An afternoon passed quietly, and it was already night when Esther came back.
Fireflies lit up the streets in the affluent area, with some houses brightly lit and some with no lights on at night. But on this seemingly quiet street, the sound of police sirens could be heard.
Not far away, a huge fire lit up half the night.
Fire trucks had already been dispatched, spraying water jets to extinguish the flames. However, the fire was so big that it was not easy to extinguish it.
Perhaps when it is finally rescued, only the remains of the house will remain.
Esther walked in front of the burning house. The firelight illuminated his face brightly, while the other half was hidden in the darkness, like the two sides of Yin and Yang.
"Sir, please stay away. The fire has not been extinguished yet and it is very dangerous." A firefighter stopped Esther from stepping forward and said.
Esther glanced at the firefighter with a dull look, then ignored him and walked in.
"gentlemen!"
"What's going on? Why did someone walk in?" the firefighter captain asked.
"Captain, I'm sorry, I didn't stop him!"
"Shit, go save people!" the captain shouted.
However, at this moment, the fire became stronger again, and the scorching temperature made it impossible for anyone to move forward.
"team leader!"
"Damn it, put out the flames first!" the captain said.
In this situation, they had no choice but to continue rescuing. They could only pray for good luck to those who walked in. However, such a large fire was probably already a disaster.
Esther was walking in the familiar yard. The wooden rocking chair originally placed in the yard had been turned into charcoal, and all the lanterns planted in the soil were burned to ashes.
At this time, Esther's face was expressionless, as if he had no emotions.
Then, he walked into the house that was burning with fire. Thick black smoke floated in the sky. The hot air inside was impossible to breathe, but Esther didn't care.
The burning beams could not hold up and fell at Esder's feet. He stepped on the stairs that were about to collapse, climbed to the second floor, and walked to the door of Lilina's room.
There was no one in the room, it seemed that Lilina had already left.
At this moment, a strange sound came from behind.
Esther turned around and saw a lizard-like humanoid creature in front of him. It had tongues of fire sticking out of its mouth, as if to express that it was what turned this house into this.
"Who sent you?" Esther asked.
The humanoid lizard tilted its head, its vertical pupils devoid of any emotion, as if it were a machine.
"Puppet?"
"It doesn't matter. Since it's a puppet, there will always be clues." Esther raised his hand, and the magic circle was quickly formed.
In an instant, the humanoid lizard sensed danger with its powerful biological instinct, and its limbs quickly exerted force in an attempt to escape.
However, at this moment, four huge tentacles made of blood sprang out from the ground, grabbing it firmly.
Esther stepped forward, stretched out his hand and put it on the humanoid lizard's forehead.
"Come on, let me see your memory."
But just when Esther was about to pry into the memory of this puppet, a certain mechanism in the puppet's body seemed to be triggered, and the puppet expanded to two or three times its original size in an instant.
The next moment, it exploded.
The fire tornado that was set off swept away everything around it in an instant. Then, under the trend of the fire, the house collapsed because of this last straw.
Outside the house, firefighters and police officers watched the house collapse into rubble.
"Hey, put out these fires, and then start search and rescue." The fire brigade captain sighed and said.
After the house collapsed, it was much easier to put out the flames.
At the same time, Esther stood behind the ruins of the house, with spherical blood magic flowing on his palm, imprisoning a black mist.
This is what came out of the puppet's body just after the explosion. At this time, this mist was running around in the magic circle, seeming to want to escape.
Esther observed this thing.
"Black mist?" Esther frowned, feeling very unsure.
Although he has lived a long time and has experienced a lot, it can be seen that he still doesn't know what this fog is.
If you want to talk about the reason, there are too many species that meet the requirements, things that can be parasitic and take the form of black mist. At this moment, Esther can think of no less than ten species.
"Anyway, let's take it back and take a look first." Esther casually strengthened the magic circle and said.
He will find the person who instructed him to do this, and let that person experience the torture of the vampires!
However, after he said this, he realized that his home had been stolen, and there was no place for him to take this thing back.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Esther took a deep breath, and he remembered this!
"Forget it, let's find Lilina first."
Lilina must be in a panic now. After all, her home was burned down by such a fire. She might be hiding somewhere, crying weakly and helplessly.
...
"Eh? Est, how did you find this place?" Lilina's face came out of the door, looking at Est standing outside the door with a confused look on her face.
At this time, Lilina was at Jessica's house.
The blue color on her skin has faded, no wonder she dares to come out.
"..." Esther was silent for a moment, feeling that his worries just now were unnecessary.
"Hey, wait, don't leave!"
Seeing Esther suddenly turning around and leaving, Lilina quickly called out to him.
"You haven't told me what you're here for?"
"It's nothing. I see you are having a lot of fun here, so I won't disturb you. Remember not to come back at night," Esther said.
"What do you mean by don't come back? Please explain clearly!" Lilina came out and quickly grabbed Esther and asked.
I saw Esther smile slightly.
Lilina instantly got goosebumps all over her body, because after Esther showed such a smile, nothing good would happen.
Then, Lilina learned from Esther that her family was gone.
"Ahhhh!!" Lilina held her head, feeling her brain trembling.
She grabbed Esther's shoulders with both hands, "What do you mean losing your home?"
At this time, Jessica walked out because she found it was a bit noisy outside, so she came out to take a look with some concern.
"Lilina, what happened?"
Then, she saw Lilina with tears streaming down her face.
I saw Jessica immediately put on a posture and said with a look full of evil: "Who bullied my Lilina!?"
Then, she saw Esther standing outside the door.
The evil look on his face disappeared without a trace in an instant, and turned into flattery, "Brother, you guys have a chat."
The young couple were talking, and her best friend, Cricket, couldn't interrupt.
