Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 10 White Mask Fan Lei

Bai Shi stared blankly at the scenery in front of him.

Since traveling here, Bai Shi had been to either the dangerous Chapel of the King or the dark and depressing caves and cemeteries, so much so that he had forgotten the work of art-like scenery of the Elden Ring.

Bathed in the glory of the golden tree, Bai Shi seemed to have regained the shock he felt when he first played the Elden Ring.

It's pure joy, and just opening the game makes you excited for what to play next.

The warmth of the golden tree's glory, the subtle scent of flowers, and the leisurely wandering sheep.

It is hard to imagine that there would be such a harmonious scene on this land watered with blood.

All this beauty made Bai Shi feel for the first time that he was really living in this fantastic and magnificent world.

He was unwilling to face the fact that he had died in his previous life, and was wondering whether it was a time travel. All these things that lingered and accumulated in Bai Shi's mind were now thrown out of his mind.

At this moment, he is no longer entangled. Since he has come to this world, he might as well enjoy it.

Hakan walked up to Baishi.

"How about it? It's shocking, isn't it? Although the Golden Law is broken, the Golden Tree still exists here."

Bai Shi didn't say anything. After a while, he spoke:

"I have decided that I will bring peace to the border area."

"What? Are you serious? Do you know how hard this is?"

"Although it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, my intentions are not false."

Bai Shi said seriously.

Hakan had a very complicated expression.

He didn't think Bai Shi could succeed, but he began to imagine that scene unconsciously in his mind.

"Well, I wish you success. Then I can also benefit from your success and experience a peaceful world."

Hakan sighed. He still couldn't imagine such a thing happening at the border.

He patted the warhorse and mounted it.

"It's time to end the journey. It's been a pleasure traveling with you. I hope we won't have to fight each other in the future."

Although the last sentence sounded unlucky, Bai Shi knew that this was a tragedy that could actually happen in this land.

"Haha, I'm going to buy you a drink, just don't die in some corner first."

Bai Shi said goodbye to Hakan with a smile. Hakan turned around and they smiled at each other.

Hakan seemed to remember something and took something out of his warhorse's bag and threw it to Bai Shi.

"then."

Bai Shi reached out and took it easily. It was a metal helmet. The back and top of the head were covered with scales, and the face was covered by fine chain mail, leaving only the eyes exposed.

Bai Shi was very surprised. This was exactly the helmet of the Kaidan mercenary. No wonder he had never seen Hakan wearing it. It turned out that he had put it in his luggage.

"What should I do with you?"

Hakan didn't even turn his head, just waved.

"Helmets are protective gear worn by warriors. You happen to be short of one, and I don't need one."

"I'm not a fighter anymore."

Bai Shi held the helmet and said nothing more.

"You must stay alive and wait until the future King of Elden comes to invite you to drink. If you die first, I will not let you go."

"Hahahaha! Then I'll be looking forward to it."

Bai Shi already regarded Hakan as a friend, and he didn't know if they would ever meet again after this separation.

But the two will not stop just to consider each other.

At the junction, everyone has something to do.

Bai Shi looked at the ruins of the church in the distance and set out on the road forward.

After walking for about ten minutes, Bai Shi followed the guidance of the blessing and came to a small slope on a high place.

Bai Shi couldn't help but complain. "It's different from the game. The map is much bigger, but it's more realistic this way."

"It's ridiculous that you have to ride a horse for several minutes to cross a hill in the game. The map scale is reduced only for the sake of gameplay."

A blessed spot was burning warmly in front of me.

However, just as Bai Shi was about to touch the blessing, a rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes nearby.

Bai Shi stared with bated breath, his hands on his weapons, ready to fight at any time.

But the sound died down again in an instant, as if some small animal had passed by unintentionally.

But Bai Shi knew that there was a guy who would appear nearby.

"Don't hide. I can still distinguish the noises people make."

"Clatter, crash, crash -"

The bushes were pushed aside and a figure walked out.

The visitor wore a white mask with a smiling face, a suit of white clothes, and his body was stained with blood that had turned black due to the passage of time.

Bai Shi recognized him as the white-masked Fan Lei under the command of the Blood King.

He used to be a battlefield doctor who saved people on the battlefield, but was abducted by the Blood King Monger. He was forced to accept the cursed blood but willingly began to serve Monger.

"Haha, what a keen observation."

He didn't hesitate to praise himself in his sweet voice.

Hearing this sound made Bai Shi feel nauseous.

It was as if Fan Lei was chewing his tongue and mouth while speaking, with a mouth full of blood but still enjoying it very much, and even wanted to smear the blood in the ears of the listener.

And he's a sissy.

Bai Shi resisted the urge to chop him with his sword and pretended not to know him.

"who are you?"

Fan Lei folded up the gloves that were stained with blood and rubbed them slowly like a fly rubbing its hands.

"Oh, the Faded One, longing for the Elden Ring, brought you to this junction."

"But it's really sad... you don't have a witch to accompany you."

"I can't gain strength from Rune, let alone be invited to the Hall of the Round Table. I'm afraid I can only die in obscurity, hehehe..."

Bai Shi gradually frowned. This guy became even more despicable than in the game.

As if he could see Bai Shi's disgust, Fan Lei slightly restrained his disgusting smile.

"But don't worry, dear, there is still hope even if you don't have a witch—"

"I just happen to know that you need a little help right now, and you're lucky to have met me, Van Lei."

"You know blessing, right? It is the golden light that allows you, the faded ones, to rest for a while. Following the direction of that light is the path you, the faded ones, should take."

"Yes, the blessing will guide you where to go, or... where to be buried."

"I don't know if you are one of the few faded ones who can see the blessing, but I think the direction the blessing leads to must be the city on the cliff, Stonewell."

Bai Shi patiently listened to Fan Lei's explanation.

'It seems that the setting and time are not much different from the game.'

"What is your purpose of being here?"

Bai Shi asked.

Fan Lei laughed a few times and replied:

"I am here at the behest of a certain Lord to put the Faded Ones, who have no witches, on the right track."

"Well, let's get going and head towards Stonewell where the old and ugly demigod 'Limb-joiner' Greg lives."

"If there is no witch who also desires the Elden Ring, then this is how it should be, hehe."
