Ultraman: A good pilot doesn't choose his own Ultraman.

55. Faust: Trading brains for strength

"What? These tiny insects? How is that possible?"

Faust casually deflected the laser shot from Flying Swallow No. 1, then roared as he ran, wanting to deal with this annoying thing first.

No matter how humanity breaks through the dark realm, just wipe them out immediately.

"Daigo, watch out, I'm about to take off!"

As Faust charged straight toward them, his demonic face becoming increasingly conspicuous, Shinjo cried out in alarm and shook the control stick to quickly ascend.

Unlike monsters that lack intelligence, this dark giant seems to know to eliminate unstable factors first.

Fighting this kind of guy is such a hassle!

"Understood, the new momentum has been activated."

Daigo pressed a button in the back seat, and the speed of the Flying Swallow No. 1 increased again, narrowly missing Faust's hand.

Shinjo had a triumphant smile on his face. If they weren't still in the midst of a battle, he would have wanted to give Daigo a big hug.

They truly deserve to be called a top-tier team; they were incredibly effective!

Daigo also breathed a sigh of relief. He had just been preparing to transform into Ultraman Tiga, but thankfully Shinjo didn't mess things up.

Tiga's battle time was only three minutes, so Jiang Yu told Daigo to find the right opportunity to enter the fray.

And for some reason, Daigo always felt that this strange area was excessively oppressive.

It was as if all the light was being suppressed.

"Faust, your opponent is me; you've come to the wrong place."

Jiang Yu didn't have time to think about why the Victory Team was able to enter the Dark Realm without having data from the Dark Realm or the technology of the Visitors.

But now we are no longer fighting alone; the advantage is clearly in our hands.

If Jiang Yu doesn't take advantage of this opportunity to give Faust a good beating, then his trip to the Dream Relics will have been in vain.

With a sudden burst of power from his legs, Jiang Yu lunged forward, his hand slashing straight at Faust's neck.

Before Faust could react, he groaned and staggered back two steps, only to be struck in the chest by Jiang Yu's Nexus Armor, which sparked a burst of sparks.

"ha!"

Faust retreated instantly, his eyes glaring fiercely at Jiang Yu, who had transformed into Nexus.

Damn it, if the puppet hadn't been so weak and hadn't completely digested the power of that dark domain, how could it have ended up in such a sorry state?

"Daigo, now's the time. Let's show him the power of humanity."

Seizing the opportunity, Shinjo launched several powerful lasers that struck Faust in the back, while urging Daigo to assist.

"clear!"

Daigo also had a smile on his face, as if he wasn't too difficult to deal with, and it seemed like he could manage without transforming.

Fortunately, the plane didn't crash, so there was no possibility that it would be discovered by the new city.

"Insects and that awful light, they all deserve to die."

Faust seemed unable to bear his current predicament any longer, and under Jiang Yu's wary gaze, the dark power intensified even further.

However, I feel that my mental state is becoming more and more abnormal.

Fighting off Faust, who pounced on him like a ferocious beast, Jiang Yu forced himself to retreat despite his weakness.

Nexus lived up to his reputation; perhaps compounded by his own physical weakness, he always seemed to be losing his vitality.

Jiang Yu's earlier feeling was correct; after being nearly drained dry by Faust, his body became unexpectedly fragile.

It's not a matter of physical fitness, but a matter of the continuation of vitality.

Jiang Yu hadn't noticed this while eating ramen, but after fighting Faust, he realized the change.

Their vitality is getting weaker and weaker, but their fighting power seems to be getting stronger and stronger.

Even in the dark realm where he was at a disadvantage, Jiang Yu was still able to suppress Faust for a time with his physical strength.

Is the mere bond that binds generation after generation truly living up to its reputation?

But it's all for the best; a warrior who's willing to die for his life is the perfect fit for Jiang Yu's current situation.

This strange state of being both weak and strong is unexpectedly good.

"Daigo, hurry up and do it!"

With his hands firmly gripping the horns on Faust's head, Jiang Yu communicated with Daigu through telepathy while wrestling with him.

Faust seems to have taken some kind of drug, as if he traded his brains for strength, and now he's charging around like a bull.

Given Faust's current physical strength, even if the Flying Swallow No. 1 were to shoot him, it wouldn't have much of a useful effect.

We still need to let Daigo go straight to the field, finish his work early, and maybe he'll have a chance to eat a bowl of Obik's ramen tomorrow.

"this……"

Daigo looked conflicted. Now that the plane hadn't crashed, what opportunity should he look for to transform?

If all else fails, then...

I'm sorry to have troubled you, Xincheng team members!

Just as Xincheng was happily firing lasers at Faust, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his head.

No, there's danger!

Just as Shinjo was about to speak up to warn Daigo, Daigo swiftly and cleanly knocked Shinjo unconscious with his Spark Lens.

Filled with guilt, Daigo transformed into Ultraman Tiga in the light, caught the now-uncontrolled Flying Swallow 1, and placed it in a safe place.

He didn't want it to be like this, but for the sake of proper secrecy, he had no choice but to suffer in Xincheng.

Anyway, they're a top-tier group, and Metro Radio will definitely forgive them afterward.

Daigo is not yet mentally prepared for everyone to know his identity.

Since it's not a solo battle against monsters or anything, we need to test the waters first.

Jiang Yu has firmly controlled Faust; all Daigo needs to do is go up and do it.

Without hesitation, Daigo endured the discomfort of the dark environment and cut it into the red, powerful shape.

He clenched his fist and delivered a powerful punch to Faust's back, knocking him down instantly.

Jiang Yu looked at Da Gu, who had a fierce style, and felt a sense of emotion.

See, why didn't you just use the red form from the start, you reckless Daigo?

Jiang Yu hadn't expected to have any outside help this time; the appearance of Daigo and Shinjo was truly an unexpected surprise.

Even Ultraman Tiga doesn't seem to have any skills related to spatial domains, yet the GUTS team managed to get in.

If nothing unexpected happens, it's likely that Horii Amu will be the one to make a move again.

Scientists in the Austronesian system seem to be quite illogical; they always seem to have a way of inventing something to solve any problem they encounter.

Technologically advanced systems like TLT are able to penetrate the meta-data domain because they are provided with meta-data by Gumen and combined with relevant assistance from visitors.

Horii, on the other hand, managed to develop this technology without saying a word. Such a technical talent is truly enviable.

Jiang Yu cleared his mind of unnecessary thoughts, loosened the corner of Faust, and stood side by side with Daigo.

"Daigo, he's not quite right in the head right now. Let's take him down!"

Jiang Yu felt the increasingly powerful energy within his body and the rapidly decreasing life force, and said urgently.

"good!"

Daigo, seeing Faust roaring wildly and trying to charge towards them again, immediately agreed.

For some reason, he always felt an itch to touch the horns on Faust's head, but for now he could only ignore that strange feeling.

The most important thing is to eliminate Faust in front of us!

Daigo instantly switched back to his composite form, crossed his arms in front of him, and then unleashed the Zepelion Ray with an L-shaped gesture.

Jiang Yu didn't mince words; his Cross Storm skill precisely struck Faust, who was charging blindly forward.

Where the light met, Faust froze, then gradually disappeared into a burst of light.

P.S.: I have some things to take care of today and tomorrow, so I can only update twice a day for now. I'll resume three updates on Thursday. I'm really sorry.
