Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 332 Supporting Role
Dream world.

Klein calmly watched the war between the Soul-sucking Ghost and Gollum, and finally stepped forward to reap the life of the surviving Gollum - this situation was not common, after all, most of the time the Soul-sucking Ghost won.

Before opening the door to the mausoleum where the Abyss Watcher resided, Klein summoned a helper on the uneven platform in front of the steps—the King's Black Hand, Goldhild.

Goldhild is the Black Hand who serves the royal family of Lothric, and has enough power to contend with the three pillars of Lothric, the Knight, the High Priest, and the Sage!

And most importantly, all members of this pillar are staunch followers of the Fire Transmission Faction.

It was for this reason that Klein could see the white rune belonging to Goldhildt outside the Abyss Watcher's door. And if he continued to advance, he would also be able to see Goldhildt's white rune in front of Salivan's door.

Only after he kills the Abyss Watcher, the God-devouring Eldridge, and the Giant King Yum step by step and obtains their firewood, Godelsit will risk his life to go to the Great Library to steal the key, and eventually die in front of the door of the Great Library.

But that wasn't why Crane summoned him.

Crane summoned him because he needed a meat shield to draw fire.

In order to hunt down the first Cinder King as quickly as possible and complete the digestion of the potion, Klein did not even go to the Deep Church, but chose to go directly to the door of the Abyss Watcher.

"call."

Klein took a deep breath and walked step by step to the gate of the temple.

Inside the room, there was a constant sound of ping-pong. It was the sound of swords clashing against each other. Even the heavy door could not completely block it out!

Rumble!
As Klein pushed the door open with all his strength, he finally saw the scene inside the house clearly:

In the hall where the walls were piled with candles, the ground was littered with the bodies of the undead.

At the end of the hall, two Abyss Watchers were engaged in a most primitive fight—

They were once the closest comrades-in-arms and companions who shared wolf blood, but now they are killing each other!

They were the only remaining self-aware members of the Farran Undead Corps, fighting against their comrades who had been eroded by the abyss.

The Undead Corps has been fighting against the abyss for years, but they themselves have also been eroded by the abyss. Those members who still have self-awareness have to kill their comrades who have been eroded by the abyss with their own hands.

But each of them is immortal, and each of them will be reborn after death.

Therefore, this fratricidal battle will continue endlessly.

At least before Klein arrived, this battle had lasted for who knows how long...

The last remaining conscious Undead Soldier pierced his comrade's chest, temporarily ending his life.

He slowly pulled out the Fran sword, and the bodies of his comrades slowly fell along with the pulled out sword.

The surviving Undead Squad turned around slowly and calmly, and cast their gaze towards Klein who had pushed the door open.

His movements were extremely slow. The endless fighting had already exhausted him and his spirit had become numb.

He said nothing, but calmly performed the Fran Undead Corps etiquette to Klein, then quickly rushed over with his sword in hand! -
At eight o'clock on Friday night, in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall.

Men and women of all kinds danced on the dance floor of the hall. The ladies wore luxurious and expensive dresses, and half of the men also wore custom-made luxurious dresses. They were all upper-class nobles of the kingdom. The other half wore military uniforms, with shoulder straps and medals as symbols of their past honors. They were all active officers of the kingdom, or at least colonels.

The reason is very simple. The dinner party held by the Hall family tonight is prepared for Alfred.

Although nominally it was a celebration of Alfred's promotion to major general, the change in his rank was insignificant. What was really important was that Alfred had been promoted to Sequence 4 'Lawmage' of the 'Arbitrator' pathway!
This also means that the Hall family now has a demigod of their own.

It also means that the Hall family has truly become the "top" of the Loen Kingdom!
After all, even in the entire Kingdom of Loen, the number of demigods is quite limited, and they are almost the strongest in this world. Angels stronger than demigods only exist in the royal families of various countries, the Church of the Seven Gods, and those powerful secret organizations.

A demigod can live for at least five hundred years, which means he can at least guarantee the prosperity of the Hall family for the next five hundred years.

And even if Alfred cannot be promoted to Sequence 3 'Chaos Hunter' within these five hundred years, the Beyonder characteristics he leaves behind after his death will be passed on to the Hall family, and they will cultivate another Sequence 4 Demigod for the Hall family, and the cycle will continue forever!

Of course, even if Alfred has become a demigod, it does not mean that the Hall family can be arrogant.

They still need to find their own allies and strengthen their ties with other demigods.

After all, even the demigods standing at the top of Loen have their own small circle.

If you act arrogantly and aloofly and refuse to interact with other demigods, the final result will only be that you will be ostracized and isolated by others.

Audrey stood on the second floor of the living room, leaning on the railing, observing the guests dancing or chatting below from the perspective of an audience.

"You don't seem to like this atmosphere?"

Audrey suddenly heard a steady voice next to her ear, which made her look to the right and immediately recognized the person.

Amyrius Levitt.

The admiral was of average build and did not look very strong, with slightly droopy corners of his mouth, revealing his actual age.

He had no beard and had a stern and serious temperament. His blue eyes seemed to contain a majesty that would not brook rejection or excuses.

He was wearing a dark blue outfit with epaulettes. It was the general uniform he wore when he was the supreme commander of the Central Sonia Sea Navy... There was a red ribbon on his shoulder, connecting to his chest, with medals hanging down...

There were golden nails on his cuffs, which matched the shoulder straps of the same color... The shoulder straps were divided into three parts, from the inside to the outside: a crown inlaid with rubies, a crossed scepter and sword, and four stars dotted with diamonds...

Audrey instinctively observed the admiral from the perspective of a 'spectator' and made a quick analysis based on this.

Amyrius Levitt was born into the Levitt family, his father was the former Earl of Levitt.

The Levitt family has always been on good terms with the Hall family, so Admiral Amyrius was naturally on the invitation list.

On the other hand, the family's experience is very similar to that of the Hall family.

The eldest son of the Hall family is Audrey's brother Hibbert, who is destined to inherit the title of Earl of Hall, and Alfred, the second son, has become a demigod.

The same is true for the Levitt family. The eldest son inherited the title of Earl Levitt, while the second son, Admiral Amyrius, is already a demigod, and his younger brother, Auston Levitt, serves as the governor of Oravi.

Of course, these are all in the past tense.

Amyrius Leavitt lost a political struggle because of his brother, Auston Leavitt. His brother was dismissed from his post as governor, and he was replaced as the supreme commander of the Central Sonia Sea Navy by someone else.

Of course, as a genuine demigod.

Even if he lost his position as the supreme commander of the Central Sonia Sea Navy, he was still an admiral, so he was qualified to wear the admiral's uniform. At the same time, the royal family did not dare to neglect a demigod too much.

So now the admiral has been reinstated and is currently leading the Ministry of Defense.

Nominally, the Central Sudanese naval fleet is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense.

But compared with the Supreme Commander of the Navy who holds real power and controls the entire Central Sonia Fleet, Admiral Amyrius' transfer to the Ministry of National Defense is actually a promotion in name only and a demotion in reality.

But no matter what, he is still an admiral, a true demigod!

The Hall family still extended an invitation even when Amyrius was in a low point, which was a gesture of goodwill. Amyrius himself came to the scene in person, not only to accept the goodwill of the Hall family, but also to form an alliance with Alfred.

After all, this demigod was too young, and he did not get along very well with the other demigods of the Kingdom of Loen.

Audrey put away her thoughts and bowed nervously:
"Good evening, Lord Amyrius." "Well, it's not that I don't like this kind of atmosphere, but..."

Audrey pursed her lips slightly, seeming to find it difficult to speak.

It’s not that she dislikes the atmosphere of dinner parties. On the contrary, she really enjoys such social events - at least that was the case in the past.

And now, the thoughts of the guests at the banquet were as transparent as if to her. She could easily see what was in their hearts, which also caused some subtle changes in her attitude towards these people.

Although she can control her emotions very well and won't let anyone notice her attitude change.

But as a spectator, she is used to being isolated from the crowd and believes deep down that this is not a bad thing.

However, of course, these thoughts cannot be expressed openly to others, not even to parents, as this will only make them worry.

The deliberately embarrassed look she showed now was just part of her disguise.

But at this moment, a slightly teasing voice suddenly sounded in their ears:

"Just because the person you wanted to see didn't come?"

Admiral Amyrius looked at Hibbert who was walking up from behind with some surprise, a teasing smile on his face.

Audrey's cheeks slightly puffed up and blushed, and she glared at Hibbert with some shame and anger, showing the look that an aristocratic girl should have when facing her brother exposing her shortcomings in front of outsiders.

Hibbert shrugged and winked at Amyrius, and the two of them walked towards the stairs together.

As they were going downstairs, Hibbert smiled and said:

"You may not know this, Lord Amyrius, but Audrey is actually waiting for someone."

"And the reason why she looked a little unhappy was because the person she was waiting for didn't come."

"Who are you waiting for?"

Admiral Amyrius asked with a slightly changed expression.

Hibbert shook his glass and said with a smile:

"Ash Black, a Viscount from Wintershire."

"Well, he is also a believer of the goddess, and he was once Audrey's teacher for a period of time. They have a very good relationship."

Hibbert pointed out some details without leaving any trace, and Amyrius immediately understood what the other party wanted to express - Hibbert obviously had some misunderstandings, but Amyrius had no such thoughts at all, so he didn't take it to heart.

The reason why he approached Audrey rashly was because he noticed that the other party's position was a little strange.

Amyrius turned his gaze towards the girl who was leaving the railing and returning to the room, without showing any extra expression.

Alfred is a demigod, so it's not surprising that he's in the same 'position' as himself.

But the 'position' of that girl was indeed somewhat subtle.

There is no doubt that the other party is hiding a huge secret.

This secret may belong to the Hall family, or it may just belong to Audrey herself.

Although Amyrius was somewhat curious, he had no intention of exploring further.

This is very rude and can easily be misunderstood, just like what happened just now.
-
After leaving the banquet hall and returning to her room and closing the door, Audrey asked curiously:

"Susie, what's wrong?"

Susie wagged her tail, opened and closed her mouth several times, shaking the air around her, and said:

"Audrey, someone is looking for you."

"Who?"

Audrey hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly caught a glimpse of smooth black out of the corner of her eye.

She subconsciously looked towards her own velvet bed, where a woman in a black dress was standing beside it.

Audrey asked with some doubt:

"Carla? Are you done with your work?"

"almost."

Kalu stretched, fell on the bed, and said lazily:
"But I came here for other things this time."

"what?"

Audrey asked subconsciously.

Carla smiled and said:
"Help you advance to Sequence 4."

Eh?
Audrey was stunned. Didn't they say that one couldn't advance to Sequence 4 before killing the first Lord of Cinder?
Audrey immediately understood the reason and said in surprise:

"Has anyone defeated the Farran Undead Team?"

"Yes."

Carla nodded slightly and said meaningfully:
"In fact, I never expected that a Sequence 5 Beyonder could kill the Farran Undead Squad. Only a demigod would have a chance."

Audrey couldn't help but feel a little surprised and couldn't help but say:

"Then why is it stipulated that Sequence 4 cannot enter the dream world?"

After reaching Sequence 4, you will no longer be able to enter the dream world.

It is impossible to defeat the Faran Undead Squad without advancing to Sequence 4.

Without defeating the Farran Undead Squad, Sequence 4 cannot enter the dream world.

Doesn’t this become an unsolvable problem?
Carula said meaningfully:

"There are exceptions to everything."

"Since someone has successfully hunted down the first Cinder King, it means that the demigod who hunted down the Farran Undead Squad has obtained his permission. In other words, he has tacitly approved my plan. Do you know what this means?"

Audrey knew that the 'he' that Carla was referring to was Yu Jin, so she shook her head honestly.

She still doesn't know what Carla is trying to do.

The corners of Carla's mouth slightly raised:

"This means that I am the heroine he has chosen. No matter if it's the princess, the night, or knowledge, they are only worthy of being my supporting roles!"

Audrey blinked. Although it sounded reasonable, why was she instinctively skeptical?
