Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

Chapter 243 Wolf attack! Wolf attack!

I looked in disbelief at the sword that pierced my chest and abdomen. The bright red blood stained the blue pyroxene on the silver sword and dripped onto the ground.

——Fa, what happened?

Mugram pushed me away with one hand, drew his sword, and followed up with a front kick.

I just felt like I was thrown to the ground like a rag bag.

Then a blue inverted cross came down from the sky, as if the Lord God was shedding His light and waving to me.

——Go away, God, I don’t believe in Christ!

I gritted my teeth, squeezed out all my strength, and threw a pot of fire at Mugram's face. While the flames were splashing and blocking his sight, I quickly rolled to the side, then took out the holy grail bottle and drank it down.

One mouthful, two mouthfuls... The strength of the body was finally restored, and the air stuck in the throat also rushed up at once, making the person cough uncontrollably: "Hu... cough cough!"

Combat skill——Kalia’s Return, oh, no, it should just be a simple block with added magic power.

——In the game, Mugram is an expert at blocking with a shield, and he is even more skilled at this than the A-ti I control.

——And he is no less capable in real life.

I have to say that fortunately he didn't kill me with one blow, and his subsequent combat skill "Great, Kalia" was also interrupted by my fire pot, which allowed him to escape.

Mugram cleared the debris from the flames, turned around, and looked at me again.

I took a few breaths and couldn't help but smile a little, "You executed in the wrong place, Master of Counterattack."

“······Next time, I will cut off your head, Faded One.” After saying that, Mugram raised the straight sword again and strode towards me.

——In the game, there are two ways to deal with the bounce:

——The first is to jump and slash; the second is to hold the weapon with both hands and completely give up defense!

I took off the brass shield from my left hand, held it in my hand, turned quickly and retreated, while throwing the shield at Mugram.

The opponent blocked again, and my shield was deflected.

I then accelerated, rushed forward, made a big jump, raised the hound's fangs high and chopped down.

Mugram dodged to the side, and I immediately held the sword with both hands and continued to slash at him diagonally against the robe, forcing him to retreat again.

But unexpectedly, when Mugram turned around to dodge, his left hand switched the shield into a magic wand, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned four shining swords to form a circle beside him.

Soon, the target locked onto me, and four shining swords flew towards me at the same time.

——These shining swords have a certain tracking ability.

When I saw that it was about to hit me, I quickly leaned back and rolled over to avoid the formation of shining swords.

The next second, Mugram was seen rushing towards him with the Kalia Knight Sword in one hand and a magic wand projected into a sword in the other.

His double sword attack was like a violent storm, forcing me to retreat step by step.

Moreover, the blade of the magic projection was more difficult to resist than I had imagined. The moment the fangs collided with it, the blade turned into fragments and stabbed towards me like glass shards.

In the blink of an eye, Mugram would project the blade again and chop at me.

——Is this magic——Kalia Swift Sword? The magician's attack method with the highest magic consumption and damage ratio.

——By the way, how can you pretend to be the best expert in Energy City with your twin swords?

I secretly exerted strength under my feet, and then pushed hard, awakening a storm, causing Mugram to quickly stop attacking and subconsciously step back.

I seized this opportunity, stepped into the storm, and soared high into the sky.

Combat skill——Scarlet Blood Moon Slash!

There was no time to dodge, and Mugram had no choice but to raise his knight sword and magic sword and choose to block forcefully.

——But the violent combination of Lion Slash and Blood Slash is something you can easily defend against?

The lion's sharp claws instantly tore through Mugram's defenses, and blood gushed out like a waterfall pouring from the sky, sweeping the opponent away.

I took a breath and took another sip from the Holy Grail bottle to regain my strength.

"Ahem." Mugram also coughed twice and sat up from the ground. "You, actually have some skills, Faded One. How sad."

——Ah? You are so sad.

"Same here." I watched him coldly as he drank a mouthful of the Holy Grail Dew and recovered. He also held the hound's fang in both hands again and prepared himself.

——It is not difficult to see that as a knight of Kalia, Mugram is proficient in various types of magic of the royal family, and also has some understanding of the academy's pyroxene magic.

——Therefore, this guy is as mysterious as this magic academy shrouded in darkness and fog. If I let him play freely, who knows what tricks Mugram can come up with for me after entering the second stage.

——Therefore, the best choice is to take the initiative and completely master the offensive rhythm!

Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and rushed forward quickly.

Mugram obviously saw my intention, and when he stood up again, he had already put on his shield.

——Never mind, since you’re scared, I won’t be polite!

"Haaaaaah!" I roared, holding the long fang in both hands and jumped forward to chop, chopping Mugram's shield so that sparks flew out.

Although he stood firmly on his feet, he did not have the strength to fight back.

Seeing the situation, I immediately activated my New Year's Greeting Sword Technique. One-word slash! One-word slash! Another one-word slash! It was just like beating a wooden fish, hitting Mugram's tortoise shield with a clanging sound.

But just as I was about to chop at this guy's shield with a single blow, Mugram's shield suddenly became like a hand, pushing away my fangs, and then he raised the Kalia Knight Sword and chopped it down at me.

——Sure enough, your skills are still not good enough. The power of your sword is even weaker than that of the other sword. Did he find my flaw?

I hastily put away my sword, turned to his right side, and dodged, while swinging my hound's fangs in a powerful spinning blow towards Mugram.

Mugram wanted to draw his sword to block, but I seemed to be stronger than him, and with the momentum created by the twist, the sword hit him so hard that his whole body tilted and he retreated to the side.

Take advantage of the victory!

I took a breath, then swung at Mugram with all my strength, holding the blade with both hands.

But after the lesson just now, this guy seemed to become more conservative. He blocked with shield and sword, and dodged appropriately, and actually broke through all my attacks.

He even took a break from his busy schedule and used his pyroxene magic gravel fighting skills to shoot me several times with his sword.

——My strength is enough, but my speed is far from enough!

——Faster and faster!

Subconsciously, I gathered Rune's power under my feet, and increased the speed of chasing Mugram. I danced with my long fangs in my hands, turning into a flash of swords and shadows, covering Mugram.

But it seemed that the decrease in strength and accuracy made Mugram's defense even more flawless.

After he used his shield to deflect my attack once again, a blue light flashed on the knight's sword, and the magic power lengthened the blade. He slashed at my chest with a blow, forcing me to retreat.

Then, Mugram raised the blade above his head, continuously injecting rune magic power into it, and once again summoned the god-like Sword of Apocalypse.

Fighting skills - Great, Kalia.

I clenched my teeth.

——Faster! Stronger!

A burly black figure emerged in my mind. I raised my eyes and looked straight at the giant sword that seemed to support the sky.

He quickly wiped the fang with his left hand, drawing out the rune power that was blood.

At the same time, the whole person was like an arrow with a bowstring fully drawn, and suddenly shot towards Mugram.

A hurricane arose and rushed past my cheek.

The shining giant sword locked onto its target and slashed down at me.

At that moment, I seemed to hear a wolf howl in my ears. I stared at "Great, Kalia" and released the wind power accumulated in my feet with all my strength at the moment of falling, even turning myself into a gust of wind.

In the instant he came to his senses, he had already flown into the air.

And underneath, were Mugram’s surprised eyes hidden in his helmet.

The exclusive combat skill of the Royal Greatsword——Wolf Attack·Modified!

Blood gushed out and the wolf howled!

The hound's long fangs stabbed down at Mugram, and he quickly dodged to the side, but the next second, blood burst out like a bomb, and blew him away.
