Chapter 740 Unexpected Guest
"Mr. Zheng Zha, are you okay?"
At Victory Team headquarters, Da Gu took a break at night and went to Zheng Zha's room, showing concern for his condition, "From the previous fight, Dyna seemed incredibly strong in that form, but it appeared to be a great burden on you?"
Dyna's form, with the starry sky shining from its chest, is exceptionally powerful, its strength exploding geometrically, which both shocked and worried Da Gu.
That is definitely not a normal form transformation.
At least from his perspective, in that form, Dyna's operational time became extremely short, almost similar to Tiga before its transformation.
"I've unlocked the gene lock." Zheng Zha was quite touched that Da Gu came to check on him.
"Gene lock, huh." Da Gu's expression turned serious, "That certainly can unleash more potential, but isn't it supposed to have considerable side effects? It's only supposed to be activated at crucial moments."
"Actually, you can gradually adapt until you can keep it constantly unlocked, truly converting the unleashed potential into personal power," Zheng Zha said, "It's not an explosive force; it's just that due to Victory Team's technology being not sufficiently accommodating for self-repair, in Chu Xuan's introduction, the gene lock appears as a temporary explosive force."
"I see." Da Gu rubbed his head and laughed heartily, "It seems like your adventures across different dimensions are quite interesting."
"Not interesting, sometimes... Wait, how do you know?" Zheng Zha was shocked.
"Mr. Wukong told me about it, said you guys shuttle across different spaces, experience, adventure, complete tasks and so on." Da Gu laughed, "Also, being Ultraman Tiga, it's like I suddenly recognize you all, rather than always knowing you."
"I see."
Zheng Zha was enlightened but pondered: Could suggesting their real identity subtly without directly telling outsiders prevent any punishment from Main God for reincarnators?
Main God might really just be a supercomputer.
"By the way, wouldn't unlocking the gene lock as Dyna cause side effects?" Da Gu was concerned about this, "Our opponents are getting stronger and I also want more powerful strength."
"There are still side effects, but as long as it's not unlocked for too long, I think you can manage, since we have light within us, so recovery is faster, and we can adapt to the gene lock's power more quickly."
Zheng Zha recalled his own situation at the time, speaking of his insight, "Unlocking the gene lock in Ultraman mode feels like the radiance on the body flares up."
"This might be a bit difficult to understand, let me clarify, the radiance gathers together, just like the sun... Yes, the sun, a star."
"At the time, I seemed to see an imaginary sun."
"When touching that sun, I guessed Dyna could unleash even greater power."
Finally, Da Gu left Zheng Zha's room deep in thought.
Star?
A qualitative change from light gathering into one mass?
"Da Gu?" This chapter's true source is My Virtual Library Empire (M|V|LEMP-YR).
The oriole-like voice startled Da Gu who was a bit lost in the corridor, it was Lina.
"Lina, why haven't you rested?" Seeing Lina dressed for sleep, Da Gu awkwardly smiled.
"I just took a bath and went out to make myself a drink." Lina raised the hot milk in her hand, "But you, still wearing your team uniform late at night... Is it your turn to patrol today?"
"Uh, I was going to the bathroom and didn't want to feel cold, so I put on the team uniform." Da Gu made a lame excuse.
"Really? I haven't seen you afraid of cold before." Lina muttered and opened her room door, then inexplicably said to Da Gu: "Want to come in for some milk?"
"Huh?"
Da Gu's brain was at somewhat—
What did Lina mean by this? Was she inviting him in?
As a gentleman, he shouldn't refuse a lady's invitation, but isn't this inappropriate?
Bang!
But before Da Gu could react, Lina already "bang" shut the door, leaving Da Gu messy outside: "Maybe Lina was just talking nonsense, and I was overthinking it."
Inside the room, Lina was drinking her milk gloomily, cursing silently, "What am I saying earlier, and also—"
She walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out a stack of photos.
There were photos of Da Gu, and Tiga.
Placing them side by side on the desk, she meticulously compared their identical poses.
"From the initial three identical poses to now over twenty, plus Da Gu always disappearing whenever Tiga appears..."
"Da Gu is Tiga!"
Lina came to her own conclusion, "Why conceal it from everyone? Why bear it alone? Why face it alone?"
"Also, who is that female giant?"
The second day.
A ray of morning light broke the silence of the night.
On the shimmering sea surface, the Victory Team's base rose as usual from the seabed, the foundational personnel began cleaning, only some unexpected guests arrived at the base.
They learned about the Ultraman armor.
Thus, internationally, there is hope for Chu Xuan to publicize the data of the Ultraman armor, so that all countries can possess the Ultraman armor to deal with the increasingly growing Sphere.
"The data can be provided to you, but I need corresponding compensation, specifically Sparcium material and rare metals, which are both crucial for manufacturing Ultraman armor."
Chu Xuan did not care about the armor's data, after all, without materials, even if the blueprints were generously made public on the internet for everyone to view and download, not many could produce them.
"At Earth's critical juncture, why need to be so meticulous about gains?" The American TPC representative frowned, "Such technology should be shared with us, it is originally a joint property of TPC."
"Sorry, it really isn't." Chu Xuan didn't want to waste time, pointing at his head, "This is something I thought up, although not patented, it belongs solely to me."
Zejing advised, "Mr. Aimeric, please don't get agitated, I think Chu Xuan's right, this is his invention, you can't directly seize it, purchasing with corresponding raw materials is a good choice."
"Earth is currently facing imminent danger, why need to be so meticulous about gains?" Aimeric suppressed the fire in his voice, calmly, asked discontentedly.
"Chu Xuan just wants to first obtain more raw materials, disguised as the elite of the Victory Team present."
Sun Wukong knew Chu Xuan disliked such meticulous negotiations, so he spoke up for him, saying, "In Earth's critical survival moment, we indeed will not engage in meaningless bargaining over this bit of profit, it's just that we here are the entire TPC's base camp, headquarters, shouldn't the elites here first get equipped to directly face the monsters, Sphere or Sphere Synthetic Beasts?"
Aimeric thought about it, nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but, the energy minerals we transported back from America, known as Sparcium material named by Chu Xuan, the storage is not much, plus now Earth is sealed off by Sphere barriers, the source of minerals is directly cut off, use one bit, lose one bit."
"In the future even after creating the Ultraman armor, it will also need Sparcium material for maintenance, if a large portion is given to you, how could we maintain it?"
"That's impossible!"
Sun Wukong smiled: "In this case, your resources should be sent here to the headquarters, let the elites use them first, since we are to eliminate globally most strong and difficult monsters, we all are elite, are the best warriors."
Aimeric was displeased: "You mean to say, you are all the strongest?"
"Uh-huh."
With this, the other members of the Victory Team also nodded, expressing agreement.
They are the strongest!
"Hmph, honestly, if it weren't for this base being situated near the Pacific and close to Japan, most personnel capable of becoming elites would predominantly be Western face types."
"Ahem, Mr. Aimeric, you seem to have a bias against other ethnic groups." Zejing said with displeasure.
"Sorry, I spoke too harshly." Realizing he misspoke, Aimeric immediately apologized, but still said, "I am not biased against ethnic groups, just stating a fact, in terms of physique and muscle, Westerners are indeed stronger; while Yellow people are more agile and have better endurance."
At this time, the TPC representative from China spoke, saying: "Since that's the case, then let us see your excellence, so perhaps it can dispel any doubts among us."
Kujima Megumi smiled: "That's a good idea."
Clearly, the representative from China was siding with the Victory Team's headquarters.
The reason is simple.
Because among the elite of the Victory Team, Sun Wukong, Zheng Zha, Chu Xuan, Zhao Yingkong, Wu Ye, five in total, equating to half of the elite are Chinese.
Plus, the Ultraman armor is also designed by Chu Xuan, a Chinese.
Both emotionally and rationally, this representative shouldn't be making things difficult.
But now he is also one of the international representatives, so to avoid being targeted by other countries, he can only use the tactic of surrounding Wei to rescue Zhao, finding ways from the side to help Chu Xuan achieve his desired goals.
Chu Xuan naturally saw through the other's thoughts and nodded secretly.
Then, under Kujima Megumi's guidance, the group arrived at the open training field, letting the team members demonstrate their strength.
After a round of tests, the TPC representatives from various countries hardly needed to look at the recorded numerical results to already recognize the strength of the elites.
Various sports tests had already broken all Olympic records!
This time, Aimeric had no reason at all, also truly admired these elites of the Victory Team, and asked: "Do you have any special training methods?"
"No, just engaged in the most scientific and rigorous training." Zejing smiled, handing out identical contracts to various country representatives, and left a copy for himself.
Indeed, as the TPC representative for Japan, he naturally needed to sign as well.
