The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

Kingdom of Shadows, Lothric City Gate.

"Anyway, I'm going to catch the King of Salary with the Fireproof Girl now. Do you have anything to say? Still can't kill the BOSS?" Thanos looked at the entanglement on the city gate and sealed it tightly. The living Qiu knot vines asked.

[You can cut this level. 】A message flashed across.

"Oh? My 'level'?" Thanos raised his eyebrows: "Which level are you on?"

[Not sure, maybe hundreds of levels, maybe thousands of levels. After all, there is no difference at all in the world after the eighth level. 】

"Hmph... If 'reincarnation' has one more layer at a time, there must be at least 10,000 layers here." Thanos responded.

No new messages appeared this time, maybe because there is nothing to say, or maybe because I was laughed at this outrageous calculation.

"Lord Ashes?" The fireproof girl looked at Thanos, who was standing still, and asked in confusion.

"I'm thinking about how to open this door. I wonder if holding the small ring flag high will help." Thanos responded.

Yes, the fire prevention girl came with her, because she wanted to persuade those who originally stayed at the sacrificial site to go back. If that didn't work, find someone to replace them. After all, she was ready to go out with Guda to spread the fire, so she could change her companions halfway. No difference.

The advantage of this is that Thanos can "upgrade" at any time, but the disadvantage is that she cannot die.

Although according to the "setting", after the fire-proof girl is killed, she will be resurrected as long as she sits on a bonfire, and the "eyes of the first-generation fire-proof girl" handed to her will drop - if such a thing exists, but look at Guda's greedy and fearful person. With a dead look, this information may not be accurate.

"Try burning it with a torch?" The fire prevention girl took out a torch from behind and tentatively approached the door.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Before she could put the fire to the vines that tied the door, there were heavy footsteps behind her. When she looked back, she found that it was a tree...one end...a big ball that was entangled with each other, like a giant ball of wool. A ball made of the same vines, and this "vine thread ball" also sprouted four weird limbs like hands and feet. The dull thumping sound that kept coming was their "footsteps".

"'The Cursed Tree'? Why is it here?" Thanos raised his sword warily.

[Jiu Zhan Magpie's Nest] The message flashed by.

"This place is a bit far from the ghost's cave house.

Moreover, to be able to drive away a BOSS, the person occupying that side should be at least a salary king. However, before that, it is right to kill it first. "Thanos raised his hand to stop the eager fire-prevention woman, and took the initiative to rush towards the cursed tree covered with vines over there.

Splash—click—!

With one strike of the golden sword, the vines wrapped around the cursed tree broke off, and fell or collapsed in a large area. However, the tree itself was not affected, and the "hand" was raised without any lull in the movement. He slapped it hard, and Thanos could only retreat to avoid it.

"Lord Ashes! Burn it!" the fireproof woman who was watching the battle with a spiral sword reminded loudly.

"Are you a fire-prevention woman or a fire-arsonist woman?" Thanos complained while circling the tree half a circle: "Theoretically, this thing should have some weak points similar to 'eggs', but..."

The surface of the cursed tree made of vines is very smooth, not to mention "eggs", there are not even the knots that trees naturally form.

"It's really troublesome..." Thanos cut off the "hand" that bound the tree for the third time. After watching it regenerate a new arm within a few seconds, he simply put away his sword and pointed it at the tree. Roar: "YolToorShul! (Breath of Fire)"

The vines wrapped around the big tree were instantly scorched and cracked, and the big tree itself was severely damaged, spraying out a large piece of white resin. Then, with an unexpected agility, it quickly dug holes in the ground, and then drilled out. Go in - taking the vines that seal the door with you.

"Awesome! Master Ashes!" The fireproof girl seemed not to think there was anything wrong with the behavior of spitting fire from her mouth, and clapped and cheered.

"Judging from the parts where the resin is ejected...if it cools and solidifies, it will definitely form something like an 'egg'." Thanos narrowed one eye: "There are too many coincidences, and it is no longer a coincidence."

————

Outside the gate of Lothrik City, there was originally a bridge spanning a deep stream, but it was broken by the fallen body of a giant dragon before Thanos appeared. Now there is only an abyss in front of the gate.

When Thanos came to the end of the road, he didn't rush to raise the small ring flag he got from Emma's priest. He just stood there and looked into the distance. However, because the world was dark, even if there were firelight in those places, it would be difficult to see. Clear the whole picture.

On the nearest opposite bank, there are a large number of haphazardly built wooden houses with no architectural design at all. They are the "Undead Settlement" where undead people gather. On one side of the Undead Settlement, there is the "Forest of Punishment" where sinners are sent out and filled with people. The Toxic Sludge Flange Pit, oh, the Flange Swamp.

The Forest of Justice leads to the Deep Church, and deep in the Farland Swamp is the Farang Fortress that suppresses the abyss. Only the tops of these two buildings can be seen vaguely.

"The 'Flan Undead Team' should have returned to the Flan Fortress, and 'Eldridge' is probably in the Netherworld Church. The Giant King Youm may have returned to the Capital of Crime," the fireproof woman walked to Thanos, like a tour guide Pan began to explain: "The salary king closest to us should be the 'Exile Ludos' in the undead settlement."

"Rudos the Exile?" Thanos asked in surprise: "Why is he in the Undead Settlement?"

"Well... The reason why he is called the 'Exile' is because he has mastered a kind of magic that can 'materialize the soul'. Therefore, he was regarded as an evil person by the people in his hometown and was expelled. If he will stay in the undead settlement, , probably because when he trained the souls of those wandering souls who had lost their memories, no one would have any objections to him." Fireproof Girl explained.

"Tsk tsk, as far as the setting is concerned, it really matches the situation on Fate's side. Rudos can materialize souls, and he is also a big-headed, bald old man. He has an effect that makes him 'more vulnerable to attacks.' It’s not surprising at all that his ring will turn into Matou Zouken.” Thanos shook his head: “Then, let’s capture him and pass the fire first.”

"So, should we raise the 'small ring flag' now?" The fire prevention woman looked at the thing in Thanos' hand: "I heard that it is an 'airlift' treatment that only envoys from various countries can enjoy."

"You will be disappointed." Thanos said casually, and then raised the small ring flag high.

Pasha~Pasha~

"This sound...?" Thanos, who was looking under the bridge, waiting for something to climb up, raised his head in surprise. Then, he saw two men with big wings, wearing white priest uniforms, and blue eyes radiating golden light. Giants fell from the sky.

Before Thanos could question, the two blue giants each grabbed him and the fireproof woman by the backs of their necks, and flew them towards the undead settlement.

"I am indeed quite disappointed -" the fireproof girl said from a distance while pressing her skirt.

"I'm pretty sure the reason you were disappointed wasn't this." Thanos responded, crossing his arms.
