Chapter 12: Whoever Wears Decade Cares About Magenta vs

The attack fired from the Card Box Gun struck Balkan's body.

Xilina's body exploded backward.

She stumbled to a halt only after retreating more than ten meters.

"Arm damage at level two; Balkan's armor can only minimize damage as much as possible?"

The girl raised her head: "Truly impressive."

"This pink Kamen Rider called Decade, although our Truth Technology cannot trace its origins at all."

"But its performance is even more powerful than my Balkan."

"Besides that, your physical condition appears to need no further concern."

"Congratulations, the former strongest has returned!"

"In that case, the task the Chairman asked me to confirm is also complete."

She looked as if she intended to end the battle, lowering the Shooting Sublimator.

But just then.

Bang bang bang! Light bullets fired from the Card Box Gun landed at her feet, kicking up a cloud of dust and smoke.

"End?"

"I said I would make you distinguish magenta from pink; do you want to end it now?"

Such a trigger point for a rave, and just now she even said "pink"; thinking it could end so simply is wishful thinking!

Of course, most importantly.

You came to probe; if you want to fight, you fight; if you don't want to fight, you don't.

You think too well! What do you take me, Su Jing, for? A great benefactor?! Without a single word, he immediately switched to the Card Box Sword and charged again.

Swish! Cold light slashed out again; Xilina, facing Danger, was still somewhat dazed.

Fortunately, her reaction was fast; her left hand quickly took the Shooting Sublimator and fired continuously!

Light bullets poured out, forming a dense barrage that struck around Su Jing.

Continuous explosions raised a wave of scorching heat.

But amidst the dense rain of bullets and the pervasive smoke.

That Decade's body directly swung his long sword and charged out.

She hurriedly dodged, but could only evade the first sword strike.

The Card Box Sword immediately slashed out again.

Xilina had no choice but to raise the Shooting Sublimator to block.

Clang! That overwhelming force pressed onto her wrist; instantly her entire arm trembled, and the weapon in her hand nearly slipped away.

"I have never heard that you are the type to be so serious about pink and magenta."

"The database records that you are not even obsessive-compulsive."

Previously, indeed, he was not.

When he was still Zero-One, he most liked to say Decade was "flashy pink."

But now! What flashy pink? I truly don't know it! This is definitely, certainly, and one hundred percent magenta!

"If you truly like to call it magenta, I will respect your wish."

"The magenta Decade; is that acceptable?"

Xilina's voice carried a hint of helplessness.

"No sincerity at all! You should study the difference between magenta and pink properly first!" Su Jing sneered.

Then he decisively raised the Card Box Sword and slashed continuously.

With his habitual right arm injured and unusable, Xilina, who had only her left hand to fight, was even less Su Jing's match.

Already suppressed before, now she was being beaten unilaterally.

That Card Box Sword slashed out continuously in an instant.

Blinding sparks erupted from Balkan's body.

She stumbled backward repeatedly.

Then Su Jing switched his weapon back to the Card Box Gun.

"Final strike!"

【Attack-ride! Blast!】

(Attack Ride! Blast!) Decade's built-in Attack Ride card, enhancing the Card Box Gun's firepower!

At the instant he pulled the trigger and fired.

Multiple afterimages appeared at the muzzle; the Card Box Gun instantly released firepower far exceeding a single caliber, all striking Balkan's body.

Boom!!

"Ahh!!"

A cry of immense pain; the Kamen Rider Balkan's body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.

The transformation state could not be maintained; after a faint light flashed across her body surface, it dissolved.

Xilina, wearing a Secretary uniform, knelt half-kneeling on the ground in a somewhat disheveled state. Tap tap!

Su Jing walked forward and picked up the Zero-One Driver that had fallen to the ground after being knocked away.

He brushed off the dust, the corners of his mouth rising slightly: "Welcome back, old friend."

Although this Driver had nearly caused his death.

But ultimately it had accompanied him through the most dangerous years.

He would not use it to transform again, but he did not want it to fall into others' hands; especially being used by someone else, that would be too disgusting! Keeping it as a collection piece like this would suffice.

"Speak. What does Truth Technology plan to do? You're here to help me again because you think I'm ready to invest?" Su Jing raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Of course not. You are not a good investment target. Investing in your ventures makes it easy to lose the money."

As Xilina spoke these words, her expression was somewhat strange.

Truth Technology's immediate investment in the Knight Association was intended to support the Association in gaining benefits from this land.

However, the moment Su Jing obtained the Zero-One Driver and slaughtered through the Monsters, they immediately began delaying the promised matters again and again.

It made the directors of Truth Technology want to contact the Anti-Fraud Center!

Hearing this,

Su Jing's face remained unblushed and his heart untroubled.

There is no such thing as a free pie falling from the sky; how could Truth Technology's investment in the Knight Association come without demands?

Back then, other overseas organizations also supported domestic Knight factions.

They all shared the same demand: to utilize domestic resources to manufacture the Knight System.

Or to conduct experiments domestically to create a stronger Knight System.

Truth Technology, however, demanded that the Knight Association provide materials, venues, manpower, and so on to allow them to mass-produce artificial intelligence on a large scale.

But Su Jing had always been guarding against the Cyborg Crisis and had no intention of letting Truth Technology play with fire and ignite it for them as well.

If the entire country were filled with artificial intelligence, then one day, a Malice like Yake would bring about the end.

So naturally, he kept delaying again and again.

After all, he had promised, but since the Monsters were not yet fully resolved, the Knight Association had no free hands.

"Next time, we will definitely help you create artificial intelligence."

"Since it is not an investment in me, then what is your purpose?"

"Must there always be a purpose for certain things?" Xilina suddenly asked.

"However, if you truly require an answer, it is the Chairman's personal request, asking me to return this to you."

"As for the sudden probing, it was also a sudden order."

Su Jing frowned.

Just as he had said a moment ago, he did not believe in free pies falling from the sky.

Especially since he had already been tricked once by Truth Technology's Zero-One Driver.

"Heh~"

"Does the Chairman of Truth Technology have such a kind heart?"

Xilina, however, paid no attention to the sarcasm in his words and instead spoke sincerely and seriously:

"Of course. The Chairman cares very much about you."

This made Su Jing even more concerned.

The Chairman of Truth Technology was very mysterious; he had never seen him before.

Did the other party have some demand regarding him?

Why would they be so... Just as he was deep in thought,

Xilina suddenly spoke: "I know you are very confused right now, but I think you should focus your attention over there."

"Hmm?" Su Jing raised his head.

Following the direction Xilina pointed.

Inside the forest of the park.

Under the moonlight, pairs of green, vicious-looking eyes suddenly lit up.

Then, a massive number of Worms appeared!

"Hmph!"

"Dirty bugs are truly visible everywhere."

"Did they come specifically to find me?"

"I suppose they fear your return, after all, it is well known that you hate bugs the most," Xilina smiled.

Su Jing said nothing, merely wiping the Card Box Sword with his hand.

"Then their fear is justified!"

"This time... I will completely sweep them away!"
