Chapter 152: with translation of chapter title

The drizzling rain and faint white mist turned Fengdu completely into a land of water.

The Feng Du Tower slowly rotates, rainwater washing its steel-like support structure and, together with the crowds whether or not they carry umbrellas, forming a peaceful city.

Fengdu being called a peaceful city is not without reason.

Although the Museum organization exists, using Memories as claws to plunder resources, overall, public security is still not bad.

At this moment, Jiang Xia wears a black raincoat and holds a blank book in his hand.

As he walks toward the edge of Fengdu City, perhaps that is why he finally fully knows how large Fengdu really is.

While walking, he also looks at the corresponding things in the book; what he sees with his own eyes and what he sees through the book are not quite the same.

In the pitch-black alley, the circular light cast by the lamps moves forward along the ground already severely flooded.

Basically there are no lights here; the surrounding abandoned skyscrapers are everywhere, making it hard for even sunlight to reach here, let alone now that it's raining.

"It's really uncomfortable; this is simply worse than a sewer—I never expected the edge of Fengdu to be this hard to walk."

Jiang Xia waved his hand, rinsing away all the filthy, foul-smelling water here, revealing the city's sewer outlet that had long been clogged.

No matter how severe the blockage of this sewer outlet is, it could never be a match for Jiang Xia.

He only needs to use a little of his power to accomplish what he needs.

"Bang, bang, bang…"

A clashing sound came; the sharp blade slashed back and forth on skin as tough as steel, sparks flying, and even the monster was suppressed by the Knight with no power to fight back.

【ACCELMAXIMUMDRIVE！】

Boiling steam instantly washed away the rain; a consciousness-lost hybrid could hardly block Kamen Rider Accel's ultimate move now, and the explosion instantly devoured it.

The scorching flames directly dispersed half of this white mist, even evaporating the falling rain from the sky; the power of the weather can no longer contend with the upgraded Accel.

Such a sight is quite common in Fengdu now.

The burning heat wave flickered in Jiang Xia's eyes, the temperature making his raincoat clean as new.

"Not bad dry-wise; we're still 10 Memories short of a full set."

Jiang Xia just watched Zhao Jinglong leave; his test of him is now completely finished.

Being able to exist as a guardian Knight of Fengdu, even facing former old rivals, is easily resolved.

Watching the constantly occurring conflicts in Fengdu, Jiang Xia came to the Yuansai household; he has now taken off his raincoat, and as a guest, he is enjoying the maid's service.

All members of the Yuansai household have arrived, three people and one cat.

"Are we just going to watch these terrorists wreak havoc in Fengdu?" Yuansai Saeko said coldly, still holding a Forbidden Memory in her hand.

Yuansai Ruibei did not answer his question; he merely stroked the Miku in his arms.

That hand is extraordinarily aged, skin covered in wrinkles, yet his master inexplicably gives a feeling of fear.

"Saeko, don't shout, be rude to the guest." Yuansai Ruibei said to Saeko with a blank expression.

When he turned his head back, the expression on his face had already become much milder,

"This time the emissary's descent upon our Yuansai household is not just for tea, is it?"

Speaking thus, he habitually reveals a smile, but his eyes still show extreme cold; combined with that smile, it gives a chilling feeling.

But Jiang Xia was completely unaffected, and he said:

"This time I'm only here to inform you of a piece of news: in our Conglomerate X, a suitable candidate for a Gene Memory has appeared, and I believe he will absolutely play an important role in our cooperation."

"Hahaha, it seems I really can't refuse."

"Hmm, I've even already brought him here."

The shadow beneath Jiang Xia's seat suddenly expanded, instantly turning the original wooden floor into a pitch-black expanse.

Then, a man in white clothing slowly rose from the shadow, still gripping a Memory in his hand.

"Gene"

He skillfully inserted the Memory into the interface on his arm; his body twisted briefly, turning into a small-limbed hybrid with a white head.

The Gene hybrid stood on the dining table, picked up a silver cup, and under its ability, the silver cup instantly turned into ceramic.

After receiving power, the members of Conglomerate X have a not-low adaptability to various Memories.

Although there is no super-suitable candidate for a Gene Memory, merely becoming a hybrid is still achievable.

"Saeko, first take Miku for a walk." Yuansai Ruibei said.

After confirming that this is a genuine Gene hybrid, Yuansai Ruibei without hesitation sent Yuansai Saeko away.

"Didn't you hear my words?"

Looking at the motionless Saeko, Yuansai Ruibei let out a cold snort.

Yuansai Saeko blinked slightly, and that feeling of jealousy surged up again.

Always like this, Father always favors Wakana, freedom, responsibility, even marriage.

Wakana can do whatever she wants without restraint, but she cannot.

And Jingshan Shenhonglang, in whom she placed great hopes, has already died at the hands of Kamen Rider.

Now she has nothing in her hand that could resist Yuansai Ruibei as a bargaining chip.

"Yes, Father." Yuansai Saeko gritted her teeth, said it reluctantly, and before leaving she gave Wakana a vicious look.

If it were before connecting to the Earth Library, Jiang Xia would still be interested in the Yuansai family's affairs, but now it seems merely superfluous.

Without Jingshan Shenhonglang and Jia Toushun, Yuansai Saeko couldn't stir up even a ripple.

Once Philip awakens, Yuansai Saeko's rights in the Yuansai household will be stripped away, even reducing her to a discard.

"Let's begin."

The Earth Memory was taken out of the box, and the Gene hybrid gently pressed the crystal emitting green light onto the surface of the clay doll's body.

The crystal instantly melted under the power of the Gene Memory, tearing open the shell of the clay doll hybrid.

That pitch-black crack thus swallowed the Earth Memory, the green light blinding.

Using it as a medium, all the memory data accumulated over the years in the museum was poured into the mud doll's body.

At this moment, after merging, Ruona, who possessed Earth's memory, instantly became a hybrid possessing limitless power.

She woke up, and powerful power instantly burst from inside the mud doll's body, her eyes turning deep purple!

Her body kept expanding, Earth's power boiling inside her; even the current Yuansai Liubingwei could hardly defeat the current Ruona.

And Jiang Xia's harvest finally arrived; cracks on the mud doll's shell kept igniting, the interconnected pattern instantly rippled, and his Earth permit began to surge.

However, compared to the feeling of instantly knowing everything the first time, Jiang Xia's expression this time was so bland.

This time it was merely lifting the permit restriction; there was nothing to celebrate.

The only thing worth being happy about is that his chance to flee in battle increased once more; he really couldn't feel happy at all.

"Father, I feel the power, power beyond comparison."

Her originally light voice became as heavy as rock, and her body began to keep expanding.

At this moment, the mud doll in its limit state had preliminarily merged into Yuansai Ruona's body.
