Ultraman, is this defense team up with you?

“I have tested it. The energy contained in this medal seems to be similar to that of the Specium Ray, and it has the effect of destroying objects at the molecular level.”

"What do you mean?"

Cerebro: "???" Are you a pig?

Cerebro increasingly regretted choosing this woman.

However... thinking about it from another angle, the dumber they are, the easier they are to control, which makes me feel more at ease.

"What I mean is, this beam can be replicated to deal with the alien beasts, and it can also be used as a beam for special mission aircraft, unlike the Specium Beam of the Flying Swallow!"

"That's right! Alien Beast!!! You've really been a huge help!"

It was only after a long time that Mai finally realized the existence of the progenitor alien beasts that were ravaging South America, and that these alien beasts were a real world-ending threat.

If only special mission aircraft can emit such beams, the funding would be considerable.

Having finally figured it all out, Makoto Kisaki immediately slapped her thigh, then stood up and ran quickly to report to the director.

Cerebro watched Mai Yui leave.

He sat down in the other person's seat, rolled his eyes in disgust, and rested his chin on his armrest, waiting for the result.

...

...

The time came to 8 a.m. the next morning.

Kirisaki is currently working overtime with the scientists from Mai Yuki's side to try to recreate Nexus's beam in order to destroy the Progenitor Beast.

Inside a room resembling the GUTS command center.

Sawai is currently assessing the aliens who have come to apply for jobs at XIG, accompanied by Jugglus Juggler, Carmilla, Ye Cheng, Yoko, and Asuna.

Basically, Yoko and Asuna are confirmed to be removed from the GUTS team.

The good news is that the transition to XIG was seamless!

Furthermore, at least one person has secured the position of captain or vice-captain, making it easier for higher-ups to better understand this alien-formed defense force.

The reason why not both of them are captains is quite simple: they don't trust Belial.

As the applicant entered the room, everyone's eyes were immediately drawn to his large mouth and his large, orange-red body.

Ye Cheng and his two companions were alright, as they were prepared.

But other TPC employees, including Sawai, seemed a little nervous.

Especially its enormous mouth, which seemed capable of swallowing a human head whole, created a very oppressive atmosphere.

"Dr. Gehrman from Vantonian? Are you here to apply for a technology position?"

"Yes, Director, this is my resume that I prepared overnight. It records some of my technical skills and corresponding characteristics."

The densely packed documents were overwhelming, but Sawai still read them all carefully.

After watching it, I became incredibly enthusiastic.

If Dr. Gehrman wasn't lying, then it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was knowledgeable in everything from astronomy to geography; he could be a treasure that revitalizes Earth's civilization and deserves special protection, just like Kirisaki.

Dr. Gehrman was soon taken away to be tested to see if he had any real skills.

As Dr. Gehrman left, the second applicant entered the room, and to many people's surprise, this one was a human male.

"Dr. Agamus, a Bazit alien?"

"Yes, Director! If there's a conflict of interest, I can also apply for a weapons or technology position. I'm skilled at manufacturing mechanical weapons that are tens of meters long."

Chapter 57 Jugglus Juggler: Dyna? My head is about to split open!

"Dr. Agamus, the records show that you previously worked at TPC under the name Asakage Yuichiro?"

"Yes, Director. That was the name I adopted after my homeland was destroyed by the Sphia and I fled to Earth, imitating the Earthlings. I joined TPC because I was worried that the Sphia might invade Earth as well, and I wanted to do my part for my second homeland."

Sphia? Fleeing!

When the two keywords connected, Agamemos said he was good at creating giant mechanical weapons, and Sawai's heart skipped a beat.

“Dr. Agamus, I apologize if I may have to bring up your painful past…”

“I…” Agamus’s expression froze, and he lowered his head sadly. After a moment, his gaze became incredibly resolute and fervent!

"No problem, Director, please feel free to ask."

"The Doctor's hometown was destroyed by Sphia. In the process, did the mechanical weapons that the Doctor was good at creating fail to work?"

"Initially, it was indeed ineffective. The mechanical weapons, after being possessed and fused with Sphia, actually became the enemy that destroyed the defense line of Bazit Star."

Everyone understood immediately. Was it true? Mechanical weapons were indeed countered by Sphia.

But... it wasn't there initially?

Sensing Agamous's choice of words, Sawai and even the other executives next door all perked up.

"That's right! After the upgrade, the module to eliminate Sphia was added, which gradually stabilized the battle line. I suggested expanding the number, but the higher-ups did not approve. As a result, Sphia suddenly sent out more and stronger fusion beasts at the same time. The mechanical weapons were not enough to fight alone. Sphia destroyed Bazit Star, leaving me alone to escape to Earth in an exploration spaceship..."

As he finished speaking, a fierce hatred flashed in Agamus's eyes! His fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"So when the Sphia appeared on Earth, I was very anxious. When I saw that you, Director, were showing goodwill, I came without hesitation! Director! Please let me join XIG! I'll do anything for you!!!" Agamus bowed deeply and pleaded.

Instead of answering the request directly, Sawai asked a question.

"Should I now address the Doctor as Asakage Yuichiro? Or Agamous?"

"This... of course it's Asakage Yuichiro, I'm now an Earthling named Asakage!"

"Okay, Dr. Asakage, you can go back to your original post now. We'll notify you as soon as there are any changes." Sawai said with a smile.

"Thank you, Director! Thank you, Director!!!" Chaoying bowed repeatedly and reluctantly left the room.

After he left, Sawai frowned slightly.

Although Chaoying seemed fine, he just had an uneasy feeling about her, and it was because of their deep-seated hatred.

While I was pondering, a few more people entered the room.

It was Yoshioka, who was watching the live stream next door, and several other branch executives who had not yet left.

Unlike Dr. Gehrman's unremarkable involvement, Agamous's tragic and extreme experiences sparked controversy, leading to this scene.

"How is it?" Sawai asked the others.

"He seems pretty good. He has a strong desire for revenge, making him a suitable candidate for recruitment," He Zhi was the first to give his approval.

If Gondo were there, he would probably have said, "Indeed."

However, he is no longer with TPC and is currently leading a team to search for other Ultraman statues.

"He's prone to extremes, so we still need to keep a close eye on him. We shouldn't let him get involved in management or information technology fields; let him focus solely on developing weapons technology," Yoshioka said, somewhat worried.

Sawai nodded inwardly, thinking that his old friend Yoshioka's perspective was more comprehensive.

“We must strictly supervise them! If necessary…” Hirai Hiroyuki’s eyes were cold, and his gaze inadvertently swept over Yoko and Asuna.

Hiiragi Hiroyuki's cold, wary gaze made the two women feel uneasy.

Is this the consequence of revealing one's identity?

The low mood persisted until a tall figure blocked his way.

Looking up in surprise, what came into view was the familiar Victory team jersey and the prominent "Ye Cheng" name in pinyin on the back.

The figure's act of stepping forward instantly gave the two women a strong sense of security, a warmth spreading through their hearts, and their discontent gradually dissipated under the influence of this warm current.

Hiroyuki Hiiragi saw everything.

The frontline soldiers' concern, coupled with the thought that the two women were originally Earthlings and victims of alien modification, immediately brought a look of hesitation, struggle, and confusion to their eyes.

"If one becomes trapped in hatred and cannot extricate oneself, it will inevitably lead to an even greater tragedy." After saying this, Sawai glanced at He Zhi and then at Hiiragi Hiroyuki.

Upon hearing this, He Zhi clenched his fists involuntarily, a moment of bewilderment and hesitation appearing on his face.

The despair and wails of his teammates before their deaths flashed before his eyes again...

After the initial shock of grief, He Zhi, his fists clenched, regained his resolve.

"Someone has to do something for the dead! The crisis in North America isn't over yet, so I'm going back."

As He Zhi left with a resolute, cold face, his words gradually strengthened Hiiragi Hiroyuki's previously confused gaze.

He looked at Yoko and Asuna with a hint of apology.

His expression then gradually became serious and firm as he looked solemnly at Sawai.

"Director Sawai, there are some things I didn't want to do, but we had no choice. I hope you understand! I'm going back now."

Watching the two leave one after the other, Yoshioka frowned, and Sawai sighed.

After that, no other applicant possessed the technical skills of those two individuals, and their abilities fell far short of being considered astounding.

In the end, the Shad alien Zena and the Guregor alien Gureth were chosen.

One is an important character in Geed, and the other is a supporting character in Deka.

Zena, whose home planet Shad was destroyed by civil war due to the Shad people's innate fighting instincts, is determined to establish an interstellar peace alliance where all races can understand each other and live in peace.

Sawai and he hit it off immediately, and had an in-depth discussion about their vision and desire for peace.

During this time, Sawai discovers that although Zena is a notorious Shad alien, known as a space guerrilla, he genuinely has a deep desire and vision for peace.

Therefore, Sawai overruled everyone's objections.

He made a very bold decision to appoint Zena as the vice-captain of XIG, showing him great trust.

Compared to Agamus's outward display of emotion, Zena, even after being directly appointed, did not show much emotional fluctuation.

The only thing Zena trusted was Sawai, and he responded with the true man's promise never to let her down.

Gureth is relatively simple.

The Guregor aliens are known for their fighting skills and martial arts masters, who can fight at a gigantic size similar to Ultraman. Guregor himself inherited these characteristics and believed in fair and just battles!

These people, like Jugglus Juggler, came from a wormhole, but not all of them knew that they had come to another universe.

Ultimately, taking into account the opinions of the remaining senior management and the members of the winning team,

XIG's captain is Yoko, vice-captain is Zena, and members are Asuna, Asakage, and Gureth.

In addition, Sawai revoked the first-team player status of Helotia and Kirisaki.

Instead, he partnered with Dr. Gehrman to establish the TPC Super Research Department, providing technical and equipment support to the GUTS and XIG teams.

At Yoshioka's suggestion, Emi was recruited to join the Victory Team, filling the ecological niche originally occupied by Helotia.

So, the victorious team, which consisted entirely of non-humans, finally welcomed its first pure-blooded human! Tears well up! Ohhhhhh!

This is the current staffing list; we can add more if new talent joins later.

TPC also made a record of the aliens who did not get the job and promised them that they could live on Earth in disguise or reveal their true forms, but the latter was not recommended as it was easy to cause trouble in the early stages.

But why specifically mention the second one?

The truth is that Sawai hopes that aliens can live openly in the sunlight, just as he originally wanted, to peacefully put aside disputes. Mentioning the second option is also a subtle way of encouraging the pioneers.

Furthermore, Sawai is prepared to personally appear on camera to speak out for these aliens.

People are encouraged to try to accept the appearance of benevolent aliens and monsters in their lives, while ensuring their own safety.

Once the assessment is complete, XIG's office space will be approved soon.

Meanwhile, the Victory Team and the others were preparing to depart.

"Everyone, your duty is to hold off the Progenitor Alien Beast and prevent it from causing even greater casualties. Once Kirisaki and Dr. Gehrman successfully replicate the beam that can destroy the Alien Beast, they will rush to provide support!"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
