Frillian in the Elden Ring

99

Chapter 99 still has to be the Hardcore Legion.

Fulilian glanced at the Fran Undead Squad and saw that they nodded in sync.

can.

In a sense, as fellow Fire Kings, they are on the path to continue the world together, even at the border. So he welcomes training with his former rivals and training these too young soldiers.

If you want to help my friend, who is both my enemy and my friend, to embark on the journey to meet the Elden Circle, you are still far from what you can do now.

The silver-haired girl, who understood the meaning, raised the Soul Summoning Bell. She hadn't used it for a long time because she preferred to hone her own strength during boss battles.

Relying on external resources is not my style, and this concept brings up a problem:

What are you good for?

We can't just leave the Soul Summoning Bell idle forever, right? We're still collecting ashes, so we shouldn't let the pearls get dusty. And now, Fulilian thinks the battlefield is the best place for them. With that thought, the bell rang, and amidst a crisp sound, the Ash Warrior gradually emerged:

Ashes of the Stray Wolf

【Wandering the ashes of the powerful】

[Grek Soldier's Ashes]

[Soul Jellyfish Ashes]

[The ashes of the Skeleton Militia]

【Headless Knight Lutier】

A total of 14 combat units were ready to go, but she didn't rush them to charge. She raised her staff and released a round of enhancement magic, each of which contained soul enhancement. After a round of superposition, even the weakest wolf ashes became powerful.

At this moment, they are probably not inferior to any powerful troops on the border, and at least they have the ability to fight.

Not only that, as one of the legendary ashes, Lutier has reached heroic combat power, and has a certain influence even on a huge battlefield, not to mention a small stage.

Fulilian pointed from a distance, and the hardened warriors rushed forward.

At the same time, Edgar shouted an order: "The front-line charging troops will disperse, the middle positions will be deployed in columns, and everyone should pay attention to avoid them. You will go from attacking multiple heroic units to witnessing more heroic battles-"

boom!

The headless knight took the lead in wrestling with a Frank warrior, and his big shield took the initiative to meet the big sword, and the gusts of air he created knocked over dozens of people.

The two massive figures engaged in a high-speed exchange of blows, initially employing simple, unadorned blows, each one unleashing a suffocating blast of flame and wind. Then, both sides began to switch tactics.

They used different combat techniques and martial arts, and the whole battle was exquisite.

However, this also meant that the aftermath spread far and wide, causing people and horses to fall wherever it passed, and ordinary flying dragons and mountain monsters avoided it for fear of being accidentally injured.

The remaining ashes also arrived at the front line.

Of course, they are no match for Lutier, so they can only win by numbers. Under the command and special support of Frelian, three to four units will hold back a Fran team member, and the latter will cooperate in fighting against them. Those who are not in position will voluntarily withdraw.

The goal of the drill battle is to test "whether the city can be captured if the enemy's heroes and elite forces are delayed", so there is no need for the Fran Undead Corps to deliberately increase the difficulty.

When the actual battle comes, they will be responsible for fighting against divine creatures, not just enemies in the heroic realm.

rumble--

The encounter between the Legion of Ashes and the Undead Squad of Farran was like a storm, with swords flying everywhere and flames surging.

From a distance, one could only see people being blown away from the center of the explosion.

However, the vanguards of the siege continued to advance with difficulty until they reached the city wall and started a new round of siege. The defenders were also not polite. Besides using non-lethal weapons, their force did not weaken. Both sides gave no ground.

Fighting and making trouble now is really seeking death. After all, there is no mercy in actual combat environment, and it must be cultivated through drills.

Edgar commented: "Your Majesty's Legion of Ashes has been a great help. It's like adding a special unit and a hero, giving the siege troops a chance to breathe. But overall, we haven't achieved suppression, and we'll still lose on the front lines."

"Is there any way?"

"There's no other solution except to increase our troops, and the key is to add strong elite troops. In fact, there's no shortage of grassroots troops anywhere. The strength of the Royal City of Rodel lies in its core troops."

"There's one remaining option: a large-scale magical attack with absolute lethality."

Hearing this, Edgar looked at Fulilian in surprise as a trace of gravity magic flashed in her hand. This was incredible.

Thanks to the title of the strongest demigod, Latan, everyone regards gravity magic as the top battlefield annihilation force in the border area. It can often perform exceptionally well in one-on-many situations. So, Your Majesty has also mastered it?

"If I can tie down a large army and demigods like Gulan Sanx did, I should be able to relieve the pressure on you."

"Yes, the Great Ancient Dragon failed to breach the city walls on his own, but if we are too weak to help, then the siege will be no different from Your Majesty charging in alone."

"Have confidence in yourself, you see—"

Fulilian pointed at the shattered city wall. Suddenly, a huge rock had collapsed a section of it, and someone had broken open the city gate. It looked like the battle drill was drawing to a close. The ladders clinging to the wall had been withdrawn.

If it were an actual battle, Rodel's overly high walls wouldn't give you a chance to climb, so the most you could do is use this trick to hold them back.

Woo!

The loud sound of the horn announced the end of the drill battle. The Ashes Legion and the Fran Undead Squad in the center of the battlefield also stopped fighting. The remaining soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. This would become a daily routine in the future.

Facts have proved that the basic logic of this combat plan is correct, the only problem is the scale.

But the thing that the royal city of Rodel lacks the least is scale. It has a large number of powerful units and countless enhanced weapons. How can it make up for the gap?

"Your Majesty, some soldiers are requesting a very special way to become stronger."

Edgar hesitated for a moment before continuing, "For example, limb reattachment technology, would you mind?"

"Even the sword skeleton in my hand is a product of limb grafting. I have no right to judge Nimgerfu's long-standing technology and customs... Although it's a bit strange, I have no reason to interfere with others' ways of becoming stronger. Just don't attack others like Greg did."

"They intend to graft the limbs of powerful creatures."

"Building an army of limb grafters?"

Fulilian, with a troubled expression, murmured, "It has regional characteristics."

In fact, she has already accepted the loyalty of some of the limb-transplanted nobles, who can be regarded as a special type of soldier. After a little training, they may become elite troops.

I really have no right to judge this technology.

"As long as they don't cause any trouble for their companions, I have no objection. Furthermore, as they become stronger, they'll gain even more rune enhancements. But remember to tell Edgar that if you encounter any side effects, come to me. They're not difficult to treat. Therefore, we must set a limit on limb grafting: no more than one-third of their body weight. Otherwise, I can't save them."

"As ordered."

Seeing Edgar's expression as if he was promoting the technology of creating holy objects, Fulilian couldn't help but think that the ways to become stronger in the borderland were more unique than each other.

Speaking of powerful creatures, there seem to be quite a few in Lake Lienia.

A week has passed since returning to Stonewell City.

During this period, Fulilian was very busy. Looking back at the long history of the elves, it was rare for them to have such a tight schedule. She basically visited all the confidential locations.

In the last game, she only made the most basic arrangements to occupy the capital, and this time she knew how it would work.

Prosperity.

With the active presence of King Nimgefu, more and more people came here, even some famous masters. It was said that they were passing through on their way to the Galid Battle Festival and stopped by to rest.

Out of curiosity, she also met with these people, not in the form of an audience, but chatting in a pub.

The silver-haired girl sat in the main seat, with many famous and powerful people on both sides.

Among them are Big Horn, the Old Man, Warrior Hu and others. The appearance of Alexander the Iron Fist is particularly eye-opening. It turns out that there is a special "Hu culture" circulating in the border area. I don't know where it originated, but it must be a very interesting story...

However, we didn't talk in detail since we weren't familiar with each other.

They should become more familiar with each other after becoming a comrade with Gaileed in the near future. Fulilian didn't waste any time and went to a place as soon as possible:

The divine tower.

The incident was uneventful, and Greg's Great Rune was easily activated. However, the integration of Soul Magic Blessing and the Ring Fragments became a new challenge, and for the sake of caution, large-scale enhancements had to be postponed until further research was needed.

In any case, Fulilian has mastered the activation of the Great Rune and can use it to bend the arc.

In the past, she only used it as a medium, and she had truly experienced the Great Rune's effect of "all attribute enhancement", which was indeed extraordinary. No wonder Greg was able to burst out so strongly on the spot. Unfortunately, the user's foundation was more important, so he lost in the end.

The active effect is not available for the time being.

Her hiding and not using ashes to fight against bosses are based on the same principle.

What was learned at the border was ultimately put to the test in reality. It was obvious that the Ashes Legion, which was related to the rules, had been activated by Great Rune and had been proven in reality to be unusable.

Therefore, Fulilian must not rely on them to pollute her fighting style, otherwise she would be in a hurry to fight against the demons and people would die.

Whatever.

Here she only needs to slowly study the ability of the blessing of the magic circle and then give it to her subordinates. Everyone is actually very happy that the king can use it to activate the Great Rune, and they are proud of it. Perhaps it can bring a turning point.

In addition to research, the tasks previously instructed are also being carried out.

The elite military training program proposed by Edgar officially began.

The only designated instructors were the Farran Undead Squad. After all, they were the most experienced and each one was a top-notch selection, so training new recruits was no problem. As for the sparring partners, they were of course the Black Blade Assassin and the ancient hero Samir. After all, the city didn't have much combat power.

The Dragon Eaters and the Limb-Receiving Nobles have expanded a part of their group, and with Fulilian's approval, they can accommodate different powers as long as they are willing.

Of course, there was an immune rejection reaction during the period, but fortunately, the transformation was carried out safely with treatment.

She's pretty good with treatment.

Some abandoned this path, content to remain ordinary soldiers for the rest of their lives. Others stood out, adapting to the Dragon's Heart, and the art of limb reattachment flourished rapidly.

Edgar was very satisfied with this trend and felt that he had found the right path, so he began to select the elite of the army to form an additional powerful force to serve as vanguards in the future.

In border areas, quality of soldiers is more important than quantity, and the military nobles are particularly aware of this.

The Royal City is almost invincible due to the quality of its soldiers, weapons and equipment, and the natural terrain. It would be troublesome to use it as an imaginary enemy.

But they are not without their merits.

The South can currently be called "the most dynamic region in the world" and has recovered earlier than any other region. The scale effect generated in the future is unimaginable. The astonishing number of working zombies as auxiliary troops can save a lot of trouble and allow us to concentrate our energy on frontal combat.

Also.

The scattered manor nobles, led by Hyde, restarted infrastructure construction and comprehensively renovated and prepared the roads, outposts, fortresses and warehouses throughout Nimgfu, stimulating the flow of resources in the region to the greatest extent.

His unique vision led him to choose to fully integrate existing resources and improve efficiency first.

The purpose of sending troops to build the Fire Wall at the border of Gaileyd is also to maintain order. Since the South is currently particularly concerned about stability and tranquility, it is better to maintain it.

As long as you manage your business well enough, you will attract people sooner or later.

In fact, a considerable number of Faded Ones have been working closely with the army of Stonewell City.

For example, Roger, Nepheli and others who had previous interactions with him joined the southern army in fighting against bandits and exterminating monsters.

Hyde was very satisfied with the current situation. It turned out that choosing to invest in Fulilian was the most profitable gamble in his life. No, it would be remembered in the history of the nobility.

Magic Workshop.

Ever since the research on the blessing power of Great Luen began, this place has become the busiest area in the entire Stonewell City. Magic storms often blow up and pillars of light shoot into the sky. Except when His Majesty is handling government affairs, this place never stops, and he is tirelessly studying.

It was well known that once His Majesty set his sights on a research topic, he would work tirelessly until results emerged. Fortunately, all went smoothly, and on the seventh day, the blessing was announced as complete.

A new high-level meeting begins.

Fulilian spoke frankly: "The good news is that blessing does work. The bad news is that my level as a Stargazer is not high enough. I need more runes and become stronger so that I can enhance the corresponding powerful troops. But I can't find them in Nimgefu or the Weeping Peninsula."

"Pass the order on. Completely wipe out the magic academy stronghold in the western part of the peninsula. Increase vigilance in the Lienia region of the Lake."

"There's no need to wait any longer. I will set out to pass the cliffs guarded by Stonewell City."

Her words shocked everyone, and she finally came.

Se Lian couldn't help but ask: "Do you want me to go with you? After all, I have some understanding of the academy."

"No, first we have to make sure we can lift the seal on the academy. It's not too late for you to leave once I have the news. It's more efficient and safer for me to explore the new area alone."

"Alright."

"You don't need to mobilize too many troops. Just take a defensive stance against the academy."

Fulilian warned, "Even if we want to attack, it's better to go alone in that kind of terrain."

The nobles all agreed, believing that this day would come sooner or later anyway.

Your Majesty is no flawed fragmented king, a ruler who has always ruled a single region. He is a faded being, restored to repair the Circle. We have spent too long in our weakest region. It is time to head north and explore the central and southern borderlands, destined to become a formidable barrier against the forces of the Yatan Plateau.

"You must be careful, Lake Lienia is much larger and more complex."

Hyde asked with concern.

"Well, I'll be leaving in three days. In the meantime, you can start mobilizing troops."
