Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 360, Section 356: Carmilla Meets Triga
I'm devastated, frantic, and on the verge of tears.

This is how the three Miki aliens feel right now.

Despite feeling like they were walking on thin ice after arriving on Earth, they did consider the possibility of being exposed, such as being discovered by TPC's detectors or being recognized by passing Ultraman.

But I never expected that I would be exposed because of this clueless contestant!
What a shame!

"Now that things have come to this, the arrow is on the bowstring, and we have no choice but to release it!" The leader of the Miki aliens went berserk.

If we don't take action soon, once the Victory Team arrives, they'll pack them up and take them away like toys!
"Let's go, let's pilot Galaon!" The three Miki aliens quickly activated the mechanism and rushed towards Galaon's cockpit.

After they were out of sight, the Nebula Trio collapsed to the ground, looking like three fish washed ashore.

Icarus alien [Ikali]: "We've done our best, we've done everything we could."

Balki Alien [Halchi]: "I wonder when the TPC people will arrive..."

Nakri, a Nakri alien: "Such a large organization must have a complicated process. First, it has to be accepted, then it has to be analyzed to see if it's true or false, and then it has to be reported up the chain of command... No, just thinking about it gives me a headache."

Balki alien [Halchi]: "Even just considering the distance, it would take half an hour to get here from their base."

Before he finished speaking, the entire factory suddenly began to shake violently, dust fell from the ceiling, and shelves collapsed with a crash.

Galam has been activated, and the earth is trembling!

"In half an hour, this neighborhood has been almost completely demolished..."

The thought of that scene filled the three of them with sorrow.

The next moment, a man and a woman walked in from outside the door. They stood against the light, with dust flying everywhere behind them.

The visitors are—Qi Ming and Hui Mei!

Qi Ming looked around: "What's that noise? Is it an earthquake?"

Upon seeing Qi Ming's sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, the Icarus alien [Ikali] immediately recognized him as the famous Qi Ming.

He was stunned: "You said thirty minutes, but they arrived in less than thirty seconds. That's incredibly efficient."

In reality, this has nothing to do with efficiency.

Qi Ming was here because he saw on the internet while browsing the news that there was a restaurant called "Nebula Restaurant" in this area, and that the chef there was very skilled and could cook delicious dishes from various countries.

All cuisines from different countries, so that means Chinese food too?
Out of curiosity, Qi Ming searched for the restaurant online and, after reading the reviews, discovered that it actually served Chinese food.

"The braised carp noodles at this restaurant are really delicious."

"Yes, their West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce is also very good, I highly recommend it."

Huimei remembers clearly that Qi Ming's eyes sharpened immediately after seeing those two comments.

"It's fake, there's no way that could happen." Qi Ming's tone was low at the time: "West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce couldn't possibly taste good. No way, I have to go and see if it's real or fake!"

So he left the base, intending to have dinner there.

Huimei also longed for Qiming's local food culture, so she suggested going with him, and Qiming naturally agreed.

Before they even found a restaurant, the ground beneath their feet began to tremble. Qi Ming and Hui Mei immediately realized something was wrong and rushed towards the epicenter, where they witnessed this scene.

Huimei looked around: "What is this? A toy factory that makes monster toys? Why do they only make monsters and not Ultraman?"

Qi Ming was taken aback when he looked at the three idiots on the ground. The three of them looked exactly like the three aliens in "Our Nebula" from "Ultraman X" who were disguised as humans.

After activating [Insight] again, Qi Ming nodded: "Balki aliens, Nakel aliens, Icarus aliens, it really is you."

He remembered that these three were harmless, good-for-nothing aliens who couldn't afford rent, would return lost wallets to their owners, and had to practice hard to play rugby.

The moment Qi Ming finished speaking, the three aliens felt a thunderous boom in their heads, as if the sky had collapsed.

Is this the power of the "Alien Killer Machine"? It can see through our true form at a glance.

Oh no, oh no, we're doomed! We're going to be wiped out by the alien killing machine!

The thought of being brutally murdered nearly made the Nackle aliens roll their eyes in horror.

The Balky alien [Halchi] gritted his teeth, his legs trembling as he approached Qi Ming: "Um—before killing us, please take care of those Miki aliens first, stop them from destroying this neighborhood!" Qi Ming looked puzzled: "Why should I kill you? What wrong have you done?"

The three idiots in the Nebula were taken aback.

What's going on? This infamous alien killing machine doesn't just kill aliens on sight?
Icarus alien [Ikali]: "Doing something wrong... is neglecting one's duties a wrong thing?"

Qi Ming and Hui Mei were even more confused: "Huh?"

However, before they could ask for details, the earth trembled violently once again.

The asphalt road shattered and bulged like a fragile biscuit, while concrete blocks and steel bars were tossed into the air like toys. Streetlights fell one after another amidst the violent shaking, and glass shop windows shattered into pieces in the shockwave.

Amidst this apocalyptic tremor, a colossal object burst from the ground and stood tall on the street.

400 meters of Galam!
Those skyscrapers that take a minute to reach the top by high-speed elevator look like tiny toys in front of it.

“Miki aliens, no wonder, it really is this thing!” Qi Ming immediately recognized the thing in front of him.

This is Galawong from the "Monster Factory" episode of "Ultraman Dyna".

He remembered clearly that in the original series, because the plan was exposed too early, and not all the parts had been assembled in time, the Miki aliens could only hastily go into battle with the newly completed Galawon head.

Galan's head alone is forty meters long, and it has three faces: an angry face, a smiling face, and a crying face. It can spin around while unleashing various attacks, causing a lot of trouble for Dyna and the Super GUTS team.

The 400-meter Galam in front of us is clearly the complete version, and it's incredibly strong.

"The difficulty has increased." Qi Ming sighed slightly, but he was not panicked.

At this moment, the giant Galam bent down and looked at the Nebula Trio, from which came the angry roar of the Miki alien leader: "It's all your fault, you made us expose ourselves too early!"

Even after they created Galam, they didn't intend to invade directly. Instead, they planned to wait until Ultraman was severely injured before coming out to take advantage of the situation.

Now we're forced to be the vanguard, how infuriating!
"You dare ruin our perfect plan? I'll kill you all!" the Miki alien inside roared in exasperation.

Qi Ming stepped forward: "With me here, you can't just kill whoever you want. Hui Mei, take the three of them to a safe place to take refuge."

"Okay." Huimei understood that Qi Ming was preparing to transform, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Can Qi Ming's team really handle such a large robot?
But she knew that staying there would be pointless, so she immediately dragged the three Nebula idiots away, saying, "Come with me, what are you doing carrying a fire extinguisher while running away? Throw it away!"

After Huimei and the Nebula Trio left, Qiming began to turn the dial.

"No matter how huge your bodies are, I only need to destroy your core, the head, and that will be enough to test the new form." The next moment, Qi Ming slapped the dial.

A stream of light rose up, and a giant in red, silver, and purple stood on the earth.

Ultraman Triga makes his appearance!
....................................

On a building not far away, three dark giants were still groping around, trying to find the time-space node they had just crossed over from and return from there.

Hitram said, "Is it really necessary to go back? I feel this world is better than before. I can vaguely sense many high-energy objects. If I absorb them, I'll become very strong."

Dagon said, "No, I'm still waiting to fight my formidable rival again."

Carmilla also said decisively, "That's right, we must find Triga!"

They heard a distant roar and saw Galawong appear, four hundred meters away.

A giant whose face was familiar to them appeared before Galaon, who was 400 meters tall.

The Dark Trio were stunned.

Hitram: "What, this guy is..."

Carmilla was the first to react, letting out a hysterical scream:
"Triga! Triga! Triga! It's Triga! I never thought he would come to this world too!"

"He must have come for me, to meet me again!"

"Let's welcome Triga back with the warmest welcome!"
