Guyver Armor: KAP-2

Faced with the intertwined attacks, Kamino's eyes beneath his mask remained calm as still water.

The head-mounted sensor, seamlessly connected to the brain's neural pathways, rotated flexibly, clearly reflecting the direction, angle, and trajectory of every attack from the surrounding area in his mind.

He lightly touched the ground with his toes, his body sliding sideways like a ghost. Two golden laser beams grazed the edge of his shoulder armor before he took a small step back. Thick tentacles, carrying a foul stench, came to entwine him, but were always a beat too slow and unable to wrap around his limbs.

With a flick of his wrist, the high-frequency sword at the elbow of the KEP-2 sprang out with a "hum," the blade distorting into a faint afterimage under the high-frequency vibration, and the air was cut with a hissing sound as the pale blue light reached it.

"This is what you should use in close combat."

As Kamino Tsubasa continued his instruction, his left elbow suddenly swung back in a counter-attack, the movement so fast that only a blue arc of light remained, slicing through the night.

"Pfft—"

A crisp cutting sound ripped through the air as two tentacles covered in ring-shaped suction cups and glistening with slippery slime were severed.

Snevato let out a sharp, piercing shriek. The wound on its severed wrist writhed rapidly, showing signs of regeneration. Its remaining six arms and legs coiled around it with increasing frenzy.

Between the tentacles and laser beams, Tsubasa Kanno moved with light steps, shifting and turning as if taking a leisurely stroll.

Every sidestep and every counterattack was precise, like a pre-calculated program, with no superfluous movements.

Each time the pale blue sword light flashed, a tentacle would fall to the ground with a piercing scream, the high temperature of the high-frequency blade instantly turning the cut surface charred and carbonized.

In just a few dozen seconds, seven or eight charred tentacles lay scattered on the ground, and a strange, smoky aroma, similar to that of grilled seafood, filled the air.

"Your octopus legs regenerate really fast; it's a shame you're not opening an octopus barbecue restaurant."

Tsubasa Kamino's mocking voice came through the armor, and Snevato, enraged, let out an angry roar, and his remaining tentacles began to swing even more wildly.

However, the incoming laser beam began to show signs of slowing down—

After nearly a minute of frenzied outburst, Movia's shoulder laser-emitting organs were on the verge of overload, and the lens even began to heat up and turn red, emitting an unbearable buzzing sound.

Seizing this opening, Capu 2 suddenly stepped on an oncoming tentacle, using the momentum to leap into the air, its body shooting towards Movia like an arrow released from a bow.

"You dare to jump into the air? Don't underestimate me!"

Upon seeing this, Movia's pupils contracted sharply. He mustered his last bit of strength to accelerate the energy output, and the two laser beams, which were clearly not bright enough, shot out again.

"Go to hell!"

But the dark yellow figure drew an incredible angled trajectory in the air, avoiding all the beams of light.

The gravity control system of the Guyver armor helped Tsubasa Konno adjust his posture in the air, allowing him to dodge an attack that was originally bound to hit him as if defying the laws of physics, and instantly rush to Movia's front.

"Pfft—"

Blue light intertwined to form a cross-shaped slash, and two sword beams fell simultaneously.

Movia stared wide-eyed as he was brutally sliced ​​into four pieces, along with the laser-emitting organ in his shoulder. Pale green blood mixed with shattered internal organs gushed out, splashing onto the ground with a sizzling, corrosive sound.

"This is a high-frequency sword, a blade generated by high-frequency vibrations that can cut through any object."

Undeterred by his original intention, Tsubasa Kamino continued teaching. After landing steadily, he turned to look at the water surface, and two long streams of hot air shot out from the heat dissipation vents on both sides of his head armor with a "hiss."

Having lost all his teammates, Snevato, seeing the situation was dire, had already retreated back to the bottom of the river, dragging his tattered tentacles along.

As a naval warfare-specialized beastman, the murky riverbed is its natural home ground, where its mobility and regeneration speed are greatly enhanced.

"Damn you, Kep, do you dare chase after me?"

"Trying to run away?"

A cold smile curved at the corner of Jinno Tsubasa's lips as he placed his hands, palms facing each other, loosely clasped in front of his waist.

The gravity control sphere device in the center of the waist suddenly lit up with a stream of light, and the energy of the entire armor began to gather in the palm, causing the gravity field in the air to subtly distort.

"Watch closely, this is the final blow! It's executed using gravity manipulation abilities—"

As he spoke, the gravitational energy condensed in the space in Tsubasa Shinno's palm began to compress and collapse rapidly, gradually forming a blackish-purple energy ball the size of a bowling ball.

Twisted patterns flowed across the surface of the sphere, constantly changing shape. The surrounding air hummed under the pull of gravity, and pebbles and fallen leaves on the ground were involuntarily drawn towards it.

"Heavy Pressure Cannon!"

As the sphere expanded to its limit, Tsubasa Kamino suddenly pushed forward with both arms, and the dark purple energy sphere shot towards the water like a cannonball.

Wherever it passed, the originally calm water was forcibly twisted and separated by the enormous gravity, carving out a dry channel in the middle of the river and exposing Vanesto, who was hiding five meters underwater, to the air!

Before Vanesto's compound eyes could even register the astonishment, the distorted gravity sphere had already struck its body with pinpoint accuracy.

The next second, a terrifying gravitational field erupted instantly.

Vanesto's enormous body was torn and squeezed by invisible forces in the distorted gravity space. The crisp sound of bones breaking and the muffled sound of muscles tearing mixed together. In an instant, it was crushed into countless fragments, which crashed down with the turbid river water and were completely annihilated.

The water surface slowly closed, returning to calm, leaving only a sticky surface with faintly glowing bloodstains and lingering gravitational waves in the air.

Less than three minutes.

As he silently calculated the time from the start of the battle until now, Tsubasa Kamino's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

His concern for time stemmed from the daytime tests.

In order to find out the situation of the Qiangzhi Armor going out of control, and at the same time avoid the sight of the voyeur Makijima Agito, after completing his teaching duties at school today, he asked for leave on the grounds of feeling unwell and quietly slipped away to a secluded area deep in the back mountains.

The results of the simulated combat test worried him greatly: the damaged control system of the KAP-2 could only support high-intensity combat for three minutes.

If the time limit is exceeded, it may trigger a backlash from some of the limb-armored creatures, becoming a huge vulnerability in the battle.

If the battle lasts longer than eight minutes, the biological cells covering the entire body of the armored creature will begin a full-scale rampage, instantly causing the armored user to lose consciousness.

By the time Tsubasa Kamino regained consciousness, nearly 60 seconds had quietly passed—a fatal weakness that could have been fatal.

"Three minutes? Where did this warrior of light from the Land of Hope come from?"

As he recalled this, Tsubasa Kamino made a bittersweet comment in his mind, a slight twitch appearing at the corner of his mouth.
