"Bang."

Ultraman Max breaks through the cosmic barrier and leaves the G&D universe, and the scenery in front of him changes dramatically.

Under the misty and brilliant sky, one after another "bubbles" like crystal balls appeared in front of Max.

Every bubble is a universe.

Many years ago, when Afterglow set out from the Land of Light to fight against the Belial Galactic Empire with Bei Laobai and Sero, he had also seen the grandeur of the multiverse firsthand.

Max Galaxy released a golden beam of light that pointed at one of the "bubbles".

It is the universe that belongs to the Land of Light, and there will always be light to guide Max home, no matter when.

He was just about to return when he was suddenly in a state of shock.

His instincts reminded him that something terrible had just "passed" him.

But when he looked around, he didn't see even a shadow.

In the next moment, Max's light energy converged on the eye, magnifying the [Ultra vision] to the limit, and finally "cracked" some of the truth.

It was a black phantom that roamed the multiverse.

Its size is frighteningly large, and it is not much better than the "bubbles" around it.

"Is this the ......?"

Even with supervisual vision, Max still doesn't see very well as if he was looking for flowers in a fog.

In his eyes, most of the body of this giant shadow was hazy, and only the nine huge heads were relatively clear.

A body as big as the universe, nine heads, and an earthly breath......

Is this the legendary [Hydra], with its projection in the three-dimensional universe in front of you?

Even Max, who was once crowned "the fastest and strongest", couldn't help but feel a sense of insignificance at this moment.

As a [Planetary Civilization Observer], he has also seen many mythical creatures in the vast universe.

But even the [Unikin] who can make the things around him fall into the crack of time when he stands still, compared to the [Nine-Headed God] in front of him, it is nothing compared to the [Nine-Headed God] in front of him.

The world is so big, there are no wonders, there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky.

"Wait, that's ......"

Max stared at him and made a new discovery.

I saw that behind the nine-headed god, some black particles like "airplane clouds" emerged.

Some black particles floated around the multiverse, while others disappeared into the G&D universe he had just left.

"Is that the source of the dark energy in the Dark Star, which encapsulates the power of the Ultra Capsule?"

This can cause Seggu to produce mutated dark energy, which turns out to be nothing more than the "exhaust gas" emitted by the nine-headed god when he walks.

Just as Max was looking far away to see more clearly, a warning came from his sixth sense.

He so boldly "snooped on the gods" that it seemed ...... His attention has been reached!

The next moment, the rightmost head of the Hydra turned slightly, looking in Max's direction.

Max shuddered, bowed to the hydra, and then turned to leave.

He broke the barriers of the universe and sank into the "bubble" of the universe of the Land of Light.

Hope you didn't provoke its hostility...... If you are chased deeply, maybe the King of Ultra will be tricky.

The hydra seemed to understand that Max's weakness was an expression of awe, and there was no hindrance in the process.

He continued to wander slowly among the "bubbles", as if searching for something.

…………………………

At the same time, G&D Universe, Earth, Nebula.

There are ten days left, it is Christmas, and Xiao Lu and Pejia seem to be looking forward to it.

They don't have much affection for the brother Jesus with his hands pierced, they just like the festive atmosphere, and they take advantage of it to have fun.

And Afterglow is afraid of joy and sorrow.

Christmas, tokusatsu , these two words together make him feel quite scary.

Let's hope for a soft landing...... He would rather Xiao Lu go to the bar and grab the Christmas tree after being in high spirits, rather than have a dialogue like "the fate of the world and mankind is in your hands".

But Bei Laobai said that the afterglow was purely groundless, and recently he often lamented how lonely he was invincible.

Since the escape of Dark Belial, the "root of all evil", the Earth has been very quiet during this time.

Whether it's the monsters that will wreak havoc on the city after waking up, or the cosmic people who want to invade the earth, all of them have disappeared.

Afterglow knew they were scared.

As long as he and Bei Laobai are still sitting on this earth for a day, those careerists will not dare to act rashly, and can only clamp their tails and be people.

During this time, Afterglow was not idle.

He asked the golden dragon to open the space-time realm every now and then, scanning the earth again and again, searching for the Ultra Capsule.

It's a pity that there is nothing to gain for the time being.

"Xiao Lu, look, there is a dragon!"

At this time, Pegga, who was watching TV, suddenly shouted in surprise, and the people around gathered around.

In a clear lake surrounded by green mountains, a black shadow like a "dragon's head" appeared on the surface of the water and wandered for a while, and then dived into the lake again.

The host in the voiceover explains:

"Above, this is a picture taken by a tourist at Lake Natsugawa by chance."

"You can clearly see from the picture that a creature that looks like a dragon has surfaced."

"Lake Natsugawa has sparked a craze for dragon viewing, and tourists have come to see it in droves."

Asakura Lu was curious: "Is it really a dragon?" ”

Toba Raiha frowned: "The picture captured is a little blurry, and it is difficult to judge." ”

Speaking of dragon-like creatures, the first thing that comes to mind is the [Dragon] from Ultraman Gaia.

But after taking a look, he felt that this thing that looked like a big rock snake had nothing to do with the "dragon" at all.

Afterglow: "It feels like it's mimicking the Loch Ness Monster and making hype to attract tourists...... Just ask AIB, they are more reliable than these reporters who listen to the wind and the rain. ”

"Is the 'dragon' of Lake Natsugawa fake?" Torily on the other end of the line said.

As soon as this news fermented, AIB sent someone to conduct a careful investigation.

The results showed that there were no large creatures in the lake, only small fish and shrimp.

"White is happy." Pei Laobai sighed.

He thought that there was a second "Yanagaki" at the bottom of the lake to relieve his itchy hands.

After this period of recuperation, coupled with Yu Hui's treatment, he has completely recovered.

In future battles, the situation of being instantly stretched apart due to touching old wounds will not occur again.

Afterglow pondered for a moment and muttered:

"No, my hunch tells me it's not that simple."

"Everyone, let's go to the scene to see the situation."

Five minutes later, everyone took the elevator of Nebulasso and arrived at Lake Natsugawa, where the incident occurred.

At a glance, it was called a gong and drum, and people came and went.

The tents were erected, the barbecue grills were also set up, and people were eating hot pot and singing, living like a popular scenic spot.

"It's my first time traveling!" Asakura rubbed his hands and looked around, eager to join in immediately.

"Hey, that's ......"

The next moment, Asakura Lu, who was looking around, looked stunned as if he had discovered something abnormal.

It was a little girl in a white dress, she was not sad or happy, she looked out of place with the tourists who were talking and laughing around her, and just looked at Asakura Lu quietly.

But in the blink of an eye, the girl disappeared into the sea of people again, making Asakura Lu suspect that he had seen it wrong.

"What are these people doing, aren't they afraid to wake up the dragon?" Looking at the revelry of tourists, Pejia couldn't understand.

In his opinion, the so-called dragon is a kind of monster, and there are many tragedies that have recently been ruined because of monsters.

How can these people take the initiative to get together with the monster habitat, aren't they afraid?

"They probably think that dragons are auspicious signs, and they won't mess around like monsters." ”

Afterglow didn't join the discussion, he went to the lake and observed, "It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it. ”

He crouched down and lowered his hand into the icy water of the lake to sense it further.

The next moment, he opened his eyes suddenly: "It's a little wrong, it seems that something is really sealed at the bottom of the lake!" ”

Asakura Lu: "Seal? Wait, Mr. Sunglow, did you see that girl in white?! ”

He saw it again, and he saw the girl in white and disappearing in a flash.

This time she stood at the intersection of a mountain road, silently watching him, as if trying to lead him over.

After listening to Asakura's description, Peijia became nervous: "It can't be a ghost......

Yu Hui's face was calm: "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

Several people broke away from the noisy crowd of tourists and headed towards the mountain path where the girl in white appeared.

As they went deeper, the noise behind them became quieter and quieter, and they had reached the mountainside.

Pei Jia nervously hid in the shadow of Asakura Riku: "According to my experience in watching horror movies, once you break away from the big army, ghosts will appear!" ”

Yu Hui stopped: "Say Cao Cao Cao has arrived!" ”

I saw a small ancestral hall built on the mountainside, with melons, fruits and sake as tributes, and a dragon-shaped bronze statue enshrined.

With a faint sigh, the figure of the little girl in white slowly emerged.

Asakura Lu was startled, and hurriedly said: "It has appeared again, have you seen it!" ”

Bird whispered to Ye's eyes: "I saw it too." ”

Yu Hui nodded lightly, and saw the girl's details at a glance: "Immortal obsession, Pei Jia don't be afraid, she is not an evil spirit." ”

The Pejia people were numb: "What, can you all see it, why can't I see it!" ”

What's going on with this feeling of being excluded!

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Yu Hui looked at the bird whispering on the side and frowned.

In the case of yin and yang, the soul body cannot be observed with the naked eye.

Xiao Lu and he are both Ultraman, so it's not strange to see a soul body.

And Pejia is just an ordinary young cosmic person, so even if the little girl takes the initiative to appear, it can't be seen.

Then why can you see it?

She is not like the original play, with the Star of Stru, the King of Ultra.

As an ordinary person, why is she able to break through?

Just as Afterglow was pondering, the little girl in white asked faintly, "Do you know the legend of the Summer Watch?" ”

Bird whispered to Ye and actively communicated: "Summer watch? Can you tell us a little bit about this place? ”

The girl in white nodded and said slowly:

"A long time ago, at the bottom of the lake lived the guardian spirit of the village, the 'Summer Watch' dragon."

"One day, there was a dispute between the villagers, which defiled the village's forest and lake."

"So the dragon got angry and attacked the village, and the fire burned, and many people died because of it."

"Later, the heroes of the village built this ancestral hall and sealed the dragon, and the villagers vowed not to destroy the environment again......

Yu Huixin said that he was not a patron saint, why did he go on a killing spree for this reason, what did he protect?

This dragon called Xia Zhi's watch, shouldn't it be the same way as the inspiration king in "Journey to the West" who eats boys and girls every year to ensure that Chenjia Village is smooth?

The little girl in white's voice fell, and he continued:

"Now, however, humanity is going to make the same mistake again."

"If this continues, the dragon will really appear, and the village will be destroyed!"

"So, please, please stop the implementation of the development plan!"

The next moment, the little girl bowed to the few of them, and the figure slowly dissipated again!

Yu Hui lowered his head, and Asakura Lu was eager to try: "Okay, let's stop this development plan now, when something happens, we can't sit back and wait......"

The chant was interrupted, and Afterglow pinched his neck to keep him from acting rashly.

He said: "Of course, it is not okay to sit still, but it is not right to act recklessly without figuring out the specific circumstances of the matter." ”

Bird whispered Laiye suggested: "Go to the local village chief and ask, what should he know."

Afterglow nodded and led the group to find it.

As a result, the hostess informed the village chief that the development plan was being discussed in the conference room and that he could not accept customers for the time being.

"Just, look at what this so-called 'development plan' is all about."

Afterglow asked Asakura Lu and the others to wait outside the door, then turned on the stealth mode and quietly entered the conference room.

The conference room was not big, but the atmosphere was dreary, with only three people.

The bald-headed village chief without hair was about fifty years old, and he sat in the center with an unhappy face: "How many times have I told you, there is a dragon's ancestral hall there, and you can't be alarmed!" ”

In front of him, a young man in a suit and bespectacles persuaded:

"Village Chief, there are hot springs around the ancestral hall, and it's a great spot."

"If you turn it into an exclusive hotel, it will definitely be full of tourists!"

"Moreover, the place where the ancestral hall is located is still the best place to look at the lake."

"Which is more important, the development of the small ancestral hall or the village?"

After hearing this, the village chief showed a tangled look on his face.

"Is there a contradiction between land development, and between commercial development and rural beliefs?" Afterglow understood.

At the same time, an orange-red ball of light suddenly descended from the sky.

This ball of light seems to be quite small, and when it enters the earth, it actually bypasses the AIB's monitoring network.

After the ball of light fell, a little girl dressed in yellow stepped out of it, curiously surveying everything around her.

"Four thousand years have passed, and they have come to this planet again, I wonder if they can pass the test this time?"

The little girl in yellow said lightly, her eyes full of indifference.
