The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2026: The Changing Sphia
However, the blow did not land, because Lightning Darambir finally "remembered" that it still had a thick tail to swing.

When his heavy body made it impossible for him to get up quickly with clumsy movements, the pain-stricken Lightning Darambier finally launched a tail attack in anger.

The huge tail, like a dead branch, swung vigorously under the pull of powerful muscles. The tip cut through the air at an extremely fast speed, making a sharp explosion, and hit Tiga's right shoulder heavily, causing violent sparks and a thunderous sound.

The huge kinetic energy caused Tiga to stagger, and his huge body involuntarily tilted to the left. The Eight-Point Light Wheel in his hand slipped out of his hand due to the tearing pain and fell to the ground.

Although he was attacked suddenly, Tiga reacted quickly. He immediately moved his left hand and supported the ground with his palm to relieve some of the impact. Then he rolled on the ground to avoid Lightning Daranbil's second tail attack, while also leaving the attack range of Lightning Daranbil's long tail.

After rolling, he immediately stood up, then quickly twisted his waist to turn his body around. Then he saw Lightning Darambir had crawled up from the ground and was taking small steps to turn himself around.

Obviously, although the stone shell has excellent defensive power and is activated by the energy of the Sphia sphere, its flexibility is still too poor compared to biological cells. As a result, even a simple action like turning around makes Lightning Darambir look slower than a turtle.

"As expected, Unit-01 has many problems, and it is impossible for its attributes to be off the charts."

Tiga couldn't help but complain in his heart that Lightning Darambill's strength was not weak, and could even be considered outstanding among many Earth monsters.

But the problem is that its flexibility is too poor. Its body is mainly made of Martian soil, rocks and turret debris, which are not flexible materials.

Let's put it this way, if a person puts himself in a cardboard box, the movement of his limbs will be restricted, but Lightning Darambir is now wearing a stone shell and an iron frame. Even if the Sphia Sphere has activated the rigid material in some way, judging from the results, the effect is not very good.

This must be related to the first time the Sphia sphere came into contact with Martian soil and rocks. There was no information to refer to and it was all done by trial and error. If, starting from a blank slate, they could produce incredible materials for the first time, that would be truly incredible.

Obviously, the Sphia Sphere is not the protagonist, nor does it have incredible luck, so it naturally cannot perform incredibly well on the first try. Therefore, Lightning Darambiel's 'Sphia Unit-01' appears to be very crude, and is not the Unit-01 that has incredible performance and is sealed like in many movies and animations.

"This thing should have some research value."

Tiga was calculating in his mind. Although he was not a scientist, he had been influenced by science for so long that he had acquired some scientific literacy. When he saw something new, his first reaction was, "Maybe I can study it."

He himself doesn't understand it, but he knows someone who can understand it.

Even if Horii doesn't have enough knowledge, then Hikaru should be able to do it.

As the head of the Science and Technology Bureau of the Kingdom of Light, Hikari must have seen, no, even dissected all kinds of monsters.

Ordinary monsters probably wouldn't arouse much interest in him, but what about the Sphia synthetic beast?
This ability to change the properties of objects and turn soil into the shell of a monster is rare even in the multiverse.

With this plan in mind, he raised his arms high and crossed them in front of his forehead, causing the diamond-shaped crystal to emit a flaming red light, which quickly burned all over Tiga's body, dyeing Tiga's body the most brilliant red, almost covering the sunset and afterglow in the sky.

Ultraman Tiga Powerful Type makes a stunning appearance!
By the time Tiga completed his form transformation, Lightning Darambir had also turned around, staring at Tiga in front of him with his five bright orange eyes. At the same time, the muzzle-shaped luminous body on his chest was rapidly increasing in brightness. It was obvious that he was accumulating energy and was preparing to use the cannon on his chest to attack Tiga.

just
"I won't let you succeed this time."

Tiga has started running, and in three or five steps he has increased his speed to the fastest. At the beginning, the powerful type of Tiga's running speed was only Mach 1, but now, after experiencing so many ups and downs and gaining so much energy fusion blessing, Tiga's powerful type's running speed has reached nearly Mach 2 due to the strong muscle pull.

Running at full speed, one can cover a distance of five to six hundred meters per second. At this time, the distance between Tiga and Lightning Daranbil was less than a thousand meters. Therefore, including the acceleration time, it only took two or three seconds for Tiga to rush in front of Lightning Daranbil.

The raised silver iron fist had accumulated super-high-temperature Dilasium light particles on the way, which wrapped around the fist body. With tremendous force, it hammered hard into the chest of Lightning Darambir and hit the gun barrel that was ready to fire.

boom!
The energy in the fist exploded, and the violent shock wave bombarded Lightning Darambir's body and entered the interior of the energy cannon. The scorching flames detonated the stored energy, causing a bigger and stronger explosion.

A raging flame erupted from Lightning Daranbir's chest, and the thick smoke was mixed with a large amount of debris, including reddish-brown soil and rocks as well as silver-white metal.

As a result, Tiga was also knocked back several steps by the shock wave. Looking again, there was a big hole blown in Lightning Daranbil's chest, which was almost half the size of Lightning Daranbil's chest, revealing a unique silver-white color inside.

It was a deformed Sphia sphere. Its originally oval body had sprouted and grown into a tree, with roots extending into its legs and branches extending into its arms. The core had become elongated and penetrated into its head through its neck.

This is not synthesis at all, it's just a shell.

It really looks like Unit-01. From the outside to the inside, it exudes a strong sense of "make do". It gives people the feeling that it will be used as long as it can be used, and then slowly optimized.

"."

It turns out that the world is just a makeshift team. It looks glamorous and bright, but I wonder how much straw is filled inside.

Anyway, after seeing the situation inside the Lightning Darambill, Tiga's impression of the Sphia Sphere as "high-end" suddenly became "low".

No wonder Lightning Darambir looks so mighty and majestic, with a hard shell and weapons all over his body, but he behaves like a novice who has just started playing the game. Let alone smooth combos, it's good enough that he can use his skills clearly.

Therefore, either the Sphia sphere that came this time was just a scout, not a "special forces soldier", with few combat skills and low proficiency; or the Sphia sphere was not suitable for the Martian environment and could not perfectly activate the Martian soil and rocks, just like the axle surface is not smooth, so there is naturally a strong resistance when it rotates.

No matter from which aspect, Lightning Darambir's performance cannot be said to be very good, and the fusion of the Sphia sphere inside is not very thorough.

What is the cause of all this?
Tiga had many questions in his mind, but no one could answer them in a short time. If he wanted to get the answers, he had better keep the "sample" in front of him. After all, it was "Unit-01". Although it had many flaws, it contained the designer's "wonderful ideas", from which he could get a glimpse of the designer's thoughts and the effects he wanted to achieve.

"Then try to preserve it as much as possible."

With a decision in his mind, Tiga stopped retreating and immediately stepped forward. After taking a few quick steps, he raised his leg and kicked Lightning Darambir's intact chest.

Yes, it's intact!
The huge trauma caused to Lightning Daranbir by Tiga's electric fist and energy explosion was healed in just a few breaths. The huge wound on Lightning Daranbir's chest was visibly wriggling and healing as Tiga retreated. It was like water. As soon as a bowl of it was scooped away, the surrounding water immediately rushed in to fill the gap and restore it to its 'original state'.

Therefore, Tiga's kick was solid, with a force of tens of thousands of tons, hitting Lightning Daranbil at a speed of over a hundred meters. The kinetic potential energy it brought was so strong that Lightning Daranbil staggered backwards.

Without waiting for Lightning Daranbir to steady himself, Tiga took another step forward, shifting his center of gravity forward, and then used his shoulder as a collision angle to hit Lightning Daranbir hard, creating bright sparks and knocking Lightning Daranbir to the ground. His huge body smashed into the ground like a landslide, causing the earth to crack and collapse immediately.

"Let you be the first one to be used."

Instead of chasing, Tiga took two steps back, then raised his arms and crossed them in front of him, allowing the colorful timer on his chest to emit dazzling light and gather in Tiga's hands.

Then Tiga stretched out his arms and raised them upwards, releasing two golden rays from his hands, flying towards the lightning Darambir and stopping above it, spreading out quickly. In just a few breaths, a golden circle was formed, and as Tiga input more energy, the area continued to expand.

When the thin golden disc expanded large enough to cover Lightning Darambir, Tiga immediately moved his arms, put his hands together, and then pressed down.

The thin circle emitting golden light immediately fell down and hit Lightning Darambir who was trying to get up from the ground, and then,
Lightning Dharambir disappeared.

The golden round thin light shield smashed into the ground, shattering pieces of earth and rocks and splashing a thin cloud of dust. The Lightning Darambir, which was originally lying on the ground like a raised mountain range, disappeared in full view of everyone. The scene was as magical as a magic trick.

call!
Only then did Tiga slowly lower his arms and looked down at the colored timer on his chest, which had begun to flash red lights.

Sealing techniques really consume a lot of energy.

It was just an Ultra Cross Barrier for single use, but it consumed more than 60% of Tiga's energy. No wonder when the Ultra Brothers used the Final Cross Barrier to seal the negative energy of the Yawa people, they drained themselves to the point where they didn't even have enough energy for transformation.

If you can still destroy it later, just blow it up.

Tiga thought to himself that this time he used it, firstly because he really wanted to try out this new skill he learned in the Kingdom of Light, and secondly because he wanted to preserve the Sphiamon Unit-01 and ask Hikaru to study it to see if he could get some useful information.

In the future, unless it is a particularly novel monster, it will definitely be blasted into pieces with light. This not only saves time and effort, but also saves energy compared to sealing techniques.

why not.

As he thought about it, Tiga raised his right arm, clenched his right fist, and placed it on the diamond-shaped crystal on his forehead, causing the clear and transparent crystal to shine brightly. He then shot a beam of light into the sky, which disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It was the Ultra Signature that he also learned in the Land of Light, and it was given to Hikari, focusing on introducing the magic and characteristics of the Sphia synthesizer. It should arouse Hikari's interest, and then he can take it away for research.

If he doesn't want it, then he can only release Lightning Dharambir and blow it to pieces.

In any case, Tiga would definitely not hand over the complete or even large piece of Lightning Darambir to TPC. Not only was TPC's scientific research capabilities not as good as those of the Science and Technology Bureau, but also because this was Sphia. What if it was left too intact and came back to life?

The Science and Technology Bureau are all Ultramen after all, so they can always put up a good fight and hold out until the Space Guard comes to support them. However, the scientists of TPC are pure humans, and it would be a massacre against Sphia.

If scientists suffer losses because of this, it would be a serious sin.

Tiga didn't want to take the blame, not to mention things like Sphia, which was a bit beyond the scope of the current TPC, ten blocks beyond Zilda Gas.

The monster had been defeated, and Tiga's mission was completed, so he turned back into a human being directly.

With his arms crossed in front of him, the colorful timer glowed, and his huge body was divided into billions of light points, which quickly dissipated under the afterglow of the setting sun and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

One of the rays of light fell on the dark red ground, condensing into the figure of Qianye Cheng. At this time, the sun had set, and the only remaining ray of light shone into Qianye Cheng's eyes, making Qianye Cheng look up involuntarily. What he saw were the ruins under the setting sun.

The whole city was filled with gunpowder smoke, silver wreckage, hideous ruins, and collapsed buildings.
Although it was only seven or eight minutes from the appearance of Sphia to the disappearance of Tiga, the damage caused to Mars City would be difficult to make up for even in seven or eight months.

Construction has always been much more difficult than destruction, and monsters and aliens can destroy even faster than a bulldozer. Just a group of Sphia spheres can cause such great damage to the city of Mars in such a short time.

It is hard to imagine how long the city of Mars can hold out if a large number of Sphia spheres appear.

This is an unknown, but the answer seems to be certain.

Mars is the bridgehead for mankind to move towards the universe. Destroying the Mars base is equivalent to stopping mankind's steps towards the universe. This is probably the reason why the Sphia Sphere attacked Mars first.
