But next second.

The artificial sun went out, and not a single flame remained, turning into complete darkness in an instant.

Even the materials on the sun model turned yellowish-brown as a result.

Masaki Keigo's face darkened; he had failed.

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared.

The creation of an artificial sun is not a one-time success; it requires countless attempts. Even a genius could not complete it in one go without any prior successes.

Moreover, current human civilization would find it difficult to do this, while Masaki Keigo is at a level that is many years ahead of human technology, creating something ahead of its time.

Even with the knowledge aid from the Apools, the Apools had never created an artificial sun; it was only through analogy that Masaki Keigo gained a lot of inspiration.

Ultimately, the most crucial element is Masaki Keigo. Everything is built upon him to create the artificial sun; if he is incapable, then the artificial sun truly cannot be created.

Masaki Keigo made a phone call and started changing the materials again.

Each failed attempt cost an astronomical sum of money. Fortunately, his conglomerate was very profitable, making money hand over fist, and could easily afford his expenses. Otherwise, Masaki Keigo would have to consider where to find research funding.

"The live stream is over. Can you two old bastards shut up for a bit and stop reaching out and clicking on my phone?" Wumaquan said.

"That's not right. It's not that we want to use your phone randomly, but you only have one phone, and we don't have anything else to watch, so we can only share this with you."

"Although we can use your computer, it's still a bit unfair. This is a workplace, a place for work. How can we use a computer meant for work to do such pointless things?"

"So you can just use my phone and click on things so casually?"

Wu Maquan's face darkened; he felt these two were becoming increasingly unreliable.

All that talk about righteous Ultra Warriors and messengers of justice is now just bullshit. These two old bastards are slacking off as much as they can. I wonder how the Land of Light enforces holiday regulations. They've probably never had a proper holiday before, since they can slack off like this.

Seven and Ace remained silent, seemingly aware that their behavior was inappropriate.

"Let's get down to business. Regarding the Dark Giants, Miriko Sato has already gone to investigate who the Dark Giant's human host is," Ace said.

“She still loves to meddle… no, I mean, to be diligent.” Wumaquan said, “Why does she have to have a human form? Maybe she can just transform into an Ultraman and take on a human form.”

“That makes sense,” Seven nodded.

Because that's what he did before.

It wasn't until the first time she chose a human body to possess someone that she had a terrible misfortune. She ran right into the dark boss and became one with the Dark Ruler.

It left a considerable shadow in his heart, and even now Seven doesn't want to casually find someone to share his body with again.

If possible, next time he chooses someone to be of one mind with, he will definitely investigate their household registration, check their identity, and look at their past experiences. He will do a thorough investigation to avoid repeating the same mistakes. It's only because Wumaquan has a good temperament and personality that he won't repeat the same mistakes. If it were another dark villain, Seven would probably have his body buried somewhere.

When he gets back, he must warn the other Ultra Brothers to be extremely cautious in choosing human hosts.

Otherwise, the consequences of carelessness could very well be the loss of one's life. The Ultramen of the Land of Light have never paid much attention to the selection of human hosts. As long as they find someone they like, they will directly choose to become one with them, without even investigating their identity.

Seven must make sure to explain this to everyone when he gets back, so that similar blunders don't happen again.

..........

At the Victory Team headquarters.

Horii and Shinjo celebrated.

The resurrected Magnia was no match for them and was easily defeated by the Ultraman they had transformed into.

"If there are any difficulties on Earth in the future, we won't have to worry at all. We can solve them easily. Ultraman's power is still strong. If one day all of humanity can master this power, the Earth will probably reach an extraordinary level."

"Let's not talk about that for now. The captain has started gathering us. I guess it's about Ultraman."

The two hurriedly arrived at the command center, where Captain Megumi briefly explained to everyone the current Ultraman on Earth.

Regarding the matter of the Dark Giants, Captain Megumi emphasized that everyone must pay close attention, not ignore it, and conduct a thorough investigation. Any discoveries must be reported immediately.

Shinjo and Horii, as the human forms of two of the Dark Giants, were completely unaware of this.

They also actively responded to what Captain Hui, the intermediary, said.

In their eyes, as Ultraman, they have an obligation to protect the peace of the Earth and the tranquility of humanity.

The two dark giants possessing them, however, thought differently. They knew that Captain Megumi was referring to them.

They even thought Captain Megumi was talking nonsense. They, the Black-Eyed Giants, were simply more driven by their own instincts. They would do whatever they wanted without ever letting other things stop them. In short, they were just acting on impulse.

How could it possibly become a threat to Earth?

Besides, they had just defeated Magnia and protected the peace of the Earth.

Logically speaking, Captain Megumi should be thanking them, but instead, she's already calling a meeting to criticize them again after only a short time.

That's truly shameless.

Hitler said, "Don't get so excited about this nonsense. Instead of wasting your time, you should go and find out where Lina and the big sister went. That's the important thing."

Shinjo said, "As a member of the GUTS team, I have an obligation to actively respond to what the captain says. Secondly, you haven't given us any direction to search. You only said that he's not dead and might be trapped somewhere. The earth is so big, we have no idea where to start looking. We can't just run around blindly, that would be completely inefficient and a huge waste of time."

“While what you said makes a lot of sense, this is your business and you must investigate it. Besides, your Victory Team is a very large organization. Given the resources of your organization, investigating a place shouldn't be too difficult. Just mobilize your organization's resources to search, and I estimate we'll have results soon,” Hitler said.

Xincheng: "..."

Although Hitler's words were more eloquent than his actions, as a member of the GUTS team, he couldn't simply mobilize the organization without cause. Before using the organization's power, he had to provide a reasonable justification. Otherwise, arbitrarily mobilizing the organization's power was not a good thing; he might even be held accountable and forced to write a self-criticism afterward, and he didn't want to relive the pain of writing such a document.

With that thought in mind, he turned his attention to Horii.

If Horii is brought along, the punishment might be relatively lighter.

Moreover, Horii also bears some responsibility for this.

At this moment, Horii was also chatting with Darram.

“Your captain talks a lot of nonsense. He repeats the same thing two or three times. It’s really annoying to listen to him,” Darram said.

"That's called being responsible, Captain. Besides, where did Lina and the others go? We really have no clue." Horii pondered deeply.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he said, "Speaking of which, it seems that Lina and Daigo went on a mission together. Now that we can't contact Lina, does that mean we can't contact Daigo either?"

When Horii voiced this guess, Shinjo also heard it.

The two of them were sitting quite close to each other, and although they spoke very softly, they could still be heard if they were close enough.

"Why don't you make a call and see?" Xincheng said.

"Why don't you fight?" Horii asked.

“I’ll fight if I want to. It’s really pointless for you to argue with me about something like this,” Xincheng said.

After the meeting ended, the two found a secluded spot and began fighting. Daigo's phone was naturally unreachable; he was no longer on Earth, and his cell phone was out of service. Their attempts to call him back yielded the same result as Rena's.

"So, Daigo and Rena disappeared at the same time," Horii said.

"What good is knowing this? It's hardly any useful information," Shinjo said.

Horii said, "No, since they both disappeared together because of the captain's mission, wouldn't it be better if we just went and asked the captain directly?"

After hearing this, Xincheng said, "Is that okay? This should be their secret mission, right? Will the captain say anything? The reason we can't contact them now is probably just because their mission has reached a critical stage."

"We should at least ask," Horii said.

Chapter 279 Exposure

Ask away.

Shinjo and Horii went straight to ask the captain.

Although it was a secret mission, since everyone was gone, we had to find out something.

Captain Megumi was somewhat surprised by Shinjo and Horii's arrival and inquiry, seemingly not expecting that these two team members would actually think of asking about this matter.

After all, she had never told anyone about this mission; it was essentially a secret mission.

However, if someone pays close attention, they can still notice it.

Captain Megumi rested her chin on her hand, saying that she hadn't been able to get in touch with Daigo and Rena lately.

It's been just recently.

It seems there was some unexpected mishap during the mission.

Now that Shinjo and Horii have come looking for us, it seems the two of them know something.

Captain Kei pondered for a moment and said, "They have been sent to infiltrate the Holy Church. The Holy Church is a huge potential danger. It now has influence all over the world, and high-ranking officials in various countries have been infiltrated. It has already created a threat without anyone noticing. Once it attacks, it could very well cause a global crisis."

“They’ve been carrying out this mission for a long time. They used to send back messages every now and then, but now there’s been no news for a while. I thought they might have reached a critical moment and couldn’t get away.”

"But now it seems that it's not that simple."

“You seem to know something, though I don’t know what it is. You don’t need to tell me, just do it. I trust you.”

I haven't heard much about the Holy Church, Shinjo, and Horii, but I do know a little about them.

I never imagined that the Holy Church had infiltrated so quietly and secretly.

Even high-ranking officials in various countries have been infiltrated.

It's absolutely terrifying.

Furthermore, the captain secretly sent Daigo and Rena to carry out this mission.

The two exchanged a glance and began to take the Holy Church seriously.

That's incredible.

"Don't worry, Captain, we will definitely bring Daigo and Rena back safely!" the two said in unison.

Captain Hui Jian nodded.

She always believed what her teammates said.
