“Vice Captain Leo, this is SKIP. We have completed the evacuation of nearby residents, but the students from the cram school have given us a clue that they saw Mr. Mimori Tsukikami sneaking into the forest with tools.”
"With a shovel?" Leo raised an eyebrow. "Understood. I'll start the search immediately. You guys move out quickly."
As he spoke, Leo couldn't help but glance at the mature-looking Ida Masashi, or rather, the childlike Ida Iryu. Oh well, if things really come to a critical moment, he can just have Zetton send the person away first.
"It seems that Mr. Mimori does indeed have a problem."
"I only see that he has a deep darkness in his heart, and he is not a good person."
This matter has become somewhat troublesome again, but Leo couldn't just take him into custody at the time, since he really had no evidence that the guy was colluding with aliens. However, he was also very curious about what that guy was doing in the forest.
"Let's hurry up. Let's put that person's matter aside for now and focus on the monster."
Leo doesn't protect just anyone; he's already given Mimori Tsukihime a chance.
"Okay." After saying that, the two rushed into the depths of the forest at an astonishing speed.
Deep in the forest, Mimori Tsukishiro arrived at the foot of a thick tree. He looked around, estimating the evacuation time and the speed of Leo and the others, and figured they wouldn't arrive too quickly.
"Monster, oh monster, how could I not have thought of a monster... Alas, what a blunder."
As he spoke, Mimori Tsukishiro picked up a shovel and began to dig. He remembered that he had buried his wife here, and this morning he was still racking his brains about how to escape punishment. It was only after Leo reminded him that he remembered the existence of monsters.
If a monster really does appear here, then the wife's death would make much more sense, and no one would investigate it. As for the cause of the wife Kiyoko Mimori's death? There's nothing to say; it was just the accumulation of contradictions.
Before marriage, the two were very sweet and loving as boyfriend and girlfriend. However, after marriage, the excessive proximity of their living spaces caused conflicts between them. Mimori himself was a son-in-law who married into his wife's family, so he had a very low status and no say. Over the years, he was often criticized and insulted by his wife.
Last night, because he bought a pack of slightly more expensive cigarettes, Mimori Tsukigami was verbally abused by his wife, who called him a loser for having the nerve to smoke such expensive cigarettes and said he should just die. Then... he snapped.
Mimori regretted it deeply, but regret couldn't change anything. The fundamental reason he disagreed with suspending classes and evacuating was that he didn't want anyone to discover his wife's body there.
But the monster's idea is great, it's totally possible... With a clang, Mimori Tsukishiro's hoe seemed to hit some hard rock. He was a little puzzled, because he hadn't buried himself very deep due to the time rush, but after digging for a while, he found a rock instead.
Mimori lowered his head and suddenly realized that it wasn't a stone, but an eye, a huge, blood-red eye staring intently at him.
Before he could even speak, he was engulfed by the sudden darkness around him and sucked into the eye. After obtaining the heart, which was filled with many negative emotions, Enmago, the Yama monster that had been sealed under the tree, finally gathered the last piece of resurrection.
When Leo and Iida Ryu arrived, they saw Mimori Tsukigami being sucked into the eye. Suddenly, the ground began to tremble violently, and a plume of black smoke shot into the sky, killing the trees in its path. Without thinking, Leo used his telekinesis to trap the black smoke.
This is not ultimate darkness, but the power of Enmago. As the black mist dissipates under Leo's control, the Yama King monster Enmago is resurrected!
Then, before Enmago, who had just been resurrected, could unleash his power, someone shouted.
"Go, EX Pedanium Zetton, evolved Lagras, Sphia Dinolim, teach it a lesson!"
"Huh? What the heck?" Enmago was completely bewildered, and then he was surrounded by three monsters.
Chapter 210 Maga Serpent breaks the seal
Enmago really couldn't understand why things had developed to this point. This was completely different from what he had imagined—breaking the seal and wreaking havoc everywhere!
As a monster under Juda's command, Enmago is extremely powerful. Its shield in its left hand can block the Strium Ray, and its long sword in its right hand can easily cleave mountains. It can put Taro in a tough battle and even almost kill him.
If it weren't for Jizo's help in restoring Taro's head to its original position and the powerful Ultra Heart that restored him, Taro would have been defeated by Enmago's blade.
Enmago had already died once at Taro's hands. It was Juda who took away his vengeful spirit, resurrected him, and sent him to find the whereabouts of the so-called Ultimate Darkness. He also arrived here in a daze, and was beaten up and sealed away by Ida Iryu as soon as he landed.
It's worth mentioning that because the flow of time was different before the battle between Juda and Empera, Enmago arrived in this world 500 years ago, but in Empera's universe, it has only been a few decades since Enmago last died.
Therefore, in terms of strength, Enmago is definitely a general under Juda, and his ability to defeat Taro is beyond doubt. But why? Why did it turn out like this?
Enmago was in a daze. He had just come out when he was slapped by EX Pedanim Jeton and then whipped all over the ground by Sphiadinorim's wire.
After seeing his shield being lifted off his hand by two super-temperature beams from Evolved Lagras, Enmago knew that this was a serious problem.
Juda, Juda boss, where are you? You're not even on Earth! I sensed your presence last month! Where are you? Why don't you summon your Grand King to help us out?
Enmago had barely gotten up when he was kicked away by EX Pedanium Zetton, followed by a barrage of whipping from Specium, while evolved Lagras began charging up its Super Temperature Beam, preparing to finish Enmago off.
"..." Looking at the sword in his hand and then at the Ultimate Fighting Device in Leo's hand, Ida Ryu suddenly felt that Hiruzen wasn't so appealing after all.
If I had this thing, I could have easily defeated Ida Iryu and the demon Onijuro back then. Times have really changed.
Meanwhile, the ESCG teams operating in other parts of the forest were also astonished by what they saw. These days, monsters are more enthusiastic and efficient at fighting monsters than they are, Ultramen.
“Enmago’s strength is not bad either.” Leo couldn’t help but stroke his chin. “That shield can even block two shots of the Super Temperature Difference Ray.”
(This guy is probably quite powerful in the Gua Legion under Juda.)
Empera nodded. Enmago's strength wasn't weak, just not quite at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings, but he posed a great threat to any single Ultraman. However... Leo never fought one-on-one.
Reonics has no reason to fight one-on-one. He needs to acquire top-tier combat power and build a monster army. That's what Reonics has always done. Unfortunately, Softia and Pomona have learned their lesson and haven't sent him any new monsters.
"These are your fighting partners, sir. They are truly remarkable."
"Mr. Jinglong is truly remarkable. Hmm, Evolve Ragras, don't kill it."
Upon hearing Leo's order, Evolved Lagras had no choice but to stop charging up the Super Temperature Difference Ray and then unleashed a Freezing Beam that froze Enmago.
Enmago's strength is, well, a bit stronger than Super Goblin. He's good enough to be used as cannon fodder material. Now, Leo only needs to let go, and the Ultimate Fighting Device will automatically collect monsters. Leo doesn't need to worry about it at all.
Thus, Enmago, who was under Juda's command, also became Leo's subordinate. Emperor Empera laughed loudly, completely unaware that Mephisto was currently picking someone up at the edge of the solar system.
Moreover, the people in front of Mephisto were mostly well-known figures in the Dark Universe. Of course, given the reputation of the first Mephisto aliens, it was impossible for only a few people to be willing to serve him; it was just that Mephisto had high standards.
Moreover, there are bound to be some guys from the Dark Universe that Leo might not like, so Mephisto was very selective when choosing his people.
“Hellodia, the genius of Salome Alien, Shaula, the warrior of Hipporito Alien, Barbosa, the Barbar Alien, the Guts Alien… I shouldn’t have called you here.”
Looking at the girl in front of her, whose silver hair gradually turned blue at the ends, with an innocent face but playful eyes, Mephiss couldn't help but frown, wondering why this girl was here too.
"What does it matter? We're old friends, Mephisto. You wouldn't be unwelcoming and thinking of kicking me out, would you?"
"Since you know that, why are you still talking nonsense? Hurry up and go back." Mephisto clicked his tongue. "Mioko, don't think I don't know what you're up to. The person I'm loyal to now isn't someone you can easily fool."
"Oh, I just heard that you, my old hag, have finally found someone. So, the person you're loyal to is your husband?"
Mioko, the Guts alien, is, in a sense, Mephis's nemesis. This involves some unsavory past events, but Mephis doesn't like her.
The Gatsi aliens are cunning and treacherous, with Mio being one of the best among them. She also has a particular fondness for stirring up trouble. Once, after being charged a toll, she directly provoked two civilizations under the jurisdiction of the Dark Universe to the point of almost going to war, which even alarmed His Majesty the Emperor.
"Tch, why didn't you get killed by Seven back then along with your kin?"
"Oh dear, it's not like you're any better off than someone who was almost killed by Alien Empera. Your injuries haven't healed yet."
Mioko waved her hand casually, looking like she was stubbornly refusing to leave. However, Mephisto couldn't do anything about her. After all, her rival wasn't a mortal enemy. Moreover, if it weren't for Mioko's help back then, she might not have been able to escape from the emperor's clutches.
However, it's easy to guess that Mioko was just looking for fun. Mephisto was ripped off by her, losing many of her treasured possessions.
"I don't need to tell you whether I'm better or not, hmph." Mephisto rolled her eyes, then looked at the others, "On behalf of my husband, I welcome you all."
In reality, there are at least several hundred or a thousand aliens willing to serve Mephisto, but for Mephisto, most of them are probably less useful than having Golza. So she had her Steel Demon Four Heavenly Kings under her command arrange those guys.
However, these three are different. The Salome alien genius Helotia participated in the mass production improvement of Impreza, the Hipporito alien warrior Shaura has mastered and uses all the technologies and abilities of her race, and the Babar alien Barbossa can transform and imitate all the abilities of his target, making him an extremely powerful warrior.
These people all worked under Ampera. Their decision to serve Mephisto wasn't just based on past friendships, but more so because the Dark Emperor's actions made them feel uncomfortable and threatened. So they wanted to find another place to work. If Mephisto hadn't sent the message in time, they would have all gone back to their hometowns.
"Mefilas... uh, Lord Mefilas, did you summon us here to invade Earth?"
Xia Wula glanced curiously at the time in the direction of Earth. She hadn't expected that Mephisto had arrived here so early. She had only heard about Earth from others before, but now it really looked like a very beautiful planet.
"That's not true. Invading this Earth is no different from courting death. Rather, I would say that I am protecting this Earth right now."
The four people, including Mioko from the Guts alien, fell silent, probably not immediately understanding what Mephisto meant. Protect Earth? Mephisto alien?
"Don't look at me like that. This Earth belongs to my partner. It's just a little chaotic, and a lot of people are eyeing it."
"So you called us here so that we could protect Earth with you?" Mioko was genuinely surprised. Although they themselves hadn't participated in invading Earth, their kin had indeed done such a thing, and now they were actually protecting Earth instead.
"Protect the Earth?" Mephis looked at the four people in front of him with a strange expression. "Forget it, your level is not good enough. I'm afraid you won't live to see the next day's sun."
Those who were initially surprised immediately frowned, and Mioko clicked her tongue in annoyance, "You look down on us, don't you?"
"I'm just telling the truth. If you don't believe me, come and see for yourselves."
Mephis's original intention was to find some useful talent for Leo's side and also dismantle the Dark Universe's core group. However, she found that it seemed that no matter who she found, they were not very useful, because Leo had Galatron under his command, and Galatron basically handled all matters, big and small, with only Aya occasionally helping out.
As for Mioko and the others, Mephisto plans to use his entire team to assist Leo in his work. After all, Leo needs a few aliens under his command. As for whether these guys will go out of control? Heh, we'll talk to the Ultimate Fighting Device about that when they're still alive.
On the other side of Earth, in the White Fox Forest, Leo and Jinglong continued their journey deeper into the forest. Even after Enmago's defeat, the White Fox Forest remained oppressive. Captain Xianren and his team understood that things wouldn't be so easy to resolve, so they continued their investigation.
"The magnetic field around here is very strange." Imu looked at the instrument in her hand, then at Fujimiya beside her. "Fujimiya, don't you feel something's off?"
“We’ve been going deeper, but it seems like we’re moving very slowly, and we’ve lost contact with the others,” Fujimiya replied, unconsciously touching his wrist. “And in this forest, our light is getting dimmer.”
“Besides Enmago, there might be other secrets in this forest.” Fujimiya looked around. The originally clear sky gradually darkened as they went deeper into the forest. Dark clouds appeared out of nowhere and blocked out the sunlight, giving the forest itself a somewhat eerie feel.
"Actually, what I care more about is whether you feel that Evolution Lagras and Zetton always arrive just in time, as if they can know in advance where the danger will be."
Putting everything else aside, just this time with Enmago, before Meng and the others even had a chance to transform, they were already ganged up on by three against one, their efficiency was incredibly high.
“It’s also possible that it’s the same situation as ours…” Fujimiya couldn’t help but ponder. He had actually had similar thoughts a long time ago. “The person who controls the monsters might be lurking inside TPC, or even right next to us.”
“Yu Lian mentioned before that there is darkness lurking inside TPC. The vice-captain has been digging for a long time but has not been able to find it. You can imagine how difficult it is.”
I scratched my head. He wasn't good at this kind of thing, but handing it over to the Special Investigation Division should bring a breakthrough. After all, Captain Goroki must have experience in this area.
"Do you think it's possible that it could be someone from our team?"
"It's hard to say. Captain Gento, Daigo, Gai, Komon, and Fujiwara haven't shown any strange behavior. The people controlling the monsters are on our side, so there's no need to rush this issue."
As for Leo, no one doubted him. Judging from his habit of wanting to live in the command center all day long, he didn't seem like the type to do so.
"Achoo." Leo's nose was a little itchy. He stopped and looked at Ida Mari beside him. "Mr. Ida Ryu, have you noticed anything wrong?"
“Hmm, this forest has a strange power; we always seem to be going in circles.” Jing Tianjinglong was quite knowledgeable. “This didn’t exist five hundred years ago.”
“Let me give it a try.” Leo raised his hand, and the fluctuation of dark sparks appeared in his palm, then dissipated to the surroundings. It sounded like something was being smashed and torn apart. A gust of wind blew by, and suddenly something appeared in front of Leo and Ida Iryu.
It was a very simple and old ancestral hall, occupying only about one square meter. It was more like a small temple. It was old but not dilapidated, and the style was very familiar. Leo and Jing Tianjinglong exchanged a glance and then walked forward.
Leo and Jing Tianjinglong froze as they carefully opened the small door of the ancestral hall. Jing Long was stunned because there was a hairpin on the altar in the ancestral hall, carved with a fox face, and it was still very new, as if it had just been placed there.
What surprised Leo was the statue enshrined in the shrine, which was the very statue of Renlong that he had been polishing for the past ten years. However, unlike the one in the shrine, the statue in front of him was covered and distorted by darkness, turning into an indescribable shape.
“Ren…” Leo subconsciously turned around and saw Ren Long standing behind him. One of his eyes had turned blood red, half of his face had a strange expression, and his hair was black and red. The other half of his face, which was still rational, looked very helpless.
“I didn’t really want you to see me like this.” Renlong sighed softly. “The Maga Serpent’s eggs are eroding the ley lines, which means they are eroding me as one of the sealers. Leo, I’m sorry, I can’t hold it off any longer.”
From a very early time, the so-called conditioning of the earth's veins was just an excuse. Renlong mostly came here to adjust his own condition and check the seal. Maga-Orochi's power was too strong, and Ultraman Orb had spent too much power sealing the other Demon King Beasts. Maga-Orochi's seal was arguably the most unstable.
Five hundred years ago, Sukuna Oni and the demon Oni Juro caused chaos. Enmago arrived, which shook the seal. Renlong had no choice but to use his light to suppress Maga Orochi, but he was also corrupted and assimilated by it.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Leo quickly sensed that Renlong was fine on his end, but she didn't seem to be fine at all.
“Because I was afraid you would have some concerns, and at the same time, this is also to weaken it.” Renlong walked up to Leo and looked at his idol. “Just like the Dark Emperor and Alien Empera, it and I are like each other’s shadows.”
The ground beneath everyone's feet began to tremble violently. This precarious seal was on the verge of collapse because of Enmago. After 30 million years, the Maga Serpent was finally about to break free.
“Don’t worry, Maga Orochi is different from all the opponents you’ve encountered before.” Renlong gently stroked Leo’s cheek, his golden eyes filled with determination. “My Dragon Jade is with you, I won’t die, and I’m waiting for you to come and save me.”
Leo stared into Renlong's eyes for a long time before nodding firmly.
"it is good!"
Chapter 211 The Power of Maga Orochi
The further Kai walked, the more familiar it felt, and the more uneasy he felt. Ever since all six Demon Beasts were defeated, this unease had been lingering in his heart, and it was only now that it was finally showing its true colors.
Just before Kai finally remembered where he was, the ground trembled violently, and a strong dark aura burst forth. The Orb Ring automatically popped out of his arms, and a circular arc of light appeared in front of him.
Captain Stringman was somewhat surprised by this change. He sensed a powerful force in the light, while Kai seemed to understand something.
“Yes… this is the mission I came here for.” Kai gripped the ring tightly again. “I came to this universe by chasing after Maga Orochi’s egg.”
Now, it's time to complete this mission. Gai looked at Captain Gento. Although he didn't know what Gai had remembered, he was also ready to transform and fight.
"We'll talk about everything later. Right now, we're in a lot of trouble."
The two looked towards the center of the forest simultaneously. With a violent tremor, a huge, dark pillar of light, accompanied by red lightning, shot up from the ground and into the sky. The sky darkened instantly, and a strong, powerful heartbeat reached everyone's ears, followed by an indescribable fear.
A cocoon, resembling a rock, emerged from the ground and hovered in mid-air. A heartbeat emanated from within, thump, thump, like muffled thunder, as crimson energy rippled outwards from the cocoon.
On the battlefield of Chiba Sea, Captain Hebikura was overjoyed to have obtained the card in his hand, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him Jugglus Juggler. Since regaining his memories and acquiring the Dark Ring, he had been traveling around searching for powers that he could use in battle.
At that moment, the sound of a heartbeat rang in his ears. Jugglus subconsciously turned his head, and waves of energy spread from the top of his head, gradually reaching the entire city, the entire country, and the entire world.
"Has Maga Orochi been revived?"
Jugglus was taken aback, then immediately took out Melba's card and put it into the Dark Ring, rushing towards the battlefield.
Meanwhile, at the TPC base, Kaito Toma, who was meeting and introducing himself to Mizoroki, and Mizoroki in front of him were suddenly stunned. What was this powerful and unreasonable dark aura?
A bad feeling arose in both of their hearts at the same time. Gou Lumu's expression was serious. "I need to go to the toilet. The mission isn't urgent. We'll talk about it later."
"Understood." Toma Kaito nodded quickly, thinking that he was just about to go, but if Mizoroki wasn't there, he would just find a place where no one was watching and there were no surveillance cameras to transform.
What kind of enemy is this time? I've only been here for three days. Kaito couldn't help but wonder, but he still took out his Max Spark.
