Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 472 Malicious Attack

into the night.

Fujiwara Saiji returned to school after a long absence, looking at the bustling freshman training hall with a nostalgic expression.

Nearly four years have passed in the blink of an eye. From wanting to surpass his brother and joining Class A in a daze, he has now finally been able to stand on his own and form a Level 4 team.

Unfortunately, many things have changed.

The Fujiwara Group has been completely forgotten, and the alliance is no longer what it used to be.

The world is changing every day, so fast that it feels increasingly unfamiliar to him.

Perhaps only at school could he find a brief moment of peace.

However, upon returning this time, it seems that the school is no longer as pure as it once was.

After Principal Tamura left, Instructor Kaminaga also completely retired, disappearing without a trace after taking on an honorary vice-principal position.

"Fujiwara-senpai."

Hosho Emu returned to the training hall with a hint of distress.

"Still no news from Kondo. Could it really be related to Decade, as the league said?"

"All I know is that Decade saved us, and more than once."

Fujiwara Saiji stepped forward and pressed down on Hosho Emu's shoulder.

He was well past the age of adolescent delusions, and his understanding of the league was far more complex than it seemed.

"Where are you going, senpai?" Hosho Emu asked, looking at Fujiwara as he walked out of the building, not quite understanding.

"I originally wanted to meet with Professor Kaminaga, but I received a new mission."

Fujiwara Saiji glanced at the time and hurriedly took his leave.

"Principal Tamura needs protection for a while, and we may need to contact you again if necessary."

"what?"

Emu Hosho scratched his head, staring blankly as Saiji Fujiwara rode off on his motorcycle.

"You're a true veteran. When will I ever have my own team?"

Thinking of his Knight System, Emu Hojo looked helpless.

Unlike the exploration team, the team knight system generally needs to maintain uniformity, but in his case, it seems that due to the previous game disease incident, the game driver is not very popular now.

Almost all the other trainees switched to other systems. The few game knights were either seniors or had been recruited by the alliance early on.

"Buzz!"

The locomotive departed the school base and headed towards the city through the drizzling night.

However, just as they were about to enter the main road, Fujiwara Saiji's gaze narrowed slightly, and he braked suddenly and swerved the car sideways.

At the crossroads under the dim light of the rain, a knight silently approached, his strange red and black energy spreading outwards as if it had a life of its own.

"Who are you……"

"call!"

The unfamiliar knight did not respond at all, like a walking ghost, and suddenly appeared behind Fujiwara Saiji with malice all around.

"Beep beep beep!"

"Clatter!"

The phone vibrated as it hit the ground, splashing water as the rider stepped on it with his right foot and crushed it.

Soon, only the broken remains of the phone and the motorcycle, which had also been knocking on its knees and was lying in the rain, remained on the spot.

"Royal bee capture complete."

"There's another Level 6 Rider, Kamen Rider W..."

"Fujiwara? Can you hear me? Feed me?"

Outside the A2 cordon, Hiroko Asami leaned against her car, her phone ringing incessantly.

I wanted to inquire about the mission progress, but I couldn't get in touch with them no matter what I tried.

Whether it's a telephone or a dedicated communication system for riders and motorcycles.

"Are they still on a mission?" Kazumi Takahashi asked uncertainly.

"Won't."

Hiroko Asami felt a dark cloud hanging over her heart.

Even when performing a task, there should be some feedback, at least not this busy signal.

It usually replies automatically, unless there's an emergency...

"Could someone have actually attacked the captain?"

Remembering Xia Chuan's instructions, Asami Hiroko subconsciously raised her head and looked around. Suddenly, a red and black incantation appeared in her eyes, and the patrolling knights surrounded her like ghosts.

In the darkness, pairs of glowing red knight eyes approached like demons crawling out of hell.

Kazumi Takahashi covered her mouth and nose in shock: "S-Senpai..."

"Get in the car quickly!"

Hiroko Asami's expression turned serious. As she pushed her partner behind her, she quickly summoned the W Double Belt, and two Gaia Memory Cores burst forth with green light.

"CYCLONE!" Gale

"JOKER!" Ace

"call--!"

The swirling winds blocked the oncoming malicious energy. Xia Chuan's consciousness descended, and after stretching his shoulders, he quietly surveyed the knight squads bathed in incantations around him.

It's Yak again.

It's really persistent; isn't there any way to completely get rid of it?

"Kaminaga?"

Kazumi Takahashi, who had taken refuge inside the car, tentatively asked a question. Before she could get a reply, her vision blurred and W-Kami-Naga instantly traversed the entire area, sending all the terrifying zombie riders flying and crashing down like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

So strong!

Is this a level 6 knight? I really envy Hiroko-senpai.

The synchronization is also ridiculously high, it doesn't feel like two people working together at all.

"Bang bang bang!"

Xia Chuan reappeared before the last knight landed, and the red and black runes behind him gathered, which he then destroyed with a single punch.

Despite not being a Knight of the same system, W's uniqueness still gives him the possibility of suppressing malice.

Moreover, Ark itself is already suppressed by this world, and its combat power can only rely on its carrier. These level 3 and 4 knights are far from enough.

"call!"

Xia Chuan flicked his hand lightly, and the surrounding whirlwind became even more violent. All the maliciously possessed knights instantly lost their strength and dispelled their transformations. The red and black spells also seemed to have lost their energy and went out of control.

A seemingly unwilling roar faded away in the darkness.

Yak...

Why did they target the people around him at this particular time? Was it a pure coincidence or was it aimed at him?

Xia Chuan did not leave immediately, but calmly gazed into the depths of the night.

He was certain he hadn't given himself away. In this world, the only person who had any suspicions about his identity was Hiroko Asami. With W as a tether, it was virtually impossible for anyone to bypass him and discover Hiroko's memories.

Hiroko herself would never reveal it.

Besides, the clone is a top secret, and now it's enough to dispel all doubts, at least it won't implicate him.

"Those guys have their eyes on you too."

Master Gasai appeared from the sidelines, seemingly unsurprised by the malicious rider's attack, calmly watching with his arms crossed.

When Xia Chuan turned his head to look, a stack of sealed photos was thrown over by Daoist Wagatsuma.

"This should be the information you wanted. They happen to have it in their lab. The guy who impersonated Kuuga and committed murder was known as the Alternate Rider."

Xia Chuan reached out and steadily caught the photo, then glanced at Daoist Agasa with surprise.

It does indeed match the characteristics of the investigation target, but the photos only show report documents and do not contain any specific research data.

He had no expectations at all, but Ba Niu actually found out something.

Despite the seemingly trivial nature of the document, it can still reveal the alliance's intentions: there's a high probability that they're establishing a connection with the Time-Origin dungeon.

"Could you help me get a spot in the dungeon three days from now?" Daoist Agasa frowned, turning his head away and ignoring Natsukawa's gaze. "That's my only request."

"That's possible," Xia Chuan said calmly, "but are you sure you want to join the Alliance Exploration Team? You should be aware of the risks..."

"So what if it's risky? I need to increase my strength."

Master Izayoi gave a self-deprecating laugh and stared intently at Xia Chuan W's figure.

"Kaminaga, I hate you because you always waste the power that fate has given you. You may not know, but Professor Tsugami was once my teacher. I was there at his funeral, and it was after that that I went to great lengths to obtain the title of knight!"

"Tsugami?" Natsukawa's memory returned to the beginning.

At that time, he didn't pay attention to anything else.

"I don't blame you for not saving Professor Tsugami, I just want you to know how important those wasted powers are to someone like me."

Suddenly, the Taoist priest turned away, looking somewhat disheartened.

"Be careful lately, many knights have disappeared, including RX and Birth Knight who were already level 6."
