Chapter 65

After arriving at the location of the monster-sighting video, Emi got out of the car to investigate, while Qi Ming remained in the car, contemplating the behavior of Director Airan Cheng in "R/B".

This is a... patient with severe delusions.

He only sees the superficial imitation of Ultraman, but fails to see the core essence of Ultraman.

That is why, in the original series, he said this very classic line to the Minato brothers: "You have no resolve, you haven't experienced any hardships, yet just because you were chosen, you go around playing a game called Ultraman!"

In reality, he is the one playing a game, releasing monsters to destroy other people's homes and using others' suffering as stepping stones to become a hero.

In the original series, in order to monopolize the names of hero and Ultraman, this guy used various threats and inducements against the Minato brothers; if things continue like this, he will come looking for me sooner or later.

A potential enemy?

No, perhaps I can turn a disadvantage into an advantage and reverse the roles of attacker and defender.

After all, Director Airan Cheng subjectively wants to be a hero, but in his performance, he is just an irresponsible giant baby.

A bit like Marvel's Superior Iron Man, addicted to the thrill of being a hero, even if this honor and victory are forged by his own hands.

I can try to correct his distortion and let him use his good intentions in the right place.

But keeping an ace up my sleeve is still necessary; at the very least, I cannot tell him my identity, and I need to maintain a certain distance to avoid a backlash.

Qi Ming thought for a long time inside the car, and his furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

He had an idea.

Emi, who had returned, noticed that Qi Ming appeared relaxed during the subsequent investigation, and she couldn't help but feel relieved herself.

"Are you going to make contact with Director Airan Cheng?" Emi asked when the car drove to the foot of the Director Airan Tech building.

Qi Ming: "It's not the right time yet; I have to wait for a 'turning point'."

…………………………

Three days later, Oulongdao.

This is a small island formed by an underwater volcanic eruption; looking down from high altitude, one would find that this small island resembles a giant turtle.

Many years ago, two ancient turtle eggs buried deep underground were liberated after jumping out of the ground from a place with weaker pressure due to an earthquake.

After hatching, the two turtles grew up and became incomparably huge.

The residents of nearby islands called these two ancient turtles the "Turtle King" and "Turtle Queen".

They wandered in the quiet waters of Oulongdao, living in harmony with the nearby residents, minding their own business.

Recently, a Japanese man named Gao Si learned about this and organized a capture team, preparing to capture the giant turtles alive.

They seized the opportunity of the giant turtles' egg-laying time, waiting for the Turtle Queen to come ashore to lay eggs.

That night, the moonlight was bright, and the Turtle Queen dug a hole in the sand, laying eggs in great pain, shedding bloody tears from the agony.

Seeing that it was about time, Gao Si made a gesture, signaling the capture team to prepare to act.

He walked toward the Turtle Queen with his deputy and instructed: "Turtles are very docile while laying eggs; get as close as possible."

At this moment, the Turtle Queen let out a mournful cry, which stunned Gao Si's deputy.

Gao Si: "What's wrong?"

Deputy: "It is begging us to let it go."

Gao Si scolded angrily: "You bastard! We've been waiting for it for months! It's just a beast, shoot now!"

The deputy pulled the trigger, and a huge, sharp-tipped anesthetic dart shot out, piercing the Turtle Queen's neck.

Hit in a vital spot, the Turtle Queen immediately let out a wail, but it was too weak after giving birth to fight back.

It could only endure the intense pain to bury its eggs with sand, then struggled to escape into the sea.

"Turn on the lights!" Gao Si shouted, and the capture team aimed their powerful searchlights at the Turtle Queen's eyes.

Temporarily blinded by the strong light, the Turtle Queen became even more panicked, and at the same time, the anesthetic began to take effect, making it feel a wave of weakness.

Seeing this, Gao Si was overjoyed: "Cast the net, quickly!"

The other capture team members immediately followed suit; they were veterans in this line of work and naturally scoffed at the saying that "all things have spirits," thinking they were just beasts.

"Bang!" A sturdy net was fired, covering the Turtle Queen; the latter twitched in pain, but having just finished giving birth, it was incomparably weak and unable to break free.

"Splash!" The water surface was broken, and an even larger turtle appeared; this was the Turtle King!

Gao Si was not alarmed but delighted: "The Turtle King! Capture this guy while we're at it!"

Another huge anesthetic dart was fired, piercing the Turtle King's neck, and the latter also twitched in pain.

The capture team cast their nets again, but the Turtle King relied on its huge size and greater strength to forcibly break free, barely escaping a disaster.

The anesthetic took full effect; the Turtle Queen was unable to move, and the Turtle King gradually lost feeling in its limbs and body, unable to tear open the capture net of its mate.

As soon as dawn broke, the capture team dug out the eggs the Turtle Queen had just laid.

Because of the attack, the Turtle Queen used too much force while burying the eggs, causing one egg to break, but the other four were intact.

Gao Si was very satisfied with the harvest of this trip; he and the capture team boarded the chartered giant ship, dragging the Turtle Queen back to Japan.

"Cheers!" That night, Gao Si frequently raised his glass with the captain and the first mate.

The captain was curious and asked him what he intended to do by transporting such a large monster back to Japan.

Gao Si: "I plan to hold a monster exhibition; just by putting that guy on display, not to mention the Japanese, people from all over the world will come to visit. Then, after some training, it can even perform."

Captain: "I see, that way you could become billionaires."

Gao Si waved his hand modestly, but the look of pride on his face could not be concealed.

"I hope so, come, everyone drink to your heart's content, today is the happiest day!"

At this moment, his deputy brought over soup made from turtle eggs:

"Everyone, such game, you won't find it on any menu in the world; it's irreplaceable by anything."

"Come, everyone, enjoy!"

After the capture team and the crew finished drinking, they all felt refreshed and thought it was a supreme delicacy.

The Turtle Queen, being dragged at the stern of the ship, had red, glowing eyes; it saw all of this.

My unborn children were eaten by these humans!

It struggled violently with rage, causing chaos in the cabin, and everyone was terrified.

"How is this possible, has the anesthetic failed?"

"It should have been unable to move for three days!"

…………………………

"Captain, a freighter registered in Japan called the 'Fourth Sakura Maru' has been attacked by a giant sea turtle, located 6 kilometers southeast of Shenjindao."

On the Victory Victory Feiyan side, Emi received the news immediately.

"What!" Qi Ming quickly asked for clarification.

Oulongdao, Turtle King and Turtle Queen, egg-laying, captured by humans.

These are the giant turtle monsters Tortoise King and Tortoise Queen from the fourth episode "Giant Sea Turtle Monster Attacks Tokyo" and the fifth episode "Parent-Child Star, the Brightest Star" of "Ultraman Taro".

"A good opportunity; I can not only avoid the tragedy in the original series but also use this turning point to drive Director Airan Cheng; I must seize it," Qi Ming thought to himself.
