Chapter 248 Do you still want to be an escaped coward?
"enough!"
Hawkwood, who was dragged towards the bonfire by Xia Yu, grabbed the door frame with both hands and used force to free his feet.
"If you want to challenge King Xin, then go ahead and challenge him. It has nothing to do with me anyway."
Hawkwood got up from the ground, glanced at Xia Yu gloomily, hunched over and walked towards the bar again.
"Are you still going to be a coward who gets away?"
At this moment, Xia Yu's cold voice came. Upon hearing this, Hawkwood trembled and did not look back.
"The captain of the undead team is really pathetic. He actually let a coward like you join the undead team. No wonder the undead team refused to spread the fire again and abandoned the world."
"What do you know!!"
Faced with this merciless ridicule, Hawkwood turned his head sharply, his eyes were bloodshot, and he roared in a hoarse voice.
"Do you know what it feels like when fire burns your body? What do you know about the pain that goes deep into your soul!!"
"The world has become like this, what can we change? Even if the fire transmission is successful this time, what about next time! This shabby world..."
As he spoke, Hawkwood knelt down weakly, clenched his fists with both hands and hammered the ground, as if he was talking to Xia Yu, or complaining to someone.
"Why would you rather die than surrender? It is obvious that no matter how hard you try, the world will not get better. It is obvious that even if you do nothing, the world will not get worse."
"Why... you would rather fight to the death than give up that impossible dream..."
Hawkwood's voice was choked. He hated himself for escaping, but he hated this damn world even more. This world is hopeless. Why do those idiots still work hard for it...
Xia Yu silently stood aside and looked at the incompetent and furious Hawkwood. He could not comfort others with kind words, nor could he empathize with and understand the other person's pain. Even his knowledge of Hawkwood and the Undead Team was all he had learned online.
I saw it in the analysis post of a spiritualist.
But now that he is here, he will not let the plot develop towards the original work. What he can do is take Hawkwood to inherit the last wish of the Undead Team.
After Hawkwood's hysterical complaints slowed down, Xia Yu stepped forward and extended his hand to him.
"Since you can't figure it out, go and see for yourself. The answer is right there."
Looking at Xia Yu's outstretched hand, Hawkwood felt a little dazed. He vaguely remembered that deep in his already blurry memory, there was also such a hand reaching out to him.
‘Since I don’t have a destination, should I join the Immortal Team? Although the requirements for joining the team are very strict.’
Recalling what the captain had said to him and Xia Yu's outstretched hand, Hawkwood's already discouraged and stagnant heart began to waver again.
"The pointed iron helmet that is regarded as an ominous omen by the world is actually worn on the head to protect more people. Even if it is not understood, it will not be explained. This is the Undead Team, the French Undead Team!"
While Hawkwood murmured, he grabbed Xia Yu's outstretched hand and used his strength to pull himself up.
"Although I still can't figure it out, I don't want to escape anymore!"
Looking at Hawkwood's confused but firm eyes, Xia Yu smiled.
Sure enough, although Hawkwood always looks discouraged, he is still unwilling to give in, otherwise he would not choose to pursue the power of the ancient dragon after the protagonist Ashes defeated the Undead Team.
Fortunately, because of his words, Hawkwood agreed to go to France Fortress. If he still didn't agree, then he would have to use some strong methods.
Because Hawkwood is an immortal who has been burned once, he also became ashes, and ashes can be transported at a lit bonfire.
Hawkwood, who chose to go to Flan Fortress with Xia Yu, directly used the campfire at the sacrificial site to teleport to Flan Fortress.
As the flames rose, Xia Yu and Hawkwood disappeared into the flames of the campfire.
Fran Fortress, fortress ruins.
The originally grand Farlan Fortress now only has ruins mired in a poisonous swamp. Broken buildings and filthy forests have become the only scenery here.
In every poisonous swamp, there are lumps of black, sticky flesh wandering around, which are slugs infected by the overflowing abyss.
These slugs are the most common creatures in the poisonous swamp, and deep in the forest, there are half-human, half-animal mutated creatures with twisted hard horns on their heads and bodies covered with wild beast hair.
Beside the bonfire, Hawkwood stood there silently, with pain in his eyes.
Returning to this sad place again, everything familiar brought back endless memories for him.
He still remembers the days when Fran Fortress was first established. At that time, they suppressed the abyss while honing their sword skills.
If I hadn't been selected as the salary king, then nothing here would have happened...
But if there is no salary king, then the world will also fall into darkness. The reason is all the world’s fault!
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Brother Cangxin looking uncomfortable, Xia Yu patted his shoulder and asked.
"nothing."
Hawkwood shook his head and tightened the Farlan sword and shield in his hands. Although he decided to come back here again, he still could not put down the shield.
Seeing this, Xia Yu raised his eyebrows and had no intention of saying anything else.
"Farlan's undead team has a unique test to join the team. The fires of the three altars in the fortress need to be extinguished, so that the door to the wolf's blood will be opened."
Hawkwood looked at the three towering altars in the distance and said.
"If you want to challenge the Undead Team, you need to unlock the seal of the entrance first. I know where the seal is, come with me."
"etc."
Xia Yu suddenly called out to Hawkwood who was about to take a step forward. Under Hawkwood's confused gaze, Xia Yu spread his hands and said easily.
"I have unlocked the seal and opened the door. Now we can just go find the undead team. By the way, does this count as me joining the team?"
Hawkwood was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he nodded seriously.
"As long as you pass the test to join the team and meet Old Wolf Fran again, you will be considered to have joined the undead team. However... if you want to truly join the team, you must have the consent of the captain."
Hearing this, Xia Yu nodded thoughtfully and didn't ask any more questions.
Do you only need to meet Old Fran Wolf instead of drinking wolf blood? It seems that Old Fran Wolf's wolf blood, or his soul, has been exhausted.
I don’t know if it can be analyzed after the souls of all the members of the undead team are merged into the souls of wolf blood. If it can, then the undead team can be resurrected.
After all, the firewood of the King of Fire is not equal to the soul. The qualification of the Immortal Team to become the King of Fire is the wolf blood.
In the game, the firewood and the soul of the King of Xin are also two parts. Players can smelt the soul of the King of Xin to obtain weapons, and the firewood will not disappear.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu turned his head and looked towards the far side of the poisonous swamp, where was the huge stone door that had been opened.
"Let's go, let us give the undead team final relief."
