Chapter 1159
High-ups: This guy has to die!
The American high-ranking official withdrew his foot from the ground, his chest heaving violently, his clenched fists turning white at the knuckles, his eyes filled with rage and bewilderment—he simply couldn't understand whether the Japanese high-ranking officials had been brainwashed by a donkey! How could they come up with such a stupid idea as capturing those three creatures for research!
Those three things, are they something you can just touch or spray around like that?! The reason they ordered the encirclement and suppression was because they all assumed that no matter how powerful those two monsters were, they were just ordinary carbon-based life forms, and that as long as they used enough missiles, they could blow them to pieces and completely eliminate the threat.
But it wasn't until all the missiles hit their targets and the smoke cleared that they were completely dumbfounded—those two monsters had absolutely nothing to do with carbon-based life forms! Their hard scales were impervious to blades and bullets; the missiles couldn't even leave a mark on them, it was a complete waste of effort, they couldn't break through their defenses at all!
What's even more deadly is that these two monsters can easily trigger tsunamis and tornadoes. Just now, they almost flooded Tokyo Bay just in self-defense. If they are really provoked, it is not impossible for them to trigger global tsunamis and tornadoes when they unleash their full power!
Holy crap! The whole Earth will be turned upside down, and humanity won't be able to survive!
The United States has always acted with impunity globally, relying on its advantageous geographical location with two oceans to the east and west, and no powerful enemies to the north and south. Its homeland is far from conflict, and even if war breaks out, it won't reach its doorstep. But now, with the emergence of something that is impervious to all their weapons, can easily trigger global disasters, and directly strike the American mainland, their geographical advantage has instantly become worthless!
Thinking of this, the anger in the heart of the American executive was instantly replaced by a cold killing intent. He slowly lowered his head, his gaze sweeping over the Japanese executive who was lying on the ground, still trembling, his eyes devoid of any warmth.
This is the kind of stupid guy who provoked the monster without even knowing what happened. Now he even dares to have the foolish idea of capturing the monster for research. If his idiotic idea really angers those three terrifying beings and plunges the United States into crisis, then it will be a huge loss.
It seems it's time to clean up this troublesome good-for-nothing. His fingertips tightened slightly, and he had already made up his mind. The ruthlessness in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Leaving aside the undercurrents and growing murderous intent at the higher levels, the entire world is currently trembling violently due to the anomalies in Tokyo Bay. This tremor stems not only from the disaster panic caused by the monsters' rampage, but also from the mysterious committee lurking in the shadows of the world, which is attempting to turn all of humanity into orange juice—SEELE.
SEELE existed quietly in every corner of the world long before the "Second Cataclysm," its influence reaching across the globe, permeating all industries, and even possessing the ability to interfere in UN decision-making; its influence is unfathomable. Unlike other organizations that operate openly, SEELE's senior members rarely show themselves, usually conveying instructions and controlling everything with cold voices. Its core members, along with the members of the Human Instrumentality Committee, total twelve, and the mastermind behind all this is Speaker Keel. As for the location of SEELE's headquarters, no one knows to this day, like a hidden ghost lurking in the shadows.
These individuals, who attempt to manipulate humanity's fate and implement the extreme Instrumentality Project, are precisely the targets that World Consciousness desperately sought from Cui Ming to deal with. Of course, World Consciousness's demands are clear: it doesn't want Cui Ming to easily eliminate SEELE, but rather hopes he will give them a severe beating—after all, these guys have caused chaos and disruption for years, enough to overturn the world. Only by making them pay a heavy price can all hidden threats be thoroughly deterred.
When Cui Ming first learned of this request, he wasn't really moved. What could he say? The world consciousness needed his help, and there was a reward to be had, so he simply helped. In his view, SEELE, this inhuman creature that tried to control everything, deserved to be beaten no matter how hard he hit it; no amount of brutality would be excessive.
Initially, Cui Ming intended to take a pragmatic approach, not wanting to waste time, and simply kill all the core members of SEELE to end the matter once and for all. However, the world consciousness offered to reward Cui Ming with extra money if he fulfilled its request and inflicted enough despair on SEELE, allowing them to personally experience the pain of their meticulously planned schemes shattering.
Upon hearing this, Cui Ming immediately had no objections—only a fool would pass up a chance to make money, especially when dealing with someone like SEELE. At that moment, only one thought remained in his mind: Brother! You really know your stuff!
At this moment, SEELE, lurking in the shadows, was indeed terrified. The images of the monster ravaging Tokyo Bay, the annihilation of the combined US and Japanese forces, and the burly, scarred, and ferocious Ultraman Jack—each scene was like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into the hearts of the SEELE members, causing their usually cold tones to reveal an undisguised panic for the first time.

In the secluded conference room, several cold voices rang out in a jumbled mess, devoid of their usual composure and sense of control, replaced only by barely concealed panic and confusion.
"What kind of creature is that?" A slightly hurried voice broke the silence first, his tone full of confusion and horror, clearly shocked by the enormous size and destructive power of Sigras and Simmons on the screen.
Another deep voice followed, trembling slightly: "A terrifying creature never seen before. There is no record of it in the database, and it far exceeds our understanding of giant creatures."
"Completely incomprehensible. The missiles are useless, their defenses are impenetrable, and they are not Apostles!" This statement was filled with disbelief and despair. Apostles were the only threat they had anticipated, but the monsters before them had shattered all their understanding.
"Damn it, this kind of creature isn't in the plan!" A furious voice rang out, filled with extreme anger and panic. The Human Instrumentality Project had been meticulously rehearsed countless times, but never before had such a variable occurred. "This unknown threat will completely disrupt our plans!"
Just as everyone was in chaos, a dignified yet obstinate voice rang out, drowning out all the disorderly discussions. It was Speaker Kiru's voice: "We must keep the Human Instrumentality Project going! Whether it's those monsters or that suddenly appearing red giant, they must be destroyed! Anything that hinders the project cannot be allowed to live!"
After the words were spoken, the conference room fell silent for a moment, but each subsequent voice carried a new, more obsessive ruthlessness—even in the face of unknown terror, they would never relinquish their obsession with controlling humanity's destiny, even if the price was becoming enemies with these terrifying creatures.
