The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

The Kingdom of Shadows, the First Fire Sacrifice Site.

"Scathach? Skadi? Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows? BBA?"

John Shepard was calling repeatedly to the woman in purple who was slowly pacing around the campfire.

Since Conna Shepard's consciousness has been expelled by the queen, he should now be called "Thanos". However, all the people in the "Shadow Kingdom" will only call him "Lord Ashes", "Master Wu" and "Thanos". The ashes of the fire."

"..." The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, who was holding a red spear, ignored Thanos's call and kept circling the bonfire at a fixed pace. Only when she heard "BBA" would she raise her eyebrows and suddenly stab her in the air. He fired a shot, then slowly withdrew his attack with a hint of confusion, and continued to circle.

It's like there's no sight of Thanos at all.

"What a mistake." Thanos did not try to call "BBA" a few more times. He just crossed his arms and observed her: "Even if there were 'followers' before, they were also 'shadow followers.' I never expected this. There will be a real one, and he will release the Noble Phantasm at the beginning. To be honest, that 'YOUDIED' really shocked me, but in the end it just kicked Kang Na out."

The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows did not respond at all.

"The troublesome thing is that although I'm not 'dead', I can't re-trigger the battle, so I can't contact the First Fire," Thanos continued to talk to himself: "Although the ash without fire is also immortal, but That's more like 'resurrection', that is to say, someone like me who's 'unkillable' will be ignored?"

The bonfire burned quietly, while the black sun like a hole in the sky still shed its flames.

"I know you can hear me, Great Sage," Thanos continued: "Is 'Looking for Fun' very busy? You don't even have time to give prompts?"

Ding——buzz——

A big red message appeared on the ground next to the bonfire.

[Next, the hidden snow area is very useful. 】

"Hidden Snow Area? Ancient Dragon Summit? No, over there is the black Artoria riding level, and it is not hidden. You can get there just by meditating." Thanos looked at the message: "That is... Wu Master cemetery?"

After thinking for a moment, Thanos casually took out a fragile-looking bone fragment and crushed it directly.

The next moment, his entire body was shrouded in black ashes and disappeared from the spot.

The Queen of Shadow Kingdom seemed to notice something and cast her gaze towards the place where he disappeared, but found nothing.

————

Fire-passing sacrificial site.

"Quack! Give me something round, hard, and shiny!" The crow on the fireproof girl's shoulder shouted loudly when she saw Thanos returning.

"Here." Thanos threw a flame pot casually.

"Quack!" The crow swallowed the flame pot, which was obviously larger than its size, and then the whole bird swelled in size, as if something exploded inside it.

"Quack..." It was stunned for a few seconds. After the "inflated" state disappeared, it opened its mouth and spit out a broken pebble: "Quack! I want more!"

"Let me ask you," Thanos ignored the crow and said directly to the blindfolded fire prevention woman: "If I decide to put out the fire, will you support me?"

"[If the first fire is already close at hand, and you still decide to end the fire, please call me,]" the fire prevention girl replied without any hesitation: "[As a fire prevention girl, I hope that at the last moment before the first fire is extinguished, Watch it too.】"

Obviously, this conversation also triggered the "keyword".

"I see..." Thanos nodded: "In order to speed pass, I didn't go to the 'Fireless Sacrifice' to look for eyeballs at all, but the fire prevention girl still agreed to put out the fire. Then the reason is obvious, the key item for putting out the fire.' The eyes of the first-generation fire-proof girl didn't exist at all. The fire-proof girl knew the consequences of 'spreading fire' and 'extinguishing fire' from the beginning, and she didn't care which result the 'fireless ashes' would choose."

Huh...buzz...a message appeared at the feet of the fireproof girl.

[It’s actually a message.

】

"Are you free? How about taking the time to come over and talk things through?" Thanos looked at the meaningless message.

[There is a strong enemy ahead. Next, jumping is very useful. 】

"Huh... Obviously, my current situation is also some of the Great Sage's 'fun'," Thanos looked at the new messages: "But, since they appeared after I made my judgment, that means This is the right direction.”

After waiting for another moment and seeing no new message, Thanos turned and walked towards the bonfire.

"[Goodbye, Lord Ashes, I hope you find a harbor where you can rest.]" The fireproof girl said from behind.

"Quack! Beep! Boom!" The crow also joined in the fun.

"Huh? Why is there only a bonfire in the 'Big Library'?" Thanos put his hand on the hilt of the spiral sword, but couldn't find the path to the destination for a moment: "It seems... because it was too smooth to push all the way. It looks like I forgot to light a lot of bonfires later.”

After briefly recalling the layout of Lothric City, Thanos chose "Cu Chulainn in the Cold Valley" for teleportation.

"[Gah——]" After the scene changed, a short-haired young man wearing blue tights and holding a big red gun suddenly came forward without saying a word.

"Tsk, you are far worse than your master." Thanos raised his foot and directly stepped on the big spear that was coming towards him to interrupt the attack, then punched the young man in the face and knocked him away.

"[Roar——]" The young man lowered his body and continued to roar like a threat, but he did not dare to approach because he had lost his weapon.

"Such a straightforward attack, I can see through it ten times if you hit it ten times." Thanos said casually, raised his foot and kicked the red gun away, then turned and walked towards Lothric City.

The originally majestic city was now filled with corpses of knights who had died of exhaustion and remained seated. However, those "corpses" were just empty shells, and the armor would scatter on the ground at the slightest touch.

At the same time, there were also some knights wearing the same armor as those walking around on the street. Most of them turned a blind eye to Thanos. Only the knights closer to him roared and waved their swords to launch a surprise attack - and then Thanos raised his hand. He flicked the sword away and stabbed it to death with his backhand.

A moment later, Thanos walked into a church-like building, where an elegant old woman wearing aristocratic clothing sat on a chair in the main hall.

"Hello, officiant Emma." Thanos greeted the old woman and walked towards the bonfire in the main hall to light it: "Hmm... strange, I don't seem to remember who I fought here? There should be a BOSS here. Coming?"

"Ashes without fire, please let the prince ascend the throne." The old woman said something unclear.

"Yeah, the two of them are already on the throne, and they are quite hot." Thanos responded casually, walked around behind her and started climbing the stairs: "'Mata Hari of Cold Valley'? The name of this bonfire It’s quite strange, is there such a BOSS?”
