Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 272 Bloody Night
In the constant mutual consumption with Ashmi, Mung gradually gained a certain upper hand.

This place was originally his domain. In this place filled with cursed blood, he possessed various abilities, including blocking, attacking, defending, and free movement in the venue.

Moreover, Mung had already made preparations this time. The cursed blood was directly connected to the blood pool of the Mungwen Dynasty, so there would be no supply problem until the clone was completely shattered.

The price Ashmi would have to pay to get to Monger and hurt him would be much higher than the price Monger would have to pay to defend himself.

And she often needs a combination of skills to block Monger's actions, causing damage and consuming Monger.

Ashmi also discovered this and now began to think about how to destroy this area.

If she wanted to go out, the other party couldn't stop her, but Ashimi didn't intend to leave just like that. She wanted to destroy the other party.

If we can dismantle this area, we can easily deal with the opponent.

Ashmi no longer took the initiative to attack, but just defended his surroundings, and only fought back when Monger came forward to harass him.

She began to try to use Yakir's flame and black flame to try to dry the blood around her.

All the blood blades and blood thorns here can be easily destroyed by her, and the blood flames and cursed blood have no effect on her, so once she does not take the initiative to attack, Monger has no better way.

After a while, seeing that he was unable to deal with Ashmi, Monger communicated the backup plan he had left in Stonewell through the blood curse.

Although his blood field can obscure and isolate the inside and outside, it can still be noticed.

Especially since his brother told him last time that the wind in Stonewell is the surveillance eye.

It's only a matter of time before reinforcements arrive.

Mung was not afraid of reinforcements; on the contrary, he hoped that more reinforcements would come.

It would be best if there were several hundred people.

It would be fine as long as Bai Shi isn't the only one coming here.

Ashimi is not affected by the cursed blood and blood flames, but it is different for others. They will die if they are touched by them.

Monger released the bloodfly again, but this time the target was not Ashmi.

The blood flies hatched by the cursed blood drilled out of the blood barrier and automatically flew to where the crowd was most concentrated.

Ashmi reacted and immediately summoned a storm, intending to kill all the blood flies here, but her attack was blocked by the blood wall erected by Monger, and some of them still escaped.

On a building in the distance, Mongett, who looked like a zombie, came to the window and looked at the street in the distance.

It was pitch black there, but he felt two extremely powerful forces there.

One of them felt extremely familiar to him.

He turned his head and saw signs of fighting in various places in Stonewell.

Right on the street below his feet, a Storm Knight was fighting with a figure covered in a black robe.

After thinking for a while, Mungt changed his appearance and became an ordinary warrior.

He jumped out of the window and kept jumping on the rooftops.

Hiding in the darkness, Monget rushed towards the center of the battle.

However, Mungat was a little anxious this time and underestimated the ancient king who was always keeping an eye on Stonewell.

Unbeknownst to him, the Ancient King had already paid special attention to him.

Relying on the storm in Stonewell, the ancient king can patrol the entire territory without stopping.

It saw everything that happened in Stoneville.

Although his appearance is different now, the Ancient King has discovered Monger's true identity.

As early as in the city of Moren, it had helped Bai Shi fight against Monger.

The attacks he made using blood were very strange, and he did not expect it to appear in Stonewell now.

Fortunately, the person he found was Ashimi, who was very strong and was no less powerful than him.

Now the Ancient King has informed Bai Shi's subordinates to set out to encircle and suppress Mung's clone.

In addition, the Ancient King mobilized the Silver Knights very early, and immediately dispatched the Storm Knights to stop the Blood Fingers when they took action.

Although Monger's sudden attack was unexpected, King Gu was not worried about Stonewell's safety.

Judging from the current performance, it should be able to be resolved without Bai Shi having to take any action.

Therefore, the Ancient King was not in a hurry to inform Bai Shi. He saw Melina sneak into Bai Shi's room, so there was no need to disturb them now.

Besides, if things really went wrong, Bai Shi would know it with his current strength without any reminder.
-
On the street where the Faded Ones gathered, there were now very few people who could sit calmly.

Just now, after Ashmi and Munger left, sounds of what looked like fighting were heard from a distance.

In the darkness of the night, the sound of swords clashing was extremely clear.

There was even a bright comet passing by afterwards, and it was obvious that something was wrong there.

Their intuition told them that something big was going to happen tonight, which was a bit disturbing.

Especially now, the Storm Knights and Silver Knights responsible for city defense and management have been dispatched in large numbers, which further confirms their guess.

After staying here for a while, the Storm Knights hurriedly dispersed. No one knew what they were going to do. Only a few people were left here to guard the scene.

As for the large number of silver knights, they formed groups to guard the road ahead and did not allow anyone to pass.

They didn't know what exactly happened ahead, they only knew that there was a powerful enemy there, an enemy that they could not defeat even if they tried their best.

So the order they received was not to attack, but to wait here for unexpected situations, and someone from the enemy ahead would take action.

Behind the front line, some Silver Knights began to ask the surrounding Faded Ones to evacuate and not gather here again.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, most people listened to the advice and kept evacuating, and the streets suddenly became much quieter.

But many people stayed here.

After all, this is a border area, and these Faded Ones are quite powerful. They don’t think they will be in any danger, and they will stay here so that they can help together when the critical moment comes.

In their simple understanding, with so many Silver Knights and so many Faded Ones who can fight, they can definitely and easily destroy all enemies!

Of course, not everyone here stays because of this idea.

For example, Leida and her group are here to collect information about Stonewell.

Leida looked at the silver knights on guard in front with interest, and was very curious about what was happening in front.

They were nearby before, but until now, she had no interest in the matter.

Even if that woman is really Bai Shi's sister, if there is no chance of contact, then there is no need to pay too much attention to her.

But if something really happened before, then maybe I can take this opportunity to get closer to the person who is suspected to be Bai Shi’s sister.

But now is not the time to be in the spotlight, she hopes to wait for an opportunity to make the situation more intense.

It would undoubtedly be best to take action at that time.

In addition to their group, there were also others who stayed behind with their own thoughts.

For example, the two little followers that Monger had previously accepted.

They had no strength and were very uneasy, but they stayed where they were, ready to wait for their eldest brother to come back and show his loyalty.

Of course, they were not really convinced by Mung and intended to be his loyal followers.

Simply for his runes.

"Why hasn't he come back yet? Are they really fighting?"

"Who knows? It sounds like something's wrong over there. How about we go first?"

"…If I leave now, I may not be able to be on the list again in the future. He is really generous."

"Well, let's wait a little longer. There are still people here anyway."

But the longer I wait, the more uneasy I feel.

"Om-"

A rather faint voice came from the front, not very obvious in the noisy street.

"Hey, did you hear any noise?"

A faded person suddenly spoke up and asked the others around him:
The other Faded Ones didn't notice the subtle sound and thought he had misheard.

"No, are you too nervous?"

"Is that so... maybe."

However, the sound became clearer and clearer, and gradually more and more Faded People discovered this unusual sound.

"Buzzing—"

Something was approaching quickly and could no longer be ignored.

Finally, the silver knights lined up in the front saw what made the sound.

In the darkness of the night, a huge black shadow was rapidly approaching here.

They turned out to be ferocious flies.

The Storm Knights who stayed here immediately commanded the Silver Knights to jointly summon the storm and block all the flies outside the line.

However, the blood flies released by Monger himself were very difficult to deal with, and the strength of these knights was not enough to quickly eliminate them.

The number of blood flies was reduced by half, but they still broke through the storm barrier with a roar.

The blood flies ignored these powerful knights who were fully armored, and instead pounced on the Faded Ones behind them.

Many faded people realized that something was wrong and immediately reminded each other to stay away from these things.

The bloodfly flew in front of a Faded One, who waved his arms to try to drive it away but to no avail.

But when the blood flies flew to the Faded One and were about to pierce their skin with their mouthparts to suck blood, their bodies were blocked by a wind helmet.

The perpetual storm above Stonewell is a massive formation imitating a magical realm, transforming the storm into strength for the warriors. The Ancient King watches over this place, using the storm for the first time in a long time to equip these faded ones with a wind helmet.

Although its defensive power is not amazing, it is very effective when facing creatures like blood flies.

Suddenly, the two men under Munger's command turned red in the face and could not utter a word.

They desperately scratched their necks and faces with their fingers, not stopping until their flesh was bloody. Many parts of their bodies were slowly pierced by the sharp and twisted horns.

The people around didn't care about the blood flies and immediately moved away from them.

Horns inexplicably grew on his body, this is a symbol of a terrifying curse!
Blood is one of the carriers of power.

Many people on the border will never know this in their lifetime, and will hardly have the power in their blood.

But for Munger, it was different.

The weak power contained in the blood of the two Faded Ones was transformed by the seeds he planted and turned into cursed blood on its own.

The curse-like power continued to spread in the body, and the power of the blood was concentrated and transformed into a small amount of cursed blood.
After a brief accumulation, the bodies of the two men swelled and exploded, and blood flames ignited on the cursed blood.

The cursed blood splattered everywhere, and the whistling wind helmet was also ignited by the blood it was carrying.

Many people were caught off guard and fell victim to the disease, and the blood plague and curse spread.

These faded ones contaminated by the cursed blood fell into despair and then exploded one after another.

The intensity of these secondary explosions weakened, but they still spread.

Blood flames began to leap up the bodies of the Faded Ones and could not be extinguished at all.

These Faded Ones only now realized the horror of the enemy, and they had no ability to resist such an attack.

The enemies they had encountered in the past were all visible and tangible, and the worst that could happen was they would just rush up and fight them. They had never seen such a strange tactic.

This is the confidence that brought Monger to his attack. His ability is simply a synonym for despair for the weak Faded Ones.

No demigod could match his killing efficiency.

The Silver Knights immediately dispersed the crowd, preventing the curse from spreading further among the dense crowd.

The blood flies, which were already extremely rare in number, changed direction and rushed into the cursed blood on the ground, rapidly reproducing in it. A large number of blood flies rose up again.

However, a violent storm of unprecedented intensity arose, instantly wiping out these hard-to-eliminate blood flies.

After seeing how difficult the combination of blood flies and cursed blood was, the ancient king decided that this was no longer a situation that the knights could handle, so he took the initiative.

Since the cursed blood and blood flames are difficult to clean out of the body, let's first completely clean out the blood flies on the other side that are easier to clean out.
-
Amidst the panicked Faded Ones, Leida smiled beneath her helmet.

She felt the unique blood power of the 'Blood King' Monger in this attack.

Interesting, so interesting.

I thought it was not an ordinary thing just now, but I didn’t expect that it was Monger who took action. It was really unexpected.

But this was just right. Monger actually dared to take action in Stoneville, and he took action against a person who was suspected to be Bai Shi's sister.

Now there is no need to worry about how to provoke Bai Shi and Mengge, they can do it on their own.

She only needed to tell Bai Shi the way to get to the Blood Dynasty, which was equivalent to handing the knife into his hands.

And now it seems that I can still help out and gain some favor.

Leida stood up and walked forward against the flow of people, passing them.

A Faded One retreating from the front immediately reminded Leida not to go any further.

But he was patted on the shoulder by a hand, and a man in a wide hat gave them a reassuring smile, then pushed him in the direction of continuing to escape.

As a clergyman, Dann not only has a high fighting spirit, but also has a reassuring and reliable quality.

Without such qualities, one cannot be considered an excellent clergyman.

"Ha, finally some fun!"

Freya the Red Lion also stood up and followed Leida.

The three of them went against the current and parted the crowd.

Soon the three of them saw a strange scene in front of them where bodies exploded one after another and dirty blood covered the entire street.

The Silver Knights who stayed here were not having a good time either. Although they were stronger than other Faded Ones, they had no way to deal with this strange method for the time being.

They had no choice but to stay away from these spreading dangers to temporarily protect themselves and avoid meaningless sacrifices.

Leida raised the Golden Needle Knight Sword in her hand.

The next moment, brilliant golden power shone from the sword, illuminating this hellish scene like holy light.

Dozens of virtual golden needles made of pure golden power flew out from the sword and flew into the bodies of the victims who were contaminated by the cursed blood but had not yet erupted.

After their power was sealed, these people survived temporarily, but they still need to wait for follow-up treatment to completely escape danger.

The Silver Knights wanted to stop them from moving forward, but the situation ahead was unclear and it would be extremely dangerous to move forward rashly.

But Leida chuckled twice under her helmet and said kindly to the Silver Knights:

"Don't worry, we have fought alongside your Lord Baishi before and are very strong."

"If you get a chance, please give him your regards for us."

The Silver Knights looked at each other in bewilderment. They had just witnessed her strength, which was indeed far beyond theirs.

Finally, the leader of the Storm Knight bowed to them and let them pass.

"Thank you for your help."

"Please be careful with it."

After passing through several deserted streets, Leida and the others looked at the blood barrier that engulfed the entire street in front of them and smiled.

She took a deep breath, gathered the power of pure gold into the sword, and swung it forward with force.

The power of the cursed blood was briefly suppressed by the pure gold and turned into ordinary blood. A crack immediately appeared on the solid barrier.

"let's go."

At Leida's command, Freya and Dann couldn't wait to rush in one after another, and Leida then stepped into the field slowly.

After Dane and Freya entered, they were immediately attacked violently.

However, the two were also quite strong and they easily blocked the attacks of the blood thorns and blood blades.

However, when Monger changed direction and attacked them first, the two of them immediately became embarrassed.

After Leida stepped into this bloody realm, she briefly observed the interior of this realm and then spoke lightly:

"Help me contain him."

Upon hearing this, Freya took the lead in attacking, while Dann stood in front of Leida to help her defend against the attack.

Leida's Golden Needle Knight Sword slammed into the ground, and then the golden light continued to spread and covered Monger's blood.

The power of this blood was suppressed by the pure gold, causing Monger's domain to gradually become ineffective.

Seeing this, Ashmi rushed forward again and slashed at Monge, who could no longer hide in blood.

Monger looked at Leida with a look of disgust on his face.

Did Michaela's men chase him here? What bad luck.

He immediately summoned more cursed blood, which spread on the ground like waves.

There was an expression of effort on Leida's face. It was indeed difficult for her to fight against Monger with her strength alone. The golden light was constantly being forced back.

Seeing this, Monger laughed triumphantly and turned into blood again to narrowly avoid the attack.

Ashmi curled his lips. This area was really too difficult to deal with. It would be great if someone could tear it apart.

As if responding to Ashmi's expectations, a huge red lightning spear penetrated from the top of the blood field, and lightning instantly filled the entire field.

A giant claw tore through the crack, and the top of the entire area was completely opened.

Celine Sanx's huge ancient dragon head poked in, and its vertical pupils stared at Monger coldly.

On the rooftop of a building on one side, the increasingly haggard Lancelet looked at Monger with some resentment, and was very resentful towards this guy who interrupted his nightlife.

He waved his staff, and a violent storm locked onto Monger's figure, with a tornado restricting his form for a moment.

Leida found the right opportunity, and the power of pure gold once again overwhelmed Monger, blocking his ability to hide.

Celine Sanx's dragon claws and Ashmi's star-breaking sword attacked at the same time.

Monger thought to himself that this was not good. The current situation was too unfavorable for him.

Ashimi's strength is slightly better than his, and this ancient dragon is at least at the same level.

The strength of the Golden Needle Knight is slightly inferior, but that is already the level of the top heroes in the border area.

The remaining few people are more than capable of participating in battles of this level.

Faced with the impending attack, Monger tried to resist reluctantly.

His plan this time has not achieved the expected effect, and not enough blood has been shed in Stoneville.

But it seems that I can only leave with regret.

However, just when everyone thought that Monger was doomed to fail, something strange happened.

An unknown figure stood in front of Monger and blocked the fatal blow together with Monger.

　Experimental classes, three days of full experimental classes! My butt is about to break from sitting on this broken stool, tears welling up in my eyes.
