Underground Jail Observations
"What is meant by 'the Dark Moon Blade of the Invaders'?"
In Lake Liurnia, Lu Lu Wo met Bei Er Tuo, who had been waiting for her there, at the inn, where he told her everything that had happened recently.
"While I was spending all my time in the Irithyll Underground Jail, how come this Zane Dungeon has pulled off so many big stunts? The doomed little boy? The Dark Moon Blade yearning for ears?"
"Damn it, no wonder I've been getting hacked so many times these past few days! Leon, Fingel, you've really ruined my life!"
Thinking about her miserable experience in the Underground Jail, Lu Lu Wo had an urge to strangle Leon!
You ask why I don't pinch Fingel?
"Captain, why did you come out alone? Where are Ta Mi and the others?" Bei Er Tuo asked.
Lu Lu Wo sighed dejectedly, her entire demeanor seemingly lifeless, and said:
"We were invaded too many times, and then a heavyweight appeared, and then we encountered a monster tide, so everyone got separated, and I barely managed to escape."
Bei Er Tuo looked on in astonishment. What kind of invaders could have scattered Lu Lu Wo's team?
"It's Fingel from the Hasawi Squad, the gold-level one," Lu Lu Wo said through gritted teeth.
Well, that's not surprising then.
Wait, something still seems off.
Bei Er Tuo suddenly remembered something and lowered his voice to ask quietly, "Wasn't that Brave, Elsa, who was using the alias Gers, with you, Captain? Why was she attacked by Fingel?"
"Keep your voice down. I've only told you this." Lu Lu Wo tapped the table. "No matter why Gers uses a pseudonym, we can't let it slip through our fingers. Don't ruin their plans."
As a seasoned intelligence expert who had been in Bede City for quite some time, Lu Lu Wo recognized Elsa's true identity the moment she met her.
However, spreading rumors everywhere would do her no good and would only provoke the other party's resentment, so she simply observed the other party's actions silently.
"Oh," Bei Er Tuo nodded, "So why couldn't she beat Fingel?"
"I get angry as soon as you mention this."
Lu Lu Wo took out the Image Stone and tossed it to Bei Er Tuo. Berto opened it and looked inside. The scene inside was pitch black, clearly resembling the Underground Jail of Irithyll.
The filming must have been quite chaotic, as the footage was constantly shaking, creating a uniquely eerie atmosphere in that environment.
The scene moves forward, slowly turning a corner, and suddenly, a pair of red lights shine in the depths of darkness, followed by the sizzling sound of a red-hot branding iron.
"Hiss!"
Bei Er Tuo suddenly leaned back, and the image on the Image Stone was frozen in that instant.
The image freezes on the moment when the eyes of the [Irithyll Jailer] meet.
"I have a strange feeling, Captain," Bei Er Tuo quickly turned off the Image Stone. "Just looking at it gives me the illusion that my life force is rapidly draining away. Is this the monster you mentioned in your letter that indiscriminately steals life force?"
"That's right. No magic can stop it or avoid it. No matter how strong a person is, they can't withstand it head-on, not even Gers."
The Irithyll Jailer is a rather annoying enemy in Dark Souls III. Its unique feature is that once it sees you, your maximum health will rapidly decrease until it reaches its lowest point.
When this happens in another world, it means that one's life force is rapidly draining away until the body is as powerless as a dying old man.
At this point, Lu Lu Wo's expression changed, and she said:
"It's all Fingel's fault. We were using invisibility to get past a group of jailers. I had a feeling that if we got past them we could find the bottom of the prison, but then that Fingel guy infiltrated us and used 'Invisibility Invalidate' on us."
"You absolutely cannot imagine what it feels like to be stared at by a dozen prison guards at the same time!"
Lu Lu Wo couldn't help but hug her shoulders when she thought of that scene.
The gazes of the dozen or so prison guards overlapped, and their life force was almost instantly drained away.
Even Elsa was only able to withstand the attacks for a little longer than Lu Lu Wo and the others because she had stronger vitality, but this "longer" was actually only a few seconds.
The Irithyll Jailer was just as disgusting to Lu Lu Wo as the Curse Frog she had encountered at first sight; she hated mechanical monsters the most.
Later, Fingel took their heads one by one, leaving them with only a sliver of health, looking as content as if he were harvesting vegetables on a farm!
Lu Lu Wo had never felt such humiliation!
But if she were to fight Fingel in a real fight, she simply wouldn't stand a chance.
Power, she craves power now!
There's one more thing I have to mention.
When adventurers head to Irithyll and swear the Dark Moon Blade oath, they often pinch the Blue Eye Orb on the spot; about 200 out of 300 people will do this.
So, who is the "big villain" who is in Irithyll and has invaded the most times?
Lu Lu Wo: It is I.
"Let's not talk about this anymore; it will only upset me."
She took a big gulp of the beer she had just bought and said, "I told you to write it down. I've pretty much found out all the information about the Irithyll Underground Jail."
How could Lu Lu Wo discover the map to Underground Jail while being invaded more than twenty times a day on average? She's practically a superhuman!
Lu Lu Wo described the map they had explored in detail, as well as the traps and monsters along the way, and the various characteristics of the monsters.
But at the end, she suddenly asked:
"You just said that there are more and more Oathsworn to the Dark Moon Blade, right? And because Gwyndolin's voice can be heard at the Dark Moon Altar, that god's popularity is rising rapidly?"
Lu Lu Wo suddenly laughed.
"I discovered a unique cell in the most secluded and hidden part of the Underground Jail, the cell that Yorshka used to be in."
"Yorshka. Is this the name of the church that made the oath of the Dark Moon Blade? Did such a person really exist?"
"That's right, and she is also the second Grand Master of the Dark Moon Knight Order, Gwyndolin is the first."
Lu Lu Wo's smile widened even more as she said:
"The Underground Jail was where Pontiff Sulyvahn imprisoned those who opposed him, since Yorshka was once imprisoned here."
"And what about Gwyndolin?"
Bei Er Tuo's breathing suddenly became rapid. "Captain, you mean if this news gets out, the Dark Moon Blade will go wild!"
"Calm down. The covenant Dark Moon Blade has only been around for a short time. People haven't had time to develop a deeper affection for the covenant and Gwyndolin yet. And I can assure you that I am the only one who knows this information right now."
Lu Lu Wo was fiddling with the chess pieces on the table; she and Bei Er Tuo had just been playing chess to pass the time.
"The ultimate leader of Irithyll is very likely Sulyvahn. Once this information is released, it will definitely drive adventurers crazy and make them want to kill Sulyvahn. Let's wait until the Dark Moon Blade has more members and is more popular before releasing the news. Then we'll have something fun to watch."
"Captain is brilliant!" Bei Er Tuo praised.
"Heh heh, those Dark Moon Blade messed with me, so I'll use this news to mess with their mentality too." Lu Lu Wo let out a villainous laugh that sent chills down everyone's spine.
After she finished delivering the most important information, it was Bei Er Tuo's turn to report on the situation outside, such as the latest progress of the exploration of Irithyll.
Because of the "Little Boy Rescue Project," the adventurers who entered Irithyll have been busy trying out various ways to save the little boy, and have neglected to explore the map.
Lu Lu Wo looked at the "rescue methods" summarized by Bei Er Tuo and showed a frightened expression.
"This isn't a way to save him, it's just a hundred ways for the little boy to die!"
She put down the paper, rubbed her temples, and said, "However, I'm relieved to see that everyone's exploration progress is about the same."
"Should we continue exploring the Underground Jail or return to the surface?" Bei Er Tuo asked.
"I don't want to go into that dark place again this year," Lu Lu Wo shivered violently. "Go back to the surface. I have a feeling that after going through the graveyard path, I will soon meet the final boss of this area."
"Are we going to try and take down the leader before everyone else this time?"
Lu Lu Wo patted Bei Er Tuo on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Bei Er Tuo, I've only recently come to understand something."
"Please speak."
"I've noticed that the title 'first to see the leader' sounds impressive, as if it represents a significant lead in exploration progress, far surpassing ordinary people, but in reality..."
"In reality, this title simply means 'the first people to be brutally beaten by the boss'!"
"I'm tired. I don't want to be beaten like a dog by a complete stranger anymore. I'm going to rest from today onwards!"
Bei Er Tuo didn't know what to say. He never expected that Lu Lu Wo, who was always so enthusiastic about exploring dungeons, would have such a disheartening day.
"But don't worry, I've already found a scapegoat. He'll help us witness the ultimate boss's power."
"Who is it?" Bei Er Tuo couldn't help but ask.
Lu Lu Wo chuckled and said:
"Naturally, it's Gers's superior, that White Eagle who's currently making waves in the Leyndell — Iliphis."
The necessary information has been given to Elsa, and Lu Lu Wo specifically instructed that this information could be shared with Iliphis.
Given this girl's personality, I'm afraid the Light Eagle Legion will be sending troops to Irithyll tomorrow.
Incidentally, Lu Lu Wo's actions were not well-intentioned.
She still harbored hostility towards those high and mighty people, but this guy Iliphis, gave her a sophisticated sense of hypocrisy.
"I need to find a way to plant some Image Stone on the people of the Light Eagle Legion. I must see Iliphis such a sorry state."
Meanwhile, just as Lu Lu Wo was preparing to "do something big".
Within the Leyndell, Iliphis was engaging in a formulaic "date".
"Iliphis? He's so handsome!"
"Princess Serena is also very beautiful. The two of them are simply a match made in heaven!"
Iliphis greeted the crowd with a flawless smile, occasionally showing tender concern for Serena beside him, behaving perfectly like every girl's dream lover.
Serena also behaved very well, showing that she was infatuated with Iliphis, but everyone who saw them thought that this future Princess would definitely marry Iliphis.
But in reality
This sissy dares to take his mother out for a stroll in the street, and I have to play the perfect girlfriend? Are you kidding me? I'm going to throw up!
Serena squinted and looked around, then suddenly saw something, and her smile became even more genuine.
Although she could not resist Iliphis, but!
It's never a problem to annoy the other person to a minimum.
