Chapter 288 Taking Pride in Living
Chapter 288 Taking Pride in Living
Light energy flows and generates electric sparks; blue-white Ultra Rays descend from the sky, vanquishing evil and destroying darkness.
The figure of the giant of light descended from the sky, accompanied by a pale blue contrail, bringing a pure and healing radiance.
The magical energy of the Courageous Crystal emanated from Zeta's body, creating a life force field that repelled the evil beasts. The arrival of the Giant of Light overwhelmingly determined the outcome of the battle.
"Zeta, is it really Zeta?"
Elifa was so excited she almost cried. She never expected that Ultraman would arrive in time to save her life during the most critical moment.
"What's going on, Luo Yi? What are these monsters?"
When Haruki and Zeta arrived at the scene, they realized how out of control the situation was. The skeletons and distorted monsters covering the mountains and fields seemed to be products of this world, as if they had just escaped from a graveyard.
Yao Hui originally wanted to use the Light Magic Stone to sense A Jiu's location, but for some reason the signal suddenly stopped halfway through, and he could not sense any signal from A Jiu's magic book.
Zeta was momentarily lost on the journey after losing his guide, but eventually noticed the commotion in the sea clouds and rushed over in time.
The Spirit Knights stood up again, and the pure energy of courage and righteousness emanating from Zeta drove back the evil spirits, finally giving Luo Yi and Elifa a chance to catch their breath.
"Muban's energy has mutated and gone out of control, resurrecting the withered bones of sea beasts beneath the clouds. I don't know exactly what happened to him."
"Where is he now? Is he still here?"
With Elifa nearby, Luo Yi didn't want to say too much. He just wanted to tell his superior, Muban, what had happened to him, and he would explain the reasons behind it later when he had the chance.
Zeta glanced around and discovered that these skeletons all possessed the same type of energy—an extremely abnormal energy that horrified him.
The opposition between death and life has existed for a long time and will continue indefinitely. Whether it is humans in this world or Ultraman from another world, as living beings, they cannot accept the spirits of the dead as representatives of death.
Muban also noticed Zeta's arrival. The retreat of the skeleton monsters made Muban realize the enormous threat Ultraman posed to the undead.
It's difficult to even get close; the radiance emanating from Zeta is enough to cause the skeletal monster to disintegrate with just a touch.
"I never imagined that the greatest enemy that death would face in this world would be an outsider from another world."
"It's unexpected, but there's a way to deal with it."
Muban knew he was no match for Zeta now. He had retreated and blended into the underground darkness. To get rid of Zeta, he would need to use some unprecedented methods.
If we're only talking about destructive power, then Zeta is nothing to fear for the undead army. Death is not a fear for them, but a companion. The undead are not afraid of being shattered to pieces.
For the undead and death, the most deadly thing is Zeta's light energy and healing. That dazzling, nauseating thing can erase the aura of death and make the undead completely evaporate in the light.
This was undoubtedly a form of torture for the Legion of Death.
"Go! Stop Zeta!"
Muban's departure marked the beginning of the undead army's uprising. This was an order from the Originators, and the undead had no right to resist.
If they don't sacrifice themselves to protect the Originator's plan, the Death Legion's growth will never continue, and Ultraman Zeta, equipped with the Pure Crystal of Courage, will wipe them all out.
Muban immediately used Earth Escape to return to the ruins. Since he had created the Courageous Pure Crystal, he knew better than anyone that the healing energy came from the phantom beast.
If the mythical beasts die, then the Courageous Pure Crystal will either be wiped out or mutated, and Zeta will no longer be able to pose a threat to his army.
"Ah! Those monsters are attacking again!"
Elifa's scream alerted Zeta and Luo Yi at the same time. Faced with the surging sea of skeletons, any living being would be terrified at the sight.
"I'll hold them off! Luo Yi, you take Ajiu and the others and get out of here quickly!"
"No, I'll stay here. Zeta, you take Elifa and Ajiu away. Ajiu was attacked by Muban's power, only you can help her!"
Zeta wanted to take action, but the Spirit Knight blocked his way and handed Elifa and Ajiu over to Zeta.
"These monsters fear the energy of the Courageous Crystal. Only the Courageous Crystal can completely save Ajiu. Only you can do this!"
The Spirit Knight stomped his feet, summoning his sword and shield, fully prepared for offense and defense. He was going to hold off all the skeletal monsters to buy time for his commander.
"Muban has already escaped. He's probably off to attack the phantom beast. We don't have time to waste!"
"Go save her quickly! If the phantom beast dies, who knows what terrible things might happen?"
Luo Yi's voice was passionate, like a desperate cry, and his aura was like that of a warrior ready to die. But everyone present knew that Luo Yi was just a young man with a tragic fate.
Any advice Zeta might offer would only be rejected by Luo Yi, who was already determined to fight to the death.
The sword flashed, sweeping across the area, but before one wave subsided, another rose. The fallen monsters reassembled and stood up again, seemingly endless and impossible to kill.
And Muban could create many more monsters like these.
The situation was urgent, and Zeta ultimately protected Elifa and Aji and left.
He knew he shouldn't put the heavy responsibility on Luo's shoulders alone, but Zeta had no other choice. If he wanted to save Luo, he wouldn't be able to save the phantom beast.
"You have grown into an outstanding hero, Luo Yi. I believe your parents will be very proud of you."
Unaware of the truth, Zeta could only come up with the words of praise he could muster. He felt that having a child like Luo Yi by his side must be something to be very proud of.
Knowing the truth about Luo Yi's family, Elifa felt particularly heavy-hearted upon hearing Zeta's words. Her family had never treated Luo Yi kindly and had only caused him unnecessary suffering.
Luo Yi once studied under Mu Ban, who treated him like a father. He grew up with Elifa and lived like a family.
However, Elifa clearly remembered the terrible state of Luo Yi when they reunited. It was undoubtedly the result of being attacked with lethal force, and Elifa knew that it was her father who killed Luo Yi.
Since Ariel's mother left, the whole family has changed. Her father has become obsessed with research, and her brother has become withdrawn and only wants to seek power and the truth.
Elifa hasn't felt the joy of reuniting with her family in a long time; each meeting is just a fleeting moment before they part again.
This time is no exception.
Zeta's figure soared into the sky, and the Spirit Knights that Elifa could see became increasingly blurry. She couldn't make out Luo Yi's appearance clearly, and she didn't even know if this would be the last time she saw Luo Yi.
"Keep going, Luo Yi! You must live on happily!"
Zeta released the energy of the Courage Crystal, making the Z-shaped crystal on his chest shine brightly. A beam of light, imbued with power and hope, was injected into the Spirit Knight's body. This was the last bit of help Zeta could give to Luo Yi before he left.
Filled with energy from Ultraman and Yongyi Pure Crystal, Luo Yi experienced for the first time the power of light that strengthened his resolve to live.
Looking at the dark monster in front of him, the Light Spirit Knight suddenly felt that he had the courage to stand against ten thousand men!
Luo Yi is proud to be alive!
