Chapter 659: A New Era at the Border (Part 2)

——Gmir Volcano Residence.

Since the defeat of Lacard, Bernal and others left, the Volcano Residence has basically existed in name only.

Except for the nominal hostess Tanis, who still stubbornly believed that her king Lacard was still alive in the depths of the volcano and would return again one day in the future, other well-known and unknown rebels have dispersed one after another.

In the end, except for the Crucible Knight, only the maid Laya and the bald Patch remained with Tanis.

But they were almost unable to stay.

Because the new king's army was approaching the Volcano Residence.

Previously, the summons from the Royal City were basically issued to various regions in the border area at the same time. Those sensible lords and city lords had already gone to Rodel to meet the new king one after another. Even if there were diehards, they usually pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not respond, such as the veteran in the city of Sol on the snowy mountain.

Only Tanis, who was a little crazy because she hadn't seen Lakkad recently, drove the messenger from the royal city out directly when she saw him. If Laya and Patch hadn't stopped her, she would have even wanted to get rid of the messenger.

She also said that Lakkad would return soon, and the new king would only be defeated by him, and their dynasty would be overthrown.

Then... then there was nothing to say. The messenger returned to the royal city and reported truthfully, and the royal city was also very pragmatic. After only three days, the army had arrived downstairs of Tanis's house.

Other areas are fine. Although the Gemir volcano can only be regarded as a corner of the map, it is close to the Yatan Plateau and can almost be said to be right next to the royal city. In such an area, the new dynasty would definitely not let it live in a corner and be independent.

——The above is the reason Li You gave when he persuaded others before.

Of course, he did not deny that he was indeed influenced by the subconscious idea of ​​great unification.

In the end, the Volcano Residence became the target of the new dynasty to kill the chicken to scare the monkey. Under the leadership of the newly appointed general, the Holy Tree Knight Loretta, the mixed forces of the royal city soldiers and the Night Demons fought all the way to the depths of the Gmir Volcano.

The terrain of the Gmir Volcano is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but with the addition of the Night Demon team, the mountainous area has become an advantageous area for the coalition forces. On the other hand, after the death of Lakkad, the snake people who inherited his or the blood of the great snake all lost control and now became hunters who do whatever they want in the volcano.

In such a comparison, it is not surprising that the coalition forces have been unstoppable all the way.

At this moment in the volcano, in the audience hall of Lakkad, Laya is persuading Tanis to leave.

"Tannis...Mother!" Laya was anxious, "The army of the royal city is approaching the pass, and we have no ability to resist... Please leave with us!"

Tannis just knelt in the middle of the audience hall, next to the huge crack in the ground, not caring about the heat at all, just watching the crimson magma slowly flowing under the crack.

Hearing Laya's words, she didn't even turn her head, just said: "I won't leave...Lord Rakad, my king, I know you are down there, I will always wait for your return..."

Laya was almost crying in anxiety. In fact, after the big change in the volcano mansion, she had vaguely realized her true life experience, but now she didn't care about that, just wanted to persuade Tanis to leave, but Tanis didn't listen to her at all.

Laya looked at Tanis's furnace knight standing next to her, and the knight still didn't say a word, just standing by.

At this moment, a figure came from outside, with a shining bald head, it was Patch

"The army in the Royal City has sent a signal again. If we don't surrender, they will launch a general attack!" He walked quickly and spoke quickly, "Now is the last chance. It will be too late if we don't leave now!"

Laya heard this and looked at Tanis again, but the latter remained unmoved.

Seeing this, Patch's eyes flashed with deep disappointment.

He thought Tanis was very special, based on her unique style and temperament in the past. Tanis, who used to be in charge of the Volcano Mansion and had a sharp style, was the one he valued.

But now Tanis... can only say that he was very disappointed.

And the Royal City coalition forces were about to break in. If he didn't leave now, he would not be able to leave either.

So Patch sighed: "Okay, you know what's going on... Sorry, I'll leave first."

Laya couldn't help but look at him: "Lord Patch, you..."

Patch scratched his bald head hard: "Don't look at me like that! Look at her, what has she become since Lakkad died... after losing! This is really not my problem, I don't plan to lose my life."

Tannis finally turned around and looked at the two of them. She looked at Laya carefully, then at Patch, and said, "I know...you should leave too. But if you are willing, I have one last thing to ask of you."

"...Tell me."

Tannis waved to Laya: "Come here, child."

Laya leaned over without knowing why, and Tanis gently held her in her arms: "You are a good child, and I, as a mother, feel ashamed...so you don't have to stay here with me."

Laya: "!?"

Just as she was about to raise her head, a large group of lavender mist emerged from Tanis's sleeves, covering her. Laya felt her eyelids sore, her head sank, and she lost consciousness and fell asleep.

Patch looked at Tanis: "What are you doing...?"

Tanis said: "I won't leave. No matter what the situation is with Lord Lakkad, I won't leave here... So, I'll leave Laya in your care."

"I have a bottle of secret forgetfulness medicine here. If Laya can't accept it after she wakes up, you can choose to feed her the medicine... Then let her forget everything and start a new life."

She looked at Patch again: "I have used you many times in the past, but I can only ask you for this last thing."

Patch looked at her and sighed for a long time: "...Okay, I will find a place for her. You... take care of yourself."

As he said, he walked forward, picked up Laya without mercy, carried her on his shoulders, took a last look at Tanis, and walked out of the audience hall.

And Tanis watched him take Laya away, stunned for a moment, then turned around and continued to face the lava under the crack, waiting like a statue.

——Half a day later, Loretta, who still did not wait for the Volcano Mansion to surrender, unceremoniously commanded the coalition forces of the Royal City to launch an attack. The coalition forces continued to crush the enemy all the way and entered the deepest part of the Volcano Mansion.

Finally, when Loretta led the team into the audience hall, the only thing standing in front of them was the Crucible Knight.

When the team surrounded and killed the Crucible Knight, Tanis just watched quietly, and when her knight fell, she stood up without hesitation and jumped into the magma of the crack, and even Loretta could not stop her.

On this day, the Volcano Mansion, the former gathering place of the rebels, was declared destroyed, and the Gmir Volcano was also brought under the direct management of Rodel.

…

Giant Snow Mountain.

The snow mountain area, which had been isolated from the world in the past and almost no outsiders had set foot on it, now welcomed a large number of uninvited guests.

They were tall and fat, with outstanding appearances, holding fierce weapons such as swords and axes. They were the sons of evil omens who were transferred here from the underground of the Royal City.

Their leader was none other than the "Blessed King" Monggot.

At that time, in front of the throne of Elden, Millicent told Gefulei and Monggot about the new era she hoped to see. Although her description was a bit vague, after listening to her and Li You's description of the laws and dynasties of the new era, Gefulei was greatly moved.

Gefulei certainly knew Marica's plan. He originally wanted to meet the Elden Ring again and become the king again, which was actually a backup in the plan.

If no suitable gods and kings appeared, then Gefulei, who returned from the border, would become the king again. This would at least ensure that everything Marica had arranged with great effort would not be in vain.

After listening to Millicent's words, Gefulei realized that if their idea could really be realized, it would be an era that would be more in line with Marica's expectations than if he became the king.

So, Gefulei took the initiative to give in.

As for Monggot, he was a complicated person. Although he is a demigod, he is the son of evil omen and was once considered a curse and imprisoned. But in the end, he stood up, concealed his identity, and protected the royal city.

The reason he did all this was not because he had been loved and wanted to give back, but because he simply wanted to love.

So it is ironic that the son of evil omen, who was ostracized by everyone, is the one who truly has great love.

And because of this, he can understand the ideas of Millicent and Li You even better than Ge Fulei. Although he did not support all of their ideas, when Ge Fulei agreed with them, Mungert did not choose to speak out against it, and the two sides avoided fighting.

Then, after the order of the new era was established, Li You found Mungert and proposed an exchange condition to him.

That is, he will lead the sons of evil omen in the underground of the royal city to settle in the snow mountain, and at the same time take over the work of the former flame monitors to watch over the giant flame on the top of the snow mountain for the new dynasty.

Although the new dynasty no longer uses the golden tree as a totem, its existence itself is still very important, and it is still necessary to monitor the ash-extinguishing flame.

In this way, the sons of evil omen can also have their own soil for survival. Even though the environment is relatively bad, they are already physically strong, not to mention that compared with the despair of being imprisoned underground in the past, this is already a very good condition.

Finally, even if Millicent doesn't care, there are still many people in the border area who are hostile to evil omen, and such a concept cannot be easily changed. So even if you want to release the sons of evil omen, it is better to keep them at a certain natural distance from the general public, which is good for both parties.

This plan kills three birds with one stone, and this is not even counting the benefit of freeing up the warehouse under the royal city. Mungert is a smart man. After a simple consideration, he immediately agreed.

Now, his identity is neither the "Blessing King", nor the "Evil Omen King" or the "Evil Omen Demon", but the lord of the new dynasty in the snowy mountains.

Mungert, who led a large group of sons of evil omen to the snowy mountains, looked at the Watcher Fortress in front of the snowy road and sighed deeply.

"This is really... a good idea!"

Then, he raised the curse sword in his hand.

"...Go ahead, drive out those fire-training monks. This land will be our territory from now on!"

The sons of evil omen didn't have high intelligence, but they could still understand simple commands and words. At this time, they all raised their weapons and rushed out with a hum!

"Woo——"

...

At the same time, the "Ceremony Town" of the Holy Snow Plain, Otina.

A large number of Platinum Sons, the same people as Letina, migrated here through the portal, and this will be their territory in the future.

Just like sending the Sons of Evil Omen to the snowy mountains, the Platinum Sons may need a relatively independent piece of land to settle down. It is easier to solve this problem for them, because many Platinum Sons have come to the Holy Snow Plain before, and now the new king has officially handed over this land to them for management.

And their lord is Gaius, the old Platinum Son, the general and old friend of Messermo. Of course, Gaius is still guarding the Gate of God with Messermo.

Kara did not kill Gaius when she fought him, and after the old general recovered from his injury, he has been stationed in front of the Gate of God with Messermo and has no intention of leaving.

He is the lord of this place in the snowy plain, but he is more of a figurehead. The actual manager will be another Platinum Son, Loretta.

...Yes, that's right. Loretta is leading troops in the volcano now, so the two lords of the sons of platinum are not at home.

No mistakes, just go to the 6-9 book bar!

But don't worry, the Holy Snowfield is almost equivalent to the gate of the Holy Tree, and it is also closely related to the Holy Tree Town Abrefil. The current Holy Tree is naturally controlled by no one else, but Saint Torina.

——The bottom of the Holy Tree.

Torina, who took over everything left by Michaela and took over the city, naturally expressed her loyalty to the new dynasty at the first time.

Now, according to Li You's suggestion, she is mobilizing manpower to transform the Holy Tree Town.

The Holy Tree in the past was ugly, and was affected by Marlene's scarlet corruption. Although it looked like a mixture of various races and a happy life on the surface, it was actually riddled with holes inside, and it was all thanks to Michaela's power to maintain it.

Tolina originally wanted to give up the Holy Tree, but Li You thought that she might as well try to build Abrefil into a paradise that can tolerate differences.

This is of course extremely difficult, but Li You feels that Michaela's idea of ​​coexistence among all races in the past was not wrong, but the method was completely wrong. But that was the natural limitation brought by his being a child demigod, which made him think and solve problems like a child.

There are hatreds between people, and will there be wars? Then I can charm everyone and make them forget the hatred, can't I solve the problem?

With this idea, Michaela went all the way to the dark, and finally died under Li You's knife.

Tolina represents Michaela's "love". Now, she may choose a different way to try to truly use love to tolerate the persecuted people who have fled here.

The law of Rani has been realized, and the scarlet corruption at the root of the Holy Tree has lost its dependence on the power of the law, so it can be completely cleaned up. Tolina has been busy with these recently-with some soldiers and residents who agree with her.

When the Holy Tree and the Scarlet Corruption are purified, Abrefil will open the gate to welcome those who are willing to come to this city.

At the bottom of the Holy Tree, Tolina, who was personally working with the soldiers, residents, and night demons to remove the Scarlet Corruption with fire, gently wiped the dirt on her hands and took a breath.

Looking at the Scarlet Corruption that was quickly dried and peeled off, and the land that gradually revealed its original appearance, Tolina smiled: "It turns out that such a future is really possible."

She looked far to the south again: "... In that land, you must also work hard."

...

Galide Plain.

This land, which was completely eroded by the Scarlet Corruption, even more serious than the bottom of the Holy Tree, is now full of fire.

On the vast but twisted red plain, countless figures came and went, including the soldiers of the Royal City, the Knights of the Royal Corruption, the Night Demons, and even the Red Lion Soldiers. These people actually lived in harmony and intertwined, working for a common goal.

There is no doubt that what they are doing is the same as the Holy Tree, that is, using fire to expel the scarlet corruption that has lost the support of the power of law.

Now that the power of the outer gods has been excluded from the border, the scarlet corruption itself is still terrifying, but it has lost its endless and endless characteristics. This is the possibility of being completely expelled, and the land of Galid finally has hope of recovery.

In the center of the Galid wilderness, the battlefield where Marenia and Latan fought was also the place where the scarlet corruption was the most concentrated. In the center of the swamp, Millicent was standing in the corruption pool.

"Boom--!!"

The flames rose, she held the knife given by Li You, stabbed it heavily into the scarlet corruption swamp, and released the flames at the same time, imitating Li You's domain to make it spread.

Burned by this flame, even the thickest scarlet corruption swamp will quickly dry up and become a substance similar to dry moss, and the people around her will step forward at this time to clean up and transport the corruption residues away.

Millicent's job seems simple, but she has to release it countless times a day, which consumes a lot of magic and spirit. She is the most tired one.

The new king of the borderland is just like an ordinary night demon engineer, doing the hardest and most arduous work.

If no one reminds, I'm afraid no one would have thought that this busiest young girl among all people would be the new King of Elden.

Millyson never shouted, because she knew that everything here was her responsibility in the past. Even if she was reborn now, it does not mean that she clears the boundaries with the past sin. What she wants to do is not to decorate the peace, as if nothing happens, but to make up for the damage caused by herself.

When she took the Cavaliers, Saint Tree Soldiers, King City Soldiers, and Night Demons to Galid, the Red Lion Army, the remaining Red Lion, also showed her hostility without concealing her, and even almost took the initiative to attack.

However, Milson did not order himself to fight back several times more than the opposite side, but only maintained defense and did not conflict with the Red Lion Army.

They set up a village and advanced steadily. While cleaning up the mutant creatures and corrupt family members on this land, they continued to expel everything left over by scarlet corruption.

After watching them hard for several days, even if they were the remnants of the Red Lion Army, they moved. In the end, under the leadership of the old city owner Jie Lian, the remaining Red Lion Army also joined the battle to expel corruption.

The resentment between the two sides may not be alleviated, but before the same goal, they chose to cooperate. This will be a very long battle, but one day will win.

Milson believes that it was not until that day that she was eligible to truly be self -herself with the new King of Alden.

After the fire burned a large amount of corruption, Milson's magic was exhausted for a while, and had to choose to rest for a while. The soldiers who followed her also resigned, and only the night demons were still working in the moonlight.

Looking at the busy night demons, Milson couldn't help but sigh: "... it really owes him too much people."

Today, in addition to her right hand, the other part of her body has been completely recovered, and her body is the power of corrupt goddess, because she has been completely expelled with the help of Ni Ni -she has finally passed without having to be eroded by scarlet corruption day and night. Life.

For granted, now she can give everything to her subordinates, enjoy a little bit, relax, but she just does not hesitate to come to Galid in person and fight on the front line of evading corruption.

When lamenting, a voice sounded in Millyn's mind: "The sky is about to light up, and the ordinary night magic is temporarily transferred to various caves. You remember to let the soldiers prepare for the transfer task."

This is Eji's voice. Through a spiritual link, she was talking to Millysen in the distance in the distance.

Milson responded: "I know."

"By the way, Li You said, when he expelled corruption, you can use the ashes of the golden tree to rejuvenate this land ... Is this true?"

After Aiji was delayed for a moment, I replied, "Although he said it was only theory before, I felt that the feasibility was high. Ordinary plant ash is also valuable fertilizer. If it was replaced with the ashes of the golden tree, it should really make it really allowed Galid has re -gained new life. "

At the earliest time, Aiji was the daughter of the village chief of Harland City, and she knew these.

It seems that she feels that she has nothing to say, and she added: "And Li You didn't just talk about it. Isn't he experiment with the ashes of the golden tree? If it is really useful, there should be good news to spread it back soon. It's ".

Milson thought of this, and relieved a lot: "Indeed, he is not an empty and vernacular person. I will hold expectations waiting for the news."

After she responded, she turned her head subconsciously and looked at the north of the swamp, the area of ​​the Tomb of Gui Ol, and Li You was there at this time.

"... Although I have owed not to be light, but this kind of thing can only be rely on you. Please, Li You."

—— At the same time, the tomb of Guion.

Li You was sitting on a giant rock, staring at the system panel in front of him.

"... Zhong, Middle, Middle!"

【bite! The draw is complete! .

Li You glanced at it, um, it's all garbage.

"NMD, WSM!"

Behind him, Kara Bengbu lived: "Master, are you not seeing the invisible special magic again? Is it time to do this now?"

Li You turned his head and looked at her, and his face was still unhappy with the hair that hadn't been on his face: "What do you say, I'm not playing!"

Having said that he reached out and took a drawing from the system backpack.

[Mr. Qi's fertilizer formula: Drawing with strange fertilizer formulas, mixing with specific types of raw materials can produce universal fertilizers of different grades. The specific characteristics of the fertilizer will change due to the nature of the raw material itself. .

"I have got what we need."
