Frillian in the Elden Ring

Until now, these monsters still couldn't figure out where the attack came from. They guessed that the caster might be maneuvering at high speed, but how could they possibly chase him under such rapid firepower?

And that pressure broke down the mental defenses.

A large number of demihumans crawled in fear as they faced the bombardment of demonic gravel, as if they were frightened and ready to be killed. They had no power to resist, and the pressure did not allow them to struggle.

After a while.

A tall spiritual horse slowly walked into the gate of the ruins. The silver-haired girl riding on its back looked around and released pyroxene arcs from time to time.

Any relatively intact corpse must be chopped into pieces before it can be left alone.

Then she looked at the massive demihuman leader, cowering in the rubble. Its appearance matched the intelligence description, and it was relatively strong. Over the years, it had killed and devoured countless humans, leaving a strong smell of blood, and it had cleverly hidden itself.

Even though he was protected by the ruins, he was covered in wounds and bleeding, which only aroused his ferocity.

"The staff in your hand looks good, but mine doesn't conform to the magical rules of the borderland..."

"Go to hell!"

The mad monster spoke in human language, kicked its feet and rushed forward suddenly. It was very sure that the current distance was enough to kill!

However, the next moment his body softened as the arc of pyroxene crossed his waist and split him in two. His lower body remained standing, but his upper body lost support and fell, with his internal organs and blood spilling all over the ground.

"There's still air. Then cut it vertically again."

These were the last words it heard in its sinful life.

Fulilian wiped out the ruins of the demi-human forest without much effort. The monsters' numerical advantage was meaningless in front of the top wizard. If they were equipped with a good weapon, they would be able to defeat them faster.

In fact, the Stargazer account comes with a staff, but it is not strong enough, so these days I tend to use the Dark Soul staff, which is also relatively low-level.

Slightly more advanced ones involving world rules can basically only be brought in through MOD.

Now that she had finally obtained a new staff, the excited Fulilian bent down and took the trophy from the hands of the subhuman elite leader. She saw that it was silver in color, and the carved patterns on the top were slightly beautiful.

You have obtained the [Demi-Human Queen's Staff] and the magic [Crystal Scattering], which can be released on the move and has increased charge.

[A pyroxene staff decorated with a scepter]

[Items used to appease Asian people]

[Even people with low intelligence can use it]

[People in the academy regard this cane as a joke]

It's a description, but why the sneering comments from the magic academy? A high opinion of oneself is an obstacle to knowledge.

Fulilian still decided to use the Demi-Human Queen's Staff. Although the intelligence bonus was low, she didn't care. What mattered was the user's own strength. Wouldn't it be even more insulting to use it to beat up the academy's opponents? Both the body and the mind were broken at the same time.

She simply experimented with a few magic spells, which were much more convenient and could better attract the free magic power in the border area. It was stronger than the outsider's wand and was just right as a substitute.

Only at this moment did he officially become a borderline mage in the power system.

It’s you.

At the same time, the wide-area magic perception ** showed a new reaction: there was a basement in the ruins, and perhaps there was another opportunity to open a treasure chest.

Chapter 51 The Sinner’s Shield is Too Ugly (Additional 1)

You have to be very careful when dealing with basements, as narrow and cramped spaces are the most dangerous.

So, as always, Fulilian bent down to maintain her magical perception, and checked the stairs one by one, showing a lot of craftsmanship.

Melina didn't think that was necessary.

From the aura's reaction, she knew that even if there were a monster, there was no need for the Faded One to be so cautious. It was purely habit, and she enjoyed it. However, she had seen so many similar quirks that she had long since become numb to them.

The dust in the basement caused Fulilian to use her magic to blow a gust of wind.

Wow!

A treasure chest suddenly appeared in front of her, and there was nothing unusual around it, so she couldn't wait to open it.

"It's been a while since I've encountered a treasure chest monster."

Amidst the slightly regretful words, I saw only a strange-shaped shield. After picking it up and examining it carefully, I discovered that there was a human face carved on it. The eyes and the entire edge of the shield were covered with thorns, which looked very aggressive.

She weighed it a few times, rolled on the spot to test her mobility, then shook her head.

"I feel it's not as good as the brass shield, so I'll just collect it."

Besides, his shield skills are average to begin with, and he usually uses it to protect others. It's just an active limitation of his strength.

But Fulilian's interest is never limited to intensity. The history and stories behind a treasure are equally important and are of great value to understanding all aspects of the border area.

【Sinner's Shield】

[The witch's eyes were pierced by the sinful thorns]

[Shield made for witch worship]

[It is said that witches will be born again here]

[This is a shield used to soothe the soul and can increase sanity]

[The thorns on the shield can also be used for attack]

It's interesting. From a gameplay perspective, it fits the players perfectly when it appears together with the Demi-Human Queen's Staff, which has lower intelligence requirements. It has a great sense of design.

However, it is quite convenient to hold the Demi-Human Queen's Staff now, so there is no need to use a shield for the time being.

She took out the brass shield and touched it against the sinner's shield. They were about the same in hardness, but the former was very smooth to use. The silver-haired girl murmured, "It would be even better if it could be strengthened with forging stone."

"There are top-notch craftsmen in the Round Table Hall who can help, but they haven't accepted new members for the Grand Blessing in a long time."

Melina offers advice.

"Wait a minute. I don't know my fellow Faded Ones well enough yet. We can talk about the Round Table Hall later, at least until we have the Great Rune."

At most, Fulilian had only met three Faded People related to the Round Table, and she still lacked intelligence. Otherwise, she should not have easily gone to the so-called Great Blessing Space independent of the border area.

I didn't expect my partner to have such high expectations of me.

You wouldn't think the Round Table Hall was full of elites like Bernard, would you? Perhaps it was once filled with experts, but now it's no longer as powerful as it once was. So, after thinking about it, Melina decided that she wouldn't need them for the time being.

At present, Fulilian has sufficient resources and does not need the help of the round table.

In addition, after obtaining the Great Rune, you should be able to get more information by meeting with Two Fingers and contacting Sir Baizhi.

In her eyes, the silver-haired girl was observing the shield with fascination, unable to let go of the new weapon. In fact, she was reading the player reviews:

【Sinner's Shield Ugly Rejection】

[Strength is a matter of version nerfing, but appearance is a matter of a lifetime]

[It's just equipment I got in the early stages. I can barely use it. There's nothing special about the entire Weeping Peninsula Novice Village.]

The Demi-Human Queen's Staff is a good item, enough for a mage to use for a while, especially in the early stages when various attribute points are insufficient and mainly allocated to health. I recommend everyone to equip it.

[Good appearance, can be used]

[It is recommended that mages go to the Corruption Lake in Galid to pick up the Meteorite Staff]

It's a bit early, but you can go to Lienia of the Lake to level up and collect things first.

[Stay in the Weeping Peninsula and Nimgerfu to plunder Rune, and do some side quests to accumulate levels before opening new maps.]

No, no, no, we have to reach Gayleed, especially the Magic Town.

【Dark Night Comet Praise】

...Everyone had their own opinions, but generally speaking, it gave Fulilian some references, such as the fact that the neighboring Galid actually hid a lot of good things, and it was not far away, so she could go there at any time.

But she didn't like the apocalyptic wasteland scene. Crimson corruption didn't sound like a good thing. Instead of collecting it, she should be more concerned about how to eliminate that kind of pollution.

Moreover, that is the territory of General Latan, the Starbreaker, who is known as the strongest demigod, so we must make long-term plans.

Even though he was unconscious, the Knight of the Red Lion still held on.

In fact, from a geopolitical perspective, the trinity of Nimgefu, Gelid, and the Weeping Peninsula should be connected to form the rear base, with Lake Lienia being the best buffer zone for natural dangers, enough to defend against the Yatan Plateau.

hold on.

We’ll talk about exploring the surroundings later. Now, Fulilian is about to set off again and take down the most threatening sealed prison on the peninsula first.

She mounted Torret again and left the forest.

At the edge of the woods, they encountered people who had been relocated repeatedly to avoid the demihuman rebellion. After seeing the trophy of the demihuman leader's head and the noble emblem, they realized that times had changed.

Unexpectedly, the nobles submitted to a faded person and recognized him as their king?

"No, let me clarify." Fulilian quickly explained, "I haven't become king yet, and Lord Morn is currently cooperating with us, not surrendering."

"It doesn't matter. For years we haven't waited for any Grek soldiers, but only for you."

"Lord Fulilian, please be our king!"

"Long live--"

Without even listening to her detailed explanation, the crowd celebrated, their cheers like mountains and seas shaking the forest, as if it were reborn.

For them, it was more of a release. After all, they had been ignored for so long, feeling abandoned. Now that someone had saved them, how could they not shed tears? The demihuman scourge had finally ended.

Besides, everyone was impressed by the power displayed by Fulilian. She didn't need any ceremony. Her unrivaled spirit proved that she was the king.

The creatures at the border can most feel the power of Rune, which is genuine.

"Then I'll give you some benefits."

The silver-haired girl waved her staff, and thanks to the blessing of the new weapon, the unfinished soul healing became even more powerful, and warmth spread out in ripples.

Those who were suffering from the pain of becoming a zombie or were about to be transformed were cheered up, their decay was curbed or even stopped, and they even got better. Those with mild symptoms turned back into normal people directly. It was a true miracle.

This time they no longer called out, but only cried for joy, for hope.

Fulilian smiled and asked, "I want to go to the Sealed Prison on the Weeping Peninsula. Who knows the fastest way?"

"I--"

The people of the forest raised their hands one after another, not afraid of the reputation of the sealed one at all, and would rather follow the king to death. After all, as long as the soul returns to the tree normally, it is still a hero.

Rather than facing danger, everyone would rather follow the king who has mastered unheard-of soul magic.

What is there to be afraid of? With this miracle, people in the borderland don't fear death, only abnormal death.

As a result, Fulilian was followed by a large group of people, very powerful.

Chapter 52: Unexpected Cemetery (Additional Part 2)

One day and one night after the battle in the Demi-Human Forest, everything suddenly became clear.

Riding on horseback, Fulilian looked into the distance with her hands on the pergola. The earth stretched out, lush and green, stretching as far as the eye could see.

"It's truly remarkable how nature can create such beautiful sights. This place is a great place to live, and it should be well developed in the future. Melina, have you ever seen it before?"

"No."

"Didn't you once travel to the borderland?"

"No, actually, the days when I was searching for those whose qualifications to become king had faded weren't as long ago as you think... Most of the time I stayed in one place, organizing documents and practicing skills."

She was vague when talking about her past. After all, even she herself was not quite clear about the specific arrangements.

Given only a goal, the process was vague and entirely up to her, so Melina didn't know how to tell everything, nor should she say it.

She sighed and leaned against Fulilian's back, her long silver hair scratching her cheeks and bringing a fragrant scent.

“…So you still have to experience it yourself.”

"Have you ever seen the Age of Plenty?"

"To be more precise, I was there but didn't witness it. You can understand why I've always locked myself in a study. When prosperity faded and war arrived, that's when I had to act. Therefore, my impression is more of desolation and decay."

"Forced?"

Suddenly, Fulilian turned around and looked at Melina seriously and asked, even emitting a hint of pressure. The villagers who followed her were confused. Why was she yelling at the air?

"Don't get me wrong, this is a sacred mission bestowed upon me by Mother, and I gladly accept it."

"It's indeed inappropriate to ask about family matters so early, but if you change your mind and feel that you shouldn't have closed yourself off at that time, you can find a target to blame, and then I will help you deal with that person."

"Wouldn't that mean I'm looking for problems in others?"

"Yes, reducing internal friction and making life slow and optimistic is the philosophy my hometown has always upheld."
