A faint smell of sulfur came.
After the three people walked for a while, the view in front of them became much wider and they saw a large number of burned corpses, piled up together to form small hills.
"There are probably several thousand people here." Su Ziyu looked at the pile of corpses in front of him and reached out to pick up a pure gold wine glass.
All I saw was gold.
According to a rough estimate, the gold and silver here alone weigh several tons. Unfortunately, there is still a lot of gold in his private space. It is useless to take too much of these things. There are more gold, silver and jewelry in the City of Sin than anywhere else. You will accidentally step on them when you walk, but unfortunately they are all ordinary gold and silver utensils, and there are no rare items included.
After walking for a while, the disgusting monster crawling on the ground appeared in sight again.
These giants seemed to have their heads chopped off and two hands attached to their necks. Their huge bodies pounced on us fiercely, and the mucus dripping from their eyeballs seemed to be poisonous. The group tried their best to avoid them.
——"Shit Block (Rare Item): A block of shit containing extremely poisonous substances that can be thrown at enemies. It is said that it can be found on the bodies of some giants."
Two or three pieces of poisonous shit will drop from a giant's body.
It only took Su Ziyu ten minutes to collect a lot, but it was a pity that these rare items were really not worth showing off.
As I was walking, a flash of fire seemed to appear in front of me.
Next second.
A huge black shadow descended from the sky, with its huge wings spread out to block the road. In its hand, it held a spear that was burning like a torch. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a statue discovered before. It came to life at some point and turned into a menacing gargoyle.
Ding ding ding!
There was a sudden flash of fire.
The three of them reacted very quickly and attacked almost at the same time, but this enemy was really thick-skinned and tough, and sparks flew when they chopped at him with their swords, but only a few scratches were left on the gargoyle's body.
A strong wind blows!
The gargoyle swung a huge torch spear and swept it across. Then it spread its wings and spiraled up into the sky, quickly swinging its weapon and smashing it down.
Su Ziyu and Sister Friede dodged at the same time, while the Onion Knight raised his greatsword to block the opponent's attack head-on.
“Hmm!”
"What a strong force!..." The Onion Knight took a step back and said.
clang.
Su Ziyu took out the dragon hunting spear and stabbed it fiercely. The wings behind the gargoyle instantly bent and protected in front of its body. It actually used its wings as a shield to block the attack. However, it underestimated the sharpness of the dragon hunting spear, and a crack suddenly appeared on its hard wings.
Sister Friede's figure suddenly disappeared, and when she reappeared, she was already behind the enemy. She swung the huge sickle down, and with a flash of cold light, half of the gargoyle's head was chopped off.
Its nearly four-meter-tall body twitched, then slowly fell down and turned into a pile of rubble.
"A creation of ancient magic."
Sister Friede picked up a ball of soul and threw it over, saying, "There may be more than one here."
"Be careful!" Su Ziyu suddenly shouted.
Not far away.
Suddenly a ball of fire shot out, but upon closer inspection it was a white shadow that flashed in the corner. Sister Friede reacted quickly and rolled to Su Ziyu's side, while the Onion Knight also took out his heavy shield.
Another ball of fire came.
This time they finally saw the enemy's appearance clearly. They were three strange women dressed in white, holding a small lantern in their hands, emitting an ominous glow of fire.
"Who is this?" Su Ziyu frowned slightly, wanting to have a conversation with the other party.
I just don’t know if he is a normal person. Can we communicate with each other?
The three women in white walked lightly, with strange silver and gold masks on their faces, the same masks worn by the leper king in the movie. A faint light was emitted from their pupils. They floated over without saying a word, their tattered white robes swaying slightly. When the distance was shortened, they suddenly accelerated and stabbed over with a sharp ritual dagger in their right hand.
"There are no normal living people in the City of Sin anymore." Sister Friede said, and then she flew out, swinging a huge sickle and slashing at a maid's head.
Sparks are flying.
Along with a fluttering white hood, a maid's head was chopped off by Sister Friede, and the strange silver mask also fell off. Su Ziyu saw a face that was burned beyond recognition.
It has already completely turned into a zombie.
The death of their companion did not frighten these maids in white. They approached quickly, wielding daggers and attacking frantically. After making a strange sound, they could summon a ball of burning flame, which seemed to be summoned from the lanterns in their hands. However, it was just an ordinary prop. The only special thing was the eternal flame inside.
The battle didn't last long.
The three men quickly dealt with the maids. Su Ziyu took off the metal mask of each of them and took a closer look to make sure that none of them was a normal living person.
They were all burned.
But for some reason it was not burned into the charcoal pile of corpses outside.
"We should be there soon." The Onion Knight's voice was extremely solemn, and he said slowly: "These are the maids who serve the Fire of Sin..."
People fear the fire of sin.
So they also serve the fire of sin.
What the Onion Knight said was right. After turning a corner, everything in front of the group suddenly became clear. Many similar maids in white appeared in their sight. At the same time, there was a magnificent, ruined, and half-collapsed huge palace in front of them.
This time it’s really a mountain of gold and silver!
All Su Ziyu's sight was filled with silver and gold. A large amount of gold and silver piled up into a mountain, buried here for who knows how many years. In the corners of the walls were piles of burnt corpses. At that time, many people must have fled here for refuge, taking their gold and silver treasures with them, but in the end, they were all burned to ashes.
Countless gold, silver and treasures were mixed together with corpses and piled up into small hills three or four meters high. Even Su Ziyu could not count how much gold and silver there were here.
Because there is more beneath the buried ruins.
If these things were brought to another world, they would be so rich that they would rival a country.
A series of broken stairs lead to the depths of the palace.
The three people walked up the stairs and saw many gargoyle statues, but it seemed that they were all dead and would not suddenly come to life.
Another huge ball of fire came.
They saw a cluster of burning flames in front of them. It was a brazier with a diameter of more than three meters. There were many maids in white clothes nearby, kneeling in front of the brazier without moving. They suddenly stood up after noticing them.
Someone was controlling the brazier to cast a spell. Without thinking, Su Ziyu gathered a lightning spear in his palm and threw it at the maid in the innermost part. The maid wore a golden mask and looked a little different.
But they are not difficult to deal with.
In the City of Sin, their identities should be similar to those of priests, with some spellcasting abilities, but they are not strong in combat.
A raging fire was burning before my eyes.
Four statues of people appeared in Su Ziyu's sight. They raised their hands to the sky and held up the huge brazier in front of them. Among them were men and women, and their expressions looked a little painful. The huge brazier was burning quietly, and no one knew how long it had been burning.
"It looks a bit like a replica of a royal weapon." Sister Friede reached out and touched it.
Su Ziyu was also observing curiously. He bent down and took a look, and found a small piece of text next to it.
——"It is not strength that suppresses the fire of sin, but the noble soul of the king..."
——"When the king is away...fire...falls from the sky..."
The following words are blurred.
"It is said that after the Giant King Youm agreed to everyone's request to become the King of Fire and went to the Firelink Shrine, the fire of sin fell from the sky and burned this place." Sister Friede sighed softly.
This Fire King went to spread the fire at the request of the people.
At first, the Giant King Yum suppressed the Fire of Sin here, but later it seemed that the Fire was passed on to this place, and no other strong man was qualified to become the Fire King, so the people of the City of Sin asked him to become the Fire King and go to the Fire Sacrifice Site. Although the Giant King Yum knew that people were not sincere in serving him as king, he still agreed to their request.
Unfortunately, not long after he left, the entire City of Sin was burned to ashes by the flames that fell from the sky, and almost no one survived.
Although the Giant King has left.
But judging from the distribution of corpses around, when the fire of sin fell from the sky, people subconsciously came to this palace to seek shelter, otherwise there wouldn't be so many corpses piled up here.
Of course, they did not forget to bring their own gold, silver and treasures.
"After the Giant King was awakened, he did not go to the Firelink Shrine, but returned directly here." Sister Friede pointed to the deepest part of the palace and whispered, "He should be inside."
This should be the most powerful enemy I have encountered so far since I came to this world.
Su Ziyu took out the demon gourd and took a sip. Then he turned to look at the two people beside him and said in a deep voice, "Are you ready?"
"Yes." Sister Friede nodded slightly.
The Onion Knight clenched the Storm Binder in his hand, his expression silent, just staring quietly ahead.
"Let's go then." Su Ziyu said in a deep voice.
Giant King - Yum!
The most special one among all the fire kings.
He was also a king with the highest moral character! He had even predicted what would happen today many, many years ago, and had given his weapon to a trustworthy friend, asking him to come with the weapon one day to give him a real end.
When this Fire King went to pass on the fire, he might have known what would be his final fate.
But he went there without hesitation.
Perhaps in his time, the world was not as desperate as it is now, and at least it was worth a true king sacrificing himself to keep it going.
There must have been many such kings in history.
Otherwise, this world would not have survived until now!
The three people walked slowly towards the central hall. Su Ziyu could feel a powerful force, which was the flame that was still extremely strong after burning. He just sat quietly on the throne he used to be on, waiting for his old friend to follow the promise made many, many years ago and bring him the real end and true rest.
Such a king should not be dug out and burned again.
This is disrespectful to a noble soul.
Buzz.
The Onion Knight slowly pushed open the extremely heavy door in front of him. He held a heavy shield in one hand and carried the heavy Storm Binder on his shoulder with the other. He stepped into the hall with a firm gaze and said slowly: "Yom, my old friend..."
"Knight Jackbaldo of Catalina has come to fulfill his promise!..."
"May the Fire King be with the sun!..."
The Onion Knight held the Storm Binder tightly and pointed at the throne in front. On the huge throne in front, the Giant King - Youm was holding a seven or eight meter long hatchet in his hand, with his head lowered, as if sitting on the throne in deep thought.
The former king has lost the ability to speak.
But he seemed to still remember this ancient covenant, and he slowly stood up from the huge throne. Under his crown was a face that had been burned to ashes, with a deep red light emanating from his pupils. His burly body was twelve meters tall, and traces of sparks could be seen on his severely burned chain mail. The ribs on his chest were clearly visible, and his flesh and blood had long been burned to ashes in the original fire.
Only a few burnt remains remained of his gigantic body.
“Hey!”
The Onion Knight roared, and his whole body seemed to be filled with endless fighting spirit. He took firm steps and walked towards the burly figure who stood up from the throne.
This is a man's promise.
This is the Knight's promise.
This is a promise that even if you know you cannot win, you must still fight hard!
This promise awakened him from the grave.
Now, he wants to use the Storm Sword once given to him by his old friend to give his friend true rest.
Red light exploded!
When the Giant King - Youm stood up, Su Ziyu seemed to see a burning human-shaped flame in his sight. It was different from the remaining flames of the Fran Undead Corps. It also exuded the breath of the Fire of Sin. It seemed that this King of Fire would be corroded by the Fire of Sin one day, just as he had expected.
The heavy footsteps sounded like war drums beating against my heart.
When the Giant King - Yum stood up, his huge shadow directly covered most of the hall. Visible sparks appeared in his broken body, like a piece of firewood that had not been completely burned. The embers of the flame gradually spread along the veins of his body, and finally completely ignited the huge hatchet in his hand.
——"Giant King - Youm! [Lord of Fire] [Abyss Erosion] [Fire of Sin]"
----——
