98. Patch

Before leaving, Ash took a few more looks, and the torture center was built entirely in a magma pool.

It is estimated that the prisoner was caught here, and he began to tremble when he saw the environment.

Although magma has appeared here, it is not concentrated enough, and according to Celebrimbo, the One Ring must be at the heart of the volcano to be created.

Secretly note down this location, and just keep going deeper, following the direction of the magma flow, and you can reach the core of the volcano.

In fact, the Volcano Mansion is not much to visit, and there are reddish-brown rocks everywhere, or golden-red magma.

It is estimated that Raya also understood, and returned to the official residence with ashes after a while.

Originally, Raya was going to chat with Ash, but she was called away by Tanis, and it seemed that there was something urgent.

In this spare time, Ash was ready to find Bernal to continue to inquire about the volcano.

Unexpectedly, the door was pushed open, and a bald head sneaked in, it was Patch.

"How did you get in?"

"Lord Ash, long time no see."

"It's been a long time, the last time I saw you, it was in Red Lion City."

"By the way, when did you leave, you slipped away quite fast."

Patch smiled flatteringly, "Hehe, you know, my lord, the little commander picked up the leak, at that time, General Shattered Star was obviously too strong, if he didn't flee quickly, would he wait to be hammered." ”

"It makes sense, it seems that this is your way of survival, you should pretend to be cowardly, save your life, and don't be ashamed."

"Hehe, adults still understand me."

"Then what is the matter with you coming over this time?"

Patch's eyes rolled as he said, "My lord, I'm on a thief ship." ”

"Thief ship?"

Patchy nodded repeatedly, and then began to complain.

"At first, I heard that the Volcano Mansion was recruiting people, and I was in charge of food and housing."

"This condition is also too good, you know, the faded people in the junction are not good, there is no upper and lower meal."

"As soon as I heard this condition, I quickly agreed."

"When the results came, I found out that every month is to be assessed, at least to help the Volcano Mansion complete one task."

Speaking of the task, Ash became interested, and he very much wanted to know what the task was.

"What task makes you so embarrassed, let's hear it."

Patch sat down directly on the floor and began to talk about the organization's mission.

"The Volcano Mansion has mastered a method of invasion that can gain great power by assassinating other Faders."

As soon as Patch spoke, Ash frowned, isn't this a bloody finger?

It is very similar to the model of the Blood Dynasty, which is to kill people in exchange for power.

"Go on!"

"So, the people who join the Volcano Mansion have to help the Volcano kill a faded person every month."

Ash sneered, "Raiding homes and robbing houses, killing people and stealing goods, isn't this your old job?" ”

"What do you have to be embarrassed about?"

Patch is not angry at Ash's sneering, after all, Ash is telling the truth.

"But this time it's different!"

"How is it different?"

What is the task that bothers Patch, the great villain, so much, and Ash is very curious.

"Yes...... It's Big Horn, and the goal of this mission is Big Horn! ”

"Big Horn? Who is Big Horn? ”

This is a name that Ash has never heard of.

"Bighorn, the Bighorn Thelagus, who is zealous to help all the faders."

The name Ash of Thelagus has an impression that Roger once mentioned that he was a legendary fader who was very enthusiastic and helped countless other faders through their troubles.

At that time, Ash was still complaining, isn't this a good brother of the Sun Knight?

It turns out that Patch is targeting him this time, so it's no wonder that he can't do it.

"Did Bighorn Thegras help you?" Ash asked directly.

Patch shrugged his head, "That's right, Bighorn helped me before, so ......"

Ash patted him on the shoulder, and although Patch was evil, he still had a bottom line.

"People can't, at least shouldn't ......"

"Since you are so hesitant, it means that your conscience is still there, no wonder Bernal would say that this is a choice of conscience."

The ash pulled Pachi up, "Since you don't want to do it, then you can leave, can the Volcano Mansion still hunt you down?" ”

"Well, they're going to hunt down traitors, and even target me as a test for the next fader."

"That's it......" Ash touched his chin, "Otherwise, these two days, you follow me first, and when we leave, we will be together, and after returning to the Magic Academy, we should be safe." ”

It's not the ashes blowing, the current magic academy is even safer than the royal city, the Valkyrie is in charge, and there are the Knights of the Holy Tree and the Knights of the Rot, if Michaela wakes up again, it will be an assassin's nightmare.

For now, this is the only way to go.

In fact, Ash has an idea, for this kind of organization that kills people to gain strength, it shouldn't exist, and it seems that Yura needs to be contacted and let him go.

After receiving the assurances of Ash, Patch was also relieved.

"Oh yes, what's that Holus?" Ash suddenly remembered and asked Patch. "How did he join the volcano?"

"He's a joke now!"

"Joke, how do you say it?"

"His maid has been killed, and the murderer is the trialist of the Volcano Mansion!"

"That'...... Does he know about it? ”

"Yes, of course I know, otherwise everyone wouldn't laugh at him."

"Obviously, his maid was killed, but he actually joined the enemy's organization, and even comforted himself, this is the only way for a hero."

"You say, it's not funny!"

"This ......"

Ash really has nothing to say, and Horlaw's approach is indeed a bit ...... Cowardly.

"Okay, I know, when my business is done, I'll take you away."

Patch thanked him again and exited the room.

Ash lay down on the bed, ready to rest for a while, and then move later in the evening.

At midnight

It was unusually quiet, except for the burning of candles.

Ash equipped two undead slashes, cast a mute spell on himself, and slowly pushed the door open.

The hallway was even darker, as if everything was shrouded in darkness.

Skimming slightly, the ashes groped into the courtyard, observed that there was no one around, and then jumped over the courtyard wall.

After leaving the Volcano Mansion, Ash began to move in the direction of the torture center located in the magma pool, relying on his daytime memories.

It seems that due to the abandonment, the road to the torture center is not guarded by soldiers.

When the ash came to this magma pool, the temperature was not much lower than during the day.

The black torture center was like a ferocious beast, poking its head out of the magma, exuding an ominous aura.

Daya took him to this place and stopped.
