Compared to other Salary Kings, Rudos may be the only One who looks like an ordinary person, and before becoming a Salary King, he was just an ordinary alchemist.

Refining one's own soul is taboo in this world, and people are afraid of this power, even for ordinary soul alchemists, but Rudos is the best in this way, surpassing everyone in this forbidden spell, reaching the point where he can almost infinitely absorb souls to strengthen himself.

But because of this ability, he was hated and feared, and because of this, he was exiled from his homeland, and he could no longer even call himself by the name of his motherland. In this world, it is a pride from the depths of the soul to put one's homeland before its name, and for Rudos, such a punishment may be more cruel than death.

A person who has great power but does not have the corresponding mentality often becomes a tragedy, either lost in power and unable to extricate himself, or immersed in the mistakes he has made.

Rudolphus was the latter, he was troubled by the people he had killed, and perhaps his close friends, and even in his sleep, he felt deeply guilty and guilty.

Therefore, he never took the power he possessed for granted, but came to the conclusion that the power obtained by plundering others would eventually be repaid by others, which became the reason for him to spread the fire.

With this guilt, Rudolphs became the salary king, and he longed for redemption and recognition through such actions.

"Alas, can you give an old man the least respect."

After hearing Zhang Lin say that everyone who becomes the salary king is the strongest person in their era, Feng Yan ran to Ludaos to ask for a challenge, but when she saw the other party's broken leg, she looked at her master with the eyes of you are teasing me.

However, Rudolph didn't feel offended, and after confirming that Zhang Lin and the others had really eliminated Eldridge, he behaved like an ordinary old man.

If it weren't for the crooked crown on his head, Rudos wouldn't look like a king at all, with a dusty robe, a scrawny body, and of course, the Salary King is not a king who needs to be worshipped, as long as the strength is enough, even an ogre monster like Eldridge can become a salary king.

"Grandpa, why are your legs like this?"

Alice crouched beside Rudos with her cheeks on a curious look, looking at each other with sparkling eyes.

"It's been a long time coming......"

Perhaps infected by the youthful vitality of little Lori, Ludos was silent for a while and then told the story that he was about to forget.

Zhang Lin smiled, turned around and walked towards the chief priest who was sitting in the corridor inside the sacrificial ground.

The last time I came to the sacrificial ground, there was only one fireproof woman, but at this time, there were not only the former salary king Rudos, the chief priest of Losric, but also the burly man who tirelessly kept beating the iron felt in the depths of the sacrificial ground.

At this time, Master Merlin was standing in front of the main priest, not knowing what he was saying.

"I know what you say may be true, but I really don't know you." The Priest of Ima looked at the old mage in front of him with some helplessness.

"Then we can get to know each other again."

"Okay, okay, I know you, what a persistent person."

"Perhaps you haven't imagined what kind of friendship can be formed in a world that is plunged into darkness with only two people who can communicate." Zhang Lin stepped forward, looked between the two old men for a moment, and gave a very natural smile.

Hearing Zhang Lin's voice, the main priest looked like the face that was already full of wrinkles in the dark time and space of the sacrificial ground, and it seemed that this was a change that had taken place at some cost.

"Ah, you're back, and sure enough, it's the right choice to give you the task." The events that happened one after another during this period of time made the priest look a little tired, but at this time he also showed a rare relaxed attitude, "It's surprising to hear that girl say that you eliminated Eldridge. ”

She coughed twice, and the girl she said was the fireproof girl.

"Don't you blame us for losing a salary-level firewood?"

"I heard Guda say that Eldridge's awakening has brought disaster to the Gloomy Church, and that kind of scourge is a good ending whether it is thrown back into the furnace or destroyed," by the faint candlelight next to him, the wrinkles on the priest's forehead seemed to have stretched a lot, "Because Guda arrived in time, and Rudos also woke up, it doesn't matter much if there is a loss of firewood." ”

"As for Eldridge and Shaliwan's cooperation, it is really a bit unexpected to cause such a heavy blow to Cold Valley," after listening to what happened in Cold Valley described by Zhang Lin, the main priest sighed, "Sure enough, in the end, we still have to take the last resort." ”

The heavy bell rang through the sky of the fire festival again, and although it was not a deafening loud sound, each stroke seemed to strike in the hearts of people, and spread throughout the world without the slightest attenuation.

In the ash cemetery outside the sacrificial ground, stone coffins were slowly pushed open, and the crows standing on the dead branches were startled by the sudden movement, and the cemetery keepers patrolling the cemetery did not raise their weapons as they did in the past, but watched the changes in silence.

The ashes, dressed in various clothes, awoke from the coffin and slowly sat up.

These ashes are men and women, with different identities and occupations, and they still look a little confused when they just wake up, even if they are not armored and ragged, they also pick up the worn-out wooden sticks around them and look at everything outside vigilantly.

At the foot of the mountain, a tall giant rose from the sarcophagus, his huge blade stuck into the ground, and the flames gradually ignited from his body.

A knight with an onion-shaped helmet, reached out and touched his waist, found that the wine brewed in the past no longer existed, looked at the back of the giant who was far away below, and followed without hesitation, but not long after he ran back to the same place because of the winding mountain road, and when he sighed helplessly, a man hovered in front of him on a black dragon.

"Do you want me to give you a ride?"

On the other side, in the coffins, some knights with the same shape, carrying large swords and wearing triangular helmets, slowly got up, their eyes looked at the fortress in the distant forest, and they set out on the journey without looking back.

The second prince's dormitory above the large library of Losric.

Listening to the sound of the bell, the second prince sighed a little sadly, even though most of the sages in the big library had turned into living corpses at this time, and he was powerless to restrict the prince's movements, he did not have the slightest idea of leaving this place.

Outside the window, the sun was like a cursed ring hanging in the sky, and the light of dusk was projected in the room full of feathers.

"Brother, let's fight fate one last time."

The wordless eldest prince gently stroked his brother's hair, his eyes full of care.
