Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 127: Taste the Whip
Patch swallowed, too shocked to speak for a moment.

When he saw that set of equipment, he was greatly shocked.

"Shouldn't, shouldn't, shouldn't!"

"Why would this equipment... appear at the border?!"

'No, that's not right. '

"Why would I have such a thought? I don't recognize this equipment at all."

"Speaking of this voice, and that horse, it really is a white consciousness."

"Then why does this outfit of his look so familiar to me, as if I've seen it somewhere before..."

As he saw this luxurious and domineering armor, a picture of an era suddenly emerged in Patch's mind.

It was an extremely powerful dynasty that was at its peak.

A king with earth-shaking power, four knights with different styles, and an invincible army.

There is also an equally powerful prince known as the Dragon Hunter God of War.

This set of equipment is exactly what the prince should wear.

Patch didn't know what this inexplicable fragment was about, and he didn't know himself very well either.

All Patch knew was that he had inexplicably come to this borderland, alone, and knew nothing about his past.

He felt like he was not from this world, and everything here was unfamiliar to him.

Perhaps all faded people will not take this sentence seriously.

After all, their hometown is outside the border area. It is normal to feel that the world has changed when they are away from their hometown.

But Patch felt that this state seemed to be the norm, as if... he had maintained this state and traveled to many places before.

Maybe it came from another world.

Perhaps it was influenced by the fragments of information obtained from peers in other worlds.

However, these cannot be confirmed, and no one knows what Patch's exact condition is.

After all, even Patch himself didn't know what had happened to him.

Patch, it's really amazing.

Bai Shi didn't notice the shocked expression on Patch's face, and he just swept his sword forward.

The storm waves wrapped in thunder and lightning surged over, and the skeletons of the dead were broken apart in the wind and waves, and were crushed into bone fragments, never to be resurrected again.

Lightning swam back and forth in the lake, leaving charred scars on the skeletons of the dead.

With just one strike, the group of dead-borns fell down like harvested wheat.

Bai Shi was not particularly satisfied when he saw the power of this attack.

The lightning carried by the Dragon Hunting Sword and Spear alone is not enough to have such power, and Bai Shi cannot pray for lightning.

The lightning that fell from the sky was the war ashes that Bai Shi had taken out from Stonewell's warehouse earlier and attached to the dragon hunting sword.

This fighting skill is called Thunder Strike.

You can summon a bolt of lightning from the sky, wrap it around the sword, and release the power of the lightning. The remaining lightning will wrap around the weapon and help in battle.

The special effects are cool, but it’s a pity that I haven’t fully mastered it yet, so the damage is average.

I wonder if my skills will improve after I completely master the lightning system.

This seemed to be what Greg and his knights carried when they left Rodel, and now it was in Bai Shi's possession.

Bai Shi hasn't used something like War Ash for a long time. Although its power is limited, it is still really cool.

This was the first time Bai Shi took action after obtaining this set of equipment.

On the one hand, we need to quickly rescue and eliminate these undead creatures and save Patch and the others.

He still had to settle the score with Patchy for daring to use his name.

On the other hand, of course, it’s because my hands are itchy.

If you don’t try out new equipment after getting it, are you still a human being?
There is an international shooting range in the game - you can practice at the front of the level, but this is reality, and Bai Shi can't use his own people to test his sword.

It just so happens that abnormal life forms like the Dead Born are perfect for training.

Patch and the others were greatly shocked when they saw that most of the dead borns were killed by this attack. They all stared at Bai Shi with wide eyes.

As early as when the lightning fell and wrapped around Baizhi's sword and spear, D, Patch and others had already come ashore from the lake.

They couldn't be so stupid as to think that Bai Shi summoned a bolt of lightning just to look cooler when he appeared.

No one except Patch has discovered Bai Shi's true identity.

Pakhi recovers from the shock.

Never mind. I don’t know what happened anyway, so just pretend it never happened.

Then Patch returned to his usual frivolous self and shouted loudly:

"Haha, see! This is the great power of Lord Storm King Baishi!"

He had clearly said before that he and Bai Shi were good brothers, but now he suddenly changed his words and called Bai Shi "Sir" without any hesitation.

The other faded ones listened to Patch's words and didn't pay attention to Patch's sudden change of heart. They just kept exclaiming:
"What!? This is Master Baishi?"

“Too… too strong!”

"What a power this is!"

D didn't say anything, but kept looking Bai Shi up and down.

In the Hall of the Round Table, even if he was not interested, D could not avoid knowing something about the Storm King.

Of course, he had never seen Bai Shi before, and he learned about him through rumors.

I just didn't expect that when I actually encountered it, it would be even more exaggerated than the rumors.

D Opening reminder:
"These Deadborn cannot be completely eliminated unless they are attacked with something imbued with divine power."

"It won't be long before they get up from the ground and continue to hurt passers-by."

Bai Shi nodded at D, but there was nothing he could do since he didn't have any holy weapon at the moment.

In this case, we should continue to destroy the skeletons of these dead borns and turn them into powder that cannot be resurrected.

Bai Shi drove the Torret towards the calling ship.

Bai Shi submerged the blade of his sword and spear into the lake water, directing a large amount of lightning into the water.

Those particularly powerful Dead Borns who were not damaged in the first attack wanted to repeat the trick and reassemble their bodies.

However, under the continuous lightning attack, all the dead borns that had been broken up could only struggle repeatedly, constantly being hurt by lightning, and were unable to regroup.

The lake water covered half of Torret's horse legs, but under Bai Shi's control, the lightning did not hurt Torret at all.

The white consciousness is constantly observing the performance of the dead born.

The Deadborn in this world seem to be a bit more difficult to deal with than those in the game.

The Deathborn is a little different from the one in the game. It seems impossible to kill it completely by adding damage when it is in a broken state.

However, if you use the power of the Holy Law, you can still kill it easily, and crushing the bones with physical means can also prevent resurrection.

But no matter what, these dead borns are just targets for the white consciousness.

The rest of the Deadborn were still trying to pounce on him, but Torrett easily jumped over these slow guys with a double jump.

Bai Shi arrived in front of the calling ship unhindered.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Calling Ship wanted to teleport away again.

But Bai Shi stabbed the calling ship with his sword swiftly and hit it before it left.

A huge hole was pierced through the hull of the Voice Calling Ship.

Fortunately, this calling ship is not a completely physical object, otherwise it would have sunk by now.

The skeleton on the calling ship was teleported to another place. Looking at the hole that appeared on the bow of its ship, it seemed to be angry and emitted a red light all over its body.

The skeleton on the call ship raised his brass trombone and began to play loudly.

The lake beneath his boat began to glow purple.

Then, the lake water surged up like a fountain, lifting the calling boat and holding it up to the sky.

The captain's call was pointed towards Bai Shi, and huge waves surged towards Bai Shi like a tsunami.

Bai Shi faced the huge waves and swept with sword and spear.

A storm with lightning gushed out from the swords and spears, and even Patch and others in the distance felt a strong wind.

The wave that came like a tsunami could not even hold on for a moment and was instantly cut in half.

The purple lake water was swept up by the storm and shot out at a speed faster than when it came, drawing the shape of the storm.

The calling boat that was supported on top of the lake lost its support and fell from the air.

The skeleton was a little panicked, as if it had experienced a plane crash.

Bai Shi once again raised his sword and spear high up, slashing it down vertically.

The sword struck the skeleton on the calling ship hard, splitting half of his bones into pieces.

The Calling Ship was close to collapse, but the Deathborn was not so easy to kill. The destruction of half of its body did not affect its teleportation.

But this is just a last-ditch effort.

The calling ship was directly teleported to a place very far away from here.

This was no longer a lake, but hard, dry ground.

But the calling ship can move just as easily on this land.

This is the farthest place the Screaming Ship can escape to.

If it just waits a few more seconds, it can release its teleportation ability again and escape from this group of people.

It’s a pity that even if it escapes far away, it cannot escape the fate of being destroyed.

Several pyroxene comets with long tails of light shot towards the back of the calling ship and completely shattered it.

I saw that Bai Shi had taken out a staff inlaid with pyroxene in his left hand at some point.

The comets just now were released by him.

Pyroxene Comet was already one of the most advanced magics he could learn.

The 36-point intelligence requirement, like Samir's Ice Storm, is the limit of what Bai Shi can learn now.

More advanced magic is not something that ordinary people can learn; it is the domain of true geniuses.

However, Bai Shi is not far from these areas, just a little bit of Rune away.

The Calling Ship was completely broken up, and it did not continue to reassemble its body like ordinary dead borns.

Instead, an object that looked like a black tree root appeared on the ground where it disappeared.

All the deadborn nearby who were struggling to reassemble their bodies were now motionless.

'Death' has been banished from here... temporarily.

Bai Shi rode Torret over and looked at the dead roots on the ground that were emitting the breath of death. He had no intention of picking them up with his hands.

As soon as the dead root fell to the ground, it emitted an ominous black aura.

Black thorns also grew on the ground nearby.

D ran over, took out a holy seal, and then released a prayer.

As the golden light flashed, the dead root was wrapped in a layer of golden light, completely isolating it from the outside world.

D picked up the dead root, handed it to Bai Shi, and introduced it:

"This thing is the root of death, the source that gave birth to the dead."

"Please do not touch it casually, as it will lead to defilement and taboo. Be sure to seal it with the power of the Holy Law."

"If it's inconvenient for you to handle it, I can do it for you."

D is a little worried now, as he is afraid that someone might underestimate the harm of dead roots.

Bai Shi didn't take over the dead root.

"It seems like there's no use for me, and there's no way to preserve it."

"How do you usually deal with it?"

D refers to a direction.

"Dead roots must be destroyed, and there are several ways to do that."

"There is a beast temple at the end of the dragon tomb. There is a beast priest named Gulanger there. I have known him for some time."

"He is collecting and devouring dead roots. I usually give them to him."

"If you need, I can introduce you to a trade with him."

"He has many treasures there, some of which might interest you."

Bai Shi thought about it and decided that he would have to meet this beast priest in the future.

After attending the battle festival and resolving all the issues concerning Gailey, I can go to the Dragon Tomb on the way.

"Then I'll leave it to you. I'm very curious about the beast priest you mentioned."

"But let's talk about this later."

"Mr. Patch over there, if you run away again, you're going to end up in trouble."

Patch, who was tiptoeing towards the distance, stopped where he was.

"Hahaha, what? What about running away?"

"Haha, hahahaha..."

Patch touched his bald head, which still shone even at night, and tried to cover up the past with a smile.

Bai Shi rolled off Torrett and sneered at Patch.

"Isn't this the Savior Patch?"

"Why would you run away when you see your good brother?"

Patch has done a lot of mean things in previous games.

It's just that you generally can't punish him casually. After all, for the sake of gameplay, you rarely fight with him.

The best you can do is beat him half to death and then watch him kneel down and beg for mercy.

I couldn’t do anything to you in the game before, but now if I catch you, you’ll have to suffer the consequences.

Patch knew that this matter could not be easily dismissed, so he just stayed there obediently.

After being completely caught, Patch was no longer panicked. He felt like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"Oh, haha! Ugh, I'm so sorry."

"So, what do you want to do with me? Don't worry, I will accept it obediently."

Bai Shi was still a little surprised.

I had thought that Patch would be cunning and try to get away with it, but I didn't expect that he would actually plead guilty.

If you think about it carefully, it does seem to have some of Patch's style.

If the little trick succeeds, then you will get carried away.
If you meet a tough guy, you will kneel down and beg for mercy.

If he gets caught because of his complacency and falls, he will obediently swallow the bitter fruit.

At times, he would attack him proactively, and even not harbor hatred towards him the second time he met him.

Maybe sometimes, it is this kind of character in him that makes people love and hate him.

"Oh, you actually pleaded guilty."

Patch shrugged and gave his usual smile.

"Oh, there's nothing I can do. Now that I've been caught by the real boss, I have to confess my crime."

"I was caught using your name, there's nothing I can do about it."

"I will endure any punishment, I will do anything."

"Then let's just let go of all the grudges like flowing water. This is my life motto, hehe."

Bai Shi laughed twice and patted Patch on the shoulder:

"Since you're so reasonable, I'm relieved. I was originally thinking about what to do with you if you refused to admit it."

"In that case, you should go to the tunnels of Nimgefu and dig for three years."

Patch's smile gradually froze on his face, and his expression became somewhat interesting.

"Uh, mining?"

Bai Shi nodded and increased the strength of his hand on Patch's shoulder.

"Yes, mining."

"My army now needs a lot of forging stones to strengthen its weapons. I'm sure the savior, Lord Patch, will be willing to help me."

"This is a major matter concerning the border area. It would be bad if it is delayed."

"And you just said you would do anything."

"I know, Patch, you're a guy who keeps his word, right?"

Humph, next I will put you in the mine to mine, so that you can experience what it feels like to be a slave.

My whip is also very fast, come and have a taste of it!

Patch seemed to accept his fate and chuckled.

"Yes, of course. I, Patch, am the epitome of chivalry and integrity."

"Don't worry, I will change my ways and it won't happen again."

'I won't be caught by you next time.'

Patch thought so in his mind.
