Kamen Rider: Evolution

This is a special language belonging to the Fangblood Demon clan, a kind of magic that can detect energy to the maximum extent. Although the bishop is not good at fighting, he has mastered all kinds of knowledge and magic, so he quickly confirmed Jiang Xia's words.

“I sensed it. There’s a very strong reaction from the Demon Emperor Stone inside, as well as the legendary power of the Puppet Beast Clan.” The bishop respectfully returned Rey to Jiang Xia.

"Chariot, I'll contact the Queen. I want to take you all to see the King."

"Okay." Jiang Xia nodded.

For him, this was indeed an unexpected surprise. He had only let the Blood Fang and the Legendary Beast fight each other. Whether it was depleting the Blood Fang's power or eliminating the Legendary Beast, he would still gain regardless of which side suffered losses.

If Taiya fails to defeat the King of the Legendary Puppet Beasts, then it will be Jiang Xia's turn to clean up the mess himself.

Although the power of the legendary Puppet Beast is difficult to digest, it can help Jiang Xia go further on the path of evolution. This is the power of the legendary Puppet Beast King.

Even if he eventually corrupts all the power of the Fangblood within him, he doesn't care, because he is just a human, not a Fangblood. A monster is a monster, and there is no difference between a Fangblood and a legendary beast.

Jiang Xia had a premonition that if he really swallowed the power of the legendary Beast King, the digestion process would be extremely painful and difficult, and might even last for a considerable period of time.

However, he glanced at his lifespan and realized he still had at least two hundred years left. Even if it meant sacrificing his lifespan, he was determined to absorb this special power.

Because the evolution of life is a process of change, if we don't even seize the opportunities right in front of us, then how can we talk about continuing to evolve upwards?

So what if there's a conflict? In any case, the stronger side eats the weaker side. The mummy and Medusa weren't strong enough, so they were eaten by Jiang Xia and turned into nutrients.

The evolution of life has always been cruel; only one side can survive.

Moreover, there is only a slight risk.

With his current power, he could live a carefree life. His immense strength would allow him to roam the world without restraint, and he could thrive whether he joined the ranks of humans or vampires.

But that's not what Jiang Xia is after. The moment he saw the conditions for crossing over, he began to subconsciously think about how to kill the Bat Fang Blood Demon.

At that time, he was even weaker than the bishop, but he did have the idea of ​​killing the king because the panel gave him the opportunity to fulfill his dream. Based on that alone, no one could stop him.

Chapter 79 Cadre Assembly

In the dead of night, the leaves trembled in the mournful sound of the wind.

It was already two in the morning. Darkness and silence prevailed, with only a faint breeze and the creaking of withered yellow leaves on the ground. In the rich moonlight, only a few shadows flickered in the dim lamplight.

They had already traversed the city and arrived at the entrance to a secluded grove of trees.

The further you go in this direction, the less visibility there is, to the point that you can't see your hand in front of your face.

The bishop, who was now closest to the king, stood at the very front. Fallen leaves continued to scatter and shatter in the air, the wind howled, and the bishop walked steadily forward, accompanied by two other people.

Faint conversations could be heard from behind. The bishop adjusted his glasses. "We're almost at the stronghold of the Fangblood Clan. There are special detection mechanisms and guards here. Stay close to me to avoid being attacked as intruders."

"Bishop, I didn't expect that even without Delan Castle, you would have found such a good location." Jiang Xia, standing behind the bishop, looked at the area covered by barriers and said.

This is the entrance to the forest. Most of the trees here are tall and their color is pure black, unlike ordinary trees. There are also faint traces of bloodstains on them.

This is a tree species specially cultivated by the Fangblood Demon clan. It is an exceptionally rare tree with an exceptionally hard trunk. Moreover, through the cultivation of the Fangblood Demons, it can produce a mist that greatly conceals sensory abilities. Its growth requires extremely high levels of life energy, and only the Fangblood Demon King, whose lineage has been passed down for a very long time, can afford to use his own life energy to irrigate it.

Taiya's father, the previous king, also kept Delan Castle here, which greatly concealed his whereabouts. Furthermore, within this dense forest, only guards and officers with permission can transform into their Fangblood Demon form.

Normally, vampires would have their fighting power greatly weakened here, and then be executed by the guards.

“You are the new generation of warriors, and you should not have been here before. This is territory that has belonged to the royal family for generations,” the bishop said.

“I think I understand now. This is where the Delan Castle used to be,” Jiang Xia said clearly.

The bishop was furious. He knew it was a humiliating thing, but he couldn't stop someone from mentioning it to him. This guy was definitely here to cause trouble.

Unlike Jiang Xia, who looked relaxed as if she were on vacation, Shen Yang looked up at the dark sky, remained silent for a while, and muttered to herself, "Does Taiya live here? But I don't want to see him right now... Every time I hear his name, I feel uncomfortable."

She followed the bishop inside. It was very quiet. Under the bishop's guidance, they avoided all the traps and mechanisms. As the one who set up most of the defenses, he knew every plant and tree in the area very well. They made their way through the winding paths, their steps quick and silent.

As Jiang Xia's eyes gradually came into view, a tall building hidden in the woods appeared. The building was shrouded in mist and its powerful energy rose and fell, indicating the potential and power contained within that young and powerful king.

The value of the Blood Demon's Bat Fang, which was also destroyed by Kurogane, is still increasing.

They were getting closer, closer to the heart of the deep forest where even strong light could not penetrate for very long.

The bishop's expression gradually became respectful, and Jiang Xia didn't even need to look to feel the submissive aura emanating from him.

Then, the bishop pushed open the door covered with stained glass, revealing a staircase covered with a red carpet.

The place remained as quiet as ever, with the silver light imbued with the power of the Demon Emperor slowly illuminating the hall.

Jiang Xia walked in, glanced at the chariot mark that had suddenly appeared on the back of his right hand, and didn't say anything, letting the moonlight containing the power of the Demon Emperor shine more on him.

At the same time, Shen Yang also discovered that her Empress power was generating a subtle resonance here, and complex patterns appeared in her left palm.

A pale blue aura emanated from Shen Yang's body, but unlike before when it covered the surrounding area, it now only lingered on her surface, as if suppressed by something.

Tap, tap, tap!

A series of footsteps suddenly echoed in the silent hall. A dazzling white light shone down from one side of the hall's steps, revealing a door that suddenly extended to the left and right, appearing as if it had merged into the sides of the wall.

The area began to tremble slowly, the light gradually expanded, and the view became clearer.

A figure emerged from the light. Jiang Xia immediately recognized the royal seal on the right palm from the white light. It was of the same type as the seal on his own body, with similar yet different patterns. However, it was closer to Kiva's seal, only much smaller.

"Your Majesty, I have brought back the Queen and the new chariot," the bishop said respectfully, bowing slightly. He had completed the task assigned to him by Taiya.

"You've worked hard, Bishop. Well done, bringing Shenyang back so quickly, along with the powerful war chariot," Taiya said. "The power of the Fang Blood Demon has once again reached its peak."

“Yes, the Bloodfox clan will be revived in your hands,” the bishop said.

Taiya smiled confidently and said, "That's for sure."

"You must be Suzuki Fukao. The bishop mentioned you to me. This is our first formal meeting. Although I'd love to spend some time with you, let's wait until we deal with the legendary Puppet Beast clan."

Taiga looked at Suzuki Mio with a hint of admiration in his eyes, but there were more important things to do right now.

After the cadres have assembled, they will prepare to deal with the legendary puppet beast.

That's why we summoned them here; we really couldn't wait any longer.

The Blood Demon and the Legendary Puppet Beast are natural enemies because their power comes from the Demon Emperor's power and they are both related to the moon, just as the kings of the two races cannot summon the moon to help them at the same time.

The Blood Demon King can summon the moon to amplify his fighting power, but legend has it that the Puppet Beast Clan possesses the Eye of the Moon. The two are mutually exclusive, like water and fire, and can only be destroyed if one is destroyed.

Taiya also acknowledged the strength shown by Jiangxia, the new chariot, and his ability to protect the newly awakened queen.

The bright moon hung quietly in the sky, its deep red, enormous eyeball continuously projecting its power towards this place, plunging more and more people into madness and suffering.

The power of that eyeball was boundless, and the bright moon was gradually approaching, as if the moon, which had existed for billions of years, had suddenly come to life.

Those infected were completely out of control, and in a state of near-complete mental derangement, they began to attack other humans or blood goblins.

Scales and bandages began to grow all over the human body, and they were almost completely turning into monsters.

Sharp teeth and leather constantly appeared on their bodies, like a chaotic dance of demons, and ordinary people without the ability to resist would find it difficult to survive here.

If this internal strife continues, not only will humans perish, but even the vampires will gradually face extinction.

Chapter 80: The Gathering of the Toothless Blood Demons

DP Enterprise, 23rd floor, deepest level.

In the conference room on the top floor of DP Company, portraits of people who have made great contributions throughout history are hung on the walls, and a man in black sits at a table that occupies most of the conference room.

Most of them had gray hair and were very old, like old people who had lived for many years. Their demeanor was not something that could be cultivated in this era, but rather like that of people from a hundred years ago.

"Next topic: the legendary beast has now been resurrected, and many blood demons have been brainwashed. If this continues, our losses will be too great," said an old man in a white shirt and black suit, sitting on a leather seat.

"Yes, it is said that hundreds of years have passed since the Puppet Beast was sealed away by the previous king. We are all blood demons from that era."

"That was the most devastating battle for us Vampires. I never thought that hundreds of years later, we would be able to face the legendary Puppet Beast again."

Their conversation revealed that they were not human, but monsters who existed independently of human society, yet indirectly controlled many people.

These ancient beings have lived for hundreds of years, and most of their contemporaries, the Blood Devils, have already turned to dust due to the exhaustion of their life energy.

Those who survived were not only those with longevity, but also those whose strength far surpassed that of ordinary blood goblins.

After entering the modern era, these old men rarely took action themselves, except to protect the new king, Taiya.

The vampires who are able to sit here are the survivors of battles that wiped out other races.

Of course, there are also those who are powerful or who have entered here as teachers who have taught the king.

For these old fellows, nothing should have disturbed them except for the change of the throne, but the atmosphere here today is unusually heavy.

While they seemed to be reminiscing about the past, they all harbored a deep-seated fear of the legendary puppet beast, and they glanced more than once at the empty chair at the end of the conference table.

That was the king's throne, and the bishop who usually served the king was not there. Under normal circumstances, they would not be so nervous, but the moon was getting closer and closer, and the losses of the Fangblood were also increasing.

At this point, Wang's disappearance made it hard for them not to have doubts.

"Where did the king and the bishop go? Why haven't they shown up yet? Legend has it that the puppet beasts are almost at our doorstep," one of the fierce-looking old men said.

"Wait a bit longer. Wang has his own plans; at least he won't desert his post," said the old man in the white shirt and black suit.

His name is Kurosawa. He was entrusted by the previous Empress Maya to protect Taiga from the time Taiga was born. He has a deep affection for Taiga and understands Taiga's personality and actions very well.

"At least the bishop should have explained the specifics, but now he has disappeared along with the king."

Other sounds rang out in the room.

The bishop's prestige here is arguably the highest. He has served the Toothbloods diligently for many years, and almost everyone here knows the bishop before they know Tooth.

Although they sometimes expressed dissatisfaction with Taiya's behavior, the bishop always suppressed these discontents for Taiya, giving him a safe environment.

It can be said that the bishop could use the power here to depose Taiya from his throne at any time, because Taiya has not yet truly inherited the power left by his father.

Wang Yin only stated that Taiya's bloodline was indeed royal, but that did not mean he could bear the responsibilities of a king.

Of course, if Taiga inherits the power of Dark Kiva, that's a different story. As long as one possesses the power of Dark Kiva...

Even if you don't have the royal seal, you can still lead the Blood Fangs, because Dark Kiva represents absolute authority and violence, the kind that leaves no room for resistance.

That's why the bishop has always been so concerned about the succession of Dark Kiva, because it represents the legitimacy of the king.

As for Kurosawa, who was asked by Maya to take care of Taiga, he was at a loss. If the bishop were here, it wouldn't matter even if Taiga didn't take care of anything.

But the bishop is not here now, and he cannot control all the toothed vampires. The threat of the legendary puppet beasts is imminent, and even if he opposes them, he will basically be unable to stop them.

As they discussed and devised a plan to launch a preemptive strike, bypassing Taiya and mobilizing their forces to directly attack the lair of the legendary Puppet Beast.

Just then, a soft sound came from the conference room door, like sunlight breaking through dark clouds, as someone forcefully pushed open the conference room door.

At this moment, the vampires who were discussing the matter seemed to have been given a tranquilizer and fell silent.
