Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 386 'Legend of the Sun'

After explaining the forging matters to Iggy, Bai Shi had no plans to stay any longer and prepared to set off again.

After that, he and Melina would go ahead and act separately from Lailana and the others.

After a brief replenishment, Kalia's army was soon able to set out again.

In Stonewell, Bai Shi generously transferred a large number of dragon beasts and lent them to them as temporary mounts.

The road from the entrance of Stonewell to Lienia was one that Laelana and the others were already familiar with, so there was no need for a guide.

As for the subsequent reconstruction of Kalia Fortress, the manpower has not arrived yet, and Bai Shi is not in a hurry to participate.

Lailana also wants to discuss the reconstruction of Kalia Castle with Iggy, and also hopes to know more details about Kalia's previous events.

After that, she planned to go to the Magic Academy first to check on her sister's condition, and let Mulitiel lead the army directly to the castle.

So Bai Shi and Melina went ahead and prepared to go directly to the Yatan Plateau.

However, just after Bai Shi turned around and walked a distance, Hetis, who had been observing silently from the side, suddenly caught up with him.

Outside Iggy's residence, Hetis called out to Bai Shi:

"Master Baishi! We have something to give you."

Bai Shi stopped, turned around and looked at Hetis with interest.

Will it be some new pyroxite item? Or some weapon with special effects?
Bai Shi had no idea what he had prepared, but since he could give it to him, it must be useful.

Hetis took out a square gold-carved ornament, held it in both hands respectfully, and handed it to Bai Shi.

Bai Shi looked at the gold pendant with a very familiar shape and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Melina on the side also gradually widened her eyes and blurted out:

"Is this... a talisman?"

Bai Shi didn't expect that Hetis would actually make a talisman for him.

He and Melina had traveled together for a long time, but until now, they had never witnessed the birth of the amulet.

This was indeed beyond their expectations.

Bai Shi looked at the amulet and couldn't help asking:

“Did you make this?”

Hetis shook his head repeatedly, bent down more respectfully, and explained:

"No, I don't deserve it."

"This was forged with faith by your followers, including me."

"After witnessing the blinding brightness of the light, we found this miracle in the sun."

"Almost all followers of Stonewell wear it to prove their determination to follow and their faith in the sun."

"It just happened to be forged by me."

Hetis's voice trembled slightly due to excitement, but it came out from under the pyroxene stone cover with great determination:
"At first, although I yearned for the beautiful world you described, I couldn't imagine such a world at all."

"But watching the changes in Nimgef and Lienia along the way, I finally felt it was real."

"The subsequent miracles of the sun's appearance made us all understand—"

"At this moment, under your leadership, the border area is moving towards unprecedented glory."

"Your light is shining on the border area now, and will surely illuminate every corner in the future."

“No matter what, we will all follow you until the end of our lives.”

"This is our humble tribute, please accept it."

Bai Shi took the amulet from Hetis very seriously and carefully.

Feeling the genuine sincerity in the words, Bai Shi was deeply moved, and his fingers holding the amulet couldn't help but tighten.

Melina gently placed her hand on Bai Shi's hand, which saved the amulet from being inexplicably crushed.

After taking a deep breath to calm himself, Bai Shi looked at the amulet carefully, and its name appeared in front of him:

'Legend of the Sun'

Like other 'XX Legend' amulets, this one is a square gold pendant.

But the carved patterns on it are unique and belong only to the sun.

A shining sun hangs high in the sky, emitting soft light.

Around the sun, there are dense clouds, which look like a surrounding storm or dark clouds that have just been pierced by the light.

Under the shining sun rays, the followers moved forward firmly, chasing the sun's trail.

Rubbing the marks on the amulet with his fingertips, Bai Shi felt extremely relieved.

Bai Shi walks on a road covered with radiance. He is the brightest light in the world, the sun itself.

But at the same time, he is not alone, countless sparks are following him.

After realizing this, Bai Shi was particularly moved.

Wanting to make the border area better was by no means wishful thinking or self-satisfaction on his part.

There are so many sparks willing to follow him and move forward together towards the world he depicts.

For Bai Shi, the meaning of this amulet is romantic enough.

Perhaps in battles and major events, the brilliance of followers will seem insignificant.

But that doesn't mean they are unimportant.

In the eyes of Baishi, each of them is crucial to the border area.

In various tiny corners, they also chase the sun, gently releasing their own unique light.

Bai Shi took a deep breath, raised his head and smiled at Hetis.

“I am very happy to feel your wishes.”

"Don't worry, I will definitely shoulder everything and lead you to the world of my dreams."

“It may not be perfect, but it will be satisfying.”

“Our future is bright.”

Only then did Bai Shi feel the power of the amulet.

It can slightly enhance the attributes of vitality, endurance, strength, dexterity, concentration, intelligence, faith, and perception.

At the same time it can slightly reduce the damage taken.

The effect of the amulet is not that strong. Bai Shi felt it and found that it only adds one or two points to each attribute.

This is because the power of the sun frequently appears in the world, bringing additional increases in faith.

Even if it is a bonus to all attributes, it will appear very average if the points are too low.

What's more, not everyone can use all attributes like Bai Shi, and there are even fewer attributes that are actually effective.

But considering that this is a mass-produced amulet, the improvement for the warriors is already quite significant.

There used to be a lot of 'Legend of XX' amulets from the same series, but now they are so rare that they are hard to find.

The miracle of the sun had just begun to shine, and everyone was singing its praises.

With the blessing of the power of faith, this amulet can be mass-produced almost easily.

However, only those who have faith can find strength from it.

But for Bai Shi, these attributes are not important. He cares about something else.

Holding this amulet born of faith, Bai Shi gradually felt a force that was constantly converging towards him.

At this moment, Bai Shi truly felt the existence of the so-called "faith".

The erratic mental power that was difficult to explain with common sense now finally had substance, and one could even feel its source.

The followers are concentrated in Stonewell and the Magic Academy, while the rest are sparsely scattered throughout the border areas.

Not only in Nimgefu, Lienia, and Galid where the Faded Ones often move, but even in the faraway Yatan Plateau, there are many followers. The dots of fire gathered into a line of fire, rushing towards Baizhi's soul.

In fact, this power has been gathering for a long time, but Bai Shi has just noticed it now.

Feeling this number, Bai Shi was even more surprised.

Before he knew it, he had so many followers behind him.

Perhaps initially it was just because of the power to defeat the demigod, or perhaps it was because of the desire for survival or profit, the Faded Ones gathered under Bai Shi for various reasons.

But now, they are following sincerely.

There are even many places where white consciousness has never left its footprints, where there are people who spontaneously believe in it.

After silently feeling the power for a while, Bai Shi began to laugh.

A sun appeared again in his hand, slowly rising into the sky and spreading its light in all directions.

As Bai Shi moved, all the 'Legends of the Sun' emanated a scorching heat.

The blazing sun hanging high in the sculpture gradually twisted and floated, being given life.

Afterwards, all the believers' amulets were given an additional effect:

Slowly recover life and strength from dawn until nightfall.

When affected by any form of solar power, the effect is increased.

At the same time, Bai Shi's words also emerged in their hearts:

'I am the light of the world. I have come so that others may have their light, and so that it may be more abundant.'

'Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'

'There will be tribulation in the world, but you can rest assured that I will overcome the world.'

'My heart longs for light, victory, and peace.'

'This is mercy, lift up your head.'

'Speak my name, praise the sun, and then enjoy the light.'

In various places of the border area, the followers had different expressions when faced with the coming of miracles again.

The only thing without exception was that they all raised their arms high, as if they were embracing the sun.

"The glory of the Sun King will never end!"

"Praise the sun!"
-
After bidding farewell to the tearful Hetis, Bai Shi and Melina walked side by side on Stonewell Road.

Melina looked at Bai Shi's profile and suddenly took one of his arms.

Leaning her head on Bai Shi's shoulder, Melina couldn't help but ask:

"Are you happy?"

Bai Shi laughed happily.

"Well, I'm happy."

Bai Shi seldom has such a feeling. Rather than being happy, it is more like an indescribable feeling of being touched.

"What I want to do will not change because of the opinions of others."

“Even if there is no one to support me on my path, I am destined to keep going, even if it is the wrong path.”

"After all, I am also a stubborn person and I have my own persistence."

"However, if I can be recognized and followed by everyone, this will be the highest honor for me."

"My heart and my actions are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous."

Melina looked at Bai Shi and gave the same bright smile.

Although I don’t understand it very well, but as long as I am happy, that’s enough.

"That's great. Seeing you happy makes me happy too."
-
Bai Shi and Melina returned to the blessing before the throne.

Next they will head to the Yatan Plateau and need to make some preparations.

Although you can fly there directly, you can still save a lot of time if you teleport through blessing first.

On the map, Bai Shi quickly found the blessing point that he had visited with Melina before, which was closest to the Yatan Plateau.

That blessing is at the very edge of Lienia, in the 'Black Knife Underground Cemetery' hidden in the cliffs.

That was the place where Slude was picked up.

Bai Shi touched his chin and chose this place without hesitation.

Although it is at the bottom of the cliff, it is not a problem at all for Bai Shi’s current consciousness.

It just so happened that there were some things on the top of the cliff waiting for Bai Shi to deal with.

For example, in the Epilepsy Village, the symptoms of epilepsy continued to spread.

Another example is Vic the Burnt Fingers, who was guarding the witch's body in the Silent Church.

In the past, Vic was a 'Knight of the Round Table' of the Great Blessing.

He is one of the Faded Ones closest to King Elden, and one of the quasi-kings.

However, one day, he sneaked deep into the royal city and was burned by the mad fire.

It is really sad to see the former quasi-king fall to this state.

But the bond with the witch is also touching.

Bai Shi planned to clean up the Dianhuo Village and then see if he needed to deal with Vic.

Bai Shi was also very surprised that Vic appeared outside the Dianhuo Village.

Because in the game, Vic appeared twice in total.

One was the invading red spirit outside the Dianhuo Village, and the other was the real body in the sealed prison in the snow mountain.

In the game, Vic's existence is not surprising, it is just an ancestral invasion of the FS club.

But it would be strange if Bai Shi could still meet Vic in reality now.

Vic must have been convicted of a serious crime and imprisoned in the sealed prison in the snowy mountains because of his contact with the epilepsy fire.

As for his power, it should be completely isolated.

However, outside the sealed prison, the 'burned fingers' that had come into contact with the insane fire were still able to move freely and protect the witch's body.

Bai Shi has never encountered beings like the red and purple souls in the soul series at the border of reality.

This is obviously not a common force on the border.

Although he has also encountered two enemies, Mongt and Monger, who can split themselves.

But that is the power of their brothers and cannot be used as an example.

Anyway, after we see it with our own eyes later, we should be able to understand what is going on with Vic.

Coming out of the blessing of the Black Knife Underground Cemetery, Bai Shi pulled Melina and flew directly over the cliff beside them.

Just as I climbed up the cliff, I saw a dazzling firelight at the end of my sight.

On the hillside, a fiery sun rose from a watchtower, continuously casting crazy and distorted light.

Seeing the mad flaming sun, Bai Shi didn't take it seriously.

He held Melina tightly with his right hand, and then the fire in his left hand continued to be released and spread to his arm.

After the power of the Mad Fire in the entire arm was released, the pressure unique to the King of Mad Fire also spread like ripples.

Suddenly, this power made the Crazy Fire Sun surrender and become eclipsed.

However, what was waiting for it was an unprecedented blaze of fire that cut through the sky and instantly defeated it.

Under the fire that streaked across the sky, which was no less thick than Comet Azrael, the only fate of the fiery sun was to return to chaos.
