The stars shone brightly in the night sky, and Brando stared at the rooftops of the noble council hall and the business association building for several minutes, waiting for the harpy to fall for the third time, and finally gave the order, "Do it." ”
With a flash of light between Flo's fingers, the four harpies a hundred meters away from her were each pierced by a dark blue arrow, which pierced through her heart and instantly turned them into ice sculptures. The battle wizard could draw spells from the Ring of Spells, casting spells extremely quickly, but the elves were half a beat slower, and Tia's reaction was even slower, she struggled to read each byte of the spell, and with a push of her hands forward, everyone saw an invisible ripple cross the entire square, sweeping over the bodies of the harpys who were scattering and fleeing, and in an instant, they were torn apart and fell from the sky in a rain of blood.
Tia didn't expect her spell to have such a big effect, and couldn't help but stick out her tongue at Brando apologetically.
"Agas Storm Blade," Brando muttered to himself, "Is it necessary to fight the three-headed Harpy with the Seven-Ring Spell......"
At this time, the cavemen in the square were already alarmed, although they could not see, but they could hear the sound, the cavemen at the entrance of the temple panicked and grabbed the weapons at hand, and then a wave of crossbow arrows flew out of the darkness, and these poor creatures fell down in unison as if they had hit an invisible wall, and before the remaining three or two cavemen could react, they were pierced through the heart by the flying white lion guards, and fell on their backs on the stairs.
Next unfortunate was the patrol, Juta himself intercepted them, the long flaming hair of the mercenary group was like a striking flag in the night, it flew up and down with the movements of the hostess - and the crimson tongue of the fire crow - Brando was slightly stunned when he saw this sword, only to remember that this sword was given to the mercenary leader lady, the tongue of the fire crow seemed to be given life in Yuta's hands, she raised her hand and rolled the long sword into a flaming long whip, the golden red long whip swept out a distance of thirty-four meters, Rolling up four or five fleeing cavemen and reducing them to ashes, the remaining cavemen were powerless to resist, and one by one they were cut down to the ground by the White Lion Guards, and were soon slaughtered.
Cooper, who was on the side, looked at the sword in Yuta's hand, and then at the proud figure of the female mercenary leader, and couldn't help but look back at Brando with envy, thinking that the young man was really a blessing.
At this moment, there were only two razor-boars left in the square, this beast from the underworld was extremely large, almost like a cow, and they had four pairs of fangs side by side, each pair was more than half a meter long, like a bright scimitar, hence the name of the razor; Domesticated by the Sadr troglodytes, they were caged with metal masks and blindfolds, further reducing their weaknesses, making them veritable war beasts.
These creatures have a fierce temperament and are famous killers in the underground world, but their brains seem to be burned out by the anger of the moment, and their IQ has become extremely low, and the wild razor boars are ready to attack an enemy that enters their territory - sometimes even their mates, and even after they are domesticated, they are only missing the tamer in their target selection, and when all the cavemen in the square are killed, the two razor boars are shocked, Naturally, their first choice would not be to howl loudly and call out to their companions, but to immediately bury their heads in the human beings that appeared in their field of vision.
Walton and Brando stood in front of the two razor-boars, one left and one right.
Walton had been famous in Ludwig for a long time, and in addition to his swordsmanship, his strength had also reached the pinnacle of the Golden Order, but he still didn't dare to be too careless in the face of this kind of crazy thing, and when the razor boar rushed towards him, he stepped aside, and slashed at the big guy's four hooves with a Cruz sweep of his sword; The razor boar broke off all four hooves, and suddenly hit its head on the ground, and it opened its mouth to let out a terrible howl, but before the sharp air flow could rush out of its throat, it was pierced through the throat by Walton, who was catching up with him, and was sealed in the stomach, and the tragic sound of killing the pig finally became the sound of the clucking and unconscious air flow hitting the ruptured trachea, and the dirty blood also gushed out.
Walton couldn't help but nod his head in satisfaction as he looked at the razor-boar lying on his back and was dead, obviously extremely satisfied with the way he handled it, and being able to settle the battle so cleanly showed that his understanding of swordsmanship had taken a step further.
However, he was a little strange that the young Earl's side had not yet sounded, and it stands to reason that whether he won or lost, there had to be some movement, and even if he handled it so cleanly, the razor boar still made a lot of noise when it hit the ground. Of course, Walton doesn't think that Brando may be more powerful than himself, he follows Cooper's side, I haven't heard much rumors about the strength of the Earl, and I have heard about the other party's impulsiveness, irritability, arrogance and rudeness, when Brando captured the Black Sword Fortress, the Imperial side only said that there was a real ** master by the earl's side, if Brando was a sword master in his early twenties, Walton would not believe it anyway.
But when he turned around, he saw a scene that stunned him, Brando stood still, and not far away, the razor boar was lying on the ground and shaking like chaff, so frightened that he didn't dare to take half a step forward.
All the young men of the White Lion Guard, even the female mercenary leader, looked at their lord with a reverent gaze at the moment.
Walton was not ignorant and naturally understood what was going on.
The might of the Juggernaut –
There are only a few creatures in nature that are powerful enough to be coerced, such as dragons, or mythical creatures beyond the elemental boundaries that cannot be described in words. But for the people of the Black Iron, there are those who are strong enough in a certain realm, and even have mastered the supreme principles of the law, in order to produce coercion—the power of the law, the power of the sword—and the only condition that must be met to achieve this step is the side of truth.
Brando did feel the existence of the law between heaven and earth at that moment, and even he didn't know what was happening, at the same moment when he drew his sword and pointed at the razor boar, a mysterious knowledge responded from the sword of the earth, and at that moment he seemed to understand the meaning of mountains and rivers and the earth, eternal immortality, but this was just a story that happened in an instant, as if in that moment, he really stepped into the realm of the side of truth, but after a moment, he returned to the peak state of elemental civilization.
However, on the side of truth for such a moment, the coercion that naturally emanated from his body was enough to make the razor-boar who lacked intelligence frightened the six gods.
Brando had a vague premonition in his heart, he withdrew his sword, glanced at the razor boar lying on the ground, and said to the others, "Leave this thing alone, it won't be able to react for a while, and it will attack the temple quickly." ”
As he said this, he looked up and silently glanced at the dark night sky.
I don't know when the dark clouds obscured the starlight—
……
I don't know if it was under the blessing of the pottery god Kalidas or for some other reason, the battle to attack the temple was extremely smooth, and the caveman warriors stationed in the temple did not expect the changes outside, when the White Lion Guards attacked the temple, they were caught off guard and lost the initiative at the first time, and the rest of the battle was almost a one-sided slaughter, although the Bear Goblin Guards of the Tan Servant were not afraid to fight back to death, but these fourth-order creatures from the underground of Qiaogendigang were obviously better at fighting in caves rather than on the surface, Under the offensive arrows of Juta, Nimesis, and Walton, the White Lion Guards almost wiped out these Frank Guards at the cost of only one minor injury.
The battle ended faster than expected.
The Tanservant is the lord of the Shadr troglodytes - but that's all, the cavemen are the lowest level of existence in Jorgande, only slightly higher than the status of the Earth Servant - one of the most famous things in the Underworld is that he owns a minotaur as a slave, with this sixth-order creature, it has taken over a small territory on the edge of the Silent Lands, established prestige among its compatriots, raised an army, and became a lord, but his power is only slightly stronger than the expelled Tajib.
And this time, the minotaur it had been relying on for a few moves, and it was cut off by a sword after a few moves in Walton's hand, and the stench of blood sprayed it all over its body, almost scaring it out.
When Jutta pulled this guy out of the temple, the lord lost all his former majesty, but shivered like a rooster in water.
"My lord, this guy doesn't know much, but he has said everything he can say," Yuta asked, "Why don't you ask it yourself." ”
Brando glanced at this guy, but shook his head, and replied a little anxiously: "Don't waste time, what it said, you can sue me directly." ”
Juta was slightly stunned and gave Brando a strange look.
Nimesis, who came out on the side, didn't have so many concerns about the mercenary leader, and she also noticed the abnormality in Brando's tone, and asked directly, "What's the matter?" ”
Brando shook his head slightly, he vaguely felt that the sword before was a little unusual, and the feeling coming from the earth was definitely not his own perception of the law, but some kind of connection, he just happened to feel this connection. He remembered the legend of Jogandigan, who before the Great Schism, had indeed worshipped the same god as the lionmen of Toquinine, and this legend made him feel a little uneasy, as if it were vaguely connected with some doubts of the past few days, but he could not find that key point for a while.
There was another point that puzzled him, and that was that the previous sense was clearly descending from the sky, but the sky was not the traditional territory of Jorgane, which made Brando unclear for a moment what he was feeling.
Juta looked at the female knight, and then at her lord, but she didn't dare to let the latter wait too long, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid even this guy doesn't know how big this invasion is, but Lord Lord, according to some of its descriptions, I'm afraid it won't be too small." ”
This was originally expected by Brando, and Yuta's words only confirmed his guess, and Brando threw away the messy clues in his heart, and asked a little clearer: "There are a few of the Jorgane troops stationed in Graystone Town, and it should know who the main force of the Jorgane army is in this direction." ”
"There are only two Jorgantigan troops stationed in Greystone, and the other lord is called Guko, Brother Brando." Tia replied first.
Juta nodded as if testifying, indicating that the servant's words were actually translated by Tia.
"Grukou?" Brando felt as if he had heard the name there, but when he thought about it, he realized that it didn't seem to be any of the well-known lords of Jorgandegany, or even the reputation of a servant. The Taman is one of only two lords of the Shadr trocavemen, and with its minotaur slaves, it is somewhat famous in this regard. What made him feel strange was that the lord who had theoretically heard of the name would never be nameless.
Brando couldn't help but wonder if his memory was wrong, and he turned back to Nimesis for help, only to find that the female knight was also frowning, as if she was thinking the same thing as him.
"What about the other question?" He asked again.
"The lord who is marching towards Asaph now seems to be a guy named Moksha, but this guy can't say clearly, it's really useless!" Tia glanced at the servant and replied.
"Moksha!" Brando was slightly stunned: "It turned out to be it, the king of the lizardmen, it is also the lord of the underground second only to Geralt and the king of Medusa, if it is the commander of the containment force of Qiaogendigan's attack on Asaph, then the force of Qiaogendigan's invasion of the surface world this time is probably not too small, at least in the south, there will definitely be a real underground king Cunzài." ”
The Wild Elf sister smiled slightly and replied, "Brother Brando, you guessed it right, the Qiaogendigang Legion that is attacking Rokozy at this moment - the Broken Sword Mountain Fortress Group is an army from the Venom Swamp. ”
"King of Medusa." Brando reacted immediately, but he wasn't too nervous in his heart, anyway, it was the empire that had a lot of fun now, and it had nothing to do with him, even if the king of Medusa was powerful, it was impossible for him to turn north from the Rokozy Plateau to find trouble with him.
He asked a few more questions, and Tia answered them all, but as Juta said, there was very little knowledge of the Tamservant's level, and he didn't even know what the real reason for Jorgane's invasion of the surface world was, and as for why it appeared here, it was also forced to participate in the war by the more powerful lords - this is a common thing in the underground world, and Brando is not surprised.
In the end, Brando asked about the whereabouts of Count Alcons and his party, these unlucky imperial nobles were locked up in the catacombs of the temple, and at this moment Sir Cooper had already led people to rescue them, but it is conceivable that the cavemen do not have such superfluous things as aristocratic bearing, and what will happen to Count Orcons and others if they fall into his hands, it is almost conceivable that even if they are not dead, they will probably have to shed their skin.
When he spoke of this, Brando couldn't help but maliciously think that if the Earl had known about this, he might have surrendered to him on his own initiative, and would rather be a prisoner of the Eruins.
At the same time, Tia's description of what happened to these Cruz nobles also confirmed another premonition in Brando's heart.
The fact that the Sardell troglodytes paid so little attention to these Cruz captives meant that they were not going for Count Orcons at all, which means that Lord Count was simply captured by these troglodytes.
But Brando didn't have time to sigh for the hapless Earl, and he immediately looked at Nimesis and asked, "Did you find that thing?" ”
Nimesis nodded.
Then take out one thing.
It was in the palm of her hand, not even the size of a palm, a bit like an enlarged platinum coin - this kind of gold coin is widely used in the Faenzan region, because of the special casting process, so the surface is smoother and brighter than ordinary gold coins - but the metal disc in the hand of the female knight is even smoother than the average white gold coin, almost like a sparkling gem with metallic qualities, but there is no obvious crystalline structure, and when you look closely, You'll even notice a faint glow of flame in the metal disc.
Anyone could tell at a glance that this metal disc was anything extraordinary, because no single piece of metal or forging technology in the mortal world could make anything the same, and even a similar one seemed unlikely.
Yuta was attracted to the first sight of the metal disc, she looked at things as if she was fascinated, and it took a long time for her to react, and she subconsciously blurted out: "What is this, it's so beautiful!" ”
Hearing this, Brando couldn't help but smile bitterly, such a thing, in the eyes of Yuta, was just beautiful, and to anyone who had ever known it, it was the treasure of this world.
……
Vauld had two things that no mortal could reach.
The first is fate, and the second is the law.
But Martha eventually gave mortals the power to change a qiē.
The master of fate lies in the key of amber, and the words between heaven and earth are recorded on the stone tablet.
