Who designed this underworld dungeon?.

Chapter 534 Sean’s “Conservatism”

Gong Qiying will make some changes to the effects of the items produced in the Sion dungeon.

The amulet leather bag in front of people is the best proof.

In the original Elden Ring game, players will obtain equipment such as amulets with various effects, but the amulet slots for equipping amulets are limited. The effect of the amulet leather bag is to increase an amulet slot.

In this world, there is no restriction on the amulet column. Even if adventurers want to weave amulets into a piece of armor to wear on themselves or wear rings on all ten fingers and toes, no one will care. Therefore, the role of the original amulet leather bag is dispensable to adventurers. No, it should be said that it is completely useless.

So now, the effect of the amulet leather bag has changed.

It becomes to increase the power of the amulet placed inside!

Gong Qiying filled in the initial amulet leather bag's ability to enhance the amulet's effect with a value that he thought was relatively conservative. Yes, he thought so.

As for the reason, of course it's because he wants to sell a wave of enhancements~
He set up the amulet leather bag so that it could be strengthened just like a weapon, and it required a more advanced colorless forging stone than ordinary forging stone to strengthen it!

This can also be considered a way to increase the time adventurers stay in the dungeon.

Even so, I believe that adventurers cannot refuse the temptation of this item, not only to strengthen the effect of the amulet, but more importantly.
"Will the amulet placed in this leather bag not burden our bodies?"

Yuffie said in surprise.

Everything has a price. If you want to become stronger, you have to exercise. If you don’t want to exercise and rely on external things, you have to bear certain conditions of external things.

The most obvious example is Dahl, a man who likes to enhance himself.

He has been improving his endurance recently in order to make his body stronger and stronger so that he can withstand more burdens brought by the buff effects.

Dal's signature move is to give himself ten to twenty buffs, and then use the wolf jump when his body and mind have reached their limits. This move can even compete with Artorius!
But it was just a touch. If a real fight came to pass, he still wouldn't be able to win because after using this move his body basically couldn't bear the burden of so many buff effects and was broken down. He couldn't even stand up, just like a certain red demon whose body was drained by explosion magic.

At least he has to have the strength to use this move as a basic attack before he can officially fight Artorius. Before that, any idea of ​​attacking Artorius is wishful thinking.

If he had this amulet leather bag, Dal would be less burdened by the amulet power, and he could gain two more buffs, and his ultimate move would become even stronger!
After all, the amulets and rings produced in the Senn Dungeon can certainly bring continuous improvement in the abilities of the wearers, but this enhanced ability will also put a burden on the body, even if it is very small. When the enhancement effects increase, the burden will become more obvious until the body is scrapped.

For Dal, the improvement is so great, so for ordinary adventurers with lower strength, the improvement effect of the amulet leather bag will be even stronger.

“I don’t really feel any pressure.”

Yufei threw the fragment of the warrior pot given to her by her father into the amulet leather bag, and tried a random combat skill. The combat skill, which was originally only powerful enough to hit trees, broke through the solid city wall at this moment, causing the bricks and stones to explode!
“And the amplification effect is quite significant.”

The conservative figures that Gong Qiying considered were not that conservative in Yufei's opinion.

She immediately smiled happily, her eyebrows and eyes curved into crescents. She was not the kind of person who would pretend to be reserved. She would be very happy when she should be happy!
If even she is like this, then you can imagine how other people will react.

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Tepi slowly stroked the amulet leather bag in his hand like Gollum stroking the Lord of the Rings. His expression was the embodiment of the word "joy".

"Brother, it's gold!" Isa excitedly grabbed Fann's shoulders and shook him constantly. The latter smiled and let her shake him. The two people who were born in a small town had never seen golden spots before, and now they could not think of anything else except having fun.

The threat of the ominous demon? With the impact of the reward, who cares about that thing! Anyway, it's just a possible danger in the dungeon.

If you have the guts, come out of the dungeon and beat me up!
I don't know how long it took before people finally stopped having fun and gradually calmed down from their excitement.

Vann turned around and looked at the majestic Stonewell City behind him. The sky gradually darkened, and a storm hovered over this fortress full of murderous aura. The sky seemed to be falling down, and an unspoken heavy power lingered here.

By the way, the ominous demon is just an appetizer. Only after defeating him will they be qualified to enter the city of Stonewell. Their exploration has only just begun.

"Even the one guarding the gate is so powerful. What kind of danger is lurking in this castle? And how powerful is Greg, who is called a demigod?"

Unlike the Catacombs of Casas, where the background story hints at and exaggerates the power of Overlord Wolnir, making people feel oppressed, the adventurers' impression of Greg so far is only what White Mask said, "old and ugly", without any positive portrayal.

But the mere title of a demigod made the adventurers feel oppressed. No one would believe that Greg was really "old and ugly". After all, the guy with the white mask looked arrogant by nature, so it was not impossible for him to say something derogatory.

The reason why adventurers treat Greg with caution is that the word demigod really exists in reality.

"Even so, we have to continue exploring." Yufei shook her hair and stood with a gun in hand, saying, "There are still countless treasures ahead, ahem, I mean enemies worth challenging are waiting for us."

You've already exposed your true thoughts, Fann complained in his heart.

I didn't expect that someone like Youfei would be attracted by rewards. Just looking at her appearance, I would have thought she was a martial arts fanatic.

Tepi also stood up with an ambitious look on his face, "Shall we continue to go into the city? I feel my blood boiling after not feeling it for a long time."

It's as if you used to fight so passionately every day. You were living a life of luxury before being beaten by Leon. Vann once again turned into a complainer.

But no matter how much we complain, it's still early and everyone still has energy, so exploring the city of Stonewell is inevitable.

But before officially entering the city, there is still one thing to do.

"Let's rest here for a while. I'll contact Edgar and wait for him to come before we set off." After defeating the ominous demon, a blessing appeared at the end of the bridge. Resting there would help recover your physical strength more efficiently.

But what about what Yufei said about contacting Edgar? Is there someone else coming in here with them?

And the name Edgar seems to be the name of the magician who came with the second prince Lanler.

Yufei took out a magic item for communication, injected magic power into it and said, "We succeeded. Now we can enter Stonewell City. How is your progress in collecting pyroxene?"

After a while, Edgar's voice came from the magic prop, but he didn't sound very happy. He said in a sullen manner:
"I understand, go now."

Yufei jumped back to the front of the fog gate, picked up the backpack that had been thrown there before, and took out a jar the size of a human head from it. The jar was full of bright red flesh and blood.

She placed the jar on the ground and placed several scrolls with magic circles engraved on them around it. The magic circle lit up, and the flesh and blood in the jar suddenly began to wriggle, breaking through the jar and falling onto the magic circle, rapidly changing shape.

"How disgusting! Is this considered magic?"

Yuffie shook her head, turned around and jumped back to the blessing.

This jar of flesh and blood can also be considered a magic prop. According to Edgar, this is his unique magic that he created by integrating alchemy. It can temporarily create a body exactly like one's own to carry the spirit, but it looks a bit evil.

Edgar had previously shown a keen interest in the pyroxenes that Tepi brought back. After studying them for a few days, he decided to enter the underground city of Sen and personally visit the magical town of Selia, where these pyroxenes were produced.

By chance, I met Yufei and his friends who were also going into the dungeon, so I formed a team with them.

But he had no interest in defeating the ominous demon, so he did not come over. He just told everyone to notify him after they could enter Stonewell City.

Fortunately, the strength of the boss behind the fog gate changes according to the number of adventurers entering the fog gate and the summoned helpers, which prevents people from fighting with stronger ominous demons.

"What do you think of the battle just now? Do you feel that you have gained more combat experience?"

Yu Fei was about to give some instructions to everyone, but when she looked back.

Everyone sitting in front of the blessing was looking in the same direction. The key point was that there was nothing in the air over there, but they behaved as if there was someone in the air.

"Hey, how are you guys going——"

Yufei immediately felt something was wrong, and just as she was about to go over, something strange happened.

Vann and the others disappeared in an instant!
She stopped walking.

"Disappeared?"

Yuffie fell into deep thought.

After a moment, she resolutely walked to the blessing and sat down, muttering to herself:
"There is no danger near Blessing. I trust Sean."

The moment she sat down in the blessing place, she finally understood why Vann and the others were looking at the air aside.

Because there, Melina, who had been away for many days, appeared.

"I'm sorry, but I've been observing you these days, wondering if you really want to meet the Elden Ring."

Along with the flowing light, this mysterious figure appeared beside Yufei, with an unchanging calmness on his face, but his words were confusing.

Yuffie wanted to say it was okay, but Melina continued:

"It turns out that I was worrying too much. From the beginning, Torret believed you. I was not sincere enough."

Melina really looked a little guilty, which made people want to care for her.

It seemed like no one blamed her for this, but she ended up apologizing first, which made people feel like she was taking it too seriously.

But this is actually a different kind of cuteness, right?

"But there is one thing I can guide you on."

"The Hall of the Round Table, that's where the guided Faded Ones, the heroes, gather."

She seemed to have named some remarkable place.

"I can take you there."

"Are you going to the Round Table Hall?"
