Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 183 Blessing
Bai Shi patted Torret and finally figured out which force would have such a Faded One.

I wonder which force on the border has the most and strongest Faded Ones?

Of course, there are many and powerful Faded Ones in Gefulei’s army.

After all, it was Gefulei's army that got the name Faded Ones after being deprived of the blessing.

This group of people had once followed Geoffrey in his battles and fought their way out in one bloody battle after another.

It can be said that Ge Fulei's army has conquered the entire border area.

From the Giant War to the War with the Storm King, from the Snow Mountains to Nimgolf.

Through battles along the way, a golden dynasty was forged.

It is only natural that there is strength and cooperation.

After fading, most of these people were exiled from the border area along with Ge Fulei.

Bai Shi began to guess the origins of the group of people just now.

It is an established fact that they are Ge Fulei's men.

However, there are differences between Ge Fulei's old subordinates and his current subordinates.

And the difference is huge.

Bai Shi remembered that the text of the rusted anchor mentioned a message:
Among the large force that left the border at that time, there was a ship that stayed behind, and the faded people on it did not leave the border.

I wonder if those people just now were from that ship...

Bai Shi thought about it for a moment and quickly overturned this conclusion.

The timing of the activities at the border does not match.

The people closest to that period should be those in the old Round Table Hall.

If those people just now had stayed at the border since that era, it would be impossible for them to come out now.

In that case, it must be the faded one who just returned from outside the border area.

After leaving the border, Ge Fulei did not seem to interfere with the choices of the Faded Ones.

Therefore, the Faded Ones spread out everywhere outside the border area.

Some of the Faded Ones established large families outside the border areas, such as the Khosrow family.

Some even became royal families, such as Roderica's family.

Baizhi also has his own forces outside the border area.

Some people go out to fly solo, and naturally there are also those who choose to continue to fight with Ge Fulei.

It seems that these Faded Ones are the ones who have always followed Ge Fulei.

In the opening CG of the game, Ge Fulei was obviously killed outside the border area.

So what will Gefulei do after he is blessed with life?

Bai Shi didn't think that Ge Fulei would let go of his grudges with such a smile, so he immediately rushed back to the border.

Ge Fulei is the king of the beginning, and also the king of war with endless fighting spirit.

Even if he was carrying the 'Prime Minister Beast' Serloshu to suppress his fighting spirit, he would definitely engage in endless battles in the wilderness.

Even if it wasn't for revenge, but simply for fighting, Ge Fulei would definitely go find the person who killed him and fight him again.

No matter how Ge Fulei was killed before, he would never die in the same way again after being resurrected.

Even if the other party besieged them or used dishonorable means, Ge Fulei would make them use it again, and then use this new life to defeat them head-on.

This is exactly how Ge Fulei became king.

Strength is the reason for being king.

The best option is undoubtedly to carve out a new kingdom in the wilderness and then return to the border with his Faded People and the tribes in the wilderness.

If Bai Shi were to choose, he would also choose this method.

While regrouping the Faded Ones who once served under him, he conquered the Savage Land.

Although there will be some losses among the Faded Ones under his command in the war, the conquered barbaric tribes can also bring unparalleled powerful combat power.

Ge Fulei, who died there once, has the best say on their fighting ability.

Moreover, a larger territory means greater appeal, which means it is easier for the Faded Ones to know about Gefulei's resurrection and then defect back.

In this way, Ge Fulei will be able to quickly raise a large army, and when he returns to the border area, he will only need to push forward all the way without having to worry about not having enough manpower to take over the territory.

Bai Shi felt that Ge Fulei should have basically controlled the situation in the wilderness by now.

Now that we can send the vanguard back with peace of mind, are we preparing to return to the border area?
That group of faded ones headed north, definitely intending to go to the Yatan Plateau and then return to the royal city of Rodel.

With Ge Fulei's prestige in the border area, as long as they went to the Yatan Plateau and stated their identity and purpose, they could reach Rodel safely.

They may have come here to deliver Ge Fulei's message to the royal city.

No matter how you think about it, you know that the next situation will be unfavorable to Bai Shi.

If Mungert knew that his father, Gefulei, was coming back, he would definitely be waiting to hand over power to Gefulei.

After that, there was only one person in the border area who could openly compete with Gefulei for the title of King of Elden.

Bai Shi looked in the direction of the golden tree and couldn't help but frowned.

Do we need to go back and clean out that vanguard team?

After thinking about it for a while, Bai Shi shook his head.

They have already run very far away, and we can't catch up with them even if we try hard.

Even sending a large number of people to search the vast Kalia would be of no avail.

And the most important reason is that it is not necessary.

Because even if the vanguard team was wiped out, it would not affect Ge Fulei's process of returning to the border.

Their tip-off would only affect Rodel's strategy towards Bai Shi.

The only question is when Gefu Lei's army and himself will return to the border.

But no matter what, as long as Bai Shi wants to become the King of Elden, he is destined to fight with Ge Fulei in the future.

Thinking of this, Bai Shi suddenly felt enlightened.

Yes, so what if Graveley comes back?
He was destined to defeat them all anyway and become the King of Elden.

It's just that the order in which you defeat them needs to be based on first come first served.

Bai Shi no longer worried about the Faded Ones and Ge Fulei.

It doesn't matter, he will take action.

However, city defense may require more research.

The difference between a complete victory and a miserable victory is huge.

Bai Shi doesn't want Stonewell to be beaten again.

Bai Shi happened to be at the gate of Stonewell, so he decided to inspect the city defenses in person.

……

However, after a short while, Bai Shi gave up.

He was not a military or strategic researcher, so it was difficult for him to direct the city's defense.

After looking at it for a long time, he still couldn't see anything that needed improvement, so Bai Shi decided not to let an amateur guide the experts anymore.

This will avoid making a joke like moving the catapult 5 cm to the left.

Bai Shi entered Stonewell and took Slude to find his capable men.

Bai Shi will definitely pick up the remaining black knife assassins who are hiding in the future. Bai Shi plans to let Slude manage them.

Moreover, other assassins that might be trained in the future would also be handed over to Slude, who would specifically handle some secret matters for Bai Shi.

Sitting on the throne, Bai Shi summoned several storm eagles and asked them to call people over.

After receiving their tasks, the Storm Eagles dispersed and called the people that Bai Shi was looking for.

This time, the main purpose is to introduce future colleagues to Slude and let them meet Slude.

There were no Night Riders roaming around Nimgefor now, so Red and Andre were freed from patrolling.

They were the first two to arrive.

Bai Shi couldn't help but sigh, it would be great to have wings and be able to fly.

When the time comes, study the power of the furnace and use the Great Rune to learn the furnace's prayer.

After seeing the Crucible Knights, Slud felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, the Crucible Knights were once the powerful generals of the Golden Dynasty, and the eldest prince of the Golden Dynasty died at the hands of their black knife assassins.

The next person to arrive was Elissa.

When he saw Elissa, Slude was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Bai Shi had Samir people under his command.

Elissa was also somewhat surprised.

The two nodded to each other as a greeting.

The Xi people, the Ye people and the Samir people are related by blood, so naturally they like each other more.

After receiving Bai Shi's warning, the magic academy stopped harassing Stonewell.

So Elissa has returned to Stoneville, and only some Storm Eagles are still patrolling the border.

Originally, Elissa, Red, and Andre were all responsible for guarding.

But because Bai Shi was often away and now there were no external enemies, they basically had nothing to do.

This is completely opposite to Lancelet, who has an overwhelming workload due to Bai Shi's absence.

They can't help with government affairs, and now they occasionally show up at Stonewell's training ground as instructors.

Lancelet was the last to arrive because he had to work.

After Lancelet arrived, he looked at Slude, then at Bai Shi, and couldn't help but reveal an expression of relief.

I don’t know if he misunderstood the relationship between Bai Shi and Slude.

This also made Bai Shi silently swallow the words he was about to say to comfort Lancelet for his hard work.

Bai Shi wanted to explain it, but thought that the more he explained, the worse it would get, and there was nothing to explain, so he gave up.

Now, except for Hakan, who led the Dragonblood Knights to the underground to fight against the dragon soldiers, and Edgar, who was stationed in Morn City to take care of Irena, Bai Shi's confidants had gathered here.

As for Nefili, although she is not a confidant, Bai Shi also wants to call her over.

But Storm Eagle didn’t find anyone, and I don’t know if he was called away by Baizhi.

Seeing that most people had arrived, Bai Shi cleared his throat and introduced Slude to everyone:
"This is Slude, a new companion to Stonewell. She will also be given important duties in the future."

Everyone nodded to Slude and memorized her appearance, considering them as acquaintances.

Afterwards, Bai Shi introduced the other people to Slude, and the matter was over.

Although he wanted them to communicate with each other, Bai Shi thought that Lancelet was the only talkative one among the group and the situation would probably be awkward.

So Bai Shi gave up this doomedly awkward session and planned to let Elissa take Slude to visit Stoneville later.

But before that, Bai Shi has one more thing to do:

Now that most people are here, Bai Shi wants to bless them.

Although he did not have enough rune to bless every soldier under his command, it was enough to bless his trusted men.

Bai Shi still has hundreds of thousands of runes on him.

Anyway, it won't upgrade more than one or two levels, so why not bless it and see the effect.

"Next, I will bless you."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Blessing, this is something that only the former 'Eternal Queen' Marika could do.

Since the Ring of Elden was broken, Queen Marica has disappeared, and the blessings she once bestowed have also gone with her.

Having experienced all of this firsthand, Red and Andre understand the situation very well:

Even the golden army in the royal city had lost their blessing and could no longer enter the blessed space, but their eyes were still flashing with gold.

Instead, only the faded ones who were once exiled, among whom there are still a very small number, can see the blessing.

Bai Shi is worthy of being the Faded One who has been guided. Now he can actually let this great power return to the border area.

With this power, they are more confident that Bai Shi can become the King of Elden.

Bai Shi raised his hand and used the true power of the Great Rune.

Five solid golden runes floated out from Bai Shi's palm and gathered in the eyes of the five people.

The golden light in everyone's eyes shone brightly.

In this age when blessings are still fading away, they can now be said to be the most blessed people.

Bai Shi used quite a lot of runes this time, with each person consuming more than 30,000 runes.

In addition to being able to see blessings from now on, each of them also gained physical enhancements.

There is no doubt that their strength has been further improved.

The five people's reactions were also different.

Slude had no expression and accepted the blessing very calmly.

Elissa, Red and Andre were a little surprised, but this surprise was not about the power of blessing.

In previous wars, they were blessed heroes, so there was no need to be surprised.

What surprised them was that Bai Shi could really bestow blessings.

Lancelet is a descendant of the Storm King and has never been blessed by the golden tree. Now he is carefully feeling the power of the blessing.

“So this is the blessing?”

"My physical quality has improved, and it seems that there is more to it than that..."

"Speaking of which, it turns out there is a blessing on the ground here."

At the same time, he understood in his heart that it was no wonder that his ancestors had lost the war.

In the past, the blessing of the golden tree shone on every warrior.

Whether in terms of quantity or quality, Lancelet could not imagine how an army with the power of blessing could lose.

Not only are they feeling the power of blessing, but the white consciousness is also feeling it.

If I were to summarize it based on my own understanding, the operation of blessing is quite simple.

The blessing points are like base stations, and the blessed people are like being given a mobile phone that can access the Internet.

The Faded Ones and other lives who can no longer see the blessing are holding bricks in their hands, which are no longer useful.

Those who were given an extra blessing were given high-end mobile phones with better performance.

Looking at those pairs of golden eyes, Bai Shi realized that he could not bless Nefili, otherwise Bai Zhi would definitely get the information from her golden eyes that had lit up again.

This is information about the secrets of Darun. Fortunately, Nefili is not here.

　I got off the plane. The turbulence was so severe that I almost thought I was going to crash._(:з」∠)_
