Kamen Rider Evolution

Magic Tower.

This is where the supreme ruler of this magical kingdom lives, and the Dark Wizard is obviously very familiar with this place. Coming back here is like going home, just like a drop of water merging into the ocean, and he cannot be found at all.

However, this method of hiding the magical aura is useless to Jiang Xia. As long as he can capture the faint aura that belongs only to him, he can find his trace.

Just like using elemental vision, you can find people based on their traces.

It's quite ironic. The Dark Wizard is an enemy of humanity, with wanted posters all over the streets and regarded as an enemy by the residents of the magical kingdom, but he can enter and leave the center of the kingdom as if it were his own way home. This must mean that there is a serious problem with the top management here.

Although everything seems peaceful and prosperous on the outside, the roots inside are beginning to rot.

The phantoms born here have also become thugs for certain people. It is almost certain that such a huge number of phantoms must have been deliberately created by someone.

I just don’t know what the use of so many phantoms is in this world full of magicians. Maybe they want to use them as weapons to conquer the outside world.

At that time, it will be a battle between two worlds.

Jiang Xia and Cao Zhenqingren simultaneously cancelled their transformations the moment they entered the tower. The transformed appearance was too conspicuous and not very suitable for stealth and camouflage operations.

After canceling the transformation, the two people hid on one side of the wall. On the left side of the wall was a glowing passage with reddish candles lit on both sides of the passage. Dark red curtains covered both sides of the passage. They had just flown in from the window behind the curtains.

At the end of the passage, there is a dark red wooden door. There are court magicians patrolling around wearing black cloaks and holding wooden sticks in their hands. Perhaps those are not wooden sticks, but magic wands.

Although they also rely on belts to cast magic, they may also use wooden sticks as weapons to punish their enemies.

After seeing the attire of those court magicians, Haruto Soma used the magic of changing clothes to put on a black robe over his black short leather jacket, and put on a hat. He lowered his head and prepared to disguise himself as a court magician here and blend in.

When he was about to enter the passage, he found that Jiang Xia had not changed his clothes or his appearance.

Haruto Soma spoke in the quietest voice of his life: "Why don't you change clothes with me? If you don't have the magic to change clothes, I can lend you my ring to use."

"Because there is no need." Jiang Xia glanced at Soma Haruto who was wearing a black robe, and then his body blended into the air little by little, like a picture erased by an eraser, and became invisible.

Cao Zhenqingren subconsciously reached out to grab it, but caught nothing. He looked around in surprise and found that he had no idea which direction Jiang Xia was.

"This doesn't seem to be magic." He didn't hear any magic chanting.

Cao Zhenqingren pulled the black hat on his head to cover the brim, adjusted the wooden stick in his hand according to standard and unified movements, and walked carefully into the passage. Of course, he also learned this on the spot.

Compared to Cao Zhenqingren's caution, Jiang Xia seemed a bit unscrupulous after becoming invisible. He just walked to the middle of the passage. Since the patrolling magicians on both sides were leaning on both sides of the passage, he was the safest one.

But Cao Zhenqing was different. Every time he approached a court magician, he would bow and maintain mutual respect.

This all stems from the fact that a court magician took the initiative to greet Haruto Soma when he first met him, but in order not to reveal anything strange, he had to maintain this attitude all the way.

And because the passage was quite long, there were patrolling magicians every few sections, so Soma Haruto just bowed all the way through.

"It was so easy to pass." Haruto Soma said in surprise as he glanced at the court magicians patrolling on both sides of the passage.

This is so easy that it's a bit abnormal.

He gently pushed open the wooden door in front of him, which was taller than his own door, and walked into the room. After he entered, the room closed silently.

There is no one here. The circular honeycomb-shaped bookcases are neatly arranged from low to high. The number of books inside is astonishing, and there are different magics on them to protect these precious magic books. These are the precious knowledge that has led to the development of this kingdom to its current state.

It's like a big library in the wizarding world.

In the center of the room, there is a large wooden table with a black and white chess piece on it. This is an endgame, and the black king has been forced into a dead end by the white army. The white king only needs to make one move to attack the black king's city and chop off the black king's neck.

"White Magician, are you still here?" asked Haruto Soma in a low voice.

After his companion suddenly disappeared, there was no sound, even the sound of wind and breathing produced by the movement of the body disappeared, as if he had sneaked in here alone, and Jiang Xia's existence seemed to be just an illusion.

"Of course, I have been."

As soon as Cao Zhenqingren finished speaking, he found a broad and strong hand on his shoulder. He turned his head and looked back. Jiang Xia was standing behind him, and at the same time, the feeling of nothingness disappeared.

"Huh." Soma Haruto breathed a sigh of relief. He decided that after he returned, he would ask Uncle Wajima to make a ring that could make him invisible. The invisibility ability was really convenient.

"This is the center of the Magic Kingdom. I just took a look. Below this room is the place where the magic of the Magic Kingdom converges. It is also the final disappearing point of the Dark Wizard's magic." Jiang Xia retracted his right hand and walked towards the chess table.

The basement of this room is empty, and the passage is right in front of this table, so you can find the mastermind behind the scene by simply removing the magic on it.

At this moment, before Jiang Xia could remove the magic, the wooden board in front of the table suddenly opened automatically, revealing a downward rotating passage inside.

However, neither of them went down immediately, because a person who was familiar yet unfamiliar to them walked out step by step from the opened passage—Masahiro Kouyama.

"Another me..." Soma Haruto was not very surprised that there was another him in this world. He knew that his counterpart in this world was an evil guy.

"The master is waiting for you downstairs, the white magician who possesses the Philosopher's Stone." 'Haruto Soma' said to Jiang Xia after walking out of the underground passage.

"It seems that I am the only one invited." Jiang Xia turned to Cao Zhenqingren and said, "I'll leave this to you. Is that ok?"

"Of course." The red magic gem ring that Cao Zhenqingren put on.

"Fighting against yourself is like the left hand versus the right hand. No one knows who will win." Jiang Xia sighed, then retracted his gaze and walked down the open spiral staircase.

There was an unusual atmosphere inside the stairs, and it was not until he pushed open the door at the end of the stairs that the surroundings became bright.

This is a very large space where various machines are stored. Some of them are devices similar to computer operating desks, and behind the devices are some thick black pipes connected to the tall trees standing in the center.

All the magic power flowing in the Magic Kingdom is gathered in this big tree.

This huge tree acts as a container for magic.

But there is something even more terrifying under this towering tree: pale human bones.

A huge number of skeletons are arranged in circles around the bottom of the tree, just like building blocks, built from the bottom to the top. You can even smell a faint sense of magic on these skeletons.

This means that the bones are still fresh.

"The container of Thanatos?" Jiang Xia said slowly as he stood in front of the big tree made of bones.

Thanatos is the god of death, and his vessel represents the use of humans as reservoirs to accumulate enormous magical power.

Jiang Xia had once faced tens of millions of brutal alien insect armies and had seen the bloody scenes of them killing humans, so he was not overly shocked when he saw this huge tree made of human bones.

Now I just want to kill the Shaper.

"Yes, this is the key to the magic circulation system." A deep voice came out from the other side of the bone tree. It was a middle-aged man dressed in black with a sinister look on his face.

"Golden Magician, the person who helped you come to this world should also be here." Jiang Xia looked at him and said lightly.

The middle-aged man now is the human form of the golden magician, the human named Oma.

"Of course, in order to obtain the ultimate power, we will unite our camps."

The golden magician walked out from behind Omar and looked at Jiang Xia together.

"Sure enough, the only one who can help myself is myself, and there are two golden magicians." Jiang Xia sighed as he looked at Omar and the golden magician standing side by side.

One is the golden magician from the magic gem world, and the other is the golden magician from the earth.

They are different from the two Soma Haruto who are in a hostile relationship with each other. On the contrary, they are both magicians transformed from phantoms.

And they both have the same power and ambition, so they will not allow their other selves to be defeated before their plans are completed. (End of this chapter)
