RBCT Chapter 291 The Resurrected Eye Q? Ancient Demonic Path
Chapter 291 The Resurrected Eye Q? Ancient Demonic Path
A week has passed in the blink of an eye since the 30th episode aired.
Saturday night at 8 p.m.
Updates from major video platforms are refreshed on time.
Countless tokusatsu fans who were waiting in front of their screens immediately clicked the play button without any hesitation.
Ultraman Gaia Episode 31 is officially online!
As the familiar, rousing opening theme ended, the main feature slowly lit up.
This episode opens with a battle scene.
The scene cuts directly to XIG's air base command center.
The piercing alarm instantly shattered the peace.
"POINT216 B9 has an energy response!" Communicator Georgie Leland reported loudly.
Commander Shi Shi frowned and immediately ordered, "Transfer to the main screen!"
As the image on the big screen changed, a huge monster appeared in everyone's field of vision.
It was a huge monster with enormous eyes, but half of its body was missing, covered with strange patterns, and it was emitting a chilling laugh.
Everyone in the command center was stunned by what they saw.
"Garren Q?"
"That's terrifying..."
The live chat exploded at that moment.
[Holy crap! Isn't that the giant-eyed monster from episode six?]
[Why did he melt? Half of his head is gone!]
That laughter still sounds so eerie; it gave me goosebumps even late at night.
[Could it be a clone created by the Extinction-Inducing Entity?]
In the footage, fighter jets have already roared to the scene.
"emission!"
With the command given, several missiles, trailing long plumes of flame, hurtled toward Garen Q.
However, a shocking scene unfolded.
The missile did not explode on the monster, but instead pierced straight through Gan Q's body, as if it had hit a wisp of air.
The next second, to everyone's astonishment, Gann Q's enormous body gradually became transparent like a mirage, and finally disappeared completely into the air.
"It's gone..." I dreamed, my face full of disbelief.
Comments floated by.
【phantom?】
What exactly is going on? I can see it but can't touch it?
[Holographic Projection Bar]
[Starting with a smokescreen, this episode has a bit of a suspense factor.]
The scene shifts, and the sky turns into an eerie fiery red.
A soccer ball slowly falls from mid-air.
A boy named Xiu Zuo slowly picked up the soccer ball from the ground and looked around blankly.
There was complete silence all around; there was not a sound.
Just then, a man with a peculiar appearance, dressed in Ming Dynasty costume, appeared silently in front of him.
The man's eyes were fierce and eerie.
"Who exactly are you?" Xiu Zuo asked, taking a step back in fear.
The man stared intently at him, his voice hoarse and deep: "I am the demon Yin Jiuyou." (Original work: Demon King Gui Shilang)
"The Demon Lord Yin Jiuyou?"
"My children and grandchildren..."
The man slowly reached out his hand, as if to grasp Xiu Zuo. "I need your power to complete the evil curse... I need your power!"
"An evil curse?"
"ah--!"
Xiu let out a terrified scream and sat up abruptly in bed.
He was panting heavily, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
It turns out, it was all just a dream.
The audience started discussing this.
Who is this middle-aged man? He's dressed rather strangely.
[Ancient clothing? Ultraman featuring time travel to ancient times?]
[Wow, this is a sudden change in style! It's gone from a sci-fi drama to a fantasy drama all of a sudden?]
Did they have eye sockets in ancient times?
The morning sun shines on the street.
Xiu Zuo, carrying his schoolbag, walked to school with his childhood sweetheart, Yang Mei.
"It's Xiu Zuo! You startled me." Yang Mei laughed and patted his shoulder.
Xiu Zuo still looked a little sleepy: "Can I come to your house to play after school today?"
"You're trying to freeload again? You're so shameless." Yang Mei rolled her eyes at him.
"It's because your mom's sundae was so delicious."
"If our shop goes bankrupt, it'll be because you've eaten us out of business."
The two were walking along, chatting and laughing.
Suddenly, a flowerpot fell from the balcony of the residential building above without warning.
Right below the flowerpot, a little girl was playing.
"Danger!" Yang Mei exclaimed.
At this critical moment, Xiu Zuo suddenly raised his finger.
An invisible force erupted instantly.
The rapidly falling flowerpot actually stopped in mid-air!
It paused for a full two and a half seconds.
Taking advantage of this gap, the little girl below seemed to sense something and started running away.
"Crack—"
As soon as the little girl ran away, the out-of-control flowerpot crashed to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Yang Mei was so shocked by what she saw that she covered her mouth.
"Just now...it stopped in mid-air?"
Xiu Zuo quickly looked away, pretending to be nonchalant: "How could that be? Let's go."
At this point, the chat was completely filled with question marks.
[Holy crap! Superpowers?!]
[He's got the sun and moon in his hands, huh? This kid's got some kind of cheat code!]
Physics no longer exists! Newton must be turning in his grave!
[I see, so the theme of this episode is superpowered teenagers.]
No wonder the ancient person in the dream wanted his power; it turns out he has superpowers!
[In a world that leans towards hard science fiction, there are also superpowers. The worldview of the tokusatsu genre is really something else. I feel like my worldview is going to collapse if I dream about it.]
[I've moved to Bengbu. Every time I dream about EyeQ, it's like my worldview is collapsing.]
It was afternoon.
At Yangmei's dessert shop.
Goga and Georgie Leland were sitting by the window, eating strawberry sundaes.
Georgie, dressed casually, complained as she ate, "I've been out all day investigating Garen Q. I really want something sweet now."
"It's really unlucky to have something like this happen during a rare vacation."
I nodded in agreement: "Yes, right?"
"Look at them, I've been through my student days too, and you're still like a student now," Georgie said with emotion, looking at Yomi and Shusaku who had just walked in through the window.
Just as the two were chatting, Shusaku and Hiromi pushed open the door and walked into the store.
"Shuzo, you're here," Yangmei's mother greeted her warmly.
Xiu Zuo said with a smile, "Today's strawberry sundae is especially delicious!"
"I'll bring it over right away."
Yangmei's mother turned around with the tray in her hand, but accidentally tripped on the carpet.
"oops!"
The glasses and cutlery on the tray were about to fall to the ground.
Xiu Zuo, who was standing to the side, widened his eyes again and used his superpower.
An amazing thing happened.
The tableware that was about to hit the ground paused mysteriously in mid-air, then was lifted by an invisible force and landed steadily back on the tray.
Yangmei's mother only staggered for a moment, then steadied herself, completely unaware of what had just happened.
But I, sitting not far away, saw all of this clearly.
He frowned slightly, his gaze fixed on the boy named Xiu Zuo.
The comments section was flooded with messages.
I dreamt about it! He definitely saw it!
[Trying to use superpowers in front of a genius scientist? You've been exposed.]
[That look in my eyes in my dream, the radar has already locked on.]
This superpower is so convenient; it's practically a fall-proof miracle!
Is this what they call a fateful encounter?
The scene switches back to the XIG air base.
A tattered ancient book was projected onto a large screen.
"This is indeed something left over from the late Ming Dynasty." Staff Officer Ye Qian looked at the text on the screen with a solemn expression.
"Yes, it was discovered the day before yesterday," Director Di Cheng reported.
"Yin Jiuyou, a heretical cultivator from the late Ming Dynasty."
"The heretical text written by this demon has been unearthed; this is it."
Everyone in the command center listened attentively to the analysis.
"According to this ancient book, the demon predicted the appearance of Gob more than four hundred years ago. Moreover, the date was very accurate."
"What?" A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the stone chamber commander.
"The demon used sorcery to attempt to assassinate a Ming Dynasty general and seize his position."
"But his trick was exposed, so he committed suicide."
"However, before committing suicide, the demon cast a final evil curse: to use the power of the Destruction Summoning Body to control the entire world."
A brief background introduction completely sets the stage for the suspense in the plot.
Viewers shared their opinions in the live chat.
[They predicted the doom and destruction over 400 years ago? These ancient people were ruthless.]
Is metaphysics truly the end of science?
So, the phantom of Gann Q that's appearing now is just a result of this old scoundrel's resentment?
This plot is interesting; I'm getting more and more curious about how it will develop.
Night falls.
Xiu Zuo was once again trapped in that terrible dream.
In my dream, the hideous face of the demon Yin Jiuyou reappeared.
"Your power was given to you by me, therefore you have a mission: to help us complete the evil curse!"
Xiu Zuo shook his head frantically in fear: "Mission? What mission?"
The demon lord Yin Jiuyou let out a maniacal laugh: "Using destruction and despotism, we will establish our dynasty!"
"Establish a dynasty?"
"With your abilities and destiny, all wishes can be fulfilled! The blood of the demon Yin Jiuyou flows in your veins!"
The voice of the demon Yin Jiuyou echoed in Xiu Zuo's ears like a nightmare.
"The destiny of bloodline is something no one can resist!"
The screen suddenly flashed.
The next day, during the day.
The piercing sirens blared once again on the city streets.
Garen Q's enormous figure appeared in the city center.
"Garren Q has appeared at POINT 256 B1!"
The crowd scattered in terror and fled.
But amidst the flow of people going against the flow, Xiu Zuo seemed to be possessed, running straight towards the direction of Gan Q.
"Kid, go take refuge!" Senuma, the head of the Geo base, tried to stop him.
Shusaku flung Senuma's hand away, staring intently at the monster in the distance: "He told me to look closely... Who told you to look closely!"
Just as he was about to approach the danger zone, a laser bombardment launched by XIG fighter jets forced EyeQ to disappear.
……
A few minutes later, I dreamt of standing in front of Senuma.
"Mr. Senuma, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," Imu said.
"Thank you for your hard work, is this him?"
I dreamt of looking at the somewhat awkward young man before me.
"You are... Shusaku, right?"
"You've had superpowers since Gob appeared?"
Shusaku lowered his head: "Probably... It's impossible for me to suddenly have any superpowers."
"It must be because of an evil curse."
"The demon said he wants you to lend him your superpowers?" I asked softly, trying to keep my tone gentle.
Xiu Zuo nodded, his eyes filled with fear: "As long as I lend him my power, he will grant me any wish."
After realizing the seriousness of the situation, I decided to get involved personally.
"Mr. Senuma, would you mind leaving this to me?"
I dreamt that Xiu Zuo was merely a victim, cursed by his ancestors even before he was born. If we cannot help him psychologically untangle this knot, the consequences will be unimaginable.
A chorus of agreement floated across the screen in the comments.
My dream was so gentle; it didn't arrest him immediately as a dangerous individual.
Using science to guide metaphysics—I think this is a good move.
I feel like my materialistic worldview in my dreams is about to be shattered by superpowers again.
[The main thing is, this kid is really pitiful, being harassed in his dreams every day by an old man who died hundreds of years ago.]
[Don't blame the child; who wouldn't be driven crazy by having nightmares like that every day?]
To comfort Xiu Zuo, I changed into a tracksuit and took him to an empty football field.
"It's you. What's up?" Xiu Zuo kicked at the pebbles under his feet.
"It's Sunday today, come for a walk with me." I smiled and took out a soccer ball.
"What exactly are you trying to tell me?"
"Let's play soccer." I dreamt of kicking the ball directly.
Xiu Zuo curled his lip: "How boring."
But soon, Xiu Zuo displayed amazing "ball skills".
He used his superpowers to alter the trajectory of the soccer ball and easily shot it into the goal.
"Wow, that's amazing!" I pretended to be surprised.
Xiu Zuo smiled smugly: "I'm a genius soccer player, right?"
I dreamt I shook my head, my tone turning serious: "Yes, that's because you used superpowers."
Xiu Zuo's smile froze.
He lowered his head, his voice somewhat dejected: "Actually, I didn't want to use this power. But at crucial moments, I just couldn't control it."
"I know this is cheating."
"I think I'll listen to the demon." Xiu Zuo took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision. "Since he is my ancestor, it is only natural for me to inherit his will."
"If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been born."
I looked at him with unwavering determination: "If that's the case, then you and I are enemies."
"Then let's settle this once and for all."
"A decisive battle?"
I nodded in my dream.
He came to be the goalkeeper, and Xiuzuo came to shoot.
However, facing the cheating superpowers of the Shusaku, I was completely unable to defend against the agile and unpredictable soccer ball enhanced by superpowers.
I dream of falling down again and again, but getting up again and again.
Even those who practice cultivation are inevitably shocked by my unwavering devotion to dreams.
"This is the twentieth goal, shall we continue?"
"Of course!"
Xiu Zuo kicked the ball again, and it drew a strange arc in the air, heading straight for the corner of the goal.
"Why do you have to be so stubborn?" Xiu Zuo shouted.
"Enough talk, continue!"
Just as the ball was about to go into the net, Imu kicked off his shoe, colliding with the ball whose trajectory had been altered by his superpower, and then suddenly lunged forward.
"Snapped!"
I caught the football steadily in my arms.
Xiu Zuo's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief: "It's blocking it?!"
"But you're cheating!" Xiu Zuo shouted.
I stood up, dusted myself off, and said with a smile, "I noticed that you slowed down the ball before using your superpower to change its direction. I found that opening."
It was during this brief moment that I dreamt I kicked my shoe onto the ball.
Xiu Zuo paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth: "You're really cunning."
"Same here." I dreamt I stepped forward and handed the ball to Xiu Zuo.
"Are you an idiot?" Shusaku couldn't help but ask.
I dreamt of my smile fading, and looked intently into Xiu Zuo's eyes: "That's because I believe in you."
"I believe you won't use your superpowers for anything improper. You'll use them for the right things, right?"
Xiu Zuo looked into Meng's sincere eyes and was deeply moved.
"You're right," I continued. "It will be the same from now on. Even if you have that demon's blood flowing through your veins, you are still you. With your strong will, you will definitely be able to overcome this evil curse."
[The male lead in my dream is so gentle; he doesn't rely on force, but rather on his personal charm to influence others.]
My dream's emotional intelligence is sometimes very low, but at other times it can work wonders.
It's possible that I might have emotional intelligence in my dreams, but it's also somewhat unlikely that I actually have emotional intelligence in my dreams.
【Promise, why is the top of your head so pointy?】
"You are still you." Just because your ancestors were scoundrels doesn't mean you have to be one too.
Encouraged by my dream, Shusaku's eyes became determined.
That night.
The nightmare has returned.
The demon Yin Jiuyou's arrogant laughter echoed through the red sky: "Come! My descendants! Quickly hand over your power to me!"
"Let's build our dynasty!"
However, this time, Xiu Zuo did not back down.
He raised his head, staring directly into the terrifying eyes of the demon Yin Jiuyou, and shouted, "I refuse!"
"That's right! You said you could grant all wishes with evil spells, that's a complete lie!"
Xiu Zuo's tone was unwavering: "Brother Gao has already proven it to me! So, don't ever show your face in front of me again!"
Upon hearing Xiu Zuo's refusal, the smile on the demon Yin Jiuyou's face vanished instantly.
Instead, there was boundless anger and ferocity.
"Then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The demon Yin Jiuyou waved his hand.
In the scene, Shusaku's good friend Hiromi is bound by an invisible force and is struggling painfully.
"Kawahimi, your childhood friend is now in my hands!"
"Yangmei! Yangmei!" Xiu Zuo shouted in terror.
The demon lord Yin Jiuyou uttered a vicious curse: "Give me your power now! Otherwise, she's doomed!"
