Working as a consultant in the Ultra Universe

Chapter 2002 Battle Recap and Future Directions

During the battle, Daigo Madoka was forced to deactivate his transformation due to exhaustion of energy, which undoubtedly caused a huge drain on his stamina.

Therefore, when Gu Chen and the Mefilas aliens found him, he was still lying on the ground, unable to get up.

Seeing this, Gu Chen simply sat down cross-legged on the spot and asked, "Dagu, are you alright?"

Upon hearing Gu Chen's voice, Madoka Daigo finally opened his eyes, staring blankly at the azure sky above.

The weather on Timeless Island is always great; whether it's windy or rainy outside, it has no effect on the island.

It's unclear whether Daigo Madoka is simply too tired to think straight, or if he's been overwhelmed by the strength of the Mefilas aliens.

Gu Chen couldn't help but exchange a glance with the alien from the planet Mefilas, and then quietly waited for Daigo Madoka's response.

After a long pause, Daigo Madoka finally spoke: "Advisor, I'm fine, it's just that it's the first time I've ever been able to undo my transformation in this way, and it feels really uncomfortable."

Seeing that Daigo Madoka seemed to have recovered, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

As the protagonist, he knew that Daigo Madoka wouldn't be defeated so easily.

Then, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he said, "So, what did you learn from that battle just now?"

Upon hearing this question, Daigo Madoka's expression clearly froze for a moment, then a look of reminiscence crossed his face.

While Daigo Madoka was reviewing the battle with the Mefilas alien in his mind, Gu Chen waved to the Mefilas alien, telling him to go back and prepare some food to replenish Daigo Madoka's energy after he had rested.

The alien Mefilas immediately bowed and accepted the order, seemingly unaffected by the battle with Daigo Madoka.

Now, it's crystal clear which is better and which is worse.

After a short while, Daigo Madoka finished his review and said, "Advisor, I don't know what I gained. I just felt that in the battle with the Mefilas alien, I was completely suppressed by him. It was as if no matter what kind of attack I launched, it would be easily countered by him."

Gu Chen nodded and said, "That's right, what you're feeling is the issue of combat rhythm that I told you about before."

Upon hearing this, Madoka's eyes widened slightly as he looked at Gu Chen.

Then, he heard Gu Chen continue, "Most of the monsters you fought in the past were monsters that acted on instinct. Whether they were cosmic monsters or native Earth monsters, their fighting patterns were relatively fixed. Once you had fought one or a few of them, you would know more or less their attack patterns. Even if these monsters had different attack methods, you could apply them to other situations."

"Even the aliens you encountered before, their strength seemed very weak to me."

"First of all, let's talk about the Kirieloid. He didn't seem like a warrior to me. He was a worthy opponent for you back then, a novice sparring match."

"The Reicuran aliens and Kiranbo who came after them were not very skilled in combat either, in my opinion."

"Therefore, you can defeat them relatively easily by relying on the special training I gave you recently and Tiga's own abilities."

"But the Mefilas alien is different. In the Showa universe, his strength is comparable to that of the elite warriors of the Land of Light's Space Garrison. Even though he is good at using some tricks and schemes, his own combat ability and combat skills are not low."

"You should understand this very well now."

"The simplest and clearest way to judge whether a person is proficient in combat is to see if he can suppress his opponent's rhythm in the battle with his own rhythm, and ultimately lead his opponent to the abyss of defeat under his own combat rhythm."

Listening to Gu Chen's explanation, Yuan Dagu seemed to understand but not quite.

He had asked Gu Chen about the rhythm of the battle before and received an answer from Gu Chen, but he still didn't understand.

Today, through the battle with the Mefilas aliens, Daigo Madoka was able to vaguely grasp what the rhythm of battle really was.

Thinking of this, Daigo Madoka asked Gu Chen for advice: "Then, advisor, how can I make my fighting rhythm outpace that of the enemy?"

Upon hearing this question, Gu Chen grinned and said, "That's a good question..."

Daigo Madoka's eyes lit up, but then he saw Gu Chen spread his hands and say, "But I don't know how to make your fighting rhythm outpace your opponent's."

Yuan Daigu was stunned, clearly not expecting Gu Chen to give such an answer.

Seeing this, Gu Chen continued to explain, "The issue of the battle rhythm can only be resolved by yourself; you cannot get the real answer from others."

"I might be able to give you a suggestion, or perhaps a direction, but I can't teach you these things based on my own experience, because those are just things that work for me, but they might not work for you."

"For example, the reason I didn't conduct more in-depth training for you after you mastered the basic throwing and grappling techniques was because if you wanted to improve in this area, you needed to find your own rhythm and style."

"I learned my wrestling skills from Ultraman from the Land of Light in the Showa universe, but after learning them, my wrestling style is completely different from his."

"So similarly, if you want to develop your own fighting rhythm, you need to rely on your own efforts."

"From what I can see right now, your fighting style after transforming into Tiga is still in the exploratory stage. You are somewhat following Tiga's body instincts in a rigid, formulaic way, and you haven't yet made Tiga's skills your own."

"In this way, although you can defeat weaker enemies, you will be in a tough fight when facing strong enemies, such as the Mefilas aliens."

"At that time, whether we win or lose will be uncertain."

Listening to Gu Chen's words, Madoka nodded as if he understood, and then asked, "So, advisor, what should I do now to develop my own unique fighting rhythm?"

After a moment of contemplation, Gu Chen said, "Well... right now, the main focus should be on you fully mastering Tiga's abilities."

Upon hearing this, Daigo Madoka was taken aback again, and asked in surprise, "Advisor, haven't I completely mastered Tiga's abilities yet?"

Gu Chen shook his head with a slight chuckle and said, "This is nothing. At the very least, you need to be proficient in using skill combinations to defeat different enemies in different forms before you can say you have completely mastered Tiga's abilities."

"At present, you have only basically mastered the power of Tiga's Power Form, are proficient in using the power of Tiga's Composite Form, and are able to use the power of Tiga's Sky Form."

"So, you still have a long way to go."

"But it's okay, we still have plenty of time."

"Take a rest and wait until you've recovered your strength before starting a new round of special training."
