Chen Yu chose not to personally teach the guy a lesson but sat down in a nearby milk tea shop instead, ordering a cup of juice.
He then made a formal complaint to the authorities about the guy who had been secretly recording videos in hotels and uploading them to unsavory websites for profit.
Given these circumstances, that guy's days were numbered.
After making the report, Chen Yu quietly waited.
Soon, a team arrived quietly, went upstairs, and "read the meter," so to speak.
Pleased with the outcome, Chen Yu finished his juice and left the area.
Yes, he had come all this way just to see the guy get caught.
With the incident wrapped up, Chen Yu no longer concerned himself with the matter.
...
The cooldown for the instance world quickly ended.
As usual, Chen Yu began the automatic extraction of a new instance in his room.
[Instance extraction cooldown has ended. Randomly extracting…]
[Extraction complete.]
[Extracted instance: Ultraman X - Here Comes Our Ultraman!]
[Instance difficulty: Advanced!]
[Instance description: The world's trajectory has deviated, Ultraman X has been sealed by Gargorgon, Ultraman and Ultraman Tiga failed to appear in time, Earth is in grave danger!]
[Instance mission: Eliminate Gargorgon!]
[Mission reward: Pyramid Seal ×1]
Seeing this mission, Chen Yu felt indifferent, as it was just a regular task.
Although classified as advanced difficulty, Chen Yu saw it more as an intermediate challenge.
The reward was the Pyramid Seal, likely the pyramid used to seal Gargorgon in the storyline. Chen Yu briefly reviewed its functionality.
[Pyramid Seal: Can summon a pyramid to seal any alien or monster for 1 day to 100,000 years.]
Quite a range, isn't it?
But Chen Yu believed it wasn't random but rather dependent on the sealed entity's strength.
If the strength was too great, it might just barely seal for a day.
For weaker entities, the seal could last much longer.
For example, sealing a Pigmon might seal it for 100,000 years.
Sealing Belial, at most, would seal him for a day.
"Forcing a day's seal isn't too bad."
Just eliminating Gargorgon would earn this reward, which was satisfactory to Chen Yu.
The main attraction was the advanced technology in the X universe; acquiring some could be more beneficial than the mission reward itself.
After the instance transfer began, Chen Yu vanished from his room as if a TV screen had been turned off.
The next second, he appeared in a desolate wilderness.
A sound resembling a beast's roar mixed with sinister laughter reached Chen Yu's ears, giving him goosebumps.
Following the direction of the sound, Chen Yu realized the timing of his arrival was quite fortuitous.
Gargorgon had already broken free from its seal!
The monster, resembling a prehistoric dinosaur, covered in blood-red skin with spikes on its back and gaping jaws, roared terrifyingly as if it were the Yama from hell.
Battling Gargorgon in this wilderness was Ultraman X!
The battle was at a critical point, with X transformed into his Exceed form, intending to deliver a one-strike kill on Gargorgon.
After gathering energy for the finishing move, X, wielding the Rainbow Sword, charged at Gargorgon, only to be unexpectedly swatted away with a tail swipe.
Boom, X crashed heavily onto the ground.
Simultaneously, Gargorgon gathered a dark red energy in its mouth, blasting it towards X.
Whoosh!
The thick dark red beam hit X directly, sending him flying.
In the sky, X disintegrated into data streams, separating Daichi from his Ultraman form.
Using his last energy, X wrapped Daichi in a protective field and sent him to the ground.
"Daichi, are you okay?"
Daichi's teammate, Asuna Yamase, rushed over, helping him up and calling out anxiously.
Meanwhile, Gargorgon fired another dark red ray, creating a blood pond beneath its feet, shocking Asuna and Daichi.
Reacting quickly, Daichi picked up the X Devizer that had fallen nearby.
The X Devizer, now covered in dark red energy strands, was unresponsive.
Clearly, X had been sealed by Gargorgon's energy.
Although powerful, Gargorgon, ultimately a monster that didn't follow through with its kills, dived into the blood pond it created, disappearing from sight.
A plainly dressed woman with a child approached the group, relieved to see everyone was okay.
The woman, Tsukasa Tamaki, a professor of archaeology and lookalike of Rina, had a son named Yuuto, a grade schooler with the remarkable ability to transform into Ultraman Tiga and fight in emergencies.
Chen Yu suspected the boy harbored Ultraman's genetic light.
Of course, it could be for other reasons, given the idealistic nature of the Ultraman universe.
With "I reckon" power, one could be invincible.
As Gargorgon left and Daichi and the others prepared to depart, Chen Yu approached them.
If he didn't make contact with Daichi now, finding them later would be difficult.
"Hmm?" Daichi, puzzled, noted the approach of another person, "You are...?"
It was indeed puzzling to encounter someone suddenly in such a desolate place.
"Let me introduce myself." Chen Yu started, "I'm Chen Yu, here to help you defeat that monster."
To gain access to the world's advanced technology, the best approach was to infiltrate the defense team, Xio.
"Chen Yu?" Daichi looked at Chen Yu with a mix of surprise and confusion, then asked, "Do you know the origin of that monster?"
"Of course," Chen Yu nodded, "That monster is Gargorgon, a demon from hell, according to legend."
"Indeed..."
Professor Tsukasa Tamaki nodded.
She had seen ancient texts related to Gargorgon in the pyramid ruins, aligning with what Chen Yu described.
"I know I've appeared suddenly, and you might not believe what I say..."
"I believe you."
Before Chen Yu could finish, Daichi interrupted.
This left Chen Yu momentarily speechless. Why doesn't the protagonist's group follow the expected script?
