Chapter 14 Embarking on the Journey Again
Chapter 14 Embarking on the Journey Again
Killing just one person is equivalent to killing Gundyr, who has two thousand souls. This is an incredible profit.
But the soul isn't the point; the point is the two small black semen that Li Wei is holding, which burst out of people's bodies.
After Li Wei took it out, everyone in the sacrificial site had a need for it.
Fire Keeper: "Lord Ash, do you know why the undead would do anything to kill you when they see you? It's the curse of the undead. Because you are like a living person, that's what they crave, something that can restore their humanity."
"If you give me these two Humanity tokens, I can restore the two Gravekeepers to serve as your companions in linking the fire until they die again. Rest assured, each of them possesses unwavering faith."
Disheartened Wood: "Hey, Levi, how about I have these two humanoids? I'm going out for a bit to see if I can use them for my captain and the others. I'll bring you back some good stuff, and maybe even some powerful companions willing to go with you. But you'll have to wait a while."
The lunatic old maid said, "Lord Ash, I'll pay a hefty price for this, an absolutely hefty price."
Boxing champion and blacksmith Andre: "It's been a long time since I've seen this. Keep it safe; you might be able to save someone you want to help. You can also exchange it for some powerful equipment. The choice is yours."
The dwarf on the throne, the exiled Rudauth: "Ashes, I need them too. If I had more humanity, I could burn longer, and the end of the world could come even longer."
The ability to awaken the living dead is a fatal attraction for all forces. Li Wei already imagined that if he took these soulless and inhuman creatures out, they might go crazy on the spot and kill anyone they saw.
But if Li Wei didn't hand this thing over, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to leave the sacrificial site. Disheartened Brother already had his eyes red and his hand on the hilt of the sword, looking like he was ready to fight to the death to snatch it.
Is this a new way for me to start the Ashes of Time? Instead of playing the hero game of saving the world alone, am I starting a mercenary mode, recruiting people to ride horses and slash in other worlds?
Disheartened Hawkwood, the escapee who removed his tricorn hat, was a deserter from the Farron Undead Legion, one of the five Lords of Cinder.
The individual strength of the Undead members is negligible compared to other Lords of Cinder, but when the wolf blood within all the members comes together, they become a powerful Lord of Cinder.
The weapon, the "Fran Greatsword," is a "special greatsword" consisting of a claw-shaped dagger in the left hand and a greatsword in the right. Due to its wolf-like agility in attack patterns and movements, it is jokingly referred to as the "Fran Street Dance Team."
They are warriors who seek out signs of the abyss in the darkness, who share the blood of wolves and take it as their oath.
The fact that the Undead Legion was willing to destroy an entire country in order to eradicate the Abyss demonstrates their literal "nation-destroying" power.
The undead, infected by the abyss, continued to kill each other in Farron Keep, which led Wood to become disheartened and escape.
But does humanity have any effect on the undead squad infected by the Abyss?
Hopefully, tsk tsk.
In the end, Levi handed the two human tokens to Wood as payment for teaching him how to kill.
With a large sum of souls flowing into his account, Li Wei upgraded his equipment, getting a full set of knight's armor.
Its attribute values have also caught up with those of a proper lower-ranking knight in the Soul World.
Disheartened Brother ran away. Li Wei, who had nothing to do after losing his mentor, rested for a while with the comfort of the arsonist girl before embarking on his journey again.
However, this time it's still not a proper world, since no proper world has werewolves.
With a single sword stroke, he pierced the werewolf that lunged at him, pinned him to the ground with both hands, and stepped on the still struggling werewolf. He then slid the sword upwards, splitting the werewolf into a Y shape before finally stopping him from moving any further.
After collecting the fallen items, Li Wei finally had time to observe his surroundings.
The wooden house was covered in a thick layer of ash, the food was moldy, the refrigerator was dripping black water, and the sink was piled high with dirty dishes.
It's modern, but there are werewolves.
After ransacking the house and finding a double-barreled rifle and twenty buckshot rounds on a corpse in the attic, Li Wei roughly understood where he was: Resident Evil 8.
Also known as The Mycelium Superman's Search for His Daughter, the protagonist is Ethan, an "ordinary person" who has never received any training. He has explosive combat power and can take down anyone he can catch. He destroys everything in the village and fights his way out.
But Ethan lost the double-barreled shotgun; is there any hope for him? Should he just wait?
As for leaving the gun behind and rushing out with the sword, that's ridiculous. How can you become a good Ashen if you have a gun but don't use a sword?
After loading two rounds into the shotgun, a test shot was fired. The loud noise caused howls and screams outside the house, the sound of running footsteps, and something starting to bang on the door.
Li Wei was quite satisfied with this; killing as many of these things as possible before he died would make the trip worthwhile.
As for killing his way through this godforsaken place like Superman, Li Wei never even considered it. He was joking; how could a weakling like him possibly kill his way through?
A bunch of monsters and freaks. Even dozens of fully armed, legitimate special forces soldiers would be wiped out here.
Reload the ammunition, stick the sword in the ground, place the ammunition on the table, and point the gun at the doorway.
The werewolf that tried to break down the door was riddled with bullets by Li Wei with two shots.
With one hand, he flicked the gun barrel open, quickly inserted two rounds, then lifted it up again and fired two shots at the werewolf who was still rushing into the room.
After several gunshots, he drew his sword and slashed at the rooftop attic, aiming to pierce through the claws that were trying to grab Li Wei.
......
On the other side, Ethan fled from the burning house with a look of grief and indignation. He heard several gunshots coming from the village and, thinking there were still survivors, rushed over with his pistol in hand.
When he arrived, he saw a burly man in knight's armor burst out of the room carrying a werewolf, the werewolf's claws sending sparks flying from his armor.
But the burly man ignored it, half-kneeling down on the werewolf, and plunged his sword into its head.
Just then, a werewolf appeared out of the roof and pounced down on the knight.
Ethan quickly reminded him.
"behind!"
The knight rolled away from the claws, stood up, and slid in at the werewolf who was lunging at him again.
Ethan, watching the knight searching for something among the werewolf's carcass littered with entrails, couldn't help but ask.
"Who are you? Do you know anything about this village? Have you seen my daughter? She's only a few months old!"
Li Wei removed his helmet, revealing a normal human face. He stared at Ethan for a moment, then decided that they should go their separate ways.
I can just kill some low-level soldiers and collect some souls myself; I'll leave the other monsters and demons to this freak.
He gave Ethan a standard cheering gesture.
"Keep trying. There's a double-barreled shotgun in the room that you might need."
After saying that, he took his sword and left the spot.
"Hey, wait a minute! What's going on here?"
Ethan, who had originally intended to give chase, glanced at the small pistol in his hand. Thinking about the knight's inexplicable and impressive actions earlier, which seemed unlike those of a normal person, he decided to follow his heart and grab the shotgun first.
