NO. 44: Difference? Abnormal

Purple, orange, and silver intertwined, resembling a mechanical body, a giant full of futuristic vibe.

The armor's pattern was painted with dim silver and black, gold and blue, and furthermore an obscure pattern covered the giant's entire body.

Just like the figures many people chased in their childhood, two giants tens of meters tall stood in front of the wanton monster.

Although their color schemes and appearances were not those of kind-hearted people, their stance blocking the monster and the opening moves as they stepped forward were enough to prove their position.

"Oh wow, that's Anqi-kun, right~"

The fully configured Apple computer's display had pixels clear enough, even giving the city's controller a supreme viewing experience with multiple angles.

Adding the free camera experience of moving the lens at will, it could become a feast for special effects fans, giant monster fighting enthusiasts, and similar groups.

Unfortunately, the audience sitting in front of this screen was the monster side's master.

She gazed at the purple giant on the screen with a very weary look.

Instead, the mysterious creature that should have been confined beside her sighed with his usual slightly frivolous tone, lamenting how long it had been since he'd seen the purple giant.

"Although his appearance hasn't changed much, he seems to be more than just the previous level, you know~ dududu……"

Before his sigh finished, the chains all over his body naturally tightened, and the shoulder plates connected to his black robe showed cracks unable to bear the load.

Faced with such obvious pain, Alexis Kailifu did not cry out in agony, merely letting out a pained sigh: 'Xiao Qian, is there really a need to be so violent?'

"Don't you think this situation is actually more interesting?"

In the midst of speaking, the cracks on his shoulder plates were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Interesting? Is that why you let her and him go?" The girl leaned back in her chair and glanced at him.

He didn't care about the other's seemingly small gesture-like instinctive reaction.

Because she knew that the mysterious alien named Alexis Kailifu possessed infinite life, and because that infinite life gave him infinite emptiness, he had become widely known as a person who seeks amusement for its own sake.

He once longed for the intense emotions that humans like Xintiao Qian embraced to fill himself.

At the same time, Xintiao Qian was also seeking a home, an understanding person, and thus became the final conversation between him and Gulite:

"So you reached out your demonic claw toward Xintiao Qian!"

"No, no, it's she who's craving me!"

Such a distorted mutual need didn't last long, after all Alexis is completely non-human.

His life has no limit, his journey never ends.

On the contrary, as a human, Xintiao Qian's inner darkness was drained by Alexis's conscious exploitation, eventually exhausted, leading her to a hollow end of self-destruction.

Not mentioning the later joint rescue by Gulite, Liuhua, Anqi and others, at least for the karmic bond between Alexis Kailifu and Xintiao Qian, his ending up like this could be considered poetic justice—if the other party truly is Xintiao Qian.

"Geez, one after another, they all come to interfere with me!"

The black-haired, red-eyed 'Xintiao Qian' glared at the Gulite Knight on the screen; her eyes indeed surged with the anger that girl once felt when her rule was shaken, and her motion to rise and take the monster from the display case was exactly the same as before.

But that girl from the past still needed his help to give the model, and the emotions residing within it, an actual giant form.

The so-called instantiation is precisely, in this world possessing a creator, the power to fully liberate the creations that the creator meticulously made and condensed with emotion.

That girl from the past had not yet mastered the means to truly turn emotion into power.

But the girl before us is different.

"You lot, go take care of that guy!"

As her palm brushed over those several identical sculptures, the red light emanating from within turned each sculpture into a row of silver-haired youths kneeling on one knee, like copies.

Anqi.

For Yalikesisi Kailifu, who has experienced everything, these four youths, identical in appearance, all bearing that androgynous look, in good condition and uninjured……

They are somewhat eyesore.

Especially when they are all obedient-looking, standing before Heixian, that troublesomeness will increase geometrically.

"Yes!"

A fourfold response rang out simultaneously; the four youths, not looking at each other, rushed straight to the room's exit, and immediately surged into the room's blinding red light half a minute later, adding four new figures to the battlefield on the screen.

Not even a moment was spent mourning the karmic-retribution monster beaten to death barehanded by Hei'an Telijia and the Gulite knight; the next moment, arriving at the battlefield was——

——The "Sleeping on Firewood and Tasting Gall" Monster F4!

However, before that, we still need to turn the camera toward the city center two minutes ago.

There, a torture of the monster is being staged.

——

As previously mentioned, the karmic-retribution monster Didabadan is a special monster specifically designed to counter light techniques.

What does that mean?

It means that effective damage must be dealt in close combat.

However, Didabadan can also emit beams from its chest organ; although its accuracy is poor, in close combat there is no need to worry about missing.

Such a design is excellent, completely a must-have for attacking the enemy——

——Either you let him wreak havoc, or you have to go up and take a hit.

So, facing such a monster born for close combat, what should the two armored giants who look like Ultramen but are hard to call Ultramen do?

These two will each pick up a serrated giant light wheel and a lover-of-ghosts warrior sword, and tell you:

What is called a guy flashing fangs while waving a heart of justice. jpg

In this battle, the monster Didabadan's combat moment consists only of the initial single beam.

And that beam was met by Hei'an Telijia's single slash wrapped in scarlet flames.

A perfect split in two.

Next came the Gulite knight, who raised the light wheel and sawed at the monster's face!

That scene was too brutal.

And that brutal scene directly declared that Dibadadan's battle had ended.

A battle where power and skill are completely overwhelming is very cruel; it's enough for just one side to act.

So, in a situation that could arouse some pity in many people and further suspicion that these two fearsome-looking giants might not actually be good, amidst the monster's slow slicing, the two giants personally told all viewers:

There is an insurmountable wall between bare-handed and armed combat.

Engaging 1v2 is even more an inadvisable impulsive act.

However, Dibadadan's sacrifice was not meaningless.

Just after it gave everyone a final lesson, letting everyone fully understand the importance of numerical advantage, the Persevering Monster F4 arrived.

Paired up, they flew swiftly on massive leg thrusters; one shot at high speed to the front and rear of Hei'an Tiga, simultaneously slashing with the right arm's long claw, while the other positioned itself at the Gulite Knight's 2 o'clock and 10 o'clock directions, forming an angle, and directly unleashed a converging light beam baptism.

However, to be frank, compared to the pressure of offensive-defensive shift brought by such numbers, it is actually their very appearance that surprises this side more.

«Mr. Anqi, do you still have four brothers? »

While dodging sideways, he deflected two long blades with a single slash; Hei'an Telijia, wielding the loveghost long blade, faced the two endure-hardship monsters whose prototypes were the ninja monster Xinuobila, and indeed bore somewhat the posture of a warrior facing a ninja ambush.

Meanwhile, in the distance he was facing, Gultie Qishi displayed astonishing agility, exhibiting dodging ability akin to gymnastic movements, dodging the light beam emissions of two endure-hardship monsters, and even had the leisure to retort:

«Of course not! I even suspect this is your trick! »

«Actually, you've mistaken me for someone else; in fact, before coming here, I had met a stranger named Xin Tiaoqi. »

«What—»

Gultie Qishi was stunned, and thus his movement stalled; he was immediately hit by several beams of light, and in the moment he flew backward amid the thick smoke, a high-speed approaching long blade gave chase.

Swish!

A samurai sword entwined with crimson flame was flung across, easily tearing through the air, soaring over several buildings, and pointing straight at the endure-hardship monster that had been running side by side.

Forcing them to separate abruptly.

Yet that long blade's momentum did not wane, still pointing at the astonished Gultie Qishi.

But before he could react and dodge, a pitch-black mist unfolded before him, engulfing that long blade and, at the same time, shooting upward diagonally from another black mist drawn by Aomo, pointing straight at the endure-hardship monster leaping to the left.

Meanwhile, the other endure-hardship monster, while dodging to the right, approached Gultie Qishi, preparing to fire a missile while swinging its arm blade, and was about to face a dragging crimson light beam—

——DarkZeperionBeam/Hei'an Zaipeliao light beam!

By completely anticipating the dodging trajectory and sealing off the road, it forced the endure-hardship monster, unable to brake suddenly, to plunge halfway into it with its body.

Nevertheless, even so, the monster was not destroyed in the special-effects-style explosion; instead, it remained in a rather miserable but still alive state, merging with three other high-speed approaching companions.

At the same time, Aomo waved his hand, causing the blood-stained samurai sword to fly back into his grasp.

«You really underestimated us; I truly hope they can keep this arrogance. »

Immediately he turned to the side, where Nate, though reluctant, had nonetheless jumped onto Hei'an Telijia's side amid the running and leaping, due to the circumstances:

«It's a pity it's hard; now isn't a convenient occasion to exchange information—do you have any suggestions advantageous to the battle situation? »

«If they really are me…» The purplish-red crystal eyes closely followed the figures preparing to renew their attack; Gultie Qishi, who deeply knew his own strength from his monster days, kept his nerves taut, «»They should also have a time limit on their activity at this evolutionary stage. »»

«What a coincidence, I have one too. »

As if to prove his words, the blue light on Hei'an Telijia's chest flashed timely, even accompanied by a clear sound effect.

«How can you have one?! » Nate froze; although he had also doubted like many human spectators, having been lectured by the opponent with the Heavenly Authority Punishment, he absolutely refused to acknowledge the possibility that the opponent was an Ultraman.

«Because the classmate of Neihai Jiang whom I possess has neither a promising physical nor mental condition. »

«…Then it's just a matter of who can't hold out first. »

In the midst of speaking, he retreated and leapt to dodge the first missile barrage; Gultie Qishi once again traced in his hand the purple light ring he had once used as a melee weapon: «»You can't turn back into that former monster, can you? »»

«»Add to his burden? That's hardly a good idea. «»

Similarly, while dodging sideways to avoid the missile, he then emitted dark red lightning with a tree-like extension from his whole body, detonating the incoming missile barrage; Aomo glanced at the timer on his chest, then immediately grasped his samurai sword.

«»Moreover, youngsters who admire Ultraman can't bear this grievance. «»

«»You still bother with this childish grievance! «»

«»Don't say that; this childish grievance might even be life's greatest treasure. «»

«»No matter what you say, they're coming! «»

«»Indeed, but isn't their condition a bit off? «»

With a single blade he deflected the sharp edge, a hand strike ensconced in scarlet light broke the opponent's wrist, then he smoothly moved into the starting pose for a tooth‑thrust creak; Hei'an Telijia's goat‑like golden pupils fixed on the surge of dark red current flaring across the endure‑hardship monster before him, and in his astonishment he swiftly retreated, widening the distance—at that instant he saw the opponent, in the very next second, erupt electric sparks all over its body.

The blue crystals on each of their foreheads furthermore flashed, reflecting red in harmony with the timer on his chest.

Gultie Qishi, facing the anomaly, immediately raised his arm, with light already gathering upon it.

«»No matter what you say, this is an opportunity! GRIDKNIGHTSTORM! «»
