Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 333 Grand Corridor

Although Bai Shi was collecting items very carefully, he really shouldn't have expected too much.

Bai Shi sighed slightly.

That’s right, the Corruption Lake had just been plowed by him.

After the destructive attack, there would probably be nothing left.

Anyway, he was already very satisfied as he had exploded a lot of Runes here.

In the end, Bai Shi only found two weapons that were already in the game in the Corruption Lake.

One of them is the scorpion tail needle, which has special meaning for the corrupt followers.

It was a dagger with the tail needle of a giant scorpion transformed into the blade.

Scarlet corrupted venom dripped from it continuously.

This is a pagan sacrificial utensil, and it is said that it uses sealed relics of external gods.

However, Bai Shi had no idea of using it.

This weapon can be used to accumulate Crimson Corruption, but it is just a toy in front of Eperia, who already possesses the power of abundance and corruption.

So Bai Shi just accepted it and used it for collection.

As for the other one, it was the dragon scale knife that should have been dropped by the corrupt lake dragon soldiers.

Delve into the immortal roots of ancient dragons, grind stone scales, and make weapons with penetrating blades.

The weapon was stuck into a giant tree in the center of Lake Corruption and was swallowed by its trunk.

It was a weapon of extremely exaggerated size, and one could tell at a glance that it was not something that could be wielded by human power.

A sword that can make a person run forty meters first (wrong).

Bai Shi used the power of the Great Rune to enlarge his body, grasped the hilt of the knife and pulled it out.

After pulling out the dragon scale knife, the blade, which was clearly made of rock scales but was very transparent, attracted Bai Shi.

On the blade, he could feel the aura of Celine Sanx, mixed with scattered auras of other ancient dragons.

I guess the 'Eternal City' must have collected materials from all over the border in order to forge this weapon, and finally managed to put together such a weapon.

In the end, he was led away by the dragon soldiers and was of no use.

Even if the corrupt gods took over the bodies of dragon soldiers, they only used them as puppets and did not care about their original weapons and powers.

Although Bai Shi's power is more than enough to wield this weapon easily.

However, this exaggerated size makes Bai Shi appear very uncoordinated when using it even if he enlarges the body to the limit.

This dragon soldier came here with a dragon scale knife designed specifically for them, so perhaps there are some remaining weapons in Nox Stella as well.

You know, there is another weapon in the game that is supposed to be used by the dragon soldiers.

That is the dragon halberd with cold lightning power.

Noklonn had searched the place thoroughly, and Bai Shi was certain that no weapons had been left there.

So the weapon might still be in Nox Stella.

He casually inserted the dragon scale knife back into the corrupt giant tree, and Bai Shi supported his head to recall the distribution of buildings in Nox Stella.

Give this dragon scale knife to the dragon soldier of Noxstella, and bring it back with him as a weapon when he returns.

Now that they all have their own will, they no longer fight like beasts as before.

It would be even better if you could find the Dragon Halberd, but even if you can't, you still have the Dragon Scale Knife as a backup.

What's left are some miscellaneous things, various materials and the like.

After finding these two weapons, Bai Shi no longer had the desire to continue rummaging through garbage in the Lake of Corruption.

The living place of the corrupt creatures is indeed not commendable.

Bai Shi is going to go deeper and prepare to explore the Grand Corridor.
-
The Grand Corridor still stands quietly at the end of the Corrupted Lake, just as it did in the game.

In the Ansel River basin, both the upstream and downstream have normal water flow, sandwiching the Corruption Lake in the middle.

The corrupt lake in the middle is the seal of the corrupt god.

After passing the Grand Corridor, you will leave the territory of the Lake of Corruption and enter the lower reaches of the Ansel River.

Because of the battle just now, the water level of the Corruption Lake has dropped to only a thin layer.

At this time, the lake water that had been continuously pouring down into the Grand Corridor had calmed down and was seeping down slowly.

Following the stairs, Bai Shi arrived at the grand corridor smoothly.

As the end point of a seal, the buildings here remain intact and are unprecedentedly large in scale.

It can be said that the glory of the entire ancient dynasty is fully displayed.

Lighting up the blessing under the stairs, Bai Shi looked around and felt a little emotional.

Back then, when he first explored the map, he didn’t know that he could step on a mechanism to raise the platform.

I encountered a dragon soldier in the center of the Corruption Lake. His stats were as strong as a monster. I barely defeated him by using up all the Holy Grail Dew.

In the end, with no blood or mana left, Bai Shi barely managed to run to the Grand Corridor, but was directly killed by corruption and poison next to this blessing.

Seeing the blessing that was so close yet so far away, Bai Shi felt quite painful at that time.

But Bai Shi can only say that this is how the Souls series is.

The right way is: No matter how many times the old thief abuses me, I will still treat him like my first love.

After laughing twice, Bai Shi began to explore the large corridor downwards.

The corrupt creatures in the grand corridor were not affected by the outside world and therefore continued to function normally.

It's just that the noise outside is too loud for them to ignore, so they are on high alert at the moment.

Bai Shi glanced at his remaining five-fold rune multiplier and without hesitation charged directly into the defense line of the corrupt followers.

Killing all the corrupt creatures that blocked his way, Bai Shi finally arrived at the end of the corridor.

At the end of the road, countless corrupt creatures did not pay any attention to the noise coming from behind them. They knelt motionlessly and worshiped a huge statue devoutly.

It was a giant statue of an unknown old man, just like the other statues from ancient dynasties that Bai Shi had seen before.

The only difference from other statues is that the upper body of this statue is completely covered with scarlet corrupt fungi and red mucus, with a huge corrupt tumor forming on it.

And this is the object that the corrupt followers kneel down to worship, as a symbol of the corrupt god in their hearts.

The sealed corrupt god did not leave his true form here.

Therefore, the corrupt relatives can only comfort their souls in this way.

The white consciousness kept approaching this group of corrupt creatures, but they were not aware of the approaching destruction, or they did not care about their own destruction at all.

Except for one weird guy.

A guy with armor covered in fungi and a huge mushroom on his head was leaning against a pillar of the corridor.

It's like a dead body that was thrown here casually after death.

However, at this moment, it stood up and looked in the direction of Bai Shi.

The armor the creature wore was old and tattered, with mycelium filling the gaps and growing dangerously colored mushrooms.

Bai Shi naturally also noticed this unique guy.

Seeing an enemy he had never seen before, Bai Shi was observing with great interest.

When he saw the mushrooms on its body, Bai Shi inexplicably started thinking about eating it.

After all, these mushrooms look a lot like something you'd eat in a maze-themed comic. And the armor's eyes glowed green, staring at Bai Shi like a ghost.

Seeing the white consciousness approaching step by step, the strange armored figure picked up the weapon that had been with it for a long time from its side.

It was a straight sword sheathed in a scabbard.

It was so rotten that one couldn't even tell if the blade was broken inside, and one also doubted whether it could ever be unsheathed.

The owner of this weapon obviously didn't care about this problem. He raised the sword in front of him and easily pulled out the blade.

A green light shone on its face.

The blade was covered with dangerous poison, and a faint green light kept flashing.

This is a sharp blade blessed by the mushroom kings themselves in ancient times.

The poisonous blade was unsheathed, and the figure covered with mushrooms flashed like a ghost, leaving several afterimages on the road, and instantly moved to Bai Shi's side.

Along with the venom-filled sword, there were also several balls of tracking venom floating in the air.

Bai Shi instantly transformed into a soul and rushed forward, easily avoiding all attacks.

But when Bai Shi appeared again, the mushroom man's sword had already caught up with him again.

Bai Shi was also surprised when he saw this.

This guy is extremely fast, one of the fastest among all the enemies he has ever encountered.

The poisoned sword blade swept towards Bai Shi's side.

Once the body is cut, the deadly poison will instantly invade the enemy's body and kill it quickly.

This time Bai Shi did not dodge, but stretched out two fingers to block the attack beside him.

He bent two fingers, and his knuckles precisely clamped the venom-coated sword blade, locking it tightly so that no one could get close.

The venom-filled sword blade was burned by the remaining fire, making a constant sizzling sound.

The poisonous liquids finally arrived at this moment, and were dispersed one by one by the circle of brilliant swords condensed around Bai Shi.

Seeing that his weapon was clamped, the strange mushroom man immediately took countermeasures.

A large amount of poisonous mist gushed out from under its helmet, covering Bai Shi's face.

However, the poisonous fog that it had placed high hopes on was completely ineffective and inexplicably dissipated in front of Bai Shi.

Seeing Bai Shi’s calm demeanor, the mushroom man then tried to struggle and escape.

However, from the moment its blade was controlled by Bai Shi, its fate was already sealed.

Bai Shi's free hand reached forward to grab its head, holding it in his palm.

Although it struggled desperately and many mushrooms fell off its body, it was still useless.

Purple gravity magic condensed in Bai Shi's hands, and a laser instantly pierced through its head.

Seeing that the corpse was still twitching and struggling, Bai Shi shot out several lasers from his hands again, piercing it repeatedly.

Bai Shi didn't let go until he was sure that the enemy was completely dead.

Throwing the corpse aside, Bai Shi burned all the mushroom juice in his hands.

The user died, and the weapon that was constantly leaking poison lost its power and became a broken, featureless, and worn-out weapon.

Bai Shi looked at the weapon that had lost all its power and was no longer as strong and crazy as before, and shook his head.

He really likes collecting weapons.

There were many enemies he couldn't understand, or even witness or fight, but the weapons were different.

It is a symbol of the soldiers' courageous fighting and the most vivid heroic story.

Defeating and killing enemies and collecting their weapons is also a form of respect and recognition.

There was no point in keeping such a broken weapon, but Bai Shi still accepted it to commemorate this unique enemy.

Looking at the corrupt followers who were still kneeling over there, Bai Shi swept them away casually.

Fanatics, this kind of existence is really exaggerated.

There was a fight going on nearby but he didn't care at all. It's a bit too much.

It is a cause for celebration that the cold and corrupt family members have transformed into warm-hearted Runes.

However, at the end of the grand corridor, Bai Shi did not find anything like a sarcophagus.

Bai Shi didn't care either.

The sarcophagus is a teleportation item that is required to continue the Lani side quest in the game.

Now Bai Shi can go directly to find Lani, even if there is no sarcophagus.

Anyway, we can just let Lani take care of us all the way.

After a little thought, Bai Shi turned and walked to the other end of the corridor.

There seems to be a corrupt tree spirit here. Let's get rid of it and get some runes at the same time.

The white consciousness kept moving towards the place where the corrupt tree spirit was in the memory.

Soon Bai Shi arrived at the other end of the corridor.

There is no way forward, but a corner appears inexplicably next to it.

When he saw this strange corner, Bai Shi knew that this was the place.

Walking forward and turning the corner, as expected, a corrupt tree spirit appeared in his sight.

In the pool of corrupt lake water nearby, a corrupt tree spirit whose body could not hide at all was hiding.

Seeing Bai Shi walking around the corner, the corrupt tree spirit suddenly rushed out, opened its huge mouth and pounced on him.

Bai Shi sneered at the corrupt tree spirit that was attacking here.

You like to hide around corners and attack? I'll teach you a lesson today!
Bai Shi releases the power of the Great Rune, continuously expanding his body size to the limit.

The corrupt tree spirit had already rushed in front of him, and he could even smell the disgusting smell of the scarlet corruption and decay coming from its mouth.

Bai Shi did not avoid it at all. A faint fire ignited on his body to resist the erosion of corruption. Then he opened his arms to welcome the corrupt tree spirit.

The charge of the corrupt tree spirit was blocked by Bai Shi, and he easily grasped its upper and lower jaw with one hand.

Bai Shi blocked the corrupt tree spirit, grabbed its huge mouth tightly, and suddenly closed it in the middle.

The corrupt tree spirit's gaping mouth suddenly closed again.

The twisted tree trunks that formed the mouth shattered in the collision.

The corrupt tree spirit kept flapping its wings, but what was waiting for it was an even more terrifying force.

Bai Shi still did not loosen his hands that were grabbing the huge mouth of the corrupt tree spirit, but instead tore it violently to both sides.

The body of the corrupt tree spirit was torn from the huge mouth, and the entire body was torn into two parts like waves, until the middle of the body, the tearing stopped.

A ball of blazing flame gathered in front of Bai Shi and slammed into the cracked body of the corrupt tree spirit.

The flames lit up, and the incomplete body of the corrupt tree spirit was immediately pierced by the flames and was completely submerged in the explosion.

After dealing with the corrupt tree spirit, Rune also floated into Bai Shi's body.

Clapping his hands, Bai Shi confirmed that nothing was missed.

In that case, there is nothing worth noting in this large corridor or even in the entire Lake of Corruption.

Bai Shi turned and left, returning to the 'Eternal City' Noxstella with the Dragon Scale Knife.
