Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 384 Wow, there are sites to pick up these things, it’s exaggerated
After a frantic run, Schiff ran straight into Bai Shi's arms.

Perhaps to outsiders, the scene of such a huge creature being caught steadily by Bai Shi might seem strange.

After all, Schiff’s size is no longer that of a puppy, and when he runs it’s like he’s driving a dragon car.

However, both parties involved just regarded this as a common prank.

Bai Shi rubbed Schiff's dog head, which was almost as big as himself, and then pushed it a little further away.

As Schiff grew in size, his horns started to become prickly.

Schiff's big tongue hung out, he was panting, and his tail was sweeping back and forth, shattering the fallen trees behind him into pieces.

Melina also came forward and touched Sif's hair, and turned around to introduce him to Laylana:
"Celin Shanks and Schiff are both valued companions to us."

"Please don't be so formal."

Laylana and Celine Sanx nodded to each other, then refocused their attention on Sif.

Looking at the huge and unique-looking Sif, Lailana was amazed.

Among Kalia's allies are wolves. It can be said that she has seen all kinds of wolves, and the red wolf is no exception.

However, this was the first time she had seen someone like Shiv.

Not to mention Princess Kalia's knowledge, there is no such creature even in the species collection.

Bai Shi rubbed Shiv's head and asked Celine Shanks:
"So, why did Shiv come here?"

Celine Sanx pointed her finger at her chin, thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"It was Shiv who sensed the breath of the ancestral spirit's revival."

"So it rushed all the way from Stonewell to look for its ancestors."

"I didn't know the situation at first, but I found out what was going on after I came here."

“As a result, when it came over, the ancestor spirit had just finished reviving from the ritual, and the fight began.”

"The final outcome was naturally that Schiff won smoothly."

Bai Shi was just about to learn more about the situation when, at this moment, another group of visitors appeared in the forest in the distance.

A large group of ancestral spirits followed Schiff's trail and gradually walked out of the forest.

At this time, not only Bai Shi was puzzled by their arrival, but the ancestral people were also equally confused, trying to understand why Schiff suddenly ran away?
After Schiff defeated the ancestors and had enough food and drink, he finally had the time to take care of the people of the ancestors.

The ancestral people tried to communicate with Schiff with great enthusiasm, but with little success.

Later, Schiff was so bored that he decided to ignore the Ancestral Spirits and return to Stonewell.

In the end, it was Celine Shanks who stepped in and intervened in the communication between the Ancestral People and Schiff to resolve the issue.

So the ancestral people finally made Schiff understand that it was now the boss and invited it back to its homeland.

As the guardian dragon, Celine Shanks also received the highest treatment and status.

But before they could communicate for long, they discovered an unprecedented storm heading towards here in the distance.

There has never been a tornado underground, so it naturally caused panic among the ancestors.

Before they could react, they found that Celine Shanks had already flown there first, and Schiff immediately started running towards that direction.

The bewildered ancestral people had no choice but to follow behind, and now they finally caught up.

At this time, watching the interaction between Bai Shi and Shiv, the people of the Ancestral Spirits quickly understood the current situation.

Obviously, that person is the owner of the ancestral spirit!

So, without hesitation, the high priest in the lead immediately knelt down before Bai Shi.

Bai Shi was looking at this group of ancestral spirits and felt very strange.

Sif came here on his own to look for the ancestral spirits, and it made sense for Celine Sanx to follow as the guardian dragon.

But what about these ancestral people?
And weren't the ancestors killed? They didn't look like they were going to seek revenge on Shiv, did they?

Seeing that group of ancestral spirits were chasing here, Celine Sanx quickly explained to Bai Shi:
"Well...it's still because of the ancestral spirits."

"Because the ancestors are unique beings, born under the concept of the law of 'nature'."

"The reincarnation of the ancestors from death is similar to the reincarnation of 'death', but it is not exactly the same. It is an independent system."

"And Schiff is also a competitor under this concept, and can also participate in the cruel competition of nature."

"Schiff is now the winner of the competition and enjoys the same status as the ancestors. This is also a manifestation of the laws that constitute 'nature'."

Bai Shi thought about it carefully and it seemed that when he first saw Schiff's previous generation, Celine Shanks had introduced him to the basic situation.

It’s just that at that time, Bai Shi didn’t have a deep understanding of the laws and things like that. Now I finally know what’s going on.

It’s a bit like the ecological chain in nature. All organisms in that chain are eligible to compete.

Zuling is not only the name of that unique life, but also a kind of status and position.

And now this position has been occupied by Schiff.

Bai Shi nodded slightly, roughly understanding it.

"In other words, the current Shiv has won the competition and replaced the original ancestral spirit?"

Celine Shanks nodded and replied:

"Yes."

"Of course, it's only at the most basic level."

"It's barely a coming-of-age ceremony."

After a pause, Celine Sanks continued:

"The people of the ancestors are followers of the law of 'nature'."

"So no matter how fierce and brutal the struggle within this system is, it makes no difference to them."

"So they only need to follow the winner, the 'ancestor spirit', and naturally accept the existence of Schiff."

Bai Shi nodded, understanding the current situation.

Since Schiff is a legitimate competitor, the ancestors will certainly have no objection.

However, Bai Shi was still very surprised when he learned that the ancestral people voluntarily submitted to Shiv, because this was equivalent to solving the communication problem with the underground.

Touching his chin, Bai Shi couldn't help but feel that this matter was a bit strange.

Wow, these were picked up on the site, so exaggerated.

I didn’t expect that not only would I have another achievement, but I would also be able to subdue the ancestral people.

The Ancestral People are a relatively friendly race, and they do not have any particular conflicts with other races.

It's just because they reject metal and civilization that they become somewhat xenophobic and very self-contained.

Moreover, due to the friction during the previous exploration of the Shifra River Basin, the relationship between the two sides was average after the contacts.

Now with Schiff building a bridge, the Ancestral Spirits have directly transformed from neutral units to friendly units.

By the way, it also helped Bai Shi resolve the previous conflicts and frictions between the underground and the ground.

Now we are all a family from now on, that’s great.

Bai Shi's plan for harmonious coexistence among all races has taken another big step forward.

Bai Shi came before the people of the Ancestral Spirits and said calmly:
"Since you have submitted to me, I will protect you as well."

"As the people of the sun, let us coexist with other races."

The high priest who led the group knelt down repeatedly and praised Bai Shi in a very unfamiliar human language.

The ancestral people behind him followed suit and pledged their allegiance.

After finishing the matter with the Ancestral Spirits, Bai Shi once again looked at Shiv and Celine Sanks. It just so happened that he had something to talk to Shiv about when he came back this time.

Now that we have encountered it, let’s talk about it now.

Bai Shi patted Schiff's side and said to it:
"Shiv, wait for a while, I will take you to a place."

"You have to help me find someone there, using your sense of smell."

"When exactly is that? I'll take you there when we're ready to leave."

"Before that, you should stay here underground and don't run anywhere else."

"Do you understand it?"

Schiff tilted his head, seeming a little confused.

But after a while, Schiff still shook his head violently, as if to indicate that he understood.

Although he had some doubts about whether it understood what he meant, Bai Shi didn't bother about it.

Schiff is usually quite smart, he should...

Anyway, with Celine Shanks watching over him, Schiff would definitely not get away.

And by then, Bai Shi will personally bring Schiff to the Shadow Land and take it with him for the subsequent operations, so there won't be any problems.

Celine Sanx stood aside and waited until Bai Shi finished giving Schiff his orders before asking:

"Master, are you going to take Shiv to the Shadow Land?"

Bai Shi nodded and replied:
"Yep."

"I'm looking for Michaela."

"Since there were no clues, I thought of asking Schiff to give it a try."

"Schiff has a very keen sense of smell. It would be great if we could find it."

"If you can't find it... then just take it out for a walk. There's no loss anyway."

After hearing Bai Shi's words, Celine Sanx immediately asked again:

"Then... Master, can I go with you?"

"I want to go to Spike Mountain and take a look."

Bai Shi thought about it and it seemed that the Spiked Mountain was where the 'Mad Dragon' Beile was?
The Spiked Mountains were also shrouded in shadows, and the area stripped from the borderland was the site of grievances between the ancient dragons and the flying dragons.

Initially, it was because Celine Shanks discovered that the location of the Spiked Mountain had disappeared from the border that Bai Shi found the information about the Shadow Land.

Bai Shi nodded and did not reject Celine Shanks' request.

Since he knew the whole story, now that Celine Shanks wanted to go to Spiked Mountain, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

In fact, Bai Shi is not particularly interested in the Spiky Mountain and the 'Mad Dragon' Beile.

After all, there is no clear benefit, so there is naturally no reason to go.

But since Celine Shanks wants to go, Bai Shi can pay a little attention to her next.

The main purpose is to ensure the safety of Celine Shanks to avoid any accidents.

Although Celine Sanx's strength is not weak, she is naturally no match for Beile, the 'Mad Dragon' who she claims can compete with the King of Ancient Dragons.

Bai Shi thought for a moment and said to Celine Shanks:

"In that case, you and Shiv should wait here underground."

"After I have settled the matter at the border, I will take you to the Shadow Land."

"Next I have to take the guests back to Kalia."

Celine Shanks nodded, lifted her skirt, bowed to everyone, and stepped back.

Bai Shi and Laelana exchanged a glance and asked her to give instructions.

Seeing that Bai Shi had finished processing, Laylana naturally immediately commanded the army, and Kalia's army set off again.

Celine Sanx led Shiv and the people of the ancestors and watched Kalia's army advance.
-
After boarding the elevator in batches and arriving at the foggy forest on the ground, Kalia's warriors were still somewhat incredulous.

Did they...really come out of the Shadow Land? Back to the Border?

The soldiers greedily breathed in the moist scent of the earth in the misty forest, and couldn't help feeling excited.

Every inch of the Shadow Land was soaked in blood and burned by fire.

There, the thick and lingering stench of corpses and the foul smell of decaying souls were everywhere, and everyone was like a walking corpse.

Now they finally had a sense of being alive and truly realized that they had set foot on the border again.

It was exhilarating to return from the dark and shadowy land to the borderland.

All the Kalia warriors, including Laelana, were extremely excited at the thought of returning to their hometown soon.

Laelana immediately raised her arm and gave the order:

"Warriors of Kalia, set out for your homeland!"

The warriors of Kalia raised their weapons high and shouted with great enthusiasm.

This army has been revived.

Bai Shi and Melina couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw the appearance of Kalia's army.

Now it is just Kalia's army, and later it will be all the warriors waiting for the light in the shadows.

Once the issues at the border are resolved completely, Bai Shi will definitely lift the seal, and the shadow will no longer exist.

Those warriors who were abandoned in the past and whose light of hope was obscured by shadows will see the light again in the new era.

And it will be the light of the sun which is brighter than the light of the golden tree.

Once everyone set foot in the foggy forest area, there was nothing else to worry about.

Kalia's warriors had a smooth journey and moved quickly.

The road from the Mist Forest to Stonewell has been repaired repeatedly and is now extremely wide and smooth.

If we ride the dragon beast at that speed and take some time to rest, we will arrive in a day or two.

The Kalia warriors, who were eager to return home, hardly rested on the way and relied entirely on their individual strength.

In the end, it only took two days and two nights to reach Stonewell, only slightly slower than the dragon beasts' speed.
-
Kalia's army did not enter Stonewell, but temporarily camped outside Storm Hill to rest.

And Lailana brought Multier, followed Bai Shi and Melina into Stoneville.

After returning to Stonewell, Bai Shi immediately went to Grandpa Iggy's place.

At this time, old man Iggy was still sitting in front of the forging table reading a book as usual.

Beside him were Blaze, who was restless and constantly swinging his sword, and Hetis, who was studying pyroxene tools.

Seeing Bai Shi and Melina coming, several people stopped what they were doing and offered their greetings.

Blaze and Hetis were confused when they saw Lailana and Mulittier, who were clearly dressed as Kalia knights.

However, when Iggy saw them, he was completely stunned.

When Iggy saw Laylana, his first reaction was to wonder if he was getting old and not in good spirits.

Why do I seem to see two people who shouldn’t be here?
When Iggy finally realized that the Lailana in front of him was the real person, he stood up excitedly.

"Oh, I am not seeing things..."

"Is it really Lady Layana who has returned?!"
