"as……"
El longed for the northern birds that perched by the window.
She smiled and said, "Wandering birds, you are free."
"I cannot restrict you because of my own needs."
"My lord!" Dongshan Hong placed his hand on his chest and said firmly, "Please believe me, when the time is right, I will tell you everything about the East."
【Ah...ah! ? ? This...】
"Hey, narrator, you saw it too, I didn't intend to touch the Eastern subplot!" Elsie glanced sideways at the narrator pop-up window beside her.
[Holy crap! Why, why is this happening?! There are side quests here?!]
[This isn't right! The outline for the Eastern subplot isn't here! (Sound of turning pages) Ouch... This... Who tore up my outline?!?!]
"Things have come to this, and that's how it is."
As the moonlight fell, Dongshan Hong led a group of mercenaries from the Merchant Alliance to join the defenses of Aovic City.
Elsie also arranged rooms for them to stay in the castle, and even Alcado remarked that his castle was much more lively than usual.
She had just finished washing up and was reading by the moonlight.
Have you been enjoying reading lately?
"Hmm, I still know too little about this continent." Elsie gently brushed the pages of the book.
"Who can know how many hardships the creator went through behind these understated statements of adventure?"
Alright, enough with the sentimentality, let's get down to business.
"Serious business? You mean all those side quests I've been doing lately?" Elsie complained.
The main storyline now is to kill Ellen and annihilate the Sanctuary.
Side quests include: Sia's Journey to the North, The Mystery of the East, Tilan's Guidance, When the Hell Are You Coming, Kaomi, Where Are You, Blood Curse...
[Ahem, speaking of the Blood Children, your progress on the curse has stalled recently.]
"Huh? It stopped!?" Elsie was taken aback.
[Child of Blood (Curse Progress 0%)]
"Hiss—" Elsie gasped and then fell into thought.
Could it be... that Keomi's story has come to an end?
He only appeared twice and then disappeared?
So this is also the Blood Crown's reversal characteristic? It directly reversed Keomi's fate!!!
Good heavens, could it be related to the last time the Blood Crown awakened?
Do you think so too?
My outline here has been torn up, so I can no longer provide specific guidance on the subsequent path.
[But it's a good thing Keomi isn't coming; your story will definitely have a happy ending, which is great.]
"Hmm." Elsie seemed to have thought of something and was about to speak when a wisp of white mist suddenly rose from her chest!
"Elsie! Come quick!!!"
It's the summons of the nameless skeleton!!!
Could it be... something bad has happened!?
...
As the scene shifted, she saw several empty thrones, the blood-stained thrones shocking her young heart.
First, there's the Immortal Crown in the far corner, where the quiet gargoyle Visemmo has vanished.
Secondly, there was Zhi Ge, the owner of the shattered jade crown, who also disappeared without a trace; the blood on the throne was terrifying.
Dosa, the owner of the Golden Crown of Greed, had dozens of piercing wounds on his huge pigman body. The hellfire seemed to be stimulating his flesh and blood to regenerate, but the invisible energy there was constantly eroding his life!
Dosa clenched his fists, his body trembling slightly, and gritted his teeth to endure the pain.
Next was Leoniro, her eyes filled with fear, her body trembling uncontrollably.
The last one is the nameless skeleton, whose soul fire is extremely unstable!
“As expected, Elsie,” the nameless man said weakly. “When we are in dire straits, it is also your favorable situation.”
“If you’re here to incite my hatred, then there’s no need for this meeting, is there?” Elsie said to Nameless.
Hey! You finally said what was on your mind!!!
"I should have said that sooner." El wanted to address the three remaining kings besides himself.
The so-called seven-crown court now only has four crowns left, and two of them are crippled and one is injured!
"So, what exactly happened?"
“It’s Black Crown, he’s here…” Nameless sighed, gazing in the direction of the Immortal Stone Crown.
“Visemor was too reclusive. He concealed the fact that he killed Keomi and went to face Keomi in Phase Four alone.”
"When I found him, all that was left was his indestructible outer shell; his internal organs were completely shattered."
Wuming glanced again at the spot where Zhige had once sat, a hint of sadness flickering in his eyes.
Clearly, Zhi Ge also met with misfortune; he ultimately failed to break through the Jade Crown and survive past the third stage... Damn! Why has the Jade Crown always aimed for the third stage? Is its goal really that small?
“Visenmo and the Immortal Dragon King did not die unjustly.” Dosa clutched his wound in pain as he looked at the Nameless and Leoniro.
"I fought against Keomi in his fourth phase, although it was Keomi in his tyrannical phase."
“But his power has surpassed that of all the enemies I have ever encountered.”
As he spoke, a large amount of lava gushed from his wound, and he looked pained.
“Elsie, you’ve already witnessed the aura that Keomi used during Rivist’s battle,” the nameless man said. “The third stage of Keomi also features an enhanced aura.”
"He can transform Qi into all sorts of abilities; it's as if he truly is the source of all things!"
"Like... the World Tree that evolved all things?"
"I don't know about their relationship, but!"
"Elsie, air is the key to killing the king!"
The nameless man said seriously, "The crown suppresses all the power of the world and belongs to the ruling class."
"But Qi, that unacknowledged, mysterious power, is becoming the sharp blade of the Slaughtering Crown."
"The energy is developing in a direction that will restrain the crown!"
Nameless revealed the wounds on his bones, injuries caused by Keomi's Qi power, which even his Soul Flame could not repair!
Even with the power of the crown, it only made Wuming feel slightly better; it couldn't cure him completely, just like... a virus.
"Elsie, I... I sacrificed my entire army," the nameless man said, head bowed. "All I have left is Soul Abyss, Elsie!"
"I might not live to see the next one."
“Me too.” Dosa covered his face in despair: “In the fourth stage, Keomi developed runes using air.”
"That annihilation property is one of the reasons that killed the Immortal Dragon King."
"besides……"
Dosa exclaimed in horror, "He can fly."
"!!!!" Elsie was shocked; she couldn't understand what Dosa meant.
It can fly!?
How could a mere zombie like Keomi possibly fly! Wait a minute...
El looked at the terror in Dosa's eyes, confirming that Keomi could indeed fly.
After all, something that would shock even Dosa must have happened!
"My men have not been lost, but I am no longer capable of dealing with the next Keomi."
Dosa's face was filled with despair: "He'll come! I can feel it! He'll come!"
"Phase Five..."
