Ultraman: I Really Didn't Want to Rule the World

However, its brief pause had given Tiga a chance to catch his breath. Looking at the approaching Faibas, Tiga spread his arms, and light focused in front of him.

"Karen!" Nori knew perfectly well what Tiga's gesture meant. But Faibas still didn't stop.

The Zepelion Ray struck Faibas. The giant computer monster did not resist and was directly hit by the ray, slowly turning into dark red light particles and disappearing.

"Karen" watched Faibas disappear, and finally couldn't hold on any longer, kneeling on the ground.

Lina, now awake, walked to his side, placed her hand on his shoulder, and silently comforted the grieving young man.

Sitting in the audience, which is another virtual world, Mami saw everything that happened: how Hong Tu played the game, how Ye Rui cleared the level, and the scene where Kallen was transformed into Faibas and destroyed by Tiga. The girl saw it all clearly.

But because of Carter's departure, she had no idea how to leave the stands, nor could she stop it all. She could only watch as her older sister, with whom she had spent every day, turned into a monster, and then she herself met her death.

Hong Tu suddenly appeared behind her, embraced the girl who was silently weeping, patted her back, and comforted her.

"Sister Karen, sob!" Mami hugged the young man's waist and burst into tears.

Sila, perched on her shoulder, circled around the two of them, trying to comfort Mami, but instead couldn't stop wailing herself.

Hong Tu smiled and said, "It's alright, your sister Karen is still here, don't cry!"

"Really?" The girl sobbed, lifting her head from his arms. Her small face was covered in tears, and her eyes were red and swollen. She looked so pitiful.

Hong Tu wiped away her tears, and with a flick of his finger, a golden card appeared between his fingers, which he then handed to Mami.

Mami took the card and saw the image on it, which was of Faibas, who had just disappeared.

“Your sister Karen is so shrewd, how could she not have a backup plan?” He patted the girl’s head. “Let’s go, let’s find your sister Karen a new body. I wonder what kind of computer she likes.”

Mami sniffed and then gave a big smile: "I think she'd like a TPC computer."

The young man led the girl away from this desolate world, and behind them, the virtual world slowly disappeared.

Chapter 89 The Stolen Time Machine

With Kallen's death, the TPC system was restored, Daigo returned to the base, and all was well at the base.

Except for one backup aircraft that quietly flew out of the base before the system restarted.

Dr. Tango piloted the plane towards the agreed location, with two TPC sealed boxes beside him.

Ye Rui and Lina returned to the base and began checking the base's system security.

Soon, Ye Rui received the message from the hangar.

"Captain! A backup aircraft has gone missing from Hangar One!"

"What?" Captain Megumi's relaxed mood immediately tightened. "Can you find out what happened?"

"I've tried to make contact, but it's been manually disconnected!" Ye Rui tried to connect to the machine's communication again and again, but the screen only showed the words "communication rejected".

"Where's the base's surveillance?"

"The surveillance system just started; it didn't capture who it was."

Captain Megumi had a bad feeling: "Investigate the missing personnel at the base immediately!"

"Captain, the giant stone statue in the lab and the time machine have been stolen!" Ye Rui received another piece of bad news: "Dr. Danhou is missing!"

"Dr. Tango?" Horii looked at him in surprise, walked to the computer, and wanted to confirm.

Stealing important items from TPC is not something an honest scientist would do.

However, Horii's inspection only confirmed the facts: "He actually stole the giant statue and the time machine, and he also took the research data with him."

"Where is that plane now?" Captain Megumi frowned. "Can we intercept it?"

These are very important items and research materials; their theft is no small matter. It would be best to intercept them, but once lost, no one knows what the consequences might be.

"The plane's destination is Kumamoto City!" Nozue finally announced a familiar city.

"Is that Masaki Keigo?" Horii looked at the location and subconsciously thought of the mechanical shark from before.

“Daigo, Rena,” Megumi called out the two of them, “you two immediately pilot the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 and intercept Dr. Tango at all costs.”

"Vice-Captain, Horii, Shinjo, you two pilot the Flying Swallow II and immediately proceed to Masaki Keigo's laboratory. See if you can find him and arrest him."

"Yes!" Everyone accepted the order and set off immediately.

"It's unimaginable that Dr. Tango would do such a thing." Horii piloted the Flying Swallow II towards the Cedik Technology Company.

"No matter what, we must stop him." Zong Fang said with a cold face.

"Damn it!" Shinjo cursed under his breath, and sped up the plane again.

However, Kirino, who was traveling with Masaki, already knew about the GUTS team's reaction and made arrangements in advance.

After the backup plane landed, Daigo and Rena caught up with the plane, but when they made an emergency landing, Dr. Tango, who should have been on board, was nowhere to be found, leaving only an empty plane.

"Captain! We've lost them." Daigo reported the situation to the base.

Immediately afterwards, Munakata reported back: "There's no one in the lab, and Seidk Technology has also failed to locate Masaki Keigo."

"Nothing?" Upon receiving two pieces of bad news, Captain Megumi clenched her index finger and pressed it against her forehead. "Daigo, Rena, you two immediately begin searching along the plane's route. Vice Captain, you two search the vicinity again to see if you can find any clues."

"Yorui, contact the armed forces and order them to conduct a search. Activate satellite search capabilities and immediately search the nearby coastline!"

One order after another was issued in an orderly manner, and everyone began to carry it out.

Meanwhile, Kirino and Masaki met Dr. Tango near the coast and headed to their new laboratory.

"This is a time machine?" Masaki looked at the cone-shaped artifact with a sense of novelty. He had found some technological artifacts left over from the ancient times before, but they were all broken and incomplete items. This was the first time he had seen one so complete.

Kirino pushed up his glasses, stood beside him, and looked at the silver precision instrument with him.

"What about the promised reward? You can't just abandon me after you've served your purpose!" When the Empress saw that neither of them was paying attention to her, she suddenly felt a little flustered.

“Of course, we will keep our promise.” Zhengmu didn’t care about his little scheme. “We have already arranged the laboratory, and there will be no shortage of complete research equipment and funding.”

Queen Dan was relieved and left with one of the people.

"Do you know how to use it?" Masaki asked Kirino, but his hand tried to press a button. The machine was turned on, and Yuzare's image was projected. She started repeating the same words over and over, earnestly pretending that she was just an image.

“Captain Yuzare,” Kirino interrupted her, “I want to talk to you.”

Both individuals possessed light genes and could understand her words. Kirino knew even more that this was not a pre-recorded video, but rather the work of an ancient human who had transformed himself into light.

"What do you want to do?" You Lian abandoned her pretense and looked at the two of them with a compassionate expression.

"We want to become light." Kirino didn't waste any more words with her and stated his purpose directly.

Yuzare looked at Kirino and said, "There is only one way to become light, and that is..."

"Daigo turned into light?" Kirino interrupted her. "What we need is the technology to create Titans in the ancient times."

“That’s impossible.” Yu Lian refused his request. “That’s forbidden technology. Humanity creating giants of light will only cause another disaster!”

“But humanity needs it now!” Masaki interrupted her again. “You should know how terrifying the Dark Ruler is!”

“We have Ultraman Tiga,” Yuzare still refused.

“That was the old Tiga,” Kirino pushed up his glasses. “The current Tiga is no match for it. I know you can also see the future, so you should also see that in the future, we will face more than just the Dark Ruler.”

Yu Lian looked up and saw two huge stone statues on the other side of the laboratory wall.

“With your current technology, you simply cannot manufacture a light particle converter.” Yu Lian’s tone softened. “There are two intact machines in Ruruerie.”

Gatanothor is still asleep, but someone has temporarily prolonged its awakening.

With careful attention, its premature awakening can be avoided.

Masaki frowned, not expecting that he would still have to enter R'lyeh in the end. He turned to look at Kirino and found that the man's expression remained unchanged, indicating that he had probably expected this.

"Then I'll leave it to you," Kirino said, indicating that he wanted Yuzare to go in with them.

You Lian wouldn't refuse. There were three dangerous individuals sealed inside, and she naturally had to go along to ensure that those guys wouldn't wake up prematurely, and it would be best to reinforce the seals further.

Chapter 90 The Monster's Decision

"I never expected Tango to do something like this." Sawai walked into the command room, his face unusually cold. "I will order the armed forces to conduct a large-scale search."

Whether it's a time machine or a giant statue, we must retrieve them.

"Director" Captain Kei immediately stood up.

Sawai waved his hand: "But we need to prepare for the worst."

He sat down and looked at Megumi: "Our researchers have actually made some progress on the giant statue. At least, we have made some progress in restoring the statue."

Megumi frowned. Having spent a considerable amount of time at TPC, she naturally understood what Director Sawai meant.

If repair can be done, then it means that replication, or even manufacturing, can also be done.

Once the method for creating the giant statues is revealed, coupled with the method for reviving the giants in the time machine...

"They want to..." Megumi looked at Sawai in disbelief. Whether it was the research on TPC, or the purpose of those who stole the stone statue and the time machine, it all made her feel inexplicably panicked.

Sawai raised her hand, interrupting her, but did not deny it: "So, we must get the things back."

Your winning team needs to be prepared at any time, just in case.

"Yes!" Megumi Kijima instinctively stood at attention and accepted the order, for this matter was indeed of great importance.

In the secret laboratory, Masaki and Kirino also began preparations for their journey to R'lyeh. R'lyeh is now deep beneath the sea, and after thirty million years of changes, finding it will be difficult.

Fortunately, they had Yu Lian's help.

Meanwhile, Hong Tu obediently continued to raise Mami, and under Karen's guidance, personally created a new computer body for Karen.

As for why she didn't just make it into a robot, Karen said she refused, as she didn't trust Hongtu's aesthetic sense, so she would make it herself afterward.

Having died once, Karen deleted her emotional data regarding Nori, and also cleanly deleted all information about him, causing Mami to be extremely cautious and dare not mention anything about Nori in front of her.

This cautious gesture made Hong Tu unable to suppress his laughter, but out of consideration for the girl's feelings, he forced himself to hold it in and did not laugh out loud in front of her.

Therefore, the tanuki's tavern became a good place to confide.

“Little Mami is so cute!” Hong Tu excitedly pulled the two “people” opposite her, showing them how adorable her two children were.

The man and woman opposite them listened awkwardly, both with stiff smiles.
