Ultraman: It turns out this is the easy mode.

That day, locked in a dark room in the mountains, I recalled the fear of being dominated by aliens again—this familiar sense of despair was exactly the same as when I was abducted by alien creatures last time!
Bad news: News spread quickly throughout the base that the mountain had been attacked by aliens yet again. When people heard this news, they weren't even that surprised anymore, as if it had become a "special trait" of the mountain's crew.

Good news: Intelligence has confirmed that the alien who attacked him was female. One team member even tried to reassure everyone with this news: "At least... this time it wasn't a male alien targeting the mountains?"

Bad news: The problem is, this female alien is that old hag from the Moon People! Just thinking about that wrinkled old woman with sticky eyes and a creepy laugh sends chills down everyone's spine. It would be better to have a normal male alien!
Even worse news: More than half an hour has passed since he was dragged into the small dark room in the mountains, and he still hasn't come out! Occasionally, a few muffled shouts and the old woman's low laughter could be heard from inside the dark room, making the team members outside extremely anxious, but they dared not rush in to disturb him—who knew what that drunken old hag might do.

Cui Ming stood outside the door with a frown, pondering whether he should just break down the door and put an end to this farce.

"Oh, Maya, my condolences." Cui Ming looked at Maya, who was sobbing uncontrollably, and didn't know how to comfort her. He could only pat her shoulder and sigh.

"Waaah, Vice Captain, why is my family in the mountains so unlucky!" Maya wiped away her tears, her voice full of grievance. "Last time he was captured by aliens and used as an experimental subject, and this time he was cornered in a dark room by that old hag. What did he do wrong?!" Maya called Vice Captain Cui Ming because Cui Ming's position when he served in the TAK team was vice captain, and this title has been used ever since.

At that moment, Beidou rushed over and, seeing the gloomy atmosphere at the base, immediately asked, "What's going on?! Old Cui, what happened? I just heard a commotion over here." He had just returned from a patrol mission and didn't know what had happened.

"Sigh," Cui Ming sighed, a hint of helplessness on his face.

Cui Ming then explained the situation to Bei Dou: "It's that Ruyue Starman I caught this morning. He got drunk and ran away. Not only did he not get far, but he also cornered someone in a small dark room in the mountains. That alien is probably still inside, harassing the mountain people, shouting something like 'Handsome guy, drink with me.' We're trying to figure out how to get in and rescue him." He pointed to the tightly closed door of the small dark room, where faint voices could still be heard.

Beidou's eyes widened upon hearing this: "Is that so? Is everything alright in the mountains now? Should I just kick the door down?" He rolled up his sleeves, looking ready to take action at any moment.

But Beidou didn't actually act immediately. He stood there, pursing his lips tightly, trying hard to keep his face from laughing out loud. In his heart, however, he was frantically apologizing: I'm sorry, Yamanaka! I really didn't want to laugh! But this "old hag drunkenly blocking a handsome young man" plot was just too much for him to bear! His shoulders were trembling slightly, and he could only turn his head and pretend to look at the scenery to hide his embarrassment.

Cui Ming saw through Bei Dou's situation at a glance, rolled his eyes helplessly, and pulled him aside: "Alright, Bei Dou, stop causing trouble. Our priority now is to ensure safety in the mountains and prevent him from getting into any trouble in there."

As Cui Ming spoke, he picked up a shotgun from the equipment rack and examined it; the gun's body gleamed with a cold, hard sheen. "To be honest, anything can happen these days. An alien going on a drunken rampage chasing after the team members—it's getting weirder and weirder," he sighed, his tone full of helplessness at this absurd situation.

Then Cui Ming began to seriously deploy the operation: "Attention all units, prepare for the rescue operation. Remember to move gently and don't agitate the Ruyue Star people inside. Also, taking photos or videos is strictly prohibited throughout the entire process. Absolutely no pictures can be leaked! Otherwise, the people in the mountains will never be able to show their faces again."

"Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!" The surrounding team members immediately stood at attention, their expressions turning serious. They grabbed their equipment and prepared to charge into the mountains to rescue the inhabitants at Cui's command. Boom!
With a powerful kick, Cui Ming flung open the door to the small, dark room, the door slamming against the wall with a deafening crash. However, the anticipated tense standoff didn't materialize. Instead, the team members at the front screamed in unison, "Ouch!!! My eyes!!!"

Inside the house, the old hag Ruyue had somehow taken off her coat, revealing a gaudy outfit underneath. She was reaching out with her arms outstretched to hug Shanzhong, who was huddled in the corner, her face flushed from drinking and sporting a strange smile. The scene was simply too much to bear!

They must have been poisoned in the mountains!

The team members covered their eyes, some even instinctively taking two steps back, clearly shocked by the sudden visual impact.

Only Cui Ming, with his iron will, remained unaffected. He frowned, picked up his shotgun, and walked into the house, expressionless as he looked at the chaotic scene before him: "Ruyue Starman, release him immediately!"

Startled by the sound of the door being kicked, the old hag turned around and glared at Cui Ming. Instead of letting go, she hugged Shan Zhong even tighter: "Don't come any closer! This is my handsome little guy!" Shan Zhong struggled in her arms like a fish out of water, his face filled with despair.

Cui Ming took a deep breath, feeling that he had experienced more outrageous things today than in the past month combined: "Looks like I have to give you a wake-up call."

Then, Cui Ming slightly stretched his neck, making a soft "click" sound, and his eyes instantly turned sharp. He swung his shotgun, the butt whistling as it slammed down on the Moon-like alien!

"Awooo—!" Before the Moon Starman could react, he was struck squarely in the chest by the butt of the gun, and his whole body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing and smashing through several walls, with brick and stone fragments flying everywhere.

Without pausing, Cui Ming strode after him, unleashing a rapid and brutal beating on the fallen Ruyue alien! Gun butts and fists followed in quick succession, each strike carrying immense force, causing the Ruyue alien to scream in agony, rolling on the ground and begging for mercy: "Stop! I was wrong! I'll never do it again!"

The surrounding team members were dumbfounded. The scene that had just been so shocking had instantly turned into a one-sided domination. Shan Zhong, who was huddled in the corner, was also stunned. Looking at Cui Ming's imposing presence, like a tiger descending the mountain, he suddenly felt that his fear just now seemed a bit unnecessary.

Cui Ming showed no mercy, beating the Moon Starman until he was dizzy and unable to get up before stopping and saying, "Wouldn't it have been easier if you had done this earlier? Why did you have to force me to take action?" He shook his arm, which was a little numb from the beating, before turning to look at Shan Zhong, who was still in a daze. "What are you all standing there for? Come over and help cover Shan Zhong with some clothes! And don't let any photos leak out!"

"Yes!" (End of this chapter)
