Chapter 7: A Bountiful Harvest, Obtained a Grade B entry.
Originally, he was still immersed in the disappointment of possibly returning empty-handed, and he secretly thought that this expedition was probably going to be fruitless.
However, fate always seems to throw unexpected surprises at him when he least expects them.
Destruction and salvation are also brothers.
Thinking about it this way, this system doesn't seem to have any limitations, and we still need to explore its future functions.
Lin Yeming glanced at the somewhat nervous Daigo, a sly glint in his eyes, and a confident smile curled at the corner of his lips.
After making the decision to save the monster, he had already planned out his next move.
Now let's see his performance.
Naga slowly extended his palm and gently covered Gakuma's massive head.
Instantly, a dazzling beam of cell-conversion light surged from his palm, enveloping Gakuma's entire body.
Under the influence of the beam of light, Gakuma's emotions gradually calmed down.
His red eyes regained their clarity, becoming as clear and clean as the eyes of a college freshman.
However, he encountered some resistance when he was changing his body shape.
Compared to the one-horned Gakuma, the two-horned Gakuma is stronger and consumes more energy.
Although he continued to release energy, his body transformation was still much slower.
As the beam continued, his timer began to flash wildly.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong..." The urgent sound was particularly jarring in the silent air, drawing everyone's attention.
"What on earth is Naga up to?" Horii frowned, his eyes full of doubt and confusion.
"Is he trying to...save this monster?" Lina's voice was filled with shock and disbelief.
"My God, how is this possible? That monster... it's actually shrinking!" Exclamations of surprise rose and fell around them, everyone was so shocked by this sudden change that they were speechless.
Zongfang couldn't help but say, "Why continue when you clearly lack energy?"
After he finished speaking, a thought suddenly popped into his mind: what would happen if Ultraman ran out of energy?
Will I die?
Zong Fang interrupted this train of thought, not daring to continue thinking about it.
On the Naga side, the battle was finally coming to an end, and Gakuma's size had finally shrunk.
He turned around, nodded at Tiga, leaped up, and left with Gakuma.
Naga took Gakuma and the others to a planet unsuitable for human habitation, settled them in, and then said goodbye and left.
On the other side, Tiga followed suit and used the Restoration Ray to restore all the petrified equipment before leaving.
Horii sensed something was off: "This Naga Ultraman seems to be guiding Tiga?"
What does he mean?
Lina excitedly pointed to the Victory Swallow 1 flying towards them and said, "Look, it's Daigo!"
"He's back!"
After Daigo got off the plane, he told them that when he and Rena were rescued, he volunteered to stay there to repair the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1.
At this moment, Lin Yeming also appeared in front of them. Seeing that no one was injured or killed, Zong Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go back."
The members of the Victory Team nodded and boarded the Flying Swallow to return to base.
Sitting on the plane, Lin Yeming pretended to close his eyes and rest. He opened the system panel, and the task challenge from earlier began to be settled.
[Congratulations, host, for saving Gakuma. You have been granted two opportunities to copy the monster's entry.]
[Congratulations, host! You have successfully guided Ultraman Tiga to use the Restoration Ray. You have been granted one opportunity to copy an entry.]
[Congratulations, host! You have fulfilled the hidden condition. You have been granted an additional opportunity to copy the Gakuma entry and an additional opportunity to copy the Tiga entry.]
"Holy crap, what's going on? There are hidden conditions?"
Lin Yeming had a headache; the system's challenge tasks were too general.
He still hasn't figured out what the rules are.
He initially thought that killing monsters was enough, but he could also receive rewards when he helped Daigo achieve a certain goal.
If they have anything in common, it's that they helped each other.
Killing monsters is a human need.
Therefore, there is a reward.
This time is different; this time it's about helping both the monster and humanity.
The more Lin Yeming thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Otherwise, is this system some kind of charity?
But you clearly called it plunder...
You have five chances to copy this entry. Do you want to copy it?
"First copy the entry for Gakuma, then copy the entry for Tiga."
[Randomly copying... Copying complete!]
[Congratulations! You have copied three attributes from Gakuma: Ancient Gene (Rank D), Petrifying Ray (Rank C), and Powerful Heart (Rank D).]
Lin Ming glanced at it and saw three entries: two D-level and one C-level.
Given Gakuma's strength, having a C-rank attribute is already quite good.
The first item is practically a safety net, but it can enhance overall strength, so it's quite useful for him.
He could tell the strength of the other two from their ratings.
Powerful Heart: It maintains accurate beating even during strenuous exercise, ensuring that it doesn't disrupt the body's condition during combat.
Petrifying Ray: Fires a blue beam that petrifies anything it hits.
This powerful heart seems to be suitable for human hosts, and it has a great effect on them.
The heart is like this: too fast is bad, and too slow is also bad.
It's a pretty good entry, and it's nice that it can enhance the human form.
Kai, who's on the next set, has a very strong physique.
Although the description of the petrifying beam was very simple, he knew how powerful the term was just by reading the second half of the sentence.
This means that he is a term that can grow, or rather, can improve through his abilities.
He's currently at Rank C not because he's only Rank C, but because the Naga's strength is still too low.
Tiga also possesses similar control skills, only he uses ice.
After reading these entries, he looked at the entries copied from Ultraman Tiga.
[Congratulations! You have copied two attributes from Ultraman Tiga. You have obtained Healing Ray (Rank D) and Lampard Light Bullet (Rank B).]
Lin Yeming looked at the entries copied from Ultraman Tiga and his face lit up with joy.
Sure enough, Tiga has too many good things on him.
If this continues, he'll eventually be ripped off.
Another B-level entry has appeared.
He recognized the skill; it was a deadly move.
Ultraman Tiga is forever a god, and I'm definitely going to be a fan of him.
Healing Ray: Place your hand on the injured area, and the wound will heal in a short time.
This skill...
I'm healing myself?
Unfortunately, it has too many limitations.
No wonder it's only rated D.
Lampard Light Arrow: Fires a high-explosive arrow of light to pierce through enemies. It has relatively low destructive power but is launched at an extremely fast speed.
Lin Yeming was wrong as expected. This was indeed a finishing move, although it was a minor one, but it was very useful in aerial combat.
He remembered that in the original story, Melba died from this attack.
Just when Lin Yeming thought it was over, the system notifications were still scrolling, and he saw a message that made him so excited he almost stood up.
[Your healing rays have been fused with the cell-transforming beam, and the entry has been upgraded.]
Your cell transformation beam has been enhanced.
Lin Yeming glanced at it. Although it was an attribute upgrade, the description of the skill effect hadn't changed because the attribute itself had huge potential. However, he had a vague feeling that he could also use Ultraman Tiga's Repair Ray.
If restoring the light can save lives, then perhaps those who died because of the monsters can be saved.
Of course, even if it were possible to find the body, his energy wouldn't allow it.
Therefore, he still needs to work harder; his skills are still too lacking.
He was about to close the panel when the system notifications continued.
[It has been integrated with ancient genes and a powerful heart.]
[You have fully integrated ancient genes and a powerful heart, elevating your life level to C-grade.]
! !
The human being's level of life has been elevated.
Could he also use this method to ascend to the legendary ultimate life form?
Although he didn't know how many hurdles he would have to overcome, he knew that as long as he kept going, he would definitely succeed.
Thinking of this, he opened the panel to take a look.

As soon as Lin Yeming stepped off the Victory Flying Swallow, he sprinted towards the toilet, leaving the Victory Team members stunned.
Horii chuckled and said, "Dr. Hayashi ran so fast, it seems he really has been holding back for too long..."
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Only Daigo stared at Lin Yeming's retreating figure with a puzzled expression.
He felt that Dr. Lin's overall condition had improved considerably, and he didn't seem to be in a state of urgent need to urinate.
The others had the same goal, but they weren't going to the command center.
"You... also need to go to the toilet."
"of course."
Horii smiled and then took off running.
Everyone was stunned. Xincheng realized he was too late and started running too.
Zongfang followed closely behind.
In the end, Daigo and Rena walked side by side.
There was a reason why Lin Yeming suddenly took off running.
As soon as he entered the toilet, he locked himself in and closed his eyes to feel the changes brought about by his level of life.
First, my physical condition has improved, and my heart rate has stabilized.
The most obvious improvement is that his nearsightedness has been cured, and he no longer needs to wear glasses.
But that would make it too obvious.
After thinking about it, he decided to make a decorative pair of glasses.
After he had settled in, he pushed open the door and went out, returning to the command room.
Ever since the monster appeared, the GUTS team has been conducting post-battle debriefings.
Captain Megumi frowned: "Isn't this Ultraman Naga the one who killed Melba with a single punch?"
She was somewhat surprised, "It actually went to save the monster!"
"This Ultraman fights monsters and saves them?"
“Captain, I think there must be some connection here. I don’t think Ultraman is a bad guy,” Lina said in a deep voice.
"Although Ultraman Naga's actions today shocked us, they also gave us a new perspective. Perhaps we can try to coexist peacefully with monsters."
After seeing Naga's actions, Daigo couldn't calm down.
He knew the legends there; Gakuma was clearly not the kind of monster that only knew how to destroy. If he were to attack such a monster, he... simply couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Peaceful coexistence?" Horii shook his head. "That's too difficult. The monsters are too powerful, and we can't predict their behavior."
"Moreover, we have no way to communicate with it."
"If we can't communicate, how can we coexist peacefully?"
"After all, it's a monster!"
Although Shinjo is a hot-blooded guy, he knows that fighting monsters isn't about hot-bloodedness: "Don't we have a language translator?"
"Could we try using a language translator?"
Everyone fell silent. Captain Megumi looked at her team members, her heart filled with complex emotions.
She knew Lina was right; someone had to try. But the path was too difficult, full of unknowns and dangers.
However, at that moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang out in the base: "Captain, try using the language translator."
Everyone turned around and saw Lin Yeming standing at the door with a confident smile on his face.
"Dr. Yeming, you're back."
What are your thoughts?
Megumi was eager to know why Director Sawai valued Lin Yeming so much, and her tone carried a hint of delight and inquiry.
But the next second, Lin Yeming's words made the hairs on her body stand on end.
Lin Yeming didn't answer directly, but instead asked Ye Rui a question that everyone knew: "Ye Rui, what are the main components of the Earth?"
Without hesitation, Ye Rui replied, "Of course, it's water and land."
Realizing what he was doing, he asked in surprise, "Why are you asking this?"
Upon hearing this answer, everyone's faces turned serious.
Yes, there are only two main things in this world.
The problem is that Gakuma emerged from underground.
What about the seabed?
As the most mysterious place, the seabed is essentially a forbidden zone for human life.
Ye Rui swallowed hard and said, "If Gakuma comes out from underground, what about in the forest, the mountains, or the deep sea?"
"That's not all. Now that the mythical beasts from the book have appeared, what about those ferocious demons and monsters?"
"In my opinion, Ye Rui, your task is very difficult."
Lin Yeming said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Megumi Kijima could no longer sit still. He immediately instructed Norizumi to request a connection with Director Sawai.
Not long after, Director Sawai's image appeared on the screen.
After Megumi told Sawai everything they had discussed, she...
He pondered for a moment and said, "I will implement Dr. Lin's suggestions one by one."
"Upgrade and adjust the language translation equipment, monitor abnormal situations in major areas, and develop weapons to deal with the monsters as soon as possible."
"In addition, Lin Yeming is appointed as the head of the GUTS Monster Countermeasures Planning Section, led by Iruma Megumi."
Megumi Kijima agreed with Lin Yeming's appointment, but she was worried that the GUTS team was short-handed if they needed to specifically deal with monsters. "But... Director, the world is so big. If monsters appear in other places, the GUTS team won't be able to get there in time."
"I will notify other divisions to also carry out weapon modifications."
"Yes!"
After intense discussion, everyone decided that they would negotiate based on the actual situation.
The Victory Team holds a superior position; apart from Director Sawai, no one else can object.
For the next month, everything was calm and peaceful.
Whenever he had time, Lin Yeming would transform into a Naga and go to other planets to find the two little ones. Later, at the request of the two little ones, he brought them back.
An otherwise ordinary day was disrupted by a strange cloud that suddenly appeared.
Lin Yeming remembered very clearly that several scientists would die there.
If he can save her, that would be great...
Now let's see if there's any progress on language translation machines.
This is an opportunity to persuade the winning team.
