Some bullets penetrated the already damaged walls, leaving several charred bullet holes.
In the end, all the light projectiles ran out of energy and dissipated into the air, none of them hitting the target.
They completely lost their accuracy.
The virus dopant's bizarre and unpredictable abilities completely suppressed W's nine basic combo forms, which it was so proud of!
Neither the swift cutting of the wind, the skill of the ace, the scorching heat, the fierce blows of steel, nor the strangeness of the moon goddess, nor the precision of the trigger, can cause it any effective damage.
The balance of power in the battle is rapidly tilting in a desperate manner toward the viral admixture.
After W's attacks proved ineffective time and time again, it was instead continuously eroded by the viral energy emanating from its opponent.
His movements began to visibly slow down.
Every punch and kick felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead.
Even maintaining the transformed state has become somewhat difficult.
Unstable light flickered intermittently at the edges of W's body, a sign that the energy supply was insufficient and the transformation was about to end.
"Damn it... this guy's power is just too much!"
Shotaro gritted his teeth, sweat already soaking the hair on his forehead.
He could sense that Philip's mental energy was also rapidly depleting.
In the instant he was distracted, the viral admixture emitted a sharp hiss.
Its translucent chest shone brightly with green light, and a virus energy bomb, condensed to its extreme and exuding an aura of filth and destruction, condensed and took shape at an astonishing speed.
On the surface of the energy blast, countless tiny viral runes were pulsating wildly.
The next second, this deadly energy blast, accompanied by a piercing shriek that tore through the air, slammed straight into W's chest.
Shotaro's pupils contracted sharply as he watched the devastating attack rapidly enlarge in his field of vision.
He wanted to escape, but his body became stiff and sluggish due to the continued erosion of the virus.
For a moment, they were unable to make any effective dodge maneuvers.
The shadow of death instantly enveloped him.
Chapter 41 Destroying the Mammoth, Reigning Supreme! Absolute Power, One-Sided Overwhelming Domination
Faced with the surging viral energy blasts, Kamen Rider W's body was like a small boat in a raging sea, on the verge of being completely swallowed up at any moment.
The aura of destruction was already palpable.
Shotaro and Philip could even feel the burning pain on their skin, as well as the nauseating, evil energy fluctuations.
Their resistance seemed so pale and powerless in the face of that sheer destructive power.
"Is it going to end soon...?"
A flicker of despair crossed Shotaro's mind.
At this critical moment, when life and death hung in the balance.
"Buzz—Boom!!!"
A deafening roar, as loud as if splitting the clouds and shattering rocks, suddenly erupted from the sky directly above the television station without warning.
The sound was far superior to any known aircraft engine, carrying a primitive, mechanical savagery and roar, as if the sky itself had been torn open with a huge gap.
The sound waves, like a tangible impact, caused the ground to tremble slightly.
Everyone in the square, whether they were panicked civilians, police officers on high alert, or W and his companion on the verge of despair, instinctively raised their heads and looked toward the source of the sound.
A huge shadow, like a rapidly expanding ink dot, suddenly enveloped the sky above them.
The sunlight was completely blocked.
The daylight seemed to be instantly cut off, plunging into a brief twilight.
A colossal object was descending vertically from the clouds at an astonishing speed that completely defied the laws of physics.
That's no ordinary aircraft.
It has a ferocious and unique outline, like a prehistoric giant insect.
A giant mechanical locust.
Its outer shell gleams with a cold, hard metallic luster, yet its lines are extremely simple and smooth. Every curve and every corner perfectly interprets Zero One Technology's unique design aesthetics—a futuristic style that cleverly blends simplicity with an explosive sense of power.
boom! ! !
There was absolutely no buffer.
The enormous mechanical locust, with unparalleled force and immense power, crashed heavily onto the central square outside the television station.
The incredibly hard granite floor, like thin ice struck by an invisible giant hammer, instantly cracked in all directions like a spider web, sending countless fragments of stone and dust flying high into the air.
The violent shockwave generated by the impact transformed into a visible hurricane, sweeping in all directions.
The surrounding vehicles were blown about, the fragile billboards were uprooted, and countless windows were reduced to dust with a sharp cracking sound.
The virus hybrid that had been so arrogant just moments before was so terrified by this sudden, unexpected event and its devastating impact that it instinctively staggered back several steps.
The energy blast it had been condensing in its mouth dissipated due to this sudden change, and the attack came to an abrupt halt.
For the first time, a look of near-fear appeared on its distorted face.
The eyes of Sonozaki Wakana, which had been dimmed by despair, suddenly burst forth with an unbelievable light of surprise.
She recognized the iconic mechanical creation.
Meanwhile, the two Kamen Rider W characters, Shotaro and Philip, were filled with undisguised shock and bewilderment.
They had never seen such a massive and imposing personal armed vehicle.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, the mechanical locust's cockpit, covered in heavy armor, emitted a soft mechanical hum and slowly opened upwards.
A tall, slender figure, bathed in the soft light emanating from the cabin, calmly stepped out.
Su Chen.
The hem of his black trench coat fluttered slightly in the aftershocks of the air currents, and his face carried a perfectly measured hint of apology.
"Sorry, it seems we're a little late."
He first turned to Sonozaki Wakana and gave her a reassuring smile.
That smile, like the spring sunshine, instantly dispelled most of the gloom in Wakana's heart.
Then, Su Chen's gaze slowly moved and fell on the ugly-looking virus hybrid that exuded an ominous aura.
The gentleness and smile in his eyes vanished at that moment.
Instead, there is an extreme cold, like the Siberian cold front, and an unquestionable absolute majesty.
"That's all for now."
His voice was not loud, but it carried a resolute tone, like a pronouncement of judgment.
Before he finished speaking, Su Chen moved his arm slightly and took out an object from the opened cockpit.
That was a program sublimation key.
But it was completely different from any of the sublimation keys that Shotaro and Philip had ever seen, or even any of the sublimation keys that Su Chen had ever used before.
It is enormous.
Its size is almost the same as an adult's fist, or even larger.
Rather than a key, it's more like a miniature mecha core, its surface covered with intricate golden patterns and energy indicator lights, shimmering with a breathtaking light.
【BreakingMammoth!】
A deep, powerful electronic sound effect emanated from the key itself, announcing its name.
Holding the giant key, Su Chen strode toward the silently standing mechanical locust.
He held the key high, and then, as if performing some kind of sacred identity verification ritual, inserted it with perfect precision into a specially designed groove on the side of the locust mech.
Click.
A crisp metallic clanging sound.
【Arksapprovalforbreaking.】
Almost simultaneously, a majestic, solemn, and emotionless electronic synthesized voice, seemingly emanating directly from the Ark satellite high in the sky, resounded throughout the entire city's sky via the city's communication network!
The voice carried an undeniable authority.
That is the ultimate authorization from a higher-dimensional being.
【Progrise! Gigantmechanix! Breaking Mammoth! Largerthanlifetocrushlikemachine.】
Accompanied by the rousing and heavy metal rock-style transformation sound effects, and the English solfège that proclaimed its characteristics, a true miracle officially unfolded before everyone's eyes.
The giant mechanical locust, which was originally intended as a flying vehicle, began to emit deafening roars of mechanical friction and deformation from its sturdy outer armor!
Countless parts began to move on their own.
Its body rapidly disintegrates, unfolds, folds, flips, and reassembles in a precision beyond human imagination!
The clanging of metal, the surging of energy, and the turning of gears intertwine to create a violent and magnificent symphony of steel.
The locust's head, thorax, legs, wings... everything was changing shape and combining into a completely new structure at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Finally, this incredible transformation process came to an end.
The mechanical locust had transformed into a massive, overwhelmingly powerful set of reinforced outer armor, featuring alternating silver-white and bright yellow stripes.
This suit of armor was perfectly integrated with the position where Su Chen was standing!
The light dissipated.
A colossal creature, over ten meters tall, even approaching fifteen meters, reigned supreme over the square that had just been ravaged.
Its entire body gleams with a cold, metallic silver-white luster, accented with bright yellow that symbolizes warning and power.
Its shoulders protrude forward like the tusks of a mammoth, its breastplate is incredibly thick, and its legs are strong and powerful, making it resemble a mobile war fortress, exuding a suffocating aura.
