What? Ultraman is lifelong?

Although Casto sorted out the responsibilities and positions of the mysterious four through human logic, as we all know, they actually had only one original intention in designing them, and that was the Ultramans, or perhaps the Ultramans of the Ultramans.

This sentence may sound a bit strange, but if you trace it back to the roots of heroic tokusatsu like Ultraman, it will be much easier to understand.

The essence of hero special shooting is actually deus ex machina. After the screenwriter describes a powerful, mysterious, or terrifying enemy, the deus ex machina is used to defeat the enemy previously described by the screenwriter, so as to bring the story to completion.

The transformation of the protagonist at critical moments in every Ultraman TV series is like a deus ex machina to humans, and in the story with Ultraman as the protagonist, the mysterious four arcane gods are like a deus ex machina to Ultraman. god.

This is a common method of hero special shooting. When the story is depicted as too huge, through the existence of a ceiling level, the combat power of the story is successfully controlled within an acceptable range.

However, this is from the perspective of the story. If this is the case, then just designing a strong enough arcane ceiling character will be enough to solve these problems. The complex and profound settings of the mysterious four arcana will actually be solved in a certain period. Sometimes this becomes a source of confusion for story editors.

And this brings us to another practical reason why the Mysterious Four were designed, and that is the business outside of the story.

If you consider it from a business perspective, every appearance of the mysterious Four is due to realistic factors. The appearance of the Ultra King is to save Leo's ratings, and the appearance of Saga and Reggio is for the movie's box office. , and Noah's appearance was part of Tsuburaya Company's once great plan.

As a "selling point" of a certain commercial project, just an ordinary "Super Ultraman" is not enough to make people feel satisfied. In addition to the common characteristics of power, justice, and light that every Ultraman has shown, people are more Hope to see something else from them,

The moment the Mysterious Four were born, it was just to make people feel more 'Ultraman' than ordinary Ultraman, possessing the characteristics that all Ultraman have, but compared to Ordinary Ultraman have more.

But at this time, another thing needs to be mentioned, that is, because the Ultra series spans a long time, it is limited by a series of factors such as the aesthetics of the time, the concepts of the main audience, and the needs of corresponding planning. , the design of the Mysterious Four is more focused, which actually has certain characteristics of the times.

King of Ultra is the earliest arcane ceiling designed. Taking into account Leo's rather cruel life experience, some kindly elder settings were added.

Noah, Regedo, and Saga were all designed with mystery and power in mind, but King Ultra was designed in the image of an elder from the beginning.

When the two Castors saw that the person coming was Lao Wangtou, they were not dissatisfied. On the contrary, they breathed a sigh of relief.

As we all know, in a sense, the two of them are Noah's clones. If their 'evil deeds' really lead to the arrival of Noah himself, then even if Noah picks up some legendary weapon and beats them up, they will be the same. Unreasonable.

But Lao Wangtou is different. Although he may be the youngest among the mysterious Four, because he was designed to be an old man and an elder, both Castos have confidence, as the "son" of a "colleague" , Theoretically, Lao Wangtou should not be violent to them.

The King of Ultra looked at the two Castor in front of him, sighed, and then sighed again. Obviously, although he was indeed a little speechless about the behavior of the two guys in front of him, he couldn't help it. Ya's family beat other children, and the long-lost feeling of powerlessness made him feel helpless.

The old Wangtou waved his hand, and as a strange light flashed, the time that had been frozen by Noah began to flow again outside the ruins, and the Yapo people began to bang against the sky of the ruins together.

The old Wangtou glanced at the crack in the sky, then looked at the two young men in front of him, sighed and said, "Why did you two lead the Abo people to the ruins of Noah?"

His tone was a bit strange, because there were indeed some logical problems with such an expression. You must know that every Nexus is a clone of Noah. Even if they do not have consciousness, they will not actively damage the relics related to them. But the problem is that not only did the two guys in front of them do this, but they also didn't seem to accept Noah's order to stop.

Speaking of clones, Lao Wangtou actually knows quite a lot about Noah’s clones. You must know that in the universe where the Kingdom of Light exists, there are ruins that store Noah’s clones. As a protector of the multiverse, Old Wangtou They had naturally come into contact with other Noah's clones. Although they knew Castor was different, what they did still shocked the well-informed old man.

"Tsk, Old Wangtou, you should know why we have to spend so much effort to do this kind of thing, right?" The red Casto looked at the King of Ultra and said, then pointed to the blue self next to him, "If If possible, this guy would have found an opportunity to ask you."

"Hmph, don't ask, he even punched me." The blue Casto looked at the King of Ultra angrily.

"You guys, get the Yabo people out first." The King of Ultra said seriously, "He is depleting the energy of the ruins. Do you know what it feels like to be so annoyed by people in your field?"

"Mosquitoes are noisy, he told us."

The King of Ultra looked at the two Castors angrily, and the two Castors looked at the King of Ultra without fear. If this scene were to be seen in the universe, Castor's reputation would probably explode. It wasn't because the two of them bullied the elderly, but because they didn't back down when facing the King of Ultra.

After a while, I don't know whether it was because I was worried about what my colleagues would do if they were annoyed anymore, or because the King of Ultra's 'elderly setting' had taken effect. After the sky shattered countless times, Ultra The king suddenly laughed, then stroked his beard and looked at the two young men in front of him,

"You two won, ask, but I may not know everything." After thinking about it, the Ultra King added, "But it's not that I won't tell you some things, it's just that the world we see is different from what you see. There are sometimes gaps in the world.”

"Just like it's difficult for people from the Kingdom of Light to explain to people on Earth what it feels like when a plasma spark tower shines on their bodies, it's also difficult for me to explain to you something you can't see."

"Oh, old man, you finally figured it out!" The red Casto nodded seriously, then waved his hand, and several recliners floated over from the edge of the ruins, "I reinforced them with my mind. You, old man, can lie down on them. Talk to us."

"Hmph! It's funny to be arrogant at first and then respectful later!" The blue Castor looked at his red self and snorted coldly, then walked straight to the opposite side of the Ultra King and half-knelt down. He performed a Kingdom of Light salute and said, "Please, Your Majesty!"

Red card:? ? ? ? Who is more arrogant and respectful?

Lanka: I practice the pure etiquette of the Kingdom of Light. A country boy like you knows nothing!

The King of Ultra leaned back in his chair, looked at the eyes of the two young people opposite him, and smiled, "We have a really good relationship."
