After Being Betrayed by the Empire, I Decided to Support the Demon King

Having served the Empire for half of his life, Ela was decisively sold out. He intended to flee to another country but was nearly beaten to death during his escape before being saved by a dragon-gi...

Chapter Twenty-Four: Holy crap! Hell Bus!

【Hell】, what kind of place is this? Well... it's an environment that is very unsuitable for normal people to live in. It is full of lava, frost, and poisonous miasma... The temperature here may be scorching hot, and ten feet away is a frozen wasteland.

But it's mostly magma, and you can always smell the sulfur... a smell of gunpowder, but unfortunately, the gunpowder in this world can't be detonated.

Otherwise, Yinla would definitely have assembled a machine gun unit, armed with five-armored soldiers, and swept across the world... Unfortunately, that didn't work.

This kind of environment should make people feel very uncomfortable. Even if you have important business to attend to, you will feel more urgent and eager to leave as soon as possible... This is what is called hell.

but……

"Ah... yawn~ It's so warm."

Satan Ye yawned contentedly, holding Sirina's hand as they walked past the lava without a care in the world, seemingly unaffected by any discomfort.

Not only her, but also Sirina and Ira were the same. The former looked relaxed, as if she had cast off a heavy burden on her shoulders... while the latter looked at the surrounding skull pillar decorations and pondered something.

How should I put it? Although Hell is not a good place for many intelligent beings, it is truly their home in reality for Satan Ye (the Crimson Demon Dragon) and Sirina (the Succubus).

What are those?

"That's what Satan asked."

Yinla followed her finger and realized that she was referring to those pillars made of stark white bones... There were quite a few of these pillars, scattered throughout the desolate hell, bearing traces of polishing and gluing.

Honestly, I've been using Yeguo Reading to read and follow my favorite books lately. It has easy source switching, multiple reading voice options, and is compatible with both Android and Apple devices. (yeguoyuedu)

"Decorative items...that's my guess."

As he spoke, Yinla looked at the different colored bones on the pillars and said his guess: "Or they are road signs. The different colored bones are pointing in different directions, indicating different buildings."

However, this is just speculation.

"Huh? Mr. Yinla, you didn't know?"

Satan asked in surprise, implying that it was quite strange that Yinla didn't know either.

Seeing Yinla shaking his head helplessly, Shilina rubbed Satan's head and said, "Mr. Yinla, you don't know everything either... We're all clueless about Hell."

Hillina is right. Even Ira needs to have read about a place in a book or actually been there herself to understand the situation and circumstances... Hell is definitely not in that category.

"Pale bone pillars."

As Yinla spoke, under the gaze of Satan Ye and Xilina, he reached out and touched the warm white bone pillars, studying them: "Inlaid with special bones of red, blue, yellow, purple, cyan, black and other colors... Each pillar is somewhat different, and somewhat the same."

What does that mean exactly?

"To be honest, I'm lost."

As she spoke, without a hint of urgency, Sirina and Satan nodded indifferently, indicating that they also didn't know the specific directions...

"However, if we follow the red markings on the pillars back, we can return to our teleportation array..."

As Yinla spoke, he pointed to the red markings on the pillars behind him and said, "I'm trying to see where I'll end up if I keep following the red markings."

Neither of them had any objections, and after discussing it, they prepared to continue.

Just then...

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

A rhythmic sound came from afar, accompanied by the sound of a giant beast running. The three of them stopped at the same time and waited... Then, a huge cat ran from the direction of the stone pillar in the distance.

"???"

Yes, it's a cat, a rather beautiful tabby cat, about the size of a small boat, carrying a building that looks like a house on its back, maintaining its balance in a very strange way as it runs across this desolate land...

As it approached Yinla and the other two, its movements slowed down, then it stopped and lay down beside the bone pillar in front of them... Only then did Yinla realize that what the large cat was carrying on its back was not a "house," but a "carriage," filled with many demons.

Moreover, if Ira wasn't mistaken, these demons were wearing suits...

"Clang, clang, clang~"

With a crisp sound, the carriage door opened, and some steps were quickly lowered and placed on the ground... Then, to the astonishment of the three, some demons stepped out of the carriage.

After about four or five demons got off the bus, the giant cat glanced at Yinla and her group, and after confirming that they didn't want to get on, it straightened up and continued running.

Yinla noticed that the tip of the cat's tail appeared to have been painted red.

...

The demons who got off the vehicle all seemed to be carrying fishing rods. They were chatting and laughing. They noticed the strange figures of Ira, Shirina, and Satan standing still, but they didn't come over to talk to them. Instead, they walked straight towards the lava lake not far away.

The scene was so shocking that it stunned Ira, and Sirina and Satan were in no better shape.

“Mr. Yinla, what is that? Is that… the carriage from hell?”
