NOVEL WEB Chapter 697: Extras Have No Rights!
When the Victory Team launched their operation, inside the Sedick Corporation, Zhengmu Jingwu had studied Asuka Kazuma many times but still couldn't figure out how he transformed into Ultraman.
Could it really be because of that transformation device?
In his view, it was merely a light genetic factor transmuter. The true origin was still the light within Asuka Kazuma.
However!
He couldn't find it!
And Asuka Kazuma was tight-lipped, refusing to tell him anything, which was starting to irritate him.
"Even if you don't say anything, I'm almost done with my transmuter." Zhengmu Jingwu sneered, "Unlike you lucky ones, I will transform into light through my own power."
Asuka Kazuma could sense the determination in Zhengmu Jingwu's eyes and couldn't help but say, "The power of light cannot be forced. Without a correct heart, what you call persistence is just going further down the wrong path. It's not too late to turn back now."
"Do you consider yourself a special existence?" Zhengmu Jingwu sneered, "If you believe I can't control the power of light, didn't Belial and Toregia, who reverted you from Ultraman to human form, also control the power of light?" The reference version of this chapter is on M*V*LEMPYR.
"It's different; they are light by nature." Asuka Kazuma roared, "You should know that too, they were born as light, and we are human. Your will is not as firm as your desires."
"Hahaha!"
Zhengmu Jingwu laughed crazily, tears almost streaming down his face, "You truly see yourself as different."
After speaking, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, turning frighteningly sombre.
Leaving the lab, he ignored any calls from Asuka Kazuma and went straight to the underground base.
In the depths of the cave, two fifty-meter-tall stone statues stood in the center, surrounded by a ring of silvery-white technological equipment. In front of the giant statue, there was a very prominent control console.
The console was very simple, with an indentation in the center where a flashing sword was inserted.
But this device was not compatible with the super ancient genes. Zhengmu Jingwu needed more time to study the specific principles before he could apply them to himself.
"I didn't invite you here for a tour, did I?"
However, Zhengmu Jingwu's expression was unfriendly because Belial and Toregia had come uninvited, their swaggering steps making it seem as if this place was their own home.
"Hmph, human, you have no right to negotiate." Belial strode in, eyeing the giant statue and the beast statue beside it, snorted, "Is this Earth's warrior? Indeed, there's a force of light, and there's even a light-attributed monster? You sure know how to play!"
"Thirty million years, this Earth is interesting."
Toregia said playfully, "The super ancient civilization, with the addition of light giants, gained an entirely new potential for evolution, even creating statues of light giants from peculiar sands to wield powerful forces... if succeeded, it might have become another Land of Light."
"What a pity—"
Zhengmu Jingwu asked, "Pity for what? And what is the Land of Light?"
"The Land of Light is where Belial and I were born, existing in another universe as a planet full of Ultramen, numbering over ten billion."
Toregia aroused Zhengmu Jingwu's desire and fear, then shifted the topic, saying, "This Earth's super ancient civilization could have qualified to become a new Land of Light, but humans simply cannot control this power."
The Land of Light race evolved through a plasma spark, causing bodily evolution.
Conversely, this Earth's super ancient civilization relied on light giant statues, using transformation tools to merge themselves with light, infusing it for a body capable of action.
These are two different concepts!
One involves the evolution of life itself, the other is temporarily becoming light, essentially still human.
However, in Toregia's view, not all ancient giants were artificial; some were actual light giants, such as Tiga.
But the statue before them was created by super ancient people, modeled after Tiga.
Through the light embedded in the statue, Toregia could see its past 30 million years ago—
It was a boy with a pet, following Tiga's footsteps, who, with the help of super ancient people, created this statue in his yearning.
As for the beast statue, it was prepared for his pet.
The boy knew that Tiga's strength could not be surpassed alone, so he wished to rely on a companion's support...
"You say humans can't control the power of light?" Zhengmu Jingwu shouted angrily, interrupting Toregia's reading. Still unfazed, Toregia elegantly said, "Indeed, they can't control it, after all, the super ancient civilization perished!"
"They were foolish; I'm different, I'm a genius!" Zhengmu Jingwu snarled through gritted teeth, not allowing anyone to question him!
Even if that person is an Ultraman!
"Then we'll see." Toregia chuckled lightly, "I hope you can show me a miracle."
"Just wait, when I become light, my first targets will be you two!" Zhengmu Jingwu seethed through clenched teeth, ignoring the two as he began testing the Light Genetic Factor Transmuter alone.
"Why did you provoke him?" Belial asked.
"Anger is the best catalyst, capable of unleashing potential." Toregia slowly turned around, walking out as he said casually, "Although this potential is brief, the force erupted is brilliant, and when anger reaches its peak, becoming irrational, it grows even stronger."
