"Pass the word! Say that the doctor has passed away."
With a slight sigh, Masaki Keigo's meaning was already quite clear.
That is to cover up Dr. Nezu's violation of the rules and allow him to preserve his last vestige of reputation.
Although Dr. Nezu himself may not care about these things, this is the last thing the base staff can do for him.
"Ok, I see!"
Deeply grateful, Masaki Keigo bowed deeply.
For the first time, the staff felt that their director wasn't as cold and impersonal as they had imagined.
At least in the case of Dr. Nezu, his own director not only allowed his illegal actions, but also covered up the illegal actions for him.
"Let's go! Let him have some peace and quiet in his final moments!"
Under the leadership of Keigo Masaki, all the staff in the research lab began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
However, no one noticed the slight upturn of Masaki Keigo's lips before he left the research lab.
......................................................................................................
beep beep...
Not long after everyone evacuated the research lab, the "light particle converter," which had stopped operating, lit up again.
However, this time the "light particle converter" emitted a faint golden light.
That was the light emanating from the Phoenix Sila, and also Dr. Nezu's final attachment to this world.
tumultuous!
Under the call of this light, a frail figure slowly appeared in the research room.
"dad?"
She was petite and delicate, with a soft and sorrowful voice.
Then, Mami Sora, dressed in a red dress, appeared and stared blankly at Dr. Nezu in the "Light Particle Converter," unable to come to her senses for a long time.
"Ming!"
On Mami's shoulder, the shrunken Phoenix Sila gradually appeared.
He looked at Dr. Nezu inside the "light particle converter" with a similarly slightly sad expression.
Sila could sense her young master's sadness, and at the same time, she could also sense her old master's final attachment and reluctance to leave.
Dr. Nezu has exhausted all his efforts in order to see his daughter one last time.
"Ming!"
It slowly flapped its wings.
Phoenix Sila flew off Mami's shoulder and landed on the "light particle converter" to her astonishment.
"Sira?"
He looked at Sila's actions with some confusion.
Just as Mami was about to say something, she saw the faint golden light inside the "light particle converter" begin to gather and coalesce, gradually emerging from the glass cover of the "light particle converter".
As if his soul had burst out of his body, another "Dr. Nezu" appeared directly above Dr. Nezu's body.
It was a man shrouded in golden light, with a slightly dazed and hesitant gaze, known as "Dr. Nezu".
"father!"
It wasn't until he heard Mami's shout that "Dr. Nezu's" eyes gradually regained their focus.
"Asami?"
When "Dr. Nezu" tentatively reached out his hand to Mami, she was finally certain that it was her father.
Driven by her excitement, Mami didn't think too much and instinctively threw herself into Dr. Nezu's arms.
Feeling that long-lost warmth and embrace, Mami shed tears of happiness.
"I've finally seen you again, Dad!"
......................................................................................................
Outside the research institute, at the end of a noisy corridor.
As if sensing what was happening inside the research institute, Masaki Keigo suddenly stopped in his tracks without warning.
"I see!"
"Is this the 'light of evolution' that belongs to humanity?"
With a deep and wise gaze, Masaki Keigo's eyes seemed to pierce through the very essence of truth.
"I've finally found the last piece of the puzzle to become a giant!"
Gently turning around, Masaki Keigo's expression had never been so sincere and earnest.
"Doctor, thank you."
"If the 'you' you are now is still you..."

Chapter 753 Victory Team Rookie Asuka Shin
Asuka Shin is the most outstanding graduate of TPC Professional Training School in his class.
Therefore, after graduation, in accordance with his personal wishes and job assignment, Shin Asuka was assigned to the GUTS branch stationed in Kyushu, Japan.
This branch of the GUTS is a combat unit specifically responsible for combating supernatural phenomena in the Kyushu region.
Besides his daily patrols, Shin Asuka's most important task is to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible to deal with any supernatural phenomena or monster disasters that occur in Kyushu.
Thanks to the various skills taught at school, Shin Asuka was able to perform these tasks with ease.
The only thing that Asuka Shin was somewhat dissatisfied with was that his superior was too cautious, which meant that he, an outstanding frontline combatant, didn't have much opportunity to demonstrate his abilities.
If a supernatural phenomenon or monster disaster actually occurs, Asuka Shin's main role is to press a button with different functions in the base.
Because any dangerous tasks had already been properly arranged by their superiors.
Only in truly unexpected events does Shin Asuka have the opportunity to go to the front lines, piloting combat mechs to stop monsters from invading human-inhabited cities.
For example, right now...
Woo! Woo! Woo!
Air raid sirens blared throughout the city.
Asuka Shin, who was in the patrol car, immediately looked up, his face showing undisguised surprise and excitement.
"Haha! Finally, another unexpected event!"
The words had barely left his mouth when Asuka Shin immediately realized something was wrong.
Because Ryo Yumimura, who was sitting in the driver's seat next to him, suddenly turned gloomy.
"Asuka!"
"I've told you so many times, you need to stay calm, especially at times like these."
"Do you even understand that every air raid siren means the death or injury of innocent people and the huge property loss of the residents living here?"
"If you can't empathize with this, and instead always expect unexpected events to happen, then you'll never truly join the winning team!"
Although he was only five years older than Shin Asuka, Ryo Yumimura had already experienced many real battles.
Compared to Asuka Shin, who knew nothing and simply longed for the admiring gaze of others.
When Ryo Yumimura joined the GUTS branch, it was during the most dangerous period after Ultraman Tiga's disappearance.
During those difficult years and the war, Ryo Yumimura lost a lot, including the seniors who had always protected her and taught her how to fight.
"..."
Seeing Yumimura Ryo in a fit of rage, Asuka Shin wisely refrained from defending himself.
Deep down, Shin Asuka didn't care about Ryo Yumimura's scolding.
Without experiencing the true brutality of war, a passionate and outstanding student like Asuka Shin would never know how terrible war is.
Especially during his adolescence, the most crucial period of his growth, the absence of Kazuma Asuka as a father figure made Shin Asuka even more convinced of the importance of strength.
......................................................................................................
Woo! Woo! Woo!
The piercing air raid sirens echoed throughout the city.
Meanwhile, members of the Victory Team branches, originally scattered throughout the city, rushed to the front lines.
Soon, members of the GUTS branch, including Ryo Mimura and Shin Asuka, noticed the target that triggered the alarm—a hideous monster that resembled a human.
"What the hell is that!?"
Looking at the monster that seemed to have stepped out of an urban legend, Asuka Shin, the first to get off the bus, pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Silence!
After several iterations, the Specium Gun, now possessing excellent lethality and destructive power, instantly hits the monster.
"what!"
It let out a painful howl, and the ugly monster instantly went limp.
Then, the Specium substance 133 in the high-energy rays began to take effect, fundamentally destroying every cell of the hideous monster.
This monster, possessing extraordinary regenerative abilities, was reduced to a pool of blood before it could even display its power.
"Flying Bird! Who gave you permission to get out of the car and fire!"
Seeing this, Yumimura Ryo once again shouted angrily.
"To fire a shot without first investigating the truth of the matter—I don't recall TPC producing such a murderer!"
In this era where mutant Ziegela are rampant, many humans have succumbed to their allure and fallen into monster form.
Therefore, in order to avoid accidentally killing innocent people, the GUTS team has very strict restrictions on firing.
Especially when using a powerful weapon like the Specium Gun, you must make sure that you kill a non-human monster with every shot.
To be honest, this regulation seems somewhat incomprehensible to the vast majority of TPC members.
After all, they have already degenerated into monsters, and the best course of action for frontline personnel is to decisively open fire to protect themselves.
However, only combatants like Ryo Yumimura, who have been fighting on the front lines for years, truly understand that the line between humans and monsters may be very thin.
No one knows whether the monster you shot and killed a second ago will turn back into your missing colleague the next second.
Combatants who fight on the front lines year-round and endure immense psychological pressure are sometimes even more prone to succumbing to darkness than the humans they protect.
Yoshiyuki Yumimura had witnessed people accidentally killing their colleagues.
Then, under immense psychological pressure, he secretly hides the mutant Zigela, hoping to use Zigela's power to release his inner repression and guilt.
As for their ultimate fate?
The fact that Yoshimi Yumimura is standing here now rebuking Shin Asuka is the best proof of that.
"But……"
Asuka Shin, somewhat unconvinced, wanted to say something.
Before he could finish speaking, another ugly monster pounced out from their blind spot.
"what!"
Caught off guard, Asuka Shin's combat suit was ripped open with a huge tear.
If it weren't for the energy shield and combat suit that blocked that fatal blow for him...
Ryo Yumimura believed that Shin Asuka could not possibly still be standing, and looked at the ugly monster with shock and lingering fear.
"hateful!"
"That's why I hate teaming up with self-important newbies like you!"
