A young communications soldier muttered to himself, his eyes vacant as he stared at the flashing data, his pen falling limply to the floor.
"What...what else can we do?"
Another staff officer took off his glasses, rubbed his temples wearily, and spoke with a sense of helplessness, as if all his strength had been drained away.
Despair spread like a plague through the command center.
Just then, a silver-white beam of light shot into the sky without warning from one corner of the main screen.
The beam of light was so thick and so dazzling, it seemed to tear the entire sky apart.
"What is that?!"
The commander suddenly stood up, staring intently at the jarring light source on the screen.
"A new...new monster? No...it doesn't seem like it! Could it be—"
An observer stared intently at the magnified image, seemingly noticing some detail, his voice even trembling.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the beam of light.
Within the light, a colossal figure slowly solidified.
His body was a striking combination of silver and red, with powerful muscle lines and bright, star-like milky-white eyes.
"Hea!!!"
A battle roar that pierced the clouds seemed to resonate directly in the depths of everyone's soul.
"A giant...it's the giant of light! It's Ultraman! Ultraman has finally appeared to save us!"
Someone gasped in disbelief and ecstasy, as if a drowning person had grasped at a straw.
"Ultraman...could it really be Ultraman?!"
The commander lunged at the screen, staring intently at the live feed, his lips trembling, his eyes blazing with an intense light of hope that almost burned those around him.
He wasn't questioning, but confirming a miracle buried deep in his imagination. Reason told him he shouldn't believe it, but his emotions were yearning for the light, because Japan's military strength had been depleted to a desperate degree. If nothing changed, a vast and terrifying area would be erased from Japan's map today.
The suffocating atmosphere of despair that had been permeating the entire command center was completely swept away.
Instead, there was an almost manic excitement and anticipation!
They saw hope; in the darkest hour, a light illuminated the abyss that was about to devour everything!
The towering silver-white beam of light slowly dissipated.
Amidst the dazzling light, a majestic silver-red figure gradually appeared, hovering in mid-air.
On his silver skin, bright red lines, like burning crimson flames, outlined powerful muscle contours.
On his chest, six pairs of star medals, arranged like stars, shone with a cold gleam.
On the arm, three pairs of symmetrically distributed Ultra badges also emitted a dazzling light.
"Is this what it feels like to transform into Ultraman...?"
An unprecedented perspective unfolded before Li Qingyang's eyes, and a large amount of first-person combat memories flooded into his mind, including a large amount of monster encyclopedia information, which allowed him to master the methods of combat almost instantly.
He lowered his head slightly, and a huge silver palm opened in front of him, then slowly clenched.
The bending and straightening of each finger generates unimaginable force, as if it could easily crush mountains and rivers.
The air was compressed between his fingers, producing a faint popping sound.
Incredibly powerful.
But this feeling...
He tried to mobilize the energy within his body, and light gathered in his palm, condensing without being released, carrying a scorching temperature.
This power was indeed many times stronger than when he was human and used light to enhance his physical abilities.
But compared to the vast, seemingly inexhaustible power he experienced when his consciousness first entered Zoffy's body and became the source of energy, it seemed somewhat... restrained.
He remembers that feeling of every cell in his body cheering, of power bursting forth from the depths of his soul—an ultimate sense of exhilaration.
It seems that the force of a punch or kick can unleash earth-shattering power.
The sheer force of his grip alone was enough to break the bones and tendons of Barton, whom Zoffy had been fighting so hard before. The meteor throw landed with a single blow, instantly turning Barton into a mangled mess.
Zoffy at that time felt almost as powerful and formidable as Shining Tiga from the final Tiga arc.
But now, he could clearly feel that the power of this body was far less than he had experienced back then, and it was more like Zoffy's normal state when he wasn't providing power...
But that's enough.
Li Qingyang's gaze was firmly fixed on Melba, which was wreaking havoc in a deserted residential area more than ten kilometers away. His milky white eyes revealed a kind of Showa-era benevolent look.
The next instant, his massive body leaned forward slightly, "Boom—!"
It wasn't a verbal roar, but a deafening explosion caused by a purely physical phenomenon—the air was violently torn apart by the terrifying acceleration at the moment of his activation.
The sonic boom cloud exploded layer upon layer behind him, like a continuously blooming white wreath.
With its top speed of Mach 10 fully unleashed, the silver-white and crimson meteor, carrying an unparalleled momentum, hurtled straight toward the rampaging ancient dragon in the distance.
Below, the once towering building ruins seemed to shrink as he sped past, appearing as small as models on a sand table.
A silvery-white meteor streaked across the sky, covering a distance of more than ten kilometers in just a few breaths.
Melba, oblivious to all this, remained immersed in the pleasure of destruction, swooping down once more and turning everything below to dust.
Then, it suddenly rose high into the air, hovering there and looking down at the devastating scene it had created. Seemingly extremely satisfied, it raised its head and let out a sharp, mocking cry, preparing to adjust its posture to destroy its next target.
At that very moment, a tremendous commotion reached its ears. Before it could even wonder what was happening, a silvery-white light appeared suddenly on its side at a speed too fast for the naked eye to detect.
This extremely sudden and unexpected situation left Melba with no time to react.
The next instant, a giant foot gleaming with silver light, enveloped in visible, scorching energy, struck its side like a divine hammer of punishment descending from the sky.
"Bang—!!!"
An unimaginable roar exploded over the city ruins.
Chapter Fourteen: Transformation! Ultraman's Sneak Attack! First Battle a Victory, a Decisive Defeat! -- 3/4
An unimaginable roar exploded over the city ruins.
Melba let out an extremely shrill scream. His massive body twisted and deformed instantly under the blow, like a rag doll struck by a heavy hammer.
The smooth flight path came to an abrupt halt, and the ancient dragon's massive body tumbled uncontrollably in the air, like a stone that had been violently struck, crashing miserably towards the ravaged earth below.
"Thump—!!!"
The earth trembled violently.
A deafening roar, so deep it seemed like a meteorite crashing into the earth and shattering its crust.
Melbana's massive body slammed into the ruined buildings in a twisted manner.
The shockwave, carrying countless fragments of stone and steel bars, exploded in all directions.
A massive cloud of smoke rose into the sky, obscuring the bright midday sky.
The explosive kick, exceeding the speed of sound, unleashed its terrifying kinetic energy in a single moment.
In the area impacted by Melba, all remaining structures were instantly flattened.
The ancient dragon's body was embedded deep in the rubble and debris, trembling with difficulty.
The body, which was so tough that modern firepower could not break through it, now showed a large area of cracks and collapse at the side of the abdomen where it was kicked.
One of the fleshy wings drooped unnaturally at an odd angle, clearly broken off completely.
A mournful cry stuck deep in its throat, turning into intermittent, low wails.
Each breath carried a heavy, bloody stench, emanating from its slightly open beak, clearly indicating severe internal organ damage.
Just one strike.
The once invincible aerial overlord is now seriously injured.
High in the sky.
After completing a righteous Ultraman sneak attack, the silver-red giant paused slightly, stabilizing his posture as he was being pushed back by the reaction force.
Its milky-white eyes calmly gazed at the churning dust below.
Without the slightest hesitation.
The giant of light leaned forward slightly once more.
In the next instant, he transformed once again into a streak of silver-red light, tearing through the sky.
Sonic boom clouds exploded one after another behind him, forming concentric white rings that spread outwards.
With unstoppable momentum, it hurtled straight towards the cloud of dust kicked up by Melba's fall.
Their objective was clear, and their killing intent was palpable.
I, Li Qingyang, am going to beat you, Babar, to death with my fists and feet today!

…………
Inside the underground shelter, the air was so stuffy it was almost solid.
The concrete ceiling above her head trembled intermittently, like the footsteps of a distant behemoth, each time causing Kato Megumi's heart to tighten slightly.
She and her family huddled together in a corner of the corner shelter, waiting for the danger to pass.
The light from the phone screen was somewhat dazzling in the dim light, illuminating her slightly pale cheeks and her eyes, which were filled with a hint of worry.
The screen displayed a dialog box with Li Qingyang.
"I'm fine, I've found a safe place to take shelter. You all must also be careful, and absolutely do not come out until the official announcement confirms that it's safe."
This was a message from Li Qingyang not long ago, brief and powerful, which eased her anxiety a little.
But after that, she sent another text message, which disappeared without a trace, like a stone sinking into the sea...
The silence of the screen contrasted sharply with the roar of the outside world.
Time ticked by, and every tremor of the ground struck a nerve in everyone in the containment facility, a reminder that the great terror outside still lingered.
People around them either whispered or remained silent, their faces a mixture of fear and numbness, but nothing out of control occurred, because they had become accustomed to this kind of life of hiding in the shelter and waiting to get through the crisis.
Kato Megumi paid no attention to any of this. After waiting for a reply without success, she put down her phone, looked up at the extremely thick gray ceiling above her, and unconsciously ran her fingertips along the cold edge of the phone.
Is Li Jun really safe?
(?_?)……
…………
Tokyo, the underground operations command center of the Joint Staff Office of Japan.
The footage broadcast live by the drone made everyone hold their breath.
No one could see the giant's movements clearly; even the drone's high-speed camera module couldn't capture his afterimage clearly.
They only saw the silver-red meteor cross a vast distance in a few breaths and appear on Melba's flank.
Immediately afterwards, an extremely dazzling light exploded in Melba's abdomen.
"Bang—!!!"
The slightly delayed, muffled roar transmitted back by the drone was like Thor's hammer, slamming into everyone's eardrums.
The unidentified monster on the screen twisted and deformed in mid-air in an instant, like a broken sandbag being flung away by a huge force, tumbling uncontrollably and falling in a parabolic arc towards the ravaged earth below, crashing straight into the pile of ruined buildings.
Then came another series of earth-shaking explosions, and even through the screen and from a great distance, the floor of the command center seemed to tremble slightly.
Smoke and dust billowed into the sky.
The once invincible aerial overlord is now lying prostrate in the dust kicked up by its fall, its fate unknown.
The command center was deathly silent.
one second.
two seconds.
