Knight Asylum

"It seems that you realize the seriousness of the problem."

U laughed, but Red just felt his scalp tingling, which meant the situation was quite bad.

"How many people know about the golden fruit?"

"You should ask, how many people would know about it? The answer is as many as you want," U leaned sideways on the operating table.

"Do you know what the most troublesome thing about this is?"

"The power of the golden fruit?" Reid thought for a while and then answered, "It seems to be the power that can become God."

"It's for the greater good," U raised his finger, "to save humanity from the crisis of Helheim Forest, to save the world."

"【Saving the world】is a responsibility that anyone can have. Red, if someone shouts "I want to save the world" and goes to fight for the golden fruit, what would you do?"

Faced with U's question, Red fell silent.

Seeing that Red was silent, U turned around and continued.

"He would use the excuse that 'that person is a bad guy, he didn't try to save the world, that's why he took the golden fruit' to attack others. When faced with accusations, he would cry like this."

"[I know this is wrong, but I have to do it to save the world. I am willing to bear such sin.]"

U tilted his head.

"Put on a mask."

"what should you do?"

"...U, I want to make sure first, this person isn't you," Reid scratched his face after hesitating for a while, and whispered tentatively.

"It could be me, or it could be anyone in this world, but you have to admit that this is a good excuse." U tilted his head. "If someone like this really appeared in front of you, what would you do?"

"Of course, just punch the opponent's glasses to pieces," Seleu said, fanning the flames.

"When everyone wears a mask, the world will no longer need Kamen Rider," U picked up the coffee beside him, took a sip, and said lightly, "The meaning of the mask will also be distorted."

"Red, I won't tell you that you must eat the golden fruit. That's not your responsibility, but..."

"If the time comes when someone has to eat the golden fruit, I hope it's you who eats it."

Red retracted his fingers and lowered his head. "It's so heavy—"

"After all, this concerns the future of the world." U shrugged. "If there is any news about the undead beasts, I will contact you. It is not difficult to capture the low-level undead beasts, but those high-level undead beasts are very tricky and smart. I will send you the information about the undead beasts I have on hand later."

"I see--"

After declining the physical examination from Seryuu, Red left Servai Thurria on the Mobile Pegasus. Soon, the information about the undead beasts came to U.

There are a total of fifty-two undead beasts, corresponding to the four suits of playing cards, from A to K, thirteen of each. According to the existing information, the undead beasts of the club series are stronger than those of other series in terms of both ability and physical stats.

Of course, the undead beasts are not important.

The golden fruit is the source of all problems.

After thinking about it, Red turned around and went to the World Tree Foundation. He didn't know what kind of greetings Wu Daogui Hu and Zhan Ji Ling Ma had, but Red had a smooth journey and soon came to Zhan Ji Ling Ma's laboratory, which even people from the World Tree Foundation were not allowed to enter unless they were of a high level.

"Hey - how's the new type of lock working?" Zhan Ji Lingma smiled and waved to Reid.

Reid took out the integrated lock from his arms and threw it to Zhan Ji Lingma.

"It helped me a lot."

"Of course, this is after all——"

"But I can't keep up anymore," Red walked to the blackboard and looked up and down at the writing and drawing on the blackboard with his chin held high.

Red couldn't understand it at all, but when he saw the result was the symbol of an apple, Red suddenly felt that he understood it.

"Can't keep up—ah—?"

Zhan Ji Lingma was holding the integrated lock and was dumbfounded.

This is a super lock that he and Consortium X created by studying alien technology. It can even suppress the power of Helheim Forest.

He knew that Red's evolution speed was outrageous, and even the integrated lock species could not keep up, but this was too fast!

"Your integrated lock is indeed very powerful and can crush most opponents, but when you encounter a truly powerful enemy, it seems a little..."

After careful consideration, Red made a comment that almost made Zhan Ji Lingma spit out blood.

"Weak ribs."

"Hey - what on earth did you fight with to make you think that the Unified Locking Technique is useless?"

Zhan Ji Lingma coughed and pulled up a dedicated line to connect it to the integrated lock.

“Let me see the data.”

"Well - a crazy woman with omniscience and omnipotence."

Chapter 1888: Turn the golden fruit into a lock seed!

The moment Sengoku Lingma shouted, "Let me see," and connected the computer to the integrated lock, the World Tree Foundation tripped.

All the servers exploded one after another like fireworks.

The worst was Zhan Ji Lingma's computer, which exploded on the spot. The second worst was Zhan Ji Lingma, who shouted NO and was blown away.

Red scratched his face, took out his phone and turned on the flashlight, illuminating Zhan Ji Ling Ma's face, which was darker than a coal ball. "I warned you."

"Ahem - you didn't really have a fight with the omniscient and omnipotent God, did you?" Zhan Ji Lingma coughed out a puff of black smoke.

As a product of technology, the integrated lock has the function of recording combat data, but when he just wanted to check it, his computer overloaded and exploded, and even the entire World Tree Consortium tripped.

There is only one reason why this phenomenon could occur.

The data recorded in the integrated lock is so huge that the server of the World Tree Foundation has no way to read it.

"It's not the omniscient and omnipotent God, but a crazy woman who uses the power of omniscience and omnipotence," Red emphasized. "She also possesses the complete power of creation. She almost wiped me out with just a wave of her hand. Fortunately, a powerful external aid came and buffed me with the Pen of Creation."

Zhan Ji Lingma folded his arms across his chest, slowly bent his head to one side, revealing an extremely confused expression.

Red knew that look.

Kurim also had a similar expression after listening to their battle with Melo.

For scientists, omniscience and the stroke of creation are still too advanced, and this advancement will last a lifetime.

They would rather accept the existence of the Infinity Blade than acknowledge omniscience and the Pen of Creation.

So at the moment when Kamiyama Touma displayed the Blade King Sword, Dr. Kurim's lens broke again.

"Hah - wait a minute, omniscience and omnipotence? The Pen of Creation? How can such a thing... exist?!"

"...You keep asking me to eat the golden fruit and become a god. Why can't you accept the existence of omniscience and the Pen of Creation?" Reid put his hands on his hips.

"That's because the Golden Fruit and Helheim Forest are cosmic phenomena! They can be explained! Viruses, energy, evolution and so on, instead of irresponsible omniscience!"

Zhan Ji Lingma became more and more excited as he spoke, and he jumped up and pointed his right hand at Reid.

"do you understand!"

"...I understand you. If you don't believe me, you can check the data in the lock. I've been attacked many times and it hurts a lot."

Zhan Ji Lingma's fingers gradually softened.

At this time, another ray of light lit up from the entrance, and Wu Daogui Hu strode in. Seeing that Reid was also holding a mobile phone, Wu Daogui Hu was stunned for a moment and immediately looked at Zhan Ji Lingma.

"Lingma?! What did you do again? Our servers are all destroyed!"

"Takashi, don't make a fuss. Every sacrifice means that we will gain huge benefits above that. Besides, I have done emergency treatment. 321——"

As soon as Zhan Ji Lingma finished speaking, a buzzing sound was heard, and the World Tree Consortium regained its light.

But Wudao Guihu did not relax because of this, and his expression became even uglier than before.

Takatora Wudao knew very well the character of Ryoma Zhanji.

Perfect preparation means that Zhan Ji Lingma can do whatever he wants.

"Ah, Wudao, it's really not his fault this time," Reid reached out and picked up the still smoking integrated lock and waved it towards Wudao Guihu.

"He just wanted to check the data of this lock."

"Really?" Wu Daoguihu's expression looked better.

But only some.

"So? What happened?"

Takatora Wudao didn't think that Red would come to the World Tree Foundation specifically for the data in the lock seed.

After thinking for a while, Red told U about Xiangle, the undead beasts' restoration of immortality, and what U was worried about.

"I see. This is indeed a tricky matter."

After hearing this, Wu Daoguihu's already frowned even deeper.

"Really? I think things are simpler now," Zhan Ji Lingma touched his chin and raised his fist towards Reid.

"Red, for the peace of this world, eat the golden fruit!"

Reid rolled his eyes and didn't answer directly.

"Well, if you had that idea, you wouldn't have come to me," Zhan Ji Lingma was not surprised at all.

"I have a way to deal with Helheim Forest besides eating the golden fruit."

Reid raised his brows in surprise.

Wu Daoguihu showed the same expression, but he quickly suppressed it and reminded, "Red, he didn't lie, but he concealed some things."

Even though he was so bluntly exposed by Takatora Wudao, Zhan Ji Lingma was not angry at all, and even winked at Takatora Wudao.

"As expected of my good friend! You really understand me!"

"So, what is the hidden truth?" Red's eyes twitched.

"If I were to tell you, do you think I would keep it a secret? But I can guarantee one thing. Rather than eating the golden fruit directly, you would prefer my option 2."

Zhan Ji Lingma raised his finger and bent it.

"Make the golden fruit into a lock seed."

Wu Daoguihu was surprised, "Can you do this?"

"Of course, the Golden Fruit is also a fruit from the Helheim Forest. It is just more powerful than ordinary fruits—"

Zhan Ji Lingma stood up and walked to the blackboard, raised his hand and knocked hard on the formula on the blackboard.

"In fact, I have been conducting research in this area for some time, because I know that you, Red, will never eat the Golden Sangami Fruit, but I want to see you have the Golden Fruit anyway."

“So-called scientists ask questions and solve them themselves.”

If Zhan Ji Ling Ma hadn't emphasized that he would never tell the hidden truth, Red would have wanted to applaud Zhan Ji Ling Ma.

"The golden fruit will come anyway. This is an inevitable fate. The real issue is how to deal with the golden fruit."

Zhan Ji Lingma opened his hands.

"Make the Golden Fruit into a lock seed, Red. You will use the power of the Golden Fruit to move away the plants from the Helheim Forest that have invaded this world, and then pull out the lock seed of the Golden Fruit."

"Earth has been spared from being invaded by the Helheim Forest, and you don't have to eat the golden fruit. This is a win-win outcome."

Red held his chin up and thought carefully for a while. He felt that this plan was indeed feasible. Even considering the concealed truth, it was much better than him eating the golden fruit directly, which would result in people who had already undergone some kind of evolution being forcibly eliminated.

"So? What should I do?" Red let out a breath and made a decision.

"Of course~"

Zhan Ji Lingma's eyes rolled and he smiled brilliantly.

"Before the troublesome guy comes out, speed up the arrival of the golden fruit~"

Wu Daoguihu narrowed his eyes.

Sagara did not appear.

Chapter 1899: No, sister, are you so powerful?

Red sat in the seat of the Pegasus, holding a cup of hot tea, looking at the endless sky at the dock.

"The lock seed of the golden fruit?"

Thinking of Zhan Ji Lingma's plan, Red's mood became complicated.

It was clear that not long ago their plan was to avoid the arrival of the golden fruit at all costs and delay it as much as possible.
