Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

With a stroke of the scarlet blade, it slashed from bottom to top in the opposite direction of the cassock. In the sea of ​​flowers at the foot of the Holy Tree of Michaela, the clear and loud sound of blade collision resounded, causing a large area of ​​flowers around it to bend.

Although the attack was still blocked by Marennia, after all, she had performed a complete set of Water Bird Dance and then met my final full-strength attack.

Even the god was chopped down and fell backwards. He rolled over and barely used his prosthetic sword to poke the ground to support himself.

There was a long scar on her chest caused by the bloody blade, which exuded a deep red aura of corruption.

And I was naturally gasping for breath.

After all, I was more focused than ever before when dodging the fluttering of water birds. Even the footsteps of Malenia seemed to be slowed down in my eyes.

——Of course, there was also a lot of luck involved. Fortunately, the opponent's blade just scraped across my skin, leaving a slight stinging sensation.

As a result, both of us had consumed a lot of physical energy, and for a moment, we might not even have enough strength to raise our hands.

However, there is another person between us.

The teardrop replica held the Kalia pyroxene staff in its hand, which flashed with bright blue light, and continuously swung magic gravel at Marlennia, not giving the other party any chance to breathe.

Marlennia dodged in panic, but was hit by the pyroxene magic gravel several times.

I took the opportunity to take a few deep breaths, and after adjusting my breathing, I picked up Nightfire and rushed towards Marennia again.

The method to break the Water Bird Dance is also very effective against ordinary flowing swordsmanship. Often by looking at the opponent's footsteps, you can judge what move Marennia is going to perform next, which also makes it convenient to choose to dodge or block.

After all, although the sword moves are dazzling, in fact, no matter how many attacks are made, they are all swung by one sword. If you want to dodge, just dodge the key blow.

The opponent's agile and swift footsteps are the foundation of everything.

——Could it be that Greg saw through the key points of the Flowing Water Sword Technique, and that’s why he knelt down and licked Lianlian’s jade feet, giving hints to future generations? !

I go!

The opponent's sudden knife almost cut off my scalp. I had better concentrate and stop making fun of Xiao Ge.

While Marlennia was dodging the magic of the imitating tears, I found her weakness and swung my sword, causing the blood blade to fall on her back.

Marennia staggered forward a few steps and was faced head-on with the huge broom star.

I quickly chopped it down continuously and completely broke the broom star into pieces. At the same time, I had already gathered all my strength and slashed at Marlennia from the side with a lion-like blow.

Two fists are no match for four hands, and Marennia was once again knocked flying by me.

But just like those noble knights, the undefeated Valkyrie was like a zombie who had not been hit in the vitals, and she stood up again.

Magic - meteor shower.

Several blue meteors fell towards Malenia. She could only spread her wings and fly high again unyieldingly. She used the dancing of water birds to quickly knock down the meteors, and once again, with the shadow of the knife, she rolled towards me who was relatively close.

——The distance this time is a little longer, and Marennia was forced to use this move, and even the speed of the sword swinging is not as fast as before.

I glanced at the teardrop replica, then immediately used the hound pace and moved closer.

Just as the opponent was catching up with me, I quickly dodged the water bird's blade and flipped behind Marennia in order to catch the position and movement of the opponent's feet.

As expected, Marennia changed her tactics, she knelt on one knee, turned around quickly, pulled the long blade and slashed at me again.

As I dodged the horizontal slash, I saw Malenia land on one foot again, so I quickly used the hound step, slid to the right side where the opponent had not yet put away the knife, hid behind Malenia, and rolled to the side, avoiding her attack before Malenia could make a move.

As Millicent told me, it's not that difficult to avoid the frenzy of waterfowl if you just catch the flow of the water.

At this moment, I was like a loach, following Marennia's footsteps and hiding in her blind spot, so that no amount of attacks could catch me.

Soon, there was a gap in the opponent's attack.

Even at the moment when Malenia turned around and jumped, the replicant teardrop, which had been waiting for an opportunity on the side, predicted the opponent's movements and accumulated magic power.

A torrent, a long rainbow runs through.

Origin Magic——Comet Azrael!

Marennia had no time to dodge, and she forcibly interrupted the water bird on me, and slashed at the torrent of magic with a sword.

However, there was a huge disparity in power, and she was thrown away, with even her armor completely torn apart by the torrent of Comet Azr, exposing her corroded body covered with scales like butterfly wings.

With the pace of a hound, he trotted forward quickly.

The moment Marennia raised her head, I slashed her down with my sword.

"You lose, Marenia!"

With a loud bang, the Valkyrie's winged helmet was cut into two pieces by me and fell to the ground.

Marlennia fell into the sea of ​​flowers again and rolled several times before stopping.

——I'm a little tired. Let me take a breath and recover my energy, but obviously, it's not time to end yet.

I was just about to move forward and attack to suppress Malenia, but suddenly, a scarlet, scorching flame emanated from her body, engulfing the surroundings like a tsunami.

I was suppressed by this sudden arrogance and for a moment, I was unable to take a step forward.

——Could it be that during that short time when he fell to the ground just now, Marennia pulled out the needle again? !

The scarlet corruption spread rapidly, causing the flowers it contaminated to wither instantly, and the entire sea of ​​flowers turned into decay.

Countless scarlet Ionian butterflies, as if they had seen a warm flame, flew in from the hollow of the sacred tree, forming the drooping wings of the goddess of corruption.

"Feel honored, the faded one... the scarlet flower of corruption will bloom again." Marennia really flew into the air, "See what true 'creepy' is."

Like a giant butterfly, all the rotten things around were attracted by the power of Malenia and gathered around her.

Withered flowers, dead branches and even the scattered branches of the corrupt tree spirit were all absorbed.

On the way closer, everything turned into nutrients for corruption.

The scarlet light grew thicker and thicker.

——Oh no, it’s the prayer after the phase transition “Scarlet Ionia”!

"Brother Teardrop, let's go!" I ran back quickly, and Marennia had curled up and turned into the core of a flower.

Combat skill - hound step!

Perhaps, the range of this move in reality will be larger than that in the game, so we must create distance as quickly as possible!

"Cough cough cough-"

Suddenly I heard a slight cough beside my ear, and then I noticed that Millicent, who was deeply affected by it, was also dragged by this force towards Marennia.

He hurried over to pick her up. Just like Marlenia, Millicent's face had been completely corroded by the scarlet corruption, and her eyes were blinded by the Ionian flower.

But she recognized me the first time and squeezed out a very weak breath from between her teeth: "No... Don't worry about me, Zero..."

I ignored him and gritted my teeth to endure the corrosive pain coming from Millicent, and got her out of this sea of ​​flowers first.

“······Don’t worry······I’m just going back to where I should be going back······Zero······Let me go.” As she said that, I don’t know where she got the strength from, but she actually pushed me away.

"Millicent!" I turned around in surprise, but she had already fallen in the sea of ​​flowers, never to move again.

Looking up, I saw the scarlet Ionian flower already blossoming in the air and falling rapidly in my direction.

In the dry and fiery air, there was only one death-like voice:

“…Be corrupt!”
