Knight Asylum

"Huh?" Sonoda Mari was stunned.

She didn't understand most of the content, but there was one thing she understood: the women Red knew had a high probability of becoming a being called the Daughter of Origin, and being attacked was equivalent to ensuring that she would become the Daughter of Origin.

And who is Red, the Daughter of Origin? She is not an idiot. She knows the relationship between Adam and Eve.

That is to say...

"Why! Why are you saying this at this time! Are you a devil? This is too hellish!"

Click——

Mari Sonoda seemed to hear some broken sound, which was probably something important in her heart.

Along with the sadness came a sense of liberation that nearly made her faint.

After a while, Sonoda Mari pushed open the bathroom door, with her hands hanging down at both sides of her body and her head lowered.

"Uh... Mari, are you okay?"

"Heh... heh, heh, Reid, it's just like what you said. Something very important in my heart has been shattered. There's nothing left. I feel like nothing matters anymore."

Under Reid's gaze, Sonoda Mari raised her head, shook it, and laughed in self-deprecation with an expression as if nothing mattered.

After a moment of silence, Reid raised his hand and patted Sonoda Mari on the shoulder.

"I'm very happy that you're not holding it in anymore."

Sonoda Mari took a deep breath, lowered her head, and scratched her hair hard, "Well - so? Although I have no idea what's going on, when will I change, when will you become, ahem -..."

Sonoda blushed and turned his face away.

"Owner of the Golden Fruit, this should be a protracted battle. It won't take three to five years..."

"If nothing unexpected happens, about two months."

“Two—cough!? Two months!? I, I’m not that cheap! Don’t look down on me!”

Mari Sonoda coughed heavily, denied it with gestures for a while, then put her hands on her hips, closed her eyes, and nodded seriously.

"Yes, unfortunately, it won't take two months anyway."

After saying that, Sonoda Mari quietly opened her eyes and peeked at Red's reaction. She thought Red would be shocked and apologize for his contemptuous remarks just now, and then...

Although she still doesn't understand, it is related to the future of mankind after all. No matter who the Daughter of Origin is, she will do her best.

"That's right... So was the attack really just a coincidence?" Red raised his chin, "Or was it just luck?"

"Eh? There are others? No..." Sonoda Mari's mouth twitched, "Hey - how many are there?"

"one two three four……"

"Ahhh-"

Chapter 620: It is always the angels who destroy the devil

Kiryu Battle Rabbit Laboratory.

"so?"

Kiryu Sento held his chin with his right hand and hooked the edge of the seal with his left hand, shaking it gently left and right.

"Is it possible that the girl named Sonoda Mari is your daughter of origin?"

"She said that it would be impossible to deal with her in two months," Red let out a long breath while lying on the table. "At that time, there were four people present: Xiao Xing, Qiao, Sonoda Mari, and...Baruba from the La Group."

Even Kiryu Sento could only use Wow-- to express his current thoughts.

It seemed that Ishidoso, who had just returned from the construction site, came to Red with a cup of coffee. Before he put the coffee down, Red took out a can of coffee from his pocket and put it on the table.

Ishido So's hand trembled, his mouth opened wide, and he immediately turned to look at Kiryu Sento, who had already taken out a can of coffee.

He shuddered again and looked at the other people in the laboratory.

Even Philip had cans of coffee on hand.

What is happening to this world?

Why do these people prefer to drink cheap canned coffee instead of handmade coffee carefully ground by artisans.

Ishido hunched over, shook his head, and sat aside. The background was dark, and he seemed to be exiling himself, but in fact—

Turned on his cell phone.

He was going to live broadcast the chat between Red and Kiryu Battle Rabbit! Of course, it was the content of the conversation that he had carefully edited!

"Well, generally speaking, when a girl tells you that it's impossible to get her in two months... doesn't that mean she's already been got?" Wanzhanglong thought for a while and then raised his hand to complain.

Before Reid could speak, Kiryuu Sento raised his hand and waved, "Idiot, how is this possible?"

"Hey - Battle Rabbit, you're a physicist, right? No matter how you think about it, this isn't something you, a science student, are good at!"

Banjo Ryu I retorted unhappily, it was okay regarding the physics aspect, he was indeed a fool, but as a man who had a girlfriend, he didn't want to be looked down upon by Kiryu Battle Rabbit, who had dealt with science.

"You're the idiot! You obviously don't even have a girlfriend! But I have one! I definitely know better than you, just show me if you don't believe me!"

"Huh? Do you think this kind of boring provocation will work on me?"

Kiryu Battle Rabbit raised his eyebrows, stood up, turned around, picked up the Falcon Gatling gun on the table, and laughed sinisterly.

"If I win, I'll use you to practice tracing. You'd better be careful, or you won't have to find a girlfriend in the future."

I blinked my eyes and reacted. I felt a chill and covered my crotch in an instant, "Hey! You guys, aren't you super high?"

"Stop making so much noise! ​​It's just a thousand feet. All phenomena in this world can be explained by physical phenomena!"

Having been exposed, Kiryu Sento stopped pretending and angrily picked up a marker and started writing various formulas on the blackboard.

"It's just the hormones at work!"

"No! Don't taint love in this way!"

I shouted as I walked over with an eraser in my hand and erased all the formulas written by Kiryuu Sento.

"Damn it - Wanzhang, please don't get in my way!"

Looking at the noisy Manjo Ryuga and Kiryu Battle Rabbit, Red raised his hand, hesitated for a moment and decided to give up, and turned to look at Philip who was cheering with interest on the side.

"Philip, how's the seal investigation going?"

"what?"

"Hey……"

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten it. You should praise me. I searched the memory of the Earth for five or six hours and finally found the information about this seal."

Philip put his hands on his hips, raised the back of his head proudly, and raised his right hand in Red's direction.

"The seal is not made of a substance from Earth, but Earth's memory of this metal dates back thousands of years."

"A thousand years?" Reid subconsciously glanced at Ishido Soichi and remembered Ishido Soichi's previous theory of alien invasion.

All speculations depend on what Ishido Soichi says, as well as his style of doing things and his personality.

Before, Red thought it made sense, but he didn't take it too seriously.

"Really... aliens?"

"Obviously, yes, but there was no concept of aliens at that time, so people at that time used this word to describe it."

Philip paused, spread out his left hand, and pointed his right hand at the ceiling.

"demon."

"..."

“So bland!!!”

"Thousands of years ago, alien life forms called demons came to this world, but thousands of years later, demons are still just fantasy creatures that people talk about the most. This means that no matter what the demons wanted to do thousands of years ago, they failed."

Red tilted his head.

"Otherwise you wouldn't need so much time to search, right?"

"Indeed, that's the case. The Earth's memory is not something that can be changed at will like an archive."

Philip was pacing back and forth with his chin in his hand.

"Something must have happened, causing the demon that came thousands of years ago or even earlier to disappear without doing anything."

"Ah, could it be that God and his angels did this?"

Ishidoso blinked, stood up and held his chin, as if thinking about something.

"Angel?" Reid raised his eyebrows.

"That's right! Since demons are real, then angels who are mortal enemies of demons and are always hunting demons in myths should also exist," Philip's eyes lit up, and he pushed Kiryu Sento and Banko Ryuga away and started writing and drawing on the blackboard.

"In the memory of the Earth, the end of the demons is always to be sealed under the earth by angels. They can never interfere with reality and can only occasionally whisper in the ears of humans, what is hell... how can we get to hell..."

"That's right! Hell is the memory of the Earth! There are no traces of demons on the earth anymore, they only exist in memory! Only what happened on the Earth itself cannot be erased, it can only be covered up!"

"That's why those guys use Gaia memories. Those Gaia memories that should have lost their potential can suddenly exert even more powerful power. Just like the Hunter Star Clan, the demons will not really die because of the demise of their bodies. As long as certain conditions are met, their consciousness will awaken from the memory."

"And the human body is the medium through which they gain physical form. These two seals are [Devils]. Then what about angels? What about the God who created angels? What kind of existence is He?"

Philip was in a frenzy from which no one could stop him.

Kiryuu Sento also noticed something unusual from Philip's muttering, "Does God really exist?"

"Who knows? The universe is so huge," Ishido Soichi became serious for a rare moment.

"Anything is possible."

"The shackles of God have been broken..."

Red murmured and raised his eyes.

Chapter 621: The Attacker

Gods, angels, demons, this is undoubtedly a huge discovery.

But these are just speculations after all, without any actual evidence.

As Philip described it, the angels were extremely ruthless and killed all the demons without leaving any trace, and this ruthless act of extermination became the best cover-up.

To the extent that now, using the word "demon" alone, there is no way to search from the Earth's memory for the true identity of the organization that is currently using Gaia's memory to help demons return to reality from the hell called memory.

The only news, which is not sure whether it is good or bad, is that now that the museum has collapsed, the organization no longer hides its existence and has started to act openly, and the golden fruit is one of their targets.

As long as they are still moving, it is only a matter of time to find their true bodies.

But there are two tricky problems here.

It was obvious that there was an Origin Daughter from the demon side who was causing trouble. Anyone who would become an Origin Daughter would inevitably become the target of attack by those demon monsters. Only the Origin Daughter from the future knew who the other Origin Daughters were. Even Sengoku Ryoma could only rely on speculation. As for Sagara who claimed to be the incarnation of Helheim's will... Red didn't think that the neutral Sagara would help to this extent, otherwise Sagara could have told him the identity of the dangerous Origin Daughter from the beginning.

Another question is, Philip said that demons return to this world through the human body by obtaining entities from the hell of memory, so what kind of people do the demons need as a bridge for them to return to reality?

The first thing Red thought of was the Lion Monster that appeared in Amanokawa High School. At that time, the Lion Monster's target was Mayu Inamori, who had the talent to become a magician. According to the description of Ishido Soichi, the final boss who had a criminal record and was quite experienced, people with extremely high potential can greatly enhance the power of the refined props.

That lion monster is most likely a demon as well.

But it's only possible.

If they are both demons, the lion's rationality is much higher than that of the cobra and cheetah, and even when it was beaten up, the seal did not explode, and the students who were controlled did not suffer any damage.

Either the student did not meet the requirements to refine the seal, or the demons had two ways of operating.

One method can directly refine the Demon Seal, which is equivalent to fishing the demon out of the hell called memory, but only the source of its power, that is, the seal, is fished out, and the consciousness is not awakened.

One method only allows the demon's consciousness and power to briefly return to this reality from memory, but the main body still remains in the memory.

Cheetahs and cobras use the first approach, while lions use the second.

In order to confirm this hypothesis, Red contacted U and conducted a search by hacking into the surveillance of the shopping mall they visited today. The cheetah monster made quite a noise, and with the time provided by Sonoda Mari and Takumi, Selvi Tulia quickly confirmed the identities of the cheetah monster and the snake bite monster who ran to the park and attacked Hong Yinye.

A greasy middle-aged man with a big belly, and a woman kept by the former.

After they entered the underground parking lot, no one saw them again, and all the surrounding surveillance cameras could not see them entering or leaving. The greasy middle-aged man's car was still parked there.

The cheetah and the snakebite monster ran out after they entered the underground parking lot, so what made these two monsters? The answer is obvious.

The remaining question is who did it.

There is no truly perfect surveillance in the world, let alone a shopping mall that was built not long ago and where many details have not yet been adjusted.

The greasy middle-aged man was obviously an expert in finding blind spots to do exciting things. He went straight to the blind spot as soon as he came out of the underground garage with the woman he kept.

Then in less than five minutes, the cheetah and snake-bitten demon monsters ran out from that blind spot.
