" Daigo? Rena?"
Standing outside the spatial portal, Xiao Tian was exasperated. Why did that sound so familiar?
Xiao Tian stepped into the spatial gate, and soon half of his body was standing in the city.
Pedestrians on the street stopped in their tracks, casting bewildered and frightened glances.
"Holy crap! Am I dreaming?!"
"Shin! What did I just see?"
Passersby were excited, curious, or even frightened and called the police. Xiao Tian remained calm, his face full of black lines, and walked out of the spatial portal.
As the portal behind them disappeared, someone nearby screamed in alarm, the loud enough to send the sound-activated fountain at the tourist site soaring into the sky.
The crowd dispersed like birds and beasts, and traffic jams appeared.
Xiao Tian's lips twitched; his entrance was indeed a bit too flashy.
"Disappeared!"
Some people stared in disbelief as a living person suddenly vanished before their eyes!
"A ghost!"
"Where did this ghost come from in Da Bai! It must be an alien! Call the police!"
Inside the Earth Planetary Space Defense Bureau headquarters, a GUTS Flying Swallow fighter jet shot out and soared into the blue sky.
" Rena, have you confirmed the coordinates?"
" Daigo, the location is set."
"Okay." Daigo said solemnly, "I hope he's a kind alien."
" Daigo, Rena, return to base immediately!" came the communication from headquarters.
"Captain, what's going on?" Daigo and Rena asked, looking confused.
"We'll talk about it when we get back." The voice of GUTS captain Megumi Iruma, was extremely grave.
Inside the GUTS's base.
Captain Megumi Iruma Seiichi Munakata, Masami Horii, and others, armed with firearms, warily locked onto the mysterious man who sat calmly and relaxed in a chair.
"Alien, what is your purpose in coming here?"
"Hehehe, fellow human beings, don't get excited." Xiao Tian said with a grin.
"Alien, who's your fellow human?!" The vice-captain's expression was icy. They had encountered many aliens, many of whom were disguised humans, their true forms incredibly ugly and disgusting.
"Hey, young man, don't get excited." Xiao Tian produced a glass of his own homemade Martial Soul drink—iced Cola.
Do you have plastic straws? Paper straws, though environmentally friendly, don't make drinking cola as Cola.
Megumi Iruma and the others exchanged bewildered glances. This alien was quite fashionable; he'd just arrived and already had a popular drink like Coca -Cola, and he even knew about plastic pipes and environmental protection.
Before long, the Horii brought back a bag of plastic straws.
"Alien, you don't look like you just arrived on our planet at all. Wasn't that you who appeared in the portal?" Horii asked with some doubt.
"Satellites were unable to capture photos of the space gate location; according to intelligence, the cell phones of people taking pictures at the scene only captured a wisp of air."
Megumi Iruma frowned. "Alien, I've brought you the straw. What's your purpose?"
Xiao Tian took a sip of Cola and chuckled, "It was indeed me who came out of the spatial portal, but I was indeed here a long time ago, probably tens of millions of years ago."
"Millions of years ago? Aliens, you really dare to lie! You're just spouting nonsense!" The Shinjo team members couldn't help but laugh.
Megumi Iruma frowned, watching Xiao Tian's practiced way of Cola, half believing and half doubting.
"Fine, don't believe me then. I'll tell you why I'm here once your two teammates arrive."
Upon arriving on this planet, Xiao Tian used his great supernatural powers to deduce the secrets of heaven and obtained sufficient information in an instant.
Daigo has only been with the GUTS for a month or two. Although he has been on some missions and encountered a few weak aliens, he is not yet the man who can obtain the power of light and become the ancient Ultraman Tiga.
Xiao Tian's cryptic manner prevented Megumi Iruma and the others from pressing him for answers. Not only were they terrified that even their previous use of firearms—laser beam weapons capable of killing enemies within 100 meters in just 0.1 seconds—had failed to harm Xiao Tian, they could only stare at Xiao Tian with growing fear.
After a long while, Daigo and Rena returned.
"Captain, who is this?"
When Daigo and Rena returned, they saw their teammates looking serious, holding firearms and locking onto Xiao Tian, while Xiao Tian, who was being targeted, was casually drinking a Cola.
"Alien, our two team members are back. You don't need to keep us in suspense any longer, do you?" Megumi Iruma stared at Xiao Tian.
Daigo and Rena's expressions changed drastically. An alien!
The two men quickly drew their firearms and aimed at Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian placed the Cola cup on the table and stretched.
"Alright, now that everyone's here, let me explain the purpose of my visit."
Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others tensed up, their expressions becoming extremely tense and their hearts heavy.
"First of all, I have to tell you a terrifying fact: in the future, one giant monster after another will appear on this planet, and strange phenomena will appear one after another. Some of these monsters are native, and some come from space, so you must be prepared to eliminate them."
Upon hearing Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others frowned.
"Aliens, are you a prophet? Or is this what you're about to do? Are you going to conquer this planet?" Daigo asked Xiao Tian.
"Hehehe..." Xiao Tian looked at Daigo, the protagonist of this world, with great interest.
"As I said before, I lived here millions of years ago; this planet is my home."
"Hometown?" Megumi Iruma and the others did not entirely believe it.
Snap!
Xiao Tian snapped his fingers, and the Law of the Undying Deva Path took effect, controlling all the computer screens in the base and displaying a video.
Megumi Iruma and the others saw a video showing a group of giant Giant of Light fighting against many giant monsters. Then there was a scene of Giant of Light fighting against Dark Giant Dark Giant. At the end, the Dark Giant sat high on a throne, looking down on the countless Dark Giant under his command. All around him were Dark Giant whose light had dimmed and turned into stone statues.
On the level below the throne, to the left is a voluptuous dark giantess surrounded by dark runes, and a woman named Megumi Iruma looks somewhat familiar, as if they've seen her in some ancient records. To the right are two Dark Giant with red and blue runes on their bodies, thus forming the Four Heavenly Kings.
The final scene sent chills down the spines of Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others.
The scene shifts, and the four giants are kneeling on one knee before a human youth. This human youth looks exactly like Xiao Tian, Cola in the base.
Megumi Iruma and the others looked terrified, and only then did they realize Xiao Tian's identity.
"You're actually Dark Giant from the ancient times!" Megumi Iruma's expression changed drastically.
Unconsciously, ancient family traditions were recalled.
Her family was extraordinary, possessing some unknown information passed down through generations, including information about Dark Giant.
For millions of years, the Dark Giant Overlord this planet, but then mysteriously disappeared.
"Is darkness about to engulf this planet?!" Megumi Iruma. She found it hard to believe that the planet's current technological capabilities were sufficient to destroy these Dark Giant.
"Giants." Daigo was lost in thought. He hadn't been sleeping well these past few days, dreaming of several giants.
"Hehehe, everyone, please don't get excited."
Xiao Tian yawned and said jokingly, "Once upon a time, I was the king of darkness, invincible in the world, but that was too boring, so I went for a spin in the universe and offended some powerful forces. As a result, the planet I was born on was discovered by those forces."
"My men are currently intercepting the powerful figures from those forces, but some will inevitably slip through the net. This planet needs a bloody transformation. I am disappointed by the current peace and tranquility of this world and by your slow pace of technological development."
Megumi Iruma, Daigo, Rena, and the others felt their scalps tingle and their hair stand on end.
If what Xiao Tian said is true, then their planet is truly in grave danger!
Xiao Tian smiled wickedly, " Megumi Iruma, Daigo, you two better guard this planet well. Right now, I'm just an avatar, so I can't help you much, nor do I want to. This planet still has some special assets; you'll have to discover and develop them yourselves."
Megumi Iruma frowned and said, "Giant, so you're saying our planet has been targeted by a powerful force in the universe simply because of your problem?"
"That's right, you want to blame me, is that it?"
The chilling aura emanating from Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others with terror, making them feel as if they had lost control of their limbs.
Their lives could be taken at any moment!
Xiao Tian chuckled, "The universe is cruel; might makes right. From now on, the game begins. You have no choice: either have your planet destroyed by me, so some petty forces won't use it to threaten me, or protect it and eliminate any survivors."
"If we can't even eliminate a few stragglers, I might as well consider destroying your civilization and planet." Here, Xiao Tian was obviously bluffing; in fact, everything he said was just a bluff.
However, for Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others from the GUTS, it was a game of certain death! There was no way to resist! They clearly realized that the hourglass of the planet's destruction had begun to move.
Megumi Iruma and the others regained control of their bodies; they were all pale-faced and breathing heavily.
"From now on, this avatar of mine will remain here to observe your actions using a point system. I hope you can give me a perfect report card. Also, fearing you won't take it seriously, I've decided to destroy a Jupiter first, to show you what I'm capable of."
Snap!
Xiao Tian snapped his fingers to finish and laughed, "All done. Get me some ice; iced Cola is the only way to really kick in."
Megumi Iruma and the others frowned. Jupiter was destroyed? Were they kidding? If Jupiter was destroyed, their planet would probably be affected too, wouldn't it?
To verify Xiao Tian's words, the members of the GUTS made phone calls and used computers to capture images of Jupiter, light-years away, via satellites in outer space.
Theoretically speaking, even if Jupiter Destruction, they won't see it for many years, since the speed of light is limited.
"Isn't Jupiter perfectly intact?"
"No! Something has changed inside Jupiter!"
" Yazumi, what did you find?! Tell me quickly!" Horii asked the team's computer genius, the GUTS's communications officer.
"Captain, look! Jupiter is really heading towards Destruction!"
Megumi Iruma, Daigo, and the others were horrified.
Was all of this simply because of Xiao Tian's snap of his fingers?
"Hey? Aren't you going to prepare ice for me? Then I'm going to give your service enthusiasm rating a bad score on this report card." Xiao Tian said impatiently.
Megumi Iruma turned around and quickly smiled, "Giant, please wait a moment, I'll be right there."
"Don't call me that, just call me Di Shitian."
