It's highly likely that Toregia brought them here.

Since it can't be transformed into a card, it doesn't even have much interest in the Dark Ring.

Hong Tu was busy cleaning up after the orphans, so he didn't pay any attention to the monster's situation.

I only learned what happened through other channels after the matter was resolved.

The invaders are the Segur aliens. They bought this monster weapon from Tregear more than ten years ago and have been using it to invade many planets.

Because this monster is very special, it cannot be truly destroyed by any means other than using the Nebula Particle Converter. On the contrary, as long as the "summoner" of this monster is still around, this monster can be resurrected again and again.

That's right, this monster was also specially prepared for Taiga.

This is also why the Segul aliens are able to roam freely in the universe.

However, after encountering Taiga, this monster had clearly fulfilled its fate as a "tool" and turned into a monster ring.

However, according to Iges downstairs, it seems that Meryl has lost a friend because of this incident...

I don't know exactly what happened.

Two weeks later, after Hong Tu had completely settled the orphans.

After leaving the orphanage, he walked back feeling carefree, pondering how to persuade Torregia to bring back some rare ingredients.

“…The meat last time was pretty good.” Hong Tu pondered, then suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Along with him, the alien opposite him also stopped.

"Ah, it's you!" The alien opposite him pointed at him in surprise. "Why are you here!"

Hong Tu raised an eyebrow: "Shouldn't I be asking you that?"

The guy across from me is someone I can barely call an acquaintance.

He had four red eyes, was silver-black overall, and was covered in a bone-like armor, with only a few patches of blue skin exposed outside the armor.

Judging from its appearance, this thing is a typical... evil alien outfit.

Okay, in fact, this guy isn't a good person either.

He is a Gabian named Abel, an assassin active in various universes.

That's right, Hong Tu got to know this guy because when he first came to this universe, he made money too quickly, and someone hired this guy to kill him.

Well, of course, it didn't work. To be precise, this guy didn't recognize Hong Tu at all in the first place. Instead, he stumbled upon Hong Tu by chance after getting lost.

At the time, Hong Tu concealed his identity, but he was too lazy to change his appearance, so he simply used a little trick to make himself unrecognizable.

He was happy, but the assassin who was causing him trouble suffered because he had no idea what the target looked like and could only rely on some features to lie in wait at fixed times.

Well, I don't know if Hong Tu was lucky or unlucky, but that day just happened to be when Hong Tu got tired of playing somewhere and was ready to go somewhere else...

As you can imagine, the hitman spent the whole day waiting in vain, until he angrily went back to try and reason with his employer.

But the employer didn't stay where he was waiting, so after all that trouble, the poor assassin, having found neither his target nor his employer, got lost in despair.

Then he met Hong Tu.

After Hong Tu kindly gave him directions, the assassin kindly offered Hong Tu a drink.

After a pleasant conversation, the hitman began to complain about his "business" not going well.

So, naturally, Hong Tu confessed her identity to him.

After a brief silence, the Cosmic Bar erupted into chaos in an instant.

This assassin clearly wouldn't give up on the job just because they had a pleasant conversation. Instead, after the initial shock, he decisively tried to "save" the deal.

Well, of course he couldn't do anything to Hong Tu; instead, he got beaten up by Hong Tu.

If the bar owner hadn't intervened and kicked them both out, the situation might have turned out the other way around...

After Toregia's arrival, Hongtu lost the will to continue fighting and left with Toregia.

As for the poor assassin, after being beaten unconscious, he was dumped in an alley and even had his valuables stolen by a cosmic pickpocket—well, except for the armor that was impossible to remove.

In summary, there is an old grudge between them.

So after a "friendly" exchange of acknowledgments, the assassin on the other side raised his arm without hesitation and fired a shot without uttering a single word.

Hong Tu tilted her head slightly, easily dodging the attack, and spoke first: "It's been so long since we last met, isn't it a bit 'enthusiastic' to greet each other like this?"

“I have something even more ‘enthusiastic’ to say.” The assassin suddenly started talking like a tap on a tidal wave, “After all, he’s an ‘old friend,’ and I’ve missed him terribly since we last met.”

Although he said that, the cannon muzzle on his arm guard never stopped firing.

Hong Tu dodged left and right, managing to avoid all the bullets.

"Ugh, really, don't move!" Abel complained first. "Let me take you down properly!"

With a harmless smile on her face, Hong Tu extended her index finger and thumb in a gun gesture, tapped her fingertips a few times, and several dark red light bullets flew out, attacking the assassin opposite her, forcing the guy to dodge first.

"Ah, really..." They were on a deserted road. It was a remote place, close to the river. There were withered yellow grasses on both sides, and hardly any people or buildings, so there was not much shelter.

Abel, lacking Hong Tu's speed, could only roll awkwardly on the ground to avoid Hong Tu's attack.

"Hey, don't fight back!" the glib-tongued assassin said defiantly, firing a few more shots at Hong Tu. "Just let me kill you!"

"Ha, a weakling like you dares to brag? You've probably forgotten the pain from last time." Hong Tu didn't stop talking either, he increased the output of the light bullets, "This time I'll turn you into a card."

"Card? What card? Ah, never mind, let's just take you down first!" Abel didn't think much about what Hong Tu meant; they just wanted to kill each other anyway.

"I never expected to encounter something like this after making a pact with a 'demon.' I'll take care of you before I take down that member of the Light Clan!"

"Hmm?" Hong Tu seemed to have heard something interesting?

Chapter 1377: The Two Bosses - A Detour

Chapter 1377: The Two Bosses - A Detour

Did he make a pact with the "demon" to kill an Ultraman of the Light Clan?

This description seems to be referring to a certain guy.

Hong Tu was so surprised that she even stopped what she was doing.

"An opening!" Abel quickly seized on his pause and fired several energy blasts at Hong Tu in a matter of minutes.

Hongtu didn't hide, nor did she need to.

A semi-transparent barrier of darkness suddenly appeared, easily blocking all the energy blasts.

"You cheated!" Abel pointed at Hongtu and shouted in condemnation, "Why are you wearing a shield?!"

Hong Tu chuckled: "Even if I stand still, you can't do anything to me."

"Ugh, what the hell is this thing?!" Abel scratched his head in frustration, unable to stop complaining, "It can't even be killed by a beam cannon."

He hadn't been able to take down Hong Tu with firearms before, and had even been soundly beaten up by the enemy while he was under fire. Under fire! Not defending, not dodging, just enduring it head-on!

Could this thing be some kind of monster disguised as an ordinary alien?! No, even monsters aren't this bizarre.

Yes, it's eerie.

Although he wasn't as experienced as his older brother, Abel believed that even his brother had never encountered such a bizarre guy!

They seem easy to get along with, but you can't really read their emotions. They are clearly very powerful, but they are completely oblivious to your provocations.

What on earth is this thing?!

Just as he was getting angry, he heard the strange "thing" opposite him suddenly speak: "Tregear sent you to kill Ultraman?"

“Torregia?” Abel was taken aback, not yet recognizing the name. “The person who hired me is a guy named Kirisaki.”

“Oh, that’s right, it’s him,” Hong Tu nodded. “He sent you to your death.”

"It's to kill an Ultraman of the Light Clan!" Abel tried to correct him.

"You can't kill him, so it's suicide." Hong Tu stated the facts in a calm tone.

But his words did not deter the assassin; instead, they made him even more indignant: "Ha, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me?"

Hong Tu gave him a strange look: "Any assassin with a brain wouldn't take a job killing an Ultraman of the Light Clan."

"You're the one who has no brains!" Abel retorted instinctively.

Hong Tu: "..." Is that the point?!

Abel, who was on the other side, did not want to get entangled with Hong Tu any longer. After being reminded by Hong Tu, he finally remembered that he still had a mission to complete.

"I need to take care of those two humans first, then I'll deal with that Ultraman."

Hong Tu blinked: "Humans? How come there are humans?"

Has Toregia gone so far as to go from despising humanity to spending exorbitant sums to buy human lives?

“Ah, I was discovered by two humans when I came to Earth last night,” Abel didn’t think much of it and directly explained the whole story. “As an assassin, my principle is to eliminate the target silently!”

So, "silent and stealthy" means eliminating all the witnesses? That certainly sounds "silent and stealthy."

Hong Tu looked at the assassin as if he were an idiot.

No, it's just watching a little idiot.

Abel didn't notice the meaning in Hong Tu's gaze. He waved his hand, walked around Hong Tu, and prepared to leave. The two "witnesses" he was looking for were not far away. He should hurry up and deal with those two humans and kill Ultraman as soon as possible.

As for Hong Tu... he'd better think of another way.

"I'm leaving now, see you later."

Hong Tu turned her head to look at his back, her fingertips trembling slightly, and the surging shadows beneath her feet eventually subsided.

However, he took out his phone and made a call.

"Ah, Merika, it's me. I've discovered an alien assassin. Yes, he said he wants to kill two humans. The location is..."

After hanging up the phone, Hong Tu pondered for a moment, eager to call the Foreign Affairs Unknown Section again, but in the end, she regretfully gave up.

But to his surprise, just as he put down his phone, Muneya Homare and Kudo Yuuki suddenly appeared in front of him. Kudo Yuuki rushed to Hong Tu as if he had seen a savior: "Mr. Hong, you just saw an alien, didn't you?! Where did he go?"

“Over there.” Hong Tu pointed in the direction Abel had left. “What are you doing here…”

But Kudo Yuuki didn't have time to explain; after thanking him, he quickly chased after him.
