Ultraman, is this defense team up with you?

"No!" Ye Cheng shook his head.

"If I don't admit it, you'll prevent me from transforming, won't you?"

"Ha, is that what you care about?"

Carmilla had sensed it from the beginning; Ye Cheng seemed to have developed a hostility towards her.

It's confirmed now.

The crux of the problem lies in his own coercion into preventing the other party from transforming, which means... his coercion disregarded the greater goodwill of protecting the Earth, thus lowering his favorability score.

This was not what Carmilla wanted to see, and she explained helplessly:

"Whether you believe it or not, even if you don't admit it, I won't really force you to travel on the same plane as me."

Ultimately, for Carmira, a dark giant, whether Ye Cheng admits it or not, it doesn't change the fact that she already knows his true identity.

Even if Ye Cheng vehemently denies it, she will pretend nothing happened afterward.

"I believe you, of course I believe you!"

Ye Cheng was counting on Carmilla to keep it a secret for him, so how could he possibly want to offend her?

"But my intuition tells me that you are just trying to please me and hoping that I will keep this a secret for you."

"So what?" Ye Cheng did not deny it.

"Sigh..." Carmilla sighed.

Making this wrong step might make recruiting even more difficult, but...

Regardless of Ye Cheng's thoughts, she still had to express her opinion.

"I don't really care what you think of me. Time will tell. Besides, do you think I would let monsters destroy the Earth?"

When eyes meet, it's said that the eyes are the windows to the soul.

What Ye Cheng saw in Carmilla's eyes was pure sincerity.

"I believe you."

Upon hearing this, Carmilla smiled with genuine relief. "Then I'll keep it a secret for you."

"Then remember to cover for me from now on."

After reaching an agreement, Ye Cheng and Carmilla said goodbye and walked out of the room.

Watching Ye Cheng's figure disappear,

Carmilla's smile never left her face as she recalled her confrontation with Ye Cheng.

With her fingers interlaced, the beautiful mature woman stretched her fair and smooth arm over her head and yawned, her luscious red lips parted into an "O" shape as she exhaled a soft breath.

"This seems like a pretty good development~"

but……

"Who is the guy who stole the monsters these past few times?"

Carmilla was stumped when she thought of Ye Cheng and Jugglus Juggler in their monster forms; in fact, from her perspective, they were the same person.

……

at the same time,

After Ye Cheng left the room, he yawned, almost bumping into a female employee coming out of the opposite room.

Back in his room, Ye Cheng quickly washed up and then headed to the command center.

Along the way, Ye Cheng also encountered Kirisaki.

"Morning!"

"Ye Cheng? You've come at the right time. Come with me for a moment."

With nothing else to do, Ye Cheng was curious about why Kirisaki had called him back, so he simply followed in her footsteps.

Ye Cheng and Kirisaki arrived at a laboratory.

Upon entering the room, Ye Cheng began to examine the furnishings with great interest.

The walls are all made of alloy, and the room is about 60 square meters. This 60-square-meter space is almost filled with all kinds of high-tech equipment, but there are no cameras, which are the most common in other areas.

Kirisaki glanced at where Ye Cheng's gaze was falling and immediately understood.

"It's normal for a military location to have no cameras. Also, could you hand over your transformation device so I can take a look?"

Ye Cheng: Holy crap! Another box!!!

He had just asked Carmilla to keep his identity a secret, but then his identity was exposed.

Where did the Victory Team recruit such a group of box-related experts?

If this trend of exposure continues, he might not need to hide his identity anymore tomorrow, and could openly transform under the watchful eyes and even with the help of his teammates.

Seeing Ye Cheng remain silent, Kirisaki knew how shocking his words were, and immediately gave an apologetic smile.

He held up the tablet and showed the footage to Ye Cheng.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to find out your identity. I just accidentally saw it yesterday when I was deciphering the Flying Swallow No. 1 black box after upgrading the conventional firepower."

Judging from the clarity, it's almost like 360p; it's really lucky that they were able to capture his transformation process.

"Don't worry, this is the only backup of this video."

While reassuring Ye Cheng, Kirisaki deleted the video right in front of him.

"Can you trust me now? Maybe I can give you a surprise."

As Kirisaki spoke, his smile was genuine.

Chapter 19 TPC's Fighting Master

"A surprise? Just don't ruin it."

While talking to Kirisaki, Ye Cheng silently consulted the AI ​​of the Pokédex in his mind.

Knowing that the encyclopedia would automatically repair itself if damaged, and that it could be returned to its rightful owner simply by reciting the word "return" from a distance, Ye Cheng was now completely at ease.

"Remember to keep it a secret."

After giving his instructions and receiving a serious guarantee from Kirisaki, Ye Cheng didn't delay.

He unzipped his shirt, took out the Spark Lens, and simply handed it to Kirisaki.

Given Kirisaki's genius, Ye Cheng was genuinely curious about what the surprise he was referring to would be.

Is there anything else you need me to do?

"That's all. You can leave now. I'll let you know as soon as I have any research findings."

"Okay, good luck!"

After watching Ye Cheng's figure disappear, Kirisaki once again appeared deep in thought.

He has now found out who Ultraman Tiga is.

However, the person behind the fusion monster still left Tregear completely baffled.

To be able to successfully fuse two monsters in such a short time and make them so powerful is something that ordinary fusion techniques cannot achieve.

"Who is the one?"

……

After parting ways with Kirisaki, Ye Cheng went straight to the command room.

As soon as I entered the room, I was greeted by Ultraman Tiga's battle roar. Looking up, I saw the large screen in the command room playing footage of Tiga's appearance and brutal beating of Golza.

Ye Cheng: "..."

I have a bad feeling. Could it be...?

"Ye Cheng? You've come at the right time! We're analyzing Ultraman Tiga's video, why don't you come and take a look?"

As he spoke, Jugglus casually patted the stool next to him.

Thankfully, Ye Cheng breathed a sigh of relief; this time it wasn't a box.

"After taking a look, I found that Tiga's combat skills are not actually that outstanding. He won this battle almost entirely because of numerical superiority."

Jugglus Juggler had Hylotia switch the camera to the scene where Tiga switched forms to take the punch head-on.

"Look here! Although there is an element of confidence that the power form can overwhelm the enemy, this almost defenseless move can still easily give the enemy an opportunity in actual combat."

"For example, here..."

"And most importantly, while the Power Type enhances strength, its speed is significantly reduced. This proves that the Power Type is not omnipotent. Of course, this isn't important; we're just reflecting on what we can improve and learn from Tiga's recordings..."

After an emergency lesson, Ye Cheng realized that he had made many inexperienced mistakes in just one battle.

"If we encounter an enemy of human size in the future, we must not be so arrogant."

Ye Cheng and Helotia both nodded in agreement.

“By the way, we agreed yesterday to help you improve your physique and martial arts skills. There are no enemies around right now, let’s go! I’ll take you to practice,” Jugglus Juggler suggested.

"Huh? Now?" Ye Cheng was speechless. He did indeed need to improve his close combat skills.

After all, the Kirieloids will be arriving soon, and they might already be hiding somewhere. In the future, an enhanced version of Kirieloid will be released, making it imperative to improve their melee capabilities!

"But isn't this during working hours?"

"Yes, enhancing combat effectiveness is part of our job."

Jugglus laughed.

With Carmilla and Ishibori possessing advanced piloting skills, and Kirisaki leading scientific research, are you, an Ultraman, neglecting your duties by not improving your personal abilities?

"Don't worry, there are Hellfire team members in the command center, so there won't be any problems. You can contact us anytime if there are any issues. And most importantly, you need these even more when you're going on field missions."

"That's right, leave it to me."

Herodia smiled sweetly, raised her hand and made an OK sign, secretly hoping the two would leave quickly so as not to delay her progress.

"Ok."

……

Does TPC have a dedicated area for PvP battles?

"Yes, and many units also have field missions, requiring personnel to have strong close-combat firefighting capabilities."

Follow Jugglus Juggler to the battle area.

Through the question-and-answer session, Ye Cheng basically knew what kind of place they were going to.

Simply put, it's a mixed training ground for people from all departments.

Along the way, the two encountered many people wearing various uniforms.

These people have a very simple goal: to fight!

I entered a room with gleaming wooden floors.

Everywhere you look, you see frontline personnel wearing tactical vests or pure white training uniforms.

Glancing at the thronged crowd out of the corner of his eye, Jugglus raised an eyebrow and quickly patted his head.

"Oh, right!"

Jugglus tilted his head slightly and whispered in his ear, giving him some instructions.

"You might run into a little trouble later."

After leaving behind this riddle, he looked like he was ready to watch a good show, leaving Ye Cheng puzzled.
