Chapter 546

"Beta Capsule?"

Shinjo Aoi jumped: "You guy, it wasn't enough to blow yourself up last time, this time you want to blow up Qi Ming?"

Blow up?

As soon as these words came out, Qi Ming had an impression.

At the beginning of the Ultraman X theatrical version—"Ultraman X The Movie", Dr. Gormann was telling two researchers about the legend of the Origin Giant Ultraman while taking out a Beta Capsule he made himself.

He said confidently, "The Beta transformation device that can summon the Origin Giant Ultraman, I have already finished making it; the giant of light I saw when I was a child transformed like this," and then waved the Beta Capsule fiercely...

And then he blew up his laboratory.

So, did Dr. Gormann make another one?

Dr. Gormann heard Shinjo Aoi poke his dark history and waved his hand quickly: "I improved this one; even if it doesn't succeed, it won't explode."

Qi Ming thought for a while, took the Beta Capsule, and waved it upward.

"Wait, don't transform in my room, don't!" Shinjo Aoi was full of terror, quickly burrowing into the quilt for defense.

After a while, nothing happened.

Shinjo Aoi poked her head out of the quilt: "Hey, didn't explode?"

Dr. Gormann: "Can you have some confidence in me!"

Shinjo Aoi looked at Qi Ming, only to see that the Beta Capsule he waved was emitting dots of light, but it disappeared quickly.

It didn't explode, but the transformation didn't succeed either.

"I just felt a warm light; that's the feeling you have the moment before transformation, but it stopped abruptly." Qi Ming was thoughtful: "It seems, something is missing."

Dr. Gormann: "Missing conditions?"

He said that the Beta Capsule he developed would be left with Qi Ming, letting him pay more attention in the future and find a way.

For the next two days, Dr. Gormann carefully studied the Ultraman Key, racking his brains but having no clue.

"The Star Gathering part I am responsible for does indeed copy consciousness together, how could this happen..."

He believed that something went wrong elsewhere.

Shinjo Aoi had already packed her bags: "Can only find other development members of the Key to ask, and see if we can catch that 'most troublesome thing' on the way."

Qi Ming: "The most troublesome guy?"

Shinjo Aoi: "That red ball in the Ultraman Gaiya theatrical version."

In her view, the upper limit of the red ball that appeared in the Ultraman Gaiya theatrical version "The Great Decisive Battle! The Super 8 Ultra Brothers" and "Ultraman Arc" is incredibly high.

If the one holding the red ball to make a wish were replaced by Zhenfu Yuki, or someone more evil, then perhaps a disaster that requires "Mysterious Four Ultras" level to confront would appear.

Dr. Gormann said that his pursuit of it along the way was also intermittent; this thing is consciously avoiding him.

Shinjo Aoi said: "But we can't leave it alone; if a super villain, like Tregear, gets this thing, it will be miserable."

Dr. Gormann took out his "Anywhere Door" again, and the two will embark on the road to find other development members of the small broken watch and pursue the red ball together.

Before leaving, Shinjo Aoi patted Qi Ming on the shoulder reluctantly: "You have to live well when I'm not here."

Qi Ming thought for a while: "You also took the fragments of the Eternal Core for me, and you left the blueprints of Dyna Zeon; it seems it doesn't make much difference whether you are here or not."

Shinjo Aoi: "So heartless!"

The portal opened, and the two walked in.

"Let's go find that guy who claims to have 'divine talent' first; do you still have contact with him recently, Doctor?"

"He seems to be in Japan in another time and space, looking for inspiration for making games in a place called 'Snake Qi Eight Families', and by the way, playing with everyone..."

Qi Ming watched them leave. After they left, he stood for a long time, calmed his mood, and said slowly:

"Have a safe trip, come back early."

……………………………

On the night Shinjo Aoi left, three "visitors" visited Earth in the form of two purple balls and one red ball.

At night, in the dense forest of Oil Field Mountain.

The red ball descended, and a male with eyeshadow on his face and wearing a uniform walked out of it.

If Qi Ming were here, he would definitely recognize at a glance that this is the Alien Daise from episode 7 of "Ultraman Dyna", "Friend in the Box".

He is holding a firearm, seemingly searching for something.

Soon, he found the target.

In a dirt pit, a transparent box contained a small animal with blue-purple fluff, looking harmless to humans and animals.

It is the ferocious monster 【Gabish】.

"Shoo!" The next moment, Alien Daise fired directly, destroying the box along with the Gabish inside.

"There is one more..." After solving the target, Alien Daise muttered, feeling very tricky.

Besides this one, there is another Gabish.

Two Gabish once ravaged the Daise planet, committing monstrous sins, and even his daughter died in that disaster.

After paying a huge price, all the Daise people captured them and locked them in a special cosmic cage, compressing them from seventy meters to the current eight centimeters.

He was originally on a spaceship, wanting to exile the two Gabish into a black hole.

Never expected that after they exhausted their last strength, they actually ran away from the spaceship and descended onto this planet.

This is troublesome.

The Gabish, which had completely exhausted its strength, was now extremely weak; his laser gun could destroy it.

But if he couldn't find the other Gabish quickly, the material of the cage sealing it would lose its effect because it mixed with the air of this planet.

Commonly known as "oxidation".

By then, that Gabish, which had completely broken free, would soon recover to its ferocious posture of seventy meters.

Once it develops to that point, this planet will also welcome a terrifying catastrophe.

Must find the other Gabish before then and destroy it!

"Boom boom." At this time, the mountain rocks not far away suddenly collapsed, and a red glowing object emerged from the mountain body.

"Is it a mechanical creation of this planet?" Seeing that the thing had no intention of hindering him for the time being, Alien Daise did not act rashly.

The top priority now is to find Gabish.

………………………………

Early the next morning.

Satoru rode his bicycle, preparing to go to Oil Field Mountain to "offer love" on behalf of "Ultramanism".

The two sides had already communicated a while ago; a teacher from an orphanage under TPC would take the children inside for a spring outing in the Oil Field Mountain area today.

And he would bring a big bag of Ultraman toys to surprise those children.

Just...

Is it really spring now? Why is it so hot?

Not long after riding out, a heat wave rushed toward him.

The sunlight was blindingly white, and the wind blowing toward him carried a dry heat, sticking stickily to people.

The leaves on the side of the road were scorched and curled by the sun; every time he stepped on the pedal, it felt like he was moving hard in a steamer.

"After all, it's only spring now; it shouldn't be that hot, it's just my psychological effect."

Holding this thought, Satoru panted with sweat, pedaled the tricycle hard for half an hour—and then fainted from heatstroke.

Looking at the fallen bicycle and Satoru who was unconscious, Mefilas, who was following in secret, was speechless.

Satoru, oh Satoru, even Ultraman, who is as dazzling as the sun, cannot shine his light into every corner.

The Ultraman you believe in won't know you fell in this wilderness, can't come to help you, and won't take you to any Land of Light because you did good deeds.

In the end, only I, this old partner, can help you.

He was just about to appear to help, when suddenly he heard the sound of a car engine from afar.
