Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 211 Whose dog is this? Rua! (6k)

Bai Shi didn't expect that there was such a story between Gu Long and Fei Long.

Especially that Beile, he sounds so powerful just by listening to him.

Even though the Dragon King Platonshanks was already injured, the ancient dragons actually used the word "serious injury" to describe the damage he caused to the Dragon King. I'm afraid the Dragon King was indeed seriously injured at that time.

Celine Shanks said that the Dragon King had lost one head after returning, but Bai Shi remembered that the Dragon King had lost three heads in total.

In other words, if the Dragon King did not experience any other battles after returning, then the remaining two heads were knocked off by the dragon named Beile?
This Beile's strength must be terrifying.

Bai Shi is very strong now, but he thinks he still can't fight without Feng Ling Yue Ying and Dragon King.

In the Elden Ring system, each of the kings and gods is extremely terrifying when taken alone, not to mention that the king is often even more terrifying in strength.

After all, the kings and gods of every law era ruled the entire border area with their powerful strength.

Bai Shi is now only able to compete with powerful demigods, and there is still a gap between him and the absolutely powerful ones above him.

If Bai Shi were to rank the strength of the people at the border, then the highest tier, T0, would definitely be guys like the Beast of Elden and the gods.

The combination of God and King is slightly lower than them, ranking T0.5.

Individual gods or kings are ranked T1 by Bai Shi.

As for Bai Shi's current position, he felt that he was probably at T2.

That is to say, he is ranked together with other powerful demigods who possess the Great Rune, with the same strength as Latan, Monget, and Malenia.

Such strength is already very strong at the current border, but when facing stronger monsters, the gap is still quite large.

The border area has a long history, and the powerful people who have appeared there are unimaginable.

It’s just that the border area is now in a period of dynasty change and a period of transition. The number of peerless strong men can be counted on one hand, so this kind of strength is impressive.

This is also one aspect of the Dharma Ending Age...

No, this is the direct manifestation of the Dharma Ending Age.

Bai Shi thought about the information in Celine Shanks' words for a while before speaking again.

Bai Shi asked Celine Shanks:

"So, Gu Long and Fei Long are enemies now?"

Celine Sanks pondered for a moment, nodded, and then shook her head.

"The flying dragon population is quite large and numerous."

"So not all flying dragons obey Beile."

"After all, from a racial perspective, it is normal for there to be individuals with all kinds of ideas."

"At that time, there were even flying dragons that took the initiative to fight alongside the ancient dragons."

"Of course, there were also ancient dragons who betrayed the Dragon King and rebelled with the flying dragons."

"The vast majority of the flying dragons who rebelled with Beile were executed on the spot."

"The remaining dragons bear unforgivable guilt and must undergo the Dragon Feast ritual as punishment."

"But in fact, the relationship between the ancient dragons and the flying dragons is not completely hostile, otherwise we would have slaughtered flying dragons everywhere in the border area long ago."

“How should I put it? This is a rather complicated issue.”

"Whether there is hatred or not depends on the individual's thoughts."

Celine Sanxon paused and re-examined her views on the dragons.

"We hate Beile because he started a rebellion and severely injured our king."

"Although the flying dragons participated in the betrayal, the era of our ancient dragons ended when the Elden Ring was shattered. It was not because of the flying dragons."

"I don't actually hate flying dragons that much. This is also what many ancient dragons think."

"For an ancient dragon, such deep hatred is a poison that will twist its mind."

"Pain and anger, these negative emotions are always easier to recall than happiness and beauty."

"Because of their long lives, ancient dragons can even be said to be quite indifferent to emotions."

"I can understand the behavior of humans and other creatures, and know what emotions their words and actions represent."

"But for Gu Long, it is incredible to truly have human-like emotions."

Celine Shanks suddenly asked Bai Shi a question:
"Master, do you think there is any difference between me and humans in my human form?"

“That’s the question I want to ask myself.”

Bai Shi thought back to his communication with Celine Shanks so far, and it felt quite natural, with nothing strange about it.

“I don’t think there’s any difference.”

"The emotions you display are no different from those of a normal human being to me."

But Celine Shanks shook her head.

"I always thought I had real human emotions, but I was wrong."

"True feelings, true love, I still know nothing about."

“I only realized this after I came out of the ice.”

"If I really had feelings, I would have been killed by them in the long freeze."

"I just know how to behave like a normal creature."

"It's just knowing what words can express what emotions, and what emotions should be expressed at certain moments."

"For Gu Long, such emotions are sweet poison, desirable but extremely dangerous."

"Since you unblocked me, I have become even more eager for true love, to the point of going crazy."

"But, I, who am the ancient dragon inside, can't really be touched..."

Bai Shi actually didn't quite understand why Celine Shanks suddenly became sad.

To Bai Shi, Celine Shanks was nothing like she said she was.

On the contrary, she expressed her emotions quite strongly.

Judging from the final performance, understanding emotions and knowing what kind of emotions to express, doesn’t this count as having true emotions?

Even if it is fake, if it can be pretended for a lifetime, isn't it true love?

But this kind of thing is too mysterious and too subjective.

Since Celine Shanks herself thinks it doesn't exist, then let's just assume it doesn't exist.

For the immortal species, understanding human emotions and not understanding human emotions are two different kinds of sorrow.

Bai Shi suddenly recalled that Celine Sanx had shown interest in Dragon Feast, and couldn't help but ask again:
"Since you don't have such a deep hatred for flying dragons, why did you suddenly ask me about the dragon feast?"

Celine Shanks replied:

"I don't really hate flying dragons that much, but that doesn't matter."

"For me, if there is an opportunity to promote the Dragon Feast Ceremony, I will take the initiative to do it."

"Not out of hatred, but because it is also one of my duties."

Bai Shi nodded.

"So that's it."

"So, do you want to promote the Dragon Feast Ceremony among the Dragon Blood Legion?"

Celine Shanks smiled.

"How is it, Master?"

"In this way, the strength of your army will increase quickly."

Bai Shi is a little hesitant now.

He hasn't decided yet what to do with the dragons.

However, Bai Shi finally rejected Celine Shanks.

"I'm not planning on implementing a large-scale dragon feast in the army yet."

"There is no hatred between Feilong and me, and now is not the time to resort to any means necessary for power."

If Bai Shi wanted to, he could use the excuse of supporting the ancient dragons to wage war against the flying dragons and give them all to Tutu.

As long as you do this, you can obtain a large amount of runes, and the combat power of your subordinates will increase rapidly.

But Bai Shi still can't do such a thing.

To put it bluntly, Bai Shi knew that there was actually no hatred between himself and the flying dragons.

To Bai Shi, flying dragons are just one of the ordinary creatures in the border area.

It is normal for individuals to fight with each other, and he has killed a flying dragon before.

But the concept of using force to massacre a race is completely different.

Moreover, Bai Shi did not intend to let his warriors continue to feast on the dragon.

Dragon Feast is a dangerous ritual after all. At the end of this road, they will be devoured by desire and transformed into lava earth dragons.

And once they turned into lava earth dragons, Bai Shi would have to dispose of them.

Even if they chose this path themselves, Bai Shi couldn't just sit back and watch them all become like that.

After figuring these things out, Bai Shi no longer worried about them.

Anyway, we can also let the Dragon Blood Knights learn the prayers of dragon faith and learn about thunder and lightning.

In this way, your strength will always increase and will not weaken.

Since Bai Shi had already said so, Celine Shanks didn't say anything more.

"By the way, after the contract was concluded, is this on the back of my hand also a holy mark?"

Bai Shi raised his right hand. This was where the Holy Seal of Dragon Feast used to be.

After the contract with Celine Sanx, this holy mark became the emblem of the ancient dragon faith.

Bai Shi has never tried to use prayer, but he can feel the power contained in it.

Celine Shanks nodded.

"Yes, this is the mark that represents our ancient dragon faith."

"When using the ancient dragon's lightning, its power will be enhanced."

"In fact, you can already use some of the power of thunder and lightning now."

Bai Shi looked at the emblem on his hand and tried to activate its power, but unfortunately failed.

Celine Sanx stretched out her hand and placed it on the ancient dragon holy mark on the back of Bai Shi's hand.

“Please remember the feeling that follows.”

Soon, a red lightning was released from the holy mark under the guidance of Selene Sanx.

The red lightning wrapped around Bai Shi's body, covering his entire body.

Bai Shi felt it and found that the general effect was additional lightning damage and a slight increase in attack power.

Afterwards, Bai Shi and Celine Shanks made an appointment to start learning the ancient dragon's prayer from her tomorrow.

Bai Shi put the wolf egg in a corner, then lay down to rest.
-
Bai Shi noticed something strange on his face and immediately woke up from his sleep.

There seems to be some wet liquid on your face?

It's a little warm and sticky...

Is this saliva? Or something else...

Bai Shi didn't open his eyes, but thought anxiously in his heart, should he continue pretending to sleep?
Well, how should I put it, Bai Shi suddenly thought of some strange scenes in the game.

So Bai Shi is now a little afraid of the scene he will see when he opens his eyes.

If you really see something strange, how should you react?
Another drop of warm and sticky liquid dripped onto Bai Shi's face.

Bai Shi thought about it and decided to open his eyes to find out what was going on.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a furry little ball in front of him.

A tongue protruded from its mouth, hanging at the side of its mouth, and the warm and sticky liquid was dripping from its tongue and mouth.

Seeing Bai Shi awaken, the strange little creature howled excitedly:
"rua!"

I was shocked, why is that sound?

Bai Shi sat up and looked at the little guy beside him.

After seeing the whole thing, I realized it was a wolf cub, with fluffy hair the color of blueberries all over its body.

Because it was just born, the initial fluff has not yet faded, making it look round.

It's quite cute, making people want to rub it a few times.

It may take several molting sessions before the fluffy hair grows into smooth hair.

Bai Shi's gaze passed over the little wolf cub and looked at Melina beside him.

Melina was squatting beside Bai Shi, looking at the newly hatched wolf cub with a doting look on her face.

As expected, girls have no resistance to furry creatures.

Bai Shi grabbed the little ball of fur.

It looked at Bai Shi, its tongue hanging out, and it was gasping for breath.

Bai Shi held it up and looked at it, carefully observing its appearance.

I saw that it had similar blue-green fur to the giant wolf, but the color was a little lighter. I didn't know if it would change color in the future or if it would remain like this.

When you part the hair of this little wolf, you can see some tiny scales underneath its hair.

But perhaps because they were just born, these scales have not yet completely hardened.

You can see many spiral horns on its body.

These spiral horns are concentrated on the back and shoulders, perhaps for defense.

Bai Shi thought about the giant wolf that gave birth to him. The position of their horns seemed to be different.

It seems that the position of this horn is not inherited, but grows independently for each individual.

Bai Shi looked at the place where the egg was previously placed.

All that was left was an empty thick eggshell.

Bai Shi looked at Melina again.

“When did it hatch?”

Melina thought about it.

"It was probably just a few minutes ago. It came to you as soon as it hatched."

"And then you woke up."

Bai Shi scratched his messy hair slightly.

"It's strange. I didn't actively incubate it, so how come it suddenly hatched?"

Melina thought for a moment and expressed her guess:

"If it's true as Celine Sanks said, that once this creature is born, the old ones will die."

"Hatching quickly from an egg, this should be a skill that must be mastered."

"After all, in the wild, no one would come to take care of a newly born baby."

"In that case, perhaps the infancy of this creature will be quite short to ensure its survival."

Bai Shi touched the head of the little wolf in front of him and poked its nose.

It immediately stretched out its long tongue and licked its nose.

"Remember this, from now on you will be called Shiv."

Shiv called out happily twice and seemed to be very satisfied with the name.

Then, Schiff looked at Bai Shi eagerly.

Bai Shi had no idea what it wanted to do, so he could only stare at it.

So the man and the wolf just stared at each other for a while.

Until Melina seemed to understand Schiff's thoughts and said to Bai Shi:

"Do you think he might be hungry?"

Bai Shi thought about it and it seemed possible.

Shiv also called out twice at the right time.

Huh? Wait, can it see Melina?

Bai Shi suddenly discovered this.

Just when Melina finished speaking, Schiff actually responded.

Bai Shi turned to Melina and shared his discovery:
"Melina, it seems it can see you."

Melina was a little surprised and looked towards Shiv.

Sure enough, Schiff's little head had also turned to follow Bai Shi's gaze.

Melina waved at it, to see if it would respond.

Seeing Melina waving at it, Shiv howled happily, and its head kept shaking along with Melina's hand.

“It really works!”

In Melina's impression, this seemed to be the first animal that could see her, except for Torret.

Bai Shi recalled what Celine Shanks had said before, that this species was very similar to the ancestral spirit, and he had some guesses in his mind.

Ancestral spirits are peculiar species that are related to the cycle of life and death.

Perhaps this is why Schiff has the ability to communicate with souls.

And the horns seem to be something that is somewhat related to the soul.

Torrett also showed up and nudged Schiff on the ground with his nose, seeming to like it as well.

But now the key question is: Schiff is hungry, what should he eat?

Newly born wolf cubs should drink milk.

But where can I get milk for it?
The Dragon Blood Legion did not bring any livestock with them, so there was no way to find any animals to feed the children.

Bai Shi secretly glanced at Melina who was interacting in a friendly manner with Sif.

No, no, after all, Melina is a ghost now.

Even if it's not a ghost, it's impossible.

Besides, Bai Shi himself hasn’t even had the chance to drink it yet.

Bai Shi thought of Celine Shanks who was next door.

Well, although she is quite plump in human form, she is still an ancient dragon in essence.

That human figure was just an illusion.

Can the stone body of the ancient dragon really produce milk?

Forget it, it’s better not to think about such things.

After thinking for a while, Bai Shi picked up a plate from the table beside him.

He then pulled out a red dew drop chalice bottle and poured the dew drops inside into it.

Bai Shi brought the dew drop in front of Schiff, but it licked it twice and stopped drinking.

It seemed that it was not very satisfied with the dewdrops and continued to stare at Bai Shi.

Bai Shi was a little worried.

What should I feed this little guy?
Schiff waited for a long time, and seeing that Bai Shi seemed to have no food here, he started looking around again.

After a while, Shiv found his target and turned to look at the eggshell from which he was born.

It trotted over and began to eat the eggshells.

With the endless crunching sounds, the eggshell was soon chewed up and eaten.

But it seemed that this still couldn't fill its stomach, so it turned around and went to look for Melina and Torrett.

Bai Shi saw the sharp teeth of Schiff showing when he was gnawing on the eggshell, and suddenly felt that maybe he could try feeding it some meat.

So Bai Shi began to search for objects in his space disc, and soon he took out a piece of the hero's meat.

This piece of meat was the gift from Alexander to Bai Shi for saving him from the pit, but he has not eaten it yet.

The moment Bai Shi took out the piece of brave man's meat from the space disc, Schiff's eyes immediately looked over.

Shiv hurried over from Torret and Melina.

It opened its mouth with its tongue hanging out, staring at the huge piece of meat.

Bai Shi tore off a piece of meat from the piece of meat and handed it to Schiff.

Shiv immediately took the piece of meat in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it quickly.

Bai Shi saw that Schiff was eating quite well and nodded.

"Well, it seems that meat can indeed be fed."

"Perhaps this is a powerful ability that these creatures have developed in order to survive their childhood."

After a while, Celine Shanks also entered Bai Shi's tent.

She wanted to ask Bai Shi when he planned to start learning to pray.

Seeing that the little wolf had hatched from the egg, Celine Shanks was also very surprised.

"Oh my, has it hatched so soon?"

"It's quite cute."

Celine Sanks walked to Schiff's side, gathered her skirt, knelt down, and reached out to touch its little head.

While eating the strip of meat in his mouth, Schiff rubbed his head against Celine Shanks' palm.

Maybe being cute is the nature of all cubs.

Celine Shanks looked at Bai Shi.

"Is it okay for it to eat meat right after it was born?"

Bai Shi was not very clear either, so he looked at the piece of meat in his hand.

"I don't know, it should be okay..."

"It had all its teeth when it was born, and it just gnawed off its own eggshell."

"And it looks like it's enjoying its meal."

Celine Shanks put her finger to her chin and shook her head.

"Hmm, but it seems that most wolves need to be breastfed... No, they lay eggs..."

"Sure enough, I still can't understand this creature."

Bai Shi tore off another strip of meat and threw it into Shiv's mouth.

Bai Shi looked at Celine Shanks again.

"So what did you ancient dragons eat when you were just born?"

Celine Shanks blinked and began to try hard to recall her childhood which seemed so far away now.

"Um, well..."

"It seems like he doesn't need to eat. He might just chew on some rocks when he's bored."

Bai Shi was speechless.

"What? It's obviously you ancient dragons who are the most unreasonable, let alone other races."

Celine Sanks chuckled twice.

"That's right."

"Maybe sometimes I don't notice my abnormalities."

Bai Shi tore the brave man's flesh into small pieces bit by bit and threw them into Shiv's mouth.

Only after most of the brave man's meat was torn off did Sif finally feel full, and his stomach became round.

Shiv yawned and then fell asleep with his belly exposed and his legs up in the air.
