Chapter 434: Zhou Zhuo’s Whereabouts

However, it seemed that the damage caused by Fang Linyan was nothing to the earth puppet. It still wanted to fight back.

At this time, Fang Linyan swept his elbow at its head, making it turn 180 degrees backward, then he lifted it up violently.

At this instance, the 24 strength played a huge role. Fang Linyan exerted force with both arms and threw the earth puppet into the oven!!

The power of this throw was not too great, but the key was that the temperature in the oven was extremely high.

This earth puppet was actually driven by the ghost inside. After being thrown into it, the environment inside it was simply scorching hell for the ghost.

In just a few seconds, the entire earth puppet was completely burned red inside.

The ghost inside couldn’t stay still at all. It let out a shrill howl and wanted to escape, but just after floating half a meter away, it vanished into a wisp of green smoke.

Not only that, even the soil that formed the earth puppet was burned to ashes in just a few seconds.

Probably hearing the howling of the ghost, the other 2 earth puppets also rushed in.

Fang Linyan snapped his fingers, Rubes pounced and bit!

A peculiar purple light could be seen on its sharp steel fangs, biting off half a hand of an earth puppet!

Not only that, but the ghost inside also uttered a shrill scream. Unexpectedly, even the soul inside was injured.

Fang Linyan was surprised by this. Suddenly, he remembered that when he read the attribute data of Rubes, it was mentioned that its fang had the strange power from the five-faced monster, so it could ignore the defense.

Could it be this power that allows it to directly hurt the ghost inside?

Now that Rubes could handle 1 earth puppet, the remaining one was easy to deal with.

Fang Linyan stunned it with [Dragon Cough Flash], then he grabbed its leg and threw it into the oven.

After killing these 3 enemies with swift means, Fang Linyan finally got precious time to act alone.

He was going to look for Zhou Zhuo, then he suddenly noticed something shining on the dead Zhu Xiaojian. It was actually a white key.

Fang Linyan immediately felt very curious.

The lowest-level key he had ever seen was light blue, which dropped light blue equipment. He had never seen a white key before. Could it be that there was white equipment in it?

Based on the principle that even mosquito leg was also meat, Fang Linyan simply picked it up and kept it in the storage space.

Then he also threw Zhu Xiaojian’s body into the oven. In just a few seconds, he was turned into wisps of green smoke.

Then Fang Linyan naturally started to look for Zhou Zhuo. He searched around the kitchen first, but he found that there was no one there.

Then he recalled Zhu Xiaojian’s words and behaviors at that time. It was almost certain that he had met Zhou Zhuo, and Zhou Zhuo was probably dead.

And this was the kitchen, so the most likely remaining possibility was that Zhou Zhuo was already… in the process of being cooked.

In this situation, Fang Linyan walked up a corridor next to the giant oven.

Then he found that there was a huge hall above. There were a lot of tables and benches, but no one was there.

This should be the main hall of Gao Family Inn. The beastkins usually ate here.

When the guests came into the Gao Family Inn, they probably saw the same hall.

On the right side of the inn lobby, there was an open kitchen.

The most eye-catching thing in the kitchen was a super-large oven. Fang Linyan immediately understood that this thing was the upper part of the giant oven below.

The floor of the oven was just composed of dozens of thick dark brown railings, dividing it into upper and lower floors.

The upper layer was the oven that appeared in front of his eyes, and the lower layer was especially used to input fuel.

With just several meters away, Fang Linyan could feel the overwhelming hot air from the oven!

Not only that, but he also smelled a strange aroma of barbecue.

Fang Linyan strode toward the oven, and he found 4 fat roasted pigs hanging in the depths of the oven, spinning slowly.

These 4 roasted pigs were all fat and strong. Their skin had been roasted into golden yellow, and they were still bubbling with oil. It looked very crispy at first glance.

Drops of fat dripped continuously from the roasted pigs into the red hearth, ignited a small flame, and then turned into a wisp of green smoke.

However, when he looked carefully, he found an extremely horrifying scene. That was, only 1 roasted pig was normal, and the bellies of the other 3 roasted pigs that had been cut open were bulging.

Several sharp iron hooks were used to forcibly pull the 2 sides of the abdomen, but a hole was left in the pig’s throat. A human head with a distorted face could be seen from the hole!!

Obviously, in order to pursue a unique taste, most of the human beings used as ingredients were placed in the belly of the pig.

When Fang Linyan’s eyes rested on the innermost roasted pig, he finally got a prompt:

“Contestant ZB419, you have found the target, Zhou Zhuo.”

“Please obtain the token in his body: White Bone Beasktin’s bone fragment.”

Fang Linyan was stunned when he saw the prompt. How could there be such a thing in Zhou Zhuo’s body?

But immediately a memory inherited in his mind emerged.

It was more than 10 years ago. Fang Xiaoqi, who was still a child, was playing on the pier with a group of playmates, including Zhou Zhuo of course.

At this time, a tower ship went down the river. The lights inside were brightly lit, and the sound of silk and bamboo music came. A group of people inside were cheering and having a feast.

Suddenly, an old man came out of the crowd, jumped up high, and shouted,

“Evil creature, die!”

Then he punched down.

At the front end of his punch, there was a phantom of a giant fist. The upper half of the tower ship was immediately smashed apart.

A woman in white flew out of the tower ship and shouted,

“Heavenly Crippling Fist! Why are you here to join in the fun?”

Then she fought fiercely with the old man. Finally, the woman was captured by the old man with a mirror, revealing the true form of white bones, then she was blown apart by the old man’s fist.

As a result, most of the bone fragments that exploded were burned in mid-air, but one piece of bone happened to hit Zhou Zhuo’s left knee.

That night, Zhou Zhuo had a high fever and was in a coma, so his family found a wandering taoist. The taoist made a talisman, burned it into ashes, and let him drink it.

This talisman was quite effective. It eliminated the yin qi and evil qi on the bone to a great extent. In addition, Zhou Zhuo was still a virgin at the time, so he was spared.

However, Zhou Zhuo’s leg was limping since then.

After thinking of the cause and effect of the incident, Fang Linyan also understood it suddenly.

He stared at the roasted pig wrapped around Zhou Zhu’s corpse, and he found that it was 8 meters deep into the oven.

And there were mysterious and strange runes engraved on the iron hooks that hung the roasted pig.

Zhu Ganglie, who was obsessed with the way of barbecue, usually directly used the beasktin spell to activate the rune to complete the tedious work of rotating the roasted pig inside, seasoning, etc.

However, Fang Linyan didn’t know beasktin spell, so he had only 2 choices to get Zhou Zhuo’s corpse.

First, get into the oven himself.

Second, let Rubes turn into a humanoid form to get it.

The second option seemed to be the best.

It was just that when Fang Linyan looked at the oven, he would always think of the crisscross patterns in the oven below, as well as the fire-type treasures inlaid on the oven wall below.

Of course, there was also the scene where the earth puppet and Zhu Xiaojian’s corpse were reduced to ashes in a few seconds…

Once something unexpected happened after Rubes entered, then he could only use ordinary [Mechanical Dire Wolf] to deal with the next battle, which increased lot of risks to the following Ascension Trial.

At this moment, Fang Linyan suddenly heard the crisp sound of “dang dang dang“.

It was an earth puppet that appeared more than 20 meters. It was looking at Fang Linyan with eyes shining red lights.

While beating a copper bell with stone desperately, it screamed,

“Thief! There is a thief!!”

Fang Linyan was really breaking out in a cold sweat right now. Knowing that the situation was extremely bad, he hastily stunned it with [Dragon Cough Flash].

At the same time, Rubes had already rushed up ferociously, launched [Bite] directly at a distance of 15 meters, threw it to the ground, and bit!

Fang Linyan who witnessed this scene did not dare to delay.

Looking at the blazing hot oven with terrifying temperature in front of him, he gritted his teeth and rushed into the oven.

Of course, Fang Linyan was definitely not an idiot who acted rashly. The moment he rushed into the oven, he directly activated the newly acquired ability:

“[The Connection Between Two Capitals Is Unmatched]!”

This skill could be activated twice an hour without limit, and it was a skill that would expire after this mission. Of course, Fang Linyan would try it at this time.

The moment he activated this skill, the phantom of the Eagle Mouth Pass appeared behind Fang Linyan. There was also a burst of vigorous and passionate drumming.

Fang Shanwen, the ancestor of the Fang Family, liked to go into battle shirtless and beat the drum to cheer for the dauntless soldiers before the battle.

A strange force spread all over Fang Linyan’s body, protecting him from any harm.

However, Fang Linyan’s entry actually touched the pre-set array in the oven. Probably sensing a drop in temperature, the array on the hearth below started to shine automatically.

TL: He can still ignore the trap in this invincible state right?
