Knight Asylum

"This is a driver that can allow humans to gain demonic power."

"The power...of the devil?"

The man swallowed thickly, reaching out with a trembling hand and grabbing the dual-port driver.

"Don't you need to look at it?" At this time, the weirdo with insect features also leaned close to the man's ear and kindly reminded him, "If you are satisfied, our contract is complete."

The man subconsciously thought of Red who had bumped into him in the jewelry store just now, and immediately showed a ferocious smile.

Chapter 290: The Rioting Moon

Tendou Souji smiled slightly, "I didn't expect to meet you here, don't you think it's a coincidence?"

Red raised his brows slightly and his eyes fell on the small iron basin held in Tendō Souji's left hand. A piece of white tofu was steadily staying in the middle of the clear water. Red looked around again and found that there was no store selling tofu on the noisy street.

"Coincidence...?"

"Of course it's a coincidence. My sister insisted on eating tofu today." Tendou Souji smiled slightly without paying attention to Reid's slightly suspicious gaze, "But, I think I bought a little too much. If you don't mind - huh? This city is really noisy."

Tiandao Zongsi sighed and slowly turned sideways. The next second, the uprooted street lamp smashed into the place where Tiandao Zongsi had just stood like a cannonball. The strong wind made Tiandao Zongsi's hair rustle, but the water surface in the iron basin held in Tiandao Zongsi's left hand was extremely calm.

Red raised his foot and stomped on the street lamp that was plowing the ground, causing it to stop.

Looking up, Reid couldn't help but twitch his lips.

"That's not it. It's just a little noise."

Not far away, people were screaming and fleeing. Yellow tentacles were swinging wildly and hitting the ground. At the end of the tentacles, a mass of yellow substance was shaking wildly at an extremely high frequency. The street lamp was thrown by that thing just now.

Because this is a downtown area and not too far from the public security department, dozens of military armed mechas quickly landed here, shooting and rushing towards the yellow substance.

Red's face changed and he stepped forward immediately.

Because of the attack of the yellow substance, the traffic here was completely paralyzed, and many vehicles were stuck on the road. Some people escaped, but some were still trapped in the car. The military mechas did not evacuate the citizens immediately, but launched an attack directly. Because of the actions of the military mechas, the already paralyzed scene became even more chaotic.

"Shit - Hey! There are still many citizens who haven't evacuated yet!"

However, most of the military mechas of the public security department are remotely controlled. The operators may be able to hear Reid's voice, but their operational guidelines are always suppression over rescue.

Red had no choice but to dodge stray bullets while squeezing into the war zone.

"Help, help me!"

The people trapped in the car banged on the windows in despair, calling for help from Red, and begging for help, fearing that Red would turn around and leave because of the danger.

"It's okay now."

Red pulled the car door and found that it was completely locked. Red pulled the car window hard and shattered it on the spot, and the entire car door was pulled down.

Reid casually threw the car door back and pulled the stunned man out of the car, "Can you still walk?"

"Go, walk," the man swallowed hard, and used all four limbs to flee in panic. It was unclear whether he was afraid of Reid or the increasingly ferocious stray bullets.

Red didn't think too much and continued to move forward and rescue those who were still trapped in the car one by one.

Looking at Reid who was rescuing people, Tiandao Zongsi exhaled lightly, glanced at the tofu in his hand, and smiled helplessly, "Shuhua, tofu, I can only eat it another day."

Tendo Souji threw the iron basin containing tofu in his hand upwards, pulled down his right hand to open his jacket, revealing the belt around his waist, and walked sideways towards the battlefield where stray bullets were flying. The red mechanical rhinoceros beetle flew out and slid into the belt.

【Henshin——】

The metal armor quickly rose up and covered Tendo Souji's body.

“Cast off——”

The heavy armor all popped out, revealing the bright red light armor, and the red horn raised.

【Cast off Change Beetle】

Reid was startled and felt someone passing by him. The next second, dozens of car doors, including the door in front of him, flew up, and all the lives trapped in the stray bullets were moved outside the battlefield. Only the girl in the car in front of him was left, holding her head and trembling.

Reid shook his head and without thinking about why, he extended his hand to the girl.

"Are you ok?"

"I, I'm fine."

The girl raised her head. For some reason, Red felt that the girl in front of him was very familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere. However, his memory seemed to be covered with a thick fog, and he could not find any trace of the girl.

At this moment, something strange happened. The yellow substance that was just waving its tentacles chaotically suddenly turned its body to face Red's direction. The smooth and somewhat disgusting body began to squirm wildly. The cold muzzle of a gun broke out of its body and aimed at Red's direction. A dangerous red light flashed.

"boom--"

Countless light bullets burst like fireworks but then changed direction in mid-air and shot straight towards Reid. The military mecha had no time to react and was only grazed by it, with half of its body dug out. The girl screamed and hugged her head.

"Ah~ You are so willful. Now is obviously not the best opportunity to confront him."

In the high-rise building, Sudo Kirihiko put his hands behind his back and sighed helplessly.

"Is it really okay to indulge her curiosity like this?" The insect-like monster behind Sudo Kirihiko gradually became illusory, and finally turned into a blurry figure like a ghost.

"If we restrict her curiosity now, it will only cause more trouble later."

"But... what you said does make sense," Sudo Kirihiko took out a blue USB flash drive marked with T from his pocket, "It's rare to find an individual who can match Trigger. Just because she is curious about how strong Red's power is, she forced the memory of Luna to control the man to attack Red... She is simply the devil itself."

"Really? Is this your wish? Do you need me to help you realize it? There's only one price you need to pay."

"How could that be?" Sudo Kirihiko smiled and turned around and raised his head. "Her curiosity is nothing more than a small matter for this city."

The fierce flames dissipated, and golden arcs of electricity jumped. The girl raised her head blankly, and her eyes reflected the pair of burning red eyes and the oppressive body.

Red stretched out his hand to pull the girl out, but before he touched her, she screamed and subconsciously hugged her head, trembling with fear.

Red's fingers trembled, his shoulders slumped slightly, he came to the back of the car and kicked it up. The car the girl was in knocked away all the cars blocking the road and escaped from the dangerous war zone. Turning around, countless bullets fell, and the surrounding cars exploded one after another. Fierce flames and splashing debris hit Red's body, but Red was like a boulder standing in front of the waves. No matter how fierce the impact was, it could not affect him.

At this time, Red did not notice that the holy girl in white in the fire was looking at him apologetically, repeating three words with her mouth opening and closing.

【sorry】

Chapter 291: The Limit of Fantasy

In the white space, densely packed bookshelves are arranged vertically and horizontally. The girl holds her chin with her right hand, a blank book with her left hand, and her eyes are fixed on the blank space ahead.

"Eh - Trigger doesn't work? I'm pretty confident. No, it could also be that the user's adaptability is not good enough."

The girl tilted her head in distress.

"But there is not always an opportunity to collect data."

The yellow substance in front of Reid gathered in a vortex shape. Rows of gun barrels squeezed out from the gaps. A terrifying halo appeared in it, but before they were fired, fierce flames engulfed all the gun barrels.

Supernatural ignition is one of the manifestations of mastering the ultimate power. At least so far, no monster can withstand this move except Gurongi who also possesses the ultimate power and Odin who is unknown in that layer.

Red put down his right hand and was about to leave when a yellow tentacle shot out from the flames and bound Red's body. The surface of the tentacle was still sickeningly smooth, with no signs of being burned by the flames.

"Not working?" Red was a little surprised and triggered another supernatural ignition. This time, not even a spark came out of the surface of the yellow tentacle.

The corners of the girl's mouth rose slightly. "The ability to ignite a supernatural fire? This is indeed a terrifying ability, but it is ultimately just a physical phenomenon. As long as it is a physical phenomenon, Luna, the memory of the power of fantasy, this is not a power that can be interpreted physically. I have done a lot of homework."

The tentacles that bound Red began to tighten and swell, as if trying to swallow Red.

"Why not just catch it like this—"

A golden arc of electricity flashed by, and the earth surged. The steel bars that broke out of the ground tore the yellow tentacles like bone spurs, but the flying yellow fragments did not disappear. Instead, they shrank into new individuals. The seemingly soft tentacles stabbed towards Reid's joints like bayonets. At the same time, the raised steel bars intertwined with each other to form a huge drill that stabbed the tentacle's body.

The tentacle fell and broke the moment it hit Reid's joint, and a huge hole was punched in the tentacle's body by the drill.

"What an outrageous defensive ability," the girl couldn't help but grumble before she stood up and put the book back on the shelf. "No... Luna alone isn't enough, Metal? No... Only a power that can break the routine will do - it's really a headache."

The girl paused and tilted her head back.

"Forget it - this is a rare opportunity, let's see the limits of Luna and Trigger first."

The huge hole was instantly filled with yellow matter, and the contracted body began to wriggle and expand at an extremely high frequency. The dense gun barrels drilled out and surged up and down like maggots breaking out of the body. In a blink of an eye, the body size exceeded 30 meters and was still expanding further.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

The military mechas that had not been destroyed and detected the high-energy reaction retreated at an extremely fast speed, and soon only Red was left standing there.

"who are you?"

Reid stared at the yellow substance that was constantly expanding in front of him, and the Aguru belt around his waist turned the color of a fiery cloud.

The girl who was flipping through the book was stunned and looked over with interest.

"This is really interesting. How did you notice me?"

The girl's answer was a momentary brilliance, and the white space collapsed instantly. The girl opened her eyes, looked around, and her sight stopped on a yellow memory that was still emitting black smoke not far away.

"What a terrifying power - even the power of imagination is not enough to resist it?"

The girl put her hands behind her head and crossed her legs, recalling the scene just now. But before she could come to a conclusion, the laboratory door was roughly pushed open and Sonosaki Saeko walked in impatiently.

“I heard from Kirihiko that you used Luna’s power without permission!? The experimental combination this time was clearly Trigger memory and Metal memory!”

The girl didn't even look at Sonosaki Saeko, she stood up and paced back and forth in the laboratory, holding a blank book and muttering to herself.

Veins bulged on Sonosaki Saeko's forehead, and as soon as she opened her mouth, the girl suddenly turned around and raised her finger.

"Have people from the Sage's Tower contacted the museum recently? They want to use the museum's power to land on the moon."

Sonosaki Saeko's breathing stagnated. She crossed her arms over her chest and turned her face away, her expression somewhat grim. "This has nothing to do with you."

"Promise them."

The girl ignored Sonosaki Saeko. Her calm tone didn't sound like an order, but it was not polite either. This made Sonosaki Saeko's blood pressure soar. She wanted to slap her in the face, but the girl was vital to the entire museum, so she couldn't do that.

"I need to know why," Sonosaki Saeko took a deep breath and suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart.

"Well - to put it simply... I need to increase the power of Luna's memory."

"Really? I understand."

Having found a reason to convince herself not to lose her temper, Sonosaki Saeko immediately left the laboratory. If she stayed in the same room with the girl again, she would definitely not be able to hold it back. However, it was only after she left the laboratory that Sonosaki Saeko came to her senses.

What does increasing the power of Luna's memory have to do with helping the Tower of Sages reach the moon?

----

"Uncle?"

Standing in the ruins, Red looked in surprise at the middle-aged man who appeared in front of him. He was wearing a round-brimmed hat, looked to be in poor health, and was holding a silver box in his left hand.

Ming Hai raised the round-brimmed hat on his head, "What's the target?"

Red blinked his eyes, let out a long "ah" and took out a long, smoking piece of debris from his back.

"That's all that's left."

Ming Hai was silent for a while and then nodded, opened the box and put the fragments in, "Thank you for your hard work - do you think there is anything strange about our opponent this time?"

"Is it a strange place..." Reid frowned after thinking for a while, "It feels very stitched."

"Suture?" Ming Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Yes, it's like two completely unrelated powers are forcibly mixed together," Red gestured with his hands, "One power is related to firearms, and the other power, I can't quite describe it, but that power can ignore supernatural ignition abilities."

Upon hearing that he could ignore Kuuga's supernatural ignition ability, Ming Hai's expression immediately became serious. He took out a business card from his arms and stuffed it into Red's pocket.

"Red, this is the location of my office. Come over when you have time. I have something I want to talk to you about."

"I'm free right now," Reid winked.

Ming Hai didn't answer but just turned his head to look behind Red. Red turned his head and saw Tendou Souji standing not far away. Seeing Red looking at him, Tendou Souji raised the empty iron basin in his hand and shook it.

"Can you do me a favor?"

Chapter 292 Gao Siwu

There is no such thing as coincidence in this world, only a destiny that has already been arranged.

Red didn't think that Tiandao Zongsi was a bad person, but he was very suspicious of the coincidence that Tiandao Zongsi mentioned. How could there be no place selling tofu in this busy city?

"Isn't this the way of heaven? What's wrong?"

"Something happened on the way back, and the tofu was gone, but I promised Shuhua that tonight's dinner would be tofu dishes."

"Ah~ Was that the noise just now? You are so unfortunate."

Reid looked at the middle-aged man with a turban on his head with a subtle expression, and then looked at Tendo Souji who looked like a male model who had just walked a fashion show.

There really was a place selling tofu, and it was not far from where Tendo Souji and he met by chance. Of course, it was very normal that he did not notice this tofu shop. This shop was located in Diagon Alley in the crowded city.

Tendo Souji, who looks handsome and like the most dazzling star in the world, looks both out of place and natural standing in the crowded Diagon Alley.

"But, God, each person can only buy one, that's the rule, so I'm sorry," the middle-aged man clasped his hands together with an apologetic look on his face.

"Boss, what are you talking about? Your tofu is a treasure here," Tiandao Zongsi smiled and turned to look at Reid.
