Chapter 694: The State of the Forest
"Shut up and be honest with my questions."
"Mmmmmmmm
Ronald said another word and controlled Orrank.
He could see that there was something hidden in this man's distorted expression, and he must have had a lot of stories on him.
It's just that Ronald doesn't have the idea of chatting slowly with Orranke right now.
Taking control of the other party and reactivating the [Lie Detector] spell, Ronald spoke again and asked:
"Tell me, where is your mother?"
“……”
"Ah...... Not...... I ......"
Faced with this question, Orrank's body twitched violently.
Although still under the control of the spell, he showed a strong resistance reaction almost instinctively, and his answers were slurred.
- A surprising situation.
Completely under the control of the spell, but with such a reaction.
This makes a lot of sense on the logical level of a spell.
"Sir, I'll take care of it."
Costadt stepped forward at this point, and with a flat expression, he reached out and pressed Orrank's head to the ground, and the right amount of magic immediately appeared.
I just keep this posture.
Although Orrank, whose face was close to the ground, was still twitching, he was able to speak normally:
"That's it...... Right at your feet. ”
Hearing this, Ronald almost immediately extended the reconnaissance of the power of 'rage' downward. However, the feedback from the spell - there are at least no humans underground.
Ronald furrowed his eyebrows.
The most straightforward option now is, of course, to continue to inquire about the way to go underground.
But for some reason, he recalled some details of his previous experience, so he asked Orranke more:
"Do you know anything about the explosion just now?"
Orranke really replied:
"Yes...... It's the ...... of the Rhine Executor, mother notified in advance...... I, be careful, but ...... The explosion was too strong...... Finish. ”
“……”
Ronald almost subconsciously looked at Kostadt.
There is no doubt that this so-called Rhine must be an organization that is related to the original scriptures.
When the maid first tried to recycle the Organic Canon.
Everything should still be in its infancy, but only a few months have passed, and there are now more than just the forces that originally existed here, and the ever-growing mutant lifeforms.
Even these organizations that revolve around the original texts appear one by one.
Then a very dangerous battle begins.
"Alas......"
Sighing, a feeling of helpless exhaustion welled up in Ronald's heart.
"How do you get in touch with your mother, how do you get underground?"
Smack-
Orranke twitched again.
Only this time he was pressed to the ground by Kostadt, so he could only be controlled by the maid again like a fish out of the sea.
Then Orranke spoke again:
"Three entrances...... The first ...... Forest North...... Second...... Don's Residential ...... Three is in ...... My office building...... Below. ”
That's enough.
Ronald did not go further and asked for anything else, and directly instructed Kostadt:
"Alright, let him go."
"Yes, sir." Kostat immediately obeyed the order and let go, and Orranke continued to scout violently. At this time, the man's face turned green, and he was obviously in an abnormal state.
That's when Costa explained it appropriately:
"There are signs of biomodification in this man's body, but as he revealed the information, the organs that could have strengthened the physique began to produce a toxin, a very unique method of secrecy."
“……”
Ronald's expression was a little subtle.
This method is quite biologically modified.
Compare it with the current situation in the Joiz Forest, which is a fitting complement.
"Let's go, let's move on."
With a simple sigh in his heart, Ronald walked with his two companions to the ruins of the office building. Because Orranke came out here before, it saved them the effort of digging a hole.
Behind them, the voices of other spellcasters gradually came.
"Mr. Orrank?"
"He just said that he knew about the explosion in advance?"
"The explosion was carried out by the executors of the Rhine!"
"But the chief knows it, but he won't tell us!"
"A thing that secretly takes refuge in those plants, you still dare to believe him, and call him the leader?"
"Hehe, I don't believe it anyway."
“……”
Ronald, who was going underground, didn't look back when he heard this.
Originally, if Orranke had been treated by these spell casters, he might have been able to save his life.
After all, these people from various schools of thought have a lot of tricks.
It's not unusual for working together to save his life.
Just listen to this situation.
Orranke probably won't be able to enjoy such treatment.
For a guy who has taken refuge in a life other than humans, and even his mentality has changed, this kind of fate is also deserved.
With Hull and Kostadt.
Ronald walked down a remnant staircase into the ground.
This place is quite well preserved under the previous explosion, and there is not even any loss of furniture, so you can see at a glance that the owner has made a response plan before.
The only problem.
It's just a simple basement where there is no way to continue down.
“……”
In silence, Ronald's vision swept around.
As he was accustomed to, he began to deduce where this basement was most likely to hide the downward passage.
Behind the hanging paintings on the wall?
Under the carpet in the center of the room?
Or is that eye-catching bookshelf plastered on the wall actually a trap with a secret door?
Just as Ronald thought quickly.
Kostadt, who was following him, spoke again in a flat tone:
"Sir, the location has been locked, I'm here to open the way."
Then I saw the maid's right leg retreated, and her left knee bent to support her body. Blessed with the power of her furious and tough magic, she slammed it into the ground beneath her feet.
Rumble!
In an enclosed environment like a basement.
The sudden roar almost made people's scalps tingle.
But at the same time, Kostadt also carved out the road, as she said.
A blow enhanced by a specific spell.
And did not smash cracks in the ground like a normal blow.
The force that perfectly constricts within a range 'pokes' a straight and clean passage directly.
At this moment, Kostadt looked at the path he had opened up, and nodded calmly:
"Sir, the distance below is a bit deep, I'll walk ahead and explore the way."
Almost as soon as he spoke, Kostat took the initiative to leap into the pitch-black direct passage.
“……”
Ronald walked over and took a look.
Eventually, he turned his head and picked up Hull, who clearly didn't have the ability to fall vertically.
Then he jumped down as well.
