Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 267 Sign a contract with me and become a magical girl!

Bai Shi walked down the hillside and headed towards the downhill road leading to the Ryan Magic Tower.

There are many mines specially made by the evil soldiers on this downhill slope. If you step on them, the trap will be triggered and poisonous fog will be released.

In addition, there are many evil soldiers lying in ambush and hiding inside.

In order to avoid trouble, Bai Shi started flying directly from here.

But to Bai Shi's surprise, just like in the game, there was a Night Cavalry patrolling and guarding the bridge.

The Night Riders were Mongett's direct subordinates and were very powerful. Bai Shi had fought with them several times before.

Unlike in the game where they are distributed all over the place, the Night Riders do not wander around the border areas.

All their actions were under the command of Monget, whether it was attacking a place or patrolling and defending with a purpose.

In other words, this night cavalry came here to patrol under some orders.

Considering that this is the Beast Temple where Malicus is hiding, and there are a large number of evil soldiers belonging to the Golden Dynasty nearby, the owner of this magic tower may have had some connection with the Golden Dynasty.

The Night Cavalry did not notice Bai Shi flying in the air, so Bai Shi ignored him.

Putting aside whether he would get a War Gray with Hound Step like in the game, Bai Shi no longer needed Hound Step.

With his current skills, he could just use the storm to dodge faster than a hound.

The lightning combat skill that he had obtained from the Death Knight before could transform him into lightning after fully mastering it.

In addition, he had previously obtained Soul Sprint in the spirit world. During use, he would display a soul state and could even be immune to most physical attacks.

Entering from the side window on the second floor of the Magic Tower, Bai Shi began to search the Magic Tower.

This magic tower is in a very messy state, as if a battle had taken place there and no one has taken care of it since.

There was nothing on the second floor of the magician's tower except some magic books.

However, these magic books were also damaged along with the collapsed bookshelves, and only a few of them barely escaped.

Bai Shi was looking for something still visible when he heard some noise coming from downstairs.

Bai Shi walked down the stairs and saw a magician's ball made up of many magician's heads on the first floor of the magic tower.

When it saw Bai Shi, it immediately used magic, and all kinds of pyroxenes continuously shot towards it.

Perhaps he was the former owner of this magic tower. He used various magics extremely quickly and their power should not be underestimated.

Seeing that he could no longer communicate, Bai Shi summoned a ball of blazing sun flame in his hand and threw it over.

The continuous magic was all swallowed up by the flames, without causing any ripples.

The sun flames engulfed the magic all the way and came to the front of the magician's ball, burning it to ashes the moment it touched the magician's ball.

Bai Shi felt that the power of the sun was much stronger than before and nodded with satisfaction.

Ever since he shattered a piece of Godwin's tarnished sun, Bai Shi's sun power has become even stronger.

The sun is constantly moving away from the border, on a tour with an unknown destination, and He will no longer give Bai Shi more powerful powers.

But as long as the sun's rays shine on the border area, Bai Shi's existing power can be further exerted.

After getting rid of the magician's ball, Bai Shi continued to wander around.

There was nothing on the first floor, just like on the second floor, and most of the magic books were severely damaged.

Bai Shi collected all the few usable magic books, intending to add to his own collection in the future.

As for the top floor of this magician's tower, Bai Shi found a special black stone pendant in a hidden small box.

This is an item that can be found in various magician towers in the game - the Memory Stone.

It is said that this is a fragment of the black moon hanging over the 'Eternal City'.

This memory stone is similar in shape to the one Bai Shi had picked up in the Conversion Tower before, with only slight differences.

The effect of the Memory Stone in the game is to increase the upper limit of the number of magic and prayers that can be carried.

But magicians in reality have no memory grids or limits, and the functions of memory stones are different from those in games.

It does not directly increase intelligence, but it does have a certain implicit increase in magic.

Both the speed of casting and the clarity of thinking will be slightly improved.

Bai Shi also wore this memory stone, and now he had two in total.

Contrary to previous expectations, this memory stone and the previous one actually took effect at the same time, and the effects were superimposed.

If the previous bonuses were just minor and dispensable, their effects can now be felt more clearly.

It seems that it will be necessary to collect all these memory stones in the future and put them together again.

In the cave under the avenue, Hakan was fighting with the huge golem guard in front of him, holding an oversized Dragon Blood Knight sword.

This cave was the place where he and his companions had come to explore before, and it was also the burial place of all his companions.

This time he came back to bring out their remains.

The road inside this cave is very difficult to walk on, with a huge height difference.

However, this was not Hakan's first time here, so he did not encounter many obstacles along the way.

The cave was connected in all directions, and he chose the path that impressed him the most, leading him to the location of the most powerful enemy in the cave.

That is where the golem guard is located.

This was also the place where most of his companions suffered casualties.

In the past, he could only barely escape from the Golem guards and fled in a panic, but now he has the strength to compete with it.

Hakan kept dodging the golem's attacks, while looking for opportunities to attack its ankles during the golem's attacks.

The outer shell of this golem's legs is badly damaged, and molten liquid can be seen flowing through the cracks. Without armor, this place has become its weakness.

As the last sword broke through the defense, molten liquid gushed out from its legs.

One of the golem's legs lost power and could no longer support its body, so it fell forward.

Hakan dodged the falling golem and took the opportunity to run to its chest, stabbing his sword into the furnace that provided power.

This successfully destroyed its power, and the flaming liquid kept gushing out, finally destroying it.

After a fierce battle, Hakan was exhausted.

The golem's attacks were too powerful. A casual step on the ground would cause shock waves. The debris flying from the weapon and the flames it spewed out also made Hakan look miserable.

Fortunately, he won in the end.

Hakan walked a few steps to the side, ready to collect the remains of his companions.

Suddenly he saw something flashing in the grass beside him.

When I got closer, I saw that it was actually a piece of clear crystal the size of a human head, with a petite humanoid creature inside.

The humanoid creature inside had pink hair and was wearing a light green dress. She was curled up and her appearance could not be seen clearly. There seemed to be a pair of wings behind her.

Those were not feathers, but thin wings like those of a dragonfly.

Hakan looked up and saw a gap in the cliff wall, which seemed to be just the right size.

Maybe she was knocked down during the fight just now.

Hakan accepted it silently, intending to take it back and show Bai Shi what kind of creature it was.

Then he stood up and gathered the remains of his companions around him.

But before he could finish cleaning up, the sound of wild beasts was heard at the entrance of the cave.

Hakan looked over there warily, only to see two huge Rune bears slowly walking in from the cave entrance, staring at him fiercely.

Hakan's heart skipped a beat. There was no Rune Bear the last time he came to this cave.

Could it be that when the fog forest was being cleared and roads were opened, the Rune Bears that were driven out from there wandered here?

I don’t know where these two Rune Bears were hiding before.

The damage of the golem is very easy for the Rune Bears to hit, and it is extremely powerful.

It seems that these two beasts came out only after seeing the golem being defeated.

In short, there is still a fierce battle.

Hakan carefully felt his current situation.
Although he was injured a little by the aftermath of the stomping on the ground and the fire, his injuries were not serious.

However, the physical energy consumption has been considerable, and fatigue has filled the whole body.

Hakan took a deep breath, then roared and used a battle cry.

As the magic power vibrated, the high fighting spirit was rekindled, and the magic power briefly turned into strength.

He then aroused the power of the dragon blood in his body, and his skin immediately turned red. The patterns on the dragon blood armor on his body also glowed with a dark red fierce light.

With his strength, dealing with a Rune Bear is not a problem.

However, if there are two ends, it is completely different.

He must kill one first so that he has a chance to survive.

Hakan aimed at the oncoming Rune Bear and stabbed its neck with his sword accurately.

The sword penetrated deeply into the neck of the Rune Bear in front, and blood gushed out, covering Hakan's body.

Hakan's eyes suddenly lit up. This was a good start.

However, after being hurt, the Rune Bear did not behave like ordinary wild beasts. Instead of retreating or running away, it became more ferocious and did not care about its own life or death.

The huge Rune Bear pushed Hakan all the way back, and the greatsword penetrated further into its body, but it also pushed Hakan back continuously.

Under the dual buff of battle cry and dragon blood, Hakan still managed to fight against Rune Bear with human power.

But as the Rune Bear suddenly pushed forward, Hakan lost his balance and was crushed under it.

The Rune Bear slapped Hakan with one claw, pinning him down, its bloody mouth getting closer and closer.

A huge force came from the heavy bear claws, and Hakan's breastplate was dented by the Rune Bear.

Hakan could even smell the stench in the Rune Bear's mouth. He immediately turned the hilt of his sword to tear the Rune Bear's wound and barely blocked it in front of him.

As the wound tore further apart, the Rune bear lost more and more blood.

Because it was extremely weak, the Rune Bear could hardly launch further attacks.

Barely resisting the dying attack of the Rune Bear on his body, Hakan tried hard to push away the Rune Bear, which was no different from a corpse.

He had to quickly recover to a position where he could use the greatsword, otherwise he would definitely be pinned down and mauled to death by another Rune Bear.

Before Hakan could get up, the other Rune Bear roared and slapped him in the face.

Hakan was thrown into the air and rolled several times on the ground before he came to a stop.

Fortunately, he held the Dragon Blood Sword tightly, so he did not drop the weapon.

Hakan was in even worse condition after he stood up again.

The slap from Rune Bear just now sent him flying so hard that his internal organs seemed to be all messed up and even his bones were probably broken.

The Rune Bear had already charged over, not giving him any time to breathe.

Looking at the aggressive Rune Bear, Hakan knew that he only had one last chance to strike.

The dragon blood reduced his sensitivity to pain, so he was able to swing his sword again and chop at the oncoming Rune Bear.

This sword exhausted Hakan's remaining strength, and he placed all his hopes on this sword.

"Roar--!"

Hakan's powerful sword tore through the Rune Bear's thick fur and fat, and then the sharp sword easily separated the flesh and blood and embedded deeply into the Rune Bear's spine.

However, the sword that Hakan had placed his hopes on was stuck here.

Hakan fell into despair as he looked at the Rune Bear's claws that were about to strike.

It is said that before a person dies, his consciousness will become very fast, fast enough to recall everything in his life.

Hakan certainly felt it now, but at the moment he couldn't think of anything important worth remembering from the first half of his life.

At this moment, he was thinking about the Dragon Blood Legion after his death, and then Stonewell, and the white consciousness who would successfully become the King of Elden in the future.

What will the world look like then?
Am I going to die here?
There are so many things that have not been completed, but am I going to die in this cave?
That's right, this was the ending he deserved.

Perhaps he should have been buried here with his companions...

A voice suddenly sounded in Hakan's ear. "Are you giving up?"

A series of very familiar but now blurred faces flashed before his eyes.

Eventually it transformed into a figure wearing the traditional clothing of Kaidan mercenaries.

What is this, a death fantasy?
Hakan smiled bitterly in his heart.

He didn't want to die, but it was not up to him to decide.

He had already used up all his tricks and was no longer able to resist this move.

"Then I will help you."

A phantom appeared out of thin air along the path that Hakan had chopped down before, and instantly cut off the bear's claws.

Hakan's eyes widened. All this happened in just a moment, but it did happen.

All this is actually true!
'Hakam, kill him!'

As soon as these words were spoken, Hakan's momentum immediately increased, and an inexplicable power surged from his body.

Hakan's eyes were red and the moisture blurred his vision.

He gritted his teeth and swung down with all his strength as if he wanted to break his teeth. The next moment, the greatsword that was originally deeply embedded in the Rune Bear's spine completely cut through it.

As Rune Bear's head flew up into the sky and then fell to the ground, there were no more enemies in front of him.

Hakan fell to his knees, gasping for breath, in disbelief.

In desperation, Hakan used a move he had seen before from the Night Riders - Phantom Attack.

This move that almost killed him had always lingered in his mind, but now, he used it inexplicably.

Hakan looked up, but the figure he had just talked to was nowhere to be seen, as if it were an illusion.

No matter how he called out, there was no response.

Hakan stood up and tried to swing his sword, and immediately a shadow of a Kaidan mercenary appeared behind him again, following his attack and cooperating with him.

In Hakan's consciousness, the shadow did not disappear immediately, but lingered for a long time.

Hakan tried to get him to move, and the figure moved on its own just as he imagined.

Was it an outburst in desperation, or was it really blessed by the souls...

This question is no longer important.

Hakan was satisfied, all the shackles of his past were broken.

He has completely changed and reached a level worthy of being called a hero.

Hakan tried hard to calm his breathing and prevent the wound from getting worse.

"You are badly injured. Let me help you heal~"

A petite figure flew in front of Hakan and spoke with a smile.

Hakan was startled by the sudden appearance of the little thing.

A small creature not much bigger than a palm was floating in front of him, flapping its thin wings at high speed.

Hakan looked closely and realized that it was the strange creature that was in the crystal just now.

"what are you?"

The little thing looked at Hakan with an unfriendly expression.

"Huh? I'm trying to save you out of kindness, and you're talking like that?"

"Hasn't anyone heard of fairies nowadays?"

Hakan shrugged. If he just slowed down a little, he wouldn't die here.

"Fairies? I've heard that there used to be a species called elves on the border."

When the goblin saw that Hakan confused goblins and elves, it began to dance around in front of Hakan, seeming to be very angry.

"Damn it! I told you it's a goblin! It's a goblin!"

"I am different from those elves!"

"Oh my, those elves are so stupid. They get fooled every time!"

"That's why I don't want people to confuse fairies with elves!"

The little goblin flew back and forth for a while, and then suddenly calmed down.

"Well, although our life forms are indeed very similar, we fairies are much more advanced than elves. Please remember this."

Hakan didn't quite understand what she was saying, but her temper was obviously different from that of humans, and her thinking seemed a little confused.

Just go along with her.

Seeing Hakan looking at him in bewilderment, the elf shook his head, sighed and said:
"Oh, forget it, I'll get you treated quickly, I'm leaving now."

Hakan couldn't help asking:
"What are you going to do?"

The goblin held his hands out in front of him and circled Hakan twice.

Points of light kept floating from the goblin's hands towards Hakan.

Hakan's injuries were recovering rapidly, at a speed that could be described as terrifying.

"Me? After I lift the seal, I will look for a suitable person to pass on an important legacy."

"Let me tell you, we fairies are carrying a very important mission, so we must take it seriously."

"Alas, but I don't even know what time it is now, and I may not be able to find the right person if I go out."

"I don't even know whether the purpose of my mission still exists."

The little goblin sighed, but then burst into laughter.

"Look, it's healed!"

"Although there is no Jade Dew and no assistance from the elves, the spiritual power can still have an effect."

"I've only managed to do this now, but it can be considered as a thank you for helping me remove the seal."

Listening to the goblin in front of him repeatedly talking about lifting the seal, Hakan scratched his head.

"You said to lift the seal... but I didn't do anything."

The goblin pointed to the half-melted crystal on the ground and said:
"This seal is very weak, so just a little bit of magic power can free me."

"It's the magic in your blood that just happened to touch it."

Hakan glanced sideways.

He was a warrior and had never learned anything like prayer or magic.

His ability to utilize magic power is not very high, and he can only use a little in battle.

Even if some dragon blood has magical powers, it definitely won’t be much.

"Just a little bit of magic power can remove the seal?"

"The seal is so fragile?"

The goblin looked at Hakan strangely.

"This is a self-seal I made to stay alive. If it's set too firmly, I won't be able to get out at all."

"Oops, I think I accidentally told you too much. Anyway, I'm leaving now~"

After saying that, the little fairy flew forward hurriedly, and the next moment her figure disappeared out of thin air.

Hakan opened his mouth, wondering what was going on with this strange guy.

In a hurry, and always feel that he is not very smart.

Come to think of it, she didn't even introduce her name.

Forget it, I'll tell Bai Shi later and let him take a look at the situation.

Now let’s collect all the remains first.
-
In just a few seconds, this strange goblin appeared out of nowhere at the southernmost part of Nimgefu.

She flapped her wings at high speed in the air, looked at the castle in the distance, and nodded.

Her intuition pointed to this place, where there was a special person who met her standards and would agree to sign a contract with her.

As special creatures, the goblins' intuition is extremely terrifying.

To put it in an exaggerated way, one could even say that they can see fate directly.

The castle in front of the fairy is the city of Moren.

The city of Moren has changed greatly compared to before.

As a camp, Moren City gradually accepted many Faded People, and the population of Moren City was no longer comparable to before.

Not only was the city of Moren filled with people again, but even the open space outside the city was occupied by various barracks, and a whole new town was built.

The goblin found the right direction and then teleported directly to a room in the city.

At this moment, Irena was sitting on a chair, holding the holy seal tightly in her hand.

With another release, a dazzling golden tree emblem appeared on the ground in the room.

Irena hopes she can help Bai Shi, so she never slacks off in training and studying.

It's just a pity that she knew in her heart that this was impossible to achieve.

Knowledge is growing too fast.

Not to mention that she was blind and couldn't go to the battlefield at all, her meager reply was really of no help.

The little goblin appeared in front of Irena, looked around her twice, and nodded with satisfaction.

This human has a 'trait' that is hard to ignore.

That is a 'trait' that will attract the attention of certain gods.

Irena heard the sound of flapping wings in the room. At first she didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was just an insect flying in.

Until a childish voice sounded in her ears.

"Hello~ Are you interested in signing a contract with me?"

Irena was startled and held the holy mark tightly in her hand, a little flustered.

Who suddenly appeared in my room?
Irena tried to remain calm and asked:

"Who are you? Why did you suddenly appear in my room?"

The goblins were flying up and down.

"Hey, don't be afraid, I'm a kind and lovely fairy~"

"Yeah...that's right, it's normal to be scared since you can't see."

"In that case, let me let you experience it in advance..."

The little fairy stretched out her hand, and white spiritual power emerged, gradually covering Irena's eyes.

Suddenly, all the surrounding scenes appeared in Irena's mind.

Irena stood up, completely stunned.

She stretched out her hands and waved them wildly, not used to the sudden gaze.

If it were a normal person, it would probably be more difficult to adapt because the viewing angle is 360 degrees around the body.

However, for Irena, who had never been able to see, she quickly accepted this scene.

"If you sign a contract, I can help you even more."

"You will gain unprecedented power and a completely different second half of your life."

Irena saw the appearance of the little goblin and fell into deep thought.

"Signing a contract..."

"…So, what is the price?"
