Who designed this underworld dungeon?

"Brother, do you want to buy some beast pills?"

On the busy streets of Bed City, a lazy voice came into the ears of Dar who was relaxing.

Who, calling me?

"Yes, it's you."

He turned his head and saw the black-haired manager of the store called Mareda Magic Props Store on the street waving at him.

Beast pills? Something I haven't heard of. Is he selling weird props again?

Dar shook his head and didn't intend to pay attention. When he thought about challenging the Undead Team with all his strength tomorrow, he couldn't sleep tonight and could only walk out to relax.

I didn't expect that I could be sold something when I was taking a walk. This is really...I'd better go back quickly. I won't buy anything this person says.

"It is said that the Undead Team likes to take this kind of small pills." The manager added.

"!?"

When he came to his senses, Dar was still standing on the street, but he was holding a bulging paper bag in his arms, which was full of monster blood pills referred to as "beast pills".

"What am I doing?" His expression twitched, and he couldn't help but start thinking about what he had just done.

It seemed that the store manager named Mareda told him that these beast pills were the favorite of the Undead Squad fighters, and that taking one pill during the battle would greatly increase their combat effectiveness.

He impulsively bought all the beast pills in the store! ?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but pound his chest, feeling heartbroken for the coins that just flowed out of his fingers.

I hope these beast pills really have the effect that the store manager boasted, if not, he must come back to ask for an explanation.

However, the biggest expense just now was not the beast pills, but something else.

"I heard that you are the Farran Guards, are you going to challenge the Undead Squad? If so, I have a suggestion."

"Do you want to try using thunder? You see, the Undead Squad is wearing armor, right? Armor can conduct electricity, maybe their weakness is thunder and lightning?"

"Of course, I'm just guessing. After all, I'm powerless, so I can only guess by looking at the video of the Undead Squad."

The manager's words aroused Dal's thinking, and he eventually spent a lot of money to buy a lot of thunder grease that can attach thunder and lightning to weapons from the store.

It must be said that this manager named Mareda really grasped Dal's consumer psychology perfectly.

Looking at Dal who was going away, Mareda - or Gong Qiying smiled and waved at his back.

He eavesdropped on the conversation between Gapar and Stellan, so he also knew that the Farran Guards were going to launch a crusade against the Undead Squad in the near future.

His evaluation of this matter was three words: pretty good.

If you look at this matter purely from the perspective of a dungeon operator, you should hope that people will never be able to defeat the Undead Team and always get gold coins there, so that the dungeon can bring profits.

But in fact, this idea itself will have some results at the beginning, but it is no longer working now.

As for the reason, it is because Gong Qiying noticed one thing-the number of people challenging the Fran Undead Team suddenly dropped sharply one day, and then never rose again.

The number of people challenging the Undead Team every day is no longer as many as those challenging the several bosses in the Great Tomb!

Gong Qiying thought about why this problem occurred for a long time, and then he was awakened by a sentence when he was looking for adventurers in the tavern to do an investigation.

"Although the story of the Undead Team is very touching, there is no need for me to fight a battle where there is no possibility of victory, right?"

Yes, how can the story alone attract people to fight to the death with the Undead Team? If the adventurer can't beat it, he really won't fight.

If this continues, the Undead Team will sit on the bench.

Change, must change, first of all, let people see the hope of victory, and have a first kill of the Fran Undead Team.

But it can't be too cheap and lose the dignity of the Undead Team, so the first kill team must look very luxurious, just like the combination of the Sword Master and the Fran Guard.

And after this first kill, some other means are needed to continue to attract adventurers.

Regarding this, Gong Qiying has some preliminary ideas, which requires the use of [Authority: Balance of Strength and Weakness]. After the first kill, other adventurers may face the Undead Team with adjusted strength when they challenge.

But the strength of the Undead Team cannot be reduced too low, and the final lower limit is C+.

In this way, people can see some hope, but it is foreseeable that many people still can't beat it. What should I do?

"If you can't beat it, you can't beat it. I can force you to fight."

It doesn't matter if you can't beat it. It's impossible for adventurers to lose half of their health or one-third of their health.

As long as the goal set by Gong Qiying can be achieved, even if the adventurer fails in the challenge and doesn't get the reward, he can unlock new things, such as the reward that he must get at the risk of his life, and a new map where the reward is located.

It is the map between the Fortress of Farran and Irithyll in the Frost Valley -

Kasas Underground Cemetery.

It will be an extension of the story of the Undead Corps and the Abyss, and complement the story line currently shown in the Sean Underground City.

After a long time of thinking, Gong Qiying felt that the story shown in the underground city should look more linear. The story line of the Magic Academy is his attempt to put the story there clearly from beginning to end in a place where adventurers can easily see it, so that others can sort out the relationship and it is also convenient for his own brain.

And the "fight against the abyss" that is currently shown by Fortress Fran and Artorius, and which adventurers are most interested in, is the plot that he has considered as the main line.

In addition to the fact that the Abyss has the "Demons" to blame in reality.

In fact, the content related to the Abyss is also completely throughout "Dark Souls". Almost every scene in the game can be pulled out of a plot related to the Abyss.

But the Demons can't bear such a big pot, maybe they can be given a "residue of the Abyss"?

Now that I think about it, it was great that he chose to start from Fort Fran at the beginning, and the new maps to be added later are clear at a glance.

Fort Fran, the underground cemetery of Kassus, Irithyll in the Frigid Valley, and Anor Londo are completely the same scenes.

When you arrive at the Frigid Valley, the main storyline can be turned into the Fire, and Soul One and Soul Two can be connected.

From the Abyss to the Fire of Saving the World, successors sacrifice themselves to save the world. This is probably more immersive than fighting in the Abyss.

When the story of passing on the fire comes to an end in the future, Gong Qiying will use his ability to make up stories, add a golden tree and a dream together, and then sew in some things outside the soul system.

It is not accurate to say that the world view is integrated. Each world view is independent, but he will leave some clues that may be connected, allowing people to imagine it themselves.

And outside the main line, some small side lines can be added occasionally, such as the mad dragon and dragon hunter in the Spike Mountain.

"This will be a big project."

Gong Qiying stretched his waist. The implementation of such a big project is not urgent. At present, the most worthy of his attention is tomorrow's battle.

He has prepared the image stone, looking forward to the wonderful performance of all adventurers.

——————————

The next day.

"Click, click"

The boots stepped on the sticky and dirty swamp, making a faint sound.

Dal looked up at the sky. The Fran Fortress was never as sunny as the forest area. The sky was always gray and looked very depressing. I don't know when the sun will come out.

"Are you nervous?" Gapar's voice came from the side.

Dal shook his head, his face was normal, and only he knew whether he was nervous or not.

Ten people and eight wolves walked in the Fran Fortress. Except for Gapar, they were all Fran guards. The atmosphere was neither low nor high. They had walked this road countless times and fought with the leaders here countless times. Even if they were thinking of a decisive battle this time, it was difficult to mobilize their emotions.

When the number of people entering the dungeon is less than ten, a war pet like a wolf will occupy the position of one person. If there are ten people, the war pet can enter the dungeon, but the number cannot exceed the number of adventurers.

These giant wolves who also got wolf blood also realized what they were going to do today. They tried to raise their heads, but they couldn't lift them because of the invisible pressure.

"Gurgle."

At this time, a loud swallowing sound came from the team, and it would come again every few minutes, louder than the gurgling sound of the curse frog.

"Hey, Wesker, please be a little more restrained. I know you are nervous." Cran poked the big man Wesker beside him.

"I, I can't help it. I am too nervous." Wesker burped again while talking, and his cowardly look formed a big contrast with the big man.

"You are really, hey, you made me nervous." Cran's palms were full of sweat, and so was the armor.

The performance of the two of them was relatively good, while the others were even nervous and tense, and they didn't even say a word.

Seeing this scene, Dahl could only sigh in his heart and blame himself in his heart.

He gave a mobilization speech last night, but it seemed that he spoke too harshly, which made everyone feel psychological pressure for today's battle.

I still need to learn a lot about how to lead a team.

He clapped his hands and said:

"Listen to me, I know I may have put pressure on you yesterday, but."

Gapar looked at him from the side, his mouth corners raised a little, as if he was watching his own child grow up slowly.

When ordinary adventurer teams are preparing to challenge powerful bosses, they often make a big fuss to increase popularity, but Dahl did not do so. He and the Fran guards did not reveal any information about the upcoming battle with the Undead Team. Even when entering the dungeon this time, they just stepped into the portal silently. In his original words:

"The farewell of the hero does not need to be noisy, just enough respect."

This is really well said. Gapar felt that he couldn't say it. He is worthy of being Dahl who likes the Undead Team the most.

If possible, I, an old man, should stay out of the limelight in this decisive battle and give more stage to the young people.

"Oh oh oh!"

At this moment, the Fran guards suddenly shouted excitedly, which seemed to sweep away the depressing atmosphere.

What did Dal say? Why did everyone suddenly become energetic?

Looking at this passionate scene, Japar couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Everyone quickened their pace, and the roads here were as familiar as going home.

Kill monsters, extinguish the beacon fire, open the wolf blood road, worship the old wolf of Fran, and then.

"Bang, bang--"

Behind the door of the Fran Fortress, there was another collision of steel and iron. The Fran Undead Team was also carrying out a long "self-destruction" today, cleaning up the companions eroded by the abyss.

When will this endless battle end?

Dale stroked the lines on the gate and looked back at everyone.

Gapar held the Lianxing Sword and gave him a thumbs up with his free hand.

The wolves raised their heads, and their thick hair fluttered in the wind, as if burning.

Wesker swallowed again, but the sound was much quieter. Cran took off his glasses and let out a sigh. Some people took a deep breath, some rubbed their hands, and some bit their lips.

But fear did not appear on anyone's face at all!

Very good!

Dale rarely showed a clear smile, and it could even be said that this smile was too strong and a little hideous. He supported the gate with both hands. When the sound of fighting inside the gate subsided——

"Go!"

The gate of the Fran Fortress was wide open, and the dark clouds happened to let go of the sun at this moment, and the rare sunlight shone on the last member of the Undead Team.

He put down the body of the team member and turned to look at the gate, perhaps wanting to remember the warmth of the sun.

But what was reflected in his eyes was a group of figures saluting in the sun!

The figures under the light were blurred, and in a trance, the figures saluting the Undead Team looked like the real Undead Team, when they had not yet passed on the fire and were conquering the abyss.

The movements of the Fran Undead Team paused, and then he also showed the same respect to the newcomers.

"Ah--"

A long wolf howl sounded from the fortress, followed by the collision between iron and iron, blood and blood, and soul and soul!

The cold light flashed from the blade, and the Undead Team's stab went straight to Wesker, who quickly raised his shield to resist.

But the strong wind passed in front of him, and with the sound of metal and iron clashing, Gapar suddenly appeared in front of him and steadily pressed down the Fran Great Sword.

"Ping Ping Ping!"

That was a speed that the human eye could not react to at all. How many swords did the Sword Saint and the Undead Team slash in an instant? It was unclear, but it was known that the sword wind blew Wesker away in an instant, and their slashing continued!

Pressure came from behind the Undead Squad, and the giant wolf, werewolf, and Fran Guard attacked together!

"Bang——"

The unprecedented force swept away the Lianxing Sword, and the Undead Squad turned around and slashed at the latecomer in an instant with a move that was difficult for the human body to make. This move would either kill or injure anyone.

There was another crisp sound, and his movement paused for a moment. The greatsword was blocked?

It was blocked by the three Fran Guards together!

"Ahhh!" Wesker and others roared, bursting with power together to overturn it, but after the initial surprise, the Undead Squad only turned over and kicked out, causing the three people to fall and knock down the giant wolf behind them.

The Sword Saint and Dahl stepped forward together and attacked on both sides at the same time.

"Dang!"

The dagger moved slightly, and Dahl's door was suddenly wide open. Even though he was prepared, he was still bounced back by the Undead Squad!

But the execution did not happen, because the Undead Squad turned to fight with Gapar, and the swords and shadows did not allow anyone to get close!

The giant wolf knocked Dal, who was in a state of rigidity, aside. He immediately came to his senses, hammered the ground, and rushed forward again with gritted teeth.

The blue Fran short arrow shot out from behind him. Three Fran guards who specialized in magic were riding giant wolves and shuttling around in the field. The Undead Team, who were busy fighting the Sword Saint, had no time to dodge and let the magic hit them.

So his movements inevitably became stiff, and the others seized the opportunity to rush forward to fight, and the scene was a chaotic battle again.

The strength of the Undead Team was quite strong. They remained calm and composed in a one-on-many situation. The only one who could fight him head-on was Gapar, and the others were on the verge of life and death.

But everyone's combined strength also exceeded the intensity of any battle with adventurers that the Undead Team had experienced before.

Before ten minutes had passed, he had already started the "second stage".

The greatsword swept across, and the siege was immediately resolved. Some people were even cut in the chest, and the surging blood gushed out.

"It's a strong enemy indeed."

Gapar tore off his shirt. Who was the last opponent of this level he encountered? The sword demon from the demon clan, or the subhuman sword saint from the Great Tomb? But they all seemed to be inferior to the Undead Team.

He took the posture of "Ongi's Lianxing", and it seemed that he was going to activate the Lianxing Sword, but at this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, and a new force broke into the battlefield.

A member of the Undead Team suddenly stood up, roaring like a beast, his eyes bloodshot, and he didn't even look at the people present, and rushed straight to the Undead Team.

He was eroded by the abyss!

The Undead Team immediately gave up the battle with the Fran guards and turned to deal with their eroded and crazy companions, and even kicked Clan, who was lying on the ground, out of the range that might be affected by the battle.

Good opportunity, a bright good opportunity, as long as they took advantage of this time to attack the Undead Team, they could-

Gong Qiying behind the crystal ball suddenly frowned, because he found that Gapar and Dal did not move.

They stayed away from the battlefield between the Undead Teams. Some took medicine, some healed their wounds, but no one took this opportunity to attack the Undead Team. Even the three magicians were helping the Undead Team to attack the Madman.

At this moment, Gong Qiying's impression of the adventurer was refreshed.

".Interesting."

He waved his hand, and the Madman's movements paused. Then he was pierced through the chest by the Undead Team and fell to the ground again.

The battle between the adventurer and the Undead Team continued. Gong Qiying, who was observing them, restrained his smile and turned to a serious and solemn face. He no longer observed with the mentality of a creator, but witnessed it as a witness.

These people regard the stories he brought as spirituality, even faith, and showed a noble spirit, so it would be rude for him to maintain his previous attitude.

A bit middle-class? Maybe, but if he were to describe these adventurers, he would call it true temperament, call it

romantic!

"Drink ah ah ah!"

At this moment, Gapar had mobilized all his strength, and violent winds, sparks, thunder, and everything that might appear in the battle broke out!

The present moment was obviously the most critical moment. When the sword master was negligent and was about to be hit, he instantly activated his combat skills and turned into stars that flashed into the sky. Darr led the crowd up, and the combined efforts of everyone also It can create an offensive that is no less powerful than that of the Sword Master.

The weapons of the Farlan guards were wrapped with thunder and lightning, but they still followed the advice of a certain store manager. It turned out that this advice was really effective.

The weakness of the undead team is showing. His physique - or resilience is too weak compared to beings of the same strength. When everyone attacks together and all magic and weapons attack, he will inevitably be injured, and the damage will accumulate. It will also become stiff to a certain extent.

At a disadvantage, the Immortal Team is in a bad situation.

But so what, strength is the reason to be king.

Regardless of the injury, he swung the sword sharply, causing the Farlan guards to shed blood while also clearing the surrounding environment for himself.

His fighting style became more and more wild, his fighting posture was chic and unpredictable, like a mad wolf.

The first deceased appeared, followed by the second, and then the third

The wild figure is a posture that makes the enemy timid.

The sword master put out all his strength and tried his best to block it, but the others also tried their best to protect themselves in this battle of strong men.

Countless scars appeared on the body of the undead team, but he ignored it and cut off the enemy's weapons and body like a berserker!

Corpse pieces and blood were spinning and flying in front of the huge force!

Gapar also tried his best, and the slash towards the full moon appeared again!

The sword light surged and the strong wind exploded!

The remains of the adventurers were blown around and turned into ashes in the air before returning to the bonfire. Those who were still alive had their throats cut by the knife-like wind blade.

This scene is as oppressive and spectacular as the falling full moon!

Magic has the magnificence of magic, and the Undead Team has its own wolf blood and wildness!

When the sixth dead man fell, the undead team inserted the Farlan sword into the ground and let out a tired gasp.

At this moment, his body is covered with scars. If you look carefully, you can find that most of them are magic-laden wounds left by the Star Sword, and only a small number of them are from the Flan guards.

"Are you finally exhausted?"

Gapar's left arm was drooping, obviously broken, and he could no longer wield the weapon. Not even the demihuman sword master had given him such an injury.

Even when he faced the "Full Moon Queen" in the academy, except for the full moon move, the queen's other moves never caused him serious injury!

He was very satisfied with this battle!

The "Crescent Celestial Chong" he had sent out, which cut off one-sixth of the health bar of "Full Moon Queen", hit the undead team three times here, and was not resisted every time.

You must know that the queen has a high amount of magic resistance, so the sword energy that originally cut off one-third of the health bar was neutralized by most of the power. The undead team does not have that kind of treatment.

What he received was a complete slash without any weakening!

Gapar's right hand holding the sword was also trembling. Three times of full sword energy was the limit. He couldn't swing the sword in a short time. If the undead team stood up again, he would have no ability to resist.

There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world. He fully understood the meaning of this sentence from today's battle.

I.have to continue to exercise.

Dar stood up with a big sword. He was already covered in blood, with large and small wounds all over his body. An ordinary person would have been dead.

But he still stood up with his will and walked towards the undead team.

This was the first time he had seen the Immortal Team forced into such a situation. This was an opportunity he really couldn't let go.

The Undead also stood up as Dahl approached.

Both parties were the only ones still able to move. At this moment, Gapal shouted:

"Come on."

"Come on ah ah ah!"

Dar's face was ferocious, and his hands that were about to be broken tightly grasped the Farlan sword and launched the final charge.

The Frank Immortal Team also made the same move. At this moment, any technique is useless, and the competition is pure mental power!

The Flan guards who fell to the ground but were still alive also shouted at this moment, and the giant wolves howled in unison.

"Pfft——"

The sound of steel penetrating flesh.

Dar's knees softened, he staggered forward a few steps, and suddenly fell to his knees. The flange sword that penetrated his chest supported him from falling, but he was unable to stand up.

The shouts of the crowd suddenly disappeared.

Me, did I succeed?

Dar wanted to turn around to confirm the situation, but he couldn't. His hands and feet were losing temperature rapidly, and his eyelids couldn't stop trembling.

But at this moment, the same sound of falling to the ground came from behind, and everyone cheered.

Don't tell me!

Dar's eyes widened, and he clenched his teeth. The incomplete teeth mixed with internal organs fragments and blood came down from the corners of his mouth.

There is no movement of the undead team behind him, which means...

We won!

"Ho, ho"

Dar wanted to make some noise, but his throat was like a broken bellows, and he could only make incomplete gasps.

He could feel a strong and hot soul rushing towards him. This was a powerful soul being absorbed by him. Since entering the Sen Dungeon, he had never received such a powerful soul.

Joy, but when his eyes touched the members of the Undead Team on the ground, tears flowed down, washing his dusty face.

The Fran Undead Team had a very special meaning to him. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was reborn. He had dreamed of joining the Undead Team countless times in his dreams.

And now, with the help of Gapar, they can finally help the Undead Team and bring him peace.

Even if he will appear in this dungeon again, a moment of peace is peace.

When will Dal be able to do this alone?

"No more fighting."

He let out a long breath, the last obsession ended, and his life was quickly lost.

But in a trance, he seemed to see blood floating in front of him.

Floating?

His consciousness was instantly awake, but he found that the floating blood did not come from him, but from the members of the Undead Team who fell on the ground.

The wolf blood was attracted by some kind of force and gathered behind him. The only person he could think of who was qualified to attract the blood was——

"Boom——"

A raging fire ignited behind him.

Dal seemed to be in a furnace.

The adventurers cannot defeat the Cinder King, and they don't need to do so. The battle will end in the next chapter.
