because i am stel

....................................

At the same time, on the other side of the earth.

The solemn door was pushed open from the outside to the inside, and the light of dusk shot into the quiet sacred hall through the door several meters high.On the closed high platform, the sick and weak prince who closed his eyes and prayed raised his eyes.

He saw the tall and burly guard captain kneeling on one knee in the center of the hall, heard the sound of armor rubbing against each other, and smelled the blood flowing from the gaps in the armor.

Strong blood, fresh blood.

The royal city should not be stained with blood.

"Your Highness, the sages in the library have calculated the name of King Awakening." Jin Wei's tone was dull, like a bell.

"Leave the list." The prince's voice was gentle, but he could not refuse.

"Your Highness, the battle outside the royal city..."

"you can go now."

The dialogue between the two parties is simple and direct.However, the guard's actions were slightly stunned.He even raised his head presumptuously, looking towards the high platform in the palace.However, he got nothing in the end, he could only leave a document, and then he withdrew sadly.

The heavy door closed again, but the twilight still spread in the hall.Accompanied by a pure white miraculous circle that suddenly unfolded, the document on the ground was moved from the spatial level to the eyes of the prince on the high platform.

In front of the eyes, three feet in front of the eyes.

An invisible force field wraps the scroll, stretching it and isolating it at the same time. When the handwriting on the scroll is reflected in the eyes of the readers, there is a chuckle on the high platform.

"As expected." The handsome young prince sighed. "Sullivan's ambitions are as unabashed as ever."

As soon as the words fell, another strong voice came from the side of the high platform, accompanied by heavy footsteps.Another handsome prince stepped out of the shadows.

Losric, Lorian.The twin princes who have never succeeded to the throne, who are neither salary kings nor human kings, gather together.

"Which salary kings has he awakened?" Lorian's voice was magnetic, and he carried a heavy and gorgeous sword.

"The ones who are least likely to spread the fire." Losric sneered softly.

"Eldridge, the saint of the White Cult. The salary king enshrined by the branch of the Deep Church - he was just a sinner who preyed on people before he became a saint. If there is no suitable prince or prince in any fire season A proper hero is not his turn to be consecrated by stepping into the primordial furnace. It is but a puppet of the White Cult, and Saliwan can control it as he pleases."

"Fran's undead team... Ah, these brave undead fighters are certainly worthy of admiration. But the season of fire has been missed twice, and the suppressed abyss under the temple of Fran is already imminent—they are undead, and undead Their obsessions are far higher than the tradition and justice recognized by the world. They will only suppress the abyss, and will not leave the temple at all."

"Youmu, the king of giants in the city of crime. Although the city of crime has long been lost, I still remember that before Youmu ascended the throne of the salary king. All he expected was to suppress the city of crime that burned the old capital. Fire—it’s actually not that different from the Undead Squad. Unless the fire of crime is extinguished, it won’t be far from the old capital.”

"Oh, there is another interesting candidate - Rudos from the kingdom of dwarves. This king's kingdom has long been destroyed, so it is possible to spread the fire, but it is only a dwarf. What can it spread?"

Lothric waved his hand, and the documents recording the list of salary kings disappeared.

"And the fifth one is me... Ah, Saliwan. You want to take away the glory of spreading fire from the royal family. You want the Baijiao to become a theocratic country that will rule the earth forever. For this reason, you even don't hesitate to disturb In Huang's third pass on fire season, he wants the whole world to side with you and persecute us. But I won't let you do what you want."

"The hearts of the people in the royal city are already a little unstable." Prince Lorian said in a deep voice.

"I know, Brother Wang. I know everything." Lothric stretched out his fingers, and one after another miraculous circles unfolded and appeared.Bringing Lothric's many battlefields into view.

He saw the killing, he saw the war.I saw knights fighting each other on the plain.I saw soldiers fighting desperately on the city wall.He saw the war knights who were like wild beasts rushing into the front line with ice, setting off a bloody storm.See knights riding dragons tearing apart the skies and raining fury and thunder upon the earth.

he murmured.

"I know, and I've been prepared for a long time. We still have Ge Cide and the Winged Knight. Even if people's hearts are fluctuating, we can stick to it until the last moment——Will you be with me? Brother Wang."

"I will accompany you to the last moment, Lothric. Passing fire is no longer an honor, but a curse. We will end this curse here."

"That's right. We will break this curse. Break it, it should be broken." The slightly younger prince said softly, and he repeated it several times, as if this would strengthen his belief—he closed his eyes, deeply Take a deep breath.

"Brother Wang, do you still remember my little sister?"

"Remember, she followed the tradition and served as the fireproof girl of the first salary king in the sacrificial field." Lorian's tone was tinged with a little doubt. "What's up with her?"

"I have an uneasy premonition." Losric pressed his chest lightly.

"Saliwan is nothing to be afraid of, and neither is the god behind him. But the legend is being fulfilled, and the ancient prophecies have been verified. Now we, and Sullivan, have pushed the ceremony of spreading fire to the last moment. And if According to my hunch. Then we will face the final test."

"...she will wake up, she will come, and we will face her. Face the final judgment, the final trial, the final tribulation."

"We... no, the world is going to face her."

"We're going to face... Shirtel!"

....................................

Another three thousand eight hundred... I really should write a few more words to make up four thousand _(:з」∠)_

And, a book of friendship PY - "People are collapsing, just under the moon, the God of Science"

Well written, you can watch it.

Section [-]. If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools

"After we leave, will the sacrificial ground be left here?"

Before leaving, Shirtel asked the fire prevention woman.She called Yelena at the door, and the little rabbit who had already prepared joined her team.

The Fireproof Girl just smiled and looked at her and the spiral sword in her hand.

"Compared to you, the sacrificial field is irrelevant. Because the spiral sword is in your hand, no matter where you are, you can use it to open the way to the initial furnace."

That's right—Sturtle nodded.She has used the Spiral Sword before, so she naturally knows what kind of effect this object, which is a weapon in her hand but only a ritual tool in the hands of others, has.However, after more than 1 years, Chuhuo's application technology has not changed much, which surprised her a little.

A little sad.

"Will anyone notice a change here?" she asked.

"Yes, miss. Whether it's the sages in the big library or the prophets in the church, they will definitely keep watch over the fire-passing sacrificial field while they are fighting each other. They can tolerate the spiral sword being placed here, yes Because they haven't been able to decide the winner, and because it's a tradition. And once I, or anyone else, leaves the sacrificial ground, the spies will definitely discover the clues of this area."

Secret agent, Stuart knows this profession, and also knows the magic named after this profession.It was a concealment method that could erase sound and traces of movement.If coupled with Ulasilu's light magic, even she would not be able to detect the clues at a long distance in a short period of time.

At least not now she can.

"You mean they can track us with spells?" She figured she might be able to get to work soon.

However not.

"It's not like that, miss." The fire prevention woman explained, leading the two towards the outer square of the sacrificial ground.Poor Ash Guda, who was upside down, was staying there quietly, and the corpses of pilgrims who were beheaded by Shirtel and awakened by the bell not long ago were everywhere along the way.

An ashen, ferocious, and ominous aura lingers and hovers.Like a curse—no, that was a curse.The curse of undeath haunts these mindless corpses.It won't take long for them to wake up again, and the cycle of death will continue.

Yelena stared at the pale corpses, her brows furrowed—it was the first time she saw such an obvious collection of malevolence after arriving in this world.This old hatred from changing times...

This made her feel a little uncomfortable.But she endured and tried to adapt.

And the fire-proof girl stopped beside the motionless Guda.Continue to answer.

"The magic of flames cannot track me and the people around me. Because I am a fireproof woman, I have the ability to affect flames. Unless the spies witness it with their own eyes and follow them in person, it is absolutely impossible for them to trace us. Tracks on the ground. They only realize that someone has left, and then they send people to look for it."

Shirtel looked at Guda, watched as the fireproof woman picked up Guda's halberd lightly, and then put it in the steel giant's hand.

"It seems that you are prepared accordingly." ——She never asked about Guda and the fire prevention girl's combat effectiveness.

But the fire-proof girl could see through her heart—the part of her heart that didn't hide.

"Yes, miss. More than ten years ago, the hero Guda failed to spread the fire, and he died under self-blame. However, due to the decline of the first fire, he was revived again as an undead person. However, he is not purely immortal. People, certain... diseases, pollute it. Let it turn into an irrational beast. Apart from the obsession with spreading fire, all he has left is fighting and killing."

Stuart knew what she was talking about.That is the abyss, the pus of man.It is the mutation of human nature when the first fire is declining, and it is the appearance of the dark soul out of control.The dimmer the flame, the stronger these things become.And when the curse of immortality erupts on a large scale, these things will completely sweep the world where mortals live.

"This is a mistake made by the royal family, so the royal family's choice is to respect its last wish-although it has lost the qualifications of the container and can no longer transmit fire. But it can guard here and treat every attempt to set foot on the fire. The inaugural Salary King of the Road of Fire will be tested."

A radiant radiance emanated from her fingers, and then a double symmetrical golden miracle circle unfolded simultaneously under her feet and Ashes Guda's body.

"Only by defeating Guda can you be qualified to ascend to the throne. And the person who defeats it will inevitably take away its soul, so it is equivalent to it, and it will also have a share in the glory of spreading fire."

Fireproof girl, chant softly.

"Wake up, keeper of the sacrificial ground, continue your mission and stick to your duty. Until the day when the appointment arrives."

And accompanied by her chant and Yelena's whisper on one side.The dead skeletons revived, and the sleeping giant woke up again—it picked up the halberd, and a red light flashed under the helmet.And its inorganic sight swept over Fireproof Girl, Shirtel and the others, as if it had completed some verification and identification, and turned a blind eye to them.

It walked to the middle of the sacrificial square with heavy steps, and stopped moving.

So the fire prevention girl bowed slightly to Shirtel.

"Please forgive me, miss. I promised its fate on your behalf. If you allow it, please come here to take away its polluted soul when you decide to go to the primordial furnace."

Shirtel nodded, she didn't have any objections to this kind of thing - Guda's obsession was like this, and it was his honor and wish to return to the first fire.

"Then we still need to deal with a small matter at the end—" The fire prevention girl turned around and looked at Yelena, who was standing aside and had gotten used to the living corpses and the curse on them.

"Miss Yelena, have you ever teleported before?"

Yelena looked at her with a dazed expression.

"I understand." The fire prevention woman nodded. "Next, I will take the young lady and your companions to teleport to the vicinity of King Xin who is the closest to the sacrificial site. Please also take care of your companions, because the teleportation rituals are for living people who have not experienced them... ...not very friendly."

And the next moment, a circle of golden miraculous light covered the ankles of the three of them.Before Yelena could ask, 'What does it mean to be unfriendly? ' With this sentence, the burst of light covered everything here.

M78 Nebula 756365104

The light faded away, and the human form disappeared without a trace.

And tens of seconds later, on the mountains and hills around the Chuanhuo Sacrificial Site, more than one soul power erupted one after another.

They are messengers, they travel in all directions.

They announced to the world the changes that took place in the sacrificial field.

..............................

Stuart opened his eyes.

She felt the fire-proof woman push herself, and she still remembered what the fire-proof woman had just said to herself.

So she subconsciously opened her arms, lost her balance due to the teleportation, and the pale Yelena fell into her arms.

The girl who might have been able to stand on her own would probably no longer have any strength.But when the warm and fragrant nephrite was in his arms, what caught his eyes was a lush forest.

She saw many ceremonial columns compounded with crosses and crescent moons, and heard the pattering in the forest.And from a distance, the howling of wolves could be heard tearing the sky.

wolf howling.

The sound of a wolf is directional.

The wolf noticed them, just as she had seen the wolf's voice the instant it sounded.

"This is Farland's woods, miss," the fire lady explained to her.

"There are very few salary kings in Fran, and the most famous one, or that group, is the warrior queue known by the world as the undead team—if there is no accident, they are the first ones who are lucky enough to meet you. salary king."

Section [-]: The Riddler Get Out of Terra!

Strictly speaking, this was a bit beyond Miss Shrter's plans.

Although she had known for a long time that there was a miracle of moving space in the world view of Dark Souls III, she never expected that she would be moved from the fire-passing sacrificial field to the forest of Faran in one step.

——In the game of the previous world, Emma, ​​the priest outside the high wall, can move the ashes from the capital of crime or Anor Londe directly back to Lothric.And the fireproof woman in front of me has a complicated background, and it is not unimaginable to have similar powers.

—but it was too fast.It was too soon for me, for Yelena, and for the world.Because right now... I...

She raised her head and looked into the depths of the forest.The induction between the soldiers made her aware of at least forty auras as powerful as hers at the moment.That must be the general who will wake up, and under the blessing of the ceremony, the Salary King Undead Team has returned to its full strength.Besides them, there is another beastly will entrenched in this forest.

Guardian of the Farlan, an ancient giant wolf.Although there is no corresponding performance in the game.But according to the tradition of "Sharing the Wolf's Blood and Swearing" by the Flan Undead Squad and their Flan swordsmanship that was born out of hunting wolves.It is enough to prove that the old wolf who can only lie on his stomach to accept tributes in the game is at least as good as the salary king in terms of specifications!

And bringing these elements together into one, the final conclusion becomes clear.

Shirtle, lost in thought.

--ok I admit it.I can't beat it.At least not now.

The girl's heart was a little tangled—because even in the radical strategy she conceived when she came over last time.She also planned the route well, planning to develop a wave in low-level areas like the high wall first, and then go to open the boss!But what the hell is the fireproof girl doing?Do you really think of her as a god of war?But even if I was really a god of war in the past, my level has already dropped out due to the long years in the initial furnace!

A little embarrassing.

But the embarrassment is not without reason.

After all, Fireproof Girl's previous bragging made her almost worship Shier Teer as a real world-extinguishing fire giant.So in her eyes, as a professional tool person, she should be invincible and omnipotent, who can decide the present and future of this world with just a breath.Even if she has personally felt the flames in her body, she will probably think that she is hiding her strength or her own eyesight is shallow!

Gan!

How can it end like this! ?

Shirtel's facial expression was a little stiff.It was inevitable that she felt a little bit of resentment towards the fire-proof girl in her heart, but she immediately snuffed it out in the bud—she could sense the expectation and admiration under the fire-proof girl's goggles.She could feel the surprise and curiosity in the eyes of Yelena who had barely recovered - she felt that she was being paid attention to, and strangely, she didn't want to disappoint this attention.

If it was in the past, even if it was yesterday.She will bluntly say that she can't beat it, and then go to the low-level area to re-grow monsters and level up to deal with all problems.But now...

just now……

——It’s so strange, why does it make me feel a little bit unwilling to bluntly give up at this time?
