Ultraman: It turns out this is the easy mode.

The Naga, who call themselves gods of the universe, always seemed ridiculously undeserving to Cui Ming—if they really had the power they boasted about, they should at least be able to make some prophecies, right? For example, they could have predicted that their planet would be smashed to pieces by the hammer of the King of Heroes, or they could have predicted the existence of a terrifying being like Gatanothor that could overthrow a planet.

In reality, the Naga not only failed to foresee their impending doom, but also foolishly crashed into Earth's defenses time and time again, resembling "brainless invaders."

Now, Cui Ming is facing a being even more unique than the Naga—at least in terms of "perceiving danger," the other party's ability is quite formidable.

“You can state what you have to say before I fire.” Cui Ming’s hand rested on the weapon at his waist, his eyes sharply fixed on the alien in front of him. The alien’s appearance changed every few seconds, sometimes appearing as a human, sometimes as a compound-eyed face resembling an insect, so eerie that it made people instinctively wary.

"Please don't worry, we mean no harm, sir." The multifaceted alien's voice was calm and even, devoid of emotion, yet its facial features continued to shift, as if adapting to Earth's environment. "We simply entered this world by accident and will leave soon, so please rest assured."

"..." Cui Ming didn't speak, but his fingers secretly tightened on the weapon's trigger, while he silently prepared to transform in his mind—he could clearly feel that the multifaceted alien in front of him possessed a considerable amount of energy. Although the other party's tone was calm, the excuse of "accidental intrusion" was too easy to fake, especially after experiencing the Pedan aliens' feigned cooperation while actually plotting to seize Earth's resources. Cui Ming maintained the highest level of vigilance towards any "suddenly appearing alien."

This guy is not simple. He's not simple at all.

"I am a multifaceted alien. My arrival here was an accident, and I will leave soon." Seemingly sensing Cui Ming's wariness, the multifaceted alien took the initiative to explain his identity, and his appearance temporarily stabilized into that of a human male, trying to reduce the other party's hostility. "In fact, I was also surprised to appear here. It may be due to the ability of a being called Bruton."

"So, you guys were also tricked by Bruton?" Cui Ming raised an eyebrow. He knew Bruton's spatial abilities very well, after all, Misato and Asuka were teleported here by that guy.

That guy often unintentionally disrupts space, teleporting creatures from other planets to Earth. It seems that the multifaceted aliens are also among the victims this time.

"Yes, but rest assured, I will leave here soon." The multifaceted alien's tone remained calm, but there was a hint of barely perceptible apprehension. "In fact, I feel fear. This world is terrifying—even though our civilization is a high-level existence, we are helpless when facing some things in this world. According to you, our numerical values ​​are unable to deal with the terrifying mechanisms."

He looked at Cui Ming with clear awe in his eyes: "Just like you now, if you were to transform, we would also be afraid."

Cui Ming stroked his chin, thoughtfully observing the multifaceted alien—this guy was quite frank, and judging from his words and actions, he seemed more like a purely rational being, making decisions based entirely on "risk assessment." Once he discovered environmental danger or that he was at a disadvantage, he would immediately choose to "evacuate," rather than stubbornly resisting like the Naga. Even so, Cui Ming didn't let his guard down. After all, there was the example of the Pedan aliens—those guys had also feigned "friendly cooperation," but secretly developed weapons targeting Earth. If it hadn't been discovered early, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"You say you'll leave immediately, how can you prove that?" Cui Ming's tone remained icy. "I need to see you activate the departure device and confirm that you haven't left any tracking devices or dangerous items behind."

"Okay, don't worry." The multifaceted alien immediately agreed, its appearance changing slightly due to its eagerness, sometimes appearing as an alien face with tentacles, and sometimes reverting to a human form. "I'm currently retrieving cosmic coordinates. Once I've determined my location, I'll immediately activate the space device and leave. I absolutely won't linger."

He looked around at his surroundings, his eyes filled with undisguised apprehension, and continued to speak to Cui Ming: “In fact, from the moment I stepped onto this planet, I have been enveloped by all sorts of fears—the ancient energy fluctuations emanating from the depths of the earth, the unknown energy fluctuations that occasionally flash across the sky, and the power that I just sensed from afar, a power that could easily tear space apart. This planet harbors too many ‘ancient and deadly’ beings, and all sorts of terrifying mechanisms that are completely beyond the comprehension of our civilization.”

At this point, the multifaceted alien's tone became more helpless and resigned: "Even if we master 'life printing,' a technology that can quickly replicate organisms and repair damage, we are completely helpless in the face of the terrifying destructive power of this planet—our technology can deal with conventional warfare, but it cannot stop those monsters that can easily overturn mountains and shatter the earth's crust, let alone fight against those mechanisms that 'cannot be cracked by numerical values.'"

He opened his hand, revealing a device shimmering faintly in his palm, his tone filled with bitterness: "In our original world, we were a top-tier advanced civilization, easily controlling the resources of the galaxy, and no one dared to provoke us. But in this world, our advanced civilization's power is a joke; even self-defense is a problem. The monsters here are simply beyond reason; they have no logic, only pure destructive desires. Our defense systems are no different from paper in front of them."

“So I really want to go home!” The multifaceted alien emphasized, his eyes filled with genuine longing. “I don’t want to stay here for even a second longer, or even a day longer, because we might face the danger of our entire team being wiped out. This universe is too dangerous, especially this planet. It’s not a place that a ‘conventional advanced civilization’ like ours can even set foot in.”

Looking at the multifaceted alien's candid and anxious demeanor, Cui Ming slowly released the weapon's trigger, but his vigilance remained. He could sense that the fear in the other's words was genuine; after all, even the Naga, who could create dinosaur monsters, dared not easily provoke Earth, so it was understandable that this multifaceted alien, accidentally teleported here by Bruton, would be afraid.

But he still said coldly, "I can give you time to confirm the coordinates, but during this time, you cannot leave my sight, nor can you activate any devices other than 'locating' and 'leaving'. If I discover any unusual behavior from you, you should know the consequences."

“Understood! I will fully cooperate!” The multifaceted alien nodded immediately, quickly lowering his head to operate the positioning device in his palm. Complex cosmic coordinates began to flash on the screen. “The positioning will be completed soon. In ten minutes at most, I can initiate a space jump to leave this place.” He was now only thinking about “getting home as soon as possible” and had no intention or courage to play any tricks on Cui Ming—after all, the human in front of him was terrifying just from his aura, not to mention that the other party could transform into an even more powerful being.
