A blue and white dragon-like monster is heading towards the coast, and various warships along the way are attacking it, but these conventional weapons are completely ineffective against the behemoth.
"Sphia Dragon King Synthetic Beast" Leviathan.
The monster was born from the fusion of the power of the ocean and the water king.
Standing 62 meters tall and weighing 3 tons, it can spray high-pressure water jets that are incredibly sharp, easily cutting through most substances. It can also unleash tsunamis hundreds of meters high to flood coastal areas or release cold currents to freeze the ocean.
Meanwhile, Leviathan is heading to Kassel...
Scia's all-out attack has begun, and the three monsters have gathered.
With such power, is Softia truly aiming to defeat Ultraman, or does she have other motives?
(Two chapters today, and it will most likely be two chapters from now on.)
Chapter 34: The Battle of Kassel.
"The Sphia Dragon King's synthetic beast, the Bronze Dragon, has left the Three Gorges. Its flight destination is speculated to be Kassel College. Anti-air weapons around the world are ineffective!"
"The Sphia Dragon King's hybrid beast, Jormungandr, has left Nibelungen and is currently diving underground, heading towards its destination, also Kassel College."
"The Sphia Dragon King's synthetic beast Leviathan is already engaged in battle with the warship fleet in the Pacific, but the monster is ignoring the attack and is heading to Kassel... The Snake Clan's Genji has led his fleet and Uesugi Erii to provide support."
"Moreover, countless second-generation dragons already assimilated by the Sphia and a large number of Sphia elite troops are about to arrive in Kassel!"
EVA is constantly reporting information.
"Are all these monsters coming to Kassel College?"
"Is it for Ultraman, or is there some other reason?"
Flamer has temporarily become the most influential leader in Kassel and is considering his strategy.
“Although we don’t know their purpose, we absolutely cannot let them reach Kassel. It would be best to lure them to an uninhabited area as the battlefield for the final battle. We absolutely cannot let them enter the city!” Li Xiang said.
"Alright, let's make the battlefield inside Kassel College, and fight the monster right here in the college!"
Flammel made up his mind and decided to hold the decisive battle at the Kassel College.
"The Leviathan in the Pacific Ocean is to defeat it at sea and prevent it from making it ashore! Reaching Kassel from the coast requires passing through cities, and we don't have time to evacuate so many people, so we must stop it at sea!"
"All lower-grade students in the academy shall be evacuated; everyone else shall return to their posts and prepare for battle!"
Li Xiang put on the Victory Team uniform once again.
Chu Zihang and Caesar were also by his side.
"Gentlemen, the upcoming battle is extremely dangerous. Are you sure you want to participate?"
"Of course, as the heir of the Gattuso family, the words 'desertion' do not exist in my dictionary!"
Caesar was already dressed in his air force uniform, full of fighting spirit.
Chu Zihang, however, remained calm: "Leave it to us. Rhine can only be activated by me and Caesar."
Because the forbidden weapon was mounted on the Victory Flying Swallow and required bloodline to barely activate, the pilots were naturally Caesar and Chu Zihang.
As for Li Xiang, he naturally wanted to transform into Ultraman Tiga to fight, so the Victory Swallow was temporarily lent to Chu Zihang and Caesar.
Right now, Li Xiang is teaching the two how to drive the Flying Swallow.
Although the Flying Swallow's technology far surpasses that of this world, the way the aircraft is operated is the same as in this world. The Flying Swallow is also equipped with several operating methods, such as a joystick.
As a college known for its dragon-slaying academy, it's quite normal for students at Kassel College to fly fighter jets.
...Is this normal?
Anyway, Li Xiang didn't ask any more questions.
Chu Zihang and Caesar entered the cockpit; it was their first time piloting such a technologically advanced, futuristic fighter jet.
"Chu Zihang, I heard that this thing can go Mach 5. Will we get crushed into mincemeat?"
Caesar began to worry that he wouldn't be able to handle the load that was about to come. Although he was a hybrid, he wasn't Superman.
At Mach 5, any turn or roll would crush the people inside into a bloody pulp.
"There shouldn't be any problems, right..."
Chu Zihang wasn't quite sure either, but he was Chinese after all and had core equipment—who cares!
We're all in the cockpit now, let's fly first.
The green light came on, the runway was cleared... but the Flying Swallow was taking off and landing vertically...
The two piloted the Flying Swallow into the air, awaiting the arrival of the monster.
Li Xiang also arrived at the open space and began to wait.
Not long after, the roar of engines came from the sky, and a streak of fire flew over Kassel before crashing to the ground.
The massive impact caused the earth to tremble, and soil was thrown hundreds of meters high.
As the dust settled, a monster nearly a hundred meters tall was roaring.
The Sphia Dragon King's hybrid beast - Bronze Dragon.
Next, a crack appeared in the ground, which gradually widened, and a monster made of rock emerged from the earth.
Soil fell from the monster's body, baring its fangs and claws in the sunlight, a truly terrifying sight.
The Sphia Dragon King's chimera—Jormungandr.
As the two monsters appeared, countless fighter jets also appeared in the sky, including the Flying Swallow, and launched an attack on the two monsters together.
Of course, Li Xiang had specifically warned that these fighter jets would attack the monster from a distance using missiles and would never get close to it.
Although these missiles are not very useful, the main purpose is to create a sense of participation.
Meanwhile, Chu Zihang and Caesar, relying on the high mobility of the Flying Swallow, fired green laser-equipped spike cannons while flying directly over the heads of the two monsters and then dropping several storm torpedoes.
The Flying Swallow is a two-seater, usually with a pilot and a weapons operator. Chu Zihang is the pilot, while Caesar is responsible for operating the weapons system. Of course, one person can also drive across domains, but that requires top-notch piloting skills like Li Xiang's.
The torpedo landed on the monster, exploding into a shower of sparks.
But it's clearly ineffective against monsters.
"The storm torpedo hit, but the effect was far from ideal!"
"Then let's continue."
The two decided together to do it a few more times.
Neither of the monsters seemed to have any means of ranged attacks. Faced with the high-speed Flying Swallow, they could only swing their front claws, but they could not do anything to the Flying Swallow.
After several rounds, the storm torpedoes were almost all used up, but the skins of the two monsters remained unbroken.
"How about we try Rhine?" Caesar suggested.
"No, the Rhine blast radius is too large; we can't use it here. We need to retreat..."
Before Chu Zihang could finish speaking, the Flying Swallow suddenly began to plummet uncontrollably downwards.
"What's going on? Chu Zihang, pull up quickly! We're going to crash!"
"I'm pooping!!"
Chu Zihang pulled the control stick desperately, but the Flying Swallow still crashed towards the ground.
Li Xiang watched the Flying Swallow crash, and then saw the horns of the monster Jormungandr flashing.
"It's that monster!"
Without hesitation, Li Xiang decisively raised the Spark Prism and transformed into Ultraman Tiga.
A flash of light appeared, and the three-colored giant delivered a flying kick to Jormungandr.
The powerful force shattered Jormungandr's horns, and the monster itself was sent flying.
Having lost its horns, Jormungandr could no longer use Specia gravity, and the soon-to-crash Flying Swallow was successfully lifted up.
"I almost died! Chu Zihang, fly over there, we'll go coordinate with Ultraman Tiga and give them a big one!"
In a fit of rage, Caesar even activated his Words of Power to enhance the accuracy of his onboard weapons.
Tiga's appearance now is actually part of the strategy: first, let the fighter jets engage the monster from a distance beyond visual range, thereby analyzing the monster's weaknesses and basic situation.
For example, the intelligence we have now obtained is that Jormungandr can use gravity and can also dig underground.
Bronze dragons, on the other hand, possess incredibly hard bodies.
After Tiga appeared, the distant fighter jets also left. Their mission was to harass the two monsters from a distance, and they were not allowed to participate in the battle that followed.
So their current mission is to return to Kassel and face the attacking Sphia vanguard and the second-generation dragon race assimilated by Sphia.
A battle has begun.
Chapter 35 Counterattack
Angers silently watched the cold tombstone in the heavy rain.
These were all his old friends... but now only Angers was left, barely clinging to life.
A loud bang was heard, and the silent Angers raised his head and turned to look in the direction of Kassel.
While the cemetery was still shrouded in drizzle, the battlefield was bathed in sunshine.
Under the sunlight, the giant's imposing figure is fighting against two monsters.
Angers watched Ultraman's battle, watched human fighter jets streak across the sky, and watched Kassel College gradually be destroyed.
This time, the enemy is stronger than ever before, even stronger than the legendary Black King—a monster!
Raindrops fell on Angers' face and slid down from the corners of his eyes.
Angers couldn't tell if it was a monster or a dragon...
The fire in Kassel is just like the fire in Hamburg back then.
That fire consumed the hearts of people in Angers...
Suddenly a familiar voice rang out behind Angers.
Angers turned around almost instinctively and saw the figure he missed so much standing in the rain beside the tombstone.
