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

Page 241

Leo suppressed the topic. Although he already had a general idea of ​​who to choose, he couldn't very well say it directly. The power of Ultraman... it was hard to say that it wouldn't be tempting.

The meeting discussed many things, mainly the possible attack that Gilbaris might launch next. Director Yoshioka and Director Sawai planned to ask Leo later what his plans were, that he had let his team members end up like this.

When the meeting ended, Leo leaned back in his chair and sighed deeply. This meeting was much more difficult to handle than the previous ones. The matters concerning Raymond's monster manipulation ability and Ultraman's excavation of the ancient ruins could not be concealed, otherwise TPC would be thrown into chaos.

Everyone is under too much pressure, and morale is a little low, especially now that Director Sawai is considering stepping down.

Just as Leo was about to explain his ideas to Director Sawai and Director Yoshioka, he received a communication from SKIP.

"This is SKIP, Vice Captain Leo. There have been fourteen missing persons cases near the T City docks today. Something seems off, so we hope you can come over."

"I'll be right there." Leo stood up, glanced apologetically at Director Sawai, and then sent Renlong a message saying he would probably be home late tonight.

During this period, Leo practically used himself to the point of being broken into pieces. Director Sawai was quite understanding of him, while Staff Officer Nanbara scratched his head and said, "This kid is becoming more and more unpredictable."

“Leo has his considerations and things to do, but today, some people are getting restless.” Director Yoshioka’s expression turned not good, and Director Sawai shook his head. “Pressure brings motivation, but it can also make people impatient. They’re just too worried.”

Even so, it doesn't change the fact that some people need to be reprimanded. Originally, I was thinking of retiring early, but now it seems that I should wait a while. Leo feels that there are some things that are inconvenient for him to do, and Fukami and Gondo are not qualified enough in this regard.

"It seems that it's too difficult for us old bones to retire." Director Yoshioka sighed. "I was originally thinking of opening an izakaya in Hoshiju Street after I retired."

"I'm even thinking of opening a small shop. I've already asked Kotaro Higashi to reserve the space for me," said Director Sawai with great emotion.

"You two good-for-nothings didn't even tell me!" Now only the injured staff officer Nanyuan has achieved his goal.

Chapter 406 Vampires?

There was no obvious dark aura. This was Leo's first reaction after arriving at the dock. In other words, it had nothing to do with Zagi and the Dark Shadow Mage. So what was going on?

“Vice Captain Leo, I’m sorry to have troubled you to come all this way, but I think it’s necessary to report this unusual situation.”

The SKIP member in charge of the investigation saluted Leo, knowing how busy Leo was and that it was indeed a bit of trouble for him to make the trip in person.

"Tell me about your investigation. What happened?" Leo didn't think he would be called here for a normal matter. If it wasn't a monster, was it an alien? But aliens should be dealt with by the Special Investigation Division.

"Here's the thing, we received an emergency call this morning saying that a worker near the dock had suddenly gone missing, and there had been strange noises in the vicinity since last night, so we came to investigate."

"After arriving at the scene, we couldn't find anything no matter what instruments we used. We were planning to report to the Special Investigation Division, but... one of our investigators suddenly disappeared right in front of me. At that time, our instruments detected a large biological reaction."

Large-scale biological reactions are usually found on Ultraman. Leo thought for a moment, "What direction should we take?"

At this point, the investigator's face showed difficulty. "That's why we specifically contacted you, because this reaction... is everywhere."

"What do you mean 'everywhere'?" Leo was shocked, but looking around, he couldn't even see a single Golza. Could there really be large biological reactions everywhere?

"According to the dockworkers, they heard some strange sounds last night, like something flapping its wings. After they were asked to identify the sounds, it was very likely some kind of bat. We collected some strange things later."

As they spoke, the investigators took out a transparent bag containing some hair. Leo frowned. "What are these?"

"It's already been sent to the researchers for testing... Oh, the results are in, take a look."

Leo took the tablet and glanced at it, his brow furrowing even deeper. According to the test results, the hair belonged to an organism not recorded in the TPC database, but DNA comparison strongly suggested it was a bat. The crucial question, however…

"Human genetic material too?" Leo realized that this matter was indeed not as simple as it seemed. "What kind of creature would have human and bat DNA? A vampire?"

(It's not impossible; there are vampire-like aliens in our universe, like in your Ultraman Jack volume 5 videotape. But they might be native to your world, which is really rare.)

Ampera never expected that vampires could exist on Earth. Leo pondered for a moment, "This thing looks a lot like hair... Show me the cargo manifests piled up at the dock."

The dock manager, who had been silent until now, quickly handed the form in his hand to Leo. "Look, it's all on here. We've already compiled the statistics. There's a lot of cargo piling up at the dock every day, which makes inspection very troublesome."

"It's okay, yesterday's..." Leo pretended to flip through the pages while releasing his mental energy. He was too lazy to check them one by one. Of course, he wanted to save as much time as possible, otherwise he wouldn't even have dinner when he got home.

Soon, Leo sensed something and looked at a pile of containers. "Those over there, were they delivered yesterday?"

"Oh right, it was shipped from South America. It's all just timber, but it's not ready yet... You mean?" The person in charge quickly realized.

"This is just my personal intuition, you all step back." Although there wasn't much inside, it was still necessary to go through the motions.

"I...I'll go get something to open it."

“No need.” Leo took out his laser gun, which he had barely fired more than a few times.

Just when everyone thought Leo was going to use his weapon to destroy the container door, he punched through the lock and then forcefully pulled open the iron door. Several bats flew out and were killed by Leo.

This scene left everyone stunned. Is this the physical ability of the so-called strongest human? No, doesn't his hand hurt?

These bats were far larger than ordinary individuals; the smallest one, even without its wings spread, was as big as its head. They were practically monsters. Leo looked at the torn pieces of wood and the holes under the containers and wondered, "Did they sneak in from inside the wood and then burrow underground to escape? And there's more than one of them."

“Vice Captain Leo, these…” The person in charge was now sweating profusely, realizing that he hadn’t noticed such a major oversight at all.

"You can't blame yourself for this. We've seen plenty of aliens and monsters, but we've never seen a local species that would smuggle itself out." Leo patted the person in charge on the shoulder. It was indeed not their fault for poor supervision; mainly because they hadn't seen many of this type on Earth.

In the past, monsters would appear directly, and aliens would start fighting as soon as they landed, but this time it's obviously different.

"It's four o'clock in the afternoon," Leo muttered. "I should still be able to have dinner in time."

“Go and inform the Victory Team to prepare for battle,” Leo said, then walked into the container and jumped into the hole.

This really stunned everyone. Why did this Vice Captain Leo seem so unconcerned about the potential danger? Has he always been this arrogant? No, the important thing is to get reinforcements quickly.

By the time the higher-ups started calling for reinforcements, Leo had already gone deep into the underground tunnel. The tunnel was very high, and it was clear that the vampires hiding in the containers didn't like crawling, and neither did Leo.

He'd already had enough going on today. The meeting he was in earlier had been incredibly stressful, and he was just thinking of going home to have a nice meal and relax when this happened. No matter who was behind this, he was going to make them regret it today.

“Those guys must have a leader, probably hiding in some special space. But this smell is really unpleasant.” Luciel sniffed and then retreated back into the Dark Spark.

"Then their leader had better be able to take a beating."

Leo put away the gun in his hand, then clenched his fist. This thing was still the best. Although telekinesis was more convenient, it wasn't as satisfying.

Judging from that hair, it's very likely that those vampires were also transformed humans... We can't let them live, otherwise who knows how many people will suffer.

Chapter 407 The Vampire God is Invincible!

The vampire monster Hyranos is a deity revered by the South American vampire race since ancient times, but he is neither an invader from outer space nor an ancient monster that has existed on Earth since the beginning of time.

But Hyranos knew very well that he was indeed a creature that existed in the ancient times. He was a type of bat from the superancient era, and this type of bat was on the verge of extinction after the outbreak of the Dark War.

At that time, Hyranos was one of the few remaining ancient bats. By chance, it came into contact with cells that Dark Gordis had separated before the final battle, and underwent a mutation. It took thousands of years for it to become the vampire beast it is today, with its own intelligence.

Although Shuranos still retains memories from 30 million years ago, it remembers the war that almost completely destroyed the ancient civilization and even the Earth, and it knows very well that it is definitely no match for Ultraman and Gatanothor.

Although Hyranos had special abilities, its actual combat strength was only on par with Garula at the time, and it might not even be able to defeat Garula in hand-to-hand combat. That's why it hid in South America for decades without showing itself, waiting until it had digested all its power.

Afterwards, the entire Earth experienced several more outbreaks of ultimate darkness, and Hyranos dared not show his face even more. He even suspected that the monsters under the great seals had broken the seals, but then he found that something seemed wrong. The outbreaks of darkness came in waves, but each one ended very quickly.

Was it just my imagination? Could it be that it wasn't the monster from the Great Seal that broke through the seal, but rather the Ultimate Darkness that leaked out? Wouldn't that mean I have a chance?!

Thinking of this, Hyranos could not suppress its greed. The powerful force of the ultimate darkness it saw in the cells of Dark Gordis was something that could drive all living beings mad.

Although he didn't know how much of the Ultimate Darkness had been leaked, even a small amount would grant him immortality. If his luck was good enough, he might even gain the power of Maga Orochi, and then…

Just thinking about such a future made Shuranos tremble. His future was nothing but light... Oh, for a vampire, light is almost like death; it should be said to be darkness!

The man in priest's robes who was in charge of serving Hyranos looked at Hyranos, not understanding why the god he served would suddenly laugh like that. In fact, he also did not understand why the god would send him and his believers across the ocean to this land.

"My God, you seem pleased?"

Hyranos nodded calmly, but it would not tell anyone the real reason it came to this land. It simply told its followers that it had come here to establish an empire of night.

"Really? My God... I see. Then I'll get them moving!"

It would be easy for Hyranos to cross the ocean. He could simply send his followers here and have them set up a portal for him. It wasn't difficult at all.

Calling them believers is a bit of an understatement; they're more like puppets. They were all vampires who were hypnotized by Hyuranos and infected with a virus. Although they have their own consciousness, they are essentially only obedient to Hyuranos.

Although I still have a deep impression and psychological shadow of the Dark War 30 million years ago, 30 million years have passed after all. So many outbreaks of ultimate darkness have not had much impact, so the Earth should be very safe now, right?

As for humans? Hyranos has dealt with humans before, but he doesn't think they pose any threat to him. His men were still using primitive weapons like spears a few years ago, and only a few outsiders have better equipment.

For example, this priest who serves Hyranos met Hyranos ten years ago. Back then, this guy even shot Hyranos. Hilarious! This kind of thing doesn't hurt at all. Modern humans have no way to fight against themselves.

The key is to use this time to create a large number of puppets, absorb more blood, and find the ultimate darkness to become stronger. The main reason for capturing thirteen people in the past two days is to test the reaction speed of humans and to gather some information.

However, the information that Huranos had was very limited, because his vampires could not help but drain the people they captured. He could only be certain that humans posed no threat to him, and could not even kill his own familiars; they were just physically strong.

Unlike those ancient people, who could just raise their hands and blast an energy blast right in the face. Those things hurt a lot and were incredibly powerful. A group of them could kill a Golza. Yu Lian was even more top-tier; she could slap a Melba to death.

In short, the conclusion that Huranos received from his subordinates was: humans are nothing to fear, they are no match for us vampires, let alone the great vampire god!

Hyuranos, who was constantly praised by his subordinates, became somewhat arrogant. His subordinates were all top-notch, most of whom were native South Americans, and a few were outsiders who had mistakenly wandered there.

In the minds of these people infected by Hyranos, Hyranos is the strongest being. The most recent recruit was a poacher who joined three years ago. They really have no idea what level Earth is at now.

What are Golzairba and Zetton? How could they possibly be a match for our great vampire god?

However, as a powerful servant of Hyranos, the priest vampire felt he had the right to manage many things. He also inquired about everything related to Earth, learned about the existence of organizations like TPC, and knew about other monsters, but he just felt that Hyranos was invincible.

Actually, Hyranos was partly to blame. In order to ensure that his puppets were completely loyal to him, he kept instilling the idea that he was the strongest. As he talked, his followers came to believe it, and he himself couldn't help but believe it to some extent.

So no matter what news they see or what information they receive, they always believe in their god, the vampire beast Hyranos, who is invincible.

"However, if we want to control humanity, we should start from the top. Let's send people to infiltrate TPC and turn their leaders, especially all of them, into our allies!"

The priest vampire thought his idea was brilliant and was about to boast when he saw Hyranos suddenly look up in a certain direction. "My God, what's wrong... someone's coming?"

Seeing Hyranos nod, the vampire priest sniffed. "Looks like humans are more useful than we thought... But judging from the smell, only one person came. Heh, what can one person do?"

With a cold snort, the priest vampire took out his phone to check the surveillance footage, then frowned, "This is... the vice-captain of ESCG?"

I've heard that although this Vice Captain Leo is only a deputy, he has considerable power in TPC and high prestige on Earth. If we could turn him into a vampire, taking over Earth would be much easier!

"You dare to sneak into our territory alone? You've got some nerve," the vampire priest sneered.

"They actually dare to do this kind of thing on our turf, they've got some nerve," Leo muttered, emerging from the tunnel and looking around. It seemed to be an abandoned dance hall; these vampires certainly knew how to pick a place.

The doors and windows were completely covered up and even nailed shut with wooden boards. There were also several people rushing towards this place within the range of perception. Had they noticed? But it didn't matter. Leo just wanted to vent the frustration he had accumulated during the meeting.

A message came from Ren that the bat Leo killed has been confirmed to be an ancient bat, but there were no vampire bat monsters in the ancient era. It is estimated that it was a mutated creature produced by the influence of the ultimate darkness.

"Not here... but this reaction..."

(It's probably an entrance to some other dimension; I'm very familiar with this kind of thing.)

Ampera readily chimed in, knowing that her own flagship, "Dark Fear," was an alternate dimension containing an entire continent, and she frequently traveled in and out of it, so she was quite familiar with these things.

(This also explains why huge biological reactions were detected everywhere. Because they were hiding in another dimension, they were essentially present in all the surrounding space. They probably weren't skilled enough, which is why they leaked the information at that time.)

After listening to Empera's words, Leo thought that there was no need to even call it the Victory Team. Why not just go to the other dimension and beat up that thing he didn't know?

Chapter 408 Gay Man: Crashing the Scene?

"What did you say? The vice-captain went to deal with the vampires?" The captain of the stringed man, who had just climbed out of the stone coffin, was stunned when he heard this. Wait, there was a Mortalanga this morning, how come there are vampires again this afternoon?

The group recovered very quickly, exceeding not only the medical department's expectations but also Leo's own expectations, who had thought they would not recover until at least the evening.

This time, Leo underestimated himself, or rather, underestimated the energy of the Eternal Core. After obtaining the energy of the Eternal Core that Leo had converted, Daigo and the others recovered faster than they had imagined. They could even clearly feel that their power as human hosts had been enhanced.

As an Ultraman, he certainly wouldn't get that many upgrades, but he would still become stronger. However, now is not the time to worry about that. The vice-captain actually went into the enemy's lair alone, which is too risky.

No matter how strong the vice-captain's physical abilities are, he is still human after all. What if the enemy has some special abilities?

Dunzi nodded. She was so worried about Meng's health that she rushed from Sky Base to TPC headquarters. She didn't expect everyone's injuries to heal so quickly.

"Yes, according to SKIP's investigators, the vice-captain went into the enemy's tunnels alone, and the last signal from his personal communication device was sent from an abandoned dance hall near a dock."

An abandoned dance hall, vampires... Daigo seemed to suddenly remember something, his expression turning serious. "Captain, we have to get there right away!"

For Daigo to show such an expression, this enemy must be extraordinary. Gento immediately nodded, "Komon, Daigo, you two go and provide support immediately!"

Daigo and Komon, who had just climbed out of the stone coffin, grabbed their clothes and rushed to Huan. Daigo had already guessed that this incident was caused by Hyranos, but he couldn't help but cover his head, his mind filled with images of fighting Hyranos with the GUTS team. But where did these memories come from?

No, let's not think about these things for now. The vice-captain will be in danger. There are many enemies, and if someone gets bitten, they will be infected with the virus of Hyranos and become its puppet.

Daigo grew increasingly anxious, mainly because vampires' physical abilities would be enhanced, and in addition, Hyranos was a monster with hypnotic abilities. If Leo had brought one more person, things would have been easier, but instead, he was acting alone.

"We absolutely mustn't act rashly, Vice-Captain," Daigo thought to himself. He only hoped that Leo's solo incursion was to ascertain the enemy's strength, and that they absolutely couldn't get caught in the crossfire, otherwise...

Leo was somewhat surprised to see the female vampire grab his arm and bite him. These guys were quite agile, their physical abilities were almost on par with the defense team cadets.

The female vampire bit down on Leo's arm, then froze for a moment. A sharp pain shot through her teeth, and she quickly released her grip and stepped back, covering her mouth and staring at Leo in disbelief. Was this guy wearing some kind of super-hard internal armor? But her teeth could bite through steel plates!

"The clothes are torn," Leo muttered. These guys have really sharp teeth. TPC uniforms are made of special materials, and they managed to bite through this. It's definitely not safe to keep it.

Actually, Leo ventured here alone not only because he was in a bad mood and wanted to end everything as soon as possible, but also because he wanted to get here quickly to see if he could save a few people. However, after scanning around, he found that there were no signs of life.
