Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

"What—"

The sound of sheep.

I opened my eyes blearily, only to see a pair of eyes with square pupils staring straight at me, as if a demon was peering into my heart.

I was so scared that I quickly turned over and squatted.

The other party seemed to be frightened by me. He hunched over like a ball and rolled away.

It turned out to be just a ewe, which scared me.

But don't underestimate any of the animals in the Elden Ring, as they may put your life in danger. If it was a ram just now, it would have definitely butted you with its horns. If there were more, three rams would have formed a horn, and even the Fire King could be butted to death!

——No, now is not the time to think about these useless things.

I shook my head and touched the blessing to sober myself up, then I held my face and sighed.

——Oh, I’m stumped by this kind of checkpoints and camps again.

The night is long, and I look at the blessed light in front of me with sorrow.

In reality, the camps guarded by these soldiers are too difficult to capture! With so many people, how can Ah Tui break in alone?

Since the infiltration of the mimic veil failed once, I am afraid it will not work again; this world is not "Dynasty Warriors", by the way, I also want a Yunmei to lead me in and out seven times! Now, the summoned ashes are completely levelless, even if they come out, they can only be beaten with me.

...I began to miss that flaming chariot so much. I have to find a chance to steal another one and find a way to put it into this four-dimensional backpack of Ci Fu!

I couldn't help but sigh again and started to think about all kinds of things.

If I still have no idea when daybreak comes, I might as well go around the lake area and go directly to old man Iggy and ask him to communicate with Lani first. That way, it will be easier for me to enter the city.

By the way, if a mountain goblin giant like Mr. Iggy were here, could he also lead me through the level? As long as someone helps me attract firepower, it would be easy to deal with these ordinary Cuckoo Knights.

Wait, this idea seems to be feasible!

I stood up suddenly, blew the spirit whistle and summoned Torret: "Torret, take me to Dujuan's sealed prison!"

That’s right, just yesterday on the road, I passed by a sealed prison, where a “Knight of Kalia” named Bols was imprisoned. That guy was the mountain goblin giant!

If we can talk things over with him and rescue him from prison, wouldn't we be able to get through this camp? !

Thinking of this, I excitedly clamped Torrett tightly, urging it to run faster.

In a blink of an eye, we found Dujuan's sealed prison, cut a wound in the palm of our hand with a dagger, and let our blood drip onto the central disc of the prison.

It was like being in an elevator and suddenly stopping. My body sank slightly, and when I opened my eyes again, gray-white barrier walls had been erected all around me.

The ground inside the prison was covered with cracks and gullies, as if a fierce battle had taken place there.

I suddenly had a bad feeling.

The huge blue crack in it also sensed the intrusion, and a huge blue figure rose up.

The mountain troll giant, who was also a knight accepted by the royal family of Kalia and was given the name of Bols, roared at me as soon as we met: "Ah——"

"Wait!" Before I could even open my mouth to say anything, I was almost knocked to the ground by a gust of wind coming towards me.

The next second, I felt a shaking sensation like an earthquake under my feet. I looked up and saw that Bols was holding his Kalia giant sword in both hands, and even pressed his entire body down to cover me.

--die!

The alarm in my mind started to sound quickly. This was probably how Sun Wukong felt when he faced the Five Finger Mountain.

I subconsciously swung the hound's fang and used some sword skills to quickly distance myself.

Even though I dodged the opponent's full-strength attack, the subsequent shock wave still knocked me to the ground.

A fear arose in my heart:

——In the game, I usually reach this level at level 30 or 40, and this Kalia Knight can often kill a small Ati with one sword, and his attack power is much higher than Xiao Ge, and he makes me curse.

Now, this fear of death has once again crept into my mind.

While the opponent was still too stiff from the first move and hadn't stood up yet, I quickly calmed myself down and shouted, "You are the Bols Knight of the Kalia Royal Family! Stop it, I'm a friend of Lani!"

"La... Ni-sama..." This guy seemed to be having great difficulty speaking, and his breath was like exhaling wind.

Seeing that there seemed to be hope, I quickly continued to shout, "Yes, I know Lani and Blaze, and I am here to rescue you and return to Kalia Castle together!"

"Lady Lani! No! No! You are hurting! Lady Lani! Aaaaa——" Unexpectedly, the next second, Bols roared again, and his momentum was even more ferocious than at the beginning. I seemed to see a red light coming out from under his helmet!

He stood up, picked up the giant sword and swung it heavily above his head, and actually summoned three giant magic swords.

Kalia spell——Giant sword formation!

Then, Bols seemed to be crazy, holding the giant sword with both hands, bending over, and swinging at the ground continuously like a farmer loosening the soil, stirring up large amounts of flying sand and rocks that rushed towards me.

——If I get hit by the sword, I will fly out!

——No, it would be fine if he flew away. If he was hit directly, Ah Tui would probably be chopped into Ah Tui sauce!

I involuntarily took a few steps back, but unexpectedly, I felt a hard resistance from behind. Have I already retreated to the edge of the prison?

"No! You are not allowed to hurt! Lady Lani!" The super bulldozer was almost in front of them.

——There’s no other choice but to fight!

I once again picked up the Hound's Fang and used a sword skill, then did a backflip and stepped on the wall of the prison. Just as Bols charged over and swung the giant sword at me, the second sword skill was activated!

bang——

I stepped on the gale and shot towards Bols' shoulder like a rocket launcher. At the same time, I continued to gather Rune's power to the soles of my feet.

——Since every time I want to use the second sword skill directly, I always mistake the Hound Step for the Storm Step, I might as well make the best of it now!

Combat skill - Storm Foot!

The force of the hurricane gushed out from the soles of my feet again, giving me further impetus. I flew directly past Bols's ear, flipped over, and landed behind him.

And because Bols rushed too far, his head hit the prison barrier directly. He staggered back a big step and finally sat down on the ground. He couldn't help but hold his dizzy head with his hands.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

——This time it was successful, but what about next time?

Moreover, this trick may work once, but it won’t work the second time.

Originally, now is a good time to fight back, but, I am here to negotiate, not to fight.

Or has this "Knight of Kalia" Bols also been locked up in the sealed dungeon for too long, just like the "Hound Knight" Darriwell and the furnace I saw before, and has lost his mind?

While I was hesitating, Bols had regained his senses and stood up again.

Jingle Bell--

Suddenly, my spirit-calling bell started ringing by itself.

——Don’t make a fuss, it’s impossible to summon ashes in the sealed prison. Even if you want to help me, you can’t.

Jingle Bell!

But the soul-summoning bell continued to ring vigorously.

——Who on earth is this person who is so active and annoying!

I picked up the Soul Summoning Bell with some annoyance, wanting to put it directly back into the four-dimensional backpack of the Blessed Light.

But I suddenly noticed that the shaking of the earth seemed to have stopped. The mountain giant Bols did not attack me further?!

Turning around, I saw that he seemed to be staring at the soul-summoning bell in my hand in a daze: "...Lady La... Ni."

——Oh, that’s right! The Soul Summoning Bell was given to me by Lani!

And according to her, she obtained it from Torret's original owner and finally gave it to me.

Although it is unclear who Torret's original owner is, there are two very likely candidates. One is the "Eternal Queen" Marika, and the other is Lani's childhood teacher, the Snow Witch!

And if it was the Snow Witch, then Lani must have obtained the Soul Summoning Bell a long time ago.

As a knight of Kalia, Bols is very likely to recognize this bell!

I carefully picked up the bell and walked towards the troll giant.

The other party actually squatted down slowly, the enthusiasm faded from him, and he called out to Her Royal Highness Princess of the Kalia Royal Family again: "Lady Ranee..."

There seemed to be a hint of loneliness and shame in the voice.

"That... Bols, now you can believe that I am Lani's friend." I said again, "I am here to rescue you, not your enemy."

"······Lani·····The Lord's friend." He repeated my words, and he must have understood them.

I breathed a sigh of relief. I didn't expect that the soul-summoning bell would become the key to awakening Bols.

——Well done, I don’t know whose ashes these are.

But in theory, it should be the three ghost wolves that Lani gave me.

——Well done, three old guys!

I took Bols to the edge of the prison disc, and I held out my hand and shouted, "Bols, put your hand over here too, I'll take you out!"

He understood what I said, and then I placed my wounded hand on his, using the blood of Rune to connect us.

——This is the way to leave the prison that was told to me by "Forge Knight" Hertog.

Then, I dripped the blood into the prison disc again, and the blue light enveloped both of us and we disappeared from the prison.
