The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 510 Oh, I won!
Just walked through the glass door.

[The front is a sterile room, please change into dust-proof clothing]

The announcement came from the room. It was not a cold mechanical voice, but a sweet and lovely girl's voice. It seems that Lao Deng, who built this facility, really enjoyed himself.

"Zun Zun, did you hear that?!"

Huihui tugged at the corner of his clothes a little excitedly.

"That was a mysterious warning sound just now, saying that if you want to continue forward, you must first find the equipment 'FangChenFu'. In fact, as long as you enter the small room in front, a strong wind will blow over. It's a normal wind now, but in the past, in order to prevent intruders without 'FangChenFu', I'm afraid that poison gas would be released...!"

"I think it's probably a wind bath to prevent people from bringing dust into the sterile room."

“Kazuma, I’m starting to think Megumin is kind of cute. But Zun-zun’s expression is pretty normal. If something happens here, we’ll definitely see some interesting reactions.”

The two of them were whispering in the back, looking Zun Zun up and down with malicious eyes, and he decided that he would not reveal any flaws!
...That's enough, stop looking at me like that!
After entering the small room before the sterile room, Darkness blocked the air outlet first, making a gesture of intercepting the poison gas to protect her companions at all costs, which made Sato Kazuma and Aqua laugh.

Darkness scratched her head in confusion, and was visibly disappointed that no poison gas was released, leaving everyone speechless.

Then everyone entered the sterile room.

Then I saw the tracks lined up side by side, it looked like some kind of exaggerated machine...

"That was a horrific trap that harmed countless people."

Huihui looked at the tracks warily and took out her magic wand to prepare for battle. "That vicious trap will eat anyone who stands on it. Even though it has been conquered, we still can't let our guard down!"

"What!? I can't just sit there and watch!"

Darkness yelled and pounced, she lay motionless on the tracks.

"……What are you doing?"

“Doesn’t this monster eat humans? So…ha…ha…great!”

"Hey, that's enough!"

Sato Kazuma pulled up the blushing perverted female Crusader, and at the same time saw the words engraved next to the tracks.

"This looks like some kind of assembly line..."

“It says [GameGirl Assembly Line] on it.”

Aqua said softly after taking a closer look, and then she rummaged around at the end of the track, as if she wanted to find a fully assembled game console there.

Huihui took a deep breath.

"In other words, will this thing create something with what it sucked in? ... Could it be us, the Crimson Demons? Am I approaching a truth that cannot be touched now? ... Is this what Zun Zun just said, will I definitely regret it?"

"…No, not yet."

Zun Zun curled his lips and told Huihui, who was suffering from a chuunibyou, that it was still too early.

Sato Kazuma also said: "I think this should be a toy."

“It’s the toy we found in the underground hangar.” Aqua’s face lit up, and she raised a game console and said loudly: “Look, Kazuma! What did I find!?”

"Ohh! That's great! Now we don't have to fight all the time because there aren't enough game consoles!"

The two cheered for this.

Only gamers can understand.

Meanwhile, facing the two who responded immediately, Megumin looked a little lonely.

"You two don't need to worry about me. We are a man-made race created by humans, who have strayed from God's will... Our ancestors must have been created here..."

There is really a big problem with the members of our team!
Aqua looked compassionate. She gently held Huihui in her arms and said softly, "In the name of Aqua, the goddess of wisdom and water, I allow your strange race to exist. After all, the Crimson Demons are very interesting."

"Please don't call us a weird race!"

Huihui pushed her away with some grief and anger.

At this time, Zun Zun and Sato Kazuma began to wander around, trying to find some useful information, such as the diary of Lao Deng, who created the Red Demon Clan, and the same experimental notes as before.

At this moment, Sato Kazuma suddenly noticed a lonely machine deep in the facility.

A closer look -

“Hey, Aqua! It’s a gashapon machine! There’s a gashapon machine in a place like this!”

"Oh my! It really is a gashapon machine!"

"Do you know what that box is?"

Darkness and Megumin walked over, both of them looking confused.

"This is a gashapon machine." Sato Kazuma touched the machine as if he was reminiscing about it, and said, "When you put a coin in, a gashapon will fall out, and sometimes you'll win a big prize. I don't know why this thing exists, but I really miss it."

"...I don't quite understand what you're saying, but this is a machine for children to play with, right? It has nothing to do with the secret of the birth of the Crimson Demons."

Huihui lost interest.

While Sato Kazuma and Zun Zun were immersed in their emotions, Aqua, who was fiddling with the box, seemed to have discovered something.

"Look, it says [Limited time offer, join the Crimson Demon Clan and get the right to be transformed], look here!"

“Really?! [First Prize: Prototype PlayScation], [Second Prize: GameGirlColor], [Third Prize: Crimson Demon Clan Transformation Rights]… Megumin, what are you doing?”

However, Huihui did nothing. She just scratched off all the words wordlessly.

See, I told you.

You will definitely regret coming here.

I thought the secret origin of the Crimson Demons would be something grand or disturbing in the past, but I didn't expect it to be just a joke, and it even had to rely on a capsule to win - just like the third prize which was no different from a consolation prize.

"You didn't see anything, OK?"

"Not OK at all, but forget it. Remember to buy me some bubbles next time."

Aqua took the opportunity to make a request.

Sato Kazuma sighed and said, "Don't erase the past of the Crimson Demon Clan... Zun Zun, are you going to let her do this?"

"—What do you want me to say?"

"……Feel sorry."

He obviously also realized that Zun Zun was a member of the Red Demon clan after all. Knowing that he was just a being created by a gashapon machine, he must have felt uncomfortable no matter how you look at it.

Darkness, on the other hand, was full of anticipation, and also wanted to be transformed into the appearance of a Crimson Demon.

“Is it okay, Darkness?” Megumin threatened, “You have to know that becoming a Crimson Demon requires going through an extremely difficult process!”

"...What is it?"

"Carve special patterns on private parts!" Although she said it seriously and solemnly, Sato Kazuma and Aqua covered their mouths and shook their shoulders constantly, showing how uncomfortable they were trying to hold back their laughter.

Enough, Huihui, stop talking!
Zun Zun also felt a little ashamed.

Aqua looked at the Gachapon machine and said, "It's a shame though."

"What's a pity?"

"Why wasn't there a mini-Pigsy game machine?"

"……what?"

"I've always wondered why there's no mini-pizza machine? Isn't there one in Elrod, the casino powerhouse?"

The stupid goddess started to complain.

But is this guy serious? The steel ball game machine has been poisoning Liben for more than 30 years like a virus. It is very common for families to be broken up and wives and children to be separated because of it.

If such a game console were invented in this world, humanity might have destroyed itself without the Demon King's army having to intervene.

"Okay, okay, forget about it."

Sato Kazuma signaled them not to waste time here and to quickly look for other clues. Maybe there would be more funny things about the Crimson Demon Clan... ahem, secrets of their origins, etc. So everyone started the treasure hunt game with great interest.

After that, everyone continued to explore the facility, but still found no clues about the Explosive Demon. It seemed that the Explosive Demon was not assembled and modified here.

“The only thing we’ve figured out is that the ancestors of Zun Zun and Hui Hui came out of the Gachapon…”

"Wait a minute, there's something wrong with that statement. At least change it to the right to reform."

Huihui said this in a somewhat frustrated tone.

As a result, the crowd did not find anything worthwhile in the facility. It looked like this was just an insignificant game console processing factory. Even the days of Old Deng, who created the Red Demon Clan, did not seem to have come.

"… I wonder if the Crimson Demons are actually a byproduct of the game console or something…"

“Darkness, I’m going to get angry!”

The team's companions seemed to have found the truth.

To be honest, Zun Zun is not sure. After all, according to common sense, inventions that can improve living standards, such as telephones, speakers, and radios, are actually by-products of weapons.

The Red Demons and the like were probably created by chance. After all, the original purpose of Lao Deng was to build a factory here because he wanted to play video games.

"Zun Zun, your expression is very strange."

"…Nothing. I just think you shouldn't overthink anything, because the things you want to know may give you hilarious answers from unexpected places."

“I understand this very well.”

Sato Kazuma's common sense has been gradually transformed, just like Zunzun's.

“————Ah, I got it!”

At this moment, Aqua suddenly shouted excitedly, and she jumped towards Zun Zun and the others, holding a capsule toy in her hand.

"Hit the jackpot?"

“It’s still first prize!”

Aqua unfolded the paper on the Gachapon in her hand, and it said [First Prize·Prototype PlayScation], just as she said.

"Oh, that's good, Aqua!"

"Hehe, of course! I'm a goddess! ...It's just a pity that I didn't see where the game was."

Then I threw away the capsule with some regret.

Seeing her playing like this, Sato and Shin became quite interested and ran to the gashapon machine to play. Then -

"Third prize?"

“I won third place, too.”

"What a coincidence! I also won the third prize."

Sato Kazuma and the others all won the third prize for the Crimson Demon Transformation Rights, which made Aqua snort in triumph.

"I'm just so lucky!"

"Lucky? You?"

Sato Kazuma looked at the boasting stupid goddess dumbfounded. This guy's luck has always been the worst. How can he have good luck?

"Aqua, have you ever thought about a question?"

"What? You're not jealous, so you want to make excuses for yourself."

"I'm not that bored. But have you ever thought about it? For ordinary people, a useless game console obviously doesn't have the right to be modified by the Crimson Demons, right? After all, they are the Crimson Demons."

"……what!"

It seems that the stupid goddess has also reacted.

There is no need to elaborate on how powerful the Red Demons are. They can single-handedly fight against Demon Kings, divine beasts, and disaster-level monsters; they can also use magic to wash clothes, cook, and destroy things. Their ability to use magic is terribly strong.

In this dangerous world, it is obviously better for the Red Demon Clan to have the right to transform.

“So, Aqua, you…”

“I don’t believe it! Zun Zun! You haven’t twisted yet, come on, twist it too! Use your luck that’s even better than Kazuma’s to prove that I’m lucky this time!”

"——What kind of perverted logic is that!"

Sato Kazuma cursed at the stupid idiot goddess, but he also looked at Zun Zun, as if wanting to know what the luckiest person in the team would come up with.

Under the gaze of his companions, Zun Zun had to twist his body casually.

"……What's this?"

"Is it Baoyu?"

“It looks weird.”

Zun Zun held a pure white gem in his hand. The bright light it emitted looked somewhat sacred, and the huge magical power contained in it seemed to purify the air.

And Zun Zun's expression became strange.

"Hey everyone, I have a bad feeling oh oh oh——"

Before he could finish his words he was sucked into the black hole.
