Guyver Armor: KAP-2

"Beep beep beep—!!"

The piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the entire base, and the red warning lights on the ceiling flashed wildly, turning the corridor red.

"asshole!"

Richard Geor burst out of the elevator, his gaze fixed on the yellow figure, his face so dark it could drip water:

"These scumbags, whom we haven't been able to find anywhere for so many days, dare to run wild right under our noses! Beastmen, charge!"

Having learned from his mistakes, Geo decided not to act rashly this time, but instead sent several ordinary beastmen to the front lines.

He narrowed his emerald green eyes, carefully examining the shape of the yellow figure and even secretly sensing its energy fluctuations—it was exactly the same as the KEP-2 he remembered.

After confirming that everything was correct, he led a few elite guards, pushed off with his feet, and hurriedly chased after them.

"Pass on my orders!" Geo shouted back as he chased after them.

"Activate Level One alert immediately! Close the giant gates between the upper and lower elevator floors! Seal off all connecting passages! I'll make sure this rat can't escape!"

The yellow figure—that is, Tsubasa Kamino's implanted clone—completely followed the implanted instructions and caused a great disturbance in the corridor, making quite a commotion.

After that, it didn't linger in the fight. The yellow afterimage flashed through the red-lit corridor, then rushed towards a secluded room deep in the middle corridor without looking back.

The walls of that room had already been remotely opened by Hayami and his team, revealing a hidden metal passageway inside, from which a faint light shone.

This is the secret passage leading to the outer shrine!

With the ruins base on the verge of destruction, this path built by Oda Kirito and his team is making its final contribution.

"What?!"

As Geo reached the doorway, his pupils contracted sharply as he looked at the open secret passage.

His mind raced, and he instantly pinpointed the culprit: "Damn it! It was that traitor Makijima Agito who did it!"

His voice was filled with rage, and his teeth were grinding together.

"This guy's betrayal was indeed premeditated! He actually hid such a backup plan in the ruins base long ago!"

"No wonder Kep was able to easily reach the center of the base..."

Watching the mimic disappear into the depths of the passage, Geo didn't have time to think further. With a roar, he led his guards into the passage, giving chase.

Meanwhile, in the monitoring room at the bottom of the ruins base, Hayami watched the figures of Geo and his group gradually disappear on the screen, excitedly grabbing the communicator, his voice filled with barely suppressed joy:

"Mr. Kamino! The plan has succeeded! Geo and most of the guards in the base have been lured to the secret passage by the mimics!"

The road to the upper vault is now completely empty!

Having confirmed the plan's success, Tsubasa Kamino slowly raised his head, focused his mind, and directly entered the biological core of the relic spaceship.

"Absorb geothermal energy to the fullest extent, replenish energy, and then..." He sent a firm signal to the remnant spaceship:

"Awaken fully, ancient behemoth!"

The moment the thought was transmitted, the relic spaceship suddenly emitted a deep hum, which instantly spread throughout the entire lower base area.

The massive hull first undulated slightly, as if it were beginning to breathe, and after a few seconds it turned into a violent tremor.

The ground shook, the surrounding metal pipes rattled, and the wires fixed to the wall came loose one after another, falling to the ground and sparking.

Beneath the mottled gray hull of the spaceship, faint orange bioluminescence began to glow, like a gradually awakening galaxy, flowing along the bio-textures of the hull and illuminating the dimly lit lower areas in an orange-yellow hue.

Thousands of meters underground, the tentacles of a creature connected to the bottom of the spaceship are deeply embedded in the churning magma, greedily absorbing the enormous geothermal energy contained within.

"Mr. Kanno, report the latest monitoring data!" Ijuin stared at the monitor screen and reported the vital signs data into the communicator:

"Currently, the core energy zone of the remnant spacecraft has exceeded 300°C and is steadily rising at a rate of 25°C per minute. It is expected to reach the critical value of 800°C in ten minutes, at which point... this behemoth will truly be fully awake!"

"Understood, then let's get started."

Tsubasa Kanno's voice came through the communicator. As he spoke, he and Akira Fukamachi simultaneously bent down and put their exploration backpacks back on their shoulders.

In addition to ensuring real-time communication, the backpack has been specially modified with a refrigerated compartment in the lower half for storing the acquired vaccines.

Ready, two figures, one in green and one in blue, leaped out of the temporary open exit at the top of the spaceship.

Almost at the same moment they leaped out, Tsubasa Kanno and Akira Fukamachi activated the gravity control system of the Guyver armor. Their bodies, which were about to fall, instantly became as light as feathers, and they quickly ascended along the dark elevator shaft.

But soon, they encountered their first obstacle—

A massive elevator shaft gate, three meters thick, had been completely closed as ordered by Geo, standing like an iron wall at the top of the ventilation shaft, blocking the way.

The door panels, made of special alloy, gleamed with a cold, hard metallic luster, clearly representing the base's last-ditch emergency defense measure.

But this seemingly impenetrable barrier only requires a little more effort to break through the "high-frequency blades" of the two Kepps.

The control metal on Tsubasa Kanno's forehead instantly burst forth with a blinding blue light, and the high-frequency blade at his elbow unfolded in response, its length approaching one meter! The massive blade vibrated at a high frequency, emitting a sharp and piercing buzzing sound.

Simultaneously, Akira Fukamachi activated the arm blade of KEP-1. The two exchanged a glance and swung their blades at the gate at the same time.

"Sizzle—!"

The orange-red and azure-blue light blades simultaneously cut into the alloy door panel. Initially, there was some resistance when the blades cut in, but after a slight movement, they moved smoothly.

Two Kepps swung their arms rapidly, making smooth, mirror-like cuts. The heavy alloy door panels were sliced ​​off piece by piece, falling down the ventilation shaft and crashing below with a series of dull echoes.

In just one minute, a neat two-meter square opening was forcibly carved into this seemingly rock-solid giant metal gate.

Without lingering, Tsubasa Kanno and Akira Fukamachi leaped out of the hole and landed steadily on the metal floor of the middle passage.

The two looked around and found the passageway deserted. The beastmen who had been patrolling the area had been drawn to the other side by the commotion caused by the bio-armored creatures. Only the red warning lights on the ceiling were still flashing persistently.
