Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 469 Lockdown Zone

"Tick-tock!"

A2 lockdown zone.

While Natsukawa's main body was still going through the formalities outside with Asami Hiroko, the mimic clone had already taken action.

It seemed like it had just rained; the streets were flooded, and the air was unusually dark and cold.

The pedestrians on the roadside swayed and leaned against the wire fence, their faces pale, their eyes sunken, and their pupils unfocused and lifeless. Only when they saw Xia Chuan did they suddenly reveal a dangerous, beast-like aura, and their eyes turned bloodthirsty, as if they might pounce at any moment.

Showa weirdo...

As the second largest restricted area after Amazons, A2 is outside the Alliance's control due to its special background, making it a chaotic area with a fragile order and a mixed bag of people.

Although the residents here are mainly Showa-era oddballs, there are also quite a few ordinary humans. Some are wanted by the authorities, some have lost everything in the outside world, and some are simply abandoned by society. They stay for various reasons.

I've heard that the restricted area harbors a large number of private research institutes, as well as a free black market and many special factories. Some of the more normal-looking weirdos even work and live like humans.

"roar!"

The strange man crouched down and roared, but before he could even launch an attack, his entire body burst into flames. Even rolling into a puddle couldn't extinguish the fire, and in the blink of an eye, he howled and turned into a pool of black ash.

Xia Chuan stepped across the puddles, and the strange men who had been spying in the shadows fled in panic.

Soon, a market-like street came into view.

Unlike the gloomy surroundings, this place is much more lively, with strange people and ordinary people maintaining basic order.

Aside from the harsher environment, in some aspects it's not much different from remote areas outside.

Seeing is believing, and Xia Chuan certainly had his eye opened.

Because he was too focused on evolving the dungeon, he paid far less attention to the world around him, only occasionally checking the news at the cafeteria, and gradually seemed to become somewhat disconnected.

I never imagined that the locked-down area would actually develop into this state.

If it weren't for the attack he had just suffered, and the occasional sight of corpses and remains in the dark corners, he would hardly have realized he was in a restricted area.

At least on the surface, most weirdos are not much different from ordinary people.

Surprised, Xia Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

The rider who resembled "Kuuga" disappeared here.

Ignoring the barely perceptible wariness of the people around him, Xia Chuan wandered aimlessly through the strange street, and soon reappeared in a deserted area.

The strange man here seems to be very sensitive to unfamiliar faces, and in just a few moments, he seems to have spread his news.

"call!"

The sound of swallowing saliva echoed from the darkness, as if a terrifying monster had crawled out of human skin and cast several huge black shadows on the wall at the street corner. However, before it could actually appear, it suddenly twisted and howled in the flames. It lasted a little longer than the wandering monster before, but it still turned into puddles of black ash.

The Level 3 weirdo seems to be the strongest person in this gathering area.

but……

Xia Chuan used his telekinesis to lock onto the aura of the Level 4 monster fleeing in panic in the distance. He stomped his feet on the ground and burst into super speed, quickly chasing after it in a few flashes.

"Whoosh!"

Sensing that there was no movement behind him, the strange man ran away at high speed without turning his head, his many eyes filled with terror.

All dead!

The ones being targeted are not human knights, but those high and mighty alien life forms!

"Damn it, can't they even tell if someone's human or not? I hope they haven't spotted me. I need to find Lord Dada for help right away!"

"Whoosh!"

The multi-eyed monster panted as he made his way through the dark streets, which would have been extremely dangerous for ordinary humans, until he reached a dilapidated factory and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But something seemed to have happened inside the factory at that moment, as a sudden explosion of battle broke the silence.

Did the other party find the factory beforehand?

The man with many eyes was suddenly startled.

This is Lord Dada's factory. What kind of ruthless creature dares to cause trouble for Lord Dada?

We can't go in.

escape……

"Bang!"

Xia Chuan punched the head of the multi-eyed monster, used his telekinesis to block the black blood spurting from its severed neck, and calmly strode into the dilapidated factory.

The grotesque head rolled silently to the ground, its face still showing confusion and astonishment. Its vision was blurred as it stared at the headless body that had collapsed to the ground. The exoskeleton of the head shattered and then turned into a cloud of blood mist.

"Bang! Bang!"

An even more violent commotion came from inside the factory. No one noticed the dead multi-eyed monster outside; they all seemed to be drawn to the battle inside.

Xia Chuan was surprised to sense a familiar aura. He leaped onto the roof of the factory and was astonished to find that the one being attacked was actually Kamen Rider Bull.

As one of the few level 6 knights, the Bull has not appeared for quite some time, apparently because he has entered the restricted area.

Out of curiosity, Xia Chuan hid himself and watched from the spot.

The monsters attacking them were mostly level 4, and Bull Bull had no problem dealing with them for the time being, though he looked a little disheveled.

That's how it is with the Extreme Fox Knight; without suitable items, even at level 6, the base stats only increase slightly, and the monster-fighting effect hardly changes.

When he was at level 6, even if there were many level 4 monsters, they would be instantly killed, and he would never be in such a difficult battle as Ba Niu.

For the Bull, the benefits of level 6 may all be concentrated in the enhanced immortality effect. Endurance and physical strength may be improved by breaking the limits, but it is obviously not enough to bring about a leap forward like the riders in "Riders Build".

"Sizzle!"

Suddenly, a human figure caught Xia Chuan's attention.

A horse-faced man appeared out of nowhere in the corner, aiming a special energy gun at the frenzied bull, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Faced with the moths-to-a-flame Level 4 monsters, Ba Niu unleashed a flurry of attacks, barely managing to escape the encirclement by stepping over the corpses scattered on the ground. He had no energy left to defend himself against anything else, and by the time he realized what was happening, he had already been locked onto by the horse-faced man's energy gun.

"Whoosh!"

Xia Chuan leaped off the roof and immediately kicked away the barrel of the energy gun.

A white beam of light grazed the side of the bull and struck a strange man. The next moment, the strange man screamed and shrank back into the energy gun.

A bio-shrinking gun?

"What happened?"

Ba Niu snapped out of his daze and broke out in a cold sweat. While wondering about Xia Chuan's identity, he coldly glanced at the horse-faced man who had rolled over and gotten up.

He was almost shrunk down and captured.

The horse-faced man distanced himself from Xia Chuan, his gaze malevolent: "Who are you?!"

"You were looking for me, weren't you? Well, here I am."

Xia Chuan shattered the energy gun with a flick of his wrist, and the shuttle belt on his abdomen appeared amidst the convergence of light streams, automatically inserting the Kuu-I card.

"Transformation."

"Whoosh!"

Kuuga's red-eyed outline covered Natsukawa's face, flashed briefly, and then instantly condensed into full-body armor, directly entering Blackbody Ultimate Mode.

Kuuga is one of the few Kamen Riders whose strength spans a wide range. Compared to when he fought Daguba, he is now many times stronger. Even his clones can unleash amazing power, and he was enveloped by an incredible aura as soon as he appeared in the factory area.

"call--!"

"Ugh!"

Under the oppressive dark clouds, all the strange creatures were engulfed in flames, struggling in agony as they crashed into things. They wouldn't be burned to death immediately, but this only made the scene more terrifying.

Ba Niu's body was tense, and his arm gripping the zombie weapon trembled slightly.

What level of knight is this?

They're on the same list, but they seem to belong to completely different worlds.
