Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 164 Interrogation (Second Update)

It has always been like this.

Nothing has changed.

Melina could only watch Bai Shishi fight alone from behind his back.

During the battle, one can only look at Bai Shi with worry.

Even encouragement is difficult to do, because it is very likely to distract Bai Min and affect the outcome of the battle.

She would only speak when she found out in advance what the other person needed to pay attention to or when she had to remind them.

Only then would Melina feel a little bit like she was fighting alongside Bai Shi.

Unfortunately, Melina knew that this was just comforting herself.

"Um……"

"Well, in that case, you should go out and look after that woman."

"Be careful, she might break free and run away later."

Melina made an excuse and quickly ended the topic.

Bai Shi smiled and refuted Melina:
"Don't worry. She's tied up like that anyway. She definitely can't escape."

The rope that Bai Shi carried was not some junk he picked up from a corpse.

Produced by Stonewell, the quality is guaranteed and it is quite sturdy.

Even though his tying skills were poor, the extra ties were strong enough.

Melina blinked and said playfully:
"Who told you to be so bad at tying people up?"

"Then why didn't you teach me just now?"

“…Pfft, because I don’t know how to do that either.”

Bai Shi scratched Melina's nose, making her a little shy and defeated.

This was a good method that Bai Shi had found earlier to deal with Melina.

Although she is used to holding hands, Melina is quite shy about touching other parts of the body.

Just a gentle scrape like this and Melina would turn her head and pretend to ignore Bai Shi.

It is quite appropriate to use it when leaving Blessing.

Although he was ready to get up and leave Ci Fu, Bai Shi felt a little strange.

Melina obviously had the same familiar feeling about the Black Knife Assassin, but had no intention of discussing her identity now.

Based on Bai Shi's understanding of Melina, this is unlikely to be the case.

However, worrying about the prisoners escaping is also in line with Melina's style.

Melina's concerns are understandable.

So Bai Shi nodded, stood up, said goodbye to Melina, and left the blessed space.

When leaving the blessing, Bai Shi heard a faint sigh.

The sigh was so light that it was as if Bai Shi had misheard it.

Melina hid well, but was still caught by Bai Shi's sharp perception.

What was Melina thinking?

I'm thankful that I just remembered how to use the weapon.

No, that's probably why.

She must be troubled by the fact that she has no body.

After all, I said it before in Moren City, I'm sorry that I can't help without a physical entity.

'Give me a moment, Melina.'

"I will definitely let you have a body again, so that you can embark on a real journey with me."
-
Bai Shi walked in front of the black knife assassin.

Now the Black Knife Assassin has also woken up.

She was lying on the ground, twisting and struggling.

Because Bai Shi had tied her up tightly like a dumpling, her struggling looked like a wriggling worm, which was a bit funny.

The sweat from the Black Knife Assassin's body and the blood that had flowed previously made his hair sticky and wet, sticking to the back of his neck and cheeks.

Because she was rubbing against the ground, she looked a little dirty.

The black knife assassin stopped moving when he saw Bai Shi appear out of nowhere and walk towards him.

What a shame, she was tied up like this and had to crawl on the ground to try to escape.

And this look was actually seen.

She raised her head and stared at Bai Shi.

I was in such a hurry to get rid of him that I didn't pay attention.

Only now did I realize that this guy was actually a fader.

Although the Black Knife Assassins have been hiding from place to place, they don't always stay in the same place.

They are not completely ignorant of news from the outside world.

They knew that after Queen Marica broke the Elden Ring, she recalled the once exiled Faded Army.

But what's up with this fader?

Inexplicably appeared in this cemetery.

After the fight and her defeat just now, she has realized that this person cannot possibly be a tomb robber.

At least they didn't come to this cemetery for the purpose of tomb robbing.

You have to know that no matter where you are, tomb robbing is not a glorious thing, and anyone with some strength would not be willing to do such a thing.

If even someone as powerful as Bai Shi has to come out to rob tombs, then I can’t imagine what life would be like for the Faded Ones.

So she guessed that Bai Shi came to this cemetery for another purpose.

In this cemetery, apart from those strange white flames, she might be the only worthy target.

Thinking of this, the black knife assassin's heart sank.

Was it exposed when it was transferred here earlier?
He didn't kill me. Did he want to get some information from me?

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to commit suicide now.

The leakage of information is inevitable, so the only way is to minimize the losses.

She had no confidence that she could survive all the torture.

But how could I commit suicide in front of him?
The black knife assassin kept thinking while glaring at Bai Shi fiercely.

Bai Shi stood in front of her and spoke helplessly:
"I've already said it, I'm not an enemy."

"There are just some things I want to know."

"Look, I didn't take your life, I didn't do anything to you, I even helped you heal your wounds."

Bai Shi pulled out the cloth of her own clothes that was stuffed in the black knife assassin's mouth.

It's hard to talk with something stuffed in your mouth.

Then Bai Shi touched her face with his right hand and put his thumb into her mouth, pressing it between her upper and lower teeth.

Bai Shi was not doing anything strange, she was just worried that the black knife assassin would bite her tongue and commit suicide when she was given the chance to speak.

According to the style of the black knife assassins, it is really possible to do it.

This is a bit strange, and the speech will probably be unclear.

But at least it eliminated the possibility of her biting her tongue to commit suicide.

The black knife assassin had a strange expression on his face and looked at Bai Shi in confusion.

What the hell is this guy doing? Does he really think biting his tongue can kill him?
If only there were something that convenient.

If you really want to commit suicide, you have to put poison in your mouth in advance.

Unfortunately, she had not prepared it beforehand, and had no chance to put it in her mouth.

But it is obvious that Bai Shi, who had never tried to commit suicide by biting his tongue in his previous life, did not know this.

After all, he had not experienced this, or understood it carefully, but only heard it from others. In fact, Bai Shi knew it by thinking carefully, this was a fantasy world with bizarre physical fitness.

Things like bleeding and suffocation have no effect on these guys with extraordinary physiques.

However, the black knife assassin did not remind Bai Shi.

It’s best not to speak now.

This guy didn't look like he was going to kill her right away, but wanted to get some information out of her before she died.

As for the fact that he was not an enemy and had helped her heal her injuries before? There was no need to think about it.

It could also be a false show of kindness to gain trust.

She was aware of how heavy the burden of information she was carrying.

Take advantage of this moment to think about the benefits of committing suicide.

The black knife assassin bit the thumb that Bai Shi put into her mouth hard as a protest of her dissatisfaction.

If this can anger Bai Shi, it would be nice to die immediately.

His teeth bit Bai Shi's fingers, making him feel a little itchy.

Coupled with the slippery feeling of saliva, it feels indescribably strange.

Bai Shi didn't care about these things and started to ask the Black Blade Assassin questions:

"What's your name?"

There was no response, just a vicious stare.

"Your race is rare, the same race as Queen Marika."

She didn't answer, but just moved her jaw back and forth vigorously, grinding her white thumb with her teeth.

"Why are you hiding in this cemetery?"

She remained silent, just biting Bai Shi's fingers tightly.

With her unremitting efforts, Bai Shi's finger was finally bitten through.

Seeing that she had no intention of paying any attention to him, Bai Shi decided to give her some important information to stimulate her.

"Aren't you supposed to be from the same clan as Queen Marika? Why did Lani inject the Death Rune into your black sword?"

When she heard the name Lani, her pupils shrank.

Did this person find out about Lani from the mark on the black knife so quickly?

Bai Shi saw that she finally responded and continued:
"Don't worry, I know Lani."

"I just want to know what happened that night."

"And what role does Lani play in this?"

The black knife assassin did not react to Bai Shi's words afterwards. He just closed his eyes decisively and stopped biting Bai Shi with his mouth.

No matter what Bai Shi said, she kept her eyes closed and did not respond as if she was dead.

Bai Shi frowned in distress.

The black knife assassins are really professional and it seems they won't speak.

Even an ignorant person would not use torture to extract a confession.

He also wanted to recruit a group of black knife assassins into his team.

The Black Knife Assassins are excellent in both strength and ability.

If you have a few black knife assassins working under you, many things will be much easier.

But forget it now, since I’ve already got the black knife.

The mark on the black knife was enough for Bai Shi to negotiate with Lani.

After negotiating with Lani, see if you can recruit the Black Knife Assassins through Lani.

Anyway, Lani is making them hide here and there, so it’s better to let Bai Shi play their role.

In another cemetery on the road from Stonewell to Gallid, there is also a damaged Black Knife.

She is also the one that Bai Shi is going to recruit.

What Bai Shi is worried about now is how to deal with this black knife assassin.

We definitely can't let her go.

But what should I do? Should I tie him up and take him away?
The racial characteristics of the rare people are quite obvious, and the black knife assassin's attire on their bodies is easy to identify as long as someone who knows something about it.

The Black Knife Assassin has a special identity and it is not easy for him to show up in public.

If it was tied up so ostentatiously and placed on Torret's back, it would be easily discovered.

What's more, he was tied up with his clothes in disarray.

It looked like a scumbag raping a woman.

If he happens to meet someone, it will be difficult to explain, and Bai Shi doesn't want his reputation to be ruined.

Although it doesn’t really matter in this world where power is king.

Bai Shi thought about it.

There was no way to bring her to Cifu, and no one could be asked to come.

Even if we teleported back to Stonewell, called the Crucible Knights over, and asked them to fly here without stopping, it would still take a whole day.

Moreover, the Storm Eagles from Lienia cannot fly in, as they will be shot down by the academy if they do.

It would be very inconvenient to contact them in this way, so we have to agree on a place for them to come.

In this case, it would be equivalent to wasting a day waiting in vain.

It's impossible for Bai Shi to leave the black knife assassin here and wait for them to pick him up. There is too much uncertainty in this situation.

The Black Knife Assassin must not be out of sight and must be under constant supervision.

After much deliberation, Bai Shi finally decided to take her away.

She just needs to be given a little disguise.

There are many things in the cemetery that can hold an entire person.

The most suitable shape is of course a sarcophagus, which is perfect for lying down.

But the sarcophagus was too big and inconvenient to carry.

So Bai Shi turned his attention to the pots commonly seen in cemeteries.

The pot was quite large, and it didn't look strange at all... After all, it was better than bringing a coffin or bringing a person directly.

It's just that this black knife assassin will have to suffer a little. She might have to curl up her body to fit in.

Yes, that's right, and a layer of holy law seal must be added on the outside to prevent her from breaking the pot when she struggles.

Bai Shi pulled his finger out of the black knife assassin's mouth, leaving teeth marks and blood, as well as a string of saliva.

The Black Knife Assassin had been in the cemetery for so long that he probably hadn't brushed his teeth, but he surprisingly didn't have any bad breath.

After stuffing the cloth back into her mouth, Bai Shi picked up her body and walked towards the big pot he had just found.

The black knife assassin still kept her eyes closed... until she found herself in a container.

She opened her eyes and found that she was being put into a large pot by Bai Shi. She couldn't help but look panicked and her body began to tremble slightly.

She recalled the tragic story from ancient times that had been passed down among her tribe:

It is said that in ancient times, when their ancestors were still called witches, they were once horribly abused by a certain race.

This involved beating people until their skin was torn and festering, and then stuffing them into a large pot to merge with the flesh and blood of other races.

After the flesh and blood fuse, new wounds are created, and then it fuses with other flesh and blood again, and the cycle repeats.

The flesh and blood will wrap around the person layer by layer until the entire pot is filled.

Although she had never seen that scene before, she couldn't help but tremble.

She was not afraid of death, but if it was such torture, it would be far more terrifying than death.

　Trivia: In the species collection room of Messermo, there is a bed for each rare girl who has been tortured by a pot.
