Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 632 Game Space

Two days later.

Horii finally finished a set of Alliance Armor data and immediately found Shinjo, who was preparing to head to the computer game city.

"As per your request, I temporarily abandoned the space technology and the corresponding transformation technology, and finally cracked the enhancement data inside."

After handing the packaged data files to Shinjo, Horii yawned repeatedly.

"You should really thank me; I even canceled a date with my girlfriend for this."

"I'm grateful, but could you please stop mentioning your girlfriend in front of me all the time?"

Xincheng carefully put away the data disk, feeling as if he had completed a major task.

As his human form and the anchor point of the instance, he could sense Xia Chuan's thoughts to some extent and knew that Xia Chuan valued the people in the Knights.

"I'll treat you to a meal another day to properly thank you."

"Forget about treating me," Horii scoffed. "I want to take Chizuru to Maya's concert. If you're so capable, help me snag two tickets."

"The Maya Concert."

Xincheng thought about it and didn't refuse.

Anyway, he was going to help his sister Mayumi get tickets.

"Okay, we'll all go together then."

"New City team member," Norizuki, the computer genius from the Victory team, stammered, "can you take me to the arcade? Actually, I really like computer games, but I haven't had the chance because of work."

"No way," said Xin Chengtou Avenue, "I had someone else mentor me, and even if I wanted to, it wouldn't be possible... Ye Rui, aren't you very good at this? Getting an invitation yourself shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Don't even think about it!

Megumi pressed down on Nozue's shoulder.

"The base's security system is still waiting for your maintenance; you're not going anywhere!"

"Huh?" Ye Rui clutched his head in disappointment. "No one can hack into the system, so why do we keep maintaining it?"

"This is just in case. Okay, back to work!"

"cough."

Xincheng lowered his head to avoid eye contact.

He didn't know exactly what Xia Chuan was doing, but he was sure he had hacked into the base system many times.

It is said to leave no trace.

"Then I'll be going now."

"Come back soon!" Megumi warned with a look of her eyes. "There's a ton of stuff going on lately, and the all-out war with the Lightning Men is about to begin."

"Are they going to eliminate Lightning Man?"

"There's no way around it. Although we've considered coexistence, the reality is that the conflict is irreconcilable. The number of plane crashes keeps increasing, and we don't know when another Gazort will appear."

"understand."

Xincheng quickened his pace and boarded the plane.

He had just wiped out the Kirieloids a few days ago, so he really didn't have much to say.

Coexistence is an ideal, but ultimately we must consider the issue from a human perspective.

A normal person wouldn't prioritize the Lightning Man.

"call out!"

The transport plane landed at the Gulf Dispatch Center, just like a few days ago. The only difference was that this time, Xincheng specially borrowed a car, since he wasn't the only one going to the game center.

"Why is that brat here too?"

After meeting up with Emu Hosho and the others, Shinjo was surprised to find Shin Asuka also there.

Is it appropriate to bring him along?

"It couldn't be more suitable," Hojo Emu explained. "It would be strange if no bird followed him. Takumi will protect him."

"What exactly are you doing there?"

Shinjo muttered something strange, but didn't chase away Asuka Shin, who was making faces at him, because he was sent back to his consciousness space by Natsukawa the next moment.

I didn't dare ask any more questions and just lay down obediently.

After everyone was seated, Watari drove again. Asami Hiroko and Fujiwara Saiji did not come over, seemingly having received other tasks from TPC.

"Emu," Onoue Takumi asked curiously, "what do you think that place is gathering so many gaming experts for? Is it for game promotion?"

"Many gaming experts are also computer experts," said Emu Hojo, as he opened his handheld computer and immersed himself in a game. "Moreover, these games have special designs, as if they are intentionally selecting talents in this field, mainly for technical exchanges."

G2 region.

The gaming city wasn't far from the bay, and soon a cool, high-tech urban area came into view.

It looks like I've stepped into a futuristic fantasy world.

"So this is it," Takumi Oogami exclaimed as he exited the vehicle upon arrival. "I've seen it before... Is this arcade really that rich?"

Xia Chuan didn't interrupt, but continued to expand his perception.

The magnificent building complex in front of us does not actually exist; rather, it is a materialization of some kind of illusory force.

It was as if the entire area had become a gaming domain.

That biological computer not only possessed consciousness and was not simply artificial intelligence, but had mutated into some kind of dimensional life form.

From the moment he got into the car, he discovered that the vehicle's system had been hacked, and the attacker's target might be the Game Knight system on Emu Hojo's body.

"This is?"

Emu Hosho also sensed the presence of the game world, and hesitated for a moment before getting off the bus with Natsukawa.

"Mr. Shinjo..."

"Welcome to virtual reality. We hope you enjoy the game."

An electronic female voice suddenly rang out from the arcade. There were no staff members, and not even a single person could be seen. In an instant, the scene before everyone's eyes changed dramatically.

It felt like entering a virtual game lobby, surrounded by various game screens.

"What happened?"

In a fright, Onoue tried to escape with Asuka Shin, only to find that there was no way out. Even Wataru, who was left in the car to wait for them, was pulled into the game world as well.

Is this place a trap?

"It's not a trap, but you'd better not make any rash moves. If you encounter any trouble, go out and ask for help first."

Xia Chuan walked towards a game screen.

The other person's behavior changed because of his arrival.

It's less of a trap and more of a defense.

"Mr. Shinjo?"

Takumi Onoue was startled and turned to see Natsukawa's figure disappear into the light screen.

This is too chaotic.

"What should we do?" Onoue Takumi looked at Hojo Emu, who was acting as the temporary captain. "Should we teleport away?"

"Wait a little longer."

Hojo Emu's tone was tinged with excitement; he barely managed to suppress the urge to challenge the game.

Staring at the light screen where Xia Chuan disappeared, some startling guesses suddenly came to mind.

What Fujiwara Saiji said might all be true.

Their mentors were always there, silently protecting them.

"I want to confirm one thing," Emu Hojo said, forcing himself to regain his composure. "You can leave first and report what happened here to the Victory Team."

"what?"

Onoue Takumi was stunned for a moment, and before he knew it, Asuka Shin was moving closer to the game screen on the side.

As if possessed, the once clever bird stood before the light screen like a walking corpse.

"Asuka? Come back, Asuka!"

"Don't go over there!"

Several people rushed forward in alarm to stop him, but it was too late. They could only watch helplessly as Asuka Shin's body twisted and was sucked into the light screen.

"Be careful, stay where you are no matter what you see!" Hosho Emu looked around, his face grave.

The game space is cunning; it can project things they are familiar with, hypnotizing and even brainwashing players.

Captain Asami and Fujiwara Saiji appeared in several light screens, seemingly trying to lure them into the game.

"The captain and the others can't possibly be captured by this thing!"

Takuya Onoue saw the projection on the light screen: "But what about Asuka?"

"I'll go save him."

Emu Hojo gathered the Rider Driver at his waist, took a deep breath and gathered all his energy, as if he had returned to the Rider era.

"Although they are a little different, I am confident that I can beat any game, and Mr. Shinjo is in it too. Letting Mr. Shinjo in was its biggest mistake."
