Chapter 226 Selfish Desire or Justice?
"So, shouldn't we get down to business? What exactly do you want to tell us, Max?"
Huilia didn't want to spend too much time on romance. Right now, the entire Magicians' Guild was focused on capturing otherworldly monsters, and the remnants of Grandi's faction would probably not have a good ending.
To be honest, Huilia wasn't really interested in protecting those space monsters. He rescued the otherworldly monsters purely to go against the guild, and had no other intentions.
“Eighty-four Earth days have passed since you first came into this world, and during this time, information about this world has been gradually transmitted into the universe.”
"Initially, I received a signal while passing through this galaxy. I discovered that humans were sending messages into outer space. I talked to that person to learn about things on this planet and made an unexpected discovery."
After saying that, Max deployed a projection in the subspace, which contained data from the Land of Light, including records of the interdimensional invasion ten years ago.
"Ten years ago in this world, there was a strange alien invasion. The fully armed aliens entered this planet, but they all left with amnesia, having no memory of anything about this planet."
"I'm very sorry, but ten years ago the Land of Light was dealing with a riot by the Galactic Empire in a parallel world and was suppressed by the cosmic black market. We didn't know about the fate of this planet, and even if we wanted to know later, we had no way of finding out."
"So how did you do that? Did you tell the Land of Light about this planet?"
Huilia raised doubts, not ruling out the possibility that the planetary information was leaked from the Land of Light, since the secrecy of that place could never be overestimated.
"No, after comparing the data and discovering that this is the planet from ten years ago, I modified the star map, changing it to a desolate planet with a harsh climate, where any life form would be in danger if it approached this star system."
"This effect is very effective. No one in the universe would risk going to a bad galaxy, as it is not worth it in terms of either cost or benefit."
"This peace lasted until a few months ago, when a Phantom Luo who escaped from a dimensional rift accidentally came to this world, and that's how the story of summoning you began."
"I am an observer of planetary civilizations and cannot monitor this world indefinitely. I am glad that you have successfully protected this place."
Max put away the projector and expressed his appreciation to Zeta and Huilia, which was a rare recognition for Zeta, who had always stayed true to her original aspirations.
Huilia didn't care much about verbal honors; he preferred tangible things.
“We know most of these things, so let’s talk about some things we don’t know.”
"Alright, since you've gotten this far, you must have had dealings with Shin and Grandi before."
"What's wrong with them? Could it be that Xin and Grandi have some kind of conspiracy against this world?"
"No, it was me who investigated the entry and exit patterns of this star system, and then found them individually to understand the situation and find out what was happening on this planet."
"You didn't catch them? With your abilities, I think it shouldn't have been a problem."
Huilia was eager to know Max's true strength, but it was inconvenient for her to test him herself. It would be best if she could find out from Max himself.
"No, actually I'm not a very rule-abiding person. I let them go in exchange for some information."
"You're just going to let them go like that? Aren't you afraid they'll leak the planet's information?"
“I can’t do anything to them openly, but pushing those two too far would be a more dangerous move. Xin and Grandi both assured me they would keep it a secret, but as for whether they will actually do it, I’ve asked someone else to help me check.”
"Who has the ability to threaten Shin and Grandi? Those two are both fearless guys."
Max understood Huilia's eagerness; after all, Huilia was the real participant in the world's turmoil and had more right to speak than an observer like himself.
Therefore, to put Huilia at ease, one must demonstrate true ability; only in that way can one win his trust and allow him to continue cooperating with Zeta with peace of mind.
"Jagula Jugglus. I think you are all very familiar with this name."
"Even if you don't believe me, don't you believe in your old captain, Haruki?"
Now Huilia had nothing to say. If Max really got Jugglus to cooperate, that would be perfect. Haruki and Zeta had personally experienced the captain's strength and cunning; just thinking about it sent chills down their spines.
“Go on, I want to know more about this world.”
"The initial dimensional rift disturbance was captured by someone and sent to the black market, causing a stir. At first, everyone thought it was just a joke, but later more and more information was exposed."
"First, there's the Bogaru. A Bogaru that was being hunted fled to this star system, presumably trying to use its extremely strong vitality to evade its pursuers by relying on the environment. If the Bogaru discovers the true situation of this star system, it will likely lead to widespread devastation."
"Bogaru? Isn't that the monster created by faith? How come there's a real one?"
"The one that was really killed by Xin was just when Bogaru was about to set foot on this star system. Xin is a monster of resentment, unaffected by the environment. He was attracted to this planet by the resentment."
According to Xin, he disliked Bogaru's unsustainable hunting methods. Because they couldn't stand each other, they clashed, and Xin ultimately won.
"Later, when Xin finally arrived in this world, he discovered Grandi. Because the territory Xin wanted had been occupied by Grandi, she changed locations and targeted humans in another place. And then she met you."
Unexpected development: I never thought that faith would actually save the world once. If the real Bogaru had come to this world, its cruelty would have led to the massacre of all living beings on the surface.
However, this does not mean that Huilia will change her opinion of Xin. Her evil deeds are equally hateful. Xin only killed Bogaru because of a conflict of interest. Her actions were all for her own selfish desires rather than justice.
"As for Grandy, he warned me to be careful of the Magicians' Guild because he suspected that the guild was responsible for making all the invaders lose their memories ten years ago. Grandy believes that once the time is right, they will definitely carry out another memory modification, and neither monsters nor Ultraman will be able to escape it."
“I don’t think Grandi is joking.”
Max's seriousness also alerted Zeta and Huilia. They had never imagined that the humans of this world would possess the terrifying power to rewrite memories, and judging from the scale of ten years, it was at least planetary in nature.
"In addition, cosmic forces began to take action. The appearance of Gigachimera caused spacetime to become disordered during that period, and multiple places in the universe simultaneously received the fluctuations of this planet."
“There are many signals, but the degree of openness to the outside world has been severely suppressed. I know very little and cannot determine their manpower and scale, but I will block them openly. The rest will have to be done by you.”
"It's only a matter of time before this planet is discovered by the outside world. Before cosmic forces fully invade, I hope you can investigate the secrets hidden in this world."
"Not only enemies from outer space, but also guilds need to be dealt with with caution. We must not let that mysterious power fall into the hands of evil people, and we must be careful not to be harmed by them."
