The Gaelic people of the Ultraman Tiga world

Page 121

Without hesitation, Lu Xuan pressed the transformation button and quickly transformed into a lightning man who existed in the form of electromagnetic waves.

This unique form of existence is somewhat similar to a particle-like Daisymania individual, but possesses far greater flexibility than a Daisymania individual.

—The brain operates at the speed of light; wherever a thought goes, it travels at the speed of light.

Even when he reverted to his original Gaelic form, Lu Xuan had never experienced such a rapid pace of thought.

The only drawback is that the Lightning Man form only accelerated Lu Xuan's thinking speed, but did not improve his intelligence.

Fortunately, Lu Xuan didn't care about this kind of accelerated thinking.

A fool's ten thousand years of contemplation cannot compare to a wise man's momentary flash of inspiration.

As a shapeshifter who can freely transform into different life forms, no one understands this better than Lu Xuan.

The reason he transformed into the Lightning Man is simply to use the Lightning Man identity to communicate with TPC.

Not to mention, as Daigo had envisioned, completely resolving the conflict between the Lightning People and humans.

At the very least, we need to smooth things over and not let TPC pursue this any further.

If TPC were to investigate further, even Lu Xuan couldn't guarantee that they would be able to find the Galvin Corporation through the clues on the mechanical island.

Anyway, it was Lightning who leaked this information to TPC.

If Lu Xuan reveals some information and misleads the public under the guise of Lightning Man, TPC will most likely attribute the appearance of the mechanical island to some non-existent aliens.

However, before that, Lu Xuan had to solve a more pressing problem.

How did the Lightning Man become a physical being?

After transforming into the Lightning Man, Lu Xuan became a bunch of conscious electromagnetic waves.

The ability to give a mass of electromagnetic waves a physical form is a symbol of the Lightning People's development of civilization and wisdom, but it's not written in their genetic sequence.

【Huh? 】

Just as Lu Xuan was thinking about how to transform.

He suddenly felt a fluctuation in the electromagnetic waves that constituted him, and then he was connected to a much larger group.

This group exists outside the Earth's ionosphere; it is an "ocean of consciousness" composed of countless lightning beings.

Each Lightning Man is a brain cell in this "ocean of consciousness," responsible for a certain segment of thought and behavior.

Because this "ocean of consciousness" is simply too vast.

This means that even with brain cells that can move at the speed of light, his thinking speed is not much faster than that of an ordinary person.

[Natural enemy?]

In a daze, this "ocean of consciousness" seemed to have also sensed Lu Xuan's presence, and immediately a thought filled with amazement and doubt came from it.

It is obvious that the "ocean of consciousness" that Lu Xuan accessed is the collective consciousness of the Lightning People.

It exists throughout the ionosphere and is the combined will of countless lightning beings.

Therefore, when Lu Xuan, in his lightning form, merged into this "ocean of consciousness" but still retained a relatively complete and independent self, the collective consciousness became aware of the appearance of this outsider.

It's me!

Are you the same lightning-fast bird from before?

Overcoming the barriers of language and thought, Lu Xuan achieved perfect communication with the collective consciousness of the Lightning People without the need for an Omnitrix translator.

Chapter 192 The Will of the Sky

[Not destroyed... the Lightning People submit...]

They completely misunderstood Lu Xuan's seemingly accidental behavior.

Upon realizing that the other party was indeed their "natural enemy," the group immediately reacted with a sense of tension and offered explanations.

However, amidst the tension and the need for explanation, a sense of doubt inevitably arose within the group.

Even though I had already chosen to back down, why is this "natural enemy" still invading my consciousness?

And how did the other party invade my consciousness?

Why does the other person give me the feeling of being like a lightning bolt?

Uh, it was just a wonderful misunderstanding.

Having caught the idea of ​​collective consciousness, Lu Xuan explained somewhat awkwardly.

He never expected that simply becoming a lightning man would allow him to access the "ocean of consciousness" of the lightning people.

However, every mistake has a silver lining, and Lu Xuan now has a more suitable idea.

Instead of simply using the identity of the Lightning Man to deceive the TPC, why not simply become a bridge between the Lightning Man and humanity?

If done properly, Lu Xuan might actually be able to fulfill Daigu's expectations.

[Communication? Bridge?]

Having also caught Lu Xuan's fleeting thought, the collective consciousness of the Lightning Men was clearly even more puzzled.

However, this may be the first time I have communicated with another life form so clearly.

The collective consciousness can only express its emotions and thoughts in a simple way, but it cannot communicate with Lu Xuan like a normal human being.

If I could make the Lightning Man immune to the effects of human electromagnetic waves...

Are you willing to place your trust in me?

Unlike his previous mere intimidation, Lu Xuan now genuinely wanted to resolve this issue.

Even Lu Xuan himself wasn't sure whether he was influenced by Daigo when he said those words, or whether he had always had such thoughts.

The only certainty is that the collective consciousness of the Lightning People has fallen silent.

There are no lies or deceptions in this kind of intellectual exchange.

Since Lu Xuan is willing to say this, it proves that he does indeed have the ability to solve this problem.

But is it really necessary to entrust the Lightning Man's trust to his "natural enemy"?

Even those as simple as collective consciousness clearly understand that this is a "high-stakes gamble".

We...want to know...a solution...

After a brief silence, the collective consciousness intermittently conveyed this thought.

Along with this thought came countless disagreements within the Lightning People.

Fear, rejection, even anger...

That was the shared emotion of countless people amidst the lightning, and also the hidden anxieties of the collective consciousness.

There are two solutions.

Lu Xuan, who had expected this, was not surprised at all. Instead, he calmly explained with confidence.

The first solution is to let Lightning Man continue to 'evolve'!

You lightning people have been stuck at this stage of evolution for millions of years since your birth.

Because what carries your will is radio waves, the most common and easily exploitable waveband in the universe by intelligent life.

If you want to avoid similar effects, you must move beyond this radio wave frequency band and evolve into a higher energy level and more stable band.

After all, broadly speaking, light can be considered a form of electromagnetic wave.

Because it was an exchange of ideas, Lu Xuan's statements were quickly understood by the group consciousness.

We...want to evolve!

This time, the consciousness transmitted by the Lightning People was filled with unwavering determination.

This isn't because the collective consciousness is too naive, but because they understand better than anyone else how terrifying the "Sophon" is.

The being capable of creating such a "natural enemy" and transforming into Lightning Man at any time must possess a path that allows Lightning Man to evolve further.

[No rush, I have a second method I haven't mentioned yet!]

After sensing the urgency of the people in the Lightning Clan, Lu Xuan felt less pressured.

Because he suddenly realized a problem: since he might become a bridge for communication between lightning humans and humans.

So why not take it a step further?

The first thing that can be confirmed is that these lightning-inducing people have a long history.

But perhaps due to the existence of "group consciousness," they are far simpler than Lu Xuan imagined.

At the very least, the Lightning People, who can communicate directly through consciousness, do not have the concept of "lies".

If you can make the Lightning People's "collective consciousness" regard you as one of its true members, then they will trust you completely.

Making ample preparations for the world has always been Lu Xuan's style of doing things.

If Lu Xuan can truly gain the complete trust of the Lightning people.

Not only was the communication problem between the Lightning Man and humans solved, but it was also resolved.

Even when the Dark Lord Gatanothor truly descends, Lu Xuan will be able to obtain powerful assistance.

To be honest, just thinking about it makes Lu Xuan look forward to the day when he leads a large group of lightning warriors to besiege Gatanothor.

Gatanothor is indeed the "ultimate darkness" prophesied by the ancient civilization.

However, the Lightning People, who were born in the ancient times of Earth, are no pushovers either.

It is no exaggeration to say that the "collective will" of the lightning people floating in the ionosphere is the sky will of this parallel Earth.

Lu Xuan was unsure whether this parallel Earth possessed the will of the earth and the will of the sea, or whether it could give birth to Ultraman similar to Gaia and Agul.

But the "collective will" of the Lightning People is undoubtedly the will of the heavens on this Earth.

Leaving aside the powerful weapon that is Zhizi.

Even in the original TV series, Tiga and TPC never actually engaged in a major battle with Inazuma.

Before the TPC launched its war of annihilation against the Lightning People, the Lightning People's "collective will" had already decided to leave Earth and find a new home.

From this perspective, humanity can be said to have personally driven away the strongest ally that could have helped them defeat the "ultimate darkness."

Of course, considering the fact that the Lightning People are gradually becoming more and more violent, their voluntary departure from Earth is a good thing for both sides.

However, those all happened in the original TV series.

With Lu Xuan's involvement, Lightning Man is destined to never leave Earth again.

Whether it's the existence of the Sophon, or the concept of evolution proposed by Lu Xuan...

The "collective will" of the people is not something that can be easily let go of.

The former is the natural enemy of the Lightning People, an enemy that the Lightning People will absolutely not allow to exist unless they evolve.

The latter is a problem that has plagued the Lightning People for millions of years, and it represents the future of the entire Lightning People race.

It is precisely because of this contradictory premise that the "collective will" of the Lightning People has been able to achieve the current delicate harmony and coexistence with Lu Xuan.

What is the second...method?

Unbeknownst to them, in the short span of time, Lu Xuan had considered so many possibilities for the future.

The "collective will" of the Lightning People is still urgently seeking a second solution.

Evolution takes a long time. Even if I could use sophons to shorten your evolutionary process, it wouldn't be something that can be achieved in a short period of time.

Instead of directly answering the question about the "collective will" of the Lightning People, Lu Xuan continued to lay the groundwork.

Therefore, this second method is less of a complete solution and more of a supplement to the first.

[If only humanity could give up the technology related to electromagnetic waves...]

Therefore, the Lightning Man will no longer gradually go berserk due to the influence of abnormal electromagnetic waves.
