Am I the only one in this team who is not Ultraman?

"The thought processes of extraterrestrials are generally very novel. The more you forbid them from doing something, the more interested they become in that thing."

"Ten years ago, Earth was not a particularly advanced civilization in the universe, but now it can kick the Natanians like a football. The whole universe can't understand what kind of development speed this is."

To put it bluntly, even if it's a technological explosion, it shouldn't be like this. Other places might have explosions, but Earth's altitude is only equivalent to a hydrogen bomb. No, the yield isn't that low.

Seeing how powerful Earth has become, many extraterrestrials are envious and want to come to Earth to steal its technology, especially the Desfasa manufacturing technology that previously made a name for itself in the universe.

Because of this, these aliens are now coming much more frequently than before, practically wanting to get a green card and come every day.

So the Special Investigations Division has really been working hard lately. It's one thing that there are a lot of monsters on Earth, but now there are also a lot of aliens. Friendly ones like Lucia and Zara are ultimately a minority.

However, having gained a full understanding of Earth's strength, these aliens didn't cause any major trouble. After being discovered, they cooperated and were taken away. Regardless of their reasons, coming to Earth without authorization is illegal.

As for resisting... well, go ahead and talk to Mizoroki, who can have Ultraman powers even in his human form.

“But Leo, you’ve really had a tough time. Not only has it been such a long battle, but you also have so many things to deal with.” Empera leaned against Leo’s other side.

"So what is this written?" To be honest, Rukiel couldn't read either; she only knew the script of the Land of Light.

"The advertising department has prepared a draft of my remarks for tomorrow's press conference, and I'll add some things that I might need myself."

As he spoke, Leo had finished some final revisions. He put down his pen, stretched his neck, and Emperor Empera helped massage his shoulders. Luciel, however, didn't stand on ceremony and took a sip of Leo's coffee. "Hmm, bitter," she said, "I don't like it."

Not wanting to drink it, but also not wanting to spit it out, Luciel simply wrapped her arms around Leo's neck and kissed him. The bitter coffee had a hint of dark chocolate in it, but Leo had no choice but to drink it.

"This stuff doesn't taste good." Luciel's first words after letting go were complaints. "I prefer it sweeter."

“I don’t like it either.” Leo let Luciel sit on his lap and rest her head in Emperor’s arms. “But we have a lot to do tonight. Drinking this will help me stay alert.”

This is actually a kind of self-affirmation, retaining the habits of being human, affirming one's identity as a human being, and regardless of how others view him, Leo always considers himself a member of the human race.

"Aren't you going to spend the night with your silly bird?" Ampera couldn't help but laugh when she thought of Magabasa; she was the one who brought the most joy to everyone in the house.

"Yes, she asked me to go for a drive, probably to let me relax for a while, everyone has been quite tired lately."

Leo started counting on his fingers, "After the interview tomorrow morning, I'll go shopping with Ereshkigal, and then take Gatanothor and Seele to the amusement park."

Of course, compared to fighting, Leo would much rather spend time with his family; nothing makes him happier than that.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Lucille and Empera didn't say anything, but Leo's face quickly turned cold again. "But to be honest, I'd rather deal with those guys again the day after tomorrow."

According to Leo's prediction, for quite some time to come, neither Zaki, the Dark Shadow Mage, nor that guy who was suspected to be a split version of Delacion would appear to bother him. The reason was simple: Leo was a mountain that was truly difficult to cross.

Dealing with Daigo and his group was already troublesome enough, but now there's Leo too. How are we supposed to fight? What's the point of fighting? We might as well just find a place and die right there.

These guys are unlikely to show up until a way to deal with Leo is found, which is why Leo is confident that they won't appear for at least a week.

A week is a conservative estimate; a month is not impossible. But their appearance means that a way to deal with Leo has been found.

So Leo couldn't just sit and wait for the other side to come to him. He searched everywhere for the whereabouts of Zaki and the others. In any case, since he was currently stronger than the other, he couldn't let the other side grow stronger.

"Hmph, a bunch of insignificant fellows. I am not yet strong enough, but when I am, I will change things!" Luciel crossed her legs, which were encased in black stockings, and her face was filled with arrogance.

Luciel's confidence stems from her powerful strength as a Dark Spark. She hasn't grown up yet, and it's unknown how long it will take. If she grows to her full potential, there's really no need to worry about the Dark Shadow Mage.

Speaking of which, why does the atmosphere feel a bit off? Lucie doesn't seem to be getting away from Leo at all, and why is Empera wearing that black bodysuit again today? Leo doesn't even look at her very attractively; after all… he's a man, after all.

"You're too scared to watch now, aren't you?" Empera gently pressed Leo's head down. "You said you wanted to try this before."

"I never said that!"

"But your eyes are much more honest than your mouth."

Empera licked his lips, and Luciel turned to look at Leo, a hint of smugness on her face.

"Can't it be tomorrow?"

“It’s Ereshkigal tomorrow, so you’d better be prepared to stay up all night.” Empera patted Leo on the shoulder. “Besides, this is also a necessary means to verify certain guesses.”

"I have a feeling you two are trying to fool me... um!"

As Leo was pinned down, Magabasa clenched his fists in humiliation on the tree outside the window, saying, "I am not yet strong, but when I am strong, I will change!"

Chapter 355 Hikari: I've learned something new.

Hikari felt like he had been given a second chance at life. He had underestimated the difficulty of the situation. He thought that as an Ultraman, dealing with monsters would be no problem.

As it turned out, the Five Emperors, EX Pedanium Zetton, Chaos Ultraman, and a bunch of Chaos heads were just standing there. If Ako hadn't come to his rescue in time, he wouldn't have even had time to write his will.

"Sigh, as expected, I am just an ordinary scientist, and I am still far from being a person who is specifically responsible for combat."

Hikari sighed, but then shook his head repeatedly. No, no, how could he think like that? As an Ultraman, it's natural to protect the weak. It's true that his strength is insufficient, but he can train!

Okay, that's decided. I need to train myself more!

"Mr. Hikari, what's wrong?" Dango looked at Hikari curiously. He had been spacing out and muttering something to himself.

"Ah, I'm sorry for talking to myself. I'm just surprised that Dr. Tango has done this much research. It's truly astonishing."

"After all, when I worked with Mr. Masaki Keigo before, I obtained a lot of useful information, and Vice Captain Leo often gave me some data collected from the front lines."

Now that things have come to this, Nii-I-II, the one behind the scenes, makes no attempt to hide his past relationship with Masaki Keigo. So what if he has the means to turn people into Ultraman? Before giving him that power, who wouldn't consider the existence of Leo?

Forget about anything else, just talk to our great scientific confidant, the commander-in-chief of the global defense force, the arsenal's lucky charm, the vice-captain of the ESCG, and the executive vice-director of the TPC.

"However, can't we turn people directly into Ultraman right now?"

"That's natural. We don't have the plasma spark of the Land of Light. Humans only have the potential to become light, but Ultraman is the physical embodiment of light. There's a huge difference between the two."

Hikari was introduced by Leo and demonstrated his scientific abilities, so Tango trusted him greatly.

"According to my research, no matter which Ultraman it is, their beams and their own bodies emit a very peculiar particle."

"I also discovered this kind of particle when I was studying the stone statue of Ultraman. I call it the Defareta particle and believe that it is the fundamental reason why life evolved into Ultraman."

The Ultraman that appear on Earth do not come from one place. This was also confirmed by Tango based on the murals in the ruins. However, Ultraman from different universes all have the Defareta particle reaction, which makes him speculate.

"I think that besides being an energy source, the Plasma Spark Tower in the Land of Light is also a Defareta particle generator. The Defareta rays it emits are the fundamental reason why the humans in the Land of Light are transformed into Ultraman. What do you think?"

“I think you’re right.” Hikari nodded repeatedly. It wasn’t just right, it was absolutely right. He even suspected that Dango had looked through the history books of the Land of Light, something that many Ultramen didn’t know.

When the Plasma Spark Tower was first activated, a large number of Defareta particles transformed into rays that traveled throughout the entire planet, promoting the evolution of the entire Kingdom of Light. After that, the Defareta rays became much weaker.

"Our light conversion system can turn humans into light and merge with the Ultraman statue, giving it new power. But before, without the Defareta particles, it was impossible to directly transform into Ultraman."

“I see…” Hikari started to say, then suddenly realized something was wrong. “What do you mean, ‘never before’?”

Dango proudly pushed up his glasses, "Because now, I have found a substitute that is 98% similar to the Defareta particle and is theoretically completely feasible."

"The Max Dynamics system is truly astonishing. Some of the light particles produced by the Max Dynamics system are almost identical to the Defareta particles."

Hikari was a bit confused. It was one thing to feel that his fighting power as an Ultraman was insufficient, but did he also have to suffer a blow to his self-esteem as a scientist?

"Honestly, I was truly impressed when I discovered this. I was completely defeated by Dr. Yamata. His invention is simply amazing. He combined Goblin and Sphia and even improved upon them."

"There aren't many people in this world that I admire. Vice Captain Leo, Director Sawai, Chief Yoshioka, Mr. Masaki, and then Dr. Yao."

If we were to choose the greatest scientist of this century, Tango would be the first to vote for Dr. Yamata no Hachiman, and no one but Leo could object.

"So...we've obtained the Defareta particle?" Hikari's head was spinning; he wondered if he was dreaming.

But you really can't blame Hikari for this. He figured even the Father of Ultra himself would have the same reaction if he were here.

There are so many civilizations in the universe, and countless forces have tried to research and obtain Ultraman's power but failed. As a result, Earth has already gotten close to it. Surely I'm not really going to help them create a plasma spark tower?

Even Hikari, who came from the Space Science and Technology Bureau, wouldn't dare to dream of such a thing.

"That's right, but unfortunately only a very small fraction of the particles produced by the Max drive system meet the requirements."

At this point, Dr. Dango sighed with particular helplessness, "Our equipment is limited, and human science and technology are still too backward."

No, where are you lagging behind?

Hikari thought that this technology was far superior to that of the Pedan aliens, and even in terms of weaponry, it was more diverse than that of the Land of Light.

But it's not hard for Hikari to guess that the materials used to manufacture Max propulsion systems, and even the technology itself, have not yet reached their peak.

If the Max power system is ever fully researched and successfully developed, it might become the next Plasma Spark Tower, and it wouldn't be impossible for humans to become Ultraman.

It's truly remarkable that humanity on this planet has managed to survive under such dangerous conditions and immense pressure.

"Hmph, let's see how that guy Otomo beats me now." Dr. Dango stood smugly with his hands on his hips, while Hikari just smiled and thought to himself that this Earth was really too outrageous.

Meanwhile, on Monster Island, Musashi stared at the enormous monster, eighty meters tall, his lips twitching. "Dr. Otomo, didn't you just start planning to create monsters today?"

"The light particles generated by the Max Power System can accelerate the cultivation and fusion of monster cells. The plan is going much more smoothly than I expected."

Dr. Otomo looked smugly at the giant beast before him. This method was taught to him by Leo, but Dr. Otomo didn't care how Leo knew it; Vice-Captain Leo had many secrets.

Dr. Otomo had been preparing for this monster for far too long. He fused and cultured all the monster cell samples he had on hand as much as possible. Although it hadn't reached its most perfect state, it was still much more powerful than he had imagined.

In Dr. Otomo's original expectations, Neozas being over seventy meters tall would be a good start, being stronger than Silvergon would be a victory, and being able to severely injure Garula with a beam attack would also be a victory.

However, Leo gave Dr. Otomo confidence. He even handed him a bunch of monster cell samples while patting Dr. Otomo on the shoulder and saying, "I believe you can do it."

"The super-powerful monster Neozars stands 83 meters tall and possesses strength comparable to King Silvergon, far exceeding the surface defense of Garula and Mos'a. Its spikes make it impossible for enemies to attack, and its entire body is enveloped in the shield of Sphia."

"It can fire a barrage of light like Lugoset's apocalyptic rain from its tail, and it can also be used as a weapon. It can absorb all light energy and convert it into its own power, as well as evolve into a super-temperature-difference ray-tracing version of Lagras. It can fire in rapid succession, but unfortunately there are still many abilities that have not been shown."

It's incredibly powerful. Just hearing Dr. Otomo say that, Musashi figured that even if he were to open the Cosmic Corona or even use Future Mode, he would be terrified to face this thing.

No, what do you mean this thing still has many abilities that haven't been shown yet?

While Musashi was stunned and Otomo was smug, in a corner unseen by anyone, the invisible Eleking gently slapped the Ultimate Fighting Device onto Neozars.

Since it was Leo who gave the advice and even provided the cells, we must eliminate all possible hidden dangers from the root.

Chapter 356 Magabasa's Malicious Intentions

Magabasa was clearly upset and unhappy, and Leo looked away, feeling a little embarrassed. He felt really bad for this silly bird.

While Empera and Luciel claimed they were doing some verification, they actually kept Leo occupied for over an hour before finally stopping. Luciel even muttered that she wished she could lock Leo up alone and keep him by her side forever.

The girls in the family always have these chilling thoughts, and Leo can't do anything about it, but luckily Luciel is just saying it for the sake of saying it.

It's true that Luciel wants to possess Leo, but she has plenty of time, more time than anyone else. The Dark Spark is a legendary item, and Luciel, as someone born from it, can survive even if the Dark Spark destroys her.

Time has lost its meaning for Lucy. She can wait, no matter how many thousands or tens of thousands of years. In the end, Leo will still be hers. Well, she just has to be careful that Galaxy doesn't steal her away.

Seeing that Leo had actually looked away, Magabasa pouted and tugged at his clothes, "I'm not happy."

"I can see it, why is it written on her face?" Leo looked at the writing on Magabasa's face, it didn't seem like her handwriting.

Despite her sharp tongue and silly antics, Magabassa has beautiful handwriting. It's said she was forced to learn it by Rainbow Kaga, though Leo isn't entirely sure why.

"Gatanjah and Seele did it... No, Boss Leo, you're trying to change the subject again,"

"I really didn't do that," Leo quickly raised his hand to show his innocence, then reached out to wipe the ink off Magabasa's face. He noticed that the ink was a bit strange and subconsciously put it in his mouth to taste it.

"Why is this ink still sweet?"

"That was Gatanjeer's saliva; she had been stealing candy again."

Leo almost coughed up the cough, but forced himself to hold it in. He knew in his heart that Magabasa must have done it on purpose; that silly bird could be quite cunning at times.

"Hehe, you made me unhappy, now you know you were wrong!" Magabasa leaned against Leo triumphantly, poking his waist repeatedly. So what if she did it on purpose? Anyway, Leo couldn't bear to hit her.

"Then go out for a walk by yourself tonight."

"Ah, how can you say that!" Magabasa grabbed Leo's hand and stood up. "Leo, you promised me, you can't go back on your word! Come on, let's go have some fun!"

Watching Magabasa drag Leo out the door, Renlong took a sip of tea. With this kind of personality, he still wants to fight with Leo? If Leo doesn't say anything within ten seconds, Magabasa will be unable to hold back.

However, this is indeed a rare period of peace. Renlong himself finally has time to take care of the earth's veins. The successive battles during this period have caused considerable damage to the earth.

Moreover, one by one the great seals were removed, and the ultimate darkness had fully awakened. However, apart from the one on Gatanothor's side, which was truly baffling, the remaining seals were all exceptionally stable.

Otherwise, the active ultimate darkness would leave the land desolate, glaciers melting, tsunamis raging, and the entire world shrouded in apocalyptic weather, drastically weakening the environment in which humanity can survive.

Therefore, it is necessary to stabilize the earth's veins to ensure the flow of life on the planet, and to have Rainbow Kagachi ensure the stability of the climate. Now that Hillary and Kodara have returned, the sea and sky have finally settled down.

Magabasa loved this sky the most, soaring freely through it, flying through the clouds towards the stars, or diving into the sea; she never tired of it.

Just like now, simply being with Leo made her very happy. She chirped as she flew across the sky above the city, attracting the attention of a large number of people.

Everyone could see that Magabasa was in a great mood today; some even had better eyesight and could see Leo sitting on her paws, but because of the extreme darkness surrounding her, no one could see clearly.

Speaking of which, the monster research experts gathered on Monster Island recently made the study of Magabasa a key topic, believing that understanding Magabasa's behavioral logic would help clarify many things.

Her usual behavior is really puzzling. The only thing that is certain is that she and Melba are probably natural enemies. Otherwise, who would chase after Melba all day long for no reason?

"You're really malicious," Leo said, looking at Magabasa. "Do you really enjoy teasing those scholars?"

"Yeah, because it's really interesting. Just thinking about how a bunch of people would spend ages figuring out how I could bully an ostrich is hilarious."

Magabasa was also malicious in this regard, but Leo didn't bother to say anything to her. He simply reached out and caught the Ultimate Fighting Device that flew back, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

The Ultimate Fighting Device trembled slightly. To her, these things were trivial matters. However, there were some things that needed to be discussed and decided with Leo, namely those Great Sealed Monsters.
