Chapter 454 Justice: Humans, this time I'm on your side!
[24 hours until humanity's extinction]
Night falls.
Humanity's worst traits were laid bare in the apocalypse.
Julie walked alone on a dilapidated street without streetlights.
Suddenly, several roaring heavy motorcycles sped out from around the corner and surrounded her.
Several young men with shaved heads and carrying iron bars jumped off the car in a frivolous manner, looking Julie up and down with frivolous eyes.
As the end of the world approached, they revealed their true nature.
"Oh, it's a woman."
The leader of the thugs whistled and approached with a sinister grin.
"I heard the end of the world is coming soon. Let's have some fun together in these last moments, miss."
Julie gave them a cold glance, her icy gaze as if she were looking at a pile of garbage.
"As expected, a pest is always a pest."
Julie's voice was devoid of any warmth.
"What the hell, you bastard?!"
"You woman!"
Enraged, the thug raised an iron bar and smashed it down.
"Everyone, hurry up and get in!"
In the next ten seconds, a clean and decisive one-sided crushing victory unfolded on the screen.
Julie didn't even take off the cumbersome black trench coat; she just threw a few punches.
With a sickening cracking sound, the once arrogant thugs instantly collapsed to the ground, howling and rolling around in agony.
"Help! Help me!"
The ringleader scrambled away into the distance.
As Julie watched their disheveled figures recede into the distance, the last flicker of doubt in her eyes was replaced by coldness once more.
"This is your true nature as humans. It's not worth protecting at all."
[Hahaha, a classic post-apocalyptic villainous thug, why did he have to mess with this living ancestor if he wasn't content with just living?]
[Sister Justice: Beating up a bunch of weaklings like you is a piece of cake.]
[That legwork is amazing! The winner of the "Most Beautiful Legs" award truly lives up to her name! The power of that side kick... Gu Nan is definitely a leg enthusiast!]
[That thug was really unlucky. He tried to flirt with a girl on an apocalypse, but he ran into a brick wall.]
[She was just moved by the little girl, then immediately disgusted by the thugs; Sister Justice's emotions were constantly fluctuating.]
Therefore, humanity is a paradox, possessing both extreme good and extreme evil.
[These blond thugs have successfully accelerated the pace of humanity's extinction; I suggest they be shot on sight.]
Just as Julie was about to turn and leave, a man's voice came from the shadows of the street.
Captain Wind slowly walked out.
He was just searching for Musashi's signal with the young elite team members from the older generation of TV dramas.
And now he sees Julie here.
He looked at Julie with unwavering eyes:
"Justice, you were with Gauss."
"Together, you will protect the Earth from the destruction of Saint Delos."
Julie stopped walking, without turning around:
"At that time, I wasn't fighting for humanity."
"Saint Delos destroyed many planets, that's why I want to defeat him."
"Are you acting for the sake of cosmic justice?"
The wind blew, questioning.
"That's right. I definitely felt it when I first saw Ultraman Justice."
"You are not only strong, but also kind, just like Gauss."
Upon hearing the word "kindness," Julie's shoulders trembled slightly, but she quickly concealed it, turned around, and retorted coldly:
"Saint Delos, they used to be very similar to humans."
"Having dreams and love, those vague emotions, makes one a flawed life form."
"Sooner or later, humanity will become the destroyers of the universe, just like Saint Delos..."
But the wind blew, and it remained unmoved.
"Even if everything you say is true, humanity still has two thousand years to go!"
"time?"
Julie suddenly raised her head, a flash of pain and regret in her eyes.
"I gave you time."
"It was given to Saint Delos two thousand years ago."
"But... I was wrong!"
She stared intently at the wind, her voice, for the first time, showing emotional fluctuations:
"I will not make the same mistake again!"
"You've simply chosen the easy path!"
The wind blew mercilessly, shattering her disguise.
"An easy road?"
Julie was taken aback.
"Whether it's Gauss or Musashi."
The wind blew with unwavering determination, as if it pierced through the darkness and saw the dawn.
"They held onto hope until the very end."
"I believe a miracle will happen!"
"A miracle...?"
Julie muttered to herself…
"But in reality, miracles won't happen."
She turned and walked into the darkness, leaving Fengchui alone on the empty street.
[Brother Chui has changed his strategy! Physical damage output isn't working, so he's switching to magical damage!]
[This verbal skill is truly a Musashi-esque technique!]
[Justice Sister has actually broken down; she fears that humanity will repeat the mistakes of Saint Delos, so she dares not gamble again.]
[Saint Delos: You're so high and mighty, using me as a negative example!]
[I understand now. She's not absolutely evil, but rather a paranoid person tormented by past failures.]
The line from Feng Chui, "You've just chosen the easy path," truly reminded her that shirking responsibility is indeed easier than believing in the future.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
We switched to a dense forest on the outskirts of the city.
This is where Musashi and Gauss first met.
The search and rescue team consists of Rena, Captain Haruko, Vice Captain Mizuha, Dr. Tsuchikage, and the Seiya Islands administrator who brings along a small monster named "Mining".
He was anxiously searching through the forest for Musashi's whereabouts.
Even Musashi's mother came.
"Don't worry, Rena."
Captain Haruka comforted the anxious Rena.
"We think the same way you do."
"Musashi couldn't have died so easily; he must still be alive!"
"Yes!"
Rena wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and her gaze regained its strength.
"Let's work together to find Musashi!"
[The entire cast is back! The soul of this TV drama is back!]
[Musashi is getting all sorts of treatment; his childhood friend, confidante, parents, and comrades-in-arms are all looking for him.]
Everyone knows he's Ultraman!
[Hurry and find them! The Earth can't hold on much longer!]
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, humanity's counterattack was still making its final struggle.
The signals sent by the youth elite team received no response from Delacion.
The remaining missile units of each country launched again as planned.
"Enemy spaceship 8000 feet away... Launch!"
The space laser cannons also began to activate as the spacecraft approached.
Unsurprisingly, the missiles failed to penetrate the defenses of the Gloca mothership, not even igniting a spark.
As Julie said:
"It's no use, miracles don't exist."
Before humanity could recover from the shock of their ineffective attack, the alien spaceship launched a counterattack.
"Captain! A large spaceship has dropped multiple energy modules!"
The camera zooms out to the sky.
The bottom hatch of the mothership, Gloca, opened wide, and countless spheres shimmering with red light poured down like a torrential rain.
These red balls rapidly transformed in mid-air, turning into Gloca Soldiers (elite robots) that were over sixty meters tall.
They completely ignored the high temperatures of the atmosphere and accurately struck major cities and military bases around the world.
Then fire a laser into the air!
"Even military satellites were all destroyed!"
In the scene, armed satellites in low Earth orbit are precisely targeted by beams of red destructive light, turning into dazzling fireballs in the universe.
On the ground, the bustling city was instantly transformed into a living hell.
The Gloca robots wielded their enormous pincers, relentlessly destroying skyscrapers, and red destructive energy blasts turned the streets into a sea of fire.
People screamed, cried, and scattered in the ruins.
The atmosphere inside the command center of the new youth elite team was extremely oppressive.
Julie, watching the robot's destruction from a distance, was not surprised:
"The attacks we just suffered have made Groca decide that they will make humanity lose its will to fight."
……
"I'm afraid that humanity will have to be reset in the future."
Inside the command center, a sense of despair had spread to everyone's face.
"Never give up!"
A powerful roar shattered the suffocating atmosphere.
Captain Wind stood there, his eyes as sharp as burning flames.
"If you give up, if you lose faith in the future and your dreams, then everything will end!"
Feng Chui surveyed everyone in the command room and said, word by word:
"My companions are now searching for Musashi and Gauss."
"They didn't give up hope until the very last moment!"
"Musashi, hold on until the very last moment!"
The wind suddenly turned around and loudly issued the command:
"Youth Elite Team, move out!"
Inspired by this unwavering belief, the team members straightened their backs and responded loudly:
"clear!"
[Brother Chui is so cool!!! This is the kind of responsibility a captain should have!]
[Only in turbulent times can true heroes emerge; Feng Chui is clearly prepared to charge forward with his life on the line.]
The hymn of humanity is the hymn of courage!
After several rounds of defense force aircraft crashed.
Feng Chui piloted the Tek fighter jet, struggling to dodge the robots' beam attacks in the air, gritting his teeth and persevering.
Suddenly, a high-pitched and familiar cry came from the sky.
"That's... Lidorias?!"
Feng Chui stared at the screen in shock.
Amidst the flames, the enormous, friendly bird Lydolius slashed through the sky, its sharp talons gripping the head of a Gloca robot and dragging it to the ground.
"What exactly happened?"
"Galmedy!"
"Captain, look at that!"
"It's the Dragon Devourer, and also Borgiers!"
The female team member pointed excitedly at the big screen.
On the earth, the monsters that Gauss and Musashi had once treated gently and protected with their lives now spontaneously broke out of the protected area.
They roared, using their massive bodies and primal power to wrestle with those ruthless alien killing machines.
"The monsters that Gauss once saved have come to save Earth from crisis!"
The wind blew loudly.
"Now! Launch!"
The Tek fighter seized the opening created by the monsters and fired a main cannon shot precisely into the core of a robot, blasting it into a pile of scrap metal.
[Holy crap! This is amazing!!! Monsters have come to save humanity!]
This is the meaning behind Musashi's perseverance! He saved the monster, and now the monster has come to save the Earth!
Lidorius, eternal god! This bird is reliable, but when there's trouble, it's truly there!
Even the Dragon Eater is here! This is the grand scale of the first theatrical film!
[Gauss, did you see that? Your efforts weren't in vain!]
All things possess a spirit, and the power of bonds is mutual.
Earth's ecological defense system activated! Crush these alien machines!
However, the enemy's strength far exceeded expectations.
In the sky, the mothership Gloca emitted a low hum.
The few remaining Groca Soldiers on the ground quickly approached each other, and in the dazzling red light, they began to disintegrate and reassemble!
With a sickening metallic scraping sound, a larger, more heavily armored Gloca Car (second form) with giant cannons mounted on its arms crashed down!
"Gloca's second form... Now, the monsters have no chance of winning."
Julie concluded.
Faced with the doubled firepower of Gloca Car, the monsters' primal melee combat was instantly overwhelmed.
Lidorius was blasted away by a cannon shot, and Gormetti was trampled underfoot, howling in pain.
In a corner of the battlefield, the little girl from before was desperately digging through the rubble with her bare hands.
"Gauss! Someone come quick! Is anyone there?!" the girl cried out.
The little dog named Gauss was trapped under a huge concrete slab, whimpering weakly.
"Gauss, it's buried under the rocks! Please save it!"
The girl's hands were covered in blood, but she still refused to give up.
Julie appeared behind her at some point, and seeing this scene, her brows furrowed tightly.
You'd better run away quickly.
Julie said coldly:
"My own life should be more important than that dog's."
"don't want!"
The girl turned her head and shouted with tears streaming down her face!
"Gauss... Gauss is my best friend! Please save it!"
"friend?"
Julie was stunned.
She looked at the girl's reckless attitude, then turned to look at the monsters on the battlefield being humiliated while trying to protect the Earth.
"If we don't save Gauss, it will definitely die!"
The girl cried her heart out.
"Why...why do they all have to do this?"
"Is a dog more important than your own life...?"
Julie's heart was in turmoil.
She closed her eyes, and Musashi's smile, the wind's questioning, and the pure kindness of the girl in front of her replayed in her mind.
"Annihilate all who resist!"
Gloca Car emitted a cold, mechanical voice as it aimed its cannon at the monster on the ground, preparing for the final execution.
"Stop right there!"
A loud shout rang out!
Julie suddenly opened her eyes, strode forward, and gripped the huge concrete slab that was pressing down on the puppy with both hands.
With a sharp shout, she forcefully overturned the stone slab weighing several tons to the ground!
The puppy was rescued and jumped into the girl's arms.
"That's wonderful, Gauss! Thank you!"
The girl stopped crying and started laughing.
Julie looked at her dusty hands, then at the distant battlefield, and her expression changed completely.
"Gauss... is this your reason for wanting to protect this planet?"
She raised her head, her gaze more resolute than ever before.
"Is this why you believe in the future of humanity?"
[They've been exonerated!!!]
[Lifting a stone slab with bare hands! That's incredible arm strength!]
Ultimately, he was moved by human kindness; Gauss's death was not in vain!
Peel away the villain's defenses little by little, until they completely betray you!
She's not a villain! She's just an Ultra Warrior who's gone astray!
Is it going to transform next?! Hurry up, the monster's about to be killed!
On the battlefield, while covering the monster, the wind-blown Tek fighter was unfortunately hit on the tail by the beam of the Gloca Car.
The alarm blared wildly in the cockpit, and black smoke billowed everywhere.
"Damn it! The engine is damaged!"
The wind blew, and he pulled the control lever with all his might.
The liaison officer shouted anxiously:
"Captain, get out of here!"
"No, I can't get out!"
The ejection seat malfunctioned, and the fighter jet plummeted straight to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
"Is this the end of my dream?"
The wind blew, and he closed his eyes, preparing to face death.
Look at that!
Inside the command center, a female team member suddenly pointed at the large screen and screamed.
"Buzz—!"
A clear and sacred sound of energy resonated throughout the heavens and earth.
A dazzling golden light, like the rising sun, shot up from the ruins and instantly pierced through the thick smoke of the battlefield.
The light condensed in mid-air, transforming into a giant silver-red hand that steadily supported the crashing fighter jet.
The golden light slowly dissipated.
Set to a powerful and epic background music.
The giant of light stands tall on the earth.
The colored timer on his chest flashed with a deep blue light, and the rugged armor, interwoven with silver and red and black, gleamed in the smoke of battle.
"This is... Ultraman Justice!"
