Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 148 The True Mirror Knight

"Asakura!"

Office building plaza.

The glass wall of the building reflected the figure of a white knight running at full speed, while the purple body of a king cobra followed closely behind.

After seeing Bai Yu stop at the intersection, Wang She raised his head coldly.

"Not running away anymore? It's about time you disappeared. I'll finish you off right here."

"You're the one who should disappear!"

Bai Yu shouted as he pulled up the summoning machine and inserted the card.

"GUARD VENT!" Protection has arrived!

"Hey!"

As the melodious cry of a swan rang out, a ball of light descended from the sky, landing in Bai Yu's hand and transforming into a white feather shield.

Behind him, a white cape spread its wings and fluttered, releasing a shower of feathers that enveloped the entire area.

A vast expanse of white, not as magnificent as Odin's golden feathers, but still capable of disrupting the senses of enemies within the arena.

The king cobra that came to attack missed its target, failing to hit Bai Yu several times in a row, and instead getting slashed several times itself.

"This is so annoying!"

After missing its target with the drill sword again, the King Serpent angrily drew its summoning card.

"Advent!" The contract has been made!

Hiss!

The giant purple snake slithered along the ground, and suddenly leaped out from the shadows the moment Bai Yu attacked, spitting out a stream of venom from its enormous mouth.

Although Bai Yu managed to raise his wing shield to resist, just like the Green Bull Knight before him, the shield melted away in his hands, and the surrounding feather array vanished as well.

Oops!

"I've had enough fun."

King Serpent chuckled and stood up again, inserting another card into the summoning machine.

"Unite Vent!" Fusion arrives!

The giant snake straightened up halfway, and two more contracted beasts appeared on its sides.

One is a pink, evil stingray, and the other is a buffalo-type mirror monster belonging to the Green Bull Knight.

Bai Yu's heart tightened as he stared intently as the three contracted beasts merged into one.

"How is that possible?"

"call!"

outside the building.

Xia Chuan stood outside the glass door watching the battle when a black dragon suddenly appeared in the reflection of the mirror beside him, and the black figure of the dragon's teeth also came into view.

"That woman is about to die, do you want to save her?"

Longya stepped directly out of the mirror, his tone seductive.

"Merge with me, and you will become the strongest knight! You are worthy!"

Xia Chuan glanced at Longya quietly, grabbed the Dragon Rider Card Box in his hand, faced the glass door, and instantly transformed into a beam of light, merging into the Mirror World.

He had noticed this visitor from the mirror world from the very beginning.

Although this world has escaped the time-space erosion of "Dragon Rider", it still retains many negative effects.

Even the real Mirror Knight has appeared.

"Whoosh!"

As Xia Chuanlongqi's figure appeared in the mirror world, before he could even make a move, a peerless red dragon surrounded by golden flames charged into the battlefield first.

At this moment, the King Serpent had already read the final descent card, and it looked as if Bai Yu was about to be completely devoured by the King Serpent's ultimate move.

However, just as the fused contract beast was ready, it ran into the roaring Peerless Red Dragon.

Even with the fusion of three Mirror Monsters, they still couldn't withstand the ferocious impact of the Peerless Red Dragon.

After devouring the Golden Phoenix, the Peerless Red Dragon became even more powerful, surpassing all other Mirror Monsters even without Xia Chuan's support.

"hold head high--!"

"Dragon Rider?!"

Dragon Fang's body trembled as he stared intently at the glass mirror.

The finally found suitable candidate turned out to be a dragon rider.

"This guy..."

Beneath the black mask, Longya's eyes shone brightly red. He lowered his head slightly and stared directly at Xia Chuan, who was riding the Peerless Dragon in the Mirror World. Behind him, the black dragon was not to be outdone and spewed its breath.

Dragon Rider!

"What?!"

King Snake regained his senses amidst the blast and, upon seeing Natsukawa Ryuki's figure, uncontrollably took a few steps back.

How could such a powerful knight come from the world of knights?

Thinking of what happened in the timeline of "Dragon Rider," King Serpent's heart trembled.

Others may not know, but he knows it very well.

Their ability to return from the Knights World was most likely due to Dragon Knight.

"No!" King Serpent suddenly stopped retreating and stared directly at Xia Chuan. "Dragon Riders can't be from our world, so you're neither a Dragon Rider nor a Dragon Rider!"

"Um?"

Xia Chuan glanced at the King Snake, which was advancing instead of retreating, with a puzzled look, and at the moment of its attack, he sidestepped and snatched the drill sword.

"Whoosh!"

"you……"

Under the King Snake mask, Asakura was terrified. He tried to create some distance, but Natsukawa grabbed his arm tightly and he couldn't break free.

it is true!

A real dragon rider!

"roar--!"

The peerless red dragon coiled around the fused contract beast scroll in mid-air, then roared and hurled itself towards Xia Chuan.

"call!"

Xia Chuan casually flung the King Snake away.

The red dragon arrived first in mid-air, transforming into a ball of golden flame that overlapped with the dragon rider's figure. Then, it leaped up suddenly, and amidst the boiling flames, it swept its leg and smashed the falling fused contract beast.

"Bang--!"

"Ugh!"

The blast spread, and the King Serpent groaned as it crashed into the wall. Before it could even get up, it had already reverted to its initial blank form, the form it had never been in before signing a contract.

The contracted beast was actually...

"How could this happen? Am I going to die too?"

The King Serpent stood up shakily. Without the support of his contracted beast's power, he could no longer suppress his injuries. He looked like an old man in his twilight years, and could barely stand.

After taking only a few steps, the King Serpent suddenly froze, and the belt card case exploded and shattered with cracks.

"Snap!"

"When...?"

The King Serpent collapsed to the ground, revealing Asakura Takeshi's form. He stared directly at Natsukawa, who was walking by, opened his mouth with difficulty, and then quickly dissipated into particles.

"Dragon Rider!"

Bai Yu couldn't bear to turn his head away. It took him a while to realize that he was holding his long sword and retreating. He watched Xia Chuan leave the scene with mixed feelings, wanting to chase after him but not daring to.

After the footsteps had completely faded away, she collapsed to her knees, sobbing uncontrollably.

"elder sister……"

……

Alliance branch.

An elderly man in a suit observed the outside world expressionlessly, regarding the traffic and crowds in Tokyo as if they were ants.

"The list has been updated again," the bespectacled, cold-faced young man said, approaching with his head down. "The new entrant is Mirror Knight Dragon Knight."

"Dragon Rider?"

The old man turned around with his hands behind his back to look at the tablet interface shown to him by the young assistant.

"Don't you find it strange that we're going to such lengths to find that thing?"

The young man lowered his head even further, but still pricked up his ears.

"Don't rush," the old man chuckled to himself, "As long as this world continues to become more knightly, that thing will definitely appear. Right now, let's start investigating the knights on these lists."

"Teacher," the young man asked hesitantly after a moment of silence, "why are all the knights on the list these mysterious figures? What exactly is the Knight Challenge? Why isn't it under the league's control?"

"Because only those who clear the dungeon qualify for the rankings, and most knights can't even enter the dungeon, so how can they clear it?"

"A level 5 knight?"

The young man looked up in surprise.

"This time, the Dragon Knight and the previous knights were all level 5 knights who returned from the dungeon world? I see. That's why those ordinary people were able to come back alive and obtain the Mirror Knight system because the Dragon Knight cleared the dungeon..."

"It's not quite right to call it a dungeon now," the old man squinted. "The real dungeon will be when it can be used reliably and repeatedly. That day shouldn't be far off, and then the world will usher in a true age of knights."
