Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 23 Let go of that girl!
Torrett carried Melina in the white consciousness and soul states and quickly flew over the first half of the distance.

Then it began to fall slowly, and was about to reach the pillar of the ancient ruins, but it seemed to be losing strength, just one or two meters away.

The feeling of being strangled became more and more severe, and he was almost unable to breathe.

Torrett was not at all flustered. He stepped on the air like a dragonfly skimming the water and landed on the pillar gracefully and nimbly.

Torrett used a double jump, and the effect was outstanding!

Bai Shi also breathed a sigh of relief, in a physical sense.

Although I don’t know why I was so nervous that I couldn’t breathe just now, it is an extreme sport after all, so it’s normal to be nervous.

Bai Shi pulled Torret's reins, turned to the left, and patted Torret's neck against a rock.

Torrett understood and climbed up easily with two jumps.

We moved forward and soon arrived at a flat road, and the rest of the journey became easier.

This place is about two or three hundred meters away from the Sacrifice Bridge, so there is basically no need to worry about being discovered.

But Bai Shi still stuck to the edge of the rock wall and touched the edge of the blessing.

After touching the blessing, Bai Shi rode Torret to the avenue.

Bai Shi wanted to look for Irena along the avenue.

Soon, a figure appeared in Bai Shi's sight.

Her beautiful light golden hair was tied into a ponytail, her eyes were wrapped with several strips of cloth, and a few strands of hair were stuck to her pretty face by sweat.

A leather robe covered her graceful body, with her linen trouser legs slightly exposed underneath, and her feet wearing pointed black leather boots.

It was Irena, the daughter of the Lord of Moren.

At this moment, she was alone, holding on to a small stone fence on the roadside, and walking slowly forward. Due to her eye defect, she still stumbled even with the support.

However, behind her there was a figure wearing black armor and a hood, approaching Irena quickly, but Irena seemed unaware and was completely defenseless.

Bai Shi recognized the black-robed figure as the secret emissary who obeyed the orders of Shuangzhi.

Bai Shi didn't think he was here to protect Irena.

Especially after he saw Bai Shi, he took out the straight sword, which made Bai Shi certain that he had come with bad intentions.

Then it was obvious that the emissary used the assassin's prayer to eliminate the sound of his own walking.

Irena is a blind girl and can only rely on hearing, so she can't find it at all

So Bai Shi patted Torrett and asked him to run towards Irena at full speed.

At the same time, Bai Shi shouted to Irena:
"There's someone behind you! Protect yourself!"

The emissary on the other side also turned and ran, and the assassin's footwork could not cover up all the sounds.

Irena heard the sound of horse hooves coming from far ahead and thought she was saved, but what the man shouted scared her so much that her face turned pale.

Someone was actually following me, even though everything was quiet just now.

At the same time, there was a sudden sound of light footsteps behind him.

Irena could tell that it was a masked sound coming from nearby, not the sound of footsteps from far away.

Irena did not dare to hesitate, holding the holy seal in her hand, and used Prayer-Rejection.

Golden energy gathered on Irena's body and then exploded with a loud bang. The shock wave directly sent the secret agent behind her flying away.

'That was a close call.'

Bai Shi sighed inwardly, the secret envoy's sword was about to touch Irena's fragile body.

Fortunately, Irena's prayer of rejection bounced it away in time.

The secret envoy quickly stood up from the ground, but in just a short while, Bai Shi had already arrived on horseback.

Bai Shi rode on Torret and stood in front of Irena.

"Are you okay?"

Irena's face was pale and she was trembling all over. It was obvious that she was very frightened.

But she still shook her head firmly to indicate that she was fine.

"It's okay. No one can hurt you with me here." Bai Shi got off the horse, took Irena's hand, and let her sit on Torrett's back.

The emissary frowned upon seeing this.

"It's none of your business here."

Bai Shi held a ceremonial straight sword at his side in each hand, crossed it and drew it out, with the tip of the sword naturally pointing to the ground.

"Now there is."

The emissary was somewhat annoyed.

"Since we are both Faded, I don't want to kill you. But if you insist on doing what you want, I will have no choice but to kill you first."

After hearing this, Irena became even more frightened. After all, the person who helped her was just a stranger. If he handed her over because they were both Faded Ones, or to save his own life, then Moren City would be completely doomed.

"Hehe, hahahaha!"

Bai Shi smiled happily.

"You're so anxious! If you're really that strong, why don't you just rush over and chop me up? Besides, even if you chop me to death, my horse will run away with her."

"Whatever it was that made you want to kill this girl, you've failed now, you piece of shit."

The emissary's face flushed when he heard this, and he rushed forward with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.

"You don't understand anything! I'm on a great mission!"

Bai Shi blocked the secret envoy's sword with one sword and stabbed the secret envoy's armpit with the other sword.

The emissary quickly raised his shield to block the sword.

But Bai Shi raised his foot and kicked the shield. Although he did not knock him down, a hole had been created in the shield's defense.

Bai Shi did not miss this opportunity. He thrust two swords into the secret envoy's body, and two streams of blood spurted out.

"That's all? You're talking about a mission with this little strength. I'm going to laugh my head off."

When the secret envoy saw that he was no match for Bai Shi, he began to change his strategy.

He began to advise Bai Shi earnestly:

"I wasn't going to tell you, I was here to kill that girl on the orders of Master Two-Fingers."

"As a Faded One, you should know what this order means. Don't make an unforgivable mistake. Stop it!"

Bai Shi didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.

The emissary thought there was hope and continued:

"Let me kill her. After completing the task, I can guarantee you a chance to meet Master Two Fingers. Maybe you will have a chance to become Master Two Fingers' sharp blade like me."

"We are on the right path. If you can see the guidance of blessing, you should not persist in going astray!"

Bai Shi nodded.

"you're right."

A smile suddenly appeared on the emissary's face, while Irena felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave.

"But I refuse."

The emissary had a smile on his face.

Bai Shi rushed in front of the secret envoy, swinging his two swords tightly.

The secret envoy's shield could only cover important parts, and his legs and hands that were exposed outside the shield were cut by the knife, and the flowing blood continued to take his life.

"Why, why don't you follow Two Fingers' orders! What I said is true!"

"You bastard! Traitor to the law!"

The emissary's defense was broken. I don't know why the opponent was a madman.

Bai Shi found an opportunity and slashed the emissary's throat with a sword.

An expression of disbelief always remains on this face.

"I follow the guidance ≠ I follow the guidance of two fingers, the inequality is seconds."
