"So the Research and Development Institute was infiltrated after all?"
Hearing this, Masaki Keigo covered his face.
He remembered it perfectly. Before leaving this universe, he had practically walked Hikari through rebuilding the entire Land of Light's security system, from its firewalls to its physical isolation layers.
Naturally, the point had been to prepare for the worst.
Yet even after all that, someone had still raided their home base?
"If they had Ultra Capsules helping them, then it all makes sense."
At that thought, Masaki Keigo spoke with considerable resignation.
As one of their inventors, he knew very well how powerful the Ultra Capsules were.
"This... was indeed our mistake."
Hearing this, Dan Moroboshi sighed. At that moment, the battle-hardened warrior's face showed nothing but undisguised exhaustion.
It was indeed a failure on the Ultra Garrison's part. They had not taken the Ultra Capsules seriously enough. "Beria is the Land of Light's most wanted criminal, and a powerful Ultra Warrior capable of rivaling the Supreme Commander in his own right.
After being infected by Reiblood's spirit body, he also gained the power to control monsters.
Now he has the Ultra Capsules and has stolen the Plasma Spark core...
I'm afraid he intends to revive his monster army, then..."
"Conquer the entire universe."
Masaki Keigo finished the sentence for him.
The evil aliens in this world pretty much all followed the same playbook.
"Yes, which is why I've already sent Mebius to find someone-a Reionics named Rei."
Hearing this, Dan Moroboshi nodded and added an explanation.
More troublesome than Beria's own combat prowess was his power to control monsters as a Reionics.
"Reio... nics?"
Masaki Keigo murmured thoughtfully. "Mm."
Dan Moroboshi nodded, then continued,
"During the years you were away, some unusual humans appeared in the universe.
They inherited Reiblood's genes
