Chapter 234: Accidental Abduction of Tregear
1 week ago · 6 min read
Time flew by, and three months passed quietly!
During these days, Zod had been staying in the experimental center of the Science and Technology Bureau, attempting to create a small plasma spark energy core with the help of Hikari and a group of Ultraman scientists.
Among them, besides Hikari, another figure caught Zod's eye: Tregear, who was also a Blue-tribe scientist.
This guy had heard that Zod had eliminated Belial, and in their interactions, he would always bring up Belial, or even questions about light and darkness.
Zod, of course, knew that he had a near-paranoid pursuit of truth, and would even do a series of crazy things in the future.
But Zod didn't care at all, and even inadvertently revealed a trace of his intertwined light and dark power in front of him.
Since then, Tregear had been constantly following Zod, asking Zod with intense thirst for knowledge about what the relationship between light and dark should be.
However, Zod knew it wasn't the time yet, so he didn't give him a direct answer.
This didn't dampen Tregear's enthusiasm at all; he felt that the things he had been thinking about could find an answer in Zod.
Through him, Zod had also acquired almost all the technical data developed by the Land of Light over the past hundreds of thousands of years!
But it was a pity that the most important plasma spark tower could never be truly replicated.
Although those failed products also contained powerful energy, they completely lacked the ability to allow living beings to complete a leap in their life level.
He had suspected this from the very beginning, but after obtaining the Origin of Light, he still wanted to verify it personally.
And now, these repeated failures seemed to confirm that the seemingly accidental situation encountered by the Land of Light when debugging the plasma spark tower at the beginning was not entirely an accident.
The information received from those rays of light made Zod feel as if he had traveled through time, personally following the group of scientists from the Land of Light to complete the manufacturing process of the original plasma spark tower.
But even if he replicated the situation that caused that accident, he still couldn't succeed.
After another failed experiment, Zod said with some relief: "It seems that the miracle of the Land of Light cannot be replicated."
Upon hearing this, Hikari made an association and quickly explained:
"Mr. Zod, please believe in the integrity of our Land of Light. We have absolutely no reservations regarding the technical data of the plasma spark tower. Please give me some time to study the reason for the failure."
At his words, Zod was slightly taken aback, then immediately realized that he had misunderstood!
Because he had already anticipated this matter in his heart, Zod could also judge at this moment that Hikari was indeed not lying.
However, this might also reflect from the side that since the plasma spark tower was lit 270,000 years ago, all the Ultramen in the Land of Light might have never thought about replicating it.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been the case that after Belial invaded and took it away, the entire Land of Light would have fallen into a state of complete paralysis.
Immediately, he shook his head at Hikari and said: "You don't need to worry about it. I don't mean anything else; I just verified a guess of my own."
These words aroused Hikari's curiosity: "Mr. Zod, could you tell me what kind of guess that is?"
"Are you sure you want to hear it?"
"I am indeed a bit curious."
Hearing these words, Tregear also showed a curious attitude.
Seeing this, Zod did not hide it and immediately told them his conjecture about the birth of the Land of Light!
Hearing Zod say that the reason why their Land of Light was able to leap from a group of ordinary creatures to evolve into light lifeforms was not an accident, but a choice made by the Universe's will, Hikari felt a trance in his heart.
And Tregear was lost in thought.
He had already had doubts about the creed of the existence of the Land of Light and Ultraman, and now it seemed to be confirmed by Zod's words.
It was from this moment on that his desire to leave the Land of Light became stronger and stronger.
His eyes were fixed on Zod; he felt that perhaps the truth he had been pursuing could be obtained from Zod.
Just at this moment, Zod also gave him a meaningful look and continued:
"For the Universe itself, it operates according to certain rules and order, and I am afraid you are the existence it chose to maintain this order and balance!"
"From a realistic point of view, in the past nearly 300,000 years, all your actions in the Universe seem to have been quite effective in safeguarding the balance and stability of the Universe."
A moment later, Hikari raised his head: "Mr. Zod, do you mean that everything we do is because the Universe's will is guiding us invisibly?"
His belief was shaken at this moment, because after they became Ultramen, the Land of Light naturally took maintaining peace in the Universe as its bounden duty and took pride in it.
But now, Zod's words were almost telling him that they were just puppets manipulated by the Universe's will.
If the person who said these words was not Zod, but some other cosmic being, Hikari might have just sneered.
But now, almost everyone in the Land of Light knew that Zod was an existence standing at the same height as their King of the Land of Light, that legendary warrior, and was even a hero who had saved the Land of Light.
Words spoken from his mouth naturally carried a certain degree of credibility.
Seeing him like this, Zod did not continue to stimulate him, but said with a relaxed tone:
"Of course, perhaps the facts are not so. Perhaps it is precisely because a certain quality that your race already possessed was recognized by the Universe's will that you were chosen."
However, Hikari did not take this sentence in but kept thinking deeply.
Because for Blue-tribe scientists like them, it is easiest to get into a dead end, and Zod didn't bother with him anymore.
Since the experiment to replicate the plasma spark energy core ended in failure, Zod was not prepared to continue wasting time in this place.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Tregear did not hesitate at all and immediately followed him.
Then, he directly stated his purpose: "Mr. Zod, can you let me follow by your side?"
Hearing this, Zod looked at him with a scrutinizing attitude and said: "I am going to leave the Land of Light, and even this Universe, next. Are you going to follow me and leave too?"
"I have always been confused about my own existence, and I want to follow by your side to find the answer."
Zod asked back: "How can you be sure that you can get the answer you want from me?"
To this, Tregear only said with an earnest tone: "I am not sure, but I trust my intuition."
"Then keep up!"
After saying that, Zod headed out.
