Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 631, Section 627: Beidou: Where is hell in this world? It's practically heaven!

I had just forgotten that Commander Takakura had already died in this world, but I accidentally resurrected him and wrote "Holy crap!"

However, everything is fine now. The previous chapter has been revised. Readers who subscribed at the beginning and saw Commander Takakura's resurrection can simply refresh the page.

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

Two nights after the approaching star "Red Rose" was dealt with.

Beidou pilots the Feiyan-1 satellite to patrol the night sky.

The aircraft sliced ​​through the clouds, and outside the cockpit lay a deep blue sky dotted with stars. The control stick was in my hand, and the engine hummed softly in my ear—all of this evoked a deep sense of nostalgia for Beidou.

And then... came something even more nostalgic.

A ship came into his view.

"Calling the command center, calling headquarters, this is the Hokuto Star Division, I am patrolling over Junhe Bay."

"Something's wrong here! I see a ship flying in the air!"

“I know this sounds unbelievable, but it’s true, I’m not dreaming!”

Soon, a voice came from the mountains on the other end of the communication channel: "Beidou team member, are you awake? You're really making a fuss over nothing."

"It's a period of frequent monster outbreaks, with all sorts of monsters and aliens causing trouble. They have all sorts of incredible abilities, so what's so strange about them making ships fly in the air?"

At this moment, Huimei said, "But the radar shows that there is only the Flying Swallow No. 1 in that airspace."

Kishida: "The other side may have technology to block radar detection, so we need to be careful."

Saijo Nagi: "What's the purpose of making the ship fly? Is it to be used as a falling object to smash the city? Hokuto team members, hurry up and follow them."

Beidou: “…”

What kind of number is this?
You believe me now?

If the radar fails to detect the ship, shouldn't you suspect that I'm delirious from the heat, or that I'm seeing a mirage, and then start spouting off about how "theoretically, ships can't fly into the sky"?
They actually accepted his report without any doubt and even started analyzing the enemy's tactics?
Even the people in the mountains didn't raise any objections!
All the explanations he had prepared got stuck in his throat, his feelings too complicated to express.

"I understand... Oh no, that cruise ship accelerated and left me behind. It must have landed in the nearby sea."

Saijo Nagi: "Did you take notes on the ship's features?"

Beidou: "Yes, I remember what the flag hanging at the bow of the ship looked like."

Saijo Nagi: "Then come back first, and we'll begin a detailed search tomorrow at dawn."

Beidou: "Okay."

Back in the command room, Beidou and Qiming met up.

Qi Ming had just learned about the situation and made the ship fly in the air. This plot comes from episode 20 of "Ace", titled "Star of Youth! Star of Two".

The ship was able to fly because a giant cicada beast moved it using its telekinetic powers.

However, he couldn't remember exactly why they had to move the ship.

All I remember is that "Kotaro" and "Hokuto" were fighting each other in this episode, calling each other bastards...

"Go and investigate this thoroughly."

The next day, Yamanaka and Hokuto drove the Sherlock car and inspected each ship along the Junga Bay.

Just then, an unexpected guest offered them a clue.

"Are you looking for a ship that flew by? We have some information that we can provide to you free of charge," a man with a blank expression approached.

Beidou immediately sensed something unusual about him and, using his Ultra Eye, saw that he was indeed an alien.

"You're not human, are you?"

“That’s right, I am a Shad alien, you can call me Zena.”

Beidou's gaze sharpened: "Why would aliens provide intelligence to humanity? What are your motives?"

Zena remained expressionless: "Not all aliens are like the Evil Association, wanting to create chaos for profit."

Beidou: "The Villain Association?"

Zena nodded: "After Yapool was killed by Director Qi Ming of TPC, the Villain Association found several Super Beasts it left behind and planned to use them for sabotage."

“But we are different from them. We are an organization composed of a group of extraterrestrials who hope to live a peaceful life on Earth, and the stability of Earth's order is also in our interest.”

"According to our intelligence, the Zuru Star People obtained a super beast from the Evil People Association, and will launch an attack after completing the power test."

"It may have already disguised itself as a human and is blending into the crowd. You must be careful."

Beidou finally asked, "What is your organization?"

When asked about this, Zena paused for a moment: "Our organization...is somewhat controversial."

Beidou thought this made perfect sense; it sounded incredible that some aliens would unite to protect the peace of Earth.

There are definitely different voices within this organization—whether it's protecting humanity's planet or protecting our planet.

Zena continued, "The current point of contention is the name of the organization."

"I propose calling it the Alien Investigation Bureau, or AIB for short."

"But our organization's leader has a very long name... and for some reason, everyone else is very supportive of that name."

Beidou: "?"

Is the issue not about the route, but rather a dispute over the name?

He asked curiously, "What's your name?"

Even Zena, who usually had a stoic expression, couldn't help but twitch when he thought of that name: "It's called... 'All the aliens in the world who don't do bad things unite as one family.'" After saying that, he pointed out the direction of the ship from last night to Hokuto and quickly left, leaving Hokuto bewildered in the wind.

This hybrid universe... is really exciting.

"What's wrong, Beidou?" At this moment, Shanzhong, who had just heard the news elsewhere, came over.

“It’s nothing… I know where that ship is.” He led the man to a dock and saw a ship moored there.

The ship has been converted into a mobile hotel, becoming a popular destination for tourists to relax and vacation.

The flag hanging at the bow of the ship is exactly the same as what Beidou saw last night.

"So that means there's a monster lurking nearby, right? We need to evacuate the citizens as soon as possible." Yamanaka immediately contacted the TPC police department for assistance with the evacuation.

Based on Beidou's experience, at this time, many troublemakers will definitely emerge to resist the evacuation, saying things like "I don't believe in any super beasts" or "Don't disturb my leisure time," and then create trouble and disrupt the situation.

As a result... the tourists on the ship evacuated in an orderly manner, with almost no complaints.

Beidou: "?"

They were so coordinated? It's unbelievable.

Such a large-scale evacuation is tantamount to telling the hidden mastermind, "We already know of your existence."

The next moment, the nearby sea surface suddenly surged, and a huge super beast with cicada-like features broke through the waves.

The giant cicada beast [Gemistra] has arrived!

It used its telekinetic power to lift a 200,000-ton ship into the air!

As soon as the giant cicada beast appeared, it seemed to have received some kind of command and charged aggressively towards the city.

"Link mode, Dyna Strike Vehicle!" Yamanaka immediately summoned the Strike Vehicle and engaged in fierce combat with it.

Beidou realized that if the fighting continued, it would affect the city, so he secretly transformed.

Two Ultra Rings appeared on the middle fingers of his left and right hands. He suddenly clashed the two rings together in front of his chest, and a dazzling light burst forth instantly.

Ultraman Ace appeared amidst the radiance, majestically descending before the Great Cicada Super Beast!
Looking at the giant cicada beast before him, Ace was filled with emotion.

This giant cicada beast that makes ships fly in the air—I fought it a long, long time ago.

At that time, he and Minami Yuko completed the transformation together...

However, now, he no longer needs to engage in fierce battles to deal with super beasts of this level.

Soon, Ultraman Ace launched an attack, and the giant cicada beast was overwhelmed by the fierce offensive and had no chance to fight back.

Just half a minute later, a decapitation blade flashed, and the super beast was cut in half at the waist and crashed to the ground.

A green light floated out from its dead corpse and was absorbed by Qi Ming, who was "passing by" on the Dyna Wings, and converted into 1 point of Star Gift.

"The battle is over, but this super beast seems to be controlled by someone. I will continue to investigate the alien who is controlling it."

"Understood, I'll have the other team members come to support you."

Fengyuan and Kishida were also dispatched to assist in the search.

An hour later, Beidou spotted a suspicious-looking old man acting furtively.

He was wearing a hat and standing in the shadows, deliberately turning his back to them to avoid eye contact. He was holding a phone, his face grim, as if he were talking to someone.

Activating the Ultra Eye once again, Hokuto saw through the old man's true form—this was the [Zuru Alien] that Zena had mentioned before!
That's it! It wants to control the giant cicada beast and invade Earth!
Hokuto immediately pulled out his Victory Hyper gun, and Kishida, who was standing next to him, was shocked to see him pull out a gun in public: "What are you going to do!"

Beidou: "That old man is an alien!"

Kishida: "Really?"

Beidou: "Really!"

He planned to first approach the old man, incapacitate him, then interrogate him to force him to reveal his identity and prove it to Kishida…

The next second, Kishida shouted "Yoshi!" and pulled out his Victory Hyper gun, firing at the old man.

A laser beam pierced through the old man's chest.

The old man looked on incredulously, turned his head with difficulty, glanced at the two of them with resentment, swayed, and collapsed.

Beidou: "?"

Is it that direct? Do you really trust me?

"Oh my god, look! The Victory Team has killed someone!" The nearby citizens were in an uproar.

"Don't panic. That guy was killed by the GUTS team, so he must have been a bad guy."

"They might be aliens who want to invade our Earth!"

Before Beidou could even begin to explain, some citizens had already stepped forward to defend them.

Soon, the old man revealed his true form as an alien. The citizens, upon seeing that he was indeed an alien, immediately had an "I knew it" look on their faces.

This made Beidou ponder.

He remembered how the aggressive citizens he encountered back when he was on the TAC team weren't like this at all...

Isn't it said that this world is like hell, where you don't have the right timing, location, or people?
But in his eyes, it had everything!
The top leadership is wise and understanding, the team protecting Earth has an excellent atmosphere, there is a high degree of trust among the members, the citizens fully cooperate and support TPC, there are many Ultramen stationed there, aliens are willing to provide them with assistance, and it is said that they also have a good relationship with Earth's native monsters...

These conditions are much better than when he was on the TAC team.

This world is no hell, it's heaven!
