Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 629 Urban Legend, Extinction of Kirieloid

Hikono Town.

The radio station, as usual, was telling boring stories.

Late at night, a buckwheat noodle cart with red lanterns was parked at an intersection. The stall owner, an old man with a small mustache wearing a white smock, wiped his hands, opened the pot lid, and let the aroma of buckwheat food spread through the street, waiting for the next prey to take the bait.

"call out!"

There was a quick reaction outside, but when the old man peeked out, he only saw a few afterimages flash by.

"Ghosts? They seem to be those madmen from the Kirieloid tribe."

As a yokai named Obik who had lived in one place for many years, the old man had only heard about the Kirielod people from other yokai.

A terrifying group of guys in the world of monsters.

These guys are said to be gods of the earth and have secretly plotted to control humanity. Many monsters fled to Hikono Town to escape them.

"What's going on now?"

The old man stared blankly at the Kirieloid people, who seemed to be fleeing for their lives, their bodies contorted in a daze. Just as he was pondering this, a human figure slowly walked around the corner. Without stopping in front of the stall, the human figure stretched out his fingers in the direction the Kirieloid people had fled.

"call--!"

Several flames burst open in the night, carried by the wind, but even the lingering scent made the old man tremble with fear.

The Kirieloids are being hunted down.

"The weather is going to change!"

At the same time, on the other side of the city.

The newly formed alliance teams, who suffered a setback in the fog incident, have reunited in the port area.

"That unicorn guy is dead, utterly and completely dead, even his main body outside the instance was killed!"

Several team members turned to the silent, squinting young man in a panic.

"Captain, what's going on? That's not what we said at the beginning!"

"Wasn't it supposed to be treated as a game, so it wouldn't affect this world?"

"I have already reported this matter to General Mefilas, but due to the different time flow, we can only rely on ourselves now."

The squinting young man surveyed his subordinates in a deep voice.

The experimental subjects, born from the combination of their own genes and human genes, along with the second-generation ultimate armor, were originally thought to be able to conquer the world. However, they suffered casualties before even seeing a single A-class monster, and morale began to crumble.

The simultaneous killing of both the experimental subject and the original entity, who was not in the instance, indicates either a problem with the Knights or a major issue with the instance itself.

"I want to quit!"

One of the team members also thought of the key point.

He believed the problem was more likely with the game than with the Cavaliers.

"I'm a C-rank, it's such a waste for a D-rank test subject to die in a dungeon, they just assign low-ranking missions like this..."

"Don't forget the experimental subjects who were wiped out in the Nexus dungeon," the squinting youth said, locking onto the team member. "We only have one option now: escape? Do you think going back like this will save your lives? General Mefilas doesn't like guys who give up halfway."

"But……"

"As long as you don't die in the dungeon, it'll be fine, right?"

After exchanging glances with his teammates, the squinting young man looked up at the faint, enormous phantom of an angel in the sky.

As a spiritual being, he was very envious of this thing.

But something happened, and the angelic phantom that was rapidly condensing suddenly began to collapse, its A-grade energy dissipating in an instant.

It's a truly dangerous and unpredictable dungeon world.

"I won't die in a place like this, absolutely not."

"Bang--!"

That night, unusual explosions were heard in many parts of Tokyo, and urban legends about the Grim Reaper reaping souls began to spread.

Xia Chuan, as the main figure in the storm, finally found the last group of Kirieloids.

He hesitated slightly, considering the role these guys would play in Daigo's future achievements and the brilliance of Tiga, but thinking that the current Tiga arc had deviated from the storyline he knew, he ultimately did not hold back.

Especially when these guys were preparing to retaliate against him.

"Lypia!"

A Kirieloid with a gray-robed physical form abandoned his escape and glared furiously at Xia Chuan, who was approaching the intersection.

"You are incredibly arrogant! Prepare to face the judgment of the god Kirieloid! You are absolutely unforgivable, for daring to..."

"call!"

Xia Chuan raised his arm again.

The streets and the ground burst open, spewing forth massive amounts of hellfire, which, along with a large number of floating spiritual entities, rushed towards the screaming gray-robed man.

It seems that it will grow to a gigantic size and transform into the second generation of the Flame Demon Warrior at any moment.

However, this process ultimately failed.

"Whoosh!"

The firelight illuminated Lipia's life-sized figure, and his enhanced psychic power swirled rapidly around his red and silver body like a storm.

Before their spiritual forms merged with the gray-robed man, they were all pulled into ghostly shadows, and before the gray-robed man could finish shouting, they all vanished into nothingness.

The gray-robed man, who was the main body of the group, was not spared either. He was suddenly grabbed from a distance and brought in front of Xia Chuan before the hellfire burst out of the ground.

"you……"

"Bang--!"

With a final bang, the gray-robed man was lifted into the air by an invisible force, and as Xia Chuan clenched his fist, his entire body was crushed and exploded.

The lava pillars that had surged halfway through the block also subsided and receded.

Only the scorching heat remained, dissipating in the wind.

No one knows where these Kirieloids came from, how long they have existed on Earth, how long they have been plotting in secret, or what connection the existence of Gatanothor has with them...

Those who wanted to take action against him are completely gone.

"call!"

Xia Chuan pondered and lowered his arm.

Perhaps because Ultraman tends to be episodic, Tiga has many parallel storylines, some of which intersect with each other, while others are independent of each other.

After this period of continuous exploration, the feeling is becoming more and more obvious.

The result is that some monsters simply disappear, or monster events that were not recorded in the TV series occur.

The GUTS team's records often involve battling monsters all over the world, rather than being limited to just a few locations.

These Kirieloids, who were originally just background figures, also triggered his premonition of danger.

It poses a serious threat to him.

"Is it over?" Shinjo asked in a daze, only to find that Natsukawa's will had already left.

Sensing the horrific scene, Xincheng instinctively looked down at his hands.

Did he do all of this?

The troublesome Kirieloid race was thus wiped out.

He didn't think it was that cruel; everyone knew what kind of people the Kirielods were.

Lipia essentially foiled a conspiracy ahead of time.

With the same body, why do I perform so poorly?

"Mr. Shinjo?"

The Cavaliers followed the sound and saw New Town standing at the intersection in a daze, just like last time. Their brows twitched repeatedly.

"Is this... also training?"

The training was quite a spectacle.

"Ah, no," Shinjo said, his face flushed and he coughed as he was pulled back to reality. "Just dealing with some trouble... What are you doing here?"

"Of course, it's about finding training opportunities."

Onoue Takumi looked sadly at the chaotic streets behind Shinjo.

Fujiwara Saiji's promotion to D-rank has made them extremely envious.

To put it dramatically, in Fujiwara's eyes, his teammates were all inferior beings.

The guy who was at the bottom of the class actually stepped into the new era ahead of everyone else.

The more they thought about it, the more unwilling they became. The remaining few couldn't even sleep, so they began searching the whole city for the incident.

Hearing the strange noise, I thought I had a chance, but...

"Don't do anything reckless," Shinjo said helplessly. "You might not be a match for those guys."

He had seen all the knights' battles and couldn't fathom how these guys were going to deal with a group of spirit beings.

It is still a spiritual entity capable of growing to enormous size and transforming.

"Are you a member of the GUTS team?" A boy's head popped out from behind Takumi Onoue and the others, his eyes gleaming at the GUTS pistol Shinjo was carrying. "Were you fighting a monster just now?"

"They're not monsters, just a group of aliens."

Shinjo followed up with a sentence, then looked at the boy in surprise after realizing what he meant.

Around 7 years old, with an annoying appearance.

"Who is this kid...?"

"My name is Shin Asuka, not a brat," the boy, seemingly brave but always hiding behind the crowd, said. "I'll join the GUTS team someday, and I'll definitely be better than you then!"

"Oh?" Shinjo chuckled, turning to Onoue and the others for a questioning look. "Where did you find them?"

"TPC has made arrangements for the families of the fallen. Asuka was previously under the captain's supervision," Onoue Takumi said awkwardly. "After hearing that we joined TPC, this kid came over on his own."

"Birds?"

Shinjo suddenly thought of the pilot who had disappeared in the light, glanced at the rather temperamental boy, and said nothing more.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to noodles. There's a soba noodle shop in Hikono-cho that smells amazing."
