Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

Grigio moved forward using the light she carried with her, and after parting a bush, she suddenly saw particles of light flashing before her eyes. Using this faint light, Grigio carefully took steps forward.

Soon, Grigio realized that the light was coming from a gap in the canopy woven from branches, and the trajectory of the light was like a spotlight, with colorful flowers blooming everywhere, as if covered with a layer of velvet blanket.

At the same time, the refreshing fragrance of the flowers wafted into Grigio's nostrils. As if lured by the fragrance, Grigio walked towards the sunlight and saw a white flower with an exceptionally large bloom in the center.

But upon closer inspection, Grigio realized that it wasn't flower petals at all, but rather a girl in a white dress unfolding her skirt to pick flowers. The girl's posture, enveloped by the penetrating light, was exceptionally beautiful, almost mistaking it for an illusion.

And then, Grigio suddenly noticed a small, thin figure that had appeared in the distance...

204 New Nexus

Huh? It's gone?

Grigio was stunned for a moment. In the blink of an eye, the small figure disappeared. She couldn't help but wonder if she had seen something wrong, but she trusted her senses. As a warrior, if she didn't even trust her own eyes, she would be too useless.

be careful.

Greta secretly raised her guard, but considering that the girl in front of her might be frightened by her monster battle suit, she still asked in a gentle tone:

"Excuse me, who are you?"

Upon hearing Grigio's voice, the girl in the white dress turned sharply. The petals she had gathered on her unfolded skirt instantly flew into the air with her movement. Seeing this, Grigio hurriedly spoke again:

"My name is Grigio. What are you doing in a place like this?"

Seeing that Grigio didn't seem to have any hostility, the girl hesitated for a moment, smiled slightly, and said softly:

“My name is Bianca... I am collecting flower petals with intoxicating fragrances that can be used to make perfume.”

"perfume?"

Grigio hadn't expected this answer. Although she was also a woman, perfume was often a hindrance in most of her activities, so Grigio had basically never used it.

Furthermore, there is no perfume in the house of Bakubaba.

"Hmm! The perfume used in the guardian deity's sacrificial ceremony!"

It was clear that the young girl was rather simple-minded. After a brief moment of wariness, she relaxed, looked at Gregory, and smiled as she spoke. Upon hearing the word "guardian angel," Gregory's thoughts instantly shifted from the perfume, and she calmly replied:

"What kind of sacrificial ceremony?"

"This is the ritual that will make me a sacrifice to the guardian deity Naro. I have been collecting flowers with intoxicating fragrance and charming petals for this day!"

As Bianca spoke, Grigio stared intently at the girl's face, but she saw no sign of distress. The girl in the white dress had a very happy smile on her face.

"Eh?"

Seeing this, Grigio tilted her head in confusion:

"Why... are you so happy?"

Seeing Grigio's doubts, Bianca smiled brightly.

"Because only the most beautiful woman in the village is chosen as a sacrifice."

"That's you...."

"Oh, I'll get shy. This is a very honorable thing, hehehe~~~"

"..."

For Grigio, who had always resisted fate and fought her way to survival, she could not understand Bianca at this moment. She could not understand why this girl in the white dress would accept her death so easily.

Grigio was acutely aware that the two women had completely opposite personalities, but it was precisely because of this that Bianca's story was deeply etched into Grigio's mind.

After a brief exchange with Bianca, Grigio bid farewell to the girl. To report their findings, Grigio met up with her brothers at the edge of the forest where the hidden spaceship was located. The three shared the information they had gathered, further confirming the true meaning of the sacrificial ritual—

"When the sacrificial ceremony is held, it is probably the only opportunity that the guardian god Nero has once every ten years to reveal his weakness."

The three siblings, Rob and his sister, immediately began preparing for the upcoming sacrificial ceremony. They infiltrated the Bosk tribe's village, waiting for the opportunity to defeat Nairo, and then that moment finally arrived.

At this moment, in the square bathed in the setting sun, the altar used in the ceremony cast an unusually long shadow.

Towering a head taller than the lush trees surrounding the square is a tower constructed of timber felled from the Black Forest, bound together with vines and ivy. At the very top of the tower is a ceremonial altar.

As the ritual proceeded, a series of 'tsk tsk tsk tsk—' sounds echoed through the forest, rippling like surging black waves. Although their shapes were obscured by the unfathomable trees, it was undeniable that this was a sign that the great guardian deity was approaching.

Realizing this, Rosso, Blue, and Grigio tensed up, unlocked the safety on the heat ray cannon hidden under their cloaks, and put their fingers on the trigger.

Then, on the opposite side of the top of the trees, the monster Nero, with its upper body raised, revealed its enormous form.

Its face resembled that of a ferocious beast baring its teeth, and its body was like a thousand-year-old giant tree formed by strange vines entwining around a tree trunk. It was an unforgivable composite of animal and plant, which was the true nature of the guardian beast Naro.

At this moment, the monster Nero, while swinging its serpentine vines, approached the former female sacrifice kneeling on the altar.

A tentacle-like vine stretched out in front of the former sacrifice, with earthworm-like organs undulating and trembling at the tip of the tentacle, which then transformed into the shape of fingers, as if trying to grasp something.

"Waaaaaah..."

The kneeling former sacrifice was enveloped in spiritual light, and a glowing sphere was spat out from her wide-open mouth. The organs at the tips of the monster's vines tightly bound the sphere of light, and then the former sacrifice collapsed limply onto the altar.

Seeing this, Rosso whispered in Blue and Grigio's ears:

“I understand. Naro is like a caterpillar fungus, a monster that transplants its weakness, a part of its body, into a sacrifice. During the time the sacrifice has its weakness transplanted, the original body becomes an immortal being.”

"In order to protect this weakness, the sacrificial offering will use up all its life energy, and it will wither and die after ten years."

"Therefore, Naro would demand sacrifices at regular intervals in order to continue his life..."

Upon hearing this, Grigio immediately looked toward the altar set up at the top of the tower and found the new sacrifice—Bianca. But Bianca was not afraid at all; she was even happily spreading her arms to welcome the arrival of the ball of light.

Seeing this, Grigio immediately removed her disguise cloak, revealing her combat suit, and quickly ascended the altar to ask Bianca a question:

"Why? Why don't you want to escape from this cruel world? Why did you choose to sacrifice yourself!"

Facing Grigio's fingerprints, Bianca calmly and composedly said:

“If everyone can live happily and laugh, then I will be happy too. I only know this village, and I've never even thought about living in other worlds. Grigio, I hope you will bless me as well. Because by becoming a sacrifice, I can bring happiness to the village.”

"That's quite an awareness."

At that moment, a strange yet childish voice rang out. In that instant, all the creatures present, including the monster, froze. It wasn't because time had stopped, but because a terrifying and unknown aura suddenly descended. Their survival instincts were screaming, causing their bodies to stiffen instantly due to tension and fear, rendering them unable to move.

What caused all of this was the child who suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of Grigio and Bianca. He was wearing the uniform of a mysterious organization, and his tender face was so thin that you could see his bones. But no one would underestimate him. The aura he exuded was chilling, as if it were filled with a strong smell of blood.

He was an executioner, a butcher who had slain countless enemies!

The three siblings, Rob and his sister, were acutely aware of this, and as a result, they became even more obedient.

As for the visitor, it was none other than Subaru Minamoto from the 'future'. However, this was his first time traveling through the 'timeline', so there was a slight error in the timing of his response to the call, resulting in the 'time' being a little earlier.

Gen Subaru looked at Grigio in front of him. This was the female mercenary's inner voice, pleading for help. She hoped that he could stop Bianca's actions.

Thinking of this, Gen Subaru looked at the girl in the white dress and said with a light laugh:

"It is indeed commendable to have the courage to sacrifice yourself for others, but it is a pity when that courage is mixed with ignorance and deception. Bianca, have you ever thought that if this monster were gone, wouldn't there be no one in your village who would need to be sacrificed?"

"but...."

Bianca looked at the child in front of her, who was barely taller than her earlobe, and said timidly:

"Without the protection of our guardian spirits, our village could not have survived so safely."

"You have a point."

Gen Subaru smiled slightly, and a ball of light rose in his hand, transforming into a dagger-like object:

"Light is a bond, and someone will inherit it and make it shine again. Bianca, do you have the courage to become the new guardian of this planet?"

"......" X4

Seeing this, Rob and his siblings, along with Bianca, were all stunned. The former hadn't expected that this child, who looked like a god of war, would be so easy to talk to and even give people power. The latter had never imagined that she could become a guardian deity.

At the same time, Gen Subaru was also making a small attempt to see what price he would pay if he intervened in the 'past' and modified the main timeline.

As for the light in his hand, there's nothing surprising about it. The Light of Nexus is a light that can be passed down, and the light on his body is also considered the Light of Noah. Performing such an operation is nothing more than a piece of cake for him.

Although the source of this Nexus Light is incomplete, Subaru has developed it to a considerable degree. Therefore, if Bianca chooses this power, her initial combat strength will not be weaker than other Nexus.

Amidst the complex thoughts of many, Bianca finally made a decision. She tremblingly reached out and took the light from Gen Subaru's hand. The light merged into the girl's body, and a small Trust Evolver appeared in her hand.

"Alright, it's time to begin your first task as a guardian deity."

Upon hearing Subaru's words, Bianca paused for a moment, then realized something. She switched her Trust Evolver to weapon mode, aimed at the shimmering orb of light not far away, and fired a high-energy light bullet. As it pierced through the orb, Naro was also destroyed along with his fate. The 'Wheel of Life' on this planet was thus severed.

At the same time, noticing the disappearance of the energy reaction of the guardian god Naro, and mistakenly believing that the Rob siblings had succeeded, the mercenary force carefully trained by Largo, which was waiting in orbit around the planet Duntak, immediately flew over the Black Forest, intending without hesitation to burn the forest and the village to ashes with incendiary bombs.

Seeing this, Bianca looked at Gen Subaru with a pale face, seemingly hoping for help, but before Gen Subaru could answer, the girl realized that the 'answer' was in her own hands.

"Do what you should do, don't regret it, don't hesitate, and think clearly about what you want to protect."

"Nexus!"

As Subaru's words fell, Bianca also drew her Trust Evolver, becoming the new Nexus, and began fighting against the enemies who had invaded her homeland.

Gen Subaru then looked at the three siblings, R/B, beside him. With a slight fluctuation of his Ultra psychic power, a message was forcefully inserted into their minds.

During this time, Gen Subaru was also busy. He detected the spaceship outside the planet, boarded it, and used various methods to investigate useful intelligence.

Largo's modernization of Planet Duntak is nothing more than empty talk, a hypocritical act for personal gain. His real aim is to monopolize the rare minerals slumbering beneath the Black Forest.

Of course, Bakubaba accepted Largo's commission only after understanding the situation. But she didn't tell Rosso, Blue, and Grigio the truth.

Yuan Mao had learned some things about the background of the three siblings from the mercenaries, which is why he now had the patience to communicate with them.

"Can...."
