Knight Asylum

"...Of course," Reid loosened his fingers.

"Okay, now there are many questions. Was this planned by Kane alone? You know, it's not just the undead beasts who are coveting the power of the golden fruit. Even if this is a game planned by Kane alone, other undead beasts and other forces will definitely not want to miss the opportunity to harvest a large amount of golden fruits in one go," seeing that Reid was no longer tense, Kiryu Battle Rabbit breathed a sigh of relief.

"We will take care of those guys, Red, you just focus on rescuing Zhenli and the others."

"It's up to you."

"We are companions," Kiryuu Battle Rabbit smiled.

……

Takano squatted on the rooftop, scanning the city with his sharp eyes. After a brief pause, Takano let out a light exclamation.

"Give up J, there's no way you'll find them."

Gao Ye paused, stood up very slowly, and turned back into his undead beast form. "Did you do this? K."

Kane crossed his arms over his chest, not caring about Takano's hostility at all, "Don't look at me like that. You should know that you can't beat me."

"So what?" Takano flexed his fingers and stared at Kane without fear.

"It's still the same. Why do you guys... take it so seriously? It's obviously meaningless. Never mind..." Kane rolled his eyes. "I just came to invite you and... Ah~ Chalice to play a game."

Chapter 1166 There Are Only Monsters Here

"Games? Boring, don't drag Chalice into your evil ways!"

Gao Ye rushed straight towards Kane, opened his claws, and turned them into three cold rays of light that swung towards Kane's neck.

"You, really do care about Chalice as always. This is truly a masterpiece - the gods have a much better sense of evil than I do."

Not only was Kane not angry because of Takano's attack, he even raised the corner of his mouth happily. He used the ability to stop time to easily avoid Takano's attack, kept some distance, and stood on the water tank, looking down at Takano, who was a vulture undead beast.

As a Category K, even without using the Category 10 ability, he could just hang up Takano and beat him up like a game, but that would be too boring.

"Oh~ By the way - J, do you know the secret that Chalice has been hiding?"

When Kane thought of that scene, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

"Secret? What are you talking about?" Gao Ye paused.

"You really don't know? That's a secret that is extremely bad and extremely empty. If you want to know, just participate in this game. If you win in the end..." Kane squatted down and smiled meaningfully at Takano.

"I will give you a chance to duel with me. I will only use my power as Category K. If you win, you will become the new king."

"...I can also defeat you right now!"

As he said that, Gao Ye flew into the air and attacked Kane again.

This made Kane speechless, but also made him more excited.

Takano's current behavior only proves one thing, that is, Takano really cares about Chalice. The more Takano cares about Chalice, the more devastated he will be when he knows Chalice's secret.

"You can't defeat me as you are now."

Kane stretched out his hand and transformed into a Halberd-shaped beetle undead beast. He swung his heavy sword down, and with just one strike, he knocked Gao Ye down from mid-air.

Gao Ye pulled himself out of the rubble with great difficulty and looked in the direction of Kane with unwillingness on his face, but Kane had disappeared.

"Damn it - there's such a big difference..."

Gao Ye loosened his arms and lay back down. Looking at the vast sky, Gao Ye gradually frowned.

"Chalice's...secret?"

Jacaranda.

Kurihara Amane, who was wiping the table, blinked, stared at the back of Aikawa Hajime who was mopping the floor for a long time, then tilted her head, “Hajime, shouldn’t you be taking pictures now? Why did you come back so early? You’re not busy at all now.”

Aikawa Hajime paused and remained silent for a long time, still unable to think of a reason to be vague about it.

“Ah——Could it be, Hajime-nii, you… saw something terrible?”

Although she is young, Kurihara Amane is a woman after all. Her terrifying intuition allows her to get close to the truth almost instantly, and Aikawa Hajime's momentary wandering of vision allows Kurihara Amane to confirm her guess.

“Brother Shi, stop mopping the floor and sit here—”

Kurihara Tenon put down the rag in her hand, sat on the chair, and pointed at the chair opposite with a serious face. She was obviously just a young child, but at this moment she put on the airs of an adult. As an adult, Aikawa Hajime sat down very stiffly under the control of this aura.

Kurihara Tianyin crossed her arms over her chest and stared straight into Aikawa Hajime's eyes. When Aikawa Hajime couldn't stand being stared at anymore, she let out a sigh, "Brother Hajime, there are always good and bad things in this world. You can't always think about the good things, and you can't forget that there are good things waiting for you just because bad things happen."

Seeing that Kurihara Amane was actually lecturing in an adult's tone, Aikawa Hajime couldn't help but laugh. He stepped forward and gently patted Kurihara Amane's head, "I know."

"Really?"

"real--"

Aikawa Hajime leaned back in his chair, let out a long breath, tilted his head, and felt the sunlight falling from the direction of Kurihara Amane and shining on him.

He remembered what Gao Ye said again.

You are a redundant existence

The sunlight seemed to shine through his ethereal body.

At this moment, a figure stood up, and the raised shadow swallowed the light brought by Kurihara Tenon.

Aikawa Hajime's pupils shrank and he turned his head stiffly to look. Outside the window, Takano was looking down at him. Inside the glass, next to Takano, [Aikawa Hajime] was also looking down at him.

On the morning of that day, all electronic devices in the Xingxiu District, the busiest neighborhood in [S·L], including everyone's mobile phones, were invaded, and a strange mask appeared on the screen.

"Everyone! It's time to play games!"

The moment the masked man opened his mouth, the three Igarashi siblings, who were trying to continue hiding the whereabouts of Igarashi Genta from Igarashi Yukimi, were completely frozen.

That was their father's voice.

Igarashi Yukimi, who had already noticed something, became completely gloomy.

"Yes, Bell?"

Inside the laboratory, Reid and others stared at the screen in front of them with grim expressions.

The scientific team has carried out an outrageous level of transformation and upgrade of the system used by the Intelligent Brain Group from top to bottom, making it impossible for any hacking to occur. However, it doesn't matter whether they have been hacked or not.

"This voice is Igarashi Genta," Daido Katsumi said with an extremely ugly expression, "Sure enough, the devil is also involved in this matter."

The masked man's terrifying game continues, but this time he zooms out so that the audience can see the dim cage.

The members of Meteor Academy were being locked in cages. Some were huddled in the corners of the cages with pale faces, while others were holding the iron bars with both hands, their eyes red, like bloodthirsty beasts.

"The name of this game is, be killed by monsters, or become a monster to kill monsters. Oh~ sorry, sorry, the name is a bit long. In short, it's about killing each other!"

"Let me introduce them to you. They are Meteoric Academy. They were orphaned due to an accident and were adopted by an orphanage called Meteoric Academy. They grew up together."

"Although they are not related by blood, they have a bond that is deeper than blood."

"The content of the game is very simple—"

The masked man opened his hands.

“No requirements!”

"I won't do anything. Whatever they do next is entirely up to them."

"Despicable!" Even Kiryu Sento couldn't help but curse.

There is nothing they can do, they have already done everything they can.

It was obvious that several Meteor Academy members had been corrupted by the undead beasts' desire to fight. The moment the cage was opened, they would frantically attack other Meteor Academy members, and those Meteor Academy members who still retained their sanity could only use their belts to fight.

And once they start fighting, they will be affected by the desire to fight.

At this time, the masked man put his face close to the camera again.

"In this world, there have always been only monsters, not Kamen Riders."

Chapter 1167: Monsters thrown into hell

"Damn it!!!!"

Although it was only a moment, Masato Soka still discovered Mari Sonoda from those frames.

He cares about his classmates at Ryusei Juku; after all, they are his family who grew up with him, but he is also very realistic.

He would avenge his companions at Meteoric Juku, but he would never save them and would not step into this obvious trap. But if Sonoda Mari was involved, that would be another matter.

Even if it was a trap, he would go!

Masato Kusaga was holding the strongest belt that Montana mentioned. When he left, he saw the Kaixa belt that had been thrown in the corner and had not been used for a long time.

After hesitating for a while, Kusaga Masato grabbed the Kaixa belt and stuffed it into his backpack, then rushed out quickly. As soon as he got on the motorcycle, a man came out and blocked the motorcycle.

"Are you serious? Do you really want to go into such an obvious trap?"

Kusaga Masato narrowed his eyes, "Don't get in the way!"

The person who came was Yoshinaga Miyuki.

Seeing Kusanagi Kayato so manic and uncalm, Yoshinaga Miyuki was surprised and felt uncomfortable at the same time.

Although they didn't spend much time together, it was enough for her to see what kind of person Kusaga Yato was.

He is so calm that he can even be called cruel. He is a complete egoist and only cares about himself.

From the moment he knew that someone was targeting the lives of the Ryusei Juku members, Soka Masato had been staying in [S·L] and had no intention of leaving.

But now, Masato Soka has to leave this safe haven for Mari Sonoda.

Although it is twisted, Masato Soka's feelings for Mari Sonoda are so pure and sincere that even Miyuki Yoshinaga is a little jealous.

She has won the favor and protection of many people with her delicate appearance and acting skills, but those feelings are very fake and turbid.

Just like mud and water, they would run away as soon as they encountered the slightest trouble. She had never met anyone who was willing to fight for her at the cost of everything.

"Are you serious? She never expects you to save her. Even if you appear in front of her, she won't be happy. The hero she expects is stronger than you, more...attractive than you, and her hero will definitely save her. But you...even if you go, there is no way you can get to her. Maybe she won't know you saved her until she dies."

Every word Yoshinaga Miyuki said was as sharp as a knife, cutting right to the point.

Yoshinaga Miyuki felt that no matter how much Masato Soka liked Mari Sonoda, he should calm down.

But Kusaga Masato's eyes became firm. He raised his hand to pull down his goggles, started the engine and passed by Yoshinaga Miyuki.

Yoshinaga Miyuki pursed her lips unwillingly.

"cut--"

……

Red went down to the underground garage as fast as he could. The Mobile Pegasus had been waiting for him from the beginning, but there was another person sitting on it.

"Are we going to set off?" Qiao sighed helplessly, "You will definitely be saved by the truth, right?"

"Yes, although the truth will definitely not tremble like a hamster, waiting for me to rescue her, but... I don't want to see her covered in scars," Red shook his head.

"You're still planning on saving her other companions, right? Even if they're beyond help."

Reid paused for a moment, then put his hands on his hips. "There is no such thing as hopelessness. There is only...giving up. I don't plan to give up. If you don't obey, I'll beat you up first. If you die, nothing can really be changed. However, as long as you are still alive, there is still a possibility of change."

Qiao moved his mouth, lowered his head, got out of the car and came to Red, raised his hand and put the helmet on Red's head, "Then, go and change all this."

As he spoke, Qiao reached out and pulled down the goggles on his helmet.

"I'll be back soon!"

Red raised his fist and knocked on his chest, grinned, raised his legs and sat on the mobile Pegasus, started the engine and rushed out.

The roar of the engine gradually faded away, and Qiao's hands fell down weakly.

"If, Red, your strength is still there..."

Takumi hates the word "power". Once she is associated with power, she becomes a stranger. But after getting along with Red and getting to know Kiryu Battle Rabbit and the others through Red, Takumi understands one thing: power is power, there is no distinction between good and evil, and most of the time, people just use power as an excuse.

So, she hopes that Red can have power, more and more powerful power.

Spots of fluorescent light floated by, pointing in a certain direction.

The playground is located in an abandoned prison by the sea.

In the early days of the prison's construction, the relationship between humans and monsters was quite bad. In the eyes of humans, monsters were evil beasts that should not exist in the world. The place where the evil beasts were imprisoned was naturally not luxurious. There were only dirty cages and no heating facilities. It was damp, cold, and dark, just like hell.

The prisoners held there have to endure the harsh environment all the time. Even weirdos would suffer psychological trauma, let alone humans.

But with the development of the times, after having to explain their coexistence with weirdos, humans have become more resilient and no longer reject weirdos as they did at the beginning. Some even begin to understand weirdos. In the wave of understanding of weirdos, the first thing to be destroyed was this harsh seaside prison.

The horrific photos that once promoted human supremacy have become the most powerful evidence leading to its downfall.

Eventually, the seaside prison became a shadow that no one cared about.
