Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 362 The Final Round 2

into the night.

Tokyo, which had been in chaos for several days, has returned to its former glory, even more bustling than before, as if it had completely weathered the crisis.

However, undercurrents still flow in places unseen.

The Chronicles is not yet complete, and the missing people have not yet returned.

Everything depends on the final boss level.

Xia Chuan was invited by the Alliance to enter the city. He walked thoughtfully to the Alliance building.

Beneath the calm surface lies an even more terrifying crisis.

This world has never suffered such a serious instance of dungeon invasion before. The power of a game virus is far greater than any "missed" memory.

This is far less than the invasions of the Gurongi, the Fangblood, the undead, and other strange creatures of the past.

Its terrifying ability to spread like a plague means that, unless high-level aliens intervene, humanity is currently powerless to resist it.

Even destroying Tokyo, the place of origin, might not stop the spread of the game virus.

The alliance probably didn't completely abandon Tokyo for this reason, but instead gathered most of the high-ranking knights and tried to clear the Chronicle with the power of the knights.

At this moment, apart from RX, who has once again disappeared without a trace, all the powerful knights have accepted the mission.

I'm not quite sure if the Alliance knows about Dan Masamune's reset ability.

Without an invincible player's save-save ability, no amount of knights can change the ending.

Another question is the true way to complete the game's dungeons: is it necessary to complete the "Chronicles" or simply defeat Dan Masamune?

The Chronicles is ultimately just a game within the Exyde instance.

Xia Chuan pondered as he looked at yet another Knights team entering the Alliance building.

The data he saved was from before the "Pallard" level, so it would be quite troublesome to start over.

If we only need to deal with Dan Masamune, then there's not much to worry about.

"Kaminaga!"

A shout came before Xia Chuan entered the building. Goto, whose face looked much more weathered, walked out from the corner with a complicated expression. His suit made him look like a down-on-his-luck middle-aged man.

Faced with Natsukawa's probing gaze, Goto felt as if he had returned to the time when they first met.

Xia Chuan seems to have never changed.

"You said anything is possible," Goto said, after thinking for a moment, he picked up a backpack and threw it at Natsukawa. "Then let me see if you can actually beat 'Chronicle'."

Xia Chuan subconsciously activated his telekinesis, but after realizing what was happening, he still reached out and grabbed his backpack.

In addition to the beginner's level completion certificate stolen from Team 01, the backpack also contained a Game Knight's universal player belt and two Chronicles mass-produced cartridges.

"Even without the main control cartridge, you can transform into Chronos," Goto explained with his back turned before leaving. "The secret is to have enough Hakugen antibodies. Dan Masamune is like that because he has complete antibodies."

Natsukawa did not respond, silently watching Goto's figure disappear into the darkness.

He knew, of course, that he could transform into Chronos without using the main control cartridge.

In Exide, there is a game knight who has a large number of antibodies due to long-term transformation battles. After the final stage is opened, the opponent successfully transforms into Chronos by using two Chronicles cartridges.

Although it couldn't unleash its full power, it still managed to transform.

However, one of the Chronicles cartridges used at the time was not an ordinary cartridge; its original owner was a Chronicles player who had obtained proof of completion of all games and thus had the final game qualification.

According to the game's setting, in the final round, when the player activates the cartridge, they will be simultaneously corrupted by all the Collapse Virus. If they can withstand it, they will directly transform into Chronos.

Normally, the Chronicle cartridge will not trigger all the Collapse virus.

Xia Chuan turned his gaze to the clearance certificate card in his backpack.

He possesses the ability to transform into any Rider, so there are no restrictions on his transformations, but he still needs to obtain the actual transformation items.

Goto is likely to be disappointed now, as he can't do this kind of Chronos transformation.

"You may have extracted a lot of information from Dan Masamune, but it's still not comprehensive enough."

Xia Chuan shook his head secretly.

Even if you can transform, you still can't use that to complete "Chronicles".

The ordinary Chronos is no match for the game god Chronos.

Alliance meeting room.

Many knight teams gathered together. When Xia Chuan arrived, Master Wagatsuma and his group were explaining the situation in detail.

Many knights, including Fujiwara Saiji and his school-affiliated knights, have been mostly in various dungeons recently and are unaware of the crisis Tokyo is facing.

"God's Eternal Mentor!"

"tutor!"

The students noticed Xia Chuan first, and hurriedly called out to him after Master Izuma finished speaking.

"Is Instructor Kaminari also participating in this mission?"

"It's been a long time since I fought alongside my mentor."

"Last time or when was it?"

"I'm just here to make up the numbers." Xia Chuan's gaze swept over everyone.

Three years later, the trainees had generally become capable level four or five knights, and Haruto had even officially returned as a level six knight.

What's remarkable is that they haven't forgotten their original aspirations, and their relationship remains harmonious, even stronger than when they were still in school.

After nodding slightly, Xia Chuan took out the backpack left by Goto and handed it to the students: "Take these, they might come in handy."

"This is?"

Sakurai Keikazu took the backpack in surprise, grabbed one of the clearance certificates, and his expression suddenly trembled.

"It belonged to Team 01, wasn't it stolen?"

"It was Goto who made the move," Natsukawa casually reminded him.

"A brave man?"

"Those people from Team 01 did say that the hero lost himself because he used the level 50 cartridge."

"Mr. Goto actually..."

The students remained silent for a short while, and did not utter a sound even when Master Izuma and his group arrived.

Starting with the God Train incident in "Den-O", Goto has always been seen as a reliable older man who likes to take care of his juniors.

But now he seems like a different person.

Sakurai Kagekazu's joy vanished upon seeing the clearance certificate, and he opened his mouth with a fluctuating expression.

He understood the reasons for Goto's change better than anyone else.

His sister was also his most important family member.

He was almost taken advantage of by Dan Masamune at the time.

But isn't Dan Masamune already dead? Where did this level 50 cassette tape come from?

Thinking of this, Sakurai Kagekazu couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Master Kaminaga, isn't Mr. Goto coming?"

"He left after giving me the backpack," Natsukawa glanced at Master Wagatsuma and the others, "He probably has his own plans."

This time, Kondo Isami surprisingly did not participate.

He didn't seem to use any particularly strong methods.

"Anyway," Nagato said, looking at Natsukawa's furrowed brows and then letting out a sigh of relief as he looked at his backpack, "we've finally got all the walkthrough cards. Putting them together will open the final level."

"Shall we start now?"

"Wait, don't put them together yet," Xia Chuan interrupted. "It's best to choose a suitable battle location tomorrow."

Now is not the time for a decisive battle. We must wait until the shuttle has cooled down completely, otherwise he wouldn't have come here in person.

"That's true. It would be troublesome if the God of Games appeared here."

The others didn't doubt it; on the contrary, they were somewhat grateful.

"The game realm of the superior Collapse Source Body merges with reality. The Game God may also be like this. It would be more appropriate to choose the suburbs as the battle location."
