That's right, too.

Although Keigo Masaki is an overlord with a hard bow, in the end he still merges with the stone statue of [Gaiying].

In the original plot, Tiga's last Zappelio ray was mixed with the [Cell Transformation Beam].

So after Masaki was defeated, the stone statue turned to powder, and he also lost the ability to transform.

And this time......

He was beaten so hard that he lost his energy and turned back into a human body.

Therefore, the ability to transform is still retained, but if you transform again, it will probably still get out of control.

Looking at Yuhui's admonishing eyes, Masaki Keigo said, "Don't worry, I won't use this thing easily until I'm fully prepared." ”

Afterglow helped him up and walked towards the underground grotto:

"It is recommended that you think more during this time and correct the root of your wrong thoughts...... Let's start with a dog. ”

Back in the underground grotto, Yuki holds Ryosuke's puppy, Guydy, to Keigo Masaki.

In the eyes of Keigo Masaki before, humans were "short things", and things like "dogs" and "cats" were even lower creatures in his eyes.

But for some reason, he had an inexplicable closeness to the yellow puppy.

After being rubbed on his head by this humane puppy, his original frustration due to failure eased.

"Alright, it's time to go back."

Afterglow stepped forward and took the Dark God Light Stick from the [Photogenetic Factor Converter].

He then beckoned Ryosuke and found the members of the Victory team, who were conducting an investigation in Kumamoto City.

Yuhui waved his hand and walked out, "Alright, it's over, there's nothing to find, let's go back." ”

Since the demon god [Aemina] has appeared here, then [Durban] should also be nearby.

The hawkish voice in TPC has become larger, and if [Durban] is allowed to enter TPC's sight, the stable days of that circus may end here.

After seeing the afterglow, Xincheng was not surprised, but just sighed: "Is it all over, I ran for nothing." ”

Horii analyzed it scientifically: "I think this is a good thing, if the afterglow team has not solved the problem after a trip, it is a super big problem." ”

Lina thought for a moment, "That's right. ”

The group then stopped searching, and Yuki and Ryosuke returned to the TPC base on the Victory Feiyan 2.

"By the way, Team Lina, what about Dagu, didn't you come along?" Afterglow asked.

Lina said: "The captain wanted him to join the team, and the director agreed. But he felt that he was not qualified for the time being, so he did not come. ”

Afterglow thought for a moment, "It's something he can do." ”

After asking for directions, Afterglow found Dagu.

When he was about to return the object to its original owner, Dagu refused to accept the Dark God Light Stick.

"I don't want this, I'll just use this."

After speaking, he took out a golden divine light rod and was instantly stunned.

, why do you have two god light sticks!

Wait a minute...... It seems to be able to explain it very well.

According to the previous Dagu, he fused the Tiga stone statue in the pyramid.

At that time, he should have the qualifications to transform into Tiga, so it is reasonable to have a TV version of the golden divine light stick.

Later, Camilla gave him a wand of darkness.

In addition, Dagu himself is the reincarnation of Ultraman Tiga......

There are two godlight sticks, which are really reasonable.

"But it's useless for me to hold this thing."

On the way back to the room, Afterglow looked at the Dark Divine Light Stick in his hand, a little speechless.

Maybe it's because he takes two planes a day, or maybe it's because he is affected by the [Violent Electromagnetic Waves], and his body is very tired.

After staggering to bed, Afterglow falls asleep with his pillow on it.

In the midst of the nightmarish dream, Afterglow suddenly felt a strange feeling, as if his consciousness had been freed from some constraints.

There is an out-of-body feeling.

The consciousness is constantly drifting away, like a primordial spirit traveling......

Fly over the mountains, fly over the sea, as if summoned by something......

All the way to Easter Island.

"Wait, what is this place!" A chill spread, and Afterglow's eyes widened.

In the boundless darkness, a familiar figure stared at him.

It's actually ...... Ray Brown Multi-Star!

This Rebrondo was covered in golden brilliance, still in a soul state, and his gaze was cold and merciless.

"How is that possible!"

Afterglow shuddered, and was about to transform, but he didn't touch the white ball.

It's not just white balls...... His Awakening Battle Instrument, Ultimate Battle Instrument, Coffin Nail...... None of them are on me.

In other words, he is now a soul body that has been detained, and there is no physical body at all!

Beria is not around, the monsters are not around, he does not have the slightest ability to resist at all!

………………

Early the next morning, Beria, who had awakened consciousness, felt that something was wrong.

He stared down, the hands, the legs, the body...... It's afterglow.

"What the hell, I didn't attach myself to you."

Beria said, but no one responded.

In this strange silence, he realized that something was wrong, this was not possession!

In the case of Ultra's merger, although he dominates Ember's body, Ember's consciousness is still active in communicating with him.

And now, in this body, there is only one consciousness in him.

"That's not right...... Where's Afterglow, Afterglow! ”

After searching the entire room, Beria felt five thunderbolts.

The ultimate combat instrument, the black umbrella with the coffin nail, and the miscellaneous capsules, the miner's lamp from Jiuliang Island are all there.

And the afterglow soul is gone!

Even with the vanishing, there is also a blue circle of light on the back of his right hand.

Haruka remembers that when the two first met on Polis, Beria looked down on Afterglow, a weak human.

If it weren't for the fact that the two were fused together, they were forced to be one mind. He's long gone, and he doesn't care if he lives or dies.

Later, he was able to reluctantly transform according to Afterglow's wishes, also because he took a fancy to the increase in Regerdo's strength and attribute points.

And now......

In order to find Ember's soul body, Beria almost turned the TPC headquarters upside down.

The cafeteria, the operations command room, the R&D center, the senior conference room where the meeting is taking place...... He searched almost everything.

In the end, he came to Director Sawai, explained the situation directly, and asked him if he had any clues.

Director Sawai is very receptive:

"I think there must have been some special circumstance that caused Afterglow's soul to leave her body."

"Once I find any special situation, I will contact you as soon as possible."

Beria said, "Okay. ”

Immediately after, he came to Kumamoto City and found Keigo Masaki, who was walking his dog.

The latter didn't seem to have recovered from the blow of the failed transformation, and he didn't care about the company's affairs, so he just walked around with Guydy.

"So, you're Beria at the moment?"

After realizing what was happening, Keigo Masaki was taken aback.

Because of his attempts at ultra-ancient powers, he has a certain amount of research on "occultism" in addition to physics.

Keigo Masaki pondered, "Could this be the legendary 'Soul Leaving Disease'?" ”

"I've heard that some children are frightened and their souls leave their bodies for a short time."

"At this time, it is necessary for parents to take the clothes that the child wears and call him in the place where he often plays."

Beria said: "I don't see it, with me, what is he afraid of." ”

Masaki Keigo said, "That's right. Has anything unusual happened to Afterglow recently? ”

"For ordinary humans, Afterglow is abnormal every day, but there is indeed a strange thing. ”

He pulled out the Ultimate Combat Instrument and explained the function of this thing, as well as yesterday's anomaly.

Keigo Masaki exclaimed, "You can manipulate a hundred monsters at the same time!" It's incredible. ”

"So, I'll study this thing first, and I'll tell you as soon as I have eyebrows."

Beria said, "Then you hurry up, I always feel that Afterglow is not in a good situation now." ”

After returning to the TPC base, he planned to go to Megumi to ask about the situation, but he was pulled in the command room.

"Team Afterglow, there's an anomaly at the Space Observation Center, and there hasn't been any news for three days."

"What might it have to do with the meteorite incident that disappeared around there, I'd like to ask you to investigate it with Horii."
