The Tokusatsu Era: Starting with Orphnoch

Chapter 269 Sasworm

Within the city of Ruili, a scene of desolation unfolds.

The once bustling city is now a ruin.

The streets were deserted, with only ruins and shards of broken glass scattered on the ground.

The once bustling commercial street has now been taken over by Worm larvae, becoming their playground.

"See? I told you, that's how humans are. As long as we don't cross the line with their superiors, they'll turn a blind eye to what we do."

"Ruili City is just the beginning. We will gradually take over the entire Nanyun Province, and even the entire Ming Kingdom!"

"Let's have a blast!" the horseshoe crab Worm shouted excitedly from the high platform, causing the many Worms below to hiss in unison.

Not long after.

Behind the clamor of revelry, in a secluded room in Ruili City, the atmosphere is completely different from the outside world.

"You're not really stupid enough to actually settle down here, are you?!" Su Lin, disguised as a fiddler crab Worm, was sitting lazily on the sofa, manicuring her nails as she casually remarked.

"Hahaha!" Accompanied by a burst of arrogant laughter, Wang Xu, who was disguised as a horseshoe crab Worm, revealed a disdainful smile.

"How could I be so stupid? Those alien insects were just bait I deliberately left here to attract attention!"

"But my true goal, from beginning to end, has only been one thing—Scorpion Worm!"

As he spoke, he reached out and gently stroked the gruesome sword scar on his lower back, as if the wound was still throbbing with pain.

"I've never forgotten that sword strike!" Wang Xu's voice revealed a strong sense of hatred.

"Once I recover from my injuries, I will definitely take back everything I've lost!"

However, in response to Wang Xu's boastful words, Su Lin merely glanced at him coldly, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"Ha! I hope so." Her tone was cold and carried a hint of warning.

"You know, we saved you this time, so you'd better not let us down!"

After saying that, Su Lin didn't even glance at Wang Xu again. With a flash, she left the room as swiftly as a ghost.

Wang Xu was left standing there alone, staring at the empty room, his expression gradually turning sinister.

"Just you wait, you self-righteous bastards!" Wang Xu said through gritted teeth.

"Once I recover from my injuries, I will show you who the real strongman is!"

"When the time comes, I will make you clowns pay for what you've done!"

After saying that, Wang Xu transformed into a horseshoe crab Worm and disappeared into the empty room in an instant.

On the other side of Ruili City.

A fierce battle has just ended.

Several Worms exploded amidst screams, their remaining energy scattering like fireworks.

Amidst the chaos, Gatack slowly sheathed his twin swords back onto his shoulders.

His movements suggested fatigue, indicating he had just gone through a tough battle.

"It seems we can't stay here any longer. The horseshoe crab Worm has disappeared somewhere, and the number of Zerg is increasing. The battles ahead will only become more troublesome."

Gatack muttered to himself, his voice revealing a hint of helplessness and anxiety.

With a sigh, Gatack continued to ponder his next course of action.

"Sigh... Once that horseshoe crab Worm recovers, it will probably be even more difficult. I need to find a way to get help, but I don't know if the Special Affairs Bureau can handle it." He thought to himself as he started to leave the place.

.................................................. .....

However, just as he turned around, a deep voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, let's talk first."

Gatack's body jolted. He reacted swiftly, drawing Catack's twin blades without hesitation and aiming them at the source of the sound like lightning.

In an instant, his gaze met that of Kamen Rider Sasword, a figure with deep purple skin, compound eyes shaped like scorpion pincers, and sharp venomous stingers.

Sasword was seen leaning leisurely against the corner of the wall, seemingly unconcerned about Gatack's wariness.

"Who are you? What do you want to talk about?" Gatack's eyes were sharp as he stared intently at the person in front of him, gripping his twin swords tightly, seemingly ready to respond to any possible attack.

However, after a brief standoff, he seemed to realize that the other party did not have any obvious hostility, so he slowly withdrew his twin swords and asked in a slightly gentler tone.

"What should we talk about? Of course, we should talk about our shared goals!"

Sasword answered without hesitation, his voice revealing a firmness and decisiveness.

"I don't want that horseshoe crab Worm to continue living and recover. What do you think about that?"

Gatack stared at Sasword, carefully observing his expression and demeanor, trying to determine if he was sincere.

After careful consideration, Gatack realized that the other party was not joking, but genuinely wanted to cooperate with him.

Without hesitation, he activated the cricket-shaped insect combat device on his belt, and with a flash of light, Gatack's body returned to its original form.

After reverting to his original form, he walked straight toward Sasword, extending a hand with a smile.

"Lei Gang, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"

Sasworm was clearly taken aback by Ray Steel's actions. He paused for a moment, but quickly recovered.

He quickly removed the Scorpion Insect Battle Device from Sasworm's blade, and with a flash of light, Sasworm's body also deactivated its transformation form.

Sasworm smiled as he saw Raysteel's outstretched hand. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and shook hands firmly with Gatack.

"Li Shen, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
