Overlord Wolnir, the War Ends
Overlord Wolnir
From Dark Souls III, he is the final boss of the Catacombs of Carthus, guarded by the Farron Undead Legion.
In the past, when many kings reigned, the gods equally bestowed crowns upon them.
As a member of the royal family, Wolnir conquered various countries and led his kingdom of Carthus to destroy other crowns. When only his crown remained, the "Overlord" was born.
But as they ascend to the pinnacle of power, destruction follows.
He began exploring a forbidden power called the "Abyss." Regardless of his true purpose, he ended up going too far. The forbidden power kept pulling him into the abyss, and he was only able to escape being swallowed by it by using Sacred Relic obtained from killing clergy. He eked out a living in the Catacombs and was later suppressed by the Farron Undead Legion.
It is said that he built the Catacombs to obtain the power of the ancient gods, and he craved to inherit the power of the god known as "Nite the Tomb King" and become the "last dead." Unfortunately, his grand ambition was destroyed by the Undead Legion that came smelling the abyss before it could be realized.
Wolnir, who never believed in God throughout his life, cowered in the abyss at the end, clutching the bracelet and holy sword he had stolen from the clergy, praying to be saved.
This is a pitiful and ironic character. You don't even need to defeat him; just break the bracelet, and he will be swallowed by the abyss in despair.
But that's in Yugi.
If we summon the Overlord Wolnir to the mortal world...
The dark abyss has eroded the ground completely, and there are even signs that it is spreading towards the Corruption Lake.
Connected to the abyss is the Overlord Wolnir.
A colossal skeletal body stood majestically on the earth, its upper body alone exuding power. Atop its grotesque skull was a crown symbolizing ultimate dominance. The forces of death and the abyss intertwined and clashed with each other, constantly destroying and regenerating. The bracelets emitted a pure light, suppressing the dark forces within.
Anyone who has seen the campfire footage here will be surprised to find that Overlord Wolnir bears a striking resemblance to Gravemaster Nit. Although Wolnir's death power is far inferior to Gravemaster Nit, it is still a genuine force.
His size is several times larger than in the Yugi; even the Chimera Mother is like an underdeveloped elementary school student compared to him.
Beside the Overlord, everyone else will seem insignificant!
"."
Overlord Wolnir slowly turned his head, his empty eye sockets meeting those of the Chimera Mother and Jia Nage behind her.
Trembling, trembling, and still trembling.
Aside from trembling, Jia Nage was at a loss for how to react.
Unlike the heart-wrenching pain he felt upon seeing the Corruption Lake, he was now more in a state of "giving up thinking," his mind completely filled with the magnificent body before him.
A variety of emotions welled up: fear, doubt, confusion, and reverence.
He feared the abyss, feared the power of Overlord Wolnir. In his eyes, Wolnir was not a pitiful man clinging to life, but a king who ruled over death.
The question is why the Zane Dungeon could summon such a powerful being, one that would make even a general in the Demon King's army kneel before, and perhaps even the Four Heavenly Kings.
What's puzzling is that I can't understand where the Spirit Power of the Zane Dungeon comes from. Even a dungeon with level four authority couldn't possibly summon such a powerful monster, no, a demon king.
Respect was the emotion he felt the moment he saw the Overlord Wolnir. He couldn't help but feel reverence for this Overlord, and the idea of kneeling down was already brewing in his mind.
Before the Overlord, he was like an ant.
Damn it, how could I possibly fight back? Jia Nage's knees buckled, and he knelt on the ground. How could he possibly have the thought of fighting back then!
He looked at the Chimera Mother and suddenly felt a sense of desolation.
Even if you gave him ten Chimera Mother, he still couldn't defeat the great being before him. It's laughable that he had previously boasted that he wouldn't be satisfied unless he was killed by a monster.
Jia Nage forced a smile and said tremblingly, "Can we surrender and lose half?"
Right now? You're not kidding, are you?
The silence of the Zane Dungeon terrified him. Upon reflection, he realized that he had not received any messages from Gong Qiying since the battle began.
He arrogantly assumed the other party was afraid, but now he realizes that perhaps they didn't even take him seriously.
"Haha." Jia Nage couldn't help but laugh, his expression blank.
Overlord Wolnir raised his massive skeletal arm, but he did not use either the power of death or the abyss.
"Boom!"
With his overwhelming size, he pinned Chimera Mother to the ground as if swatting an insect.
The tentacles waved frantically beneath the bones, desperately trying to resist, but it was all in vain.
Jia Nage abandoned his thought process, and the surviving swarm obeyed the command of the Chimera Mother, charging suicidally towards Wolnir.
The latter exhaled black Miasma Mist, and any Chimera Bug that came into contact with the mist were instantly killed, falling to the ground like raindrops. The tiny insects were insignificant under the power of death.
The Carthus Warrior, now reduced to skeletons, fell from the Overlord's body. These Bloodlust Warrior, skilled in slaughter, had come to protect their king, but by the time they rose, all their enemies were dead.
They drew their swords and looked around, feeling lost and confused. Finally, feeling bored, they scratched their heads.
The overlord of death loomed behind the black mist, his massive body exerting immense pressure on every visitor. His Warrior rose from their long slumber, yearning to once again wield their blood-soaked scimitars.
In that instant, the Kingdom of Carthus seemed to have come back to life!
The Carthus Warrior found a new target; they looked at Jia Nage and excitedly rushed towards him.
"No, no, don't come any closer!"
In the chaos, Jia Nage activated another of his privileges, called "Shunshin," which allows him to shrink the distance in the dungeon and quickly traverse the map, similar to a lower-level version of Gong Qiying's "Teleport."
All he wanted now was to escape, anywhere would do, as long as he could get away from the Carthus Warrior!
But he forgot one thing: the land corrupted by the abyss was still within his Shunshin range, and it was also the furthest point from the Carthus Warrior.
"Ah!"
As Jia Nage happily left the monster, he found himself sinking.
No, it's not sinking, but being dragged into the abyss into that bottomless darkness.
"No, no, no! Help! Help me!"
Without the protection of the Sacred Relic, the abyss happily devoured its prey, and Jia Nage screamed madly in despair.
"I surrender, I surrender! I am willing to submit—"
Just before he was about to be completely swallowed up, he raised his head and found that Overlord Wolnir was also looking at him.
There seemed to be a sense of pity in the Overlord's empty eye sockets.
Before Jia Nage could even have a question, the abyss crept onto his face.
He couldn't even let out a scream; he was pulled into the abyss by an irresistible force!
He could no longer experience any emotional fluctuations.
The small piece of abyss that had swallowed him writhed for a while before returning to calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
The Chimera Mother and her swarm had long since turned into corpses under the power of death, and were even transforming into empty shells. The Black Mud completely eroded the Black Mud of the Calamity Nest Dungeon, and then turned its attention to the Scarlet Corruption in the Corruption Lake.
Overlord Wolnir stood there quietly.
The war is over
[Victory has been achieved in the Zane Dungeon!]
When Gong Qiying saw this line of text appear before his eyes, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Just as he had guessed, the strength of the dungeons in the native world was somewhat lacking.
Perhaps in dungeons of the same level, Sion is invincible!
Joy welled up inside him. This overwhelming victory wasn't enough to make him cheer, but it still lifted his spirits.
[The Calamity Nest Dungeon are yours to plunder!]
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the text prompts from the dungeon had become more respectful, and they had always addressed him as "you" before.
This dungeon seems to discriminate based on who it serves.
But before looting, Gong Qiying had other matters to attend to.
"Bang bang bang!"
The gates of the Farron Keep were being pounded on frantically, not by an external enemy, but by forces from within.
It was the Farron Undead Legion; he was pounding on the door, clearly desperate to get out.
"Is this a reaction to Overlord Wolnir?"
Gong Qiying watched this scene with great interest, Overlord Wolnir outside also looked towards Farron Keep and noticed the presence of the Farron Undead Legion.
But his creator was also there, so he couldn't do anything offensive and just stayed quietly.
The Farron Undead Legion and Overlord Wolnir are mortal enemies, but it was unexpected that these two creations of the dungeon would fight each other. This was the first time Gong Qiying had ever witnessed such a scene.
He was absolutely certain that the monsters he created had no personality.
The reason why the Soul Eater and Ghrū fought in Farron Keep was because he deliberately designed it that way.
However, starting from Rank B, monsters seem to react to external stimuli in ways other than attacking, just like the Undead Legion deliberately held back and gave Da Er a few pointers.
It was truly unexpected that monsters belonging to different factions would now be hostile to each other.
"It's similar to an obsession, or a bodily instinct."
Gong Qiying shook his head, waved his hand to retrieve Overlord Wolnir and his Abyss, and the Farron Undead Legion finally quieted down.
No matter how the monsters change, as the city lord, he has the highest authority over them. He can summon them whenever he wants, recycle them whenever he wants, and control their behavior however he wants.
Don't worry about some Iribus-like thing coming out of the Zane Dungeon; he doesn't want to sit on a golden toilet anyway.
Having resolved this issue, Gong Qiying then turned his attention back to the Calamity Nest Dungeon.
After this battle, he will gain access to all the Spirit Power of the Calamity Nest Dungeon and will have to choose between ownership and authority over it; he can only choose one.
Information about these matters was being presented to Gong Qiying one by one.
The Spirit Power reserves of the Calamity Nest Dungeon, its location and surrounding geographical information, including whether there are any intelligent life settlements nearby, and the population flow over the past month, etc.
Gong Qiying's brows furrowed deeper the more he looked.
"No wonder Jia Nage wanted to invade me. Who could live in such a garbage territory?"
The Spirit Power reserves in the Calamity Nest Dungeon are pitifully low, and the surrounding area is deserted with virtually no visitors recently.
If left unattended, the Calamity Nest Dungeon will slowly die.
There are no intelligent creatures within a hundred miles, and the vicinity of the Calamity Nest Dungeon is also home to numerous dangerous monster lairs and Swamp, making it a veritable no-man's land.
In that instant, his disdain for the Calamity Nest Dungeon reached its peak.
He could manage this garbage territory, but it would be time-consuming, laborious, and ultimately not worth the effort.
Furthermore, there's a Val Dungeon waiting to be built; trying to do too much at once will only lead to failure.
Gong Qiying looked at the authority that Jia Nage had.
[Permission 1: Eugenics - Monsters in the dungeon have a very low probability of giving birth to more powerful offspring, and these offspring will be automatically added to the list of Available Monster.]
It seems like a trait specifically designed for Chimera Bug, so PASS.
[Permission 2: Shunshin]
After reading it, Gong Qiying waved his hand and skipped over it.
[Permission 3: Gigantification. The bodies of monsters and city lords will grow Megamorph as their strength increases. Their strength can be enhanced by forcibly compressing their size.]
"What kind of garbage is this?"
His facial muscles were twitching. Neither the Calamity Nest Dungeon itself nor the access was of any interest to him. Was he going to lose money in this battle?
Clinging to his last hope, he looked at Authority Level 4.
[Permission 4: A World You Can't Leave Without Victory]
"Huh?"
"This is interesting."
