I'm really just human

"Thank you anyway."

Xia Chuan took the information and looked through it.

The homepage is a driver that is very similar to the Kamen Rider belt, except that it is silver-white in color and has no extra parts.

Belt-style shuttle.

"This is the first generation shuttle, also known as the prototype," Asami Hiroko explained, "It was the only way for humans to obtain the power of Kamen Rider before the development of Kamen Rider Driver. Of course, it has now become a backup option. This is also the only way for you to obtain the power of Kamen Rider."

"Prototype?"

Xia Chuan turned to the follow-up information and looked at it carefully.

He had only heard of it before, but did not know as much about it in detail as he does today, and the official would not release the specific information.

Hiroko Asami was right. Since the formal channels didn't work, he could only take the illegal route.

But how can I get a physical machine?

Even though they are only options now, items that can gain knight power are still controlled items.

"don’t worry."

Hiroko Asami smiled and patted Natsukawa's shoulder in a relaxed manner.

"Although the shuttle can obtain the power of Kamen Rider, it is not as simple as imagined. The failure rate is as high as over 90%. Not only does it require great pain, but in the end, most of what is obtained is the power of ordinary knights.

There are still some first-generation machines that have flowed into the public, and there may be some in the Equipment Department. I have asked my colleagues to help inquire about it, and I will let you know as soon as I have the results. "

"Thank you."

Xia Chuan opened his mouth, but being a quiet person he didn't know what to say, and for a moment the atmosphere in the car became a little silent.

"You're still the same old man who doesn't like to talk."

Hiroko Asami smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Although he is no longer Ultraman, his personality seems to be no different. It feels to her as if Ultraman has returned.

This damn sense of confusion.

"Okay, go back and wait for my news. If you can successfully transform into Kamen Rider, I will try to recommend you to the higher-ups."

"That's not necessary. I don't want to go back anymore."

Xia Chuan silently took the documents and got off the car.

He does not trust the alliance, and the resistance he has encountered in applying for Kamen Rider qualifications in recent years may not be unrelated to the above.

"Hiroko."

Natsukawa suddenly stopped and turned to look at Hiroko Asami who was starting the car.

"Can you tell me about Ultraman sometime? What happened in the final battle? And... why does Ultraman care so much about humans?"

Perhaps only these Ultraman’s teammates know the reason why there is such a huge deviation between the development of this world and "Shin Ultraman".

"I do not know."

Hiroko Asami paused and avoided Natsukawa's gaze with a slightly sour nose.

"We believed that he would come back, but it was you who woke up in the end."

"Buzz!"

The car drove past with the sound of its engine, leaving Xia Chuan alone with his thoughts.

"Don't worry, I won't waste Ultraman's life."

"what--!"

"Help!"

A sudden violent commotion behind him woke Xia Chuan up.

Looking back, I saw a large number of guests rushing out of the funeral in panic. In the chaos, I could even hear gunshots and strange people shouting.

"Boom!"

what happened?

Xia Chuan looked across the crowd at the training ground and spotted two green-skinned monsters amid the sound of gunfire.

Green thorn?

Are you kidding me? They showed up in the daytime, and in such a crowded place!

The early stage is like laying the foundation. I only have a rough outline of the main plot now. I will adapt to it first, copy some book reviews, and improve the conception.

Chapter 5 Transformation

2023-04-30

"Wow!"

The messy training ground was soon covered by a barrier, and even Xia Chuan who was outside was trapped inside.

I don’t know if it’s because of the appearance of two monsters, but the barrier formed much faster and the range is much larger than last time.

"why?"

Xia Chuan stared at the barrier with a sullen face.

Almost few of the many guests at the scene were able to escape. There were even a few who were stuck in the middle and did not leave in time and their bodies were cut off by the barriers. The splattering blood scared many people.

"Ahhh!"

"Blood!"

The refugees who found themselves unable to escape cried and screamed, and finally could only hide in the messy hall to avoid becoming the next target of the monsters.

The funeral scene, which had been exceptionally peaceful just now, suddenly turned into a living hell. Fortunately, the green-skinned monster seemed to be looking for something, and it only instinctively captured a few people in front of it without killing them in large numbers.

"Kale-Kale!"

"boom!"

Xia Chuan temporarily hid behind a table, clenched his fists and observed the movements of the two weirdos.

It does seem like it is consciously looking for something.

Is it...

Xiachuan followed the strange man's gaze and turned to the chaotic crowd, and the familiar figures of Tsugami mother and son instantly came into view.

That mother and son.

Wasn’t it a coincidence that the middle-aged man was attacked yesterday?

"found it!"

The two weirdos also discovered the mother and child, and stopped attacking at the same time. They even threw away a man with glasses who had just been captured by the tentacles without any reluctance.

"boom!"

Xia Chuan was suddenly startled. Facing the black shadow thrown by the monster's tentacles, he quickly turned over to avoid it. The next moment, he saw the man with glasses smashing the table into pieces and fainting.

What a lot of strength.

Looking at the green-skinned monster in the field again, the words of the Kamen Rider's previous report reappeared in Xiachuan's mind.

Green thorn, danger level 2...

He is relatively familiar with the world of Kamen Rider, but as far as he can remember, no other knight has a monster as green-skinned and tentacle-like as this one.

What exactly does Hazard Level 2 mean?

Although they seem to be just some weirdo soldiers, they pose an unexpectedly great threat to ordinary people.

"Buzz!"

Xia Chuan's pupils dilated, and a stream of information suddenly flooded into his mind.

To upgrade your physique from LV1 to LV2, you need to hunt down two of these green-skinned monsters.

"Hunting?"

Xia Chuan's eyes twitched.

I think too highly of him, he can't beat even one of them.

Even though his physical condition has improved, he still doesn't think he has the ability to deal with this green-skinned monster.

The injuries from the last time have not yet healed completely, and there are still bruises on my arms from the whipping.

"what--!"

At this time, screams were heard again from the crowd that had suffered the attack. A slightly plump woman stood out from the crowd, grabbing her hair and wailing in pain. Her body twisted and quickly turned into a new green-skinned monster.

Xia Chuan's body trembled slightly: "This thing turned out to be a human?!"

"Three? That seems a bit tricky."

A young man walked out of the crowd with a headache, observing the green-skinned monster while buckling the knight bracelet on his left wrist.

Bracelet-shaped transformation prop.

Xia Chuan turned his gaze from the green-skinned monster to the young man, and was slightly distracted when he saw the peak-shaped mechanical insect flapping its wings and flying out of the void.

Bracelet and insect meter...

It is the third Kamen Rider in "Kamen Rider Kabuto" and the exclusive equipment of the captain of the elite force. It has a masked form covered with heavy armor and a regular knight form that can enter the upgraded form after the armor is exploded.

Time acceleration, also known as super-speeding, is the core ability of the Kabuto Knights. It can accelerate themselves out of the constraints of the time flow and form a magical scene that is almost like time is suspended. The protagonist in the series even relies on the final transcendent form to master the powerful power of traveling through the past, future and time.

"Look carefully, it's time for me to perform!"

The young man seemed to enjoy the gazes of the people around him. He chuckled as he caught the mechanical insect device on the spot. He was about to install it on the bracelet to transform when a fourth green-skinned monster suddenly rushed out from the ruins behind him and pounced on the young man like a swollen ball.

"what?!"

"boom--!"

A loud explosion was heard in the training ground. Although the young man reacted in time and rolled on the ground to avoid it, he was still hit by most of the blast. He was thrown into the air in a panic and was covered in wounds when he landed again. Even the knight's bracelet was thrown away.

The sudden change shocked everyone, and fear followed. The hope that had just risen fell to the bottom again.

Natsukawa also didn't expect to meet a careless chuunibyou.

Just transform, why try to be cool?

"This is bad."

"Shhhhh!"

The explosion destroyed the fire hydrants and the water pipes in the training ground. A large amount of water gushed down, soaking Xia Chuan like a drowned rat. His suit and shirt were wrinkled and stuck to his body, looking completely unpresentable.

However, at this moment, there was nothing else in his eyes.

The fire in the ruins was put out before it could spread. Mist and steam filled the entire place. Even the monsters began to appear and disappear, becoming even more terrifying.

"Hoohoo."

Xia Chuan stood up from behind the bunker and glanced at the survivors huddled in the wreckage of bricks and tiles, as well as the young man covered in blood in the ruins.

This guy has completely lost his ability to fight.

It is not known when the new knight will arrive.

We can't just wait.

Let’s try to fight again while the water vapor is covering us.

"Buzz!"

Xia Chuan raised his hand in a deep voice and forcibly grabbed the hovering bee-shaped insect instrument under the young man's puzzled gaze.

"What are you going to do?"

The young man's face suddenly tensed. When he saw Xia Chuan bending down to pick up the knight's bracelet on the ground, he hurriedly shouted.

"Hey, stop messing around! The Knight System is personally bound, you can't transform! Stop it now!"

"call--!"
