Chapter 23. The Good-Doing Boss Jin, the Murderer and Arsonist, Lops
Monster cards, also known as Monster cards, are a wonderful product that combines Jin Yi's creativity and Belial's intellect.
Although Belial is very skilled at using a stick, he is not a brainless gorilla. In the Ultraman Geed series, Belial, the boss who lost all his subordinates, once borrowed from Ultraman Hikari's Ultra Capsule and made some "minor innovations" to create the Villain Capsule.
This shows that Beria was also quite capable in scientific research, and his cultural level was at least high enough to understand Hikari's papers.
The monster cards were the result of a compromise between Jin Yi and Belial. Belial, who was wielding the Ultimate Battle Device and sweeping across the land, actually disliked these foreign items. However, Jin Yi was tired of playing with numerical monsters and wanted to try out the mechanics. After some persuasion, both sides gave in.
While Belial was conducting research, Jin Yi would take some time to let Belial's consciousness roam freely, but of course, the reins couldn't be loosened.
The first monster card was taken from Zack, Jin Yi's most loyal subordinate.
The ability is the innate skill of the Zarab aliens—disguise.
As the saying goes, when you're out in the world, you give yourself your own identity and rights, and Jin Yi deeply agrees with this.
To be successful in the Ultraman Tiga universe, one needs to have multiple identities. In Director Kim's vision, one must maintain a good relationship with the GUTS team through at least one identity. Belial's true identity must never be exposed.
What if one day a crossover movie comes out, and street thug Zero comes to this universe, summons a dozen Ultra Gangsters to team up and beat up the movie's villain, and then Zero pats Tiga on the shoulder?
"Wow! Tiga's got some skills, buddy. Who did you train with?"
"Beria".
"Who is Belial?!?!"
This kind of disastrous ending is just too funny.
This shows how important a vest/account is!
The philanthropic boss, Mr. Jin, is a man of many virtues, yet he commits countless misdeeds!
"Pretty impressive."
Jin Yi looked down at his gleaming gold breastplate, shook his hand, and seemed quite satisfied.
"It's just so-so, don't waste your time, kid."
Even though Darklops and Zero don't have the same face, and Belial doesn't know who Zero is, seeing their similar figures and attire still ignited a nameless anger within Belial.
"Yes, yes, let's go now!"
------------
"Eeya!"
“Guaaaa!”
Birds of a feather flock together. Perhaps it was the villainous appeal of Dark Lops' face that made Jin Yi's journey so fruitful after only half an hour of flying.
On the desolate planet, Jin Yi stepped on the alien's chest, bent down, and carefully examined the sneaky fellow.
Covered in blue stripes, with an ugly face, yet daring to sport a double ponytail hairstyle, its identity is already obvious.
"This face looks familiar... I remember now, you're an Ilud."
Jin Yi carefully reviewed the Ultraman Tiga storyline.
The Iluds are villains who appear later in Ultraman Tiga. The entire race shares a single brain, exhibiting a hive mentality. Their method of expansion is to seize the bodies of other races and assimilate them into the Iluds.
After all, they're Iluds (people from the same path). (This is a pun, so please laugh politely.)
However, his combat power is indeed extremely weak, consistently ranking among the bottom five villains in Ultraman Tiga's saga.
When Jin Yi was tracking Jeep No. 3's trajectory, he found that the guy was acting suspiciously and definitely had ill intentions. Daring to target Boss Jin's business, you little brat, you've already met your doom!
The first strike cleaved through the hull of the tracking spaceship, the second strike sent it crashing down onto the desolate planet, stepping directly on the Ilud's body.
"Spare me, sir!"
The Ilud pleaded for mercy.
"I ask, you answer."
Jin Yi didn't want to waste any more words, so he increased the pressure with his heel. The alien under his feet contorted in pain, but dared not groan.
"Yes...yes..."
"Have you ever seen the Sphia lifeform? The white sphere that can assimilate inorganic matter and combine to create a gigantic monster?"
"No, no, no..."
"Um?!"
Lying through your teeth deserves punishment!
The force of his heel increased again, almost piercing through the alien's chest.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The Iluds hurriedly responded.
"About a few days ago, we detected a signal from an unfamiliar spaceship, so we dispatched a reconnaissance vessel. But the unfamiliar spaceship suddenly veered off course, leaving us completely baffled. And then, sir..."
"So, there's no answer I'm looking for. Well then, I'll keep you here..."
"No, sir! Yes, yes, yes!"
The alien beneath their feet hurriedly begged for mercy.
"We Iluds are endowed with a unique talent: we can share our thoughts and memories with other races. If you, sir, wish to find clues, perhaps..."
"Oh?"
Seeing that this terrifying enemy did not object, the Ilud captive grew bolder, and snake-like tentacles emerged from his palm as he spoke obsequiously.
"Just reach out and touch it..."
"Oh, is that so?"
Before he could finish speaking, Belial had already firmly grasped the Ilud's tentacles in his hand.
This move delighted the Iluds, who were hive creatures. If they could assimilate such a powerful warrior, wouldn't they be able to roam freely in the universe in the future?
The moment the tentacles touch the skin, a mental connection is established. The Ilud's main brain then uses this connection as a bridge to erode the infected person's mind, erase their brain, and transform them into a superior Ilud warrior.
Unfortunately, the other end of the connection was not a lamb to the slaughter, but a demon, a demon powerful enough to devour their entire race!
"Beria, where the hell have you been?"
Belial let out a cold laugh in his mind, and ominous dark matter flowed upwards, along with malevolent thoughts of destruction and slaughter, pouring into the Ilud's main brain. Jin Yi's lips curled into a cold smile—Hive Mind? It's nothing but a tattered fishing net in the face of Belial's mental pollution.
"Oh, oh, no, it's so dark, there's too much, it's going to spoil..."
These cosmic bumpkins have never seen anything like it; how could they possibly rival the Galactic Emperor Belial? They're like ants trying to shake a tree—utterly overestimating their own abilities!
The screams of the Ilud suddenly turned into hundreds of overlapping voices, and its pupils reflected the collapsing mainframe network: dark energy was eroding along the mental connections, and countless Ilud twisted into ashes like burning paper dolls.
With its last shred of clarity, the mainframe used its last strength to sever its connection with Belial, and the Illud people beneath Belial's feet also stopped breathing at the same time.
He was originally a puppet of the mastermind, a worker bee sent out to scout. It was only natural that he would be abandoned after the mission failed.
However, the actions just now also revealed the location of the mainframe's hiding place: the planet right beneath our feet.
"Hmph, trying to escape?!"
While the Iluds' main brain is indeed enormous, it is but a drop in the ocean compared to the size of the planet, which is too desolate and extremely difficult to search.
But Jin Yi didn't want to search, nor did he need to.
The Ultimate Battle Device had quietly appeared in Belial's palm, golden lightning coiled around its tip, emitting a sharp screech.
Jin Yi mustered all his strength and slammed the ultimate battle device down onto his feet!
Golden lightning roared and spread rampantly underground. These golden tree roots continued to descend, crossing the earth's crust and mantle, swimming through the scorching magma layer, with only one goal: the core of this planet!
As the planet's core was stimulated, the heart of the entire planet let out an ominous wail of pain. The earth was ripped apart, the clouds were torn apart, and moments later, a burst of intense light, too bright to look at with the naked eye, shot out, accompanied by a deafening explosion. This planet, which had existed for hundreds of millions of years, was reduced to dust in the universe in an instant by a single blow!
Jin Yi, however, pierced through the thick cloud of dust and caught a card.
The data of monsters defeated by the Ultimate Battle Device will be read, processed, and become Jin Yixin's power.
【Iluds - Mind link】
This card between Jin and Yi is the last proof of this extinct race.
The Iluds are now extinct.
"That's a pretty good result."
Jin Yi commented.
"Good lad, you actually thought of the same thing as me. I have to admit, your decisiveness is no less than mine."
Perhaps because Jin Yi's actions suited Belial's tastes, his tone softened as he inquired.
"What? Are we still going to continue tracking the Sphia life form?"
"No, there's no point in continuing to track it down."
Jin Yi pondered for a moment. The information from TPC indicated that the flight path of the Jeep III spacecraft was computer-controlled, leaving no room for the astronauts to maneuver. Combining this with the information obtained from Ilud's mainframe, there was only one conclusion—
Jeep 3 has encountered the Sphia life form, and the spacecraft, along with its three astronauts, has perished.
The Sphia lifeforms that attacked the spaceship obtained data from the spaceship's computer, and their next target is undoubtedly Earth!
P.S. The Iluds appeared in episode 41 of Ultraman Tiga, "Friends Returning from Space." They possessed a hive mentality, with the entire race sharing a single brain. They invaded Earth with the aim of assimilating humanity, infecting Shinjo's best friend. Unfortunately, their fighting strength was too weak, and after the hostages were rescued, they were easily defeated by Ultraman Tiga.
