NOVEL WEB Chapter 729: Mobile Ultraman
"Can I defeat the dark ruler?"
"And also the Sphere Mother... Zavul."
Da Gu walked on the platform outside the base, looking up at the starry sky and then at the restless sea. He took out the half-gold, half-black Divine Power staff from his bosom, his eyes reflecting deep thought.
"Lost again?"
A gentle laugh echoed as Sun Wukong walked up beside Da Gu, leaning his arms on the railing. His eyes were as bright as stars, seeming as if they would never know sorrow. Others only needed to glimpse at their glow to feel an incredible sense of ease within.
"Mr. Wukong."
"Oh, what is this 'mister' business? It feels so distant. Just call me Wukong," Sun Wukong waved his hand dismissively, slightly teasing, "We're quite familiar with each other; no need to be so formal."
"Alright, Wukong." The heaviness on Da Gu's face lessened a bit, "After defeating the final enemy, will you all leave this space-time?"
"Yes." Sun Wukong nodded.
"Then will you face enemies even more dangerous than Gatanothor and the Sphere Mother?" Da Gu asked.
"Yes."
"That sounds tougher than what I face."
"Indeed, most people might forget who they truly are during long cycles, driven solely by the pursuit of power."
"Is that so?"
Da Gu remained silent for a while, not pursuing the topic further. After all, to experience multiple worlds and encounter various dangers was not a simple matter.
Facing danger with a smile—
It's easy to say, but to actually do it, even he needs to muster courage, let alone others.
But in the end, one must make the choices they want to make.
"Enough about that, you seem afraid." Sun Wukong directly hit the core of Da Gu's heart, "The existence of Gatanothor makes you feel you have no chance of winning."
"Maybe." Da Gu clenched the Divine Power staff tighter before finally putting it back into his jacket, "It's the dark ruler. In my memory, it's inherently stronger than Tiga, neither dark Tiga nor light Tiga can match it."
"However, I shall go."
This time, he harnessed both light and dark powers, uniting them into the truth of the world, destined to dispel the deepest chaos.
"Seems I'm no longer needed to console you." Sun Wukong smiled and turned to leave.
"Thank you, Wukong." Da Gu said.
"What's to thank for? I just came by to enjoy the evening breeze." Sun Wukong waved as he entered the base and encountered Zhan Lan on the way.
"Sun, you seem leisurely."
"Of course." Sun Wukong scrutinized Zhan Lan for a moment, "You've made considerable progress in your medical skills, and more importantly, you've learned something new from that Mirror Princess."
"You noticed," Zhan Lan stuck out her tongue a little, explaining, "Alena's mirror control can indeed be learned, but it requires a talent for spiritual power, which I happen to have. Besides, strengthening the Mind Network ability makes learning much more fluid, so naturally, I had to learn it."
"Soon, everyone will only need to carry a mirror to make video calls or even transfer objects!"
"Of course, with my current ability, transferring objects cannot be too large, no bigger than a basketball, and not too heavy, no more than a ton."
Nevertheless, Zhan Lan subtly exuded a sense of pride.
For this Mirror Skill is a growth-type ability!
As long as her spiritual power increases, she can keep escalating the weight and volume of transported objects, even using it as a storage space.
She could even store living beings!
Just like how Alena once sealed Ultraman, sealing living beings inside.
"Not bad," Sun Wukong gave a thumbs-up, "The potential of this ability is vast. If you can comprehend its essence, your future prospects are limitless."
My Virtual Library Empire (M|V|LE1MPYR) thanks you for reading at the source.
"Sun, could you give me some guidance?" Zhan Lan was not as sensitive as Chu Xuan but, being a novelist herself and possessing basic logical thinking, she understood Sun Wukong's identity was not simple.
"Aren't you a novelist?"
"I am."
"Then you should have some imagination, right? Coupled with your experiences in the Main God space, in the future perhaps you can create small worlds within every mirror," Sun Wukong stated succinctly, "Mirrors can reflect all things."
"Is that so?" Zhan Lan was amazed by the vast prospects of this ability but also doubted whether she could achieve it, suddenly feeling a bit anxious.
"Don't doubt yourself. Since you've mastered the Mirror Skill, it proves you have that potential." Sun Wukong encouraged, "Work hard to improve yourself."
"Yes!" Zhan Lan nodded, realizing Sun Wukong had already moved behind her. She hastily turned and shouted, "Thank you, Great Saint!"
"Shh~"
Sun Wukong turned his head, whispering, "Keep it down, don't let others hear."
Zhan Lan waved her hand, "Got it!"
Thirty-three sun and moon cycles passed.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had elapsed.
Chu Xuan finally emerged from the research lab with his research outcome—the Ultraman Armor.
In appearance, it resembled Ultraman from Tsuburaya Productions' special effects series "," except the outer layer wasn't a suit but a solid armor, brimming with a modern technological vibe.
"How do you wear this?" Xin Cheng asked.
Chu Xuan pressed the timer on the chest of the armor, and the front opened, revealing an interior space shaped just right for a human.
"Can I get in?" Xin Cheng couldn't resist trying it out.
"You can."
Xin Cheng immediately stepped inside, and the part that had opened fit into place perfectly.
Afterwards, Xin Cheng felt like he had put on a specially designed outfit, with no weight at all. Even his vision remained unobstructed, feeling as if he were wearing a pair of glasses that made everything clearer.
Da Gu: "Xin Cheng, how do you feel?"
Zongfang: "Is it heavy?"
Lina: "Is your breathing smooth?"
Hori: "Is there a sci-fi display screen inside?"
Nori: "It looks cool, I wonder what my Ultraman armor will look like when it's made."
Kujima Megumi: "Xin Cheng, are you alright in there?"
To the team members' queries and concerns, Xin Cheng laughed heartily and said, "I've never felt better. This armor is truly impressive; I feel like I'm wearing something very light and breathable."
"Moreover, I feel as if some knowledge about how to use the armor's capabilities has been transmitted into my brain... like telepathy?"
Chu Xuan said, "You could say that. Once the armor is worn, it connects to the nerves on your skin, essentially adding a layer of skin that can transmit electromagnetic wave memory to your brain to provide operational instructions..."
"Originally, I intended to design an intelligent AI, but then I felt if I did that, there'd be no need to design it as armor. Plus, if AI malfunctioned under strong electromagnetic interference, it could easily lead to the armor going out of control."
"So, I omitted that step."
