Chapter 30: Conspiracy in the Dark
"Dang!"
Zhang Linge opened the thin sword that stabbed at him and looked at the comer, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I saw you enter the land of the heresy," the female knight in silver gauze armor held the silver glittering sword in one hand and pointed it at Zhang Lin's chest, "Offering a disgusting sacrifice to be reborn?" Climt preached that, I had heard of such a heretical archbishop before, and I didn't expect you to mingle with such a depraved person. ”
"Don't slander my innocence without any basis."
Zhang Lin lowered his eyes and looked at the sword blade with a light purple light in front of him, "Your combat experience is not good, although your sword is very fast, but once you are blocked by someone, or you encounter someone faster than you, you will probably be finished if you lack defense means." ”
Zhang Lin held a sword in one hand and stuck the opponent's weapon, and in the other hand held a gun aimed at the female knight's abdomen, "You are also very disproportionate, it is not a good choice to stab directly in the chest, just like your set of armor, the slender waist is obviously a very vulnerable position." ”
"So, can we put down our weapons and have a good talk, there is no need to use swords like this." Saying that, Zhang Lin raised his eyebrows at the female knight, "For example, sit down and have a drink?" ”
"There's no need," the female knight skimmed the weapon pointing to her abdomen, although she couldn't see what it was, but it should be something like a crossbow, she was a little careless, and then put down her sword, Zhang Lin also took advantage of the situation to withdraw the weapon, "If you don't kill innocents and use killing to achieve your selfish desires, then I won't care about you for the time being, but if you do, then I, Ciris of the Land of Twilight, and the knight of the Sword of the Dark Moon will be your enemy!" With that, the knight slung her weapon back to her waist and prepared to leave.
"Wait, you're Ciris?" Zhang Lin grabbed the other party and almost made the female knight draw her sword again, "No wonder I think you are a little familiar." ”
"You know me?" Cialis looked at Zhang Lin with some confusion.
"I've met your grandfather, Paladin Fdorinku."
At this moment, Ciris's original indifferent expression finally changed, "Where did you meet him?" ”
"Right outside the undead settlement of Lothric, he's going to get something from that cursed tree," Zhang Lin recalled, "That tree is no longer normal, although I advised your grandfather, but he insists on staying there, if you don't want anything to happen to him, go to him as soon as possible." ”
Cialis stared at Zhang Lin's eyes for a long time, making sure that Zhang Lin was not lying, and then frowned, as if struggling to make some decision, "Thank you for bringing me this news, may your future road be illuminated by the moonlight." ”
"Aren't you going to go to him?" Zhang Lin somewhat guessed the decision made by the female knight in front of him.
Cialis paused in his footsteps, then turned his face sideways, glanced at Zhang Lin, and then turned away without saying a word.
The flames were gradually extinguished, and the day of this world was getting shorter and shorter, and at this moment the outside of the church had fallen into darkness again, and at this time two female figures appeared next to the cemetery, one of them was wearing a long black dress, and a black mask covering her entire face, her graceful figure blended into the darkness, her left hand was horizontally placed on her chest, her right elbow was resting on her left wrist, and a silver ring on her finger shimmered in the moonlight.
"Sister, when did you wake up?"
The woman known as the elder sister wore a common set of gray nun robes and a gray-black nun hood on her head, and she stepped barefoot on the stone slab on the ground, "It's a pleasure to see you again, Yulia, the bell woke me up in advance, maybe it has something to do with the fact that I wasn't buried in the ashes cemetery." ”
"Since you were thrown into the flames, I thought I would never see you again, Lilian Anne is still maintaining the church in Longall, and she will surely be happy to know that you have awakened, this is Cass's protection."
Yulia took the nun's hand, "The bell rings, the flames will die, just as Lord Cass predicted, the world will fall into darkness, our original plan was to find a ghost king who is qualified to usurp the power of the flames, since you have been awakened, sister, then it is up to you to become our new king, and the power of the flames will be in our hands!" ”
"No, Yulia, I'm not going to get involved in this matter, the Dark Church in Longor continues to be led by you, and the search for the ashes qualified to become the King of Spirits is also under your charge."
"Sister Fried......" Yulia's gaze fell on Fride through the mask, "Aren't you going to return, we have spent so much time establishing the Dark Church in Longor, and started looking for a way out for us geists, we have sacrificed so much, even you have been used as firewood, why are you not willing to continue our dreams now after waking up as ashes?" Yulia was a little anxious, "Why, Alfried, you are the one most qualified to be the King of the Spirits of my generation!" ”
"Don't worry, Yuria," Fried reassured her sister, "I woke up and found the scroll of Eremias, in this church. ”
Fried turned around, and a dimly lit scythe appeared in her hand, "You see, my strength is not as good as it used to be because I have been burned, I am just a fireless ash at this time, and they have put their hope of spreading fire on the current hero Guda, I will use the remaining strength to hinder Guda for a while, and then I will go to the world of painting Eiredel." ”
At this time, the graveyard of the dark church was roaming some undead who had lost their minds, but they did not come close to the two of them. Unlike these undead, the land of wandering souls, Longdor, as a kingdom built on the ruins of the ancient kingdom of Delon Younger, was once regarded as a place of exile for the undead, but after the darkness engulfed the country and the flames could no longer illuminate, they discovered that even if the body was completely living corpse, they could still maintain their sanity, which was the true form of the geist, the human being preached by the Black Church.
"The flames will be extinguished, the influence of the gods will gradually dissipate, and then they will have to ring the bell again to awaken the former Salary King and the Ashes," Fried said to her sister, stroking the blade and bowing her head, "and there is another flame for Eledle, where I will go, and my remnants will do something more for the Church." ”
Yulia was silent, rubbing the creature ring on her finger that would disguise her in her human form, "I will summon your most loyal knight, Vihle, who will surely be happy to help the one who once swore an oath to protect. ”
"Vihle? That brainless creature is still alive," a smile tugged at the corners of Fried's mouth, "and you'll burn that scroll after I enter that world, and even if I fail, Aredel's fire won't be able to affect this world." ”
"But then you won't be able to come back!"
"It's just a trivial sacrifice, as long as we can break the deception of the gods and break free from the shackles that have shrouded us for thousands of years, what is it?" As she spoke, Fried's gaze fell into the depths of the dark church, "And there is a force here that can help us ......"
