"Hahaha! You're all in now!"
A towering mechanical life form appeared before them—the mastermind behind this invasion—the Mechanical Emperor!
"You despicable scoundrel!" Ultraman Sun was furious.
"Let's fight to the death!" Ultraman Turyu also assumed a fighting stance.
"It's all in vain; you can't escape my control." The Mechanical Emperor sneered.
The next second, countless bolts of purple lightning shot out from the spatial walls, severely injuring all the Ultramen present.
"Ah—!" they screamed in agony, their bodies feeling as if they were being violently torn apart.
"You thug! Stop!" Ultraman Sun, enduring the pain, punched the Mechanical Emperor.
But he was quickly bound by countless rays of purple light.
A strange purple light shone in the eyes of the Mechanical Emperor:
"Let me tell you, all of this was exactly what I expected!"
He released himself from the restraints on Ultraman Sun, and with a single palm strike, sent him flying to his chest, instantly shattering the Sun Wheel Armor.
"You!" Ultraman Sun collapsed to the ground in agony, blood gushing out.
"Sun!" Ultraman Turyu tried to rush forward to help, but he couldn't move.
"Yes, I took advantage of the emotional bond between you," the Mechanical Emperor said coldly.
"You deliberately sent Slugs to harass and lure you deep into the front lines."
"Then I set a trap to lure you into this spatial prison fox."
"Everything is going according to plan!"
As the Mechanical Emperor spoke, he stepped on Ultraman Sun's chest: "Now, you will become my energy source!"
Chapter 224: Stop! We won't let you succeed!
"Stop! We won't let you succeed!" Ultraman Turyu roared.
"Give up your futile resistance; you are destined to fail," the Mechanical Emperor sneered.
Just then, a dazzling beam of light descended from the sky, instantly blasting the Mechanical Emperor away.
"How is this possible!" the Mechanical Emperor wailed.
A figure draped in a golden cape slowly landed, radiating a dazzling light.
"I'm here, friends."
"It's Ultraman Hope!" Ultraman Turyu was overjoyed.
"Ultraman Hope, you've finally arrived!" Ultraman Turyu exclaimed excitedly.
"Friends, let us fight against the darkness together!" Hope shines brightly in Ultraman's eyes.
"Damn it, this power seems to be beyond my expectations." The Mechanical Emperor frowned.
"Die!" It unleashed a purple lightning bolt at Ultraman Hope.
"Come on, friends, pass on your power!" Ultraman Hope said.
The Ultramen of the Land of Light joined forces, hoping that Ultraman could easily block the lightning with a wave of his hand.
"Impossible!" the Mechanical Emperor exclaimed in shock.
"Accept your punishment!" Hope Ultraman's eyes shot out golden rays, instantly destroying the Mechanical Emperor.
"We're saved!" Ultraman Space cheered.
"That was a close call." Ultraman Time and Space breathed a sigh of relief.
Ultraman Regis is seriously injured and needs rest. We hope Ultraman will use the power of light to heal him.
"Reges, take care of yourself," Ultraman Hope said gently.
"Thank you, 983, my friend," Ultraman Regis said weakly.
Seeing the two interacting intimately, Ultraman Turyu felt a pang of jealousy.
At that moment, Ultraman Regis arrived and reported: "I've found the coordinates of the Machine Emperor's base!"
"Very good, let's wipe out the remaining forces." Ultraman Turyu immediately deployed a counterattack.
Led by Ultraman Reges, the Land of Light's assault team arrived at the Mechanical Emperor's base.
This is a huge spherical building, its surface covered with turrets and defensive systems.
"Its defenses look very strong," Ultraman Time judged.
"But it doesn't matter, everyone, pass on your power to me!" Ultraman Hope said.
The Ultramen of the Land of Light once again joined forces, hoping that Ultraman would unleash a super-powerful attack to instantly destroy the outer wall.
"Go!" Ultraman Turyu was the first to rush in.
It was crawling with all sorts of mechanical life forms, blocking the attacking force.
"Get out of the way!" Ultraman Doru smashed the mecha in front of him with a single punch.
Ultraman Reges, Ultraman Time, and Ultraman Space also joined the battle.
With the help of Ultraman Hope, they fought their way into the core area.
"You're too late!" a mechanical lifeform screamed. 9
"The master has escaped!" (ahec)
"Damn it, it got away!" Ultraman Tōryū punched through the control panel. 7
"Friend, don't be discouraged." Hopefully, Ultraman will offer these gentle words of comfort. 5
Ultraman Turyu's heart skipped a beat, and he blushed as he said, "Thank you, Hope."
Their eyes met, and the air was filled with a sweet, romantic atmosphere.
The others, seeing this, awkwardly looked away.
Ultraman Regis also felt a strange sensation. 8
After capturing the base, everyone returned to the Land of Light to rest and recuperate. 8
They hope Ultraman will stay and help rebuild their home. 4
"That's great! With you here, we have even more confidence!" Ultraman Turyu said happily.
Therefore, they hoped that Ultraman would become a member of the Land of Light and live and train with everyone.
One day, Ultraman Tōryū invited Ultraman Hope to go with him to watch the sunset at a nearby crater.
"The sunset here is so beautiful," Ultraman exclaimed.
"Not as beautiful as you," Ultraman Turyu blurted out.
Both of them blushed with embarrassment.
Ultraman Tauru mustered his courage and grasped the hand of Ultraman Hope: "I like you."
Hopefully, Ultraman will respond softly, "Me too."
The two embraced and kissed in the afterglow of the setting sun.
On a hillside not far away, Ultraman Regis witnessed this scene, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
From that day on, the relationship between Ultraman Tauru and Ultraman Hope grew closer and closer.
The two often spent time together during training and frequently sneaked away for dates.
The other members of the Land of Light had reservations about this, believing that their ambiguous relationship affected the team's harmony.
Ultraman Regis especially disapproved of the two's inseparable behavior.
After a day of training, he could no longer bear it and decided to talk to Ultraman Hope.
"I hope I must talk to you."
"What's up?"
"Your relationship with Taru has seriously affected teamwork."
“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.”
“But it distracted Tau, which is dangerous.”
"Regess, are you jealous?"
"I'm just concerned about the big picture."
"I understand your thoughts, but please don't interfere with us."
The conversation between the two reached an impasse. Ultraman Turyu also sensed the unusual atmosphere.
Since that conversation, Ultraman Regis's hostility towards Ultraman Hope has become increasingly apparent.
The two often argued over trivial matters, and the team was divided into factions, creating a very tense atmosphere.
Finally, one day, the pent-up resentment erupted.
