I'm really just human

No, I've caught up!

When Hosou Eimu reached level 5, Captain 01's mood completely sank.

Where did this little monster come from?

He, a knight on the list, was easily overtaken.

So what if he just grew fast? Do you think you can deal with the "Dragon Rider" by yourself?

"Do you know what you're doing?"

01 The captain turned his attention to the frontline players who were attacking Natsukawa on the other side, and angrily forced Hosou Eimu to retreat.

"Stop it now! You have no idea how terrifying that guy is! If we don't eliminate him first, none of us will have a chance to pass the level! We won't even have a chance to get the real game knight system!"

"A true game knight?"

Hosou Eimu's attack slowed down a bit, and when he turned around, he saw all the frontline players screaming and flying, all of them losing their combat effectiveness in an instant.

There was a vague, high-speed moving figure flashing in front of each floating player.

"what?"

"Ugh!"

The frontline players had only rushed halfway when they flew backwards like dumplings and fell to the ground, rolling over and wailing, so that everyone in Team 01 shook as if from the stress.

The combat effectiveness of the "Dragon Riders" seemed to be completely unaffected.

The threat has indeed decreased a lot, but it makes no difference to them.

"go!"

Captain 01 secretly swallowed his saliva, and finally couldn't help but lead his team members out of the battle circle, and gradually merged into the light gate to exit the hidden level.

You can find a way to hide the props later, there is no need to continue to take the beating.

Moreover, the information about the hidden items came from Consortium X, and its authenticity is now in serious doubt.

"call!"

The frontline players also evacuated at the speed of light.

Soon, only Natsukawa and Hosho Eimu were left at the scene, and even the dungeon boss that had grown to level 10 seemed to have little presence.

After losing all his subordinates, the dungeon boss became particularly irritable and jumped off the platform to rush towards Xia Chuan and the other man.

"You're quite capable, hahaha! But unfortunately, I've already reached level 10..."

"Zizi!"

A sealing barrier caught the laughing dungeon boss in mid-air, missing the damage one after another. However, the strong suction that followed made the boss' laughter stop abruptly.

Bound by the air, the dungeon boss could only watch himself fly towards the brilliantly luminous in-game sword.

"Impossible! This is not a player's ability..."

"boom--!"

Combo light effect explosion.

From the outside, it looked like the boss was killed with a single blow from the game's long sword. The dungeon boss instantly exploded in front of Xia Chuan, leaving only two balls of light that condensed and floated in the air, transforming into a player driver and a game cartridge, along with a clearance certificate cartridge.

"Game cleared!"

"Is this the hidden item?"

Hosho Eimu's body trembled slightly.

He felt strange at first because he had obtained the Knight System but did not have the Transformation Driver.

The Chronicle cartridge doesn't really look like a drive at all.

He finally understood after seeing the hidden props.

The real game knight is transformed by the drive and cartridge.

"So what is our transformation?"

"It's just the power the game lends you."

Xia Chuan stepped forward and picked up the player drive and the game cartridge.

It is "Extraordinary Action X", the basic cartridge of Kamen Rider Ex-Aid.

That’s right, the boss just now was based on the villain that appeared in “Uncanny X”, and the hidden props naturally correspond to the knight.

"and many more!"

Seeing Natsukawa putting away the hidden props, Hosou Eimu hurriedly spoke out to stop him.

"I can't let you go like this! If what those guys said is true, this knight system can cure gaming addiction, right?"

Xia Chuan paused: "Of course, level 1 can separate the patient from the source of collapse, so that the source of collapse can be eliminated alone..."

"Then I can't let you take it away!"

Hosou Eimu was full of fighting spirit and faced Natsukawa's back with a fighting attitude. He was not intimidated by Natsukawa's strong performance just now.

"I'm sorry, but I have a reason to use this knight system. I've seen through your attack. Let's fight it out!"

Chapter 321 Disappearance

2023-10-22

"see through?"

Natsukawa side-glanced at Hosou Eimu who was in attack mode.

He didn't use any tricks, so what could he see through?

"It's good to be confident, but don't be too arrogant. You'll die."

"Why don't you just give it a try and find out? No matter how real this place is, it's still a game after all. I'll show you how the game really works!"

The corners of Baosheng Yongmeng's mouth curled up under his mask.

Fighting against opponents of higher rank has always been his forte.

Not to mention that his current game level is already lv5, which is 2 levels higher than his opponent. Given his advantage, there is no reason for him to lose.

Now that the boss was destroyed, he treated his opponent as the new boss.

"what!"

Without waiting for Natsukawa to make a move, Hosou Eimu quickly turned over and rushed behind a floating wooden box, slashing with the sword in his hand, instantly merging with the exploded game props.

"strengthen!"

“Hehe,” after being bathed in the light of the item, Hosho Eimi completely calmed down, “As long as it’s a skill, it can’t be hidden from my eyes. The control trick just now takes 1 second to activate, right?

So the way to capture you is very simple, that is - speed! Faster than you!"

"Shh!"

Two afterimages appeared on the left and right at the same time.

Hosou Eimu moved at high speed under the enhancement of the props. He did not launch an attack immediately, but waited for Natsukawa to reveal a flaw first.

"This is a game! Haha!"

"Has your personality changed at all?"

Natsukawa could clearly see the figure of Hosho Eimu.

This level of speed can only deceive the eyes of ordinary knights and is far inferior to the time-rise speed.

What made him more curious was the change in Hosou Eimu's personality.

After entering the game state, it's like becoming a different person.

The protagonist in "Ex-Aid" seems to have developed a second personality due to infection with the Collapse virus.

But the boy in front of him couldn't sense the existence of the source of collapse.

It seems to be born that way.

"call!"

Xia Chuan raised his arm again, and a circle of sealing barrier emblems appeared under his feet.

The specific situation doesn’t matter, but you can upgrade the knight card first.

The level of "Chronicle" players is related to the qualifications for the subsequent games, the higher the better.

"The good opportunity is now!"

Hosou Eimu, leaving behind an afterimage, chuckled and accelerated further.

"Just as I thought, there is a 1-second gap... huh?"

"boom--!"

Hosou Eimu suddenly showed up during the sprint, and before he could react he flew into the air again. Controlled by an invisible force, he flew out and hit the stone pillar erected at the edge of the venue.

"how come?"

After being embedded in the stone pillar in a large shape and unable to break free, Hosou Eimu looked at the ground in disbelief.

The sealing barrier still remained at Xiachuan's feet.

"The skill hasn't been activated yet..."

“Who says you have to use the same skills?”

Natsukawa waved his hand to dispel the sealing barrier, and with a flick of his fingers, Hosou Eimu, who was deeply embedded in the stone pillar, was thrown into the air again, crashing into the other side of the field like a cannonball, and rolled in pain to break free from the transformation, and even the "Chronicle" cartridge fell out.

"Reality is not a game, and I am not a game boss with a fixed pattern. You don't understand the situation at all."

"hateful……"

Hosou Eimu watched Natsukawa walk past him and struggled to grab the "Chronicle" cartridge again, but when he turned around, he found that Natsukawa had already exited the copy through the light gate.

"Eternal Dream!"

"Are you okay?"

The students who had gotten rid of the gaming addiction rushed into the field, and as the hidden levels disappeared, they helped Hosou Eimeng return to the original copy.

"Who was that player just now?"

"Feel……"

"Now is not the time to explore," Xia Chuan walked out from the remaining students, looked at the condition of Baosheng Yongmeng and said, "Leave first and send Yongmeng to the hospital."

It just so happened that he also had to go to the hospital.

The newly obtained ex-aid system is not as powerful as that of "Chronicle" players, because the basic cartridge can only be switched between lv1 and lv2.

The player's source of power is the ultimate game "Chronicle" cartridge, which integrates almost all game cartridge data and has a high level cap.

Ex-Aid upgrades require a complete cartridge, and the level is linked to the level of the cartridge.

At present, its biggest function is to cure patients with gaming syndrome through the lv1 form.

……

"Boom!"

Dongdu Hospital.

God seemed to sense the cries in the hospital, and a thunderstorm suddenly fell under the cover of night.

Goto staggered out of the ward, slowly squatted down in the corridor, hugged his knees and cried bitterly.

As the gaming disorder attacks concentrated, the noise in the hospital became louder. The medical staff were already busy, but they could not change the cruel fate of the gaming disorder patients who disappeared in despair.

"No, I don't want to disappear!"

"I don't want to die!"

In the same ward, the patient who watched others become transparent and disappear completely lost his composure and rushed out of the ward like a madman.

He had just stumbled into the hall when his body was ultimately unable to withstand the erosion of the Collapse Virus. It turned into a pool of data in the overflowing electric current and dissipated in front of Hosou Nagadeki who had just entered the hospital.
