Beginning as King of Elden

Chapter 144 This is hell

"The Golden Law! Death must be avenged!"

Li Lin raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

"I don't expect you to completely kill the dead prince, but can you please help me kill his witch."

Does it mean the girl who sleeps in death?
Li Lin shook his head.

He is not sure about this, at least for now, he has not yet developed a clear killing intent towards Fiya.

"Sure enough...I still have to rely on my own efforts..."

The shirtless man muttered to himself.

He stood up and bowed his head to Li Lin.

"Anyway, thank you for coming. I'm going to go back to the round table hall first to retrieve my brother's equipment."

"It would be nice if you could cheer up."

After bidding farewell to D's younger brother, the knight continued to follow Miss Teardrop's guidance and walked deeper.

(This is the end of the diversion bridge)

Before a huge waterfall, the knight stopped.

The depths of deep roots?
Where can we enter the place Sir Bai Zhi mentioned?

While Li Lin was looking around, a gargoyle with a strange big sword and a huge ax on his back fell from the sky.

"What the hell is this."

Li Lin asked Ashmi in his body.

"Sorry, I don't know. It looks like a gargoyle."

I also know this is a gargoyle...

During the conversation, this gargoyle about six or seven meters tall charged forward with a sword raised.

...Looking at his posture, he seems to be the type who is not very proficient in fighting.

Still, don't be careful.

After several rounds of dodge, Li Lin swung his curved sword and cut off one of the gargoyle's legs.

It's just a look.

The gargoyle spit out a breath of green gas that was not sure whether it was poisonous or not, forced the knight in front of him to retreat, and reached out to take out the giant ax from behind.

At the same time, another gargoyle holding a double-headed sword also fell from the sky.

Seeing that the host was about to fall into the unfavorable situation of two against one, Ashmi immediately disintegrated from the knight's body, and landed on the ground beside him in the form of a woman.

Li Lin hesitated, but still didn't complain.

Facing the gargoyle attacking again, he raised his two swords and charged.

Even if it's one-on-two or even one-on-three, it won't take too much time for Li Lin to take care of these gargoyles.

With Asumi's help, the battle ended in just one minute.

After killing the two gargoyles, Li Lin saw a somewhat abrupt sarcophagus under the waterfall where they jumped off.

Could it be that these two gargoyles are guarding the sarcophagus...

Li Lin glanced at the big sword that fell from one of the gargoyle corpses.

This was originally a broken sword. The missing parts were filled with corpse wax. It was a weapon spliced ​​together by many heroes.

The appearance of this coffin is very similar to the one I saw next to the temple in the grand cloister.

(Host... you won't want to dig into the coffin again, will you)

Li Lin was speechless for a moment.

He gave a self-defeating laugh, lifted the lid of the coffin, and got in.

"That's what faders are like."

He said to Asumi shamelessly.

(...)
It is so difficult to become a king.

--------

When the faded person lies in it, the coffin closes the lid automatically.

Countless hidden runes lit up from the sarcophagus, and the power of the runes was awakened, lifting the coffin out of thin air.

Feeling the elevator-like lift, Li Lin showed a strange expression in the coffin.

- The stone hard sleeper is a bit uncomfortable.

Climbing out of the sarcophagus, the knight came to a place that looked like the depths of a huge tree root underground.

Is this what Sir Baizhi refers to as [deep roots]?

As soon as he arrived here, the knight was attacked by a giant creature that looked like a tree root.

He had fought such a monster in his previous life, and it was the incarnation of the golden tree.

Here is the root of the golden tree?
The dryad who uses the Golden Prayer wields an alien ritual staff to fight. The attack is powerful and heavy, but the speed seems slow.

Such enemies are nothing more than target-like playthings to Li Lin now.

"Ashmi, do you know the way here?"

The battle ended quickly, and although he thought it was impossible for Ashmi to know, the knight still asked subconsciously.

(…sorry, I don’t know)

Cough, it doesn't matter, he can find his way by himself.

Jumping between huge tree roots, Li Lin encountered many attacks by flying insects that looked like ants.

Not strong, but disgusting.

It wasn't until he walked into a dilapidated building that the knight stopped seeing these disgusting bugs.

Correspondingly, many headless horsemen with swords and shields appeared here.

They cut off their own heads.

As a fellow knight, Li Lin felt this in the battle with them.

These knights were spiritual beings, and during the collision of swords, Li Lin felt their will.

——Maybe it was his hallucination.

Li Lin, who was deeply affected by scarlet corruption, thought mockingly.

The way they are now is that they personally cut off their heads, followed the Lord to death, and stayed here in the form of souls.

And they serve the eclipsed sun, the soulless demigods depicted on the shields.

The sun refers to the former dead prince.

The Prince of Gold, "The Sun" Godwin.

The throne of the dead prince is indeed here.

As his footsteps continued to deepen, the shapes of the surrounding creatures became more and more distorted, enough to make the living feel extremely terrifying and disgusting.

Waving the blade, Li Lin didn't care about it at all.

In the end, he came to the shore of a shallow purple lake.

Countless black dead roots are scattered on the turbid purple lake water, and countless annoying flies are flying here.

There is no living person here, and the breath of death makes people tremble.

At the end of the lake, there was an extremely bloated huge corpse.

The extremely twisted head is like a shell, and the terrifying facial features are enough to drive people into complete madness just by looking at it. Where the legs should be, there is a long mermaid-like tail.

...Is Fiya going to sleep with such an existence?

Li Lin rubbed his arm.

Seems to have goosebumps...

A ghost that looks like a lost knight emerges from under the dead prince's throne, and walks towards him armed with an alien spear.

The moment before he stabbed out the spear, Li Lin drew his sword with great speed, and the bloody blade pierced his throat.

Here is hell.

He felt a little sick.

Let's end this quickly.

After killing what was probably the Lost Knight, Roger's ghost also appeared in front of him.

Is it a hallucination?
No... what he saw before, the sudden death of the magician was probably not an illusion. Roger probably died underground in Stonewell City, and was later resurrected by Feiya.

After his actual death, he became Fear...or the dead prince's subordinate.

It's a bit annoying, this feeling.

The mage is extremely agile, but dodging the knight's first sword is already the limit of what he can do.

The winding blade, which was faster than the previous sword, severed Roger's soul body.

The next moment, Lionel's soul appeared.

……

Is he dead too?

The iron ball knight like a marinated egg appeared, but this time, Li Lin couldn't find it funny.

In the Crown World battle with Broken Star, how many of his companions who fought with him are left?

Tragus...

My mind was in chaos, and I couldn't count the knights.

It seemed that there was always only death around him.

The killing intent was so violent that people couldn't move, pouring down like a torrential rain.

Come again!

Come again!

In the knight's blood-colored eyes, more blue souls appeared in front of him.

here is hell...

There is nothing left in his heart.

Now he can't even feel pain.

There was an irreparable void in the knight's heart.
