Summoned from another world, the hero is Ultraman Zeta.

Chapter 169 The Last Light Magic Stone

Giant birds flew in from the distant sea, their silhouettes sweeping across the ocean and through the mountains and forests. People in the sea clouds went about their work at a leisurely pace, feeling reassured by the surrounding watchtowers that ensured their safety.

The monster that appeared from the other side of the mountain took a detour after seeing Haiyun's formation. The ashes of the monster, which had been bombarded a few days ago, were still in the crater and had not been completely buried.

Haiyun faces the distant Monster Islands across the sea. The islands are inhabited by completely unknown otherworldly monsters, and Haiyun's job is to guard this place and prevent those otherworldly monsters from going to the mainland.

Haruki stood beneath a seaside tower, gazing at the distant islands for a preliminary observation. Zeta's concerns were not unfounded; the danger posed by the Reionics was unimaginably terrifying in this world teeming with monsters.

Although Haruki and Zeta wanted to go to those islands to see for themselves, they needed to reunite with their companions beforehand and find out more about the Light Magic Stones.

Yixuan, who came from behind Yaohui, signaled that Zhaoyu and the others had arrived and were waiting inside the tower. No one wanted to miss any information about the last Light Magic Stone.

"Is this the last Light Magic Stone? It looks quite well preserved."

Yixuan opened the storage box, revealing the Light Magic Stone inside. Everyone's eyes were focused on the golden stone. The light it emitted confirmed to Sean and Zhaoyu that it was indeed the Light Magic Stone.

Sean's surprise was also what others were interested in. This Light Magic Stone was the most intact and energy-rich stone at present, making people really curious about how powerful a giant this stone would transform into.

"Do you know how this light stone came to be, Mr. Yixuan? Where did you find it?"

The Light Stone is already there, but the hero is yet to be chosen. Judging from the previous situation, the Light Magic Stone will choose its own host. Yaohui wants to know if Yixuan knows anything about this.

"From the moment the hero first appeared, we received a message from the guild master summoning us and took action to investigate the whereabouts of the Light Magic Stones. According to eyewitness reports, two Light Magic Stones were intercepted by a monster while they were flying."

"That was a giant ant with wings. In order to investigate the whereabouts of the Light Stones, we tracked its race and eventually discovered the giant ant swarm and otherworldly monsters on the islands. The two Light Magic Stones were taken to a person who commanded the monsters."

Things took an unexpected turn. Yaohui and the others never imagined that the two light stones were intercepted in mid-air and ended up in the hands of a troublesome person.

One of the light stones was destroyed, but another appeared here intact. What happened? Haruki wanted to ask more, but Ichih, who was telling the story, looked a little hesitant.

Noticing that everyone was watching him, Yixuan composed himself and continued recounting the story.

"I was in the exploration team at the time. Our team was attacked by monsters shortly after entering the island. We were captured by the monsters and imprisoned by the person who controlled them."

"During that time, we tried every means to escape and attempted to retrieve the Light Magic Stone from that person. Although it was difficult, he was the only one there, and we eventually managed to escape while he was dealing with the monster."

"We also managed to obtain the Light Magic Stones, but one of them was destroyed by a monster's attack. We returned to Haiyun with the last Light Magic Stone, and since then, the guild has never sent anyone to explore those islands again."

Yi-hyun recounted his experience of being imprisoned on Monster Island. The thought of a group of humans being kept with strange monsters all day long is terrifying. A-gu truly admires Yi-hyun and his friends for escaping from that place.

Yixuan, Yixuan? Ah Jiu feels like she's heard this name somewhere before. Ah Jiu must have heard this name before.

"I'm sorry for reminding you of bad things, Yixuan. How are you all doing now?"

Yaohui felt great sympathy for Yixuan's experience. It was hard to imagine how much willpower they had to escape the monster's territory with their human abilities.

Sean and Zhao Yu shared the same sentiment. While obtaining their previous Light Stone was indeed troublesome, it wasn't dangerous. In contrast, Yi Xuan and the others had risked their lives to protect this Light Magic Stone.

Looking at the golden luster on that light-emitting spirit stone now, it seems all the more precious and rare.

"Ah, I remember now! Mr. Yixuan, it's you, right? The one who wrote 'The Encyclopedia of Monsters'."

Ajiu's exclamation broke the silence. After thinking it over, Ajiu finally understood why she remembered the name Yixuan. Yixuan was the author of the "Monster Encyclopedia" series, which had been serialized for over a hundred issues!

Looking at it this way, given Yixuan's understanding of monsters, using their characteristics to maneuver and escape seems quite feasible upon closer examination.

"So you've seen my work before? What a coincidence!"

Yixuan was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that his colleague, with whom he would be working, would be one of his readers. He really hadn't anticipated this situation.

When readers and authors meet, there are so many topics to talk about, especially when an author who has serialized a story for hundreds of years meets a reader who has been following the story closely. A wonderful connection brings the two together.

"The Light Magic Stone has been preserved, and the guild has already made a great sacrifice. Now it's time for us to set off." While Ajiu and Yixuan were chatting enthusiastically, Yaohui called Sean and Zhaoyu over to prepare for the next move.

The island occupied by otherworldly monsters, the Reonics that command the monsters, and the reason for intercepting the Light Magic Stone—all these questions await the hero and his companions to explore.

The waves surged, the wind rose and the clouds shifted, and the sunlight reflected off the crystal of Yugi. Haruki and his companions gathered and set their sights on the distant monster island.

With the Light Magic Stone fully charged, blue and red light swirled around the hero's wrist. Sean and Zhao Yu entered a state of combat readiness. They were about to face hordes of otherworldly monsters, the danger of which was unpredictable, leaving no room for hesitation or doubt.

"Then I'll leave Ajiu in your care. Yixuan, let's go to Monster Island to investigate."

"Be careful, everyone, we're waiting for you to come back!"

Haiyun maintained strict order, offering little interference or disturbance to the hero's actions. Aside from guild members, no one else was present. The tower relaxed its guard to see the hero off, and among the people standing in the distance, only Ajiu was shouting loudly. Everything should have been quite peaceful…

With a loud bang, a beam of light pierced the sky, emanating from an island on the horizon, stirring up waves and churning the entire sea surface. Its scale was beyond the comprehension of all the top mages in the Sea Cloud.

Above the island, a spatial rift was torn open, summoning a beastly figure to this world. The colossal beast King Glass plunged into the sea, stirring up rolling waves, its dorsal fin spikes gliding across the surface.

"Man proposes, God disposes! We didn't even have time to react. Let's go, everyone!"

The three heroes transformed simultaneously, their radiance surpassing even the bright sun in broad daylight. A giant appeared in a triple appearance, soaring into the sky. Zeta was accompanied by two beams of light as they headed straight for the island, determined to uncover the truth.
