Guyver Armor: KAP-2

Chapter 102 Ambush, the Resistance Organization's Operation (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The 20th floor of Ma Pharmaceutical Company houses the core research laboratory of the formulation and development center.

"The vital signs are still below expectations —"

Kenichi Sato, his white lab coat stained with dark brown blood, stared at the experimental subject in the culture chamber with a slightly irritated expression, his brows furrowed in a knot.

The young assistant stood cautiously beside the testing table, his voice trembling slightly: "Dr. Sato, headquarters just called, expressing extreme dissatisfaction with our Japanese branch's failure to develop a usable super-beast soldier model—"

In particular, last week, the Australian branch, one of only two branches that did not produce super-beast soldiers, successfully developed a new model.

Headquarters has issued an ultimatum: within one month, we must submit at least one super-beast terraform capable of combat, or our budget allocation will be reduced.

"call--!"

With a loud bang, Sato slammed his palm down on the lab table, causing the reagent tubes on the table to rattle and clatter.

"Those bastards at headquarters know absolutely nothing!"

Already frustrated by the recent setbacks in his experiments, Sato couldn't help but yell, "How many rare raw materials do we need to create a usable super-beast soldier? How many suitable bodies do we need to select? With the current success rate, it's less than five percent!"

These guys only care about power; they have no idea how much effort we've put in to increase the success rate to mass production standards!

His chest heaved violently, his voice filled with resentment: "What I, Sato Kenichi, want to do is to create something like Ramochese and Gagiel, capable of large-scale mass production..."

And these are perfect products with extremely high stability, unlike the defective products that the Australian branch produces by sheer luck!

The poor assistant was so frightened that he froze, and could only keep his head down, pretending not to hear his boss's furious complaints.

After venting his frustration, Sato scratched his balding head in annoyance and slammed the experimental records on the table. "Damn it! You guys, keep an eye on the experiment's progress. I'm leaving now. I'm going to drive to the western suburbs to clear my head."

Before leaving, he went into his personal office, opened the bottom drawer of his desk, and carefully took out a small bag wrapped in blue checkered cloth.

He gently stroked the outer fabric, his gaze softening slightly, before tightly stuffing the small bag into the pocket of his undergarment inside his white coat.

Downstairs in the parking lot, two teams of beast soldiers, ostensibly there for protection but also for surveillance, had already assembled.

Ten soldiers, dressed in standard black uniforms, stood tall and straight, lined up neatly beside two black vans.

Sato glanced at the group, his brow furrowing almost imperceptibly. Several unfamiliar faces had appeared in the guard team today.

But he didn't investigate further. Kronos had always been very wary of its core researchers, and it was common for the people monitoring him to change over time.

"Set off!"

At Sato's command, two black minivans started up one after the other, drove out of the underground parking garage, and disappeared smoothly at the end of the street.

In the apartment two traffic lights away, Kaga Natsuki was leaning against the window, his binoculars fixed on the direction of the two black minivans.

After confirming everything was correct, she quickly typed on her communicator and sent an encrypted message: "The goods were dispatched ahead of schedule at 1:03 PM. Both truckloads of goods remain unchanged and are expected to arrive at the designated area in half an hour. Please check and confirm receipt."

Hidden in a secluded spot beside the mountain road, Tsubasa Kanno looked at the message that popped up on his communicator and then glanced at Upton beside him: "Good, the target's itinerary is fairly normal. Upton, get ready, we'll intercept them in the middle of the winding mountain road outside the western suburban cemetery."

"Understood, I've been waiting for this for ages."

Upton grinned, then leaped up and nimbly nestled behind a large tree beside the mountain path, completely concealing himself.

Time passed second by second, and from the end of the mountain road in the distance, the roar of a car engine gradually came, the sound growing clearer and clearer as it approached.

"They're here! Get ready."

Hidden behind a large rock, Tsubasa Kamino kept his eyes fixed on the approaching car in the distance, ready to pounce.

But before the vehicle could even reach the designated interception point, an unexpected turn of events occurred—

"boom-!!"

A deafening roar suddenly erupted, and a burst of flames exploded on the side of the first black minivan. The violent shockwave lifted the bulletproof vehicle off the ground, causing it to tilt violently.

A screeching sound of brakes rang out instantly, and the black minivan slammed head-on into the mountain road guardrail, its front end deformed and sticking up, billowing black smoke.

"It's an RPG—an enemy attack! Protect Lord Sato!"

The vehicles behind immediately braked sharply, their tires screeching against the ground.

Apart from two bodyguards who remained inside the two vehicles, the other eight beast soldiers all got out and activated their biological genes to transform into beasts.

"roar--!"

Roars echoed through the mountain path, black suits ripped apart inch by inch, muscles bulged, scales covered their bodies, and one after another, Gagir and Brener quickly took shape.

The two heat-cannon-shaped Vimoas standing at the back of the formation also completed their transformation.

"Fire! Defeat these monsters and show them the power of humanity!"

At a command, more than a dozen figures armed with guns suddenly emerged from the bushes on both sides of the mountain road.

The gun barrels were all aimed at the beastmen below, and the sound of gunfire instantly echoed through the mountains and forests, with bullets raining down on the beastmen.

"Hmph, useless, useless—"

Two Breners stepped forward, using their thick armor to block the bullets. The bullets struck them with a crisp "clang," sparks flying, but leaving only faint white scratches.

"What a weak attack, is it just tickling me?!"

Brenier spoke with a disdainful tone, but before he could finish his sentence—

"boom--!!"

Amidst a violent explosion, a shoulder-fired rocket accurately struck its head and neck, instantly engulfing it in flames and thick smoke.

—

Brenier exhaled a puff of black smoke, his upper body charred black, and cracks appeared on his carapace.

However, it did not completely lose its fighting ability; it was just a little slower, but it continued to move forward despite the fire.

At the same time, the two Vimoas behind them had completed their energy charging. The crystal emitters on their shoulders emitted a blinding yellow light, and several high-temperature lasers intertwined and shot towards the top of the mountain road, instantly cutting several large trees in half and sending flames soaring into the sky.

"Damn monster! Chief, we can't hold out any longer!"

One of the rebels roared as he watched his comrade being struck by a laser and instantly turned into a charred corpse, fear and wavering beginning to appear in his eyes.

At this critical moment, "Zzz—Zzz—"

Two azure blades suddenly slashed through the thick smoke, moving so fast they almost left afterimages.
