Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 440, Section 436: The Will of the Ultimate Life Form, Qi Ming Saves the Beauty

On the villains' association's spaceship, gazing at the massive planet Melani ahead, the pilot said, "This is the planet 'Lord Zuo Lin' was talking about."

Zuo Lin, a Jettonian, is the president of the Villain Association.

The situation in the universe is becoming increasingly chaotic, but Zuo Lin believes that this is a great opportunity and a "great era".

At his call, some bloodthirsty aliens united to form the Villain Association.

"As long as we can concentrate our strength, we can conquer one planet after another, one galaxy after another!"

"Finally, we might even be able to conquer Earth, which is guarded by multiple Ultra Warriors, and seize the power of the Eternal Core!"

After preparing to land on Melani, the pilot addressed the Hawkian sitting in the main seat, holding a combat device:

"According to Lord Zuo Lin's intelligence, there may be a creature on it that is regarded as the god of luck by the planet Fabilas. If captured, it can be auctioned off."

“There’s also a powerful destructive beast called ‘Mossaga’… I know it might be useful to you, but recently a guy named [Chariga] has also wanted to buy monsters from us.”

"Lord Zuo Lin believes that the Villain Association has only just been established, and now is the time to make a name for itself, so..."

The Hawk alien shook his battle device and said, "It's alright, I believe there will be better monsters on Earth, but don't forget the promise you made before."

The driver nodded repeatedly: "Our Villain Association will do everything in its power to help you win the upcoming 'Battle of Reonics' and make you Reiblood's successor!"

The Hawk alien nodded in satisfaction: "That's good."

More than four months ago, many Reonics born due to the Reiblood gene appeared on his planet Hawk.

Those Hawk aliens, like him, carried battle devices that could summon monsters to fight, and were driven by the Reonics' warlike instincts to wage war against each other.

Finally, it underwent an awakening, its Reionics power surging, becoming the "Awakened" Reionics.

Amplified by the power of Reionics, its monster strength soared, allowing it to wipe out its rivals and win the civil war among the Hawkians.

But then, the great will of the ultimate life form, the Reibloodian, appeared, telling it that becoming the strongest Reionics on Planet Hawk was just the beginning.

Its next destination is a planet called "Earth," where it will compete against the Reonics who have won their civil war on other planets.

Only the Reonics that wins in the end are qualified to become its successor Reiblood and reign supreme in the universe!

"To rule the universe, huh? I can't wait," the Hawk alien thought to himself.

The villains' association's spaceship was about to land, but the pilot suddenly detected new information on the radar—a comet with a radius of 200 kilometers was heading in this direction.

But seeing that Melanie was not on its path, the driver was relieved.

"Mr. Qi Ming, we've found it. There are faint signs of life in this underground cave."

After searching for a while, Torregia locked onto his target.

The cave may contain Hanaijiro, or it may contain the dormant Mosya, or it may contain both of them in the same place.

Qi Ming: "Well done, your skills have saved us a lot of trouble."

In order to give Torregia the feeling that "I have been helpful and I am useful" to combat his inferiority complex that could easily distort his personality, Qi Ming now takes every opportunity to praise him.

Thankfully, Toregia is male, otherwise Carmilla would have objected.

“The opening is too small for us to fit through now,” Seven said, looking down.

Carmilla: "Simple, just make the opening bigger." She then started to forcibly demolish it.

Qi Ming stopped her destructive behavior, saying that it might frighten Hanaijiro, and that they could just shrink down.

After saying that, he was the first to deactivate his transformation, turning into Qi Ming wearing a Victory Team uniform: "Finally back to normal."

With him leading the way, Seven transformed back into Dan Moroboshi, and Tregear and Carmilla also transformed into human forms. The group then arrived at the cave together.

After walking for about five minutes, the group heard loud gunfire and footsteps ahead.

Dan Moroboshi was taken aback: "How could this be?"

Wasn't it said that the only living creatures on this planet were Hanaijiro and a sleeping Mos'ajia?

Qi Ming: "It seems that we are not the only ones who have visited this planet recently."

The next moment, a creature with wings on its back, blue eyes, and blood dripping from the corner of its mouth, resembling a plush toy, flashed around the corner ahead and flew towards them, colliding head-on with Qi Ming.

Qi Ming: "Hanajiro!" Unexpectedly, just five minutes later, Hanaijiro appeared in front of everyone in a state of "frightened bird".

Dan Moroboshi: "It looks panicked, like it's being chased by something. Was it those gunshots just now?"

Qi Ming: "You'll see when you get there."

After saying that, he gently grabbed Hanejiro, who was even more flustered after bumping into him: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you."

Dan Moroboshi also said, "That's right, we are good people and we will protect you."

Toregia magically pulled a cotton ball from his pocket and wiped Hanejiro's wounds, and even Carmila couldn't help but pat Hanejiro's head.

With everyone's reassurance, Hanaijiro, who had been terrified, gradually calmed down and stopped struggling violently.

At this moment, five aliens dressed in black, carrying guns, and with human-like builds appeared—the capture team that had come down from the villain association's spaceship!
Using the intelligence Zuo Lin possessed, they found Hanaijiro first, intending to shoot him until he was unable to resist and then capture him for auction.

Unexpectedly, they made a mistake, allowing Hanaijiro, who was familiar with the terrain, to run to Qiming's side.

Upon seeing the capture team that had attacked him without warning, Hanaijiro in Qi Ming's arms couldn't help but tremble.

Upon seeing Qi Ming and his group carrying Hanaijiro, the leader of the capture team immediately regarded them as competitors and, without hesitation, ordered his teammates to open fire, intending to kill Qi Ming and his companions outright.

"Dare to attack us? You're asking for death!" Carmila, who was the first to react, drew her light whip and deflected the bullets fired by the capture team in a few swift movements.

When Dan Moroboshi saw that the enemy was determined to kill them all, he realized that the enemy was no good. He immediately told everyone to use the rocks as cover and then took out the Victory Hyper Gun to fight back.

A fierce battle suddenly broke out, and Torregia, who had also scurried behind cover, cried out, "Does anyone have a gun for me?!"

Qi Ming handed Hanaijiro to him, saying, "Take good care of Hanaijiro so that we have no worries. That's the best help you can give us."

After handing over Hanaijiro, Qiming stepped forward to join the battle.

Being entrusted with such an important mission by the Villain Association, this capture team leader was also quite capable. He threw out a smoke bomb, releasing a large amount of smoke that obscured everyone's vision.

He then put on thermal imaging goggles, aimed at the target, and fired.

Carmilla didn't take the few minor aliens seriously, so she didn't retreat behind cover. Standing at the forefront, she became the primary target.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The special bullets were fired again. Because of the smoke grenade, Carmila could not judge the trajectory of the bullets and immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

To grow bigger? It's too late. This looming sense of crisis is...

At this critical moment, Qi Ming, who had activated [Insight], stood in front of her, extending his slender, fair right hand to precisely catch the bullet that had almost hit her between the eyebrows.

"Are you alright?" Qi Ming glanced back at Carmilla, then turned around as if he'd been electrocuted. "You... cough cough, don't always underestimate your opponents like this. It's not good to be caught off guard and suffer a setback. I can't always be there to protect you."

After saying that, he suddenly threw the bullet in his hand at the captain of the capture team, and a scream came from the smoke.

"That guy's been taken care of," Qi Ming said without turning his head.

"I...I'm fine," Carmilla said, regaining her senses.

He protected her at the crucial moment, and then swiftly and decisively eliminated the enemy who had almost injured her.

In Carmila's eyes, it was so reassuring and so attractive!

He truly is her soulmate; every gesture he makes touches her heartstrings.

If only these annoying guys weren't around... She really wanted to pounce on Qi Ming right then and there.

Carmilla then asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why is your face so red?"

Qi Ming: "Don't worry about it."

After saying that, he went to the members of the capture team who were lying on the ground unable to move, and shot each of them again. He was relieved to make sure they were dead.

Torregia carried Hanaijiro forward, and Qi Ming pointed at the corpses and said, "I've avenged you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the cave began to tremble violently.

Qi Ming: "Did the commotion of the battle disturb the sleeping Mos'ajia? Hanaijiro, today we'll settle both our old and new scores for you!"
