Chapter 690 Raymond: From my short life, I've learned that monsters have their limits...
When the red and silver giant finally broke free from the shackles of petrification and sealing, it stood tall once more in the valley.
The entire island of Winston seemed to come alive at that moment.
A warm and sacred energy of light, like the gentlest breeze in spring, spread from the center of the valley, softly caressing every corner of the island.
On the beach, the ZAPSPACY members felt a warm sensation wash over them, instantly dispelling their fatigue and tension of the past few days, and invigorating their spirits.
"This, this is—"
Captain Hyuga and his crew followed the source of that energy through the coconut grove. When they reached the edge of the valley and saw the colossal, towering giant, everyone was speechless with awe.
It was a magnificence and sacredness that cannot be described in words.
The simple silver and red patterns intertwine to outline a powerful and streamlined body, while the hemispherical timer on the chest emits a faint blue glow.
Just by standing there, it gives people an unparalleled sense of security.
"Ultraman Warriors————"
Dr. Oki's eyes gleamed with unprecedented fervor and excitement.
He muttered to himself, as if speaking to his companions, or perhaps telling himself that distant legend.
"According to some of our ancient records, Earth has faced several massive threats from space over tens of millions of years." [The setting is 10,000 years after the era of Mebius, which is part of the canonical timeline.]
"And each time, such great giants of light step forward, asking for nothing in return, asking no questions, simply protecting the weak lives on this planet."
"They are the earliest gods in human mythology and legends."
The crew listened with rapt attention, their eyes filled with reverence and longing for the giant.
On the other hand, Ray's reaction was more direct.
He stared blankly at the giant, and the incessant, ear-piercing call in his mind finally vanished at that moment.
Instead, there was an unprecedented sense of intimacy and security.
"Is it him—the one who's been calling me all along?" Ray murmured.
He couldn't understand why such a powerful giant of light would need to ask him, a weakling, for help.
A strange look flashed in Kate's eyes as well.
As she felt that pure and extreme energy of light, the Reonic Law in her heart, which was based on the principle of "might makes right and the law of the jungle," began to waver for the first time.
To protect the humans of this planet, they were sealed away by the power of the Reiblood aliens.
Are there really such "kind" aliens in this universe?
Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts, the magnificent giant rapidly shrank in a soft light, eventually transforming into a kind and gentle old man wearing a ZAPSPACY uniform and glasses.
It was Hayata Susumu, the human form of the original Ultraman.
"Hello everyone, I'm Susumu Hayata."
The old man greeted everyone with a smile, his voice gentle yet powerful, making everyone feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
Captain Hyuga and the others quickly saluted, their expressions filled with excitement, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
Hayata Susumu's gaze finally settled on Lin Yu.
"Thank you, Ultraman Tiga."
He solemnly said, "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the strength to continue protecting them. My life is like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment."
"It was just a small favor."
Lin Yu waved his hand dismissively, as if it were nothing to worry about.
He was more concerned about something else.
"So, why were you sealed here? I can sense that the power sealing you belongs to the Reiblood aliens."
Upon hearing this name, Hayata Susumu's expression turned serious.
"That's exactly what I came here to find."
He slowly recounted the whole story.
"The Reiblood alien, the former emperor of the universe, whose physical body was destroyed for unknown reasons, his spiritual body is immortal and continues to move in the universe."
"In order to select offspring capable of inheriting its power, it scattered its genetic material throughout the universe, creating countless monster messengers known as 'Reionics,' and forcing them to engage in brutal battles."
"And this planet Polis was transformed by the power of the four-dimensional monster Bruton into a chaotic place connecting countless dimensions, a natural arena."
"I fought it to save the Earthlings trapped here, but I was ultimately sealed away by it using Bruton's power."
Hayata's words caused everyone present to gasp in shock.
Turn a planet into an arena connecting countless times and spaces?
Ray and Kate exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
It turns out that these so-called "chosen ones," these so-called "Reonics," were nothing more than "poison" created by that cosmic emperor to select his successor.
"Heir?"
Kate suddenly sneered, looked directly at Hayata, and expressed her opinion without fear.
"Being the heir means inheriting everything from Reiblood! Including his supreme power to rule the entire universe!"
"Therefore, we need to keep fighting, keep getting stronger, eliminate all the weak, until only one strongest remains! What's wrong with that?"
"This is simply the law of the universe: natural selection, survival of the fittest!"
Hayata shook his head solemnly and warned, "Child, you have been blinded by power. The Reibloodians are evil and cunning; there must be a deeper conspiracy lurking behind them."
"Those who are obsessed with pure power and domination will ultimately be consumed by power."
"Hmph, how naive." Kate curled her lip in disdain. "Only the weak fear power."
Just as a debate about "power and domination" was about to begin, Lin Yu lazily yawned and interrupted them.
I said—
He looked at Kate with a strange expression, sensing that the woman was a little out of her mind.
"Reiblood isn't completely dead; it's just lost its body. How can you be so sure that defeating all the Reionics means inheriting its power? And not—"
Lin Yu paused, then revealed a mischievous smile.
"What if it becomes the next vessel it possesses?"
"What if he's doing just fine as the emperor of the universe and has no intention of retiring from this profession?"
One sentence plunged the scene into an instant silence.
Kate's expression froze completely.
yes----
Why didn't she consider this possibility?
If the ultimate victor is not the new emperor, but rather a "sacrifice" for the resurrection of the old emperor.
Then what about the bloody battles between these Reonics?
Choose the freshest, most delicious, and tender meat.
Just as Kate's worldview was crumbling, Ray suddenly spoke up.
His eyes were clearer and more determined than ever before.
"It is wrong to try to rule the universe by force."
He looked at his sister and said, word by word.
"Fighting monsters, defeating monsters and becoming stronger—for a time after I woke up, I also took it for granted that this was my destiny."
"but!"
Lei changed the subject, his gaze unconsciously drifting to Lin Yu beside him, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"After spending these past few days together (in jail), I've realized that simply controlling monsters doesn't equate to true power. Because—"
He took a deep breath and spoke loudly, as if shouting out his very soul.
"The power of monsters has its limits!"
"I learned one thing from this short Reonic life—"
