Subaru could tell that Zero wasn't lying, which made him very suspicious. He found a chair, sat down, and began to listen to what Zero had to say next.

A few days ago, Zero, Gai, and the others discovered Nexus, which was wearing a layer of mecha, and began to investigate. At that moment, the Nexus Ultra Fusion Card from Subaru in Gai's hand suddenly reacted, making Zero and his group even more certain that this strange Nexus was Subaru's true form, and thus they accelerated their approach.

However, as they continued to progress, Zero and his group began to realize that something was wrong. At first, they thought that Subaru's version of Nexus was just a little bigger, and that they could do something like that too.

However, slowly, the armored Nexus grew larger and larger. What used to seem like a distance that could be covered in a few minutes now seemed impossibly far away. Zero and his group flew for quite a while but never managed to touch the edge of the armored Nexus's body. At that point, they could no longer even measure the size of Nexus with the naked eye.

Seeing this, Zero and Gai exchanged a glance and, without saying a word, simultaneously activated their respective spacetime abilities. They realized that this matter was far more complicated than they had imagined.

Furthermore, as they began using spacetime forces to rush closer, the reaction from the spacetime flow revealed that this was actually a composite universe plane resembling Nexus—

Those who were once part of a cosmic plane should know that each cosmic plane is independent. Occasional contact and friction between them is not a problem. However, if such contact and friction occur too frequently or for too long, events of multiverse interference will occur.

These kinds of events, ranging from small-scale time travel involving people, planets, or even galaxies in different universes, to large-scale events such as the entanglement of timelines, the impact of cosmic energy, and the outbreak of spatial faults, are all good material for making feature films.

But regardless of the magnitude of the phenomena caused by such events, if they continue, the two cosmic planes that come into contact will inevitably perish. When different rules overlap, there will no longer be "order," and chaos will be conceived within it, obliterating all common sense and ultimately leading to disordered chaos!

At this very moment, the phenomenon of the "aggregated universe planes" that Zero and Gai are witnessing is an even more terrifying harbinger of disaster. Within the projection of Armed Nexus, tens of millions of universe planes are being forcibly brought into contact and rubbed together.

Although these cosmic planes appear quite immature, and the power of order they contain is not abundant, this explosion in quantity will surely trigger a qualitative evolution. Zero and Gai can imagine that once this [collection of cosmic planes] reaches its critical point, the terrifying cosmic energy will erupt, and this place will inevitably become a new [chaotic breach]. It might even trigger a new wave of chaotic frenzy in the [greater universe].

As for the [Armed Nexus Projection] as its carrier, its fate is self-evident. As for the original body, Subaru, the consequences are even more obvious.

At this point, whether out of personal feelings or duty, Zero and his group had to prevent this disaster from happening. However, considering that the situation could be beyond their control at any time, Zero sent out the Ultra Sign and sent out Crimson Flame and Jenna separately to carry out saturation message transmission, striving to ensure that the events here could be transmitted back to the Land of Light.

As for the possibility of not having enough manpower on their side, to be honest, given Zero and his group's current capabilities, even if they split one person into two, it wouldn't be enough. All they can do now is delay the outbreak of the disaster as much as possible.

After making the arrangements, Zero, Gai, and Mirror Knight began to try to contact this composite universe plane. On one hand, they wanted to find the node that triggered the composite universe plane, and on the other hand, they hoped to awaken Subaru's consciousness so that Subaru, as the vessel, could try to help them control the situation.

Then, less than an hour after they set off, something happened to Mirror Knight. Zero, realizing that something was wrong with his teammates, immediately tried to go to their aid, but his path was blocked by the dark golden Nexus energy body.

Zero knew the situation was urgent and it wasn't the time for battle, so he activated the [Shield of Paragi] in an attempt to bypass the mindless Nexus blocking his way.

But to Zero's surprise, as Nexus's palm emitted a dreamlike light, his spatial teleportation was not only interrupted, but he was also pulled into a vast universe that was obviously created on the spot.

The Nexus energy body appeared and descended into this universe. Immediately afterwards, Zero looked at his [Paragi Shield] with a subtle expression. He could clearly feel that the moment the energy body appeared, this item given to him by [Ultraman Noa] lost its response, as if its spacetime power had been forcibly shut down.

This gave Zero a jolt; it was undoubtedly a bad omen. He quickly tried to eliminate the Nexus energy entity, thinking that no matter what the guy's abilities were, as long as he couldn't release them, then he had no abilities.

However, just as Zero took action, he saw that countless planets had appeared in the previously empty space. The surfaces of those planets were covered with cracks, and beneath the cracks, surging energy was flashing. No matter how Zero looked at it, he felt that the reaction of those things was reminiscent of the Ultra Bomb.

Then, Zero saw countless planets suddenly explode. The violent and boundless power, under the control of this energy entity, perfectly completed the process of concentrated point-to-point strike, with almost no loss of power. Zero was amazed and even wanted to drag his Uncle Taro over to see. They were both users of the "Ultra Bomb," so why couldn't Uncle Taro do this?

But that's a story for later. Right now, the most important thing is to escape. Looking at the shockwave of the exploding stars, Zero was calmer than ever before. Although he couldn't use the [Shield of Paragi], he still had the power of light and the power to manipulate time, which could still buy him some room to struggle.

Then, Zero proved a point by himself: in the face of overwhelming power, all the fancy tricks and gimmicks cannot change the final outcome.

However, Zero didn't think he lost that badly, after all...

Zero recalled the scene at that time. The temporary universe space he was in was directly grasped by that energy entity, which then blew up the entire space in its palm. Under such an attack, it was really not easy for him to survive by relying on the power of light.

As for what happened after he was blown away, that's beyond Zero's explanation; that's for Subaru and the others to explain to him.

“My…power…”

After hearing Zero's words, Gen Subaru's expression instantly turned serious. He knew all too well how powerful [Eternal Primal] was. Putting aside other opponents, apart from Noah and Legend, Gen Subaru felt that he could rely on the power of this form to roam freely in most universes.

And now, Zero says that the power of [Eternal Primal] has been seized by the enemy, that's just too much...

Wait...wait!!!

Gen Subaru was slightly taken aback, realizing something was wrong. His gaze fell on the lower left corner of the old-fashioned computer, where Zero had casually drawn a scene diagram while explaining the past. There, the strange [Armed Nexus] was still displayed.

It's almost certain now that, in the outside world, he and Gridman are also in a combined state, since the weapon looks exactly like a module of Gridman's armor.

Then....

In this Azalea Terrace miniature world, I merged with Gridman, gaining physical attributes and acquiring blood...

Thinking of this, Yuan Mao reached under his clothes and felt around, pulling out a small amount of blood from the cut. He then slowly rubbed it, silently sensing the reaction.

Reiblood alien... I understand now. So... the Reionics power that controls monsters comes from me. Outside the Little Garden, I was able to manifest the genetic power of the Reiblood alien for the same reason.

Then this power, which should have been very weak, was amplified and strengthened by the unity of [Eternal·Original], causing it to exhibit abilities beyond the norm.

Thinking about it this way... Senior Kai is probably already in enemy hands. The Ultra Warriors who appeared in the world of Nanmengya before, their true forms should be Ultra Fusion Cards of Ultraman Orb, whose power of light is controlled by my Reionics power...

So... Dyna-senpai is...?

"Dyna, I don't know what happened either."

Subaru seemed to realize something and asked Zero about it. Zero shrugged and said helplessly.

"That guy's spacetime power has always been unreliable. He was probably just unlucky and stumbled upon this place. He was probably taken down before us. At least... judging from the feedback from Mirror Knight, it was Dyna's attack that rendered Mirror Knight unable to fight."

Ah... so there are at least three hostages outside right now...

Gen Subaru nodded to indicate that he had heard, and then fell into deep thought again. Although he seemed to have figured out the origin of the Reonic Force, there was still one key question that had not been resolved.

That's why things turned out this way. If the outside [Collection Universe Plane] is the real me and Gridman, then what's going on with Gridman and me now? Are we actually in an out-of-body state right now?

If Gridman and I were truly in a state similar to an out-of-body experience, then some things would become inexplicable. Putting aside Gridman's situation, when I was in the state of "Eternal·Primordial," everything about me was within a closed loop.

To give a simple example, imagine one day you suddenly have the idea to cut off your arm, seal it up somewhere, and then run as far away as possible. There are only two possible outcomes—

First, due to the existence of [Unification], that arm will forcibly break through the seal and return to its own body under the influence of the power of [Eternity·Primal].

Second, if the arm cannot break free of the seal, or if it is too far away and exceeds the range that [Unification] can influence, then [Eternal·Original] will perform self-completion and create another arm. As for the previous arm, it will be automatically destroyed at the same time as the [completion] occurs.

and!

Both of these situations are based on the consciousness of Minamoto no Subaru himself.

In other words, since Subaru's soul is here, the [Eternal Primal] outside will either come looking for him or simply dissipate on its own.

Moreover, although I was very weak after fighting Chaos, since I was able to blast Zero like that, I must have recovered a lot of strength outside. So if someone from there came looking for me, I should be able to react even in this little world.

Furthermore, that level of [Eternal Primal] power is unlikely to be affected by external factors or sealed away...

......

......

......

Damn, could it be that it's been controlled by the power of the Reonics?!

In that instant, a flash of inspiration struck Gen Subaru. Indeed, the [Eternal·Original] form had maximum resistance to external forces, but if there was a traitor within, it would be a completely different story.

In a sense, if, as he suspected, he was indeed affected by the power of Reonicus, then the belligerence and brutality inherent in the Reiblood aliens' genes could indeed have a certain impact on the power of [Eternal Primal].

Furthermore, it's possible that the confusing effect of the [Chaos] power caused him and Gridman to merge together, potentially creating vulnerabilities on Gridman's side that could further impact [Eternal·Original].

Even after going through this process, other questions remain. For example, why is Gridman referred to as a "fake" by Alexis? How did I actually enter this miniature world? Was the formation of this "aggregate universe plane" accidental, or is there a mastermind using this opportunity to push something forward...?

Ha... one problem after another, it's keeping us constantly on edge.

Gen Subaru scratched his head helplessly, looked up at Zero, and said softly:

"Zero, how much light energy do you have left?"

"Light energy..."

Speaking of this issue, Zero's mood became quite bad. He looked at his current body and said with some difficulty:

"Let alone light energy, I seem to have been forcibly transformed into another form of life. It's probably impossible for me to even crawl out of this computer screen now."

"It's nothing, just a normal phenomenon of global assimilation."

Hearing Zero's answer, Genji Subaru's feelings were quite complicated. The good news was that an acquaintance had come; the bad news was that this acquaintance wasn't much help. So, after all this time, he still had to rely on himself. Seeing that Zero seemed genuinely flustered, Genji Subaru casually offered some words of comfort:

"You were severely injured in the explosion and were unable to resist the rules of this world, which is why you became an electronic life form. Once we take you out of here, you will naturally recover."

World assimilation......electronic life....

Nan Mengya blinked, catching a key phrase that reminded her of the scenes she had seen when traversing this cosmic plane, along with the fact that Gen Subaru had deliberately left the Dyna Tyrannosaurus Rex outside, and the attention Gen Subaru had paid to her body when they first arrived.

Suddenly, Nanmuya realized something and instinctively wanted to look at Takarada Rikka beside her...

302. One should never sit idly by and wait for death.

Because of the memories of Gen Subaru in the dream, Nan Mengya's knowledge and perspective were greatly broadened. Although Nan Mengya did not grasp or understand much of the knowledge in these memories, it was enough to make the girl realize something.

If we follow Subaru's logic, then... it's probably not just Zero and Gridman, but also Rikka, Aunt Takarada, and even all the residents of Azalea Terrace, who might be the electronic lifeforms he's talking about, since that's how the rules of this world are.

Just as Nan Mengya realized this, she felt a gaze from Gen Subaru. Although it was just a seemingly casual glance from the boy, based on the relationship between Ultraman and his human host, Nan Mengya still sensed Gen Subaru's thoughts.

He realized he had let something slip and sensed that his side had guessed the truth from it, which was why they glanced at him to stop him from saying anything.

Nan Mengya thought about it for a moment and then remained silent. There was really no need to say it. After all, from any perspective, Rikka and the others were basically no different from humans. Since Gen Subaru wanted to continue to treat Rikka and the others as 'humans,' she would cooperate with him and keep this secret.

As for Gen Subaru, he didn't continue to pay attention to Nan Mengya's situation. He believed that the girl understood his meaning, so after briefly comforting Zero, he continued to think about his next move. In the current situation, perhaps he really needed to go and talk to Alexis to see what secrets he was hiding.

Thinking of this, Gen Subaru stood up with a whoosh and transformed into a streak of light, rushing out of the secondhand shop "Ayaka JUNK SHOP". The surrounding members were stunned, and only then did the atmosphere in the shop ease a little.

To be honest, just now, the other members, including Gridman, realized that Subaru was also one of the most powerful Ultramen. According to Zero's description, Shima and Yamanaka couldn't even imagine what that would be like, let alone come up with a way to fight against that kind of power.

Chise Asukagawa, on the other hand, paid no attention to this so-called cosmic crisis. After all, such things were too vague and abstract. Even if they were to happen, it wouldn't be now. At this moment, what interested her most was the relationship between Subaru and Zero. To be honest, she couldn't tell at all that Subaru and Zero were father and son.

“Mr. Zero..…”

Thinking that everyone wanted to see what was going on, Chise Asuka moved her chair next to the teacher's computer, looked at Zero on the left screen, rubbed her small hands together, and whispered:

Are you and Yuan Mao related as father and son?

"Huh? Oh, this..."
