Chapter 373: Ornstein the Dragon Hunter and Smough the Executioner
The white fog gate represents unknown challenges.
Every adventurer is always nervous when entering a strange fog gate, worrying about the challenges that lie ahead, and Elsa is no exception.
Because she knew that the monsters in the Sen Dungeon would change according to the strength of the adventurers.
And now with Solar by her side, to what extent will the monsters she will face be strengthened?
Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps all over my body.
After passing through the foggy door, she saw an extremely spacious hall. The multi-layered structure made it look even more solemn, and the sunlight shining through the windows was dazzling.
Who will be the leader here? Could it be a huge army of giant guards as I guessed?
She still likes the Giant Guard so much.
However, when she looked around, the entire hall was empty, and it didn't look like it was filled with an entire legion, which made her feel relieved.
But what else could it be if not the Giant Guard Corps?
The brass girl said that the content of the trial had been seen on her way here, but what did she see? Giant guards, gargoyles, bat monsters, and painting messengers.
Could it be that this group of monsters were surrounding her all at once? Then there was no need to be afraid. She had absolute confidence in Solar's strength.
But at this moment, she saw Solar in front of her in a fighting stance. Where was the enemy?
Following the other person's gaze, Elsa finally found a fat yellow guy standing at the end of the opposite side.
She had thought it was a statue!
The armor on the opponent's body is even more exaggerated than that of the Onion Knight. I don't know whether it is the armor that is fat or he himself is fat. Standing there with the golden armor, he looks like a small mountain made of metal.
The hammer in his hand was also quite exaggerated. Even the slightest vibration showed his full power. Every move made people feel his anticipation for killing.
Elsa showed a look of surprise, and the enemy's identity was revealed:
[“Executioner” Smoo]!
No wonder the brass woman said she had seen it before; it turned out she meant the statue!
Smough, the character who is said to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Four Knights of the King. If he is the leader this time, he is indeed worthy of Anor Londo.
Elsa thought so, but she actually remained skeptical about whether she had the strength to defeat the opponent. Recently, she became less and less confident in her own strength.
However, this time with Solar by my side, if we fight two against one
The advantage is mine!
But it’s strange, even the appearance of the Deep Bishops had a video, but why didn’t Smo have one?
Just as this thought came to mind, another golden figure jumped down from the second floor and landed steadily next to Simo.
At this moment, the missing background music sounded. It was the sound of metal clashing like a battlefield, accompanied by the roar of thunder and lightning.
The knight who descended from the sky was wearing lion armor, and his dragon-hunting spear kept vibrating, showing his strong will to fight.
[“Dragon Hunter” Ornstein]!
Elsa already understood why there was no footage before this boss battle.
The appearance of the two knights may seem ordinary, but their identities are the biggest deterrent. They do not need a video to highlight their strength!
The appearance images of some bosses were made in order to enhance their status, and the gap between the two is obvious.
Surprisingly, there are two bosses!
Elsa held back the words "The advantage is mine", and her hand holding the Sword Skeleton Greatsword trembled nervously.
She had seen double bosses in the Senn dungeon before. The double heroic gargoyles were the most classic example. She had also seen groups of dozens of bosses like the Deep Bishops.
But a King's Four Knights and the Executioner who almost became the Fifth Knight?
Is this configuration too luxurious?
If they were separated, even if they were phantoms, she felt that she was qualified enough to be the leader. Two of them appearing at once was really too much of a model.
In fact, the two bosses here are [Phantom Ornstein] and [Phantom Smough], but their nature is completely different from [Phantom of Pope Sullivan].
These were not created by Gong Qiying himself, but monsters that appeared in the [Available Monsters] resource library. In essence, these two phantoms were created by Gwyndolin.
Among the [Available Monsters] in the Thane Dungeon, there are two types: [Dragon Hunter Ornstein] and [Phantom Ornstein]. Gong Qiying thought about it carefully. Could it be that the reason for this difference is that the Thane Dungeon has adopted the hypothesis that "Ornstein and Smough who appeared in Soul One are phantoms created by Gwyndolin"?
There has always been a lot of discussion about whether Ornstein and Smough who appeared in Dark Souls 1 are real people. Gong Qiying thinks that both of them make sense, but since Sion has made the distinction, he will choose the one with the best cost-effectiveness (the one that consumes the least mental energy).
Thus, the current boss battle was created.
Unlike the nervous Elsa, Solar had already struck the "Praise the Sun" pose and rushed forward fearlessly.
Two against two, it seems fair, but is it really so?
Forget it, now that we are here, let’s fight!
She picked up the Sword Skeleton greatsword and made the first Oath of Vengeance, then prepared to rush towards Smough. After all, the other party seemed to be a little easier to deal with than Ornstein.
However, Solar rushed straight towards Smough, which made her stop and turn to look at Ornstein.
Do I fight Ornstein?
Well, then give it a try.
There was a considerable distance between the two of them. Elsa guessed that it was impossible for the other party to rush over and hit her at once, so she should have enough time to observe.
"Bang--"
The alarm bells in her heart suddenly rang violently. Without thinking, she raised the sword skeleton sword and used it as a shield in front of her. The next moment, an unstoppable force came from the sword, and she flew backwards.
“Boom!”
After a muffled thud, half of Elsa's body was embedded in the wall, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Her eyes revealed doubt, bewilderment, shock and other emotions. She gave herself two seconds to review what had happened.
Ornstein just slid across a distance of hundreds of meters and sent her flying into the sky with a simple stab of a gun?
"Pfft, cough cough."
After falling from the wall, Elsa felt that she was very strong enough not to die on the spot.
On the other side, Solar and Smoo were fighting to a draw. No, upon closer inspection, it seemed that Solar had the advantage.
“Crack!”
The sound of thunder and lightning suddenly rang out, and Elsa realized that she had committed the biggest taboo in battle - distraction!
The power of a lightning gun was condensed on Ornstein's dragon hunting spear, and he swung it casually, and the lightning gun rushed towards Elsa rapidly.
So fast, faster than Pope Sullivan’s teleportation!
She surrendered her body to instinct and forced out her potential, and she herself didn't even know how she had dodged it.
But when she came to her senses, her lower abdomen had been pierced by the dragon hunting spear.
"Huh?" She made a surprised sound.
After Ornstein swung out the lightning gun, he immediately added a sliding sprint. This almost perfect combo made Elsa, who was seriously injured at the beginning, unable to react in time and was hit in the vitals.
“I’m too weak.”
In the last few seconds before she lost consciousness, she saw Solar knock Small to the ground and even performed a handsome execution.
Then Ornstein passed away and she didn't see the next scene.
At this moment, her role suddenly changed into one she had never experienced before: a burden.
An emotion called depression arose in her heart, and even when she was resurrected at the bonfire under the statue of Gwyn, her face was very gloomy.
Ever since she became a hero, she has been the one everyone relies on. However, now, she has become a weak person in Anor Londo who needs to rely on others.
But she was not frustrated because of this, but because she felt that she had wasted Solar's kindness and failed to hold Ornstein back, putting Solar in a situation where he was attacked from all sides.
“It’s so embarrassing.”
She curled up and buried her face deep in her knees.
Solar did not appear at the campfire, perhaps he was still fighting inside the castle?
Elsa was depressed for a while, then suddenly stood up, patted her face, and forced herself to cheer up.
"No, I have to go find Solar now!"
Although his strength is not good enough in the royal city, he still has to work hard. At least now he has to find Solar and help him more.
In terms of the speed of recovering, she is much better than Eliphis.
When she just walked to the door, a summoning mark with golden light suddenly appeared.
[Summon the Sun Warrior "Solaar"? ]
"Why?"
Elsa was stunned for a moment and chose to summon.
"Praise the sun!"
With the familiar voice and the familiar Y-shaped posture, Solar appeared in the form of a golden spirit.
"Why!?" The person who summoned him was shocked.
"Hahaha, we meet again."
Solar smiled and said, "Time and space in Lordran have changed. It seems that you and I are forced to separate. It doesn't matter. As long as you can summon me, we can still adventure together."
Elsa was stunned for a while before she remembered to ask about the result of the battle.
"Hmm." Solar nodded after pondering for a moment, and said in a serious tone: "Your Four Knights are indeed legendary figures close to King Gwyn. I am in for a tough fight."
"What was the final result?"
“I won, even though it was a bit difficult.”
Win, win! ?
How did you win?
She really wanted to see how shocking the battle would be!
Solar's voice was strong and energetic, how could he sound like someone who had just gone through a tough battle?
This was the first time Elsa had the idea of swearing.
Her lips moved, but in the end she didn't say anything because she cared about her image.
Don't get me wrong, the swear words here do not refer to swearing, but to venting emotions, such as shock.
"What's wrong? Why are you in a daze?"
"Mr. Solar"
Elsa bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, and asked:
"Can you please teach me how to practice martial arts?"
