Knight Asylum

There are countless monsters who kill people in [S·L], and some of them treat killing as a game, but only the Gurongi clan treats killing as a grand ceremony and sets strict requirements for themselves.

When you encounter Gurongi, you only have one choice: escape! Escape with all your might!

But one person noticed something was wrong.

"Look at his belt! It's copper-colored!"

The others looked at the priest's waist. He had a peculiarly shaped belt around his waist, and the color of the belt was exactly copper. The others who were about to escape were no longer panicked.

The Gurongi Group is very powerful, and most of the Gurongis are very powerful, but... there are also some at the bottom among the Gurongis who can only serve as slaves or cannon fodder. The red-copper belt is one of the proofs of this.

The fact that the belt is still red copper means that this Gurongi has never completed the killing game since the birth of the Gurongi Group. It may be only slightly stronger than an ordinary monster.

After exchanging glances, the few of them made a decision. Instead of running away, they faced the priest and took out the black box from their pockets and shook it.

"It's just that the guy at the bottom dared to act like a ghost in front of us. We are really underestimated."

They arrogantly pointed the black box at the mirror on the side and embedded the black box into their belts. Armors of different shapes flipped out from the mirror and covered their bodies.

The priest's expression instantly turned cold, and the blue veins on his forehead spread around like tentacles. His slender body began to swell abnormally, and a huge shadow gradually enveloped the dazed people.

“Don’t call me the last one!!!”

"what!!!"

The shrill screams came and went quickly, and everything returned to calm. The rusty door fell down with a bang, and the priest with a vicious face stepped out of the door, with bright red blood flowing from his fingertips.

"Hello~ How do you feel?" A young man wearing a black round-brimmed hat and with a sunny smile poked his head out.

"I've completely adapted to it. Even those Ge can't be my opponent." The priest clenched his fists, his smile was extremely twisted, and his eyes were full of madness. "I will make those guys who look down on me pay the price."

"Eh - congratulations, but why don't you just kill them?" The young man tilted his head, looking puzzled, "Why do you still spend time and effort on this game? Ah - I'm not judging your decision, it's just that those guys who used the mirrors escaped very quickly, and it's not easy to find them."

"They are emitting a special sound wave. I can distinguish it and track it," the priest sneered and walked away.

"Really? Then do your best——"

The young man blinked and waved at the priest's departing back.

"You are really boring," Medusa walked out from the side with her arms folded across her chest and glanced at the young man, "Gremlin."

“Haha——What are you talking about, Misa-chan? This is an important job.” Guremlin adjusted the round-brimmed hat on his head. “But, I didn’t expect that even Gurongi’s body couldn’t withstand that power. It’s just a ring. Is there really a way to make Him descend completely? Or did we pick the wrong target? This guy has a body with potential, but he doesn’t have the courage to use it.”

"Gremulan, are you questioning the sage's plan?" Medusa frowned.

"How could it be——" Gulemlin opened his hands and smiled innocently, "I am...very much looking forward to it~"

Medusa turned her face away uncomfortably and stopped looking at Guremlin.

Guremlin was always like this, smiling and looking out of place, but as long as Guremlin stood behind her, she would feel a chill down her spine. She always suspected that Guremlin was not truly submitting to the sage of the phantom demons. She had mentioned this to the sage many times, but the sage always told her not to worry and that she could trust Guremlin.

Everything the sage said was the truth, so she would naturally not go against his will. But if she really discovered that Guremlin intended to betray the sage, she would get rid of him without hesitation.

"Ah - come to think of it, shouldn't we go check on Xiao Meidai? She bought us very precious time to prevent that scary guy from coming here," Guremlin put his hands behind his head and shook it gently from side to side, "If we just abandon her like this, it would be too heartless."

"You don't need to worry about the Snow Girl. Everything is going as planned. We just need to..."

Meidu took out the black box from behind, his eyes shining with admiration and fanaticism.

"Follow the will of the wise."

Guremlin narrowed his eyes slightly, turned around and jumped out thoughtfully.

Chapter 183 Why aren’t you dead?

Because of many failed attempts, Servius Turia decided to change the battle plan. Red, who had been running around for several days and destroying many dens, got a rare rest time, but he was unlucky.

During this period, Servier Turia obtained a lot of usage data of the acceleration mode, which can be used for further research on Faiz. However, Qiao is the only one in Servier Turia who can use Faiz, so all debugging of Faiz must be coordinated by Qiao on site.

Metzl also locked himself in the room, not knowing what he was researching. Occasionally, he could hear some strange words like "So this is possible." Red's instinct told him that it would be best not to disturb him.

After going back and forth, Red finally rode his motorized Pegasus aimlessly on the road alone. The whistling wind in his ears seemed to take away all his worries, and he felt the long-lost peace.

Unfortunately, this tranquility did not last long.

Mari Sonoda, who was cutting a customer's hair with a pair of scissors and a ponytail, opened her mouth wide. Red, who was holding the door of the barber shop, was also shocked by such a coincidence.

"Is this the safe place you mentioned?"

Although he was startled, Red quickly accepted this fateful encounter, sat in the waiting area, looked at Sonoda Mari's back, and held up his chin.

"No way—"

Mari Sonoda stuck out her tongue at Reid, turned around and prepared to continue cutting the customer's hair, but after gesturing for a long time she still didn't start cutting.

"Um--can you please stop staring at me!"

In the end, Mari Sonoda couldn't help but turned her head with a blushing face to look at Reid who was staring at her from behind.

"why?"

“This is affecting my work!”

"Really?" Red shrugged. "Sorry, I'm just a little surprised. I thought you were lying when you said your dream was to be a barber."

"Humph--"

Mari Sonoda shook her hair somewhat arrogantly and ignored Reed. She turned her head and concentrated on cutting the customer's hair, no longer affected by Reed's gaze. She even put in her full effort as if she was competing with him.

The customer, who had been considering buying a hat to wear for a while, breathed a sigh of relief. Sonoda Mari's craftsmanship was much better than that of an ordinary intern. The customer nodded to Reid with gratitude, paid the money and left.

"What? I was the one who cut his hair," Sonoda Mari protested with some dissatisfaction, with her hands on her hips.

"Haha, that's true—"

"Tsk—ok, it's your turn."

Sonoda Mari made an unpleasant sound, turned her chair towards Reid and patted the back of the chair hard.

"Uh - I suddenly don't really want to cut my hair -"

Red took a step back.

He admitted that Mari Sonoda's skills were worthy of her dream of becoming a hairdresser, but when it came to cutting hair, the guy who just did it was indeed pretty good, but every haircut was a gamble.

Seeing that Red didn't trust her skills, Mari Sonoda frowned and pointed the shining scissors directly at Red's eyes.

"You are disrespecting my dream!"

"Um...Mari-chan? Don't point scissors at people's eyes," a woman who looked somewhat elderly raised her hand helplessly.

"Ah - I'm sorry, manager, he is my friend!" Sonoda Mari immediately clasped her hands together and apologized to the woman, and it seemed that she respected the manager of the barber shop very much.

"You can't do this even if you're friends," the store manager complained and waved to Red, "Young man, let me help you cut your hair."

"Oh—that's troublesome!"

Red's performance without even a moment's hesitation deeply hurt Mari Sonoda's self-esteem, but Mari Sonoda, who didn't want to cause trouble for the store manager, could only glare at Red angrily. Other customers who wanted to ask Mari Sonoda to help cut their hair hesitated.

Everyone has more or less experienced a haircut failure, and once a haircut failure occurs, it will take more than a day or two to recover from it.

It was obvious that Sonoda Mari was not focused on getting her hair cut now. Going up to her at this time would only add to the painful memories, so they all held their breath tacitly and pretended nothing happened.

"Young man, do you want a shorter cut or a trim?" the store manager fiddled with Red's hair gently.

"Ahem - just fix it," Red coughed lightly and looked embarrassed, "or else, let the truth come."

The store manager was not surprised at all. He just smiled understandingly and handed the scissors to Mari Sonoda who was looking stunned.

“Hmph! Hmph!”

Mari Sonoda took the scissors and stood behind Red eagerly. After lifting her hair vigorously, she pretended to be indifferent and commented on Red's hair.

"Your hair looks fine, just give it a little trim."

"Oh oh - I'll leave it to you then."

Red relaxed, holding up his finger playfully and waving it left and right.

"Don't worry, I can go buy a hat, just relax--"

The corner of Sonoda Mari's mouth twitched fiercely, she puffed up her face, and without saying a word, she concentrated on trimming Reid's hair with the comb in her left hand and the scissors in her right hand.

Inside the not-so-big barber shop, contemporary music echoed along with the clicking sound of scissors, and everyone was enjoying this tranquility that was out of touch with the times.

But this does not include Kusagaya outside the barber shop.

Masato Kusaka couldn't understand why Red was here? Why could Red get along with Sonoda Mari so naturally?

There are many questions that Kusaga Masato needs to think about, but at this moment his heart is filled with only dark emotions.

He wanted to put on the belt immediately and rush in to kill Red.

But his reason eventually suppressed this dark emotion.

According to his plan, Red should have encountered several attacks from Orphinoth by now, and realized that Orphinoth had set his sights on him. In this case, even if Red met Mari Sonoda, he would avoid her as much as possible to prevent Mari Sonoda from being discovered by Orphinoth and others.

Did something go wrong in the middle?

Just when Masato Kusaka was puzzled, the cell phone in his hand rang, and the caller's note was Mihara.

Masato Kusaga narrowed his eyes, looked at Reid unwillingly through the window, then slipped into the alley with his cell phone in his hand and answered the call.

"Hey, it's me."

"Yato, I'm already at the location, why is there no one to pick me up?" a young man's voice with a slight tremor came through the phone.

Kusaga Masato's brows furrowed immediately, "Are you sure you've reached your location?"

"I've already arrived!"

Then why are you still able to call?

"I understand. Wait a minute, let me confirm it," Kusaga Masato replied after a moment of silence.

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Soka Masato hung up the phone and took out another cell phone.

"It's me, where are you now?"

"Masato! I'm right where you said! I also saw the man you mentioned, and he looked very scared."

These Kusagaya people frowned even more tightly.

"Do you still have the phone I gave you? Is it turned on?"

"I've always brought it with me. Speaking of which, what exactly do you want to do, Yaren? Ah - it's not that I don't want to help, I just don't understand."

Masato Kusaka turned his eyes away and said, "Ah, don't worry about it. He is a friend I grew up with. We agreed to meet, but he couldn't come because of something. My friend has some social anxiety, and I am a little worried about him, so I can only ask you for help."

"Really? Really? Just leave it to me! I will definitely follow your friend closely!"

"Then please."

Masato Kusaga hung up the phone with a frown on his face.

The Intelligent Brain Group was monitoring and tracking their previous equipment, so they were able to intercept Mari Sonoda.

In order to ensure that Zhinao Group would not suspect that this was a trap, he said he had disposed of Sonoda Mari's mobile phone, but in fact he kept it and maintained normal use.

And now his "good friend" is following Mihara closely with Sonoda Mari's previous cell phone. The Zhinao Group does not know that Sonoda Mari and Reid have separated, so in the eyes of the Zhinao Group, Reid is frequently contacting members of Meteor Academy in order to seek the third belt.

The third belt must be in the hands of the remaining Meteor Academy members. With such a high frequency of contact, even the process of elimination will be able to get the third belt. The Intelligent Brain Group will definitely be anxious.

But during this period, the Intelligent Brain Group did not send Orphieno to attack Reid, and now Sanyuan is alive and well.

What is Zhinao Group doing?

Kusaga Masato was confused.

Chapter 184: Seeing how good their relationship is, I want to bite them to pieces

"how do you feel!"

Mari Sonoda put her hands on her hips and raised her head confidently.

Red held his chin up and turned left and right in front of the mirror. "Oh - much better than I expected. If you keep working hard, you will definitely become an amazing barber."

Mari Sonoda didn't expect Red to praise her so directly. She felt a little embarrassed. Her face turned slightly red. She crossed her arms and muttered softly, "Even if you didn't say that, I would become a great barber."

“This is really something to look forward to.”

Red smiled, stood up, took out his phone and was about to pay when Sonoda Mari raised her hand and pressed it down, "This time, let's consider it as my treat. That is, I have received a lot of care from you before, is it okay, manager? You can deduct it from my salary."

After saying that, Mari Sonoda turned to the store manager, clasped her hands together, and smiled somewhat awkwardly.

If the store manager said no at this time, she would be so embarrassed that she wanted to vomit blood.

The store manager waved his hand helplessly, and Sonoda Mari finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and patted her chest in a pretentious manner towards Red. In response, Red just rubbed his hair on his forehead and complained with a smile.
