Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

After the TLT director left, Gen Subaru, as he had said before, used Ultra Telekinesis to slightly influence the old man's state, ensuring that he wouldn't react in a way that could be misunderstood.

Then, Gen Subaru continued his interrupted research. The cyan crystal and the demon fragment had similar properties, and Gen Subaru was trying to fuse the two together under the intervention of the pure white light. After all, the cyan energy was still too dangerous, and Gen Subaru couldn't feel at ease letting it play the dominant role.

and....

If Yuan Mao's intuition is correct, there should be some kind of attraction between these green crystals, like opposite magnets. Although he doesn't know how big the 'magnetic force' is, as long as they meet, a fierce battle will inevitably break out between the hosts they possess, until one of them devours the other.

Therefore, Gen Subaru hoped to use the Demon Fragment to suppress these side effects. After all, he only wanted a 'stimulant', not a new, less-than-advantageous buff. Gen Subaru had already decided that if he could produce this 'stimulant,' he would use it next time he encountered a troublesome enemy, instead of using the 'galaxy'.

Indeed, during this period, Gen Subaru made significant progress in his research on 'galaxies' and 'unification'. At least now, the 'galaxy' has been largely completed. The system centered on [Cascade Energy] is gradually influencing other energies according to the 'unification concept', thereby achieving frequency consistency and becoming a whole.

After progressing to this point, Gen Subaru immediately noticed a problem that even Master Raitei might not have considered—

If this 'galaxy' explodes, the energy from the resulting explosion will likely cause unexpected depletion and damage to the energy within my body, excluding the pure white light. Based on current estimates, I'm afraid I'll need two or three months before I can use it again.

Furthermore, as a light particle aggregate, I was probably also in a state of imminent death during this period. After all, the [Cascade Energy] was too volatile. When a volatile guy encounters a self-destructing truck, hey, that's pretty exciting.

However, the power gained at such a price is quite impressive; at least, Subaru feels that it can rival his own outburst in the Land of Light.

So why was that outbreak so intense?

Even now, Yuan Mao still couldn't figure it out. He used his current knowledge to analyze it a little, but still couldn't find the answer. So he didn't dwell on it any longer and continued his research. In this way, Yuan Mao spent the second month after returning from outside the seal.

Yuan Mao felt that he had spent a very fulfilling time during this period. To be honest, the feeling of living peacefully without any enemies interfering was quite comfortable.

However, just as Gen Subaru was thinking this, the long-awaited cry for help reached his ears. Gen Subaru was already prepared and responded to the call.

In another universe, Kazuki Komon, dressed in casual clothes, sits in the coffee shop he frequents throughout the year, and an acquaintance finds him at that moment.

"Gu Men, it's been a long time."

"Vice-captain, I ordered you a cappuccino, that should be fine, right?"

Kazuki Komon smiled and waved to Nagi Saijo, glancing at his former vice-captain sitting beside him. A wave of emotion washed over him. After that miraculous battle, with Dark Zagi no longer causing trouble behind the scenes, the problem of the Alien Beasts still existed, but the intensity of the battle had clearly decreased significantly. The members of the Night Raid Squad had also made their own progress in the time that followed.

Like the vice-captain Saijo Nagi in front of me, she was transferred to the TLT North American branch three months ago for related guidance and training. If nothing unexpected happens, she will probably be working in the North American branch next.

And then there's Captain Hecang. Although he's still in TLT-J, his life has changed quite a bit. After all, he's now a good husband, and his wife is eight months pregnant.

Shiori Hiraki is still the same as ever, carefree and easygoing, but she is now a qualified training instructor, cultivating one warrior after another to fight against the alien beasts.

Of course, she has many suitors, but she doesn't seem to want to end her single life yet.

And then there's Mitsuhiko Ishibori... also known as Hajime Yamaoka. He had just been released by TLT-J not long ago. After being vetted, he continued the experimental projects he had before being possessed by Dark Zagi. I heard he was working overtime a lot and his health was in pretty bad shape from staying up all night.

As for Kira, he's still the same as always, and since he has more free time now, Komon Kazuki seems to be becoming more and more laid-back.

Then there's... Jun Himeya. After the light of Nexus left his body, he picked up his camera again and became active in war-torn regions, insisting on photographing the reality of the battlefield to call attention to the problems. Nagi Saijo met Himeya at his solo exhibition in Los Angeles.

Kazuki Komon had also seen the photos he took; they were impressive, especially the photos of children on the battlefield. They were all smiling brightly at the camera.

Then there is a young man named 'Chiju Rei'. He is the "son of Prometheus". However, due to the fatal flaw of the Prometheus Project from the moment it was born, it cannot prevent cell death. He will inevitably die at the age of eighteen. In order to prevent this from happening, Chiju Rei needs the treatment drug "Raphael".

Senju Rei felt that rather than lying there waiting for an "angel who would never come," she should make the most of her remaining time and escape quietly.

Then, the Light of Nexus chose him. Senju Rei felt that there was still something he could do, so he chose to become Nexus and deal with those alien beasts that could still grow to enormous sizes.

However, because of the sudden arrival of Nexus, the strength of the alien beasts was not that terrifying, and because of the data he left behind, the medicine that could cure Senju Rei was also developed in advance.

Therefore, after ending his battles as Nexus, Senju Rei works at an amusement park and becomes engaged to Mizuki, who was originally there to monitor him but has since resigned from his job at TLT. The two of them take over a restaurant and spend their days surrounded by the happy smiles of many families.

"Oh, right. Speaking of marriage—"

Kazuki Komon smiled and looked at Nagi Saijo, asking him to guess who it was.

Faced with this question, Saijo Nagi was completely baffled. Everyone she knew was either married or a staunch believer in singlehood. After hearing Komon Kazuki's question, she really couldn't guess who it was for the time being.

"The answer is Chief Saya Shuto, the Memory Police."

Kazuki Komon didn't keep them in suspense for too long. He took a sip of his coffee and said with a smile:

"I heard they're getting married next month, but their partner is also divorced and has a grown daughter."

"That's it..."

Saijo Nagi nodded in surprise, about to pick up her glass and take a sip of the cappuccino that Komon Kazuki had praised, but then, as if struck by a sudden thought, her eyes widened, her neck stiffened, and she looked at Komon Kazuki, whispering:

"Could it be that her marriage partner is...?"

"Yes. It's Manager Matsunaga."

"Wow...wow...wow...this is really unbelievable."

Nagi Saijo held the cup in both hands, feeling her mind reeling. After all, the fact that the head and deputy head of the TLT intelligence investigation department could actually live together was something Nagi Saijo, who had dealt with them frequently before, couldn't imagine at all how these two workaholics could spark a romance.

"By the way, how is Riko doing these days?"

The marriages of her former bosses made Saijo Nagi want to change her perspective, so she asked about Kazuki Komon.

"Ah, Riko is doing well now. How should I put it, it's all thanks to Mr. Gen Subaru's help. Once Riko's job is more stable, we'll start preparing to have a child."

Kazuki Komon and Riko Saito were the first couple in the Night Raid to get married. It's like wherever they went, dogs would be killed. Kazuki had wanted children for a long time, but Riko Saito couldn't let go of the shadows from her past and worried that her past experiences would have a negative impact on the children. But now it seems that this mental block has been resolved.

Saijo Nagi and Komon Kazuki continued chatting, reminiscing about various amusing anecdotes, but as they talked, the two of them inevitably got down to business—

Currently, the existence of the alien beasts has been made public, and people are overcoming their fear while continuing their daily lives.

However, recently, TLT intelligence discovered that someone was using a deactivated memory processor to illegally erase people's horrific memories. Although the investigation has largely confirmed that the man has a background as a memory police officer, Matsunaga and Shuto have not been able to figure out the true identity of the perpetrator.

"What exactly is this guy's goal?"

Saijo Nagi frowned slightly; she couldn't understand what the point of erasing someone's memories was...

"Wait, the River of Oblivion."

Saijo Nagi seemed to realize something, and looked at Komon Kazuki, saying softly:

"The deleted memories will eventually flow into the River of Oblivion. Could it be that the enemy's goal is to attack the River of Oblivion?"

"It's possible."

Kazuki Komon nodded, and said seriously:

"Governor Matsunaga has already considered this issue, and the three officers have strengthened the protection of the River of Oblivion. Visitors are also monitoring the changes in the River of Oblivion. It is expected that any suspicious activity will be detected immediately."

Saijo Nagi nodded, agreeing with Komon Kazuki's assessment. After all, the current TLT was not the same as the old TLT. To put it bluntly, without the suppression of the alien beasts, she was genuinely worried that if humanity were to descend into internal strife, it might be wiped out by the current advanced technology.

While Saijo Nagi and Komon Kazuki were discussing and speculating about the mysterious person's purpose and motives, a terrible invasion had already occurred at TLT-J. An ominous black fog permeated the base, and all the humans who were touched by it were plunged into unprecedented fear, lying on the ground, staring wide-eyed, and letting out a pitiful wail.

In this terrifying fog, a figure was walking unhurriedly through the constantly flashing lights of the passageway, advancing deeper into the base.

"Who are you?"

At that moment, Matsunaga Yoichiro's voice came through the loudspeaker flashing with electronic music. At the same time, automated defense weapons were activated and locked onto the unknown enemy with difficulty. The man raised his head and looked at the camera not far away. In that instant, Matsunaga Yoichiro, who was forcibly maintaining his rationality with the help of the drug, felt as if he had been locked on from a distance.

"Humans are such fragile creatures, they can never shake off fear, it's really pathetic."

The man raised his hand towards the camera and squeezed it slightly. Matsunaga Yoichiro felt as if his heart had been gripped, and he immediately let out a painful scream before collapsing to the ground. He didn't hear what the man said next.

"But precisely because of this, the Dark Giants have an inexhaustible supply of nourishment. Hmph... Hey, get out of my way!"

With a sudden wave of his hand, the structure of the TLT-J base was torn apart, and the dark power immediately invaded the very bottom. In the dark mist that poured down like a waterfall, the man slowly walked out, casually tossing down the memory processor in his hand, and then crushing it with his foot. Now there was no need to use it to locate the River of Oblivion. Things that had no value should just be quietly destroyed.

Looking at the massive, constantly flashing memory machine, the River of Oblivion, and the white energy screen protecting it, the man grinned maliciously and glanced to the side. Seeing the visitors floating out, he said gleefully:

"No matter when I see you, I find it laughable that you are trying to escape your predetermined fate with the help of humans. You are still as pathetic as ever."

"Dark Zagi?"

The visitors seemed to sense something; the floating jellyfish-like body began to tremble violently. They seemed surprised to see this 'old friend' here, but they clearly remembered that Dark Zagi had been destroyed by Nexus from another world…

"Dark Zagi? What a nostalgic name. I haven't heard that shameful codename in ages. But I forgive you, poor visitors. After all, you're just a bunch of outdated old fogies."

The man chuckled and touched his face. Undoubtedly, just like when he possessed Yamaoka, his current appearance was a result of that possession. He looked at the 'jellyfish' and said in a sinister tone:

"Now, remember my new name well: I am Dark Lucifer! This will be the name that sends you to hell!"

208 Hang in there, Hongkai!

Dark Lucifer!

This name stirred up a storm in the hearts of the visitors, simply because hearing it was like having the deepest fears of their souls drawn out. In an instant, darkness spread from the depths of their hearts, gripping their minds and plunging them into endless confusion and fear.

Looking at the visitors in their frenzied state, Dark Lucifer said nothing more. He merely gave a cold laugh, then fixed his gaze on the River of Oblivion before him. This was his true purpose for this trip; only by obtaining this could he...

Ok? !

Just as Dark Lucifer was about to attack Wangchuan, he saw the four-pointed star suddenly light up. This familiar light, this familiar energy fluctuation, immediately caused Dark Lucifer to take two steps back, his face instantly darkening. He muttered through gritted teeth:

"Nexus... Subaru!"

"Oh? You actually recognize me?"

For Subaru's senses, such whispers could not escape his ears. Coupled with the psychic power that followed, and sensing the ominous energy reaction, the child's expression immediately turned serious. Without a doubt, this was just a clone, but even such a clone was slightly stronger than the Dark Zagi he had killed before.

Most importantly, he also sensed some 'old acquaintances' in this energy reaction.

"Dark Zagi, is this your new form? You're such an unkillable bug."

Gen Subaru cracked his knuckles, looked at the figure in front of him, and said in a cold tone:

"I never expected that in that situation, you would actually..."

"Don't compare me to that poor guy."
