Chapter 372 It was you who brought the devils into the village? !
"Patch? And... Diaros." I looked at the two people who appeared from behind the nearby rocks in surprise, and hurried over to ask, "You are still here?! Where is Laya?"
But what was unexpected was that when Diaros saw me, his face immediately changed. He took out his whip and whipped my heels, shouting: "Don't, don't come over! Who are you?!"
"Ah?" I couldn't help but stop.
And Patch was extremely confused and said, "Hey, hey, hey, man, can't you see? Isn't this guy Zero? He is our old friend."
Diaros still stared at me intently, shook his head and said, "No, no, I saw with my own eyes that you took Laya to a deep lava place, and killed the owner of the mansion there, that, that Lady Tanis!"
"What?!" Patch and I said in unison.
Patch couldn't help but look at me in surprise. After all, judging from Alexander's previous words, Patch should have only arrived at the Volcano Residence in the past two days, and obviously didn't know the reason for everything that happened.
I hurriedly continued to ask: "When did this happen?"
Diaros just stared at me, but said nothing.
——He seemed to have identified me as the culprit who caused the fire in the Volcano Residence, and he did not dare to relax at all.
All I could say was, "Toret and I both arrived here today, intending to look for Laya. Millicent and Alexander are also on their way here, and they can testify for me... The person you met is probably a fire maniac who looks similar to me."
"...Is that so?" Diaros said this, but he still didn't put down his whip. "But has anyone else seen it? Maybe you haven't seen such a person yourself?"
"Ok?"
"Look similar? Isn't that just your one-sided statement... But Laya brought you to this mansion in person, and you destroyed it with your own hands... Obviously, that girl trusted you so much." Diaros seemed to insist that what he saw was the truth.
But my mind is still confused.
——Laya personally brought me to the Volcano Residence? She recruited the Fire Madman?!
——I should have mentioned it to her several times, that there is a crazy person who uses my appearance to cause trouble everywhere, how could this girl let a wolf into the house!
Taking a deep breath and calming myself, I responded to Diaros' question, "I have seen it. When Lienia was fighting against the Cuckoo Army, I sneaked into the academy and contacted them that night. The Cuckoo Army mistook me for the Mad Fire Man, which made the plan go so smoothly. And I did see it with my own eyes. The Mad Fire Man looked exactly like me... I should have said it before, but the Mad Fire Man's eyes are different from mine. His are turbid yellow and red, while mine are still the gray-black color that has faded without the blessing of gold."
Diaros stared at me for a moment, then suddenly collapsed to his knees, pounding the ground. “Damn it, what the hell is going on!”
But now is not the time to sort out the cause and effect, I hurriedly asked: "I know you are confused now, Diaros, but are you sure that Laya was taken to the magma place?"
"······Well, just this morning, I saw you with my own eyes·····No, it was that man who took Miss Laya into a strange room. I followed them out of curiosity and saw a lot·····"
"Okay, got it. I have to go save Laya."
Diaros only said that Tanis was murdered.
——Although I don’t know the other party’s purpose, maybe Laya is okay.
——In addition, the place of magma that Diaros mentioned must be where the "Big Snake" Lacard is... Could it be that the guy has already dealt with Lacard?
——As for the strange rooms, there are quite a few in the Volcano Mansion, but there is only one way to meet the Great Snake.
I found the Fire Dragon Emblem Amulet in my backpack and put it into the amulet leather bag. This way, it can reduce the damage caused by the burning fire to a certain extent.
Glancing at Patch, I suddenly remembered that there was one person missing: "By the way, Patch, didn't Ishutopia senior come with you? Where is he?"
"After the old man and I rescued Diaros, he was worried that there were other people in the mansion, so he went back in."
"Okay, I'll leave Diaros to you." There was nothing more to say, and I looked inside the residence.
The Crazy Volcano Demon and the Falling Star Beast were still fighting. The two guys were about to tear down the mansion. The flaming bricks and raging fire that fell on them were like raindrops, and there was no reaction.
This is just right. The two monsters only have eyes for each other and won't bother me.
Taking a deep breath, I activated my magic.
Combat skill - hound step.
I rushed into the burning house as fast as I could, and carefully bypassed the two monsters. I saw that the door on the right side of the front hall was open, which was opposite to where Patch was squatting in the game. Walking from this side, I could get to the Lava Town hidden behind the Volcano Mansion faster.
I didn't hesitate and just walked in.
The fire in the official residence seemed to be burning from top to bottom, so the lower side was basically not burned by the fire.
After passing through the long staircase, in the dark room, heart-wrenching roars were immediately heard: "Ahhhh——"
Patapapapapap——
There was the sound of hands slapping the ground rapidly, and the iron chains and wooden shackles were quickly coming towards me.
They were the Sons of Platinum who had been tortured in the Volcano Mansion. They were wearing black prisoner hoods and were rushing forward desperately like hyenas encountering their prey.
I took a step back and stood still. The molten flame ignited, lighting up the entire dark room.
Just as those Sons of Platinum pounced forward, a hurricane rolled up from underneath and engulfed all the guys in raging fire.
Combat skill - Molten Hurricane Dance.
I quickly cleared the area and walked through the prison filled with iron cages.
“······Ah······Ah.” In the room at the end, there was a guy huddled in a dark corner, calling out weakly in a low voice.
He should have the curse of the hotbed on him, which is the key item of the dung eater branch quest.
But now was not the time to be collecting items carelessly, so I simply passed the poor man and ran up to the terrace on this side.
Boom boom boom——
The fire was burning fiercely on the outer wall of the Volcano Residence.
But the town inside is almost the same as in the game. After all, the town itself is almost immersed in boiling molten lava and is used as a place of execution to punish criminals.
Oh!
The iron bridge leading to Aigle Church had actually been opened.
I'm so lucky. This way I can go directly to the other side without having to go around the lava town.
Jingle Bell.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of iron chains. When I turned around, I saw a beheading blade flying towards me. I was so scared that I quickly rolled to the ground to avoid the attack.
——Oh my god! It’s a doll that kidnapped a girl!
——This guy actually hid in the corner behind the door without saying a word, and launched a sneak attack without any moral principles!
I was too lazy to argue with this machine, so I jumped down from the terrace and landed on the mountain path made of lava and black stone. Then I ran to the bridge and headed straight for the Aigle Church on the opposite bank.
Soon there was a loud bang from behind.
I saw that the puppet that kidnapped the girl was chasing me and also jumped down from the terrace, but it fell to the ground and was spinning around like a pointer. It accidentally fell from the mountain path into the lava below.
——······Don’t jump around if you don’t have knees.
I turned back speechlessly and continued on my way.
When I broke into the gate of Aigle Church, I found that the noble of divine skin was not waiting for the challenger inside, but there was a familiar figure.
"Oh, isn't this Brother Zero?! You're here too?" Ishutopia was overjoyed. He was lifting a woman dressed as a finger witch from the ground and preparing to take her out. "Come over and give me a hand. This girl seems to be unconscious here. We need to take her out quickly."
I looked around vigilantly for a long time, but there was indeed no sign of the fat god in the game.
"Senior Ishutopia, I'm sorry, I have to go find Laya, she's still in the official residence." I trotted forward and explained.
Wait, the face of this finger witch... The bright red and ripe appearance shows that she was indeed burned, and there is also a horrifying scar on her face. She looks a little familiar.
She suddenly smiled, pulled out a dagger from her sleeve, and stabbed it into Ishutopia's chest. Her golden eyes were like a bayonet, staring at me: "Ahahaha~ Finally, we meet again~ I've been waiting for you for a long, long time, Master Zero~"
