Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 547 Three Fingerprints
Whenever the dungeon is closed, it is the peak time for adventurers to communicate with each other.

Whether it is a specialized intelligence dealer who comes to question the adventurers or the adventurers' verbal communication during rest, more or less intelligence will be revealed.

After all, not everyone is willing to take what they know to the Golden Lion Chamber of Commerce in exchange for rewards. Some people look down on those rewards, while others feel that they can get more benefits by holding the information in their own hands.

"Brother, where have you explored so far? Do you want to have a chat?"

"Okay, I'll tell you, I found a checkpoint full of soldiers. There must be good stuff there, so there are so many people guarding it. Hey, if you can offer a good price, I'll tell you the way to get there."

"What the hell are you dreaming of? You can get to that crappy place by following the instructions of the blessing. You want to sell a place that even a fool can find? Eat shit!"

"Is there anyone who didn't beat the White Mask away? Can anyone tell me what he said? I accidentally chopped him twice and now I don't know anything."

"You mean you just slashed twice and beat away the White Mask who would have to be seriously injured before fighting with you?"

Where there are adventurers, it's noisy and chaotic, but it's also full of a different kind of energy.

It is worth noting that the number of non-human adventurers in the Warrior Kingdom is significantly greater than that in the Kingdom of Yanor. Throwing a stone into a crowd and hitting an orc, dwarf or even murloc is less likely to be than hitting a human.

The reason why the Warrior Kingdom can attract so many different races is probably because they have had dragon knights who intermarry with dragons since ancient times, so the atmosphere in this regard is more open, right?

Anyway, Gong Qiying felt that he had no way of attacking the fishman whose upper body was a fish and whose lower body was a human.

But while he was drinking, several people had already approached Miss Mermaid to chat with her.

Gong Qiying stood in awe.

It is also fun to listen to adventurers share the little information they know, such as where the farthest place the adventurers have reached, where adventurers like to gather, and which small area adventurers stay the longest. All kinds of data are kept by Gong Qiying and updated in real time every day, so he knows exactly what kind of information the adventurers will share.

Sometimes listening to people discussing information that was actually useless with a serious look on their faces made him want to have another drink.

However, some of the information exchanged by adventurers was not about the Sen Dungeon.

"Ms. Yufei, the guild has an urgent commission that they would like to assign to you. Do you have time?"

When this voice reached his ears, Gong Qiying turned his head and looked at Youfei.

Of course, his body had been specially strengthened through the dungeon, so he could hear the conversation over there even from such a long distance, not to mention that Yufei and the others had no intention of hiding anything.

"What commission? We just came back and are very tired," Youfei scratched his messy hair, and it was obvious that he was indeed tired.

"It's a commission regarding the recent attack by unknown monsters. The guild has determined it to be a dangerous incident, so only experts can take it." said the staff member.

Fann had some impression of this commission and thought: "It seems that similar incidents have become more and more frequent recently. Could it be that the guild has sent people to investigate, but they encountered danger and came back to us for help?"

The staff member looked around, nodded, and said in a low voice: "The murderer may not be a monster, but a demon."

"A demon who likes to use a branding iron to leave marks similar to three fingerprints on others!"

Yu Fei and the others didn't react to this, but Gong Qiying, who was listening silently, showed a strange expression.

Three finger marks? Why does it sound like the three fingers of insanity?

But those who have seen the Mad Fire in the dungeon should be gone now, specifically Ganago and Eliphis.

"Then there's nothing we can do. If it's the demon clan, we need to investigate it thoroughly." Yufei put away the reluctance on her face, stood up and followed the staff to the guild. Vann and Isa also went with them. Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Tepi went to deal with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce.

And Gong Qiying will naturally follow him, but not in his current appearance.

A moment later, in the small meeting room on the upper floor of the Adventurer's Guild.

The local Adventurer's Guild branch president was talking to Yuffie and his group.

"There is something you may not have heard of yet, but it has spread among the managers of various cities."

The branch president, who looked like a smart and capable woman with a bit of snake scales on her skin, said:
"Shortly after you set out for Red, traces of strange demons appeared in the imperial capital and a number of surrounding cities including Black Stone City and Duel City."

It was the first time for Vann and Isa to come across information that was so closely related to the demons. Before this, Red was so remote that even the demons existed only in legends, so they couldn't help but feel excited at this moment.

Yufei was keenly aware of something and said:

"Could it be that the demon that escaped from the imperial capital earlier is seeking revenge?"

As everyone knows, there was once a young demon who appeared in the imperial capital and was looking for the location of the Light Eagle Corps. Later, when the guards of the Warrior Kingdom thought he was a spy and wanted to arrest him, he revealed his true identity as a demon and escaped. This incident was also the reason why people suspected that Eliphis was in collusion with the demons.

But few people know that the demon was never brought to justice and is still on the run. "We didn't take this matter seriously at first. It was just a demon. There are dozens or even hundreds of demon-related incidents in the country every year, but they don't cause any major harm."

The branch president showed a look of regret and placed a document in front of everyone.

There is a round, red ball painted on it.

It was the devil's egg!

"This is the item that was lost after the monster escaped. It is now kept in the royal vault in the imperial capital. Only the king and the magic sage have the right to visit it at any time."

"At first we knew nothing about it. It was not until King Ainz III of the Kingdom of Anor made public the dangers of the Fallen Demon Egg that we realized that this insignificant thing could actually cause serious harm by transforming humans into demons."

The branch president sighed. "At that time, the entire capital, no, the entire country, was in a trend of eating Happy Eggs to prove that they were not the owners of the Fallen Demon Egg. You should also know this."

“That made a profound impression.”

Yufei recalled that during that period, everyone she saw on the street was extremely happy because they had eaten too many Happy Eggs. They all laughed in a disgusting way like giant monkeys.

However, the national crime rate dropped rapidly during that period.

"The royal family is now paying attention to matters related to the demons, but it's too late. They can no longer find any trace of that guy."

"Yes," the branch president said, "So we think this incident is a breakthrough. Perhaps the demon is using the fallen demon eggs to transform humans in order to retaliate against us!"

"The investigation team we sent out earlier has confirmed that the perpetrators of the attack are demons, so we withdrew the commission. Other cities have given the commissions to gold-level adventurers, and you are the only person in Black Rock City who is suitable to investigate this matter. Please take action!"

"Now that you've said that, I have no reason not to agree." Yu Fei naturally did not refuse. "It's just right. I haven't fought against the demons for a long time. Let's test my current strength."

"Thank you very much," the branch president looked relieved. "Because His Highness Lanler is here, I really hope that this matter can be resolved as soon as possible, so that His Highness will not be attacked when traveling again."

Having said that, she was also wondering why Lanler didn't leave. The Sean Dungeon shouldn't allow this prince who loved to play around to live in Blackrock City.

Could it be that there is another hidden story?

At this moment, Yufei suddenly realized something, turned her head sharply to look at the window, and her fighting spirit suddenly rushed over.

"Who is there?"

There was a rustling sound of bushes outside the window. She walked over, opened the window and looked around, but there were no suspicious signs anywhere.

"There is no magic power left. It's not a monitoring familiar or something like that. Am I wrong?"

She looked around carefully again, but still found nothing, so she closed the window and continued to discuss what had just happened with the branch president.

A chubby creature emerged from the shadow of the bushes. It looked just like the thieving monster that was active in the underground cemetery of Casas - Gengar!

Gengar lurked in the shadows and shuttled all the way, finally coming in front of Gong Qiying and handing the sound stone in his hand to him.

"Thank you, you've worked hard~" Gong Qiying rubbed Gengar's body. The touch was quite wonderful and a bit addictive. Both the person who touched and the Pokémon being touched looked like they were enjoying it.

After putting Gengar back into the Poké Ball, he returned to the house he temporarily rented in the Warrior Kingdom and listened to the recording in the Voice Stone.

After listening, he showed a more interested expression.

"Interesting, I'd like to learn more about it."

Gong Qiying was rather lazy and didn't want to go along by himself.

So I decided to do something and get back a copy of Yufei and the others' investigation results.

It was a dark and windy night, perfect for the development of some horror movie-like plot.

At the same time, outside Blackrock City, in a hidden cave.

The entire crypt was covered with traces of burnt flames, and was still burning at this moment, but these were ordinary flames, without any magic or other special properties.

In the flames, an old man with a wretched face was crawling and wriggling in the darkness, muttering to himself:
"It's all crazy, it's all crazy, it's all crazy."

He went crazy by the end.

"Where on earth can I go to have a crazy fire!!!"
