Chapter 270: Steve
Actually, it was a long time ago when Fang Mo watched the first season of JOJO.
To be honest, he couldn't remember some of the details, but even so, he still vaguely felt that something was not right.
In the original story, after Jonathan and his companions arrived at the Windknight's Lot, there were many people working here, some harvesting wheat, others fishing, and everything seemed normal. Then, suddenly, a child, hypnotized by Dio, swooped in like a Persian monkey and stole everyone's luggage, intending to lure them into a cemetery for a zombie ambush.
But now, it seems that there's not a single living person around.
Not just people, but it seems like other creatures have disappeared too. Fang Mo looked at the mini-map and found it unprecedentedly empty.
This is a bit strange.
"Be careful, this place is filled with an eerie feeling."
Zeppeli, being a Ripple user, also quickly reminded, "We have delayed too long in the cave, and now the sun is about to set."
"Woof! Woof woof!!!"
While they were talking, their war pet, Danny, suddenly started barking loudly.
"Danny, what's wrong?" Jonathan turned to look at his beloved dog, "Have you found something you want to tell us?"
"It says it smells something foul, right ahead."
Fang Mo drew his Nichirin Sword from his bag, then shrugged and said, "Actually... I think I smell it too."
"What?"
Speedwagon, surprised, blurted out without thinking, "I can't believe that you, a Mr. Mage, can understand dog language and have a nose as sensitive as a dog's. That's truly amazing, just like a dog..."
"Don't think I won't hit you just because you keep narrating."
Before Speedwagon could finish, Fang Mo interrupted, "When I get angry, I dare to desecrate even others' ancestral graves. Do you think there's anything I wouldn't dare to do? Believe it or not, I can use a Grumm naming spell to turn you into an upside-down man?"
"I'm sorry."
Speedwagon quickly bowed his head in submission, "I didn't mean that, Mr. Mage."
"Anyway, let's cross the river first."
At the crucial moment, it was Jonathan who stepped forward to mediate, pointing to a small river on the opposite side, "If Dio is in the castle, we must cross this river first."
"Good, I'll show you the versatility of the Ripple."
Hearing this, Zeppeli stepped forward, pressing his hands on the water surface: "Watch closely, JoJo."
As the power of the Ripple infused, a strange ripple spread across the water surface, and Zeppeli, stepping lightly on these ripples, easily crossed to the other side.
"Oh! I'll try too!"
Jonathan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly leaped up.
The power of the Ripple burst forth under his feet, temporarily solidifying the river water into a mud-like texture. As soon as the water reached his ankles, he immediately stepped forward, quickly crossing over.
Erina didn't say anything but looked around.
She quickly found a rock, then with one hand holding her dress and the other carrying a great sword, she kicked the rock with her foot, sending it flying towards the river like a cannonball.
And Erina herself leapt up like lightning, lightly tapping her toes on a stone mid-air, causing the stone to plummet into the water with a splash, creating thousands of water droplets. Erina elegantly reached the opposite bank of the river. She didn't master any Ripple techniques, but merely relied on her own strength to cross the riverbank.
"This..."
The two on the opposite bank were stunned by this scene.
"Even though I was mentally prepared, I'm still shocked after seeing this," Jonathan couldn't help but exclaim, "Erina, your figure is so elegant and powerful, it's truly beautiful."
"So, are you really not considering learning the Ripple?"
Zeppeli couldn't help but try again to persuade her, "Ripple can delay aging, especially for girls."
"Thank you, but I don't need it anymore."
Erina gently patted her skirt and politely said to Zeppeli, "The aging of my body is already very slow. If I practice Ripple qigong... I'm afraid I won't be able to grow old together with Jojo."
"..."
Zeppeli, seeing everyone's performance, also breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed their team was indeed strong. They should have no problem dealing with the vampire now.
In just a few short minutes, they easily defeated the zombies.
"What a powerful weapon."
After dispatching these minions, Jonathan was amazed at the Nichirin Sword in his hand: "It's as if it was specifically designed to fight vampires and zombies. It took care of them in an instant."
"With this, our chances against Dio are even better."
Zeppeli, enviously eyeing the knife, then said, "But this guy is really cautious. I thought he would ambush us here, but he didn't show up at all. He must be testing our strength from the shadows. I didn't expect someone wearing the Stone Mask to be so cunning... We must eliminate him immediately."
Yes, in the original work, Dio actually appeared here and severely injured Zeppeli with his freezing technique, demonstrating almost overwhelming strength.
"Why isn't Dio here now, then?"
Actually, he's a bit scared.
Originally, after Fang Mo disappeared for seven years, Dio had let his guard down, which is why he was able to poison George. But in the great fire, Dio exchanged a punch with Jonathan and had his entire arm burned off by Jonathan's solar power.
At that moment, he realized that vampires could be naturally countered by the power of the sunstone.
And that mage had set everything up seven years earlier.
Before becoming a vampire, Dio could fight Jonathan evenly, thinking he was invincible as a vampire. But he was actually naturally countered by Jonathan.
He never expected all this to be part of the other party's plan.
Dio was genuinely afraid, not of Jonathan hunting him down - after all, the Joestar family, no matter how powerful, were still mortals and he had ways to deal with them.
But the mage was different.
Dio was afraid of the mage coming after him personally.
Now wearing the Stone Mask, he clearly had no way back, so he had to be extremely cautious with every step, and wouldn't show up easily.
And just like confirming Zeppeli's speculation.
After the people dealt with the zombies, strange noises suddenly came from the surrounding woods, followed by several shadows fleeing rapidly into the distance.
Erina immediately threw her weapon, and the Ten Springs Sword drew an arc in mid-air, piercing through three shadows at once and nailing them firmly to a tree.
Jonathan, imitating the action, also took out a shadow.
Zeppeli, without a weapon, hastily threw stones, but since the Ripple couldn't adhere to the stones, he hit a shadow but couldn't stop them, and soon several shadows escaped.
"Dio is indeed watching us."
Speedwagon immediately said, "I understand, it must be that Dio is also afraid of the presence of Mr. Mage, so he chose to probe cautiously."
"Let's interrogate those undead first."
Zeppeli thought for a moment and said, "It would be best to get some information. If we can't get any, we'll take them down; we can't let these threats continue to exist among humans."
Everyone nodded and then walked towards the nearby woods.
Jonathan's Nichirin Sword had the properties of the sun, and the shadow it hit turned directly to ash, so their target was the three undead nailed to the tree by Erina.
However, to everyone's surprise.
When Erina pulled her sword from the tree, the three creatures made a strange "wryyy" sound and their mouths revealed needle-like sharp fangs.
"Vampires!?"
Zeppeli said incredulously, "They're not undead? Dio... what on earth does he want to /Bleam
