From Dungeon to Gaming Empire

Meng Bai couldn't help but speculate: "Why do you want to enter Stonewell City so much? What you are looking for... is it also the Great Rune in Greg's hand?"

Greg is one of the Shard Lords who wields the Ring Shard.

The fragments formed after the Elden Ring was broken are the Great Rune.

If an adventurer wants to become the King of Elden, he needs to collect a certain number of Great Runes. If Roger also wants Great Runes, the two will only become rivals and it will be difficult for them to cooperate sincerely.

But surprisingly, Roger didn't seem to be interested in the Great Rune in Greg's hand.

He said, "When Greg left the royal city of Rodel, he not only took away a fragment of the Ring, but also an important item. It is the latter that I am looking for."

Meng Bai was skeptical: "What on earth is that?"

Roger seemed to be hesitant, but after thinking for a few seconds, he decided to tell the truth.

He asked, "Do you know the Deadborn?"

Meng Bai was puzzled: "What is a dead birth?"

Roger said in a grave tone, "This is a strange disaster that originated from the 'Night of the Black Knife Conspiracy' and was caused by the 'Prince of Death' Godwin. The Deadborn are strange beings that were born from death but cannot return to death."

Mengbai fell into thought.

According to Roger's description, the Deadborn are a kind of strange creature born from death. Although they sound like undead, they are definitely not ordinary undead.

Because it is at the border of the rule of law.

There has never been a real concept of death.

All living things will die, but all living things will not die.

It is said that in the ancient melting pot era, all living beings in the world, regardless of race, were born from the original melting pot and returned to the melting pot.

After the Golden Tree Era officially begins, all living things will have a ceremony to return to the tree. In this magical land, life only changes in form and state, following a certain law of conservation, and there will be no true and complete death.

This is the case.

Until the night of the Black Knife.

The former "Golden" Godwin was the most perfect child of the "Eternal Queen" Marika. On this night, he was assassinated by a group of black knife assassins using a black knife containing mysterious power.

After Godwin's death.

He did not enter the reincarnation system of the Golden Tree.

Therefore, he is the first dead person in the true sense, so he is called "Prince of Death" Godwin, and the breaking of the Golden Rule and the Circle of Law also started on the night of the Black Knife Conspiracy.

"What a strange rule."

"Godwin sounds like the eldest son of 'Eternal Queen' Marica and 'Primordial Elden King' Godfrey. He is also the most perfect and powerful of all their children, and was originally the most ideal heir to the Golden Tree Dynasty."

"It was his death that led to the collapse of the Golden Dynasty, which was once growing stronger."

"So who killed him?"

"This is definitely a big conspiracy!"

"Before this, the creatures of the borderland would never completely disappear. Why did Godwin not only become the most completely dead, but also trigger the phenomenon of the dead born?"

"..."

Mengbai and the adventurers in Miracle City all made a series of guesses based on the existing information.

However, since the information available at this stage is very limited, this information may not be accurate, so the guesses may not be correct, but they really like the feeling of unraveling the truth from fragmented information.

It is true that Roger is a faded one.

However, he has no interest in becoming the King of Elden.

His sole goal is to investigate the truth surrounding the Night of the Black Knife Conspiracy and the Deathborn Curse that arose from that Night of the Black Knife.

On the surface, the Deadborn are indeed the undead as understood by adventurers. Since the appearance of Prince Godwin of Death, strange creatures that have died and are unable to return to the legal system have begun to appear in the border areas.

Some people believe that the phenomenon of the dead is a punishment from the Supreme Will.

Some people also believe that this is a curse from the dead Prince Godwin.

They are like a plague that cannot be completely eradicated. Not only do they torment all living beings in the border areas, but they also have the tendency to spread rapidly and cover the entire world.

Once sentient beings are unable to die properly.

The world will lose its ability to metabolize.

Eventually it will become lifeless like a pool of stagnant water.

Roger's current goal is to find out the reason for the birth of the Deathborn. It is known that the appearance of the Deathborn must be related to the "Prince of Death" Godwin, so to investigate the Night of the Black Knife and the Deathborn, Godwin must be found.

"The dead Prince Godwin has been buried deep within the roots. I can't enter that place with my abilities..."

"But according to my investigation, when Greg fled the royal city of Rodel, he not only took away a fragment of the Ring, but also took away part of the dead prince's body..."

After listening to Roger's explanation.

Mengbai roughly understood the whole story.

Although many of the concepts and clues here are quite obscure, judging from Roger's behavior, this person does not seem to be lying.

He probably really has no interest in becoming the Elden Circle. He just wants to find the remains or clues of the dead prince, to find a way to solve the "Dead Born" phenomenon from the root, and to understand the truth of the "Night of the Black Knife Conspiracy"!

interesting!

Mengbai developed a very strong interest.

Although the Elden Ring did not clearly pop up the task prompt, she had already realized that both solving the problem of the Dead Born and investigating the Black Knife Conspiracy Night were two very important side tasks!

It allows people to better understand the operating principles of the laws of the border area and the Elden Law Ring world.

The latter is the beginning of all stories. Only by finding out the truth about the night of the Black Knife Conspiracy can we know the main story that happened at the border.

"I promise to enter Stonewell City and find the remains of the dead prince for you!"

Mengbai had a lot of thoughts in his mind at this moment. The adventurer's target was the Great Rune in Greg's hand, which could repair the magic ring. He was also interested in the Deadborn and Black Blade Night.

Maybe I can continue to use him.

For example, using full assistance in investigating the dead prince as a bargaining chip and exchange condition.

Let Roger work hard in the next adventure in Stonewell City and reduce the difficulty of capturing the Great Rune for himself.

The next thing to do is to capture the Storm level.

Only in this way can we open the passage into Stonewell.

This battle in Miracle City was not easy, because the Storm Pass was not only easy to defend due to its mountain construction, but also had one or two hundred Grek soldiers stationed there, including several powerful Grek knights.

Of course.

This is not a problem for adventurers.

With Roger's help, Mengbai only needs to gather a group of people to take it down quickly.

When Mengbai launched an attack on the Storm Level, other adventurers in Miracle City also made discoveries and gains one after another. For example, Higanbana accidentally broke into a place called Gaileyd.

Chapter 251 Dragon Breath Ruins

Border area.

This is a land full of mystery.

It attracted many powerful adventurers from Miracle City to come and explore.

For example, well-known adventurers include Baihe Jushi, Wanshan Guhong, Higanbana, Sanzhu, Fengzhongmian, etc.

In addition, there are several lords disguised as adventurers, such as Ran Tianyun and Gao Yue, who are also wandering in the border area at this moment, which shows the charm of this land.

Red spider lily is one of the main forces in exploring the border area.

He is currently one of the adventurers with the fastest exploration progress.

Higanbana is different from the somewhat stubborn Mengbai or Baihe Jushi, who are adventurers who like to challenge their limits.

She focused on efficiency and knew how to adapt, so after coming out of the Drifting Cemetery, she only fought with the Tree Guardian twice and immediately realized that this opponent was not someone she could deal with in a short period of time.

Decisively give up the challenge.

Choose to take a detour to explore other areas.

Finally, through his own exploration and intelligence, he triggered Melina and the "witch" Lena, obtained the spirit horse, the summoning bell and the wild wolf ashes, and then arrived at the storm level.

The checkpoint is heavily guarded.

No rash actions.

She sneaked into the ruined military camp in front of the pass to conduct reconnaissance, found out the departure time of Greg's transport convoy, and then went to the Blessing Camp to recruit people and play the robbery game.

She specifically brought the Faded to ambush Greg's escort convoy.

Kill the escorting Grek soldiers and plunder the important supplies they are transporting.

Every time you succeed, quickly evacuate back to the blessing to rest, and use the blessing to rest to quickly skip time and enter the next game.

He repeated this several times and killed nearly a hundred Grek soldiers. He not only obtained a lot of supplies and equipment, but most importantly, he accumulated enough runes, thus completing a breakthrough in strength.

Her current strength at the border area has reached the second level and one star.

Higanbana originally wanted to continue robbing Runes and collecting supplies, but she never expected that Greg had increased the security of the supply escort team and even deployed knights and even limb-jointed nobles to counter the ambush.

In a failed robbery, the "Higanbana Bandit Squad" was completely wiped out.

Several Faded companions were tragically killed.

"Oh, it's not that easy. It seems I can't do it in a short time." Having lost several good partners, Higanbana also realized that his career as a bandit was not a long-term plan after all.

It’s too difficult to attack Stonewell City now!

The red spider lily has never been a stubborn young man. She immediately decided to change direction!

Unlike Mengbai who just came to Miracle City, Higanbana has a very deep foundation in Miracle City. Not only does she have a lot of contribution points, she also has subordinates from the Yellow Springs Corps.

She even hired a group of dwarf and kobold intelligence agents.

The daily work of these hired territory dwellers is simple. They just need to go to various secret crystals to collect information.

According to the intelligence, adventurers in the current border area can not only venture near the city of Stonewell, but also explore areas such as Lake Yakir and the Weeping Peninsula.

There is a place called Dragon's Breath Ruins near Lake Yakir.

There are a large number of zombie residents over there.

Very easy to kill!

Although the runes obtained by a single zombie resident are few, because there are enough zombies and their strength is very weak, it is a good place for adventurers to collect runes!

Since it is difficult to break through Stonewell City for the time being.

Why not change direction?

Let’s go here!

Higanbana immediately returned to the Drifting Cemetery through the blessing, and then rode the spirit horse Torret to the Dragon's Breath Ruins. She was decisive and full of execution!

"In order to impress the Lord..."

"I will not only become the King of Elden, but I will become the first King of Elden!"

That’s what the red spider lily thought!

She considers herself Lord Qi Ji's number one die-hard fan.

Because of this, they will work harder to show themselves, just to get praise and attention from their idols. Now that Miracle City is getting bigger and bigger, there are many powerful people hidden in the adventurer group.

There are senior and top adventurers such as Zang Shanhai, Wanshan Guhong, and Baihe Jushi.

There are also local adventurers with mysterious origins such as Artus, Vesaros, and Mengbai.

There are also four great lords and the top masters around them, who are also very strong competitors.

However, Higanbana is still confident, and her advantages are still obvious, because she has achieved the first-clear achievements of the Ashina chapter and the Sui and Tang chapters, and has successively exploded dozens of spirits, unlocked dozens of equipment skills, and participated in and even led most of the important territory missions.

Solid accumulation!

Deep financial resources!
