Tiga returns to take a leisurely look at human affairs

Perhaps noticing Dagu's complicated expression, D put away the thermos cup and chuckled.

"But no matter what, you have done everything you can do. It's just like you said when you were in the Tongkara Ling ruins, isn't it?"

Da Gu paused in his movements, and then looked at the end of the beach, the sparkling sea.

Afterwards, in the brief silence, Dagu took a few sips of the hot miso soup. The chill in his body that had been soaked by the sea water last night was immediately dissipated.

On the other side, D had divided half of the large portion of boneless fried chicken and asked Geddy to go aside and start eating.

"Thank you, I am indeed a little hungry."

He quickly finished off his portion of hot dog, then picked up the soup bowl and sipped it carefully. Finally, after burping, Dagu let out a long breath.

Seeing that D was still enjoying the soup slowly, Dagu hesitated for a moment, and finally decided not to go around in circles.

He took out the damaged divine light rod from his arms and solemnly placed it on the beach between the two of them.

"I think it's time to return it to its original owner. But I'm sorry that I failed to protect the power you left. Maybe I'm not qualified to use it..."

D glanced at the light stick, but had no intention of taking it back. He just said while sipping the soup.

"It seems that you have already guessed my identity. This saves me the time to explain. But without this power, do you think mankind can survive the upcoming crisis of extinction?"

"Didn't you come back to Earth to protect us? Just like 30 million years ago?" Dagu asked in surprise.

"You seem to have misunderstood. It has never been the responsibility of giants to protect humans. Even the giants of light who are more friendly to humans are actually mostly out of interest or profit."

D calmly drank the soup in the bowl and said with some aftertaste.

"It tastes really good. Maybe you should try it at this fast food restaurant, uh... if you don't get into a fight with them."

Dagu didn't understand what D meant by this sentence, but when the other party spoke again, the conversation had returned to the main topic.

"Actually, I am the same. Whether I participate in protecting human beings or leave this power on the earth in the end, it is only because of the agreement with You Lian."

"You Lian!" Dagu finally heard this familiar name, and he couldn't wait to ask: "Is he the leader of the Earth Guard Corps 30 million years ago? What did you agree on?"

"Well, a woman who is both smart and tricky, she promised to show me a possibility. Unfortunately, she only made the beginning, and gradually got out of control in the middle, until it completely collapsed. But in the end, it was not a complete defeat. After all, human civilization is still It has survived till now.”

Dagu noticed the rather complicated emotions in D's words, but did not interrupt. He just continued to listen quietly to D's continued words.

"I left my manufactured body on the earth, and after You Lian realized that she could no longer prevent the fate of destruction, she launched a backup plan. Creating a gene pool to preserve human fire would activate the stone statue's Energy factors are injected into the gene pool.

Therefore, whenever human beings face a crisis, energy factors will be transformed into manifestations in some people's bodies, thereby activating the power of the stone statues to deal with the crisis, until new human beings can develop and prosper again on the earth.

It can be said that most of the humans on the earth today were saved by You Lian himself. But my agreement with You Lian ended the moment I left the stone statue and energy factor.

Now, even if you return the Divine Light Rod to me, I will not use it to protect humans. This means that no one can become Ultraman Tiga in the eyes of the world today, and all of You Lian's efforts will truly come to an end. "

D looked at Dagu and said seriously: "So, you'd better think about it before making a decision."

Not knowing how to answer for a moment, Dagu felt that he still needed time to think, so he could only change the topic slightly and said it half-jokingly.

"Oh! No wonder we look so similar. It turns out to be the result of super ancient technology. I thought you were my ancestor!"

And D didn't look like he was over 30 million years old at all. Instead, he laughed a few times and said.

"If according to contemporary human terms, I am still a single guy who has not found a girlfriend, where will my descendants come from, hahaha!"

Amid D's laughter, Dagu took the time to digest the information revealed by D.

In his opinion, D's intention was obviously to continue to insist on the idea that giants would not interfere with human choices.

Therefore, during a period of silence and hesitation, Dagu still reached out and retrieved the divine light stick placed on the sand.

Seeing the crack on the divine light rod, Dagu guessed that D had a way to repair it, but it was clear that the other party had just saved him and treated him to breakfast.

Dagu always felt embarrassed to ask the other party now, so he took the initiative to ask.

"I don't know. Regarding your return to Earth this time...is there anything we can do to help you?"

"help me?"

D looked a little surprised, "You can't help with this, besides..."

Seeing the divine light stick in Dagu's hand, D immediately showed a look of surprise.

"I understand, you want me to help fix it? Unfortunately, I no longer have that power. But you can rest assured that there is no way to solve it."

"In what way?"

Dagu clenched the divine light stick with some excitement.

"It's actually very simple, but before that, I have a question. I hope you can think about it carefully before answering."

Seeing D's serious look, Da Gu also straightened up and nodded seriously.

"After what happened last night, do you think humans are still worth risking your life to protect?"

After hearing this question, Dagu immediately had the answer in his heart, so without much thought, Dagu answered in a very serious tone.

"It's worth it because I'm human too."

Indeed, Dagu also knew in his heart that if it was the time when he had just gained the power of a giant, he would have been confused and hesitant. But now along the way, Dagu has thought about the answer to this question countless times.

In the battle with the composite monster Ligardron, he felt the indomitable spirit of mankind; in the process of fighting against the Machine Island with his fellow Victory Team members, he experienced the meaning of cooperation and trust; in the process of participating in the annihilation battle of the Lightning Man , he seriously thought about the meaning of fighting as Ultraman.

Until now, the tragedy caused by a few rats last night could no longer shake Dagu's faith.

Therefore, Dagu also summoned up the courage to ask a question that he had been thinking about for a while.

"You once mentioned that there will be a little bit of the giant's past thoughts left in the stone statues. After inheriting the stone statues you left, I also noticed the existence of this kind of thoughts. If what Masaki Keigo feels is resentment and madness, then What I feel is confusion.

So I guess you encountered something confusing or troubled, so you left the earth. Are you coming back now because you have found the answer? "
