Beginning as King of Elden

Chapter 136 Flying
"This key bears the magic coat of arms of the royal family of Kalia."

Li Lin handed the silver key to Teacher Se Lian.

"Do you know where this belongs?"

Cerlian just glanced at the key, and immediately had the answer.

"follow me."

Li Lin followed the teacher to a corner of the top room of the college.

Here, there is an old-fashioned box.

"Where did you get this key?" Selian asked curiously, "This is the key used by the members of the Kalia royal family to open the sealed important things."

"Well, a witch probably gave it to me."

Oops, Mr. Serlian seems to be called a witch too.

I don't know what I said clearly, and I don't know if it will cause her displeasure...

Li Lin squatted down and tried to insert the key into the lock.

The box was opened in response.

The knight turned his gaze to the center of the box.

This is a large ring in the image of a dark full moon.

Se Lian saw the warning written in magic on it, and she read it out.

"All characters are not allowed to take this object."

"All the loneliness on the other side of the night belongs only to me."

Li Lin couldn't help laughing.

In his previous life, the behavior of being inconsistent with his heart was called "tsundere".

Serlian lowered her head and saw the tenderness in her lover's smile.

He stretched out his fair and calloused right hand and firmly picked up the cold contract ring.

The moment he held the ring, Li Lin felt Lani's contract.

She is above the end of the Underworld.

I am coming.

The knight stood up without hesitation.

"Teacher, thank you for your help, I have to go."

"Hmm...Okay, but let's accept this sword first."

Teacher Selian handed him a magical long sword with a curved blade inlaid with luxurious pyroxene and decorated in the style of a golden tree.

"This is?"

"Pyroxene Klis is not a special treasure, it is just a weapon with some symbolic meaning."

"Symbolism?"

Se Lian smiled slightly and did not explain anything.

"Go get your princess back."

Li Lin looked at the teacher in surprise.

"…Thank you, I will."

The lover bowed deeply to her, and then left without looking back.

……

If I had known that he was here to get this thing, I should have just...

----------

Li Lin once again returned to the underground where he killed the Shadow of Calamity and took the elevator that led deeper.

There is an endless blood-colored lake in front of you, and the blood-like lake water is almost still.

The sweet smell of decay is nauseating.

This is the bank of a corrupt lake. On the other side of the lake, there is a huge building in a light red mist.

Just standing by the lake shore, he could feel slight discomfort.

In the rotten red lake water, there are countless turbid magazines floating up and down.

On the one hand, Li Lin couldn't feel any breath of life, on the other hand, he always felt that an extremely evil existence lived and bred in this lakeside.

This piece of river water must not be in direct contact with, how can we cross this piece of lakeside?
He stared into the distance.

Above the lake, there are a few broken platforms and stone pillars overgrown with fungus.

The knight lowered his eyes and calculated in his heart.

no problem.

He took off the light big goat armor on his body, leaving only his close-fitting underwear, and took a few steps back, slightly sinking his center of gravity.

(Host?)

Ashmi asked with some doubts.

The next moment, Li Lin started to sprint faster.

The knight's eyes were blank, and the world around him slowed down compared to his speed.

The world in my eyes is getting slower and slower, and the air is getting thicker and thicker.

The moment he rushed to the end of the land on the lake shore, he jumped up suddenly, as if he had escaped the gravity of the earth.

The air was as thick as liquid at this moment.

The knight stepped into the void!

This step turned out to be like stepping on the surface of the water, and the air was impacted like ripples by this step.

Li Lin kept stepping in the air, and the falling force after reaching the highest point of his jump was offset by the impact time and time again.

He paused briefly on several broken platforms and stone pillars to regain his breath. It only took him less than a minute to cross the wide blood-colored lake and reach the other side with huge buildings.

(Can humans fly without wings without using magic and prayer?)
Ashimi seemed to be shocked, and it wasn't until Li Lin landed on the other side that he murmured in his mind.

"It's not exactly flying." Li Lin put on his armor again.

"This technique also consumes a lot of physical energy."

This is a technique used by her teammates in the previous life strategy group, and she can use this ability to take three steps in the air.

In his previous life, his late stage bonus points were almost entirely devoted to strength, life and endurance, so he couldn't use this kind of skill.

And now, with all his might, he can keep his feet on the ground for as long as a minute, using a technique called "moon steps."

This is a huge church-like building. The stone used in the building looks old, and many places on it are even covered with red fungus.

"This is the cathedral that believes in scarlet corruption, right?"

(I think so)
Moving forward along the main road at the entrance of the church, the air was filled with a disgusting red mist.

"Can you change into a mask that filters the air for me to wear?"

Li Lin asked.

(I'm not made for this kind of work)
Even so, Ashmi still differentiated part of his body from the host's body, turned into a soft mask, and covered Li Lin's face.

"Thank you."

Li Lin said in a muffled voice.

(please don't be polite)

When he came to a tall temple, there were many scorpion-like thousand-legged soldiers with their backs facing him at the door, holding their spears high, surrounding the temple, as if they were worshiping and sacrificing something.

There are a lot of...

(please let me help you)
Silver teardrops separated from his body and fell to his side, becoming exactly like him.

Well, his time is precious.

Go straight up.

He first cooperated with Miss Tears and sent out [Black Night Comet] and [Flame Slash], then inserted the sword of night and fire back, pulled out the long teeth of the hunting dog and the sea of ​​corpses, and rushed directly.

The worms all over the sky are indeed annoying, but Miss Teardrop's body seems to be rougher and thicker than his own, which helped him resist the huge amount of worms that was difficult to dodge several times.

With Ashmi's help, it didn't take long for Li Lin to clean up the gnat soldiers guarding in front of the temple.

"You have also become stronger."

(I will become stronger as the host becomes stronger)
Ashmi who returned to his body said.

Li Lin shook his head.

"I have not become stronger. I have even become a little bit weaker due to my condition. It is you who have really become stronger. I mean at the conscious level."

(…Thank you for your praise, I will continue to work hard)
Ashmi said shyly, feeling a little uncomfortable.
