Chapter 357 Mibao's Insistence
As for the secret path to the Holy Snowfield, I believe that the kings of Elden do not need to explain it in detail.
All you have to do is find two secret symbols and go there through the Lord Elevator behind the Royal City of Rodel.
Of course, there are alternative means.
All I know is that after defeating Yuno Khosrow, jump down directly, then exit the game and reload. After that, it seems that you will be resurrected at the Marika statue near the Golden Tree Avatar, the boss monster of the Holy Snow Field below.
——However, this method probably won’t work now. What I want to quit is not the game, but my life!
Maremare obviously doesn't know this method, and I naturally won't tell anyone about it.
Not to mention that after Mare Mare finds out, he will definitely clamor to go with us. Riley, the "Dusk is Near" who is beside us, is now a subordinate of the King of Blessing. If he finds out that we are going to the forbidden area, he will report to Teacher Evil Omen.
Without a clear explanation, it is hard to say what Mr. Evil Omen will do.
Therefore, let’s wait until we get back to the Royal City of Rodel after we have resolved the issue of the Fire Mountain Residence and have a good talk about it.
After Maremare finished telling his story, he praised Millicent highly, which made Pollyanna impatient. She shouted that she was tired and wanted to rest.
Maremare immediately turned into the hotel's service manager and said excitedly, "There are many rooms upstairs in this lobby. If you are willing, you can rest as long as you want in Sunshade City."
"...But, those ghosts, immortals and the like, they won't break in, right?" I asked more cautiously.
Mare Mare said confidently: "Although the sword of execution was taken away by Elonmeier, this tower is still a symbol of the executioner and the territory of the Mare family. Even if the prisoners have more courage, they dare not approach it."
——······Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, I wouldn’t have to let those corrupt knights guard the elevator shaft. It might have been more convenient if we could deal with Elonmire together!
Forget it, it's all over.
We followed Maremmare and didn't notice before that there was a door in the corner of the city lord's hall that was not in the game. Behind the door was a staircase, and going up there were several floors of rooms.
Whether on the road or in some messy rooms, the bloodstains had turned black.
I'm afraid these are the traces left behind by Elronmel's massacre of all the members of the Marley family.
Mare Mare had already put on his mask, making it impossible to see his expression, but his voice was still quite low: "It seems that it will take a lot of effort to rebuild the Mare family."
"But who exactly is Elonmeier? He speaks in a mysterious way." Pollyanna asked casually.
"He is also a well-known criminal under the Golden Dynasty." Maremare recalled for a moment, "If I remember correctly, Elonmeier came from a small country called Och, but because the country was destroyed a long time ago, no one knows where Och is."
"Is he the King of Ohr?" I remembered that before the battle, Elonmei seemed to have persuaded us to surrender.
But Maremare shook his head: "How is it possible? According to historical records, the King of Och has already fallen on the battlefield. That Elonmeier is just a freak who hunts others and seizes the so-called bell beads."
······Every dynasty is built on blood and bones, and the Golden Dynasty is no exception.
And that Elonmeier was probably the resentful soul of those whose homeland was destroyed by the Golden Dynasty that conquered all directions and dominated the border areas.
——Next time we meet, let’s fight each other properly and bring him peace.
Lying in bed, I thought so.
Moreover, think about it carefully, if I can really repair the magic circle, there are still too many similar historical problems in this land waiting to be dealt with.
Not to mention the Mad Fire and the related wandering nations, there's also the scarlet corruption of Galidee, the desecration of the Volcano Mansion, oh, and the handling of the Dead Borns... each one of them is a big trouble.
Tuk-tuk-tuk——
The sudden knock on the door interrupted my wandering thoughts.
"Come in." I sat up from the bed. It was Millicent who knocked on my door.
"Zero, there's something I want to talk to you about."
"Huh? What's wrong?" It should be about the Holy Snowfield. Oh, the prerequisite is to enter the Royal City of Rodel first, find Teacher Evil Omen, and persuade him to unlock the seal of the forbidden area of the Snow Mountain... But I don’t have time to accompany Millicent now. Or, please ask Riley to take these two sisters to meet the King of Blessing?
Although Mr. Evil Omen made sharp comments on the rebellious golden brothers and sisters in the game, I guess that even if he is unwilling to open the seal, he should not make things too difficult for Millicent and Pollyanna.
——After all, the teacher's heart longs for love and peace, and these two sisters are, in a sense, the nieces of the evil teacher.
--what!
——Just keep Pollyanna’s mouth shut and don’t talk nonsense and make Teacher Evil Omen angry.
I quickly thought of my response and instructions and waited for Millicent to speak.
And she asked again: "Zero, you are going to the Volcano Residence next, right?"
"Ah."
"Then I'll go with you."
“…Huh?”
"I haven't asked Pollyanna about this yet. I'll ask her in the morning. However, although she may complain, she should come with us." Millicent had already figured out Pollyanna's temper and couldn't help but smile slightly.
But I was stunned.
——This, this is really an unexpected plot turn.
——The plot line of Volcano Mansion should have nothing to do with Millicent.
"Wait, wait a minute." I stopped appreciating Millicent's pretty smile and confirmed again, "Millicent, you said you want to accompany me to the Volcano Residence?!"
"Ah."
"Why?" I asked, "What's happening over there has nothing to do with you and Marenia. Besides, it's also very dangerous. Why..."
"After hearing about what Marlennia said, I couldn't help but think about it... I'm not as strong as that Valkyrie. After all, when I was tortured by the corruption disease and felt like dying, I wanted to end my life several times." Millicent's left thumb gently rubbed the elbow of her prosthetic hand, "But... it was you, Zero, who brought me light and stopped the scarlet corruption in my body from wriggling, so that I could embark on the journey and find my mission. Now, although I'm not skilled enough, with this prosthetic hand, I can finally use the sword to repay your kindness."
"······Hey, what's the matter with favors? There's no need to be so rigid, Millicent." I felt a little embarrassed.
"But you also need my strength. The road to the Volcano Mansion is not easy. There should be many powerful opponents like Elonmire..." Millicent said, and suddenly stood up slowly and walked towards the door quietly, "So, please consider it."
As soon as she said the word "down", she suddenly opened the door and looked outside.
"what happened?"
"Just now, there seemed to be someone."
"Is it Pollyanna?"
Millicent shook her head.
——That's right, there was no need for Pollyanna to be so sneaky. If she was discovered, she would definitely barge in openly... Or rather, when she heard that Millicent was going to accompany me to the Volcano Mansion, she should have come in and shouted out her thoughts.
——Who could that be?
"...Perhaps for you, Zero, you have helped many people and are accustomed to this." Millicent closed the door and said in a lower voice, "But for me, the power you bestowed may be like the hope that Michaela gave to Marlennia... Although saying this may make the two adults dissatisfied... But, Zero, if you need it, my sword will definitely be wielded by you, so please be sure to consider it."
After saying that, Millicent opened the door and left.
······Perhaps eager to try?
When we arrived at Sunshade City, Millicent also had the idea of going to the Volcano Residence with me, but at that time, she seemed a little hesitant and asked whether she needed "them" to accompany me.
But tonight, Mibao's attitude became tougher and she seemed determined. Even if Pollyanna didn't want to, she would follow me as long as I asked.
Oh, this is such a hard decision.
