858. Abandoned Fortress
When Lane first came into this world, he first chose to keep his distance when faced with the group of lumberjacks.
That's because of the special reminder of the lady of the lake, which made him full of vigilance when he first came, and secondly, because he had not seen the undead and wandering spirits, such 'characteristics' of this world.
That's why prudence is the primary consideration.
And now, after clarifying the way of generating immortals and geyers, Lan En has no scruples about making a move.
"That's the way it should be."
The female knights of the Twilight Land speak in a crepe-like manner, with a bit of an old-fashioned accent, and seem to be the kind of people who have been educated by the elite.
She agreed with Lanne's interruption of the tension, and then distanced herself from Leonard, palms resting on the large bayonet at her waist, keeping an eye around the corpse carrier.
The same goes for Leonard.
After Lan En put away his knife, he looked the witcher up and down for a moment, then nodded imperceptibly.
It seems to affirm his own vision.
He felt that this was a formidable warrior before Lan En did it. And after Lan En made a move, his judgment was proven.
It's just that his silver mask covers his entire face, so Lan En can't see more expression than a slight nod.
Leonard, as a goddess knight, is undoubtedly a dedicator.
After leaving Ranne's side, he struck up a conversation with the other warriors and knights in the convoy.
Most people in this world are silent and silent, so once they speak, they will be the first to show their attitude.
As a result, Leonard often has already completed a conversation with a goal with just a few words with other people.
The ability of the Mother of Rebirth is indeed extraordinarily attractive to battle-hardened warriors.
After all, as long as you fight, there is a high probability that you will be injured.
With good luck and good technique, he suffered a little skin injury after a fight.
If you are unlucky and your technique is not good, you will hurt your bones, ligaments, tendons, nerves.
For a normal ordinary person fighter, the longer the combat career, the worse the physical fitness will become in the suffering.
And in today's increasingly chaotic world, everyone wants to live a little longer.
And these people are indeed as Leonard said: they have little resistance to turning into bugs for a while. If you can really get a better body in the future.
The convoy led by the archbishop was indeed full of good players.
Leonard has reached an agreement with several people.
Lan En felt that there were quite a few of them, and they did have two brushes.
For example, a wandering knight with a short axe, the axe faintly glows with yellow electricity, and it feels quite fierce.
There was also a knight with strange shape of full-body armor, wrapped in lean armor and shields covered in spikes. It felt like walking past him could be scraped off.
A large convoy of sliding caravans followed the route that Len had followed with Fodorink and back.
Undead settlements and secluded churches are at either end of the road.
According to the communication between Lane and Leonard, this road was originally opened to connect the two places.
It is a 'funeral route' built specifically for the transport of the undead.
The undead who want to seek liberation and sleep go to the undead settlements. The village in the fiefdom of the Duke of Ulster has a long experience in dealing with the undead, and I heard that the Duke brought the technology from his hometown of Karim.
They would execute the undead in a ceremonial and crisp manner. Then take this road to the secluded church.
After receiving the corpse, the corpse of the undead will be drained of the blood to maximize the recovery time of the undead, and then buried in the cemetery next to the church.
The whole process is full of ritual and religion, hoping to give the immortal a final solace.
It wasn't until Eldridge, the Sage of the Dark, was sent by the king of Lothric as a sage to settle in the Chapel of the Shadows and earn this name, that the reputation of the road did not become very good.
But what exactly happened, Leonard was very secretive and didn't want to say more.
Others don't even know about it.
It seems that this is another secret that is not intriguing.
There were no twists and turns along the way, and the convoy entered the forest where Lan En first arrived in this world.
Because of the relationship that had been cleaned up by Verdorink, the convoy didn't even meet a single geist.
When they arrived in the forest, the terrain was complex and their vision was restricted, so the soldiers in the convoy began to spontaneously wander and observe in front of and behind the convoy.
Among them, Len had also seen the goddess named Rosalia again, but she still had that sad, inextricable, and dead look.
Under this expression, the black civilian clothes are more like mourning clothes at a funeral.
Following the convoy, Lane was able to continue deeper into the forest, having been taken out directly by Verdolynk last time.
The forest is so well hydrated that it is possible to create a lake-like pool in the forest.
Beyond the waterhole, Lan's eyesight made him faintly see that at the other end, there seemed to be some remnants of Gothic buildings composed of blue bricks and tiles.
"That's the remnants of the fortress of the Flange Immortals."
Leonard still seems to have regarded Ryan as the best recruit to serve the goddess, so he follows him and talks to him.
"The fortress of the famous [Salary King]. Hum. Don't look at it from this angle, only a little bit is exposed, in fact, the main body of the fortress is under the cliff over there, and it is very large. Now all that's exposed is the roof. ”
Lan En tilted his head sideways, looked at the ruins and nodded slightly.
It's the title of "Salary King" again, what is it exactly?
And listening to Leonard's sneering tone, when he said 'famous' in his mouth, he was obviously sarcastic.
With a good view, Lan En could see that on the other side of the waterhole, two warriors in heavy armor and with large weapons in their hands were bowing to the convoy on this side.
Although it is so far away, it may not even be possible for anyone to see it.
"Is there anyone in the abandoned fortress?"
Lan En asked without looking back.
"Exile. The sinful knights of the city of Lothric were sent to this ruin by King Othloes to wear the armor of atonement and guard the homeland of the Salary Kings. ”
"Guards?" Lan En scratched his forehead, a little confused.
"After all, this is not an abandoned fortress? What else is there inside that is worth guarding? ”
"Ha, although it is an abandoned fortress, it is a fortress as powerful as a god. Even though the Flange Immortals have been carrying out the fire rituals for a long time, there will never be a shortage of speculators. ”
Although Leonard is angry with the yin and yang of the [Salary King], he does not shy away from the strength of the [Salary King], but admits it bluntly.
As he spoke, he raised his leather-gloved hand and pointed to the other side of the great waterhole, the path they were currently taking.
"A group of mages from the Piheim Dragon Academy, who want to come here to discover the magic of the Undead Squad. It was an ally of the Undead Squad, a battle spell created by the Crystallized Old Man specifically for the Undead Squad. ”
"After the fire was passed by the Fran Immortals, the old man did not go back to Lothric City to find his twin brother, but stayed here all the time. They are all the legendary great magicians, the inheritors of the spells of Logan [Big Hat]. ”
"The guys in Piheim have been hungry for their knowledge for a long time."
