Beginning as King of Elden

Chapter 89
"The Faded... Are you here to participate in the festival?"

The leading soldier who was probably the squad leader asked Li Lin.

Li Lin nodded, "Are you soldiers from the Red Lion City?"

"Well. The Red Lion City is in that direction, please go there by yourself."

He said in a casual tone, pointed in one direction, and turned around.

The other soldiers were also full of lifelessness. In this battle, a soldier's armor was torn open by a giant dog, and a long wound three centimeters deep was scratched from his shoulder to his chest, and he only simply bandaged it After a while, he followed the team and prepared to leave.

"Excuse me, are you..."

The team leader of the Red Lion turned his head and said to him with an indifferent expression: "We stay here to suppress corruption, please go to the Red Lion City, our general is waiting for you there."

After all, he never looked back, and led the team to an endless end.

Sighing, Li Lin rode the spirit horse and ran towards the direction pointed by the soldier as he said.

Along the way, he saw many red lion soldiers who took the initiative to build walls of flame to suppress the scarlet corruption.

In addition, there are soldiers who are burning the corrupted monsters with flames.

The characteristics of these troops were the same as the one he had seen before. All members were determined to die, to stay in this ominous scarlet land, and to delay the expansion of scarlet corruption with their small but great lives.

Every time this happens, Li Lin will take the initiative to rush forward to help these soldiers eliminate the monsters.

I don't know if it's because he is a faded person, even if he offered to help, the attitude of these soldiers is quite cold.

However, doing a lot of good deeds will always pay off. After one of the soldiers helped these soldiers kill monsters, a soldier who was probably the captain gave Li Lin some corrupt moss medicine.

According to him, it was researched by the scholars and soldiers of the Red Lion City, and it was a medicine that could treat scarlet corruption.

This is indeed a great help. Scarlet corruption is a terrifying thing. Li Lin can't guarantee that he can rely on his [-]-point vitality and eight bottles of detox to overcome the debuff of scarlet corruption, so he faces monsters along the way. All very cautious.

Speaking of which, the prayers he learned at the round table and from his former prayer master could not get rid of the negative state of "scarlet corruption", and the people of Red Lion City managed to heal it through medicine.In a sense, science is indeed more reliable than prayers of belief in gods.

Li Lin then shamelessly asked the soldier how to make the Corruption Moss Medicine. Unfortunately, the squad leader did not know how to make the Corruption Moss Medicine. He only got the drug distribution in the city.

After that, at the entrance of a tunnel, Li Lin met a man in a special dress.

This is a guy dressed like a samurai.

The body is made of iron plates connected in series and tied tightly.

His face was that of an old man... no, he was wearing an old man's wooden mask.

At his waist, there are two blades, one long and one short.

Compared with other humanoid creatures that Li Lin met at the junction, this person wearing the old man's mask was a little short in stature, and although the exposed skin was a healthy yellow, it was also a little thin.

The old man also saw himself, and in his eyes, Li Lin did not see any killing intent.

Slowing down the speed of the horse, Li Lin got off the horse ten meters in front of the old man and walked over.

"Hello."

Although the face of the old man was only presented by a wooden mask, Li Lin could feel the slightly decayed old breath of the warrior opposite him, and he could also see his wrinkled skin, so he greeted him with respect.

At this moment when he approached the old man, Li Lin realized that one of his fingers had been cut off, leaving only nine fingers.

"It's been a long time since I met a polite young man like you." The samurai opposite said, and sure enough, judging from his voice, he was probably an old man in his 70s or [-]s.

Beside him, there was a soldier from Red Lion City.

Li Lin glanced at it. The soldier didn't have any wounds on his body, but he was no longer breathing.

Judging by his appearance, he should have died not long ago.

"Excuse me, are you here..."

"Participate in the ceremony of Lataen." The old man looked quite patient, "By the way, come here to see one of my ineffective disciples."

Noticing Li Lin's gaze, he continued to explain.

"The old man is not a bloodthirsty person now. This guy blocked me here, so I beheaded him."

Although he was a little curious as to why there were no wounds on the body of the dead soldier, but because he had just met the old man, Li Lin still didn't ask such impolite questions.

"Speaking of which, this tunnel looks like a mine for digging metal."

Li Lin asked curiously, "Your disciple...why is he in such a place?"

As if being poked into a sore spot, the old man fell silent.

"Pursuing power that doesn't belong to you will eventually lead to an inhuman end."

His tone was far away, and Li Lin couldn't tell for a moment whether he was talking about his disciple who was inexplicably in the mine, or talking about other people or things.

"You look very idle."

The old man suddenly complained, "You are also here to participate in the festival, why don't you accompany me, an old man, for a journey?"

After taking a look at the old man's slightly thin body, Li Lin nodded and said.

"it is good."

He walked into the tunnel with the old man, and sure enough, as he expected, this was probably a mine that provided metal for the Red Lion City.

There are also a small number of soldiers guarding the mine. Seeing Li Lin and the two armed men break in, these soldiers raised their weapons without hesitation and attacked.

Turning his head to look at the masked old man, he also turned his gaze to Li Lin at the same time.

The old man folded his hands on his chest with a leisurely attitude, and he didn't seem to have any intention of doing anything.

I understand, it turned out that he regarded me as a coolie.

Instantly enlightened, Li Lin drew out the curved sword.

In front of him, three soldiers from the Red Lion City attacked together.

The quality of these soldiers is far superior to those he met in Stonewell City. Not only are their physical fitness and weapon-using skills stronger, but they also cooperate skillfully with each other.

If he was besieged by such soldiers at that time, as long as the number exceeded ten, he would probably have to suffer on the spot.

...so how weak is Gregor?

Even though he almost died in the hands of Gregor at the beginning, and he won because of Nefeli's help and Gregor's own final hesitation, Li Lin still couldn't help but lose his mind during the battle.

[Flowing Water Sword Skill - Galaxy].

Because the old man was standing there, with no intention of avoiding it, Li Lin had no choice but to turn the hound's tusks into stars all over the sky, and almost blocked the joint attack of the three soldiers in no particular order.

The next moment, he turned around and flashed behind the three Red Lion City soldiers.

The sword spine struck again and again, and the three soldiers fell down in response.

Ashamed to say, even though he was a professional fighter and a professional competitive online game player in his previous life, Li Lin has never learned how to use the technique of "beating the back of the head or the back of the neck to make people unconscious". The last time he used this technique, Li Lin wasn't even sure whether he knocked people out or killed him...

So, after that, he took the time to test this trick with a few delirious humanoid enemies who actively attacked him.

Now, he is [-]% sure of how to "knock the enemy unconscious but not kill him".

"Girl Chirp's swordsmanship..." the old man muttered in a low voice.

"Ah?" Li Lin didn't hear what the old man was talking about, so he turned his head and asked while sheathing his sword.

"Nothing! Your sword is pretty good."
