Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

Chapter 322: Yatan Plateau, I’m back~

——How many people are there with insane fire?

If we don't count myself who might get involved with Mad Fire in the later stage, the Mad Fire users who have appeared so far include Nelius, Mad Fire Aling, and "Mad Fire Witch" Haida. In the future, there should be Xiapolili... But if I can successfully prevent "Pure Purple Blood Finger" Eleonora from meeting Yura, perhaps Xiapolili will not be able to show up.

But why on earth did Baizhi ask me this question?

Besides, he just responded to my answer with a simple "Really?" and that was all.

Is it possible that my answer is inconsistent with the information he knows?

——It’s really strange, are there other crazy people?

—Vic?

No, if it was Vic, Bai Zhi would definitely recognize him. After all, he should be considered a well-known figure among the Knights of the Round Table.

——Who could it be then?

With such doubts in mind, I took Colin and Roger out of the Round Table Hall and, through the blessing transmission, arrived at the fork of Asia Altar Avenue.

"Wow! Is this the Yatan Plateau?" Roger opened his eyes and exclaimed like a tourist. "It's just like the rumors say, there's gold everywhere... Wow! Zero, look, look, this golden tree seems to be right above my head, I can just reach out and grab it!"

When we arrived, it was almost dusk, making the entire land glow with an orange-red golden glow.

And under the golden tree that could be seen just by looking up, the outline of the royal city of Rodel also vaguely emerged.

The golden light shines, and the White City is holy.

The approaching dusk added a sense of heaviness to the solemnity, indicating the dynasty’s decline.

Even the calm teacher Colin lost a bit of his composure. He was shaking with excitement, as if he couldn't help but kowtow. "Ah, ah, King, the royal city of Rodel, the dazzling golden tree, what a warm blessing! Finally, I have returned to this land!"

This made me clap my hands and remind the two: "Okay, children, please follow the teacher's pace and don't run around. Let's go to the nearby Rune Map to light up first."

"Look how proud you are~" Roger put his arm around my shoulder with a smile, and then asked, "By the way, Zero, you didn't seem to tell us where you were going?"

"Hey, didn't I say that?"

Roger nodded firmly.

I raised my head and thought carefully about what I would do after returning to the Yatan Plateau:

The most important thing, of course, is to find the whereabouts of the Fire Madmen and then deal with them.

They have most likely broken into the royal city and gone to the sewer area to meet Three Fingers... No, if Dianhuo A Ling had the memory of the game, they should first deal with the "King of Blessing" Mungert and unlock the underground seal.

Then I have to go find Teacher Mungert first and remind him to be careful. The easiest way should be to find the teacher's phantom between the outer wall and the inner wall of Rodel, inform him of this in advance, and let him be prepared.

As for Laya... to be honest, I can't say that I'm not worried at all.

After all, there has been no news from that little girl since she left!

—She keeps saying that I'm the hero she's chosen. Now that you've brought Diaros back, can't she come out again and look for me at the Magic Academy?

However, Laya’s little brain may not have thought so much. I guess she will wait for me to visit her at home.

Forget it, forget it. After all, I have promised that even if she abandons me, I will go find her myself.

It's time to fulfill this promise.

In addition, there are Yura and Eleonora who I just thought of. Speaking of which, the Second Marika Church is nearby, so why not go and take a look first.

But if you really run into "Pure Purple Blood Finger" Eleonora, how should you deal with her?

"Don't just stand there and say nothing." Roger couldn't help but remind him.

Unintentionally, we had already walked to the map stone tablet beside the avenue.

I finally realized what was happening and told him the truth: "Sure enough, I still plan to enter the Rodel King City first, and think about the rest later."

Roger couldn't help but whistled and said with a smile: "Oh, then we are on the same path this time. Thank you for your guidance, Zero."

"Yeah." I looked at Ke Lin again, "Teacher Ke Lin can also go with us temporarily. I have heard of the whereabouts of the Master of the Golden Mask before."

"Really?!" Colin couldn't help but exclaimed, "Please take me there!"

"Who is it?!" At this moment, a low voice suddenly came from nearby.

We all turned around and saw a large dark lump of meat staring at us with his tiny eyes.

The moment he recognized our identities, the chained Son of Evil immediately raised his sword and shouted, "It's the Faded One! The Faded One appears here!"

woo-

After a while, the sound of a horn was heard in the evening breeze.

"Run!" I hurriedly gave the order and led my men into the nearby woods.

"That big dark guy is the Son of Evil Omen, right? We haven't offended him, have we?!" Roger was a little puzzled.

Colin has already helped me to explain quickly: "Those sons of evil omens who are not blessed by the Golden Law should have long horns all over their bodies, but the few who followed them...they had their horns chopped off and were wearing shackles and chains. They have already surrendered to the contemporary king, a symbol of the king."

——······Teacher, you are already panting heavily when you talk, so don’t do the exercises while running!

"Torret!" I quickly summoned the spirit horse, "Carry Teacher Colin on your back and protect him!"

Phew——

Fortunately, the sky was getting darker and the shadows of the trees obscured our tracks, leaving those sons of evil omens further and further away.

But to be honest, what surprised me was that, although there was indeed a camp of Rodel soldiers nearby, in the game, no one would come to patrol this side of the map stone tablet.

——Could it be that something really happened in the Royal City of Rodel, so the soldiers stationed in the camp had to expand the scope of their patrol?

"Woof woof woof!" Suddenly, the sound of dogs barking was heard in the dark forest.

It's really like one wave just subsides and another wave comes.

Moreover, there is only one possibility I can think of for the dog monster wandering around here!

——Bleeding dog!

The bushes rustled and dogs barked everywhere.

When I turned around, I saw the wild dog with a bright red blood clot on its head and swollen blood sacs on its body rushing towards us.

——Oh my god, there are so many of them. Are all the people in the family going out?

In the blink of an eye, nearly a dozen bloody dogs rushed towards us from all directions!

I subconsciously raised my shield to block the first wild dog's charge, then used my shield to counterattack and chopped off the opponent's dog's head with one blow.

——Fortunately, it’s not a BUG bleeding dog, the kind that can directly bite people into a bleeding state.

In that case, it's not easy to deal with~

Phew——

But just as Roger and I were dealing with the bleeding dogs popping out of the woods, someone sneaked up on Torrett and Colin!

The spirit horse was frightened and immediately spread its legs and ran deep into the woods.

"Hey, Torrett, wait! In that direction..."

Before I finished shouting, I heard Teacher Ke Lin screaming: "Wow——"

——······Why did I suddenly feel so tired as if “Brother, the master was captured by the monster”.

——By the way, Torrett, are you really that afraid of dogs? Or did you run away with others simply to follow my order to protect Colin?

——We have to make a quick decision.

"Roger, get out of the way!" I summoned the molten flame power from the Night Starfire and swung it with all my strength at the bleeding dog that pounced on me!

Combat skill - Molten Hurricane Dance!

Those weak guys were swallowed up by the molten flame storm in an instant, and fell from the sky one after another, scattered on the ground like garbage.

"Hey, old friend. You've become a lot stronger after not seeing you for a while." Roger couldn't help but whistle.

"Stop making sarcastic remarks and chase after him." I quickly found Torret's footprints and took Roger with me to chase after him.

After all, the direction that guy fled was the Second Church of Marika, which was also the place where "Pure Purple Blood Finger" Eleonora appeared!
