Chapter 11: An Adventure at All Costs
Chapter 11: An Adventure at All Costs
The indiscriminate destructive nature brought by the "Iron Needle" greatly satisfied the destructive desires of some Gurongi.
Daguba stared at Black Kuuga with burning eyes, expecting him to bring him a more exciting battle, and was even ready to actively embrace that power!
But the "Obelisk" that was ready to go stopped at the critical moment.
High emotions are stuck at the most important moment.
This feeling is excruciating.
Daguba immediately glared at him angrily: "Why stop? Unleash your most powerful strength - Lindo warrior!"
But the black newborn Kuga remained motionless.
The originally cracked "obelisk" closed again, and the dark energy filled inside slowly dissipated.
Daguba became more and more unhappy when he saw this situation. He roared angrily, rushed directly to the altar and punched the black Kuuga!
Bang!
The black Kuuga was knocked back by the punch, his back hitting the stone tablet hard, and his pair of dark compound eyes that fell on Daguba again revealed hatred.
So after he stood firm, he swung his fist and hit him with the same aggressiveness!
A powerful force was transmitted to the solid body through the fist. Daguba faced the fist head-on without dodging. He laughed loudly and raised his fist to hit down again without hesitation!
The pitch-black fist and the giant white fist touched each other.
"boom!"
A fierce energy spread out from between the two people. Daguba only took a step back, but Black Kuuga took several steps back.
But he was extremely eager to fight at this moment. After steadying his feet, he took the initiative to rush forward again!
"Good! Come on! Hahaha——"
Daguba shouted excitedly, and was knocked off the altar by a punch from the black Kuuga who rushed over. The latter jumped down and chased after him, using the momentum of his fall to launch an even more powerful attack!
"Oh!"
Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
Black Kuuga's fists kept landing on Daguba, but the next moment, his fists were once again firmly grasped by an unshakable palm.
"No, it's not enough. This power is not enough."
Daguba looked at him with a teasing expression.
The black Kuuga's held right fist was trembling slightly, and his dark compound eyes could not reveal his thoughts.
However, in the ignored corner, his left foot that was stabilizing the ground flashed a flash of light, and then Black Kuuga suddenly raised his left foot and kicked Daguba's waist with lightning speed!
"boom!"
After taking back the "Obelisk", the sealed energy condensed here is raging violently!
Daguba, who was kicked in the waist, seemed to have suffered a severe blow and was forced to loosen the left hand that was restraining Black Kuuga. He took a few steps back and suddenly knelt on one knee.
Gurongi also has a "belt" on its abdomen.
——Kidru.
It evolved from a meteorite fragment called "Kibolon" by the Gurongi clan.
Although they are called differently, "Kibolong" and "Yamadam Spirit Stone" are actually similar.
Therefore, after the Gurongi clan absorbed the power of the meteorite, that power not only transformed them into the form of wild beasts, but also formed the "Gidru Belt" in their bodies.
Therefore, attacking the belt is equivalent to attacking the fatal weakness.
Both Kuuga and Gurongi have this weakness.
However, the belt has the function of self-repair, and its defensive power is also good, which may be even stronger than the body evolved by the spirit stone.
But the attack just now was the result of Kawahara gathering all the sealed power in his body.
Although he couldn't guarantee that he could kill Daguba with one kick.
But at least this guy can be hurt.
At least……
This will allow Riku - the real "Kuuga" to defeat this guy!
After that kick, Black Sky collapsed, supporting himself on the ground with his hands, gasping violently, and his pitch-black compound eyes slowly turned dark red.
"What... did you do to me?!"
Daguba on the opposite side held the Kidru belt around his waist with one hand and glared at him fiercely with ferocious eyes.
Kawahara was panting, completely speechless.
He felt that his strength and consciousness were rapidly fading away, his brain felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds, and the exhaustion made him want to just close his eyes and sleep till the sun went down. He didn't want to think about anything else at all.
But Daguba's voice was crystal clear.
So Kawahara looked in the direction of the voice, then raised his hand with an effort, and raised his middle finger to Daguba again in his blurred vision.
——Everything I want to say is in my hands.
The next moment, Kawahara lost his strength and fell to the ground.
The darkness quickly faded from him, and Kawahara transformed into his white nascent form again, before changing back to his human form.
"Damn it!"
Daguba did not understand the meaning of the gesture, but he felt like he was being played.
After cracking the ground with an angry punch, Daguba stood up angrily and walked towards Linduo who was lying opposite him.
But just as he clenched his fist, ready to smash the head of this bastard who was playing tricks on him, a figure suddenly rushed over from the side!
The running blue figure was as fast as lightning, and in the next moment it instantly turned into a fiery red, and then it stepped on the ground and jumped up!
The right foot burning with sealed energy kicked down from the sky, and Daguba, who was caught off guard, was kicked away!
"Oh!"
The huge and strong body fell on the altar, smashing the stone tablet with a loud bang, and the whole person was crushed underneath by the broken stones.
The fiery red figure then landed on the ground. After glancing at Daguba who was kicked away, he immediately ran towards Kawahara who was lying beside him.
"Teacher Kawahara! Teacher Kawahara——"
Rick turned the person lying on the ground over, but no matter how he shouted, Kawahara didn't respond at all.
His gaze suddenly moved downwards and fell on the Aguru belt around Kawahara's waist - cracks had already appeared around the belt.
What does it mean when the Agur belt is broken?
Rick didn't learn this lesson, but he had a vague premonition in his heart, so he immediately put his palm on the belt.
The "Yamadam Spirit Stone" in his body responded with a burst of heat, and a flash of lightning flashed across the broken Yaguru belt.
Just in the next moment.
His palm was suddenly grabbed by another hand.
"What are you doing……"
"Teacher Kawahara!"
Rick looked at the face in surprise.
Kawahara squinted weakly, then let go of his wrist and pointed backwards in a daze.
"Solve that thing for me first..."
The violent and evil aura was about to rise to the sky, and that kind of anger even made his mind irritable.
Rick was a little anxious: "But——"
"Go!"
Kawahara emphasized his tone seriously.
Rick fell silent.
Seeing his reaction, Kawahara took a deep breath and was about to use the village and his sister to persuade him, but the silent Riku suddenly put him down and rushed over the next moment.
Kawahara: "..."
So he held his breath again.
Behind him came Daguba's roar that shook the sky, mixed with humiliation of the Lindo warriors and the dull sound of fists hitting each other.
Kawahara supported himself on the ground with both hands, and with some difficulty he supported his upper body and turned his head to look.
I saw Daguba being knocked away by a punch from the Titan Kuuga.
——It feels great.
Kawahara lowered his head and sneered.
Daguba, who fell to the ground, even slid back several meters, leaving a mark on his back from rubbing against the ground, and the Kidru belt around his waist also had cracks.
I strode towards him from the opposite side, holding the Titan Sword. Although I didn't say anything harsh, anyone could feel his furious fighting will and the powerful force that was about to erupt!
As the distance got closer, Rick shouted, rushed over and raised the Titan Sword high!
He stabbed the Titan sword containing the sealed energy fiercely!
"Bah!"
Daguba's hands suddenly grabbed the sword.
The two sides competed with each other in strength. Daguba, who had a face like a devil, grinned fiercely, and the sword he caught trembled violently.
Rick, who was looking down from above, stabbed hard, and as he shouted again, the tip of the Titan Sword suddenly touched Daguba's chest.
The seal energy formed into streaks of lightning that raged out, covering Daguba from all directions, penetrating into his body, and condensing into a golden seal symbol on his chest.
"Linduo warriors - how dare you!"
Daguba roared.
The shattered "Gidru Belt" could no longer resist the sealed energy. The muscles on Daguba's arms throbbed violently, but no matter how furiously he struggled, Riku held down the Titan Sword that was stabbing at him.
Finally, the golden symbol released its sealing power, spreading towards Daguba's body with his chest as the center.
As he let out his last angry roar, Kidru's belt was completely turned to stone.
The next moment, the King of Gurongi, who had turned into a sealing stone, stopped moving.
Rick panted and slowly stood up.
……
Last hit...
Last hit...
Seeing that there was no movement over there through his blurry vision, Kawahara began to think about finishing off the enemy again. He even wanted to prop up his body to deliver the last blow.
Rick can't kill life, but he can.
Kawahara struggled to stand up, his pair of dark eyes filled with terrifying murderous intent, like an irrational beast awakening.
"He defeated Daguba. After he becomes the strongest here, he will also be the next one to summon the Ultimate Darkness."
A cold voice suddenly sounded beside him.
Kawahara was stunned for a moment and looked sideways.
The girl who had just crawled out of the ruins seemed even more unruly, but her eyes remained indifferent, as if the one who failed in front of her was not the leader of their Gurongi clan, but just a symbol that could be replaced by anyone.
After he looked over, the girl also looked over and tilted her head.
"Do you want to... choose a cemetery now?"
Kawahara suddenly said this.
So No. B1 in front of him looked a little confused.
Kawahara immediately whispered, "No, Riku will not become a miserable warrior, and he will never bring about the Ultimate Darkness. He will only move forward and become the savior of this era."
What he said was like a whisper, and the low voice almost disappeared.
B1 seemed to want to listen hard, but the next moment, a golden light flashed in front of her.
"call out--"
The energy arrow of the Pegasus crossbow instantly pierced through her chest, the golden seal symbol appeared, and the stone seal energy began to spread throughout her body.
Looking at the girl falling down without any resistance beside him, Kawahara curled the corners of his mouth.
"Teacher Kawahara, are you okay?!"
Rick ran over quickly after the attack.
Kawahara looked at him motionlessly: "Rick, I..."
He really wanted to kill Daguba.
But he suddenly realized that if he really did this next, he would be completely submerged in darkness. Even if there was no room left to become the ultimate darkness, the "Sacred Spring" in his body would no longer exist.
So Kawahara's heart also retreated at this moment.
He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word. He felt ashamed of his sudden timidity and confused about what would happen next.
Will he retreat because he thinks he can still be resurrected with the help of the Agur Belt?
But is it really okay?
His belt was already broken and now it was shattered. His body was already tattered and now he was always teetering on the edge of losing control.
——Because this belt is abnormal.
From his initial transformation to now, he had been worried all the time that he would go berserk, and now the destroyed village and the people who had been hurt had already proven what he had just done.
——This belt can easily cause loss of control.
He already had a previous life, so there was no need to cling to the dangerous and unknown next life. And perhaps this period of time was just an adventure given by the gods?
An adventure at any cost.
"Teacher Kawahara?"
"Teacher Kawahara!"
"Teacher Kawahara——"
Rick's shouts, louder and louder, rang in his ears.
Kawahara finally responded: "I can hear you."
But he didn't look at Riku, and just snatched the Pegasus Crossbow from him without saying a word (Rik didn't dare to use force), and then the broken Agul belt flashed with lightning, and the white newborn Kuuga covered his body vaguely.
Rick looked at him in astonishment.
"Teacher Kawahara, you..."
Kawahara didn't respond this time. He just took a staggering step forward and aimed the Pegasus crossbow at the waist of Daguba not far away.
His Yaguru belt was flashing with electric light, like a light bulb that was about to break. The red spirit stone in the center of the belt slowly began to crack, and the light flickered back and forth between fiery red and darkness.
The red compound eyes of the newborn Kuga slowly darkened.
This is the final blow.
Once you make up your mind, you must use all your strength regardless of the cost!
The compound eyes of the newly born Kuga flickered, and the last bit of energy released from the Agur belt wrapped around the Pegasus crossbow.
He had to ensure that the blow was powerful.
But just before Kawahara pulled the trigger.
His brain suddenly suffered a heavy blow!
bang——
His strength and consciousness were lost in an instant, and the eyes of the newly born Kuuga became silent. Just before he was about to fall, a pair of hands immediately supported his body.
"I'm sorry... Mr. Kawahara..."
……
……
Although the King of Gurongi has been defeated, the other Gurongi scattered throughout the village are still rampaging, and they will not retreat just because of Daguba's defeat.
Once a beast dominated by power falls into the instinct of killing, it will no longer have any rationality.
Rick needs to go and clean up those monsters.
Even though the village was in ruins and there was no visible sign of activity, Tianma Kongwo could clearly sense the lives hiding in the cellar and even hear their suppressed cries and breathing.
He moved the broken wall that blocked the entrance to the cellar, and placed the unconscious Kawahara in this room, but did not disturb the people below.
Rick walked out of the house again, using his extraordinary perception to listen to everything, locking onto the Gurongi who was causing chaos everywhere.
The new partner Golem has flown over, ready to take him high into the sky to snipe the enemies.
But right now.
Rick suddenly realized something, so he turned around and quickly came to the petrified Daguba.
There was a faint flash of white lightning at the waist of the King of Gurongi, so that the power that sealed him began to be offset, and pieces of stone chips shattered and fell from Kidru's belt.
"how come……"
Rick stared at the scene in a daze.
So, just now, Mr. Kawahara wanted to kill this Gurongi completely?
I want to make the other person's life disappear completely...
But no, if he had used the final blow at that time, he had a clear premonition that Mr. Kawahara would never come back, and he also believed that the teacher must have felt the same way.
But why do we still insist on taking action?
Rick also knew the reason.
because of him--
He couldn't kill the enemy outright.
Rick looked down at his hands. Even until now, he still couldn't do something like "taking a life". For some reason, it seemed like a promise.
But to whom had he made such a promise?
It could be a dark dream.
On his first night as a Kuga, he dreamed of his sister's crying face in a terrifying darkness.
Then, he seemed to make a promise.
——"I will never fall into darkness, so please smile!"
Rick clenched his fist slightly.
However, if we allow the Gurongi clan to be active in this land, the village will always be threatened and my sister will not be able to live in peace.
He couldn't kill Gurongi, but he had to do something to eliminate these possibilities!
After loosening his fist again, Riku looked at Daguba who was gradually breaking through the seal, and his firm eyes showed a certain determination.
——He wants to seal all the Gurongi!

The next chapter is the modern era. Although it is a little different from the expected end of the tenth chapter in the ancient times, the difference is not that big! Hehe~
