My team members turned out to be heroic spirits

It's not the captain's character to abandon his comrades and run away.

So, today they are all going to fall here.

Then, in the darkness, a little spark appeared.

The flames are lit.

It's just that it's not a dark flame, but a bright red flame.

The figure with a faint flame burning on its body stood up.

"That's... the captain?"

The outline of the figure was somewhat familiar, as if it belonged to the captain.

At this moment, Erzhu didn't notice anything was wrong with the surrounding environment.

The once solid clods of soil are disintegrating into strange cubes.

At the same time, transparent ripples and fluctuations began to occur.

Then, the big farmer's eyes began to become dull and numb.

Because, there seems to be something more in his mind.

"It turns out...I'm already dead..."

Erzhuzi murmured to himself.

the other side.

The ancient ring seal knight felt a powerful aura begin to emerge.

The face under the hood finally turned serious.

This is a strong enemy.

As the flames grew brighter.

Its expression also gradually changed.

"……here is?"

The powerful knight following the abyss looked a little surprised.

But it soon turned into calm.

As the abyssal creatures closest to the origin of the abyss, they are immortal.

Every death leads to rebirth in the abyss.

It remembered that the last time it appeared in the outside world was decades ago.

At that time, it was besieged by many humans and eventually fell to the outside world.

Now, he appears in the outside world again.

I just don't know where this is.

Also, the enemy in front of me...

"First fire!"

It cried out in surprise.

The ancient ring-seal knight confirmed that he had read it correctly. It was the first fire that had been extinguished long ago.

The Abyss spread and took over most of the world. Those who resisted endured for thousands of years, protected by the First Fire. Then the flames died out and the world fell into darkness.

But the ignition of the original fire was nowhere to be found.

The Ring Seal Knights try to find the first fire in a world that has fallen into darkness to create a human world.

But they failed.

The fire was nowhere to be found.

The endlessly spreading abyss finally went berserk, biting back humans and turning them into monsters. Only the knights who followed the Lord of the Abyss still maintained their human form and sanity.

The Lord of the Abyss himself was swallowed by the rampaging darkness and became a terrifying monster without reason.

This is completely different from the original plan.

After overthrowing the rule of the Sun God Clan, the world should have entered the era of mankind.

But the reality is that, except for them, all other humans have become deformed abyss monsters and have lost any sense.

The world has become a paradise for monsters.

Humanity?

There are no humans left, only irrational monsters wandering among the ruins.

Even if these ring-seal knights who survived the dragon-hunting war are still alive, it doesn't make any sense.

Not only was the almighty Sun God Clan destroyed, but human civilization was also destroyed.

This fact almost caused them to collapse directly.

The original intention of the Lords of the Abyss and them is to overthrow the rule of the Gods, expose the lies of the Sun Gods, and allow humans to dominate the new era, but it is definitely not to destroy human civilization together.

"First Fire...we have to get it."

The ancient ring seal knight quickly calmed down.

The initial fire has incredible power, and it is not impossible to reverse time and space.

Even if its power seems very weak now, the Ring Seal Knight has a way to make it stronger. That is to learn from the methods of the Sun God Clan and collect firewood and invest in it.

In order for their brethren and civilization to revive again, the First Fire must be held in hand.

Human beings in the outside world can be used as firewood, and the most important initial fire is right in front of you.

As for the holder of the Initial Fire, he is not very strong.

Much weaker than him.

According to outsiders, it is probably the realm of a sub-server.

Although he is currently limited by the environment, his strength is about the level of a low-level heroic spirit that has just broken through.

But that's not the problem.

From the time they survived the Dragon Hunting War to the present day, every Ring Seal Knight is an extremely powerful being.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to become the guardian of the Lord of the Abyss.

Now, they are also the jailers of the horrific monsters who have lost their minds, waiting for the day when the Lord of the Abyss wakes up from his madness.

But now, there may be a way other than waiting.

That is to use the power of the initial fire.

Then, they ancient humans will reappear in the world.

"call……"

The magic power of the abyss fills the body.

If the magic power exceeds the limit, it will be expelled back into the abyss because the magic power of the abyss is not enough to maintain the current world.

But it doesn't matter.

Just a sub-server.

However, the Ring Seal Knight opened his eyes wide, and his eyes were once again filled with astonishment.

Because a familiar outline appeared——

"Artreus?"

That is one of the most powerful combat powers of the Sun God Clan after the King of Gods inherited the Initial Fire.

He also broke into the abyss that was just born and wounded the Lord of the Abyss.

If the Protoss hadn't been arrogant and didn't understand the characteristics of the abyss, causing Artreus to be infected by the abyss and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, then the Lord of the Abyss might have been killed.

"No, definitely not him."

The Ring Seal Knight shook his head and got rid of this idea.

Artorius was infected by the abyss, and finally committed suicide when his consciousness was about to be controlled by the abyss.

Even so, the spread of the nascent abyss has been greatly slowed down.

As the guards of the Lord of the Abyss, they have naturally fought against each other.

Those were legendary and powerful knights. Even if they were on hostile sides, they had to admire each other.

But it does not mean that they want to see each other reappear in the world.

"Perhaps it was through the First Fire that I obtained the inheritance of Artorius?"

The Ring Seal Knight speculated.

It doesn't matter what the truth is.

There is only one important thing now, and that is to kill the opponent in this unknown space and take away the first fire.

…………

Chapter 62 Battle

The ultramarine knight appeared in this space that had been isolated by the flames.

Past and present are intertwined here.

It’s just that Jiang Li doesn’t know anything anymore.

He only had eyes for the abyss creature in front of him.

I don't know where the power comes from but fills my body.

The knight didn't notice that something was wrong with his body at the moment.

There were red sparks falling from its body.

A dark sword emerged from one hand, and a large shield emerged from the other hand.

There was a ring on his finger, engraved with a pattern of a wolf looking up to the sky and howling.

The silver-white necklace also appeared on the neck at some point, exuding a faint fluctuation of magic power.

More importantly, a large wolf as tall as a man appeared beside the knight.

There is a holy white sword in his mouth.

There was a fierce look in his vertical pupils.

"..."

When the Ring Seal Knight saw this scene, his hands shook slightly.

It was this combination that broke through their defenses and came to the Lord of the Abyss.

Then he calmed down quickly.

The legendary knight has long since died in the past.

The present is but a phantom of the past.

Even if he obtained the inheritance of that knight, he would still be no match for him.

Having said that, the ancient powerful knight was still wary.

Artorias's weapons and equipment restrain the Abyss, and the great sword held in the mouth of his partner Sif also restrains the Abyss.

Even if you are stronger than the opponent now, if you are hit, you will still be hurt because you are restrained.

Ordinary weapons cannot break through the defense of armor that has been soaked in the abyss for countless years, but weapons that restrain the abyss can easily break through the defense of the abyss magic stained on it. Next, it is purely a competition between materials.

"..."

The black flames of the abyss were attached to the tip of the spear.

The Ring Seal Knight became serious.
