Chapter 376: Kakuma Appears
"Agree to him."
Captain Gumei Hui felt a weight lift from her heart. With Director-General Sawai's nod, there was no reason to refuse.
"No problem, Tenkawa Kōhei, from now on, you are a member of the Victory Team."
As soon as Captain Gumei Hui said this, Fugaku heard the system notification that the mission was complete.
"It's done." A hint of satisfaction flashed in Fugaku's eyes as he collected the 100 anime points reward.
Since arriving in the Diga Ultraman World, he had completed two missions so far.
The mission to eliminate Geltzank earned him one hundred anime points, and the mission to join the Victory Team also gave him one hundred anime points.
Now his anime points had increased from 1200 to 1400.
"I will have someone give you your identification later. For now, you can move into the dormitory," Captain Gumei Hui said.
"Alright."
Captain Gumei Hui thought for a moment and called Da Gu, the team member. In her opinion, Da Gu, who was always friendly with people, could get along very well with Fugaku. She decided to have him help Tenkawa Kōhei move.
"Please wait, I've arranged for a team member to help you move."
Fugaku had no objections. There were no spatial storage scrolls or similar items here to hold things, so moving was a troublesome matter for him. Fortunately, he didn't care about the things left by his predecessor. He figured that once the person Captain Gumei Hui mentioned arrived, he would ask him to take him to a convenience store near the dormitory or to the warehouse to get a brand new quilt and some daily necessities.
Just as Fugaku was looking down at his phone, Captain Gumei Hui's voice suddenly rang out.
"He's here."
Fugaku looked up and saw a sunny young man jogging over with a bright smile.
"Captain!"
The sunny young man put away his smile and saluted solemnly.
Fugaku looked at him, and a strange glint flashed in his eyes.
It's Da Gu!
He didn't expect to meet Da Gu so early.
Hmm, so handsome, Da Gu!
"Yes, Da Gu, this is Tenkawa Kōhei, who just joined the Victory Team. From now on, you are all comrades. Say hello to him," Captain Gumei Hui said with a smile.
She did not explain Fugaku's origins. The ability to summon a dark giant was highly classified, and even though Da Gu was a member of the Victory Team, this secret could not be told to him.
Da Gu looked at Fugaku beside him and smiled again, "Hello! I'm Da Gu! You can just call me Da Gu."
Looking at Da Gu's honest smile and outstretched right hand, Fugaku smiled and shook his hand, "Hello, Da Gu, I'm Tenkawa Kōhei. Please take care of me from now on."
"Ahem, I have something else to do, so I'll be going now."
Captain Gumei Hui nodded at Fugaku and turned to leave quickly.
After Da Gu watched Captain Gumei Hui leave, he said with some surprise, "Tenkawa Kōhei, why do I feel like Captain Captain Gumei Hui respects you a lot? Where are you from?"
Da Gu naturally didn't think too much, assuming that Fugaku was probably from some special unit that joined the Victory Team. To gain Captain Captain Gumei Hui's recognition and respect, he must be an incredibly formidable person.
Fugaku smiled mysteriously, "I'm from the M78 Nebula."
Da Gu was stunned for a moment and said, "Sorry, it needs to be kept secret, right? Then I won't ask."
Da Gu enthusiastically said, "Tenkawa Kōhei, shall we go help you move first, or what?"
"No need. Is there a supermarket near your Victory Team dormitory?" Fugaku asked.
Da Gu nodded and said, "Yes, there is."
"Let's go. We can just buy a quilt directly at the supermarket. No need to move."
Da Gu was surprised, "Is that alright?"
"It's fine. There's not much to move anyway," Fugaku said with a smile.
"Alright then, follow me, this way."
Da Gu led the way very familiarly.
He used to work in the TPC transportation department, delivering things all over the base, so he was naturally very familiar with it.
Soon, the two bought a quilt and daily necessities, such as toothbrushes and cups.
The two walked towards the Victory Team's dormitory floor, chatting and laughing.
Just then, Da Gu's communicator began beeping urgently.
Da Gu's expression changed, and he quickly took out his communicator. Since it was on speaker, Fugaku also heard it.
"A monster has appeared! Come to the command room quickly!"
The voice sounded relatively young and tender. Fugaku thought it should be Nori Yazumi.
"A monster has appeared!"
Da Gu's expression tightened, and he said anxiously, "Tenkawa Kōhei, let's put our things here first! We need to hurry to the command room to gather!"
Fugaku nodded and, with Da Gu, placed the purchased items in a corner of the corridor. Then, he followed Da Gu to the command room.
By the time the two arrived at the command room, everyone else was already there.
As Da Gu entered, everyone else's gaze fell on them.
They had all heard the news of a new member joining and were naturally very curious about it. After all, it wasn't a time for the Victory Team to recruit new members externally, so why would they suddenly recruit someone?
Perhaps the higher-ups felt that with the appearance of monsters, the Victory Team needed to reinforce its personnel to improve its strength.
Therefore, one by one, they were all very curious about the new recruit, wanting to know what abilities this newcomer possessed.
When Fugaku entered from behind Da Gu, almost everyone's expression tightened.
He's quite handsome, but I wonder how capable he is? Shinjo Tetsuo raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself.
Wow, he's a hottie. Lina thought in surprise.
"You're here? Come quickly, Nori Yazumi, repeat the intel!" Captain Gumei Hui didn't give the other team members time to get to know Fugaku but spoke quickly.
"Yes!" Nori Yazumi answered solemnly, transmitting the information to the main computer screen. In a short amount of time, he had created a simple PPT based on the incoming intel.
"The monster's local name is the Rock Monster Jia Kuma. According to local villagers, the Rock Monster Jia Kuma, true to its name, is a monster that likes to devour rocks and lives underground. However, local mining operations probably dug into Jia Kuma's lair.
Currently, 4 people are missing. According to the soldiers who escaped, they were petrified.
Subsequent search parties did not find their statues."
"Hmm," Captain Gumei Hui nodded, "Currently, Jia Kuma could burst out of the cave at any moment. There's a city 30 kilometers away, and the situation is not optimistic. If Jia Kuma rushes out, its primary target will likely be there."
As soon as Captain Gumei Hui finished speaking, a 2D flat map appeared on the screen.
The red dot was the rock mountain where the monster Jia Kuma was located, and the green dot was the city Captain Gumei Hui mentioned.
The two were only thirty kilometers apart, which for a monster, was a very short distance to cover.
The city's personnel had already begun evacuation, but it would certainly be impossible to evacuate everyone in a short time.
Their mission as the Victory Team was to buy time for the residents to evacuate.
