Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 388: Lani: I Need You
After doing all this, Bai Shi stood up.

"The Church of Silence is a good name."

"No one will bother her anymore."

Melina followed Bai Shi closely, sighing silently at the tragedy.

Bai Shi came to the battlefield and took away Vic's spear.

This spear with burnt finger marks was tortured by the same yellow fire as Vic, burning from the inside out.

Vic left his indestructible spear here as a shield to protect the witch and as an extension of his will.

If there is a chance in the future, Bai Shi intends to return it to Vic.

Now, the clones created by the power of crazy fire can all be awakened to human will in the end.

Then the situation might be better in the main body far away in the snow-capped mountains.

That is to say, Vic might still be saved.

After all, the 'Knight of the Round Table' Wick in the Snow Mountain Prison does not use Mad Fire, but only Dragon Thunder Prayer.

Even the combat skills unleashed by weapons no longer carry the insane fire.

Vic wouldn't have taken this path if he had no other choice.

Madness is the embodiment of chaos, which can arbitrarily seduce and use people's emotions as fuel.

Even a potential king can be tempted by Him sometimes.

But Dianhuo will never understand the so-called human will.

That was Vic's human pride in the face of the maddening whispers of the fire.

The insanity is strong and corrodes the mind. No one can defeat Him in the inner war of mental disintegration.

But how could He, who longed to return everything to chaos, know human emotions?

Even if the choice made is wrong, even if one goes astray, there are people who will never give up resistance.

The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage.
-
The matter of Dianhuo came to an end, and Bai Shi brought Melina all the way to the Yatan Plateau.

The destination is still the swamp filled with countless mobile coffins.

Huge coffins were dumped here at random, and many of them had been damaged or overturned.

As a result, a large number of corpses were scattered from the coffins and turned into dry bones under the passage of time.

No matter what the circumstances are, there is blessing nearby, and that is enough.

Standing on a coffin next to the blessing, Melina looked at the golden tree towering in the distance.

Looking at the golden trees from the Yatan Plateau is different from anywhere else on the border.

Only here can people feel their own insignificance under the giant tree that covers the sky, and truly feel the grandeur of the golden tree.

As a result, even the people born at the foot of the golden tree seem to become very special.

The residents of the plateau still believe this and are proud of it.

But in Melina's eyes at this moment, the golden tree looked extremely bleak.

Just from the fallen leaves, Melina could see the decline of the golden tree.

Melina was born at the foot of the Golden Tree, and it was there that she received the mission bestowed upon her by her mother...

However, now that she was back home, Melina suddenly found that she was not as emotional as she had imagined.

After all, in the fragments of her past memories, she didn't have much worth reminiscing about at the foot of the golden tree.

Emotions such as joy, lamentation, and confusion also exist, but they are insignificant.

It can be said that her life truly began after she met Bai Shi.

Not as a demigod, a fire girl, or a golden person, but just as a human being.
-
Bai Shi looked at Melina's back and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

When I first met Melina, the condition we agreed on was to bring her to the foot of the golden tree, and now it has finally been accomplished.

Although it was said to be a transaction at the beginning, in the end, the person was taken down as well.

Bai Shi can only say that it is a win-win situation, a win-win situation in which he wins twice.

At this moment, Melina turned around and said:
"Bai Shi, I have to go to the Royal City next."

Bai Shi was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he found it very reasonable.

Melina wanted to return to the foot of the golden tree, so naturally she must have plans to return to the royal city.

Bai Shi nodded and said:

"Well, I'll go with you then."

Now Lani hasn't contacted him to start any action, and there is no rush to collect the information from the volcano.

But Melina shook her head at this time.

"No need. Don't you have other things to do on the plateau?"

"Whether it's the two-finger thing or the collection of the Great Rune."

Bai Shi smiled and took Melina's hand.

"Of course your business is more important."

Hearing Bai Shi's words, Melina also smiled slightly.

"I'm happy to hear you say that."

"But it's really not necessary."

"It's perfectly sufficient for me to go on my own; don't worry about me."

Melina was confident that she could enter the royal city without being discovered by anyone.

Then she would search for the past in the royal city, trying to retrieve all her memories.

Although Melina said so, Bai Shi was still somewhat worried.

After all, many things are different from games now.

In the game, Melina was still in the state of a soul when she arrived at the Yatan Plateau, and of course she could enter and exit the royal city at will.

But now that I have a body, it is naturally not that convenient.

Moreover, the royal city could not be completely defenseless, and Monget must be on guard against possible invaders at all times.

After all, Mongt and Baishi have opposite goals. If he doesn't want Baishi to be king, he will actively try various preventive measures.

Before Ge Fulei came back, what he needed to worry about most was that the royal city would be robbed, so he was absolutely on high alert.

The only advantage is that Melina now has more memories of the royal city and is more familiar with it, which should come in handy.

After a while, Melina was about to speak again to persuade Bai Shi.

Bai Shi shook his head and said to Melina with a smile:

"I believe you."

"Just like you always believe in me, I believe in you."

"Since you've said that, I certainly won't reject your idea."

However, Bai Shi looked into Melina's eyes and said:
"But there is one question you must answer for me."

"Only after I get your answer can I let you go to the Royal City without any worries."

Melina nodded and said seriously:

"Well, go ahead and ask. I don't want to make you worry."

Bai Shi looked at Melina and asked:
"Are you going to Rodel for the mission?"

"If it is, it is no longer necessary. The sting of rejection is not a problem at all."

“There is no fire in the world brighter than the sun.”

"With the power of the sun, no sacrifice is required."

"I need you more than anything else."

Melina finally understood what Bai Shi was worried about. She smiled and shook her head, then replied:

"Please rest assured, I am not going there for a mission this time."

"Although it does have something to do with the mission, it's also for my own satisfaction."

“I want to regain my past memories.”

"My memory has never been completely unsealed, you know." Melina rarely had anything she longed for.

She just wanted to stay with Bai Shi and see a better place to meet him.

But her own origins were the few truths she longed to explore.

Even though Rodel did not leave her with any special memories, hometown is hometown.

Melina's memory is still incomplete.

At the beginning, Melina's mind was only about the mission and the various skills she would need on the road.

Not only does he have very few memories about himself, he doesn't even know the specific content of his mission.

I have no idea why the body can continue to survive after its physical body is burned and transformed into a soul.

Later, when she was reshaping her body, Queen Lenarra unlocked some of Melina's memories, which allowed her to know many things in advance.

If possible, Melina also hopes to complete the remaining memories that have not been unsealed.

Only in this way can she be considered completely complete.

Bai Shi suddenly realized that Melina was going to start completing herself.

He was originally afraid that Xiao Mu was secretly planning to burn him to death, but in this case he had nothing to worry about.

Bai Shi suddenly remembered that he seemed to have something that he had not given to Melina.

Bai Shi took out a talisman from the space disc, which was the 'Grace of the Golden Tree +2'.

A symbol of the Golden Tree's special favor and one of the "legendary amulets".

It is said that Queen Malika herself gave this amulet at the beginning of the Golden Tree Age and it has special significance.

The image is exactly the scene of Queen Malika being surrounded by golden branches and leaves when she bestows grace, which is the most suitable gift for Melina.

When Melina received this amulet of extraordinary significance from Bai Shi, she was also very surprised.

"This is……"

Bai Shi touched Melina's hair and said a little embarrassedly:

"This is a gift for you."

"In fact, I should have given it to you when we were in the Shadow Land..."

"But I was so busy with my treatment at the time that I forgot about it."

"Since you are going back to Rodel now, it is quite appropriate to give it to you now."

After thinking for a while, Bai Shi took out the piece of 'Legend of the Sun' again.

Holding this special amulet, Bai Shi once again poured the power of the sun into it.

The carved sun became scorching hot, just like a real sun.

On this amulet, Bai Shi has already stamped his unique mark of the sun.

Bai Shi placed the amulet in Melina's hand and said gently:

"Carry this amulet with you at all times."

"As long as you call me, I will come to you immediately."

With the help of the mark, Bai Shi can always know Melina's location.

Combined with the various techniques that he had learned and mastered before, Bai Shi could also try to use this as the coordinates and teleport directly there.

All you need to do is transform yourself into a soul rush state, and then teleport through the flame anchor point that acts like a blessing.

Although I haven't tried it yet, it should be achievable.

Melina felt warm in her heart as she touched that fiery power.

Compared to the precious, legendary amulet, this amulet containing Bai Zhi's concern made her happier.

Melina took the amulet, held it tightly in her hand, and put it away solemnly.

Suddenly, Melina took two steps forward and hugged Bai Shi tightly, then raised her face and stood on tiptoe.

Their lips and teeth immediately touched each other, warming each other.

After a gentle kiss, Melina smiled, took two steps back, and waved to Bai Shi.

"You always worry too much about the people around you."

"I don't have as much to worry about as you do. I just want to say I love you right now."
-
The whistle was blown, and Torrett carried Melina and ran quickly towards the golden tree.

Bai Shi stood still, quietly watching Melina's figure gradually disappear on the Yatan Plateau.

After a while, Bai Shi took out the petite Lani doll from the space disc.

Originally, Melina had no objection to Lani, and there was no problem with them acting together.

But considering Lani's personality, it seems to be just right now.

Bai Shi poked the petite Lani's head and began to call Lani.

He didn't even have a specific map of the Yatan Plateau. He only knew the approximate location but didn't know the way.

In the game, you can find any location with your wits, but the border area is actually much larger.

For example, in the game there is a foggy forest that is not even as big as a park, but ordinary people would really get lost and die in it.

Besides, Lani hasn't given him a specific location yet, so Bai Shi can't run around aimlessly.

However, after waiting for a while, the petite Lani still did not respond.

Seeing this situation, Bai Shi frowned and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

Fortunately, the moonlight mark on his body was still intact, proving that the worst situation had not yet occurred.

There was no point in being anxious, Bai Shi had to wait patiently.

Fortunately, after a while, Lani finally responded.

However, instead of putting his consciousness into the petite Lani, he directly used the mark of moonlight to communicate.

In the Moonlight Mark, Lani's voice came intermittently:

"Sorry, I had some trouble here..."

Lani's voice was a little weak, and along with it came the howling of wild beasts.

However, even so, Lani still pretended to be calm and said:

"In short, it's still under control."

"...I'll contact you later."

But Bai Shi already knew Lani well enough.

Bai Shi knew as soon as he heard it that Lani's current situation was definitely not as simple as she said.

Self-esteem often holds people back and makes love take a roundabout way.

Without giving Lani a chance to continue, Bai Shi interrupted her.

Standing up, Bai Shi prepared to leave while saying to Lani:
"Don't hold on any longer."

"Where are you."

"I'll go over now."

On the other side, Lani gritted her teeth, finally let go of her reserve at this juncture, and said softly:
"Um……"

"Thurlis probably guessed my plan, and it seems to be a dying counterattack."

"I'll use the moonlight to guide me, please..."

"I need you."

Listening to Lani's softer voice than ever before, Bai Shi frowned.

It seems that the situation may be a little worse than imagined.

The mark of moonlight emitted a soft and bright light, and a force connected the two people.

Immediately, the two sensed each other's location.

Bai Shi looked over there and the approximate location was in the northwest of the Yatan Plateau.

Without any pause, Bai Shi immediately flew over the Yatan Plateau at full speed.

A storm is about to set off on this calm land.
