Chapter 917 899. The lightless world

??‘Is it not allowed to wear military armor because of the payment of wages in the school grounds today?’?

Lan En thought silently in his heart and sighed.

?An old-fashioned plan, but really simple and effective.

??After all, the Knights of Lothric are completely loyal to Lothric, and one of the two princes of the coup, the eldest prince Lorian, even personally led the knights to fight.

?The knights respected this noble and brave prince of the gods.

But because of this kind of loyalty and respect, who can be wary when the prince personally orders them to gather in the chapel?

?Lan En pinched his temples calmly, looking as if he had just woken up and was still a little unconscious.

?But he was actually relieving the pain in his head that was like being bitten by predatory bugs.

?The erosion of darkness is becoming more apparent as the First Fire weakens.

?But according to Mentos' biological clock, it should be daytime now!

?Lorenzo asked beside Lan.

It’s too dark.

??The Lothric knights who had just replaced their patrol posts were also resting against the wall in the church hall. Some priests were unskilled in using restorative [miracles] to heal the injuries they sustained while patrolling.

?At this point, there was some light in the poor visibility.

?Then he walked towards the body of the flying dragon outside the church.

??The sun in this world turned into a "bleeding eclipse" some time ago, and the light intensity was like the tail end of dusk on a normal day.

?No wonder, the darkness in the body is stirring.

“Do you mind if I take a look at the dragon knight coming down from the inner city?”

??And when Lan En and Lorenzo pushed open the heavy church door, the witcher's eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.

??This flying dragon's corpse showed many signs of being ravaged by thunder.

“Since you woke up just now, I feel like you are feeling a little uncomfortable.”

“That’s why I’m looking for you.” Lorenzo nodded nonchalantly and watched Lan En stand up from the ground. "I need a lot of advice right now, any advice."

?Because the world is one step closer to extinction.

"How are you?"

?Thunderbolts, and thunder pots similar to flame pots.

?That is the dragon-hunting equipment of the Lothric knights.

?And now.

??Lothric knights, as well as the common people who were lucky enough to be alive and came to the church to seek refuge on the high wall, all demolished the wood and furniture on the building and made simple fires and torches.

?The light in the sky is now only equivalent to a dark night when the moon is still good.

??Although the Knights of Lothric are now accompanied by dragons, the skill of hunting dragons is still the foundation of the combat system.

?“No, it’s nothing.” Lan En calmly skipped the topic.

?Originally, the steps in front of the church were wide enough for ten people to walk side by side.

??But when a flying dragon fell here, the dragon's wing claws and wing membranes were too large and had to hang diagonally on the wall beside the stairs.

?The body of a dragon knight was pressed against the legs by the flying dragon's head, and then his chest was nailed to the ground by a knight's spear.

It seems that this is the dragoon that came down to chase.

?When Lan En walked over, the knights stepped aside to get out of the way. He found that Emma, ??the officiant, was also present.

?A few people nodded to each other and greeted each other, then Lan En squatted next to the corpse of the prince's dragon knight and began to look at it.

? Nothing complicated, just an ordinary dragoon wearing a full set of ordinary Lothric knight armor. However, Lan En still deliberately turned over the small lantern on his waist that had been broken during the fall.

?“How did it become like this?”

??Emma, ??the officiant, was muttering to himself in a somewhat lost state.

??It's just that what she kept looking at was the darkness beyond the firelight around her, not the dragon knight in front of her.

?Obviously the environmental changes caused by the first fire are the object of her sentence.

“The bell has sounded, and there should be three of the four remaining salary kings, even excluding Eldridge who escaped!”

“How could something happen to the Undead of Farland, the Giant King of the Sinful Capital—Yum, and the exile of Culland—Ludos?”

“Until today, no one has arrived at the Fire Sacrifice and sat on the Throne of Desire to maintain the First Fire!?”

???Desire for the Throne? is a fire transmission device specially prepared for the four salary kings who maintain the world during the transition period.

?This thing has a high and sacred status. After all, it is a part of the fire-passing ceremony that keeps the world running.

?Hence, Lan En also saw a few words in the library of the Netherworld Church.

?This technology is a technology that was absorbed into Lothric along with the refugees after Dolanguleg was destroyed by Kasas.

?The normal way for the King of Fire to pass on the fire is to go to a place called the ‘initial furnace’, get in touch with the initial fire, and burn one’s own soul as firewood.

?As for the special salary kings who support the operation of the world during the transition period of the Fire Passing Ceremony, they have their own exclusive thrones at the Fire Passing Sacrifice.

?Up there, they don’t have to go to the initial furnace and come into contact with the first fire, lest they be burned out in one breath.

Instead, he can remotely transmit his power to the First Fire through the throne, and in a weak and continuous state, barely keep the First Fire from extinguishing. This allows Lothric to take advantage of this short period of stability to complete the Fire Passing Ceremony and restore stability to the world.

?In the tens of thousands of years that Lothric has been in charge of the fire-passing ceremony, even this kind of situation can be said to be very rare.

?But the current situation is that there is no salary king even on the throne of desire?

?There is no doubt that even for Lothric, this is a severe situation that has never been seen before.

“It is precisely because the situation has become extremely serious that we must take action!”

Lorenzo said in a tone of determination.

?His iron-gloved palms were placed on the side of Feilong's corpse, and then he clenched his fist into a fist and hammered it.

??????????????????????????ification.

“Now no matter what, we must go to see King Osroais! Now is not the time to follow the king’s orders! Emma is the priest!”

??Lorenzo turned to look at the old priesthood leader, his tone almost accusing.

"The reason why Lothrik founded the country is to spread the fire! Even His Majesty himself said that he only saved himself because he wanted to preside over the overall situation. If it reaches the point of no return, then as the oldest and most powerful person today, The gods should also devote themselves to the First Fire. The Age of Fire will last until the last moment."

“The courtyard where His Majesty locked himself is just above the church, not far from the road into the inner city.”

“I don’t understand, we’ve already reached this point! Seeing that the first fire is going out! Why should we hesitate? Can’t we even meet with His Majesty to get an idea?!”

?The surrounding Lothric knights couldn't help but make a commotion when they heard this.

?They are all fire sects, and only then will they surround Lorenzo.

?In this already divided country, they have decided that ‘spreading the fire’ is more important than ‘the royal family’.

?Lorenzo's words were their tendency at the moment.

After bowing his head in silence for a long time, Priest Emma looked up at the lightless sky and finally sighed.

“Yes. Nothing is more important than inheriting the flame.”

?“Let’s go, pick up some strong men, and I will show you the way to your Majesty’s courtyard.”

?It wasn’t until the Emma priest sighed and said these words that Lorenzo’s expression softened a little, and the surrounding Lothric knights also seemed to have a slightly high morale.

Wearing helmets, they nodded to each other as a celebration of hearing good news in this increasingly bad world.

?But at this time, Lan En put forward a different point of view.

?“I suggest it’s better not to let too many people go, everyone.”

?Suddenly, people around him looked at the demon hunter.

The demon hunter seemed not to feel these gazes, and fiddled with the small lantern on the waist of the dragon knight's body with the toe of his boot.

“This lantern is just hanging on his waist, but there is no sign of it being lit, everyone.”

??The witcher raised his head and glanced around with his cat eyes.

“I’m not looking down on your fighting will, but can you maintain your fighting power in the dark?”

?The darkness in this world is not a simple phenomenon of light and shadow, but something with real influence.

??So the Lothric knights present now either have small lighted glass lanterns on their waists, or they hold torches in their hands for lighting.

?“But this guy is fine.”

?Lan kicked the little lantern again that had not been lit until it broke.

"They serve the prince and have never changed their loyalty even to this point. So it doesn't matter even if they fight in the dark."

"Darkness is flourishing now. If they attack now, who will have the advantage? If the elite knights are sent out, will there be any ability to deal with it?"

Even the most aggressive Lorenzo could only close his mouth, grit his teeth, and bulge his muscles under Lan En's calm questions, but could not utter a word of rebuttal.

?This is indeed a real problem.

?In order to spread the fire, they should take action. But in this city, it is estimated that this is the only Fire Sect stronghold that still retains its organizational structure.

??If this place is captured, then the Holy City of Fire Transferring Lothric will be equivalent to a complete fall.

?“So what do you think?”

? ? Priest Emma did not hesitate after making the decision, and directly asked Lan En, who raised the question, if he had a plan.

?“The plan does allow me to go, alone.”

Lan En said with a nonchalant expression.

“I am not a member of the Knights, and I have no cooperation in fighting with you. My leaving will not have much impact on the combat effectiveness here.”

“And to be honest, your mobility is really poor. It’s much more convenient for me to do it alone.”

?Lorenzo’s expression stiffened.

?Others may have doubts about this statement, but he has personally seen Lan En jump onto a roof several meters high with just a slight turn!

?Although I don’t know why this guy can move so elegantly, there is no doubt that what he said is true.

?“It seems that everyone has no opinions?”

??Priest Emma looked at Lorenzo's expression and nodded.

"Okay, it's settled. Come here, Lan. I'll show you the way."
