After sensing this emotion, Frillie smiled faintly; the reunion was indeed a rare and fortunate encounter.

"If you don't mind, come and experience this border region with me. There are things more worthy of being destroyed than the abyss."

Upon hearing this, the Farron Undead Legion nodded. If they had any connection to this new land, it was probably only with their old rivals, the Ashbringers. One battle was to rekindle the fire, and the other to settle old scores. It was good to work together. The long-awaited relief from responsibility felt like a great weight had been lifted.

"Are you ok?"

Only then did Melina and Oro cautiously return.

"Don't worry, it's all taken care of. I think you've cleaned up those hybrids and zombies too. Hyde Fortress is finally quiet."

“I just saw some nobles heading this way. Their knights should be able to sense that the matter has come to an end, so they came to check.” The Black Knife Assassin often did reconnaissance.

"Then let's rest here for now."

After a fierce battle, Frilian felt sleepy. She stretched and sat on the fortress steps, hugging her knees. Looking around, she saw that the forest had been razed to the ground, which showed how strong the aftershocks were.

However, this is nothing unusual for top-tier powerhouses. For example, the infamous Battle of Galid at the border region turned an entire country into a wasteland.

Destructive power is one of the symbols of strength, and it inherently possesses an aura effect, which nobles will understand.

“This is the largest war that Nymgford has ever fought since the First Queen,” Auro murmured. “The inscription on the sword records that the last war was when the Valkyrie was traveling south to Galid and passed through Stoneville, where she forced Grik to submit.”

"That's strange. So what level is this demigod at?"

Chapter 35: Obtaining New Equipment, Dancer's Armor

Frilian had already guessed that there was a gap between demigods, but the difference in expressive power recorded in the sword inscription was too great.

Melina, who was standing next to him, continued, "Greek is the weakest demigod, but he does control the Great Rune, which is a major part of the main body, so people are wary of the full effect he can unleash."

"Let's rest first, and then we'll attack the king who's hiding in the city when we're fully prepared."

Currently, the addition of Black Knife Assassins and the Farron Undead Legion has replenished our high-end and mid-tier combat power, but we are still lacking when it comes to siege warfare.

Stoneville is not a good place to deal with.

Having seen it once, Frilian judged that the city was fortified enough, with multiple defenses and densely packed firing positions. Charging in directly would take considerable effort, and she always adhered to one principle:

Fully explore the freedom of the game, and refuse to fight alone in dungeons that can be done alone.

Moreover, the surrounding noble territories are continuously supplying Stoneville with provisions, so it would be best to cut off the supply lines first, otherwise it will turn into a protracted war with too many variables.

Wow!

Suddenly, my inventory started showing new equipment being added, and a charm with an awkward name was also added, the purpose of which I don't know yet.

It turns out that the automatic pickup function was forgotten to be turned off.

It was indeed very convenient; there was no need to painstakingly pick them up one by one, she could simply filter them in the inventory. She glanced at the standard equipment, which was mostly that of Grek soldiers, mixed with some that of noble soldiers, selected the superior items, and put them back out.

In the eyes of her three companions, the silver-haired girl used the blessed space to repeatedly select weapons, collecting them all very carefully.

Although Hyde Fortress looks small on the map, it is actually quite tall and of medium size. It plays a defensive role in the eastern part of Nymgford and is well-equipped.

I reckon Kenneth will find some equipment discrepancies when he gets here.

The player picked it up.

There weren't any other special rewards, since the Farron Undead Legion loot had already been obtained once, all belonging to the Ashbringer account. Skills can be inherited, but equipment and items cannot.

However, an exception has now occurred: the game's main page displays a message indicating that the new MOD is available.

This mod is a cross-platform mod with a limit of 3 uses.

[Randomly synchronize equipment to the current account]

Frillie immediately became interested, and before she could think much about it, the page switched to her previous saved points and started refreshing continuously, as if she were entering a lottery.

[Remnants of Fire×1]

It's pointless to put something useless on the border; statistically, it's very likely to appear, definitely polluting the lottery pool—something I expected.

[The Hammer of Bordeaux]

The high-toughness hammer with built-in endurance combat skill is very useful, but it's extremely heavy and slow, so it's not her preferred type. The famous "Ice Dog Hammer," as described by players, is quite popular, but unfortunately, it's not suitable for mages.

However, in certain weapon-based combat scenarios, Frillie doesn't mind adopting a warrior style.

The last item I drew was the [Dancer's Armor], which I did wear. Besides its good looks, it's comfortable and flexible, providing a low level of defense for mages, and it's not too expensive.

The Dancer's Armor of the Irithyll of the Valley

The Pope's dark eyes ultimately transformed the dancer into a beast.

[It is said that this armor is part of her.]

The boss, clad in this equipment, was incredibly agile and mobile, comparable to the Farron Undead Legion, forcing the mage to maintain a high level of concentration. The scene was littered with player deaths, making it a truly memorable enemy.

Speaking of armor, the Dancer's Set has become the most suitable and sturdy one in Frillie's possession, even stronger than the one dropped by the Grik Soldier.

Whatever.

She needs to have a reliable set of armor for the upcoming demigod conquest battle; otherwise, relying solely on a shield or deflecting attacks would leave her with too little room for error and make her vulnerable to being defeated in one hit, which doesn't align with her usual cautious combat logic.

With this thought in mind, Frillie continued organizing the existing equipment, categorizing and estimating the plans...

Meanwhile, Melina was observing the members of the Farron Undead Legion. They were also looking over, clearly sensing the spirits, and even more so than the Black Knife Assassin.

"An adversary outside the border?"

At first, she didn't quite believe the Faded Ones' claims, but after witnessing the Lord of Cinder's power, she had no choice but to believe it. So, Frilian was also a top powerhouse in her homeland? The world is vast, and many unknowns still exist beyond the mist. The world is boundless.

It's no wonder she described this period of decline as "the final years of a dynasty's collapse" rather than the collapse of a world.

It's not that outsiders have a sense of superiority over locals, but rather that Frillie genuinely possesses a broad perspective and views the border region positively.

A careful observation of the auras of the Farron Immortals reveals the following:

That's what a true apocalyptic world atmosphere looks like.

Happiness is relative. Although it sounds a bit cold, Melina felt that the borderlands were better in comparison. At least there was the Ancient Dragon Era before the Golden Dynasty, as well as other ancient civilizations such as the Ancestral Spirits... so they could get by.

Looking at the future alone, the border region has gradually adapted to its lifeless state after the devastating war, and it is still too early to say that it is going to perish; in fact, it can be said to be a new ecosystem.

Fighting alongside the faded ones in pursuit of the Elden Ring is not about giving the world a way out—that would be too arrogant—but about making the world a better place.

It is a change.

To create a new era that embraces all cultures and is even more prosperous than the bountiful past.

"Lady Frilian, could you tell me something about you and the world of the Farron Undead Legion?"

"Of course, it's nothing to hide." The silver-haired girl finished tidying up and told her companion frankly, "It was a world where the fire was about to go out, decaying and dilapidated..."

The story is primarily told through an opening animation.

Although the riddles were obscure and unfamiliar, Auro and Melina listened with great interest and seemed quite comfortable in the atmosphere of the riddles. Perhaps it was a cultural tradition?

Frillie gave a rough account based on her own experience and understanding.

easy to understand.

Even the Farron Undead Legion listened intently, very curious about how the Ashbringers, as King Hunters, viewed a world where the flames were about to die out. This was the first time the two sides had communicated like this, and all they saw was fighting and killing, with hardly any time to exchange a few words.

Actually, she spoke rather vaguely, feeling that there was no need to explain different games to people in the game, so she didn't go into too much detail. Even so, the audience listened very attentively.

For Melina and Auro, one thing was confirmed: Frilian was the unparalleled hero of their world.

I recounted the events in a very indifferent manner, but those around me found it all the more dramatic and epic.

The silver-haired girl possesses an air of indifference, yet her inner self burns brightly, her passion manifesting in her actions.

do as promised.

He must have kept his promise to the fire-keeper...

In a world where the flames are destined to be extinguished and return to darkness, only this ash-man strives on. But what will be the final outcome? That's a long story, and unfortunately, the tale will be interrupted.

Whoosh!

A signal arrow shot into the air, a signal arranged by Kenneth that the nobles were about to arrive.

……

PS

It will be available for purchase this month, with several consecutive days of 1-word updates, so the reward for sending "blades" (a type of virtual gift) will be quite high. I hope everyone will send some "blades"!

By the way, I recommend older books as a guarantee of their credibility.

"The Succubus Reincarnated: I Know Some National Policies" is on sale.

The novel "The Villain Has a System to Listen to Advice" has just finished airing.

Chapter 36 Kenneth: I will be loyal to you

The noble entourage, hurrying on their way, were filled with unease. A hot, humid air carried on the wind, accompanied by the sharp, gleaming blades of light, suggesting that the battlefield had not yet dissipated.

It's practically a remnant of the legendary war between demigods!

Why did the war between the Farron Undead Legion and the Death Sword reach such a scale? Their performance surpassed that of ordinary heroes, and their destructive power far exceeded that of a single city, potentially annihilating an entire region.

If it weren't for Kenneth's insistence on coming, everyone would have avoided the risk and would have stayed far away.

"Why do we have to make this trip? Can't we just wait for that faded one to report back?"

"Are you dumb?"

Kenneth glared at the minor nobleman and said earnestly, "We can't be too arrogant. I admit I misjudged Frilian's strength before. Fortunately, I didn't say anything bad about her. We may have to cooperate in the future, so we must build a good relationship."

"What's the point of cooperating with the Faded Ones? If it's just about taking on commissions, that's about all the trouble we'll have."

"No, I mean providing asylum."

A direct and blunt remark made the group immediately pull on the reins and stop. Out of respect for the Golden Clan's authority, they wanted to object, but the words stuck in their throats. Everyone knew the current situation; they blamed Grik for inaction.

Ningmgford claims to be peaceful, but in reality, it is inhabited by hybrids and teeming with dragons. The consequences of the Dragon Offering Ritual, which was once a combination of the ancient dragon faith and the Storm King, are now becoming apparent.

With the spread of the Deadborn and the activities of the Faded Ones, there are a lot of problems, and the support of Stoneville City is exactly what we need.

But Greck became increasingly obsessed with using various methods to reattach limbs.

Someone chimed in: "Remember Water Village and the Dead Bird? I sent people to investigate, and it was Lady Freylian who eliminated them. She cleared most of the road to Stoneville City, and the Misty Forest also benefited from her efforts to reduce the number of monsters."
