Act 282 The Meeting of Fate
Laughing Reia took a step forward. She was dressed in the silver-plated armor of the Forbidden Knights, the gold trim of the silver-white armor was dyed with a hazy halo in the moonlight in the forest, and when she dismounted, the dark red knight's cloak hung down on the ground, and on the sides of the cloak were two silver tassels representing military ranks, and it seemed that she should be the leader of this group of knights. She paused, looked at the manor that was about to turn into ruins, and identified herself: "We are the knights of Her Royal Highness the Princess, do you need any help?" ”
"No, no, it's nothing." The young earl also saw the identity of these knights, and he did not want to make any trouble, so he hurriedly shook his head and replied.
These words made the knight girl frown, she was no longer the ignorant country girl she used to be. The future Valkyrie raised her head and looked at Count Yanbao and his party walking on the clouds with some suspicion, and at this moment it happened to penetrate the hole in the roof and sprinkle a piece of cold silver on the broken staircase, reflecting the figures of several people~ Freya couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and was surprised that there was such a beautiful and lovely boy in her heart, but her sword-like brows immediately wrinkled, and the two people behind Dilferi immediately caught her attention, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that the two people were very suspicious.
Brando suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly lowered his head, this girl from the countryside of Buchi had become much calmer after studying at the Knight Academy for half a year, and her suspicious gaze actually gave him the illusion of being debunked.
He secretly screamed that it was not good, and if he was called out by the other party at this time, it would be really over. Freya didn't know what they were doing, kidnapping a nobleman would kill her head, and of course, according to Charles's words, if her lord wanted to go to the gallows, the noose around his neck would probably have to be strangled more than ten times to be enough. But Brando, after all, didn't want his plans to come to naught.
"Your Excellency. You say Freya is small. Did my sister recognize us? Charles couldn't help but sweat coldly, and carefully asked with his heart.
Brando scolded the crow's beak in his heart, and at this time the Earl of Yanbao finally reacted. This beautiful young man from the Northland didn't seem to want these royal knights to stay here for longer, and Dilferi quickly found an excuse and said: "Madam, don't worry, it's just that one of my subordinates has a little trouble with a spell, and I will immediately call someone to deal with it, which makes everyone laugh." ”
As soon as these words came out, both Brando and Charles let out a long breath.
It is not surprising that the aristocracy mostly usurped one or two wizards as retainers. However, Freya always felt that this aristocratic boy was not telling the truth. She looked up at Brando and Charles again, muttering to herself, "Strange guy." "She has been made up a bunch of aristocratic knowledge by Nimersis during this time, although most of them have not been remembered, but at least they know that the nobles have more or less their own secrets, and understand that they can't stay here as annoying guys.
In fact, she had just heard the explosion and came to see if there was anything unexpected, but since the other party had indicated that she didn't need their help, she thought about it and prepared to leave.
However, it was at this time that the guards who had just been dismissed by Dilferi back to the gate were escorted back. Brando looked up, and immediately screamed bitterly, it turned out that at some point, there was another team of knights at the gate of the manor, and the armor on their bodies was similar to Freya's, but there were a few more tassels on the cloak.
A serving royal knight. These people were much more difficult to deal with than the cadets of the Knight Academy, and Brando hurriedly lowered his head again.
"It should be the direct commander of this group of non-commissioned officers, but I don't know which one the chief of the guards next to Her Royal Highness the princess is at this time, is it Deng Deng or Duss?" Brando looked down and cleared his head, thinking about it, it was impossible for the non-commissioned officer to act alone. There must have been a full-time knight patrolling with these young men: now it seemed that Freya was just a striker, and the names of the two knights quickly flashed in his mind, and if he remembered correctly, the knight captain who was by the side of Her Royal Highness the Half-Elf Princess at this time of year must have been one of the two.
Dundon and Does are not well-known NPCs in Amber Sword, but as supporters of the royal family, Brando has also taken over their missions, and if he remembers correctly, these two people's current strength is only at the peak level of silver, and they are not even the first-class figures in the royal faction.
He lowered his head and speculated, but he didn't expect that his always accurate prediction would fall short this time. The knights soon approached, and the leading knight spoke in the voice of a female xìng: "What happened red"
The voice was low and calm, and the mouth was full of unmistakable strictness. When Brando heard this sound, it was as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt falling from the sky, and his whole body froze, and he looked up like a ghost, just in time to see the female knight's calm and indifferent expression.
The voice...... Who is this woman?
At a glance, he could see the golden sè tassel knight on the side of Nimesis's cloak, but Brando could swear by his honor as a veteran player who had experienced almost all the historical changes of Eruin, from the year of prosperity to the year of the blade, there was absolutely no female xìng in the royal knights, not to mention the high-level, there were almost no female xìng above the big knights.
But the voice of the female knight who really surprised him, he would never hear it wrong, that voice was so clear even in a dream, and at that moment he almost thought that he was back more than ten years ago, when the senior sister was standing in front of all of them, leading them with her sword: he closed his eyes, as if time had gone back, and the warm face that was indifferent, calm, but when he laughed, made people feel a sense of inner peace appeared in front of him again.
He almost blurted out the familiar name, but he endured it. Born in Sifah, Nimesis inherited the ice-like skin of the Sephah, her long black hair against the white skin shining like obsidian, she was born with an amazing beauty embryo, and the name of the cold beauty was widely spread among the knights.
It's just that in Brando's opinion, although this female knight is strangely full of a poison similar to that of the senior sister, the two are not the same person after all.
He couldn't help but take a breath, his heart was uncertain, but in the end, he returned to the original question: Who is this woman? Brando knew that he would never be mistaken, unless history had changed, there would never be a female knight in a high position in the royal party, although he knew that because of his "butterfly." Sooner or later, history will change, but what caught him off guard was that he didn't expect that this kind of historical change would be reflected in this kind of detail first.
It doesn't seem to make sense at all.
He heard Freya call the knightess Nimesis, and Brando swore he had never heard such a name before, and while he couldn't know all the backgrounds of all the nobles and even nobles and ladies in Eruin, Brando, a well-known NPC, was confident that he wouldn't miss it.
Becoming a knight chief at such a young age shows that this woman will definitely not be an ordinary person, but unfortunately Brando racked his brains and couldn't think of such a person.
There were two possibilities in front of him now, the first of which was that Nimesis was nothing more than a pseudonym, and that name might have hidden a famous person he knew. But Brando, at least so far, has not connected the female knight in front of her with the famous people in her memory, large and small, and the woman seems to have appeared out of thin air.
And then there is the second possibility, that history may have really changed because of his coming, and even that this change has changed not only the history of Eruin after him, but even the history of the future. This change is completely unpredictable, which means that if this possibility is possible, it means that Brando should not be surprised to find out that Her Royal Highness the Princess is actually a cute boy that day.
Brando frowned deeply and stared at Nimesis who had suddenly arrived, but by this time the knight had already turned her head to listen to Freya finish relaying the words of the Count. She looked up, as if noticing Brando's gaze, and cast her gaze in this direction. The knightess had a pair of dark eyes, her eyelids reflected a faint layer of silver, her gaze was just opposite to Brando, and both of them were slightly stunned Brando was not sure whether the other had noticed her, because Nimesis quickly turned her head as if nothing had happened: she did not even intend to dismount, and simply greeted Dilferre on her horse, and the Yenburg family had always had no connection with the noble circles of Eruin, so it seemed that the royal party had not been in the mind of this ancient family. Nimesis's etiquette is meticulous. However, Brando saw that she had looked at Dilferre with strange eyes twice in a row, but in the end she did not say anything, and soon prepared to leave with the knights.
"What did she notice?" Brando thought as he stared in that direction.
The knightess turned her head for the first time as she reached the gates of the manor, and her distant glimpse was keenly captured by Brando. This confirmed his previous feelings, both of them seemed to feel something strange about the other at the same time, and by this time Brando had already put aside the previous nonsense, and he suddenly wondered if this woman had seen through their identities because she had obviously not listened to Dilferry's words before.
This is a difficult horn to deal with, he let out a sigh, but still thought to himself that no matter what, the other party would not be able to guess his identity. An envoy disguised as a nobleman went to a meeting to decide the future fate of this kingdom, and I am afraid that no one in this world would have thought of such a bold thing, except for him.
However, similar to Brando's guess, when Nimesis turned around under the thick curtain outside the gate of the manor, she suspected that Huò was actually just Brando's strange gaze. She is not strong in the knights, she is famous for her swordsmanship, and most people only know her as a close friend of the princess, and the princess is the first swordsman among them, but Nimesis has already reached the strength of the golden primary, and naturally feels Brando's sight.
She lowered her head, and Freya, who was beside her, immediately noticed the sleepiness in the adult's heart, and couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter, Lord Knight?" Did you notice those two suspicious guys, too? It seems that the girl has always been obsessed with Brando and Charles, especially after leaving the manor, she feels more and more familiar to those two people, but she can't think of Brando for a while.
Think about it too, how could Brando be here. Freya subconsciously came to this conclusion to herself.
"Huh?" Nimesis looked at the girl who had only recently been selected as an alternate knight, and asked puzzledly, "Another one?" ……
"Yes, two, weren't you looking over there just now, Senior Sister?" Freya asked, "I always thought they were familiar, and I wondered if they were fugitives on the wanted warrant, but unfortunately I couldn't remember them for a while." Look at how sneaky they look, I used to see them crossing the border when I was in Butch. ”
She was talking about the exiles and fugitives, and Madara was a paradise for them.
"Yes." But Nimesis only replied, "Forget it, more is better than less." ”
Freya looked at her female prefect, she obviously didn't want to talk anymore, so she sighed and kept silent.
