Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 31 Entering the City
Bai Shi was at a loss for a moment as he had too little information at hand. The only thing that was clear was that the forces of Two Finger and Three Finger had both set foot on this peninsula.

I'm afraid it's not just Irena they're after.

At the very least, the two fingers are targeting more than just Irena.

Because they had many opportunities to get rid of Irena, whether by assassination in the city or by assault during the rebellion.

But they let Irena run away, and later they only sent a very weak secret envoy to deal with Irena.

There must be some more important task in Moren City that kept the remaining people in the city.

The remaining lion hybrid and the other two people might be difficult to deal with, especially if the opponent is cooperating.

As for Three Fingers, although we don't know what his intentions are, it's best to be mentally prepared, as there may be people infected with Madness lurking in the city.

"Mr. Bai Shi..."

Irena's trembling voice revealed a plea.

"Well, let's go now."

"By the way, thank you for the information. It's been a great help."

Yanogo waved his hand.

"There's nothing to thank me for. Just be careful on the road. Those guys are probably very strong."

Bai Shi stood up, blew the whistle, and called Torret to his side.

I helped Irena up. She was like a newborn deer and her legs were unstable.

Riding on Torret, Irena hugged Bai Shi from behind as usual. Bai Shi could feel her trembling body through the armor.

Bai Shi didn't know what to say to comfort Irena, so he could only urge Torrett to run at full speed.

Soon, the towering city of Moren appeared at the end of the field of vision. The city of Moren was built on an isolated mountain.

The terrain was very peculiar, with steep cliffs on all sides. No one would have thought that someone could jump over the outer wall and invade.

A huge golem guards the city.

"Irena, as long as you have the token with you, you won't be attacked by the golem, right?"

"Yes, I have the token with me, just rush over without worry."

Torrett sped along the avenue and passed by a stone tablet of the same type as the one in front of the checkpoint.

Bai Shi did not stop to look for the map, but he had to go to the phantom little golden tree shining on the hillside next to him.

If you can get the golden seeds, you can increase the number of Holy Grail bottles you can use, which is very important.

Bai Shi drove Torret along the hillside to the small golden tree. Bai Shi found the golden tree seed on the ground. It was a very large seed.

After picking up the seeds, they continued to head towards Moren City, but at this moment something strange happened.

"Whoosh-"

A huge arrow flew towards them.

Bai Shi quickly jumped down the hillside on his Toret. A giant arrow flew over his head and hit the place where it had just stopped, splashing up large pieces of rubble.

Bai Shi looked back and saw that the huge arrow was deeply embedded in the rock, smashing the small golden tree to pieces.

"G-what was that just now?"

Irena was startled by the loud noise.

"It was the arrow shot by the golem. It seems the token is no longer effective."

"Hold me tight, let's rush over."

Bai Shi knew that the golem's range was very long, and he would not be able to escape the range if he turned around now. Moreover, he could not see the opponent's movements, making it even more difficult to dodge.

There is a large empty plain ahead, which should be difficult to rush through, but fortunately, there are many huge ruins fragments on this plain.

Bai Shi wanted to use these shelters to rush over and cut down the golem. Bai Shi kept pace with the golem's shooting intervals and moved through the debris of the ruins.

But the last section of the road is exposed to the shooting of the golem.

After waiting for the golem to shoot the next arrow, Bai Shi urged Torret to rush out from behind the ruins. The golem's movements of drawing the bow and shooting the arrow were very slow, but this distance was not short.

When Bai Shi had rushed over most of the way, the golem shot out its next arrow.

Torret accelerated and his speed increased again, and the giant arrow landed behind him safely.

Before the next arrow, Bai Shi finally arrived at the feet of the golem.

Bai Shi waved the halberd in his right hand and slashed wildly at the golem's legs.

This golem has been in disrepair for a long time, and the outer shell of its legs is badly damaged. Lava-like liquid can be seen flowing inside the cracks.

The golem felt the attack on its legs, and belatedly put away its half-drawn bow, and instead tried to attack Bai Shi with its hands and feet.

But Torret was very agile and shuttled back and forth under the golem's feet, leaving the slow-moving golem helpless.

As Baizhi pierced into the crack of the golem's leg, its leg finally couldn't bear the weight, the outer shell cracked inch by inch, and molten liquid gushed out.

One of the golem's legs lost power and could no longer support its body, so it fell forward.

Bai Shi took the opportunity to run to the golem's chest, where there was a huge furnace, which was the golem's power source.

Bai Shi found the gap in the furnace, poked in hard, and pulled it out violently, successfully destroying the furnace. Flaming liquid kept pouring out.

The golem struggled to get up, but as the liquid continued to drain away, it gradually lost power and collapsed to the ground.

Bai Shi breathed a sigh of relief as the problem was solved without any danger. At this moment, Bai Shi saw several crystal throwing knives embedded in the golem's waist.

It seems that someone used a crystal flying knife to interfere with the operation of the golem, causing the golem to fall into confusion and be unable to recognize the token.

The magic power in the body was suddenly drawn and released automatically, creating a storm.

Bai Shi suddenly turned his head and looked behind him. A pitch-black and silent crossbow arrow was intercepted by the storm and was now falling crookedly to the ground.

Bai Shi followed the direction from which the crossbow arrow came and saw a black-robed figure turning around and leaving on the city wall.

Bai Shi's heart was pounding. The crossbow arrow had just been shot out when he was relaxed, without any sound at all.

If the ancient king had not used his magic power to block the storm, no matter whether the target was himself or Irene, their lives would probably be in danger.

Melina's voice rang in my ears:

"That crossbow arrow seemed to be something that belonged to a secret emissary. It made almost no sound, was completely black, and the barbs were stained with different poisons."

"The city's narrow terrain makes it difficult to fight on a Toret."

"Let Torrett take Irena outside the city. Torrett is very smart and won't be easily shot by crossbows or bows if he is prepared."

Bai Shi thought about it and decided that this was indeed the safest approach. After entering the city, they would not be able to escape on horseback, and Torret and Irena might be injured by mistake.

Outside the city, even if they chased out and wanted to hurt Irena, they couldn't catch up with Torrett in the car.

Bai Shi gave Irena some instructions and told Torrett to run away if anything went wrong.

Watching them go away, Bai Shi turned around and walked down the stairs to the main gate of Moren City.

A huge city defense shield blocked the platform in the middle, and the flamethrower was facing outside the city.

With these defensive equipments, it was extremely difficult to attack the city, but they encountered a rebellion from within.

Stepping over the bodies of the soldiers at the door, Bai Shi entered the main gate.

　There is an armory at the entrance of Morn City, which contains a lot of things, including the same flamethrower as Stonewell, swords, and spears, which are enough to arm a dozen people to defend the city. Unfortunately, it is a rebellion. Then, 4 or 5 crystal throwing knives can be shot at the stone enemy to make it unable to distinguish between friend and foe (golems, tree-returning guard dogs, etc.), which is quite interesting. By the way, please give me some free recommendation tickets∩_∩
