Starting With Firefly, Speedrunning the World

The continuous explosions echoed without end.

This caused the already battered ground and buildings to completely turn into ruins.

Chapter 40: Guaguala's Anticipation

Under Kamen Rider Glare's relentless assault, this area was already on the verge of collapse, and it would be wiped off the map completely before long.

There were no longer any buildings around; they had all become ruins. Even the ground was covered in spreading cracks, forming a terrifying, monstrous spiderweb!

The full-power attacks from the floating cannons were like a raging storm, giving absolutely no chance for anyone to catch their breath.

Sam wasn't afraid of his attacks, but with her current power, it was difficult to completely defeat Guelorey. Using other powers would undoubtedly endanger too many people.

However, even if she held back, Guelorey's current onslaught would still kill the survivors within this Jyamato domain.

That's right!

In the eyes of these Future People, everyone in this world was insignificant and not worth much attention.

If they died, they died; as long as it didn't affect them, it was fine.

But Firefly couldn't do that!

Dodging the repeated attacks from the floating cannons, Firefly thought for a few seconds and decisively chose to leave this place, flying towards the sea.

Of course, her speed wasn't fast, and she deliberately exposed her location.

It would be best if Guelorey chased after her. If he didn't, she would think of another plan, or turn back and stop caring so much.

As far as she knew, Kamen Rider Glare's Dimensional Observer could perform dimensional observation within a radius of up to 30 kilometers, obtaining detailed information about the surrounding environment and targets, and sending it to the visual device "Glare Vision."

Coupled with its teleportation ability, as long as she wasn't too fast and deliberately concealed herself, he would definitely not lose track of her.

And so, under Kamen Rider Glare's attacks, the Stellaron Hunter Sam openly flew towards the sea.

"Trying to run?"

Noticing Sam's actions, Guelorey's expression changed, and he immediately ordered the control device to stop attacking.

He hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to pursue.

Within a few seconds, he made his decision: pursue!

If he didn't take him down this time and let him escape, he would probably show up again to cause trouble in the next DGP Grand Prix.

If this continued, could the DGP still proceed?

With this thought, Guelorey quickly locked onto Sam's information and pursued.

"Hahahaha, interesting, truly interesting! Who exactly is this Stellaron Hunter Sam?"

"A wanted criminal from the future? Or some kind of dimensional stowaway?"

"This is much more interesting than the original DGP Grand Prix!"

At this moment, inside the Future People's VIP spectator room, Guaguala, who looked like a frog statue, couldn't help but burst into laughter as he watched the unfolding events.

He was very interested in the DGP Grand Prix, and he particularly favored the guy named Keiwa Sakurai.

It was also why it had repeatedly rewarded him with top-tier buckles.

Otherwise, how could anyone start with a Booster Buckle or a Magnum Buckle right from the beginning?

Ordinary viewers, even VIP supporters, wouldn't dare to be as extravagant as it was, shamelessly gifting top-tier buckles.

It had long grown tired of Geats' consecutive victories, and the current changes in the DGP Grand Prix were exactly to its liking.

The unexpected developments in the DGP didn't anger it; instead, it made it even more delighted. Most, no, almost all Future People watched the DGP Grand Prix simply to find entertainment.

It was just that everyone sought different kinds of entertainment.

Some craved "misfortune," some anticipated "emotion," and some enjoyed "reality."

This ancient Earth civilization was merely a playground for them to find the entertainment they desired.

The DGP Grand Prix, which had been proceeding normally, became even more interesting and a much bigger source of amusement after the appearance of the Stellaron Hunter Sam.

It didn't know what the other Future People thought, but Guaguala was incredibly delighted at this moment.

There was just one small point of dissatisfaction: the Keiwa Sakurai it favored... was still naively protecting others at this time, not yet involved.

But then again, wasn't this very point the reason it favored Keiwa Sakurai?

Turning this naive and foolish good-hearted person into the ideal hero standing at the pinnacle would surely be incredibly amusing!

"Now that the Game Master has also entered the fray, let me see how things will develop next."

"Stellaron Hunter Sam, will you stop here?"

"Before Keiwa Sakurai grows up, I hope you can bring me more entertainment!"

Watching Kamen Rider Glare chasing after the Stellaron Hunter, Guaguala, not wanting to stir up trouble at all, eagerly anticipated what would happen next.

If the Stellaron Hunter wasn't a participant in the DGP Grand Prix, it would have already couldn't resist showering Sam with several top-tier buckles.

With its financial resources, it could freely gift the Booster Buckle that others were reluctant to part with, if not for the Grand Prix's restrictions.

Watching these changes now, it almost made me want to jump in myself.

Although the rules didn't allow it, if something unexpected happened, it wasn't entirely impossible.

At this moment, it wasn't just Guaguala; other viewers were also curious about the outcome of this unexpected turn of events. Except for a few, most felt this was much more interesting than a regular DGP.

Especially those viewers who had also set their sights on the Game Master's Desire Driver.

At this time, on a deserted island.

Sam landed directly by the sea, waiting for Guelorey to catch up.

She didn't have to wait long. The next second, Guelorey appeared not far from her, clearly having teleported directly there.

With the power of the Creation Goddess, it was extremely convenient in many situations, especially since he was directly linked to the Creation Goddess through the Desire Driver.

"Guelorey, you actually dared to follow me."

Sam turned to face Kamen Rider Glare, speaking aloud.

This made things much simpler, and she no longer needed to hold back.

"Hmph! You disrupted the DGP and think you can just leave so easily?"

"Do you think that's possible?!"

Guelorey didn't pay much attention to Sam's words, instead issuing a threat. This destabilizing factor that affected the smooth progress of the DGP had to be dealt with today.

After speaking, Guelorey raised his left hand towards Sam, and the control devices on his body transformed into floating cannons, launching a furious assault on the enemy before him.

Each strike was at maximum output, causing a part of the island to completely disappear from the sea's surface.

However, Sam was now completely different from before. She could afford to hold back less, meaning she wasn't limited to using only her most basic combat abilities.

This was something Guelorey could never have imagined.

He thought the power of the Stellaron Hunters was limited to this, but in reality, Sam had only displayed her most basic strength out of concern for implicating too many innocent people.

She hadn't even activated her commonly used Secondary Burn yet.

Sam's existence was originally that of a unit for interstellar warfare.

Not some reality show Knight!

Chapter 41: Execute Scorched Earth Operation!

Staring at the control devices manipulated by Guelorey, Sam paid no mind to the attack that was capable of slowly sinking the island.

At this point, she no longer needed to deliberately hold back.

Kamen Rider Glare was not like other Desire Series Kamen Riders; his basic combat mode was difficult to overcome. Only by entering the formal state could he be dealt with.

"Protocol approved, executing Scorched Earth Operation!"

[DHGDR-Secondary Burn!]

The next moment, Sam's right hand, encased in armor, swung forward. Crimson flames spread across the Stellaron Hunter, and the entire massive island beneath her feet was covered in lava-like cracks, completely turning into scorched earth.

In an instant, it covered the entire island and an unknown radius of the surrounding sea.

The seawater was instantly evaporated on a massive scale, and the sea level dropped significantly.

A large amount of water vapor turned the area into a dense fog.

But this environment wouldn't affect Sam's combat, nor would it affect Kamen Rider Glare.

Kamen Rider Glare possessed a base defense surpassing diamond and the ability to fight unaffected by any extreme conditions.

Whether in space or underwater, it was like fighting on flat ground.

But this wasn't Sam's attack; it was merely the effect of entering Secondary Burn.

In just an instant, any plants or animals on the island, along with the creatures in the sea, turned into black charcoal.

At this moment, some parts of Sam's mecha turned crimson, with flames igniting on her limbs and chest, like a fire crystal butterfly fluttering its wings.

"What in the world is this..."

The sudden inferno greatly shocked Guelorey, who had no idea what was happening.

He could even feel the surrounding temperature; if he hadn't transformed into Kamen Rider Glare at that moment, he would have instantly turned into a piece of charcoal.

Such an exaggerated, large-scale area attack.

Even in his memory, nothing like it existed.

Was this truly the kind of person they were looking for, a fugitive from the future era?

He couldn't help but have some doubts!

However, there was one thing he was certain of: he had misjudged the strength of this Stellaron Hunter. If he didn't make some changes, he might truly be in trouble.

So, he raised his right hand, and three control devices in his hand transformed into data vortexes.

[Data, Delete!]

The data vortexes flashed towards Sam, appearing before her in the blink of an eye, leaving her no time to react.

But as the attack ended, Sam remained standing in place, hands held up in front of him.

Waiting for him to lower his arms, he found Sam unharmed…

"Now it's my turn!"

"Molten Fire, detonate!"

[Molten Core Engine activated!]

As Sam's Molten Core Engine whirred to life, the flames on his chest erupted forward the next moment.

Immediately after, Sam swung his right hand towards Guelorey, and extreme heat rushed forward, turning the ground into a lava-like substance.

Even though he was inside Kamen Rider Glare at this moment, Guelorey could still feel the flames burning within him, his consciousness even slowing down as a result.

It's important to note that Kamen Rider Glare's stats far surpassed those of a regular Kamen Rider; he could defeat other ordinary Kamen Riders with just one hand.

His defensive capabilities were also monstrously enhanced, yet even now, he couldn't avoid this.

Just then, Sam's figure, wreathed in flames, charged towards Guelorey and threw a ruthless punch!

The air itself began to warp due to the extreme heat.

Guelorey didn't dare to be careless and immediately recalled all his control devices to activate his defense mechanism.

[Circle Deflector!]

The circular "Deflect Pits" that were originally distributed across his entire body instantly appeared before Sam, deploying the electromagnetic deflection shield "Circle Deflector," granting Glare an almost indestructible defense.
