Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

We finally managed to escape from the Boiling River Basin with Millicent, but right from the start, we were mistaken for reinforcements sent by Rodel and were besieged by the fire believers in the Ledo Fortress, which was affiliated with the Volcano Palace.

Old women in red cloaks held up bundles of thorns, and with red flames burning on the tops, they suddenly poked the bundles into the ground. The bright red thorns rushed towards us like a school of flying fish leaping on the water.

"Get out of the way!" Millicent and I quickly dodged to the left and right.

Almost in the next second, a large cluster of thorns suddenly burst out from under our feet, like a drill breaking through the sky.

Boom boom boom——

The fiery chariot followed closely, spewing scorching flames, and crushed towards Torret and me.

——You came just in time. I’ve always wanted to try that trick!

"Torret, please!" I clamped my legs hard around Torret's waist and abdomen, and it immediately understood what I was thinking.

When the breath of the Fiery Chariot came towards me, Torrett suddenly made a double jump in the direction of the chariot, and before it dissipated and returned to the Spirit Whistle Ring, I used Torrett's back to make a third jump and flew directly over the top of the Fiery Chariot.

Night Starfire stabbed a knife into the ventilation window on the top of the chariot and started to make a fuss inside.

Click, click, click!

No one knew what mechanism had been touched, but the chariot of fire suddenly began to spin on the spot, dancing a ballet, and the flames continued to spit out.

——That’s not right. In the game, after Ati executed the chariot and destroyed its fatal weakness, shouldn’t it have been stuck in place, unable to move, and then exploded?

Damn!

The car closed its eyes, spun, and jumped. I don't know which rock it hit, but it sent me flying.

I was caused to tumble two and a half times in the air, and then I fell heavily to the ground, and the flames burned my back.

——I wanted to be a real man and not look back at the explosion, but in the end I was roasted to a crisp.

Of course, the Chariot of Fire wasn't much better.

Like a bumper car, it collided with various rocks and then exploded with a loud bang.

But if we injure one thousand enemies, we will lose eight hundred of our own. In the future, when dealing with this chariot, it is better to just grab it and drive it yourself.

I made up my mind secretly and quickly got up from the ground. On the other side, Millicent swung the blade, as gracefully as a startled swan and like a swimming dragon, she elegantly dealt with the fire believers who surrounded her.

But the other side's help continued to come.

There was even a sudden rain of flaming meteors from the sky, which hit the Rodel soldiers remaining on the battlefield and made them scream in pain.

——Even the big silver fat man, the Fire Lord, who was guarding the fortress, ran out?

He held the big red hammer and launched the Bishop's Charge, crushing a Knight Commander of Rodel directly onto a rock, leaving a pool of blood.

Then the archbishop looked towards us again.

This guy is not difficult to deal with, but the fortress still has a lot of people and power, and there are four or five fire chariots galloping in this mountain area.

The fighting Rodel soldiers obviously couldn't hold out much longer.

Millicent and I are not really here to support them, so we should not make trouble for ourselves. We should leave here quickly while they can still help us stop some fire believers.

Thinking of this, I summoned Torret again and shouted to Millicent, "Millicent, let's go first. There's no need to linger here!"

"it is good!"

Millicent also got back on her horse and followed me, going around the edge of the battlefield.

But the bishop really did set his sights on us. He rubbed his sledgehammer on the ground, aimed at the direction we were heading, and tried to intercept us.

"Oh oh oh——" This guy also made a roar like a train.

All I could do was yell, "Torret, run!"

Phew——

Well, even with the help of combat skills, how can a human be faster than a horse?

Millicent and I quickly escaped from the battlefield in front of Ledo Fortress and moved straight forward.

As soon as my feet touched the dark ground, green smoke began to rise.

Before our eyes, a scarlet red light blocked our way. It was the lava flowing down from the crater of the Gemir volcano, forming a lake. The rising flames even dyed the clouds in the sky the same color.

If I remember correctly, after crossing this lake, you can reach a hermit village, which is where the wizards' favorite magic, Comet Azrael, is obtained.

Of course, I will not forget that before crossing this magma lake, a lava earth dragon will emerge from it... It is better to say that I have already seen that big guy.

Like a crocodile lying in the shallow water to bask in the sun, the huge lava dragon lay freely in the lava lake, seemingly still sleeping. It did not rush over aggressively when it saw A-ti like in the game.

——That’s perfect, just go around it!

"Torret, it's up to you, just go ahead." I clamped Torret's waist and abdomen.

The other party also rushed into the lava without hesitation.

Phew——

However, the neighing of a warhorse was heard from behind. No matter how hard Millicent pulled the horse, it stopped at the edge of the lava lake and refused to move forward another step.

——Ah, that’s right, Torret is a spiritual horse, and he has inherited the power from the two ancestral spirit kings underground. Naturally, he is not afraid of mountains of swords and seas of fire, and he has stronger endurance.

——But Millicent’s warhorse is an ordinary beast and may not be able to withstand the boiling molten flames.

Moreover, unlike in the game, the lava lake spanned the entire mountain area and was estimated to be about thirty to forty meters wide, leaving no room to go around it.

——Then I can only give it up here and go back to pick up Millicent.

Thinking this, I pulled Torrett back, but I heard a dull panting sound in my ears.

Turning around, I saw that the lava earth dragon opened its eyes, raised its body, and looked at the person who disturbed its sweet dream.

"Oh oh oh——" And the Fire Leader was still chasing us like a bulldozer.

"Millicent, come here!" I stretched out my hand to Millicent, and she naturally understood what I meant and grabbed it, then jumped off the horse's back and flew behind me.

"Let's go, Torrett."

Phew——

"Roar!" The lava earth dragon roared as expected, treating us as invaders.

This guy didn't chase us directly, but blocked the center of the lava lake and then swung his tail violently.

Suddenly, the surging magma turned into waves and rushed towards us.

"Toret, jump!"

I had just given the order when Millicent immediately shouted, "No, Zero, get Torrett to run back!"

Torrett also turned his head immediately, and saw that the surging wave of magma was just a cover. Afterwards, the lava earth dragon picked up its earth dragon scale sword, like a spoon, and brought a handful of magma directly towards him.

It was like a huge net; even before it landed on me, I could already feel the burning heat of the molten flame, as if it was going to peel off a layer of my skin.

It was indeed thanks to Millicent's reminder and Torret's quick judgment, otherwise, after we crossed the waves, we would have been immediately covered by the huge net.

"Oh oh oh-"

As soon as we returned to the shore, the Fire Bishop had caught up with us.

The lava dragon, as if infected by the Fire Bishop, also roared, opened its mouth and spewed molten lava, charging straight towards Millicent and me.

Every step seemed to shake the earth and mountains, and every step caused molten lava to splash everywhere, causing slight ripples on the thick lake.

——Damn it, I’m double-teamed from front and back!

Moreover, I always feel that if we don’t get rid of this stinky earth dragon, it will not let us go easily.

Well, since I can’t skip classes, I’ll just have to keep fighting!
