Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 99 Dragonfly

Tokyo.

As the park gradually came into view in the early morning, a well-proportioned woman in sportswear jogged along the riverbank. When she stopped to drink water, a spider the size of a marble suddenly dangled from above her head.

"ah--!"

Several days passed in a row.

Reports about undead creatures never made the news again, but the topic of spiders gradually spread online.

Spiders have been spotted everywhere these past few days, including a golden spider that people have reportedly never seen before.

"Plum blossom category A, that guy has appeared."

At the school villa, Shima Noboru, the man in the headscarf, closed his eyes and sensed the wind for a while before turning back to ask Natsukawa.

"Do you want to seal it away?"

"I don't have time right now, and it seems like other undead creatures are eyeing me again."

Just as Natsukawa finished his phone call with Hiroko Asami, he handed a work ID to Shima Noboru.

"I'll leave the new riders to you. Just supervise their training, that shouldn't be a problem for you."

"I……"

Dao Sheng stared at his work permit in his hand, bewildered.

"He actually wants me to help train the knights. His thinking is really hard to fathom... Oh well, consider it rent payment."

"Come out now, Category K!" A roar suddenly rang out in Island Ascension's senses. "Come out and fight me!"

"Category A... is it still impossible to escape the battle?"

Dao Sheng's gaze darkened slightly.

Category A is also an undead spider creature, which was sealed away by him in the last Ultimate Battle.

Now they've come looking for us again.

Even if he doesn't want to fight, the fight will still come for him. Even though there are no more Ultimate Battles now, those guys will still be driven by their instincts.

This is the fate of the undead.

"but……"

Dao Sheng turned his gaze to the window.

"All battles are futile; what's the point of another ultimate battle?"

"Buzz!"

Villa garage.

As soon as Xia Chuan opened the roller shutter door, the lights on the front of the motorcycle automatically turned on.

Without needing a key, Golem took the initiative to control the motorcycle and approach Natsukawa.

The motorcycle still looks the same on the outside, but it has undergone tremendous changes on the inside.

For ease of use, he did not separate the golem.

"Let's go."

Xia Chuan got on the motorcycle, and the electronic screen immediately switched to a navigation map.

According to information provided by Hiroko Asami, during a mission, many dragonflies suddenly attacked passersby, and it is suspected that someone saw an immortal dragonfly.

Undead creatures with the ability to fly seem a bit troublesome.

Simply transforming into a fox won't solve the problem.

Go there under a different identity...

"Um?"

Just as he drove out of the base, Xia Chuan noticed out of the corner of his eye that a black sedan parked on the side of the road was following him.

Urban area.

Dragonflies swarmed overhead, and a group of "Extreme Fox" knights blocked the road, but they were less effective than ant soldiers.

"what!"

A large number of dragonflies gathered together, suddenly merged into an undead dragonfly creature, grabbed a knight who was in front, and flew high to the top of the building.

"Be careful!"

"call!"

Xia Chuan stopped his motorcycle at the intersection and looked up at the dragonfly-like undead creature that was holding the rider hostage on the edge of the rooftop of a tall building.

The dragonflies roaming the streets are just causing chaos; the real danger lies with this undead dragonfly.

Once this guy is dealt with, the swarming dragonflies will naturally disperse.

"Kaminaga!"

Hiroko Asami covered her head and bent over to avoid the dragonflies darting around. After passing through the police cars blocking the road behind her, she finally reached Natsukawa's side.

"There are still several hostages upstairs. I don't know what that guy is up to. You'd better not get involved in this. I've already notified the Longblade Squad."

The Longblade Team, also known as the Glaive Team to which Kenzaki Kazuma belongs, is similar to Fujiwara Daiichi's Kabuto Team, and is led by Shimura Junichi, the wearer of Kamen Rider Glaive.

Xia Chuan withdrew his gaze from the rooftop, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the black sedan hidden around the corner behind him.

They were still following.

but……

This dragonfly undead creature is likely from the Hearts deck, and it's unlikely that it would be given to the Longblade team for sealing.

"I'll give it a try first."

Natsukawa got out of the car, took the silver briefcase from Hiroko Asami, and turned his gaze to Goto, the middle-aged man who had just arrived at the scene.

"Could I borrow Magnum for a moment? We can split the points."

"what?"

Goto instinctively wanted to refuse, but when he saw it was Natsukawa, he immediately put on a smile.

"You also know about that undead creature?"

"I don't know, but saving people is no problem," Xia Chuan looked up at the rooftop again, "Think about it, there won't be another chance later."

Goto's brows furrowed, and amidst the changing expressions, he reluctantly took out the Magnum belt buckle and, after much hesitation, handed it to Natsukawa.

You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.

His intuition has always been quite accurate; Xia Chuan is definitely the most suitable teammate.

Even if he started a little late, his past as Ultraman's human form was worth the gamble.

"Remember to pay me back," Goto said through gritted teeth.

Xia Chuan chuckled inwardly.

Even if he wanted the Magnum buckle, he would trade it for something else.

"It'll be ready soon."

"Kalis!"

The undead dragonflies on the rooftop seemed to sense something. The previously chaotic swarm of dragonflies suddenly rushed towards Xia Chuan in unison, and the terrifying sight of them blotting out the sky once again caused screams.

Shadows loomed over the earth, accompanied by the flapping of countless dragonflies' wings, creating an atmosphere that seemed like the end of the world.

"This is way too much!" Goto stammered, "I think it's best to retreat first..."

"Don't worry, it's not really the end of the world. Just go a little further away."

Xia Chuan looked up, gestured for the people around him to step back, and fastened the Desire Driver to his waist while simultaneously embedding the Magnum kit.

"Assemble!"

"Transform!"

A swarm of dragonflies, accompanied by a whistling airflow, swooped down and, like a tidal wave, instantly swallowed Xia Chuan's figure.

However, the dazzling light emitted by Kamen Rider Goku Fox's transformation was not suppressed at all.

From the outside, the light and shadow formation can still be seen to be assembled, but the dragonfly formation has been completely disrupted.

"call!"

"Bang bang bang!"

With red fox-like eyes and white armor covering his upper body, his arms extended and his short gun swung around like a machine gun, constantly spitting out tongues of fire. Despite being a single person, he instantly suppressed the massive number of dragonflies controlled by the undead creatures above.

In particular, the Magnum Shooter pistol that was finally assembled in his hands, in a barrage of fire, tens of thousands of energy bullets were fired in a terrifying burst, directly tearing the dragonfly formation apart.

"This guy..."

Goto stared directly at Natsukawa's figure, which had reappeared.

Its attack efficiency was far superior to his, as if it had completely merged with the firearm.

Moreover, after being fitted with Magnum armor, it looked perfectly natural and integrated into the design.

"No way? The Magnum buckle actually belongs to him?" Goto's face turned ugly.

"Bang--!"

A loud bang suddenly rang out as Xia Chuan activated the Magnum Shooter, switching to long-barreled rifle mode and aiming at the tall building with precision from a distance.

The dragonfly undead creature that followed it had a huge green blood flower burst open from its chest. After a brief, natural fall with a scream, it struggled to escape the scene to the other side.

I'm not sure if it's a flare-up of my otitis media; I'm feeling a bit out of sorts.
