Guyver Armor: KAP-2

"It's Geo...he ran into Akafiel!"

"If that's the case, then Bakas's behavior makes perfect sense..."

He tapped the edge of the control panel lightly with his fingertips, his thoughts racing. "But it's still a bit strange. He didn't forget to take Xiao Kui with him when he left?"

Kamino Tsubasa's voice carried a hint of seriousness; the situation had developed somewhat beyond his expectations.

"However, this also indicates that, following the original story's trajectory, the other Beast God Generals will arrive soon!"

"It's moved so much earlier than the original timeline. Was it a butterfly effect I caused...?"

He knew very well that with their current strength, they were no match for multiple Beast God Generals. Their only chance of winning was to be the first to activate the Relic Spaceship.

Without the slightest hesitation, Kamino Tsubasa made a quick decision and turned to walk towards the door.

"There's no way around it, there's no time left to look for Xiaokui!"

He shouted at Upton, who was still holding the operator bound:

"Let's go, Upton! There's no time left. We'll have to settle our score with Barcas another time."

"Follow me to the bottom of the base first. We must activate the ship's core before Kronos and the Beast Gods discover the ship's awakening!"

"Tch, that old guy got away fast this time!"

Upton snorted coldly, then released the taut tail whip, letting the operator fall heavily to the ground with a cry of pain.

The next second, he moved, and a sharp black claw blade suddenly shot out from his fingertip, piercing through the heads of the three operators in front of the control panel like lightning!

"Hmph, I, Upton, can't just come all this way for nothing. I'll collect some interest this time, and settle the score with him later!"

With that, Upton quickly turned around and followed in Kanna's footsteps.

The two figures quickly disappeared into the passageway leading to the bottom floor, leaving only a few cold corpses and the still-lit monitoring screen in the control room.

……

At the summit of Mount Mena, a thick layer of leaden-gray clouds hung in the sky.

The air was so humid it seemed you could wring water out of it, a sign that a storm was imminent.

"Boom—boom boom—boom boom—"

Four or five thunderous roars, shaking the heavens and the earth, suddenly exploded.

"Tch, this awful weather is making me feel really uncomfortable! All the captain knows is to send the two of us to guard the gate."

"That's right! But I heard there's quite a commotion down there, at least here we don't have to risk our lives..."

Two beast-like soldiers guarding the main gate of the base were bored and chatting idly under the eaves.

Suddenly, a massive bolt of lightning, as thick as a bucket, slicing through the thick clouds like a giant silver serpent, struck straight down towards the mountaintop!

The blinding light instantly engulfed the entire mountaintop, turning the world into a ghastly white expanse.

As the lightning slowly faded, and before the dust and debris on the mountaintop had dissipated, nine black figures of varying heights suddenly appeared out of thin air.

They stood or hovered, surrounded by a faint, invisible energy field. A tremendous sense of oppression spread out like a tide, causing the surrounding air pressure to drop sharply.

Ninth of the Twelve Gods of Chronos, all mobilized!

"What was that noise just now? Who was there...?"

Just as the two gatekeepers realized what was happening and were about to step forward to ask, their thoughts were forcibly taken over by an invisible spiritual force.

Their eyes instantly became vacant, their bodies uncontrollably collapsed to their knees, their foreheads pressed against the cold rock, frozen in place as if they had been suddenly petrified.

"Oh, so this is the Japanese heritage site of Mount Minakami? Come to think of it, this is my first time here."

A tall, thin, black man stepped forward, a fleshy growth bulging in the center of his forehead gleaming faintly.

He surveyed the surrounding rocks and the base entrance with interest, his tone relaxed yet arrogance evident. The condition of the two beastmen was his doing.

It was none other than the seventh Beast God General of the Kronos Organization—Ragunagu de Kurmek.

"That's right, the base is right here." The blond man beside him nodded, his tone of certainty.

He had a handsome face, his features like a meticulously sculpted marble statue; he was the tenth Beast God General who had previously listened to Bakas's report.

Friedrich von Prudda.

"So, Bakas and Geo are down here?" The speaker had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a cold expression.

He had a head of black, side-swept bangs that covered one of his right eyes. He was Li Yantui, the eighth beast god general from China.

"Um?!"

The black-haired figure at the head of the group suddenly frowned. The energy around him was the most intense, and a crystal stood upright in the center of his brow like a third eye.

It is the third Beast God General—Sinn Rubeo Yamnicas.

He turned his head sharply, his gaze as sharp as a hawk's, locking onto the west side:

"Didn't you sense it? There are still traces of huge gravitational fluctuations in that space; it's extremely unstable."

"It's Geo?! He's the best at manipulating gravity among us."

A young voice suddenly rang out, and the eleventh Beast God General—Edward Carleio—changed his expression drastically.

He was tall and handsome, but now he was filled with astonishment:

"But with such obvious marks, he wouldn't... have used that move, would he? That's a forbidden technique, something that shouldn't be used on a planet!"

"In that case, I did indeed sense a residual gravitational energy reaction in that direction..."

The short figure floating in the air spoke slowly, its tone filled with deep contemplation.

"Moreover, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but deep inside this underground base, there seems to be some kind of faint sensation."

He was dressed in loose robes, with white hair and beard; he was none other than the Fifth Beast God General—Cabrar Han.

"But..." Cold sweat instantly broke out on Kurmyk's dark face, and his pupils contracted:

"Given Geo's strength, who on Earth could force him to use this move voluntarily? What exactly is he using it on... or whom?"

His doubts caused a chill to run down the spines of all the beast gods present.

Calleo's face turned deathly pale, and he exclaimed in shock, "Could it be... that Akafiel arrived first?!"

These words exploded like a thunderclap on the mountaintop.

The air froze instantly, and all the Beast Gods showed expressions of disbelief. Even the invisible energy field fluctuated violently.

If Geo had used that forbidden technique on Akafiel... then Akafiel would be now...

Cabral exchanged a glance with Kurmek and another thin figure standing nearby.

"In any case, it was Dr. Bacchus who summoned us here."

Shin was the first to recover, and his tone regained its usual authority:

"The situation is unclear at the moment. Let's enter the base first, find him, and then we'll make further plans."

Nine black figures turned towards the base entrance and headed into the base.
