A lightning bolt snaked in the purple-black sky, the clouds boiled like porridge, and a red dot suddenly appeared in the center, like a falling rock hitting water in the air to create a round ripple, and the red circle spread outward half a mile in diameter.

There was a soft 'buzz'.

"Brando, this is ......" Otares' voice was a little careful.

"I know." Brando watched as this unfolded with a blank expression.

The soldiers on the princess's side in the mountains and forests finally noticed the change above their heads, and they raised their heads a little stiffly, watching a huge phantom gradually emerge under the red circle.

It was a battleship—

The four-story gun deck and the towering stern of the ship are gradually transforming from a virtual shadow into reality. Beside it, three smaller red circles unfurled one after another, and three smaller frigates emerged in the storm.

Immediately afterward, twelve red dots flashed in the sky, and the golden-red knight held a flame-shaped sword to form a circle outside the fleet.

"It's the Sanctuary of Fire!"

"The fleet of the Flame Temple!"

The sudden appearance of the strange army finally affected the entire battlefield, and even Adegar couldn't help but raise his huge head to look at the uninvited guests who suddenly broke in the air, and then the soldiers of the Northern Coalition Army also put down their weapons and looked up.

More red dots are flickering in the storm, like red butterflies. Each flash of red light leaves behind a heavily armored knight riding on a silver pegasus.

Then an even wider red dot spread across the canopy of the sky for miles, and after the red light. In the middle of the sky, there were vast monks and soldiers—each of them was blessed with wings of flame behind him, as if they were golden angels.

There was a moment of silence on the battlefield.

"The bow statue of the Golden Flame Goddess, thirteen sails of the wind, four decks, 110 guns," Brando, who watched this scene appear in front of him, couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Ash-class battleship of the first class, USS Perran.

Knights Templar.

The Sanctuary of Fire is armed. 'The Scepter of Fire'.

……

Thirteen pages of cyan sails unfurled into a cloud in the midst of the rain—the giant ship above the air was turning slowly, and the half-naked statue of the goddess in the bow glittered in the storm—it was the bow of the goddess of golden flames.

The four warships turned around in turn, aiming one side at the storm elemental Adegar.

Adegar slept for almost a thousand years. It had never seen anything like it a thousand years ago. But it was at this moment that it keenly felt a great danger enveloping itself.

The cries of the Cruz were heard in the wind.

"The wizard is in place!"

"Open the cannon door!"

The next moment, the four battleships shook violently. One of their hulls suddenly erupted in fierce flames. "Ahh Before everyone could react, Adegar the Enraged let out a scream that shook the world.

A bright explosion burst into the night sky.

The Cruz poured all their firepower on the massive monster. Although the more advanced magic powers and disintegration crystals of this era had not yet been developed, and the old infusion cannons designed by the Hazel were far from powerful enough to pose a real threat to the storm elemental, the intense pain caused Adegar the Enraged to subconsciously raise his head.

It was that moment.

Eleven Templars raised their swords at the same time, stabbing Adegar's 'throat' with a single sword - eleven golden rays of light erupted from the blade of the flame-shaped longsword in their hands, piercing Adegar in an instant, and locking the monster to the ground like eleven golden threads.

Compared to the overwhelming firepower of the previous four warships, this is now a fatal blow for Adegar. Eleven masters of the elements of civilization, even in normal times, it does not dare to hard-connect, let alone hit the vital point.

Adegar let out a terrible wail. The lightning in his body became amazingly bright, as if he would collapse at any moment; But this monster deserves to be the number one boss in the early version of Amber Sword, and even though it was so badly injured, it was not killed immediately, but was provoked to be ferocious. With a backhand blow, he swung a huge slap and swept it into the air.

The Storm Elemental was huge, and this palm almost covered half of the battlefield. The eleven Templars did not dare to take it hard and hurriedly scattered, while the three frigates behind them were in full swing.

One of them was directly swept by Adegar, and the cyan shield had just had time to light up before it emitted a blazing white light. Then it shattered with a bang, and was swept through the air into the distant hills by Adegar with a slap.

It was only after about a few seconds that a bright ball of fire rose in that direction.

But it's precisely this time.

The thick clouds in the sky suddenly moved slightly, and the clouds seemed to converge in a vortex in one direction, and in the center of the whirlpool, a golden-red light lit up—a loud 'boom', and a fiery red pillar of light fell from the sky. It was as if a red red sword stabbed straight into the head of Adegar the Fury, piercing it in an instant and nailing it to the ground.

The storm in the center of the battlefield froze.

There seemed to be a sigh in the wind and rain. Then, in the blink of an eye, countless lightning bolts spread out of Adegar's body, tearing its body to shreds, turning into clouds and dissipating into the storm.

Then everyone on the battlefield saw the tall knight in a long cloak in the mist, drawing his sword from a cloud of lightning.

It was the deputy head of the Templar Order, Williams the Sword of Golden Flame.

The Northern Coalition suddenly let out a cheer.

It shook the ground.

……

Williams, the deputy head of the Knights Templar, calmly stared at the patch of ants on the ground, and there was no trace of superfluous expression on his face, except for golden threads of law that surrounded his long cloak, and his eyes turned golden.

He held his sword in his hand and looked down, and the rain turned into white smoke before it could reach three feet of his body, and then melted into the rain around him.

He didn't speak.

The ground soon fell silent, and after the storm elemental Adgar dissipated, only the embers left behind by the explosion remained on the ground. The small wind elementals had also scattered and fled, and no one would have thought of trying to keep them.

Williams soon saw the little girl in silver in the forest.

At that moment, Princess Griffiin also saw him. The girl stood in the rain, her face pale, and there was a hint of rain in her silver eyes, but there was a brighter light in her inner than ever, as if a raging flame was burning.

That moment. Williams had the illusion that he had seen the incomparably bright eyes he had seen again. But he shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Little princess. I will give you a chance to lead your men out and surrender, and I will spare you from death. Williams whispered. But his voice seemed to spread throughout the battlefield, so that every soldier present could hear it clearly.

"How can you do that?!" Princess Griffiin clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth: "You swore before the sacred covenant, what does that oath say?" You say you will do justice to every nation under the Temple, but all I see today is the Temple of Fire, which belongs to the Cruzians......"

"If one day the Temple of Flame betrays everyone, aren't you afraid of being betrayed by everyone?"

Brando saw that her hands were trembling slightly.

Williams didn't speak, and he didn't even bother to make excuses. He replied lightly, "Is this your reply, Your Highness the Princess?" It's a pity, no matter what you say. None of that can change the fate you have to be on the losing side today. ”

"For this is the will of the temple."

Princess Griffiin froze there as if she had been struck by lightning, her silver eyes full of grief and indignation.

Williams glanced at her and shook his head disdainfully: "Your Royal Highness, Princess, either surrender." Or let them be buried with you. ”

"You only have half a minute to think about it."

Sonic boom in the mountains.

……

Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles was carrying his long sword and suddenly stopped. Raising his head and looking not far in front of him, a golden-red door suddenly opened, and an old man in the priest's robe stepped out of it.

Then nine more doors of light opened beside him, and nine Templars stepped out of them one by one.

A circle of people directly surrounded him.

Mephistopheles was a little amused: "Just killed a chief priest, and another one came, there are really more high-ranking priests in the Flame Temple than dogs." ”

This obvious irony did not annoy Wood, but the old man smiled: "You don't need to show me your glorious deeds of killing Merrose. But you're in such a hurry, you're not afraid that little guy will be killed by Williams. ”

Mephistopheles gave him an angry look: "If I say I'm worried, will you give way?" ”

"Sorry, that's not going to happen."

"That's it."

The two suddenly stopped, looked at each other, and then smiled at the same time.

"Thank you for letting me live when I was in Cruz, but I'm not what I used to be, and it's not impossible to kill you, Wood." The Gray Sword Saint said suddenly.

"So, you're really going to do it?" Wood asked.

"That's not it, you have your ideals to realize, I have my homeland to recover, as long as you don't stand in front of me, I won't do anything to you. Besides, you also understand this, otherwise why would you bring so many people with you if you want to send me heads? ”

Mephistopheles glanced at the Templars and said as if they didn't care, "Besides, it's a bit reluctant to deal with you alone, and it's a bit of a problem to have so many dogs." ”

The Templars glared at him angrily, but none of them dared to do so, not knowing whether they were told to do so or fearful of his strength.

"So it's better to stop and look at the scenery, and then you go your way, and I'll go mine. It's not a day or two since you couldn't catch me, and I don't think the temple will trouble you because of that. Mephistopheles scoffed, "They've already lost one of the main priests, so they probably won't want to lose a second." ”

Wood shook his head and looked in the direction of the sea cliffs. The black clouds on the sea in the distance were turbulent, and in the midst of the storm, the waves formed a white line, which crashed on the reef and suddenly shattered into countless waves.

"Although I don't know what your relationship with him is, it seems that you really don't worry about that little guy."

"No, I didn't believe it. But I'll believe you here," Mephistopheles shook her head and replied with a smile, "I'm here, and his purpose has been achieved, do you understand?" ”

"Oh?" Wood was slightly stunned: "He already knew that I was behind my back?" Could it be that the fellow Tulaman was also in Ampesel, and he sued him? ”

"No, no." The Grey Sword Saint smiled happily, "He just guessed from the beginning that the Flame Sanctuary was behind it, not because of you. It's because of that guy in Murros. ”

Wood frowned and looked at the guy suspiciously. For some special reason, he once let the other party go in Cruz, but he also knew that the other party would never appreciate it. The other party laughed so happily, it must be because the Flame Temple suffered somewhere.

"Merroth killed Princess Magdal, he thought he could hide it, but there must be a mistake under the secret. He must never have dreamed that his identity would be guessed. Mephistopheles smiled and said word for word.

"What a sharp point, that young man."

Wood's face changed suddenly, with an eyebrow.

……

"The time has come, Your Highness Princess, what is your reply?"

There was silence on the battlefield, as if the sound of fighting had subsided, and only the sound of drizzling rain remained. But a moment later. Williams' voice rang out again.

Arrogant and contemptuous.

Brando saw Princess Griffiin standing in the rain in a daze, and he was about to walk over, but he didn't expect Her Royal Highness to be the first to turn around.

In the pouring rain, the silver eyes of the half-elf girl were full of determination: "Mr. Brando, I have decided to surrender to the nobles of the north. ”

Brando couldn't believe his ears. He looked at Her Royal Highness the princess in amazement. But Princess Griffiin whispered, "After I die, there is still one person in Eruin who can pick up this ideal, and I believe in that man, and I believe that he did not lie to me—"

She raised her head and looked at everyone in the forest, "If these people will survive today." One day, they will be the future spark for Eruin. ”

"Your Highness the Princess."

"Mr. Brando, I have only one request."

She looked at Brando, her eyes brightened up amazingly: "Please be sure to rescue my brother, because even if he can't be king one day, I at least hope that he can live well." This is my only wish, Mr. Brando. ”

She took out a crystal and placed it in Brando's hand: "This is the key to the anchor, and only it can provide an anchor point for the royal fleet." My father built this fleet with his own hands, he gave it to me with his own hands, and now I entrust it to you. ”

Princess Griffiin suddenly smiled slightly, and her cheeks slid down her cheeks, whether it was tears or rain: "Mr. Brando, I hope you remember that there was once a princess from Eruin who fought alongside you...... Hope that the kingdom will last forever...... I hope that one day our ideals will be realized—"

I wish your sword would always shine, Eruin.

Brando looked at Her Royal Highness the princess who was crying in front of him, and this was the second time he had seen her cry. No longer the strong image in history, but the real Eruin's eldest princess.

He gagged her with his hand.

Needless to say.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and Brando drew his long sword and stepped past the stunned princess. He had already raised his head and replied softly, "Don't say anything, Your Highness the Princess. ”

"Please be hopeful."

"Don't give up on your ideals."

"Because today, history doesn't repeat itself."

"The future of this kingdom will be changed by my own hands."

And from this moment on, the past qiē has dissipated. There is no more buche weeping, no more crimson mourning, and here the kingdom has not deviated from its glorious path, and there is still room for redemption. ”

Not far from him, the knightess Nimesis, who heard his words, raised her head almost as if she had been electrocuted. But Brando had already raised the sword of the earth in his hand and pointed it at the man in mid-air—

"Williams," Brando shouted, "the ledger after forty years!" Today I will come to you on behalf of those people of the day to ask for restitution—are you ready? ”

There was silence in the mountains and forests, and it seemed that only this one-man silhouette was left on the entire battlefield.

And in front of him was the huge fleet of the Cruz.
