Chapter 102 The Misinterpreted Light
Kaul felt as if he had been stuffed into a giant washing machine and churned around for three days and three nights. His vision was blurry, his ears were ringing, his limbs felt heavy, and his internal organs were churning.
After thirty million years of absolute stillness and slow recovery, the fatal wound pierced by Gatanothor's tentacles was preserved, and it is now in a state between serious and minor injury.
His Reonics became even stronger after that battle.
"here it is..."
Kaul gritted his teeth, shook his slightly dizzy head, and forced his confused brain to regain control of his body.
He steadied himself against the bulkhead and stumbled out of the life support pod. However, when he looked up and saw the scene before him, it was nothing like what he had imagined. Although he knew Golza and the others were heading towards the pyramids, but...
Isn't this a bit too unexpected?
Directly in front of him, the stone statue of Ultraman Tiga is still intact, but beside him are Camilla, Darramb, and Hitler, instead of his two comrades-in-arms from the ancient times in the original series, Darya and Solka.
There are even statues of Dagja and Gedi in front of it; the entire pyramid is packed full.
Golza didn't care who the guy in front of him was; he only had one mission: to destroy these statues, to annihilate them, and to prevent them from reviving in the modern world.
The closest statue was Daga's, and Golza didn't hesitate to strike it down with his palm.
Under Kaul's watchful eye, the Daga statue, having lost the protection of the light, was completely overwhelmed by Golza's power, its upper body shattering instantly! Huge chunks of rock fell from a height of fifty meters, directly striking the Gedi statue, which was lying on the ground in a sleeping posture.
The statue of Gedi made a cracking sound, splitting open from its spine and completely buried in the ruins of Daga's remains. The two statues shattered together.
"No... Daga... Gedi..."
Kaul never expected that after sleeping for thirty million years, the first thing he would see when he woke up was that the two statues he was closest to had been destroyed before his eyes.
Thirty million years ago.
That arrogant giant who always complained about his troubles and had a sharp tongue but stood in front of him in dire straits; that Gedi who always wagged his tail and was willing to give up his life for his master... They stood as stone statues in the pyramids for thirty million years to protect him, this stranger, as he slept.
Now, they have been shattered in front of these two monsters that they once took seriously, and it seems that they have no chance of being resurrected.
Kaul's mind was already slow due to not being fully awake, so the genes belonging to the Reiblood aliens in his body resurfaced on his skin, which was his instinct at work.
Just then, Kaul keenly sensed that besides the GUTS team and the monsters, there were other people around, and they were even approaching.
He turned his head and looked into the mist where the Daga statue had fallen.
Amidst the rubble, a man in a well-tailored blue suit, with a somewhat gloomy demeanor, stood quietly.
Masaki Keigo.
This one of the most outstanding genius scientists of the 21st century, and a modern man with the genetic factors of the ancient light, was not as panicked as the GUTS team. He was collecting the stone statue powder about Daga and finally looked at a huge core fragment belonging to the part of the color timer on Daga's chest.
Long before TPC received news of the giant's revival, Masaki Keigo had already sensed it in his sleep. It was the remnant consciousness of Daga calling him to find himself and merge with the stone statue that fought him, becoming Ultraman.
However, Masaki Keigo clearly didn't know much more about the matter, so after arriving here, he followed the remnants of Daga's consciousness in everything he did.
To the average person, it was just an ordinary stone, but to Masaki Keigo, it was a powerful, enduring obsession that had spanned millions of years emanating from it.
"I am not a replacement for Tiga... I am red... I am Daga..."
Yes, after 30 million years of wear and tear, in the end, only the part of himself that was most arrogant and somewhat obsessive about Tiga remained. As for the more beautiful aspects of his consciousness... they were already integrated into Masaki Keigo's body when they were passed on, but when they will manifest is still unknown.
When Masaki Keigo heard this voice, his body trembled with extreme excitement. He never expected that a giant would also have his own grievances.
A smile appeared on his handsome face.
"What a beautiful resentment... So, even gods in ancient times felt jealousy and resentment? Is this your reason for choosing me?"
Masaki Keigo slowly reached out and stroked the fallen upper half of the stone statue of Daga: "You don't want to live in his shadow, do you? You want to be a noble being, don't you?"
"Rest assured, Tiga. Tiga's power is destined to fall into the hands of weak mortals, while I, Masaki Keigo, possess a brain and body more perfect than anyone else's! I will take your power, I will let you be reborn in my body! Together, we will become the only gods who guide this world!"
Masaki Keigo took out the powder he had collected from his pocket and carefully placed it into a specially made shielded box. He also sent an order to his company to secretly obtain the giant's powder. He needed to revive him, which required rebuilding his body.
Having done all this, Masaki Keigo turned around, preparing to leave.
However, the instant he turned around, his gaze pierced through the rubble and collided with Caul's in mid-air, who was standing hundreds of meters away in front of the life support pod.
Masaki Keigo's eyes were arrogant, carrying a sense of self-importance as a god, somewhat similar to Karlfa's.
Kaul watched Masaki Keigo from a distance, somewhat puzzled as to why Daga ultimately chose Masaki Keigo. The current Masaki Keigo seemed to have no understanding of the meaning of light, and even his acquisition of the Titan's power was merely to guide all of humanity to become gods.
"Masaki Keigo, huh...?"
"An... newly awakened ancient human?" Masaki Keigo was startled. He could feel the indescribable pressure emanating from Kaul, but he was an extremely intelligent man. He knew that now was not the time to investigate. After all, this was the center of the monster battle, and he couldn't let TPC discover his presence.
At that moment, Melba above them let out a sharp cry.
Masaki Keigo sneered, picked up the box containing the fragments of the Daga statue, turned around without hesitation, and disappeared into the forest mist, vanishing without a trace.
"Fools who misunderstand concepts..."
