I'm really just human

"Zizi!"

"This is……"

Hosou Eimu stretched out his hand with a trembling voice and picked up the last flying data light spot.

Really gone.

Wailing sounds suddenly rang out throughout the hospital, as if a Pandora's box had been opened. All patients began to experience a chain reaction, and finally all turned into data spots that filled the entire main hospital area.

"Is this what the instructor called gaming sickness?"

The other students' teeth were chattering.

If they are infected with the game disease every time they play the game and the game boss is not dealt with in time, they may disappear.

This feeling is so hopeless.

Even more cruel than dying in battle.

"it's all my fault."

Baosheng Yongmeng fell to the ground helplessly and grabbed his fingers blaming himself.

"If I hadn't been thinking about playing games at that time, but had directly attacked the boss, maybe I could have brought out the hidden props to save people... That person is right, reality is not a game..."

"Everyone!"

The sound of news interruptions rang out amid the chaos in the hospital lobby, and Tan Zhengzong's gentle face appeared in front of the camera.

"I am the current acting president of Foundation X, and also the person in charge of the gaming disorder project designated by the alliance. Today, I have something very important to inform all citizens..."

Hosou Eimu raised his head following the voice and turned his gaze to Dan Masamune who was making a careful announcement at the press conference.

Without the blessing of the game state, he now returned to his introverted personality, with confusion in his eyes.

“The so-called gaming disease is actually a computer virus that has evolved to infect the human body. We call it the Collapse Virus, and its source is believed to be a recently appeared game copy.

"According to feedback from the hospital, the psychological pressure on the infected person can lead to the onset of viral proliferation game sickness, and the worst outcome is digital disappearance."

Under the continuous flash lights, Tan Zhengzong maintained the demeanor of a president and bowed to the camera.

“The current situation can be considered our mistake, but please rest assured that disappearance does not mean death. The data of all patients are saved in the final level of Kamen Rider Chronicle.

In the future, we will do our best to complete the clearance, retrieve the data and let the patients appear again! ”

"Can you still show up?"

The uncle muttered to himself, stood up and ran to the aisle to watch the TV in the hall.

Later, Xia Chuan also followed Shen Si and walked out of the ward.

He rushed over as soon as he left the game copy.

It’s just that the actual situation is different from what he judged.

The patient was indeed infected with the Collapse virus, but the source was not an ordinary Collapse virus.

Instead, it comes from the final boss of "Chronicles", "Game God".

Xia Chuan glanced at Tan Zhengzong who continued to speak in front of the TV camera.

The big villain turned out to be the new representative of the consortium X.

But this guy didn't lie. He was able to retrieve the data and revive the patient.

It’s just that the process is not that simple.

Xia Chuan took out the ex-aid cassette from his pocket thoughtfully, paused, and turned his gaze to Hosou Eimu, whose eyes were red and swollen.

Bronchitis relapsed for no apparent reason, and the medicine was not effective.

Chapter 322 The Return of the Magician

2023-10-24

As the year draws to a close, a rainstorm causes the temperature to drop sharply.

After leaving the hospital, Hosou Eimu walked alone in the rain, using the cold rain to wash away the pain in his body, and the battle scenes in the hidden levels kept flashing through his mind.

The mysterious player's behavior and words, as well as his receding figure... until the scene where all the hospital patients turned into light spots and disintegrated in grief.

Genius game player, game king, undefeated legend... these gaming titles that accompanied him growing up have unknowingly made him blindly arrogant.

I think I can win as long as I play games.

But reality taught him a lesson.

When he couldn't afford to lose, he lost to the mysterious player. Not only the hidden props, but also the future levels would have to be handed over to him.

He was no match for his opponent who was even above level 2, and his proud tactics were completely restrained. He really didn't know how to turn the defeat into victory.

The mysterious player is more like a boss than a boss, and the kind of boss that there is no hope of defeating.

“Am I really a genius?”

"Pfft!"

Baosheng Yongmeng knelt down in a puddle in the alley, with water splashing around him. In his blurred consciousness, he suddenly saw footsteps coming along the rain.

Booming lightning.

When I tried to take a closer look, my vision gradually darkened, and I could only vaguely feel that it was a familiar figure.

who is it?

"Whether you are a genius or not depends on whether you can defeat yourself."

Xiachuan walked to the side of the alley holding an umbrella and looked calmly at the unconscious Hosou Eimu.

The original personality is kind and introverted, while the second personality is a little too conceited.

The former belongs to human beings, while the latter is like an independent consciousness born out of games.

This is very similar to Daguba.

Daguba purely yearns for fighting, while Hosou Eimu's second personality purely yearns for games.

If the two personalities could be perfectly integrated, Hosho Eimu would be considered a truly talented player.

"Snapped!"

Without taking Hosou Eimu with him, Natsukawa simply threw down the EX-Aid drive and cassette and turned around and disappeared at the intersection.

The rainstorm seemed to be pulled away, and it suddenly became smaller and smaller, until only a few water droplets were left falling.

He has tried this knight system.

Without high-level cartridges, the level is locked at lv1 and 2, and the combat power is not as good as the mass-produced players of "Chronicle" after the level is increased.

Like knights like Polar Fox, the real strength lies in its scalability.

Only by using high-level cartridges and being able to withstand it can the value of this knight system be realized.

In this regard, we can make use of the second personality of Hosou Eimu.

This kind of gaming addict personality is destined to be competitive and will desperately look for opportunities as long as there is hope.

Perhaps it will be possible to generate ex-aid high-level cartridges in subsequent levels.

The main character in the show "Ex-Aid" has a talent for creating advanced cassettes, so there's no harm in giving it a try.

It's always easier than developing it yourself.

There are still many knight cards needed later, so there is no need to do them all by yourself.

Xia Chuan turned his head and looked at the news on the big screen in the outdoor square.

Next, it’s almost time to take the cards of the cavalry and crossbow cavalry to avoid any accidents later.

It’s just that Xiaonan, the crossbow rider, has a bit of an evil nature.

He didn't want to have anything to do with this woman.

"The latest news from the police," the news screen switched, "a group of unknown people claiming to be from the Society of the Extermination Society broke into the police hospital and took away the suspect Hiroshi Sagami who was receiving treatment..."

"Sagami Hiroshi?"

Xia Chuan raised his eyebrows in surprise, and after a moment of confusion, he quickly recognized the photos of the people published in the news.

It was the hybrid form of the commander that Hiroko Asami was chasing last time, the man called Captain Sagami.

What on earth is the Life and Death Society?

Sounds a bit like a cult.

"witch?"

In the underground parking lot of the square, a group of masked men wearing hoods and shawls quickly got into the modified fully functional command vehicle. When they were about to leave, they found that the commander of the out-of-town combat unit had not made any move.

Across the street from Natsukawa, Haruto was mixed in the crowd, with only a pair of eyes showing through his mask, and his look was quite complicated.

For a moment, it seemed as if I had returned to the time when I first entered school.

Now he has his own pursuits, but will Master Shen Yong understand him?

"What's wrong, Wu?" A middle-aged man in the command vehicle frowned, "The mission is over, what are you doing over there? Come back quickly!"

"That person is the captain's former school mentor!"

"Kamiyoshi Shinji? Really. He's currently ranked second on the Knight list, but he seems to be a Level 5 Knight. He can't transform into W by himself. It is said that the other half of W is a character in the time and space dungeon."

The team's data analyst pushed up his glasses and looked at the data on the tablet.

"I'm more curious about his time as Ultraman than the Knight."

"Level 5 Knight?" A masked man nearby said in a youthful voice, "The captain is already a Level 6 Knight. If he participates in the Knight Challenge, it will definitely scare his mentor, right?"

"Those guys outside don't know anything about the Alliance's management. They can praise a group of Level 5 knights to the sky, and that Level 6 knight RX is being used as a pawn by the Alliance without knowing it. It's a joke..."

"Shut up!"

The middle-aged man scolded coldly.

"Our enemies are the Alliance and the aliens. Why should we be so complacent about this?"

"Yes, there are still too few available combat forces."

Haruto teleported into the command vehicle, the halo of the magic ring in his hand hidden.

"Level 6 is far from enough, and it's definitely not enough for me alone."

"Captain, that Sagami Hiroshi also has magician talent, maybe he can enter the dungeon."

"Is it a bit dangerous? That guy seems to have some mental problems."

"Let's try it first. As long as we can deal with the Alliance, don't worry too much about other aspects," the middle-aged man said in a deep voice. "By the way, Wu, what do you think of this game copy? I always feel that there is something wrong with Tan Zhengzong."

"I have already requested a player spot from the front line."

Haruto took out the Chronicle cassette.

"I will keep an eye on this matter. You guys just continue to develop the magician dungeon. Now is not the time to relax. The alliance is likely to launch a dungeon challenge mission."

"Captain, those guys don't have the energy to explore the magician's copy right now. They seem to be looking for someone recently," the young man said gloatingly, "The last agent of Consortium X was not a replacement. I heard that he was killed in the last Dimension Wall incident."

The middle-aged man shook his head, with a slightly worried look on his face. "There's no problem with the magician's copy, but for the game copy, I heard that you can only use the game system. Even Team 01 suffered a great loss in it. You alone..."

“Control skills can be used in game copies.”

Haruto rubs the ring prop with his fingers.

"I have a magician's ring, so I should have no problem protecting myself."

"Well then," the middle-aged man nodded helplessly, "Be careful and don't expose yourself."

……

square.

Natsukawa silently looked towards where Haruto had been standing.

Teleport and hide...

It seemed like a magician's ability, vaguely familiar, and non-hostile.
