Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

As the first source of energy to break through Tianzun's blockade, the River of Eternal Darkness has a very high degree of activation.

So he chose to 'resurrect' the Hades Emperor, hoping to use this former god of death to stop the embers.

Even though the Hades Emperor has been dead for thousands of years, the person wandering in the River of Eternal Darkness is just an ordinary dead person without any extraordinary characteristics in his body.But with the blessing of the "source" of the River of Eternal Darkness, he can still maintain a strength close to sequence 0.

But after all, he was just a puppet controlled by the River of Eternal Darkness, not the Emperor of Hades who won the final victory in the War of Four Emperors thousands of years ago.

'Death' Salinger stood on the edge of the river, his eyes burning with pale flames staring closely at the embers standing at the end of the stairs.There is no hatred in His eyes, only unforgettable obsession - He longs for true resurrection, true freedom, and becomes the Emperor of Hades once again!

So, Ember must die!
"Roar!"

A low roar came from His rotting mouth, echoing over the river, causing the entire city of Calderon to visibly shake.

The river sometimes rolled up, sometimes fell, sometimes dark, sometimes pale, and surged toward the embers standing at the end of the stone stairs.The pale torrent slapped Yu Yan's body wave after wave, trying to submerge him and drown him in the river.

But no matter how the 'waves' beat, the illusory river water could never really touch Yi Yan's body.

The rotting body of Salinger, the God of Death, was approaching the embers step by step, and around him were countless vague shadows wandering on the edge of the river.At this moment, they seemed to have gained a part of 'freedom'. They no longer wandered around forever, but followed the footsteps of the 'god of death', approaching the embers step by step, making unconscious and crazy roars from their mouths.

This is an army of the dead!

At a glance, Ember saw many identical figures in the army of the dead - they all belonged to the same person, Azik Eggers, who had bronze skin and soft features.

This 'Death Archon' seems to have split into multiple selves, wandering blankly among the pale stone pillars on both sides of the 'River of Eternal Darkness'.

But in reality, although the 'Death Archon' is not in good condition, he is obviously still alive.

But since He appears here, it means that He has died, and more than once.

This reminds Yu Ember of the 'Undead' in sequence 4 of the 'Death' path. The 'Undead' will die and be resurrected every 60 years, and forget most of the past memories. They need to be slowly retrieved in the future. It's like starting a new life.

But it is obvious that this kind of immortality is not real immortality, and it also has great hidden dangers.Because every time they die, a 'shadow' will split off and wander forever in the River of Eternal Darkness.If you die too many times and the weight of the split 'shadow' exceeds the original body, perhaps even the original body will be attracted to the River of Eternal Darkness and become the real 'dead'.

Although Azik's body is still alive and well, what appears here is just a 'shadow'.But with the blessing of the River of Eternal Darkness, these 'shadows' all have the strength of Sequence 4 or above.A few examples of them even have the strength of Sequence 2. They are genuine angels, and their strength is already equivalent to the original body!

After all, for a source of essence, it is not difficult to give some power to these 'shadows'.

And next to the Death Archon, there were two pale shadows that did not belong to him.

They all have black hair and brown eyes, with ordinary facial features and a somewhat bookish air.

Their name is Klein, Klein Moretti.

Next to Klein, there was a man wearing a black trench coat. His gray eyes were extremely deep against the pale skin.

His name was Dunn, Dunn Smith.

And compared to these 'acquaintances', there are even more people we don't know!
The figures on both sides of the river converged into a rushing black river, so dense that one could not see the end!

These people are undoubtedly the dead who have died before, forever wandering on the edge of the River of Eternal Darkness.And in the past thousands of years, more than tens of millions of creatures have died?At least it’s in the hundreds of billions, or even in the trillions!

Even though many of them have been wandering for eternity, they were swept into the middle of the river by the rising tide, sinking to the bottom of the river uncontrollably, and melting like frost.But there are still hundreds of millions of figures still lingering on both sides of the river!

Although most of them are just ordinary people, even the River of Eternal Darkness will not bless these ordinary people with extraordinary abilities, and the hindrance to the embers is almost zero.But this densely packed number still seems a bit chilling at first glance.

Ember looked away from the endless procession of the dead. It seemed that the River of Eternal Darkness was determined to stop him.But it is impossible for him not to understand that no matter how large the number of these dead people are, they will only delay time and cannot really stop him, even if the 'God of Death' Salinger is added.

Unless...the purpose of the River of Eternal Darkness is to delay time, who is he waiting for?Adam?Or someone else?

Ember didn't try to find out, because no matter who it was, He would show up sooner or later.

There is no need to waste time on such unimportant issues.

In the same way, the same goes for these dead people. Ember has no intention of getting entangled with them.

and so……

Ember flipped his palm and a bell appeared from nowhere.

The style of the bell is not very exquisite, but very 'rustic'. It looks like it is carved from square stone.

Corresponding to this bell is a square box with the same shape as the bell held by the ember in the palm of the right hand - that is an urn.

Jingle bell~!

The crisp ringing of the bell resounded over the River of Eternal Darkness, and on the shaking bell, a purple halo slowly swayed out with the ringing, awakening the sleeping heroes in the urn - the Silver Knights.

In later generations, the protoss under the rule of the pseudo-mother gradually withered, and the strength of the silver knight as the guardian of the protoss was no longer what it was before.Not only the number has dropped sharply, but the strength of these silver knights is also not as good as before.If judged by this world's standards, most of those Silver Knights are only at the Sequence 5 level.

Only the Dark Moon Knight, who was regarded as a confidant by the transvestite, still maintained the strength of all Sequence 4 members.But compared with the Silver Knight at the peak of the Protoss, its scale is still better than nothing.

In the end, under Sullivan's purge, the Dark Moon Knights were completely wiped out.Even if some of the remaining Silver Knights are still loyal to the Gods, relying solely on their Sequence 5 level, even if they intend to kill thieves and help the Gods, it will ultimately be of no use.

But what the ember summons is not the Silver Knights who were raised by false mothers in future generations.Instead, they were elite knights who had followed Gwen in the dragon-hunting war and defeated the immortal ancient dragon. Each of them had a strength equivalent to Sequence 4 or even Sequence 3, and each of them possessed the miracle that Gwen once taught - the Sunshine. gun!
One after another, tall figures stood up from the fog of history. They stood behind the embers in a neat formation, filling up the gray-white stairs one after another. Their silver armor glowed in the dark light.

The most elite silver knight has followed Gwen to spread the fire, but the remaining silver knights are still the most heroic and powerful warriors of the gods.In the process of guarding Anor Londo, they died heroically while blocking the powerful enemy in order to protect the Sunshine Princess.

Out of respect for them, Yi Yan chose to 'bury' their ashes together, so that their souls could meet in their dreams - although the urn does not look big, the internal space is really not small, and the scale in the dream is even bigger. It's endless.

But now, they are reborn in the call.

Their swords are still sharp, their armor is still tough, and the noble Silver Knights once again join the war.

Even though they are no longer fighting for the gods this time, they are still noble demigod warriors!

Whoa!
The silver knights stepped back with one foot and uniformly took out a large bow taller than a person from their backs. It was engraved with inscriptions belonging to the gods - it was the large bow used for hunting dragons in the era of gods!

As far as the bow is concerned, it is unreasonably huge, so it also possesses unusually powerful power.

clang!
With a heavy slamming sound, the end of the dragon-hunting bow was 'fixed' to the ground.

The silver knights held bows in one hand and took out large arrows like iron spears from their waists with the other hand. They were made by giants who were the blacksmiths of the gods!
Draw the bow and nock the arrow!
Shining golden miracles gathered at the arrow tips, and the light emitted by thousands of dragon-hunting arrows dispelled the gray surrounding them, allowing this underground world that no light could reach to shine like the sun for the first time!
boom!
The bow strings exploded, the long arrows pierced the air, and the golden light shone across the sky, piercing into the army composed of billions of dead!
Boom!

The arrows fell into the army of the dead, the shining sunlight exploded instantly, and the golden sun also expanded instantly.The bodies of the dead who were touched by the rays of the 'sun' were instantly distorted and turned into ashes amid screams, as easily as the breeze raising dust.

Rumble boom!

Thousands of long arrows pierced the army of the dead, and millions of the dead were wiped out in an instant.But compared to the hundreds of millions of dead people lingering on both sides of the River of Eternal Darkness, such losses are really nothing to mention.

Even though a large number of the dead were melted by the light in an instant, the remaining ones still had no fear at all and remained in a state of numbness, approaching step by step towards the stairs where the embers were.

And the front end of the army of the dead has almost reached the front of the stairs.

Clang!
The silver knights in the front row put away their long bows. Amidst the clang of the long swords being unsheathed, golden thunder and lightning wrapped around both sides of the long swords.

The silver knights held a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, ready to fight.

boom!
The war was about to break out. At least a thousand silver knights rushed down the steps and charged against the endless army of the dead. Their silver armor was like a silver wall of sighs. Their long swords wrapped with golden sunshine in their hands ruthlessly killed anyone who tried to get close. The dead, carrying the 'corpse' of the dead, push back the front line step by step!
On the stairs, the silver knight holding the dragon-hunting bow was not affected at all.

Time and time again, they took out dragon-hunting arrows from their waists and shot them at the tireless army of the dead!
'God of Death' Sallinger stood at the edge of the River of Eternal Darkness, with the silver knight in front of him approaching step by step, and the dead spreading past under his feet.

But apart from that initial roar, He did nothing.

Just stood quietly in the army of the dead, watching everything happen.

Finally, the River of Eternal Darkness seemed to notice his indifference.

The spreading tide instantly submerged the soles of Salinger's feet, and all the dead near him were swept deep into the river, unable to climb out again.

And the raging wave rose higher and higher until it did not reach Salinger's head.

The illusory tide washed over Salinger's face. The water flowed along Salinger's rotten face and entered his body. After flowing in a circle, it flowed out from another rotten hole and merged into the mainstream.

But even if he was submerged by the River of Eternal Darkness, the expression of 'God of Death' Salinger did not change at all.

But He finally stopped being passive and passive, and just like the dead that spread to his feet again, He finally raised his palms.

At this moment, He finally showed the majesty of the God of Death, the illusory god who towered over countless undead souls!
Extremely cold, extremely noble, coming to the world with a strong sense of death.

The Silver Knights quickly killed all the dead on the front line, and the dead in the rear were swallowed up by the rising tide of the River of Eternal Darkness warning the 'God of Death'. As a result, those further behind failed to fill the gap immediately, which made the battle situation unstable. A hint of neutrality.

The silver knights moved forward quickly, rushing towards the spreading army of the dead.

During this process, a silver knight suddenly raised his head and glanced at the tall figure.

His right hand condensed a shining golden miracle, trying to interrupt the movement of the 'God of Death' raising his hand.

But the next second, the Silver Knight suddenly stood there motionless.

Snapped!
In just a moment, the Silver Knight's armor lost its support and instantly turned into countless fragments scattered on the ground.

The silver knight paid the price with his life just by looking into the 'god of death'.

Although his ashes are still well preserved, even though his soul is protected by flames, it is not under the jurisdiction of the River of Eternal Darkness and will not truly die.

But this death will still cause irreversible damage to his soul.

It cannot be summoned a second time within a short period of time.

Seeing the fate of their colleagues, the other Silver Knights responded immediately, lowering their heads and focusing on the army of the dead to avoid the gaze of the 'god of death'.But even without eye contact, under the gaze of the 'God of Death', their movements became more and more sluggish, as if they had changed from young and powerful to decrepit in an instant. They didn't even have the strength to swing their swords, leaving the undead to their fate. Climb up their bodies and eat their armor.

Roar!
The loud dragon roar resounded through the sky, and the black dragon swooped down. The hot dragon flames burned a few meters in front of the Silver Knight's defense line, dividing an insurmountable sea of ​​​​fire and burning all those in it!

The 'God of Death' suddenly raised his head and set his sights on the swooping black dragon.

At the same time, the Silver Knights felt light all over. Their bodies no longer withered, and they were no longer shackled like crossing the river of death.

'Death' stared closely at the huge black dragon. He didn't notice when the dragon appeared - just like he didn't notice when the ember disappeared.
