Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

What is the reason to live?

In fact, the answer was already clear in my mind when I was talking to Melina.

——Of course, that is to meet all the NPCs in the Elden Ring world who are nice to Ate, and I want to save them and achieve a super perfect ending for the Elden Ring world!

Although, this goal seems out of reach now, after all, I am just a small fry who is afraid of death, hahaha (dry laugh).

But now, I also have a new goal, which is the new agreement with Melina - to explore this border area together, and to re-examine this land that I am already very familiar with.

Well, to say that I have no fear of death is of course a lie.

Moreover, I realized later that Melina seemed to have cleverly changed the subject last night, which made me face the root of my fear more directly - it was the impatience and anxiety about the unknown and things that didn't go as expected, which in turn triggered a panic about death.

Melina says she's not a real witch, but she does a great job of guiding people!

In order to not let Melina's advice go to waste, and to reduce his own anxiety and impatience, he had to learn more about the current situation of the border area and gain more knowledge so that he could plan a better survival strategy.

Right now, I start as a useless man, and the weapons I have on hand are: the only three throwing knives left, a tattered big leather shield, an empty cracked pot... that's all.

Alas, I have to find a sword again.

In addition, it is time to decide the upgrade direction of your main faction: Strength and Agility Warrior (mainly upgrade strength and agility)? Faith Warrior? Peerless Magician?

From a gaming perspective, the mage is the most suitable character for pioneering new areas.

But in today's real world, there is a big problem - that is, this world cannot be locked! For example, if the target is hidden in the bushes or Lao Liu is hiding in the shadows, you can't press the interactive "Q" key like in the game to find them directly without sharpening your eyes!

In addition, when facing agile enemies, spells sometimes cannot hit the enemies, which makes it difficult to deal with.

The faith warriors are quite good in the later stages, with all kinds of gorgeous skills and powerful buffs, which greatly enhance the gameplay and fun of the game... But in the early stages, the same problem exists as with magic, there are not even particularly good weapons, and the low faith and low damage are also big problems.

So, I still have to trust my body at the beginning! Strength and agility allow me to use more weapons and use excellent combat skills to gain more operational possibilities.

There will be a chance in the future to find Queen Reinara of the Magic Academy to reset your points and add new attributes to yourself.

In addition, I, the useless man, have a special advantage compared to other warriors at the beginning - I am born with ten points of intelligence, which means that I can use the lowest grade pyroxene magic.

As a simple long-range output method for pioneering new areas, it is quite good.

At the same time, it can also help me get familiar with the use of spells in the real world.

Once the strategy is decided, what needs to be done becomes clear: first, find weapons and a staff; second, find a magic teacher.

If we talk about the magic teacher who is loved by everyone and makes flowers bloom wherever he goes, it must be Se Lian sensei!

Besides, my location is the Blessed Point: the south bank of Lake Yakir, very close to the ruins of the Post Street where Teacher Seren was hiding.

This information should not be wrong.

After all, Teacher Se Lian is in some trouble now and won't move around casually, but in the game he can buy information from that old man Galie.

Now that you're here, it would be a shame not to meet him.

Besides, I also happened to want to ask her about the problem of Burke's inability to return to the original state.

To sum up, Teacher Se Lian, here I come!

Please let me wear the same stone mask as you and breathe your remaining breath, hehehe~

He set off on Torrett's ride, and on the way, he happened to pass by the place where he and Patch robbed Greg's convoy yesterday.

As Melina said to me last night, "It is not easy for the lives that are still blessed in this land to truly die."

At the moment, there is not a single dead body here, only traces of the melee that took place here yesterday.

Even the crushed body of the Greg soldier disappeared without a trace.

"After they receive a fatal injury, they will fall into a coma-like state... As a price, part of the runes in their bodies will be taken away by others, and a portion will also be absorbed by the golden tree... After a period of time, the blessing will come again, and they will be resurrected." Melina explained.

I remembered the blank period after the battle with Nelius and the time when Patch took my runes, and asked curiously, "If I have enough runes, can I also be immortal?"

Melina shook her head. "Unfortunately, people like you, Master Zero, were banished to the borderland by Queen Marica. The blessings you received are minimal, and you cannot be resurrected."

"In addition, under the effect of blessing, Rune has another important use, which is to increase strength. The demigods in the border area, or those who crave power, will choose this method of use. Therefore, for them, life is often only once."

——This is probably why Blood Finger and various boss monsters will be defeated and disappear.

I have obtained some crucial information.

Although I still have some minor questions about the mechanisms inside, this preliminary understanding is enough for now.

...can also reduce some of the crimes that deprive people of their lives. Perhaps this is why Melina told me this knowledge.

Oh, found it.

While recalling and searching the battlefield, I found a straight sword of the King's Army stained with blood under a bush.

Could it be that it was the one I originally had, which I inserted into the goblin's ankle and then it pulled out and threw away?

But, no matter what, I already have the ability to fight.

······Remember, before meeting Teacher Se Lian, you still need to deal with a crazy pumpkin-headed boss monster. However, that guy, even if he is a level one A-ti, can be easily dealt with after mastering the tricks of fighting.

That’s right, I’m still level one!

I feel like I've gone through several tough battles, but I'm still only level 1. Why? Cry.

I rode my horse straight ahead and soon found the remains of the post station street beside the road.

As I stepped in, I soon smelled an intoxicating floral scent - sure enough, this place was also full of flower monsters from the Elden Ring. Although they moved extremely slowly and their attacks mainly consisted of spraying poison, they did not pose much of a threat.

but······

A faint white glow appeared under my feet, and then several lasers fell from the sky one after another.

Miranda's Prayer - This range skill has a very long pre-swing, but also has a long duration.

It's fine under normal circumstances, but if you encounter a situation where you have to go through a fog gate, or climb up or down a ladder, where you can't move on the horizontal plane, it can be quite annoying to do it two or three times.

Therefore, before entering the boss of Posthouse Street, I will deliberately guide the strange flower to use this trick and then drill into the underground entrance.

Then, let's fight! Crazy Pumpkin-Head Soldier!
