Summoned from another world, the hero is Ultraman Zeta.

Chapter 141 A Brilliant Bloom Amidst Life and Death

After a dazzling but brief burst of light, the sky returned to its previous dark and boundless state.

The spatial rifts on the ground no longer emitted large amounts of black gas, but the surrounding environment showed no signs of recovery. The burned land and the tainted vegetation were all in a terrible and horrible state.

"Wow, Zeta is really capable. He destroyed such a big meteorite without a trace. Even I can't do that."

Without a shred of hesitation, Shin stood atop the hill and praised Zeta as he looked into the distance.

"What's wrong, Zhaoyu? Shouldn't you smile when you see the great hero's heroic victory?"

Xin's deliberate teasing annoyed Zhao Yu. She didn't want to pay attention to anything Xin said. Whether it was Bogaru or the otherworldly monster in front of her, Xin was the one secretly manipulating things behind the scenes. She was the culprit behind all this trouble.

Zeta's relief at completely eliminating the meteorite threat hadn't lasted long before the fear of the otherworldly monster surged back into his heart. Zhaoyu rushed to the top of the mountain ahead and shouted loudly, "The otherworldly monster is attacking!"

"Zeta, watch out behind you!"

Zhao Yu's desperate shout prompted Zeta to turn around and check on her. Zeta then swung his sword-like hand backward, slicing apart a cloud of black energy that contained nothing.

Realizing something was wrong, Zeta retreated repeatedly, trying to take flight to dodge, but the black aura struck first, a shadow scythe suddenly attacking from within and hooking straight at Zeta.

Zeta, whose energy has been severely depleted, is unable to perform many skill-based activities. He can barely fly now. The weakening of his physical strength and the fatigue of his mind make it impossible for Zeta to focus on combat. Moreover, the unknown movements of the Wolf Knights and the unknown whereabouts of Tyrant make Zeta's situation even more dangerous.

Zeta's palm flashed and struck repeatedly, repelling the flying scythe and turning it into black mist. However, the mist did not dissipate in place but floated into the air. The surrounding darkness made it impossible for Zeta to see the direction the black mist was heading or what was happening around him.

The giant of light, shining brightly all over, is the most dazzling existence in the darkness. He is the best spiritual support for the victims, and also the most foolish and plump prey in the eyes of the hunters.

Born from darkness, Tyrant is accompanied by despair, wielding shadows as its blade. Darkness is merely its cloak, and silence its bait. It moves ceaselessly in the darkness, approaching its prey that it thinks is safe and delivering the final blow.

Tyrant's gaze lit up from behind. Zeta tried to dodge but couldn't raise his hand in time. The hidden force whipped the tail, causing Zeta's abdomen to lash out, causing excruciating pain. Tyrant took off and leaped after Zeta in the direction he had gone. While chasing, Tyrant shot out an iron whip that wrapped around Zeta's arm. From then on, Zeta had no chance to escape.

Dragging Zeta through the air, Tyrant flew high into the sky and quickly pulled back his iron whip. The whip lashed out at high speed, accompanied by Zeta's painful screams, but Tyrant paid no attention and simply increased the force of his whipping.

With a leap and a spin, the prey was tossed about in the air. The final powerful throw slammed the giant of light heavily onto the ground. Even the body of the Ultra Warrior could not withstand the earth-shattering torment. In the center of the collapsed earth was the hero suffering unspeakable pain. The purple light of Gamma Future dissipated, and the red crystal light on Zeta's chest flashed rapidly.

"Zeta, no!"

"Don't rush, Zhaoyu. If you're in a hurry, you'll have to wait in line."

Zhao Yu took another step forward, but Xin grabbed her arm. This time, Zhao Yu's body was not out of control as before, but Xin's dangerous pressure still made Zhao Yu dare not move easily.

Zeta mustered his last strength and placed it on the crystal in his chest, trying to pull Haruki out of danger. Zeta could no longer fight; he had to use his last hope…

"None of you can escape!"

A hammer strike, descending from the sky and transforming darkness into light, hurtled towards Zeta. Tyrant would not give his opponents any chance, just as they had done to him before.

The blade pierced through Zeta's body, and the giant of light's body vanished like a bubble, revealing the tyrannical monster—Tyrant—who had caused all of this standing in its center.

The desolate and dark land was in disarray. The severely injured and unconscious Yaohui lay on the ground, and the exhausted Yongyi Pure Crystal was buried in the broken soil. In the distance was the defeated Wolf Knights, whose wolf lord was half-trampled in the ground by Tyrant.

The battle ended with the destruction of Bogaru and the victory of Tyrant.

Despite the complete victory, Tyrant showed no joy and stood there blankly after losing its target.

Tyrant absorbed the surrounding darkness to replenish its energy, neither roaring nor leaping, like a juggling animal that had finished its performance and just wanted to be alone in peace for a while.

"You bastard, what are you going to do to Haruki and Zeta! If you want to fight, fight me, come on!"

Belial Twilight hurriedly ran out of the spatial rift. He sensed that the aura of light energy had weakened, and the outside was eerily quiet. His primal instinct for danger sounded an alarm for Belial Twilight.

Purple otherworldly flames burned on the blade, Belial Twilight's eyes gleamed menacingly, but Tyrant remained unmoved, completely disregarding Belial Twilight as a threat.

"Looking down on me? Are you tired of living... Wait, what's this?"

The roar was burning in his heart. As soon as the power of Belial Twilight surged up, it encountered an unusually difficult resistance. An unidentified long strip that crawled out from the spatial rift clung to Belial Twilight's body, drawing its magic power and pulling it back to the deepest part of the spatial rift.

"Let me go, you disgusting thing! I'm busy with important matters and don't have time to waste on you!"

"A pretentious toy, yet it has learned to care about others."

After a soft sigh, Xin waved his hand, and more chaotic strands emerged from the spatial rift, wrapping around Belial Twilight's entire body, rendering it unable to utter a word or see any light.

The last hope was also pulled into the spatial rift and disappeared without a trace. Zhao Yu's heart was on the verge of collapse. The combined attack of the Wolf Lord and the Wolf Knights failed to harm the otherworldly monster in the slightest. After stopping the catastrophic celestial phenomenon, Zeta was taken advantage of by the otherworldly monster and was seriously injured, his body shattered...

Zhao Yu witnessed the entire process, but she was unable to offer any help.

"Are you sad, Zhaoyu? How about I tell you something that interests you to cheer you up?"

Shin spoke to Zhao Yu with a half-smile, his posture completely leaning towards Zhao Yu, as if he could catch him immediately if Zhao Yu fell.

"Stop pretending! What do you want?! Haven't you humiliated me enough?! You disgusting monster!"

"Humans are so self-righteous. On one hand, they criticize others for their stereotypical language, and on the other hand, they keep labeling others. What can I say to you?"

The angrier Zhaoyu became, the more Xin looked forward to her. Xin longed to see what Zhaoyu's tears would taste like after she completely broke down.

"But it is precisely because of this that human emotions are more colorful and more delicious!"

"You who are in dire straits yet still hold hope, you who dare not take a step forward yet cry out for help, you who say you want to help but hate the help others give you, it really makes me both troubled and fascinated, Zhaoyu."

“I am a monster of negative energy. Your fear and hatred of monsters are our food. We are born from darkness, live by feeding on chaos, and the twisted emotions in the hearts of humans are our greatest energy source.”

Her tone was filled with pride. Xin showed no inferiority or arrogance because of her identity. She saw herself as a human being, which allowed her to better understand human emotions and control them like a human being.

Dancing in the face of disaster, singing in the darkness, with a rich young lady as the only audience, and tyrannical monsters as the most adorable background accompaniment at this moment.

"Your target is humans, so why did you keep harming the monsters of Wolf State before?"

"Finally recovered, Zhaoyu? She can speak normally now."

As Zhao Yu gradually came to understand Xin's unconventional arguments, she found them unbelievable. After understanding Xin's motives, she felt a strange sense of familiarity with her.

"That's because humans are selfish and cowardly. Once they are hurt, they hide and dare not make a sound. But it's completely different when it comes to the harm done to external things. Humans love to comment on the tragedies of external things, and just by talking, they can create contradictions among themselves, start their mutual attacks, and keep expanding them."

"The wolf-beasts that humans interact with most closely on Wolf Wilds are the perfect bait to trigger the outburst of negative emotions in humans. The wolf-beasts are so powerful and enviable. Just one glance at the usually majestic knight wolf in its current miserable state is enough for those humans to remember it for a lifetime!"

When the letter's back-and-forth motion ended, Zhao Yu was unable to deny the letter's words.

Why did you tell me so much?

"It's a very simple principle. The taboo of controlling negative energy is not to generate negative emotions. In my opinion, hiding things from my benefactor is a kind of guilt. I don't want to 'get burned' later."

"I was the one who controlled all of that: the Golden Eagle Demon's attack, the Black and White Beast's attack, and the destruction of humanity's homeland by monsters time and time again; Bogaru's escape, the Wolf Knight's crushing defeat, and the monsters that claimed to protect humanity couldn't even protect themselves."

"Everything should have gone smoothly, if it weren't for you. But what's interesting is that you, who have been getting in my way all along, have become the person I admire most. Isn't that strange? As long as you're human, you'll always encounter these kinds of strange things."

The letter's words sent a chill down Zhao Yu's spine. The culprit who had been causing disasters, the supernatural being who manipulated calamities and instilled panic, were all watching her closely. And the most terrifying monster was lurking right beside her...

Once again, he approached suddenly, placing both hands on Zhao Yu's cheeks and kneading them forcefully to deform her skin, forcing Zhao Yu to stare directly at him.

"Human life is full of mystery, gradually decaying in peace, yet blooming brilliantly between life and death."

"Your kindness, as warm as the sun, has repeatedly filled me with its fragrance, making me so hungry, yet I have to endure it, because I am waiting, I am praying..."

"How I long to experience the devastating, heartbreaking beauty of your strength turning into despair, Zhaoyu! It would be something I would savor for the rest of my life!"

Under Zhao Yu's watchful eyes, the beautifully dressed monster controller Xin gradually changed her appearance, transforming into a disheveled woman covered in mud but dressed in clean white clothes.

The letter refers to the white-clad woman that Zhao Yu had always wanted to help.
