Kaede Sato quickly recognized the identity of the female officer in front of him. She was the scientist from the Lava team, Bonfire, whom he met in the Mount Godsend when he first arrived in the Fengyuan Region.
"It's this guy. It's been a long time."
At the thought of the toughness she had displayed in Daklaye's Nightmare Barrier, Kaede Sato immediately became vigilant.
To be honest, the biggest reason he was able to escape from the hands of the Lava team officer, who was far more powerful and had willpower than him, was none other than the Heavenly King Daklaye, who was sent flying by his Swamp Monster.
If Daklaye hadn't severely injured the group of elves in her hands, it was hard to say whether Kaede Sato would have met with the same fate in the future. He might have died somewhere, and there would be no future to speak of.
At this moment, Kaede Sato also recognized the middle-aged man in a white coat next to Bonfire. He was Dr. Thaurance, who lived in Autumn Leaf Town.
Speaking of Dr. Thaurance, one had to mention the Chimney Mountain incident and the elf Deoquisis in the game. In the game, Dr. Thaurance was the one who developed the use of the power of meteorites to make Chimney Mountain explode or fall silent.
At the same time, he also had the three types of meteorites that allowed Deoquisis to transform freely.
"Looking at Dr. Thaurance's frightened expression, he must have been kidnapped by the Lava team. However, judging from the timeline, Dr. Thaurance shouldn't have found the meteorite containing the mysterious power yet. What's the purpose of the Lava team kidnapping him?"
Kaede Sato observed the little elf doctor's expression and movements. He quickly came to the conclusion that he was being held hostage, and then pondered deeply about the purpose of the Lava Squad.
Dr. Thaurance was undoubtedly an expert in meteorites, and the purpose of the Lava team kidnapping him was most likely related to meteorites.
However, Kaede Sato really couldn't think of any connection between Route 112 and meteorites. If they really wanted to find meteorites, they should go to Meteor Waterfall, which was the most famous concentration of meteorite craters in the Fengyuan Region.
"Could it be that there are meteorites from outer space here? But I've never heard of a meteorite crater here."
The more Kaede Sato thought about it, the more confused he became. In the end, he simply stopped thinking about it and waited to see what would happen.
Bonfire was very anxious now. She knew that mobilizing a large force to search on Road 112 would definitely not be able to hide from the Alliance's eyes. It wouldn't be long before the Alliance would organize people to obstruct them.
Furthermore, now that the Alliance's official Professor Solance was still being held hostage, the Alliance would definitely think of a way to rescue him, perhaps even sending a Heavenly King Stage powerhouse.
Finally, they were very close to the Flame Cauldron Town, and there was a retired Heavenly King there. Although he was already very old, and his power had declined, but as the saying goes, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse, and he still had the power of a Heavenly King.
Once this Yuan Fengyuan Fire Heavenly King, who abhorred evil, found out that they had sealed off Route 112, it would be very difficult for them to escape unscathed.
"Hey, did you tamper with the detector that you designed? Why haven't we found any traces of them after so long? Do you want to be punished?"
Bonfire was anxious, and she also wanted to vent her anger on Professor Solance, who was next to her.
As soon as she finished speaking, the Nine-tailed Beast next to her immediately used one of its tails to tie up Professor Solance, and it was getting tighter and tighter.
"Hmph, my wife and son are in your hands. I won't joke around with their lives. I have perfectly input the wavelength data released by the stone you brought into these detectors. As long as the distance is enough, we will definitely be able to find it."
"However, the time you gave us is too short, and the materials are not the best. Being able to make this kind of detector is already the limit. If you say that there is that kind of stone here, then the detector will be able to detect it sooner or later."
"You damn beasts, you will definitely be punished in the future, ahhh ~"
Although Professor Solance was scared to death at this time, when he thought that his wife and son were in the hands of the other party, he immediately forced himself to respond. However, before he could finish, he was forcibly interrupted by Nine-tailed Beast.
For a moment, Professor Solance was suffocated by Nine-tailed Beast's tail.
"Hmph hmph ~ It's good that you know. Don't try to play tricks. If there is an accident, I can't guarantee the safety of your wife and son. The new Fire Village's temper is not very good."
Bonfire saw that Professor Solance, who had always been very cowardly, had a rare toughness, and there was a hint of surprise on her face. However, her eyes soon showed contempt, and then she threatened Professor Solance in a strange tone.
Upon hearing that, Dr. Solance's flushed face instantly turned into one of gnashing teeth. He couldn't wait to rush to the bonfire and fight it out with them. Unfortunately, he was just a weak scholar. Otherwise, his entire family wouldn't have been kidnapped by the Lava team so easily.
Bonfire was very satisfied with Professor Solance's performance at this time, which meant that this cowardly man did not lie to her. So, she winked at Nine-tailed Beast next to her, asking her to stop torturing Professor Solance.
After Professor Solance regained his mobility, he immediately lay on the ground, gasping for breath. However, his eyes were fixed on Bonfire in front of him, and he did not hide the hatred in his eyes.
When Bonfire saw this, she just sneered a few times and then turned her head away from Professor Solance.
"This woman is still as ruthless as ever. When we were at the Sacred Volcano, this woman used the lives of the White River Village guards to threaten Marcus, the son of the old village, to make him do something. This time, she used his family to force Professor Solance to do something."
At this time, Kaede Sato was on the crown of a big tree near Bonfire and the others. Naturally, he heard every word of the conversation between Bonfire and Professor Solance. Suddenly, he was a little more afraid of Bonfire.
At the same time, Kaede Sato could not help but be interested in the special stone that Bonfire was looking for. From Bonfire's behavior, it seemed that the stone she was looking for was very important. It might even be an important item that the Lava team would use to cause trouble in the future.
However, Kaede Sato didn't get involved in this mess for the time being. Even though he sympathized with Professor Solance and was very interested in what the Lava Team was looking for, he wouldn't seek his own death.
He was alone, how could he be a match for the group of Lava team in front of him, especially with Bonfire, a ruthless leader of the Lava team.
A long time ago, she was already a Quasi-Heavenly King trainer and dared to provoke a Heavenly King Level divine beast. Now, her strength must be much stronger than before. Even Kaede Sato felt that it was very possible that she had already advanced to the Heavenly King Level.
Therefore, Kaede Sato made up his mind to hide now. When the Lava team left, he would quickly run away. At the same time, he would use his anonymous identity to tell the nearby Alliance police about Professor Solance and his family.
Unfortunately, Kaede Sato's wishful thinking seemed to have failed.
"Who's there? Come out now, or don't blame me for being rude."
Under the tree, Nine-Tails' nose twitched slightly, and then she immediately raised her head. Bonfire's expression changed when she saw this, and she immediately shouted in the direction of the tree where Kaede Sato was at this time.
