Chapter 118 It Turns Out to be a Soldier



Chapter 118 It Turns Out to be a Soldier

The secret to success in life lies in whether you dare to give it a try when surrounded by strong enemies.

Try your best to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.

The Forging Golem was standing at the passage between the Firelink Shrine and the forest area, and had no intention of leaving. For Roger and the others, it would be a tough battle at this moment.

I guess it's like a motorcycle turned into a dump truck, the difference is that they were the ones hit by the dump truck.

Fortunately, the place they were going to was the Fran Fortress, and the Forging Golem could not catch up with them. There must be no connection between the forest area and the Fran Fortress, right?

No way?

Being stared at closely by the Forged Golem, Dal and the others were still nervous even when they were resting, always feeling that the monster would rush in and give everyone a hug of love.

But in the end, it didn't happen, which confirmed the rumor that monsters from other areas would not invade the Firelink Shrine under normal circumstances.

[Hunting Manual: Scenario Type]

[Name: Fire Sacrifice Site]

[The starting point where heroes embark on the road to passing on fire. It was once bustling with people and many legendary stories began here.]

[However, this may also be the final destination for the discouraged]

Soon after, everyone's condition had improved and they finally decided to go to the Fran Fortress.

"Goodbye," Roger waved to the forging golem with lingering fear.

He could feel that the real strength of this monster was not that strong, at least not as strong as the Furnace Knight, but why was it so tough?

If you can't beat me at all, just give up.

Dal's sword was broken, so Roger used magic to make him a temporary magic sword to use. It was a bit troublesome, as he had to recharge the sword every ten minutes or so, otherwise the magic sword would turn into ashes like Dio in the sun.

Two of Antili's battle pets had broken teeth, and their combat effectiveness had seriously declined. At the moment, she could use not only the fire-breathing bird but also two hidden treasures.

But now she took out her whip and planned to fight in person.

Oh my god, the trainer has to take action himself!

Entering the Fran Fortress again and smelling the stench in the air, Dahl felt as if he had returned home.

"You guys brought enough antidotes, right?" He looked at the monster duo.

Roger opened his waist bag and showed it to him. A bottle of antidote was lying inside.

"Just one bottle?" Dahl stared at Roger's face. They were all mature adults, so how could they not be fully prepared?

"One bottle is enough, because I brought this,"

Roger took out a few magic scrolls. After hearing that Dahl wanted them to explore the Fran Fortress together, he went to the Spark Church to ask the Flame Monk to engrave them. The magic or prayer engraved on them was:

[Healing of Flame]

[The prayers of the fire martial artists ignite flames in their bodies, burning the pathogens, which can reduce the accumulation of poisoning and scarlet corruption.]

[It will slightly burn the user, as if to make people remember the horror of fire]

Although it was a prayer from the Elden Circle, due to the Fire Brothers' powerful understanding ability, he interpreted the fire monks described in it as believers serving Gwyn, and he believed that "Remember the horror of fire" was Gwyn's warning to people to have reverence for the First Fire.

There is only two words difference between a Flame Monk and a Flame Martial Arts Monk. He feels that this is fate!

The Fire God Gwyn deserves to be brought to prominence by me!

So when Roger came to ask him to burn the scroll, he was extremely happy and felt that the influence of the God of Fire had increased even more.

Looking at the scroll in Roger's hand, Dahl suddenly felt that his antidote was too weak.

Is this what connections are? There’s no comparison.

With the addition of two powerful teammates, Dahl gave up parkour and adopted a steady and cautious style of play.

Soon, the first beacon tower was extinguished.

Next is the second one.

Standing at the foot of the hill where the second beacon was set up, Dal and Roger were reminding others of the details to pay attention to when fighting against the soul-sucking ghosts.

"The soul-sucking ghost uses a kind of red magic. Once caught, the life force will be sucked out and the spirit will become extremely exhausted. Once caught, the person will be declared dead."

"Its fighting style is also quite swift. If you are not careful, you will be killed. You must be careful when fighting in close combat."

"Given the strength of the Soul Sucker, it should be the best among the forces of the Abyss, perhaps even on par with the Crucible Knight. I guess there should be only one in the Faran Fortress, and the Undead Squad is guarding against it."

Dahl's first two speculations make some sense, but the rest are pure subjective conjecture.

Roger was stunned by his intimidation. On par with the Crucible Knight? Is it true? Is the final boss of the Sen Dungeon and the signature monster so worthless now?

But Dahl's expression was quite serious, and Roger couldn't help but believe it a little.

Antili flipped through the hunting manual and proposed a new conjecture:

"Since the manual says that Gollum is an ally of the Undead Squad, and the Soul-sucking Ghosts belong to the Abyss, if we don't kill these Gollums, will they fight with the Soul-sucking Ghosts that appear after the fire is extinguished?"

"What a good idea!" Roger applauded.

Dahl's eyes lit up, maybe he could really give this method a try.

This year's adventurers have all learned how to analyze background stories. Their quality is really good.

They quietly climbed up the hill from the side, and after a surprise attack, they successfully controlled several Gollums using binding magic.

"Get ready, I'm going to put out the fire,"

Dal extinguished the flame with a snap. When the video ended, the Gollums' binding magic had also expired, and the magic ropes that bound their bodies naturally dissipated.

They first roared at the adventurers, but just as they were about to attack, they suddenly stopped and turned their heads in unison.

A soul-sucking ghost just happened to walk up and looked up and met the Gollums' eyes.

“.”

The soul sucker froze for a moment, and we had no way of knowing whether he was too surprised or thinking about something else, but the Gollums pounced on him anyway.

"Good job!" Dahl was cheered up. He didn't expect that Gollum and the Dementors would actually fight each other.

There are so many surprises hidden in the Thane dungeon!

"Hehe," as the originator of the idea, Antili straightened her back with a proud look on her face.

"Okay, okay, quick decision,"

A melee situation is the best place for a guy like Roger to perform, and he must take advantage of the chaos to join in and launch a sneak attack.

After all, these Gollums seem to be dying.

Except for being caught off guard at the beginning, the Soul Reaper was quite brave when fighting Gollum, and every time he swung the sword in his hand, it would inevitably bring up a trail of blood.

If a real fight comes to hand, the Soul Sucker is still much stronger than Gollum.

Dahl immediately joined the battlefield. If he had been a little afraid of the soul-sucking ghost before, now with the help of his companions, he was not afraid at all.

No brothers, no Darksoul.

Antili took out her most precious treasure. Just as the soul-sucking ghost and Dal's swords collided and sparks flew, dozens of tough tentacles suddenly emerged from the ground and firmly trapped his hands and feet.

This is a hybrid of a tentacle monster and an octopus, bred by Antili using a unique method.

The octopus has horns on its head that can harden at any time, allowing it to burrow into the ground and wait for the enemy to be careless before launching a sneak attack!

A fierce battle broke out on the hill.

As soon as the soul-sucking ghost appeared, the Gollums no longer cared about the adventurers and focused on fighting the abyss. Everyone felt a little emotional when watching this.

Even though Gollum was really annoying when he beat them, he inexplicably felt safe when he was their teammate.

“Puff!”

When a Gollum tried to attack the Soul-sucking Ghost but was dodged by the other party and slapped Dal who was standing next to him, he instantly felt uneasy.

Friendly fire is always a disgusting thing!

After a few sneak attacks, Roger retreated to a distance and became a supporting role like Drew, specializing in using spells to interfere with the battle of the soul sucker.

In the chaotic fight, the soul-sucking ghost couldn't display much of his martial arts.

After an unknown amount of time, he fell unwillingly in a pool of blood.

“Hoo, hoo!”

Dahl was breathing heavily, holding his left arm which was cut to the point where the bone was exposed, his eyes flashing with excitement.

He defeated the soul-sucking ghost! He finally succeeded!

Unlike Gollum, the body of the Dementor turns to dust after death, leaving nothing behind, including its weapons.

Roger looked at the direction where the soul-sucking ghost disappeared, his eyes thoughtful. What he was thinking in his heart was - is that it?

No, no, no, this is not to disrespect the Soul Sucker. As an enemy, it is still very powerful and made the trio go through a sweaty battle. However,

Previously, Dahl said that the Soul Sucker was comparable to the Crucible Knight, which raised Roger's expectations. But in reality, the combat experience seemed to be similar to that of the Forged Golem?

It would be better to forge a golem. After all, the soul-sucking ghost's defense is too low, but its ferocious fighting style is impressive.

Having seen with his own eyes how the Soul-sucking Ghost sucked a Gollum to death, he now really wanted to study the effects and principles of the Soul-sucking Ghost's magic.

Dahl couldn't wait to open the hunting manual and read the introduction of the soul-sucking ghost.

[Hunting Manual: Monsters]

[Name: Soul-sucking Ghost]

[They were once well-trained knights of Anor Londo, but under the erosion of the abyss, they turned into monsters that craved humanity. When the flood that submerged the ancient country receded, the Soul-sucking Ghosts reappeared in the world.]

“.”

Dahl was silent for a moment. He caught a key word: "they".

So it turns out that the Soul-sucking Ghost is mass-produced?

At this moment, he suddenly felt how stupid he was for making a bunch of assumptions based on his imagination.

Roger seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He patted his shoulder in a comforting manner and asked, "Do you want to go deeper? There is still a lot of time left."

Dahl raised his head and said firmly:

"want!"

Not long after, when they extinguished the third beacon, they encountered a whole team of soul-sucking ghosts.

"Or maybe just forget it."
