Chapter 8: The Nameless Sun Knight!
The pay-givers refuse to spread the fire?
The information Su Ziyu obtained from Sister Fried's mouth was very useful, and after eliminating the other party's desire to fight, he extracted a lot of useful information from Sister Fried's mouth.
However, it also has to do with Sister Fried's own resistance to spreading fire.
In fact, not only are many people disappointed with the fire ritual, but even some of the awakened undead are also very puzzled, they don't know if this fire rituals will continue, because even if this fire rituals are successful, it will not be long before the world will be corrupted again. From the time of the Sun King Gwen to the present, the number of living people in this world has been decreasing, the undead plague has been everywhere, and in some places there are only the undead who have lost their minds.
It's a simple truth.
- Spreading fire can't save the world!
Those salary kings who refuse to pass on the fire are considered a potential ally to Su Ziyu, but it is estimated that there are only two princes of Lothric who are still in normal sanity, and the other salary kings are most likely crazy or out of control.
Of course, Sister Fred revealed more than that, and she also told Su Ziyu something about the fire sacrifice ground.
She said that the dungeon below the fire festival was full of the corpses of the fire-fighting woman.
Sister Frede didn't remember anything too long, and when she woke up, she felt as if the fire altar had changed, and there was an aura of unease and fear in it.
That's right.
Sister Fred is from Longor, and she and her two sisters are the founders of the Dark Church.
Originally, her mission was to become the Spirit King of Longrault, but Sister Fred was tired of all this, and she didn't want to spread the fire anymore, nor did she want to be the Spirit King of Longall anymore.
"And what do you want to do?" Su Ziyu sat by the campfire and asked curiously.
At this time, Sister Fred seems to have opened up a little, perhaps because she has not talked to anyone for too long.
It's hard to meet even a normal person in this cheating world, not only Su Ziyu can't find anyone to talk to, but even the aborigines usually find it difficult to meet many sane people. The royal city of Lothric is basically full of geistes, and when Sister Fride went to explore there, she also encountered a terrible enemy with dual swords, which seemed to be called 'Dancer', and Sister Fried, who suffered a little after a fight, was forced to retreat by the enemy.
The undead also have a special 'emberfire state'.
The so-called embers are the flames left by some powerful heroes, and if Sister Fred activates the embers, her strength will have an explosive increase, but unfortunately she has no embers on her body at present.
Her strength had not yet fully recovered, and in her heyday, Sister Fride had another rather terrifying power of fire.
"What do I want to do?" Sister Frede stared at the bonfire in front of her, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, her expression was a little dazed, and she muttered, "I probably want to find a quiet place." ”
"Stay quiet."
"Until the flames of this world are completely extinguished."
Is that what you want to do?
Su Ziyu's expression was a little confused, and translated Sister Friede's words, that is, she just wants to find a quiet place to stay all the time, whether there is anything or not, you don't bother her, even if the flame goes out and the end of the world.
She just wants to be a homebody quietly.
"And what's next for you?" Su Ziyu asked curiously.
Sister Fried's expression became more and more confused, her eyes looked at the bonfire in front of her with a slight distraction, and she frowned and thought for a while, and then hesitated a little: "I once seemed to have heard of a cold and quiet world in the painting called Eiredel. ”
"I don't know what's going on inside, though."
"But I kind of want to go there."
The world in the picture?
Is it a half-plane unique to this world?
Do you want to go to a painting and stay quietly? Is there anything else to pursue?
Su Ziyu now understands Sister Fridde's original thoughts, she is the ember who has been awakened, and her mission is to complete the fire transmission ritual. That's why she came to challenge Su Ziyu, and even confronted it head-on in a way that was close to death. If Sister Fred had chosen to sneak attack, with her astonishing speed and powerful stealth ability, Su Ziyu might not have won so easily. She died once at the hands of Su Ziyu, which means that she has fulfilled her mission. However, after dying once, her desire to fight also began to be seriously weakened, and she was still hesitant to pass on the fire, but now it seems that she has completely given up.
She had no desire to fight at all.
Su Ziyu didn't know that there was a more powerful one in the Fire Transmission Sacrifice Ground, and Hawkwood from Fran was now in the Fire Transmission Sacrifice Ground after he died once, and it seemed that he wanted to stay in it until he died, and he just didn't go out anyway.
Alas.
It's not easy to wake up the ashes.
Su Ziyu looked at Sister Fred with a confused expression in front of her, and asked tentatively, "If you don't have anything to do, are you interested in being my guide?" ”
"I can pay you a certain amount."
Suziyu is still too unfamiliar with this world.
It was hard to completely eliminate Sister Fried's hostility, so naturally it was necessary to make good use of it, and it was much better to have someone to lead the way than for him to wander around alone.
"Wizard?" As if coming to her senses, Sister Fred muttered, "I am the ember without fire. ”
"You're the Salary King."
"Aren't you afraid that I will plot against you behind my back?"
Su Ziyu looked at Sister Fride in front of her, thought about it very seriously, and said, "Don't be afraid. ”
He was really not afraid.
Because Su Ziyu has not yet used the power of time acceleration, even if Sister Fred wants to plot against him, Su Ziyu has enough time to deal with it. Besides, he still believes in the perception brought by his own spirituality, and the other party's breath of wanting nothing and just wanting to find a place to stay quietly can't deceive people.
"Where do you want to go?" Sister Fred looked up at Su Ziyu curiously and asked, "Fire Transmission Sacrifice Ground?" ”
"Or do you want to find another pay-payer?"
"A lot of them have gone crazy. If you go to them, you'll probably be devoured by them. ”
There are not many people who still retain their sanity in the salary king.
Because of the characteristics of this plane, ordinary people can also absorb soul power, and as for the undead and the salary king, they are even more powerful, they can directly devour the souls of others.
You will definitely not go to the fire sacrifice ground.
Sister Fred said that there was an aura of fear that made her feel terrified, and that Suziyu estimated that it was most likely a source of pollution, and that there was no need to run directly to the enemy's lair now. Moreover, Sister Fride also said that the corpses of the fireproof women were all under the fire sacrifice ground, which made Su Ziyu feel a hint of danger, and his intuition and spirituality told him that there was great danger there.
"I want to go to the city of Lothric." Su Ziyu thought about it very seriously.
Let's take a look at the world's largest kingdom first, and the only people who are most likely to communicate with each other are the two princes of Lothric, and there may be a possibility of cooperation between them.
This time, Suziyu is not going to save the world.
The primary task of the Space-Time Watcher system is not to save the world, but to clean up the pollution of this world, and if necessary, the Space-Time Watcher even needs to destroy and purify a world so that the life of this world can be restarted.
Seriously.
Su Ziyu felt that this world was hopeless.
Rather than continue to linger, it is better to directly let the age of fire end and welcome the arrival of the next era.
This moment.
The data flow in Su Ziyu's mind changed, and then some information prompts emerged.
"The current plane has entered a stage of decay."
"Activate the Space-Time Watcher's Autonomous Response Mode! …… The main quest has been released! ……”
"Main quest 1: End the fire ritual, extinguish the initial fire, and usher in the Dark Age."
"Quest Rewards: Permission Level Increase, Lightning Divinity Advancement, Divinity Points Drop."
"Main quest 2: Keep the flame of life alive, find a shelter, and ensure that there is life in the current plane to survive the long dark ages and welcome the new era."
"Task rewards: Permission level increase, plane law analysis, gift of the current plane."
The main quest has been triggered.
Different from the main quests of other worlds, the main quest released by the space-time watcher system this time is actually to end an era, extinguish the initial fire of this world, and welcome the next dark age.
The second main quest is a bit more interesting.
Suziyu needs to find a shelter to help a part of this world survive the Dark Ages and preserve the spark of life.
This is for him to put an end to all this with his own hands!
Just as Su Ziyu was thinking about the main quest this time, Sister Fred also pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "The city of Lothric?" I can take you there. ”
"But I wouldn't advise you to provoke that dancer."
"She's amazing!"
"I must have been a Protoss before! …… It's going to be very dangerous to face her! ……”
Protoss?
Su Ziyu was not worried about the danger, he was more concerned about whether the other party's divinity value had dropped.
There are gods in this world.
There is a high probability that many of the enemies here have divine values, and the enemies encountered by Su Ziyu are not very strong at present, but there should be many strong people in this plane, and the strength shown by some salary kings in rumors may be stronger than Su Ziyu.
Even if it is Sister Fride in front of her, if she enters the 'ember state', the probability of Su Ziyu winning will be greatly reduced.
The embers can increase the combat power of the undead by about 30% to 50%.
If it's Sister Frid, she can increase by more than 100% when she enters the ember state, because in that state she can control the power of both ice and black fire, which is the real qualification to become the 'King of the Spirits of Longel'.
"Let's go, then." Su Ziyu stood up and said.
Goddess Friedxiu looked at Su Ziyu softly, and suddenly blinked her eyes and asked, "What about the reward?" ”
"You said you would pay me."
Immortals are not desireless.
Remuneration?
They don't even want to eat, so it's useless to give money, right?
Su Ziyu thought for a while and asked tentatively, "How about giving you a glass of wine every day?" This wine is unique in the world! ”
Wine?
Sister Fride tilted her head and thought about it for a moment, as if she was reminiscing about the taste of the first fairy brew, then nodded lightly and stood up and said, "Yes." ”
The two sides successfully reached an agreement.
Very good.
The souls dropped by Sister Fride were enough to brew a lot of immortal brew, and Su Ziyu had no problem hiring her for a month or two.
This wave is not a loss.
Sonorous.
Sister Fried put her hand directly into the bonfire and pulled out the strange spiral sword, which Su Ziyu noticed as soon as the sword began, but it was not a strange thing, but it was like an ordinary ritual object, and it was slightly broken off from it. After Sister Fride pulled it out, the spiral sword disappeared, and the bonfire in front of her gradually went out, and Su Ziyu could feel a special flame power dissipate into the air.
"Let's go."
"If you go to the royal city of Los Rick from here, it will take you a day." Sister Fried said softly.
After completely giving up the transmission of fire, this cultivator seemed to be a lot more relaxed.
Su Ziyu raised his hand and made a gesture to lead the way, and then followed behind Sister Frid, walking in the direction of the city of Lothric.
He actually wanted to ask the other party if it would be uncomfortable to walk barefoot?
However, after noticing that the other party's bare feet would not even get dust, he simply closed his mouth, which must be some kind of supernatural ability.
Fire Sacrifice Ground.
Hawkwood looked at the tall and burly knight in front of him, his expression was slightly surprised, and muttered, "Have they even woken up the Sun Knight?" ”
Praise the sun!
There is only one person in this world who will greet him in this way, and that is the Sun Knight.
The Sun Knight was active in the early days of the Age of Fire, and in a way, the ember in front of him should be an old antique.
Wrong.
Hawkwood felt the pressure brought by the other party, as well as the soul power in his body, and said to himself, "This is not an ordinary ember. ”
"This should be a certain salary king in history!"
Compared to the first time he faced Sister Fried, Hawkwood was a little more reserved, and only said in a slightly depressed and casual voice, "Are you also going to find the unknown salary king?" ”
The other party's expression was stunned for a moment, then he looked up and asked suspiciously: "Huh? ”
"Are there six pay-kings this time?"
"I'm ...... Not...... I seem to have forgotten my name! …… Never mind...... You can call me the Nameless Knight of the Sun......"
"I wanted to ask if you'd be interested in coming with me to defeat those Salary Kings! ……”
"Praise the sun! ……”
"The continuation of the flame requires our strength! ……”
Challenge the salary king?
Hawkwood shook his head very resolutely, and said without hesitation: "No!" ”
I'm not going to kill me.
I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to stay honestly in the fire sacrifice ground, which is quiet and safe, and there is a beautiful firefighter girl next to her, and she can taunt the other embers if she has nothing to do, telling them that it is impossible to defeat the Salary King, and this is the only way to barely maintain their lives.
