Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, night came.

The body of Zijera, which had been spreading pollen and fragrance, fell silent, standing on the plain as if asleep.

At the same time, the Zijella flowers blooming around the world also stopped their activities, and all the confused humans woke up from their dreams.

But as Krista said before, humans who woke up from their happy dreams fell into the pain of real life.

They began to show symptoms of addiction, craving for pollen from Zijera, wanting to return to that happy world again.

Even the members of the Victory Team at the Earth Defense Force's Far East Headquarters began to show signs of weakness.

As a time traveler, Christa is naturally very clear about this.

So she did not ask Zhang Gu to go back to the meeting, for fear that he would lose his newly inspired determination because of this meeting.

However, how could Ning Yi, Fan Xian and Qin Zhaowei let her succeed so easily?

With just some small tricks, they 'accidentally' opened the surveillance network of Sediq Company.

Through the holographic projection screen that appeared on the cave console, Dagu still saw the scene of the Victory Team’s meeting.

All members of the Victory Team, including captain Iruma Kei and vice-captain Sokata Seiichi, were hesitant about whether to deal with Zigela.

Even the former Director-General and Secretary-General of the United Nations, founder of the United Nations for Global Peace, Director Soichiro Sawai, implicitly expressed his unwillingness to become an enemy of all human beings in the world because of Zijella.

Of course, that's what they said, but Daigu and Krista both understood that Director Sawai was also fascinated by the effects of Zijera pollen.

"how so……"

Dagu staggered back a few steps, looking at the screen in a daze.

At the same time, Krista finally turned off the holographic projection and gritted her teeth and said, "Who is it?!"

She finally realized that there was a mastermind behind all this who was controlling everything.

The giant stone statue of light that disappeared inexplicably was most likely moved away by the mastermind behind the incident.

"Who is it?"

“Who on earth is it?!”

Christa stared at the screen in front of her angrily, her hands constantly tapping on the keyboard, trying to find the surveillance video in which the statue disappeared.

But unfortunately, the mastermind behind the scenes was too thoughtful, and no matter what she did, she couldn't find any clues.

“Bang!”

Christa suddenly tapped the keyboard, stood up angrily, snatched the magic stick from Dagu who had not yet come to his senses, and inserted it directly into the groove of the light factor converter.

"...Damn it, don't you just want Daiko to transform into Tiga?"

"Okay, I'll do it then!"

"Once I kill Zijera, I will definitely catch all of you and crush you to pieces!"

Christa thought with gritted teeth and activated the light factor converter without hesitation.

In an instant, blue and white sparks burst out from the four obelisks, and the magic light stick inserted into the light factor converter also burst into dazzling white light.

Seeing this scene, Dagu finally came to his senses and stood up in shock.

Qin Zhaowei next to him blinked and whispered, "Old Ning, are we going too far?"

Ning Yi smiled and said, "A little bit, but there is nothing I can do. The alliance is not the same as before. The test is really a test. After Christa avenged her father, the thing she cared about most became the power of the Giant of Light."

"This is her obsession, and it is also her weakness that will most likely prevent her from passing the test."

"If she can give up her obsession in order to save the world, even at the cost of transforming into a monster, then this assessment will be nothing to her, and the subsequent reviews will all be green-lighted and she will be allowed to pass."

Fan Xian nodded and said, "That's the truth, but..."

As he said this, he turned his head to look at the blonde girl on the platform who was gradually turning into light, and said in a somewhat strange tone: "Why do I feel that the reason why she turned into a monster is not right?"

Accompanied by the sound of jingling bells, the blonde girl completely turned into light under the effect of the magic stick and the light factor converter.

A pale golden light bloomed from the center of the four obelisks and flew towards the timer on the chest of the monster statue.

In the blink of an eye, the light merged into the timer, and the original stone timer turned into an energetic blue light.

The huge stone statue also restored its original appearance under the influence of light, turning back to its original metallic purple-black color.

To be honest, judging from its appearance alone, this super ancient Komainu monster can be said to be extremely good-looking.

His entire body is covered with purple-black scales like steel armor. His body is sturdy and mighty, with three pairs of majestic dragon horns on his head. His whole body is as mighty and majestic as a dragon version of Godzilla.

Let's put it this way, if Qin Zhaowei was asked to choose between his original image and the image of this monster, he would definitely give up the silly giant panda without hesitation and choose to become this mighty dragon beast.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the original black and white iron-eating beast bloodline can also be transferred...

"roar!"

The fifty-meter-tall monster roared, and the thick metal door above its head slowly opened.

Seeing this scene, Da Gu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wait, this is——"

Before she finished her words, the monster transformed by Krista jumped out of the open metal door.

The heavy body weighing 48,000 tons fell on the square in front of the headquarters building of Sediq Company. In just a moment, two huge pits were created and his feet sank deeply into the hard ground.

A mighty-looking monster suddenly appeared in the center of Kumamoto City, but it did not cause much sensation.

Because the Sediq Company was already empty at this time, the original staff had already left the city of Kumamoto together with the residents of Kumamoto in various vehicles and headed towards the main body of Zijera on the plains in the suburbs.

They plan to ask Zijera's real body for pollen and return to the dream world where there is only happiness and joy.

Thanks to their desire for Zijella's pollen, Christa's first transformation did not cause much panic.

But even so, after seeing the high-rise buildings like a steel jungle in front of her, Christa, who had just woken up from her anger, couldn't help but feel scared.

“…That was a close call!”

"It almost turned into a monster!"

Krista felt relieved and then walked cautiously towards the outside of Kumamoto City.

Although her motivation for transformation was not quite to Guang's liking, it didn't matter. The powerful soul of the traveler from the source world still enabled her to quickly master this body and she did not go out of control like Masaki Keigo.

Of course, the yellow puppy also helped a bit.

It was also angry at Qin Zhaowei and the other two who had stolen the stone statue of its master, and therefore vaguely shared the same mood as Christa at the moment.

Soon, a super ancient Komainu monster that was 52 meters tall appeared on the plain.

All the humans surrounding Zijera were startled and looked at the monster with horror on their faces.

"It's...it's a monster!"

"What is he going to do?"

"Is it to destroy Zijera?!"

What is different from the original plot is that these addicted humans are not just standing by and watching.

Many people actually angrily blocked Christa's path, either blocking her with vehicles or directly resisting with their bodies.

In short, they could not tolerate another monster killing Zigela.

"Get out of here, monster!"

"We must not let him hurt Zigela!"

Thousands of humans' angry curses came from under the monster's feet.

If it were Tiga, he might have hesitated because of this.

But Christa wouldn't, she sneered and took a step forward, ignoring the attacks of all stupid humans, and strode towards Zijera.

A moment later, Christa came in front of Zijera, and the light energy storage organs in her body started to work rapidly, condensing a ball of azure energy light in her chest.

The next second, a deep blue energy ray blasted out, shooting towards the purple-yellow flower bud on Qijiela's chest.

In an instant, the ground cracked, and extremely thick root vines emerged from the ground, interweaving in front of Qijiela, forming a giant vine shield that was twenty to thirty meters thick.

As a monster that can put Tiga in a tough fight, Zijera's physical abilities are naturally very powerful.

Its root vines can extend freely and are extremely powerful. The defensive strength of its skin can even withstand Tiga's hand knife attack, and it can also release electric current to deliver energy attacks.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, azure blue light hit the giant vine shield, blasting a huge hole in the thick shield.

Then, the ground beneath Christa's feet cracked, and an equally thick root vine stretched out from the ground and wrapped around her legs.

Christa sneered, raised her thighs as thick as tall buildings, and stomped hard on the vines under her feet.

“Puff——”

The thick vines shrank instantly under the weight of 48,000 tons, and green juice splashed out.

At the same time, a ball of azure energy gathered again at Christa's chest, and with a beam of blue light, she successfully shattered the vine shield and shot towards the Zijera bud behind her.

But unfortunately, the blue light that penetrated the vine shield was not enough to kill Zijera, it could only cause it severe pain.

"roar!"

A roar of an unidentifiable species was heard, and Zijera's entire body seemed to wake up. Thick roots and vines extended from his body, dancing wildly in the air like a demon.

Christa took a step forward, dodging and stepping on the vines under her feet as she approached Zijera's body.

She finally understood why Dagu liked close combat.

Because the energy consumed by light technology is too much!

After just two beam skills, Christa felt that the energy stored in her body had been reduced by one third.

This is mainly because the monster statue has been dormant for too long and has little energy in its body, so it needs to be used sparingly.

Accompanied by the tremors coming from the earth, Christa finally approached Zijera's body and started fighting with him.

At this moment, the Victory Team's 'Flying Swallow' appeared in the distant sky.

The pilots sitting in the Hiyan were none other than Daiko's teammates, Reina Nanase and Tetsuo Shinjo.

At this moment, looking at the two monsters fighting each other below, Lina and Xincheng couldn't help but show hesitation on their faces.

They were hesitating whether the Victory Team should help Zigela or help this strange monster that suddenly appeared.

"...They're all monsters anyway, so it shouldn't matter which one we kill first, right?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Tetsuo Shinjo looked down and murmured.

In a trance, his heart, which was corroded by the pollen of Zijera, subconsciously made a choice.

Then, a high-energy laser beam shot out from the laser cannon at the tip of the Feiyan and shot towards Christa's back.

At this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed, and a familiar tall figure fell from the sky, with his arms crossed, holding up an Ultra Light Shield to block the attack from behind for Christa.

“…It’s Tiga!”

Lina and Shinjo stared at the silver, blue and red giant of light in amazement.

The former hurriedly pressed down the joystick, maneuvering the Victory Swallow to circle in the air, and after circling half a circle, it pointed its front towards the battlefield again.

At this time, Tiga had already lowered his arms.

He raised his head with a determined look, looked at Lina and Xincheng who were in shock, shook his head, then turned around and swung his knife at Zijera's vines without hesitation, choosing to join Christa's camp.
