People in the old man ring, join the chat group

Fortunately, Loretta didn't pay attention to these words, but Finlay, who had been following behind as a guard, suddenly spoke out.

"My lord, please let me go with you on the next road."

"Are you okay? The scarlet corruption below is no joke."

For Finlay who insisted on meeting Marlenia, he subconsciously raised his eyebrows.

Although he also wanted to help Finlay fulfill his last wish, it would be bad if he couldn't resist the thick scarlet corruption halfway and was eroded.

Even if the ashes are already spirit bodies and will not die, the pain of death will still linger on them.

What's more, this time, it's not about strangling Marlenia's fragments of the dharma ring, and there is still a chance to see it.

However, Finlay could see what was in his heart through his eyes, but he had no intention of giving up.

"My lord, don't worry, I am a knight of Zunfu, you will not forget the origin of the name of Zunfu, right?"

Faded: ...?

Slowly put out a question mark.

If it hadn't been for Finlay's reminder, he would have really forgotten the origin of the name Zunfu Knight.

They voluntarily fought side by side with Malenia and accepted the consequences of gradually stepping into corruption, which is the origin of the name of respecting corruption.

However, the current scarlet corruption is no joke...

Finally, under Finlay's gaze, he nodded in agreement with her request.

"Alright then, don't say I don't care about you if you die halfway due to scarlet corruption."

After leaving such a sentence, he set off along the tangled tree trunk towards the scarlet land below.

"Then we're off."

Finlay gestured to Loretta, and then followed him with Millicent.

And Loretta watched them gradually go away and couldn't help muttering to herself:

"I wish you all success..."

285. Millicent's Persistence

As it gradually deepened, the surrounding scarlet corruption became more and more intense, wrapping around the body like a cloud.

Although the faded person seemed to be in peace on the surface, every step he took, he felt that the scarlet corruption in his body seemed to be about to move, a little restless.

"Oh, this damn old disease..."

As in crossing the rotten lake of Knoxtera, it was an old ailment left over from his never-ending cycle.

It has been completely integrated with his body, and even flames cannot completely remove it. It seems to be engraved deep in his soul unless he changes his body.

Fortunately, this power is not subject to endless erosion like Marenia, but only hidden in the corner of the body.

Otherwise, this is a particularly nerve-wracking problem.

Sometimes when I think about it carefully, I feel that my composition is really complicated - a series of complex things such as dragon feast, rune blessing, scarlet corruption, pyroxene magic, ancient dragon prayer, golden tree prayer, Miguel lava magic, etc. What he looks like now.

I really grew up eating 【Baijiafan】...

However, now that the scarlet corruption in his body is restless, what about Finlay and Millicent?

Thinking of this, he inadvertently turned his gaze to the two behind him.

Finlay was fine, he was still in peace, he didn't show any unusual behavior, and he was also watching him, his eyes full of helplessness.

"My lord, do you really want to dress like this to meet Lady Malenia?"

"Well, what's the problem?"

"...you said there was a problem..."

Finlay held his forehead nervously.

Is it a big problem? !

She really didn't know what to say to her master's frank answer.

Just now, not long ago, the Faded One stopped and said she wanted to change clothes. At that time, she didn't pay much attention and turned around.

But when he turned around again, the whole person was stunned.

It never occurred to her that her master had actually put on the armor of the demigod Lataen.

The red lion cloak behind him fluttered slightly, and the bright red long tassels fluttering with the airflow on the ferocious helmet inlaid with fangs were exactly the same as Lady Marenia.

But having long red hair is not only the privilege of Marenia, it also symbolizes [General Broken Star] Lataen.

Today's outfit, coupled with the Broken Star Great Sword used before...

Are you sure you went to Lord Malenia to discuss the alliance, and you didn't seek trouble on purpose?

In fact, the same things that Finlay thought about were also thought by the Faded.

But in the end, he was looking for something.

Negotiating with Marenia is one aspect, but it is also necessary to find a way to curb Marenia's scarlet corruption.

He didn't want to have a nuclear weapon that was constantly spreading radiation around him when he was fighting Rodel King City, so he came up with this method——

Just like in the match between Crying Sand Dunes and Lataen, let the other party make the first move. This way, not only is there a reason to vent on these demigods, but you can also take advantage of the situation to knock Marenia out, and then perform acupuncture treatment .

With Marenia's personality, she would definitely be fooled.

puff-

At this moment, an accident happened suddenly.

"Hey, are you okay?"

"Miss Millicent?!"

Millicent suddenly knelt on the ground, so frightened that he and Finlay rushed over to help her, only to find that her forehead had been soaked in sweat, and fine beads of sweat stuck to her fiery red hair sticking to her face.

But even so, anyone could see that she was holding on for dear life. The holy blade connected to Lian Yi's hand was probably unable to be lifted now, but she still squeezed out a smile and said: "...I'm fine."

"Still saying it's okay?!"

The fader's voice couldn't help but get a little louder, but after seeing Millicent's exhausted look, he finally softened.

"Don't hold on anymore, go back, go back to the top, and I will take Marlenia to see you in person in a while."

He was sure that if this continued, let alone seeing Marlenia, even the sisters guarding the door would probably die on the way before they saw anyone.

But even so, Millicent knew this in her heart, but she still rejected his proposal.

"No, I'm going to see her, in person....I don't want to give up here...."

This persistent look made Finlay's vision gradually blurred, and gradually overlapped with Lady Marenia's figure again.

She still remembered that during the Shattered War, Lady Malenia led their rotten knights south to Gaelid in this way.

Even when faced with a large number of red lion soldiers and red lion knights, they still had no intention of shrinking back. Instead, they took the lead and charged into the enemy group, dancing like water birds to harvest the lives of the enemies.

Until the blood stained the armor, the prosthetic hand that was shot down was put back on the arm again and again, and the prosthetic hand that raised the holy blade trembled slightly, but there was still no thought of giving up.

Until the fight to the death with [General Broken Star] Lataen.

That majestic appearance, the noble posture that refuses to give up even in any desperate situation, is still clearly engraved in the depths of her soul until now.

"Come on, Miss Millicent, I'll take you to see Lady Malenia."

With that said, Finlay helped Millicent up, ready to move on.

This move also received puzzled looks from those who faded.

"Finlay, what do you mean? Her body won't allow it to go on."

"I know."

Finlay responded softly, and his footsteps did not mean to stop. The moment he passed by him, Finlay suddenly spoke again:

"But this is Miss Millicent's wish, and as a subject, I should help her realize it.

I'm sorry, my lord, but this time, I'll forgive Finley for making his own decisions. I must bring Miss Millicent to see Lady Malenia. "

Leaving only such a sentence, he slowly walked down the tree trunk step by step.

Seeing the backs of the two, for some reason, he suddenly wanted to laugh.

But in fact, he did so, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

But this is not a mockery, but a gratified smile.

It was the first time he had seen Finlay make such a decision on his own, but he was not angry, on the contrary, he was very happy.

At least this shows that Finlay is not his puppet, but a living existence.

but....

"How long can Millicent's body last?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown. The current situation can be said to be extremely bad.

But in the end, he didn't stop them and chose to follow their footsteps.

"Since Millicent chose this way, I will naturally accompany her to the end."

-------------------------------------

— creak, creak

Nearly decayed trees made faint sounds.

I don't know how long they walked, but they finally approached the corrupt lake gradually.

If his memory was correct, this was where Millicent and her sisters had been buried every time.

However, this time, she did not see her little sisters. Instead, there were four budding scarlet flowers floating on the lake, and four weapons were scattered beside them.

The true face of these flowers is also ready to be revealed——

It was Millicent's four sisters.

Bursts of scarlet mist are slowly spewing out from the stamens, wriggling slowly as if possessing life.

Seeing the arrival of Millicent, the squirming became more intense, as if welcoming the arrival of their last sister.

This can't help but remind him of the old bug sage Guwei's request to him——

Asking him to kill Millicent with his own hands, the betrayal from a trusted person will nourish the flower buds, and this despair is the key to making the flower buds bloom into delicate flowers.

"When Lady Malenia becomes a goddess, Millicent will be reborn as a scarlet Valkyrie."

"Shit! Sure enough, as long as it's a bug, there's nothing good about it!"

It seemed that he thought of an equally disgusting old bug, which made him swear.

And Millicent also saw the bright flowers floating on the corruption lake, as if resonating, the relationship with Marenia suddenly became clear, and the voice in her body became clearer.

At this moment, she completely understood the meaning of her existence——

In this way, the corruption withered into a flower, allowing Marlenia to transform into the goddess of corruption.

"...I don't want... If I were to bloom into something other than myself, I'd rather rot into nothingness as I do now."

Millicent gritted her silver teeth angrily, and slowly moved towards the open entrance beside the corruption lake.

One step, two steps...

It's almost here...

"...I must use the will that Marenia held in the past...to face the whisper of scarlet corruption...the self-esteem as a human being against it...and to fight against Lataen All the precepts that I did not hesitate to break, one by one...return to her..."

"Also, I have not repaid the Faded One's kindness..."

This is like the pillar of her soul supporting her consciousness, but her exhausted body can no longer support her actions.

"Cough-cough cough!"

A mouthful of blood spewed out, like the scarlet flower falling to the ground and withering.

And her whole body seemed to lose all strength, and she fell to the ground with a plop.
