Saiyan stowaways on the Ark

"The results have exceeded expectations!!! Didn't you have the ability to launch energy?! Didn't you have the energy to flatten an entire city?"

"Why can't you prove my greatness? Why can't you prove my talent? Why, with such immense ability, do you choose to run away?!"

"Why don't you just self-destruct, like these Originium bugs here? Detonate yourself! Use unprecedented energy to wipe out all life in this damn desert!!!"

Levi, kneeling on one knee, gazed at the horizon amidst the sandstorm, pounding the sand and roaring furiously.

The results exceeded expectations.

But the result was very disappointing.

It's actually afraid of a monkey?

Shameful, pathetic, and laughable.

Levy's dignity had already determined that this creature was a failed creation.

But all he could do was writhe in powerless rage.

"Ah...that's right, it must be a lack of wisdom, it must be that it hasn't reached its complete form yet..."

"If only... if only I could become the complete form..."

"Everything will be perfect!!!"

He raced forward against the wind and sand, rushing toward the distant horizon, changing his form as if he were a winged sphere.

The essence of evolution has evolved once again; it has changed its form, allowing it to fly in the night sky.

It's not safe to talk about something that's only a short distance away.

It wanted to escape.

Levi couldn't catch it, and it didn't know who Levi was, so it would never actively pursue a madman running wildly in the desert.

"...Don't even think about escaping."

The giant ape set foot, and rough but clear language came from its mouth.

A golden energy wave spread from the soles of his feet and was well controlled within a certain range, directly evaporating all the deformed creatures under his feet and burning them, along with the nearby sand, into crystal clear glass.

It opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of sharp fangs, but not to bite down on the essence of evolution, which was far away.

The red light, like flames, emanated from his throat and overflowed from the corners of his mouth, as if a burning sun were being held in his mouth.

"Roar!!!!!"

A deafening roar erupted.

A straight rift was pierced through the air, and crimson light obscured the brilliance of the twin moons, instantly swallowing the essence of evolution at the edge of the earth.

[Event] Originium Dust Operation: Chapter 25 (You Know What I Mean)

"The legendary Terra Sacred Ape... I've heard of it! While causing destruction, it has also inexplicably helped people; it's a mysterious beast that's both good and evil! Some have even heard it speak human language!"

Information about Changquan Town is not that isolated.

As a town in the Sargon Desert, it was often occupied by merchants or military groups seeking supplies.

The rumors they spread were far more numerous and interesting than those brought by the sandstorms.

The demolition of the Ursus capital's council hall by Gwendigo, the overnight construction of the Siesta artificial island, the unification of the Sargon rainforest tribes by the Hooded Barbarians, and even earlier events like the dragons wreaking havoc in Chernobog, the Kjerag warlords' war of independence, and Regent Victoria's second hospitalization...

From major international events to everyday gossip, the residents of Changquan Town find a unique kind of enjoyment in everything they do.

This includes sightings of giant apes in unpredictable locations.

When the news reached Longspring, the old lord was still alive. Monster sightings were generally dismissed as absurd rumors, or there was no need to worry about it running off to Sargon.

However, different people brought different versions. Some said they had seen it in Yan, some said they had seen it in Victoria, and some even said they had seen it in Iberia and the northern snowfields.

They all have some video evidence to prove that the rumors are true.

That would be much more serious.

God knows how it appeared on both the east and west sides of the earth in a single day.

It might actually manage to hop over to the Sargon region.

—And it did appear, at a time when it was desperately needed, it descended and utterly crushed the attacking behemoth.

Just as the rumors described.

The monster, which was much larger than it, could only flee in panic and was then annihilated without any resistance.

More than once, people have received protection from it.

So much so that rumors have circulated that some people have already revered this monster as a god and worshipped it.

But clearly, whether it actually intends to do so or not, the objects of its protection are never concerned with whether others believe in it or not.

At least Pigal was certain that no one was practicing any great ape worship in Longspring.

"...What sacred giant ape? The rumors have gone so far as to be ridiculous? And what makes it look sacred?"

The sandstorm has subsided, and the ground is now covered with a thick layer of sand.

But it's better than being overwhelmed by aberrations.

Emerging from behind the wall that served as cover, Franka, covered in yellow sand, shook her body like a drill to shake off the dust from head to toe, while making astonished remarks to Pigal.

"It's normal for different regions to use different names... Also, were you deliberately trying to implicate me?"

Razer, now covered in even more yellow sand, glared resentfully at his colleague, but the culprit just chuckled and brushed it off.

After the sandstorm subsided, the members of the Rainbow Squad emerged from their hiding places to assess the surrounding situation.

The current situation is much better than the worst-case scenario they had anticipated.

Most of the sand was blocked by the outer wall, and most of the people had already taken refuge in their homes due to the previous riots.

Afterwards, all that's needed is to mobilize people to clean up the sand and dust, something the locals are very familiar with.

"...Is that King Kong? And is there also a giant lizard, sixty meters tall, that can breathe light?"

Blitzkrieg finally said what he had wanted to say since he first saw the giant ape.

"King Kong's appearance is clearly that of a rainforest gorilla; the creature's skull is unlike any ape I've ever seen while hunting."

However, Shuanghua responded to his joking remarks with her own personal experience.

"So we don't need to be wary of that monster? Although it did help us a lot, it also has the ability to vaporize us."

The tank served as a reminder to everyone, while occasionally glancing worriedly at the gun in its hand.

With such a strong sandstorm, it looks like we'll have to clean it up properly.

"Don't worry too much. It's not a monster that kills indiscriminately, nor does it stand on either side. I suggest you treat it as a natural phenomenon."

The ranger's smooth scales were free of any sand or dirt. He patted his uniform to remove a little dust and answered the questioning chariot.

"Being wary of it, respecting it, and being curious about it are all freedoms, but if you don't have absolute certainty, don't touch it casually. It's better for everyone."

"Sir, what is your... or rather, what is your view on it?"

Like the Chariot, Ash harbored doubts and concerns about the existence of the Giant Ape, but neither of them raised their guns or pointed them in that direction.

She asked the forest ranger, trying to sort out her chaotic thoughts caused by the constant reshaping of her worldview.

I keep thinking I'll never be surprised again, but I'm always shocked by reality.

This is the world they will be living in for a long time. How many times will this kind of thing happen?

"This old man? As for me... I'll just observe it, nothing more."

The forest ranger gave an answer that did not reveal too much of his subjective opinion.

Ashes stopped asking questions.

Because at that moment, the eyes of the people present met those of the giant ape with blood-red eyes.

The air seemed to freeze, and everyone was imagining what would happen next.

Perhaps another beam of light will soon burst from its mouth, erasing Changquan Town from the map.

But it didn't. It simply leaped high into the air, soaring above the clouds, transforming into a tiny star, and disappearing from everyone's sight.

"They are... gods in the heavens... not filthy creatures hidden beneath the earth or the 'sea'..."

A trembling voice, seemingly from nowhere, stirred the guards' emotions.

One by one, they laid down their weapons, knelt on the ground with their sand-covered bodies, and expressed their sincere gratitude to the giant ape for its help.

Pigal was left standing there, bewildered.

Although she was also moved by the giant ape's divine power, she would not easily bend her knees and offer her faith.

But she chose to turn a blind eye to the prayers of these devout soldiers.

"Oh, Mr. Thomas, where have you been? We were so worried about you."

The abrupt greeting came from Hei, who was standing nearby and hadn't participated in the discussion.

She looked toward a corner of the royal palace and spoke loudly to attract the attention of others.

Tomat was slowly walking towards them from the direction where the black man had spoken, covered in dust as if he had just crawled out of the ground.

"Oh, it's nothing, it was just blown away by the wind. That monster has already been dealt with?"

Thomas waved his hand, looking like he'd missed a good show, and walked back into the crowd.

Flash showed a hesitant expression, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

He always felt that this kind of plot seemed to appear frequently in some works.

But this idea is just too crazy, no matter how you look at it.

"Then, once we've finished taking care of the rest, let's head back to Rhodes Island."

Thomas suggested, and the various changes that everyone had experienced in Longspring Town finally came to an end.

[Event] Originium Dust Operation: Final Chapter - Welcome to Terra

"To everyone at Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, and to the unknown wandering mercenary, I extend my gratitude. You stepped forward when Longspring was in peril, helping us repel the thugs and monsters, and even assisting with the reconstruction of Longspring afterward. Well, I'm not good at these formalities; all I want to say is..."
