Ultraman: It turns out this is the easy mode.

On Earth, in the command center of TPC headquarters, Director Sawai and Staff Officer Yoshioka were analyzing global security data on a holographic screen. Recently, signs of extraterrestrial activity had decreased, and they had hoped to usher in a short period of stability.

Just then, the emergency communicator suddenly rang, and Cui Ming's communication icon instantly appeared on the screen.

"Connect." Sawai raised his hand to signal, his tone calm.

The moment the call connected, Cui Ming's slightly relaxed voice came through: "Sawai, Yoshioka, this is Cui Ming. I brought you some good stuff this time."

Sawai and Yoshioka exchanged a glance, a hint of anticipation flashing in their eyes.

The "good stuff" that Cui Ming mentioned was often anything but simple.

Sure enough, the next second, Cui Ming added, "I'll be on Earth soon. Besides myself, I've also brought a bunch of Naga core technology data, all of which are practical materials that can be directly used for research."

"The Naga's core technology?!" Yoshioka couldn't help but raise his voice, his face full of surprise. "This is incredible! With this data, our technological research and development can avoid several years of detours, and our ability to deal with alien threats will be greatly enhanced!"

Sawai nodded slowly, his eyes filled with undisguised approval. As an active alien force in recent times, the Naga's technological level should not be underestimated. Obtaining their core data is indeed a major gain for Earth.

But the surprise didn't last two seconds before Yoshioka suddenly realized what was happening, his tone instantly turning helpless: "Wait! Old Cui, which alien race have you messed with this time?! Last time you destroyed the Shadow Clan's stronghold and came back with half a ship full of alien equipment, and this time you've brought back the Naga's core technology..."

Before he could finish speaking, he sighed softly, "Never mind, it's pointless to ask. Just do what makes you happy."

Sawai also raised his hand to wipe away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Old Cui... you really always manage to bring 'surprises' to people."

His tone conveyed both trust in Choi Myung's abilities and helplessness regarding Choi's unconventional ways of doing things.

Yoshioka, standing nearby, nodded in agreement and chimed in, "I think it's more like shock. But then again, we all know his fighting ability. As long as he's alright and managed to bring these things back alive, that's already a miracle. Oh well, as long as he's happy."

No one in TPC's upper echelons doubted Cui Ming's abilities. After all, he was capable of confronting alien monsters head-on and destroying alien strongholds single-handedly. With him around, many seemingly impossible missions could be accomplished.

However, just as the two accepted the fact that Choi Myung was "stirring things up" again, Choi Myung's next words in the communication completely stunned them.

"Oh, by the way, I also have a special 'ally' to introduce to you this time we're back—a group of highly intelligent Tyrannosaurus Rex."

"Hiss—" Sawai gasped, her eyes filled with disbelief, "A high-IQ Tyrannosaurus Rex?"

Yoshioka's eyes widened in shock. He instinctively leaned closer to the communicator to make sure he hadn't misheard: "What did you say? Tyrannosaurus Rex? And a highly intelligent one at that?!" This news was so shocking that it completely overturned everyone's perception. In everyone's mind, Tyrannosaurus Rex was a giant carnivorous dinosaur from ancient times that acted solely on instinct. How could it possibly be associated with "high intelligence"?
“That’s right. They are not only highly intelligent, but they also possess a lot of Naga technology. Some of the data this time was compiled with their help.” Cui Ming’s voice came again. “Moreover, they have the idea of ​​uniting with humans to fight against alien forces and monsters.”

"A coalition?" Sawai's eyes instantly turned serious, and his initial surprise gradually faded. "If this is true, then it is indeed a good thing. Earth needs more reliable allies now. If the dinosaurs can really stand on our side, it will be of great help in protecting Earth's safety."

But Yoshioka quickly realized the crucial issue, his brow furrowing: "That's true, but we must first determine their true motives. After all, they are a highly intelligent group we've never encountered before; we know nothing about them and can't easily trust them. If they're planning to use the guise of 'unity' to secretly do something, that would be a huge threat to Earth."

Sawai nodded in agreement, saying, "You're right, we can't be careless about this. I think we should wait for Cui Ming to return, get a detailed understanding of the situation from him, and then convene an emergency meeting with all TPC executives to discuss countermeasures together."

In fact, this matter is not that simple.

After all, no one knows what the real purpose of these suddenly appearing, highly intelligent dinosaurs is.

Is he genuinely seeking survival in alliance with humanity, or does he have ulterior motives? Everything will only become clear once Cui Ming returns to Earth with more detailed information.

The atmosphere in the command room instantly became heavy. The initial surprise was replaced by caution. Both of them knew that if this matter was not handled properly, it could bring a new crisis to Earth.

During the discussion, the TPC headquarters' early warning system alerted them that a group of unidentified flying objects was approaching the headquarters' designated parking area. After identification, it was confirmed that it was Cui Ming's Flying Sky One, as well as several Naga ships marked as "friendly".

Sawai and Yoshioka immediately got up and, with several core staff officers, rushed to the docking area to personally greet him.

Along the way, many TPC staff members heard about Choi Myung bringing back a "special ally" and curiously peered out to see what this mysterious ally looked like.

Soon, the blue engine flames of Flying Sky One streaked across the sky and landed steadily in the designated location of the docking area. Several Naga ships followed suit and docked in turn. The whole process was smooth and orderly.

The hatch opened, and Cui Ming stepped out first. His combat uniform was still clean and neat, but there was a hint of fatigue between his brows.

When the figure behind him appeared, the entire parking area fell into an eerie silence. All the onlookers stared in shock, their mouths slightly agape, and even their breathing subconsciously slowed down.

It was a massive Tyrannosaurus Rex, its body covered in thick scales even more robust than anyone had imagined, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble slightly.

What's most shocking isn't its size, but its attire—a huge, custom-made white lab coat completely covering its torso, with the collar neatly buttoned up; even more outrageous, above its eyes sits a pair of round, black-rimmed glasses, the lenses reflecting the light and exuding a strong "scholarly air."

"Holy crap..." someone in the crowd exclaimed, breaking the silence, "It really is a Tyrannosaurus Rex! And wearing a white lab coat and glasses?!" (End of Chapter)
