Act 242: The Mortal Curtain V
Ogos looked up, a slender figure reflected in his gray-brown pupils. He saw a young man coming in through the main entrance of the Garden of White Roses, he had no invitation, only a long sword made of fragments, the fragments were toothed together, only a narrow gap, emitting a dark red light, and on the sword was a flaming emblem, which few people knew was called 'flame', but it was a golden fire.
In his other hand, he carried the scabbard, made of cedar wood, wrapped in black horseskin, silver buckle, and the sheath was covered with steel, and the scabbard was held in his hand, like a civilized stick.
He wore a black woolen earl's coat, the surface was gray, as if it had been weathered, and even the corners and cuffs of the coat were worn out, revealing the thread, and the coat of arms of the Cadilloso family was pinned to the neckline from the fir collar before his departure: it was a long sword, stuck in the head of a brown bear, the black pine of Carasu, and the bear of the highlands.
A black belt, a clasp of mythril, with two rings pinned to the strap a dial-like ornament, and the hem of the garment concealed breeches, which were also worn out in several places, and then boots, the long riding boots peculiar to Glen-Elle, the leather tanned by the best cobblers, waxed, primed, and inlaid with coats of arms by the most careful shoemakers, a specialty of the border of the Golan-Elsen forest.
He walked into this royal courtyard as if no one was around, and the night wind through the thousand-year-old imperial capital also passed through his coat and hair, flying with the wind, and the leaves followed his footsteps, whirling into the ≠ garden, this was the last month of midsummer, and he stepped on the wind, as if with a bleak autumn mood.
After that, everything withered.
Although the excellent bloodline of the Cadilloso family did not make Brando handsome and dashing, it at least made him a heroic young man, which is the unique mark of the knight family, plus his unique temperament. It's almost unforgettable.
Behind him were the Metisa, the Charles, Mordfes, Andreg, and the three Valkyries, while the Cruz nobles walked up the White Street, as if they had just remembered the aftermath of the Queen's majesty, and only the old Niedwin and the Grand Duke of Flower and Leaf could have no distractions.
In front of him. Hundreds of Janissaries retreated like a tidal wave, as if they had encountered some flood beast, but even if they weren't, it was even more terrifying than a flood beast - just look at the square outside to understand why.
The square was crisscrossed by a five- or six-meter-deep ravine ploughed out of stone slabs that had been hard and unscathed for centuries of magic solidification, where there was originally a statue of Emperor Glentody, and beside the statue there was originally a team of court knights, and the square was originally a tight cordon.
Now they're all gone.
"Who is he?"
"How did this man get in?"
The aristocrats looked at each other. Some were beginning to regret attending the feast, and it was evident that there was a play tonight that was beyond their imagination, perhaps never happened in this court for hundreds of years.
Some of the older aristocrats automatically contrasted Brando's appearance in their eyes, and they vaguely felt that the young man was somewhat familiar, but it was a story from decades ago, and even if they thought about it, it was hard to remember that there was once an Eruin who was in the empire.
And today, there will also be an Eruin who is in the Empire.
In the eyes of Ogos, it is exactly that.
But not quite.
The first thing he noticed was that it wasn't Brando himself. It was the other party's cold, sword-like gaze, which seemed to be tangible. Piercing him and nailing him to the ground, there was no way to resist him.
The shame in the heart of His Royal Highness the prince can be imagined.
"I've never seen a lord so angry......"
Akane looked at the tall figure that appeared at the gate in a daze, no matter how much she didn't want to see the adults appear here, but at this moment, she was only full of peace in her heart.
As soon as she let go of her hand, the azure spear fell to the ground with a clatter.
Suddenly, she silently remembered that she had indeed seen the lord with a similar attitude.
It was the first battle in Fir Collar. The lord stared at the gate of the ancient castle, and the coldness on his face was not inferior to this moment.
That time, Medisia sued her that it was for the sake of the deceased.
But she didn't understand.
Perhaps the departed are worth grieving. But it's not worth being angry about, because anger is also worthless.
Because the death of civilians is not of much value in itself, she was born in the mountains of Chablis, she has seen too many lives and deaths, plagues, accidents, wars, monsters, can be the cause of death of civilians, they will only be hastily buried, maybe some people will be sad, but no one will be angry.
Some people just disappeared, but some couldn't tolerate it, it was the most special person she had ever seen, a nobleman, a young man about her age, but her lord.
He had killed Grudin, and as the sword plunged into the baron's chest, she noticed that there was no vengeance on the lord's face, only cold contempt.
As if karma is the way it should be.
Just for some people who don't know each other.
At this moment, such contempt appeared on his face again.
"Is it because of me?" Akane's heart was pounding, and her mind was full of thoughts, "Why is Lord Lord angry for me?" ”
Maybe this simple girl will never understand this question.
Ogos dropped Akane and turned his head to look at Brando coldly, the smell of the young man made him feel provoked by Yan zhòng.
The Silver Queen stopped in front of the main entrance of the White Rose Palace, and she turned around and watched the scene coldly.
As if she wasn't the host, and Brando wasn't a guest.
The three of them looked at each other from a distance, and the scene was quiet for a while.
Little Niederwin was a little hesitant and wanted to step forward, but his father on the side grabbed him, and the wrinkles on Old Niederwin's face seemed to look deeper in the cool night breeze, and he shook his head gently:
"I am the prime minister of the emperor, and you are the courtier of His Majesty, but you don't know what kind of character our Majesty is."
Little Nedwin was full of shame, for for the first time in his memory it was his father who had said that to himself.
Old Nedwin pointed to Brando in front of him. He replied, "Let our Earl go and talk to His Majesty, and only when His Majesty is calm will he be able to listen to us." ”
"Your Majesty will be calm?"
Little Nedwin felt that his old father was a little unclear about his brain.
But Old Nedwin shook his head and didn't answer, and the Grand Duke of Flower and Leaf on the side glanced at him and smiled silently.
Ogos stared at Brando like a brown bear, and only after a while did he speak coldly:
"Who are you?"
Brando glanced at him. Then he turned his gaze to the Silver Queen.
Ogos seemed to have been pricked by a needle, his dark face became red, in his memory, he was the only one who ignored others, but he didn't expect to be ignored by a hillbilly from nowhere.
Or in front of so many people.
Henriette, who was lying under the table, saw this scene and was so excited that his eyebrows fluttered, and this guy pulled down Conrad's hand that was covering his mouth, and gasped: "Who is this guy, he has a character." I'll tell you seriously, Conrad, I like this guy, and when it's time to get to know him, I'm going to get to know him. ”
Conrad's face was full of embarrassment: "I'm afraid that Her Majesty the Queen may not think so." ”
"Her Majesty?" Henriette snorted: "Her Majesty the Queen is the Queen of the Empire, not my Majesty, I am a nobleman of the Empire, who do I make friends with." I can't care about it. ”
"If you have to say that," replied Conrad angrily, "well." Whatever you-"
But subconsciously, he also felt that this guy was indeed out of line enough, maybe a little bit refreshing, and he had to admit that he was also a little oriented towards the other party.
He was a learned young man, very different from his companions, and he frowned and thought for a moment. Suddenly patted the latter on the shoulder, "I think I know who he is?" ”
"Who's that?"
"There's a lot going on."
At this time, Ogos, who was like a brown bear, seemed to have finally figured out where Brando came from, thanks to his entourage, who trotted all the way to his side and whispered to him. The brown bear straightened up and looked at Brando with contempt.
"Phew," he spouted, "I thought it was someone, but a hillbilly." He was completely relieved, pointed at Akane and said to Brando, "She's my man, the hillbilly from Eruin, you can get out-"
Eruin.
There are always nobles who react quickly, and someone has already reacted to something, "It's the Cadilloso family." Someone let out a few whispers, and then a name came out in whispers.
It consists of only three words.
but weighed more than a thousand pounds.
Sword Saint Daurus -
Sixty years later, the grandson of the Sword Saint Daurus returned to the imperial capital.
The way people looked at Brando changed again, and Henriette muttered, "It was him......"
"You know him well?" Conrad asked curiously, he didn't know that his companion could be related to the legendary Juggernaut of Eruin.
"No, it's my grandfather," Henriette bared his teeth, "My grandfather fought a duel with the Sword Saint Darus and was knocked out of a tooth. ”
"What!"
Ogos apparently didn't hear the whispers of the two men under the table, and in fact he didn't hear the whispers of the crowd, he was a hill nobleman from Wallach, but even less than a nobleman from Eruin.
In his eyes, Brando dared to threaten him, he was already a dead man, and as long as the other party dared to take a step back, he would press forward step by step and leave his head here.
In the custom of the mountain people, there is only one way for the enemy to pay for blood.
But what he didn't expect was that Brando's response to him would be so simple and direct.
The latter turned his head, glanced at him, and spoke:
"You have a terrible memory."
Akane on the side only reacted at this time, realizing that her lord was going to make a move on Ogos, she hurriedly shouted: "My lord, he ......"
He has the strength of the side of truth......
The girl didn't say it.
For she saw Brando raise his hand, a hundred meters away from Prince Augos, who without warning seemed to crash into a dragon head-on, and the whole person flew out with a bang, crashing into a complex of buildings on the left side of the White Rose Garden, as if this brown bear was not a master on the side of truth, but an ordinary person who could not be more ordinary.
It's just that ordinary people obviously can't knock through the inner and outer walls of a building with more than a dozen floors.
All opened their mouths wide.
Some people are still worried about this grandson of Darus, obviously Prince Ogouss is not necessarily so popular, but after the previous battle, the nobles present more or less have a sense of the strength of this mountain prince, and the mountain girl beat dozens of court knights to the ground as soon as she made a move, but there was nothing she could do with Augeros.
Although the former is not as good as the Yanyi Knight, at least he has the strength of the upper rank of gold, and the strength of the latter is even more conceivable, Daurus's grandson looks no more than nineteen or twenty years old, how can he be the opponent of the humanoid brown bear.
Mentally, the aristocracy is still much more positive in identifying with humans than with brown bears.
But apparently, what happened next turned everyone upside down.
At this moment, all the nobles present had a thought in their hearts: "It is worthy of being the grandson of Daurus." "As people from the imperial capital, they obviously have a deep memory of the man of the year sixty years ago.
And for some of the older nobles, it was as if they had seen the nightmare of the imperial nobles sixty years ago.
The building continued to collapse, the sand and gravel rolled down, and there was silence in the white rose garden for a while.
The Silver Queen finally opened her mouth, only a cold sentence:
"Presumptuous, take him down."
Four witches in mid-air.
Agatrice opened the gates of the land of Bunosson, fearing that Brando would repeat the last trick and escape from under her nose, so she opened her Extreme Plains at the first time; The starry sky reflected in the lonely hill was pitch black, unfolding in the sky like flowing water, like a huge mouth of the void.
But she had barely touched the door when she heard a voice that broke her heart.
"Get out—"
Before the witch of the golden sea could react, she spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell directly from mid-air. Beside her, the witch king's face changed greatly, and he put his hand on the silver law thread, and before he could speak, he heard the old woman on the other side shout tremblingly.
"Esis, Esis is ...... in Bunosson!"
But alas, her voice is destined not to be heard by too many people.
Because more people are taking to the skies.
One, two, three, Bradley the Sword Bearer, Saint Willec, the Sword of the Lion, and the other of the two of the Palazzo San Contipe, Saint Leo the Sword of Disease.
Then came the Imperial Gate, Grand Master Richard, the Grand Master of the Knights of the Flame Clan, the Lord of the Mirror Realm, the Lightless Return Royer, and his old rival Saipan.
These are almost all old friends and faces in the previous battle at Hanlu Manor.
But then there are other names that Brando has only seen or heard of in the game.
First of all, the Captain of the Guard, Tariye, and the other three deputy commanders of the Knights of the Flame Clan, Finn the Silver-Gray Eye, Maximi the Sage, and Julian the Ascetic.
As for the other three, Brando has never seen or heard of them, and it is not surprising that they are the hidden power of the Cruz royal family.
But what made him squint slightly was the last person to take off.
Queen of the Dragon, Gwendoline.
Sixteen Extremes.
A sage.
Like the stars in the night sky, they shine for a while.
And above the stars, countless Flame Knights are rising into the sky, dotted with stars, surrounded by bright stars.
All the Imperial nobles present tilted their heads and opened their mouths wide, not knowing whether it was because of such a grand scene, or because they were surprised by the people who brought it out.
Under the stars, the Silver Queen is looking condescendingly at Brando, against the backdrop of the Empire's night sky. She pondered for a moment before she slowly spoke:
"Descendant of Darus, you have a quality that your grandfather did not have, and that is self-inflicted."
…… (To be continued......)
