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

Because of the water pressure, her body couldn't withstand it and was squeezed beyond recognition, but her blue spirit body separated from her body and still stubbornly rushed towards the black door.

The last soul of the fallen tribe, pitiful and desperate for revenge, has now rushed headlong into death.

The mechanism of the Kirieloid God Gate was triggered, and the originally closed gate slowly opened, ignoring the water pressure.

A mixture of gray and black "gas" spread out from inside the door and began to diffuse.

The outer barrier of R'lyeh had just begun to glow faintly when it was corroded by the polluted gas. After flickering twice, cracks appeared.

Seawater seeped through the cracks and into the ruins, along with the black mist.

Chapter 96 Awakening

The cracks widened, and seawater poured in more and more. Finally, the white barrier could no longer withstand the pressure and shattered into countless fragments of light, which gradually dissipated into particles of light and disappeared.

The seawater completely flooded the ruins, churning and destroying everything in its path, including the gate that Yu Lian had just reinforced with a barrier. The filthy seawater washed it open, exposing the three giant stone statues inside to the water...

The murky mist surrounding the giant stone statues eventually slowly merged into the timers on their chests.

After the structures on the surface of R'lyeh were destroyed, the countless enormous black eggs hidden beneath were revealed.

Most of the eggs were broken due to the excessive impact, revealing the bird-like monsters inside that were not yet fully hatched. They were exposed to the seawater and could not even scream, as they were crushed to death by the water pressure.

Only a few eggs survive, absorbing these dark forces.

The gray-black mist inside the gate seemed endless, constantly surging out, but the vast majority of it was not absorbed by the three dark giants and the monster egg, but slowly sank into the deeper seawater.

That is where the ruler of darkness sleeps.

Hong Tu turned his head alertly, sensing something was wrong. It seemed as if a huge negative energy was appearing deep in the sea, and even the card he had placed there beforehand was disturbed.

"What's wrong?" Mami noticed that the young man suddenly stood up, his expression serious, as if something very serious had happened.

She had never seen the young man with this expression before...

"Mami, stay home and don't wander off!" Hong Tu said before disappearing.

Sitting in the submarine, Kirino suddenly trembled, as if he had seen something terrifying. He was covered in cold sweat and was so frightened that he forgot to breathe.

"What's wrong with you?" Masaki was about to investigate the strange energy fluctuations detected on the radar when he sensed something amiss with the person next to him. "Breathe! Hey! Hey!"

He roughly patted Kirino on the back, trying to wake him up quickly.

This move was somewhat effective; Kirino was so badly hit that he had trouble breathing and couldn't stop coughing, but at least he remembered to breathe.

After coughing heavily a few times, Kirino, before she could catch her breath, grabbed Masaki's arm: "It's waking up!"

"What did you say..." Masaki's face stiffened. "Who did you say has awakened?!"

"Quick, let's go! It's about to wake up!"

Without asking any further questions, Masaki immediately turned around, accelerated the submarine, and, ignoring any water pressure issues, began to surface with full force.

At the same time, he also turned on the radar and saw the black fog gradually spreading up from beneath the seawater...

"Damn it!" That guy still woke up!

The submarine was surfacing with all its might, and the black fog was moving quickly and covering a wider area; it was already catching up with them.

Hong Tu suddenly appeared in the sea. He reached out his hand towards the spreading black mist. His scarlet eyes were extremely conspicuous in the dark sea. The spreading black mist could not pass by him and was slowly absorbed by him.

Behind him, the submarine had already sailed away, leaving only the young man, who was gradually swallowed up by the dense darkness.

"Your good father seems to have shielded us from danger." Seeing that he was out of danger, Masaki gradually relaxed. Although he did not stop operating the submarine, his tense nerves had relaxed slightly. But then he began to mock Kirino.

"..." Kirino didn't say anything; he had seen that scene.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Masaki was getting annoyed at not getting a response. "You said that as long as we don't disturb it, it won't wake up at all!"

But now, it's awake!

Yu Lian emerged from the time machine, her gaze passing through the submarine's walls to the depths of the sea: "It wasn't us. There was another being who awakened it with dark power."

“Kirieloids…” Kirino’s body was still trembling. Just now, his superpowers had allowed him to confront those resentful and unwilling souls, as well as the dark rulers who had already opened their eyes.

Although all that could be seen was a blurry, enormous body and two scarlet eyes, the pressure he endured was unimaginable. If he hadn't seen the darkness of the crimson chakra every day, he probably would have been completely lost in that terrifying despair and destruction.

Can that thing really be defeated? Can the Dark Ruler, which has absorbed all the resentment of the Kirieloids, really be defeated?

Masaki looked at Yuzare with annoyance: "Damn it, why did I have to go to Lulua with you guys? If I had just taken that thing's medium directly, none of this would have happened! That thing wouldn't have awakened prematurely!"

Yu Lian looked at him quietly without saying a word. Seeing her expression, Zheng Mu became even more impatient, but ultimately said nothing more.

Since things have come to this point, there's no point in saying anything more. It's better to hurry back to the lab, start the experiment immediately, and transform myself into a giant, so that I won't be left helpless when facing that thing.

The black mist spread too widely and in too large a quantity. In addition, the power contained in these dark forces was too chaotic, making it difficult for Hong Tu to consume. Therefore, some of it continued to spread upwards.

Elsewhere, the black fog has spread to the sea surface, and the first to be affected are the various TPC bases on the sea.

The black mist slowly spread, starting from the bottom of the base. All the machines and equipment it touched lost their function, and the life forms it touched quickly cried out and lost their vitality.

This scene is like the end of the world.

As the electrical system at the bottom was corroded, the command room at the top also lost its power supply and was plunged into darkness.

The black mist continued to spread, like an unknown entity that devoured everything, and nothing could withstand it.

"How could this happen..." Ye Rui manipulated the computer, trying to restart it, but to no avail. He suddenly remembered what Karen had said earlier...

Humanity is on the verge of extinction...

"Yorui! Don't panic!" Megumi noticed Yerui's panic and reassured him to cheer up.

Ye Rui was pulled back to reality by her voice: "I'll activate the auxiliary system immediately!"

The auxiliary systems deployed on the sea surface were immediately activated, and the base finally regained power.

"Control the Atlas and immediately move to a safe hangar. Prepare to... abandon the base and evacuate all personnel!" Sawai made the final, decisive evacuation order.

The black fog was already spreading into the command room; they had to evacuate immediately.

The Victory Team began an emergency evacuation, while Red Tea continued to devour the darkness within the black mist.

The dark ring had floated in front of him, its red light brighter than ever before, helping him to devour and transform these dark forces.

More, more...

Hong Tu felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. This unbridled consumption and the gradual strengthening of herself without any restraint was simply wonderful.

The young man opened his eyes, and the red in his eyes gradually intensified, even approaching black.

The crimson, almost black eyes met directly into a pair of savage, giant, scarlet pupils emerging from the depths of the sea!

Two pairs of eyes, vastly different in size and barely able to meet each other's gaze due to the distance, were filled with a desire to devour the other...

Chapter 97 I Don't Understand

The Dark Ruler's head is upside down, but that doesn't stop it from capturing Red Tea.

Long tentacles swiftly swept across the seawater, stirring up ripples, and reached towards Hong Tu.

Hong Tu suppressed the hunger stirring within him, watched the tentacles draw ever closer, laughed arrogantly, and his body gradually dissipated.

No rush. The sea isn't his forte. He needs to lure this thing up there. Besides, this guy woke up rather quickly, and his preparations aren't quite complete yet.

Don't be too hasty...

With the youth gone, the tentacles were no longer bound, only holding back the seawater. The Dark Ruler roared angrily and reluctantly floated to the surface.

Where, where? Pure darkness! That's it! Eat! Evolve! Escape...Earth!

The Dark Ruler went mad. Hong Tu appeared on the submarine that was about to reach the surface and disappeared without stopping, taking the submarine with him.

"Bang!" The submarine landed heavily, and Hong Tu nimbly jumped off the submarine.

"You can come out now."

The submarine door opened, and Masaki emerged first, followed by Kirino. The two stood to one side, one staring intently at Hongtu with undisguised greed in his eyes, while the other looked elsewhere, seemingly oblivious to him.

Yu Lian appeared directly in front of him: "Darkness has awakened." She paused, then realized her words weren't quite right and added, "The rulers of darkness have awakened, and the darkness hidden within R'lyeh is about to awaken as well. We must stop them!"

Hong Tu narrowed his eyes: "Kirieloids?"

He sensed the presence of the Kirieloid spirit. He hadn't expected any rats to survive.

“The Kirieloids have a door they call the Kirieloid God’s Gate. It’s a warp, and inside it lies the dark power they’ve accumulated,” Youlian said, looking at Hongtu. “We must stop the Dark Ruler from continuing to devour that dark power.”

The consequences of not stopping it are obvious to everyone.

Hong Tu nodded indifferently: "I understand. Whatever your plans are, just carry them out quickly."

He didn't believe these three had gone to the bottom of the sea just to see the Dark Ruler. Everyone should share their plans; it's come to this point.

After saying that, the young man disappeared again.

Only after he disappeared did Kirino raise his head, silently re-enter the submarine, and together with Masaki, bring out the light particle converter again.

Now, they need to activate this thing as soon as possible to create a second Giant of Light.

In the corner, a yellow country dog ​​watched them bustling about, tilting its head slightly and obediently remaining silent.

The outside world has fallen into complete chaos.

Gatanothor had surfaced, its massive body covered in tentacles, its upside-down head raised to the sky as if calling out for something.

The black fog spread across the sea, then onto land, and is spreading globally.

Guided by the police and TPC logistics personnel, people began to flock to air-raid shelters in large numbers.

All the personnel from TPC Far East gradually boarded the Atdis, leaving only three people in the Victory Team's command room...

“You have no obligation to face an enemy you can't possibly defeat.” Megumi looked at Daigo. “You should understand, right?”

Ultraman is not a god; he is also a human being. And a person does not need to bear the hopes of an entire race. That is neither Ultraman's responsibility nor that of an individual alone.

Daigo turned around, stubbornly staring at her and Rena: "I don't understand anything about not being able to win!"

So what if he can't win? He has to do it. His partners and loved ones are here. He has to defeat them!

“That’s right,” a male voice suddenly interrupted their conversation, “There’s no way we can win. It doesn’t exist.”
