Chapter Seven: The Frustrated Death of Zharab, Targeting the Mogar Serpent

“Aim for his mouth and eyes!”
“Avoid the silver parts on his head; those areas are tougher!”
Lin Yu commanded sharply, firing his gun at an astonishing rate of eleven rounds per second, emptying the magazine directly into the Zarabian’s mouth and eyes!
Da Gu, Shinjo, Aihara Ryu, and the other GUYS team members quickly followed suit, shifting their scattered shots to target the Zarabian’s chest, heart, eyes, and mouth.
As members of the defense force, their basic marksmanship was solid, with hardly any missed shots.

“Damn Earthlings!”
The Zarabian howled in rage and despair, cursing bitterly. He strained with all his might to grow to enormous size, but Lin Yu’s Ultra telekinesis held him firmly in place!
Dark green blood spurted out as bullet holes riddled his body.
As the Zarabian’s cries weakened, his body stiffened and collapsed to the ground.
Though weak among the cosmic beings, his arrogance and information gap cost him his life!
Had he known Lin Yu was in this selection process, he would never have come!
Had he immediately risked everything to grow gigantic upon being discovered by Lin Yu, he might still have had a chance!
But no matter what was said, it was too late.

Staring at the broken, lifeless corpse of the Zarabian, everyone present was momentarily stunned, as if in a dream.
“We… we actually killed an alien?”
“Without relying on fighter missiles, without turning the surroundings into ruins, and without losing comrades, we killed an invader!”
“Am I dreaming? Yamada, slap me and see.”
“You actually want me to slap you?”
A series of exclamations rang out, all overwhelmed by joy!
As members of the defense force, they knew how difficult these enemies were to confront!
In a world without Ultramen, relying solely on humanity to deal with these supernatural beings was incredibly hard!

“Captain Lin Yu, you’re amazing! How did you realize this was an alien?”
Lina looked at Lin Yu excitedly, her eyes sparkling.
“We didn’t sense anything unusual at all. Honestly, when you suddenly opened fire, I thought you’d lost your mind,” Shinjo said openly, scratching his head.
“These aliens are truly hard to guard against. Luckily, Captain Lin Yu saw through it.”
Da Gu exhaled deeply, still shaken.
After all, the victory team thought this guy was quite decent and were considering recruiting him!

“Sorry… I was reckless.”
Aihara Ryu’s face flushed slightly as he apologized, but he could only get halfway through before falling silent, standing there awkwardly.

“Captain Lin Yu, please let me join the HUD team! I’m willing to give everything for the squad!”
A young man who had originally intended to join the GUYS team stepped forward solemnly and bowed deeply!
His enthusiasm seemed contagious, sparking a chain reaction—dozens of others who had witnessed everything eagerly followed suit, clamoring to join!
“Captain Lin Yu, please let me join the HUD team!”
“I can repair fighter jets. If I join, I’ll definitely contribute!”
“I’m an expert at serving tea and running errands. Captain Lin Yu, please allow me to serve you!”
The spirited voices never ceased.

Originally, the newly established HUD team, with only a lone captain, was not popular.
Applications had been sparse.
Now, suddenly, everyone surged forward—without exception!

“I will review your resumes. Please be patient,” Lin Yu said with a faint smile, rubbing his head, slightly sore from exerting his Ultra telekinesis. He responded with official politeness.
He glanced at the Zarabian’s corpse, then at the gathered crowd.
“The Zarabians are vicious aliens from the Zarabian star, skilled in hypnosis and shapeshifting. They’re cunning and treacherous, but their transformations are not flawless—their eyes are their greatest weakness. They cannot hide their foolish pride and viciousness.”
“Of course, for ordinary people, it’s still wise to remain vigilant.”
Lin Yu shook his head slightly.
It was difficult for ordinary people without special abilities to see through Zarabian disguises.
Even Ultramen could be fooled.
Without Ultra telekinesis, he wouldn’t have discovered this.

“Da Gu, Lina, Shinjo, please take the Zarabian’s corpse to headquarters.”
“We will, Captain Lin Yu!”
They nodded repeatedly.
“I’m leaving now.”
Lin Yu waved and exited the building, leaving behind the bustling crowd still fervently discussing the events.

Meanwhile, beyond Earth, a cloaked spaceship swaggered past the satellite station of the Defense Force’s space unit.
Human technology was utterly incapable of detecting it.

Inside the ship, three aliens stood in the dim, cramped space, their faces obscured by shadows.

---

But any Ultraman fan would instantly recognize them!

The assassin alien—the Nakelian!
The doppelganger alien—the Gatzian!
The malevolent alien—the Imperialian!

This lineup was all too familiar—weren’t they the cosmic alliance from the Ultraman Mebius movie, who unleashed the ultimate monster Saurus and contributed to the creation of Ultimate Ultra Infinite Mebius?
The only one missing was the vicious alien—the Zarabian.
It seemed the unlucky one who died at Lin Yu’s hands was him.

“That worthless Zarabian actually died at the hands of a bunch of humans. Such a disgraceful existence has no right to belong to us,” the Gatzian spoke first, his voice trembling with an eerie tone.

“His gigantification was suppressed. There really are formidable individuals among humans. We’d better not shrink ourselves,” the Nakelian said quietly.

“It’s just a petty trick. Only Zarabian tried sneaking into the human headquarters with that nonsense plan. Otherwise, if I had acted first, I’d have wiped out the so-called Defense Force in no time!”
The Imperialian sneered, his blue crab-like pincers clenching tightly—a pure violent element.

“Enough. Zarabian’s death at least gave us some intelligence. It’s a pity his plan failed; otherwise, those Defense Forces would be fighting some troublesome elements to death, which could reduce our troubles.”
The Nakelian shook his head slightly.
His gaze turned toward this beautiful blue planet, eyes burning with fervor.

“Magor Serpent, the legendary terrifying being from the Monster Galaxy, possessing power beyond all Demon Beasts. It is a bottomless hunger, an ultimate monster capable of devouring galaxies and even the universe!”
“According to rumors, thousands of years ago, a Magor Serpent came to Earth and laid a beast egg, buried deep underground!”
“By the reckoning of time, it might be about to hatch!”
“If we can find the Magor Serpent’s egg in advance, not only will we wield this great power, but also command a Demon Beast army surpassing ordinary monsters. Our cosmic alliance will leap to the top ranks of power!”
“Forget a handful of life-bearing planets—even the galaxy and more star systems will be mere playthings for us!”
The Nakelian’s voice took on a fanatical edge.

“But before that, there are still several threats on Earth that haven’t been eliminated. It’s not easy to make a move...”
The Gatzian spoke.

“Leave those to me!”
“But when the time comes, the top spot must be mine!”
The Imperialian thumped his chest thunderously!

The Nakelian and Gatzian exchanged a subtle smile.
“Of course, if you Imperialians are the boss, we’ll be more than willing to accept it...”
