Carry the Ring of Elden with you

"Everyone will be given a bowl of hot food, and they have to queue up to receive it. Pregnant mothers and breastfeeding mothers have priority, the elderly second, teenagers last, and if there are still living males, they will be further behind." The Greg soldiers who were responsible for distributing food were very skilled. When they were in Duogu City, they were the ones who distributed the rationed food to the unruly people.

Not far away, three homeless knights led from time to time, and cooperated with the mountain demon knights and the king's army to kill the undead hiding in the houses and shadows. The big noises made by these big men made the refugees' eyes panic. I looked over, fearing that they would catch me and eat me if they were hungry.

Seeing that the settlement in Leiden City was gradually completed, Roland breathed a sigh of relief. The dragon soldier was lying on the ground behind him, his eyes constantly looking at the sky, enjoying counting the birds that occasionally flew by.

"Lord Roland, I have brought this undead king." D held Faulkner with his limbs cut off in his hand, threw it to the ground, knelt down on one knee and said respectfully to Roland.

"You don't have to kneel down to me, D. I should express my gratitude to you." Roland was surprised by Faulkner's appearance. He didn't expect that D would simply cut Faulkner into a human stick.

Roland was not thinking about Faulkner, he was simply afraid that Faulkner would die like this.However, judging from Faulkner's excited and resentful expression and his mouth that made a "wow" sound, this undead king was still very much alive.

"Remove the cloth from his mouth. Let me ask him a few questions." Roland waved his hand, and Ikosela behind him immediately stepped forward and pulled off the coarse cloth from Faulkner's mouth.

"Roland, I curse you to a bad death!" The moment he pulled off the cloth, Faulkner's hateful words appeared along with the curse, and the golden tree lowered its golden light to eliminate the curse.

Roland also sneered: "Oh, Faulkner, it seems you are the one who is dying now. Look at your appearance now. Where did that majestic look when you faced me go?"

"That's all because of that stinky bitch Lu Yi!" Faulkner cursed: "She will die just like you!"

Roland raised his eyebrows: "So what happened between you and Lu Yi after that?"

He looked at Faulkner's face and said, "I'm not lying to you either. I will definitely kill you, but I will also kill Lu Yi. So you might as well tell me all the information you know, I asked Lu Yi to go down and keep you company, what do you think?"

Faulkner's face was clouded, and he was actually thinking crazily in his heart. He was not thinking about how to escape, but how to trick Roland before he died.

He pretended to be struggling internally, then showed a tangled face and tangled eyebrows. He was silent for a long time before nodding heavily: "Okay, I agree to your statement. I will tell you all the information I know about Lu Yi."

Roland's eyes narrowed slightly when he looked at Faulkner. After hearing what he said, Roland smiled and nodded happily: "That's right."

Just when Faulkner was filled with joy and wanted to tell the misleading information, Roland suddenly shouted to D behind Faulkner: "Kill him, D!"

Although D was full of doubts after hearing this, he still faithfully carried out Roland's order, and the Holy Law of Death burned the undead soul who should have died long ago with the blessing of the golden tree.

"Ahhhhhhh - Roland!! You are not trustworthy! You have all seen it! He is a moody tyrant. If you follow him, you will be betrayed by him like me!" The pain from his soul made Faulkner cry out in disbelief. With a human cry, he knew that he was about to die soon and began to provoke the people around Roland.

Who knew that after D heard Faulkner's words, he directly increased the ether output of the Holy Law of Death, completely burning Faulkner's undead body to death. A large number of poor souls who were devoured by him showed relief in the golden Holy Law. Emerged from the middle, floating towards the projection of the golden tree.

Looking at Faulkner who turned into a puddle of black ashes on the ground, Roland slowly said to the puddle of black ashes: "No matter what, I will definitely kill Lu Yi, so your information and her past are not the same as mine." not interested."

Remember the warning I mentioned earlier?

--Never believe anything the undead say.

Seeing his enemy die, Roland did not feel any melancholy or confusion in his heart. All he felt was the pleasure of getting revenge.

When he woke up with the help of the system, he thought he could no longer take revenge on Faulkner and Lu Yi personally.

What he never expected was that not only Lu Yi but also Faulkner turned into undead and did not die completely, allowing Roland to kill them personally.

Faulkner was the one who did it, but it was also Roland's order, so rounding it off is that Roland killed Faulkner himself.

Melina, who had been behind Roland, silently held in her hand a ball of man's soul that rose from the black ashes and gradually floated towards the golden tree. She whispered to Roland: "Roland, I'm going to handle my personal affairs. I'll excuse myself for a while, and I'll be back soon."

"Huh? Okay, if you need help with anything, Melina, just tell me." Roland was stunned and nodded in agreement.

Roland, if possible, I would like to know what exactly happened when you came into this world, but you don’t want to mention that sad past to me.

Melina smiled slightly and shook her head, took a few steps back and walked towards a place where Roland could not see.

She spread her hands, and Faulkner's ugly and dirty soul appeared in Melina's palms covered with burn marks.

"Where is this? Who are you?" Faulkner's soul floated. He looked at Melina's face and recognized the girl who had been standing behind Roland: "Are you the woman behind Roland? "

"Hello, my name is Melina. I want to ask you about what Roland has done in this world, and what the lady named 'Lu Yi' did to him?" Melina is neither humble nor overbearing. asked,

Faulkner's soul laughed after hearing this: "Why, do you have a good impression of Roland, that naive idealist? Want to know the story of the woman he married before?"

Then he suddenly said viciously, and his soul turned into a skull: "You just killed my body, why should I tell you?"

"Well, I think so." Melina nodded slightly, and she said politely: "Mr. Faulkner, do you know the purpose of the golden tree above our head?"

The girl didn't wait for Faulkner to answer, and said to herself: "It will accept your souls who have no place to be valuable, cleanse the filth in your souls, and let you enter the next reincarnation with a brand new attitude."

Melina looked at Faulkner's soul and said, "I believe there is reincarnation in Mr. Faulkner's world, right?"

Faulkner didn't understand why Melina wanted to end these things for him, but he still nodded: "There is such a saying, but what is the use of telling me the function of this golden tree?"

Melina replied: "What I want to tell Mr. Faulkner is that even a dirty soul like yours can obtain a stable reincarnation after being washed by the golden tree..."

Faulkner interrupted: "So you want to impress me with the idea of ​​a stable reincarnation in the next life? Let me tell you the information you want to know? Stop joking, unless you help me find a suitable body. Keep me attached, or don’t get me talking.”

"You misunderstood me, Mr. Faulkner." Melina smiled gently, making the girl even more beautiful.

However, Faulkner saw fear in the face of the beautiful girl in front of him.

Melina said softly: "I came to this world and observed it for a long time. It seems that no matter how the body is destroyed, the souls of the people in this world will not dissipate, but are in a wandering state waiting for reincarnation to come. I have never seen this from The many souls you have devoured have also been verified. No matter how many souls you devoured, they will still maintain their appearance, and there is no so-called souls scattered. Mr. Faulkner, if my idea is not wrong, this world is not There is a way to destroy a soul, right?”

Faulkner was stunned. He had not considered this issue at all.

But Melina noticed.

The girl who had been quietly following Roland keenly discovered from Roland that if there was a way to kill the soul in this world, then Lord Roland would not just have his body sealed by the Inquisition.Wouldn't it be safer to kill the soul directly in the body?

"So Mr. Faulkner, what I want to tell you is that I happen to have a method that can completely kill the soul. It can make your soul dissipate forever, without falling into reincarnation or regaining a new life." Melina The left eye that had been closed gradually opened. The dark eyes and the mark of the three claws on the eyelids brought fear from the depths of Faulkner's soul.

She can literally kill souls!Faulkner frantically tried to escape from Melina's hands, but was held tightly by the girl's slender hands.

"You betrayed Lord Roland. He won't care about your next life, but how could I let you go?" Melina's dark eyes stared coldly at Faulkner, and her hands burned black and red. The god-killing flame burned this man's soul to death.

The soul named "Faulkner" completely disappeared from the continent of Salid, and there will no longer be any reincarnation of him in this world.

"For those of you who have harmed Lord Roland, I will personally sacrifice your destined death for you."

Not far away, Roger, who was talking to D, suddenly felt his heart tremble, and looked at the direction Melina had just walked in, shocked.

"What's wrong?" D frowned, but his tone was still concerned about his friend.

Roger came back to his senses and showed an apologetic smile under the magician's hat: "No, it's nothing. I'm sorry, D, I was distracted just now."

Was that the power of the Death Rune just now?

Chapter 20:Three Kingdoms Allied Forces

Melina looked at the black-red flames that were gradually extinguishing in her hands, slowly closed her opened night-colored eyes, and transformed back into that peaceful girl.

She came out of the corner and looked up to see Roger's eyes.

Melina nodded slightly to him, and then returned to Roland silently.

"Melina, are you done so soon?" Roland had just finished instructing D to take the King's Army, which was temporarily idle, to clean up the undead hiding in the city. He felt the movement behind him and turned around to ask.

Melina replied softly: "Well, I just happened to think of something, and it has been taken care of now."

At this time, the big tree guard came over on horseback, with Wylis hanging on the side of the saddle, his hands and feet tied tightly.

When he was still more than ten steps away from Roland, he turned over and dismounted, hung the golden tree shield and golden halberd on the horse, and the three-meter-high body held Hualisi in one hand, as if he was carrying a poultry to be slaughtered.

"Lord Roland, the enemy commander has been captured alive by us and will be handed over to you for execution." The guard of the big tree said loudly and threw Wylis to the ground.

Roland glanced at Wylis who was in a coma with a gray face, and praised the tree guard: "Thank you very much, tree guard. But the battle is not over yet, I will bother you later."

Then Roland went on to give instructions to the homeless knight who had also just returned: "White, you, Fa Zhuang and Arthur are staying in Leiden City to clear out the remaining enemy troops in the city. You must remember that I don't want to live. These soldiers are deciding to attack the Golden Dynasty. You are destined to pay the price the moment you do it. I have left the matter of the undead to D, so you don’t have to worry. I will return to Morn with the big tree guards, 30 Troll Knights and all the Gray Knight Commanders. City, dragon soldiers, I will stay here just in case.”

White had just come over, and he didn't have time to salute, so he hurriedly clasped his fists in agreement, and then turned around to inform the other two homeless knights.

"Uh..." Roland looked at the big tree guard and wanted to call him by his name, but found that he didn't know his name at all, and calling him by the name of the big tree guard seemed a bit too foreign.

The guard of the big tree saw what Roland meant. This man who was more than three meters tall (seven meters tall with man and horse) knelt down on one knee to Roland, beat his heart with his right hand, and said, "Forgive me for being rude, Lord Roland. I have never told you my former name, Fernandi, just call me that in private. In front of outsiders, I also ask Mr. Roland to call me 'Tree Guard', because I have sworn to dedicate myself to The golden tree, guard it with everything you have."

"I didn't expect it to be Mr. Fernandi!" Ikosela behind Roland said in an excited tone: "When we were in the royal city of Rodel, he would often go to the Knight Academy to teach us martial arts and encourage me. "

The big tree guard unexpectedly looked at the Rodel knight behind Roland. Although the Rodel knight's golden helmet obscured Ikosela's beautiful face, the big tree guard still recognized her through her familiar voice.

"Are you... the eldest daughter of the Kulan family?" The tree guard recognized this red-haired woman from his memory who had always aimed to become a tree guard in the Knight Academy.

The face of the big tree guard under the armor also showed a look of nostalgia, and continued: "Really, did you, a little girl, also respond to the call of the golden tree and come to this new world? I remember you were becoming a proud Rodel. The knight was later deprived of his status as a knight of the royal city due to family involvement. The way you are dressed now, is Lord Roland returning your status as a knight of the royal city to you?"

"Yes, our new king Lord Roland has given me the identity of a knight of the royal city again, allowing me to embrace the glory of the past again." Ikosela respectfully replied.

"That's good, but now is not the time for us to reminisce about the past. Lord Roland, please give me an order, and I will neutralize all invading enemies for you." The big tree guard took the initiative to end the conversation between him and Ikosela. Asked Roland.

After hearing what the big tree guard said, Roland recounted his battle plan: "Before I give you an order, I need to explain the current situation to you."

"Our current main enemy country is the Charles Empire. The city of Leiden originally belonged to them. Judging from the population base, it is a quite large city. The former lord of Leiden City, Maren, came to Moren City a few days ago to The city of Leiden is suffering from a natural disaster of the undead. On the surface, it begs me to send troops to rescue it, but in fact, it takes advantage of the lack of troops in my city to send troops to attack the city of Morn."

"But the other party didn't know that we could transfer our troops out of the city silently through the blessing teleportation point in the city. So I used the trick and lied to the Lord of Malen and said that I would send troops to help in three days. Today is what I and the Lord of Malen made. The day we sent out troops. My original intention was to take advantage of the time difference to seize the city of Leiden, but I didn’t expect that there was no army of the Charles Empire ambushing the city of Leiden, and there was even an elite regiment of the Holy Empire of France. Among them." Roland's tone turned cold when he said this.

When this matter is over, Roland will definitely find trouble with the Holy Empire of France.

Of course, this is not an explicit protest.Since the Holy Empire of France dared to send this legion here, it must be ready to abandon them.Protesting openly will only make you look very stupid, and will also make the other party extremely wary.

Roland had learned about the famous Holy Wings Legion from books. If the Holy Empire of France knew that even the Holy Wings Legion had been defeated by him, he might have to spend more money to target them.

Of course, news of the defeat still had to be released.As for how the Holy Wings Legion was defeated?

Roland glanced at Wylis who was unconscious on the ground.

Isn’t there a perfect scapegoat here?At that time, it was said that the commander of the Charles Empire, Wylis, and the leader of the Holy Wing Legion had a conflict due to their different views on the undead disaster in Leiden City, which then turned into a conflict.

And our Golden Dynasty happened to see the two sides fighting together when we were rescuing Leiden City, and out of humanitarianism we went to help the Holy Wings against the Charles Empire.

Unfortunately, all members of the Holy Wings died in battle, and the Golden Dynasty avenged them and wiped out Wylis' army.

When the time comes, sending the remains of the Holy Wing Legion back to the Holy Empire of France will not only disgust those high-ranking figures who took action against Roland.

Then they vigorously promoted the Holy Wings Legion to help the residents of Leiden City to resist the undead natural disaster in spite of Wylis's orders. They could also discredit the Charles Empire and make the people of the Holy Empire of France mute and eat coptis, which made them unspeakable.

It doesn't matter whether the senior leaders of the Holy Empire of France believe Roland or not. The point is that the residents of their country believe in the 'facts' that the Holy Wings Legion selflessly sacrificed themselves to save the city of Leiden from the undead natural disasters in hostile countries.

Of course, it would be better if the Holy Empire of France broke out and told the truth directly. By then, all allies that have formed an alliance with it would have to think about it.

Who knew that the Holy Empire of France, which had just formed an alliance with the Golden Dynasty and was in the honeymoon period, ended up backstabbing them behind their backs?

If this black spot of public opinion is taken advantage of by the Charles Empire again, it may really have an impact on the allies of the Holy Empire of France.

After all, the Charles Empire openly expressed its hostility to the Golden Dynasty and was not afraid of the impact this news would have on itself.

If the Holy Empire of France reveals the deal between them, then the Charles Empire will be really happy.

But other allies who are allied with the Holy Empire of France may be muttering in their hearts: Are you two really fighting or pretending to be fighting? Could it be that you have secretly formed an alliance to deceive us, right?

Therefore, the Holy Empire of France would be very aggrieved no matter what choice it made. On the contrary, if Roland directly protested that the Holy Empire of France was not trustworthy and broke the covenant, there was a high probability that the other party would bite him back.

Roland had already guessed what kind of rhetoric the other party would prepare if he went to protest.

'The Holy Wings Legion is the elite legion we sent to support your Golden Dynasty. As a result, you framed these brave soldiers and tarnished their courage and glory. What is the intention of your Golden Dynasty! '

And the other countries watching the show must have chosen to believe in the Holy Empire of France. Who made the Holy Empire of France and the Empire of Charles lose their minds on the border front now? You said the Holy Empire of France and the Charles Empire Join forces to deal with your little golden dynasty...

Even if you are talking nonsense, you still have to pay attention to whether the Basic Law is good or not.

"But this is just a small accident in the plan. My original intention was to take this opportunity to summon Fernandi, you and the Troll Knights, so the conspiracy between the Charles Empire and the Holy Empire of France is impossible. We succeeded. Now we just need to return to Moren City and eliminate the Charles Empire troops who are trying to attack Moren City."

After listening to Roland's words, the big tree guard 'Fernandi' organized his thoughts and asked curiously: "Lord Roland, why didn't you summon me and those mountain demon knights from the beginning? And the king The battlefield perfumers, Rodel soldiers and other Rodel knights in the city, as well as the eternal golden tree guards who have concluded an ancient contract with the golden tree."

The guard of the big tree paused for a moment, glanced at Ikosela, and then continued: "Why are all the king's troops you called over are the king's army under the command of Grek? Sir Roland, with all due respect. The king's army in the king's city is stronger than these. The king's army exiled from his hometown is much stronger. If you want to face many enemies, the soldiers directly belonging to the royal city Rodel will be your best choice. And I recommend that you directly summon the 'Blessing King'. , in the second battle to defend Rodel, if it were not for the 'Ominous Demon' Malkit under his command, I am afraid that the royal city of Rodel would really fall."

Fernandi's eyes seemed to reflect the huge body and unparalleled martial arts of the evil omen demon who covered his body covered with blasphemy with a robe and slaughtered the heroes of the demigod alliance on the battlefield.

After hearing the words of the big tree guard, Roland thought for a moment and replied: "These things are a bit complicated. The only soldiers I can summon at the moment are the soldiers in the Nimgefu area. There are many more in Moren City that I summoned. Exiled soldiers and homeless knights. You can understand that I need to occupy more territories in order to unlock more units."

As for the 'Evil Omen Demon' Malkit, there is an incarnation of him in Stonewell City. The date of unlocking it should be very close, but I don't know how many ether points it will cost to summon him.

After being reminded by the big tree guard, Roland remembered that there was a [Lion Hybrid] among the previously unlocked rewards from Moren City that he had not summoned.

However, Roland's current military situation does not particularly require the help of lion hybrids, and although the dignitaries in Morn City will not regard those hybrids as humble slaves because of Roland, the deep-rooted discrimination cannot be eliminated temporarily. Eliminated.

Besides, this lion hybrid is most likely the rebel leader of the hybrids in Moren City. If Roland doesn't handle it well, he will most likely start a fire in his own backyard.

After recovering from his thoughts, Roland looked at the big tree guard and continued: "And I have re-blessed these kings' troops who were exiled from their hometown. Now their combat strength is much stronger than before."

The guard of the big tree nodded and approved Roland's words: "This is true. Although the enemy is too weak, these soldiers under Grek are indeed stronger than they were at the border. Lord Roland, you are really a generous and selfless person. The king is actually willing to give the blessings of the golden tree to these exiles equally. Your behavior reminds me of Lord Mikaela, the youngest son of Lord Radagon, the second King of Elden. Treat everyone and everything equally."

Roland was stunned for a moment, not expecting the tree guard to describe him like this.

However, Michaela's legal philosophy is indeed very consistent with Roland's. If he can be summoned, the two parties will definitely become good friends who talk about everything.

"Ahem, I have a lot of interesting questions to ask you about Mikaela after the battle in Morn City is over. The top priority is that I want to take you, the knights of Grek and the Troll Knights back to Morn City. It's not appropriate. Chi, let's leave now." Roland felt very itchy after hearing Michaela's name and wanted to ask the tree guard more about him.

But the matters in Morn City were more important. Roland resisted this thought. He contacted the Golden Tree in his heart and asked it to call back the number of Troll Knights requested by Roland. The guards of the Big Tree went to notify the Grek knights to assemble. .

The mountain demon knights selected by the golden tree came to Roland step by step, and their huge bodies still made the residents of Leiden City very curious.After they discovered that these trolls did not eat humans and did not harm them, they no longer panicked.

When these troll knights came near Roland, they knelt down to Roland to express their gratitude and loyalty to Roland.

I have to say that the scene of 30 huge giants kneeling down to me is quite shocking.
