Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

This is a really bad feeling.

Yuan Mao's expression changed, and he quickly looked through the rest of the base. After confirming that the source of this strange feeling was not in the base, Yuan Mao immediately returned to You Sha Lei's side to recuperate. He now understood that in the entire Earth Star Defense Force, only he and You Sha Lei could fight against the Dark Giants. Therefore, the most important thing right now was to quickly restore his strength.

And so, another day passed. Yuan Mao watched as Yu Sha Lei, after waking up, busied herself with various tasks for the Earth Star Defense Force. Although she was young, thanks to years of deliberate training, she handled all kinds of arrangements with ease.

Furthermore, during this process, Yusa Lei also felt the physical enhancements that Gen Subaru had given her. Putting aside everything else, the ability to think quickly and multitask was extremely useful. Things that might have taken a whole day to process could now be done in just half a day, and she could use the remaining time to find other things to do.

At that moment, Yu Sha Lei suddenly remembered something, got up abruptly, ran to a room deep inside the base, rummaged through it and found a package. She then found a secluded spot and began to softly call out to Gen Ang.

At this moment, Yuan Mao was busy handling his various affairs in his own mental world. Although his strength was damaged, it did not affect the development of his various skills. He did not pay much attention to external affairs, as long as he could appear in time when hostility or killing intent appeared.

So, Yu Sha Lei called out in her mind for a while before finally pulling Yuan Mao out of his skill development state. Yuan Mao rubbed his face and whispered:

"Yu Sha Lei, what happened?"

219 Triga: Has a cheat code

"Well, I do have something to ask you."

Yu Shalei, a little embarrassed, said with a slightly flushed face:

"I was too tired yesterday and completely forgot. Here, take this and see if it works."

As Yusa Lei spoke, she opened the package, revealing a bronze-like artifact with a round handle topped with open 'V'-shaped wings. In the center of the 'V' was a crystal-like object, which looked very much like the Spark Prism of Madoka Daigo after it was activated.

"This is a divine artifact passed down through generations, which has taken countless years to collect the light of the stars."

Yusa Lei explained to Gen Subaru:

"Because this thing has been sitting here for so long and no one has been able to use it, I just couldn't remember it for a moment. I'm so embarrassed to have made such a mistake..."

"There is indeed some good power in this. Although it's just a drop in the ocean to replenish my energy, it's still quite interesting to study the structure of this power."

Yuan Mao didn't respond to Yu Sha Lei's words. Shiori once said that when a woman is in an awkward situation, unless she has high emotional intelligence, it's not appropriate to say anything. It's better to directly change the subject. Yuan Mao admitted that he didn't have much emotional intelligence, so he decided to get straight to the point.

"To be honest, it's quite normal that no one in your base can use this artifact. It's more like an activator to trigger hidden or dormant powers within the body. Generally speaking, ordinary humans shouldn't be able to use it. As for guiding out the starlight within... for humans, that light is too powerful and difficult for the body to control. For Ultra Warriors, it's better than nothing... Oh, wait..."

At this point, Gen Ang suddenly paused, blinked, and said softly:

"For ordinary Ultra Warriors, it should still have a certain supplementary and enhancement effect, but it's useless to me. If you encounter danger in the future, Yusa Lei, you can try to take out the power inside and use it."

"Then... I'll just carry it with me for now?"

Yu Sha Lei thought for a moment, then asked Yuan Mao in a low voice. After receiving an affirmative answer, Yu Sha Lei used the wrapping cloth to hang it around her waist and then went to attend to other matters. However, she also noticed that there was a faint and elusive thought lingering around her waist, which she assumed was because Yuan Mao was still studying the artifact.

Thinking of this, You Sha Lei's steps became much lighter. How should I put it? She finally had something that could interest Yuan Mao. Otherwise, it would really give her a strange sense of frustration.

This thing is really quite interesting.

On the other side, Gen Subaru was also intently studying the changes in the starlight within the artifact. Although he had put aside his research on the 'Voice of the Stars', it wasn't because he couldn't figure it out or because he lacked clues. Rather, it was because when he evolved into the 'Wingless Noah,' he had vaguely realized that the 'Voice of the Stars' couldn't be triggered on its own.

It was a voice of hope emanating from a civilization and the entire planet, a power that leaned towards the 'spiritual' realm, a miracle that could only be encountered by chance and not sought after. Therefore, there was no need to spend too much time and effort on it.

This constellation of starlight is quite interesting. Subaru sensed a rare 'balance' within it. Different starlights blended harmoniously within this artifact, and when necessary, they joined forces to unleash considerable power.

this....

That would be very helpful.

Yuan Mao felt that he could find some things he could learn from this, which might allow his 'galaxy' to develop further.

And so, Gen Subaru and Yusa Lei each went about their own business and another day passed. Of course, before going to bed, Yusa Lei pestered Gen Subaru again and listened to a few bedtime stories about the universe before ending her hard work for the day.

However, he didn't sleep well. At around 4:20 a.m., a murderous glint flashed in the eyes of Minamoto no Subaru, who was studying the artifact. With his thought, the 'Evolution Trustee' that was being studied broke through the protection and walls and came to Yusa Lei's room.

Under the control of her telekinesis, the still-sleeping Yusa Lei's body grasped the transformation device and pulled it out. In the dazzling light, the silver-black Nexus leaped out and landed lightly on the mountain.

"Treiga, that's the guy!"

In Gen Subaru's view, the severely crippled Hitram was carried here by the half-crippled Dagon. Upon seeing Nexus appear, Hitram, who only had three fingers left, immediately pointed at Gen Subaru and cried out to the dark giant beside him, sounding like a junior who had been beaten and brought his elder to seek revenge.

"Hey buddy, be careful, this guy's a real fighter..."

Dagon cautiously reminded Triga, fearing that his friend and rival might misjudge the situation because of Hitram's greasy mouth.

Triga nodded, then glanced at Carmilla beside him. After the two reached a consensus, they immediately charged towards Nexus side by side.

Seeing the two dark giants, Subaru reached out and grabbed some energy from their necks, then threw it into the air. Golden light rained down, and Meta Domain unfolded. Triga immediately sensed something was wrong and fired black and red light bullets from his hands, trying to stop Meta Domain from unfolding.

At the same time, Gen Subaru placed his hand on [Armed Nexus]. With a flash of light, a ball of light was emitted into the air, which then transformed into dense particle feathers that bombarded down. Carmilla raised her left hand, and with her right hand, she took out a slender, soft, and resilient energy whip from her left wrist. After infusing it with energy, she immediately began to spin it, transforming it into a huge shield that blocked all the particle feathers.

At this moment, Dagon and Hitram realized that they were holding the team back. Otherwise, Carmilla wouldn't have needed to expend so much power to deploy such a large shield. So they turned to leave, but they had clearly underestimated the speed at which Meta Domain was deployed, as well as the 'Ultimate Cross Barrier' outside.

"Hmm...this domain can suppress our power and absorb our energy..."

Carmilla immediately noticed the sluggishness in her body and whispered to Triga with a somewhat unpleasant expression. Triga did not reply but accelerated towards Nexus. As the black mist emanated from his body, Triga's speed and strength were also enhanced to a certain extent.

Subaru leaped into the air, causing his body to spin horizontally at high speed. The friction with the atmosphere generated heat and light, transforming into a giant light dart similar to the Eight-Part Light Wheel, which charged towards Triga.

Seeing this attack, Triga focused his energy in his right hand and then swung it horizontally, the long energy blade extending out to strike the side of the light dart, trying to break through this relatively weak area and interrupt Subaru's attack.

But just as the energy blade was about to hit, the rapidly spinning light dart suddenly stopped. The energy blade grazed Nexus's waist by a hair's breadth, and Gen Subaru used the force of the sudden stop to fling himself into the sky at high speed. With the graceful movements of a swallow, he dodged Hitram's sneak attack and, after finding the right angle, fell like a meteor.

Triga's expression changed, and he hurriedly unleashed a burst of energy, knocking back the unsuspecting Carmilla and dodging the meteor kick. However, as soon as Subaru landed, he launched another kick, the scorching flames unleashing a violent force, and a Leo kick struck Carmilla in the abdomen.

Amidst the mournful cry of the dark giant, she flew backward at high speed, crashing into Dagon and Hitram, who couldn't dodge. Like bowling balls, the three of them flattened the protruding red rocks in Meta Realm, creating a plain.

"Tiger...!!"

At this moment, Triga clenched his fists and let out a fierce roar. With a flash, he teleported to Gen Subaru's side using the black mist and threw punches. His fists were accompanied by wind and made a whooshing sound. Each punch was more ferocious than the last, fiercely attacking Nexus's vital points.

Gen Subaru caught several of Triga's punches with his elbow, and then, seizing the opportunity, kicked Triga in the knee, thwarting his attack. At the same time, Nexus raised his leg and swept it horizontally, like a heavy whip, forcing Triga to retreat repeatedly.

Just as Triga was focusing on his lower body, Gen Subaru suddenly changed tactics. He feigned a kick but actually advanced, closing the distance. Then, he clenched his right fist and used his elbow to strike Triga's left cheek from right to left. Triga's reaction was swift, barely managing to catch the elbow strike with his palm.

However, the overwhelming force still caused Triga to turn his face away, and his hand failed to firmly grasp Nexus's elbow joint. Gen Subaru immediately struck Triga's right cheek with his elbow from left to right in a lightning-fast motion.

Triga took the full force of that blow; a 'buzz' filled his head, followed by a sharp, cicada-like sound, and he experienced a moment of disorientation.

However, Triga's fighting instincts were still quite good. He was wearing full armor, with few vulnerable parts exposed, so he raised his hands to protect his face, and violent black energy lightning burst out from all angles.

If it were before, Gen Subaru would have charged forward despite the energy lightning and delivered another elbow strike to Triga from behind. But now he had no choice but to back down, since he was fighting using Yusa Rei's body. If he was seriously injured, the wounds would pass over him and leave scars on the white-haired girl, which was something Gen Subaru did not want to see.

But retreating has never been Genji's style. He took a step back, avoiding the strongest period of the black energy lightning burst, and then struck forward with one hand. The light grenade landed heavily on Triga's defensive arms, and the explosive power made him take two steps back.

At this moment, Genjiro rushed forward, wanting to launch a series of attacks. Triga had also recovered and began to parry Nexus's moves. Genjiro did not confront him head-on. He spun around to avoid Triga's heavy punch, circled around to his back, hugged him, gritted his teeth, and suddenly exerted his strength. As his body leaned back, he lifted Triga into the air, spun him around, and then slammed him hard onto the ground.

Seeing this, Carmilla let out a shrill roar. Seeing her lover injured hurt her more than being kicked by Leo. She immediately summoned a pale blue energy bar and released a whirlwind to knock Subaru away from Triga. Dagon also realized that this was not the time to stand by and watch. He clenched his fist and slammed it into the ground, as if igniting an engine, and charged out like a tank.

Carmilla wanted to rush over with Dagon, but at that moment, the heavily injured Hitram stopped her. Just now, when Nexus and Triga were fighting, he noticed that every time his opponent exerted force, faint dark patterns flashed on his arms, as if black blood was flowing through his body. This gave Hitram some new ideas, but only Carmilla could realize these ideas.

"Get out of my way!"

On the other side, Dagon had already rushed to Triga's side. In these two battles, he had realized that his opponent's fighting skills and experience were quite amazing, especially in finding weaknesses. Even if it was a loophole that was deliberately given to him, once it was seized, he could forcefully expand it and dismantle his own defense.

Could this be an old monster that came from some cosmic meat grinder battlefield?

Dagon muttered to himself, but his movements remained remarkably swift. Together with Triga, he focused on the left while Triga focused on the right. The two of them unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks, pressing down on Nexus's range of movement and restricting his fighting skills. No matter how many techniques he possessed, he had no room to use them.

It must be said that this kind of cooperation did suppress Gen Subaru in the early stages, after all, Gen Subaru had not been surrounded for a while. However, after a few simple moves, the combat reflexes he had trained in the Deep Blue Space quickly awakened.

In the midst of a flurry of blows, Nexus grabbed Dagon's arm and simultaneously tightened his knee, delivering a powerful kick that struck the inside of Triga's knee, disrupting his offensive rhythm. Then, he swiftly cut into Dagon's arms, pinning Dagon's waist and pulling him towards himself, before slamming him hard to the ground from behind.

The lightning-fast counterattack was so sudden that Dagon hadn't even had time to react before his perspective shifted to the ground. Triga rolled to the side, somewhat awkwardly dodging Subaru's jab, while also protecting Dagon, who was lying on the ground, his muscles twitching, to prevent his companion from being beaten to death in the chaos.

In the distance, Hitram raised his short sword, using it as a sniper rifle to fire energy spikes, hindering Subaru's pursuit. Meanwhile, Carmira, who had stealthily moved elsewhere, launched a surprise attack on Nexus's back...

220 A new storm has appeared.

Although it was a surprise attack, Carmila did not rush forward to try to fight Gen Subaru in close combat. After making several circles with her hands in front of her chest in the posture of the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, she made a roc spreading its wings to gather strength. Then she lowered her center of gravity, pressed down with her hands, and released a dark talisman wrapped in purplish-red dark energy, which attacked Gen Subaru.

This is a dark spell. Hitram speculates that his opponent may also have dark power hidden within him. Therefore, he hopes that Carmilla will find the right time to use this spell to unleash the dark energy within him, thereby interrupting the giant's actions and causing him to go berserk, making it easier for Triga and Dagon to find an opening.

Carmilla's timing was indeed excellent. If Subaru had used 'Saga Hyper Acceleration', he might have been able to avoid it, but...

Looking at the dark spell, Gen Subaru quickly thought for a moment and felt there was no need to harm himself to forcibly use [Cyclic Hyper Acceleration]. So, under the excited gazes of Hitram and Carmilla, the ominous spell landed on Nexus.

At that very moment, a 'thump' sound, like a huge heart suddenly beating, rang in the ears of the Dark Quartet, making them feel a chilling aura that seemed about to burst forth.

Triga immediately realized that the enemy had entered the second phase. Even if the dark magic took effect, he and Carmira might not be able to withstand it, especially with two severely injured patients beside them...

Run!

Triga acted quickly; he could see that this magical realm was also affected by the shift between light and darkness.

Therefore, he directly absorbed most of the dark energy from Hitram, Dagon, and Carmilla, concentrated it on his own body, and unleashed a deadly beam with all his might.

Combined with the dark mist left outside, they barely managed to slip out of the seal and escape with their three companions, leaving everyone else in the dust.

Tsk, if only they had rested for one more day, the Meta Domain and the Ultimate Cross Barrier wouldn't have been breached.

Seeing this, Gen Subaru couldn't help but smack his lips, but he didn't take it too seriously. Originally, after the battle started, he was worried that this Triga, who seemed to be in a parallel world and had replaced Tiga, was some tough opponent. But after this exchange, his strength was just so-so, barely passable. He could go back and rest for a few more days before considering taking the initiative to launch an attack.

However, Carmilla's dark skills are quite interesting.

Gen Subaru felt the restless dark energy within his body. He suppressed it with his activated psychic power while secretly pondering that if this skill had been used during the Dark Zagi era, he would probably have fallen into a berserk state where he couldn't distinguish friend from foe after being hit by it.

But now, this... seems like it can be modified and used as a low-intensity energy activator. Of course, not for Subaru himself. Subaru already has [Amplification], which is more than enough. But [Amplification] can't be used on the enemy. Imagine throwing this [Energy Activation Spell] at the enemy while they are charging up. If it's adjusted well, the enemy might blow themselves up due to energy loss of control.

Hmm... this has some potential. I might consider making an arrangement. When I get tired of researching things like "unification" and "galaxies," I can use this to refresh my mind and relax.
