Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

Once it gets close, the magic stone colossus with the longbow will no longer be anything to fear.

I quickly took care of this big guy, and just in time, the White Wolf King came over with Letina and Weihele.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and walked forward, smiling and saying, "Good cover, Letina. Of course, there's also the Wolf King~"

"Awoo~" The howl of the wolf king echoed in the empty snowfield, scaring the animal spirits around it so much that they ran around in panic.

After taking a quick look around, Letina said softly, "It seems that this place is relatively safe for the time being. Master Ling, Fenlig and I will go back and bring everyone here."

"Well, please."

"It just so happens that I have a small matter that I want to discuss with General Ling." Weihele jumped off the wolf's back.

I looked at him with confusion.

After Letina rode the Wolf King away, Weihele asked me, "General Ling, do you know anything about my old friend Bagram?"

"Hmm? Senior 'White Wolf Warrior'?" I recalled the content about Bagram in the game.

——One of the founders who first entered the Round Table Hall, the name "White Wolf Warrior Ghost" was also because Bagram hoped in his heart that he could become a shadow-like existence like "Half Wolf" Blaze and "Black Sword" Malicus.

As for other information, the only one we know is from the text of the "Rogue Magician" Wehler, which shows that the two men seemed to have fallen out in the end because of their different philosophies.

But now it seems that neither of them has reached that point yet.

So I explained everything in detail: "To be honest, I don't know much about Senior Bagram. What happened to him?"

Weihele sighed slightly and explained, "Bagram is a man of few words. Instead of talking nonsense, he would rather take action directly... After all, he believes in the rigid treaty that 'Shadow' is just a person who executes orders. But recently, I feel that he seems to be more repellent than before."

"Oh?"

"Especially towards Ishtopia, I always feel that Bagram is deliberately avoiding him... Logically speaking, he should not be too cold towards Ishtopia. After all, that guy really lives up to the name of a knight, and he has been a peacemaker in the hall in the past. Originally, even Bagram rarely ignored him." Wehler said this with a puzzled tone as he looked at the convoy slowly approaching from the other side.

I also asked curiously: "Master Weihele, when did you discover that Bagram was a little different?"

"It should be after the King of Blessing summoned me and others again." Weihele said, "Before, wasn't there an uproar in the city of Rodel because the identity of the King of Blessing's Son of Evil Omen was exposed? The people of the Round Table Hall were also sent to various places in the Yatan Plateau to look for the traces of the 'Rebel' Bernal. After he came back, he seemed a little different."

—Bernard?

In the game, after joining the Volcano Mansion, Ati did cooperate with Bernal to hunt the "White Wolf Warrior Ghost" Bagram and the "Rogue Magician" Wehler next to me.

In reality, that guy had teamed up with Dianhuo A Ling before. When the other party was planning to meet Dianhuo Sanzhi, he went alone to challenge the illusion of Golden Gefulei, thus exposing the true face of the King of Blessing... After that, he disappeared.

Weihler specifically mentioned this matter now, and I'm afraid he has other intentions.

I nodded. "I understand. I will go talk to Senior Bagram later."

"Then I'll have to trouble General Ling."

"...By the way, Master, can you come with me?" I asked. "I'm not good at identifying magic of disguise."

Weihele was silent for a while, then shook his head. "Sorry, there was a slight conflict between him and me. If I were to stay by your side, I'm afraid it would hinder you... As for what kind of magic it is, the easiest way to identify it is to touch it. After all, most of us have the power of Rune's blessing to some extent. Through contact, we can disrupt the magic on the surface."

——That’s right. In the game, the disguises and mimicry veils of the demi-humans can be removed with just a touch.

Since Wehler said so, maybe we can ask Ishutopia for help then.

Senior Alperich, although he joined the expedition team in the snowfield this time, he seemed to have been suppressing a certain nature of his own. He was so obedient that I was a little scared. In the next second, he would pull out a scythe to chop people.

That one is the "Crazy Tongue", yet he is also very taciturn.

Moreover, I still remember that he said a long time ago: When I arrive in Rodel, he will re-try me and then decide whether to kill me.

After a long time, the White Wolf King Fenlig led the caravan through this long sky road.

Before dawn, Yushlo Samir suggested that we rest for a night in the safer forest area, or better yet, wait and see the weather conditions tomorrow before continuing our journey.

Well, since I started from Rodel, I have experienced many things, big and small.

I was also a little tired, so I agreed with him.

Paris and his knights, whose bodies have turned into runes, do not need to eat or sleep, so they are left to keep watch at night and look after Dianhuo A Ling.

The accompanying Rodel soldiers helped us, the Faded Ones, to find some dry firewood. We cooked a little, roasted some food, and then rested on the spot.

And I looked at "White Wolf Warrior Ghost" Bagram carefully.

Although, as Wehler said, the other party rarely spoke, but after taking off the mask, he did match my memory of the game, with a face full of stubble and dishevelled hair.

——Well, after all, what the War Ghost longs for is the shadow beast.

As usual, Ishtopia gathered around the companions at the round table happily, and even Alexander was pulled over.

If you just look at it, the five people seem to be having a great time.

Moreover, if it is true as I guessed, Bernal used magic to change his face and pretended to be Bagram, he would be exposed in front of Wehler.

——If you want to know more, maybe you should find an opportunity to talk to the other person alone.

After all, I am a general now, and the other party should not ignore me.

"Lord Zero." At this moment, Letina appeared beside me again.

"What's wrong, Letina?" I asked curiously.

"Perhaps you already know that if you walk a little further north from here, you will reach the city of Sol that you mentioned to the Archbishop of Fire before. The other half of the symbol leading to the holy tree should be found there... This is the secret treasure that Lady Michaela left in the city." Letina said to me.

I also recalled Letina's branch line and nodded: "Yeah, I know."

However, the most important task at the moment is to go to the giant fire cauldron and light the flame... But if I think about it carefully, if everything goes well, after that, I should board the broken sky city of Fam Azra, and I won’t be back here for a while... But it seems a waste of time to go to Sol City now. After all, I will encounter the calling ship and the bird of death on the way, and I might even have to fight with Old Oni.

The more things pile up, the more things will go wrong, causing the plan to collapse completely.

Perhaps the kind girl noticed my hesitation and consideration, and she said considerately: "Master Ling, there is no need to worry about it. I just want you to lend me the Wolf King Fenlig after lighting the cauldron. I should be able to handle the matter of Thor City by myself."

"Isn't it too dangerous?" I blurted out subconsciously.

At this moment, Millicent's voice rang out from the side: "Zero, and the girl named Letina, sorry to bother you. Can you tell me a little about the matter of Sol City and the Holy Tree that you mentioned?"

——······Oh, yes, Millicent and Pollyanna are going there too!

As for Pollyanna, she seemed particularly curious and interested in Finnlig, and was trying to touch its fur carefully.

I was overjoyed and quickly introduced Millicent to Letina.

Then, Millicent said sincerely: "If that's the case, Miss Letina, can you let me, Millicent, and Pollyanna go with you? Although I am not very talented, I know a little about swordsmanship and can protect you."

——I know a little about sword skills...Mibao, don't be too modest.

Letina also nodded: "Then I will trouble Lady Millicent and your sister Lady Pollyanna then."

I also continued, "I'm sorry, I may not find time to go to Sol City, but if you two want to go to the Holy Tree, please be sure to take me with you... I'm very interested in Michaela and Marennia~"

——Of course the focus is on the latter, after all, Michaela is not there.

And Letina smiled and nodded in response: "Of course, Master Zero."

--Very good.

So I told them in detail about the dangers they might encounter on the road and the theoretical ways to deal with them.

The sky gradually brightened without anyone noticing.
