Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 435 Evolution Driver

Dongdu, Pier A9.

Entering serious mode, Ebert acted swiftly, continuing to conquer the "container" Ryuga Banjou while using the Prime Minister of Tokyo as a hostage. In just a few days, he successfully retrieved the Evolution Driver that Katsuragi had once hidden away.

"Finally, finally got it back! Haha!"

Eberl held the recovered Evolution Driver in his hands as if it were a precious treasure, ignoring his frightened adopted daughter across from him. His whole body trembled with excitement, and an inhuman smile appeared on his face.

"Evol-Driver!"

Are you ready?

"Transform!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

With an uncontrollable smile, Ebert turned the belt lever, and a transformation effect similar to that of Rider Build appeared around him. Energy materialized into a 3D printed structure, and after the front and rear armor suits were constructed, they combined and donned the suits under the pull of the rotating energy ball.

Ebolt, Cobra Form, Stage 1.

Despite the fact that the possessed Ishido Soichi was not dangerous enough, the Ebert Knight form still exuded a powerful aura like a dark cloud, as if the power of the universe could be seen, which was obviously not on the same level as the Knight systems of everyone present.

"This is Kamen Rider Evol?" The short-haired woman's mouth went dry, and she couldn't help but take a step back.

The data retrieved from the research institute included detailed information about the Evolution Driver and the extraterrestrial life form Eberst.

The origin of the Knight System...

"Hmph, although there were some twists and turns, the goal was ultimately achieved."

Ebert waved his hand and lazily walked toward Kamen Rider Bully Rogue, son of the Prime Minister of Tokyo, Himuro Gentoku, who was attacking him.

Despite being nothing more than a defeated and abandoned dog, he actually betrayed Zhan Tu and his group, almost ruining his plans.

"Bang!"

Grabbing the bully's outstretched fist and throwing it away, Ebert suddenly transformed into a series of flashing afterimages.

"Perfect for warming up."

"What?"

The bully had barely regained his footing when he was attacked from all sides. Sparks flew from his armor, plasma spread throughout his body, and the counterattack he had painstakingly organized was easily dodged.

You can't even touch Eberl.

"Is this your true face, Blood Lurker!"

"You're useless now."

Eberl coldly kicked out, knocking the bully down and breaking his transformation. The kick also left a long trench in the concrete ground.

As an energy ball condensed in Eberl's hand, the Prime Minister of Tokyo, who had been protected behind him, broke free from the short-haired woman with a start and used his back to block the energy ball that was being shot at his son. He was instantly shattered in two.

"Gentoku, the nation... is entrusted to you..."

"Bang--!"

"dad!"

Himuro Gentoku stared blankly as his father's mangled body exploded, the blood mist dissipating and evaporating, without even reacting when Ebolt approached again.

"Tsk tsk, that's pathetic, they've been reduced to dust."

Ebert wiped the burning blood off his body, ignoring Himuro Gentoku, and casually glanced at Sento and the others who had come to his aid.

"Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to help him deal with his rebellious son, but the father ended up taking the fall for him."

"You're Blood Lurker?!" Kiryu Sento's eyes narrowed sharply.

That's all in the past.

Eberl stretched out his body with satisfaction.

"I am now Kamen Rider Evol, and I can obtain the true power of Pandora's Box through the Evolution Energy Bottle and Ultimate Driver, which only I can use."

……

"Done! Haha, I really am a god!!"

At the same time.

Hokuto Faust Institute.

As Dan Kuroto's smug laughter echoed in Xia Chuan's mind, he opened the test bench. After a large amount of cooling gas dissipated, a belt device that was almost a complete replica of the Evolution Driver came into view.

The main body is dark red, paired with gold and blue parts.

Although it's a knock-off adapted for humans, its stats far exceed those of the Creator system.

However, according to Shinobu Katsuragi's design, it seems to have some hidden transformation conditions.

In the original series, Namba Heavy Industries scientist Nariaki Utsumi transformed into Kamen Rider Mad Rogue villain using the "Bat Fullbottle" and "Engine Fullbottle".

Xia Chuan stepped forward and took out the pseudo-evolution driver.

"Click!"

Katsuragi Shinobu has disappeared.

After wandering around for a while, Xia Chuan casually picked up two full bottles and fastened the pseudo-evolution driver to his waist.

"Evol-Driver!"

Are you ready?

The startup process went very smoothly, but the subsequent energy transfer showed no reaction whatsoever, as if it were just a toy with only sound and light effects.

Although it is said to be designed for humans, those who transform still need to undergo Eberst genetic surgery.

The reason why these knight systems in the world of Rider Build are so powerful seems to be that they all rely on the power of Pandora's Box.

The same applies to both originals and imitations; the difference lies in how much power can be mobilized.

All the Riders have transformed and are starting to miss their original forms.

"No, is that not allowed?" Dan Kuroto's laughter stopped abruptly, like a goose being grabbed by the neck.

"You also need the qualification to transform."

Xia Chuan shook his head and put down the pseudo-evolution driver.

Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. Dan Kuroto is indeed not suitable for developing other Rider systems. He is already a genius for completing the design of Katsuragi Shinobu in such a short time.

At least we can report back to Eberl without any problem.

What he needs isn't a pseudo-evolution driver; that won't enhance his strength. What's truly powerful is Eberst's belt.

"etc!"

Tan Lidou's heart skipped a beat as he realized that Xia Chuan wanted to seal him away again, and his expression changed drastically.

"I still have a use... That's right, I can help you develop an evolution cartridge, an evolution cartridge that allows the Honkai Entities to transform!"

"What's the use?" Natsukawa's response was indifferent. "I don't have any faulty drivers here..."

"This lab is fully equipped; we can easily manufacture it secretly by hand," Dan Kuroto said anxiously. "I don't know what you're planning in that world, but the Evolution Gadget can definitely help, trust me!"

Xia Chuan paused.

He doesn't really need the game knight system; by the time it's handcrafted, his true form will probably be ready to descend.

And why didn't he just find a container that could use the pseudo-evolution driver to possess instead?

However, it's not entirely out of the question to use it as insurance.

If replicating Ebolt's power fails in the future, collecting data to upgrade Dan Kuroto's game knight system would be a good option.

"Can you fool Katsuragi Shinobu?" Natsukawa asked rhetorically.

"It should... be okay, right?" Dan Kuroto's face lit up with joy at the prospect of not being sealed away, but then he rested his chin on his hand uncertainly. "Besides, don't you have a research institute? You can build them separately and then take them back to assemble them."

"You should develop the evolution cartridge first. The Tokyo Research Institute is attracting more attention than this place."

Natsukawa temporarily allowed Dan Reito to continue his activities.

He could smell this guy's rebellious nature even from another world away; he wondered what he was up to now.

That's too naive.

During the time he spent in the game instance, he truly reached level eight, and his combat power had increased by an unknown amount compared to before.

"call!"

Xia Chuan turned around, placed the pseudo-evolution driver into its special container, and left the research room. His gaze narrowed slightly, and the next moment he looked thoughtfully towards the observation room next to the test field.

Inside the base, it seemed they could receive broadcast footage from Tokyo. Shinobu Katsuragi was intently focused on the screen, watching Ebert's first battle after his transformation. His fingers were unconsciously clenched until they turned white, and his breathing gradually became heavier.

"Ebolt..."
