Rumble.
In a burst of golden lightning, the figure of the hero Guda slowly fell.
"Get 15 points of source power."
This battle was easier than Su Ziyu imagined, because Sister Friede was quite familiar with the enemy's moves. Not only could she predict his moves, she could even remind Su Ziyu to move and dodge.
It seemed that she had really fought with this person.
"What are you looking for?" Su Ziyu asked, looking at Sister Friede who was rummaging through the corpse.
Sister Fried frowned and looked around, then said slowly: "Spiral Sword."
There are no spiral swords here.
After being killed, the hero Guda's figure gradually turned into dust and disappeared, leaving only a glowing soul in Su Ziyu's sight.
—"Hero Guda's soul (can be refined): The only thing that greets the belated hero is the fireless sacrificial site and the silent bell. After refining, 1500 energy points will be obtained."
Su Ziyu took a look at the soul and said softly: "He seems to be the person who was once chosen to carry the fire."
A belated hero
Su Ziyu looked at the broken walls around him and slowly opened the door in front, revealing a winding path leading to the top of the mountain.
"Let's go."
"Ahead is the Fire Sacrifice." Sister Fried said softly.
The two people continued to explore this unique area, and soon some new enemies appeared in their sights, all of them knights transformed into living corpses, wearing the armor of the gods.
"The gods here have been transformed into living corpses for a long time." Su Ziyu said slowly.
"Yes." Sister Fried nodded and said, "In the other fire sacrificial site, there are no gods nearby."
A few minutes later.
An ancient dilapidated building appeared in front of us.
Sister Fried walked in first. While looking at everything around her, she murmured: "It's almost exactly the same as the other Fire Sacrifice."
As she spoke, she came to the center of the Fire Sacrifice, squatted in front of a fire pit in the center, and said hesitantly: "The flames here have been extinguished."
Sister Fried picked up a broken blade that was burned into black. She showed it in front of Su Ziyu and said: "The broken blade of the spiral sword."
—"The broken fragments of the Spiral Sword (wonderful object): the remnants of the campfire that has completed its mission, the fragments of the Spiral Sword that coexist with the campfire. After use, you can return to the campfire of the sacrificial site."
The power of fire remains in the fragments of this spiral sword.
"Be careful! There is someone!" Su Ziyu glanced at it, then seemed to sense something, and suddenly said.
There are people here!
"Over there." Su Ziyu pointed to the top of the stairs.
Sister Fried jumped up with a slight leap, and Su Ziyu followed closely behind. Soon, an old woman sitting on a chair appeared in their sight. She was wearing an old gray robe with exposed breasts. Traces of being transformed into a living corpse could be seen on the outline of his face, but he still seemed to have self-awareness. He actually raised his head and looked at them, and said slowly: "Oh, oh, it's really strange."
"The bell didn't ring, but a lost person actually showed up."
Sister Fried looked the old woman in front of her up and down, and whispered in Su Ziyu's ear: "She is the maid of the Fire Sacrifice."
The entire sacrificial site was empty, except for this one living person.
"What do you want from me, an old woman?" The old woman in front of them did not get up, but looked up at them and murmured.
It seems possible to communicate.
Su Ziyu took a step forward curiously: "Where is this place?"
"The sacrificial site where the flames are extinguished." The old woman spoke in a strange voice. Although she seemed to have self-awareness, the signs of becoming a living corpse were very serious.
"Where is the fireproof girl?" Sister Fried observed the other party carefully, as if judging something, and suddenly said: "Why are you still here?"
The old woman looked up at her and said slowly: "I am the maid at the sacrificial site."
"Even if the flames go out, you shouldn't leave here."
"Fireproof girl?"
"The fire prevention girl who completed her mission naturally died."
"Fireless embers?"
"You shouldn't stay here, there is still a mission you need to complete outside."
After saying these words, the old woman in front of her fell silent and sat motionless on her chair, as if she had completely lost interest in communicating.
This is a man waiting to die.
Su Ziyu could feel that her soul had long been dim.
"That's the blacksmith over there." Sister Fried looked around, then turned to Su Ziyu and said, "Follow me."
After saying that, she walked forward for a while.
After Su Ziyu followed him, he whispered: "I seem to have remembered something."
"This is the place where the undead spread the fire."
It was the undead who were responsible for spreading the fire at first, but later they became fireless embers.
Sister Friede groped around as if she was looking for something. After a while, she suddenly hit the wall with her weapon, and then the wall gradually disappeared, and what appeared in front of them was a mummy that had existed for an unknown period of time.
"The original fireproof girl." Sister Fried squatted down and murmured.
Finished.
Sister Fried took out a pair of crystallized eyeballs from the corpse, held them in her hand for a moment, and then showed them to Su Ziyu.
- "The eyes of the fire-proof girl (high-level rare object): It is said to be the eyes of the original fire-proof girl, and then all the fire-proof girls lost their light. It is said to allow the fire-proof girl to see things that she should not see."
Su Ziyu frowned and glanced at it and said, "Is there anything wrong with these eyes?"
Sister Fried nodded and said: "An ancient ritual."
"Fireproof girls are going to have their eyes removed."
"Only by embracing the darkness can they protect the flame."
When Sister Fried said this, her expression showed a slight hesitation, and then she said slowly: "I may need to go back to the Fire Sacrifice."
go back
Su Ziyu frowned slightly and said, "What are you going to do?"
Sister Fried showed the eyeball in her hand and said softly: "Give it to the fireproof girl."
"I want to be close to the original fire."
"We're going to need the fire girl's help."
Sister Fried must have recalled something, but she was not willing to elaborate. Instead, she looked up at Su Ziyu and said, "Can you trust me?"
"Maybe I have a way to extinguish the initial fire in a simpler way."
"But you must give me the souls of other salary kings as proof."
After Su Ziyu was silent for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay."
"But at least you let me understand what you want to do."
Sister Fried thought for a while, spread out the eyeballs in her hands and said, "This is a curse."
"The Curse of the Fireproof Woman."
"It would allow us to enlist the help of the Fire Lady."
Su Ziyu's expression was a bit unbelievable, and she asked doubtfully: "Give these eyes to the fire prevention girl, will she help us put out the fire?"
"Yes." Sister Fried nodded and said, "Because it will allow the fire prevention girl to see the era when the flames will eventually go out."
"And a glimmer of hope for the future."
Su Ziyu was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay."
"Go ahead."
"I trust you."
After saying that, Su Ziyu took out the souls of the other three kings of salary.
The refining speed of the demon gourd is not fast, and the other souls have not been refined yet. The souls of those King Xin are kept by Su Ziyu in his own private space. Su Ziyu had already gained a lot of divinity points in the previous battles. Even if Sister Fried ran away with the souls of these kings, he had already obtained his biggest gain.
Besides, he still trusted Sister Fried.
Sister Fried's position was consistent with his. Although she concealed some things, Su Ziyu still chose to believe her.
Moreover, Sister Fried's return to the Fire Sacrifice is risky. King Xin's soul should be a proof, a certificate to win the trust of others.
The two people did not stay at the fireless sacrificial site for too long.
It's so depressing and dark here.
Disturbing.
Except for a maid at the sacrificial site who was waiting to die, no living person could be seen.
The belated hero caused the flames here to go out, and the abandoned fireless sacrificial site was sealed in the deepest part of the Royal City of Lothrik. There may be a tortuous secret in it, but it has long been buried in history.
Sister Freed teleported directly back to the Fire Sacrifice through the spiral sword fragments.
Su Ziyu returned along the original path, preparing to go to the Ancient Dragon's Summit. According to the plan, he needed the cooperation of the two princes of Lothrik.
Fire-passing sacrificial site.
Among the floating sparks, Sister Fried's figure appeared directly next to the campfire in the center.
As her figure appeared, the entire Fire Transferring Sacrificial Site was filled with deathly silence.
Hawkwood, who was squatting in a corner not far away, stared at Sister Friede in stunned silence. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he swallowed it.
"Why do you dare to come back?"
An old voice sounded, seemingly coming from the throne.
Sister Fried turned around expressionlessly and looked directly at the salary king on the throne. He was an old man with sparks burning on his body and his legs had been burned off. She said calmly: "Why can't I come back?"
After saying that, Sister Fried directly took out her giant scythe, looked at Ludos on the throne, and said slowly: "As firewood, the King of Firewood does not have to live."
"Ludos."
"do you understand?"
Hearing Sister Friede's words, King Ludos on the throne obviously lost his momentum and stuttered a little when he spoke. He said angrily: "This... this is the Fire Sacrifice!..."
Sister Fried turned her head and looked to her side. A female figure appeared in the darkness. She said slowly: "Of course I know this is the Fire Sacrifice."
Don't know when.
A hazy figure appeared in the darkness. She held an invisible sword in her hand. She looked at Sister Fried in front of her and said, "Sister. How dare you come back?"
Yulia.
Julia of Rondall, the leader of the Black Church, is also the sister of Sister Fried.
Next to her was another fireless ember, dressed as a witch. He was looking at Sister Fried with interest, and from time to time he would turn his attention to the fire-proof woman beside the bonfire.
The fire girl stood silently.
However, everyone noticed that she had placed her white palm on the spiral sword stuck in the center of the bonfire.
"You betrayed the flame!..." When Ludos's eyes fell on the fire-proof woman, there was a hint of unobvious fear in his expression.
At this time, the situation in the Chuanhuo Sacrificial Site was very strange.
Almost everyone is paying attention to the change in the expression of the fire-proof girl. Although the fire-proof girl looks like she is powerless, all the fire-free embers know that the fire-proof girls of every generation are not simple. The most terrifying thing is the amount of soul. She is a container, and it is she who helps the fireless embers transform their souls into power.
Fireproof girls can't be killed.
There was once a fire-free ember that killed the fire-proof girl in a sneak attack, but she soon resurrected from the bonfire and inserted the spiral sword into the body of the ashes. Only after completing the mission can the fire-proof girl obtain the rest of death.
Fireproof Girl will not turn into a living corpse, she can be resurrected no matter how many times she dies.
"I didn't betray the flame." Sister Friede's attention was always on the fire-proof girl. She slowly took out the soul of the King of Xin that Su Ziyu gave her, showed it to the others, and condensed. He said: "I am just using that unknown king."
"Let him help me get this firewood."
One by one, dazzling soul brilliance emerged.
The soul of the immortal team of Fran, the soul of the giant king Youmu, the soul of the god-devouring Eldridge.
Sister Fried stood there with a calm expression and said slowly: "While you still have nothing to gain."
"But I'm almost successful."
"As long as I wait for the right time, I can get all the fuel king's firewood."
The fireproof girl stood there with a slight frown on her face.
She stared at the souls in Sister Fried's hands, and she always felt that there seemed to be something missing in them.
However, she still said softly: "Welcome back."
"Lord Fireless Ember."
The atmosphere in the entire Fire Sacrifice suddenly relaxed. After the fire girl spoke, the others couldn't help but fell silent. They just looked at Sister Fried inexplicably.
Sister Friede slowly walked towards Yulia in Rondall.
However, when passing by the fire prevention girl, she seemed to accidentally touch the back of the fire prevention girl's hand with her little finger.
"elder sister."
"You can't lie to me. You don't want to spread the flames." Yulia looked at Sister Friede expressionlessly and said.
Sister Fried sighed softly and said slowly: "Do you think other people don't know why Rondall wants to spread the fire?"
"The Wandering Soul King of Lundall?"
"hehe."
A sarcastic smile appeared on Sister Fried's lips, and she whispered softly: "Being the king of a group of living corpses in such a hopeless world?"
"Does it make sense?"
Yulia remained silent and said solemnly: "The era of the gods' rule has ended, and the era of mankind will eventually come."
Sister Fried shook her head and said, "Human?"
"It's just a bunch of conscious zombies."
"The fire will eventually die out."
"Can a group of living zombies survive the dark ages without fire?"
"Are you still believing the lies of the World Serpent? Give up! Only destruction can usher in new life!"
Yulia was silent for a moment, then raised her head and said: "As long as we capture the Initial Fire, humans will have enough heroes to continue the flame."
"Persistent." Sister Fried said coldly.
After saying that, she turned around and left, but in the direction of Hawkwood, making the man back away a little uneasily.
The fire girl was still standing quietly by the bonfire.
Sister Fried turned her head and glanced at the fire prevention girl, then found a quiet place to sit down, as if waiting for a suitable opportunity.
