Act 155 A big misunderstanding!
Looking at the whole Vaugand, there have been many legendary figures who are well-known to players, some of whom are famous swordsmen, such as Veronica, who is known as the goddess of war, or Daluth, the earth sword saint who opened the mountain with a sword, and even Buga, who is unknown in this era, will be a famous swordsman in the future.
There are also legendary wizards, such as Silverciker Tulaman, such as William, King of the Scrolls, and Kayla the Iron Melter.
Or generals of peerless geniuses, such as the Black Lord Instaron, Hayabusa Nikolai, the Longblade Lord Harson, and the Valkyrie Freya.
But none of these people was as revered by so many as St. Mephistopheles the Grey Sword.
There is no other reason.
As the only strong man in the Vaund world who dares to declare war on an empire alone, this courage alone is enough to break anyone's heart.
Brando remembers that it was almost thirty years ago, when the invincible Cruz completely destroyed all resistance in a small country called the Duchy of Sutherland after a series of victories, and incorporated this small border country into the empire as always.
In Cruz's millennium-long history of warfare, this seems to be a small node, and it should have been nothing to show for it.
But this time, the Eagle's empire has encountered a headache for the enemy.
In the year of the Whistling Whistle, the Grey Sword St. Mephistopheles appeared in the eyes of the Cruz. He was first seen in the Battle of the Royal Capital at Cruz, where he single-handedly attempted to assassinate the Supreme of the Empire.
Of course, he did not succeed.
However, in this battle, Mephistopheles single-handedly wiped out an entire Janissan cavalry brigade of the Cruz, as well as a border guard brigade, and two squadrons of the royal garrison.
Three viscounts, an earl, more than twenty lieutenants, and three times the number of alternate non-commissioned officers of the Imperial Non-commissioned Officer Academy died at the hands of the Grey Sword Saint.
If the casualties of three viscounts and one count were just a disgrace to the Empire, then the alternate non-commissioned officers of those two squadrons really made the Imperial Supreme at that time angry.
The alternate non-commissioned officers of the royal capital garrison are undoubtedly not the elite of the empire, and the future pillars of the talent, I didn't expect to be reimbursed for as many as two squadrons in Mephistopheles' hands this time, even an empire with a strong family background like Cruz will also be painful.
But what happened next was even more unexpected than anyone expected.
In a state of rage, the Empire sent out the most powerful capture squad it had ever seen, the captains of the four legions, the president of the Royal Alchemist Guild, and even three royal wizards from the Tower of Stars and Moon.
As for how strong this lineup is, you only need to know that Veronica, the legion leader of the Blue Sky, can only be regarded as the least qualified one in it, and you can imagine what kind of team of old monsters this is.
But it was this lineup that allowed Mephistopheles to escape with a serious injury.
This incident not only made the Cruz people lose face, it can be said to be a slap in the face of the Cruz people who have been invincible for centuries, but also the whole Vaulnd set off a blatant ***.
As the Wind Queen and the Templars tried to find Mephistopheles in an attempt to use his hatred of Cruz to get him to join their forces, the man seemed to have disappeared and was never seen again.
Legend has it that he died of his injuries, but of course, Brando knew it was just a joke, as Mephistopheles had a rather important questline on him, and the players in Amber Sword couldn't be more familiar with the pervert.
It's just that what Brando didn't expect was that this guy would appear here in advance.
The next time he appeared in history, it was almost five years later!
Therefore, the moment he saw Mephistopheles, he only had this thought in his heart: Is this Nima Lionheart Sword so attractive, even this old pervert is attracted!
Brando looked at the man in front of him dumbfounded, and he felt that if he could have stared his eyes out, he would have done it a long time ago.
At this moment, Mephistopheles was wearing a gray robe with a cloak, and the sword was still behind him, of course, the most characteristic of him was the long gray hair and gray pupils.
It can be said that there is no second human in this world with such a unique hair color and eye color.
Because Mephistopheles's hair color and pupil color are influenced by his element, the element of Gray Sword St. Mephistopheles is the Gray Song, a strange element, but you won't think so when you actually fight him.
Brando had only fought Mephistopheles once before, and that was the first step for the Warrior to complete the Black Iron Body Quest - the goal of the mission was simple - to support Mephistopheles for ten seconds.
Brando remembers that in the first mission, he filled up all the buffs that he could drink and eat, and then went up to the resurrection altar in three moves and was returned to the altar by the other party.
This is not to say that the level is suppressed, to be honest, Mephistopheles was only seventy or eighty in his heyday, but his swordsmanship is really terrifying.
The Grey Sword Saint is just a title for Mephistopheles, but in fact, many players believe that Mephistopheles is the only NPC that has practiced basic swordsmanship to the level of 25 or above in the realm of gods.
Although this rumor is not credible, it is enough to show that this guy's swordsmanship is terrifying, and even transcends the boundaries of strength.
Brando looked at Mephistopheles, his mind was racing for a while, although he didn't know the other party's personality very well, but he also knew that this guy was definitely not a good-tempered guy, just look at what he did.
Is such a person an enemy when he stands in front of them? Is it a friend? It seems difficult to say.
It's just that what makes him frown is that the historical Mephistopheles have a good opinion of the Eruins, and they don't have any entanglements with the druids, so it stands to reason that they shouldn't be enemies.
It can be said that it is not an enemy.
Brando looked at St. Mephistopheles, the gray sword, who was standing right in the middle of the path of his group, and seemed to feel that his reasoning was a little unbelievable.
However, he at least knew that in the face of such a powerful being, his judgment actually did not mean much, and it all depended on the mood of the other party. So Brando simply didn't say a word, didn't make a move, so as not to annoy the guy, he just looked up at the other party, and was silent for a few seconds.
At the same time that Brando was looking at Mephistopheles, the Juggernaut was also looking at the group, his gaze first sweeping over the few remaining Eruin nobles, and then his gaze fell on Brando.
"Cruz?"
Mephistopheles stretched out his hand, and the greatsword behind his back seemed to fly out and land on his hand. Then he asked with his sword reaching forward, the tip of which was pointed at Brando.
Brando was stunned.
He looked at Mephistopheles dumbfounded, and at that moment it was as if he had heard some sound of the sky falling, and for a moment Brando only felt a cold sweat break out on his back.
Are you kidding?
I'll go, Brando thought to himself, the Cruz? I'm also a minotaur that the masses love to see.
But if this guy is treated as a Cruz, according to the other party's habits, it won't be cut in two immediately.
Brando, of course, didn't want his death to be so inexplicable, so he was slightly stunned and then hurriedly shook his head, "No, no," he replied, "sir, I think you have recognized the wrong person, and there is a real Eruin down there." ”
"Eruin?" Mephistopheles looked at Brando and replied, "It looks a little like that, but the Eruin don't know the tactics of the Frost Legion, so you say, are you from the Frost Legion?" ”
Brando realized that he had caused this pervert by letting the centaurs use the tactics of the Frost Legion against the Winter Wolves, and at this moment he simply felt that he was more wronged than Dou E, you must know that in the past, not to mention that it was Eruin's players, even Madara's players would also have this tactic.
It's nothing more than a test of experience, and there is nothing technical in itself, as long as you find a random video on the Internet to watch, you can see it at a glance.
But there was no way to explain this, Brando could only find a way to quibble: "Sir, there are not many people who know that tactic, after all, tactics are dead, but people are alive, not only Eruin can deal with winter wolves?" ”
Brando felt that his excuse, although clumsy, had no loopholes, and the fact was that even in this world, there were many people who knew the tactics of the Frost Legion. It's no secret in the first place, like Count Outin.
Unexpectedly, Mephistopheles didn't waver at all, on the contrary, this Sword Saint Master also smiled slightly with an expression of 'everything is within my control, so don't quibble'.
Then he looked at Brando and said, "Indeed, you may be more skilled in using this tactic than the Captain of the Frost Legion, young man, you are the first person I have ever met. ”
"As far as I know," he added, "it seems that Eruin has no Winter Wolf plague except Cruz?" ”
Ha?
At that moment, Brando felt that it was like a thunderbolt on his head, and only one voice echoed in his heart: Natural stupidity kills people!
"I'm wronged!" Brando felt that he was almost crying at this moment, but he didn't expect that the tactics against the winter wolf that he had repeatedly practiced in the past game in order to gain experience had become a fatal wound at this moment.
But this seemed to be the case, and according to Mephistopheles' way of understanding, Brando soon found that he really couldn't explain it.
That is why, how to explain the fact that an Eruin can use the tactics of dealing with the Winter Wolves so skillfully?
Let's not say that this in itself is an unconscionable thing.
And more importantly, even if an Eruin wants to practice, as Mephistopheles said, he has to have somewhere to practice, doesn't he?
Brando couldn't help but rub his hands, and his face suddenly became a little strange. In fact, he had always thought that his experience was a great golden finger, but he didn't expect that one day this golden finger would finally bring him huge trouble.
Martha-sama, don't you want to do this, you're not playing with me!
The young lord looked at Mephistopheles with a strange face, and sighed in his heart: "What I said is true, Gray Sword Saint Boss, can you not do this, I can explain!" ”
