Ultraman: Invincible since saving Tiga

Chapter 356 Wormhole Technology

Chapter 356 Wormhole Technology

Lin Yu fell silent.

His fingertips tightened unconsciously.

Are we really going to that world?

Must we return once again to that world utterly shrouded in darkness and despair?

He can't forget it.

Every minute, every second, thousands of lives perish in that universe, and once beautiful planets are transformed into dens of alien beasts.

He cannot save everyone by himself, nor can he illuminate the darkness of the entire universe. He cannot save everything by himself alone.

A solitary star is hard to shine.

The stars shine eternally.

These were the words the humans on Earth taught him, but the humans in that universe were almost all eaten up, so where would the light come from? Only monsters.

He was not a god; he could only fight clumsily, and fight again, until he realized that even if he fought until the end of time, he could not wipe out the alien beasts from an entire universe.

But now, for the sake of his own spiritual practice, he is going to return to that hell to "take" away the despair of the deceased and use their suffering to train himself.

Lin Yu's heart trembled slightly.

Isn't that just too beastly?

"Ding-dong—"

The train's arrival announcement interrupted Lin Yu's internal struggle.

The view outside the window, which had been a bizarre and chaotic flow of time and space, returned to the familiar night sky.

They are back.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, temporarily suppressing his inner struggle, and put on a relaxed and casual expression again.

He stepped out of the driver's seat and said to Gento and Emi, who were still discussing their options, "Alright, we've arrived. I've rescued them. What you do next is up to you."

He waved his hand dismissively: "It's your world, you're in charge."

Gento: "..."

He pointed to his nose, his face full of helplessness, but finally nodded: "Okay."

He glanced at the time on his watch and realized that less than ten minutes had passed in the real world since they left.

"There's still enough time."

After a moment's thought, Xianren made a decision: "Don't go back to the base yet. It'll be difficult to explain if there are too many people around."

He took out his communicator and dialed his teammate's number.

"Tae-shin? It's me."

"Captain? Where did you go?" Kishimoto Teruaki's anxious voice came from the other end of the communicator.

"Don't ask, just listen to me."

He lowered his voice, "Bring out the SKaRD mobile outpost, yes, that white van. Wait for me at the C-7 rendezvous point. I have... two important people here who need secret protection, and it's inconvenient to bring them directly back to base."

"learn!"

After hanging up the call, Xianren breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his ability to handle such trivial matters was improving rapidly.

A dozen minutes later, inside the white mobile outpost vehicle of SKaRD.

Cangbian Shu and his assistant slowly awoke amidst a jolt.

"Ugh... my head hurts so much..."

The assistant opened his eyes first. He looked blankly at the unfamiliar surroundings in the car and the people in strange uniforms in front of him. "Where... am I? I remember... the lab exploded..."

"Hye-mi?"

Cangbian Shu also woke up. The first thing he saw was his daughter, but his focus was a little different. "Why... do you look a few years older?"

"Father."

Huimei looked at him, her feelings complicated, and for a moment she didn't know where to begin.

It was Xianren who stepped forward. He handed over two glasses of water and, in the calmest tone, dropped a bombshell.

"Dr. Aoibe, the explosion you felt occurred three years ago."

"What?" The assistant spat out a mouthful of water.

To be precise,

Huimei added, looking at her father's face filled with astonishment and disbelief, "For you, it may only be a moment. But for us, it has been three whole years."

Inside the carriage, a deathly silence fell.

Then, she pulled up all the evidence, data, documents, and most importantly, a lot of surveillance footage that she had prepared in advance, and presented them to the two of them, forcing them to accept reality.

The worldview of Aobe Itsuki and his assistant is being ruthlessly crushed.

No matter how much they disbelieved it, with so much information presented before them, they had no choice but to accept the reality that their accounts had actually been closed.

Simply put, they no longer have household registration and have become unregistered residents. Unless they reveal their identities, they can only live in this state indefinitely.

Thirty minutes passed before everyone calmed down.

Just then, the car door was opened, and Lin Yu lazily leaned half his body inside.

"Oh, you're all awake? Perfect, let's talk about my rescue fee."

All eyes were on him.

"I saved you, so I should get some compensation, right? After all, sending people there and rescuing people are two different things, so I should be paid."

Lin Yu continued, "I don't want money, I don't want anything else, I only have one request."

He looked at Cangbian Tree with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

This old man, although he doesn't understand anything about human relationships and even his own daughter is so stubborn that he turns family relationships into an accident scene, oh, and he himself becomes an accident, no matter what, his talent is just like Dr. Yamata in the Ultraman Tiga world who developed Max's power system, he has reached the extreme in scientific research.

Even he wouldn't deny that.

This is a real big shot.

"I want all the research data on wormholes, as well as your subsequent research results."

Cangbianshu was stunned.

"Your experiment did not fail, Doctor."

Lin Yu's tone became serious, "You succeeded. You really opened a door to the depths of the universe. It was only because the energy wasn't effectively contained that it caused the explosion."

He patiently guided him, saying, "You're a genius. I believe that with enough support, you'll be able to create a stable and controllable wormhole next time."

"This...this is impossible..."

Cangbian Shu muttered to himself, but in his eyes, the flame of "research" had been rekindled.

"Nothing is impossible."

"Think about it, Doctor. Wormhole technology is an excellent way to travel across space; its value is immeasurable. This is a giant leap forward for human civilization."

He spoke eloquently: "Why were the territories that ancient empires could control always limited? It's because there are limits to the distance that communication and transportation can cover! When it takes more than three months for information to travel from the farthest frontier to the center of the empire, that land becomes almost impossible to control effectively."

"Wormhole technology, however, is completely different."

Lin Yu's words were like a key, unlocking the mental shackles of everyone present.

Aobe Itsuki, Emi, Gento, and even the assistant who was still in shock, all had a light shining in their eyes at the same time.

They spoke in unison, their voices trembling with excitement, and they delivered that conclusion.

"This means..."

"...The true arrival of the interstellar age!"

The entire civilization of Earth will no longer be confined to this corner of the solar system.

Humanity's footprints will be able to traverse the stars and the sea!

Cang Bianshu trembled with excitement. He looked at Lin Yu, his eyes filled with gratitude and fervor: "Sir, thank you, thank you for enlightening me. I understand, I understand!"

Seeing their excited expressions, Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction.

But he was thinking about something else entirely.

If wormhole technology is truly completed, then a stable passage could be opened between the stargate and Earth.

This means...

I can now call for players without any pressure!

Blazer, whom they recruited, can be called over whenever they want for "team building."

This investment was a sure-fire success.
