Monster Collector's Ultra Journey

Chapter 13 Enemy or Friend
Unable to find anything to do, Lin Yang lay on his bed bored. The news was playing on TV, and it had been a while since he had shown the photos he had taken.

I don’t know if it’s because the higher-ups are pushing too hard, but even my good boss Lina started calling to ask for Lin Yang’s photos.

Although there was only one call during this period, Lin Yang could tell that it was probably Lina's superiors who saw the traffic during this period.

After all, who can resist being tempted when there is so much money to be made at any time? So the pressure came to Lina, and she started calling to urge the payment.

But every time, Lin Yang’s words never came true. After all, it was impossible for the aliens to all listen to him and come out at some point.

Lin Yang was helpless about this. He sighed, held the remote control in his hand, and changed channels out of boredom.

At this moment, Leonicus suddenly felt a sharp pain in his senses. Lin Yang couldn't help it for a moment and subconsciously gritted his teeth, caught off guard.

"What happened, what happened just now..." Soon, the stinging feeling disappeared. Lin Yang gasped and frowned, without reacting at all.

Why would the monster sensor have such a strong reaction out of the blue? I thought some powerful monster had appeared, but it turned out to be just Red King?

That’s right, from the direction he sensed just now, Lin Yang had already guessed what was going on. That direction was the seaside.

If nothing unexpected happens, the Phantom Island that has been observed recently should finally appear, but Lin Yang can't figure it out.

Why would a Red King have such a strong reaction? The reaction just now was probably more than just sensing the monster.

"What's going on with my body... The power of Leonicus... Is it trying to tell me something..." Lin Yang looked at his hands in confusion, unable to figure it out.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Since the Monster Island has appeared, it means that monsters are coming. For Lin Yang, monsters mean income!
"Let me take a close-up of you, the little guys on Phantom Island!" After packing up the camera and preparing enough film, Lin Yang ran out of the dormitory as soon as possible.

Just wait, Phantom Island!
……

"Hey, how many days has it been since that guy who likes taking pictures showed up?" In the Titan base, the bored Mu Ting suddenly remembered the paparazzi.

"About a few days a week. There haven't been any photos leaked recently." It was Sheen who answered, sitting casually in his seat, tinkering with some small inventions.

To this day, they still have no clues about the mysterious reporter. Even when they went to the TV station to inquire, they did not get any information.

The invincible DASH team has now encountered a strong opponent among humans and is completely helpless against this elusive person.

At the beginning, everyone took this matter very seriously, but later, no one was as excited as at the beginning, because excitement was useless.

"Really? These guys only care about money and not their lives?" Thinking that he was the one who would suffer the consequences, Mu Ting felt annoyed and rubbed his face with his hands.

They're just a few photos, they're not worth much money. Is it necessary to risk your life to run to the battlefield to take pictures?
"Aren't there more important things than this?" Robot Ellie expressed her curiosity, although she didn't know whether she would be curious or not.

"What's the matter?" Captain Hijikata suddenly became curious. What was the matter that aroused the interest of Ellie, the notoriously stupid person in the team?

"King Ailei." Ai Li remained calm.

"King Ellie?" Upon hearing this name, Kaito, who was originally in deep thought, was suddenly attracted and quickly cast a curious look at Ellie.

Before, he was also wondering what was going on with that strange King Ai Lei and why he was so different from the King Ai Lei he had met before.

Logically speaking, King Ailei is just an ordinary monster. Even if he has his own consciousness, it should be the same as an animal.

What's more, a monster like King Aire, which does not belong to the earth, is impossible to appear normally. Even if it appears, it has been defeated by Max.

However, the last King Ailei not only looked different from the previous King Ailei, but also showed the wisdom to control wildness and animality.

Just like humans, they have no language ability but can still express the ideas they want to communicate.

Thinking about it now, Kaito finds it unbelievable. What on earth was going on?

Even if it really was King Ailei from some planet who turned into a spirit, it couldn't be so exaggerated, right?

"Look." After blinking her eyes, Ellie nimbly operated on the computer with her fingers and put the photos of King Aire and Regila on the screen.

"These are the monsters that have recently appeared to help us. Moreover, they are all monsters that have been defeated."

As she spoke, Ellie enlarged both photos again, showing a feature that both monsters possessed, the green interstellar peace sign.

"This is a symbol that both monsters have, so I think there may be beings on Earth that can control these two monsters."

"The existence of controlling monsters?" Upon hearing this term, Captain Hijikata was stunned for a moment, frowned, and began to think about the credibility of such a thing.

Does controlling monsters really exist? If so, wouldn't it be very dangerous for the earth?

"It's incredible. Controlling monsters? Is it possible?" Sheen found it incredible that such a fantastic thing was possible.

But Kaito had a completely different opinion. Before, he had vaguely heard what the Slan people said, such as Leonicus.

Perhaps, this is the name of the person who can control monsters.

"Based on the current situation, it is possible. These monsters are of different species. Normally, they should not have obvious common features."

Then, Ellie called up two more photos, which were compiled by Ellie herself, showing some similarities between the two monsters.

The most obvious ones are the green lines and the interstellar peace symbol, which are the basis for Ellie to suspect that the monsters are all controlled by the same person.

"These characteristics are what the two monsters have shown so far. However, so far, I don't think he is an enemy."

"Indeed, the monster before was also expressing something to Max. Although I don't know what it meant, it didn't express any malice!" Kaito agreed with this point very much.

With Ellie's explanation this time, Kaito finally understood why King Elle pointed at the sign specifically last time. It turned out that he wanted Max to remember it.

Next time when you see that sign, the other party is no longer an enemy. So that’s what it means. Now everything is clear.

"What's wrong? Captain Kaito, why do you seem so excited when talking about this?" The thoughtful Ruixi felt very surprised about Kaito's behavior.

"Ah? This..." After realizing what was happening, Kaito scratched his head embarrassedly, hesitating for a moment before he came up with a confusing excuse.

"Of course! After all, if such a person is not an enemy, then he is a friend, right? In a way, he is also an ally like Max!"

"Indeed, what Kaito said makes sense, but unfortunately, I cannot accept the idea of ​​monsters being allies or something like that." He nodded, but Bokuto chose to refuse.

He understood Kaito's thoughts. After all, those monsters had indeed helped humans, and for that, Motoya was very grateful.

However, after fighting the monsters to this extent, Mu Ting really couldn't accept that a bunch of monsters suddenly appeared to help humans.

Moreover, we don’t know whether the other party is an enemy or a friend.

At this moment, Ellie's eyes flashed, and she immediately started operating on the computer again.

"Spacetime fluctuations detected."
