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

Leo twirled his pen, suddenly realizing that if he ever really had a lot of free time, he probably wouldn't be able to adapt. To be honest, the fact that not many powerful monsters were appearing now was probably a good thing, and he didn't have any bad premonitions, but he was just... bored.

"So boring." Hong Kai slumped on the table and couldn't help but complain. He had a great day off the day before yesterday, but when he went on patrol yesterday, he found that there was no need to transform to deal with monsters anymore. "There haven't been any really strong monsters lately."

"What, do you want to take a few hits from Captain Hebikura's Snake Heart Sword?" Leo raised an eyebrow, and everyone awkwardly scratched their faces. That's true, there weren't any particularly powerful monsters, so there was no need for a plane crash, which was certainly a good thing.

At least there's no need to worry about the Serpent Heart Sword Flash or the Leaf Tiger Explosive Fist anymore. Hong Kai thought for a moment and figured that Jugglus Juggler had probably regained his memories and obtained the Dark Ring. The other Five Emperors that appeared earlier was most likely him.

Given Jugglus's personality, unless he asks him directly, he probably won't give any answer, since that's just his nature—a guy with a penchant for the wicked.

Today, Captain Stringman unusually drank milk tea instead of coffee, saying he wanted to learn more about his son's hobbies. After a moment's thought, he agreed.

"In fact, the weapons and equipment that humans have now are far superior to those of a month ago, but our opponents have not made any progress; they have only increased in number."

"Galulla has a weakness in his throat. Even if he didn't, the Max Cannon would be enough to break through his defenses. Zoga is just fast, but he can't outrun EXJ and Condor, let alone Desfaza and Asgaron."

That makes sense. For Earth today, the existing enemies are nothing. The only reason we couldn't upgrade our weapons and equipment in the past was due to many limitations.

Some people initially had objections to upgrading weapons and equipment, but after the four great sealed monsters appeared one after another, they felt that the weapons and equipment were simply not enough.

Garula is easy to deal with. If you seize the opportunity to aim at its throat or back of the neck, the Hyuga-2 can take it down. Zoga is not as fast as the Zilda missile, so it can basically be taken down with one shot each.

"But it's really worrying. Ten years ago, there was only one Golza, but there have been more and more of them since then. The same is true for Melba. Now, the number of Garula and Zoga has increased dramatically in just one month. Yesterday, we received more than fifty kills."

Hearing my dream's worries, Leo also understood the meaning behind them: "This means that the darkness sealed by the Ultra Warriors 30 million years ago can no longer be contained, and more and more monsters are being born from the darkness."

"Why haven't the Gadi increased in number?" Fujiwara Juri asked subconsciously. I was a little surprised. "Sigh, Fujiwara, don't you know? Gadi are actually space monsters."

"Huh?" Not only Fujiwara, but also Daigo and Komon showed surprised expressions. Leo helplessly rested his chin on his hand, "I can't blame you for this. After all, our job is to eliminate monsters. We usually don't know much about monsters."

"According to Xiao Gadi, these monsters usually find a volcano crater after they reach adulthood and lie there, waiting for a volcanic eruption to blow them away. So the living environment of Gadi is quite similar to that of Earth."

Renlong once told Leo that when the first Gadi flew to Earth, the Dark War had already ended, and even the Destruction Bringers had been beaten up and ran away. At that time, nobody cared about them, so the Gadi settled down on Earth.

"So there aren't many Gadi on Earth?" Now Mengdu looked over curiously. Everyone knows that Leo is very popular with the little Gadi, so he must know a lot.

“That’s not a small number,” Leo pondered for a moment. “Aside from those we destroyed earlier, there are now seventy-eight Gadi on Earth. Most of them are in a dormant state, so we don’t need to worry about them causing any trouble.”

Ever since Little Gadi was recruited by TPC and became the first monster with an official organization, she persuaded several Gadi who were about to awaken to stay, saying that following her sisters would guarantee them food. She successfully recruited a group of followers, or rather, younger sisters, since Gadi has no males.

The Gadi race is quite peculiar. Monsters determine their status by competing in strength. For example, the position of "Earth's Daughter" was won by Miss Renlong through her strength. According to Magabasa, many of them died tragically without even a complete corpse.

The factor that determines the status of the Gadi is the barrier. Whoever has the biggest and strongest barrier is the boss. Little Gadi said, "What else is there to say? We sisters are born to do this job, okay?"

As for those who disagree? No problem, go talk to the Desfasa floating above my head.

"By the way, who did everyone bring when you went out this afternoon?" Hong Kai suddenly changed the subject, leaving Leo completely bewildered. What did he mean by "who did you bring"? He had no idea that there was such a thing as team building this afternoon. Captain Stringman hadn't mentioned it.

"I'll bring Lina." Daigo was the first to raise his hand, and Yi Ni Lu Yi Chan Yi E IX Yi Yue/Yi Gu Men nodded in agreement, "Riko also wants to get to know everyone!"

"I'm definitely going to Dunzi here. She'll be here soon. As for Fujimiya, Miss Ryoko is on holiday today."

"As for me, my wife and children happen to be free, so it wouldn't be a bad thing to bring them along and let them get to know everyone."

Captain Gento was also prepared; his wife and children were on holiday today. Fujiwara Itsuki thought for a moment, “I’ll take my relative’s child. That child has always admired the defense force, so this is a good opportunity.”

Leo's heart skipped a beat. He had entrusted the team building activities for today to the other party because he didn't want the captain of the stringed team to be idle. He never expected this.

Under Leo's surprised gaze, Hong Kai coughed and then scratched his head, "I'm going with Jugglus."

Now everyone's gaze towards Hong Kai started to change. You little rascal, something's not right.

However, everyone then looked at Leo. Their eyes seemed to say nothing, yet they also seemed to say everything. They were just short of asking directly: "Vice Captain Leo, don't you want to be all alone later? Why don't you call your partner over?"

Leo clenched his fists in secret. "So, you're pulling this stunt on me? Looks like I didn't beat you enough back then. Just you wait, just you wait, you'll get what's coming to you sooner or later!"

Chapter 376 Another Unfortunate Child Arrives

There are always many taverns in the universe, but the largest one has always been the one on Standal, because it is the only place in the entire universe that serves drinks from Earth.

"Sigh, times have really changed." A Reicuran alien sat at the bar with a sigh, looking at his old friend, the Standelian. "I never thought you Standelians would be so farsighted, making contact with Earth so early."

The Standelian in charge of the tavern's operations was quite pleased with himself. "Isn't our planetary chairman impressive? He was the first to suggest establishing diplomatic relations with Earth. What would you like to drink?"

"A cup of probiotic drink, with ice, a plate of Lao Gan Ma noodles, and two bottles of Sprite and two bottles of iced tea to go." Hearing that the Reiculan alien had actually ordered this, many people in the tavern looked up. Wow, what a wealthy family! They can afford this.

Although there is trade between Standal and Earth, important resources are definitely prioritized for exchange, especially weapons and equipment. There are also drinks, but not everyone in the universe likes this flavor; lactic acid bacteria cola and similar products are more popular.

However, these things are very rare, so they are expensive, and it's quite a pain to eat them. Some aliens have even started to consider smuggling these things back to Earth.

As for why the universe doesn't have it? That's actually related to the Naga. With such a guy on your head who could come and rob you at any time, who wouldn't pile all their resources on technology and weaponry?

"My neighbor hoards grain, I hoard guns; my neighbor is my granary." This is all because of the Naga people. Reicouran is the best example. The environment was originally okay, but now their hometown can't even grow potatoes.

To be honest, the whole universe is like this now. There are planets with resources, but no one is willing to develop industries in this area first. You might not be able to find another planet like Earth that has everything in the entire universe.

"You're eating so well today, is something good happening?"

"The fleet on Reicuran was severely damaged, and the original planetary council was completely reorganized. I have been nominated as a councilor."

“This is definitely worth celebrating, so this is on me.” The Standelian handed over a bag of potato chips and started chatting with the Reicuranian.

Some time has passed since the Naga were destroyed, and there has been much turmoil and change in the universe. Things are very different now than before.

The Naga have offended many people in the universe over the years. The remaining members don't need Galatron to take action; naturally, some are willing to seek revenge. At the same time, some have realized that the destruction of the Muzhen people was also caused by that strange force, so everyone has become much more peaceful.

"It seems that a force that stands at the pinnacle of this universe is finally about to emerge."

"And they seem much better than the Naga. Although they're aiming to wipe out entire families, at least they don't cause trouble, so they don't have to be afraid of trouble."

Nix, the mastermind behind the control of a large number of Gloca bishops, is now widely recognized as the leader of the most powerful force in the entire universe. Some even speculate that Nix's own strength is unfathomable and he might be the most powerful fighter in the universe.

"So, the planet Adran also established diplomatic relations with Earth, and even received a lot of powerful equipment."

"Yes, although they are all old equipment discarded by Earth, they are sufficient for them. More importantly, the price is very low... This represents Earth's goodwill."

Envy, I really envy. Everyone now understands what level Earth's combat power is at, especially the Monera aliens. They used to boast that they created Earth's strongest Desfaza, but then someone showed them a scene of Asgaron taking on eighteen people at once, which silenced them.

Given Earth's current rate of development and strength, it will eventually become a power that is no less than, or even surpasses, the Naga. The sooner we make friends with them, the better. However, many of you here have offended them, which is quite awkward.

They frequented this tavern, partly to gather information about Earth, and partly to build rapport and see if past grievances could be resolved.

After all, Earthlings are incredibly powerful. By now, everyone knows that there is a massive force on Earth. When Dark Gordis broke free of his seal, there were aliens lurking on Earth, or at least they thought they were lurking, but in reality, the LTL was observing the whole process.

Rather, the thought that Earthlings can survive and even thrive in such an environment makes people feel that it's best to avoid provoking Earth.

Some simulations have shown that even if Earth hadn't undergone any weapon upgrades a month ago, wiping out the entire Reicuran alien fleet wouldn't be a problem at all. Putting aside the missiles from the Friendship Project, the Zilda gas alone is a terrifying thing.

Earth and Nix are also connected; the Muzhen aliens and Naga aliens have angered them, so it would be strange if they weren't wiped out.

The planet Adran and the Standelians are one thing, but the Clooney aliens must be incredibly lucky!

Sigh, another day of envying others. As the group was talking, the door suddenly opened, and a voice suddenly rang out, "Who has information or data about Earth? I'm willing to pay a lot of money to buy it!"

"We've got a job!" That was the consensus among everyone. Then they couldn't help but turn around to look, wondering which universe had sent this sucker this time.

Anyone who comes in and immediately asks about Earth is basically a country bumpkin from another universe, thinking about seizing Earth's powerful forces. They don't even consider that if Earth were so easy to bully, the locals would have already attacked.

Turning around, I saw a complete stranger from outer space, wearing a strange mask.

The newcomer was none other than Volugan. After being resurrected by Modius and given the mission of causing trouble for Earth, he was initially quite worried because the enemies were getting stronger and stronger. However, after obtaining the Dark Armor of the Alien Empera, he became somewhat arrogant.

Volugan felt his current strength had surpassed that of the Alien Empera. Since he was already like this, wouldn't it be simpler to just go to Earth and wipe them out?

But after thinking about it, since Modiwus didn't personally take action, there might be something unusual on Earth. Hmm, it would be better to come to this universe specifically to inquire about information about Earth.

"I am Volugan, a Magma alien. Does anyone have intelligence about Earth?"

Who will go? The group of aliens exchanged glances in secret. Then, the Natan alien thought for a moment and said, "I know. Hmph, if Earth weren't so far away and didn't offer any advantages, we Natan aliens would have occupied it long ago."

Upon hearing what the Natanian said, Worugan sat down immediately, took out a high-purity energy crystal, and placed it on the table. "Tell me the details; this is part of the payment."

There is no currency called Volugan here, but energy is a hard currency throughout the universe, and its purity is more than enough to power a spaceship.

"Can't even come up with any money, what a country bumpkin from outer space. But this crystal is pretty good," the Tantian thought to himself. "Speak, what do you want to know? I just happened to pass by Earth about a month ago, so I don't know much."

Information from a month ago? That's not outdated on a cosmic scale. It's only been a month. How much can a civilization grow in a month? Anyway, Volugan doesn't think there's anything to be afraid of.

"Hmm... tell me about Earth's strength and other aspects." Volugan was full of confidence in himself. After all, he was much stronger than before. If he had this ability back then, he would have been reduced to ashes by that Cosmic Beast Fist long ago.

Meanwhile, the other aliens lowered their heads and quietly sent messages to their friends and family, as well as to the aliens lurking on Earth, reminding them to repost the message. Oh, and if possible, to buy some Earth specialties to bring back.

"Ha, what do you mean by those aliens emptying the supermarket?"

After hearing Goroki's report, Leo's expression was unusually strange. Everyone from ESCG blinked, wondering if they had misheard. The key point was that, according to the Special Investigation Division's report, these aliens had actually paid the money.

"I don't know. Could it be that they're raising monsters that need a lot of food to feed them?" Gou Lumu couldn't think of any other reason.

“What kind of monster would like Coke, Sprite, or probiotic drinks? A mixed flavor?” Leo scratched his head. “Besides, they’re not stupid. It’s one thing if they didn’t know Earth before, but these past few days, seeing Earth’s fighting power, they’re walking around with their tails between their legs.”

With Earth's fighting power, what kind of monster would it need to raise to eat all this stuff? Leo couldn't help but mutter, "Even my three Zettons couldn't eat this much."

The group, who were pondering the reason, did not hear Leo's muttering. They were also curious about what he was doing. Surely he couldn't be smuggling. The universe is so big, are Earth's snacks and drinks rare?

Chapter 377 Galaxy Spark: Sneaking Out, Still Sneaking Out!

"Alas, what a blunder, what a blunder!" Leo sighed deeply, watching Captain Gentoo chatting and laughing with his wife and son, while Rena and Daigo discussed their future marriage plans, intending to get married next year.

Fujimiya and Gayu are also talking with Reiko and Atsuko, and Leo occasionally overhears them discussing things like weddings. It's nice that everyone has someone they like, although a few might have slightly different preferences...

"Kai, can't you guys take better care of the fighter jets? Do you know how troublesome it is for us to repair them? The logistics department is so angry they want to tear you apart."

"Ahem, well, there's nothing I can do about it, Jugglus, you should also..." Gai casually revealed a card of Ultraman Tiga. Jugglus looked away, a mocking smile on his face. "Ha, what is this? I have no idea what you mean."

This guy is definitely doing it on purpose. Hong Kai couldn't help but clench his fists. He really wanted to punch him. He was so annoying.

Komon then walked up to Leo with his girlfriend. "Vice-Captain, this is my girlfriend, Riko Saida. Riko, I don't need to introduce you, Vice-Captain, do I?"

"Of course, all the students in my class really admire Vice Captain Leo. Oh, I'm going to brag about it to them when I get back."

Komon's girlfriend, Riko Saida, is clearly a gentle and sunny type of girl. Such girls are popular wherever they go. Leo noticed that she also has a strong aura, which means that Riko also has the ability to become an Ultraman.

Could it be that Faust's previous plan to lure Komon away and then attack Riko's family was partly due to this reason? Did he intend to take Riko away and use her as a key to deal with Komon?

"Hello, Ms. Riko, just call me Leo, no need to be so formal." Leo waved his hand casually. He had a good relationship with everyone at ESCG, and even Lina had gotten used to not calling him by his title.

"In that case, Leo can just call me Riko." Riko didn't expect Leo to be so easy to get along with. You know, Leo's public image is known for being tough and ruthless, the kind of person who has risked his life several times. His publicity is also like that, with the advertising department focusing on taking photos of that kind of person.

Although some people say that Leo is actually very gentle and refined, very few people believe it. You have to know that all the orders to eliminate the messy Church of Salvation were issued by Leo, and his toughness was so strong that even Director Yoshioka was astonished.

"So, Fujiwara, the person you're waiting for hasn't arrived yet?"

"Soon, yeah, after all, kids aren't usually allowed in. I just spoke with the police department."

Hearing Fujiwara say this, Leo couldn't help but sigh. It seemed like he really was all alone. It didn't seem appropriate to call anyone else. The girls at home were either training or busy, and Galatron was also operating at full capacity and couldn't spare the time.

Even Hilarious and Cordara have to help maintain the weather and water veins. I should have brought Dimaga or Magabasa along. If all else fails, I could have brought Seele or Gatanothor and said they were relatives.

We can't just release King Grand from the Battle Nylon now, can we? That girl is small, but she absolutely refuses to be a junior like Gatanothor. She sees herself in the same position as Renlong and the others.

This is really troublesome. Daigo and the others are clearly trying to give him an advantage. Leo can't be unaware of this, but he and Renlong don't need to do this anymore. Even though he and Hilarious and Cordara still maintain a good relationship with each other.

"Where has Emperor Abela gone to right now?" Leo thought for a moment. His Majesty the Emperor was probably feeding those cats and dogs again. According to Galatron, Emperor Abela would go to a cat cafe or something when she had nothing to do. She really liked those things.

Although I appreciate Daigo and the others' kindness, I'll pass this time. Leo doesn't want to bother the girls at home with his own affairs. Everyone has been working hard these past few days to become stronger. Oji and the others are even trying out some kind of combination technique, but I don't know what it is.

I'll think about getting a cat for the house later. As for today... it's not a big deal to be alone. Gento and the others wouldn't reject Leo anyway. It's just that he seems a little strange.

"Leo!"

"Hmm, who's calling me?" Leo subconsciously turned around, only to be knocked back several steps. All he could see was a head of long, silver hair. The voice sounded familiar, but it was so sudden that he couldn't quite place it.

Who is this? The same question popped into everyone's mind. After a brief hesitation, Leo instantly realized, "Silver... Coshiel?"

That was close! I almost shouted out "Galaxy Spark." Wait, why is she here? No, if Rukiel were to lose her temper... Oh, she's in seclusion, training.

"Hey, don't worry." Ke Xi'er blinked at Leo and gave him a playful smile. "I just sensed that she didn't have time to pay attention to what was happening outside, so I came to find you."

“But you’re not…” Leo finished speaking, then looked at Ida Mari who had walked up to Fujiwara Juri, and was speechless for a moment. No, how could there be such a relationship? I’ve never heard of it before.

Daigo and the others were already somewhat dazed. What was going on with this girl who rushed straight into the vice-captain's arms? And wasn't this girl Ida Mari? Was she originally Fujiwara's relative?

Fujiwara Juri scratched her face a little embarrassedly, "Actually, I only found out recently that the daughter of my relative was her."

"Hello, everyone." Ida Marie blinked, looking sweet and cute, which was very endearing. Daigo and the others all liked her. Even Jun Hiruma, the son of Captain Gento, was quite surprised to see his classmate.

"This child is indeed quite surprising, but... what's with this girl?" Hong Kai looked at Koshier standing with Leo with disbelief.

What's with this feeling? The vice-captain exudes a serious aura, and sometimes even feels quite frightening; someone who doesn't know him might mistake him for a member of the dark forces.

This girl named Ke Xi'er exudes a gentle, relaxing aura, and seems to have a cheerful personality. She is completely opposite to the vice-captain, but why does this complementary feeling seem so obvious? The two of them seem like they could be a perfect match.

With a "snap," Luciel, who was inside the Dark Spark, broke the weapon in her hand. "What's going on? What's causing this unpleasant feeling? Am I being too anxious?"

That's quite normal, after all, she's been busy for a long time but hasn't made any progress. She didn't even chat with Leo today. She's always had a short temper, so it would be strange if she wasn't anxious. Luciel thought to herself, resting her chin on her hand.

"Leo is very skilled with swords, but he seems to have a better talent for polearms. We don't need a staff. Hmm... let's think of something else."

If I finish this weapon sooner, Leo will definitely look at me with new respect. At that time, that ***** Galaxy Spark will be no match for me. Hmph, trying to steal Leo away? No way!
