Dark Tiga, what are you doing?

Chapter 174 When Darkness Cloaked in Espi Meets Gua
"Say my name louder!"

"Dharam!"

Under Darram's strong efforts, Hori reluctantly shouted out the name of Ultraman after his transformation.

After Hori and Ultraman achieved unity, Hori, like Shinjo, felt the power of Ultraman.

For the first time, I felt there was an insurmountable gap between humanity and Ultraman. In the past, Horii believed that although Ultraman was powerful, they were just an alien civilization that was many years ahead of humanity.

But after he truly became Ultraman, he realized that even through generations of evolution, humanity might never reach the level of the Giant of Light, because this power was completely beyond the realm of the mundane. He felt an immense power within him, as if he could easily destroy an entire civilization. Of course, this was based on the premise that an ordinary civilization existed without powerful monsters or Ultraman protecting it.

Even so, it's still quite terrifying.

Hori couldn't fathom how the universe could give birth to beings like Ultraman, who were completely beyond the realm of ordinary life. He had always thought humans were the chosen ones, possessing brilliant minds despite their physical frailties, something Hori was very proud of. His intellect was also exceptionally sharp within the GUTS team.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been selected for TPC and joined the Victory Team.

He also has connections with many renowned PhDs in academia, many of whom admire him and others whom he admires, but overall they can be considered influential figures in the global scientific community.

Recently, however, a new Alchemy Star has emerged, a place that gathers rare talents from all over the country in various fields. This is the first time Horii has witnessed such brilliant minds among ordinary people. Moreover, Horii has to admire the achievements of the two leaders of Alchemy Star, Takayama Gamu and Fujimiya Hiroya, after only a brief glance.

That's really impressive.

Why weren't these two discovered and invited by the TPC to join its paranormal investigation organization?

Logically speaking, their achievements certainly qualify them to join TPC. It seems that when TPC recruited talents from all over the world, there were bound to be some overlooked geniuses. Alchemy Star then brought these geniuses together again. Their scientific research capabilities are in no way inferior to TPC's research department.

Wisdom is often the true essence of things.

Before becoming Ultraman, Horii always thought that being able to fight was a pretty good thing.

However, in addition to being good at fighting, one must also possess wisdom.

Otherwise, what difference would there be between them and barbarians?

Now that he has become Ultraman, Horii feels that his original conclusion was made too hastily.

Having superpowers might be a pretty good thing.

Looking at the phantom of Gua from the perspective of Darram, Horii did not sense that domineering power from the other party.

Even if the other party tries to control him, Hori feels that he can break free at will and move freely without restraint. This is the difference between Ultraman and humans.

To explain how to eliminate the ancient shadow.

How can we use superintelligence to subdue enemies that humans cannot defeat?

If Hori were to use his brilliant mind to think about it, the conclusion he could reach would be that it was time to unleash his super power.

Using the power of Ultraman that he just obtained, he will destroy the hateful enemy in front of him.

May those who have been harmed by this guy be saved.

With Ultraman's abilities and power.

It is absolutely possible to do this with ease.

For the first time, Hori felt that he didn't need to use his brain; he only needed to use his super strength.

After having this idea, Digjing quickly shook his head.

No.

How could I, a scientist in the research department, have such thoughts? Obsession with power is a terrible thing, for power is endless.

Once you become addicted to it, it can easily become the beginning of disaster. You must use your wisdom wisely, even if you possess superhuman strength. Hori silently warned himself before facing Koa Kyonkage.

"Now it's your turn to be in trouble," Darram said, shaking his hand.

I felt as if I had brute strength and could do anything.

Facing the Gua formed from the power of the dead, Darram launched a fierce attack, taking on the form of a giant. The Gua phantom was also surprised that the chubby boy it had just regarded as an ant had undergone a complete transformation in an instant, becoming one with the red Ultraman who had suddenly appeared.

Instantly, he possessed the power of Ultraman.

Seeing that the other party had boldly launched an attack after obtaining this power, Gua Xuying couldn't help but feel annoyed.

So what if he becomes Ultraman?

Even in the past, he never fell behind when facing many Ultramen, and even chased after a group of Ultramen to fight.

Now that the other party has only transformed into an Ultraman, they dare to be so presumptuous towards him, they simply don't take him seriously.

Think about this.

Gua's phantom directly mobilized the undead power of the entire area and transferred it to his own body, making his phantom solidify again.

The power within his body surged, making him even stronger.

Then Gua launched an attack on Dalam.

Both of them threw a punch at each other.

The blast wave overturned the surrounding streetlights and shattered the fire hydrants, from which bursts of water sprayed continuously.

Darram didn't feel like he was at a disadvantage. On the contrary, he felt that Gua's power was so weak. Compared to when Gua was chasing him when he was a new human, he felt that if he continued to fight, he could completely defeat Gua.

Is this the power of Darram, the mighty warrior?

Such immense brute force.

As a brilliant researcher within TPC, Juejing couldn't help but silently admire him.

Superpowers can be really useful sometimes.

You don't need to use your brain at all; there's no complicated process. You just use it and solve the problem.

"Kid, I can feel the emotions in your heart." After they became one, they could sense each other's inner emotions.

The strong warrior noticed the well-digging man's admiration and proudly stepped forward as well.

"Cough cough..." Digging well coughed dryly.

He seemed to be trying to hide his admiration for power.

Then, he ignored Darram.

Instead, they focused intently on facing the enemy before them.

"If you've got the guts, then wipe me out completely. Weren't you so arrogant just now? Chasing me around and beating me up. Can you still do that?" Hori taunted wildly.

His real reason for provoking them was that he noticed the other party was constantly absorbing the undead power of this area, so that those humans who were affected by the undead power and became undead could be saved.

Without the influence of necromancy, they could easily escape that nightmare state.

They continued to live as humans.

Seeing this, Digjing decided to have the other party mobilize all the undead power of the entire area onto himself without holding back.

If he then eliminates them all in one fell swoop, it will save him a lot of trouble.

As Horii had predicted, Gua indeed gathered all the undead power of the area onto his body and then engaged him in a fierce battle. Both fought in human form within the hidden streets. The battle was fought with great caution. Although Horii lacked combat experience after becoming an Ultra Warrior, he used his intelligence to carefully control the extent of the damage to prevent unnecessary casualties.

Just like in New City, if the battle continues like this, the two members of the winning team will definitely be the ultimate victors. Gu Aqiang is strong, but his phantom is still too weak when facing a dark giant at his peak, not to mention that the dark giant is personally overseeing the battle.

If his human form can't win, he'll log in and fight for him.

This is also where the Dark Giants lack martial ethics; the Light Giants, unable to defeat them, won't use their consciousness to fight for them, but rather offer encouragement and moral support.

However, if the Dark Giant cannot be defeated, it will directly send its own consciousness into the fight.

We must completely annihilate the enemy and give them absolutely no chance to cause trouble.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be in line with the style of the Dark Giants. Having dominated the ancient era for so long, how could they allow themselves to suffer setbacks in the present-day human society, which is now far removed from the ancient era? Both Darram and Hitler held this view, as did Camilla.

In their two regions, they became dark giants, overwhelming Gua.

In another area, Daigo and Hibino Mirai were also attacked by Gua, and as Ultra Warriors, they naturally transformed into Giants of Light.

Then he prepared the ancient shadow.

They were seasoned veterans with immense power, so they were naturally not defeated by this ancient phantom. They easily destroyed the phantom, completely eradicated the source of the ancient power, and restored freedom to the people of that area.

……

the other side.

While they were clearing away the undead energy in the area, the remaining creatures weren't idle either. They all set off to search for the true form of Gua across the world, knowing that this disaster would never be resolved unless the true form was destroyed. Therefore, they had to find the enemy as quickly as possible and deliver a fatal blow.

Kirino Makio transforms into Ultraman Dyna, maximizing his superpowers and using his superpower form to continuously search for the place where the power of the Gua spirits is most concentrated.

Such a targeted search.

Dyna completed the search in a very short time.

However, to his dismay, he did not detect the presence of Gua Benzun on Earth.

Does that mean that Gua Benzun is actually in another place?

Perhaps it was outside Earth, such as on Mars or the Moon. Thinking of this, Dyna decisively looked into outer space, constantly scanning the situation there with his Ultra Eye. However, given how powerful Gua was, if he wanted to hide, Dyna would have a hard time finding him in a short time.

However, Dyna was certain that there was no trace of the existence of the ancient Abenza on Earth.

In this way, Dyna passed this message on to the other Ultramen, instructing them to shift their search to other places, such as subspace, alternate dimensions, the moon outside Earth, and so on.

"Senior, where do you think Gua might be hiding?" After receiving Dyna's message, Ultraman Ace, transformed from Tenryukai and Suzuki Ame, abandoned their search on Earth and turned their attention to areas outside the planet. They searched continuously around the entire Earth.

Both Seven and Jack are going to the moon.

Ace, transformed by Hokuto Seiji, and the First Generation went to Mars.

In short, everyone had clear goals and responsibilities, and no one was idle.

They even expanded their search to the entire Milky Way galaxy, continuing their search within it.

This task was like finding a needle in a haystack, extremely difficult. But so what? Since the enemy had already invaded, they couldn't just sit idly by; they had to find the enemy and eliminate them.

To ensure they weren't ambushed by Gua while searching for him in pairs, they contacted each other periodically to ensure their teammate wasn't attacked.

Even if they lose contact, they will still know that Gua has arrived. They can search for him based on the direction their teammates have gone to investigate, and in this way, they can easily find him.

However, the first group of Guana members they encounter may be in danger.

But for the Ultra Warriors, which battle is without risk? They all went from weak to strong, experiencing life-or-death battles time and time again, before finally gaining their current strength.

They've long been accustomed to danger and don't even consider it a threat. They wouldn't even make a move if there wasn't danger.

Things that are not dangerous should naturally be left to humans to solve themselves. After all, the principle of Ultraman is to avoid interfering with the development of Earth's civilization and let humans evolve on their own.

Otherwise, if they were to guide human evolution, their Land of Light might very well go astray in their repeated attempts to guide it.

Each planet's civilization must develop on its own to create its own unique culture. If a planet were to lead its development under the guidance of its own Kingdom of Light, it would ultimately become like its own Kingdom of Light. Consequently, the entire universe would lose its diversity of civilizations and its cosmic diversity.

In this case, what is the difference between civilizations and puppets?

……

While we searched diligently, Tian Liuhai also pondered the possibility of Gua hiding. As Dyna said, if he wasn't on Earth, he was likely somewhere else. However, he wasn't sure exactly where, since it was Gua's own doing. How could he possibly know? All they could do was search silently and try their luck, hoping to find him.

Tian Liuhai didn't think they were so lucky, or so unlucky, to encounter Gu Aben Zun.

"Since we're here, let's make the best of it." Tian Liuhai said, "We're searching closer to Earth, in a group with Dyna. One of us is a super-powered warrior, and the other is the Showa Emperor. Maybe we'll be the first to find Gua."

When he said these words, Tian Liuhai didn't really think they would encounter Gu A.

However, Suzuki Yu didn't think that way. On the contrary, she felt that if they really encountered Gua, the most important thing for them to do next was to pass on the information and then figure out how to deal with Gua.

The two searched and chatted at the same time.

Not long after.

Dyna suddenly stopped moving. His previously widespread psychic and telekinetic abilities were now withdrawn.

Focus on one direction in front of you.

"What?" Ace asked in surprise.

Then look in the direction where Dyna's telekinesis is located.

There was nothing empty there, but what made Dyna so alert was certainly not just a simple emptiness.

Ace instantly activated his Ultra Eye, and a large amount of light power surged towards the Ultra Eye. Under the observation of the Ultra Eye, Ace did notice that there was a subtle spatial fluctuation in the seemingly empty place in front of him, which proved that there must be something in there.

The two exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's thoughts; they had very likely encountered Gua Benzun.

Tian Liuhai was puzzled.

What a coincidence!

Of course, it may not necessarily be the original Gua.

The two Olympic teams are exploring together.

Using their Ultraman powers, they worked together to tear open the opening.

Before entering, they sent out information about their discoveries using Ultra Signature. Then they entered the space together, and the opening they had just created was instantly sewn up.

Within this space, they sensed a dense necromantic energy. Although they did not see the original Gua, they were fairly certain that this was the original Gua's hiding place.

Tian Liuhai's anxiety was finally relieved.

After all, there is no escape.

Unexpectedly, they were the ones who ran into Gua first.

Looks like I'm going to be busy again.

Born to work for someone else.

"Senior, be careful." Suzuki Yu said solemnly.

The three siblings, Juda and his sister, are already incredibly powerful. How strong would a group of the three of them be?

Suzuki Yu dared not think about it.

Dyna kept spreading his superpowers, trying to find the other party, but just as he discovered something was wrong, his entire body was swallowed up by the power of the dead in the next second, without even having time to make a sound.

Ace suddenly turned around to look.

Dyna was just behind him.

There wasn't even a trace of it left.

Okay.

Gua made his move.

Ace held his breath, mobilized all the light power in his body, and prepared for battle.
