People are at the junction, but they become the incarnation of the sun

But the tragedy on the battlefield is also particularly tragic.

The once peaceful gravel paths were stained with blood.

The prosperous Yatan Plateau was already filled with corpses, and the scarlet flowing down gathered into streams, eroding away the golden earth.

Under the shroud of dark clouds, war and strife have become the main colors here, and the once powerful King Rodel City is almost in pieces.

The siege engines and tall golem guards roared, and the fighting knights roared.

But neither the defensive side nor the offensive side had any intention of stopping, and the emotion called madness gradually spread on the battlefield.

Crazy, everyone is crazy, everyone is red-eyed.

Even the war between the stars and the moon that he had personally experienced was nothing compared to this place, not even fart, it was just playing house.

Among them, there were many warriors who could be called heroes, fighting in the army, but in the end they were still buried by the tide of soldiers.

But the most eye-catching thing is the two flying red hair——

The tall Latarn is wielding his two star-shattering broadswords to kill everyone on the battlefield. The thick blades are wrapped with purple magic light like thunder. Every time he swings it, a large number of homeless knights and Knight Rodel died.

From time to time, he opens the big lion bow and rains down gravity arrows.

Marlenia, who was relatively slender and petite, waved the golden holy blade embedded in the prosthetic hand to stir up a gust of sword wind. She tapped her toes on the ground and danced like a water bird, and reaped life like a god of death.

She didn't know how long she had been killing, but the armor on her body had been dyed dark red by blood.

But what surprised him the most was a guy holding a golden battle axe, carved with the image of a wild beast.

It's just that the guy's appearance is too delicate and looks very uncoordinated.

But every time it was swung, a gust of wind arose.

If you guessed correctly, that guy should be Greg, right?I didn't expect it to have grown so big.

Moreover, the old ministers who once belonged to Godwin could indeed be seen beside that man, but there was no sign of Godwin's knights guard, nor was there any trace of Rutier.

At this moment, a figure rushed out from the direction of King Rodel City. The man was very large, but because he was wearing a gray robe, his face could not be distinguished. All he could see was that he was holding a crutch in his hand. A faintly visible tail can be seen at the end of the robe.

The man was very fast. In just a few seconds, he rushed into the battlefield, raised the cane, and threw out the dagger and heavy hammer condensed with golden power, killing enemy troops one after another.

The moment those golden eyes locked onto Latarn and Marlenia, the man jumped up high and pushed Latarn to the ground while they were fighting. The tip of the seemingly primitive crutch pierced Latarn hard. On En's shoulder, dripping blood spurted out on the spot.

"...who are you!"

"I am Malkit, the [Ominous Demon Ghost] guarding King Rodel's City, and I have been ordered by [Blessed King] Mengget to clean up your group of rebellious ministers!"

Latarn gritted his teeth tightly and held the head of the crutch with one hand so that the crutch could no longer be submerged even further.

But that dark face was full of doubts.

This guy called him Malkit had never seen him before and had no impression of him at all.

But judging from the rugged hard corners on his face, he must be the son of a bad omen.

But where could the Son of Omen with a hard horn and the ability to use the Golden Law come from in King Rodel City?

The most important thing is that this guy is very strong. Even if the attack just now had the element of a sneak attack, the opponent was powerful enough to make him take it seriously.

The surrounding Red Lion soldiers saw the brave Latarn being pushed to the ground. They had already killed the red-eyed soldiers and did not care about the advantage between us and the enemy. They all raised their spears and stabbed the man who was pressing on Latarn. .

But before the spear could stab him, a gust of wind suddenly flashed around him.

Immediately afterwards, traces of blood spattered on their bodies.

Several black knights ran out of nowhere and killed them all.

"Lord Ratan!"

The red lion knight Oga shouted when he saw this, and immediately took out his big bow and shot a shower of gravity arrows, and then drove away the gray-robed man.

But when Latan stood up and tried to find the guy who called himself the Omen Demon, he had already lost track of him. There was no trace of that person on the chaotic battlefield filled with smoke and dust.

"...What do you think about this, Reinhardt."

On the city wall, Malika asked quietly while watching the war scene, her face still showed no fluctuation at all, as if all this had nothing to do with her, and she was just a spectator.

"How can I see it? It's all about profit."

"Oh?" Malika looked sideways after hearing this, with a bit of curiosity in her beautiful eyes, "What do you say?"

"What else can I say?" Reinhard shrugged, watching the battle below with the same expressionless expression, and sighed: "Human actions are determined based on desire and rationality. Human instincts constantly produce desires, and rationality It has the function of suppressing these desires, but if the thinking ability as the source of rationality is lost for some reason, people will become animals driven by desires."

"Obviously, the rationality of the group of people who appear here are affected by the broken Elden Circle."

Ever since the Ring of Elden was broken, everyone under the Golden Law will be affected to some extent.

In this regard, even Ariana and Dixi are no exception.

In the past, they had exterminated bandits who accidentally came to the basement, but their attacks were different from the past. They were more ruthless and merciless than before.

"Well, rather than this, I would like to ask Queen Malika, aren't you going to stop it? Let them destroy the golden dynasty you worked so hard to build? Let your descendants fight each other?"

"...That's right, I don't care about all this." Malika said in the same emotional tone: "The Golden Dynasty is already a part of history for me, and I have already known about those lovely children. Send down the proverb.”

Demigod, my lovely child.

You can be anything -

Can become a king, can also be a god.

But if you don’t become any existence, you will be abandoned...

And, become a sacrifice.

"You are so cruel, Malika...like a witch." Reinhardt complained slightly.

But it's also true.

For the sake of the plan, Malika sacrificed not only Godwin, but also many relatives of the gold family, almost all of whom died under the assassination of the black knife.

Now, he is so straightforwardly prepared to sacrifice these demigods as sacrifices.

As for the initial outbreak of the war, he had already guessed the reason.

This should be a war led by Greg.

After Godwin died, the skinned body was put into a coffin and transported back to the foot of the golden tree in King Rodel City to prepare for the return ceremony.

As the eldest son, Greg naturally needs to accompany him.

But not long after that, Malika performed the Ring Shattering. The gods and kings of the Golden Dynasty disappeared overnight, and the Elden Ring was also shattered.

As the eldest son of Godwin, Greg is the most qualified candidate to inherit the throne of King Elden.

But at this time, Godwin's brother, Mengt, ran out, and at some point, he gathered a group of men to seize the throne by force and expelled Greg from the royal city.

Naturally, Greg was dissatisfied, so he tangled up his father's men and Nimgefu's army, and took advantage of the situation to win over Latarn and Mikayla and launch an attack on Rodel King's City to start a battle for the throne.

Because Michaela was on good terms with Godwin, she would not refuse, so she sent Malenia.

I don't know what Latarn was thinking, but he agreed anyway, probably because he wanted to be a hero on the side of Qing Jun, or for some other reason.

In short, the first royal city defense battle broke out like this.

"Haha, witch?" Malika pursed her lips and smiled, "I like this title very much, it's very good."

"And Reinhard... Maybe you don't know one thing. I am now a dead person. I was punished because of the broken ring and was hung inside the golden tree. My body serves as a container to maintain the remaining magic ring... ..What stands in front of you is just a part of the last breath left."

"Oh, really?"

Hearing this, Reinhard glanced at Malika slightly and continued: "So, as the deceased Queen Malika, what are you going to ask me to do next?"

"die."

Malika answered very decisively without any hesitation, but Reinhardt thought that he heard wrongly and asked again: "... Malika, what did you say? I didn't hear it clearly. Can you repeat it again? ?”

"Okay, I hope you will choose a place of your choice to die next." Malika said seriously every word, "However, even though it is death, it will return in the end."

"The War King Godfrey who left the border area was like this, and so were his subordinates."

"After you face death, what was taken away will be returned again -"

"Stay close to death and become strong."

"Return to the border, engage in battle, and manifest the Circle of Elden as you wish."

After listening to Malika's long words, he also reacted, and his eyes became strange: "...Are you planning to make me a fader, and then come back to repair the ring and become the King of Elden?"

"Yes, that's not right either." Malika turned around and faced him with a smile: "Reinhardt, your existence is very special. The blessings in your body now are just a kind of bondage, a law that binds you. , I’m afraid you’ve discovered this yourself, right?”

"..."

Reinhard didn't respond, but Malika was right, he did feel that way.

Logically speaking, his understanding of his laws has now reached a very high level. He is probably not inferior to Lani, but it is a little difficult to fully express it, as if he is stuck. bottleneck.

"When the blessing fades, your sun can be fully revealed, so it's not a bad thing for you to be a faded one."

"Also, although you are close to death, it is not real death. It is just a kind of sleep for you."

"Your law will not let you die like this, and the sun will not go out no matter when."

As she spoke, Malika turned back and looked at the clouds in the direction of the snow-capped mountains.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, the sun disk hangs in the distance. Even if it loses its power, it always hangs there and never disappears.

Reinhard also felt that it made sense, and what Malika said was all for his sake, but for some reason, it always felt weird.

After thinking about it carefully, I found that I had no clue at all, so I gave up the idea and asked again:

"So, what exactly do you want to do? You don't want me to repair the ring and become the King of Elden, right?"

"Yes, I really don't want this. I hope you can use your law to bring back the sun, ban the Elden Ring, and restore peace to the borderland."

Normally, as the owner of Elden's Ring, it would be very unbelievable to say such a thing.

But it was Malika, the goddess of the golden tree, who said these words, and she did so many things that went against the supreme will and the decision of the two fingers, which actually increased her credibility a lot.

What's more, the seriousness in those clear golden eyes showed that she was not joking, but a serious request.

"Okay, let's just treat it like that. What about the reward? I won't give you a job in vain for something like this." Reinhardt said bluntly.

After all, being a faded person is not a good thing. It is an unlucky existence that even wild dogs on the roadside will take a few bites of, and is hostile to almost all forces.

"Don't worry, I have already prepared and will be able to see you when you come back again."

As he spoke, Malika suddenly gasped softly in his ear:
