Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 466 Level 8.9, Knight's Limit

"Bang----!"

Space collapsed, countless floating islands in the small world melted away, and the ensuing crimson shockwave crashed into the golden shield.

Kondo Isami, like an ostrich protecting the weakest part of his armor, lay prone on the last remaining floating island, surrounded by a buzzing sound, unable to hear anything anyone else was shouting.

The world before my eyes was a blood-red extinction, as if it had once been destroyed. Fortunately, at such a distance, it was not directly annihilated. What I saw was only the aftershocks of the Qilubas explosion.

Before long, the tremors subsided, and the waves of earth blown up by the storm began to recede. Kondo Isami's fear of death finally lessened and eventually disappeared completely.

Only after getting up from the dust did she realize that the golden shield had been shattered, and the Martian princess, who was possessed by Misora ​​Ishido, was nowhere to be found. Only the golden bracelet on her wrist remained, silently sinking into the dust, no longer having its former luster.

The exploration team knights who didn't have time to dodge also detached from their transformations and fell in strange positions in front of them.

I wonder if he's alright...

"Whoosh!"

A gentle breeze of unknown origin swept across the battlefield, causing Kondo Isami to shiver involuntarily and look around in surprise.

It was no longer a spacetime rift that could be destroyed at any moment; it seemed as if they had returned to Earth.

Not far away, Dark Kiva bent down and picked up a Red Spider Knight card, then shook it off with a hint of disdain.

"Gurgle!"

Kondo Isami secretly groaned, wanting to play dead and lie back down, but found that Dark Kiva had vanished in a flash, disappearing without a trace as if it were an illusion.

After standing in the ruins for a while to make sure there was no danger, Kondo Isami moved his aching legs and ran quickly forward to check on the others.

These bastards seem to be faking their deaths too.

……

Nascita Coffee Shop.

Xia Chuan glanced at the busy Shi Dong and his daughter, who were attending to guests, took a small sip of coffee, and began to examine the blank watch face that had suddenly appeared in his hand.

This thing seems to be an item from the final dungeon, "Zi-O," but right now it looks like a toy and doesn't seem special at all. It seems to be connected to the "Zi-O" dungeon that hasn't appeared yet, but I can't find any specific clues.

Besides that, there are only a few Knight cards.

Creation Knight Cards, Croz Cards, and Knight Cards of the Blood Clan.

Of the first two cards, only Creation Rider is truly useful to him.

The main rider card represents the world, while the secondary rider card is slightly less important. Duplicate cards of the same world type are not very meaningful.

Especially for him now, these knight systems, after excluding additional factors, can only be used to boost his prestige.

This is inevitable, as the strong are almost all inherently powerful, and this becomes more pronounced as their level increases; only a few choose the Knight System.

Qilubas's transformation was nothing more than something he casually conjured up for battle.

Of the last three cards, Blood, Ebert, and Qilubas, the only decent one is the Ebert card, which he had been focusing on, as it maintained its normal level even after its ultimate power was depleted.

Blood and Qirubas Knight cards are a bit lacking, not even reaching level 6.

Unfortunately, Pandora's Box did not fall; instead, it disappeared into the spacetime rift along with the demise of Qirubas.

His long-cherished desire for interstellar travel is unlikely to come true. Regardless of whether it can be used in this world, he no longer has the opportunity to try it.

Worlds cleared: 15

Lifespan: 39/10000

Physique: All Rider Transformation lv8.9 (lv9.9)

Limit exceeded: 3400 (4800+)

Knight Challenge: Natsukawa (decade), Shinji Kaminaga, Hiroko Asami (W), Michinaga Gasai (Hagane), Maya Kimishima (Danki), Ryota Murai (Kurokuga), Goto (Yusha), Konan (Larc Crossbow), Isami Kondo (Gaimu Lychee)

……

Xia Chuan noticed the system panel, which had always seemed to have little presence.

The changes are not significant.

Their lifespan has remained unchanged since it reached 10,000 years.

The physique level increased from lv8.5 to lv8.9. This universe does indeed have an upper limit. However, it is unexpected that it is at its peak. In theory, it should have been increased to lv10.3 (body + ultimate knight card).

"Is this the limit?"

The Knight dungeon is still not enough.

Right now, the only thing to do is to raise the basic level as quickly as possible.

"Um?"

Xia Chuan, who was about to close the panel, suddenly stopped looking.

His representative Rider system seems to be defaulted to Decade, but in reality, he is not Decade at all. He is more like an enhanced version of Decade combined with his secondary rider.

Besides, he doesn't even have a Decade Rider form yet.

"Kondo Isami is on the list..."

Xia Chuan's gaze fell to the last spot, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He turned around and found that RX Minami Kotaro's name had been removed from the list at some point.

What's going on?

Xia Chuan frowned, thinking of the white-clad agents who had hurriedly fled after he dealt with Qilubas.

This time, it seems the alliance isn't just targeting him; the exploration team has also become a target.

What exactly is going on in this world?

Is it related to the spaceship that suddenly appeared?

"Esteemed guest," Ishidou Souichi greeted warmly, bringing over a pot of coffee, "would you like to try our newest magical coffee? It's made from miraculously grown coffee beans, maybe even from outer space! It tastes absolutely amazing!"

"Yeah?"

Xia Chuan glanced at Shi Dong Soichi quietly.

"Have a drink to try."

"Okay! I guarantee you'll want to drink it again!"

"Chief!"

"Chief!"

Kiryu Sento and Banjou Ryuga rushed into the coffee shop at almost the same time, bumping into Saruwatari Kazumi, who was walking out of the shop in a daze, and both of them fell flat on their backs.

"Ikkai?"

"You guys...?"

Saruwatari Kazumi looked at Sento and the other two who recognized him with surprise.

When he regained consciousness, he was already in a coffee shop, but no one around him remembered anything about Pandora's Box. Even Ishidou Souichi, who had been possessed by Eberl, had completely returned to a normal life.

History seems to have embarked on a different path of peace starting with the exploration of Mars.

Prime Minister Himuro didn't die, and the bearded man obediently stayed by his father's side as the prime minister's secretary.

His former comrades from Beidu are now laughing and joking around with him.

Mimi Tan is still the same as ever, still so cute and charming...

"You haven't lost your memory?"

Both Sento and Banjō were surprised.

Unlike them, who exist alone in this world like outsiders, Kazumi Saruwatari seems to be a local.

"What exactly happened?"

"I don't know either," Saruwatari Kazumi said blankly. "I thought I was the only one who had the memories. Oh, right, Director..."

"Director?"

Sento and Banjou turned their heads together, only to find that the seat where Natsukawa had been sitting was now empty, with only an empty coffee cup remaining.

"It's gone..."

"Whoosh!"

Xia Chuan walked out of the coffee shop invisibly, looked back at the bewildered knights, and prepared to temporarily close the instance.

Recruiting War Rabbits isn't urgent; he's more concerned about things in this world right now.

The only regret is that they didn't get the fusion card in the end; miracles don't happen that easily.

In reality, the combined card is only slightly stronger than Blood, but what he really values ​​is its combined nature.

"goodbye."

"Whoosh—!"

Small World Ruins.

Kondo Isami, with a similarly complex gaze, bids a final farewell to the world of "Tron: Build & Run".

Did you gain anything from this dungeon run?

Of course, I did, since I got to complete the game for free.

However, because the level of participation is so low, and players are essentially portrayed as victims, the benefits of completing the game are negligible.

Only Fujiwara no Saiji and a few others improved to 4.9, and as a level 5 knight, his stats remained unchanged even with the decimal point.

Not only did they gain nothing, they almost lost their lives here.

"Let's go."

Kondo Isami shook his head, composed himself, and prepared to exit the dungeon with the others. However, when he turned around, he found that everyone else had already disappeared, and only he remained quietly in the same spot.

Where are they?

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Kondo Isami's face. His lips trembled as he stared at the empty ruins of the dungeon, a chill running down his spine.

There's no response when I try to exit.

That damn Decade shut down the instance so quickly...

"Come back! I'm here!!"
