158-160
The giant ladder slammed into the giant crystal tree in front of him, and the will from the two worlds was opposed, and this moment was raised to the extreme.
The shattered crystalline tree symbolized that the tree-shaped totem had suffered another heavy blow, and the cloak behind the golden white stone was raised, and when it was about to attack, a blood-colored long sword broke through the air and blocked in front of it.
"Eventually, it's time to wrap up."
"That's right."
The eyes released a dark green light, and the golden armor of the golden white stone all over the body changed, and like the previous Kaga Misin, the armor began to combine with itself, and the golden white stone blessed by the power of the double king's eggs spewed out two different particles, black and white!
Destroy all black particles, create all white particles.
Two completely different powers, as if a combination of light and darkness, the strongest lifeform of the protozoan royal clan, officially descended into this world.
"According to the protozoan level, I am the king, and you are the minister."
"Joke!"
The golden giant sword, the blood-colored long sword, launched the first confrontation in the sky, the power of the demon emperor against the bloodline of the royal clan of the original worm, the two sides at this moment, each showed their magical powers, and the three color particles were intertwined on this land.
The impact of the particles that tore everything apart made the sky feel as if it was in the center of a huge rainbow vortex, and countless projectile weapons continued to emerge At the same time, thousands of special starlight electromagnetic bombs were condensed in the sky above the golden white stone.
The shattered giant crystal tree, the golden giant sword in the hand of the golden white stone devoured all the crystalline energy around it, and suddenly the golden armor skin in front of him was raised again, and under the dazzling light, the giant sword swept, and in an instant, countless golden electromagnetic lights were like stars in the sky, constantly surging towards the white stone.
Hundreds of projectile weapons intertwined with the endless electromagnetic starlight of gold and white stones, and the most gorgeous and spectacular decisive battle overture was cut in the night sky of the entire world of speed love.
"Isn't the ultimate life form something that you and I have been pursuing all along? After 35 years of rotten life, have you lost the motivation to achieve this goal? ”
A sword fell, and Baishi's right shoulder and arm were removed, but he saw that the broken arm was quickly caught by the healing Zecter in the air, and then quickly stitched out hundreds of stitches, and at the same time as the shoulder of Baishi was urgently connected, Baishi shot out a scorching Demon Emperor fire, forcing the golden Baishi back a few steps.
The support Zecter from the future, with more powerful bio-healing technology, repaired Shiraishi's severed arm injury in just three seconds.
"I do pursue a more ultimate evolutionary path, but you and I have already disagreed on the choice of path, so let's let this battle witness who is the most correct person."
"After all, that stupid woman, who changed all this, should I be glad that you have human feelings, or should I be sad that you and I are fighting a meaningless battle?"
"Let's let our swords do the talking."
Hundreds of mirror-like zecters are constantly intertwined, and under the control of Shiraishi, they shoot out endless electromagnetic light waves.
"With such an electromagnetic light wave, the power is far from enough!"
Golden Baishi roared angrily, and a huge electromagnetic energy ball was condensed in his hand, and the moment it exploded, it actually absorbed all the electromagnetic light cannons shot by Baishi and turned them into his own strength.
Countless projectile weapons continued to fall, and with the sound of violent explosions, both sides took a step back.
Even though the crystallization of the giant crystal tree was slowed down by the impact of the ladder, the golden white stone with the infinite aggregation device, relying on the golden giant sword in its hand, could absorb these crystallized energy at will and replenish itself.
The infinite aggregation device is the requiem system combined with the current HCU armor comprehensive process, which has a more powerful electromagnetic output power than ordinary aggregation devices.
"Don't think I don't know your plans, and you want to use the stone tower to finally split the two worlds."
The golden white stone giant sword swept, and the powerful electromagnetic light wave made Baishi have to control hundreds of mirror defense Zecters to block.
"But it's a pity that I relied on the power of the sun to successfully block the connection between the armor fighting world and the outside space, unless the battle between you and me, as well as the battle between the two worlds, has a result, otherwise, the so-called separation in your mouth will not be effective!"
Shiraishi's personality changed, and Jin Shiraishi began to estimate that there was indeed a deviation, but with the analysis of the past few days, he finally judged Shiraishi's possible course of action, so he did make a move and put Shiraishi to finally flip the table.
The forces of the two sides were intertwined in the entire plane space, and the golden white stone slashed a sword after a sword, swinging a violent force.
Even the Demon Emperor's Fire couldn't get close to its body.
The peak power of the protozoan royal bloodline made the golden white stone completely deformed, and I saw countless blood vessels emerge from its palm, inserted into the golden giant sword in front of him, obviously fusing itself with the power of the giant sword.
"The body of the tree-shaped female insect in this world is the best raw material for this sword."
Accompanied by the words of the golden white stone, I saw it turn into a storm, a sword aimed at the wound on the right side of the white stone, the moment the violent energy blasted out, the mirror shield appeared again, and the blood red particles covered the moment, and the white stone blocked this blow at the same time, holding another halberd and projecting it.
The golden white stone shot out an electromagnetic light wave, blocking the halberd, but saw that its surface emitted a bloody red light, and suddenly approached the yellow turban white stone closely, cutting off the golden white stone skull in the blink of an eye.
The flying head appeared in mid-air, and in the flow of a flashback, its head returned to its own body.
Local HCU countercurrent force, another capability under the infinite polymerization device.
"This clever data transfer function can allow you to project weapons to a higher level in a period of time to achieve the effect of breaking the fortification, the idea is good, but unfortunately it is useless to me!"
It was useless, the moment the golden and white stone giant sword was clenched, the black and white particles surrounded the whole body, showing a special energy storm.
The same blow as the last time he caught the sun, but it was even more powerful than at that time, thinking of this, Baishi's eyes released blood-red light, and the power of the Demon Emperor was fully opened, and the blood-colored long sword condensed another blood-red electromagnetic storm.
With a bang, the forces of the two sides continued to stagger, forming a terrifying death storm on the entire battlefield.
It seemed to spread rapidly like Bermuda, and in the blink of an eye, the entire city of Tokyo and the whole country entered a state of magnetic field chaos, and many humans who had not had time to transform into protozoa seemed to be trapped in a microwave oven, turning into countless flesh and blood and shattering.
The brutal battle reverberates on the giant crystal tree, and the final battle between the gold and white stone and the white stone, who is the real winner?
In the dream of the town, Aikawa Shu, who is holding the cobra scepter, is unable to open the lightless barrier due to his own injuries, and Sawamaki can only fight in a Yummy posture because of the loss of the power of the white tiger.
"Hahaha, Ah Shu, what qualifications do you have to stop me, and what qualifications do you have to teach me!"
A punch slammed into Aikawa Shi, and the strong force made him hold the cobra scepter and constantly retreat.
Step by step, step by step, step by step, Aikawa Shu spurted out a mouthful of blood and looked at Zemu in front of him at the same time: "This is the only thought now?" ”
In response to Aikawa Shu's questioning, Zemu paused for three seconds before laughing wildly: "Yes, I want to kill people, kill more people, because this is the qualification that only the strong deserve." ”
"It's sad to kill people to prove their existence!"
With a sad sound, the angry Aikawa Tree ignored the injury, and fully opened his strongest blow, and in an instant, the death power in the cobra scepter in his hand exploded wildly.
Countless strange poisonous snakes, carrying the power of death that deprives life, seem to be endless, running through Zemu's whole body. The special simulated coin in its body also temporarily lost its effect due to this blow.
The furious offensive instantly destroyed Yummy in Zemu's body, splashing countless coins and a core coin, only to see Wuba quickly make a move and take away his own core coin.
Sawamu stopped moving, and the moment he slowly fell, Aikawa quickly stepped forward to hug him.
A large number of ordinary coins were spilled, and they were absorbed by Kashari, Mei Zuer, and Anku.
One of the special ordinary coins also fell into Mei Zuer's body at this juncture.
"Instructor, you looked so imposing when you killed me in anger just now."
Zemu smiled and looked at Aikawa Tree with a complicated expression in front of him: "I'm a murderer, don't blame myself"
As soon as the words fell, Zemu gradually lost his breath of life, as if nothing had happened, and with Zemu's death, the mysterious power of nothingness that originally tormented Xiangchuan Tree's body suddenly dissipated.
Aikawa Shu clung to Zemu's body and was silent for a long time. Serafim, who appeared on one side, wanted to step forward to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say.
However, no one noticed that a special aura of energy was quietly lurking in Aikawa Tree's Erebos memory body.
Chapter 159: Goodbye, Armor World!
HCU internalization, infinite aggregation device, protozoan royal bloodline, the combination of the three golden white stone, has the ultimate power over this world, even if it is white stone, I have to admit that in terms of individual evolution alone, gold white stone has been at the peak.
A large number of projectile Zecters are constantly projecting at the golden and white stones, which also create an almost infinite starlight electromagnetic network, and the sparks that rage in the sky symbolize that the war has entered a white-hot stage.
Black and white particles are constantly ejected from the golden armor, and the surrounding humans who are infected and turned into protozoa, once they are touched by the black particles, they will completely dissipate and become part of the starlight electromagnetic network, and when touched by the white particles, countless crystals will grow all over the body and become a crystalline stone statue.
Jin Baishi held the golden giant sword, striding forward at the same time, the giant sword in his hand condensed an endless electromagnetic storm, and the violent energy raged, Bai Shi picked up a mirror shield to block it At the same time, the blood-colored long sword released the fire of the high-temperature demon emperor.
At the moment of quick dodge, the right arm of the Golden White Stone was attacked by the Demon Emperor Fire, and under the burning of the powerful flames, the Golden White Stone Intensified HCU showed signs of slowing down for the first time.
The power of the Demon Emperor is really a troublesome existence.
"But your defense is inversely proportional to the output of your special Demon Emperor's power!"
At this moment, the Infinite Aggregation Device was fully activated, and the entire electromagnetic starlight network erupted with a violent energy impact, releasing tens of thousands of energy bombs in one go, smashing towards Baishi like a storm.
Hundreds of mirror-defended Zecters were destroyed in a row, and a large number of projectile weapons were too late to be used, and Shiraishi held a mirror-like shield to defend against this storm-like offensive.
The shattered shield, I saw the golden giant sword in his hand suddenly cut down, and the power of dazzling light removed Baishi's right arm at this moment, and countless starlight electromagnetic rays shot out, completely shattering Baishi's right arm.
Several support Zecters were about to make a robot arm connection, but when they saw a new round of electromagnetic starlight nets blasted out of Golden White Stone, a large number of support Zecters were shattered and prevented from repairing White Stone, but they saw that the blood-colored long sword was aimed at Golden White Stone's chest at some point.
A sword stabbed out, the golden white stone suffered a heavy blow, and the golden giant sword in his hand was angrily cut down, and suddenly Bai Shi's other hand was removed, but he saw the blood red particle energy transferred, and at the same time, due to this time difference, a robotic arm was quickly connected to Bai Shi's hand.
"Drink!"
With a burst of applause, a violent electromagnetic light wave blasted towards the right arm of the Baishi machine, but under the transfer of blood-red particles, the white stone arm in front of him gradually evolved into red.
A punch blasted out, instantly crushing the electromagnetic light wave in front of him, but at the same time, he saw that a large number of blood-red particles erupted from Baishi's body, turning into a meteor and attacking the golden Baishi in front of him.
Suddenly smashed a fist into the chest of the golden white stone, and the power of the powerful demon emperor poured into his body, causing his blood to spurt out, and the golden white stone condensed two electromagnetic light blades in his palm, and quickly cut off the right leg of the white stone, but saw that he quickly pulled out the blood-colored long sword, and in the splash of dark green blood, the white stone released the fire of the demon emperor.
The intrinsized HCU was turned on, and the golden white stone quickly repaired his body and avoided the moment, and the white stone also connected to the right leg of the machine.
Fortunately, he has the power of the Demon Emperor, otherwise in today's battle, I am afraid that even if I rely on these support type Zecter, I will not be able to destroy the golden white stone with inherent HCU.
Thinking of this, Shiraishi raised his fingers, and countless blood-red particles condensed in the center of his fist, and the Demon Emperor Fire that burned out at the same time showed his strong fighting qualities.
The endless electromagnetic starlight network continued to blast out violent electromagnetic beams, and a large number of Zecters were destroyed in the distance, even though there were continuous space-time support weapons, but they gradually couldn't keep up with the speed of the destruction of the golden white stone.
With the blessing of all the crystallized power of this world, he has almost unlimited energy.
The impact of the tragic sparks in the sky, and the hand-to-hand combat between the white stone and the golden white stone on the ground also entered the most critical moment.
The blood-colored longsword and the golden giant sword, constantly colliding, accompanied by a roar of gold and white stone, the golden giant sword blessed by black and white particles, forcibly smashing the blood-colored longsword at this moment.
The broken sword body, countless blood-red particles returned to the white stone armor, and the flaming flame fist in his hand attacked, but he saw a special energy magnetic field appear in front of the golden white stone.
At the same time as the gravity force shattered the magnetic field, the golden white stone turned around and kicked right in the abdomen of the white stone, only to see the burning demon emperor fire in his hand shoot out and blast towards his heart.
The entire heart was penetrated, but the incarnated HCU energy was surrounded, and the heart was constantly repaired to perform time magic, and at the same time, the golden white stone hit the elbow and quickly attacked the white stone.
What is the meaning of fighting?
Protect what you need to protect.
At this moment of fighting, Baishi, whose entire mental consciousness had calmed down, continued to fight with the golden Baishi, and countless electromagnetic forces blessed him, making the two fight faster and faster.
At the moment of the sparks, Shiraishi hit his knee and hit the golden Baishi in the abdomen at the same time, and his head slammed down.
"You and I originally understood each other's thoughts, but because of a woman, we caused today's situation, and even did not hesitate to destroy the original layout of the Fengdu Stone Tower, what qualifications do you have to become the winner of this battle?"
"I never understood how a bastard the guy named Shiraishi used to be, and I understood everything you did to the world now, but this time, I must not allow myself to continue like this!"
Bai Shi, who had suffered a heavy blow to his head, turned his hand and quickly punched at the golden white stone's head, and the fire of the powerful demon emperor burned his face, and at the same time, the latter's eyes released the most terrifying and ferocious light, only to see his golden giant sword burst out with all his strength, slashing at Bai Shi's head.
"No matter how powerful you are, but after all, in terms of individual strength, you are too weak and too weak, and I am the ultimate lifeform in the true sense! Die, another me! ”
In the midst of the shouting, Baishi's head was viciously cut off, and the flying head and the blood that spurted out, but seeing that Baishi's body, which had already transferred all the blood-red particles to the armor, suddenly grabbed the golden white stone.
The last second the head was cut off, and Shiraishi ordered the final self-destruction procedure through battlefield information management.
The flames of the burning Demon Emperor's power continued to erupt from the body of Shiraishi's broken head, forming a fierce and terrifying high temperature, causing the two to burn together.
Even if it is the power of the inherentized HCU, in the face of the complete release of the power of the Demon Emperor, it finally collapsed and collapsed quickly.
"This is the path you have chosen, and you will die with me, which is really willful and stubborn."
At the last moment, Jin Baishi was quite helpless, and originally planned to kill Baishi to absorb his soul and make the two Baishi become one.
But in this situation, I am afraid that I and Shiraishi will die together.
Is it really worth it for this guy, for the sake of that world, to do this?
As the Demon Emperor's fire erupted from the two white stone remains, it instantly burned within the entire giant crystal tree. The two white stone bodies were completely destroyed, and in the process of refining the Demon Emperor's Fire, a special spirit stone was condensed and scattered in the sky.
At this moment, Hisakabe was taken away by the final intelligent program robot ordered by Shiraishi on his deathbed and returned to the original world.
The burning Demon Emperor's fire was even hotter due to the crystallized world that was spreading in front of him.
The world in which Shiraishi lived survived in the end.
On the World Island, the General Division of Heavenly Dao and the Mimic Heavenly Dao looked at the sunshine who had returned safely, leaving tears of joy.
Crystal clear snowflakes fell in the sky.
The General Division of Tiandao remembers very well that on the day my grandmother left, Xuehua was also such a special seven water chestnuts.
"Grandparents"
The world was redeemed, and the Heavenly Dao General Division finally did not choose to annex the original Godspeed Love World, but used the special HCU signal transmitter developed to forcibly separate the two worlds.
"My will is above the will of the world."
Regarding the original world's will to annex the god speed love world, the head secretary of the Heavenly Dao said disdainfully.
The powerful and domineering world's No. 1 president, Tiandao General Division, pointed his finger to the sky at the same time, and said something that made countless girls' eyes burst with love, but they entered a state of nymphocy.
Goodbye, Armor World!

Chapter 160: Meeting with Gray Grid (Final Chapter of the Volume)
The magnificent crystal palace seems to be in the dream world of the West, and the elegant piano sound slowly sounds, echoing in the ears of Baishi.
The first thing Shiraishi saw when he got up and opened his eyes was that he was lying in a very special room.
But soon, it was followed by an involuntary tingling pain all over the body
In the end, the shattered memories of his broken head and the scene of his final death with the gold and white stone slowly surfaced in his mind, like a puzzle, slowly put together.
"This is my original body."
Shiraishi shook his head and tried to stand up, but unexpectedly found that his body was very tingling. Obviously, his data soul has been combined with the adjusted body, but Shiraishi still feels the trauma of his own spirit when the two bodies in the armor fighting world were damaged.
The consciousness of the golden white stone has also merged back into itself, or the consciousness of the two has begun to integrate with each other.
"You should be very glad that if it weren't for the spirit stone to increase the power of the Demon Emperor and let the two of your souls merge with each other, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to let your soul return to its original body."
A young man dressed in black sat opposite the white stone, with a delicate face and extraordinary temperament, which was enough to show that the identity of the person in front of him was very special.
"You're Selena's Gray, aren't you?"
"The wise man is different, so quickly judge my identity, so formally introduce yourself, in the lower gray grid, the current director of the Time Management Bureau."
Time Authority?
A cup of black tea, brewed in a gray grid, slowly poured into the cup, he broke his love and enjoyed life, and slowly narrated the identity and background of the Time Authority.
Ten thousand years ago, a war for supremacy in countless parallel worlds almost shattered many worlds involved at that time, and finally the battlefield became a forbidden place.
In order to prevent the evil from returning, several remnant Kamen Riders have completely sealed the main core ruins.
Seal?
When Bai Shi heard that the main core ruins had already been sealed, his brows couldn't help but stir.
At that time, the Kamen Riders were given supreme rule, but they gave up this privilege and instead restored the order of each universe to its former state.
However, in order to avoid the same event, and many organizations such as Xiuka at that time tried to modify the timeline, causing time chaos and trying to revive it, which finally made the Time Authority appear on the scene.
It can be said that many of Kamen Rider's holster battle theatrical versions in the original book are one of the reasons for the establishment of the Time Authority.
The four Kamen Rider veterans who founded the Time Authority did not take on the role of manager themselves at that time, but invited the former time station master, Ishimaru, to serve as the first director of the bureau.
Then there are the twin brothers of the stationmaster of Ishimaru, the train captain of Ishimaru, and the gray grid who has just taken office, although there are only three terms in the Time Management Bureau, countless years have long passed.
With the original Denwang train station as the core, special tracks have been established in countless universes for connection management, and at present, the entire World Administration has managed various parallel worlds in time and space, which has reached a very staggering number.
"We don't interfere with the wars in the world, whether it's destruction or regeneration, we're just a recorder."
Speaking of this, Gray Ge showed a smile: "In a sense, it is just to enlarge the original tram train authority and prevent the resurgence of all kinds of card repairs." ”
"Shuka, they still exist."
"Yes, the current person in charge of Xiuka is not a good guy to get along with, at least he has gradually restored Xiuka a little bit over the years."
Gray Grid and him, like red and black in mythology, are destined to be rivals, and they are also sympathetic.
"But whether it's him or me, he doesn't want that guy in the main core ruin to escape, but because of your relationship, the seal of the main core ruin has collapsed."
Gray Grid showed a helpless expression: "The stone tower system you created has broken through the way that the Time Authority has connected various times for countless years, and it is good to be immortal and connect with the main core ruins. ”
"Create chaos in the world of armor and let him escape, but why do you want to do something against me and split into two people?"
Speaking of this, Baishi condensed a special energy spirit stone with one hand, and when the final battle of the armor fighting world was due, he and the golden white stone were killed together, but the two bodies were refined into the stone in front of him by the fire of the Demon Emperor, maybe this was his goal.
"This stone is one of the three major spirit stones of the heaven, earth and sea, and it is a special spirit stone used by the royal family of the bloodtooth ghost clan to increase the power of the demon emperor, and it is also one of the three spirit stones owned by the creation king in other time and space."
"But why did my body turn into a Sea Spirit Stone?"
The two Demon Emperor forms in the KIVA world are inlaid with spirit stone fragments divided into three parts on their surfaces, which can continuously increase the power of the Demon Emperor while not being affected by the power in their own spirit stones.
"In the final battle of the main nuclear relics in the past, one of the four founders of the Time Management Bureau, and one of the few people who had the three spirit stones in common, in the final battle with that person, the three spirit stones were destroyed and turned into pieces."
The spirit stone that has become fragments is not completely invalid, once there is a chance, it can be restored to its original state, and when the white stone spirit data comes to the main core ruins, it will be cut by the person who owns the sea spirit stone, and part of the sea spirit stone fragments are introduced into its soul.
"He tried to rely on the fragments of the spirit stone to let the two of you fight at the same time, absorb enough evil thoughts and desires in the world, and finally restore its full state strength, but he didn't expect that you used the power of the Demon Emperor to inadvertently refine it into a complete sea spirit stone, and by the way, he lifted his mark, which is equivalent to you snatching the sea spirit stone."
"The raw materials you gave me the power of the Demon Emperor, the real purpose is here, right?"
"I can only say that this is one of them, and on the other hand, I also need your help to help me manage the increasingly tedious time management of the bureau."
Gray Ge shrugged his shoulders and looked at the sky in the distance: "Dealing with official business can be done in your own world, after all, the current situation must also make you return quickly." ”
"What's going on?"
"That person, before leaving the main core ruins, in your world, the Heaven Stone, the Earth Stone fragments, to create six mysterious simulation coins, trying to rely on the spirit stone to amplify the power of desire, so that he can obtain enough power to recover."
Six simulated coins, which are indistinguishable from normal coins, have a simulated core coin, and mix them into core coins and normal coins, creating a huge chaos.
"These six coins are not only weird in ability, but also contain huge amplification power, which can make the user's desire expand infinitely, and eventually become a container for rampaging desire."
Speaking of this, Gray Ge took a sip of black tea and drank it: "This mess, you have to help me dispose of it." ”
"I see."
"Hey, I thought that according to your character, you would ask me for a little favor before I would do anything."
According to Gray Ge's investigation in the Wind Capital, Shiraishi is not so easy to speak, although the Jiadou World has an impact on his personality, but after the two Baishi souls are fused, it stands to reason that he will not be exactly the same as the Jiadou World period.
"Since I'm the one who caused the chaos, I'll handle it."
was not affected by the consciousness of the golden white stone, and the white stone in front of him was still the white stone from the period of the armor fighting world, and the gray grid was stunned for a moment, and then understood all these reasons.
"That golden white stone is also proud, since he failed, he simply didn't even affect your consciousness, which is equivalent to completely erasing part of his consciousness before merging into your soul."
Speaking of this, Graygrid opened the curtains: "However, given the danger of this trip, I still have to give you enough support, and you can take this little guy with you." ”
With the words of the gray checker, a small and delicate bat-like creature slowly entered Shiraishi's bedroom.
This is
