Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 250 Salary King
What is the most frightening thing when fighting a boss?

That is to defeat it with the last bit of life force, when you think you have won.
The orchestral music in the venue suddenly became louder!

When fighting with the Undead Squad, there was always a faint sound of music echoing in the fortress, low, sad, and solemn, which just matched the depressing environment here, but everyone at the time was focused on the battle and completely ignored the music.

And at this moment, when Dal breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pass away, the music suddenly became high-pitched and passionate, and a female voice came from nowhere and began to sing in chorus. The previous depression was swept away and the atmosphere was pushed to its climax!

A blazing fire came from behind them, illuminating the fortress brilliantly. The sticky darkness was frightened and retreated under the flames.

A majestic vitality came from behind me, and the violins and cellos in the music seemed to be sparked, and the female chorus reached its highest point, as if celebrating -

Rebirth in flames!

"What are you doing?"

Japar blinked. He hadn't looked so confused for a long time.

What did he just see?
The Undead Squad had already fallen, but blood suddenly flowed out of the bodies of other team members and gathered in his body?

The wolf's blood gathered and the flames ignited.

The figures of the Farlan Undead Squad flickered in the fire, thousands, hundreds, dozens, and finally merged into one.

The undead team that carried all the wolf blood stood up, the Fran sword was wrapped in flames, and the corners of the armor also emitted burning flames.

The raging fire almost covered the entire fortress.

That was no ordinary flame. Japar was sure that he felt a mysterious power from it. This power seemed to be able to support the world, continue the world, and save the world. If he had to describe it, it would be
Like a god?

"The King of Salary!"

At this moment, Dal suddenly shouted excitedly. The injuries on his body disappeared at some point, and even the big sword on his chest returned to the hands of the Undead Squad.

Japar also found that he had recovered to his best condition, and the Fran guards who were lying half-dead on the ground also woke up.

Everyone's status has been restored! ?

Chewing on this word, Gapar suddenly understood. He knew this word from the book about the Fran Undead Corps compiled by Bed Weekly.

Dahl was the first to react. He learned this word from Brother Grayheart in the painting world "Hawkwood" and fully understood the Undead Corps' feat of passing on fire, and knew the meaning of this name.

It means those who throw themselves into the flames for the survival of the world!
In this world, there is a more appropriate name for the King of Fire.

"Savior?" Japar had heard this word more than once when others were talking about the Undead Squad.

Regardless of the original intention and purpose of each Fire King, as long as they pass on the fire and continue the world, the people of this world will call them saviors.

Thinking of this, Japar suddenly grinned, picked up the Lianxing Sword from the ground, and said:
"It's rare to have the opportunity to fight against such a being. I am extremely lucky."

The necessary etiquette had already been performed at the beginning, and what he needed to do now was not to forget his original intention, so he picked up the sword.

But what.
Japar suddenly scratched his face and said to himself:
“I feel like I can’t win.”

Just by looking at the Undead Squad standing up from the flames, he felt as if his soul was burning. Without even thinking about it, the Undead Squad in the "Lord of Fire" state has surpassed the replicant tears of the Full Moon Queen. This is the strongest existence currently displayed in the Sion Dungeon.

Unless he is given a plug-in similar to Topps' force field to target the Queen and also to target the Undead Squad, otherwise he will just fight with his head?

He might be able to beat the Queen solo, but to beat the Immortals? Are you kidding me!
Seeing Gapar raise his sword, the Fran guards who were excited to meet the King of Fire were stunned for a moment. Dal was the first to react and picked up his weapon.

The eyes of the Undead Soldier who stood up from the flames glowed red, and his movements changed, becoming as ferocious as those mad companions. This meant that he recognized everyone who could defeat his first stage self, so he completely liberated his power and no longer resisted the abyss.

After realizing this, everyone started taking excessive amounts of drugs, including Monster Blood Pills, Green Flower Grass, Brave Meat Chunks, and Madness Potion.
After taking an overdose of the drug, everyone's levels improved by at least five on average, and with the stimulation of wolf blood, their strength was even greater.

The battle begins, but the following scene doesn't even need much description.

The Flan guards who can survive and face the Undead Army of the Lord of Cinder will not be afraid. They just have a little trembling hands, really just trembling hands.

The Undead Squad specializes in treating this kind of difficult and complicated disease, and the treatment method is to send them back to the bonfire.

The swords of the Undead Squad were flaming, and each sword would take a life as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, until they reached Dal.

"Drink!"

Dal jumped up and unleashed his strongest attack, just like when he faced Artorius. After stacking multiple buffs, he used all his strength to perform the Wolf Leap.

But the Undead Squad suddenly disappeared from his sight.

By the time he reacted, he discovered that the other person had jumped higher than him, and the wolf jump posture was more standard and powerful.

"I--"

Before Dahl could even utter a complete sentence, the flame-wrapped Fran sword quickly enlarged in his field of vision.

Then he lost consciousness, and at the end he seemed to see the Undead Squad rushing towards the Sword Master.

Ah, I failed in the end.
Dal's mental state was unexpectedly calm and he accepted his failure calmly. It would be better to say that this challenge allowed him to see the King of Fire, and it felt worth it even if he died.

He still has to say that the Undead Squad is really cool.

The world before my eyes gradually fell into darkness. If things went as expected, what would follow would be the formulaic "consciousness gradually fading away" and then waking up at the campfire.

However, a flame suddenly ignited before his eyes, and then burned the entire dark picture ashes, and a new scene unfolded before his eyes.

He looked down at the interior of the Faran Fortress. The Undead Squad was fighting. Was it with Japar?
No, that person is not Japar!
Dahl's eyes widened as he realized that there was another new image before him.

Fighting against the Undead Squad inside the fortress was a stranger wearing full body armor.

Wait, I think I've seen this guy somewhere.

I remembered now, this man fighting against the Undead Squad. I had seen him in the painting world "Hawkwood". He was the one who inserted the spiral sword back into the campfire!
I think Hawkwood called him "Ashes"? What a strange name, is there any meaning to it?

As he watched, Dahl's expression suddenly froze.

Because Ashes knocked the Undead Team to the ground by himself, watched the other side condense wolf blood and transform into the Cinder King, and then started the second battle. Winning the first stage alone is something that Gaparnu can do with all his strength, but what happened next was not something that could be achieved by hard work.

He felt the shock he felt when he first saw White Wolf defeat the Full Moon Queen - Ashes was unharmed by the attack of the Cinder King's Undead Army, and could even be said to be strolling in the garden!

The Immortal Corps' fatal strike to Dal was actually deflected by Ashes' small round shield! ?

Ashes used precise movement to dodge small attacks, rolled to avoid powerful attacks, and simply swung a sword in between attacks from the Undead Squad. His tactics were extremely simple, but he used them to the fullest, and he has remained unharmed so far!

Stunned, Dahl had a dull look in his eyes.

Such a powerful undead team, such a fierce flame, actually...
When he saw Ashes win the victory and salute the enemy, Dahl couldn't help but open his mouth and uttered:
".ah?"

what happened?
I, I didn’t fast forward, and I didn’t blink, so why did the battle suddenly end?
This. Ashes wins now?

"What did I see?"

He was somewhat unwilling to believe the fact. Why could such a simple fight be able to defeat the Fire King? If it was just rolling, he could do it too!
His brain: I learned it.

His hands and feet: No, you can't.

"No, no, no, it must not be as simple as I see it," he suddenly shook his head and said to himself:
"It is said that in ancient times, when gods descended to the mortal world, they would choose to incarnate, because looking directly at the true form of the gods would cause irreversible damage to the human spirit. So... I understand. This video must have been changed to take care of my spirit. The real battle is far more intense and spectacular than this!"

This was probably an idea he came up with to escape reality, though.

Dahl sighed with relief when he saw the fallen Undead Army, and the Ashes who defeated the Lord of Cinders also showed enough respect. This might be the best ending for the Undead Army that had been eroded by the abyss.

He suddenly felt a little jealous of Ashes, jealous of why he was not the protagonist of the video, he was really envious.

"Boom-thump-"

A bell rang from somewhere, and the image suddenly disappeared. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself still in the Fran Fortress.

But in the center of the venue appeared something that had never been seen before, a throne?
The Undead Soldier sat on the throne, weapons piled around him, faint flames wrapped around his body, his head lowered, looking like he was in a deep sleep.

"what is this?"

Dal wanted to get closer, but found that an invisible force field separated him and he could not touch the [Fire Throne].

He had also seen the style of the throne in Hawkwood's memories. It seemed that there were five in total?

Dal looked at the throne and seemed to have some feeling in his heart. Perhaps this represents "passing on the fire"?
"I'm dead, why am I still here?"

"Because we won, probably."

Japar's voice suddenly came, and Dal looked back, only to see that he and several other Fran guards were still here intact.

"It seems that we only need to defeat the first form to win. The Cinder King who appeared at the end probably only appeared for us to witness the true form of the Undead Corps. This dungeon never intended for us to defeat him."

Japar sighed, as if he had aged several years. "Releasing an unbeatable enemy to extinguish people's hope is really a bad idea."

He stroked his chest. He had lasted dozens of rounds in the battle with the Lord of Fire. With his full strength, he inflicted several deep wounds on the Undead Squad. Then, he was chased to death because he revealed a flaw.

In a battle of this level, there can be no room for even the slightest mistake; perfection must be guaranteed.

Not only did he die, but the power gap also caused some fluctuations in his mentality. The swordsmanship and physique that he was proud of were worthless in the face of a stronger power. He even began to doubt the meaning of all his years of training.

But on second thought, humans have never been a race excelling in physical fitness. Even a physique of his level is common among races that are one or even two levels lower than him, such as the trolls. The real strength of humans is their mastery of everything, as well as the golden macho men who are randomly born from the sky at an extremely high reproduction rate.

And the most important thing in battle is various equipments, not ordinary equipments, but more special ones.

Japar looked at his bare upper body. The only piece of equipment on his body was the Lianxing Sword. Other than that, he was naked.

"I should take out my collection next time I come." He muttered to himself, "If I only rely on swordsmanship, I still have room for improvement."

Also, what is the origin of the Sen Dungeon, and why can it summon such a powerful being?

It would take a team battle of a hundred people to compete with the Undead Squad of the Lord of Fire.

"Ugh"

He sighed again and looked at the Undead Squad on the throne. His intuition told him that as the first to pass through, their actions might bring about some changes to the Fran Fortress.

At this moment, the fortress suddenly shook, and everyone looked towards the source of the vibration, only to see that a passage leading to the underground suddenly opened at the innermost part of the fortress!

A cold and evil aura continued to emanate from it, foreshadowing something ominous.

But when they wanted to go over and check, magic words suddenly appeared before their eyes.

[Dedicated to the heroic warriors who are fearless of danger and hardship, this is the reward for defeating a strong enemy for the first time. Keep this gift well]

A powerful soul appeared in front of everyone present, and information could be obtained by simply touching it.

[Wolf Blood Soul]

[A deformed soul with power. After using it, you can obtain many souls, and you can also extract its power through refining.]

[The souls of the watchers who received the wolf blood are also the souls of the Wolf Blood Lord]

"Is this the soul of the Undead Squad?"

Dahl held the large soul solemnly, his heart full of respect.

Should I use it at the bonfire like any other soul I gain?
There is no need to do that.

Because when he held the soul and approached the Fire Throne, an old voice sounded.

"Do you want to refine deformed souls and gain their power?"

　Ever since I finished writing Full Moon, I've been in a state of brain overload. I'm stuck. I've planned what to write next, but when I start writing, I keep getting stuck.
