Chapter 1051
Unite!
Without any hesitation, the Kirieloids chose to ignore it. Not only were they not swayed by the demon's words, but they also ordered the area where they had contact with it sealed off to prevent this annoying creature from interfering with their plans again. In their view, Homga, a fool who only knew how to reproduce through self-destruction, was not worth cooperating with. Rather than getting entangled with it, they would focus on selecting other monsters that could truly be utilized.
Completely ignored, the vengeful spirit circled for a long time. Seeing that no one took the bait, it could only slink back to the edge of the other dimension to relay the message to Homga. Upon learning that its plan had failed, Homga's body temperature instantly soared, clearly indicating extreme frustration—even the Kirieloids couldn't be fooled, so was this plan for the other dimension also going to fail? It looked towards Earth, its eyes filled with apprehension and resentment, yet it dared not actually turn back to provoke Cui Ming and Ultraman, and could only pace anxiously at the edge of the other dimension.
The extradimensional plot was completely thwarted. Even the Kirieloids couldn't be fooled by the treacherous demons, let alone other highly vigilant extradimensional races. Homgar paced anxiously on the edge of the extradimensional realm for a long time, its body temperature threatening to spiral out of control several times. In the end, it had to face reality—it was powerless to forcibly conquer the extradimensional realm, and it dared not recklessly self-destruct in this unfamiliar area. If it attracted powerful beings from the extradimensional realm, it would only die even faster.
With nowhere else to turn, Homga had no choice but to return to Earth in frustration. It knew that Earth had ruthless characters like Cui Ming, Seven, and Tiga who could easily take its life, but it had nowhere else to go. Filled with resentment and apprehension, this scorching monster traversed the dimensional rift and landed again in a remote mountainous region of Earth, attempting to temporarily conceal its presence and plan its next move.
But Homga never expected that the moment it set foot on Earth, it would be targeted by a pair of sharp eyes—Cui Ming. Since the Gadi incident, Cui Ming had never relaxed his search for monsters around the world, especially after learning that Homga also existed in this world, which made it his highest priority target. The multiple energy monitoring points he had set up detected the unique high-temperature energy reaction when Homga passed through the dimensional rift.
“It’s the energy fluctuations of Homga.” Cui Ming stared at the red dot on the monitoring screen, his eyes instantly turning cold, his fingertips already touching his weapon backpack. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately dialed the communication at TPC headquarters, directly connecting to Director Sawai’s office, his tone grave yet firm: “Sawai, Homga’s presence has been detected, the coordinates have been sent to your terminal. This thing must be eliminated immediately; we cannot give it any chance to accumulate heat energy and prepare for self-destruction.”
Director Sawai's expression instantly turned serious upon seeing the coordinates and the accompanying Holmga information.
Although he consistently advocated resolving crises peacefully, he was already familiar with the existence of the Holmga—creatures with whom peaceful coexistence was impossible. Upon hearing the name "Holmga," Megumi's previously gentle expression darkened, and before Sawai could speak, she declared, "I support Cui's decision; we must act immediately."
As a staunch pacifist, Megumi Kijima was never inclined to kill any life easily, but faced with Holmga, she didn't hesitate for a moment. This thing was disgusting; its genes were etched with the instinct for plunder and destruction, making peaceful coexistence impossible. Its so-called reproduction came at the cost of destroying an area and taking away all life; its very existence was a threat to all life around it, endlessly plundering resources and creating disasters.
“Captain Ju is right.” Director Sawai nodded and immediately issued instructions into the communicator, “Approve Operation Cui Ming, authorize the deployment of Victory Team fighters for support, and make sure to completely eliminate Homga before it causes further damage!”
"Received." Cui Ming hung up the communication, his eyes already blazing with murderous intent.
He knew all too well the consequences of letting Homga exist; the lesson from the last time in the Ultra Universe was profound enough. This time, he would not give this overpowered monster any chance. Grabbing his backpack, Cui Ming strode towards the helipad, contacting Dan Moroboshi at the same time: "Dan-senpai, Homga has appeared. Prepare for action." On the other end of the communication, Dan Moroboshi's voice was equally cold: "Understood. I'm heading to the target area right away."
In the desolate mountains, Homga was still trying to conceal its presence, completely unaware that the shadow of death had quietly descended upon it. It didn't know that this time, not only was there the formidable Cui Ming, who had emerged from the cycle of reincarnation, but also Ultraman Seven and the support of the GUTS team—a sure-fire, decisive battle awaited it.
Homga has become so disgusting that it's considered an enemy of the entire biosphere.
Even when there are territorial conflicts, most normal organisms will follow basic survival rules. However, Homga does the complete opposite. It is a typical freeloader. From birth to death, all its needs are met by plundering. In particular, when it comes to reproducing, it is as if "selfishness" is engraved in its genes.
The immense energy it needs to nurture its offspring is never accumulated on its own; it relies entirely on plundering all life and resources in its vicinity. Whether it's the energy of other monsters, the energy of human cities, or the bioenergy of nature, anything it targets will be forcibly devoured. Even more terrifying is that this plundering is extinct. To create an absolutely safe territory for its offspring, it will deliberately trigger a high-temperature self-destruction within its body, completely destroying everything within a radius of several kilometers. The scorched earth, devoid of any vegetation, is its "greeting gift" to its offspring.
No creature would want to accept a being that would even betray its own kind. Any creature with a modicum of territorial awareness and the ability to protect its environment would fight Homga to the death if it encountered it—after all, no one wants their home to become a "sacrifice" for its reproduction, and no one wants its hard-earned resources to be stolen by it without any effort.
For this reason, when Cui Ming confirmed Homga's return to Earth, there was no objection within TPC. Even Izumi Megumi, who had always advocated for peace, firmly supported the immediate execution.
“There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence with this thing. Keeping it around is a threat to all life.” Megumi’s tone was full of rejection. “It must be dealt with before it accumulates enough heat to explode. It must not be allowed to get close to any human settlements.”
Director Sawai immediately approved the operation, authorizing Cui Ming to utilize all available support forces from the GUTS team. Meanwhile, Cui Ming had already prepared his weapons and contacted Dan Moroboshi—both were aware of Homga's danger and understood that the only way to deal with it was to use the most decisive and swift method, giving it no chance to cause trouble.
