Frillian in the Elden Ring

Fulilian pulled the reins to slow down the spirit horse. The silver-haired girl riding on its back frowned as she observed the corrupt creature, continuously releasing circles of perception magic scans.

"It's difficult. The scarlet corruption has taken too deep a root in this land. It will take more time."

"Don't worry too much. The main target is Big Rune."

Melina behind him comforted him, "Because the crimson corrupted creatures are actually expanding."

"What's the principle?"

"Originally, it symbolized reincarnation, a part of the cycle of life. Corruption to a certain degree would naturally dissolve. But since the destined death has been sealed, it can only continue to decay, thus becoming stronger. Therefore, it is part of the contradiction within the Golden Rule's immortal system."

"The destined death not only causes the Crimson Corruption to expand but also gives rise to the Deathborn... Even if it is indirect, it is troublesome."

"Do you think sealing death is right?"

"I think most people would like to live a little longer. We can't think it's wrong just because of the drawbacks of a certain death. The Eternal Dynasty's deployment is closely linked and it's not easy to adjust."

In fact, from the perspective of immortality, Fulilian thinks it is good for everyone to live a long life.

What she liked about the junction was that it perfectly matched her own concept of time. Moreover, the system created after the seal of destined death had more merits than faults.

After all, there was an age of plenty.

The outbreak of the Fragment War indicates that there are hidden dangers, but it is not the time to deny it completely. Perhaps the "hidden dangers" do not come from the law itself, but there are dark forces behind the scenes.

Therefore, she is more inclined to repair the disasters caused by the sealed environment of destined death.

Melina nodded.

"You're right. The path of the Golden Dynasty, once a period of grace and favor, is viable. Also, Flillian, I have another perspective... although it's a bit instigative and quite dangerous..."

"You want me to kill Black Sword Malicus?"

"Originally, I wanted to discuss this, but you seem to have a strong interest in collecting certain things about your destined death, and that's irreconcilable."

The silver-haired girl gave a sharp conclusion on behalf of the Fire Witch:

"Part of the blame lies with the Maliks machine, which sealed the destined death but did not proactively clean up the corrupted creatures. The Deadborn should research a death-preserving ecosystem that targets only specific targets."

"Not everyone is as talented as you, and that assassin is a mad beast without Queen Malika's command."

"So the destined death must find a new owner."

Fulilian made no secret of her interest in the treasure guarded by the strongest assassin in the border area.

She openly talked about the existence that even some demigods feared, and even pondered the other party's treasures. This was indeed her style, and Melina couldn't help but hold her forehead.

"Anyway, what I'm saying is, if purging corruption doesn't work, there's still the option of seizing the destined death... although that's also difficult."

"Of course, both methods are used together."

"what?"

"I'll need the Fated Death sooner or later. As for the Scarlet Corruption, don't worry. One more Great Rune will allow my magic to better align with the rules of the borderland, unlocking more power. Don't worry, Melina, there are always more solutions than problems."

At the same time, Fulilian opened the resource map module, and sure enough, she found a flashing light in the tunnel ahead.

So she rode at full speed towards Gale Tunnel.

At this point, Melina can only trust her always reliable partner and hope that Gaileyd's trip goes smoothly.

Chapter 144 Warrior Pot Alexander.

Finally there is a underground palace to explore.

In reality, Fulilian felt a little regretful for missing the exploration of the Tomb of the Broken King. She would have to leave it for next time, but the border area was not short of various mazes.

She carefully leaned down and entered the tunnel, first lighting up the blessing, and then checking the advice on the ground.

Very normal.

It simply mentioned hints such as "There are treasures ahead, you must collect them all", "Someone suddenly attacked from behind, it's too dark", "Keep going forward, it can lead all the way to Gaileed", etc.

It looked normal, so she went in without worry.

Fulilian came not only for the treasure, but also because the tunnel was in an excellent location.

It lies right on the border of the Nimgfu region, and to the south, it leads to the Gale Fortress, forming a vertical defensive line that echoes each other. It was probably built with military purposes in mind, making it a good defensive stronghold and a place for rapid troop transport.

Must be brought under control.

The silver-haired girl took two steps at a time and walked to the depths of the tunnel, where she saw several Latan knights, fully armed.

"...Hello."

She was slightly embarrassed.

In name, the Southern Army and the Red Lion Army are allies in the United Front as they jointly fight against corrupt creatures, but you can't plunder treasures on other people's territory.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a sharp arrow flew towards her face, but Fulilian, who had foresight, dodged it by turning her head slightly.

"No! You don't have the temperament of a normal Red Lion Army. You are brutal and undisciplined. Are you still Latarn's subordinates?"

Even so, she didn't immediately fight back, considering the possibility of a misunderstanding. Of course, as the soldiers before her drew their weapons, this possibility became increasingly unlikely, even leading to suspicions of betrayal against General Shatterstar.

Suddenly, a long knife attacked the silver-haired girl from behind.

However, Fulilian dodged easily and retreated to the center as if she had eyes on the back of her head. The attacker was a blood noble, who was in a double-team with the Red Lion soldiers in front.

"It seems you have betrayed the Red Lion and been bewitched by the Blood Fingers?"

"That's not right."

The Blood Noble summoned the blood-tainted creatures and said, "Who can endure the endless months and years of slaying corrupted creatures? They've either gone mad or are exhausted. Ask them if they still want to? It's better to join my lord and find peace."

He pointed at the Red Lion soldiers, listless and unable to see themselves except for holding their weapons and looking menacing.

There are signs of zombification, corruption infection, blood bewitching...it's a real hodgepodge.

Hopeless.

"Don't use that sympathetic look, it's really insulting."

A soldier said in a hoarse voice: "Come with me."

The enemy blocked all possible routes of retreat.

At this point, Fulilian realized that it was her old rival who secretly planned the ambush in Gale Tunnel and even instigated some of the Red Lion Knights to rebel. She was probably preparing a welcome gift for the Southern Army.

She took the initiative to put away her staff and switched to a sword and shield style, just like a warrior.

"Seek death."

The soldier who had just finished saying this was beheaded. The silver-haired figure was astonishingly fast. Without the ability to identify the magic trajectory, he turned into a gust of wind.

Magic could easily destroy this precious defensive path, so Fulilian chose a conservative approach. But that didn't mean she was weaker. From beginning to end, she was a warrior who combined the strengths of many different arts, and her performance shocked the enemy.

In the blink of an eye, she killed four soldiers and several summoned monsters, and was invincible.

Every time the cold light flashes, it is accompanied by the sound of swords cutting, and the target is as easy as cutting tofu.

The narrow tunnel should have been the best environment for a siege, but under Fulilian's power, it became a gladiatorial arena. Enemies fell one after another without even having time to let out a cry.

"Disperse quickly and avoid direct confrontation."

"All go deeper."

boom!

The Blood Noble waved his sleeves and instantly extinguished all the light sources in the tunnel.

In an instant, it was pitch dark, and I couldn't see anything beyond two meters. Even the sound of breathing disappeared without a trace.

Absolute silence fell, and both sides remained where they were, avoiding any light sources, even sparks. The Red Lion traitors and the Blood Nobles retreated stealthily, leaving behind explosions.

With a loud bang, rocks collapsed and smoke and dust splashed.

However, just when the tunnel was flooded, Fulilian jumped out lightly and saw a wider cave.

There were broken wooden planks under my feet, and the former supporting pillars had collapsed, with a few weapons scattered...

She moved closer, and based on the module's sensing response, it was indeed a weapon:

Cross knife.

"I knew you would come."

The blood nobles ordered the octopus monsters, archers and blood curse magic to bombard the intruders at once. Even a heroic warrior would be in a mess in this situation, which was a perfect opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the intruders.

Unexpectedly, Fulilian's light jump and movement were unharmed, and she even did not forget to put away the cross knife, which was simply a provocation.

Just as they were pursuing her further, she suddenly stopped and raised ripples in her hands to catch the magic power, then she clenched her hands and raised a pale blue sword high.

Kalia's sword of Glory swept across the eight directions.

The sudden counterattack instantly severed the octopus monster in the front, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere. No matter how many tentacles there were, it was meaningless. In an instant, the octopus monsters collapsed and were completely defeated, unable to stop Fulilian's steps.

The Blood Nobles were certainly aware of this, and retreated to the tunnel below with the rebels.

The affected wooden support pillars and platforms collapsed one after another, with wood chips flying and rocks falling to bury them.

They tried to block it.

Little did he know that any movement could not escape the keen magical perception.

hum!

Fulilian switched to her right-hand staff and continuously fired broom stars into the smoke, hitting the target every time, and screams continued to be heard.

The two sides started a chase in the narrow passage, fighting for the enemy. It was almost she who single-handedly forced the enemy to flee in a panic, otherwise they would have become corpses if they stayed.

Suddenly, the silver-haired girl paused and murmured, "Has that earth dragon finally woken up?"

As soon as she entered the tunnel, she discovered that a huge earth dragon was sleeping soundly deep in the tunnel. It was sleeping so well that it had only just opened its eyes.

But it still didn't react violently.

"That's too slow."

Melina explained, "Some earth dragons do become mentally dull, especially in terms of perception. Furthermore, they exhibit the dragon's penchant for deep sleep and rest. They won't be overly active upon waking unless an enemy insists on provoking them."

"So the Earth Dragon troops formed by the Southern Army can only fight head-on."

Upon hearing this, Fulilian decided to always let this type of special troops act with the main army so that they could not do detailed work.

boom!

The blood noble who was running away frantically just a moment ago suddenly flew backwards and fell to the ground with a thud. The rebels around him also stopped. The sudden attack made him stunned, and he stared blankly at the big man in front of him.

"Just a warrior pot."

"—It's Alexander the Iron Fist, remember that."

At the border, the Warrior Pot is literally a pot with arms and legs, which contains the flesh and blood of heroic warriors. It is a member of the Golden Tree Soul Return System.

Many people consider it an honor to have their bodies collected by the Warrior Pot.

The more she learned, the more she realized that compared to the drawbacks of the Eternal Dynasty, the overall order was actually more stable.

"Hello."

"What a coincidence, we actually met the Soul Fire King. These guys are quite courageous."

Alexander blocked the enemy's path.

"I have heard of you, Alexander. Soldiers patrolling Lienia reported you to me."

After taking control of the lake area, she naturally had a comprehensive understanding of all aspects, such as Hu Village and the somewhat famous master Alexander. She could of course protect this kind group.

"It's an honor. By the way, thank you, Your Majesty, for your help to Hu Village..."

"Don't be too proud."

Before he could finish his words, the Blood Noble suddenly unleashed a crimson wave, spreading cursed magic power and further enraging the rebels and monsters. They roared and took the brunt of the attack, aiming at the silver-haired girl at close range.

However, Kalia's Swift Sword was faster, and she chose hand-to-hand combat when her magic range advantage was not obvious.

Fulilian moved among the enemies, and the blue light arc took away one target after another, as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, with no change in the result.

The numerical difference between the two sides cannot be changed by stacking status.

She walked gracefully amidst numerous monsters, swinging her magic sword so tightly that not even a drop of blood was splattered, and her exquisite armor remained spotless.
