Chapter 1049
Homgar!
With the amusement park incident settled, TPC staff handled the aftermath methodically. Cui Ming and Miyuki had long since disappeared down the street. Meanwhile, in a hidden, dark corner of the city, from a distorted light, the voice of a Kirieloid, tinged with barely concealed frustration and apprehension, rang out: "Damn Storm One..."
He secretly monitored the entire amusement park incident, from Cui Ming's decisive dispersal of the crowd to the fierce battle with Gadi, and finally, his cooperation with Ultraman Seven to completely destroy the monster. Every scene made the Kirieloids feel extremely uncomfortable. This man, codenamed "Storm One," was like a nail that appeared out of nowhere, repeatedly disrupting their plans and destroying their chosen "trial" site.
Originally, Gadi's actions at the amusement park were seen by the Kirieloids as an excellent test of human courage—the sudden appearance of fear in a place full of joy, to see how humans would choose in despair. However, the appearance of Cui Ming completely shattered the balance of this "trial." He cleared the crowd in an almost brutal manner, thwarting Gadi's hunting plan, and finally joined forces with Ultraman to defeat the monster.
“It’s him again…” The Kirieloid clenched their fists, their energy fluctuations becoming chaotic. They had been paying attention to Cui Ming for some time; this man was unpredictable, powerful, and ruthless, unlike any ordinary human warrior, and far more difficult to deal with than the TPC members.
However, despite their frustration, the Kirieloids quickly calmed down and suppressed their urge to immediately teach Cui Ming a lesson. They weren't planning on launching an attack anytime soon—after all, Ultraman Seven was still out there.
When Seven was mentioned, the Kirieloid's tone unconsciously became more solemn. Unlike other Ultramen who appear only occasionally, Seven was exceptionally dedicated to protecting humanity, possessed formidable strength, and acted without hesitation. In the past, their attempts to probe him had always been met with swift and powerful retaliation, leaving them no room to maneuver.
The Kirieloids were genuinely afraid of Seven. That red giant was like an insurmountable barrier, fiercely protecting Earth and preventing them from easily instigating large-scale unrest. If they rashly attacked now because of their targeting of Cui Ming, attracting Seven's attention, it would only be a losing proposition.
"Let him go for now, and suspend all surface trials as well." The Kirieloid finally made the decision, his voice cold and suppressed. "Let's lie low for now and wait for the right opportunity. We'll act again when we find Seven's weakness, or when Storm One reveals its vulnerability!"
The distorted light and shadow gradually subsided, and the presence of the Kirieloids was completely concealed in the darkness.
In the shadows, the Kirieloids did not cease their scheming. Since they could not directly confront Triumph and Seven for the time being, they changed their strategy—intending to unite with other existing monster creatures on Earth, using these native "threats" to deplete human strength, while also indirectly diverting the attention of Storm One and Seven.
In their conception, monsters and humans were inherently adversaries, so it was only natural for them to unite against a common goal. However, once they actually made contact, Kirieloid discovered that things were far more complicated than they had imagined—the personalities of many monsters on Earth were simply too outrageous.
Those monsters willing to achieve some kind of balance with humans, or even occasionally assisting them in fighting off external enemies, can be considered "normal" in character, at least having a basis for communication and cooperation. But those monsters that humans relentlessly hunt and beat to death are simply outrageous! These monsters are either extremely violent, with only destruction and slaughter in their eyes, completely incapable of communication, and will even actively attack the Kirieloids who try to contact them; or extremely paranoid, obsessed with their own territory or some kind of obsession, scoffing at any proposal to unite against humans, and going berserk at the slightest inconvenience; even worse, some have unpredictable personalities, showing a willingness to cooperate one second, and turning against them the next over the most trivial matter.
Several times, the Kirieloid envoys were nearly torn to shreds by these monsters, infuriating them to the point where they wanted to turn on them and wipe out these unruly creatures on the spot. If it weren't for the thought that keeping these guys around would continue to cause trouble for humanity, deplete TPC's fighting power, and keep Cui Ming and Seven busy, the Kirieloids would have already taken action and killed all these monsters with their wicked personalities.
Even with their repeated patience, one monster still pushed the Kirieloids to the brink of rampage—yes, Homgar also exists in this world!
When the Kirieloid envoys found Homga, they assumed that the monster's hostility towards humans would easily lead to cooperation. However, as soon as they explained their purpose, Homga responded with a series of illogical and ferocious attacks. This monster was not only extremely volatile but also utterly irrational, acting completely unpredictably. Its attacks were chaotic yet incredibly powerful, nearly destroying the Kirieloids' secret stronghold.
"Damn Homga!" From a dark corner, the Kirieloid's voice was filled with suppressed rage, the light and shadow around him distorting violently. "This idiot is impossible to communicate with! He's more troublesome than those monsters being chased by humans!"
The companion beside him said in a deep voice, "Indeed, Holmga is too aggressive and has no rationality. Keeping it around may not only fail to cause trouble for humans, but may even cause us trouble first."
The Kirieloid clenched his fists, struggling for a long time, but finally suppressed the urge to eliminate Homga immediately: "Wait a little longer... Even if it's uncontrollable, at least its destructive power can pose a threat to humanity. Letting it run rampant outside will at least divert some of humanity's attention. As for cooperation... let's temporarily abandon our efforts to win it over!"
The failure of the joint plan greatly frustrated the Kirieloids. What they had initially thought were "assistance" now seemed more like a group of unruly troublemakers. But what was done was done, and they could only grit their teeth and continue, carefully selecting monsters that could be won over while guarding against those with eccentric personalities suddenly turning against them—after all, rather than directly confronting Triumph and Seven, the plan to use others as pawns had to continue.
But damn Homga!!! You just wait!!
This isn't over yet!!!
Everyone now harbors immense hatred towards Homga!
The main problem is that Holmga is too...
I can't say.
Well, this thing should at least annoy humans and Seven, right? (End of Chapter)
