People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

But one thing made people feel very strange. From beginning to end, Xia Bolili had no intention of dodging, and even took all the attacks from the opponent.

Although Ariana's sword skills were indeed very fast, they were not to the point where they were unavoidable.

It is obvious that there is something wrong with this man, Chapolili, and it is a big problem.

"The sin of insulting my Lord must be paid with your blood!"

Ariana raised the rapier in her hand, and the power of the sun gradually condensed on the slender blade, emitting a dazzling brilliance.

"O merciless sun, pour it down!"

Swah——

The rapier swung down suddenly, leaving a red mark like fire in the air, and the sharp tip of the sword pierced into Xia Bolili's body, tearing it from the shoulder to the waist.

If it had been replaced with a long sword, it would have probably been chopped into two pieces, right?

But it's not over yet.

The sword wound on Xia Bolili's body did not bleed. Instead, it corroded his body like a malignant tumor, and gradually emitted a light that was exactly the same as the light on the sword blade just now.

Boom——

An explosion suddenly sounded, and merciless flames immediately burst out from the wound, engulfing the man's body and sweeping across the earth.

The two prayers performed by Ariana are modifications of the Fire Monk's Prayer and the Fire Giant's Prayer respectively.

Although it is a modification, it has basically deviated from the original appearance and is more powerful.

The heat distorted the air and the flames burned violently, but even so, the man did not fall down, and even laughter could be heard from him.

"Oh, this power is so beautiful..."

Xia Bolili slowly opened his arms and walked out of the flames. An ominous yellow fire ignited on his body, expelling and devouring the flames surrounding him.

Only now did he see the true face of this man——

He had short golden hair, a face full of vicissitudes of life, and a faint smile with a hint of flattery on the corner of his mouth. It was probably a corpse that was dug out from somewhere and attached to it.

Although the scars on his body were still there, he didn't look injured at all.

And I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the fire in Xia Bolili’s eye sockets seemed to grow even stronger.

Weird.

Perhaps because he knew very little about the insane fire in the game, everything Xia Bolili showed now was completely different from what he remembered.

And Ariana, seeing that Chapolili was still at peace, subconsciously clenched the rapier in her hand and rushed forward again.

"Oh, little girl, your swordsmanship is truly beautiful. This time, I will let you hear the cry from the heart of the desperate."

At the moment when the sword was about to pierce through his head, Xia Bolili suddenly opened his mouth and let out a shrill scream that instantly resounded through the sky.

Chapolili's roar!

The invisible sound waves, carrying the crazy fire of the host, pushed away everything around it, and the ground and dirt flew everywhere.

Even Ariana, who was closest to her, was no exception. She was immediately blown away with her sword.

Reinhardt caught the flying Ariana, and her soft and boneless body fell into his arms. His right hand just touched the delicate texture of the black stockings.

Well, it’s quite moist.

"...I'm sorry, Lord Rhine, I failed." Ariana said weakly.

The roaring attack just now was blocked by the power of prayer wrapped around her body, but even so, she still felt a little uncomfortable now, her stomach felt churning, and her vision became a little dizzy.

"It's okay, you've performed very well." Reinhardt comforted.

I was hit by Xia Bolili's roar attack at almost zero distance, and it was a crazy fire attack. To be honest, I was lucky to be alive.

But, it's a bit noisy...

Reinhardt frowned and looked towards Chapolili, saying softly, "Dixi, kill him."

"Haha, what do you think? This is the greatness of the power of Mad Fire. Come and believe in the great Three Fingers of Mad Fire. Let us bring chaos into this narrow space together and become one, indistinguishable from each other!!!"

Just as Chapolili finished his roar and stood there passionately praising the mad fire, the air behind him suddenly twisted slightly.

puff-

Chapolili suddenly stopped his speech, lowered his head and looked at the blade protruding from his chest in disbelief. Behind him, a tall woman appeared, holding the same black knife that pierced his chest.

"Black Blade...Death Rune..."

A dark red flame suddenly ignited and splashed from the blade of the wound, instantly engulfing the man's body, and he fell to the ground with a plop!

You can see that he was very surprised.

It seemed that the appearance of the black knife assassin here was completely beyond his expectations.

However, even after being attacked by the Death Rune, Chapolili did not die immediately. He even raised his head with difficulty and left his last words.

"...Chapolili is equal to Chaos, and will never die."

"Mr. Reinhardt, I will come to you again... When you have seen what despair is, I believe you will no longer reject me and refuse to become the King of Mad Fire..."

"Ah, may chaos take the world!"

"..."

Reinhardt looked down silently at the corpse that was burned black by the flames of death. The mottled embers still lingered on Chapolili's body.

To be honest, he cared a lot about what Chapolili said last.

But what he cared about was not the King of Mad Fire. This guy came to him for just this purpose.

What concerned him was that the Chapolis he was talking about was equivalent to chaos and would never die.

You know, the Death Rune or the destined death that once belonged to Queen Xiaose is enough to kill gods.

But now even Chapolili can't be killed, which is very strange.

And the other party was not lying. In his eyes, Chapolili's soul had indeed disappeared in a strange way, and he was not killed by the Death Rune.

Could it be that... the power of the Three Fingers of Mad Fire is even more powerful than the destined death?

It's not impossible. You know, Crazy Fire Three Fingers is really good at playing with the dead...

115. Malika's Backhand (6K)

Falling leaves bring a message:

On a cold and foggy night, the Death Rune was stolen.

[Gold] Godwin became the first demigod to die, and [Moon Princess] Lani also disappeared at the same time.

The Elden Ring controls life, influences destiny, and can even control the movement of stars, but why is it broken at this moment?

Perhaps, [Eternal Queen] Marika fell into madness and disappeared along with Radagon, King of Elden.

The Golden Dynasty, ruled by no king or god, fell apart, and the demigods joined the war.

Endless flames of war spread across the border...

"It's truly a troubled time..."

Standing on the huge relic stone, Reinhardt looked out at the land of Nimgerfu.

Although the flames of war had not yet spread here, the ungoverned Nimgfu had already shown signs of chaos. Bandits emerged like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, wantonly looting and killing traveling merchants and even residents of various villages.

Even Yizhan Street is like this.

The usual hustle and bustle has disappeared, and the women who dressed up and seduced passers-by have also disappeared, leaving only the empty houses.

The black market traders who settled here have disappeared, and their former residence has even been occupied by a flower called Miranda.

It is a kind of flower that is unique to the border area and is particularly terrifying.

But this is also a good thing, as it can provide better cover for the basement where he lives.

And with Miranda guarding them, ordinary soldiers didn't dare to get close.

"Master, everything is ready." Ariana slowly climbed up the relic stone and said to him respectfully.

"Well, thank you, Ariana, take me."

"Ok."

Following Ariana's footsteps, he jumped onto the grass and came to the back of the ruins stone. There was a towering cliff there, and below was the misty forest shrouded in clouds.

A gentle breeze blew by as Reinhardt stood on the edge of the cliff, looking down at the group of giant rune bears roaming in the forest below.

Some time had passed since the Ring was broken, and he had seen the soldiers and knights stationed here gather and leave.

He also saw with his own eyes that Latan led the Red Lion army through Nimgfu and through the city of Stonewell, preparing to head to the royal city of Rodel.

In addition, even the Kalia Castle in Lienia took corresponding actions -

He chose to stay indoors and refused to let in the nobles who were responsible for managing and ruling his land, forcing them to hide in the fiefdoms they had been granted.

Moreover, Lani has never come to see him until today. When he recalls their last separation, it feels like a farewell.

If there is anything that is not crazy in the border area today, perhaps it is only this enjoyable breeze?

Thinking of this, Reinhardt raised the corner of his mouth slightly, turned around and said, "Aliana, Di Xi, the guard duty will be handed over to you from now on."

He took out the familiar bottle of pure wine from the leather bag and poured himself a glass.

"Okay, my master, please rest assured." Ariana bowed slightly.

And Di Xi appeared in the shadow of the stone at some point, knelt on one knee and lowered his head, still the same as before, wearing an invisible cloak and silver silent armor.

That beautiful face was hidden under the dark hood to conceal her identity.

Speaking of Di Xi, she was also very interesting when she first came. Obviously, Black Knife's disguise could be regarded as the best in the border area, but the moment she stepped into the basement, she was discovered by Se Lian and was almost killed on the spot.

If it weren't for Reinhardt's obstruction and Di Xi's explanation of the reason, he would probably have died long ago.

He really didn't expect that Teacher Se Lian was so strong.

And according to Teacher Seren, all the magicians of the Source School were so strong, especially her teacher Master Lusert and Master Azrael, who were even strong enough to rival the [Full Moon Queen] Lenar.

"It's time to meet that woman, but I don't know how she will appear this time."

Reinhardt muttered something in a voice only he could hear, then drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

To be honest, he was quite looking forward to this meeting.

It’s not that he covets Marika’s body, but if he remembers correctly, after Marika breaks the ring, the Elden beast will appear, kill Marika, the sinner who breaks the ring, and hang her in the middle of the tree.

So, meeting a dead person is really quite interesting.

However, this time, the wine took effect much faster than last time. I felt dizzy right after drinking it, my eyes were a little blurry, and my eyelids gradually became heavy.

While he was still conscious, he lay down on the mat that Aliana had carefully prepared. The familiar sleepiness came over him, and soon he fell into a deep sleep.

...

"...You are finally here." An ethereal voice sounded in my ears.

Reinhardt slowly opened his eyes after hearing the voice, but found that this time was completely different from the last time. This time he actually appeared on the outer wall of the Royal City of Rodel.

Deafening cries of fighting could be heard from beneath the city walls, and from time to time one could even see one or two burning fireballs, trailing choking black smoke, streaking across the sky and crashing into the royal city.

"What's going on?" Reinhardt didn't react for a moment and kept looking around.

Finally, Marika was found standing on the top of the city wall, looking down at the scene below.

And her figure is still as beautiful and charming as ever, the outline of her body is bathed in the golden afterglow, and the golden light complements it.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Reinhardt. I thought you were going to break your promise."

"How could that be? I'm a big believer in promises. Since I promised you, I'll come naturally."

Reinhardt shook his head and happened to meet Marika's neutral gaze as she turned her head to the side. He found that her two eyes were filled with different colors.

One was stained with the colors of the war below the city wall, while the other remained pure gold.

"...Although this is a little late, I still want to thank you... Reinhardt, thank you for coming."

Although her expression was very calm, she was very glad that Reinhardt could come.

Fortunately, we can see each other for the last time in this final time.

"Are you going to say goodbye?"
