Frillian in the Elden Ring

I don't encourage it, but I don't mind it either. What's the point of eating the dragon's heart? Maybe one day she will need the dragon's prayer as well.

Moreover, Fulilian had seen the nameless king who practiced the way of ancient dragons.

Hyde continued, "We will cultivate a large ancient dragon force while ensuring stability. As Your Majesty said, we will initially aim for 20. Although there is still a gap with the Royal City, it is narrowing the gap."

"continue."

The silver-haired girl glanced at Jie Lian.

The city lord poked his companion sitting next to him in a very low-key manner and said, "Let General Edgar speak."

"Your Majesty, the purification efficiency is incredibly fast, beyond our expectations. The Dragon Tomb has been basically cleared. The flower field wetland, which was previously the worst affected, has also begun to receive normal rain. It has now become a true Melina Lake. The victims of the Ionian War have finally been buried among the flowers..."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh that a piece of history had disappeared.

In time, people will gradually forget the war between the Zun Corruption Knights and the Red Lion Army, and will instead be reminded of the myth of the earth-shattering battle between the Soul Fire King Fulilian and the Scarlet Corruption God. The ruins will stand for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Those who participated in it are still frightened, but now they hear that the pure land they created is thriving, and of course they are smiling.

good thing.

Gallid is no longer a drag, but he is still a little short of a reliable rear base.

"What about corrupt dependents?"

Fulilian asked: "Before Millicent set out on her journey again, I asked her to tell you the news about Gwei. Did you catch him?"

Edgar shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm incompetent and haven't found any clues."

However, he still submitted the information during the investigation, including the activities of the corrupt followers. They seemed to be evacuating on their own initiative. Now, Gallid is no longer a paradise for monsters.

If you can't afford to offend, just run away.

Ge Wei and his group chose to follow their hearts.

"It doesn't matter. They're nothing anyway. The key is where they went. How could such a big Galid not have any trace?"

"Your Majesty, this is strange. According to the direction the corrupt followers retreated to the north, could it be that they passed through Nimgefu? That's not the right route. It's more like they were guided by the Outer Gods to find a place and disappear into thin air..."

"So that's how it is. They didn't disappear. They probably went to the Shadow Land."

"what?"

Frillian explained the information from Latan to everyone, but she could only repeat it briefly, after all, she didn't know much.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the meeting looked at each other in shock. They could see the shock on each other's faces. Even their worldview had to be reshaped. There actually existed a land larger than the one in the south?

And it has been hidden by Goddess Malika all along.

As we all know, this deity has been ruthless in conquering the south, slaughtering giants, forming alliances with academies, and imprisoning evil omens. She practices tyranny as the main method and kingly way as the secondary method. What level of things does she want to hide?

Even those who are considered senior officials have just discovered that they are still students when it comes to the border area.

Shadowlands are key.

No wonder His Majesty said that he would investigate everything before seeking to be king. The royal city is too complicated.

However, Fulilian added regretfully, "It's a pity that we don't have any clues right now. How to reach the Shadow Land? We still don't know."

200

Chapter 200: The History Eater.

"The only clue is in the underground world."

"As long as we search the entire area, we'll definitely find clues. This is also our long-term plan."

Fulilian would not let go of the treasure in the new map. She had been interested in the Eternal Dynasty a long time ago. After all, the town of Selia and the Magic Academy were related to it and had a deep connection with it.

Did the Knox civilization perish? Probably, physically speaking.

But the heritage remains.

After hearing the silver-haired girl's decisive judgment, everyone felt relieved. As long as they didn't turn a blind eye to the shadows, otherwise they would have to keep the enemies lurking in the dark and lose sleep at night.

"This is not the focus of this meeting. Even if we need to explore in the future, I will lead the charge. You should manage the armies in various locations and prepare."

Flillian has always loved travel adventures, not to mention the secrets of the Borderlands' past hidden there.

"Could you possibly use your force against the underworld?"

Edgar asked cautiously.

"Correct."

"—Because the Blood Dynasty is underground."

At least Monger, who has gathered a large number of troops to guard his lair, deserves a large-scale crusade. He must also be hiding a large number of Sons of Platinum and a legion of cursed blood monsters.

During the last battle of Galid, Fulilian fought twice, and neither was considered strong. But after all, she was a clone, and her original body must be superior, probably reaching the level of a top demigod. As a shard king, she also possessed the power of the magic circle fragments, so she should not be underestimated.

There have also been rumors that there are foreign divine powers behind the Blood Dynasty.

What if Monger, facing a losing streak, decided to relentlessly fuse the power of an Outer God? The battle would be even more terrifying. Even Fulilian needed to be prepared; she couldn't always attack alone.

To put it another way, at least the confirmed intelligence is that the Blood Dynasty has a huge army and wants to fight as a local lord.

"As ordered."

Edgar added: "The Confederate Army is relatively close and will be mainly stationed in Galid."

"As soon as possible, I presume Monger is just below Gallid."

Not to be outdone, Mugram also challenged for battle: "Your Majesty, the defenses of the Yatan Plateau are now further consolidated. With the support of the Fran Undead Squadron, we in Lienia are fully capable of sending an army to join the expedition. Since we are facing the forces of a Fragment King who has been hiding his power for many years, we should increase our investment as much as possible and leave no opportunity for exploitation."

"Okay, you guys get ready first."

"However, we are quite far away, so it will probably take some time. If Your Majesty is anxious, we will mobilize a small group of elite troops..."

"It doesn't matter. I have to prioritize completing another plan on my end."

Don't forget that the last time Frielian and Rani's high-profile collaboration provoked the targeting of Two Fingers, the mastermind behind the scenes is holding on to it and continues to send his minions to harass us. We must eliminate them as soon as possible.

Let’s not talk about her identity as a god and the laws of the stars, because she doesn’t know how to repair the magic ring in the future.

The Moon Princess's claim is what matters.

The stability of the Kalia royal family depended on Rani's safety, a point that was readily understood. In other words, attacking her was a direct destabilization of the southern power.

You deserve to die.

Fulilian was very interested in how powerful the two fingers of the so-called spokesperson of the Supreme Will were.

So, we should follow Lani's plan and hunt Two Fingers first, clearing away any remaining worries and freeing up a demigod magician's combat power. Why not? We can consider the Blood Dynasty strategy later.

But this plan cannot be told to outsiders, so let's keep it secret for now.

The topic of the underworld quickly passed. Then Edgar poked Jeremiah, indicating that he had to say something. Only then did the old man cough and answer:

"Your Majesty, the Red Lion Army has been reorganized."

"What about it?"

"The number has been reduced to 7% of the original number. Half of those who left chose to be independent, or became mercenaries, or instructors... so they still stayed in the military business. The other half engaged in production work in the south, basically leaving the army."

Jie Lian said with emotion: "Everyone is tired. It is really necessary to take a good rest after taking off the heavy burden."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. The streamlined Red Lion Army is sufficient to patrol the area and can cooperate with the main force of the Southern Army to defend the area."

"Is everyone satisfied with their new life? After all, there have been huge changes."

"The changes are great, but they're all for the better. We used to fight the corrupted creatures day and night, dying or being assimilated. It was like a never-ending nightmare. Now it's all over. So everyone is more grateful, cherishing their current lives, and thanking Your Majesty."

After hearing this, Fulilian nodded easily.

Well, if their power expanded further, it would be embarrassing, and they would have to spend a lot of time to split and reorganize it. As a king, an army that was not directly under his control and was completely outside the system was difficult to deal with.

After all, the Lienia army joined the battle at the Church of Bonding midway to show their loyalty, and with the relationship with Lani to maintain it, they can still be trusted.

All Red Lion soldiers are known to be loyal to Latarn.

She may not care, because no matter what your background is, you are not as good as me in fighting.

The subordinates care.

The leadership team, which deeply represents the interests of Nimgefu and Lienia, is concerned about the balance of power. Instead of building the Red Lion Army, it is better to absorb the essence and split the original forces, lower their functional levels, and defend key cities while patrolling.

The opportunity to gain military merit and train soldiers should be given to others, especially the soldiers in the Nimgefu area. Hyde is probably the one who cares about this the most.

Lienia uses the ruins mine to train troops, how can we fall behind?

Fulilian smiled and said, "Alright then, let's proceed according to City Lord Jerlian's plan. Let's give the opportunity to defeat the enemy and gain Rune reinforcements to the two main forces. A good division of labor will be the only way to be efficient. From now on, the Weeping Peninsula Front will be responsible for the Galid region, and the Nimgefu Army will be evacuated on a rotating basis for rest and recuperation."

"...As you command, Your Majesty."

In a sense, the most important decision made at the meeting basically announced the disposal of the former fiefdom of General Shattering Star, and the division of the cake was completed with ease.

There is no unnecessary dispute, everything will be done with just one order from her. This is the authority brought by absolute power.

Jie Lian showed emotion but finally accepted it.

That's it.

Anyway, General Shattering Star's fiefdom has long since ceased to exist in name only. Now that it's been liberated, I might as well move forward with my new mission. At least the burden has been lifted off my shoulders, and life is much easier than before. I might as well consider it retirement.

"From now on, Red Lion City will hang your flags and portraits and build your statues."

"That's not necessarily true... Never mind. When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

The change of flags and banners was completed as early as the Battle of the Four Gods, but it was only digested by Fulilian today, giving both sides enough time to get used to each other.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

"Praise the great Soul Cinder King."

Everyone present hurriedly offered greetings and congratulations, and the silver-haired girl, the protagonist, responded with a businesslike smile.

The size of her territory didn't really matter to her; the key was that her subordinates had new opportunities for rewards. The series of promotion resources freed up by Gallid would last for thousands of years, and the incentive for the entire southern faction was comparable to a victory in a major war.

Win-win.

Edgar murmured, "As a Storm Knight, I once witnessed the conquest of Nimgerfu and the beginning of the Golden Dynasty's rule..."

"Now, the feudal system of Wang Fu Ladagang has collapsed. Times have really changed."

His sentiments reflected those of most people. At this moment, a heavy weight of history passed by, and under Fulilian's leadership, the era unfolded a new dawn. The future was bright, and everyone firmly believed in it.

The happiest person was Hyde, who almost laughed out loud.

Jie Lian did not say anything more, as he was already very satisfied with the current situation. In fact, he was in a state of retirement, unless one day he was needed to lead the troops in another major war.

Selian, Tops and others from the first department of the academy were not interested in government affairs. At most, they made some technical reports, which only Fulilian could understand.

The second half of the meeting.

The discussion focused on further details, such as staffing, financial revenue and expenditure, production and construction, which were left to professional technical bureaucrats, while Fulilian only needed to listen and understand, and get a general idea.

If Melina hadn't reminded her, "Just treat it as reciting magical knowledge and write it down," she would have left long ago.

All in all, the meeting was completed smoothly.

It is clear what changes have taken place in her sphere of influence during her sleep.

After some communication, the management of the three fiefdoms coordinated their work. The territories that had recovered and even prospered would form a whole and work together to bring the resource level to a higher level.

"Meeting dismissed."

At the end, Fulilian finally waved her hand and ordered them to leave as if she was liberated. This kind of complicated work is enough to be done once or twice occasionally.

Before leaving, Mugram warned: "Your Majesty, it is said that the reason why the Tranquility Church has been deserted is because those who tried to disturb it died. Please be careful."

"So I'll go to the Hall of the Round Table to get my equipment."

After standing up from the main seat, the silver-haired girl strode towards the teleportation point.

Everyone was accustomed to Fulilian's decisiveness and knew she was probably securing some long-term commissions for the Round Table. Even though her forces were now well-equipped with artisans and spiritualists, she still chose the Round Table.

Perhaps the style of the Faded Ones is more in line with His Majesty's relaxed attitude, and he feels that this is what true adventurers are like.

Great blessed space.

In the past, there were always quite a few idle Faded Ones whenever they came here, but now it is a bit deserted, probably because Stonewell's guild has taken on a considerable number of commission functions. In any case, according to Hyde's report, it is getting more and more lively.

Most of them were busy with commissions, mutually beneficial exchanges with the Southern Army.

Prayer Colin greeted him and asked, "Lady Fulilian, could you help me find out about the Master of the Golden Mask? Where is he?"
