Chapter 18: I Am Not Tiga
"Indeed, whether it works or not, it's always right to try."
Eventually, Camilla made the decision to put an end to the topic for the time being.
"So, what do we do next?"
Turning her gaze to Darlam, Camilla was expecting a concrete solution.
"It's very simple, just like the original Tiga."
"It is only in times of despair that the courage and hope in the hearts of mankind awaken."
Looking at Dalam, who has obviously lost his courage and hope, but has such a deep understanding of these two qualities.
As if she had sensed something, a strange look flashed in her eyes.
"In that case, let that imposter taste the true despair!"
Unaware of Hitla's anomaly, Camilla abruptly gave her final orders.
"I want him to know that he is not Tiga and will never be Tiga!"

In the dark and deep ruins of Lalaye, time is the least valuable thing.
"Is this a 'side effect'?"
Walking among the ruins of the ruins, Lu Xuan, who still maintained his Galvinian form, whispered.
At least half an hour had passed since the previous battle, but Galvin showed no sign of turning back into a human body.
On the contrary, the darkness around him continued to pour into Galvin's body.
Although it is no longer as violent as it was at the beginning, the constant influx of power is so obvious.
Most noticeably, the surface of Galvin's body has completely blackened, leaving only a few shades of gray that resemble shadows.
"In the ruins of Lalaye, you are the family of darkness......"
Floating quietly on Galvin's shoulder, the ant-like Pity explained.
"Over time, your sanity will eventually be consumed by darkness, and you will become a dark giant like Camilla and them."
"Unless you can give up the power of darkness and reunite the light with your own will, like the original Tiga, you can truly become a 'giant of light'."
Hearing this, Galvin didn't say anything to refute it, but just looked around quietly.
In You's eyes, Lu Xuan is a human who has inherited the "power of giants" and a "inheritor of light" who has taken the initiative to open the path of evolution.
However, Lu Xuan never regarded the identity of "giant" as his hole card.
Lu Xuan's real identity is a Galvin and the maker of Omnitrix.
The Galvin form is just one of many forms of Omnitrix, and it may not even be the strongest.
It was born by combining the most powerful genes of two monsters, Gorzan and Melba.
Known as the "King of Monsters", Gorba, an ultra-ancient synthetic monster, is the most powerful of Omnitrix's many forms.
In addition, Lu Xuan also has two hole cards, Zhizi and Imaginary Space.
Even if Lu Xuan was really trapped here, he believed that Tomoko would contact him sooner or later, and then use the "portal" to teleport himself out.
In fact, Lu Xuan's in-depth exploration of the Lalaye ruins this time was to prevent Gatanjee's early recovery.
Before this goal was achieved, Lu Xuan felt that it would not be a problem for him to stay for a while longer.
Lu Xuan wants to see, where is the limit of Galvin form?
Can these dark forces really affect the light of their own body indirectly through the giant stone statue?
"Wait, you're actively absorbing those dark forces?"
At this time, Yu Pian, who was about to say something just now, suddenly realized.
If it was only the dark forces that were passively pouring into Galvin's body.
I don't know when this situation has become Galvin's active absorption and devouring of those dark forces.
To this end, Galvin even went specifically to those places where the dark power was strong.
"Are you crazy?"
Glancing disdainfully, Galvin finally knew that Camilla hated Mercy so much.
Not because of anything else, but purely because some of the acts of mercy are too "hypocritical".
"You told me about the man-made god plan, and you told me about Tiga's past experience......"
"Don't you just hope that I can use myself as a medium to divide and consume as much of Gatanjee's power as possible?"
"I'm doing what you think now, and you're acting so panicked, isn't it a bit too 'hypocritical'?"
Without denying his intentions, Yu Lian only warned with a heavy face.
"I do wish you could seal the Camila and them and weaken Gatanjee's power, but I never wanted you to die here."
"If you take the initiative to absorb these dark forces, you will only accelerate your own depravity, and eventually become a minion of the dark forces."
"Far from stopping Gatanjea's recovery, it risks further exacerbating future crises."
At this point, Yu Lian emphasized again.
"You just need to defeat Carmilla and take away their power like the original Tiga, and you can delay the recovery of Gatanjee as much as possible."
Shaking his head slightly, Galvin was noncommittal.
"So, I'm not Tiga, and I don't want to be Diga."
Under his stunned gaze, Galvin suddenly stopped his steps and looked instead into a dark corner not far away.
There, the dark forces that bordered on substance were constantly surging.
"Sure enough, it's still as sharp as ever......"
With a calm voice sounding, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness.
"My friend, do you remember me?"
It was a man in a humanoid form and wearing a crown of heterochromic gemstones.
His face is slightly delicate, but the muscular size of his body is very exaggerated.
It's just that compared to the average bodybuilder, the man's body shape can support his muscles, and it looks like the perfect golden ratio, and it is not deformed at all.
"Dalam?"
Staring deeply at the man, Galvin asked tentatively.
"I'm glad you recognize me, my friend."
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
I saw that Dallam's human body was also staring at Galvin, but his eyes showed undisguised eagerness and fighting intent.
"I'm sorry, I mistook you for Tiga."
"Now I solemnly introduce myself, I am the guardian of the ultra-ancient civilization - the giant Dalam."
"It was a pleasure to meet you, our successor."
Without waiting for Galvin to speak, Duram continued to speak indifferently.
"You're right, you shouldn't absorb the dark forces from Gatanjee."
"Because those dark forces contain the will of Gatanjea, the more you absorb, the easier it is to become a dark puppet."
"The dark giants are different, the dark power in our bodies has been purified and transformed, and it is much easier to digest than the power of Gatanjee."
