Volume 1, Chapter 120: Taking Action

Barossa was startled; he had just witnessed that this Galaxy Hunter possessed treasures far superior to his own. If he were to trade them all, he would be making a massive profit!

"No problem!" Barossa didn't even hesitate, tossing the mask over immediately. After all, to him, the mask was nothing more than a collector’s item with no practical use. If he were to return to his original universe, it might even invite a death sentence; if he could trade it for a pile of treasures, it was definitely a win!

The mask traced a parabola through the air, and Ignis’s eyes burned with anticipation as he reached out to catch it. But at that moment, the mask suddenly defied gravity, made a sharp right-angle turn, and flew rapidly in another direction, landing in the hands of a stranger.

Seeing his item end up in someone else's hands for no reason, Ignis flew into a rage, shouting, "You bastard, give my mask back!"

"Your mask?" Tregear smacked his lips and unceremoniously placed the mask on his face. "Sorry, this is mine."

As he spoke, the mask clicked and expanded, and two deepening streams of red light washed over Tregear’s body, revealing his true form.

"Ah!"

Watching the sudden transformation into Tregear, Barossa’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He stammered, "Tre-Tre-Tre-Tre... Tregear!!!"

"What did you say? He is Tregear?!" Ignis was also stunned. He had just heard Barossa say that Tregear’s power was immense; even without mentioning his strength, just looking at the creature’s stature, a single stomp would be enough to crush him!

"Give the Spark Lens back to me as well." Tregear’s tone allowed for no refusal. With a flick of his fingers, several rays of light drifted from Barossa’s body and returned to his hand. Tregear did not keep the Spark Lens; instead, he turned and flung them outward with a sudden motion.

"Roar!!"
"Awoo!!!"
"Goo-goo-goo!!"

The red, blue, and purple Spark Lenses transformed into three auroras in the sky, manifesting three massive monsters.

Boom!

With a thunderous sound, all three monsters landed. Tregear’s arrival had already drawn the attention of various factions, but the appearance of these three monsters shocked everyone even further.

In the center stood a humanoid monster with a reddish-yellow face and a body covered in layered, flexible armor. Its presence was so overwhelming that the moment it appeared, the sky darkened, blotting out the sun. On the left was the familiar Golza, though its muscles were unnaturally dense, as if housing explosive power. The third was a robotic monster, silver-white in color, with two massive iron swords attached to its arms—the infamous Galactron from across the cosmos!

The moment the three monsters appeared, a massive pressure spread outward, leaving all the humans on Earth gasping for air.

"W-what is that!" exclaimed Kengo, who had just returned to the Nursedessei with Yao Hui. Akito immediately began searching the database, but aside from Golza, there was no information on the other two.

Yao Hui stood up and said, "That is Greeza and Galactron. I never expected this spacetime to harbor such powerful monsters!"

The appearance of the three monsters and Tregear also caught the attention of Carmeara and her companions. However, their eyes remained fixed on Greeza, as the aura it emitted was not a shred weaker than any of them.

A cosmic-class monster!

In their shock, Hudram suddenly realized that the three monsters had targeted them. Three beams of destructive energy filled their field of vision in an instant.

"Watch out!" Darrgon finally snapped out of it, rising to his feet and hurriedly erecting a dark red energy barrier.

Boom!

The beams struck the barrier with the force of a meteorite hitting an asteroid, the resulting shockwave destroying everything in the immediate vicinity. Even the mechanical King Joe, which had been lying on the ground, was sent flying into the distance.

"Damn it, those guys dare to attack us!" Carmeara angrily whipped out her light whip, flew into the air, and as she swung her arm, her figure expanded instantly. Hudram and Darrgon followed suit.

All three grew to giant size, standing in a standoff against the three monsters.

As the light whip lashed out, Greeza didn't even move to dodge, instead emitting a bizarre sound like the crying of an infant.

"Hmph!" Carmeara scoffed in disdain, but a second later, her beautiful eyes widened in shock.

The whip passed straight through Greeza's body as if striking thin air, causing no physical damage whatsoever.

"Roar—"

At that moment, Golza let out a wild howl, firing a beam from its mouth. The beam was dark red, and wherever it passed, the air itself seemed to twist as if hit by a volcanic eruption.

Hudram fired a beam as well, and while locked in the clash, he said to Carmeara and Darrgon, "These monsters aren't here to play. Shall we retreat?"

Darrgon nodded, agreeing with the suggestion. But Carmeara, fueled by rage, was in no mood to stop. As a ruler of darkness, when had she ever been treated with such disrespect?

"What are you afraid of? He might not even be a match for me!" Carmeara shouted, and with a wave of her hand, a terrifying surge of dark power erupted.

*Crackle, crackle...*

The surrounding space shattered like a mirror, pressing down upon Greeza and the other two monsters with world-destroying force.

"This woman’s power is not bad," Tregear thought, secretly admiring Carmeara, though it did not change his desire to seize the Eternity Core. Yes, although he had never seen the Eternity Core, he had intuited from the Dark Giants' conversation that it was a potent source of power—enough, perhaps, to restore his own strength... probably?

Tregear was uncertain; having not yet seen the core of that power, he did not want to pin all his hopes on it.

As the dark force bore down, the three monsters stood before Tregear like three thick iron walls.

Boom!

Carmeara’s power was immense; before the attack even landed, the space groaned. The three monsters quickly erected a defense, fusing their energies into an indestructible barrier.

Boom!

Another massive explosion occurred as the dark force smashed into the barrier. It trembled violently, but within a few seconds, the attack was completely neutralized.

"What!" Carmeara’s pupils contracted, and she finally regained a shred of reason amidst her shock, a desire to retreat forming in her heart.
