Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 308 Artificial

"Let it go a little further!"

"Will President Hongshang be coming?"

"No, only Ms. Erika will come."

"That secretary?"

New survivor base.

Xia Chuan walked past the refugees who were busy setting up.

The new base is an unfinished building hidden in the suburbs, leaking air and water, and in need of renovation everywhere.

The silver coins collected earlier were stuffed into mechanical devices, which quickly formed a modular fortress. Even the electrical circuits were successfully connected, and colorful lights lit up in the darkness, which somewhat dispelled the pain of their fallen comrades.

Xia Chuan stopped in front of a group of emaciated children.

Perhaps due to the scarcity of living supplies, their clothes were tattered and stained with blood and dirt after a long period of wandering and homelessness, and they smelled terrible.

"These children... were saved by Eiji at the last moment, and no one has seen Eiji since."

Izumi Hina approached with drinking water and bread.

"Let's eat something first, this is all we have right now."

"Where's Anku?" Xia Chuan asked, taking the water. "You should have another greedy companion named Anku, right?"

"You knew all this?"

Izumi Hina glanced at Natsukawa, who appeared to be a companion but whose demeanor and temperament were completely different, and her gaze quickly dimmed.

"In the war that brought Oz back to life in ancient times, all of Ankh's core coins were devoured, including his consciousness..."

"There's no need to tell him about this, is there? He's just some guy of unknown origin."

The crew-cut man carried a rifle down the stairs, a yellow glint in his eyes.

"I am the only one who can truly save this world."

"Mr. Date?"

Izumi Hina looked at the bald man who had suddenly changed his appearance with a puzzled expression.

"How rude of you, Mr. Date! If it weren't for Eiji today..."

"Binet!"

The cyclist, who had received treatment, suddenly stood up.

"Get away! He's not Mr. Date!"

"My name is Haoda!"

The crew-cut man casually tossed aside the rifle, then sneered as he pulled out the OZ Driver and fastened it to his waist.

"See? Now I'm Oz!"

"How did that end up in your hands?" Everyone in the settlement was drawn to the OZ Driver.

"Of course it's in my hands," the crew-cut man's hair turned purple as he pointed directly at Natsukawa, "because I am Hino Eiji's successor!"

"It's a birthday present from the chairman to him, to celebrate the birth of the artificial Core Medallion and the artificial Greedy One."

A brightly dressed female secretary followed closely behind, carrying a laptop and smiling at the crowd.

"After all, he is a rare artificial greedy being, and like Mr. Anku, Gouda is also willing to stand on our side to deal with Ancient Oz."

"Man-made?"

"What's going on?"

"There's no need for further explanation!"

The crew-cut man glanced at the female secretary with displeasure, snorted, and walked past Xia Chuan.

"Only Oars can defeat Oars, and that's why I was born. No matter what, I will fulfill Eiji's wish!"

"Before he died? Hino really is already..."

The residents stirred again, and the children in the corner gathered around.

"Brother Eiji!"

"Everyone, that's the situation!" Chairman Hong Shang's image was projected onto the laptop screen. With regret, he rose from his office chair in a deep voice. "The enemy's strength is too great, so we need to rely on Haoda's power to launch a counterattack!"

"Just this guy?"

Danqi limped forward, his eyes fixed on the bald man whose body was completely consumed by greed.

"The power of Oars isn't something just anyone can wield, especially against an ancient king, the First Oars..."

"Hey, hey, hey," the crew-cut man coldly scrutinized the rider, "You have so little faith in me? I came here specifically to support you!"

"Kimijima," Chairman Kougami called out, hands behind his back, "I also have a gift for you, Rinaka!"

"yes!"

The female secretary put the computer aside, turned around and took out the brand new Dawn Rider driver.

Birth X.

Compared to the base Rider Driver, the new system expands to have the same 3 coin slots as OZ, and comes with a set of artificial core coins.

The three powers of shrimp, crab, and scorpion.

Unlike the original ancient coins with a black background, the three newly minted coins reflect a charming reddish-purple luster under the light.

"This is the new Birth!" Chairman Hong Shang's loud congratulatory voice suddenly rang out, "Happy birthday, Kimishima! Now you also have your own core strength!"

……

"That's simply not enough!"

The greedy rule the territory.

Ancient Oz, who descended as king, ruled over everything, and massive amounts of Cell Coins constantly converged upon him through the Devouring Monster.

But ancient Oz was like a black hole, never satisfied.

The regular cell coin can no longer provide much power.

But if it's a core coin...

Ancient Oz threw off his cloak and stopped absorbing the Cell Coins. The knight, his eyes rife with cracks, turned to the trembling insect-like greed below.

"Please give me another chance!" The insect-like greedy creature trembled and crawled on the ground. "Give me a coin, and next time I'll definitely wipe out those rebels!"

"Unfortunately, there won't be a next time."

Ancient Oz coldly spread his fingers, and the terrified insect-greedy creatures had barely turned around when their bodies exploded once more.

Silver coins fell to the ground with a whoosh, but only one green core coin was absorbed into the body of the ancient Oz.

"Damn it, we lost two."

"king……"

The remaining few humans in their gluttonous forms swallowed hard, instinctively trying to transform and escape, but they too were enveloped by the power of the ancient Oz's palm.

"No!"

"You all should become a part of my body too."

Ancient Oz lit up his knightly eyes and exerted even more force, causing all the greedy ones to collapse under the intense suction.

One by one, the core coins flew into the ancient Oz's body, and the remaining cellular coins collapsed like building blocks, covering the ground.

"Hehehe!"

Feeling an abundance far beyond what ordinary coins could provide, Ancient Oz stretched out his arms with delight, and his Knight Suit fused with all the core coins amidst a golden current.

Amidst a mingling of various colored lights, powerful armor resembling rhinoceros horns materialized on both shoulders of the ancient Oz, extending weapons from his limbs, and making the round shield on his chest even more robust.

"Not enough! I can now fuse even more Core Medals, right?"

"perhaps."

Decade's figure was reflected in the bar's mirror, as he casually fiddled with the RX Knight card in his hand.

"Your desires have certainly opened my eyes. Reviving you would be a good investment, but can this really continue? It seems like a formidable opponent has arrived."

"Hmph, this is my world."

Ancient Oz tore off his cloak and strode out of the stronghold, which was covered with cell coins.

"Just watch, your investment will definitely be worthwhile. I hope you will keep your promise and take me to other dimensions."
