Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 380, Section 376: Daigo's [Dark Tiga] (3K)

Two days later, Ganon Star and his group formally bid farewell to Qi Ming and his group.

Queen Amaterasu bowed solemnly to Qi Ming:
"Lord Qi Ming, I need to bring back the good news that the enemy has been completely annihilated, and then take charge of the post-disaster reconstruction work on Ganon Star."

"If you need any help in the future, just ask. I'll come all the way from Ganon and get rid of all those who oppose you!"

Hui Mei, who had come with Qi Ming to see him off, thought to herself, "This can be considered an alliance between Ganon and Earth, even if the way it's phrased is a bit strange."

Qi Ming glanced at Queen Amaterasu and Red Kai: "Take care, things aren't peaceful outside of Earth either."

Two beams of light rose up, and Ares and Orb reappeared, beginning their work.

Centered on the Tree of Life, a circular area with a diameter of 500 meters was uprooted by them. The massive clod of earth floated in mid-air, carried away from the atmosphere by Ares and Orb, and flew towards the planet Ganon.

For Ultraman, who can propel planets at full power, carrying a 300-meter-long tree is nothing.

"I haven't even finished learning the Serpent Heart Style yet, and I have to part ways with my master." Yu Yan said with a mournful face, turning back to look at Jugglus Juggler next to Qi Ming every few steps, before being pushed onto the Szak spaceship by Tachibana.

In the pilot's seat, Captain Shinro nodded to everyone, then pushed the control lever, and the Szak spaceship carrying these visitors from Ganon left Earth.

Jugglus Juggler's gaze remained fixed on Orb's departing figure, watching him until he disappeared from sight.

"What, you're reluctant to part with it?" Qi Ming joked.

Unlike those fair-weather friends who call each other brothers, even though Jugglus always looks down on Kai and says he's childish and naive, Qi Ming believes that their friendship is genuine and pure.

Jugglus coughed lightly, head bowed, "No, it just feels much quieter now."

Qi Ming nodded, somewhat wistfully remarking, "It feels like the Earth has suddenly become so empty."

Orb, Ares, Dyna, and Cosmos depart, while Nexus temporarily leaves the stage.

Currently, the only powerful combat forces on Earth that are publicly known are Agul, Victory, and Qiming.

Fortunately, the enemy forces were also mostly wiped out.

The White Dragon Legion was completely wiped out, the Baalzeb clan was exterminated, the Kirielod people were utterly destroyed, and the Destruction Bringer and the Light Virus were scared away and have not returned to this day...

The enemies currently lurking on Earth are Carmilla, Dagon, and Cerebro—that thing hasn't made a move yet, I hope it hasn't gone abroad.

It was indeed very quiet, giving me the feeling that all the homework I had been accumulating for a long time had finally been written.

Two more days passed, and Hikari sent a message to Qi Ming.

With Agamous's assistance, the restoration of the statue was expedited and completed yesterday.

Qi Ming rushed over immediately and met Staff Officer Quan Teng, who had also come after receiving the news.

"Team member Qi Ming," Staff Officer Quan Teng greeted him, his gaze towards Qi Ming somewhat strange.

There is awe and curiosity.

After learning that "Ultraman can be transformed from a human", his entire worldview was turned upside down.

After calming down, he began to think.

Of all the Ultraman that have appeared on Earth so far, besides Dyna and Cosmos, there must be other people who have inherited the light.

Does that mean...

Thinking of this, Staff Officer Gondo unconsciously swallowed.

But his reason told him that he absolutely could not ask this question in front of Qi Ming, otherwise he might be finished.

Staff Officer Gondo first waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to leave the vicinity, and then said in a casual tone, "Where are Mr. Asuka and Mr. Musashi? I haven't seen them these days. I had a pretty good chat with them last time."

Qi Ming: "I've gone home for now. I said I'll be back soon, but I don't know how long 'soon' actually means."

The creator of the Ultraman random key also said that it would come to him "soon," but so far there has been no sign of it.

Dorobone, who had previously stolen Black Orb's Color Timer, also said he would come to Earth "soon" to steal it again, but Qi Ming has yet to catch him.

This has resulted in Aizen Makoto's "main hero" still being banned.

Fortunately, after giving up his color timer, which he cherished as his life, to save others, Aizen Makoto seemed to be elevated. He did not give up on himself and continued to train.

In his words, he believes that he will eventually turn back into Black Orb and fight alongside Gai Orb one day.

Before that, he needs to work hard to improve himself and truly become a man worthy of this powerful force.

Qi Ming expressed his approval and praise.

Qi Ming and Quan Tou looked at the Tiga statue below together. Qi Ming then said to Quan Tou, "The statue has been repaired. Quan Tou, are you planning to move forward with your 'artificial Ultraman' project?"

Staff Officer Quan Teng stiffened for a moment, then laughed and said, "Nothing can be hidden from the shrewd and calculating Qi Ming."

Qi Ming: "So, after having a 'good chat' with Asuka, do you still want to create an artificial Ultraman?"

Staff Officer Gondo remained silent for a moment, then said in a solemn tone, "Team Member Qi Ming, regarding this matter, I would like to ask you for clarification—did that bird witness my death?"

Qi Ming carefully considered his words before saying, "Advisor Quan Teng, you should know about parallel universes, right?"

“There is an Earth in other universes, and Shin Asuka comes from another Earth. He also met a strategist named Gondo who wanted to create an artificial Ultraman in the past.”

"In order to achieve his goal, Chief of Staff Gondo designed Asuka, took away his Dyna Light, and created an artificial Ultraman who obeyed him."

"But this Ultraman has no soul and is not as good as the real Dyna. In the end, he was taken over and controlled by evil forces and became a force that threatens the Earth."

He deliberately omitted mentioning that in the original drama, Staff Officer Gondo atoned for his sins with his death, precisely to prevent the current Gondo from having such thoughts:

[What? So, if the plan goes wrong, I can use my death to make up for the mistake? That's quite a margin for error! Charge!] After hearing Qi Ming's words, the strategist Quan Teng beside Qi Ming's face changed drastically: "What?! There's actually such a thing!"

Is this the end? He couldn't accept this ending.

Qi Ming: "So he doesn't want you to repeat the same mistake."

Gondo nodded heavily: "I understand. The artificial Ultraman project will be stopped here. I will concentrate the resources on creating the new Megas system and the Kurak call sign."

In the end, Gondo unconsciously recalled what Asuka had said that day: "The new Megatron cannon is even more powerful than Ultraman's beam... Is this what humanity is proud of?"

The eyes are the windows to the soul. Qi Ming nodded as he looked at Quan Teng. Through Quan Teng's relieved expression, he could sense that Quan Teng had let go of his obsession and was no longer insisting on going down a dead end.

"Then, what should we do with these stone statues?" After saying that, Gondo looked down at the Ultraman Tiga statue.

Qi Ming: "Keep it; it might come in handy in the future."

After dismissing Advisor Gondo and reminding him to "keep the secret that humans can transform into Ultraman," Qi Ming looked at the Ultraman random button on his watch, feeling somewhat conflicted.

If he wanted, he could now scan the statue and complete the Tiga character in any key to 60%.

But... is it really necessary?

In that case, Ultraman Tiga would become a B-class character, the top C-class character, and the extremely cost-effective "one-dollar god" would cease to exist.

Qi Ming was somewhat conflicted, but ultimately decided to wait and see, and there was no rush.

A day later, Xingci arrived at 10 o'clock.

Qi Ming asked Hui Mei and Hikari, and learned that Earth had been peaceful recently after the destruction of the Galactron Legion and the Baalzeb Clan, so he prepared to gather stars.

Dan Moroboshi, Emi, Nagi Saijo, and Jugglus Juggler arrived at Qiming's room to watch the star convergence scene.

“Jugglus, you give it a try,” Qi Ming said.

Jugglus Juggler, who was called out, didn't hesitate and clicked the button directly.

The next moment, all four buttons on Ultraman's AnyKey simultaneously emitted a green laser beam, which formed a light curtain at the point of intersection.

A picture appeared on the screen.

In the dim and murky space, three black giants faced each other from a distance, their positions clearly defined.

Qi Ming's eyes narrowed.

This is a scene from the Ultraman Tiga movie, "The Final Holy War"!

For the sake of humanity's future, Daigo uses the Dark Spark Lens to transform into Dark Tiga and challenges the three resurrected Dark Giants!
The dark giant on the left is Darram, Hitra, the prototype of Dagon, Hitra in Ultraman Triga.

And the figure standing opposite them... was all too familiar.

Huimei: "It's Tiga! Tiga with a black body!"

Saijo Nagi: "Black Tiga? What's the relationship between him and the real Tiga? Is it like Nexus and Mephisto? And what are the two giants opposite him?"

Jugglus Juggler: "An evil dark giant? Something's not right. Although this Tiga's body is black, he feels fundamentally different from those two grotesque and terrifying giants."

Even though it's black, it still gives off the feeling of a righteous and upright official like Bao Zheng.

Just as Qi Ming was about to explain in detail, the next moment, the image of Xingju froze on Dark Tiga.

Qi Ming was taken aback.

The next moment, the clock face turned, and a new page was turned.

Dark Tiga.

Integration level: 60%.

Rating: C.

Qi Ming was greatly surprised.

The being that the stars gathered this time was actually Dark Tiga!

This Star Gathering event doesn't seem very interesting anymore, since I already have Ultraman Tiga...

wrong!

Qi Ming suddenly realized something and quickly turned the dial.

Another silhouette of Ultraman Tiga appears.

Ultraman Tiga.

Integration level: 30%.

Rating: C.

In Ultraman Any Key, Dark Tiga and 30% Composite Tiga are actually independent of each other and calculated separately!
Shouldn't Dark Tiga be the precursor to Composite Tiga? How could this be?!
This……

He turned the dial, looked at the newly arrived Dark Tiga, then at the 30% Composite Tiga, and then at Triga.

His expression kept changing as a bold idea popped into his mind.
