Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 94 Stonewell (First Order)

Inside the main gate of Stonewell, there were originally many large crossbow platforms set up.

However, these powerful crossbows have now been destroyed in various ways and are lying on the ground in pieces.

Obviously, these devices have lost their defensive function.

Therefore, the main gate of Stonewell is now guarded only by exiled soldiers.

At this moment, the exiled soldiers were treating the wounds on the ground.

There was a huge noise of fighting outside the gate just now. They have been staring at the direction of the gate, ready to shoot at any time.

But then a group of Faded Ones suddenly appeared from behind and attacked.

They were caught off guard and suffered many casualties.

And what's worse is that the Faded Ones have no intention of fighting with them.

When the exile soldiers drew their swords and prepared to fight, the Faded Ones refused to fight with them at all.

The group of Faded Ones just kept looking for opportunities to destroy the defensive equipment here.

After all the equipment was destroyed, the faded ones ran away without looking back.

Despite their best efforts, they only left behind three or four bodies of the Faded.

Just now, people from further behind also came over and told us all the news they knew.

That group of Faded Ones ran out of the city, not only destroying the city’s defense facilities, but also setting fires everywhere.

The inner castle where people live is now in chaos.

The powerful Lost Home Knights have been mobilized to hunt down the Faded Ones roaming around the city.

The order these soldiers received was to stay where they were and continue to guard the gate.

But they were not too nervous about external enemies.

So far, no one has ever broken through the defense of the evil demon, never.

Just as they were thinking this, the gate of Stonewell slowly rose up.

Several figures walked into the city.

The exiled soldiers were stunned and then picked up their weapons.

What happened? Someone outside defeated the evil omen demon?!

Also, why was the door open? I didn’t see anyone entering the control room!

"Quick! Be on guard! Blow the horn!"

A tall soldier was in command.

The soldiers defending the city here have almost lost their minds, and only a few who remain conscious act as command nodes.

After all, defending a city does not require any mental ability, and physical instinct is enough for them to aim at the enemy and shoot.

Moreover, the exile soldiers were not like the Greg soldiers, as there were also newly trained soldiers joining them.

These exiled soldiers really survived the Storm King era.

It is for this reason that when the eagle's cry was heard, the instincts deeply engraved in their bodies were activated.

The exiled soldiers collectively put down their weapons and knelt on one knee in the direction of Bai Shi.

The few soldiers who still had consciousness were stunned for a moment, and then they were surprised and moved.

"Master Gu Wang, it's Master Gu Wang!"

The soldiers also laid down their weapons and knelt down together.

Since their defeat, they have been exiled and are not even allowed to reveal their faces.

They were sentenced to exile to their former hometown.

Even though I still stay in Stoneville, my hometown is no longer my hometown.

For Stonewell had long lost its monarch.

Even the storm is waning, tainted by the crime of grafting.

Under the crimson hood and visor, the dry eyeballs were moistened by tears for the first time in a long time.

The ancient king came out on his own and proposed to mobilize soldiers to help Bai Shi capture Stonewell. It was time for the soldiers to go home.

But Bai Shi rejected Gu Wang's proposal and just asked Gu Wang to order the soldiers not to attack.

After all, these soldiers are now Greg's men.

It’s not that they are worried that they will turn against us, but there is no point in letting these soldiers follow us, if the Lost Knights can still be brought along.

Just wait until Greg is killed, and then take over the soldiers legitimately.

As Bai Shi officially stepped into Stonewell, the storm surrounding the castle started to surge violently again.

A faint breeze floated towards Bai Shi and gently surrounded him.

A layer of wind armor was added to the Lost Home Knight's armor, making the weight much lighter.

Without using magic power, a faint wind blade attached to the sword.

Not only Bai Shi, but also the people around him were the same.

Bai Shi was greatly surprised, and asked the ancient king in his mind what was going on.

There was a hint of pride in the ancient king's voice:
'Do you think the storm outside Stonevale is just for show?'

'This is the inspiration we drew from the super-large magic field covering the entire territory of Rhea Lukalia Academy - the Magic Realm.'

"We have created a unique storm that surrounds the entire city to protect it from siege missiles and to strengthen the soldiers' defense and attack."

Then the ancient king felt a little emotional.

'This storm should have never stopped, just like the storm in the Houwang Chapel, but it has been unattended for so long that it is almost stopped.'

'But fortunately, I'm back.'

It turned out to be the case.

Bai Shi didn't ask any more questions. He thought there would be time to talk about it after he officially took over Stonewell.

Bai Shi led his men past these exiled soldiers.

He passed through the originally tight defense line unimpeded.

Enxia walked out of the small room and silently wrote down everything that happened here.

It seems that Bai Shi has been colluding with Stonewell's soldiers for a long time, and this matter must be reported.

Sir Baizhi once instructed Enxia to look for a few people in Stonewell.

Among them is a descendant of the Storm King who is suspected to be wandering away.

'Could it be him?'

Eunha performed a prayer, completely eliminating her own voice.

It's just a guess, he has more important tasks.
-
Walking along the avenue, Bai Shi and others quickly passed through the outer fortress used for Stonewell's defense.

Along the way, all the exiled soldiers they met put down their weapons and knelt on one knee to salute Bai Shi.

After entering the inner castle where everyone lived, they were stunned by the scene before them.

In Stonewell, there were several places where fires were burning as far as the eye could see.

In the distance, shouts of battle continued to be heard.

The livestock in the city kept running around everywhere, and the insane residents followed them running blindly.

The Grek soldiers are constantly guiding the residents who are still sane to take refuge.

He didn't even notice Bai Shi and others who had just entered from the outer fort.

The city gate is guarded by evil demons.

Even if the evil omen demons were defeated, there were still weapons and exiled soldiers to defend the city.

In their eyes, it was impossible for enemies to enter the city gate, and they just needed to quickly suppress the chaos in the city.

Although they didn't like the group of exile soldiers in the outer castle, they recognized their strength.

But who could have imagined that the intruder this time was actually the former master of the exiled soldiers.

Even though their sanity was wiped out and they were left to live like zombies, they never forgot the ancient glory.
