Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

The incarnation of King Xin fell down.

Just now, Li You's divine power reserve was drained with one strike. The gold bar under the blue bar of health bar in the personal panel suddenly emptied, and the system display was almost delayed.

But the power was worthy of the consumption. Even the incarnation of King Xin disappeared under this blow.

His body was defeated, and the flaming sword in his hand flashed back to the original campfire, changing back to its original spiral sword form.

Li You also fell.

His divine power was instantly emptied, and his dragon-human transformation was automatically released, so that he lost his balance for a moment and fell to the ground with a thud.

Fortunately, at the same time, he retracted his hand and threw the Blood Immortal Slash back into his backpack.

After the battle was over, Li You breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt an unspeakable fatigue.

Although there is a break in between, the intensity of the battle in the Black Soul World is still too high, and now it is finally over.

Li You subconsciously turned over and faced up, and then he remembered: Where is the ashes?

He immediately sat up.

Is there anything wrong with Ashes? Otherwise, what should I do with my main mission?

Fortunately, Li You turned around and saw that although the Ember Man was gone, the familiar ring of darkness was floating around him, and a thought came out again:

"...I need a little bit of an ownerless soul."

Li You breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s just a little soul, it’s trivial.

He immediately picked up the soul pendant, and a large number of ownerless souls stored in the pendant poured out, wrapping the ring of darkness and reshaping the body for the ashes. The figure wearing knight armor appeared in front of Li You again.

"Huh -" Hui Jin moved his body and let out a breath, "It's finally over."

Li You looked at the furnaces around him, especially the initial fire that was burning quietly and as subtle as a flame, and said:

"Can you give me an explanation now?"

Ashes nodded: "Of course. What do you want to know?"

Li You looked at her and then said, "Tell me about yourself. What happened to you? How did you become the Ring of Darkness?"

Ashes shook his head slightly: "I'm not a special person, I'm just a nameless Ashes, an immortal who can't make a living."

Li Youyou, are you here to memorize the opening words of the game?

"The pictures you showed me are not something that everyone can see. And now that we are all standing next to the Prime Fire, I always need to know who you are and what your plans are."

He looked at his status panel and then said, "Take your time and tell me your story. I think we should have time?"

After hearing what Li You said, Hui Jin agreed and said:

"I am indeed very ordinary. I don't remember my name, my origin, or anything. The beginning of my first memory is wearing such a suit of armor and waking up in the Ashes Cemetery.

"I had no idea what I should do at that time. I could only search along the cemetery, fight with the living corpses in robes, and wild dogs as skinny as skeletons. I also experienced my first death when I encountered a crystallized lizard. .

"I don't know how many times I died before I found the Judge of Ashes, and I didn't know how long I struggled with him before I finally defeated him. Then, I followed the road behind him to the Fire Transferring Sacrifice."

Having said this, Hui Jing paused for a moment.

"Here, I met the fire prevention woman. She told me about Ashes' mission and pointed out the way forward for me - to find the Fire Kings.

"To be honest, my memory is completely blank. I didn't even know what King Xin was at that time. The people in Chuanhuo Sacrifice were all very strange. They all talked to themselves, making it difficult to communicate. Because I really didn't know what else to do. What to do, I followed the fire girl's instructions and headed to the high wall of Lothric.

"At that time, I was really useless and knew nothing. Apart from this armor, a long sword and a shield, I had nothing. The only special thing may be that no matter what weapon I got, I could Immediately learn how to use it according to your body's instinct.

"I won't mention those trivial intermediate experiences. In short, I explored the high wall, went to the undead settlement, and the path of living sacrifices. In fact, most of the time I didn't know what I should do, so I moved forward. As for the search for the king The mission of "Passing Fire" is just a mere term to me, and I don't understand it at all.

"...However, on the way to find the king, I met different people. Some of them were friendly, some were indifferent, some were crazy, and some were cunning. These people all have their own missions and their own paths. For Fight for different reasons.

"Many of those reasons are actually very inconspicuous, and they are basically weirdos. But thanks to the contact with these people, I finally began to understand the face of the world, and their respective paths intertwined, which also made me understand the so-called Chuanhuo has his own understanding.

"After that, I traveled through the underground cemetery, arrived at Irushil, and walked through the underground prison and the former royal city of the Sunshine God Clan, Anor Londo. By this time, some of the people I met on the road had left, and I finally found my own path.”

Ashes said, looking at Li You, a bright gaze looked through the helmet's peephole: "I decided to inherit the original fire and continue this world."

Li You's expression changed slightly: "...why?"

Ashes did not answer directly, but said: "Li You, I agree with you very much. There are two sides to spreading fire. It does breed sin and curse, but its beneficiaries also exist, and they are all over the world. ——Just like the sunshine shining on the earth.”

"I don't long for the glory of a king, but I want to fight for a chance for those who are struggling to survive in this world, even if the so-called hope may be just an illusory spark.

"...However, even though I thought so, I failed to take the path of getting angry."

At this point, Ashes' tone changed and became uncontrollably lowered: "On the way to find King Xin, I met those people - Rondoer's pilgrims."

"I didn't know anything about the countries in this world at the time. I thought Rondoer was just one of the human countries, but I didn't expect that they were actually a country of wandering souls, and they also wanted to usurp the primordial fire..."

Hearing this, Li You had a guess: "...You accepted Rondoer's power? Dark Mark?"

Ashes nodded slightly: "Not only that, I even completed Rondall's 'mate' ritual... Oh, the so-called forming a partner is to use the covenant sword to kill the other Ashes as a container, and get the chance to stay in him. The dark mark in the body!"

"At this point, I became the King of Wandering Souls and lost the opportunity to spread the fire. Because if I touch the Initial Fire as the King of Wandering Souls, it will bring this world into the dark age..."

Li You opened his mouth, wanting to say that the dark mark could actually be cured, but hearing Hui Jin's tone was so heavy, he was afraid that saying it would hurt her too much.

In addition, Hui Jin's experience somehow felt inexplicably familiar to Li You.

However, Ashes didn't seem to need Li You to remind her, she added: "It was only later that I learned that the mark of darkness can be cured by finding the soul of the fireproof girl who was contaminated by the abyss.

"But I didn't know that there was this option at the time. So when I came to this initial furnace and saw Yulia's summoning mark here, I made up my mind to never let Rondoer get involved in the initial furnace. fire.

"So in the final episode, I and the incarnation of the King of Salary... were burned together.

"Of course the undead and ashes can be resurrected in campfires, but you also know that as long as certain conditions are met, they can also die completely, and that's what I thought at the time.

"However, after my body was burned, I originally planned to fall asleep, but unexpectedly I heard a voice in a trance, asking me without any emotion if I wanted a chance to start over... "

Hui Jin said, looking at Li You again, "Needless to say, of course I thought about it. You will almost know what happened next, and I actually appeared in front of you without even knowing what happened. of."

"Since then, I have been observing the outside world through your eyes. I can also see that although the people are still those people, this may not be my original world.

“But that’s okay, because the choices you made were much better than mine, and you saved many more people than I did.

"I also know that you also hope to inherit the flame and continue this world...so from that moment on, I decided to fully support you."

After listening to Hui Jin's words, Li You wanted to speak, but a flash of lightning flashed in his mind and he suddenly remembered something.

Because he didn’t understand anything, he became the King of Wandering Souls, and because he wanted to pass the fire, he didn’t enter the ending. This was exactly his experience of playing the game Soul 3 for the first time that year!

The experience described by Ashes is completely consistent with his first save game experience in Dark Souls 3, and all the details match.

As for the archive at that time, because Li You had made a mistake and was unwilling to go to the ending of King of Wandering Souls, so in the end... it was deleted!

"hiss--!"

Once he figured this out, Li You's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Hui Jin.

Did it turn out that the ashes in front of me were the mistakes I made when I was young? The ashes made him feel uncomfortable with his eyes that suddenly became full of love. He couldn't help but take a step back and coughed twice:

"Ahem! In short, this is my experience. As for how I became the ring of darkness and how it attached to you, I really don't know. Including absorbing souls, it's really not what I want. …”

"It's okay." Li You waved his hand happily, "It's just a little soul! Who among us is following whom?"

ash:"……?"

What happened to this person suddenly?

Li You originally wanted to ask Ashes about the DEBUFF caused by the Ring of Darkness, but in fact he could probably guess that it had to be caused by the system, which had always been very malicious in him.

Considering that Ashes was his past mistake after all, there was no need to worry about this trivial matter.

So, he did not respond to Ashes' question, but said: "Don't worry about those little things. Compared with that, can you touch the first fire now?"

Hui Jing felt that Li You was a little strange. He was the one who wanted to ask questions at first, but now he is the one who said he didn't care. He couldn't even finish his words...

However, she had been watching the live broadcast on Li You for so long. Except for the system panel, which she couldn't see, she could watch everything else from a first-person perspective. So she also knew that Li You's thoughts were sometimes very confusing, so there was no need to be surprised.

So she followed Li You's words: "That's right. Thanks to you, I absorbed the souls of the four salary kings, and now I have the qualifications and ability to inherit the flame."

"If you have no other questions, then I can pass on the Initial Fire now."

Li You looked at her. Although she couldn't see her face covered by the mask, her eyes showed her thoughts without reservation.

Her goal is very pure, which is to pass on the original fire and continue the world.

From this, Li You knew that he no longer needed to confirm with her.

He nodded solemnly: "Okay. Do I need to exit the initial furnace?"

Ashes shook his head: "Unfortunately, now that the First Fire has weakened, my soul is also very weak, not as good as the Gods... Just stand aside and watch, the fire will not spread."

"Besides, I also have something to give you."

Li You originally just wanted to confirm, so he would naturally not object.

So, he followed the ashes and came to the center of the furnace, next to the barely burning initial fire.

Hui Jin looked at Li You for the last time, then gently stretched out his hand and pressed it on the spiral sword inserted diagonally in the campfire.

In an instant, a crimson flame rose on Ash's arm, and then gradually spread along her body. Finally, a layer of faint flames ignited all over her body.

In this way, the fire transfer is completed. There were no complicated rituals, no earth-shattering noises, it was just that the flames, which had been unable to sustain themselves, got a small piece of new firewood and could continue for a while.

Ashes' body trembled involuntarily, the first fire was fueled by her soul, and the pain needed no description. But she only trembled slightly and had no other reaction.

Li You watched her complete the fire transfer, feeling a little sad.

If it were the era of Soul One, after the chosen immortal passed on the fire, he would ignite the entire initial furnace and turn it into a vigorous fire storm, releasing a brilliance like the sun!

But now, the flames have weakened, and the soul has also weakened. Even the ashes that have absorbed the souls of the four salary kings can only ignite a small fire on the body.

Just like entering this world of decline, it is just lingering on.

Both Li You and Hui Jin knew this, but Hui Jin still chose to pass on the flame.

At this time, she looked at Li You again and laughed to herself: "...I'm telling you a joke. As someone who has witnessed the Age of Gods, the flame I lit is probably not even a firework, right?"

Li You shook his head: "This has nothing to do with the strength of the force, but a personal choice."

Ashes didn't refute: "That's right. I sacrificed myself anyway. I think it's worth a little praise."

"Oh, by the way, I have to give you a thank you gift. After all, it's all thanks to you that I've come this far."

With that said, she stretched out her hand to Li You: "Lend me your spiral sword fragment."

Li You was a little confused, but didn't say anything. He took out the fragment and handed it to her. And Hui Jin held the fragments of the spiral sword in her hand, weighed it, and suddenly stretched out her left hand to make a move. Pieces of fragments fell from the complete spiral sword inserted in the campfire, and gradually followed the fragments in her hand. Mix together.

Finally, the fire flashed, and what lay in Ashes' hands was a complete spiral sword. Except that it was smaller, it was exactly the same as the spiral sword in the campfire.

Ashes turned his hand again, took out a golden soul like a spiraling flame, and handed it over together with the spiral sword.

Li You was also stunned.

Of course he knew these two things. Not to mention the spiral sword, that soul was the soul left behind by the incarnations of the Xinwang.

He was looking for it just now, but he didn't expect it to be here in Ashes?

However, Li You immediately chose to refuse: "Since you have inherited the initial fire, then this soul should be given to you."

Ashes shook his head: "This soul is the same as the incarnation. It is the residue after the burning kings of all generations. It can't be ignited again, and I don't need it. So you take the best, no matter what, it should be You can also make something through the smelting furnace."

"And this soul is nothing, this sword is my thank you gift."

She said, then looked at Li You: "Aren't you feeling troubled because there are too many weapons to use? This sword can help you solve this problem to a certain extent."

"……oh?"

Since she said so, Li You naturally stopped being polite and took over the souls and spiral swords of the Xinwangs.

He originally wanted to study the sword carefully, but suddenly he remembered another thing.

"……etc."

It was also when Li You got the Spiral Sword that he suddenly remembered that he had faced the dark ring before... No, had he played some special photography trick with the dark ring?

His face looked a little strange: "Speaking of what I told you in the spiritual space before, you..."

ash:"………"

"The remaining mark of the Dark Ring can allow you to teleport again. It's time for you to go."

With that said, Hui Jin waved his hand, and Li You instantly felt that the surrounding scenery was moving away from him at an extremely fast speed, and he was the only one who remained still.

Li You subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab something, but in the blink of an eye, he had already returned to the door of the sacrificial site where the fire had been extinguished.

But this time, the initial furnace in front was no longer visible, no matter how far away it was.

Li You paused and then put down his hand.

He lost interest in studying the harvest for a moment, and then used the only lit campfire in the sacrificial site to teleport away.

After he left, in the Initial Fire Furnace, Ashes looked up at the black sun hanging high in the sky, lost in thought for a long time.

Then, she sat down in front of the Initial Fire Furnace without saying a word and moving slowly. Then, she seemed to have turned into a stone sculpture, almost motionless.

From a distance, she looked just like the incarnation of the Fire King not long ago.

In the Initial Fire Furnace, there was only that flame, burning tenaciously.
