Chapter 165 Human Weapons? The Shadow of Despair!
Gu Nan did not take a panoramic photo of the "Prometheus" here.
Instead, it uses countless close-up shots to frame each component of Prometheus alongside lunar craters.
The sheer size and contrast create a powerful sense of scale, amplifying the audience's perception of its immense size.
The steel behemoth named "Prometheus" still exudes a suffocating sense of oppression on the screen.
Old Tang swallowed hard; the question marks and exclamation marks in the live chat were still scrolling wildly.
Is it really a power that humans can wield to instantly kill a monster that even Dyna couldn't break through?
Before the audience could think about it, the film's camera shifted to a heavily fortified island—Crimos Island.
As the camera pans in, the entire Super Victory Team arrives for a visit aboard their fighter jets.
The narration and visual details provided timely background information.
First, there's a historical flashback, interspersed with scenes from Ultraman Tiga.
This is where world leaders held a world peace conference and facilitated the establishment of TPC. The story of Ultraman Tiga also took place here.
Even the private jet that Asuka and the others rode on was the same model that Director Sawai used back then.
But at this moment, the direction of the comments changed.
【Dreaming Back to Ultraman Tiga】
Wait a minute, something's not right about this island! Wasn't this supposed to be a peace conference? Why is it all heavy artillery and heavy weaponry?
Good heavens, the level of security here is almost comparable to a military fortress!
By the way, are all those veteran characters from Ultraman Tiga no longer around?
Has TPC changed its gender? What happened to the peace organization it was supposed to be?
Old Tang watched the comical way the bird on the screen disregarded the strict rules. Although it eased the tension a little, he still understood the core of the plot.
"Brothers, the new era has changed. Faced with unknown challenges, humanity has begun to pursue armed forces."
"Crimos Island has also begun to arm itself accordingly, possibly to prevent a repeat of the Sleeping Beauty incident, similar to the one involving Tiga."
In the scene, the Super GUTS team members are riding an elevator that goes straight down.
"Mom, can you see me?"
The bird even waved playfully at the surveillance camera.
The group then ventured deep underground into the base.
Below that are countless production lines, working overtime to produce countless pieces of military equipment.
Tanks, missiles, fighter jets...
The team members were amazed by the sheer size of the base, but Captain Gosuke Kibi had a furrowed brow.
He knew that weapons were necessary, but he was uneasy about the TPC's continued expansion of its military in the name of peace.
Most importantly, they were completely unaware of this change before the Prometheus arrived!
There's absolutely no need to hide this from your own people.
Just like the bird's comment:
"The problem is that they built such a huge, monstrous warship without explaining it to us. It's just too much!"
Moreover, the fact that the former site of the peace conference has been transformed into a gun and cannon base is ironic in itself.
The elevator doors opened, and they were greeted by TPC's hawkish strategist, Gondo, and Dr. Kisaragi, the creator of Prometheus.
With Dr. Kisaragi and Gondo's triumphant introduction, the warship that brought the mythical flame was once again displayed before everyone's eyes.
"You all should already be aware of the destructive power of the new Max Cannon!"
"But the battle on the lunar surface was just a rehearsal! You can think of it that way..."
Then she said something that stunned everyone on the spot.
"It can not only destroy monsters with a single shot, but if the energy is set to maximum output, it can completely destroy objects the size of asteroids!"
Dr. Kisaragi proudly raised her chin. "It has long surpassed Ultraman Dyna!"
Upon hearing this, Asuka immediately objected, retorting that a cold, mechanical device could never defeat Dyna.
The bird is in a panic! The bird is in a panic!
[Nonsense, how could he not be anxious when someone tells him to his face that the machine is better than him?]
[But that firepower is really fierce, Asuka, take it easy.]
Captain Hibiki stopped the impulsive Asuka. He looked sharply at the professor and raised his most pressing concern.
Such a powerful weapon, if it goes out of control, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Human history is full of lessons about destruction caused by the unchecked abuse of power.
"True strength should include human courage, faith, and hope for the future, rather than relying on cold weapons with unknown risks."
Captain Hibiki's words carried weight.
This is the awareness that the defense force should have.
An excessive pursuit of power will ultimately backfire.
However, Dr. Kisaragi just smiled wickedly and even mocked Dyna's arduous battle on the moon, believing that it was an unstable force, while her fully intelligent AI would never make a mistake.
Next, the doctor demonstrated a capsule, claiming that Prometheus could read the brainwaves and combat data of elite team members and perfectly reproduce combat actions.
Now, Asuka was completely enraged.
Ignoring the silence of the crowd, he lay down directly into the glass capsule, wanting to personally experience this so-called intelligent system.
[Oh no, this woman has a wicked look on her face, and that idiot Asuka has fallen for her trap!]
Liang's expression clearly said, "You idiot."
[Sigh, why did I have to choose Dyna's human form? It feels like a plot twist!]
[Actually, it wasn't exactly a plot-driven death. From the beginning, they were deliberately guiding Asuka, this brainless character who gets angry easily, and if they were targeting him specifically, it would have been easy to trick him into coming here.]
[Collecting data on flying birds, are you sure you won't crash during battle? Hahaha]
I feel like whether Asuka lies down or any other team member lies down, they should be able to replicate Dyna's stats.
[The wicked woman's reverse psychology worked wonders!]
As the doctor pressed the button, Asuka's consciousness entered the simulated world.
Just a few seconds ago, he was still immersed in the flashback of his transformation into Dyna beating up monsters, his blood boiling with excitement.
But the next second, the scene changed abruptly!
The massive Prometheus warship hovered in mid-air, its black cannons aimed at Dyna.
boom--!
The terrifying Neomax cannon blasted straight at them.
Dyna hastily responded with the Solgent beam.
However, to everyone's surprise...
From Asuka's desperate perspective, Ultraman Dyna's Solgent Beam didn't even last a second...
The giant of light was instantly blasted into particles!
"ah--!"
The bird awoke with a scream from its sickbed, covered in sweat and trembling all over.
[Oh no! Seven lost to Zedi! Why would Asuka have such a dream!?]
Wow, is this light that strong?!
[I think this is just psychological suggestion! If it really came down to a fight, he might not be able to control Dyna.]
[Damn it, how did such a powerful weapon end up in the enemy's hands again?]
Old Tang gasped, feeling a chill run down his spine: "Holy crap! This system is basically designed to mess with your mentality!"
"To literally blast Ultraman to pieces in one's mind, wouldn't that cause extreme PTSD?!"
Old Tang now roughly realizes what this villain wants to do.
Back to the plot.
Beside the hospital bed, Mai, who is usually sweet and friendly, was holding a water glass and angrily scolding the system for being a defective product. She said that Asuka had fainted on the spot and the captain was still arguing with the doctor about it.
The bird took the water glass, as if from another world.
Just then, a piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the entire island of Cremos!
"Unidentified flying object attack! Defense line breached!"
Then, the camera shifts to the outside world.
The alien disk unleashed a barrage of firepower, and the unmanned defense systems on the island, blown into the sky, crumbled instantly in the face of a real enemy, as if they were made of paper.
In the command center, Captain Hibi made a decisive decision, no longer arguing with Dr. Kisaragi, and directly requested Staff Officer Gondo to deploy the only remaining fighter jet on the island—the Victory Eagle.
At this moment, everyone in the battle log also confirmed the enemy's identity.
"This disk has been confirmed to exhibit the same biological responses as the monsters on the moon!"
"So it's in cahoots with that monster!"
"It's more likely that the monster was just testing the waters!"
The exciting, exclusive battle background music suddenly started playing.
It's worth mentioning that the music here is a variation of the classic "Uncle Wang's Song".
Old Tang and the viewers in the live stream instantly perked up.
"Here they come! Super GUTS is about to show off their skills!"
However, his cool demeanor lasted only three seconds.
Just as the Victory Eagle took off to prepare for its separate combat mission, a piercing alarm suddenly blared, the entire operating system malfunctioned, the fighter jet went out of control, and plunged into the sea amidst black smoke!
The music stopped abruptly.
【? ? ? ? 】
[Holy crap! What's going on?]
[Dying before even achieving its goal? This mech has definitely been tampered with!]
Staff Officer Gondo was also a bit bewildered in the command room.
He didn't even have time for impotent rage.
At this moment, Dr. Kisaragi took advantage of the chaos to quietly leave, a chillingly eerie smile on her lips as she departed.
The camera cuts to the bombing zone outside.
Asuka and Mai are struggling to avoid the barrage of gunfire.
Seeing the dangerous situation, Asuka shouted for Mai to hurry to the underground shelter.
"I'm not leaving! Leave this to me, I'm a member of the Super GUTS team too!" Mai stubbornly retorted, her eyes filled with tears, but her gaze was exceptionally firm. "I'm your senior, I won't hold you back!"
A wave of emotion swept through the live chat.
Mai has grown up! She's no longer that little girl who only knew how to type on a keyboard.
This is the spirit of Super GUTS – not a single one of them is a coward!
Asuka watched Mai's departing figure, gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran towards the reef not far away.
He raised his flash sword, about to press it down.
But at that very moment, the terrifying memory of Dyna being blasted to pieces by NeoMax suddenly surged into my mind!
His hand froze in mid-air, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
But he is, after all, a bird.
"That's not true... The invincible Dyna can't lose!"
A dazzling light shot into the sky, and Ultraman Dyna crashed to the ground, facing the alien disk!
【Dynamic!】
[Mai: Why did Dyna appear behind the rock where the bird was hiding? Why? It's so hard to guess!]
By the way, Dyna's battle cry seems to have changed a bit too.
Just as Dyna was about to show off his skills, a violent tremor suddenly came from underground on Cremos Island.
The colossal Prometheus warship burst forth from the ground!
In the command room, Staff Officer Gondo was sweating profusely because he had not issued any attack orders and had not even finished entering the combat data.
The staff reported the alarm in a panic: "Staff! The warship is out of control! Dr. Kisaragi is also missing!"
The next second, the big screen flickered, and the missing Dr. Kisaragi appeared on the screen.
But her expression was stiff and sinister at this moment, and she had completely changed.
"Foolish Earthlings... just watch your symbol be destroyed." Dr. Kisaragi's voice was icy. "We will use the weapons you humans made to defeat your guardian spirit and destroy your civilization!"
They are the Monera aliens!
As the Monera aliens announced this, a blue light descended from the disc in the sky, enveloping the enormous Prometheus.
Amidst the stunned gazes of countless viewers, the spaceship, representing the pinnacle of human industrial achievement, began to deform amidst a piercing metallic scraping sound!
The gun barrel flipped over, and the armor was reassembled.
The CG here is extremely realistic, fully demonstrating the amazing technical skills of Industrial Light & Magic and Weta Digital!
This is the power of the film industry!
In just over ten seconds, a super robot with a silver metallic sheen and a ferocious face crashed heavily onto the ground!
Computer Demon God - Desfasa!
Holy crap! The warship has turned into a Transformer?!
[Using humanity's most powerful weapon to fight Ultraman, these aliens are not only killing people, they're also trying to destroy their spirit!]
[The background music paired with this transformation scene perfectly creates a terrifying atmosphere and a sense of oppression!]
How did I end up with such a powerful father figure?!
Sigh, I've learned my lesson. Borrowed power is never truly yours; you must learn and develop it yourself step by step to make it your own.
[By the way, his body looks like a mechanical version of Sphia.]
"Dyna, danger!"
At this point, Lao Tang had a pretty good idea of what was going to happen next.
The battle erupted instantly!
At this moment, when Dyna and Desfaza appeared in the same frame, the audience was shocked to discover that the two were not even in the same league in terms of height!
Desfasa is a full 100 meters tall!
Dyna's height only reached his waist.
This enormous mechanical suit is also made possible by a large number of mechanical transmission devices, allowing it to move as flexibly as a robot!
After all, in the original work, the massive Prometheus could completely obscure Dyna with its shadow alone; the two are not even in the same league. There's no reason why it would shrink by more than half after transforming from a spaceship into a robot.
Therefore, Gu Nan directly used the actual size of the Prometheus battleship to reshape the Desfasa's super mechanical suit.
This is the power of abundant funds!
Shiny Dyna roared and charged forward, delivering a powerful punch to Desfaza's waist.
However, a dull metallic clang was heard, and the robot remained motionless, blasting Dyna away with a backhand shot.
Their strength and defense were completely overwhelmed!
Dyna immediately switched to the blue Miracle form while rolling!
After all, their sizes are not even in the same league, so they would have no chance in close combat!
Therefore, Dyna chose to change his tactics.
He transformed into a blue afterimage, skillfully dodging the dense artillery fire using Miracle Roll, and instantly appeared behind Desfasa.
Then, Dyna raised his hands high, and a dazzling lens of light condensed in front of his chest.
A glorious trial!
The terrifying technique, which amplifies sunlight by hundreds of thousands of times, was transformed into a blinding beam of light and slammed into Desfasa!
However, a desperate scene unfolded.
Desfasa didn't even try to dodge; the mechanical arm gently lifted, and a transparent barrier instantly unfolded.
The immensely powerful radiant judgment struck the barrier, but it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, without causing the slightest ripple!
[666, and there's even a shield dog!]
[It's over, we've been completely crushed by the AI's incredible power!]
[Quickly! Dyna, bring out your invincible Liporum!]
However, to everyone's surprise,
Before Dyna could react, Desfaza suddenly turned around, and its mechanical arm shot out like a venomous snake, precisely clamping down on Dyna, who was rolling at high speed, in mid-air!
"It has read Asuka's memories! All of Dyna's moves and habits are within its AI calculations!"
Old Tang suddenly realized.
"So, does this mean Dyna won't even have the chance to unleash the Lipólyum beam?"
At this moment, Dyna on the screen was being gripped tightly, struggling in agony.
Meanwhile, the massive armor plating on Desfasa's chest was slowly opening.
A ghostly blue light began to converge wildly at the muzzle of the cannon.
That's the Neomax Cannon, capable of shattering even asteroids in a single blow!
In the moment of crisis, Dyna instantly switched back to Shiny mode, crossed his arms, and prepared to release the Solgent Ray at all costs.
But, in that very instant he raised his hand...
Before Asuka's eyes, the terrifying image of himself being blasted into dust by this cannon in the simulation chamber flashed again.
PTSD erupted at this most critical moment.
Dyna paused.
Even a mere second can be fatal in a battle of this magnitude.
boom--!!!
An indescribably terrifying beam of energy, carrying an aura of annihilation, slammed into Dyna's face without reservation!
The entire island of Cremos trembled violently under this force, leaving only a blinding light.
Viewers outside the screen could only see a screen full of white light.
A massive shockwave swept out, knocking over and stunning everyone on and off the island, including Mai, who had come to provide support with a gun.
As the light faded, thick black smoke rose into the air.
In the center of the once flat island, a huge, bottomless meteorite crater suddenly appeared.
The battlefield was eerily quiet.
Dyna was gone, leaving only Desfasa's cold, mechanical body standing proudly amidst the ruins.
"Dyna... has been destroyed."
The Monera aliens' cold, electronic voices echoed across the island.
The entire live stream room was deathly silent.
Not a single comment appeared.
Until the movie footage showed Miyako's heart-wrenching cries echoing from the depths of the ruins, reverberating across the desolate island.
"Dyna—!!!!!"
