Kamen Rider Evolution

A huge shadow emerged from the woods, and the resulting darkness blocked out all surrounding light.

A purple poisonous snake shot out from the shadows and opened its deadly snake kiss in mid-air. Purple venom was dripping from its canine-like teeth, and when it opened its mouth, one could even smell the fishy smell of blood.

"Be careful!" Haruto Soma put the ring on his waist, ready to use magic defense.

However, it was obvious that his magic casting speed had slowed down a lot, and he was unable to react for a while. Seeing that he was about to be bitten by the poisonous snake, Jiang Xia suddenly reached out and grabbed the poisonous snake with his bare hands.

After he grabbed the poisonous snake, he exerted a little force, and the originally bent snake was straightened in an instant by the huge force. The attacker also felt this inhuman force, and chose to wrestle with Jiang Xia, trying to pull his body into the shadow.

However, even if Jiang Xia did not transform, his physical strength was not something that a mere Phantom could match.

The attacker failed to drag an ordinary human into the shadows as he wished, so he exerted force suddenly and several poisonous snakes shot out from the shadows again. The snakes' mouths filled with venom all opened and bit Jiang Xia.

However, when the poisonous snakes were halfway through their flight, Jiang Xia suddenly pulled, and the attacker, along with the snakes, were pulled out of the shadows by a tremendous force. The slender poisonous snakes were connected to the back of its head, and its body covered with purple scales was exposed.

It was a phantom that looked like a snake. Those purple-black poisonous snakes were its hair. All of these poisonous snakes were pulled straight in the opposite direction by a huge force. Its pale pointed face was blocked by the purple-red scales, leaving only its chin exposed. It looked like a human female's face and was screaming.

Because at the moment he pulled her over, Jiang Xia clenched his fist and punched her in the abdomen hard. The huge force created ripples in the air the moment it touched her body.

The snake phantom felt as if she was hit by a hammer used to destroy objects. The scales and bones on her body made shattering sounds. The huge impact caused her body to burst into blood instantly. If she had not turned into a monster in advance, she would probably have been killed by this punch!
A phantom that looked like a firebird behind him looked at his companion flying back at a faster speed, and rushed over to hug it. As a result, he was also blown away for several meters by the impact, until he crashed into a big tree and slowly stopped.

"Are you really a human?" Haruto Soma was so surprised that he even stopped transforming.

"Of course, it's just that I usually just like to use magic and generally don't use my body to fight directly." Jiang Xia said.

Afterwards, Jiang Xia turned his attention to the enemies in the shadows. It was still the same three. The one who just launched the sneak attack was Medusa, the one who helped her was Felix, and the other one was Guremlin.

Of course, there is much more to it than that.

The shadows in the woods were surging. In addition to the three of them, there were other phantoms. Suddenly, dozens of phantoms of different kinds walked out of the shadows, all of them holding their weapons, and directly surrounded Jiang Xia and Cao Zhenqingren.

Just like the outside world, the phantoms of the magic world also learned to come out in full force, but the enemies they faced now had changed. The moment the encirclement was completed, they all pointed their weapons at the two people in the middle. It was like a game of monsters hunting humans.

When Cao Zhenqingren saw such a large number of phantoms, a solemn look suddenly flashed across his face. Based on his combat experience, one-on-many combat was quite normal, but those were all composed of a phantom summoning multiple zombies, but now it was almost all phantoms.

Now it was as if they were in the lair of a phantom.

"It seems that some people are getting impatient and sending out their little pets to kill us in one go." Jiang Xia looked around and stood back to back with Cao Zhenqingren.

"Are all these phantoms subordinates of the golden magician?" asked Cao Zhenqingren.

"This world is full of magicians, and it's very convenient for them to get desperate. Do you remember the opportunity I mentioned?" Jiang Xia asked.

"Well, maybe we can use this opportunity to find the person behind the scenes."

At this moment, Medusa barely recovered from her near-death state. She looked at the two people in the middle and let out a scream.

The phantoms around roared at the same time. These phantoms were of strange shapes, as if they were made up of a large number of creatures. Although they were humanoid, they were more like irrational monsters. At the same time, the surrounding environment seemed to have changed. A layer of lavender halo slowly spread from the surroundings to the sky.

"What is this?" Cao Zhenqingren looked up in surprise.

"It's a magic barrier, and the magic power is almost the same as yours. It should be set up by another you in this world." Jiang Xia said, "He not only wants to trap us here to death, but also cut off our connection with the outside world so that the battle here will not alert the magician residents outside."

"But if they know we are here, Xiao Li's whereabouts might also be discovered." Jiang Xia reminded Cao Zhenqingren. Cao Zhenqingren said: "Then we have to leave here as soon as possible. Xiao Li doesn't know magic. Once she is caught, it will be over."

"No, just like the other you did, I also set up a magic barrier in the Face Shadow Hall, which they cannot break alone." Jiang Xia said, "I don't want you to be distracted by this problem during the battle and affect your combat ability. As I just said, this is an opportunity to find out the mastermind, but such an opportunity should not involve the people around you, especially those close to you."

"It really makes me feel safe to have a companion like you!"

"Of course, it is our duty to protect those who should be protected! Come on, it's show time!" Jiang Xia smiled.

"This is my line, Show Time!" Haruto Soma also smiled and raised the magic ring on his right hand.

"Transform!"

The red and yellow flip-top magic rings fell at the same time. The fiery red magic circle and the bright yellow magic circle formed a defense, instantly sending all the phantoms flying.

Flame! Please! HiHiHiHiHi! "

"Change! Now!"

The two magicians simultaneously drew weapons from the corresponding magic circles, one was a flute sword and the other was a spear sword.

The phantoms that pounced over submerged the two people's bodies, but then the phantoms that were large enough to cover the sky all flew backwards, and the white haori and the black skirt shuttled among the army of phantoms.

The white blade light drawn by the white flute sword directly cut off the head of a phantom from the back of its neck, and then kicked the headless phantom in the chest. Its body was kicked away in an instant and exploded with the huge impact force of Jiang Xia's foot, turning into fragments all over the sky.

Cao Zhenqingren circled in the air, and the spear and sword in his right hand rotated and slashed at the chests of a large number of phantoms. With just one rotation, several dazzling flames flashed in the air.

The phantoms around were either blasted into pieces by Jiang Xia, or slashed back by the spiral blows of the silver spear and sword.

The two mages who had fought elegantly at first now gave up their previous fighting methods and simply cut a path through the army of dozens or hundreds of phantoms.

However, as time went on, the gap between the two gradually emerged.

Jiang Xia's eyes remained unchanged, his steps were steady, and the chopping movements of his hands did not even change. Every time he swung the flute sword, a phantom was directly chopped in half.

It's different for Haruto Soma. Although he is a magician, he is still an ordinary person under the armor. Even with the help of magic, he is now beginning to fall into a disadvantage and cannot deal with the Phantom with pure close combat means.

Cao Zhenqingren slapped the spear and sword in his hand, and several magic patterns continued to emerge on the hilt. The magician's silver bullets instantly filled the entire magazine, and as he swept past, the silver bullets sprayed out.

The bullet flew out of the muzzle and drew an arc in the air like a red snake. The magic patterns on the bullet began to activate, and the burning fire element burned in the air, like an elongated flame flow, destroying all the injured phantoms along the way.

Using a small amount of magic power and the magician's special bullets can also destroy the phantom.

Because there are too many enemies, magic power is more important to a magician than physical strength.

The densely packed phantoms that originally surrounded this place were now being eliminated at a speed visible to the naked eye under the attack of the two.

Medusa originally thought that it would be a very easy task to gather so many phantoms together to get the Philosopher's Stone, but she didn't expect that she would be nearly killed by a punch from the white magician, and then she would witness the moment when the phantom army was slaughtered.

"Why won't these two guys just die!" Medusa roared. (End of this chapter)
