In Fuuto: Starting as a Kamen Rider 01

Page 119

The clash of swords and the sharp sounds of metal clashing filled the air.

Core demolitionists like Kurama Nene, under the cover of their teammates' lives, held their breath and carefully moved among the ruins, searching for the best throwing angle where the "227" might be.

The entire battlefield was instantly engulfed by the flames of the explosion and the deafening roars.

confusion.

Fierce battle.

However, just as everyone was fighting tooth and nail for that seemingly "perfect" tactic, the appearance of a figure caused a strange pause to occur for a moment on this noisy battlefield.

That figure stood out starkly from the entire battlefield.

It's Su Chen.

He did not join any team.

He did not execute any tactical maneuvers.

He didn't even bother with the annoying guard minions that had already rushed up to him.

He didn't even perform the most basic action of looking for cover.

He walked with a strange, steady, and unsettling gait, ignoring the crisscrossing artillery fire and deafening roars on the battlefield.

He went straight ahead.

A place for one person.

Heading towards the core of Jamato, the colossal castle that symbolizes absolute death.

His figure appeared incredibly small in front of the BOSS, who was as imposing as a mountain.

Yet it also exudes a resolute determination, as if it wants to trample the world under its feet.

"Hey! Has that new guy lost his mind?!"

The man with the pompadour, who was struggling to deal with the two guards Jyamato, caught a glimpse of this incredible scene out of the corner of his eye.

His movements faltered, and he nearly had his throat slashed open by the other's sharp blade. Startled, he scrambled backward, almost dropping his weapon.

"What...what exactly does he want to do?"

On the other side, even the bespectacled man who was responsible for analyzing the battle situation could no longer remain calm.

His tactical goggles were frantically analyzing Su Chen's behavior, but he could only come to one conclusion—suicide.

Behind his glasses, his eyes, which were always full of calculation, were now filled with pure shock and disbelief.

"Is this someone deliberately courting death?!"

"Get out of the way, you big idiot!"

From behind the cover in the distance, Kurama Nene also noticed Su Chen's outrageous behavior. She anxiously leaned out and shouted loudly, disregarding the danger, trying to wake up the man who was heading towards destruction.

However, Su Chen remained deaf to all the exclamations, curses, and shouts around him.

His world seemed to have been muted.

All he could see was that huge, ugly target ahead.

This scene was too bizarre.

So much so that all the contestants who were fighting tooth and nail subconsciously slowed down their movements and stared blankly at the lone figure walking towards destruction.

In their view, Su Chen's behavior at this moment could no longer be described as "arrogant" or "ignorant".

This is pure.

They were terrified.

A suicidal madness that abandons all thought.

The castle's enormous single eye had clearly noticed this tiny human who dared to disregard all its guards and come alone to challenge its supreme authority.

It let out a deafening, furious roar.

The sound waves transformed into a tangible impact, raising a layer of dust from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, all the menacing muzzles on its body emitted a sickening metallic spinning sound.

All the cannons were turned around.

The darkness was all focused on Su Chen alone.

Destructive energy began to converge wildly in the muzzles of dozens of cannons.

The blinding red light, like the gaze of hell, stretched Su Chen's shadow on the ground into an incredibly long arc.

next second.

This "fool" whom everyone considers to be will be blasted into utter nothingness by this barrage of attacks, leaving not even a trace of data.

Everyone held their breath.

They seemed to have already foreseen the horrific scene of that tiny body instantly evaporating in the devastating beam of light.

Dozens of dark cannon muzzles, like the piercing eyes of an abyss, locked onto the only figure standing in the center of the battlefield.

A destructive red light began to gather and compress deep within the cannon's muzzle. The ominous energy fluctuations made the surrounding air viscous, and each breath felt like inhaling scalding hot iron filings.

Faced with this terrifying firepower capable of instantly leveling a steel city, Su Chen finally stopped in his tracks.

He slowly raised his head.

There was no fear on that calm face, not even a trace of solemnity.

His gaze pierced through the boiling killing intent, calmly fixed on the colossal entity before him, named "Jyamato Castle," a symbol of despair.

In the eyes of the survivors, it was no longer a battle.

That was a trial.

Su Chen was the criminal who was about to be executed.

"ended."

"He's going to be completely evaporated."

"Too arrogant, why don't you transform..."

Despairing thoughts spread like a virus through the minds of every participant, completely extinguishing the last shred of hope in their hearts.

Time seemed to be stretched into an incredibly long thread at this moment.

Jyamato Castle is about to unleash a barrage of cannon fire.

The torrent of energy, powerful enough to completely erase Su Chen from this world, is already poised to strike.

Just a moment before this destruction was about to occur.

Su Chen finally made a move.

He didn't summon any drivers, didn't take out any fancy weapons, and didn't even adopt the most basic defensive stance.

He simply raised his right hand slowly, in an almost languid manner.

Then, he extended one index finger.

It was an incredibly simple and casual action.

Like a child pointing curiously at the rising moon in the night sky at dusk.

This action, in stark contrast to the surrounding atmosphere of devastation and destruction, created an incredibly absurd and intense contrast.

Then, something happened that left the world speechless.

Everyone's pupils contracted sharply in that instant.

They saw a glimmer of light begin to gather at Su Chen's fingertips.

The light was extremely faint, almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

It was not dazzling, unlike the ferocious, destructive red light of the castle Jamato.

It is not violent, but rather carries an indescribable sense of holiness and eternity, as if it came from the very beginning of the universe.

That is pure spiritual energy.

It was a trace of the most fundamental power that Su Chen successfully extracted from the "Eternal Memory" containing the supreme rules after Su Chen returned to 01 Technology Company, with the help of the super artificial intelligence Iz's initial analysis.

This power transcends physics and is above the rules.

He channeled this sliver of energy towards the massive energy shield of the Jamato castle, a shield said to be impenetrable by conventional attacks.

Gently, move forward a little.

There was no earth-shattering noise.

There was no cataclysmic impact.

"Boom."

A soft sound.

A faint, almost imperceptible sound, like a soap bubble blown by a child being gently popped by another finger, rang out clearly in this battlefield filled with explosions and screams.

The sound was very soft, yet it drowned out all the noise.

The next second, time seemed to be paused by an invisible hand.

The space froze.

The sound disappeared.

In that moment, all the contestants' eyes were frozen, filled with utter shock and disbelief.

The massive, seemingly indestructible energy shield of Jyamato Castle, capable of withstanding a saturation missile bombardment, began to change from the spot Su Chen touched with his fingertip.

A thin crack appeared out of nowhere.

That's not a physical breakage.

That was a kind of... conceptual "collapse".

"Click..."

The first crack appeared, like an irreparable scar etched onto flawless jade.
