Carry the Ring of Elden with you

When the blessing of the golden tree filled the body of the noble and powerful again and restored him to a middle-aged man, Roland stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"Why was I turned into a candlestick?" The middle-aged male dignitary looked confused, shook his head, and said to Roland apologetically: "I'm very sorry, I have no memory after losing the blessing, I really can't answer Your problem."

"That's it." Roland nodded at him: "Then you go and take a rest. Someone will come over and tell you what happened later."

At this time, Greg came over and said, "I remember you. You were a noble who wandered to Stonewell City with me. Do you still remember where you were when you last lost your memory?"

The middle-aged male dignitary first had an expression of "Who are you?", and then he immediately recognized the other person's identity from Greg's clothes and slightly familiar appearance, and he was about to kneel down with a look of fear.

Greg held his shoulders and stopped the male dignitary from kneeling down. He glanced at Roland and then said to the male dignitary: "The new Lord Will of the Golden Tree is not allowed to kneel to others at will, so you also No need to kneel down to me, just answer my questions."

"Yes, Sir Greg." The powerful man replied respectfully: "I remember that the last scene I remembered was following others on an empty street on the Nimgefu Plains and walking towards the direction of Morn City. "

Greg nodded: "Well, you go down first."

When the male noble went to the blessing teleportation point and disappeared under the guidance of the King's Army brought by Roland, Greg said to Roland: "It seems that he was deliberately driven here and turned into a candlestick using magic, and... …”

Greg looked around the indoor environment of the small room at the side door, and then said: "And there should be many people here who were turned into objects like him. Who did this and what was the purpose?"

Roland said to Greg: "Do you remember the experiment that Neferi Lu said? I think these should all be the work of [Sir Bai Zhi]. He seems to have guessed what kind of creatures I summoned from here. restrictions, so I came up with this method.”

At this moment, Roland's mind was being harassed by the system's crazy language bombardment.

[This is simply a BUG! !Still a very serious and vicious BUG! ! ! !Complain and complain about this system! 】

Roland selectively ignored the commotion of the system and turned his attention to Malkit who came back from the main entrance.

"Sure enough, as I suspected, all the soldiers in Stonewell City are gone, including those who were originally waiting next to the bed crossbow. In contrast, there are many more wooden stakes placed there for no reason, etc. Debris, I suspect that they have all been transformed into these things by someone using magic. Moreover, there are many traces of battles in the city. I am afraid that someone specially hired a group of excellent warriors to subdue these soldiers."

Greg had an anxious expression on his face, but he didn't make a sound.

He was worried whether his two descendants of the 'limb-replacement' nobles would be harmed by this group of people who broke into Stonewell City.

Malkit continued: "Now there are wooden boxes, candlesticks, books and shrubs everywhere in Stonewell City. Roland, you have to send soldiers here to remove the magic of these people and change them back to their original appearance. I After a rough estimate, I'm afraid it's not just the exiled soldiers stationed in Stonewell City, but also many soldiers and civilians who were driven from other places."

He looked at Roland: "If nothing else, the person you call [Sir Bai Zhi] can be said to have given you a great gift."

Roland nodded in agreement.

At this time, Neferi Lu, who went to check the underground in Stonewell City, also came back.

"Neferi, have you found any information?" Roland asked immediately. He was more concerned about whether the terrifying face of the dead prince underground in Stonewell City was still there. If he was there, he could only temporarily remove the terrifying face of the dead prince underground in Stonewell City. The area is sealed to temporarily prevent outsiders from entering.

"Don't worry, my friend." Nephili Lu patted Roland on the shoulder: "The horrific wreckage was not summoned by you, and even the corrupt tree spirit that was originally staying at the bottom of Stonewell City was not summoned by you. Didn’t follow either.”

Roland couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Neferi Lu's assurance.

Otherwise, he was really afraid of what might happen to the corpse of the dead prince. You know, Roger was cursed to death after just a brief investigation.

Although the faded person played by the player in the game has no problem jumping on Cha Cha and writing messages on it, Roland cannot guarantee that there will be no problems in such close contact in reality.

"But I saw a lot of fresh blood at the bottom of the elevator, and there were no people who were turned into debris." Neferi Lu continued: "I'm afraid it's the Crucible Knight, but I didn't Seeing the figure of the Furnace Knight, he probably did not come with Stonewell City."

[If the Furnace Knight also comes through this kind of stuck bug, this system will really have to self-check and report it to the manufacturer to complain about you! 】The system is still noisy.

"Tsk, what a pity." Roland clicked his tongue in his heart.

Then he cheered up and said to Neferi Lu: "It is better to restore these people who have been turned into debris first, and Stonewell City also needs to be cleaned, at least the broken limbs hanging in the dining area of ​​the castle The arms and the corpses piled up in the side room need to be dealt with."

After hearing what Roland said, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Greg's face. He coughed lightly and said, "I will personally deal with these mistakes I have made."

Neferi Lu moved her body, took out her axe, and then tried swinging it in the air a few times.

Then the female warrior saw the strange looks in Roland and others' eyes, and said matter-of-factly: "Didn't you say that these people who have been enchanted can be restored to their original state? I remember that this kind of magic can be broken with a little external force, right? Why don't I just summon the storm?"

After Neferi Lu finished speaking, she rushed out resolutely before Roland could react.

"Do all storm kings have this kind of personality?" Greg felt the sudden strong wind blowing outside and asked after a moment of silence.

Malkit didn't say anything because he felt that Neferi Lu's reckless character was a bit like his father.

"There are really many people who have been turned into objects, Roland!" Neferi Lu's voice made Roland run out immediately. At the same time, he asked Greg to go to Morn City to mobilize a group of kings' troops to help count [Sir Bai Zhi] How many people have been sent here using this trick?

Soon after.

"This is really a timely and generous gift for me." Roland said with emotion as he watched the city of Stonewell change from quiet and deserted to bustling with people.

After counting the number of people, Greg said to Roland: "Everything has been counted. The faded one you call 'Hundred Wisdom' should have sent all my king's troops into Stonewell City. There are 30541 people in total, including There are 1995 knight captains serving me, 12480 soldiers in the royal army, and 16066 remaining auxiliary soldiers."

The auxiliary soldiers are the kind of soldiers you often encounter in the game. They only wear a suit of cotton armor and a round steel helmet on their heads and look like miscellaneous soldiers.

They are generally not responsible for charging and killing the enemy, but assisting the king's army from the side. For example, they can often be seen next to catapults, ballistas, or beside simple inns.

Although the combat effectiveness of these auxiliary soldiers is not as strong as the monarch's army, their arrival can completely get rid of the monarch's army from chores.

On the other side, Neferi Lu also nodded to Roland: "Exiled soldiers... no, they are called storm soldiers now. There are 42130 storm soldiers in total, but the storm knights (also known as the lost knights) should have been summoned by you in advance. So there’s nothing new.”

Hearing the words of Greg and Neferi Lu, Roland couldn't help but look happy.

Counting all the armies in Morn City, Hyde Fortress, Leiden City and Pring City, the number of Roland's troops currently totals about 13. From now on, he will no longer be afraid of people from the Holy Empire of France or the Empire of Charles. Naval tactics.

And all of these 13 soldiers are soldiers with extremely high military qualities from the border area, not counting the soldiers Roland has recruited from the mainland in recent months.

However, the result of the sudden surge in the number of soldiers was that the food that Roland finally grabbed from Pulin City was about to run out again, and Roland was even hearing the excited voice of Kenneth Hyde in his ears.

It's also a credit to [Sir Bai Zhi] that he didn't have the heart to send over all the troll knights wandering on the hillside outside Stonewell City, otherwise Roland might have been directly eaten up and bankrupted by these newcomers.

Of course, the soldiers alone would definitely not consume so much food. The focus was on the many civilians and dignitaries who were sent.

"245087 ordinary residents." Roland showed a conflicting expression of happiness and pain, worrying about the placement of these residents.

The golden tree has given its blessings to the soldiers and residents in Stonewell City. At this moment, their eyes were looking at Roland and others who were standing on a high platform.It's just that the eyes of Greg's royal army and the residents were focused on Roland and Greg, while the exiled soldiers looked even more excitedly at Neferi Lu, who was filled with the power of the storm.

Malkit did not come forward with Roland and the others. Even though Roland strongly tried to persuade him to stay, he still refused.

The reason Malkit gave is: It is not suitable for the Son of Omen to appear openly in front of these soldiers and residents who have not yet understood the situation. Getting close to me rashly will only shake their faith in the golden tree. , even if you, Roland, can now be said to be the owner of the golden tree.

Seeing what Malkit said, Roland gave up with a helpless expression.

After settling these soldiers and civilians, he planned to immediately go back and send people to record the true situation of the Son of Evil Omen and the achievements of [Evil Omen Demon Ghost] Malkit in guarding the royal city Rodel many times in a book, so that "Evil Omen is an unknown person". "Curse", a saying that was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people during the Golden Tree period, has gradually changed.Roland did not expect the people of the Golden Tree to accept everything about the bad omen in the short term, but at least he hoped that these people would no longer reject the bad omen as before.

The 24.5 residents can be settled on the spot in the residential area of ​​Stonewell City. Roland and others were busy until midnight, mobilizing food reserves, arranging city walls, and patrolling guards. It was not until the lights came on that the lights in Stonewell City were temporarily announced. a paragraph.

Roland naturally decided that the place to entertain representatives and envoys from various countries would be at the place where he had fought against Greg.

The narrow square in the game looks extremely grand in reality. The Storm King's throne room is located at the back of the castle and within the towering city walls. It is the most magnificent building in the entire castle and one of the most important places in Stonewell City. .

The ceiling of the hall is so high, supported by rows of tall pillars. The tops of these pillars are carved with the coat of arms of the golden tree, which makes people shocked.The hall is filled with statues of Golden Tree believers from all corners. A beautifully carved solid wood throne is placed quietly in the hall. The burning torch illuminates the faces of King Godfrey and [Beast Prime Minister] Throthio on the stone wall. stone carving.

This hall seems to carry all the glory and dignity of Stonewell City, looking magnificent and solemn.It is the best place to welcome envoys from various countries, demonstrating the powerful strength of the Golden Dynasty and letting the world feel the solemnity and majesty of this country.

"Doesn't this statue need to be replaced?" Nephili Lu asked, pointing to the stone sculptures of Godfrey and Serothio.

Roland shook his head, looked at the aged sculpture and said, "No, the statue of Godfrey can just allow those envoys to think about the past history of our Golden Dynasty, and the Godfrey paintings in the dining hall should not be removed. "

Then he said regretfully: "It would be great if we could also get life-size paintings of Malika and Radagan that are as big as each other. We can fool many envoys who like to use imagination."

Nephili Lu curled her lips, looked at the black flags floating outside and said, "It always feels like everything related to the Storm King in Stonewell City has disappeared, and everything has been replaced by Godfrey's Lion War Flag."

Roland looked at Neferi Lu and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Does anyone in your Storm Legion remember the appearance of the Storm King?"

Neferi Lu was stunned for a moment and said: "There should be, otherwise they wouldn't welcome me as the new Storm King so much. Why do you suddenly ask this?"

Roland happily patted Neferi Lu's exposed, wheat-colored, strong shoulders and said, "Of course, let the painter paint a portrait of the former Storm King and you! In that case, these are sent here There must be people among the civilians who can draw the portraits of Mallika and Radagon. Well, at that time, these portraits were hung in the dining room. We didn’t need to say anything, and the messengers would figure it out on their own. A lot of complicated stuff comes out.”

Neferi Lu thought carefully about what Roland said, but the female warrior finally shook her head and showed a troubled expression: "You smart people, sometimes your thoughts are really difficult to understand. Anyway, I just do what you say." .”

Roland smiled and said nothing, and then saw Malkit holding a good-looking strange woman over and showing curious eyes.

"Mont...Malkit, what did she commit?" Roland asked.

Malkit threw it to the ground unceremoniously and said to Roland: "This person has been sneaking around the city since daytime, but I kept watching her secretly without doing anything, and I saw that she just I wanted to follow you, and I wanted to kill her for fear of something happening. But her steps were really weird, and she shouted that she wanted to see Roland to get the reward, so I took advantage of her and captured her alive to see what she had to say. I want to tell you."

Roland looked at Youan whose mouth was gagged with a strip of cloth on the ground, and stepped forward to remove the strip of cloth.

Roland, who had obtained the Great Rune of Grek, had recovered part of his strength. He was no longer the weak man who had no power to restrain a chicken. Naturally, he was not afraid of such little thieves.

"The letter is in my right pocket. Who is Roland? Sir Bai Zhi said that if I deliver the letter to him personally, there will be a very generous reward." Youan said quickly, fearing that Malkit behind him would do something to him. one time.

She still knew the name of the evil omen demon and ghost, so she was naturally in awe.

Roland did not directly answer Youan's words, but took out a letter from the right pocket of her jacket that seemed to have been written not long ago. The paint on the letter was covered with Sir Baichi's unique one-eyed pattern.

Chapter 1: Mission from the Holy Empire of France

Roland quickly read the letter sent to him by [Sir Baizhi] and understood everything he had done.

"Malkit, untie her." Roland waved his hand: "She is indeed someone sent by Baizhi, and she is not a threat to us."

Malkit raised the magic staff in his hand and cut the rope binding Youan with a single wave.

The latter rubbed his wrists and stood up. Roland took the initiative and said: "Baizhi did not arrange a job for you here, and I will not force you to do anything. I will do whatever you want after giving you the reward mentioned in the letter." Everything is your freedom, as long as you don't do anything harmful to the golden tree."

Youan nodded silently, and then followed Malkit away with caution under Roland's instructions.

Nephili Lu looked at Roland curiously, hesitated and asked: "[Sir Bai Zhi]... what did he say in the letter?"

Roland shrugged: "It's nothing more than telling me about some of his follow-up plans. He is sending his men to look for [Moon Princess] Lani in Lijenia, and plans to cooperate with the other party to bring the soldiers of Kallia They will also be sent over."

Then Roland said: "It's getting late, Neferi, you go and rest first. I'll go and take a rest after I finish arranging the rest of the things."

The female warrior nodded, and after her figure disappeared, Roland covered his forehead and let out a slight sigh.

"I'm afraid the letter said more than that, right?" Melina's gentle figure came from behind, and then came to Roland's side.

Roland's expression relaxed and he nodded.He turned his head and said to Melina: "Well, the letter also mentioned something about the Outer Gods. As I summoned more and more buildings in Nimgefu, the lurking Outer Gods gradually became active. stand up."

After Melina heard the word "outer god", her gentle expression instantly turned cold, but she returned to her original state when she looked at Roland.

She waited quietly for Roland's words.

"The most obviously active ones are the Mother of Truth and the God of Epilepsy." Roland said: "In the letter, Bai Zhi mentioned that his people encountered the invasion of the Faded Ones who were awarded [Pure Blood Knights] by the Blood Dynasty. , the losses were relatively heavy.”

Then Roland's words became solemn: "The other thing is that one of the faders he sent to Lienia met a witch who claimed to be 'Haida'."

"Haida." Melina's closed eye subconsciously opened.

Of course she remembered the name, Madness Witch. In a certain reincarnation, she watched Roland being induced bit by bit to become the King of Madness.

"Well, I need to check with Edgar to confirm Irena's condition when I return to Moren City later." Roland also said in a solemn tone. Haida first appeared at the cliff of Panghu behind Stonewell City. On the other hand, he only recovered the memories of Nimgofu and the Weeping Peninsula, but he had no memory of "Haida".

But Roland still remembers everything that happened in the game. As long as it can be confirmed that Edgar's daughter Irena is okay, then it can be confirmed that "Haida" is actually a parasite that lives on other people like "Chapolili" .

Roland then frowned, because he suddenly thought of Chapolili, which also reminded Roland of another old friend of his, [Bloodfinger Hunter] Yura.

Melina's voice recalled Roland from her memory, and she said softly: "Don't worry, I will destroy the God of Epilepsy and his followers."

Roland nodded, and then said: "But these are things that happened in the border area, and they will not affect us here for the time being. I will first arrange for the storm soldiers to simply clean up and fill in the outer walls of Stonewell City. Those who grew up because of the dead prince I will let the golden tree suppress the cursed power above the thorns."

Melina smiled: "Not only the outer city walls need to be cleaned, but there are also many roads in the city that have been damaged because no one has repaired them for many years. Weeds and dust have accumulated and have to be cleaned by hand."

Roland smiled bitterly and said: "Listening to what you said, there are still many things to be busy with. No, we must send people to clean up immediately. I have to prepare before the envoys from various countries arrive. In short, I must first arrange the soldiers to envoys Clean the house you want to live in. Well, it looks like I'm going to have to stay up all night tonight."

Ever since, under Roland's arrangement, the Golden Dynasty began to repair and clean up Stonewell City. Fortunately, many of the residents sent over by [Sir Bai Zhi] were dedicated to doing this work, which greatly relieved the pressure. The repairs to Stonewell City were completed before the time specified in the letters sent by Roland to various countries.

Time also flew by quickly, and on the day Roland set the time, envoys from various countries also arrived in front of Stonewell City.

The envoys from the Holy Empire of France were the first ones to arrive. When they saw the standing Stonewell City in the distance, even the second prince Noel, who thought he was used to seeing big scenes, was shocked to the point of being unable to stand for a long time. speech.

Since the buildings in Stonewell City have a height difference in the border area, the system appropriately summons part of the terrain when summoning them.

Therefore, in the eyes of Noel and the others, Stonewell City seemed to stand on a high cliff, slowly glowing under the dazzling light of the golden tree.

The Holy Empire of France's mission this time still included Pegasus knights and holy armor soldiers, but the combat effectiveness of these Pegasus knights and holy armor soldiers was much stronger than what they had encountered before.After all, the two princes of his country are here, so it's not enough if the guard force is not strong.

At this time, Noel and his brother Victoria were sitting in an exquisite carriage, looking at the towering city in the distance through the window on the carriage.

The holy armored soldiers were wearing shining white-gold magical armor and were meticulously arranged in a neat formation. They stood there, riding horses and raising the flag of the Holy Empire of France.Their bodies were wrapped in armor, as tall as iron towers, exuding a firm aura.

They were silent, guarding the gorgeous carriage of the second prince Noel and the third prince Victoria as they moved forward slowly. This group of elite soldiers embodies the unparalleled strength of the Holy Empire of France.Everyone acted with the proudest attitude, exuding elegance and solemnity, as if injecting new brilliance into the glory of the empire.

High in the sky of the Holy Empire Mission of France, a group of beautiful and capable Pegasus knights showed their world-famous confidence and strength.These brave knights, riding proud Pegasus, soar in the air, constantly scouting and alerting the surrounding environment.

They were dressed in gorgeous armor and held long spears for aerial combat.The Pegasus knights stand tall and straight, spreading their wings wantonly, showing their majestic grace in the sun.The powerful hooves of horses shuttled through the air, and the whistling and chirping lingered in my ears, as free as birds.

These Pegasus knights are composed of veterans who have served for more than three years. They have amazing courage, excellent fighting skills and extremely virtuous beauty. They are a terrifying fighting machine and a beautiful scenery.Wherever they passed, they not only left behind beauty and splendor, but also demonstrated unrivaled power and might.

But both the brave Holy Armor soldiers and the beautiful Pegasus knights were overshadowed by the huge Stonewell City.

Noel even subconsciously calculated how many soldiers of the Holy Empire of France would need to be sacrificed to break it.

"Oh!!! Such a big and high city! Our capital doesn't even have such high walls!" Compared with Noel, Victoria seemed much more heartless, and all he saw was the magnificent scene. Excitement and yearning.

As for the fifth princess Evangelion, she remained silent, but her beautiful pupils were filled with shock.

As the French Holy Empire mission approaches, the appearance of Stonewell City becomes clearer.
