Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 387: There are things to avoid, but long live love
For many epilepsy patients, this is definitely an unforgettable day.

In the surveillance tower a moment ago, the patients suffering from pain were still sinking into madness and chaos.

Along with despair and pain, what was summoned was the blazing sun.

The more they suffered from the ravages and torture of the insane fire, the stronger the sun of the insane fire became, and the more unbearable the pain they endured became.

They are not believers in madness, and they never think that madness is salvation.

Not knowing the true nature of epilepsy, in their eyes it is undoubtedly a horrible infectious disease.

The spread of epilepsy will not change because of their will.

Unable to stop it, he will probably continue to suffer pain and torture for the rest of his life, until his mind is completely destroyed by despair and he becomes one with chaos.

However, today, the fiery sun that symbolized madness was shattered.
-
After shooting down the Mad Fiery Sun, Bai Shi flew calmly towards the surveillance tower.

From the location where they flew up, they just passed the surveillance tower and then headed west to Dianhuo Village.

Although the problem of the crazy flaming sun hanging on the surveillance tower has been solved, there are still some follow-up issues that need to be dealt with.

Epilepsy fire, an extremely troublesome pollutant, must be properly handled and cannot be left at will.

This is called recycling work.

Otherwise, the remnants of the fire will affect the environment. The valley bottom where Midra Mansion is located is the best example.

Bai Shi came to the bottom of the surveillance tower, where there were also creatures infected with the fire.

For example, there are giant rats everywhere, and on the surveillance tower, there are people infected by the Mad Sun.

Bai Shi waved his hand casually, and the rats infected with the fire were instantly wiped out.

The faint epileptic fire that used to reside in their bodies slowly floated towards Bai Shi's arm and merged into it.

However, as soon as they came into contact, the wisps of crazy fire began to surge as if boiling.

This is natural. Bai Shi's crazy fire has been tamed and is a completely different existence from them.

Bai Shi grabbed that tiny bit of crazy fire and refined it in an instant.

Under the dual pressure of quantity and quality, those who did not cause any ripples merged with the white consciousness.

The power of the epileptic fire on the arm also increased a tiny bit, almost negligible.

Feeling that the recovery was successful, Bai Shi nodded and looked towards the surveillance tower.

Looking at the epileptic patients on the surveillance tower with numb expressions, holding their heads in painful gestures, Bai Shi raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put it down.

Except for believers like Chapolili who actively spread epilepsy, other epilepsy patients are not considered targets that need to be eliminated in the eyes of Baishi.

They are just powerless and despair of this world.

Moreover, epilepsy itself is contagious and is a borderline disease that is difficult to cure.

The common people knew that it was the characteristic of epilepsy, but in the border area, the uninformed people could only think that it was a disease.

A considerable number of people do not embrace epilepsy voluntarily, but are infected and tortured by it.

In the past, Bai Shi had no good way to deal with it, but now we have Irena who has inherited the fairy heritage.

I guess using the lake light could be a cure.

However, Irena was not around at the moment, so it was a little unrealistic to ask her to come for treatment.

But Bai Shi was not prepared to leave these patients alone.

Now Bai Shi has already analyzed the Mad Fire, and he even holds some of the power of the King of Mad Fire in his hands.

After all, no matter how strange the evil fire is, it cannot transcend the rules of the world.

A special energy, a special flame, a power that can still be traced in Bai Shi's eyes.

Maybe he could try treatment himself.

The power of the devilish fire in Bai Shi's left hand was completely released, but he did not take the next step.

As the Mad Fire rose, the pressure that belonged only to the King of Mad Fire spread again.

And this time it's a little different.

Under the pressure of the King of Madness, Bai Shi conveyed his will to Madness.

The King of Mad Fire has the ability to control the Mad Fire downwards, which is one of his powers.

But now, part of the authority and power of the Mad Fire King has been seized by Bai Shi.

With Bai Shi's tentative actions, the results were unexpectedly very good.

Those tiny flames from the surveillance tower and the Fire Village continued to flow towards Bai Shi obediently without any resistance.

The insanity that resided in the eyes of the infected easily abandoned its hosts.

One person's flame is weak. If you want to light up the world, you must first melt away the barriers between each other.

Just as Haida the Fire Witch said, the lights on the other side are far away and the flames are small.

Therefore, it is impossible to tell the difference just by one person's eyes.

Only by focusing your eyes can you feel it.

But with the powerful King of Mad Fire leading the way, there is no need to continue the inefficient spread.

However, the crazy fire that slowly fell into Bai Shi's hands was extinguished in an instant and assimilated into harmless power.

They clearly gathered together because they sensed the control of the Mad Fire King...

Your Majesty, why are you rebelling?!
As the madness gathered, Bai Shi also gained a deeper understanding.

If the flame of the sun is the firewood that burns itself, it obtains temperature and releases warmth to the world.

Then the fire of madness is to use others as fuel in an attempt to ignite a fire that will burn the world.

Pain and despair are its fuel. What the firewood thinks is not important at all.

After all, the purpose of the mad fire is to burn away everything that separates each other and return the world to chaos.

When everything returns to chaos, this emotion will be nothing.
-
Even after the epileptic fire was extracted, the damage caused by the burning and melting was still not eliminated.

Those empty eye sockets were the evidence of Dianhuo's crimes.

But then immediately another ray of gentle sunlight descended, and the eyes that had been destroyed by the insanity gradually recovered.

After casually treating these epileptic patients, Bai Shi did not stay and did not care about their gratitude.

Now Bai Shi is anxious to go to the Church of Silence to meet that Vic.

When he was recovering the crazy fire just now, he felt that there was a strong aura of crazy fire over there, and he did not rush over obediently.

Vic's will resisted the return of the madness.

Because he was gifted with the insane fire in the past, Vic still obtained the powerful power of the insane fire.

Even though this power is incomplete, the power of madness and fire bestowed by three fingers is meant to make him the king of madness and fire.

Therefore, even if he had not completely become the King of Madness Fire, Vic's Madness Fire could not be taken away by Bai Shi with a casual wave of his hand.

After confirming Vic's existence, Bai Shi naturally couldn't wait to study him.

Heading towards the Silent Church, Melina followed Bai Shi and couldn't help but speak:

"Bai Shi, the power of the Mad Fire is still too ominous..."

Bai Shi has been using this power quite frequently lately, and Melina is a little worried.

Although I know that Bai Shi is confident, I still can't help but worry.

Bai Shi touched his chin. If it was normal epilepsy, then it was indeed.

But after being purified by Feng Ling Yue Ying, this madness was truly harmless to him.

Although he mentioned it to Melina, he couldn't explain the specific effect, so he decided to blame it on the sun.

So Bai Shi gave Melina a reassuring look and said:
"Don't worry, times are different now."

"After all, the Suns also took action at that time, so there is no need to worry."

"How can a mere insane fire be compared to the sun? It is already under control."

Melina pouted slightly, feeling as if her concerns were somewhat ignored.

Anyway, it’s good that Bai Shi knows what’s going on. Maybe she’s just worrying too much.

Without saying anything else, the two continued walking until they reached the door of the Silent Church.

On the grass outside the silent church, as if sensing the intruder, a force quickly gathered.

An eyeball that was burnt and yellow, with finger marks and burn marks clearly visible, was inexplicably suspended in the air, and the power of insanity was constantly released from it.

A violent fire exploded out of nowhere at the location of the eyeball, and in the fire, the figure of "Vic" slowly walked out.

The eyeballs had been absorbed by the armor covered with burn marks, and were shining brightly under the helmet.

'Vic' waved his right hand, and a twisted spear flew into his hand from the Silent Church, pointing directly at Bai Shi.

Bai Shi watched the entire process of Vic's formation and appearance.

In fact, Bai Shi had many opportunities just now to interrupt Vic when he was concentrating.

But Bai Shi didn't have such an idea.

It's not that he was trying to maintain the worldview that 'transformation cannot be interrupted', Bai Shi originally wanted to see Vic's strength.

Moreover, Bai Shi has always liked the character of Vic. He can be called a quasi-king together with Bernal, and he may even be stronger than Bernal in the past.

Bai Shi admired such a powerful knight and such a touching experience.

So Bai Shi decided to compete with each other as a knight.

After observing him now, Bai Shi finally had some idea of his existence.

It is obvious that Vic's real body is still in prison, there is no doubt about it.

What is here is just a clone that projects power through its eyes.

The seal could not contain the madness, and by borrowing the power that spanned space, Vic was able to protect the witch's body.

However, this spear is also genuine. Vic left his sharpest spear here.

Without waiting for Bai Shi to think any more, Vic took the lead in attacking, with a fire bursting out from his eyes and shooting out rapidly.

Then Vic picked up the big spear and quickly charged towards Bai Shi.

Looking at the oncoming fire in the air, Bai Shi gently moved his left hand forward to block it, and the fire was tightly grasped in his hand.

When he opened his hands again, Bai Shi had already prepared his return move.

"Using insanity against me won't work."

"With the power of the Mad Fire King, victory is a matter of course!"

The crazy fire on Bai Shi's left arm twisted into the shape of a strange weapon, with three crossbows arranged in sequence.

The Yavanlin crossbow is one of Bai Shi’s favorite crossbows, and it’s also a tribute to a certain bow and arrow demon.

Suddenly, countless fiery arrows shot out at an incredible speed, shooting straight towards Vic.

The terrifying firing rate is even comparable to the legendary left-handed machine gun!

The chivalry of Baizhi is burning brightly.

As countless crazy arrows shot out, Vic immediately gave up his forward charge and quickly dodged to the side.

The speed was so fast that even the swift fire arrows could only grazed Vic's body, and only a few advance shots hit him.

The completely different kind of crazy fire power penetrated into the fictional body, and Vic didn't feel good, but he had to continue moving his body.

But suddenly, Vic stopped running, waved his spear, and created a storm in front of him.

The dense array of arrows immediately overwhelmed him, and he retreated backwards one after another, his body swaying as if he was about to collapse into a primitive madness.

One of the walls of the church behind him suddenly collapsed, engulfing Vic's body.

Although Bai Shi wanted to compete with him, unfortunately the gap in strength was too big.

After all, what's here is just a clone, so having 70% to 80% of the power is considered pretty good.

Bai Shi stopped shooting out crazy flames and looked behind Vic, only then he understood why he did that.

The church behind him had been shot to pieces, and this location was exactly where the witch's body was.

If he hadn't blocked it, the witch's body would have been hit by the shot that penetrated the church.

Bai Shi put away the fire in his left hand and clicked his lips.

He almost hurt someone by mistake. He didn't want to harm the witch's body, so he had to be careful next time.

At this moment, in the collapsed and broken wall, Vic's figure was constantly filled with surging crazy fire, and he rushed towards Bai Shi again with a spear in his hand.

This time Vic held the spear in both hands, jumped high into the air, and attacked Bai Shi.

However, when Vic jumped into the air, his eyes suddenly went dark, and he found that Bai Shi's figure rose into the air faster than him.

At this moment, another weapon appeared in Bai Shi's hand—the Sword of Eternal Punishment.

"Please be patient for a while."

The sword of eternal punishment in Bai Shi's hand pierced straight into Vic's head and instantly penetrated his chest and abdomen.

As Bai Shi's mind moved, the sword of eternal punishment suddenly opened from Vic's body, and the golden barbs pierced through his body.

Even the body that was deeply trapped in madness couldn't help but let out a painful roar like a wild beast.

Dianhuo's body suddenly exploded, leaving only Dianhuo's eyeball.

Because of the epilepsy, Vic had already fallen into madness and pain, but this level of pain was the first time he had encountered it.

But soon, in the pain, Vic remembered something.

For example, an indomitable and strong will.

The power of the insane fire once again condensed his body, and cracks gradually appeared in his burnt eyeballs, almost collapsing.

Not taking its own existence to heart at all, it gathers itself together tenaciously and firmly time and time again.

Bai Shi did not use the fighting skill of the Great Sword of Eternal Punishment to let it explode, but simply controlled Vic.

Looking at Vic struggling frantically on the sword, Bai Shi couldn't help but watch.

Thanks to the power of the fire, Vic was able to stand up again and again, but the pain was real.

What exactly is driving this body?
No consciousness, no soul, just an empty shell.

What fills this body is love, nothing more.

In the madness of the rage, Vic had nothing left, but he still remembered the happy memories.

Even though all the love, hatred, and vengeance would melt away in the madness, at this moment, he is still holding on, and that is enough.

Looking at Vic, Melina, who was watching the battle, finally couldn't help but speak:

"Almost, it's time to let go."

"He was a Knight of the Round Table whose figure was as noble as the wind..."

"Vic, the way you refuse to let go is really unbearable."

Melina walked up to Vic, who was pierced by the Eternal Punishment Greatsword, and spoke again:

"She is the Finger Witch. She knows her own destiny and is determined to embark on this path."

"Those who walk with fire will one day meet their destined death."

"Please don't trample on her determination with your rage anymore."

As Melina spoke, Vic suddenly froze and gradually lowered his struggling arms.

Impaled by the Great Sword of Eternal Punishment, he was forced to raise his head.

Vic's fiery eyes stared at the sky, regaining clarity after a long time.

Even at that desperate end, when everyone ended up going crazy without exception, Vic was still slightly more insane.

Although he was desperate, he was not desperate. He just wanted to take the responsibility of sacrifice.

In this rare place in Lienia where one can get close to the sky, he finally saw the blue sky again.

Even when he came to a standstill on his difficult journey, the clear blue sky still embraced him.

That was the noble figure like a raging storm that was engraved in the witch's eyes and heart.

"Is this the reason why you chose this place?"

'Is that what you think?'

However, what was struggling under that sky was the now pathetic and ugly figure.

"You don't look like a hero anymore" - if she were still here, she would definitely say this.

It was the madness that blinded Vic's heart.

Because he cherished this journey and this emotion, he was taken advantage of by Dianhuo.

Vic stopped struggling, his figure slowly dissipated and floated towards Bai Shi's arm.

All that was left was the burnt eyeball and the spear that had accompanied him throughout his life.

Active dissipation, this is the proof of Vic's final victory over the Mad Fire.

When Bai Shi saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh that there have always been so many tragic stories about insanity since ancient times.

"Madness is something that cannot be touched. It is a chaos that will devour all life and all thoughts.

“Even if this world is in ruins, filled with pain and despair.”

"As long as there is life, the world will continue to thrive... everything is still beautiful."

This is also the reason why Melina doesn't want to come into contact with the epilepsy fire for nothing.

…If you deny these, you are not a king.

How can there be a king in a world without life?
Bai Shi picked up the eyeball and took it into the church.

Looking at the witch's body, Bai Shi chose to bury them together here.

After completing the burial, Bai Shi picked up a huge stone and used fire to condense it on his fingertips.

Just like writing down a proverb, Bai Shi left a sentence here:

'There are things to avoid, but long live love'
