Stop right now—it’s just a cicada!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Xingtuan, in the driver’s seat of the Sherlock car, stared at Zhengyi sitting in the wheelchair blocking their path, utterly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Yuan stepped out: “Child, what are you saying? How could such a huge monster be a cicada?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhengyi spread his arms, refusing to let the Charlotte car pass to attack the cicada monster: “It has six legs, four wings, and those eyes—it’s definitely a cicada!

Besides, it’s already destroying things; we must stop it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhengyi watched Feiyan One and Feiyan Two pouring fire onto the cicada monster, sweat pouring down his face: “It’s all your fault—it’s only fighting back! Stop!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop? Why don’t you ask the monster to stop? Is it because the monster isn’t as easy to reason with as the captain?” Qi Ming’s voice came from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Drum car pulled up beside the Charlotte car; Qi Ming and Karimira stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Zhengyi, desperately blocking their path, and thought: So here he is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the episode “The Sinking of New Tokyo City,” the child had left the deepest impression on Qi Ming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nasty, foolish, beyond description.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like extreme cat and dog lovers who value pets over human lives, Zhengyi, obsessed with cicadas to the point of madness, saw cicadas as the only important thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original series, the cicada monster destroyed his home—but he didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the cicada monster burned down buildings and terrorized residents, he acted as if he saw nothing; the moment they attacked the cicada, he went wild, running around causing chaos…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most absurdly, after his tantrum, the Taro Team agreed with him and chose not to kill the monster—ultimately, Kotaro transformed into Taro merely drove it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The innocent Bug Tooth Monster [Shelta], tormented by Taro Team’s underwater rockets, suffered tooth pain; after Kotaro failed to pull its tooth, the agony drove it into a rampage—yet the blame lay entirely with humans, and it was still destroyed by Kotaro’s transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, this cicada monster, spared because of a brat’s plea, could survive even after deliberately destroying a city… Comparing the two, the Taro Team and Taro were truly hard to judge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Qi Ming had no intention of coddling this brat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll test the upgraded Battle Device—this thing is yours.” Qi Ming looked at Karimira.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem. Even if you didn’t say it, I wouldn’t let this idiot live—it’s annoying me.” Karimira pulled out the brass-tipped leather belt from Qi Ming’s pants again and sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>",974,"2026-06-19T16:40:34.912Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","46a8dfcc125df9985fa0963b0f1f79a90f9853a72c66087bbfa8fbcf7ffb5165","ultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-chapter-538","ultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-chapter-536",547,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fultraman-arbitrary-key-dawn-cover.jpg"]
