Chapter 336: Champion of the First BvB Tournament of the French Circle
As for why he insisted on taking Millicent to find Malenia, it was because Millicent was not a complete person. She was the embodiment of Malenia's human dignity and could not survive alone.
It has also been shown in the game that Millicent will involuntarily move towards Malenia's position because they are one.
To give an example from another game, the relationship between Millicent and Malenia is like the relationship between V and Virgil.
V is the human side of Virgil. Without the human side, Virgil becomes the devil Urizen. Only when the two are combined can one be the real Virgil.
The same is true for the Valkyrie. Only when Millicent and her sisters merge with Marlennia will the real Valkyrie Marlennia wake up.
Now Malenia, who remains at the root of the sacred tree, is just an empty shell with divinity.
"Phew, luckily I can fly. I don't have to walk to the sacred tree like in the game. Otherwise I would have to walk till the end of time."
Xia Yu collected his thoughts and spread a pair of black wings behind him. He flapped his wings and broke through the roof, then flew towards the corrupt church on the cliff.
If you think about it carefully, it is indeed more handsome to grow wings and fly. Flying with a sword is too inconsistent with the Western fantasy style.
The Church of Corruption is right above Gwei's dilapidated house. It's a scarlet church on the scarlet land, and one can tell the ominous things just by looking at it.
In an instant, Xia Yu had arrived above the church. There were two mantis shrimp worms at the entrance of the church below. They were the followers of corruption.
It looks like an oversized upright mantis shrimp, with long and thin limbs and a special insect-blade halberd in its hand.
The pale blade of the halberd seemed to be made of hard shell material. It looked a bit rough at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it had an inhuman beauty.
“Tsk.”
The moment he saw the bug, Xia Yu let out a light sigh. Among all the disgusting monsters, this bug was definitely one of the worst.
The insect can secrete large amounts of sticky silk threads from its back and then shoot them at its enemies like arrows.
It's not just about shooting, the thread will track you and it hurts a lot, it once gave him a headache in the game.
Sizzle!
A small crackling sound was heard, and Xia Yu grasped two golden lightning guns in his hands and threw them at the two insects at the door.
The sound of electricity in the air flashed by, and with a bang, lightning exploded.
The two insects that were hit were instantly baptized by lightning all over their bodies, and then their bodies were charred. Then golden lightning fell from the sky, completely crushing the two charred insects into ashes.
One of the prayers of the ancient dragon faith in the royal city is the lightning gun, which can use lightning in hand to punish the enemy.
Unlike the ancient dragons in Dark Souls who are afraid of thunder , the ancient dragons in the Ring of Fate use thunder as their weapon.
Xia Yu learned this prayer from Teacher Daguigui by taking the Dragon Faith Prayer Book.
The origin of the Dragon Faith Prayer Book comes from a royal city knight who was patrolling alone. Seeing that the other party was patrolling too hard, he secretly knocked him out and let him have a good rest.
As a reward, he stripped the Royal City Knight of his knight's suit and everything valuable on his body.
As a good man who does good deeds without leaving his name, he certainly did not leave any clues. I believe that the knight would be moved to tears when he wakes up.
"Alas, I wonder when Ashes will be able to learn the Sunshine Spear, the Sunshine Spear..."
Xia Yu muttered casually, flapping his wings and flying towards the interior of the church. The church was a typical Marika church, but at this moment it had turned scarlet.
Holy Blood Wood sprouts grow on the ground, sprouts that are filled with blood and cannot continue to grow.
At the side of the church, there was a ragged red-haired girl lying there. Her hair was disheveled and her face could not be seen clearly. Her clothes were stained with blood.
Her right hand had been severed at the root, and when you got closer you could hear the girl's painful moans.
This is Millicent, one of Malenia's human incarnations. She once dominated the martial arts world with a move called "Water Bird Dance" that was almost the same as Malenia's, and even won the championship of the first Elden French Tournament BvB competition.
By the way, no one will remember the second place unless the second place is always the second place, which happens to be the case with "Sir Hundred Wisdom" Gideon O'Fnir, who was the second place in both the first and second sessions.
People in the underworld call him the eternal second.
Xia Yu flew to the church, folded his wings and landed, just in front of Millicent. Hearing the noise, Millicent raised her head slightly and murmured softly.
"Wu...you, who are you?"
The girl raised her eyes that were suppressing the pain, looked at Xia Yu's figure through the red hair, and said weakly.
"No matter who you are, you'd better leave me. The scarlet corruption in my body is wriggling... This is a curse, not something that ordinary people should touch."
"Well... I'm not an ordinary person, I'm an ordinary person." Xia Yu squatted down in front of Millicent and reached out to touch Millicent.
Seeing this, Millicent twisted her body anxiously and said urgently: "Don't touch me, the scarlet corruption in my body is contagious, you will be infected."
Xia Yu ignored him and still reached out to touch Millicent's face. Feeling the touch on her face, Millicent closed her eyes in despair.
She could already feel the scarlet corruption in her body stirring, and it seemed that it was about to break through the surface of her body and explode completely...
No, she could never let the Scarlet Corruption hurt anyone else. This was her resistance as a human being, even if it was a weak resistance.
But the next moment, a warm feeling came, and the originally squirming scarlet corruption seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, and scrambled to drill deep into the body.
Millicent opened her eyes in surprise. She felt the source of the warmth was the palm on her face.
Feeling the palm as warm as the sun, she couldn't help but rub it with her cheek, like a wounded kitten.
Looking at Millicent's relaxed brows, Xia Yu smiled and thanked the dead old bug Gwei in his heart.
Because of the other party, he was able to control this temperature, a temperature that would make the scarlet corruption retreat without harming the body.
It is possible to completely eradicate the Scarlet Corruption, but given Millicent's current condition, it seems a bit too difficult.
If the Scarlet Corruption was forcibly burned, Millicent would also be injured, and there was a possibility that she would die together with the Scarlet Corruption, which was not what he wanted.
As the flames purified, Millicent's suppressed expression of pain slowly relaxed, and her face appropriately revealed fatigue.
In order to fight the scarlet corruption in her body, she hadn't had a good rest for a long time, and she almost forgot the last time she slept.
Suddenly, without the torture of scarlet corruption, a feeling of exhaustion immediately came over her, and she couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep.
Feeling Millicent's tiredness, Xia Yu silently used his mental power to soothe her exhausted spirit. Under Xia Yu's soothing and hypnosis, Millicent gradually lost consciousness.
She fell asleep.
