Knight: A freak start, seizing the power of the king.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: What does the Insect-Catching Greedy One have to do with me, Qi Ling?

Faust, the Eastern Capital.

Qi Ling stood in the finance office, holding a thick stack of money bags in her hand.

As a member of Faust, one naturally receives a monthly salary.

Otherwise, a coffee shop like Mr. E's, which doesn't have a single customer, would have gone out of business long ago.

Moreover, as one of the three highest-ranking cadres, Qi Ling's salary was naturally much higher than that of the assassins.

In short, achieving financial freedom in a short period of time is definitely not a problem.

At this time.

Jingle Bell!

The phone rang, and the caller ID showed the name: Bloodlurk.

"Qi Ling, something terrible has happened, I need your help." As soon as the call connected, President E on the other end of the line urgently requested assistance.

"help?"

“That’s right, your kind, that gluttonous insect, hasn’t been killed by you yet.” E said, and then sent over a video.

That was a battle scene when Qi Ling disguised himself as Wu Fan. E had installed a hidden camera on the Blood Submersible Armor.

"I hope you can help me catch him."

He had a premonition that the greedy insects would probably cause trouble again next time.

To prevent this from happening, he decided to ask Qi Ling for help.

After all, it was Qi Lingdong who did it last time.

Qi Ling remained silent, unsure of what to say for a moment.

"I do have the ability to catch him, but why should I help you?"

Qi Ling chose to continue the disguise and did not intend to reveal the true identity of the insect-type greedy one.

What does the "insect-catching greedy person" have to do with me, Qi Ling?

"Hmm..." E also remained silent.

Indeed, he knew that Qi Ling liked to stir up trouble.

If he were in crisis, this guy would definitely not easily lend a helping hand.

Fortunately, he was prepared.

"I have a special item. If you help me, it will be yours."

After saying that, he sent a photo showing a red trigger.

This is the Hazard Activation Device, an item used in Hazard Mode of Build.

It was something that E-bodied plundered from Katsuragi Takumi back then.

“Your business is my business, I’m definitely going to help you with this,” Qi Ling replied immediately.

It's simple: you catch yourself!

……

Inside the Eastern Capital.

Inside a residential house.

"Is everything you've said about Qiao true?"

A woman in her fifties was staring at the new guests who had come to her home.

She is Katsuragi Kyoka, the biological mother of Katsuragi Takumi.

Having heard that the other party possessed secret information about Katsuragi Takumi, he led the two into his home.

"Yes."

Kiryu Sento nodded.

They found this place with the help of information obtained by Moko.

As for Kazumi Saruwatari, since it was inconvenient to return it to the coffee shop, it was simply moved over as well.

He is now lying unconscious in the next room, and is bound.

As for the smuggling agent, he was only injected with ordinary nebula gas, and he woke up after the gas was extracted.

"Look, here is the evidence I brought."

As he spoke, Zhan Tu pulled out a USB flash drive.

It contains all the information he has collected so far related to Katsuragi Takumi.

Plug it into your computer and check it.

"I see. So that's what Takumi has been doing all these years, and he's even been called a devil scientist." Kyoka Katsuragi observed a series of intelligence reports.

As a mother, she certainly didn't want to believe that her son had committed a crime.

But they've presented a whole host of evidence.

Furthermore, before Katsuragi Takumi died, he exhibited many strange behaviors and was even unwilling to tell himself what he was doing.

Most of what these two people said is true.

"We've come here to find out if Katsuragi Takumi left any research materials behind," Sento immediately inquired.

As a scientist capable of developing the Striker, Katsuragi Takumi must have known some of the Striker's weaknesses.

If we can find a weakness, it will certainly help in defeating Faust.

“Back then, Takumi did leave something in my hands, but why would I give it to you?” Katsuragi Kyoka stared at Ryuga’s face beside her.

As the criminal who killed Katsuragi Takumi, she had already carefully looked at this face countless times on the wanted poster.

If she weren't outmatched by the boxer, she would have loved to go up and punch Ryuga a few times.

"I didn't kill anyone, I was just taking the blame for Zhan Tu!" Ryuga quickly waved his hand.

Then she briefly recounted what had happened between herself and Zhan Tu during this period.

Just as he finished speaking, Sento's ears twitched twice.

Because of his strong physique, his perception is also stronger than that of ordinary people.

He suddenly heard light footsteps at the door, and there were a lot of them.

"Could it be... to lie down!"

boom!

The explosion destroyed the door.

Xue Qian swaggered in with three young men.

"Blood Lurker, how did you find us?" Long Wu asked, puzzled.

Because he was not only a criminal but also an illegal immigrant, he was extremely cautious on his way to Kyoka Katsuragi's house.

Even passersby avoided it.

In theory, no one should know where they are.

"It's just a coincidence. You're not my main target this time." Xue Qian wagged his finger and turned to look at Katsuragi Kyoka.

"Catch her!"

Upon hearing the order, the three young men beside him immediately moved to approach.

"Damn it, their target is also Katsuragi Takumi's research data!" Sento reacted quickly.

He threw a straight punch at the youths.

To prevent himself from accidentally killing someone with too much strength, he deliberately held back a bit of his strength.

The next second, the youths, with an eerie speed, each punched Zhan Tu in various parts of his body, sending him flying.

"How could this be..." Sento was shocked.

That's clearly not an action that humans can do.

Do they also have a danger level?

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Are You a Hero or a Demon?

"Blood Lurker, this time I will not let you take the data!" War Rabbit quickly stood up.

Snap the driver back onto your waist, ready to transform at any moment.

"Rob? You must have misunderstood something. We're just taking back what's ours."

E simply shrugged indifferently.
