Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

"Sure enough, is this the place where that lord is buried?" Feiya also walked out of the passage and looked at the river in the distance. She seemed to have sensed the presence of the dead Prince Godwin.

"Well, but it's still a long way to get there." I subconsciously blew the spirit horse whistle to summon Torret, "Follow me this way."

"Zero, we are going to the river over there next, right?" Lance Shanks asked... By the way, you, ancient dragon, why did you pick up Fia again?

"Ah, yeah," I responded dryly.

"Then we'll go ahead." After saying that, Lance Shanks hugged Fia and flew out directly.

Yes, after all, he is an ancient dragon with wings, so the first reaction is naturally to fly over.

Mongget and I looked at each other, and then looked at the bottomless abyss under the tree. If it weren't for the light from the river illuminating the nearby underground, we wouldn't even be able to see the road clearly and wouldn't know how we fell.

——Damn it, what a huge loss!

Phew——

He couldn't help but sigh, but still rode Torret obediently, along the rock wall, jumping over the thick and tangled tree roots.

buzzing-

boom!

But after a while, a thunderous roar suddenly exploded in my ears, echoing throughout the entire deep roots.

Looking up, I saw flames dancing wildly in the air and red lightning running fast between the roots.

"What is Lance Shanks doing all of a sudden?" I just finished speaking when I suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a lot of corrosive red ants in this deep root area. Could it be...

"Go and help, Zero." Mongette also quickened his pace.

After several leaps between the tree roots, he rushed to the location where Lance Shanks was roaring like a dragon.

Oh my goodness, has this attracted all the flying ants in the deep root area?

The black and red were like a huge dark cloud, surrounding Lance Sanx. There were even a lot of guys on the side, with their big butts raised, attacking the ancient dragon from a distance.

"Lance Shanks!" I don't have many anti-aircraft means, so I can only call Lance Shanks to fly over to help her deal with such a large group of flying ants.

Of course, many scarlet flying ants soon noticed Mungert and me, and immediately rushed towards us like annoying flies, flapping their wings and opening their large pincer-like mouthparts.

Monggot casually used runes to condense flying blades, which accurately hit the heads of the giant ants, causing them to fall into the bottomless abyss.

The night stars scattered frost crystals, and I also slashed at the flying ants one after another.

But are there so many flying ants in the game? Cluster after cluster, just like endless leeks.

"Zero, go on!" Lance Shanks' voice suddenly came from above his head.

I just looked up and saw the gray-black Fia being thrown towards me.

"Ouch!" I was caught off guard and pushed to the ground by Fia.

"I'm sorry, Master Ling." Feiya apologized quickly, "I, I really can't help you."

On the other side, Lance Sanx roared: "You lowly creatures, let me show you what the real power of an ancient dragon is!"

The next second, this guy spread his wings and flew high again, spitting out fire from his mouth. Not only did the flying ants turn into ashes in an instant, but even several sections of the roots of the golden tree were burned by Lance Shanks and fell into the abyss.

"Lance Shanks, please reduce the flames a little!" Mongert shouted worriedly.

And that guy had already dived into a pit from which ants kept flying out. Then, a red flame suddenly appeared inside, and with a thunderous explosion, the entire pit was destroyed by Lance Shanks.

Red thunder intertwined, and flames wrapped around the stones, like fireworks falling on fire, illuminating the dark abyss a little.

The air was even filled with the aroma of roasted protein.

——Sure enough, the power of the ancient dragon is too violent.

It turns out that this guy was worried that Fia couldn't withstand her power, so after the initial flash of lightning and fire, he was chased and bitten by the flying ants?

——Lance Shanks, you are so gentle.

However, several of the root paths leading to that river were burned down by you, Asashi.

Gu Long flew back triumphantly, with fire still coming out of his mouth, as if he had burped: "Ah~ Great, great! How dare you offend Gu Long, I wonder where you got the courage from."

——It’s probably just an instinctive reaction to fight against invading creatures. Besides, I heard that the ants’ brains are all focused on the queen, so they may not necessarily feel fear.

······Don’t worry about those for now!

I twitched my eyelids, pointed at the roots of the golden trees that were still emitting blazing flames, and complained, "You are indeed straightforward, but how are we going to get through next? Lance Shanks."

"Oh, what's so difficult about this?" Lance Shanks said with disdain, flapping his wings, and hugged Fia and me on both sides, then used her two legs and claws to grab Mongert's shoulders and lifted him up.

All I can say is that, although the dragon has become smaller, its strength has not decreased at all. It is completely easy for a dragon to carry three people flying.

But the way Mongert was carried looked a little embarrassed, just like the prey caught by Lance Shanks.

The troublesome flying ants were completely eliminated by the ancient dragon, and soon she brought us to the bank of a large river at the bottom of the deep roots.

By the way, if we can find the floating sarcophagus from here and go down, we will drift to the Noklongen drainage channel under Nimgefu.

There were no incarnations of the golden tree guarding nearby. It was probably dealt with by Roger and "Hunting Death" D who had arrived earlier.

We went upstream along the river and passed through a forest of tree roots. At the end of the river, we saw a broken and nameless eternal city.

Outside the city, the river formed a huge arc, falling straight into the bottomless abyss.

If you go down the river from here, you will reach the Ansel River Basin. Roger and his men also ran to Lienia from here to meet us.

In the broken city, the melodious ancient bells kept ringing and echoing, like a song of mourning, echoing lingeringly.

In the houses or in the grass, curse frogs appeared in groups of three or five. However, under the power of the ancient dragon, they turned into rune light and dissipated in an instant.

The "Dead Sleeping Girl" Fia looked towards the back of the Eternal City. The roots of the golden trees extending from there were slightly black.

And on it, there were many black thorns.

A strong smell of death overflowed from it, and even the sky here was dyed a dark yellowish color.

"The dead Prince Godwin should be up there." I found the thickest tree root according to my memory in the game, and walked towards the back of the mountain with everyone.

But suddenly, a beam of bright golden light, like a storm, pierced towards us violently.

Lance Shanks didn't react immediately. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already been swept away by the storm and flew out, crashing headfirst into a roof.

"Lance Shanks!" I shouted in that direction subconsciously, and suddenly, I found that in the nameless eternal city below, or above the tangled roots, beams of golden light were shining one after another.

In the light, the figure of a headless Rodel Knight appeared.

Mongert could not help but become more alert: "Are these the Knights of the Temple guarding the prince? Be careful, Zero, protect the 'Dead Sleeping Girl'."

I haven't responded yet.

"You sinful lightless man." Another golden light suddenly flew out from below. A Tree Furnace spread out its wings of a hundred aspects of the Furnace and landed in front of us. The Tree Spear in his hand pointed directly at us and blocked our way. "Don't disturb my lord's peace."
