Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 388, Section 384: Combined Attack Technique, As worthy of Agul (3K)

After giving Qi Ming a high five, Hui Mei leaned back in her chair, staring at the red "ABORTED" message on the screen, momentarily lost in thought.

Through external cameras, one can see that the red aurora borealis in the sky above the base is gradually fading, as if diluted by some invisible force, and the nuclear missile silos are no longer emitting eerie rumbling noises.

The underwater base, which had just been like hell, now exuded an eerie tranquility.

"Thinking about it carefully, that brat was really disgusting," Huimei blurted out.

She had been anxious about the sixteen nuclear bombs that could potentially trigger a world war and turn globalization into scorched earth, while also thinking about Qi Ming, who was fighting against overwhelming odds.

So when the Daisima aliens appeared before her, she didn't have the energy to be afraid or nervous.

Once her nerves relaxed, she found the thing that wanted to take over her body utterly repulsive.

Fortunately, Qi Ming showed up. He always steps up at crucial moments, which makes people feel at ease.

Qi Ming looked at the footage captured by the external surveillance camera: "Fujimiya played well."

On the glacier, Agul V2 was seen fighting three opponents with ease.

"Bang!" He ignored the barrage of fire from the Barak ship, neither defending nor dodging, and showed no reaction after being hit—his superhuman physical defense made him almost immune to the ship's cannon fire.

"Whoosh!" Desimania unleashed another destructive beam, but Agul shattered it all with the [Agul's Holy Sword], then slashed Desimania away with a single blow, dealing significant damage.

"Pfft!" Rechubas exhaled cooling gas. Agul, who had been reminded by Qi Ming earlier, rolled to the side and then countered with [Clearer].

"Bang!" The blue energy beam struck Reichubas, causing it to writhe in pain.

He was able to take on three opponents and still gain the upper hand, and his movements were fluid and graceful.

He truly deserves the title of "King of Pretentiousness".

But the next moment, a shocking change occurred.

A blinding white light burst forth high in the sky as a giant rock with a polyhedral crystalline appearance fell from the heavens and crashed heavily onto the glaciers of Antarctica.

"Boom!" At the point of impact of the meteorite, spider web-like cracks formed, like a wound on Antarctica. The impact caused the underwater base to tremble violently, and Huimei had to hold onto the table to steady herself.

“A meteorite… no, this is alive.” Agul looked at the boulder, and he could feel the astonishing heat emanating from it.

"This is... the Light and Heat Magic Stone from the ninth volume of Gaia!" Qi Ming recognized the uninvited guest.

This is a peculiar mineral life form with two major abilities.

One emits extremely high temperatures, and the other creates a gravitational field that causes the surrounding area to sink.

Whether Antarctica melts down or sinks to the bottom of the sea, it will have a devastating impact on the Earth's ecosystem.

Well, in the "Mobile Fortress Cannot Float" incident, Antarctica still cannot escape the threat of melting.

Even though this world doesn't have an artificial sun, the light and heat magic stone, whose destructive power is no less than that of an artificial sun, filled the void.

"Whoosh!" The next moment, a red vortex appeared around the Light Heat Magic Stone, and it began to continuously release super high temperature.

The high-temperature vortex swept in all directions, and the ice in its path began to vaporize. Several penguins hundreds of meters away turned into charcoal in the heat wave before they could even cry out.

Penguins got roasted in Antarctica.

Upon seeing this, Fujimiya immediately took up the Holy Sword of Aguru and slashed at the Light and Heat Magic Stone, intending to deal with it first.

However, the extremely low temperatures in Antarctica, much like the liquid nitrogen bombs shot at it in the original Gaia series, caused an imbalance in the high-density molecules within its body.

In this state, the Light-Heat Magic Stone grew spear-like red tentacles from its body, becoming even more bizarre.

"Whoosh!" The blue Agul Blade severed a red tentacle. The Light and Heat Magic Stone, which in the original series could make Gaia V1 struggle, was no match for Agul V2.

But Agul will face far more than just this one opponent this time.

The next moment, three more enormous figures descended from the sky.

It's the twin monsters of the sword-wielding tyrant Magma Alien!

This is the classic duo who broke Seven's right leg in the first episode of the original "Ultraman Leo" series, and they're here too!

The Magma alien pointed the long sword in his right hand at Agul:
"So you're an Ultraman? There's an old saying on Earth: 'Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner.'"

"You've hurt my pet, that's incredibly rude of you."

Looking at the Light and Heat Magic Stone that was constantly heating up and melting the Antarctic glacier, Qi Ming said, "Pet... so the Light and Heat Magic Stone was brought by it."

In the original series, the Twin Monsters were ordered to flood the Magma aliens on Kuroshio Island. In this world, they wanted to melt Antarctica with the Light and Heat Magic Stone, which would flood the entire Earth!
In this hybrid world, Antarctica still experiences the intense heat of the "sun," the Magma aliens still seek to overwhelm humanity, and the timeline strangely converges.

Faced with the Magma aliens' provocation, Fujimiya remained silent and swung the Agul Holy Sword at them.

"Want to test your swordsmanship with me? Interesting. Let me see the abilities of Earth's Ultra Warriors." The Magma alien swung his long sword with imposing grandeur.

The moment the two blades clashed, the Magma alien's longsword snapped in two.

The force of the shockwave had not yet dissipated, and the violent shockwave violently blew the Magma alien away, carving a hundred-meter-long trench in the ice before finally stopping.

"How is this possible... so strong..." The Magma alien lying on the ground said in disbelief.

Not long ago, I even destroyed Planet L77, but after coming to Earth, I was easily defeated.

This planet is terrifying!

One sword shatters the tyrant's soul.

Qi Ming was not surprised at all. The Magma aliens in the original series were only able to be driven away by Leo in the first episode, so compared to Agul V2, it was like a ridiculous attempt to get to the moon. In a one-on-one fight, Agul could kill him within five moves.

But he has helpers.

After knocking the Magma alien to the ground, Agul charged up his Purifier again, unleashing a blue destructive beam at the Magma alien.

The twin monsters brought by the Magma aliens tightly embraced each other, began to spin rapidly, and released energy from their bodies to form a blue barrier.

This is the twin brothers' signature combined attack technique, "Kiras Spin".

This move blocked Seven's head crest and knocked Leo away in the original series; in this world, it also blocked Agul's Purifier.

The next moment, Reijubas breathed out cold air again, and Agul hurriedly rolled to dodge.

Before he could even regain his footing, the destructive beam from Daisymania struck his right shoulder. The excruciating pain of the energy explosion caused Agul to stagger, and the Holy Sword of Agul vanished.

"Attack! We must take down this guy before we can conquer Earth!" The Magma alien, whose pride was wounded by being cut down in one move, angrily commanded its monsters.

The twin monsters' horns suddenly glowed with a blinding red light, and two blazing beams of destructive light shot out in a crisscross pattern, heading straight for Agul. The crimson tentacles of the Light-Heat Magic Stone pierced through the air like spears.

Faced with fierce attacks from all directions, Agul dodged and weaved, but was still forced to retreat step by step, and the rhythm of the battle was completely disrupted.

"Whoosh—!" Barak seized the opening and suddenly opened fire. The cannonball slammed into Agul's back, causing Agul's body to lurch forward.

The Numart aliens inside looked at the disheveled Agul with satisfaction in their eyes.

The departure of the Agul Light, which they had painstakingly gathered, leaving the long-awaiting Nonmalt aliens resentful to this day.

In their view, Agul should have been a sword for Nonmart to fight for land for Nonmart, but instead he stood on the opposite side.

If I can't have you, then I'll destroy you!

"Go, last Garros, crush him!" the Nonmalt shouted.

The next moment, a huge black shadow burst out of the waves. A monster resembling an octopus swung its thick tentacles and landed on the battlefield, charging towards Agul.

This is the octopus monster [Galos] controlled by Nonmarte!
It brandished its tentacles and slashed at Agul.

Fujimiya gritted his teeth, spun around, and delivered a fierce whip kick that sent Galos flying.

But the moment he withdrew his strength, the attacks of the other monsters poured down like a torrential rain!

The Twin Monsters' destructive beams, the Light-Heat Magic Stone's tentacle thrusts, and the Daisymania's energy blasts... the continuous bombardment caused Agul's body to tremble violently, stagger backward, and the timer on his chest to begin flashing.

Qi Ming at the underwater base: "..."

The second battle after getting Agul V2 started to suffer setbacks, which is very Fujimiya-esque.

But he said he understood.

Even now, Agul V2 remains the strongest fighter in Antarctica, but he faces far too many enemies.

Magma aliens and the twin monsters and the Light and Heat Magic Stones they brought with them.

The Barak ship piloted by Nummarte and the octopus monster.

The all-around offensive and defensive Dicymania.

There's also Reijubas, who can breathe cold air, keeping Agul on his guard at all times.

One against eight!

Even Qi Ming had never dealt with so many enemies at the same time.

Fortunately, Qi Ming had just dealt with the souls of the Daisima Galaxy people; otherwise, if it had activated the Cosmic Steel Dragon, Agul would be fighting nine against one.

Huimei: "Agul seems to be about to collapse."

Qi Ming's expression was solemn. The moment he regained control of the underwater base, he thought a full-scale counterattack was about to begin.

The arrival of the Magma aliens caused the situation to fluctuate again.

“I really want to help, but I don’t have any Star Gift left.” Qi Ming frowned.

This is the pain point of Ultraman's random key; ten star points is the upper limit.

If you don't immediately perform Star Gathering after your Star Blessing is full at 10 points, then every second that follows is a waste.

But what if a monster event occurs immediately after the stars converge...?

Qi Ming had been troubled by this for a long time. When the creator of the Ultraman random button appeared in front of him, he would definitely grab her by the neck and ask her why she designed it this way.

Hui Mei thought for a moment: "If we don't have a star gift, wouldn't killing a few monsters on the spot solve the problem?"

--------------

Because no animals other than monsters appeared in the episode "The Mobile Fortress Cannot Rise," I forgot about the Antarctic ecosystem.

Thanks to the reminder from the reader in this chapter, I immediately realized what was going on and quickly had the monster kill some penguins to make the event more realistic.

The second update, at least 3,000 words, will definitely be posted before 2 AM, because that's when it will be included in the daily reading list.

In other words, today's output is actually three watches of the night!
