Elden Clergyman

"Oh, wait, if she's your sister, then you're both the daughter of the Full Moon Queen and Malika?"

Lani: “?”

Melina: “?”

What nonsense is this person talking about?

For some reason, after Lord said this, the Mage Tower suddenly became quiet.

But Lord did not notice anything unusual on the field. After thinking for a moment, he slapped his head.

"Oh, no, there's also the First King, Ge Fulei. And as a divine being, Marika can also transform into Radagon. Maybe she can give birth herself. Um... Well, I'm sorry, I spoke so rudely before. I apologize."

Even more dead silence.

"No, wait, if that's the case..."

Lord seemed to have thought of something again, but before he could open his mouth, a blue figure rushed in from outside and covered his mouth tightly.

"Brother, please stop talking. You are my brother. Please shut up."

Lena originally wanted to stay hidden outside and watch the excitement for a while, but before she could even see anything, she heard Lord throw out two bombs.

How could she dare to let him continue talking? If she didn't cover his mouth, Marika's golden hammer might fly over from the sky.

"you are?"

Seeing the blue figure suddenly rushing in, Lani frowned instinctively.

But after seeing the other person's appearance clearly, especially after sensing the familiar power fluctuations from her body, her body stiffened.

"Old...not right."

Lani's eyes narrowed and she spoke seriously.

"You are not her."

"Yeah, I'm not."

While covering Lord's mouth, fearing that he would say something outrageous again, Lena turned her head and looked at Lani who was sitting in the seat.

"But you're not the 'Lani' I remember. In my impression, you were a cute red-haired child, not someone dressed like the Snow Witch, using her name, and even having three books under her butt—"

"You were the first one to do it!"

Under the continuous impact, Lani, who had been maintaining a mysterious and deep posture in her seat, finally couldn't hold it anymore and let out a sharp explosion. Only after the explosion did she realize that something was wrong.

"Wait, you..."

"I'm definitely not the 'Reina' you remember."

After making sure Lord shut up, Lena released her hand that was covering his mouth, raised her hands, and showed her the two fragments on the back of her hands.

"But like her, I hope that the child at that time can finally get the ending she wants."

"I used to doubt my own existence, but now I feel that my appearance and existence may be to complete her unfulfilled 'mission'."

silence.

The two people had similar body shapes and faces, and they just looked at each other with increasingly complicated expressions.

The atmosphere also began to change gradually.

Reunion? Doubt? Or something else...

Until someone's voice rang out, breaking the silence.

"Well, shouldn't we talk about business?"

Lord looked at the two people in front of him and blinked.

"What's the matter?"

Lani looked at Lord, her expression returning to its previous mysterious elegance. "Come to think of it, you haven't told me why you came to see me."

"I really forgot to say it. It's mine."

Lord nodded and continued seriously.

"Simply put, your mother is dying, and we've come to you to help save her."

Lani: “…?”

Chapter 43: Stop Lani and torture her

Lani didn't know how to describe her current mood.

Although only a few minutes had passed since the strange faded person came in, it felt like centuries had passed.

At the beginning, he brought Melina in, and suddenly made a violent statement during the conversation. Before she could react, he pulled out Reina, and now he directly said "Your mother is going to die"...

To be honest, Lani wasn't a person with a lot of emotions. In her past life, especially after the 'Night of the Black Knife', she had basically never experienced any drastic emotional changes. But now...

She took a deep breath, managed to calm herself down, then looked at Lord and was about to ask something when Lena took the lead.

"I said it, I said it!"

Lena really didn't dare to let Lord speak anymore. Otherwise, if they continued talking, even if he didn't make some outrageous remarks and draw Marika's hammer, it was very likely that Lani would get so angry that she would explode with him directly.

Then, Lena explained the situation at the academy and their previous experiences there to Lani in the briefest possible way.

"That is to say, there is a time-space disorder in the academy, and there seems to be a very dangerous thing inside, as if it wants to do something, but it is entangled by my mother and others..."

After listening to Reina's narration, Lani nodded and thought for a moment.

"No wonder my clone left there didn't sense anything, and Iggy said there was no problem, but he also reported that strange things often happen in Lake Lienia..."

After a pause, she raised her head and looked at Lord.

"It sounds like you know what 'that thing' is?"

Lord nodded. "I know, Heath, we're old friends."

As an old Soul 5 player, Lord is very familiar with this guy.

Although he was killed by the chosen undead in the first generation and used to pass on the fire, both his body and soul were burned to ashes.

But until the end of the third generation, that guy's shadow has been flowing everywhere in the Dark Souls world along with the crystal magic.

Is it dead? Yes, it is dead, completely dead both physically and spiritually.

But that thought, that desire for immortality, and the shadow hidden behind the soul crystal technology can turn anyone obsessed with soul crystal research into a new 'White Dragon Hiss'.

From this perspective, it has indeed achieved its original goal and gained a life that is even more eternal than that of the immortal ancient dragon.

but......

Lord thought about it and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Well, if it was a being contaminated by crystallized knowledge and turned into 'White Dragon Hiss', it shouldn't have reacted so strongly to 'Scaleless Newborn' and 'Moonlight Greatsword'.

After all, we are not ancient dragons, and we don't have immortal dragon scales on our bodies. Although the Moonlight Greatsword is a legendary weapon, everyone is yearning for it, so there is no need to be so anxious.

But after hearing that roar, especially the exasperated feeling in it...

Lord's expression became subtle.

Could it be that Hispenlong won the resurrection match?

Kids, I'm back.jpg

After hearing Lord's answer and seeing the obvious nostalgic look on his face, the expressions of others looking at him also became subtle.

So this guy knows that guy in the academy?

Although the white dragon Seath roared "Lord" at that time, because it was the dragon roar from the Dark Souls world, and the voice was distorted due to anger, not to mention others, even Lord himself was stunned for a long time before realizing that the other party might be calling him.

As for Lord's shout back, because it was countered by the roar, the sound was a little distorted, and he usually had a lot of strange behaviors, so no one paid attention to it at the time.

But now think about it...

"You, know it?" Reina blinked.

"Not very familiar, but I know a little bit."

Lord shook his head. After the remaining flames faded, he now only thought that Heath was an old man with one soul, and subconsciously ignored the origin of the moonlight sword in his hand.

Afterwards, he did not hide it and told the people around him about what he knew about Heath's settings.

But at this point we have to mention Lord's language ability.

Although Lord often complained about others speaking in riddles and that he couldn't understand what they were saying, in fact, his own words sounded like riddles to others.

Things like 'cancel', 'Soul 5', 'small sickle', 'my ring straight will not lose', not to mention Lani who just met him, even Melina who has been with him all the time still doesn't understand what they mean.

However, although they could not fully understand what Lord said, they at least extracted a few key words from it.

'Scaleless Ancient Dragon', 'Existence that longs for immortality', 'Developed Soul Crystallization Technology'...

There are ancient dragons in the border area, and the Golden Dynasty is even quite familiar with them. Not only have they fought each other, but they also became allies after the fight.

Although I have never heard of the existence of a person named 'White Dragon Hiss' in the Ancient Dragon Camp, considering that the Faded Ones all died and returned from outside the border area, they might be a member of the dragon clan branch outside the border area.

The desire for eternal life is the easiest to understand and needs no explanation. As for the 'development of soul crystal technology', considering that Hiss has appeared, there is no need to hide this thing. Lord simply rubbed a piece of soul crystal with his hands and showed it to them.

After watching it, there was a long period of silence.

"No wonder Mother and the Academy were able to team up to deal with this thing. This is really... indescribable."

Looking at the soul crystal in Lord's hand, Lani sighed.

To be honest, Lani never thought of herself as a good person. Even when communicating with people around her, she would not hide it and would say bluntly, "I will betray everything and abandon everything."

But even for her, after figuring out what was contained behind those soul patterns, she felt it was a bit too abstract.

but......

"Why do you also know this 'skill'?" Lani asked in a subtle tone.

Lord said as a matter of course: "Because I have learned it."

Lani: “…”

Well, she shouldn't have asked.

After confirming the nature of the soul crystal, Lani was basically certain that the other party was looking for her to cooperate and did not have any other intentions.

After all, this kind of technology that requires eternal condensation of the soul, let alone the Golden Tree camp, even if you pull out Crazy Fire, you might be able to use it as a teammate.

Retracting her gaze, Lani slowly crossed her hands in front of her, looking at Lord and Melina in front of her, her eyes flashing slightly.

Moreover, this is also an opportunity.

For some reason, Lani didn't have a very good reputation in the border area, otherwise she wouldn't have had to use various aliases to cover up when meeting Lord.

Originally, she had two brothers who were also from the La family with whom she could communicate and cooperate.

But now, one of the two brothers was swallowed by a snake, and the other was contaminated by some force and went crazy, and their respective subordinates were also dealing with their own messes and could not provide her with any help.

As for Kalia, let's not talk about whether the people of the Kalia faction are completely in the same mind as the Kalia royal family. Even if they are, they are now deeply mired in the quagmire of war between them and the academic faction. They can't even protect their own queen, let alone help her.

Or to put it more directly.

She is now alone and weak and needs help.

But Lani also knew that the more urgent the matter was, the more she couldn't let others see it, otherwise it would easily have the opposite effect.

Not to mention that now, compared to her own plan, there is obviously a bigger problem to deal with. Not only is it related to her mother's safety, but it can also be used as an opportunity...

"What?"

Looking at Lani in front of him, Lord suddenly spoke.

"Did you really put books on the chair? If it's not high enough, why not get a bigger chair? I know a craftsman who can make one for you..."

Lani: “…”

Looking at Lord in front of her with a serious face, Lani suddenly felt a little tired and even began to doubt herself.

So, facing this kind of person, were all the thoughts she just had really necessary?
