Chapter 174 Devourer
Chapter 174 Devourer
After Diablo returned to normal, he went to see Tartarus. No one knew what they talked about, but from that time on, Diablo disappeared.
Titan trains his tribesmen every day. He thinks that among so many tribesmen, there will always be one who will inherit the light of Orb and become Ultraman Orb.
……
The first place Diablo went to was the universe where they had gone to look for Hikari. He remembered that Hikari still had a fragment of the Eternal Core in his hand, and he wanted to take it.
When he appeared, the first thing he saw was a group of Ultraman. He was a little surprised. He shouldn't have come to the wrong place. Shouldn't this be the Galaxy planet?
Cero pointed at Diablo and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Diablo glanced around and said, "I'm looking for Hikari. Where is he?"
Upon hearing this, Cero said, "Captain Hikari is in the Technology Bureau now. What do you want to see him about?"
"Just tell him that Diablo is looking for him, and he will come naturally."
"...Okay, stay here and don't move. I'll be back soon!"
After that, Zero went to find Hikari.
In the laboratory, Hikari is collecting Belia's power. If he can collect all the power and use his genes to cultivate a body, he may be able to be resurrected again, just like... it is destined for him.
Suddenly, Zero came and said, "Captain Hikari, an alien named Diablo is here to see you."
"Diabolo?!" Tregear asked in surprise, "Why is he here?"
Hikari said, "...Let's go meet him. I also have something to ask him."
Soon after, Hikari and Tregear arrived at the planet Shinhe, and Diablo was looking at the universe outside with his back to them.
Hikaru landed slowly, walked over and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Diablo turned around and said, "...Yes, I want the Eternal Core Fragment in your hand."
"Oh, of course, but I also want to ask you a question," Hikari said.
"what is the problem?"
"Where did Xiao Jie go?"
If he didn't have the ability to travel through space, then he would still be in this universe, but no one knew where he was, or even if he was still alive...
Xiao Jie was left behind by them, and they should take responsibility for this.
Diablo said, "I don't know. The last time I came here, I only saw the body of our king and Tregear, but not Xiao Jie. However, he is in his universe now, so you don't have to worry."
Tartarus did not tell anyone that Xiao Jie was Gatanjea, so Diablo didn't know either. He just thought that Xiao Jie had traveled back through the universe by himself.
"...That's good..." After saying that, Hikari handed the Eternal Core fragment to Diablo.
"I don't know what you want this for, but I can sense a lot of energy from the core fragments coming here. Perhaps you could stay here for a few more days and maybe you could collect quite a bit."
After Diablo obtained the core fragment, he also had that feeling, as if the fragments were attracting each other.
"In that case, I'll stay here for now," Diablo asked doubtfully, "Why are you here? Where is Belia?"
Hikari paused and said, "Belia blew himself up to destroy that strange thing. We are now planning to resurrect him."
Diablo frowned and said, "The gray fog that appeared in your universe is new even to us in Absolut. Are you sure it has been eliminated?"
If the gray fog comes back, he will have to be careful. He doesn't want to be a puppet being controlled.
"...I'm not sure. We don't even have a sample of the gray fog. And that strange man appears and disappears suddenly... He's like an unpredictable existence."
Hikaru is a scientist. He has been trying to find out the source of the gray power, but he has no clue.
That's why he wanted to resurrect Belia as soon as possible. If he and Belia joined forces, they might be able to find some clues, so that they wouldn't be so passive when the gray fog appeared again.
However, they did not know at that time that a force far more terrifying than the gray fog would descend along with the core fragments.
……
Earth.
Xiao Jie started going to school again, but this time he changed schools. In order to make it easier to take care of him, the Ampera people specially bought a school district house to make it easier for him to go to and from school.
Mebius continued to go to work. Strangely enough, since Zoga appeared, no more monsters appeared, and the defense team was much more relaxed.
Captain Poshui looked at Wei Lian who had finally returned to the team. He wanted to ask something but didn't. As long as Wei Lian was okay, it was good.
Occasionally, Mebius would come to help Xiao Jie with his homework. After a while, his teammates all knew that he had a younger brother in the future, and he had taken leave before just to take care of his younger brother.
However, they were never allowed to see Xiao Jie in the future. On the one hand, it was for their safety, and on the other hand, Xiao Jie was an Ultraman and was now in a state of amnesia. If he had more contact with humans, he might be assimilated by humans.
Although he likes humans very much and even has many bonds with them, his hometown is still the Land of Light.
If he were to choose between the Kingdom of Light and Earth, he would only choose the Kingdom of Light.
After a while, it was Xiao Jie's summer vacation. The summer on Earth was too hot. Even with the air conditioner on, Xiao Jie couldn't adapt to it. He was lazy every day and couldn't even eat.
In just half a month, he became so thin that his pointed chin appeared. When Mebius saw this, he started making curry rice for Xiao Jie in different ways, and even when he went to work, he would prepare a lunch box in advance and send it to him.
But no matter how delicious the food is, you will get tired of it after a few days, and it will be even more uncomfortable to eat something greasy in such hot weather.
The Ampera star said: "Since it's so hot, let's go to Groza star to escape the heat."
Xiao Jie raised his eyes: "Is Groza cool?"
"Ah."
"Then let's go now," he really couldn't stand the heat.
Afterwards, the alien Anperla told Mebius that he wanted to take Xiao Jie to escape the summer heat. Mebius agreed on the surface, but still put down the hand holding the lunch box with some disappointment.
If Xiao Jie wasn't here, he wouldn't have to do it.
Xiao Jie reached out and took the lunch box, saying calmly, "I'll eat it on the way."
Mebius smiled and said, "Do you want me to see you off?"
"Forget it, you're pretty busy too. I can just take him there myself. I'll be back in a few days."
"it is good."
Mebius leaned over and touched Xiao Jie's face: "I'll wait for you to come back, Ultraman Jeor. I haven't finished my lessons yet."
Xiao Jie: “…”
……
After the Ampera aliens brought Xiao Jie to the universe, they headed towards Groza. The closer they got to Groza, the lower the temperature became, but this was just right for Xiao Jie.
Now the Groza planet is covered with icebergs. The people of Groza live under the ice and rarely come to the ground, so Xiao Jie just found a place to lie down and have a good sleep.
After arranging Xiao Jie, the Ampera people went under the ice to exchange information with the Groza people. One of his former subordinates was a Groza person, so he was very familiar with this place.
Gauss and Justice, who followed, looked helpless.
"I don't think we need to watch over them anymore," Gauss said. "Why don't we go back to Zhulan? After so much time, there should be new humans there, right?"
Justice shook his head: "No, we have to watch him."
Since they were determined to do it, they had to do it to the end. When his heart was bright again, they could leave.
Gauss suddenly came up with a plan. He asked, "What do you say? I go and bully him, and when he can't bear it anymore and hits me, I beg for mercy and show weakness. Will that arouse his sympathy?"
Justice: "...If you're bored, you can sleep."
Gauss: "...I think this is a good idea..."
……
Somewhere in the universe.
The core fragment attracted a devourer, which was born to devour the eternal core. This is its mission.
However, the monster turned into a corpse the moment it touched the fragments, and then its corpse turned into a ball of energy and flew into the void.
There, a monster similar to Gatanjea was slowly swimming towards them...
Behind him are countless universes that have become chaotic.
In those universes, there is no justice or evil, no darkness or light, no clear distinction between good and evil; it is just a mess of energy.
However, the monster that controls these energies is conscious!
Where there is consciousness, there are thoughts; where there are thoughts, there is greed, and greed will only bring destruction.
His goal is to turn everything into chaos, replace Gatanjea's position, and take over all the power he left behind.
……
The thirteen complete Eternal Cores that Dark Orb wanted Diablo to get have all fallen into the hands of the monster, and only the broken one is scattered everywhere.
I'm afraid Dark Orb didn't expect that he had done something right unintentionally.
That is, before being sealed, one of the eternal cores was sealed in the body of Gatanjea in the Triga Universe. He thought at the time that no one would find this place, and when the time was right, the dark giant here would naturally awaken the core.
But he didn't expect that Ultraman Tiga would find out, and directly destroy Gatanjea of this universe and smash the Eternal Core into pieces.
He didn't even know that this broken eternal core became their last straw.
This seems to be a destiny, a power that comes from legendary miracles.
