The Collection of The End

——? ? ? ——

In the Kingdom of Shadows, the Fire Sacrifice Site.

Ding!

Boom! Boom!

Thanos had just returned to the Fire Sacrifice through the bonfire when he heard bursts of metal collisions, flames burning and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

"What's that news? Is the Immortal Team dishonest again?" The fireproof girl picked up the spiral sword and looked around.

"Don't worry, they are just fighting the black knights outside. Hawkwood said it was to 'keep in shape'," the old maid walked over slowly, raised her old and dull eyes and looked at the fire girl and then Look at Thanos: "Lord Ashes, what did you do to my girl? She would never have an attitude of beating up the perpetrator when something like this happened before."

"People always change," Thanos shrugged: "She used to only roll and slash, but now she has learned how to reverse shield, backstab, sharpen heavy weapons, stack toughness, enchant weapons, and use bows and arrows. , throwing props, and is already an excellent fire prevention girl.”

"... Just tell me what else she can't do?" The old maid sighed.

"Magic, miracles and spells don't know it yet, because neither do I." Thanos replied.

"Don't embarrass Master Ashes, mother-in-law," the fire prevention girl looked around for a while and confirmed that it was just the undead team who were not on duty to spread fire and were fighting outside. "Master Ashes just captured the Giant King Youmu and Eldridge. oh."

"...Where are they?" The old maid tilted her head and looked behind Thanos: "Those two salary kings are not small in size."

"Here." Thanos took out a huge helmet from behind, which contained a very suspicious black viscous liquid: "The holy relic of the Giant King and Eldridge's spiritual core."

"You actually killed them?" Ludos said from the throne, his tone full of joy at escaping. : "But... well, if they don't want to spread the fire, then they have to refuse..."

"How is it? Do you feel how kind it is that we only break your legs?" Thanos turned to look at him.

"No, Master Ashes is joking," the fire prevention girl explained to the old maid anxiously: "When we arrived at Irushil Cathedral, the Giant King and the Devourer of Gods fought because Eldridge wanted to regain his strength. After returning to his hometown, he sent Pope Sullivan to capture a group of undead people to devour, but among them was Youmu’s friend, a man who looked like an onion.”

"...Can a person look like an onion?" the old maid expressed doubt.

"Hmm, it seems to be armor? That's not important," the fireproof woman thought for a moment and continued: "When I was dealing with Sullivan, Master Ashes participated in the battle between Youmu and Eldridge and successfully killed them. Kill them all.”

"I have to clarify, I didn't kill either of them. It was just that Eldridge lost his mind after taking out his 'Spirit Key' and swallowed Youmu forcefully. Then because it was 'too heavy', the two of them" People' fall into the abyss together, and if given the chance, they will climb out like Wannier." Thanos tried to clarify.

"You defeated Sullivan? Good boy." Obviously, the old maid didn't care what Thanos did.

"Master Ashes said, the only soldiers who can bounce back are the soldiers, there is nothing to be proud of." The fireproof girl waved her hands repeatedly.

"..." Thanos shrugged, carrying the helmet, he walked to Eldridge and Youm's thrones, and placed the sludge and the huge helmet with a trace of fire on them respectively.

Chi——

The flames ignited, and the entire fire-passing sacrificial site became much brighter.

"Then, the next step is to 'persuade' Prince Lorian -" Thanos was mid-sentence, when a bright golden light suddenly bloomed on his body, and at the same time, he remembered the prayer of Emma, ​​the priest of Lothric.

[Ashes without fire, I beg you, come to me immediately——]

"Huh...huh?" The fire-proof girl was about to say something, but she found that the same phenomenon appeared on her body.

"Although this method of 'summoning the undead' has no effect on me, we cannot allow this effect to be realized." Thanos looked at the fire-proof woman: "Let's go together."

The next second, the surrounding environment changed instantly, from the Fire Sacrifice to Lothric Cathedral.

In front of Emma, ​​the main priest, there was a woman wearing silver armor, a gauze draped over her shoulders, and holding two swords, approaching with obvious ill intentions.

Then, he was knocked to the ground directly by a sword with a burning flame.

————

"I'm very sorry!" The dancer in Lenglie Valley knelt on her knees to salute the priest Emma: "Pope Sullivan ordered us to come to Lothric to monitor you, the priest who advocates spreading fire, to prevent you from changing your mind or being exposed by someone new. The ashes convinced me and agreed to continue spreading the fire, but..."

She quietly turned her head and looked at the sword of sin held by the fire-prevention woman. It was the sword that Pope Sullivan never left his body. It only meant one thing that the fire-prevention woman would get it...

When she received the order and rushed to Lothric, Wu Huoyu led the fireproof girl to chop down the Pope.

"Hmph... I knew that guy advocated putting out fires from the beginning, but I didn't expect that he would do it so decisively..." Emma's chief priest looked calmly: "But since everyone is dead, this matter will not be pursued."

"If you want to pursue the case, you have to go to the abyss to arrest people," Thanos said: "I believe you have sensed that the four candidate salary kings have returned to their thrones. Before they burn out, there is no need for the prince to pass on Huo, maybe you plan to persuade him again?"

"No need..." Priest Emma shook his head: "Your action of bringing back all the kings shows your powerful ability. Ashes, just like you have always done, go to the royal city and let His Highness the Prince ascend the throne—— If possible, please do not kill him."

"It seems that your deeds of kidnapping people and spreading fire have spread~" The fire-proof woman poked Thanos' waist from behind.

Priest Emma coughed, pretended not to hear, stood up from his seat, pulled a strange-looking statue behind him, and let a ladder descend from it.

"No matter how many times, I have been confused by this strange way of entering the inner city," Thanos reached out to grab the ladder, and then turned to the dancer thoughtfully: "You——"

"I am a saint from the former royal family and am not a subordinate of Sullivan. This veil can prove that since he is dead, I will naturally not continue to obey his orders. I will leave now-" The dancer seemed to have put together eight sentences. Said at the same speed.

"...Oh." Thanos originally wanted to say something, but was forgotten by this barrage of words.

"No, you stay here to protect the officiant," the fire prevention girl said: "You are not a group of people sent here, right? There may be other people who are not well-informed and will be detrimental to the officiant. You must ensure that Emma will not Lose a hair, or I will let Lord Ashes chop you off."

"I promise!" The dancer looked at the big sword in the hand of the fire-proof girl: "Whoever dares to hurt the officiant, I will cut him into eight pieces!"
