Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 374 Plan Pass√
Seeing Bai Shi put away his staff and gave up the idea of continuing the fight, Ymir smiled and nodded.

"Alan, what a nice name."

"So what brought you to this church?"

"Oh... Could it be that the faith I spread everywhere has been responded to again?"

Ymir said, her tone becoming more excited and joyful.

Bai Shi raised his eyebrows, not knowing what he was talking about.

He is a magician, but he is spreading faith? What faith?
Bai Shi did not continue to follow Ymir's words.

He had already planned the script, so he didn't need to rely on improvisations that would be easily exposed.

So Bai Shi shook his head and interrupted Ymir who was immersed in joy.

"As for what faith you are talking about...I don't know."

Ymir was really surprised to hear the words coming from under the pyroxene stone cover.

"Aren't you here to find the way to the Incarnation Finger?"

Bai Shi frowned when he heard Ymir's words.

Fortunately, he was wearing a pyroxene stone mask, so he didn't have to manage his expression at all.

Bai Shi asked back in a doubtful tone:
"of course not."

"I am seeking the deep secrets of the stars. I am an explorer of origins."

"Although he was expelled, unwelcome, and called a heretic by the Magic Academy and the Calia royal family..."

"But exploring the life of stars and tracing their origins is what magicians should do."

"I just realized that there is a strange destiny of the stars here, so I decided to come in and check it out."

"But I didn't expect that this place doesn't look very welcoming to guests."

Bai Shi turned his head slightly, causing the pyrotechnic stone shield to also turn, and looked at the female warrior in the darkness.

And in the darkness, a pair of eyes stared back, unwilling to be outdone.

Of course, this is also a performance for Ymir, in order to maintain the character setting of the suit.

Ymir was moved when she heard Baisa's words.

It's truly heart-warming that there are still magicians today who can carry on the ancient legacy...

No matter what situation the magicians who set out on the road to the starry sky face, they all hold on to their ideals and look up at the starry sky together.

Even if I'm alone...

When looking up at the starry sky, the magicians imprisoned on the ground by their bodies are like stars, shining brightly.

The magicians are far from alone.

What a poetic and beautiful thing.

This is the romance that belongs only to the magicians who set out on the road to the starry sky.

It is also a lofty ideal that ordinary people cannot understand.

As a magician who also walks on the road of the starry sky, Ymir is very pleased at this time.

Abandoning her identity as Professor of Magic at Kalia and betraying Yue's faith, Ymir became the purest magician again.

In order to explore the stars and the life of the stars, he explored the origin of everything - the existence of the Supreme Will.

Meeting these outstanding juniors makes me feel happy and loving from the bottom of my heart.

As for the little conflict between Bai Shi and Yolan...Ymir didn't care.

There is nothing much to say about this matter. Everyone has reasonable motives and reasons.

He knew Yolan's character, this was all her thorny gentleness, but the strength of this magician named Allen made her uneasy.

A magician with such strength is naturally arrogant and will not obey when being driven away.

Compared to Ymir's former overbearing magic professor colleagues, Alan is already very restrained.

Ymir once again began to look up and down at the character played by Bai Shi carefully.

The pyroxene stone cover in the classroom of the Magic Academy Caleros, the plain clothes and bare feet are the manifestations of adhering to the Declaration of Poverty and Virtue.

He pledged to devote his life to the exploration of pyroxene, the amber of the stars, a true magician.

The magic just used also came from various classrooms and was obviously the best in the academy.

And he is also a magician of the origin school.

Ymir was very impressed by the dazzling vision of exploring the life of stars and pursuing their origins.

However, Ymir did not completely let down her guard. Instead, she began to think about a somewhat strange question.

Why did Alan appear in the Shadow Land?

He had heard that the Origin School was persecuted by the Kalia royal family and the Magic Academy and became a heretical doctrine.

But this should have happened after the Shadow Land was completely blocked.

Looking at the magician played by Bai Shi, Ymir couldn't help but think of the young man named Michaela.

During the long conversation all night, he also learned from Michaela what was happening far away in the border area.

When the Elden Ring was broken, even people in the Shadowlands felt it.

However, the Shadow Land is absolutely unable to understand the more detailed events.

Fortunately, Ymir already knew everything through Mikaela's visit here.

Whether it was the expulsion of the Origin Faction by the Kalia royal family, or the complete branding of heresy...

Or was it the rebellion of the Magic Academy and Du Juan that completely destroyed Kalia...

These should have nothing to do with the closed Shadow Land, and Alan should not be here.

Looking at Eren played by Bai Sa, Ymir had some guesses in her mind.

Since Michaela was able to enter the Shadow Land, could it be that he also came in from the same passage?
At this time, Ymir felt a little regretful. Why didn't she ask Michaela a few more questions at that time?

Because he had no need or interest in leaving the Shadow Land, he did not let Michaela introduce him to the methods of entering and leaving.

After thinking for a while, Ymir finally asked with a gentle smile:
"Alan, I welcome an excellent magician like you."

"It is very touching to see you walking on the starlit road as well."

"But I still have a question. I wonder if you can satisfy my curiosity?"

"Excuse me, how did you come to the Shadow Land?"

Bai Shi didn't expect this and curled his lips.

But after a little thought, he quickly made up a reason.

"I followed the footsteps of Lady Mikaela and came to the Land of Shadows."

"Do you need me to introduce him to you?"

Bai Shi was able to come to the Shadow Land because of Michaela, so just put the blame on him.

It doesn't matter if Ymir doesn't believe it or doesn't know who Mikaela is, because it's the truth.

At the same time, Bai Shi also revealed Michaela's mark on his body.

Although the effect has been removed by Wind Spirit Moon Shadow, the mark is still left intact.

Ymir waved her hand hastily.

"Oh, I see."

"That's not surprising. Michaela is indeed an outstanding young person."

Ymir couldn't help but smile knowingly when she realized that she had guessed the truth.

Now it all makes sense.

At the same time, Ymir was completely relieved.

This is fate, what a coincidence.

He is currently facing some difficulties. If more people can share the burden, the progress will surely be smoother.

Ymir smiled and stretched out her hand to lead Bai Shi to the depths of the church.

"To be honest, I am also a magician pursuing the origin of the starry sky."

"But what I'm looking for is the trace of the Supreme Will."

"It's great that we share similar ideals." "Please allow me to regard you as a like-minded comrade."

At the same time, Bai Shi felt a pair of eyes in the depths of the church staring at him, emitting resentment.

The Night Swordsman Yolan hid his body and looked at Bai Shi with a wary look in his eyes.

It is really hard to accept that such a person of unknown origin becomes Mr. Ymir's guest.

Ymir sat on the wide stone chair in the center of the church, and Bai Shi also found an intact chair and sat down.

After Bai Shi sat firmly, Ymir spoke again:

"You said earlier that you planned to explore this place because you sensed the strange destiny of the stars here, right?"

Bai Shi nodded and admitted it.

Although he had no feelings for the stars at all, he just linked it to something abstract like fate.

Ymir was very satisfied with Bai's sharpness and continued:

"Your instinct is correct."

"Here, the fate of the starry sky does lie, because here lies an astonishing truth."

"As long as you can get in touch with the truth, I believe you will be able to gain some inspiration and find the origin."

"I'll call myself a senior in this field. I do have some research on this subject."

"But I can't tell you the conclusion directly. You have to think for yourself and learn to love."

Bai Shi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Ymir to be so enthusiastic.

"Why are you so eager to help me?"

"Faced with a magician who suddenly barged in, this shouldn't be the normal reaction, right?"

Ymir smiled. His smile was so reassuring and infectious, and it also contained a kind of motherly kindness.

“…I just want to be a help to others.”

"Especially those who fight for a goal."

"Besides, I understand that you have the same goal as me, right?"

"In that case, helping you is also beneficial to me."

Ymir clapped her hands and shouted towards the darkness behind her without turning her head:
"Yolan, please get me a map and give it to Mr. Allen."

Soon, shadows began to gather in the church, and Yolan's figure reappeared and walked to Bai Shi's side.

She shoved the map heavily into Bai Shi's hands, unabashedly showing her vigilance and hostility in her eyes, and then retreated back into the darkness.

Ymir shook her head helplessly, but did not blame Yoran. Instead, she said to Bai Shi like a mother apologizing to her child who had done something wrong:
"I'm sorry... that kid has had a hard time before."

"So when she interacts with people, she seems to have thorns...but she is a good girl."

Bai Shi waved his hands and didn't care. That's what a loyal dog character is like.

It doesn't matter what happens to them personally, but once it comes to the masters they serve, they will fight harder than anyone else.

Looking at the map in his hand, Bai Shi immediately recognized the location on it. It was one of the finger remains.

However, Bai Shi still pretended to be honest and asked:
"A map?"

"What's up here?"

Ymir knocked on the armrest of the stone seat and said:

"The map I gave you marks a mysterious relic."

"It is said that there is a hanging bell there, and when the bell is blown, the person's fate will be guided by the bright stars."

"Then you will see the reality of your desire."

Bai Shi accepted the simple map and smiled slightly under the pyroxene stone cover.

The plan is passed√.

It is obvious that they have successfully penetrated into the interior.

At this point, Bai Shi has obtained enough intelligence and is qualified to participate in the follow-up.

However, Bai Shi now has some questions, so he plans to ask now.

Looking up at Ymir, Bai Shi asked:
"Come to think of it, what you said when you asked me at the beginning really concerned me."

"The Way of the Incarnation Finger, what does this mean?"

Ymir's eyebrows knitted together, looking a little hesitant.

He actually didn't want to tell Bai Shi about the relevant things so early, but who made him let it slip?
Ymir knew how amazing the magicians' desire to explore was, and it was a thirst that had to be quenched.

After thinking about it, Ymir started to explain:

"In this secret place shrouded in shadows, only the starlight still shines mercifully. This is the only comfort for us magicians."

"Other people are not so lucky."

"In such a broken and closed place, everyone is trying their best to find peace of mind."

"There is no golden light in the Land of Shadows. When false beliefs collapse, the truth will be revealed."

After a pause, Ymir raised her eyes and spoke softly to Bai Shi:
"By the way, Alan, do you know about this?"

"Long, long ago, there was an explosion somewhere far away."

"And the explosion created stardust—that's us."

"We are all children of the Supreme Will."

"How poetic and beautiful!"

“…It’s just that this matter is little known, which is very touching.”

Bai Shi had a strange expression on his face as he listened to Ymir's words.

Isn't this the Big Bang?
This is the first time I've heard that the Supreme Will created life in this way.

Sure enough, I found the right place. Ymir really knew the deep inside story.

Whether it is the real supreme will or the finger-like existence that impersonates the supreme will.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Shi asked:

"So you mean that someone is looking for the source of true faith, the messengers of the Supreme Will - the fingers?"

Seeing that Bai Shi immediately understood what she said, Ymir nodded in satisfaction.

This young man really pleases him.

Lowering her head and looking at her body, Ymir continued:
"Some people are pursuing fingers, hoping to transform into fingers..."

"The body that was so close to the two fingers became the delusion of the believers."

"But, delusion? Not really."

"On the contrary, it is not delusion, but the truth."

"People can be transformed into fingers."

"That's the form that humans are supposed to have!"

Bai Shihui's expression under the stone cover became very strange.

"……Um?"

The phrase "Humans should be like this" was simply a joke to Bai Shichun, who thought Ymir was just talking nonsense.

It is possible for a person to become a finger, but it is unlikely that a person should have been a finger.

As if she had sensed Bai Shi's confusion and bewilderment, Ymir took out a small bottle filled with pink round particles from her arms.

As he moved, Bai Shi seemed to hear the sound of dense creatures squirming and rubbing against each other from within his robes.

Bai Shi looked at Ymir's body in confusion, but the movement disappeared again.

Bai Shi didn't think this was an illusion.

His sensing attribute is ridiculously high, and coupled with the observation ability brought by his own numerical value, there must be something under the clothes.

But stripping a man's clothes off is too perverted, and I really can't do such a thing.

Besides, we haven’t got all the information yet, so we can’t do anything to Ymir.

Ymir held the secret medicine bottle and said:
"This is the key to the path of the finger - the secret medicine of fingerprints."
