Act Ninety-Seven: Peers
However, most of the guards looked at Brando with admiration and awe, after all, the former directly saved their lives.
I don't know what this adult's temper isβ
This is above the underworld, a world where the strong are respected, and at this time, even if Brando immediately attacked and killed them, they had no ability to resist at all.
As for the reasons.
Nashin glanced at the dark crystals that were piled up in the camp and glittered under the campfire, and he opened his mouth a few times to give the damn things out, but in the end he endured. That's half of his life's savings, and he didn't think it was when the monster was raging, but now that he came to his senses, it wasn't so easy to give it away.
Because of this, he had been trying to find out Brando's temperament for a long time, but it was a pity that the young man had been thinking about his own business, except for a few strange questions that he had asked them very coldly.
A gust of cold wind came from behind, and Na Xin shivered, but he didn't even dare to take an extra breath of air.
It was Mr. Liu who was the first to speak, he had a deeper understanding of Brando's strength than everyone present, but out of the dignity and pride of a swordsman, his appearance was the most humble and arrogant among everyone - except, of course, Huanghuo, who had been standing aside and watching Brando with some confusion without speaking.
Mr. Liu silently put away the bronze ancient sword, and the only remaining eye seemed to see Brando's predicament, and he spoke: "Mr. wants to go to Jiufeng?" β
Hearing his words, Brando raised his head to look at this Nine Phoenix Swordsman and asked, "This is far away from Nine Phoenix?" β
"If you want to cross the Swift Plain, it is very far, and it will take at least a month to go up the Qingjiang River from there to Yufeng City. And there is not necessarily a fleet of Jiufeng. Moreover, the situation in the Swift Plains is tense, and there is a possibility of war breaking out at any time, and going from there is likely to delay more time. β
"What do you mean?"
"If you want to go to Jiufeng, sir, you can go with us." Mr. Liu replied, stating his purpose.
"With you?" Brando looked at him. I looked at the little girl with a cold face on the side, and the two of them were dressed very differently from the Warynd area, which was a dress made of silk and satin, with long clothes and wide sleeves, and jade as decoration.
But there is a hidden overlap with some of his memories, which makes him feel a little inexplicably intimate.
"I have a few ships in Rosalin, and when they leave the port, they can go south along the Wagtail Strait, and merchant ships generally don't take this open sea route, but we are not merchants either. Prepare to return directly to Jiufeng Country. β
This made Brando's heart flutter, and he asked, "How far is this from Rosalin?" β
This time it was Na Xin who answered, and the latter hurriedly replied: "This is already the territory of Rosarin, my lord, across the Chusanze River, it is the outskirts of Rosarin." β
"The Chusangze River?" Brando's gaze was on the bright band of light a few hundred meters away in the darkness, and in the dark night, the river was flowing downstream without stopping.
"It's that river. Don't look at it here, my lord. But not far downstream, the river widens, and there are a few shoals that can be crossed with ease. β
Brando asked, "This is the outskirts of Rosalin, how can you be attacked by a large-scale crystal cluster here, I heard from you, the lord of Rosalin's control of this place does not seem to be so bad?" β
The guards couldn't help but whisper. From the young man's words, it can be heard that he has no respect for the big men of Rosarin, and don't look at them as outlaws on the dark road, but when they arrive in Rosalin's territory, they must be behaved, otherwise the lord's guard will not grow up vegetarian.
In fact, those guys have a much darker heart than they do smugglers.
But they don't know. Brando didn't realize that there was anything wrong with his words, first of all, he was not a nobleman of the Swift Plains, but the earl of Eruin, and naturally the earl of the Flame Temple, in terms of status, it seemed that he was not much worse than this lord.
Secondly, according to his previous conversations with these smugglers, he had already learned that the Swift Plain was not under the direct jurisdiction of Jiufeng, so the noble status of the lords here had not been recognized by anyone, and most of them should have been self-proclaimed.
And they have probably never been taken seriously in the eyes of the Jiufeng people, which can also be seen from Mr. Liu's speech and attitude, so in this case, what reason does he have to be polite to these so-called lords.
In terms of strength alone, Brando really couldn't find a reason why he would be afraid of a mere Lord of Rosarin, as far as he knew, the strongest guard captain under the other party had actually just stepped into the side of truth.
This strength is strong in Eruin, but it is not enough in his eyes at the moment.
"Crystal clusters?"
"Oh, that's what you call it." Brando didn't know if the crystal monsters in Eruin were called crystal clusters, but at least everyone around him was called by them.
And for him, that's the scientific name of these monsters in Amber Sword.
Nasin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied cautiously, "This...... We don't know, but the activities of the monsters have become more frequent recently, and it is said that the undead have been defeated by them in the Field of Bones, and maybe their range of activities has expanded to the vicinity......"
"But in any case, your lord won't be unaware of such a large-scale activity of the crystal cluster, can it be said that his subordinates have all shrunk to Rosalin City?"
Na Xin thought to himself that this was not easy to say, but he had not thought about this problem, after all, the attack on this night was too unusual. Hundreds of strange monsters were operating on the other side of the Chusanze River, and it was impossible for the patrol cavalry of Rosalin to be unaware of it.
However, he couldn't say anything about it, so he had to deal with it carefully, anyway, the monsters would definitely not appear again tonight, and even if they did, the young man in front of him seemed to have nothing to fear. It only takes to wait until tomorrow morning, when Rozarin's patrol cavalry will always come out to patrol, if there is no one in sight by then. Then it will be natural to draw conclusions.
Obviously, Brando also heard the meaning of the other party's words, and he didn't pursue anything, in fact, the question was just a casual question. However, due to the sensitivity of the previous life to war, he vaguely felt that the Rosalin Territory might not be as simple as shrinking the defense, and he even had a premonition that the strangers might have launched an attack on Rosarin, as for the situation in the Rosarin Territory at the moment, he couldn't guess. But it doesn't seem to have been conquered yet, otherwise there would probably be more than a few strange monsters here tonight.
But he didn't pay attention to these dusk seeds, no matter what the situation was in the Rosalin Territory, he could kill as many of these lowest-level crystal clusters as he could, the only thing he was worried about was the situation of the ships in the Rosalin Domain, and whether there was anything wrong with the few ships in the port that Mr. Liu mentioned.
However, this concern did not help the facts, he could not interfere here with what was happening or even happened dozens of miles away, and he could only wait until the next morning.
There was nothing to say all night, and the caravan's guards were busy all night. After trying to cut some wood from the nearby woods to repair the wagon, he was able to save two more caravans. As for the rest, even if they have the heart to return to heaven, it is not enough to pull the horses, and the strange monsters obviously do not only use their hands on humans, but also the horses used to pull carts and carry heavy loads in the battle last night have also suffered heavy casualties, and more than half of them have died.
Brando himself didn't sleep, and although he wasn't in a good state of mind after a few days in a coma, his heart was heavy and he couldn't close his eyes. It was as if as soon as you closed your eyes, you could see what was happening outside the elemental boundary.
Miss Tata, their sacrifices.
Roman who is controlled by the will of twilight.
And then there are the strange constructs that are suspended in the laws of Tiamat.
These bizarre scenes always appeared in front of his eyes one after another, and he couldn't settle down at all. He was also worried about the situation with Rut and White Mist. He hadn't seen the White Mist Lady until he had passed through the rift, and he didn't know if the latter had escaped from under the destruction of the elemental barrier.
As for the fire-type goblin, although he clearly remembered that he stuffed the other party into his pocket before passing through the space-time rift, he didn't find the other party's shadow after coming here, and asked Na Xin and Mr. Liu, when the other party found him. Didn't notice anything unusual in the vicinity.
He even contacted Metisa, Charr and other of his own traveling mage card creatures, hoping to learn from them about what happened to Rusta, and whether Hipamila had escaped, etc., but the strange thing is that theoretically, there should be a telepathic telepathic connection between the traveling mages in one realm, but it is out of order here.
He knows guΓ² this connection. He could only feel empty on the other side, and if Fias and Marocha couldn't sense it, he would almost think that something had happened to the Charles.
All these signs of unhappiness are piling up in his heart, how can he calm down?
And just like that, after a few hours of silence in the dark sky, a glimmer of light finally began to appear, and after Brando looked at the shadows of the woodland in the distance, the shadows of the woodland gradually became clearer, and the scene on the avenue was finally faintly visible.
He took a light breath, and was a little irritated to get up and look at the Chusangze River.
And it was at this time that he saw the phoenix fire.
The little girl didn't know when she had rearranged her makeup, and now she changed her coat, and her green hair was curled up at the back of her head, and her temples were braided into two rings and hung behind her ears; Ebony hair fell on the edge of the snow-white earlobes, skin like porcelain, plum petal-like gold plates on the forehead, red lips and white teeth, and a pair of black and white eyes looked at him clearly.
Brando couldn't help but be stunned.
Huang Huo Yingying bowed to him and said:
"Phoenix Fire hasn't thanked Mr. for saving his life."
