Ultraman's legendary journey begins in the Land of Light

Helis took Qi Yao with him, crossed half the globe, and returned to the special forces base as quickly as possible.

However, because Helis had consumed too much energy in the previous battle, and Qi Yao could not adapt well to ultra-high-speed flight, it still took Helis almost half an hour to return to the special forces base.

At this moment, due to the influence of the power of the evil star Gross, the whole world fell into endless darkness, and the same was true for Jianghai City, which should have been in daylight.

Moreover, the prosperous Jianghai City, which is usually full of lights, wine and women, is now pitch black. Facing the threat of the evil star Gross, the Jianghai City... no, the whole China, and even the whole human society, is facing the threat of extinction. So after a lapse of 15 years, the Earth Federation once again issued the highest level disaster warning, and people all over the world have now taken refuge in underground shelters.

So when Helis and Qi Yao arrived at the special forces base together, looking at the once bustling river beach from afar, it was now silent.

Seeing this scene, Qi Yao subconsciously held Helis's hand tightly because of the fear and worry in her heart.

Helis just turned his head, gently patted Qi Yao's shoulder, and said in a gentle and comforting tone: "The light of hope has not been completely extinguished!"

Qi Yao raised her head, looked at Helis's face so close to her, pursed her lips, and nodded.

"Ok!"

"Let's go!" Helis said, letting go of Qi Yao's hand, and walked towards the special forces base, and continued, "We'll be busy next!"

Looking at Helis's back, Qi Yao quickly followed him.

As it is an emergency moment, many members of the special forces have gone to the front line of the battle, or to various shelters to maintain order. However, there are still some members who are still stranded in the base. In order to continue to maintain communication between various units at this time when satellite communications have been completely cut off.

And because the special forces base itself is a highest-level shelter, many family members of the team members, mainly elderly parents or underage children of some team members, were also brought here for the convenience of care.

So after Helis and Qi Yao arrived, the isolation door leading to the special forces' underground shelter opened. As if knowing of their arrival, a woman in slightly wrinkled OL clothes ran towards Qi Yao and hugged her in her arms.

"Mother?"

Qi Yao hadn't fully reacted until he was hugged by the woman. He looked at Helis who was walking away, somewhat at a loss.

"It's good that you're back...it's good that you're back!"

Wen Yuan hugged Qi Yao tightly, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, and she kept repeating this in her mouth.

However, Helis did not say anything, nor did he stop, because there were too many things that needed to be clarified between the mother and daughter, so they needed some private space.

Just as Helis stepped into the special forces base, he was stopped by Gu Peixin who was standing in the shadows.

"stop!"

Gu Peixin had a hostile look on her face as she stood in front of Helis.

When he saw the expression on Gu Peixin's face that looked like she was going to accuse him, Helis had roughly guessed the other party's intention, so he said straight to the point: "I didn't mean to deceive classmate Qi Yao!"

"You mean making up a false identity doesn't count as cheating?"

Gu Peixin said with disdain.

"I didn't lie." Helis thought for a while and answered truthfully, "I just concealed part of the truth."

"How is that different from cheating?"

Gu Peixin asked angrily.

Helis was silent for a while, then he sighed helplessly, turned his head to look at Qi Yao who was still hugging her mother, and said, "In the beginning, I did have some selfish motives to get close to classmate Qi Yao."

"I knew you wanted to use Yaoyao!"

Gu Peixin spoke angrily to Helis again.

"Indeed!"

Helis did not deny that he had the selfish motive of using Qi Yao. In fact, from the very beginning, Helis was aiming to train Qi Yao to become an Ultra Warrior and a true Giant of Light.

Because after defeating the demon star Gross, Helis received a new mission called "Inheritor of Light".

At that time, Helis subconsciously thought that the hidden mission was to find an Ultra Warrior who could inherit Qi Fan's power of light, so he naturally chose Qi Yao.

But after going through all these things, Helis realized that the "Heir of Light" actually referred to himself, because the guy who called himself Amperla had once called him that.

However, Helis didn't understand why. Why was he the "Heir of Light"? Was it because he inherited the power of light from Randall and Leah? Or was there another hidden reason?

Since there are so few clues at present and they are very fragmented, we did not continue to investigate further.

"But I don't want to hurt, and I won't hurt classmate Qi Yao!"

Helis turned his head and looked at Gu Peixin who was blocking his way, and answered with a firm expression.

"but you……"

Gu Peixin seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Helis without hesitation.

"I am an Ultraman from the Land of Light, and I must stop the destruction of this planet!"

Having said that, Helis ignored Gu Peixin and walked past her and headed towards the depths of the special forces team.

On the way to the central control system he developed to charge the Ultra Armor, Helis once again summoned the Shining Holy Sword on his wrist. At this moment, the crystal inlaid on the Shining Holy Sword had become dim, and a shallow crack appeared on it.

"Has it really reached its limit?"

Helis took off the Shining Holy Sword, looked at the cracks on the crystal, frowned, and said with some distress.

Since the Shining Sword was a direct upgrade of the control system of the Hunter Armor, which was a replica of Hikari's knightly aura and Arber's device, after Helis conducted an in-depth study of its structure, he discovered many design flaws remaining in it.

It is for this reason that Helis wants to recreate an "Eternal Flash" tailored to his own needs based on the Shining Holy Sword and his own research.

However, Helis could no longer wait until he had thoroughly understood the design of "Eternal Flash".

So without hesitation, he took out a bracelet that looked like a pair of spread wings from his system space, with a blue and white crystal inlaid between the wings.

That was a prototype model that Helis made in order to verify some of his own conjectures and his understanding of the design drawings of the "Eternal Flash", and it possessed some of the functions of his ideal "Eternal Flash".

Now there is no other choice, Helis can only try to combine the prototype model of Eternal Flash with the damaged Shining Holy Sword to upgrade the Shining Holy Sword.

Just like that, Helis came to the central control system of the Ultra Armor. Looking at the machine in front of him that almost occupied the entire laboratory, Helis did not hesitate at all and directly connected the prototype model of Eternal Flash and the damaged Shining Holy Sword to two interfaces that were originally used to upgrade the weapons and equipment on the Ultra Armor. He was going to charge the Shining Holy Sword with the light energy of the earth and force the two to merge directly with huge energy.

"I am really becoming more and more reckless!"

Helis couldn't help but laugh at himself, thinking of his own complaints about "force can defeat skill" after he first saw the talents unlocked after the system upgrade.

However, Helis did not think much about it. He just took a deep breath, and then, with the authorization he got from Gu Wentao and West, and his identity as the main developer of the central control system, he unlocked the restrictions of the central control system and obtained the highest authority. Then, he carefully controlled the fusion of the two through the control panel.

At this point, Helis no longer cared whether he was using the technology of the Kingdom of Light or not. He carefully disassembled the Eternal Flash and the Shining Holy Sword respectively, and then connected the corresponding parts of the two according to the design drawings.

However, since the Eternal Flash is only a prototype, its related functions are not complete, and many areas are missing from the corresponding design drawings. In addition, the Shining Holy Sword on the other side is also damaged, and many parts of the circuits are broken, making it impossible to match.

So we can only try to build a connecting bridge between the two, which is a very delicate job. Its difficulty is beyond the limits of human imagination. Even though Helis is an Ultraman, he still finds it very difficult.

But at this point, no matter how difficult it was, Helis had no choice but to go ahead.

The only good news at the moment is that Helis still has the previous "Light and Shadow" mission rewards that have not been used, because the requirement of the mission is to "defeat the evil Grotos", which Helis has already completed.
