Chapter 458: NO. 41: You really completely don't care about criminals, huh?

NO. 41: You really completely don't care about criminals, huh?

In the story of Ultraman Geed.

Second-year junior high student Machang Yiping is not only a forum veteran; he can assemble a computer named 'Junk' from second-hand parts that houses Ultraman Geed.

He is also an expert skilled in computer technology and graphic design.

Just how valuable is this expert?

— All the data weapons supporting Ultraman Geed were developed by him.

— At the same time, Ultraman Geed's design and nature are also due to him possessing the CG 'Ultraman Geed' he designed.

At first glance, this seems fine.

After all, it's quite normal for such a role to exist in tokusatsu dramas.

Just like Dr. Hori in Tiga, Sei Shou in Taiga, the Class A War Criminal in the Land of Light, Kiryu Sento in Kamen Rider, and George Kusaki, etc., all are beings who can rely on technical skill to solve problems immediately when they arise.

The last of them is even someone Aomo recently visited.

But…

Machang Yiping is just a second-year junior high student.

Although his initial design ability was still crude, the CG 'Ultraman Geed' possessed by Ultraman Geed was also quite rudimentary at first.

But later, the supporting equipment he designed directly showed a leap in growth.

He can be said to be the incarnation of Tsuburaya and Dai Ge, single-handedly handling the suit design for Ultraman Geed and its extra equipment.

Besides that, he also has two close friends.

Xiang Zhiren and Jingshang Youxiang, the former being the 'human form' chosen by Ultraman Geed, the latter being the idea king.

Only when the three are together does the story of Ultraman Geed exist, allowing them to connect with the super agent Ultraman Geed and thwart the ambition of the sole designated villain to dominate Earth and the cyber world.

The kids' contributions are crucial, even surpassing Ultraman Geed's own setting portrayal, to the point that his performance is often jokingly called a weapons rack, somewhat akin to the treatment of fellow bracelet people from the same lineage.

This isn't a shortcoming; the demand for beast battles isn't something the story writers need to consider.

Aomo, who uses the story itself as reference material to seek useful information, also doesn't care about that kind of power disparity discussion.

He only needs to deeply understand the proportion of idealism and reality within it, then attempt to recreate it.

But frankly, even if he has such an idea, implementing it is still difficult.

So when he heard Tengwan Lixiang's question from the other side, he was stunned for several seconds.

"Even if it's really just this simple, can it be done? Mr. Lindon."

"Simple? It's not that simple at all, Mr. Fujimaru."

"First, finding a decent supporter equipment designer is hard—literally one in ten thousand."

"Second, compared to the original work and Ultraman Geed supporting each other, a slight growth path, I took a little shortcut by directly selecting pure-emotion low-age children, because all we need is to repair and awaken them, not truly cultivate an Ultraman Geed."

"And pure-emotion low-age children are equally rare."

"Especially in this era."

"Children from free-spirited families, not overly pressured by parents, can enjoy a normal growth trajectory."

"Meanwhile, children from strict, elite families are directly forced to 'know from birth'."

"What's more, some are even forced to have the 'mystery of the womb' forcibly broken by crystals and source energy."

"Therefore, in today's society, the precocious group actually occupies the mainstream, which is why the age threshold for adulthood hasn't risen despite increasing average lifespan."

"Early exposure to and understanding of the complicated world—whether good or bad, Aomo can't judge, but he can be certain this will become the biggest obstacle in his search for the pure-hearted."

"By contrast, Chaldea can immediately find a few such people, which is a relief."

"As for this locally specific national situation, the transmigrator Fujimaru Rikuka obviously can't understand it well."

"Fortunately, he has rich experience in 'dealing with abnormal environments and abnormal cultures'."

"Considering the work that Chaldea itself requires its masters to bear, calling him an 'experienced transmigrator' is completely appropriate."

"So he didn't dwell on this topic too much, merely giving a brief explanation of that super agent's status before ending the communication."

"From the online chatroom interaction to the terminal communication now in the room, the time spanned is close to three days."

"August 8th, under the East Yan Culture sphere, is generally a lucky day, but Aomo didn't feel any luck at all."

"The reason is largely that he broke a card in the morning."

"It's hard to believe."

"Even after eventually going to find Mr. Kiryu to help push the device to completion, theoretically there could be an eighty percent success rate card pool, yet he still managed to draw the twenty percent on the first try."

"Even the little card-drawing tricks he learned (referring to manual interference) couldn't stop this degree of loss of control."

"It gives the feeling of not having been modified."

"It made him involuntarily recall that the 'rabbit' he encountered wasn't a white-furred red-child, and he probably wouldn't have himself being knocked over by the coffee from that café."

"So rather than considering that the machine has a problem, it might be better to consider his own variables—"

"Surely it's because he hasn't had any negative energy lately, right?"

"Recalling the only time he rescued a card, it was still thanks to a burst of anger, so Aomo inevitably speculates this way."

"These past two days, aside from contact with Chaldea, have been sufficiently smooth daily life, and the contact with Chaldea itself is also proof of steadily advancing clues, which likewise makes him quite relaxed."

"So relaxed that he feels inseparable from the sofa, thinking today is inevitably too boring."

"At this moment he also can't help but recall the evaluation of the Demon God Pillars."

"Longing for peace yet unable to restrain madness… Although it sounds like some ordinary office worker, his self-evaluation isn't that high: he's just base."

"This is his self-critique."

"When busy he longs for leisure; when leisurely he feels the days are too dull—only those with electronic impotence think this way."

"Entertainment options are abundant, the game world even more colorful; Aomo isn't unwilling to roam, but he still has to brush online course hours to mix mercenary levels."

"He kind of understands why there are so many mercenaries not taking the regular route—the promotion channels for regular-route mercenaries are hardly different from ordinary technical professions, just a cycle of attending classes, taking exams, and obtaining certifications."

For many people, this will be an incredibly terrifying barrier.

But for someone like Aomo, a high school graduate who never went to university, it could still be a mental comfort to think of it as making up for the college entrance exam together with the trainer's exam…

— Thinking that, they actually feel like new negative emotions need to be dug out.

But Aomo didn't want to torment themselves to raise their draw rate, so they still chose to focus on online courses and the recently ended communication.

Regarding the plan to awaken the super agent, their replication approach is clearly correct.

Because of these two days' effort, today Tengwan's communication already mentioned the fighter jet re‑entered into the data world, which is slowly docking and merging with the support equipment designed by Chaldea.

Even the energy value that could not be strengthened by forced repair also improves in this subtle fusion.

Based on that development path, awakening will probably happen in these few days.

The all‑female children's team composed of Youzhen, Tongyao, and Kaitangshou Jieke handles the idealistic side.

The support equipment devised by Dafenqi, Bantian Jinshi, and Aidiseng handles the materialistic side.

By conducting docking and conduction through the data realm of the computer world, and gradually transmitting the children's prayers, even if that super agent is not the dream hero, they can still receive others' wishes.

But this way, we can preliminarily rule out that the opponent is one of those somewhat radical or twisted super agents from the Ancient Benefit Special Doctrine faction.

Normal super agent…

Although they seem like a transmigrator, they are also a major clue pointing to the true Gulite, right?

But it's not ruled out that Gulite remains a possibility of a famous legend.

After all, considering the opponent is also a setting of a super agent who wanders the multiverse, Gulite is completely the type of person who wanders around like Mr. Hongkai.

They are quite well‑known, but few people can actually get in touch with them.

But coming back to the point, if they wander the multiverse, does that include this universe as well?

They pondered this question, but secretly felt a bit uneasy.

It seemed as if they had overlooked something.

It's probably fairly important, but far from reaching the point of disturbing their peace of mind.

What exactly is it?
