Suddenly, Shen Yong changed the subject and smiled at everyone.
"Yes, humans and Ultraman can be friends."
Captain Sakami spoke quietly, then recalled his time as an astronaut on the International Space Station…
It was a memory he would never forget, a secret he kept deep in his heart.
Chapter 95: Ultraman's conversation with Mefilas.
Next, governments around the world began preparing for transactions and negotiations with the Mefilas aliens.
Meanwhile, the Cottage team is focusing on researching and manufacturing the Magus power system.
Whether as a trump card to balance the situation on Earth, or as a weapon to break out of the universe and resist alien invasion in the future, the Magus Propulsion System is the only technology that humanity can currently offer.
Although the Magus power system is nowhere near as good as Beta technology, what more could you ask for now?
Therefore, in order to seize the time to study the Magus propulsion system, a large number of scientists from the Science Team devoted themselves to the laboratory. Among these scientists were some who were secretly sent by other countries to support the Science Team.
After all, the other governments aren't fools. They want the Beta device, and they want the Magus power system. And because of Li Xiang, they tacitly sent scientists to study it together. Anyway, the scientists are their own, and they can easily master the technology by bringing the experimental data back.
Moreover, these countries did not fully trust Mefilas, after all, they were all aware of the aliens' actions.
However, since humans currently lack the power to take over, they can only compromise and try their best to strengthen themselves.
Li Xiang, who should have been a frontline worker, was also dragged in to help because of the needs of the experiment.
After a few days, it had turned into smoky eye makeup.
Because he was busy with political affairs, Po Shui only saw Li Xiang again today.
Li Xiang also managed to escape from the laboratory.
"Xiang... what's going on with this?"
"do not talk."
Li Xiang held a cup of extra-strong coffee, sipping it slowly, hoping to dispel his fatigue with the bitterness.
"Those scientists... they practically dragged me in to cooperate with their experiments. I'm a frontline combatant! I only learned a little physics back in university, and my understanding of the MAXUS system was limited to repairing fighter jets!"
"They're not human! They've turned me, a combatant, into a researcher. Captain Sakakizumi, my head is full of jumbled physics formulas. I feel like I'm turning into a negative energy monster."
Captain Sakami simply smiled and shook his head.
"Then how did you escape? I know those scientists; they practically want to die in their labs. You're quite capable for getting out."
"Well, it's all about Mefilas. Kaminari is going to make contact with Mefilas, so I'm going to keep an eye on things."
Shosui nodded.
This was the original plan.
The Science Patrol focused on developing the Magus Power System, while Ultraman sought to make contact with the Mefilas aliens, hoping to uncover their true purpose.
If Mefilas harbors ill intentions, Li Xiang can defeat him in advance.
As for how Li Xiang will defeat an alien?
Shokumi was just smiling.
As for the Beta device... whether it's possible or not, that's a matter for humanity to consider.
This is similar to the Cold War. Military preparedness will not stop just because the mastermind behind it, Mefilas, is gone; it will continue indefinitely.
Since the Beta device has already appeared, regardless of whether humans can obtain it, Earthlings will prepare for military action, both to protect themselves and to guard against extraterrestrials.
Since Ultraman is not currently at odds with humanity, what about the other aliens?
Ultraman possesses the Beta Device, Mefilas possesses it, and even Zarab could grow to a gigantic size last time. Does this mean that the Beta Device itself is a technology mastered by a large number of extraterrestrial civilizations?
If that's the case, why don't humans study it?
If humanity doesn't conduct research, what should we do if aliens invade Earth?
Thus, based on this conjecture, military preparations began.
In fact, military competition began as soon as humanity acquired intelligence and became a civilization, and it has never stopped.
The same applies to the entire universe.
For example, how did the Star of Light become the victor in the great war?
Therefore, the Magus propulsion system was actually designed to balance humanity's dependence on a single technology, help humanity master extraterrestrial travel technology, and alleviate internal conflicts.
After all, the Magus power system can be thoroughly understood by humans, but the Beta device... well, let's wait for decades or even centuries.
As for Po Shui, he didn't say much about Li Xiang's plan to go find Mefilas.
He trusted Li Xiang, this young man, very much.
"Alright, that's settled then. I have to go now. Kaminari is only going to find Mefilas now to buy us time, and we can't delay any longer..."
Li Xiang finished his coffee in one gulp.
"By the way, Captain Sakami, I'll leave the Flying Swallow behind. I have a feeling that Mefilas's purpose is definitely not simple. If any problems arise, I hope the Flying Swallow can help you."
"Thank you very much, and please be careful."
The two greeted each other, and then Li Xiang left.
Everyone on the Cottage team is very busy right now.
Meanwhile, Shen Yong had already met Mefilas in a park.
Kamen Rider sat on the swing, while Mefilas sat casually on a blue railing.
And so, the conversation between the two aliens began.
Kaminari first looked at the monitor on his chest and found that Mefilas had somehow damaged it.
But immediately, Kaminari's eyes lit up, and he ignored the miniature monitor on his chest.
"Was it you who awakened the biological weapons abandoned on Earth?"
"Ultimately, the root cause of the awakening of the Calamity Beast is humanity's destruction of the environment," Mefilas replied to Shen Yong with an elegant demeanor and extremely gentlemanly tone.
"This is nature's anger, this is karma, Ultraman."
"Unlike Earthlings, we are gentlemen. We have always adhered to an interstellar principle, which is that our interference with other planets is limited to the level of biological utilization. Early life forms were only used for power reconnaissance and tactical purposes. The evolved transparent monsters utilize electricity, while the subterranean monsters are strategic life forms that ingest complex nuclear materials for local suppression."
"They are excellent bait to lure you out."
Kaminari listened quietly to Mefilas without interrupting, his eyes darting around as if deep in thought…
“I don’t want to complicate things too much, so I’m using all the available resources here, as well as Zarab, to make them fight against you—my goal is to make humanity truly experience the helplessness of violence solving nothing, and the despair of being unable to win even with the intelligence of the Beta Device.”
"You made humanity understand the dependence on the strong, and that humanity can only unconditionally obey aliens... You actually helped me instill this concept in humanity. After all, you were the first successful case of integration with humanity, which was also confirmed by my experiments. So I also know that humanity is an effective biological resource for creating super weapons."
"You deserve a lot of credit for this."
Mefilas said a lot.
The specific explanation is that Ultraman successfully merged with humans, making Mefilas realize that Earthlings are perfect biological weapons. Therefore, Mefilas now wants to rule the Earth, enslave humans, and turn them into his own biological weapons.
And now, Ultraman has finally spoken.
“Mefilas, your idea is flawless... You know I can't interfere with humanity, so you chose to do this, didn't you?”
Ultraman is not allowed to interfere with Earth's choices because of the laws of his own planet.
Humanity's choice to trade with Mefilas and obtain the Beta Device was their own decision, and Ultraman should not interfere.
“But,” Ultraman continued.
"Mefilas, your plan has fallen through, hasn't it?"
"Yes, my plan went wrong... The Science Patrol... and the weapon that defeated King Elek, were outside my plan. That technology, you must have provided it."
Now, Mefilas's once gentlemanly face darkened, because he guessed that Ultraman might be helping humanity, so it was no longer possible for him to win Ultraman over.
However, Ultraman's next words made Mefilas look even worse.
"No, I have not provided any technology to humanity; that technology belongs to humanity itself."
Chapter 96 and my victory, let's talk about the Hyper Gun.
"Wasn't it you who gave it to the Earthlings...? Then I definitely miscalculated."
Mefilas shook his head helplessly, then looked at Ultraman and continued speaking.
"But it doesn't matter, as long as we get rid of the Kurt team."
"What are you going to do?" Ultraman turned to look at Mefilas in an instant.
Mefilas felt a chill run down his spine, as if someone was about to launch a sneak attack.
Mefilas: This isn't right, is it?
"What I'm going to do is obvious, isn't it?"
"The existence of the Science Patrol has successfully freed humanity from over-reliance on the Beta Device. In fact, because the Science Patrol successfully defeated Eleking, humanity is now full of confidence. This is not what I need. What I need is for humanity to obey me, not this kind of arrogance."
"So, as long as we defeat the Science Patrol, which humanity is so proud of, then humanity will know the strength of aliens and its own weakness, and the plan will be on track, right?"
Ultraman wanted to speak, but Mefilas interrupted him and continued.
"Shh, I know you'll definitely step in to help humanity, but it's okay... 'Better safe than sorry' is a favorite Earth idiom of mine, so I sincerely hope you'll protect humanity and the Science Patrol, and then be defeated by me. Only in this way will humanity clearly understand that their Science Patrol and the Ultraman who has always protected them have been defeated, despair will engulf the Earth, and humanity will have no choice but to obey."
Mefilas finished speaking and then pointed to the sky.
Shen Yong looked up and saw a huge warship appear in outer space.
"Those are Baltan aliens."
Faced with Shen Yong's doubts, Mefilas offered a thoughtful explanation.
"The Baltans' home planet was destroyed, so I found a group of refugees... about a dozen or so. I hope they will come and help me attack Earth. I promised them that I would give them Earth and give me humanity."
"However, don't underestimate the Baltans. Their home planet was destroyed because of a war they started themselves, so Earth is no match for their strength right now."
"Ultraman, you'll fight, right? Even if you can't defeat these Baltan aliens, you'll still fight, right?"
Meanwhile, the warships in the sky had begun to gather their power, preparing to fire their cannons at the ground.
