Tiga let out a painful cry as his entire body plummeted from mid-air. During his fall, he forcibly twisted his posture, switching back to his agile aerial form, attempting to create distance through high-speed maneuvers.

The Kirieloid disdainfully flapped its golden wings, moving even faster than the aerial type.

In this "home field" that belongs to it, it toyed with the weary giant like a cat playing with a mouse.

"My God! It's even faster than Ultraman Tiga!" Hayato Hayama exclaimed in horror from the ground.

In mid-air, the Kirieloid suddenly clasped his hands together, then abruptly opened them.

Countless fireballs radiating destructive power rained down on Tiga like a meteor shower. Tiga desperately dodged and weaved in mid-air, only to discover that one of the enormous fireballs was flying straight toward the news helicopter!

If it hits, it will definitely result in the destruction of the machine and the loss of life!

"Ah!!!" The people inside the helicopter screamed in despair.

"No!!!"

- Om!

The next second, a huge body suddenly blocked the helicopter's path.

boom--!

The explosion erupted on the giant's broad back, flames engulfing his shoulder armor.

In the flames of the explosion, Tiga's huge, milky-white eyes met those of the people in the helicopter in front of him.

"Tiga...Tiga".

The host trembled as she got up. At that moment, she was so close to Ultraman Tiga, and the divine radiance shone brighter than the sun.

She will probably never forget this scene for the rest of her life.

Despite the pain, Tiga nodded gently to the people in the helicopter.

At the same moment, the scene before them was broadcast to every household in the city, and everyone watching the live stream was deeply moved by what seemed like a miracle.

The Four Palaces Residence.

"Ah... Hayasaka! Can you please be quiet!"

Kaguya Shinomiya clutched her head and wailed. She had somehow produced a long chain that firmly bound Ai Hayasaka to a chair, and casually taped her mouth shut.

For some reason, Hayasaka Ai didn't put up much resistance from beginning to end. She just kept rocking the chair and staring blankly at the screen.

The next second, the giant's gentle eyes appeared on the screen.

Hayasaka Ai met his gaze, and at that moment, she suddenly became much calmer...

……

However, the moment Tiga turned his head, the Kirieloid rushed over ferociously, its five fingers forming claws, and gripped Tiga's throat tightly!

"just---!!"

“Cha…” Tiga let out a painful howl, struggling with his hands but having no strength left, his legs swinging limply in the air.

At the same time, the remaining fireballs, now unstoppable, crashed into the crowd like meteorites.

In an instant, flames appeared on the ground.

"What's going on?!?"

"Angels...why are the angels attacking us!"

"My legs! Aaaaaah!"

Screams instantly replaced prayers. The crowd was finally awakened by the baptism of blood and fire. Cries and curses replaced the previous praises, and fear spread wildly along the coastline.

"Everyone! Run this way! Don't look back!" Hibino Mirai anxiously directed the evacuation of the people. He looked at the painful figure of Danzi Lian in the sky but was powerless to do anything about it, and his heart was filled with great pain.

He was about to call out to Kaisan when he suddenly realized that Red Kai was gone.

"Kaisan?!"

He searched everywhere and finally found Hong Kai in a dark corner deep in the forest.

At this moment, the rogue was filled with humiliation and helplessness. He gripped the broken Orb Ring tightly and let out a beast-like growl. The ring flashed blue light again and again and then dimmed again and again.

"Bastard...bastard!!!"

Hong Kai's eyes were bloodshot, and his fingernails dug deep into his palms, drawing blood.

"Kaisan, what are you doing?!" Mirai rushed over and pulled Kai away. "Forcing light energy like this will cause the source to shatter even more!"

"In the future! Duan Zilian is about to be killed by that demon!! But I... I can't do anything about it!!!"

This former hero is now watching helplessly as his successor goes to his death; this humiliation is worse than death itself.

Hong Kai slammed his fist into the tree trunk, smashing the originally tough bark to pieces.

"Kai-san!! No one can save you like this, not only can you not save Duan-kun! You'll even lose your own life!" Mirai almost roared. This was the first time Kai had ever seen Hibino Mirai angry.

……

High in the sky.

"Aaaaaah! I can't take it anymore!"

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from Xincheng over the communication channel.

He completely ignored the orders from headquarters, and the F-16 shot out like an arrow, heading straight for the Kirieloids!

"Xincheng! What are you doing! Come back quickly!!"

"I'm doing what I believe is right! What's the point of having this uniform if even the Guardians are to be executed?!" Shinjo roared, turning the F-16's parameters to maximum.

The next second, the roar of engines shattered the clouds! Steel wingtips sliced ​​through the black mist!

"We can't let you ruin this place!"

Shinjo gripped the joystick tightly, unleashing a barrage of missiles at extremely close range onto the backs of the Kirieloids!

"Die, you false god!"

boom--!

The explosion caused the Kirielod man to release his grip in pain and stagger.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tiga broke free. Duan Zilian stared in surprise at the fighter jet flying in the air, not yet able to react.

Enraged, the Kirieloids fired four Hellfire Bullets at the New City's fighter jets!

"Damn! This body is so tough!"

Shinjo cursed and frantically manipulated the joystick. The fighter jet leaped through the air, narrowly avoiding three shots, but couldn't dodge the last one.

With a deafening roar, the explosion destroyed the fighter jet's left wing. The jet circled, billowing smoke, and lost its balance in the sky.

An alarm sounded in the cockpit, thick smoke billowed out, and Shinjo coughed violently from the smoke.

He pulled the control stick frantically, but the fighter jet remained unmoved, and the altitude data on the instrument panel continued to decrease.

"Xincheng, jump! Jump now!!" a teammate shouted frantically over the comms.

"The parachute is malfunctioning!" Xincheng repeatedly pressed the parachute button, but there was no response.

"What?!" A chorus of exclamations erupted in the communication channel.

"Tch, what bad luck, but..." Shinjo slammed his fist on the dashboard, then seemed to suddenly feel relieved, leaned back in his seat, and let out a long sigh.

"That was awesome!!!!" He cheerfully swung his fist, like a child.

In the final moments, the fighter jet flew past Tiga's side, and Shinjo looked at Tiga through the glass.

"Don't let it defeat you, Ultraman Tiga."

Shinjo suddenly gave Tiga a thumbs-up, revealing a set of white teeth, and then followed the fighter jet as it plummeted into the deep sea.

Chapter 41 Death! The Truth Emerges!

"!!!"

Tiga suddenly swooped down in the direction the plane was crashing, reaching out to try and pull the person inside back before the fighter jet disintegrated, but was grabbed tightly from behind by the Kirieloid in mid-air.

The golden false god leaned close to Tiga's ear, but the voice it emitted was like a venomous snake from the abyss:

"That's so touching... Ultraman Tiga."

The voice of the Kirieloid echoed in Duan Zilian's mind, carrying a condescending mockery: "Look at those people down below, Tiga."

"They treat you like a demon that brings calamity, they cheer for every time you get beaten, and yet you expose your back to me to protect these foolish insects?"

"You don't know anything... bullshit..."

The red timer is flashing faster and faster, as if it will stop at any moment.

Duan Zilian gritted his teeth, a feeling of suffocation instantly flooding his brain, and he struggled desperately in mid-air.

"They were just... fooled by your disgusting illusion..."

"The truth isn't important; what matters is what they're willing to believe!"

The Kirieloid suddenly tightened its grip, pulling Tiga's head back. "Come, Tiga! In the presence of countless believers, offer your sacrifice for the coming of God!"

"just--!"

Tiga painfully raised his head, letting out a suppressed cry of agony. The timer on his chest sounded an urgent alarm, like a dying heart.

Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong!

"Tiga...Tiga is going to lose..." Yui Yuigahama slumped to the ground, covering her ears with her hands, tears streaming down her face.

Yukino Yukinoshita stood silently in the raging wind, not uttering a word, her cold eyes reflecting the painful, struggling figure in the sky.

The crowd that had been scattering around gradually quieted down.

They stopped and stared blankly at the sky.

The agonizing cries pierced the clouds, like a blunt knife, slicing cruelly through everyone's heart.

"Is the giant...crying?"

“Tiga…he looks…in pain.”

Someone in the crowd whispered something.

……

"What other options are there now?!"

In the shadows of the woods, Hong Kai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan; Duan Zilian was someone he had watched grow up step by step.

From that cowardly high school student who pressed the transformation device back down at the beginning, to this warrior who would risk his life to transform even if the whole world despises him...

"Kaisan, calm down." Hibino Mirai also calmed down and pressed down on Kai's trembling shoulders.

Although his eyes were also wet, his voice carried a certain firmness.

"In this situation, please... trust Duan Jun, trust him, and trust the comrades he has made with his life..."

Let's not wait until the future to finish speaking.

Suddenly, a young, roaring voice boomed through the crowd: "Stop being so stubborn!!!"

The crowd immediately turned to look in that direction. Daigo Madoka rushed to the very front of the shore, pointing at the scarred figure in the sky, his voice almost drowning out the storm.

"Everyone! Look closely! That giant has been protecting us from the very beginning! He's willing to bear the infamy to hold off the monster. He just saved the helicopter, and now he's about to die! And look at that so-called 'angel,' he's enjoying the slaughter!"

Daigo's voice carried a chilling power: "Open your eyes and see clearly! Who is the real demon?!"

The crowd fell into complete silence, as if a crack had been punched into a hard shell at that moment.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Hayato Hayama and Yumiko Miura were sweating profusely as they dragged a middle-aged man whose legs were bleeding.

"Uncle, hang in there! We'll take you to a safe place!" Ye Shan said, panting heavily.

The injured middle-aged man looked at the sky, tears mingling with dust streaming into his mouth. He trembled as he grabbed Ye Shan's sleeve, his voice hoarse: "Student... tell me, was I wrong...? Did we mistake the true guardian for a demon...?"

Yumiko Miura bit her lip and said in a low voice, "Uncle, you have pushed a hero who was protecting us to his death."

……

In the sky.

At this point, Duan Zilian had reached her true limit.
