When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

The visit of the two witch archbishops was naturally ill-intentioned.

Among them, the Archbishop of Gluttony seemed to be driven by some inexplicable "appetite", showing strong aggressiveness and eager to devour something.

The Archbishop of Sin named Greed was even more difficult to reason with and could be easily angered during negotiations.

Therefore, after several conversations, the two Archbishops of Sin simultaneously launched an attack on everyone in the mansion.

Since there were only two enemies, Li Shanren did not take action and directly handed them over to Bionic Teardrop and Black Knife Di Xi to deal with them respectively.

The Archbishop of Gluttony is very fast and aggressive, and the equally agile Di Xi is responsible for dealing with him.

Although Black Blade Di Xi remained invisible, Gluttony seemed to have some kind of perception ability and could accurately determine Di Xi's location.

During the battle, he constantly attacked Di Xi with extreme words, as if trying to get Di Xi's name out.

Unfortunately, as a taciturn black knife assassin, Di Xi only had eyes for fighting and completely ignored Gluttony's words.

The two sides fought fiercely in front of the open space of the mansion.

On the other hand, the Archbishop of Greed was a bit tricky.

After several battles, the Bionic Teardrop discovered that the Archbishop of Greed seemed to be completely immune to any attack, whether it was magic or physical, and none of them could hurt him.

His means of attack was also very simple, just shooting out stones at extremely high speeds, but they were extremely powerful, and he could even destroy a house in the mansion with just one blow.

Li Shanren, who was watching the battle, quickly noticed this. He realized that the Archbishop of Greed seemed to have some kind of power similar to "invincibility".

Therefore, he began to talk to the Archbishop of Greed, who seemed to have an underdeveloped mind. After a few words, that guy proudly told Li Shanren that his power was to be invincible and to keep things absolutely still.

Therefore, nothing can hurt him.

This almost unsolvable ability made Li Shanren feel very difficult.

After pondering for a moment, he decisively let Black Blade Di Xi and Bionic Teardrop exchange opponents.

The Greedy Priest seemed to be irritated. He thought that Li Shanren's interference in the battle was very rude, so he shifted his target of attack to Li Shanren.

Facing the high-speed stones thrown by the Greedy Priest, Li Shanren took out a shield equipped with the combat skill "Invincible".

Use "invincible" to fight "invincible".

Whenever such a powerful stone came in front of Li Shanren, he would activate his combat skills, enter a brief invincible state, and make the attacks of the Greedy Priest fail.

When the Greedy Priest was concentrating on killing Li Shanren, Black Knife Di Xi quietly appeared behind him and then launched the most powerful Destined Death Fighting Skill.

The sky was filled with dark red flames like gorgeous flowers in full bloom, suddenly blossoming with the Archbishop of Greed as the core. Countless blades of destined death pierced through his body mercilessly. The absolute stillness that he was so proud of was meaningless in front of the dark red flames that could burn the soul.

After all, it is his body that is absolutely still. I am afraid that even a true God does not have the means to keep the soul absolutely still while allowing people to maintain the ability to think and move.

Moreover, even the noble gods cannot resist the flames of this destined death, which is a weapon for killing gods.

In just a moment, the soul of the Archbishop of Greed was burned out. At the moment of his death, he did not even realize that he was dead, and a twisted anger still remained on his face.

Until his body tumbled to the ground.

On the other side, Bionic Teardrop took advantage of the moment when the Archbishop of Gluttony pounced on him and silently took out an exquisite crystal bottle and threw it into the other's mouth.

The bottle contained the puppet potion of Professor Selvis of the Borderland Magic. After drinking it, others could be made into puppet-shaped ashes.

The Archbishop of Gluttony was completely unaware of this. With the power in his hands, he thought he could devour everything. However, after casually biting through Servis' potion, he fell directly to the ground and fell into a coma.

From then on, the three Archbishops of Sin who attacked the mansion were almost wiped out by Li Shanren alone.

Although most of the time, I rely on the power of Bionic Teardrops and Black Blade Di Xi...

Li Shanren picked up the unconscious Gluttony. He planned to take this guy back to Byron Kingworth, and then study Selvis' experimental notes to see how to make this guy into a puppet.

Unfortunately, if he had a choice, he would rather turn the Archbishop of Greed into a puppet.

After all, the opponent's ability is too abnormal. If he is not destined to die, it would be difficult to deal with him.

His weakness lies in his soul. If he is made into a puppet with only a soul, under the protection of the soul-summoning bell, he will not be afraid of any damage to his soul, and he will be able to become a super fighter comparable to Bionic Teardrop and Di Xi.

However, this guy's power made Li Shanren feel that the potion might not be effective in his body, and it would be difficult to trick him into drinking the potion on his own initiative, so he had to give up.

After resolving the crisis at the mansion, Lee Sun-in told Lai Yue-suba that it was time to leave and that he should follow him to Byron Kingworth for further studies.

Subaru Natsuki could only bid farewell to everyone reluctantly. During this process, he also resolved the previous estrangement with Emilia. He promised everyone in the mansion that he would definitely come back in the future.

As it was getting dark, Li Shanren stayed in the mansion for one night. The next day, he left with Subaru Natsuki and Rem who insisted on coming with him.

The three of them first returned to the royal capital.

Li Shanren temporarily settled the two of them in a hotel, and then secretly went to look for Ezio who was carrying out a mission in the royal capital.

Ezio was with the Royal Capital Assassin Arno, and Li Shanren learned about the latest developments from them.

Later, they discovered that Arno had switched to the Assassin's Brotherhood, and the two were discussing how to bring more assassins from the Royal Capital Assassin's Resistance into the Brotherhood.

Because they found that the top leaders of the Royal Capital Assassin's Resistance Society had forgotten their original mission and gradually began to turn the Resistance Society into a utilitarian assassin organization that accepted various assassination missions, and could no longer return to the original track.

After learning about these things, Li Shanren left them a sum of activity funds and several new communication scrolls, asking them to keep in touch with Byron Kingworth at all times, and then left.

Half a day later, Li Shanren brought Subaru Laiyue and Rem back to Byron Kingworth through the teleportation array.

He first took the two back to the lakeside manor and handed them over to Svana for arrangements, then returned to his cabin and plunged into the exploration of the border area.

In the next few days, while Li Shanren explored the border area, he arranged for Lai Yue Subaru and Rem to enter the Periclen Academy, which was known for training outstanding politicians and knights.

This was all thanks to the relationship with Tifa's master who taught in the academy. Otherwise, with Subaru Natsuki's qualifications, it would be almost impossible for him to enter such an academy.

Li Shanren personally sent the two of them to school, and told them to behave themselves in the academy, saying that students there were either sons of wealthy businessmen or descendants of aristocrats, and not to cause trouble, and then he just left it alone.

Anyway, Tifa is also studying in the academy, so just let Tifa help keep an eye on it.

After dealing with these trivial matters, Li Shanren devoted himself completely to the exploration of the border area.

In the following month, he entered the royal city of Rodel at the border, completed the exploration of the entire royal city, and defeated Mongot, the king of Rodel who was guarding the royal city, also known as the "King of Evil Omens".

This King of Evil Omens was none other than the evil demon "Markit" who had once stopped Li Shanren at the gate of Stonewell City. The King of Evil Omens hated the characteristics of being the son of evil omen, but was extremely loyal to the Golden Law.

As such, he would go out hunting down traitors who intended to betray the Golden Rule, adopting the alias "Markit" in the process.

The place where Mongget was located was the foot of the golden tree, and Li Shanren had since reached an agreement to bring Melina to the foot of the golden tree.

If you want to become the King of Elden, you must enter the Golden Tree and repair the Elden Ring inside.

However, ever since the Elden Ring was broken, the gate to the entrance of the Golden Tree has been covered with "thorns of rejection", which need to be burned with a special flame before entering.

Coming to the foot of the golden tree, Melina realized her true mission: "Those who walk with fire will one day meet their destined death."

On the top of a distant snow-capped mountain, there is a melting pot left by the giants, but it needs some kind of fire to ignite it in order for the golden tree to burn.

And Melina is that special "spark".

However, she did not tell Li Shanren about this, but asked Li Shanren to take her to the Giant's Furnace on the top of the snow mountain again.

But Li Shanren already knew Melina's fate, and he did not intend to use Melina to ignite the golden tree.

He had another plan in mind.

With the exploration of the royal city of Rodel completed, Li Shanren finally obtained the "Original Golden Law" he had longed for. This book records two powerful prayer techniques of golden fundamentalism, one is called "the principle of causality" and the other is called "the principle of regression".

To learn these two prayers, however, what is needed is not faith but intelligence.

This seems to indicate that the root of the Golden Rule is not a fanatical belief, but a kind of scientific and rational thought.

However, during the execution process, it seemed to have caused deviations, or even a complete departure from the original nature of the law, which ultimately led to the collapse of the border area.

Perhaps this is why the Elden Ring forged by Queen Marika is imperfect.

At the border, there is a special faded person. He has no name, a gaunt body, and always wears a golden mask that looks like a sunflower on his face. Therefore, people also call him "Golden Mask".

The Golden Mask seemed to have sensed the imperfections of the Golden Rule, and so he traveled throughout the borderland, trying to find a way to perfect the law.

Li Shanren also visited this scholar, but he was always silent, staring at the golden tree in thought, and had no response to the outside world.

While exploring the royal city, Lee Sun-in also uncovers secrets about Queen Marika and her second king, Radagon, of Elden.

The secret is quite shocking.

"Malika is Radhagun."

In front of a statue in the royal city, after using the principle of the tropics, such hidden words appeared on the ground. It seemed that after someone discovered this secret, they couldn't help but engrave it here, but were afraid of being discovered, so they used magic to cover it up.

Malika is Radagan... In fact, Li Shanren already knew this secret.

They are two personalities with two sides of the same coin, being both God and the King of Elden.

This should be unprecedented in the long history of the border area.

If Marika and Radagon had no disagreement, He could be called the true "God-King of Elden".

But unfortunately, Malika and her personality named "Radagan" actually have great differences, and later on they even reach the point of being incompatible.

The biggest difference between the two gods is that Marika does not want to be bound by the Golden Rule. Perhaps she also realizes the imperfection of the Golden Rule, but Radagon is the "loyal dog" of the Golden Rule and faithfully upholds the law.

It can be said that the breaking of the Elden Ring was also the cause of the conflict between the two gods.

The Golden Rule is imperfect, and no matter how it is fixed, it will always be flawed.
