Cosmic Hero, Superman A-Guang

Chapter 40 The Dark Bird Zoga Appears

Lately, Yang Guang has been having nightmares about the extinction of an ancient civilization 30 million years ago.

In the dream of the open Chijera, humanity became addicted to the dream, ceasing to strive, to work, and to improve themselves. They began to drift along, and started to act recklessly.

Upon seeing this, some Ultramen initially tried to dissuade humanity, only to be met with insults and rejection. Some transformed into light and returned to their homeland, leaving behind only their battle-ready bodies. Others remained to fight against the darkness, eventually exhausting their energy and turning into stone statues.

However, today's dream is longer than ever before:

Yang Guang dreamt that he was Ultraman Geed, and together with Geed, they fought countless Zoga to protect humanity. After defeating many, many Zoga, Geed exhausted all his energy and turned into a stone statue. Geed also consumed most of his energy. Yang Guang and Geed hid in a cave.

"This can't go on. Humanity will perish, and Earth will be swallowed by darkness. My energy is almost depleted, and I must leave this place." Gade pondered a solution, but there was simply no other way to save humanity.

So, Gade left his body behind and transformed into light, flying into the universe.

Goodbye, humanity! Goodbye, Earth!

However, as he flew out of the atmosphere, space suddenly fluctuated and became very unstable. A spacetime turbulence suddenly appeared in front of Gade and sucked him in.

Under normal circumstances, spatial instability does not occur. Only under the influence of massive energy impacts, explosions, or when someone uses special abilities to open a spacetime channel will such unpredictable chain reactions occur.

At this moment, Gatanothor appeared, and his endless dark energy enveloped the entire planet, causing spatial instability.

Gade then vanished in a flash of light at an extremely high speed, which also had a certain impact on the space around him.

Neither the light energy emitted by Gade nor the dark energy emitted by Gatanothor had reached the threshold required to create a portal to spacetime.

However, light and darkness, as two opposing attributes, created incredible power through their entanglement, generating numerous spacetime turbulences of varying sizes. Unfortunately, Gade was caught in one of these turbulences. The energy within these spacetime turbulences is extremely unstable; being caught in them would essentially result in being torn to pieces.

Of course, Ultraman could still withstand it, but Geed's energy was insufficient at the moment. In the end, although he successfully escaped from the spacetime turbulence, he exhausted almost all his energy, could not go anywhere, and could no longer even maintain his giant form. The light fell to the ground and transformed into the form of a human baby.

This is Blue Star. At this moment, in a Taoist temple in the mountains, an old Taoist priest saw a beam of light fall from the sky onto a mountain not far away, so he went to investigate...

Yang Guang woke up from his dream, a look of sudden realization on his face. "So that's it, I am Ultraman Geed in my true form."

During this period, Daigo also frequently dreamed of apocalyptic scenes from 30 million years ago.

One night, the Victory Team received an alert about an unusual bulge in the waters off New Zealand in the South Pacific.

Everyone got up in the middle of the night and gathered in the command room. Through the screen, they saw the underwater scene: it resembled a city, but it appeared to be destroyed. This was video footage sent by an underwater drone dispatched by TPC. Simultaneously, instrument scanning confirmed that it was built 30 million years ago.

Seeing this, Yang Guang roughly knew what the plot was about: Gatanothor, the ruler of darkness, was about to appear!

Suddenly, a monster burst out of the water—that's right! It was Zoga.

Zoga was very fast, and soon flew to Australia, where it began to unleash energy balls to destroy the city.

Lina and Daigo each piloted the Flying Swallow 1, while Shinjo and Munakata piloted the Flying Swallow 2.

You might ask why there are two Flying Swallow No. 1 aircraft. Isn't that normal? After all, planes crash frequently, so is it strange to have a few spare aircraft? Not at all!

Last time, Director Sawai held a meeting with leaders of various countries and decided that each country would establish its own Victory Team, which would possess different types of fighter jets. Humanity has once again begun large-scale weapons development.

It would be strange for a planet to lack the ability to defend itself. After all, the universe is so vast, and no one can guarantee that there will never be an alien invasion. Even a powerful planet like the Land of Light has a space patrol force.

If you lack the support of force, bad people will definitely take advantage of you. With the support of force, you may not necessarily do bad things, but you can prevent bad people from taking advantage of you.

Of course, focusing solely on developing military force is definitely wrong; we must also pay attention to the improvement of our thinking. Without wisdom, military force will become uncontrollable, leading to negative consequences.

What's that saying again? Working out is so that even idiots can talk to me calmly; reading is so that I can talk to idiots calmly.

While this statement isn't entirely accurate, it does make a lot of sense.

Whether it's an individual, a nation, or the entire planet united, a two-pronged approach is essential. Developing both military force and spiritual strength in parallel is the only true solution.

After a chase and attack, Zoga escaped, and the group had no choice but to return to base.

Yang Guang arrived at the scientific research center underground at headquarters and found Dr. Yawei and his team.

"Dr. Yawei, how's the latest Magus Power System light energy transmission device coming along? I have a feeling we'll need it soon," Yang Guang asked.

"Ah~ It's finished and installed on the Atdis. This time, the energy output intensity has been increased, providing Ultraman with much stronger energy, several times more than before. At the same time, it has also been installed on the Snow White, so it can transmit energy to both Ultraman simultaneously," said Dr. Yamata.

"That's great." Yang Guang returned to the Victory Team's command room after getting the answer he wanted.

Meanwhile, in the Victory Team's command center, Director Sawai and Chief Yoshitsugu were discussing Zoga and the ancient civilization with everyone.

"If we're in the water, let's take the Dolphin."

"Dealing with a monster is no problem for the Dolphin."

"No way!" Yang Guang walked in and heard someone wanting to go to their death. What a joke! Gatanothor is there. What's the point of killing a Zoga?

"Why?" Ji Gang asked.

“That is indeed Zoga’s lair, but there’s more than one Zoga, there are many!” Yang Guang said.

"There are many? How did you determine that?" Director Ji Gang asked.

“Not only is there Zoga, but there’s also a very powerful monster, the ruler of darkness, the culprit who brought destruction to the ancient civilization 30 million years ago, Gatanothor!” Yang Guang didn’t answer Captain Jigang’s question, but continued.

"If we can eliminate it, the Earth will finally achieve peace," Yang Guang said.

"Oh? How do you know all this? Who exactly are you? I investigated your background before, but I didn't find anything about your past. I only know that Captain Megumi helped you obtain your identity and got you into the Victory Team. Out of trust for Captain Megumi, I didn't pursue the matter. Now can you tell us?" Director Sawai said.

That makes sense. As the head of TPC, how could he not know his frontline team members? After all, there are only eight people in total, and everyone's resume is crystal clear. So Yang Guang's identity can't really withstand scrutiny. An ordinary person wouldn't be able to find out, but Sawai, as the director, could, since he has the highest authority.

Apart from Daigo, the rest of the GUTS team looked at Captain Kijima in surprise. The captain was hiding something from us again!

“Director-in-Chief~” Megumi Kijima was about to explain.

"Now that things have come to this, there's nothing left to hide! Thank you, Captain Ju, for your help, and thank you, Director, for your trust. Actually, I am Ultraman Geed!" Yang Guang revealed his true identity.

"What!" Sawai Yoshitsugu was shocked by Yang Guang's words!

“I see, no wonder you can always see through aliens,” Horii said.

"Good lad, you've kept this from us for so long!" Zong Fang said with a smile.

"And Daigo is Ultraman Tiga!" Yang Guang continued to reveal.

"Uh... I haven't figured out how to explain this to Lina yet. How did you manage to leak it to her again!" Daigo was speechless.

"The next monster is different from any we've seen before. It possesses powerful dark energy, and even if Tiga and I team up, we're no match for it. We'll need everyone's help in this battle. If we fail, the entire world will be plunged into darkness, and humanity will be destroyed," Yang Guang stated, emphasizing the gravity of this battle for humanity. It was a crucial battle for the very survival of humankind!

At that moment, beep beep beep~ The radar detected Zoga's trail.

“Zoga has appeared again. Let’s go and eliminate Zoga first!” Megumi suggested.

"Yes!"

So the Victory Team set off in the Flying Swallow.

After a chase, it was discovered that Zoga was too fast and the Flying Swallow could not keep up.

"Daigo, transform into Ultraman Tiga, change your aerial form, and shoot down Zoga!" Yang Guang shouted into the communicator.

"Yes." Daigo jumped out of the plane, transformed into Ultraman Tiga, and then switched to his aerial form to chase after Zoga.

After a chase, Tiga finally caught up with Zoga, knocking him to the ground with a Lampard Beam. Tiga then transformed into his powerful form and proceeded to pummel Zoga. Finally, he unleashed a final Delasium Beam to destroy him.

The group returned to base, only to find that alarms were being sent from all over the world, with many Zoga causing destruction in various cities!

There were too many Zoga, so the group had to return to base to discuss countermeasures.

At that moment, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and black mist spewed from the ruins, spreading and enveloping the entire world. The ruins began to emerge from the water, and Gatanothor revealed himself. The Zoga wreaked havoc everywhere, forcing humanity to seek refuge in underground shelters.

It looks like an apocalyptic scene!
