster legion.

"You should avoid its sharp edge and try your best not to fight it. I'm on my way to you!"

At this moment, I felt a little fortunate. If Chimaira had arrived half a day earlier, I would have been in real trouble. If I had faced Chimaira in V2 form, the monsters she created would have been enough to give me a hard time, not to mention Chimaira herself.

Without saying a word, he took out the Dark Spark, turned around and flew towards Venus.

Chapter 197 Qimaila: Holy crap, awesome!

At this very moment, on the battlefield of Venus, Chimaira has gone completely berserk.
