I am Gatanothor, Seven x Human Form

On my way home from get off work.

Wumaquan drove leisurely to a Hawaiian restaurant and enjoyed Chef Obik's culinary skills.

After the resort was built, Obik returned to the Hawaiian restaurant as its head chef. The restaurant regained its reputation thanks to Obik's return, and the kitchen was able to produce its signature dishes again, attracting many customers.

At the same time, the Pioneers were targeting Sato Miriko and Wuma Izumi. They discovered that one had left the base, while the other had left. After weighing their options, they decided to target Wuma Izumi.

Although the base may contain the information they need, it is clear that as long as one of the leaders is captured, they can at least get what they want through that leader. With one person staying in the base and the other leaving, the one who left the base is obviously easier to capture.

After some analysis, the pioneer found the analysis to be good and even very reasonable, so he decisively launched an attack.

However, just to be on the safe side, they still carried a few monsters with them. After all, they themselves weren't good at fighting, although they were much stronger than Earthlings. It was still better to be safe than sorry; they were the last of the pioneers, and once they were gone, they would truly be gone. Now, any interested individual is a valuable asset.

The pioneers preparing to arrest Wumaquan were divided into two groups. One group went to Wumaquan's home to lie in wait, while the other group followed closely behind, ready to strike at the opportune moment. Because the Earth's waters are treacherous, the group following Wumaquan would continue to secretly follow him if they felt the opportunity wasn't right. Once Wumaquan arrived at his home, the pioneers would coordinate from within and without to capture him, after which they could proceed to the base to obtain what they desired.

After finishing their meal at the Hawaiian restaurant, Wumaquan drove to a deserted side road.

Although the pioneers hid very well, he still managed to discover them.

The Pioneer wanted to find a suitable opportunity to deal with him, and he also wanted to go to a secluded place to properly entertain the Pioneer.

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

At Wumaquan's home.

Because Miko Sato wasn't home, and Izumi Wuma wasn't home either.

So the three little ones could only eat the food at home and enjoy the delicious food there. Although there was plenty of food stored at home, it couldn't withstand the three little ones' wasteful spending, and it was all ruined in no time.

After the food was wasted, the three little ones stayed at home, each doing their own thing. Some played games, some slept, some watched TV—they did whatever made them comfortable. They were living a wonderful life. As monsters, they didn't have to worry about work or study. Eating and drinking well and not running around was a huge blessing to human society.

During their entertainment, the pioneers arrived and spied on them from outside the windows.

Xiao Xi was oblivious and went to sleep soundly.

Xiao Ge noticed something, but she didn't care at all and focused all her attention on the game controller. For her, breaking the game's historical record was the most important thing at the moment. Nothing else was more important than this.

Xiao Qi was the only one puzzled. Where had Sato Miriko put that Qi Jie La flower? To this day, she still couldn't find it. She had gone to Sato's house several times and searched it thoroughly, but she still couldn't find it.

She sensed the traces of the pioneers and couldn't help but look out the window, blinking her bright, lively eyes.

It exuded an extremely evil aura, its entire body reeking of a foul stench, unlike any creature born from Earth.

Feeling a bit down, Xiao Qi smacked her lips. The three of them had stayed home obediently and hadn't gone out. Since the other party had been eyeing this place, they must have some ulterior motive. Perhaps it was an accident, or perhaps it was an enemy of Wumaquan.

She stood up and said, "I'm going out for a little while."

“Okay—” Xiao Ge replied.

Xiao Xi is sleeping.

When the pioneers went outside and saw Xiao Qi come out, they didn't realize that Xiao Qi had discovered them.

After all, they blended perfectly into the nearby woods, concealing themselves within their bodies. To Xiao Qi, they looked like an ordinary little girl, and it was impossible for her to discover their presence. They only needed to stay put.

They didn't think much about what the little girl who suddenly appeared wanted to do; they just paid more attention and glanced at her a few times.

After all, who could have imagined that an ordinary little girl from Wumaquan's family would actually be a giant monster, and a malevolent god-like monster at that, capable of plunging all of humanity into a beautiful dream only to kill them in the next second? In terms of rank, she is on par with the Dark Ruler, only her raw power is inferior.

The pioneers didn't care about Xiao Qi's appearance. What surprised them was that Xiao Qi, who was standing in front of them just a second ago, disappeared from their sight the next second. The pioneers thought they were seeing things, so they rubbed their eyes and looked around to confirm that Xiao Qi had indeed disappeared from their sight for no reason. This made them very surprised.

"Where is she? Such a big person, a living little girl, just vanished right before our eyes?"

"I suddenly had a bad feeling."

"What a ghost."

"Something's not right. Something's definitely not right. Quickly look around."

The pioneers lurking nearby became wary of this unusual phenomenon.

They wanted to find out where Xiao Qi, who had disappeared before their eyes, had gone.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Qi appeared directly behind them with a smile on her face. Her youthful face had a touch of pitifulness about it. She blinked and said, "Hello, you've been hiding here for more than 10 minutes without moving. You've been bitten by mosquitoes without moving at all. You're really persistent."

"!" Alarm bells rang in the hearts of the pioneers, and they frantically retreated, trying to escape from the small jungle.

Xiao Qi is unusual; he's unusual in a way that's more than 12 out of 10.

However, although they wanted to escape, it wasn't so easy. In the few seconds they were delayed, Xiao Qi had already extended tentacles around them. What seemed like an unusual jungle was actually filled with tentacles laid out by Xiao Qi. Several pioneers tried to escape but couldn't, and were caught by the tentacles in no time.

"Hehe~" Xiao Qi laughed.

To the pioneers, it was undoubtedly the smile of a devil. They never imagined that a seemingly insignificant and harmless little girl could so easily control them.

They struggled desperately, but couldn't break free. Instead, they felt as if the parts of themselves trapped by the vines were about to break.

"Who are you?" the pioneer asked.

"Hmm... The Flower of Annihilation? Lord of Dreams and Oblivion? Special Envoy of the Holy Church?" Xiao Qi thought for a moment and rattled off several titles, some given by the Crow People and others by the Holy Church.

"..." The pioneers didn't gain much, but they did learn that the other party must be incredibly powerful; just from the title alone, it sounded impressive. They must be a remarkable figure.

Moreover, a special envoy of the Holy Church? The pioneer analyzed the situation and remained calm in the face of danger.

A religious sect? With such an impressive title, he seems like a very powerful figure, but in reality, he's just a special envoy within the Holy Church.

So, how powerful must the Holy Church become?

Upon closer reflection, they had heard rumors about the Holy Church during their search for suitable creatures to be used as biological weapons for their monsters. It was said to be a global sect whose deity encompassed all things, including the ocean and rivers, and could bless all believers, regardless of race.

However, since they are killers themselves, they are not interested in human sects. But now it seems that this Holy Church is not as weak as imagined, and can even be said to be more powerful than imagined.

The pioneers kept imagining things, even thinking that if they joined the Holy Church, they might be able to use the Holy Church to defeat Ultraman Masaki Keigo.

The Holy God must be very powerful, right?

"Hey, what's your purpose in coming here?" Xiao Qi's words pulled them back from their thoughts.

The pioneers exchanged glances. Many of their companions had already died. Apart from the group still on the deserted island, only their own group, which was out on the search and rescue mission, remained. They couldn't afford to die any more; otherwise, the pioneer race would be wiped out.

Since that's the case, we can only prioritize the overall situation and take a long-term perspective.

To borrow an old saying from Earth, "Where there's life, there's hope." As long as you're alive, why worry about not having a chance to make a comeback?

"We have heard that the Holy Church is renowned and its ideals are profound. All who join the Holy Church will receive the protection of the Holy God. We have come here to join the Holy Church and become disciples of the Holy Envoy."

"?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi's expression turned strange, as if the pioneers were simply climbing the ladder of success.

"How did you know I was a special envoy of the Holy Church before you came? Are you trying to fool me?" Xiao Qi questioned.

The pioneers exchanged another glance. This Holy See envoy wasn't stupid; he wasn't easily fooled. Besides, the Holy See didn't seem as benevolent as legend portrayed. It was toxic!

"We spent a great deal of effort investigating before we learned that there might be a Holy Church envoy here, so we observed the area. Unexpectedly, the Holy Church envoy came to us on his own initiative as soon as we started observing again." Fortunately, these pioneers were not stupid and quickly came up with an excuse.

"Oh~" Xiao Qi blinked and slowly retracted the vines, but did not completely remove them. They were still placed nearby so that they could be used to deal with any unusual movements by the pioneers.

"My lord, may we join the Holy Church?" The pioneers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Qi hadn't attacked and had even released them. Asking this question afterward, they realized that the Holy Church was indeed extraordinary and had the potential to be worth joining. Perhaps they could even gain something better within the Holy Church, who knows?

"I don't know. I'm not in charge of recruiting for the Holy Church, and Holy Church followers don't need to be vetted for their faith. The Holy God alone qualifies you as a follower. But if you want to do well within the Holy Church, you need to have extreme faith in the Holy God, be a fanatical believer. Besides, your special status makes it inconvenient for you to show your faces on Earth. I think this matter should be handled by other Holy Church envoys. If they agree to let you join, then you can join." Xiao Qi didn't want to get involved. Since the other party wanted to join the Holy Church, she'd go with the pioneers; she was merely a figurehead. She hadn't said she wanted to actually do anything for the Holy Church.

Besides, even Wumaquan, the leader of the Holy Church, didn't know that the Holy Church even existed.

"Where can we meet other Holy Church envoys in charge of recruitment?" the pioneers asked. After some conversation, they felt that the Holy Church had potential and was a good place to go; perhaps they could give it a try.

If all else fails, I'll just run away.

"Go to the southeast corner of this area. I reckon there's a Holy Church envoy there. Go ask him; if it works, it works; if not, it doesn't," Xiao Qi directed him.

"Thank you for your guidance, Holy Envoy." The Pioneers spoke in a very refined manner. They wouldn't have spoken like this before. This was mainly because after arriving on Earth, they had crammed on Earth knowledge, which made their speech somewhat biased towards Earth.

After saying this, they got up and set off.

It's worth seeing them once, and it's worth believing in them.

Anyway, it doesn’t cost any money, just have some faith.

Xiao Qi watched the group of pioneers hurrying away, resting his chin on his hand, and secretly placed a pollen mark on these pioneers. If what they said was true or false, then the pollen would take root and sprout on the pioneers, treating them as flesh and blood potted plants.

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

Meanwhile, the pioneers on the other side.

Then he had a close encounter with Wumaquan.

Wumaquan drove south all the way to an abandoned building. This place was still the same place, abandoned by the abandoned manufacturers.

He brought the pioneers who were closely following him here, parked the car steadily, and the good man got out of the car, clapped his hands and said, "Come out, I know you've been following me."

P.S.: Requesting votes, rewards, and even blades of hatred!

Chapter 176 The Peerless Fierce Man

"Has this kid really found us, or is he lying to us?"

"He probably sensed something but wasn't sure, so he said this to try and fool us and see if we were following him. After all, we've been hiding so well, we shouldn't have been discovered."

"Something's not right. Look at how he's been staring at us the whole time. He might have actually spotted us."

"Just try it and you'll see. Move it to the left a bit."

Many pioneers noticed that Wumaquan's eyes were fixed on their direction, but they felt that he probably hadn't noticed them, so they were a little unsure. They all moved to the left, but then they found that Wumaquan's eyes also moved to the left with them.

"Damn it, they've really found us."

"Are our concealment methods really that bad?"

"Fine, he's just an ordinary Earthling. He's been discovered, so be it. Since he's discovered us, let's not be polite. Let's just show up, kidnap him, and then go to the base to get the information we want."

After some discussion, the pioneers who had been hiding in the shadows all came out.

They surrounded Wumaquan, trapping him to prevent his escape. They thought Wumaquan would be shocked to see them, given their striking resemblance to demons from Western legends. However, he wasn't. Instead, Wumaquan looked at them as if they were dead, which greatly displeased them.

"Kid, you're in for a world of trouble." The Pioneers couldn't speak Earth's language, but after arriving on Earth, they adapted to local customs and created a translator to communicate with Earthlings.

"I think you're the ones who'll be in trouble." Wu Maquan hadn't expected that the one secretly following him all along would be a Pioneer. What did he possess that would make the Pioneers covet him? Shouldn't the Pioneers want Earth? What did it have to do with a mere researcher like him?

Moreover, the Pioneers somehow managed to sneak over from the other side of the world to this side without anyone noticing, which explains why we haven't seen any Pacific Rim monsters for so long. They're probably brewing some big surprise.

Seven thought to himself, "Their aura is quite weak. Of all people to choose, they had to pick you."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I can only say they have good taste," Wumaquan said.
