Knights of the Digital World

He would surely die if he didn't escape now, but even if he wanted to escape, the speed at which the greatsword was slashing made his chances of survival extremely slim.

However, Puppetmon's mischievous nature also gave it immense courage at this moment. Faced with life and death, Puppetmon did not choose to run away. Instead, it stretched out its neck, its steel nose extended considerably, and began to spin rapidly, trying to burrow into War Wolfmon's body, hoping to inflict some damage.

The War Wolf Beast didn't care; instead, it straightened its chest and let the Puppet Beast attack it.

He was covered in thick armor, especially the armor on his chest and abdomen, which was exceptionally thick and provided amazing protection. He was not afraid of the puppet beast's dying counterattack.

Puppetmon chose to fight back, thus completely missing his chance to escape. "Trinity" sliced ​​through his body, taking his life.

"What a pity... there are still so many games I haven't played yet..."

Puppetmon showed no fear of death, only murmured a few words with a hint of regret, and a digital code appeared on its body.

Wolfmon acknowledged the opponent's strength and, without saying much, took out its Digivice to scan his digital password.

…………

"Earth Destroyer!"

A super-fast positron laser was released from the head turret of the Thunder Beast, piercing through the chest of the Volcano Beast, which had been speaking sarcastically and rudely to Chunping. The laser flickered on and off.

Even if it means death, I will say it: you are a...fat man!

The volcano beast clutched its chest, pierced by the laser, and managed to utter these words with all its might. Its body suddenly turned black, and a digital code appeared on its waist.

As Junpei pulled out his Digimon to scan the password, he scoffed, "I already told you! I'm not fat, I'm voluptuous!"

"Remember, it's 'full-figured'!!"

As Junpei watched the volcano beast's egg fly away, he couldn't help but shout, wanting the volcano beast to remember the difference between fat and plump!

However, before he could say anything, a repulsive force acted on his body, pushing him out of the space.

…………

"Glacier Torpedo!"

Basamon roared, its retractable hair on its head blocking Ashuramon's movements, and the sharp blade plunged deep into Ashuramon's chest.

Ashuramon let out a groan. In this life-or-death moment, his hidden nature resurfaced, and he smiled at Bassamon, saying, "Thank you. Well done!"

Bassa was somewhat bewildered; this was the first time he'd encountered such an opponent. What kind of tactic was it to get hammered and still smile at others?

However, Barthon still politely replied, "Thank you for the compliment. You are a very strong opponent as well."

Ashuramon stopped speaking, only a smile played on its lips as it welcomed its rebirth—its digital code appeared on its waist.

Bassamon scratched his head, then took out his Digivice and scanned Ashuramon's Digicode.

Before he could explore his surroundings further, a repulsive force pushed him away.

…………

"This guy is amazing!"

"How many have she taken down? Doesn't she get tired?"

"Ah, her figure is rather dazzling..."

"You bastard, remember your love for Lady Nanamon!!"

"But don't you think the Shuz Beast is really dazzling?"

"...It smells so good!"

The bee-beasts surrounded Shuzbeast, chattering amongst themselves.

At this moment, the Shuz Beast was floating in the air, panting heavily, with its wings drooping slightly.

Nearly a hundred Bee Beasts lay dead beside Shuzmon. Even though they were only at the Adult stage, their numerical advantage and skillful coordination made Shuzmon struggle to cope, expending a great deal of energy.

By now, even Beemon was starting to feel tired of fighting. Shuzumon hadn't gone all out; she knew these Beemon had also been lured there by Nanamon, so she was being very careful with her attacks. This was also why she was so exhausted.

Beemon and Shuzmon had no personal grudges against each other, and they were very united. They also saw Shuzmon's actions and their initial hostility gradually disappeared.

Ultimately, they are just fans of Nanamon, not subordinates. They like Nanamon and are willing to help, but that doesn't mean they have to work like subordinates to fulfill their superiors' demands.

Shuzmon's actions dispelled their hostility, and they began to feel that the battle was meaningless. In fact, more and more Beemons came to like Shuzmon and admired her as a powerful, kind-hearted, and tenacious female Digimon.

As for Nanamon, it was gradually forgotten amidst the dazzling presence of Shuzmon.

Finally, the bee-mon stopped and looked at Shuzmon with admiration:

"Your character shines so brightly, we've made up our minds! From now on, we're your fans! Shuzmon, go go go!"

"???"

Shuzmon tilted her head, completely baffled by the thought processes of these bee-like beasts. But before she could speak, a repulsive force acted upon her.

…………

"Dark Plunder!"

After chasing Tengumon for a long time, KaiserLeomon finally seized an opportunity and pounced on the enemy.

Although Tengumon sensed KaiserLeomon's attack first, his stamina was no longer enough to allow him to escape. He could only howl in pain:

"I really just want to chat with you!"

But KaiserLeomon remained unmoved, tearing out Tengumon's Digicode with a single claw, transforming into BlackLeomon, scanning his data, and then remarking:

"What's there to talk about? Can't you see what I'm thinking? Just say what you want to say, but you just won't. There's nothing I can do about it."

Shaking his head with slight regret, Black Lion Beast prepared to go find his younger brother and friends, but felt a repulsive force that pushed him out of the space.

.........

Within the steel space of the dozen or so beasts, the Silver Mirror Beast observed the situation unfolding within their bodies and couldn't help but sneer:

"Hmph... It's almost over, everything is about to end!"

Chapter Twenty-Two: Silver Mirror Beast VS War Wolf Beast

"It's so cold! Is this... the Ice Zone?"

After defeating the two evil warriors, the Fire Dragon Beast stepped into a new space. Upon entering, it was immediately hit by a continuous blast of fine snow. The drastic change in temperature also caused it to shiver involuntarily.

However, as a warrior of fire, Firedramon wasn't particularly afraid of the cold. Tiny flames rose from his body, restoring his warmth.

"I won the battle, but I didn't leave. So you still want to get my data?"

The Fire Dragon Beast surveyed the space covered in snow, analyzing the situation of the dozen or so beasts in its mind.

"Next, it'll be time for Digimon to come and fight me..."

Sure enough, a sound came from the wind and snow:

"Welcome, welcome to...the land of extreme cold."

Amidst the swirling snowflakes, a figure slowly emerged. He resembled the Lion Beast, except his fur was entirely white, his expression serious, and he exuded an imposing aura.

"I am IceLeomon, the guardian of this place. Defeat me, and you can pass through."

After speaking, IceLeomon didn't hesitate and threw a punch:

"Ice Beast Fist!"

…………

The War Wolf Beast was not teleported out either; it stepped into a new space, silently calculating in its mind:

"They're not sending me out because they want to collect my data? Let me think... I've opened up two spaces, and it's no problem for my brother and Takuya to open up one. That makes seven. Only three spaces are left. I wonder what Silver Mirror Beast will do?"

"Welcome! Welcome to my Steel Space!"

Speak of the devil, and he appears. The War Wolf Beast was just wondering what the Silver Mirror Beast would do when the Silver Mirror Beast stood right in front of it.

"Silver Mirror Beast!"

The War Wolf Beast was completely caught off guard when the Silver Mirror Beast suddenly appeared before him, causing him to shout and assume a fighting stance.

"Oh dear, how unfriendly. Since you don't want to get closer to me, let's just begin~ Our battle~"

Seeing the reaction of the War Wolf Beast, the Silver Mirror Beast shook its head regretfully, its body slowly sinking and disappearing.

The War Wolf Beast took two steps forward in surprise, looked down, and found a mirror on the ground, smooth and reflective, showing his image.

The War Wolf Beast suddenly looked up and around, seeing countless mirrors covering the entire space. With this movement, his image was reflected throughout the entire space.

"The Steel Space... This place is perfect for Silver Mirror Beast to shine... He has the amazing ability to enter mirrors, and he can use it to his heart's content here. So, the first thing I need to do is destroy the environment here!"

Silver Mirror Beast has demonstrated his bizarre ability to move through mirrors on numerous occasions, especially during his battle with Parad, where he used this ability to evade Parad's attacks, leaving a deep impression on the War Wolf Beasts watching the battle.

At this moment, the War Wolf Beast, unable to find the Silver Mirror Beast's true form, remained calm and prepared to first disrupt the Silver Mirror Beast's battle environment.

Fighting in this environment full of mirrors gives Silver Mirror Beast a huge advantage.

The War Wolf Beast raised the "Roland 2" on its left arm, without any target, and simply unleashed a barrage of firepower, with a large number of missiles shooting out and wreaking havoc on the surrounding environment.

The missile struck the surrounding mirrors and exploded with a deafening roar. The smoke from the explosion gradually filled the entire space.

The War Wolf Beast didn't care about anything else; as long as it destroyed the environment, it didn't care whether anyone could see it or not, and continued to launch missiles indiscriminately.

The bombardment lasted a full minute, with Roland 2 missing its target several times, before the War Wolf finally stopped and silently waited for the smoke to clear.

However, after the smoke cleared, what appeared before the War Wolf Beast was a scene almost unchanged from before.

If it weren't for the few mirror surfaces that were melted and shattered by the high temperature and impact of the missile explosion, the War Wolf Beast would have thought that the bombing was just its imagination.

"Such a hard mirror. It seems that high temperatures are more effective than simple physical attacks. Fire can melt steel, right? This space is actually more suitable for Takuya to use. I wonder how effective the Trinity will be against these mirror attacks? Dual Sword Slash!"

The War Wolf Beast gripped the greatsword "Trinity" in its right hand and slashed at the steel mirror beside it at near-light speed.

The exaggerated speed and the greatsword's sharpness easily cleaved the steel mirror in two, sending it crashing to the ground.

However, the War Wolf Beast's expression wasn't relaxed; instead, it became even more serious: "The Trinity works, but it's too exhausting. This shouldn't be happening; its toughness is ridiculously exaggerated..."

In reality, the Steel Dimension mirrors in the original work weren't that many, and their hardness was far inferior. Vulcan's punches and kicks could easily shatter the surrounding mirrors.

However, in the original story, Silver Mirrormon had no intention of fighting here. His trump card was Dark Ultimate Seraphimon, created by absorbing data from Ultimate Seraphimon. His purpose in appearing in the Steel Dimension was merely to lure out Firegothmon.

Now, Silver Mirrormon has failed to obtain the data from Ultimate Seraphimon, and he can only rely on his own strength, so the situation is naturally different from the original TV series.

In order to maximize its power, Silver Mirror Beast specially enhanced this Steel Space.

As a steel warrior, Tenbeast is proficient in all ten elemental powers, but he also has a preference. At least, his steel power is the easiest and most convenient for him to use.

Moreover, since the dozen or so beasts are strengthening their own internal space, it will be even more effective.
