Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 526 Homecoming Chapter 522. Transformation Under the Spotlight, Access [The One] (5000-word long chapter)
On a sleeper berth of a train.

Teacher Zhang, who had previously been "angry at Qi Ming for his lack of ambition," sat on the bed, holding the Ultraman Tiga toy she had bought.

Several passengers nearby had just offered to buy the toy, but she refused them all.

"Beep beep..." Suddenly, the phone issued an emergency notification, informing Teacher Zhang that shortly after he left Jingzhou City, a monster had attacked the city.

She opened the live stream and saw Silver Dragon dominating Red King.

Looking at the familiar buildings in the picture, Teacher Zhang felt a sense of oppression in her heart.

Others probably also received notifications from major media outlets, and upon opening them, they saw the battle between the two monsters.

Suddenly, the camera shot upwards, revealing pitch-black wings that sent a chill down the spine and caused an uproar in the carriage.

"It's The One! It has appeared in our country!"

"Oh no, oh no, The One is here, that city is going to fall."

"That silver dragon can't take on two at once, right? We're doomed. I wonder how many people will die this time."

Teacher Zhang's heart sank to the bottom, feeling that school would not be able to start in September—because the entire city, including the school, was probably doomed.

Suddenly, the camera panned and focused on a handsome young man.

"What is the photographer shooting? I want to see a monster!"

"Hey, what a handsome young man. What does it mean that he's walking towards the monster?"

Teacher Zhang was also struck dumb. Wasn't this Qi Ming?

How could he be in such a dangerous place? Isn't he afraid of dying? His series of abnormal actions lately, has he really gone mad?
"Dad, Mom, watch closely, here comes my transformation."

The next moment, Qi Ming in the camera lens took a picture of the watch face.

A blinding light burst forth, and a stream of light rose up, transforming into a colossal figure.

His skin was predominantly red, with gold and silver-toned decks covering his chest and shoulders, and a bright blue timer on his chest.

Ultraman Max, here he comes!
He looked up and stared at [The One]. The latter, which was originally diving, suddenly stopped and looked at Max who had appeared with a look of surprise and doubt.

The guys below are up to no good!
The female host in front of the camera was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "I'm not seeing things, am I? This isn't a dream, is it? That young man just now, he turned into a giant of light!"

After these words were spoken, the people on the train erupted in uproar.

"A human turned into Ultraman! Ultraman really is a human in disguise!"

"Great! That means Ultraman is one of us!"

Unlike the chattering crowd, Teacher Zhang looked petrified, then suddenly pinched her thigh.

it hurts!

Then it seems I wasn't dreaming!

Qi Ming really did become Ultraman! He became the hero who carries people's hopes!
Recalling the embarrassed look on his face after she caught him yesterday and gave him a lecture, she found it hard to imagine him as this imposing giant.

Perhaps I really misunderstood Qi Ming; he wasn't just messing around for the better part of a month that he was missing!

Meanwhile, the school's WeChat work groups started flooded with messages.

"That guy who just transformed on TV, wasn't that Qi Ming from the student council?"

"There's no mistake, it's him!"

....................................

On-site in Jingzhou City.

Gazing at Max's towering figure, Qi Ming's three elders were all speechless with shock.

Qi Ming turned into Ultraman?
When Qi Ming demonstrated his ability to summon and control monsters, they were already stunned by this unexpected surprise.

In their view, Ultraman is undoubtedly a supreme god, but Reionics, who can summon monsters, is also very strong.

Those who possess the ability to contend with monsters that defy reason will be treasured and revered by nations and all of humanity.

Now, Qi Ming's surprise has been doubled.

He is not only a Reionics who can control monsters, but he can also transform into Ultraman and fight!
All the miracles came together for him!

"Dad, Mom, do you feel like your son has suddenly grown up?"

Max turned around and looked down at the three people below. Qi Ming's voice rang out, and everyone around could hear it clearly.

The group, who had been frozen in shock, were stunned once again. Ultraman was talking to them!
Old Qi's face twitched: "I've been unable to figure you out for a long time, but suddenly growing to fifty meters is just too much..."

Qi Ming: "Haha, Lao Qi, your sense of humor has improved."

Before Lao Qi could say anything more, his expression suddenly changed, because after observing for a while, The One in the sky suddenly swooped down towards Max's back.

Chen Yang: "Watch out!"

"If this kind of sneak attack could work on me, I would have died dozens of times over." Qi Ming turned around and threw the ice axe. A silver light streaked across the sky, and the ice axe accurately hit the right wing root of [The·One].

"Pfft!" The purplish-black corrosive blood splattered like a torrential rain.

The unbalanced [The One] let out a twisted wail, its massive body spinning and crashing to the ground like a shot-down crow, sending up a mushroom cloud of dust.

"Since this didn't kill him, let's try again."

The next moment, captured by the reporter's camera, Ultraman Max charged towards the falling "The One".

He grabbed The One's shoulder, leaped forward and slammed his elbow down, then followed up with a powerful swinging punch, delivering another devastating blow to The One.

【The·One】Enduring the pain, he swung his right claw to counterattack. Qi Ming leaned back to dodge and then countered with a high sweeping punch, followed by a series of punches to his head.

Qi Ming's offensive was wide and sweeping, showcasing Max's fastest and strongest style. His relentless attacks forced The One to retreat repeatedly.

But Qi Ming was also very surprised. He could sense that The One's strength was probably at the B+ level.

It's terrifying that it has evolved to this extent in just over half a month. No wonder it's an enemy that Ultraman Noa has to chase after personally.

But when it comes to itself, its days of wreaking havoc are destined to end today.

Watching Max dominating The One, Old Qi's teacher, Mr. Gao, squinted and suddenly said, "This shouldn't be Ultraman Tiga, right?"

Old Qi immediately said, "No, it should be other Ultraman, I can't remember their names."

He's watched over ten episodes of Ultraman Tiga, and all he knows about Ultraman Tiga is how he changes color.

Teacher Gao: "Hmm... It's okay, as long as we can defeat these monsters."

In fact, not only this teacher Gao, but citizens all over the country are also discussing this matter intensely.

"That person has turned into Ultraman Tiga!"

"Don't call every Ultraman Tiga. That's not Tiga, it's Ultraman Max!"

"Oh, I remember, in that movie where a thousand Ultramen fought a thousand monsters, he was knocked down by Belial's two blows."

"I've seen that meme before! It's about him touching his head and then his ice axe falls into the water, and he's touching it in the water in that GIF!"

"There was also the image of him holding a car and swaying it from side to side, and then the car fell from his hands."

"Is he a funny Ultraman? But he looks really fierce and strong."

Some veteran Ultraman fans were very excited, saying that this is what the fastest and strongest Max should look like.

"Max's Maxim Cannon can eliminate enemies at the molecular level, so we don't have to worry about the spread of the alien factor!"

"We were worried that Tiga wouldn't be able to handle The One, but now we can rest easy, haha."

"However, who was the guy who transformed into Max before? That guy was definitely not Kaito Toma, and he didn't use the Max Spark either."

"It might be Ultraman in human form."

"Then why did he just call them Mom and Dad? Did Ultraman come to Earth and ask for a mother?"

In fact, quite a few people know Qi Ming.

Student Union Vice President Yuan Hua: "Holy crap, isn't that our Student Union President Qi Ming? President Qi has turned into light?"

"Damn, the student council president of our Handong University of Political Science and Law can turn into Ultraman! That's way better than the student council president of Kassel College in Dragon Raja!"

"What's so special about Kassel College? I think even Voldemort from Hogwarts would be crushed by Chairman Qi!"

In Nanbo City, Qing Zizai, who had once taught Qi Ming martial arts, was stunned as he watched Qi Ming transform into Max and deliver a powerful blow to [The One].

"This is the Lightning Wind-Cutting Kick, and the Vajra Mountain and Sea Fist... These are all moves I taught Qi Ming."

"How did he suddenly become Ultraman?"

When Qing Zizai taught him these moves, besides appreciating his talent, he also thought that if one day their combat strength became lacking, he would let Qi Ming, this "substitute player," fill in.

But now that I look at it... he's turned into Ultraman, and he can defeat all evil in no time.

The video has spread to the internet, and many foreign netizens recognized Qi Ming. "Isn't that the guy who took down three kangaroos at the London Zoo before!"

"If it's Ultraman, then that's understandable."

Many members of The One cult were also wailing like their mothers had died: "No, Lord The One, no!"

What I'm most worried about are those bishops and priests. It looks like The One is about to collapse, and they will definitely be purged later.

The position and wealth they previously acquired will all have to be returned in double measure, and they may spend the rest of their lives in prison, or even face the death penalty!

In a residence in Beijing, Qi Ming's favorite "Uncle Monkey" was watching a live stream with his wife, both of them wearing expressions of utter disbelief.

"That's Qi Ming from our senior's family, right..."

"Yes, it must be right."

Previously, when Qi Ming showed his "unconventional" ways and was suppressed and criticized by Lao Qi, this Uncle Monkey had advised that senior student.

He said he had high hopes for Qi Ming and believed that Qi Ming's future achievements would definitely surpass theirs, and that they should be more open-minded.

The result is that this is beyond... This is just too amazing!
..........................................

On the battlefield, The One, who had been suppressed by Qi Ming the whole time, finally seized an opening and retaliated by spitting out a blue Super Flame Bullet.

Max glanced at the building behind him and decisively deployed a barrier to block it.

After blocking, he quickly closed in on [The·One], delivering a high sweeping kick to the head followed by a leaping knee strike, leaving the latter severely injured.

Max's stats are higher than [The·One]'s, and Qi Ming's fighting skills are unparalleled, so it's a one-sided affair.

In this situation, The One was basically unable to counterattack, and escaping was out of the question.

This thrilled the audience, who cheered repeatedly.

"Now's the time!" After defeating [The One], Qi Ming gathered his energy and unleashed his ultimate move.

Markusium Cannon!

A dazzling stream of light struck [The·One], who let out a painful roar and staggered backward.

"He's unleashing a deadly beam!"

"It's time to decide the outcome!"

"Go, Ultraman! Go, Ultraman!"

This scene brought the atmosphere to its peak, with many viewers unable to resist shouting and cheering for Ultraman Max.

Kill [The One], then we won't have to be afraid of him anymore!
"Ha!" Qi Ming roared, his heart surging with excitement as he increased his strength.

What ordinary people fear as "The One" is also Qi Ming's nightmare.
After learning that [The One] had arrived at his home, Qi Ming was filled with worry and torment while in the mixed universe, fearing that everything would be different when he returned.

Now, let's end it!

The next moment, the powerful Markshum Cannon completely pierced through The One's body.

The latter suddenly collapsed and vanished completely.

A blue dot of light floated out from the spot where [The One] died, foreshadowing its end.

"Great, that way we won't leave any alien beast genes behind..." Qi Ming breathed a long sigh of relief.

The moment The One fell, the entire land of China and the entire Earth erupted in jubilation.

On the one hand, the monster they regarded as a sign of the end of the world has finally been defeated!

On one hand, humans now have beings capable of transforming into Ultraman, and they have a trustworthy guardian deity!

"Long live Ultraman!"

"Awesome! Chairman Qi is awesome!"

..........................................

【Access/Conversion】.

Upon seeing this, Qi Ming fell silent for a moment, feeling extremely conflicted.

He transformed the previous Sphia black hole and Chaos head.

On one hand, Qi Ming found these two things disgusting, and on the other hand, he didn't want to leave a backup of something that could assimilate other creatures in his random key.

But now, facing [The One], he hesitated, which was unusual for him.

After resolving the issues in the hybrid universe, he will return to work with his comrades there to completely eradicate the darkness there.

Although we don't know if it was The One that turned Ultraman Noah into Nexus.

However, judging from its current rate of evolution, this thing has extremely strong growth potential.

What if we need to use it in a desperate situation someday?

But if it evolves into this cannibalistic evolution... did I become it, or did it assimilate me?
"I'll save it. Hopefully, I won't need it in the future." Qi Ming hesitated for a long time before finally choosing [Save/Retrieve].

Star Gift: 5.
Maximum amplification: 42/80.
Regardless, the matter that had troubled him for so long was finally over; [The One] no longer had the chance to massacre his hometown.

He gave a "V" sign to his parents and Grandpa Gao: "Done."

Ultraman gestured to the crowd, which drew another round of cheers from below.

Old Qi and Max exchanged glances, listening to the cheers of the surrounding crowd, and sighed with emotion.

"Great, great, great! My son is a hero who saved the world! This life has been worth it, so worth it!" He suddenly burst into laughter.

Grandpa Gao came to Old Qi's side with a longing look on his face: "The days ahead will be wonderful, a glorious and great era is coming."

"Ding-dong—ding-dong—ding-dong." Suddenly, Max's color timer started flashing.

"There's not enough time, we need to deal with this quickly." Qi Ming looked at Red King, who was being held down by the silver dragon, grabbed him abruptly, and flew into space.

He needs to handle hydrogen bombs in outer space.

..........................................

Meanwhile, in the 13th district of the United States.

Sheriff Xiaoyu and her friends, whom Qi Minggang had just met, watched the entire episode of Max defeating "The One" through their own channels, and they were overjoyed.

As expected of Mr. Qi Ming!
That monster that everyone was terrified of has finally been dealt with!
Just then, an uninvited guest arrived.

It was a special envoy sent by the president, who said that they had investigated the leak in District 13 and wanted Xiaoyu to go with them.

The truth eventually came out.

Under the leadership of Sergeant Jade, District 13 has always been in disarray, and the president wants to take this opportunity to replace him with a leader who is highly obedient to orders.

Faced with the persistent questioning from the commissioner, Chief Inspector Xiaoyu appeared nonchalant: "So, do you want to know who we leaked the information to?"

The commissioner thought she was just putting on airs: "Let's explain in court."

Sheriff Xiaoyu: "Hehe, let me show you something new."

She took out a photo she had taken earlier and pointed to Qi Ming in the group photo: "I gave this information to Mr. Qi Ming. Do you know him?"

The commissioner's expression changed drastically as he looked at Qi Ming's face. Who doesn't recognize this face now that has transformed in front of everyone and defeated the threat to all of humanity?
Is this a composite image? No, this person's identity was only revealed a few minutes ago.

"Don't underestimate our intelligence network in District 13. We knew a long time ago that Mr. Qi Ming was Ultraman, so we cooperated with him."

She took out the intelligence that Qi Ming had obtained from Charlie and handed it to the commissioner. The more the commissioner looked at it, the more he felt it was a hot potato.

"If you think our cooperation with Ultraman is treason, then arrest me."

Chief Inspector Xiaoyu raised her hands, looking as if she wanted the commissioner to arrest her.

But the previously aggressive commissioner looked like he'd seen a ghost when he saw the photos and documents, and kept backing away from the target he needed to arrest.

"Please wait a moment. I don't have the authority to make this decision. I need to consult with my superiors." His tone changed, and he quickly went out to make a phone call.

Three minutes later, he returned, his previously stern face now replaced by a smile.

"The President highly commended District 13 for its quick thinking and will greatly praise your outstanding intelligence capabilities and your contributions to assisting Ultraman."

"Without a doubt, you are heroes of the Earth and humanity, and the recognition will come soon."

"Besides that, the president also asked me to inquire about something—he also wants to take a photo with Mr. Qi Ming, who has transformed into Ultraman. Can you help with that?"
