How did I become the Lord of Evil Gods?

Chapter 252 Karma Fire
"That's it."

The old knight released his grip on Yun Mu's wrist and looked around.

This is a dirt road on the edge of the town. Next to the two of them, there is a wooden sign with a line of small characters written on it. It seems that it should be in Gubei Continental.

"Jade...means jade, right? The name of this town is Jade Town?" Yun Mu could barely recognize the words on the wooden sign.

Although the modern Frost Kingdom language itself was improved from Northern Continental, the difference is as big as Chinese and Japanese, with only some parts being exactly the same.

In addition, Yun Mu's knowledge of the language of the Frost Kingdom is not very good. Being able to recognize the word "emerald" at the beginning is already the limit.

"Now, leave along this path. The affairs of this town have nothing to do with you." The old knight did not answer Yun Mu's question, but pointed to the dirt road in the distance.

"What about you?" Yun Mu looked at him curiously: "Do you plan to stay here and fight with the townspeople?"

".This is none of your business." The old man was silent for a moment and replied in a stiff tone.

"Explain it to me in detail." After patting the dust on the stones on the roadside, Yun Mu sat on it, hugged the knee of his right leg, and placed his chin on it: "Things about this town."

During this period, Yun Mu was also doing two things, and by the way, he collected the loot just after the battle.

After a while, he shook his head bitterly: "I don't know about your questions."

"Whenever the clock rings at ten o'clock at night, the residents of the town will reveal their true form as ghosts and then kill the living travelers."

"When I first came here, I had no memory. I couldn't remember anything except my name."

"The Ghost Festival is repeated every day, even if there is only a little bit of instinct left. Over such a long time span, anyone will be driven crazy."

Crazy to the extreme, on the surface, may be calm.

"Yeah." After listening to the old knight's words, Yun Mu lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "The town repeats the Ghost Festival every day, but the residents in the town don't notice it?"

"No, that's impossible." Yun Mu retorted without hesitation.

The value of the die of desire is 15, which is a pretty good number.

"It's the little knight who comes to take care of me every day, even if he forgets about me every morning."

"I have a question." She looked at the old knight: "Since all living people will be attacked, why are you okay?"

Yun Mu sighed helplessly in his heart, and then began to listen carefully to Tang Jikede's speech.

"The time has not come yet, and the residents of the town have not revealed their true identities. You should leave here quickly."

Coupled with the passive skill, the effect of pickpocketing is an additional 23% income.

"." Faced with Yun Mu's question, the old knight chose to remain silent.

"But as I stayed here longer, gradually, starting from the Little Knight, almost everyone regarded me as a member of the town."

Although it all seems normal, you must know that even lakes with extremely calm water often hide deadly undercurrents.

"It's normal that the residents of the town are ghosts and don't need to eat, but what about the outsiders?"

"Everyone in this town is a ghost, but they don't know it. I have seen many outsiders who came here. Their final end was either to become a part of the town or to be torn apart by those ghosts. into pieces."

"Wait." Yun Mu suddenly realized something.

Counting the gold coins that were taken out of the treasure box after the dungeon ended seven days ago, her current gold coin balance has reached 9114.

“Finally, if there’s a ghost festival happening every day, where do the supplies come from in the town?”

"You can't hold a banquet where all the food is an illusion."

Yun Mu suddenly felt a chill running down her spine because she suddenly thought of it.

"In fact, I don't even know who I am or when I started appearing in this town."

If the residents of the town go crazy from the repetitive life day after day, what about Tangji Kede who can retain all his memories?

How could she be sure that the residents of this town were not crazy?

"Haha." The old knight's face showed a slightly embarrassed look, and he chuckled: "Do you know the little knight?"

"Perhaps I was gradually assimilated by this town, or maybe the memories of the residents of the town were not completely erased?"

".Oh, okay." The old knight named Tangji Kede sat on the ground a little discouraged and began to tell her the story about him and this town called Emerald Town.

"Speaking of which," the old knight's face showed a look of reminiscence: "Actually, in the beginning, the residents of the town treated me as an outsider."

Presumably, with one more battle, the number of gold coins can exceed 10,000!
Well, although these gold coins may, probably, maybe, they are only enough to upgrade Lucy's level by three levels.
Alas, it’s hard to make money.

"But" after a pause, the old knight said resolutely: "The chivalry in my heart is guiding me. It makes me move forward and save those innocent people!"

Aren't his symptoms much more severe than those of ordinary townspeople?

"I have nothing but the name Tang Quixote."

"I don't know. I have to wait until I hear it before I decide on this issue."

"If the residents of this small town really retain some of their memories, they will never be as normal as they are now."

"Also, the residents of the town will forget what happened yesterday the next morning. Why can you still remember it?"

The total is 2276 gold coins.

"Don't you have no memory of the time before you came here?" Yun Mu looked at him with some confusion: "Without the memory of the past, where did you learn the spirit of chivalry?"

"Will you leave after listening?" the old knight asked.

Could it be that he has actually gone crazy a long time ago?
This thought had just appeared in her mind, and it pierced into her heart like a root, and then grew crazily.

Think about it carefully, what was Tang Jiked doing when she met him today?
Holding an iron sword, she exchanged blows with the town's guards. Before she arrived, the other party seemed to be killing people at will?
Damn it, why didn't she think of this earlier!
Is it because of preconceived notions that the other person is considered to be mentally ill with hysteria?

Or did she think that the people who were hacked to death were all NPCs, so she didn't pay special attention to them?
She should have thought of it earlier.

"puff!"

A bright red dagger pierced Yun Mu's heart from behind. Only then did she realize that the three question marks in the race column of the opponent's attribute panel were not for nothing.

Because he is not human at all!
Not only is the ability to sense blood undetectable, but it doesn't even have the aura that a living thing should have.

There was only one such void-like existence in her mind. That was Dunn, the faceless man who was a professional of the Church of Dark Night.

Completely eliminate one's own sense of existence and block all perception and breath
This guy is a real monster in human skin.

Hum, just pretend to be dead for a while. With a cold snort in his heart, Yun Mu simply closed his eyes and let his body fall to the ground.

When they were in the fog before, Tangjikod only took her away, but he didn't take Lucy, the Scarlet Knight, the Goblin Brave, and Xiao Qie with him.

At that time, out of caution, she deliberately used the active skill of the painting [Mechanical Heart] on herself.

After the mechanical heart is pierced, as long as the effect of the painting is removed, the heart will return to normal.

Even if she does not use the skill of mechanical heart, she will not die because of her special trait [blood core], and she will not even be unconscious for a few seconds.

After all, it was just her heart that was pierced by the sword, so the damage area was not large for her.

With the two characteristics of [High-speed Regeneration] and [Blood Core], he can recover quickly.

It was even said that as long as the blood core was not destroyed, she could recover even if her head fell off. Of course, she definitely didn't want to try it herself.

But then again, this seemed to be her first time being attacked in a non-turn-based game.

Could this be considered a drama? Oh, it hurts!
Yun Mu was dragged along the ground by the old knight, and his head collided with the rocks on the ground uncontrollably.

Although she is an extraordinary person. Forget it, hold back, let's see what this guy wants to do first.

With anger in his heart, Yun Mu clicked on the game panel with his mind.

At this time, her teammates are all resting, and she can summon them at any time if she wants.

"Everything is for justice, evil must be eliminated"

The old knight murmured to himself and pulled Yun Mu all the way into the town.

At this time, the fog had not dissipated, and almost no one could be seen beyond about three meters. The other party dragged her all the way, and no townspeople noticed.

Later, Yun Mu was pulled to a wooden shed in the town, which she guessed was where the other party lived.

When the two of them were chatting before, the old knight said that it was because of some reasons that he himself didn't know.

The items he carries with him can be brought to the next day intact, which is also the source of the armor and iron sword he wears.
Although she couldn't tell how true or false this statement was, she could take it as true for the time being.

So what did this guy want to do by dragging her here?
Just when Yun Mu was confused, the old knight threw her into the wooden shed and buried her with straw and other objects. Then he picked up a new long sword from the corner of the wooden shed and pulled her out of the wooden shed. He walked out of the shed.

Of course, Yun Mu couldn't just lie here like this. Naturally, he immediately stood up from the debris and followed the other person quietly.

Because of the heavy fog and the fact that she couldn't feel the other person's aura at all, it was a bit difficult for her to follow him. She could only vaguely see that he seemed to be arranging something.

After finally waiting for the old knight to leave, Yun Mu immediately came to his previous location.

A pungent smell of alcohol poured into the nose. In addition, there was also a smell of earth and hay. Just smelling it was particularly refreshing.

"This is."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Yun Mu was thoughtful.

However, she was about to lose track of her target, so she could only keep this in mind for the time being and hurry up to catch up.

As time went by, the old knight went to more and more places, and whenever the other party left, she would take a closer look.

Hay, alcohol, or animal fat, the old knight was very skillful in finding the most suitable substances for ignition nearby, and then put them together.

By now, Yun Mu had completely guessed what the other party was thinking.

He is going to set fire to it!

A fire that can ignite the entire world in the main and secondary paintings!

What is his purpose?
Burn all the townspeople to death?
why?
Is there any benefit to him?

Yun Mu couldn't think of a reason for him to do this for the time being. Maybe there was no reason at all. Just like what she said before, the old knight was crazy.

And people who are already crazy do not need a reason no matter what they do.

"This is the last location."

Tangjikede placed a large amount of hay in the best position after many experiments and calculations, and silently waited in his heart for the sound of the bell that he heard countless times.

Except for the stranger, everything was within his plan.

Attacking the guards caused riots, causing casualties and causing flaws in the guards' patrols. At the same time, because of the news that he was 'crazy', most townspeople would choose to gather together instead of acting alone.
Use the evening fog to escape, deal with the strangers who may bring changes, and then arrange multiple fire points.

Next, just wait for the most suitable time, ignite the entire town, and let everyone die in the sea of ​​​​fire. Such a degree of damage, even the 'world' cannot repair it.

Until then, he will be free!

Whether it's Emerald Town or that damn Spooky Festival, it's all over.

Even if it means returning to nothingness, this endless cycle, a prison with no peace. It's time for him to end it all!

"Boom-thump-thump-"

The ten o'clock bell rang on time. Tangjikede grinned and took out a box of matches from his pocket.

"Ah - the holy flame that cleanses away evil, burn this town together with all the evil in this world."

"This is punishment from the gods, but it is also salvation. When the fire of karma covering the sky is extinguished, everyone will return to peace."

Swish, swish, hoo!
Orange flames danced in his hands. Tangjixote threw it away, and the lit match fell into the dry grass pile.

However, before the flames could spread, Yun Mu took a step forward.

She poured her spirituality into her pen and quickly wrote the Chinese character "rain" on the card she carried with her.

At this time, the fog had just dissipated, and there was still a lot of moisture in the air.

Under the influence of the "rain" character, the water vapor in the nearby air gathered together and fell from the sky, extinguishing the newly ignited small fire in the blink of an eye.

"Sorry, I seem to have extinguished your holy flame by accident."

Yun Mu had a proud smile on his face, as if he was avenging himself for the sword that pierced his heart.

"Oh, or should I say, this is the karmic fire that cleanses away the filth?"

pat.

The feet wearing leather boots were gently raised, and Tang Jicord's heart was stepped into the soft soil.
