Chapter 4: Breaking other people's defense is not as fun as breaking your own defense
Dark Souls Three Worlds.
There were some dark clouds floating in the gloomy but not dim sky, huge dry trees were standing lifelessly, and skinny gravekeepers were wandering aimlessly on the cliff.
The gravekeeper is an undead being hovering in the cemetery. His dark blue robe and cloak hide his ugly appearance. He moves slowly and has only some instinctive fighting awareness.
They are zombies that have lost their humanity and self, and will wield their broken weapons to attack any living person they see.
Ash Xia Yu was sitting cross-legged beside the campfire at this moment. He was wearing a medieval knight suit, with a straight sword in his right hand and a shield on his back. His original identity was a knight.
The bonfires in the soul world have the same function as the blessings in the Elden Ring world, which are equivalent to the save points and resting places in the game.
As long as you rest at the campfire, your physical strength and magic power will recover faster, and those dead monsters will be refreshed again.
There is also a related explanation in the game. Due to the weakening of the First Flame and the collapse of the world, time and space gradually became chaotic, causing this place to never be able to calm down, and weak monsters will appear endlessly.
So the meaning of soul brushing is to repeatedly kill those monsters and gain experience for upgrading.
"Let's brush souls together? That's a possible solution."
Looking at the suggestions given by Resident Evil Xia Yu in the chat group, Ashes Xia Yu felt that this was indeed a good idea, because the Undead Xia Yu and he were from the same world, but the timeline was different, and there was no such thing as Supreme Will in the soul world. If he could protect himself, this would be a safe world.
Although this safe world is about to perish, after all, the theme of the Souls series of games is decay and destruction.
While Xia Yu of Ashes was thinking about some random things, he invited Xia Yu, the undead man from the Soul One world, to come to his own world.
【You invited Xia Yu】
【Xia Yu agreed to your invitation】
In an instant, a ripple emerged from the air, as if a space door had opened, and a figure appeared out of thin air.
The figure's attire was similar to Huijin Xia Yu's, both were dressed like medieval knights, but the style of the armor was slightly different.
"Your initial identity was also a knight. What a coincidence."
Ash Xia Yu raised his eyebrows and stretched out his right hand.
The undead Xia Yu had just arrived when he saw the ash Xia Yu extending his right hand towards him. He also raised his eyebrows slightly and understood what Xia Yu meant. They were the same person, so their thoughts were basically the same.
When the two held hands together...
Nothing happened.
"…Although I expected this, I still feel a little unwilling to give it a try."
"Yeah, the power is not shared after all. The guy from Resident Evil guessed it right."
The immortal Xia Yu withdrew his hand helplessly, and then sent this conclusion in the chat group.
You can go to other people's worlds, but power cannot be shared. There seems to be no limit to going to other people's worlds. You can stay there forever and return at any time.
After sharing his conclusion, the undead Xia Yu drew out his straight sword and nodded towards the ash Xia Yu who was still sitting cross-legged on the ground.
"Let's go and brush the souls. I'll see if I can absorb the souls here."
"After all, I don't need the Fire Keeper to help me level up. I can level up by myself by sitting by the campfire."
Because of the gameplay, the undead with one soul can upgrade on their own and do not need the Fire Keeper. As long as they sit by the campfire, the undead can directly use their souls to upgrade.
After the game world became the real world, this feature was also inherited, so the undead Xia Yu could mobilize the soul energy in his body to strengthen himself as long as he sat by the campfire.
"Alas, I haven't even had time to eat a bite of rice, although I can't taste it either."
Ashes Xia Yu climbed up from the campfire and complained that his identity as Ashes had caused him to lose his sense of taste and the needs of being a human being.
He no longer needed to eat or excrete, and his injuries would heal quickly. Even if he was seriously injured, he could recover completely after taking some medicine.
Moreover, both the medicine bottle of ash and the medicine bottle of the undead are element bottles, and I don’t know if they can be used interchangeably. After all, one of them is an immortal undead, and the other is an incombustible residue, that is, ash.
They are not actually the same species, although they both look like humans.
"You can give out your Ashes physique in red envelopes, then recover to a normal person's physique and eat, then collect your Ashes physique again, right?"
"Anyway, you can give out anything in the red envelope. Once you get rid of the ash constitution, the side effects will surely disappear."
The undead Xia Yu looked at the Ash Xia Yu who was suddenly stunned, with a hint of disgust on his face. Is this guy really himself?
"Your brain has been burned, right? You haven't thought of this yet?"
“…”
Ash Xia Yu was silent, then changed the subject somewhat abruptly: "Let's...let's go and refresh our souls. Eating and the like are not as important as refreshing our souls."
After saying that, Ash Xia Yu picked up his straight sword and rushed towards the zombies on the cliff.
Ha sa ge!
Looking at the somewhat embarrassed appearance of Ash Xia Yu, the Undead Xia Yu suddenly laughed out loud. It was quite fun to persecute himself.
Since I let you break my defense before, don't blame me for persecuting you.
"Go slow, leave a few for me."
Drawing out the straight sword from his waist, the undead Xia Yu also joined the massacre. He was very familiar with killing zombies.
While the two were brushing souls, Marvel's Xia Yu on the other side also embarked on the journey back to New York.
All the big events happen there, you have to go.
But if we really talk about the Marvel world, it’s not that dangerous. After all, as long as you stay low and don’t try to attract attention, there will basically be no problems.
Unless you are unlucky and get caught in the aftermath of the battle.
But this is also inevitable. After all, there will always be casualties in a battle, let alone ordinary people who are fragile.
Even Superman, who has biological powers, will destroy buildings when fighting powerful enemies, and there must be ordinary people in the buildings who failed to escape.
This is also the reason why Batman hates Superman.
"But I'm not an ordinary person, am I?"
Marvel Xia Yu closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, thinking silently. He had already boarded the plane back to New York and was on the plane at the moment.
Before leaving, for his own safety, he asked the Faded One Xia Yu for some physical strength. This amount of physical strength was nothing to Xia Yu, and he could make up for it by leveling up a few more times.
But for Xia Yu, who was just an ordinary person before, this physique is amazing, although it cannot make him directly become the pinnacle of humanity like Captain America.
But he can still beat ten people alone. It's a pity that he only has the physique but lacks the relevant fighting knowledge. It would be great if there was a Xia Yu from The Matrix.
As far as Xia Yu knows, The Matrix seems to have a game, but it is not as . The game is called "The Matrix: Path of Neo", and it is an old game from the past few years.
Although this game is not very good from today's perspective, it could be considered a masterpiece in its era.
[Dark Souls III]: I'm going to fight Guda with the undead, please give me some support!
[Dark Souls III]: Anything is fine, as long as it can increase the chances of winning, I will accept it!
Looking at the message that popped up in the chat group, Xia Yu thought about the new killer Mr. Gu, and then sent out his newly enhanced physique without hesitation.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. It is better to have it than not to have it. It is always good to increase the chances of winning.
