Chapter 232: Acheron's suspicion peaks! Duke Inferno's corpse rises from the dead?
Little Gui's livestream.
After experiencing the pain.
Guinaifen stood up!
Although her eyes were slightly red, her gaze became firm and serious.
"Family, now is not the time to be sad!"
"Firefly's death is full of suspicious points…"
"It's absolutely not as simple as just being attacked by a monster!"
"There must be a mastermind behind Penacony!"
"I will investigate this case thoroughly!"
"TO AVENGE FIREFLY!!!"
…
"Good!"
"Little Gui is always so strong, I'm literally crying!"
"I WANT REVENGE!!!"
"That Something Unto Death… you'd better not show your health bar! Otherwise, I MUST KILL YOU TEN THOUSAND TIMES AND IT STILL WOULDN'T BE ENOUGH!!!"
"Brothers, prepare to show the health bar!"
"Why did the monster appear, stab Firefly, and run away immediately?"
"It's a murder weapon; there must be a mastermind behind the scenes!"
"Find out who it is! Stab him first!"
…
Little Gui and the players in the livestream room truly seemed to have turned their grief into strength!
Continue the story!
After comforting Stelle, Black Swan said: "I'm really sorry, I have to leave for a short while… Death is still wandering, I must personally go to confirm the safety of Ms. Himeko and Ms. March 7th, and give them a warning…"
"She is entrusted to you… Ms. Acheron."
Acheron nodded.
After Black Swan left.
Acheron spoke: "I am very sorry that this happened… I was too focused on that girl and neglected…"
"It was my hesitation that caused her to lose her life… I'm sorry."
At this moment, two options appeared.
[ This isn't your fault. ]
[ You didn't draw your blade… why? ]
Guinaifen paused.
As if choosing.
And the viewers in the livestream saw these options and immediately became indignant!
…
"Yeah! Acheron's strength is so high? Why didn't she draw her blade?"
"Why apologize?"
"That thing rushed in from behind the protagonist, and Acheron just watched."
"Acheron is acting!"
"Acheron's performance here is indeed a bit suspicious."
"I suspect Acheron is with Death. When she was with Misha, she might have done something to make Death appear in Misha's dream…"
"Holy crap, is there really something wrong with Acheron?"
…
But Guinaifen shook her head.
Expressing the opposite thought to the bullet screen—
"Although I know Acheron is indeed mysterious and powerful…"
"But even Stelle didn't have time to draw her lance."
"That monster… was clearly targeting Firefly!"
"I don't think there's any reason to question others at this time…"
However,
Little Gui's tone changed.
Her eyes seemed to shoot out a sharp light!
As if she had received instructions from the Reignbow Arbiter in an instant.
Clenching her fists, she said:
"Of course! If Death really has something to do with Acheron, then… she definitely won't get away!"
"Even if she is an Emanator, it's useless!"
"The Hunt's revenge will surely come!"
The bullet screen was immediately filled with cheers.
All kinds of agreements covered the screen.
There were also many people expressing their intention to join the camp to crusade against Acheron…
Little Gui continued the story.
Faced with the Trailblazer's questioning.
After a brief silence, Acheron replied: "I'm sorry, I… had no other choice."
"I understand your anger, and I am willing to accept it… but the time has not yet come. We should keep our eyes open, think about where the real enemy is hiding, and how to fight against them…"
"Don't let pain dictate your thoughts. Maintain yourself, and you can walk on the right path."
"Once, someone warned me the same thing… there is no need for mercy towards the enemy; that is cruelty to oneself. But you must recognize who the real enemy is…"
"And, you must understand the meaning and price of drawing that blade."
"This is the only advice a person burdened with heavy blood debts can give you."
…
"Heavy blood debts"
"It corresponds to the scene of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood in Eternal Dance…"
"The real enemy?"
"Isn't Death the real enemy?"
"Acheron means there is a mastermind behind this."
"I still feel like Acheron is acting!"
"It could also be a thief shouting 'stop thief'!"
…
At this moment.
Black Swan returned.
And brought a piece of news.
Himeko entrusted Black Swan to take Stelle to a safe location.
If there is capacity, they can investigate Firefly's matter first.
Meet later at the Clockie statue.
Before leaving, Acheron said: "Sorry, can you give me a few more minutes?"
"I… still have something unfinished."
Acheron turned and walked away.
Arrived at the place where Firefly turned into bubbles.
Stopped.
Pursed her lips.
Then lowered her eyes.
After a while, Acheron bent down, used her hand as if scooping something up, and stood up again.
"May death end your long dream…"
"Leading you back to… the waking world."
After doing all this.
Acheron sighed.
"Let's go."
[ Task Complete ]
[ New Task: Who killed...… ]
[ Obtained Item: Sleepless (Disc) ]
Seeing this reward item.
Many players couldn't hold back!
…
"Okay, okay, okay…"
"Sleepless"
"Are you for real?"
"You gave this at the end?"
"Still stabbing, still stabbing!"
"Do you know why it's a sleepless night? Because it's sleepless."
"Damn it."
"Feathered Spirit, you've done all the bad things!"
"Backstabbing."
"Sleepless? I WANT THE MURDERER TO ALSO BE SLEEPLESS!!!"
…
Little Gui took a deep breath.
At this moment.
The feeling of revenge reached its peak!
"We are going to the exit of the Memory Zone with Black Swan now."
"There should be some traces left by Firefly along the way!"
"Maybe we can find some clues!"
After Little Gui finished speaking.
Black Swan indeed discovered some anomalies!
"What's going on? There is suddenly a little… dry heat in the memory zone?"
Acheron confirmed: "You noticed it too. It's like something is burning…"
Continuing forward.
Arrived at a lobby similar to the hotel's VIP floor.
The corpses of monsters like the Dreamjolt Troupe were lying horizontally and vertically on the ground.
"Here… are charred remains everywhere?"
"There are still slight sparks left; the culprit is likely not far away."
"It seems we have to slow down for now…"
These on the ground can all be investigated.
Guinaifen went up to check one by one.
[ The surface cut of this monster's remains is narrow and deep, with obvious charred marks caused by intense burning around it. A few sparks are dancing within, like broken stars that have gone away. ]
[ (It seems this monster died from some kind of thermal weapon…) ]
[ This monster's remains were pierced by some kind of sharp weapon, and the tissue under its shell seemed to have evaporated explosively due to high heat in a short time. You cannot get any closer—the steam seeping out from the remains will undoubtedly burn you. ]
[ (It seems this monster died from some kind of high-heat reaction…) ]
Guinaifen felt that something was wrong the more she looked!
Frowned.
The BGM started to become oppressive.
[ There seems to be nothing unusual on the surface of this monster's remains. But when you touch it with your hand, the high heat from your fingertips makes you retreat as if you had received an electric shock. ]
[ There is no doubt that there is a ball of intensely burning fire inside the remains waiting to break out of the shell. For your own safety, you'd better stay away from it. ]
"Family, it seems… things aren't over yet!"
"This dream is really full of suprises!"
"Looking at this description…"
"Why do I feel like… it's Duke Inferno!?"
The bullet screen also boiled instantly!
…
"Holy crap! The Duke is back from the dead?"
"There are still masters?"
"It must be Little Gui's doing!"
"Duke Inferno is suspected of impersonating the boss!"
"The Duke… is finally going to make a move? [ Happy ]"
"Duke Inferno won the resurrection match?"
"I said Duke Inferno's death was a bit too hasty! How could a character who had a whole version of foreshadowing exit the plot so easily?"
"Here it comes, here it comes!"
"Could it be Sam?"
"I want to nominate someone here—Gallagher, he is also a fire attribute."
"According to you, it could also be Master Hook the Great."
