Chapter 158 Real Men Never Look Back at Explosions...Huh?

Chen Qiang adjusted his position and posture to the position with his back facing the front of the mecha, and then pressed the green button again.

Time returns to flow.

"When -" The alert Monroe DeHart's eyes were dazzled. The weird colorful man had already changed his position and put on a "real man never looks back to see the explosion" pose in front of the enemy mecha. .

next second.

The cockpit of the attacker's big red mecha exploded, as if it had been hit by a missile from the front.

The huge mecha fell down with a bang, stirring up dust all over the sky.

"..."

It's a pity that it didn't really explode, Chen Qiang thought, it's rare for him to put on this pose.

The place was dead silent.

No one saw clearly how Chen Qiang moved, and no one saw clearly that he was able to handle the big red mecha.In the eyes of the crowd, Chen Qiang just said a word, and in the next second, he teleported to the attacker, who had already fallen.

Everyone stared at Chen Qiang.The morale of the raiders hit rock bottom.In the distance, the other two task forces have also entered the display range of the "Myth Map".

"I……"

Chen Qiang opened his arms.Time to say something, he thought.

[You have entered the transformation form for 2 minutes and 30 seconds]

……what?
[After 3 minutes, if you continue to maintain the transformed state, it will cause certain physical and mental damage, which will accumulate over time, so please be careful.25 seconds left...]

Hey?
What's wrong!

3 minutes!I can only become a superman for 3 minutes at a time, am I still a Kamen Rider? This is obviously Bump Man!
Chen Qiang used the shortest time to estimate whether he would be able to escape from everyone's sight if he turned on "super acceleration" now.

...maybe doable?
No, the risk is too great.After releasing the transformation, it will bump into the other two task forces who are closing the circle outside.Even if he could avoid those two task forces, he might bump into some passers-by.

If it were an indefinite module, maybe Chen Qiang would also choose to try to play hide-and-seek with the masses, and experience the real life of the lower class people in the 30th century.
But now, there are key side missions, and Chen Qiang also hopes to conduct investigations with a more credible attitude as much as possible.

"Sissi." He spoke through the system to Sissi, who was chasing and killing the enemy's ambush.

"Mr. Chen?"

"Don't chase them, they will be handed over to the special task force outside to collect the net," Chen Qiang said, "come back to me to protect me."

"Mr. Chen, you still need..."

"Just come back..."

Although I don’t understand it, for bodyguards, they still have to obey their employer’s orders.

Cecilu drove the "Century Leader" back to Chen Qiang.

"I'm sorry." Chen Qiang said in a voice that everyone could hear, and then said "The fortress of sanity cannot belong to you" from his former enemy "Time Stands Still".

"'Fortress of Sanity' is not my property alone, but..."

He pulled out the USB stick in his belt.

"...I, Chen Qiang, have the right to protect what I create."

Transform, release.

[Chen Qiang charm check 27/43 success]

"He is..." Everyone was in a dream.

With exactly the same clothes and the same posture, Chen Qiang and the bronze statue in the distance seemed to blend into one.

"This is not a virtual network." Wang Ran patted his face to confirm that he could not log out.

"I... have met this gentleman," Shi Gandang, who arrived at the scene at some unknown time, said. His voice was not loud, but everyone in the mecha or exoskeleton could hear it clearly, "In the morning At that time, he was still with that outstanding gentleman!"

"That is to say..." Everyone slowly recovered.

Silent.

Chen Qiang's heart skipped a beat.

Even if his image, demeanor, and strength are comparable to the legendary Chen Qiang, perhaps in the cognition of these people, it is still impossible for people 1000 years ago——

The "Fortress of Reason" side did not move.

Cecilu, who was guarding in front of Chen Qiang, was waiting in full force, but the enemy had no intention of launching a surprise attack on Chen Qiang, even though he was only a flesh and blood body now.

"Mr. Chen." Gu Shiyin, who led the air and sky task force, rushed over in time.

"It's me." Chen Qiang nodded.

[Chen Qiang’s credit rating test was successful at 97/99]

When the great man conflicted with common sense, everyone struggled in unison.

But in the end, they chose to believe in the great man they knew.

"It's Mr. Chen Qiang."

"Mr. Chen Qiang!"

"The great Mr. Chen Qiang."

Starting with Shi Gandang, everyone began to bow and salute to the owner of the fortress of reason.

"The enemy is about to flee." Chen Qiang's pupils shrank.

The attackers have reacted.

What are you doing in a daze, all the legendary characters have appeared, why don't you run away before everyone reacts and wait to be caught!
[Cecile's combat check was 6/99 successful]

[? ? ?Failed dodge check 82/35]

"drink!"

With a coquettish cry, Saixi cut off the knee of the last red mecha regardless of her speed.The mecha fell to the ground.

"Caught alive." Sissy said excitedly.

"Close the net." Chen Qiang ordered indifferently.Three Mobile Task Forces are already on the move.

The enemy has already become a turtle in the urn, and it is difficult to fly.

Chen Qiang turned his head and looked at the stuffed Lan Tigos behind him.

Is it because the transformation form has spiritual blessing?I didn't feel anything before, but when I glanced at the monster again, the long-suppressed fear in Chen Qiang's heart emerged again.

"Don't watch it anymore." Chen Qiang didn't want to suffer another sanity check because of his carelessness.

……

midnight.

Sanity Fortress Branch in City D.

Ding!
"The biometric code verification has been completed." The emissary who came to City D from the headquarters of the "Fortress of Sanity" in orbit around the earth closed the password suitcase, "Welcome back, Mr. Chen Qiang. All your permissions have been restored."

"Has this kind of thing happened before?" Chen Qiang asked curiously.

"As far as I can remember, this is the first time I have received you," said the tall, thin emissary politely, "but the records I just received show that I have received you twice in the last 200 years. According to the procedure, after you leave, all creatures in this time and space that have come into contact with you will receive Class A amnestics, even Miss Gu Shiyin is no exception."

"..."

Well, even the process has come out, I dare to love the future and I am addicted to time travel.

"No matter what time your memory is in, and what method you use to get it back," the envoy bowed deeply to Chen Qiang, "'Fortress of Reason' is your eternal home."

I'm the boss, not some passing Kamen Rider...

"Please don't worry about us, Class A amnestics won't cause long-term side effects," the messenger said gently, "Just give us orders. According to one of your previous orders, I'm here to tell you..."

Well done, you guys.

"...Don't let me make too much noise?"

"No. It's 'the system's concept of time and space is more indifferent than you think. You can complete side missions and hidden missions at any time, just play to your heart'," the messenger said, "By the way, I will accept the first quest in 5 minutes. An amnestic, so it's okay if you complain about me."

"I guess that last sentence was also said by my previous self."

"You are so wise."

Suddenly, the image of the envoy coincided with one of Chen Qiang's classmates, who was also a former employee of the Fortress of Sanity.

"Your surname is Bai... No."

Bai Shaobao is from Oroqen.I remember that his full name is Baier Kekudi——

"Mr. Bai Shaobao is my grandfather." The messenger was neither humble nor overbearing, as if he had guessed what Chen Qiang was thinking.

"...Do you know who Mr. Bai Shaobao's wife is?"

"My grandma is Ms. Shi Li." The messenger said gently.

Oh, so they did... get together.

"still have a question……"

　One of the similarities between Cyberpunk, Kamen Rider (especially older works) and Cthulhu Mythos is that they are all styles that face alienation.When the protagonists face the dark forces that corrupt them, they fight back, but their own power is often a part of the darkness.Heroes always have to distance themselves from mainstream society to some extent.At this point, the cyberpunk-style indifferent environment, the Kamen Rider's enemy and the same origin, or the protagonists in the original Cthulhu who found their non-human blood in their bodies have something in common.This mod involves part of the punk settings in "Cthulhu Technology", but this book is not a mecha or Kamen Rider novel after all, and it will still be based on running groups (of course, there are also running groups in the real world) ) mainly.
