In this fantasy world, be a Kamen Rider

Section 163, page 159: The Red Kite's Power

"Is this the result of your trip to Destiny?"

Fu Hua raised an eyebrow, watching Ye Ge bustling between the two culture tanks. She covered her forehead with a headache. She had already betrayed her former friend, but the master she was now serving was such an unreliable one.

"What do you know? Do you know how much effort I put into these two things? I'm probably wanted by Destiny now." Ye Ge rolled her eyes at her, and painstakingly connected the black and red pipes created in Pandora's Tower to the incubation tank. She wiped away non-existent sweat: "Now we're all done. I just hope they don't kill me after this is over."

"Actually, teacher, you just wanted to provoke them, right? Because if you really wanted to awaken the Second Herrscher, K423 would have already been taken over by the Herrscher's consciousness."

Rita smiled slightly, her voice filled with confidence. Ye Ge was taken aback for a moment, then ruffled her hair in annoyance, laughing and scolding, "If you know, then don't say it out loud! You've ruined all the villainous aura I worked so hard to build up. Hurry up and go to the second floor to block them! I can already sense them coming in." With that, Ye Ge waved his hand, and the floor beneath Rita's feet glowed, instantly teleporting her to the second floor of Pandora's Tower.

"So I still don't understand. It's just a simple matter that could be explained clearly, so why do it this way? Even at the cost of turning your harem against you?" Fu Hua looked at Ye Ge, who had stopped, and her doubts surged up. She really couldn't understand it because, in her opinion, many of Ye Ge's actions were superfluous.

"Because only an attack filled with anger and anticipation can achieve my goal." Ye Ge smiled mysteriously, without saying much, and gently touched Fu Hua's lips. The latter instinctively tried to dodge, but Ye Ge was faster than her. With a gentle wave of her other hand, she was teleported to the third floor amidst Fu Hua's exclamation.

"Can your apprentice really defeat them? You know their combat strength is not simple either." Evolto quietly appeared next to Yoru, looking at the large screen in front of him that was showing Mokou and the others. Yoru chuckled and shook his head, summoning Pandora's Box: "This is my territory, and have you forgotten? Rita's Lost Bottle is still on her. Let's unleash her potential. Although I never intended for her to withstand it in the first place, I just wanted to buy some time."

"Let's not talk about that anymore, Evolto, are you ready?" Night Song waved her hand, interrupting Evolto, and held out a black metal plate to her: "Shall we do it, or shall we?"

“I’ll do it. As long as the genetic material isn’t completely destroyed, I can be resurrected, but it will take some time.” Evolto readily accepted the metal plate. Night Song nodded, walked between the two culture tanks, looked at the sleeping Kiana, and gently tapped the outer wall of the container: “Although she is a clone, she is also Siegfried’s acknowledged daughter. I will not repeat the mistakes of the past, and I will naturally protect her life.”

"So, this is the final experiment."

Night Song forcefully pushed the control stick, snatching it from Otto... The borrowed Honkai energy furnace began to operate at full power, and Honkai energy began to flow into Kiana's body continuously. Although she was unconscious, the pain in her body still made her show a painful expression. Night Song suddenly stopped the transmission and instead placed her hand on another black and red pipe.

“I implanted a Lost Energy Bottle into Sirin before. Honkai energy is just a trigger. To truly awaken her, I still have to use the old method.”

Glug, glug, black bubbles began to appear in the culture medium.

……

"Dean, please stop."

Rita, carrying a scythe, stood gracefully before the crowd. Mokou scoffed unhappily, "Rita, are you planning to be my enemy?"

"It was just a task for the teacher, please forgive me, Miss Mokou." Rita giggled and covered her mouth, but she didn't back down an inch, which made Mokou grit her teeth in displeasure. Mei and Yae Sakura exchanged a glance and stepped forward: "We'll be your opponents! Miss Mokou and Headmaster, you should go upstairs to find Yoru (God) quickly."

"Well... okay."

Theresa hesitated for a moment before agreeing to Yae Sakura's suggestion. Although Rita was an S-rank Valkyrie, Yae Sakura was no weakling as a Herrscher, and she also had Raiden Mei, who was also a swordswoman, to assist her. At least holding Rita back wouldn't be a problem. Moreover, time was of the essence, and every minute that was wasted would put Kiana in greater danger.

"Then please enlighten me."

Facing the Herrscher, Rita showed no fear. Her scythe flashed with a cold light as it met the fiery red blade and the sharp katana. Behind her, the Pandora Tower rapidly shifted, and two clouds of black mist appeared on either side of Rita, enveloping her scythe. Rita was startled, realizing that the black mist could actually withstand Yae Sakura's flames. A flicker of joy flashed in her eyes: "Teacher, are you helping me?"

"Then I'll have to show you my true skills!"

Rita brandished her scythe, spreading black mist that forced Mei and Yae Sakura back. Rita's eyes were clear, with a hint of fanaticism, as she charged towards the two, and another fierce battle ensued.

"Fu Hua! Are you really going to let Ye Ge go and ignore Kiana's life or death? You're aiding and abetting evil!"

Theresa gritted her teeth and glared at Fu Hua, who was bathed in flames. Mokou cracked her knuckles, making a crisp sound. "It's been a long time since I've met someone with the same abilities as me. Let's see whose flames are stronger!"

"As you wish."

Fu Hua calmly raised her head, stretched out her hand, and gently tapped the air. Countless balls of fire floated up and carpet-bombed the ground where the group was. Theresa's expression changed drastically, and she quickly raised Judah. ​​Mokou waved her hands continuously, and the Phoenix Flame dispelled all the incoming flames. When the smoke cleared, the black and red ground did not even crack, but half of the people on the ground were gone.

"Bronya, battle lost."

"Damn it, it has to be fire!"

Bronya lay on the ground, her previous defense rendering her unable to fight. Yuno wasn't much better off; fire was her natural nemesis, and her vines were burned away. Even if she tried to launch a sneak attack, the poison was evaporated by the high temperature. Not only could she not get close, she didn't even have the ability to take a step forward. Fu Hua's power was so great that they looked up to her.

"Those who are not strong enough, leave the stage here."

Fu Hua uttered these words expressionlessly, and the ground suddenly caved in. Before Bronya and Yuno could react, they were wrapped around the waist by black pipes and forcibly dragged down. The pipes were extremely tough, and even Heavy Bunny couldn't pry them open with her bare hands. She could only watch helplessly as she was dragged into the dark cage.

"No!"

Theresa's eyes widened; in just over ten minutes, they had already lost two people.

Section 164, Chapter 160: Fu Hua, who is obsessed with saving face.

"What kind of spell did that guy cast on you? You're willing to listen to him even if it means hurting your former classmates?"

Theresa's chest heaved as she pulled Judas up from her feet and angrily denounced Fu Hua's ruthlessness: "Tell me, what did he promise you? Money? Power? Or strength? You're not the kind of person who pursues these things! Destiny can give you so much! If all else fails, I can ask my grandfather. I'm sure with your abilities, he would never refuse!"

"I'm sorry, Theresa, what I want, fate can't give me." A trace of guilt flashed in Fu Hua's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination. She shook her head firmly and stretched out her right hand to block Mokou's fierce elbow strike. The two flames intertwined and were evenly matched, but with the help of Pandora's Tower, Mokou was clearly at a disadvantage.

So what exactly do you want?

"End everything, that's all." Fu Hua pointed a finger at the sky: "I want to end the tragic fate of this world, I want to completely destroy the Honkai. This is my greatest wish as the guardian of Shenzhou. Otto makes me see no hope. He only fights for his own wishes, and even goes so far as to use the power of the Honkai. Destiny can't give me anything!"

"You...you want to completely end the Honkai? How is that possible!" Theresa shouted in disbelief. Humanity had exhausted its wisdom and lives over several eras, barely managing to hold on, and ultimately, under the torrent of time and the erosion of the Honkai, it gradually moved towards the end of civilization. Fu Hua's wish was nothing short of a pipe dream.

"But Yege can! Because he never uses Honkai power, he is the only one with the best chance of ending the tragedy of this world!"

Fu Hua clenched her fist, knocking Mokou away, and then lightly flew upwards before landing hard: "Inch Force - Mountain Collapse!"

A tremendous force emanated from Judah, causing Theresa's hand to go numb and sending her flying. Judah's oath shook, and the outstretched chains tried to bind Fu Hua, but they were easily broken by her. Mokou and Fu Hua were evenly matched, but Fu Hua's tens of thousands of years of accumulation could not be easily depleted. In the end, Chi Yuan's flames gained the upper hand.

"Fu Hua, I'm begging you, come with us to save Kiana. She's Cecilia's child. I couldn't save her ten years ago, and now I can't even protect her daughter?" Theresa wiped the dust off her face, struggled to stand up, and stared defiantly at Fu Hua. The pleading look stung Theresa, who turned her face away.

"Please, I really don't want to lose any more."

Theresa cried, her tears mingling with dust as they dripped onto the black floor. Beside her, Mokou sat up from the ground, baring her teeth, and glared fiercely at the huge relief behind Fu Hua. She knew that Yege was watching them, and it was because of his interference that she had repeatedly fallen behind in her battle with Fu Hua.

"I..." Fu Hua bit her lower lip. Her mind was in turmoil. She had only recovered a little bit of her memories, not even as much as Ye Ge had stolen. If she were to face Theresa after ten thousand years, she would not be swayed no matter how badly Theresa cried. The emotions of immortal beings are usually not very active. But not now. She was just a girl who had lived a little longer.

"You're obsessed, Fu Hua."

Mokou spoke in a low voice: "Since when have you become accustomed to relying on the power of others? To following the orders of others? You say you are a guardian? Is this how guardians sacrifice lives to achieve so-called righteousness?"

"Stop talking!"

Fu Hua suddenly shouted, her voice filled with excitement. Countless fireballs flew wildly. Mohong didn't move, nor did Theresa. The fireballs grazed past them, and the scorching heat even burned the corner of Theresa's clothes to ashes. She wiped away her tears, tore off the burning corner of her clothes, and looked intently at Fu Hua, whose expression was unpredictable.

"Miss Mokou is right! You want to end the Honkai! Then why don't you trust your own power! Don't you trust us, your comrades! If Yoru goes back on his word, the Honkai will still exist, and what can you do then? In that case, you will be the one who killed Kiana! You will be the one who killed your classmate, your friend!"

"Fu Hua, stop!"

Theresa's earnest persuasion made Fu Hua's face grow increasingly grim. The flames on her body involuntarily receded, and struggle flickered in her eyes. Mokou's eyes narrowed, and she pressed down hard with her right hand, leaping up from the ground and almost swooping down behind Fu Hua. Before Fu Hua could react, the phoenix wings behind her unfolded and slammed into Fu Hua.

"Night Song has set so many obstacles for me, it's not too much for me to retaliate with a sneak attack, is it?" Mokou whistled as she picked up the fallen Fu Hua and placed her in front of Theresa. Theresa struggled to her feet and used Judah to bind Fu Hua. She opened her red eyes, looking at the chains on her body, the spears around her, and Theresa's eager gaze.

“A sneak attack is not the act of a gentleman, Miss Mokou.”

“I know, but I’m not a gentleman, I’m a woman.” Mohong shrugged, her words leaving Fu Hua speechless. Fu Hua could only resign herself to closing her eyes. Theresa quickly grabbed her hand: “Fu Hua, what exactly does Nightsong want to do? Why did he kidnap Kiana?”

Fu Hua reluctantly opened her eyes, glanced at the anxious Theresa, and sighed helplessly. Because her mind was still immature, she had fallen into Mokou's trap and become a prisoner. She had no choice but to tell them about Yege's plan: "Yege, he wants to awaken the Second Herrscher's soul in Kiana's body and then control it, forcing the Honkai Will to take action."

"what?"

Theresa's mouth dropped open, and she was completely at a loss for words: "If the Second Herrscher awakens, then does that mean Kiana will...?"

“Her personality is suppressed, and her consciousness is controlled by the Second Herrscher. At that time, she will be a humanoid calamity. However, this is also an opportunity to drag a god down to the mortal realm.” As she spoke, Fu Hua’s eyes dimmed again. Even if a god descends to the mortal realm, can they really defeat her?

"Fu Hua! I need your help! Please help me save Kiana!"

Theresa gritted her teeth and released Fu Hua from her restraints. The latter sat up in surprise, cracked her wrists, and said with a complex tone, "I was just your enemy, and you trust me this much?"

"Looks like I overestimated you." Mokou casually tossed her cigarette butt on the ground, looking down at Fu Hua with a mocking smile. "You clearly wanted to agree, but because of your position, you couldn't find a way to back down. Only after we defeated you did you use that as an excuse to help. This kind of personality is generally called..."

"Tsundere".

The Honkai Impact Scroll is coming to an end! The next scroll will take us back to Gensokyo!

Section 165, Question 161: Three bottles in a row?

"Arrogant...tsundere? I'm not!"

Fu Hua's expression froze for a moment, then slowly turned red. Theresa chuckled, scratching her head, and hugged Fu Hua with delight: "I knew you'd help me, Fu Hua!"

"Alright, alright, I understand. Prisoners must listen to the victors." With a wry smile, Fu Hua patted Theresa's head. Unconsciously, a smile appeared on Fu Hua's lips, and her mood improved considerably. She was no longer as aloof as before. Seeing this, Mohong secretly clicked her tongue: "She's obviously just being tsundere, but she won't admit it!"

Fu Hua's expression froze. She took a deep breath, stood up from Judas, nodded to Theresa, rekindled the flames in her hands, exchanged a glance with the two of them, and then ran down to the next level.

"Oh dear, we're under siege!"

Rita looked at the group that had gathered in front of her and gave a helpless bitter smile. She threw down the scythe in her hand and raised her hands. Theresa expressionlessly spread Judas to bind her. Mei and Yae Sakura glanced at Fu Hua, clearly still wary. Fu Hua shrugged; she didn't intend for everyone to understand her.

"Let's go, we must stop Night Song!"

Theresa clenched her small fist, and the others also became excited. Although everyone had different feelings and different purposes, they were all trying to stop Night Song and save their companions. Fu Hua and Theresa looked at each other, nodded, and pushed open the third level of Pandora's Tower together.

A deep voice echoed through the empty magic tower. What came into view were huge machines and Honkai energy furnaces, as well as two incubation tanks placed high up. Yege was squatting on the steps when he heard the door being pushed open. He slowly opened his eyes, which were no longer black, but filled with blood red.

"Night Song! Give me back my niece!"

Theresa clenched her fists, tossed Rita aside, sealed her power, and then took a few quick steps toward Night Song. Fu Hua quickly stopped her, her gaze toward Night Song filled with vigilance. Night Song's demeanor was completely different from before. If the original Night Song was a lurking cheetah, then the current Night Song was a crocodile baring its fangs.

"There's still a little time to spare."

He glanced briefly at Kiana behind him, then calmly turned around. Surprisingly, he spoke very little, seemingly unwilling to say more. He simply took out the Evol Driver and placed it on his waist.

"Cobra! Rider System!"

"Evolution!"

Yege stopped transforming and took out a black metal plate with nine Lost Energy Bottles on it. Six of them had turned into black bottles with gold trim, while the remaining three were purple. Yege pulled out the purple Lost Energy Bottles one by one and, to everyone's astonishment, pointed them at her own neck.

"One, two."

A faint crimson liquid flowed around his neck. Ye Ge exerted a little force, and the purple energy bottle merged into it. The nebula gas in his body suddenly boiled. He picked up the second one and inserted it, but it was still not the limit. He picked up the third one. Fu Hua swallowed hard, his face turning extremely ugly. As the energy bottle merged into Ye Ge, the human aura on his body became increasingly faint.

"The third one."

With a flash of purple light, the third Lost Energy Bottle entered Night Song's body. The last trace of light in his eyes disappeared, and his human aura was covered by an indescribable malice. He slowly placed his hand on the control lever of his belt and slowly began to turn it. Accompanied by the red and black armor merging into one, Kamen Rider Evol officially appeared before everyone.

"Fu Hua, have you betrayed us?"

Evol's tone was indifferent, devoid of any emotion, not even a hint of resentment or accusation, as if Fu Hua's betrayal was as insignificant as kicking away a small pebble.

"I'm sorry, Night Song, but I still want to achieve peace through my own efforts, without harming anyone, rather than sacrificing my friends."

Fu Hua clasped her hands slightly and bowed gently to Ye Ge as an apology, but she quickly straightened up, flames rising from her body, and stood with Mohong, like two phoenixes standing side by side.
