【“Bang! Bang! Bang!! Bang! Bang!!!”
On the armed helicopter, watching the spider-like monster gradually approaching, Johnny Stone showed no fear. He immediately raised his gun and pulled the trigger, aiming at Gumu-mum's chest and emptying the magazine.
However, the damage these bullets, gleaming with a golden glow, could inflict was negligible.
Gumu-mum simply patted his chest, and the bullet wounds healed as if nothing had happened. Then, he slowly opened his jagged maw and said.
“Mere bows and arrows, how can they harm this body tempered by countless battles? So, give it up, warrior of the Limdo.”
As he spoke, Gumu-mum raised the fang-like claws on his wrist and lunged into the dimly lit helicopter.
“Johnny!”
Even though her brother was right beside her.
Susan couldn't help but let out a worried cry as she watched the scene unfolding on the screen. Her eyes instantly filled with tears.
“It’s okay, Susan, I’m right here!”
Seeing this, Johnny quickly patted Susan on the back and tried to reassure her.
But his gaze towards the screen had unknowingly turned serious. He was clearly affected by the future scenes playing out.
...
【In the video, just as Johnny Stone was about to fall victim to the spider-like monster.
The helicopter suddenly lurched.
Then, Reed's arms, clad in white armor and black-reinforced muscles, emerged from behind, locking onto Gumu-mum's arms and neck, successfully blocking the approaching fang-like claws.
“You, Adaptoid, dare to interfere with me!!”
Gumu-mum didn't want to let go so easily of the Limdo who dared to offend him. He immediately began to struggle wildly.
Instantly, the already violently shaking helicopter began to wobble even more, causing Reed and the spider-like monster to lose their balance and fall out.
Then, on the landing gear outside the helicopter, they continued their fight to the death until Reed caught a fatal flaw in Gumu-mum's movements. Finally, he managed to kick the monster off.
“Waaaaaaaaaagh!”
With a terrifying shriek, Gumu-mum plummeted from a height of several tens of meters, crashing through the hard surface of the roof and disappearing in a cloud of dust.
Only the sounds of Reed and Johnny Stone's breaths echoed within the helicopter.
“You... you saved me?”
After a long moment, Johnny Stone, supporting himself on the smooth body of the helicopter, stood up. Then, he looked at the mysterious creature in front of him who resembled a stag beetle, his voice filled with hesitation as he spoke.
In response, Reed said nothing but simply nodded calmly. Then, he extended his right hand and gave a thumbs up.
It was twilight, the time when the sun was setting.
Under the glow of the sunset, even through his red compound eyes, Johnny Stone could feel the smile beneath the mask. This made him pause for a moment.
While he was still stunned, the prehistoric warrior Kuuga, transformed from Reed, jumped out of the helicopter and vanished into the twilight streets.
The final scene showed Johnny Stone sitting alone in the helicopter, silently watching the direction where the white figure had disappeared.
After a long while, it was as if he remembered something. He raised his right hand and slowly made a thumbs up gesture.
“No way, could it be that he...?”
As these words fell, the image on the screen gradually faded.
This signified the end of the first phase of the future video playing. The second phase was currently loading slowly.
During this waiting period, the audience in the real world began to discuss.
——“Ahhhhh! Why did it end like that? Screen, please load the second phase of the video immediately!! I want to see Reed’s awesome fighting!!!”
——“Hey, buddy, don’t be so impatient. According to the screen’s playback rules, it'll probably take half an hour to load.”
——“Ugh, half an hour? It’s so long! I want to see the following future scenes right now! Based on the screen’s last scene, it seems like Johnny Stone has discovered Reed’s true identity as Kuuga. I wonder how he will handle it.”
——“Actually, half an hour goes by pretty quickly. Also, did anyone notice that the spider monster, although terrifying, doesn’t seem to be the mysterious shadow figure from the ruins. To me, he seems much weaker.”
——“Much weaker? Come on, that spider monster is completely immune to bullets. He can jump over thirty meters high and land on top of a skyscraper. Compared to existing superheroes, only the Hulk can probably beat him.”
——“Hey, I didn’t mean weak in that way. I’m just saying, comparing the spider monster to the mysterious shadow figure, he seems much weaker.”
——“Now that you mention it, I have the same feeling. According to the information we have now, maybe... the mysterious shadow figure is the ultimate DOSS.”
——“Yes, I have the same feeling!!”
