Kamen Rider: Evolution

A scarlet snake tongue gently touched Isaka Shinkuro's face, and his smile grew increasingly maniacal.

Then all his clothes fell apart, revealing his body full of memory slots.

Even so, he remained unfazed, even though he was facing a giant snake that could swallow him whole.

Those golden snake eyes stared at him, completely covering his body like a huge shadow.

Just as he was about to transform into a hybrid, a golden memory with wings floated before him—the very Quetzalcoatlus he had been waiting for.

"A joint effort? It looks really exciting. Let's see if W can take this opportunity to reach its peak."

Jiang Xia murmured as he looked at the pitch-black hall.

With the help of Foundation X and Philip himself, the Ultimate Memory has already been completed; now all that's left is to check on Shotaro's situation.

"Your Excellency, what are you looking at? Is there something wrong with what Wakana made?"

"No, no problem. The mud doll that transforms using the Earth Drive is quite good."

Jiang Xia came to her senses and looked the mud doll hybrid up and down. Now all that was missing was for it to merge with Earth's memories.

The Earth memories that Sonozaki Ryubei gave to Wakana were a special substance that they had extracted from the spring over the years.

Moreover, it's a clay doll mixed with Wakana, so it can only unleash its full power in Wakana's hands.

This also shows that the moment the two sisters chose their memories, their fate was already sealed. The Gaia Memories of Destiny can truly determine the future.

Jiang Xia gently channeled his power into Wakana's Earth Driver, and then used the Earth Driver to directly invade the interior of the Mud Doll Memory.

The mud doll hybrid that Wakana transformed into seemed to have gained some kind of power; cracks even appeared on its body, and dark green data was constantly flowing out of it.

At the same time, Jiang Xia entered a series of pure white spaces and saw the mud dolls.

Her face became terrifying and deformed, and two more hands grew from her body, spreading out like four arms.

More importantly, her size became enormous, and many different symbols were engraved on her shell.

Beneath the outer shell, something seemed to be lurking, trying to break free of its constraints and constantly roaming inside.

She had just opened her mouth when her voice became low and ancient, yet strange and mournful. Her face became increasingly distorted as she waved her arms, which were several meters long.

Floating in the air, like a colossal sculpture, its body growing taller.

The surrounding dark green data began to expand continuously, shouting in a distorted and incomprehensible language.

Jiang Xia slowly approached; this must be what the Earth Witch will look like after the Mud Doll evolves into.

Although ugly, it possesses a divine quality that is fully connected to Earth's memories, and in the end, it could only become this ugly form.

Phew, but that's not the reason I came here this time; there are other reasons.

Jiang Xia's body slowly rose, scales covering his entire body, and then instantly expanded, his golden pupils widening.

The mud doll, which was originally in the state of an Earth witch, involuntarily retreated.

Its fierce, imposing, and sharp appearance tore through the human disguise, revealing its metallic wings.

He had clearly become a behemoth, his steel-like muscles undulating slowly, his horns bulging outwards.

It was much taller than the Mud Doll Memory, and it looked down at the Earth Witch.

The Earth witch was just like a weak little girl in front of it.

It opened its enormous mouth, big enough to swallow the Earth witch whole, and golden flames surged forth, burning the Earth witch's ugly face like ceramic being baked.

And its originally ugly appearance, under the burning of golden flames, actually emitted a kind of ancient luster.

The patterns on his body began to merge into one, and his originally ferocious face became softer. The complex patterns seemed to vaguely form some unknown information.

At this moment, the originally blazing dragon flames directly enveloped the Earth witch.

Jiang Xia gently opened her eyes and removed her hands from the mud doll-like body.

This should grant full access to the Earth Library.

The permissions granted to Philip and Wakana Sonozaki will belong to me after they evolve.

That's right, the privileges of this unevolved Earth witch have been infected.

Originally, after evolving, Wakana Sonozaki had higher authority on Earth than Philip, and could even block Philip from touching books.

To achieve the highest level, one cannot bypass the character of Sonozaki Wakana.

I originally thought that the memory would be completed after I ate Wakana Sonozaki's evolution, but things are not that simple.

When Sonozaki Wakana's authority surpassed Philip's, the memory had already merged into her body.

At that time, she could also enter the Earth Library without the aid of memory.

Unless Jiang Xia eats all of Sonozaki Wakana, he will end up like Philip.

They can only read most books, and there are some things with special powers that they cannot access.

This is also the conclusion that Jiang Xia reached when he studied memory and fully understood the Earth Shrine Maiden's plan.

So he came over.

"That feels so good. How did you do that? Is it the technology from Foundation X?"

She asked curiously, then transformed back into human form, experiencing the unfamiliar power flowing through her body.

Wakana Sonozaki was completely filled by Enka, to the point that she overflowed; otherwise, how could new power be born?

Fortunately, Kujo Aya was efficient enough, and the sinful souls kept coming in. Even if ten more Wakanas came, he could fill them up.

Just as Wakana was about to ask something more, a shrill scream interrupted her attempt to investigate further.

Inside the once magnificent hall, a middle-aged man dressed in simple clothes was kneeling on the ground.

Interspersed among them were frenzied sounds, which echoed everywhere, making the surroundings seem eerie.

Chapter 143 Kamen Rider Eden

He knelt on the ground, his limbs twitching uncontrollably, his original strength barely enough to support his body.

But he stood firm, and at that moment, the various memory interface patterns on his chest began to grow wildly.

At this moment, Isaka Shinkuro grinned and began to laugh loudly.

Standing to the side, Sonozaki Ryubei looked slightly surprised as she comforted Mick, who was trembling with fear.

Shinkuro Isaka did not become a hybrid; it's just that the memory interfaces all over his body became connected.

But this foreshadows something very dangerous for W.

That means the weather dopant that Isaka Shinkurou transformed into has evolved again, and it's very likely that it's not just a matter of getting a little stronger.

He was able to insert the Quetzalcoatlus's memory directly without any preparation, and even forcibly tore apart the Fear Swamp.

This means that his strength may be able to temporarily contend with the evolved Fear Memory, and more importantly, he has not yet become a hybrid.

"Clap clap clap clap." The sound of applause came from afar.

"It seems the museum has gained another powerful ally," Jiang Xia said.

"It was just good luck. I didn't expect that the well plate would be able to absorb the Quetzalcoatlus memory."

Sonozaki Ryubei said with a happy smile.

"Let me test your combat capabilities. If I'm satisfied with your performance, the investment in the museum next quarter is likely to increase significantly."

Jiang Xia looked at Isaka Shinkurou, who had already stood up as if nothing had happened, and turned to Sonozaki Ryuhei.

Whether he's satisfied or not is up to him to decide, so it doesn't matter.

"Very well, then please take note, envoy."

Isaka Shinkuro smiled slightly; he was currently worried about not having a place to test its power.

The combination of Quetzalcoatlus and the weather produced an effect far more powerful than the abilities he had absorbed before.

"Then let's go somewhere else." Sonozaki Ryubei transformed into a being of fear, enveloping Sonozaki Saeko and Sonozaki Wakana, who had rushed over.

The Fear Swamp possesses teleportation abilities, allowing it to move freely through the swamp, essentially making it a mage with the ability to teleport over a large area.

Jiang Xia stood still, simply wanting to observe the Fear Swamp's abilities and the principles behind its ability to teleport people.

How does it differ from spatial memory?

The speed was alright. Feeling the teleportation from the Swamp of Fear, Jiang Xia took the initiative to touch it.

The power of fear is indeed a very useful method for dealing with people who cannot be immune to mental attacks, but it is of little use against them.

An extreme form of fear memory might cause some trouble, but it's not quite there yet.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at a deserted place, the perfect spot for a battle.

Jiang Xia also took out the Lost Driver. This was a test, not a battle; otherwise, all beings would be equal under the Demon Emperor's sword.

Seeing the Lost Driver in Jiang Xia's hand surprised Sonozaki Ryuhei.

It turns out that the X conglomerate also collaborated with that woman, and it must have been doing so for a long time.

This gave him a strange feeling, as if his two hands had split apart and were fighting with each other, each trying to trip the other up.

However, it's surprising that Consortium X is investing in two opposing forces at the same time. Well, they are just businessmen, not warriors.

"Weather"

"henshin (transformation)"

When the Devil Memory and the Weather Memory activated simultaneously, the sky suddenly changed.

In the blink of an eye, dark clouds filled the sky, and a fierce wind and torrential rain poured down as if from the heavens.

A zigzag lightning bolt flashed through the clouds, and occasionally, straight bolts of lightning struck the ground in the pitch-black sky.

The wind howled, and the raindrops collided and shattered into fragments in the air.

As the whirlwind swept through Isaka Shinkuro's body, a weather memory appeared amidst a white light.

It seems unchanged from before, except that it has a pair of small wings on its back.

Jiang Xia's transformation, achieved using the Lost Driver, was far more exaggerated.

His entire body was covered in fragments, and two enormous, jet-black wings, large enough to blot out the sky, burst forth from his back and suddenly enveloped him.
