Chapter 53 The Light We Need to Ignite Ourselves
Chen Bo stared intently at the data in Bilibili's backend, feeling like he was on a rollercoaster.
Just now, episode 25 suddenly saw an influx of over a million people.
The server crashed, and the entire live stream, including the comment section, chat area, and episodes, was completely frozen, causing a ten-minute outage.
Bilibili's programmers worked overtime, cursing and swearing, to finish fixing the problem. What followed was a flood of comments and bullet screens, a heart-wrenching outburst after a period of desperate silence.
"Brother Nan, I can't take it anymore, I really can't take it anymore!"
Chen Bo couldn't hold back any longer.
"During the ten minutes that the game was stuck, our official Weibo account/Bilibili private messages exploded with over 30,000 messages, all begging you to bring Ultraman back to life and not kill him off..."
Some people even said, "If Tiga is gone just like that, I'll never watch tokusatsu again for the rest of my life! I'll even come and kill you through the internet!"
Zhao Rui's "Qiao Tianzun" company was in a state of jubilation at this time.
"Gu Nan is digging his own grave! Looks like he can't beat us, so he's planning to kill off the protagonist and quit!"
Zhao Rui sneered as he scrolled through the trending topics, while simultaneously hiring online trolls.
"Keep pushing! Just say Gu Nanqian has run out of tricks and can only rely on killing off the main character to make people cry!"
However, Gu Nan sat in front of the computer, looking at the silent giant on the earth on the screen.
"Despair?"
But it's the hope that springs from despair, the possibility that blossoms from the impossible, that's the charm of Ultraman.
Without the ultimate black, how can we highlight the impending, all-shattering ultimate light?
……
Once the server was repaired, the video feed resumed.
Jinghai City fell into an unprecedented silence.
In the sky, the enormous gates of hell were already half open, and countless purple mists spewed out from them, completely obscuring the once brilliant starry sky.
Jinghai City fell into a deathly silence.
Those citizens who had once thrown stones at Ultraman Tiga were now staring blankly at the gate overflowing with a thick, purplish-black mist.
The so-called "redemption" did not come; instead, it was a kind of oppression that made even the soul tremble.
"Is this... the future we want?"
A food delivery driver pushing an electric scooter was talking to himself.
"Tiga is dead... What about the angels?"
"That's not how it should be, it shouldn't be like this!"
Fear began to spread.
At that moment, all the video walls, outdoor screens, mobile terminals, and even car stereos suddenly emitted a piercing electrical sound.
With Nori's help, Izumi Megumi's face, marked with blood but still resolute, forcefully entered the city's signal.
"Citizens of Jinghai City, I am Megumi Kijima, captain of the Victory Team of the Earth Peace Alliance."
Her voice echoed in the empty streets, on people's cell phones, and on the large screens in the city center...
"I know you are afraid, and I know you feel betrayed. But look closely, the giant who fell to protect us was not some high and mighty god!"
The camera suddenly zoomed in, focusing on Tigana lying on the ground, his body covered in dust and dull.
"Please remember the past. Wasn't it always Ultraman Tiga who stepped forward to protect us whenever we faced danger?"
The scene depicts Ultraman Tiga battling other monsters.
"He feels pain too, he gets tired too! The reason he gets up again and again is because he treats us like family! Ultraman isn't a god, he needs our support too!"
Megumi's voice was almost a scream: "If this world is truly destined to fall into darkness, then we ourselves will light it up!"
"Those aren't angels! Those who call themselves angels are the devils!!"
Gradually, some people began to realize this.
Furthermore, since Tiga was already dead, the mental control exerted by the Kirieloids gradually dissipated.
Megumi Kijima's voice has awakened more and more people.
"Now that Tiga has fallen, it's our turn to give him strength!"
"I implore everyone! Give Ultraman Tiga light!"
"Give the light to Ultraman Tiga!!!"
In this deathly silence, the first response came as no one expected.
On the top floor of the mansion of the late husband of the resident, Chiki opened the window.
His face was streaked with tears, but he was clutching the remote control of a modified drone tightly in his hand.
"Mom...I believe you!"
Zhi Shu was adjusting the computer while controlling the drone.
The modified drones, which had been silently lurking in the corner, suddenly emitted a high-frequency buzzing sound, like a shooting star shooting against the current, instantly piercing the darkness.
A high-intensity industrial-grade searchlight is suspended below the drone.
Here are some of Gu Nan's adaptations of the original drama.
After all, according to the original story, Tomoki hacked into the entire capital's power grid.
However, in modern Beijing, let alone hacking into the power grid, the possibility is extremely slim.
Jinghai itself is a city that never sleeps.
Therefore, Zhi Shu is not only a computer genius, but also a master of drone programming.
Dozens of drones flew into the battlefield in the dark!
"Buzz—!"
The drones hovered precisely above the dark timer of the Tiga, and dozens of dazzling white lights instantly illuminated the silent heart.
Immediately afterwards, drones also rose from other buildings in the city, shining their light on Tiga...
For a little boy to be able to emit such a faint light is already quite remarkable. Although it is small, it is the "first shot" that illuminates the entire city.
"Look! That's light!"
Someone pointed to the sky and shouted.
As if it were some kind of chain reaction, the emotions that had been suppressed to the extreme exploded at this moment.
People have gradually broken free from the control of the Kirieloids.
The delivery guy was the first to turn on the headlights of his electric scooter.
"Tiga! I'm sorry! I was wrong! Please stand up!"
Immediately afterwards, taxis, private cars, and even drivers of the Universiade all headed towards the battlefield!
Without exception, they all turned all their car lights to their brightest setting, the blinding beams of light converging towards the city center.
Inside the residential building, lamps, ceiling lights, flashlights, and even cell phone flashlights were all turned on.
Everything that could emit light shone upon Ultraman Tiga at that moment.
"Light it up! Light it all up!"
The searchlights in the suburban factories turned on, and the neon lights in the city malls were all turned on.
The once lifeless city of Jinghai was transformed into daytime in just one minute!
The lights of countless homes converged into a sea of light, piercing a hole through the dark clouds!
The comment section exploded at that moment.
Send light to Ultraman Tiga!!!
【I'm turning on all the lights in the house right now!】
Even though I'm just watching a show, I really want to jump into it and help him!
The camera then began to switch rapidly through the streets and alleys of Jinghai City.
"That's what the delivery guy shouted."
"To hell with angels! I'm from China, I don't believe in God at all! Ultraman Tiga, stand up! You are our hope!"
"Keep it up!!"
"Those damn aliens! They dared to invade my brain! Tiga! Take them down!"
"Tiga, stand up!"
Immediately afterwards, the drivers who had turned on their headlights also honked their horns to cheer for Ultraman Tiga.
The visual impact reached its peak at this moment.
The camera cuts to an old residential area.
An elderly woman with white hair climbed shakily onto the windowsill, turned on her grandson's toy laser pointer, and pointed it at the giant lying on the ground in the distance.
The camera cuts to a highway intersection.
Countless private car owners stuck in traffic pushed open their car doors and got out, raising their smartphones and turning on the flashlights behind them.
a little.
Two points.
10,000 points.
A few scattered lights!
That is not just the light of countless homes! It is also humanity's gift of light!
The background music underwent a dramatic change at this moment.
It was no longer a dull and oppressive orchestral piece, but a variation of the theme song with a highly explosive prelude, meticulously remixed by Gu Nan!
"Look! What's that!"
In the video, Ye Rui exclaims in surprise.
"Tiga, I'm sorry, please stand up!"
"You are our hero, we believe in the light!"
In mid-air, the second-generation Kirieloid, who was frantically trying to pry open the "Gates of Heaven," panicked.
He just wanted to come up and help open the door, but suddenly the ground beneath his feet turned into an ocean of light.
It flapped its wings desperately, trying to suppress the light with dark energy.
"Impossible! How could mere human power possibly..."
"boom--!"
Tiga's previously dormant body suddenly trembled violently in the ocean of light, as if every inch of his skin was infused with the pulse of new life.
A faint blue light, like a spark, quietly ignited within the color timer on his chest!
The blue light did not linger; in an instant, it spread rapidly like wildfire, the intense light penetrating the frame of the timer and giving the surrounding golden ocean an even richer warmth.
A moment later, the timer burst into a dazzling light!
That was a pure and dazzling golden radiance!
As the light flowed, countless light particles leaped and rose within it, making Tiga's body shine even brighter!
At this moment! Ultraman Tiga awakens anew with overwhelming power!
At this moment, the entire internet was in an uproar.
At that moment, the number of viewers in the Bilibili live stream room instantly exceeded five million.
Second only to the New Year's Festival in terms of data!
Ultraman Tiga! He's risen!!!
[Director Gu, I'm bowing down to you! This localization of an ancient Japanese IP is absolutely brilliant!]
The moment I saw the delivery guy turn on the light, I burst into tears.
Ultraman Tiga! He's risen!!!
Holy crap, these special effects gave me goosebumps!
[So cool!! So damn cool!!!]
[At this moment! He has already been deified!]
