Kamen Rider: Evolution

Suppressing his fear, Tan Masamune raised the God Slayer in his hand and charged towards Jiangxia.

"You're starting with Crimson Lotus Dragon Explosion Sword again. How much do you like this move?"

Jiang Xia looked at the God Slayer slashing towards him, reached out and grabbed it. Before the Crimson Lotus Dragon could even roar, the flames that had just risen were extinguished.

Tan Zhengzong was stunned for a moment, and the next second he felt a sharp pain burst from his chest. It turned out that Jiang Xia's arm had hit his chest.

He felt as if he had been hit head-on by a tank; the armor on his body seemed to be cracking, and even his bones were making sounds as if they were about to break.

"boom!"

Tan Zhengzong, struck by the immense force, was sent flying backward at an extremely high speed, crashing directly into the rock wall and creating a perfectly concave circle.

A very obvious red bold Hit effect popped out from Dan Masamune's body, which is the correct feedback for hitting in the game.

"Cough cough cough, my invincible power didn't work at all, it didn't even reduce the damage, why is that?" Tan Masamune coughed a few times and pulled himself off the wall. He was almost knocked out of his transformation by a punch.

Only the invincible can fight the invincible, but even so, it shouldn't be this strong.

"Why should I tell you?" Jiang Xia shrugged.

Dan Masamune stood up and suddenly swung the weapon on his arm, but this time, it was not the God of War's longsword, but the shield in his left hand.

As Dan Masamune waved his arm, the divine barrier made of golden strips of steel on his upper arm suddenly stretched out, like a steel tail.

The steel tail snaked and swirled in mid-air before attacking Nicole from behind at an angle almost too fast for a human to react to. If it hit, Nicole would definitely die without transforming.

However, Jiang Xia will not give him that chance.

Jiang Xia's body instantly dissipated into a phantom image, and the next second, his figure re-condensed in front of Tan Zhengzong.

Before the steel tail could strike Nicole, Jiang Xia grabbed Tan Zhengzong by the neck with one hand and pressed down hard.

"Boom!"

Dan Masamune's body once again came into close contact with the rock wall, and the extended Divine Barrier in his hand returned to its shield shape due to the huge energy impact.

This attack completely stunned Tan Zhengzong, but the attack wasn't over yet. Jiang Xia grabbed Tan Zhengzong by the collar, pulled him out of the rock wall, and then punched him in the shoulder, slamming him to the ground with a super loud bang!

Cracks spread across the ground. Jiang Xia pulled Tan Zhengzong up again, clenched his right fist, and suddenly a pale green energy appeared in the void, automatically gathering on his fist as Jiang Xia swung it.

This time, Tan Zhengzong reacted in time. Before Jiang Xia's fist could hit him, he used the Divine Barrier to block his chest, and his whole body radiated invincible golden light.

Jiang Xia punched the Divine Barrier, producing a resounding boom like a great bell.

"Haha, it's blocked." Tan Zhengzong was very relieved, but the next second he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound rose from his shield, and with a bang, the shield of the game god shattered into fragments. This was a genuine divine weapon.

"Pause!"

Dan Masamune panicked and used all his strength to activate Time Stop, and grayish-white energy instantly swept across the game domain.

Having just been nearly attacked, Nicole froze in place as she tried to dodge.

But Jiang Xia's attack hasn't stopped yet. His dark green fist not only continued to move even though time had stopped, but also broke through the invincible defense that Tan Zhengzong's body had unleashed, and punched him hard in the chest!

"boom!"

A gigantic hit appeared in the air!

Tan Zhengzong's body went limp, and he collapsed to his knees, powerless.

Jiang Xia didn't hesitate. He crouched down slightly, and a golden clock wheel suddenly appeared on the ground. He was positioned at the center of the overlapping clocks, while Tan Zhengzong was positioned at the edge of the clock hands.

Now, kneeling on the ground, Dan Masamune is like a prisoner about to be beheaded, only able to wait for the executioner's blade to fall.

"Kimewaza!"

"The decisive blow!"

"Critical Crews-Aid!"

Jiang Xia unleashed a burst of light that seemed to seal the end, followed by a spiral kick!

The minute hand projected onto the ground also rotated counterclockwise following Jiangxia's kick, like a golden longsword slashing down on Tan Zhengzong's neck.

Golden lightning shot out like a torrent, but quickly stopped in mid-air, because this was a realm where time had stopped.

"The final blow!"

"The golden Chronos should be discontinued by now!"

Jiang Xia walked on lightning, surrounded by silence. Her skirt swayed slightly, like a victorious battle flag. Tan Zhengzong's time stop had ended, but his time stop had just begun.

"Boom!"

A massive, lava-like torch rose from behind Jiang Xia, who raised his hands, enjoying the intense heat of the raging flames.

This fluctuation also covered the hidden room of Kamen Rider Chronicles. Explosive cracking sounds rang out rapidly in the game world, finally reaching its limit. At this moment, the game world turned into pixels and was forcibly restored.

After the game world collapsed, the real world reappeared. It was a square with bluestone bricks paving the ground and trees planted all around to fill the green space.

"It seems we've gone a bit too far," Jiang Xia chuckled.

The gaming industry was completely crushed, which was indeed a bit too much.

Chapter 568 Team Battle Preparation

"bump!"

As the towering torch ceased its eruption, Tan Zhengzong, his face contorted with bruises, collapsed to the ground. The Chronos cartridge or Administrator cartridge he had been clutching tightly in his right hand shattered completely under Jiang Xia's attack—a destruction that even a reload couldn't save.

Just as the Honkai Impact 3rd could not be resurrected after dying in the Time Stop Domain, the Administrator Cartridge was also destroyed by Time Stop. Just as Jiang Xia said and did, the Golden Kronos, or Kronos for short, is now completely out of print!

Lying on the ground, Tan Zhengzong gripped the gold card with only the handle remaining in his right hand. He struggled to lift his eyes to look at Jiang Xia, who was gleaming in the light. He could only lie helplessly on the bluestone bricks, too weak to even get up or swing his arms.

His pupils flashed again, the pale gold and dark green within them gleaming, suggesting he was a human born with heterochromia.

His lips parted slightly, as if he were saying something, whether it was a roar of resentment or a sign of preparing for a desperate fight.

Jiang Xia lowered his gaze and looked at Tan Zhengzong through the dark green mask. Tan Zhengzong could not even make a sound. It was as if something was taking away his power and making him gradually weaken.

Finally, after Dan Masamune finished speaking with his last bit of strength, his body twitched, and the cassette tape he was holding tightly fell onto the blue bricks, clattering and rattling. At that moment, his eyes, which seemed to be mixed with paint, dimmed, revealing his original chestnut-colored pupils.

This company, which had calculated almost everything, treated everyone as commodities, and attempted to make Huanmeng Company the best game company in the world, was arrogant and had once manipulated Dan Kuroto. At this moment, Dan Masamune's heart had stopped beating, his pupils were dilated, and there was no need to even send him to the hospital or issue a critical condition notice.

Dan Masamune died without any surprise. His heart stopped beating, his blood began to congeal, his pupils dilated, his breathing stopped, and his body was becoming stiff.

The final boss of Kamen Rider Chronicles... Successfully defeated.

Of course, this is only the first step. Dan Kuroto, a game developer, is a very creative and excellent game maker.

Of course, the boss he personally designed wouldn't just end so easily. When players thought they had won, they were actually triggering a game easter egg that he had personally planted.

The game's climax only begins after Dan Masamune, as the boss, is completely defeated, soaring to its peak and bringing players a surprising, or even frightening, emotional experience. A good work is one that can evoke human emotions.

Defeated and lying dead on the ground, Dan Masamune's eyes suddenly snapped open, jolting him awake from his death. His gaze swept over everything before him like a chilling wind, while a powerful, solemn, and grand background music began to play from nowhere.

A vast game domain, accompanied by a deafening roar, suddenly expanded outwards, instantly enveloping the entire neighborhood. From the sky, the emerald green energy field appeared as a massive semi-circular sphere, its internal physical laws being overwritten, distorting reality.

All of this signifies that the final boss has been resurrected once again.

Jiang Xia's lips curled slightly, and he chuckled softly. He was not surprised at all by what was happening, and simply stood there quietly, appreciating everything that was unfolding before him.

Because this is actually part of the game rules. When you don't understand the game rules, you stumble and struggle, feeling terrified by all the changes.

Once you have successfully grasped all the changes in this world, no matter what happens, you will not be surprised. Instead, you will feel calm and graceful as the future aligns with your predictions.

Tan Zhengzong's eyes flashed with golden light, and he floated up from the ground, standing once again on the stone bricks of the park.

His eyes were crimson gold, cold and indifferent, aloof and superior; these were not human eyes, but those of the God of Games.

This is a hidden game rule in Kamen Rider Chronicles: when the final boss is defeated, he will undergo his strongest evolution. Only by defeating the final evolved Game God can the game be completely cleared.

"Finally, I finally have the chance to complete my final evolution, hahaha!" Dan Masamune said, but his voice became as explosive as thunder and as torrential rain poured down from the sky.

This is not Dan Masamune, but the game god. As the final boss, he naturally knew about this hidden resurrection mechanism. So after his defeat, he just hid inside Dan Masamune's body and watched Dan Masamune being beaten without any intention of taking over the body.

They were waiting for this opportunity after Dan Masamune's death, just like when he was sealed away, he used the Game God Virus to control the Honkai Impact 3rd and unseal himself.

He prefers to lie low and hide himself when he doesn't have a definite opportunity, but when the opportunity comes, he will seize it. This kind of character is better than most people.

A gust of wind, carrying a dark golden shockwave, burst forth from the Game God, causing the trees in the surrounding green belt to sway wildly. However, Jiang Xia made a completely illogical move in the face of this situation: he took the crystal card out of his belt and deactivated his transformation.

Actually, it's very easy to understand from his perspective. From a game's point of view, when you enter the final level of a game, you will definitely check your current equipment, attributes, health bar, etc., and prepare to complete the final boss battle at the highest level.

A good game will maximize your interest when you're closest to completing it, and the same is true for Jiangxia now.

Now that the game god has evolved, using Kronoz's appearance is no longer appropriate; changing to a better-looking skin is the way to go.

Of course, the game god obviously thought so too. Dan Masamune's body was not his true form at all, but just a shell. His pupils were already bright to the limit, and the pitch-black smoke gradually engulfed Dan Masamune's body.

The pitch-black smoke, mixed with lightning, expanded rapidly, gradually forming a huge cross that looked like it was burning. The smoke formed a tornado that swirled around the monster whose shape could be vaguely seen.

When the smoke finally dissipated, the evolved form of the game god revealed its true form. It resembled a giant cross, but instead of outstretched arms, it had two fully formed dragon necks on either side.

The game god has no hands or legs. Its hands are two dragon heads with open mouths and sharp teeth like daggers, and its lower limbs are a super huge golden sword, making it look like a monster that combines its legs as a weapon.

Those long-necked creatures, resembling clawless snakes, coiled in the air, countless eyes blinking on their long necks, the purple light in their pupils flickering in the air.

Its chest is covered with lava-like cracks, and its ferocious head is topped with a huge blade. It is a true killing machine, standing tens of meters tall. With the ability to use every part of its body as a weapon, it truly deserves to be the final boss of Kamen Rider Chronicles.

And its name is no longer Game God, but Super Game God, an existence capable of destroying humanity.

"I will exterminate all of humanity, including you!" The Super Game God roared, opening his enormous mouth that could swallow a car whole, and looked down at Jiang Xia with his eyes made of crimson diamond-shaped red crystals.

These are its true eyes for seeing; the enormous eyes covering its body are merely weapons for attack.

"Exterminate humanity? You? Don't be ridiculous. Humanity isn't that easy to exterminate. You're just a program that has developed self-awareness. You can't even leave this street." Jiang Xia said mercilessly, as if he had heard something laughable.

"Roar!"

The Super Game God suddenly opened his mouth, but this time it wasn't the mouth on his head, but the dragon heads on both sides of his body.

The dragon's neck and arms stretched out like a python making an attacking motion. The blue flames in the center of the huge dragon's mouth quickly condensed and formed several burning fireballs, which were then blasted towards Jiang Xia on the ground!

Although it is an intelligent program, its intelligence surpasses that of most people. The best option is to take it by surprise and launch an attack to kill it directly. Now, Jiang Xia has deactivated his transformation and is facing it with his mortal body, which is the best opportunity.

"boom!"

Jiang Xia's figure was unsurprisingly engulfed by the fireball, which was powerful enough to blow up a building, and the shockwave from the explosion whipped up a fierce wind.

This kind of power could instantly deplete the health bar of players with base attributes below level 99, forcing them to quit the game. Not to mention those who haven't transformed yet, they would have absolutely no chance of survival.
