Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 344 Reality Game

"Ding-dong!"

"Is the tutor not here?"

At the villa's entrance, Emu Hosho hesitated before pressing the doorbell, but there was no response.

After silently examining the dual-body cartridge in his hand for a while, he had no choice but to leave.

On the eve of the start of the next level of the game, the Collapse Virus has already spread rapidly in the real world, and many new knights in schools have been infected.

In addition, there's tomorrow's "Legendary Knight Conquest Quest".

The seriousness of the situation suddenly escalated several levels.

He always felt he should come and ask Master Shen Yong.

"Is it Eiyasu Hosho?"

Dan Rito rested his chin on his hand and stood by the study window, thoughtfully watching Hosho Eimu leave.

"What a strange world, where illusion and reality intertwine. This must be what a real game is like, right? That Kamen Rider Challenge and Skynet are both very worthy of study..."

"Be quiet."

Xia Chuan's voice came from next door, and under the invisible psychic force, Tan Kuroto's expression changed drastically, and he covered his mouth again.

When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

The terrifying pressure to survive made him accept the fact that he had lost his freedom.

He is no longer the all-powerful Tanli Fighting God, but just an ordinary Collapse Source Body, unable to transform or prolong his life.

It's much worse than in "Exeed". Not only was her identity stolen, but her life and death were also entirely in Xia Chuan's hands.

"You'd better finish making the cartridge before the game starts tomorrow."

Xia Chuan scanned the study with his mind and only looked away when he saw Dan Kuroto sitting obediently in front of the computer.

He had plenty of blank cards, and many of them materialized when he came out of the game world.

What's missing now is the cartridge data.

Fortunately, Dan Kuroto possesses most of the cartridge data for "Exide," so if he seizes the time, he should be able to develop those special cartridges.

As for the sadness and resentment that Dan Ri-dou was subtly revealing, he didn't care much about it, nor was he afraid that this guy would betray him.

For now, that's about all Dan Kuroto can do.

He will seal this guy away afterwards.

Whether or not to delete the data depends on the situation.

After all, Dan Kuroto's talent is indeed remarkable, and even he would feel it would be a pity to delete him directly.

……

The next day.

The already highly anticipated "Kamen Rider Chronicles" has become an even bigger focus in Tokyo and throughout the island nation, with game cartridges selling like hotcakes and many people even traveling from other places to queue up to buy them.

The Alliance branch appears to have received orders from higher-ups and has consistently refrained from interfering with Foundation X's actions.

With the launch of the next level of the game and the heavily promoted "Legendary Knight Strategy Guide," the number of players surged.

Aside from a number of players who genuinely want to resurrect their loved ones, almost all of them are there for Chronos.

Rumor has it that obtaining the power of a legendary knight is equivalent to instantly becoming a level six knight.

Because of the embellishment and decoration by Dan Masamune, the new batch of collectors seem unaware that it's just a gimmick.

As Xia Chuan walked along the road, he encountered one confident knight student after another joining the game.

This world is not lacking in knight systems, and most can be redeemed with points. However, the fusion coefficient is often pitifully low, and ordinary people do not have the financial resources to accumulate them.

Although level 4 knights have become the mainstream, with a few exceptions, they are basically early knights who fought their way up.

The alliance is keen on collecting points, but resources are limited. With the increase in the number of knights, it is now almost twice as difficult to reach level four knights by relying on resources.

This is one of the reasons for the surge in Kamen Rider Chronicle players.

"This won't work; we can't find the legendary knight at all."

"I've heard that the legendary knight only appears when fighting high-level bosses."

"I wish I had qualified earlier. Right now, the level gap between me and the players ahead of me is too big, so I don't think I have much of a chance."

"Level isn't everything, and besides, you can level up now."

In the shopping street of the plaza, Xia Chuan found a corner to eat and turned around to see several middle school students passing by with "Chronicle" cassettes in their hands.

Ultimately, it's still immature.

Didn't these kids think about the consequences of losing the game?

Can you play Chronicles without cheats?

upgrade?

The game has progressed to level 50 or even level 99.

"It's not too late to give up now," Natsukawa said, slicing open a cream pudding as the middle school students approached. "You'll die if you just casually participate in this kind of game."

"Who are you, sir?"

The students, who had been excited, suddenly stopped walking, their faces falling.

"At your age, you're no longer qualified to be a knight, are you? And yet you look down on us!"

"Mentor Shenyong?"

The mushroom-headed boy following behind looked at Xia Chuan unexpectedly.

He was one of a group of player trainees who returned to a regular school after leaving the dungeon.

Since Master Kaminari said so, this Chronicles game might really be dangerous.

"Don't talk nonsense," the mushroom-headed boy quickly pulled his classmate back. "Instructor Shen Yong is a level five knight on the rankings, he wouldn't lie to us!"

"Mentor Shenyong?"

The students looked at Xia Chuan suspiciously, not remembering him much, but feeling that he was a little scary, more like a weird uncle who bullied students than a teacher.

"Hmph, so what if you're a level five knight?"

"The Dream Group said that since the player didn't actually die, all the data will be retained, and everything will return to normal once the game ends."

"Yes, didn't you also want to save those who disappeared?"

"Let's hurry, I heard someone discovered a game instance!"

"A monster of the Collapse Source Formation has appeared at the hospital!"

Xia Chuan watched as the boy awkwardly led his classmate away, and then touched his chin speechlessly.

Young people these days are really outrageous.

Let's end this farce quickly. This world isn't a dungeon; we can't let those guys run rampant.

……

"Sis, I'm home!"

The Sakurai family.

Sakurai Keikazu carried a bag of fruit home.

The game ahead was too dangerous. The more lively it was outside, the more uneasy he felt, but he didn't want to back down like that.

So I made a special trip back before the game started.

"sister?"

After receiving no response, Sakurai Keikazu looked into the room with a puzzled expression.

Fruit rolled down, and garbled images, like gibberish in a game, appeared before Sakurai's eyes. Before she could speak, she saw her sister collapse to the ground and disappear into nothingness.

"sister!"

"Haha, as expected of me! I finally succeeded!"

School villa.

Dan Kuroto jumped up, clutching a brand new cartridge. His sunken face was filled with excitement, and he even forgot about the fanged bat II being whipped behind him.

lv99 Extreme Extraordinary X Play Cartridge.

The highest level from the initial design stage.

This cartridge wasn't actually his creation; it was developed by the Kamen Riders in "Exide" to fight the zombie Phantom.

However, after studying it all night, he managed to replicate it.

"My talent truly surpasses everything; I am a god!"

"Shut up!"

The second-generation Fang Bat coldly lowered its wings and snatched the Ultimate Cartridge in one gulp.

"Hurry up and make the other cartridges too!"

"Don't worry," Dan Kuroto said, sitting back down reluctantly. "The other cartridges were my work anyway. Give me a little more time, and I'll finish them right away!"

What the hell? They actually sent this weird thing to monitor him.

Once he regains his freedom, he must reclaim the dignity that belongs to him.

Just wait, Shinji Kaminaga!

He remembers all the humiliation he has suffered!
