Ultraman: Invincible from Saving Tiga.

Chapter 558 String Man, I order you to kill the Rainbow Serpent God.

Having made up his mind, Professor Yokomine no longer hesitated.

He straightened his back again and raised his left arm, which was marked with a snake.

The seven-colored iron ring on his wrist burst forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling light.

He closed his eyes and began to chant an ancient and obscure prayer.

The sound seemed to come from the distant ancient times, carrying a strange rhythm that echoed in the air.

He is calling out.

Summoning the ancient deity slumbering deep within the roots of the world (which is actually the Aokigahara Forest of Fuji), Nijikaga.

He was using his own strength to try to calm the raging fury of nature that was about to awaken.

The light grew brighter and brighter, almost enveloping the small garden in a rainbow of colors.

Risa watched this scene nervously, her little hands tightly gripping the hem of her clothes.

however……

A minute passed.

Five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

Apart from the continued glow on Professor Yokomine's arm, nothing else happened around him.

There was no divine pressure, no unusual phenomenon of the world changing color, and not even the slightest response.

Deathly silence.

The sweat on Professor Yokomine's face began to trickle down.

He opened his eyes, looked at his arm in disbelief, and tried to recite the prayer again.

As a result, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, with no news coming from anywhere.

"No...no response?"

He froze, completely stunned, his expression shifting from confusion to anxiety, and finally to utter panic.

"How could... how could there be no response?!"

Lin Yu stood aside, watching this scene, and the corner of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

He had a million complaints he wanted to vent.

what the hell……

So you're only responsible for killing, not for burying, huh?!

So all you're responsible for is waking it up, and then you can't put it back down?!

It seems that the Rainbow Serpent God has awakened and blocked the "awakener," or is unable to interfere with the other party at all, and cannot make it fall back asleep!

Now we have a god who could go berserk at any moment, an uncontrollable will of the earth, and a helpless "god's spokesperson".

Lin Yu sighed deeply, feeling his head start to ache again.

He rubbed his temples, a look of utter despair on his face.

"It seems the task of communicating with the gods of this Earth..."

"I'll have to do it."

At this moment, Lin Yu sensed footsteps approaching. After a moment's thought, he immediately revealed a look of "Oh, it's you."

Recently, Gento Hiruma has been in a pretty good mood.

Since the peaceful resolution of the V99 incident, Earth seems to have entered a rare vacation period.

There were no war machines or monsters falling from the sky, no emergency sirens, and he could even leave work on time and go home to have a hot dinner with his wife and children.

As a seasoned office worker, this kind of life is simply like paradise.

Today, he even took a day off, which was quite extravagant.

"teacher?"

A voice, tinged with uncertainty yet also mixed with surprise, came from not far away.

Lin Yu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man wearing a blue-green maintenance worker's uniform, a sun hat, and carrying a fishing tackle box and fishing rod. He was standing at the entrance of the garden he had "created" and looking at them in astonishment.

Biruji Kento.

Before Lin Yu could say anything, Xuanren had already walked over quickly, his face showing even greater surprise.

"It really is you, Professor Yokomine!"

He first bowed respectfully to Professor Yokomine, then his gaze fell on Lin Yu beside him, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Mr. Lin Yu? You're back?!"

His gaze then settled on Professor Yokomine's left eye, which was bruised and swollen like a bun.

The expression on Gento's face instantly became incredibly interesting.

He opened his mouth, wanting to ask, but then felt it was inappropriate and forced himself to swallow it back. However, the burning gossip in his eyes was impossible to hide.

"Teacher, what's wrong with your eyes...?"

"It fell."

Professor Yokomine stiffened his neck, his face stubborn, as if he wanted to use the hardness of his voice to prove the truth of his words.

"I slipped and hit my face on the ground."

As Xianren looked at the soft, thick grass at his teacher's feet, and then at the textbook-perfect boxing wound, his lips twitched involuntarily.

I'm the captain of SKARD.

I fight monsters hand-to-hand every day; I've seen all kinds of injuries.

If your injury had been caused by hitting the ground, I would have eaten this fishing rod on the spot.

He suppressed a laugh and said in a very professional tone, "I see. Then you must be careful, teacher. This wound looks quite deep. It's best to apply ice when you get back, and then apply heat after 24 hours to promote blood circulation and remove bruising."

Professor Yokomine blushed, feeling that he had been subtly insulted by this student. He could only grunt, turn his head away, and remain silent.

Lin Yu, standing to the side, almost lost his composure as he watched the strange, undercurrent between the teacher and student.

He cleared his throat, breaking the awkward silence: "Captain Stringman, long time no see. Have a day off today?"

"Ah, yes." Gento snapped out of his reverie and quickly replied, "I haven't had much to do lately, so I thought I'd come out fishing to relax. I didn't expect to run into you and teacher here."

He looked around at the vibrant scene, so unlike anything one would expect from an industrial area, and his eyes were filled with amazement.

"When did this place become like this? I remember the last time I came here, it was still a ruin."

"Perhaps it's Earth's self-purification," Lin Yu casually made up.

The string player nodded thoughtfully, without delving into the matter further.

To him, it seemed reasonable for anything strange to happen to Mr. Lin Yu.

"Since we're all here, let's go fishing together." Lin Yu pointed to the crystal-clear river where you could even see fish playing in the water.

Half an hour later.

Three fishing rods were quietly placed on the riverbank.

Lin Yu and Xianren sat side by side, while Professor Yokomine stubbornly sat a few meters away from them, as if in silent protest.

Risa wasn't fishing; she was squatting by the river, curiously teasing the little fish in the water, her clear laughter ringing out from time to time.

The atmosphere was peaceful and serene.

"Here, try this."

Professor Yokomine took an oil paper package out of his backpack and handed it to Gento.

The paper package was opened, revealing several pieces of dark red, chewy-looking jerky.

"Thank you, teacher." Xianren took a piece and put it in his mouth.

The meat is firm and has a unique wild flavor that becomes more fragrant the more you chew it.

"What kind of meat is this? It tastes really good."

"Crocodile meat," Professor Yokomine said succinctly.

Upon hearing this, Gento joked, "I thought it was monster meat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Professor Yokomine's expression instantly turned extremely serious.

He turned his head and stared intently at the string man with his intact right eye.

"I never eat monsters."

The tone was less like a statement and more like an unquestionable declaration of faith.

Xianren was taken aback by the teacher's sudden seriousness and quickly waved his hand, "Just kidding, teacher, just kidding."

He knew that his teacher had an extraordinary level of dedication in certain aspects.

After a moment of silence, Gento looked up at the still-glowing inverted rainbow in the sky and took the initiative to start a conversation.

"Speaking of which, teacher, you are the foremost expert in monster research. This rainbow in the sky has been hanging for seven days now, and it has appeared all over the world. SKaRD is completely baffled as well. Do you know what's going on?"

Upon hearing this question, Professor Yokomine visibly stiffened.

He slowly raised his head, gazing at the seven-colored rainbow light. His eyes became incredibly complex, filled with awe, worry, and a hint of... helplessness and frustration.

After a long while, he finally looked away and turned to the string man, his voice low and deep.

“That is a sign from the Rainbow Serpent God, Nijikajaki.”

"Rainbow Serpent God?" Gento's expression hardened, and he unconsciously sat up straight.

"Ah."

Professor Yokomine nodded, as if he had made up his mind, and poured out all the words that Lin Yu had just "taught" him, along with his own understanding.

"It was originally an ancient entity that slumbered at the root of the world, and did not interfere with humanity. But it has been disturbed by the actions of humanity in recent years."

He paused here, as if organizing his thoughts, and then dropped a bombshell.

"According to my calculations, it is located in the Fuji Akihabara."

Gento's eyes widened suddenly: "What?!"

"It will wake up in the next few days, probably as early as today, and no later than the day after tomorrow."

Professor Yokomine's tone left no room for doubt, as if he were stating an established fact.

He looked at his student, who had become the captain of SKaRD, and spoke in a heavy, entrusting tone.

“Stringman, go and stop it.”

"While you still have time to stop it."

boom!
The string man's mind was blank.

He stared blankly at his teacher, feeling that his worldview had been shaken like never before.

Do you know what that rainbow is?

Know where the monster it represents is.

They even know exactly when it will wake up!
Is this... the power of a master of monster studies?
Our defense forces have used so many satellites and intelligence networks, analyzed for so many days, and haven't figured out a single thing.

As a result, the teacher sat here fishing and arranged everything perfectly?
Shocked.

Unprecedented shock.

Xianren felt that his previous understanding of the word "expert" was far too superficial.

There are people outside people, and there are days outside the sky.

The ancients never deceived me!

Looking at Professor Yokomine's serious face, which seemed to say "I am for world peace," and then at his convincing panda eyes, he suddenly felt a surge of strong admiration.

Teacher, you truly are a teacher!

Not far behind them, the man who was pretending to be watching the fishing float intently was uncontrollably shrugging his shoulders.

Lin Yu bit her lip hard, her face turning red.

No more.

I almost burst out laughing.

This old man learns pretty quickly.

The way they shifted the blame was exactly the same as mine.

No, I have to hold it in; I can't laugh here.
