"Charles."

"Here we are."

"Hipamela."

"I'm here, my lord."

"Lady Nimesis."

The female knight hid behind a dracaena tree and nodded to Brando from afar.

The afternoon sun filled the valley, but the valley was silent, and when you looked down the dense branches, the first thing that caught your eye was a slender and beautiful back, with black and shiny scales arranged in close order, and then a pair of huge bat wings and a curled neck, at the top of which was a skeletal head, which was a dragon. She lay quietly in the valley, her massive body filling almost the entire valley, and some small creatures were busy around her.

Above the light curtain of Charr's voyeurism, goblins, goblins, and kobolds were revealed, and the dragon seemed to be resting, its rubber-like eyelids drooping and motionless, except for the occasional wagging of its long tail.

The Earl of Orcons looked with some trepidation at the graceful and gigantic creature, which was a little smaller than the one they had seen last night, the black dragon that had left alone, and at his signal, Sir Cooper, beside him, asked, "What is the matter, Mr. Commander?" ”

Mr. Commander--Since last night's battle, this title has become the official name of Brando among the surviving Cruz nobles, and Brando understands that this subconsciously represents a rise in his status in the minds of these people, but it is difficult to say how useful this rise will be other than for the moment.

He also glanced at the valley, and then shook his head slightly, the dragon happened to cut off their way, it was really unfortunate: "It is lying here basking in the sun, which means that it has not found us, maybe it is resting." Maybe we're waiting for Malthus, we're waiting until evening, and if it's not moving, we'll have to find a way to make a detour. ”

He turned back to Jutta and said, "Watch out for its minions, lest the goblins and kobolds find us and gather the men. Hide in a valley, set up a cordon, don't be afraid to kill, the dragon is unlikely to remember these lowly minions, as long as there is not a single one left, it will not be suspicious. ”

Juta carefully jotted down every word, and the hot figure disappeared into the dense jungle in an instant.

Cooper couldn't help but glance in that direction with some greed.

A squirrel crawled along Brando's shoulder all the way to the ground, and then it turned its head, raised its little head and stared at the latter with dark eyes—it was the white mist. She is Roman's messenger, and the two will naturally have a sense within a certain distance, and as the caretaker personally chosen by the witch queen, as long as she and Roman are in a realm, she can find out Roman's location, in fact, she has passed the message between Roman and Brando two or three times, but the latter was stopped on the other side of the valley by this dragon named Modesti, and she will not be able to come for a while.

Roman asked her to pass the news first. Including the dwarf's confession and Chiara's speculation, so Brando understood. Below the valley is actually the camp of the Lizard Lady Sagoth.

"White Mist, you let Roman and the others stay over there, and we will meet after evening, let them be careful, don't run around, don't cause trouble."

"Hmm." White Mist is silent when confronted by anyone. It seems that only in front of Brando or Roman can he have the patience to answer the word 'um'.

His Royal Highness the Little Prince, who was squatting beside Brando, was itching to touch the squirrel's furry head with his fingers, but was bitten on the finger by Lady White Mist mercilessly, so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand to cover his finger.

"This is the demon?" Haruzer looked at the grass where the white mist had disappeared and asked curiously.

"Demons come in a variety of forms. They don't need to be animate, so they don't have to be squirrels, and the most famous witch in history, Beatrice, uses a butterfly made of pure gold as a magician. Brando replied, touching the latter's head, and replied with some pampering, "You will have a demon maker, and although not every wizard has one, I will definitely find you the best one." ”

"Thank you, Teacher," Haruzer's eyes widened, "But Teacher, can I ask for a squirrel as a demon?" ”

"Why do you like squirrels so much?"

"It's—they look cute, don't they?" The little prince replied with a red face.

Brando raised his forehead, and was almost defeated by His Royal Highness the Prince, thinking to himself, do you dare to have some normal hobbies, such as a mighty ghost cheetah or something, or a cool colorful salamander that can make the owner invisible together, or use a dragon as his own demon like Xuetumen, isn't this what boys should yearn for?

He patted Haruzer on the shoulder: "I'm afraid not. ”

"Oh-" Haruzer looked disappointed.

Brando smiled.

As a teacher, there is nothing more proud than meeting a good student, but a student like Haruzer who has an unimaginable talent in ancient magic, is noble but not proud at all, and is a student who obeys his teacher's words, even among good students, is rare.

Haruzer's talent for black magic can indeed be described as terrifying.

Ancient magic, Vawnd's earliest magic and witchcraft, rune spells and speech spells have the same origin, that is, the witches claimed, the magic power in words and language, these magic actually come from the dark obscurantism, the law of the exploration of the unknown, they themselves are part of the dark magic, and even today, witches still use such power.

Ancient magic is very different from today's magic system, and the spells of ancient spells are mostly lengthy and sluggish. The operation is complex and strict, and the requirements for the operation environment are extremely high. Ancient magic is mostly born from array spells and rune spells, as well as dragon unique string spells, and witchcraft, the most important part of casting ancient magic is to display runes and formations, which in today's magic system only formation spells will be used, and contemporary array spells actually have a simplified method, that is, the use of prior formation to draw a circle to shorten the time to cast spells, but this method does not work in the ancient magic system, ancient magic requires the caster to be able to form a formation instantly and display the correct runes at the same time.

This requires a terrifying amount of talent from wizards, requiring extraordinary magical sensibilities—the bloodline attributes, and terrifying elemental sensibilities—to contain the countless runes beneath the four elemental laws. There's also the near-infinite containment of spirits - i.e., pools of mana, otherwise you wouldn't be able to activate those astronomical spells.

Long after the Silver Age, there were very few people who could master ancient magic, but this qiē was easy for Haruzer, and Brando was very suspicious of the little prince's talent as the Twins, or the Blue Scourge or the like. He had never seen Haruzer overworked from casting, which meant that he could practice spells in the morning and into the evening, without even the help of the mana pool of the Wizard's Tower, and the next day he would be just as energetic.

Similarly, generally speaking, an apprentice can master runes in about seven to nine times, depending on the talent, players learn elemental spells or rune spells are mostly fixed ten, which is already extremely talented in the eyes of NPCs, and Roman mastered fifteen runes during his apprenticeship when he first learned witchcraft. It has already made Brando fiercely jealous.

As for the little prince, he has mastered fourteen runes so far, and the reason why he is one less than Roman is because in the past three months, Brando's cooperation with the wind has only been enough to teach him so much, that is to say, how much they have taught, the little prince has mastered, and Haruzer can only perform some small tricks now, and he is not even an apprentice, he can only say that he is just a beginner.

Who is the protagonist of this? Brando couldn't help but have doubts about his life for a while, suspecting that he might have traveled into this world to open the door to the future of the little prince.

And in all kinds of stories and legends. Most people of his stature don't end well, and if the story is evil, he'll be stabbed through the heart by the little prince in the future, and then the latter will come up with some really cool lines - like, 'Teacher, I don't need you anymore.'" Something like that. If the story had been a knight's, he would most likely have died in front of Haruze because of something. Then the latter finally woke up and embarked on the road of the strong.

Brando glanced at the 'delicate' little prince and thought that it was probably the second development.

However, it is impossible for him to give up teaching Haruzer now, because it is absolutely impossible for the average player to have such a talent as Haruzer. The player's origin is a hero attribute, and he is slightly weaker than the Apocalypse. And Haruzer is almost certainly the Chosen One, his personality is his biggest flaw, this flaw can be said to be very small among the Chosen One that Brando has seen, and what is even more terrifying is that he may also have a destiny talent and an extremely outstanding bloodline talent.

This delicate little prince is simply the legendary face emperor, but Haruzer obeyed him again, that feeling is like leveling up with a trumpet with a plug-in, Brando knows the future direction, understands what kind of professional match is the strongest, and with Haruzer's talent, he can simply imagine what kind of monster he is building, and that feeling is absolutely impossible for him to refuse.

The future of a wizard often depends on his development direction, some are limited to talent, some are limited to character, but more are limited to insight, there are many outstanding geniuses in history, because the mentor he follows is nothing more than a charlatan, so he is buried, and even if he is a court mage, his knowledge is often limited by what he has learned in his life, not everyone has a complete and complex inheritance system as a craftsman wizard in Buga.

It is impossible for the player to have the talent of the legendary characters in the aborigines, but the aborigines rarely have the ability of the player to plan the profession so closely or even down to each level, but Brando has, although there are some things he may not be able to find for a while, but he knows what is the best, and he will definitely not replace it with something for the little prince temporarily, once some things are missed when laying the foundation, it is likely to become a regret for the rest of his life.

Brando was eager to see how far his student could reach in the future when the two were combined, as far as he knew, several body-level wizards among the players back then were not as talented as Haruzer as perverted.

Of course, Haruzer and even his sister did not know what path he, the teacher, had prepared for him, and for him the trouble now was how to become a worthy king, and the throne was an annoying burden to him, far less interesting than going on a mission with his teacher, although the journey was full of dangers and fears. But it's exciting.

After answering Haruzer's question, Brando glanced at the valley again, as if to check the terrain or the distribution of the lizardmen's camp, which seemed to him to be a natural habit, a subconscious behavior. After noting the nearby terrain, he beckoned to the others. Signal everyone to retreat into the dense mountain forest.

After the group quietly retreated into the bushes, Charles put away his peeping technique, and Brando asked the others, "How's it going?" ”

"I smell conspiracy, my lord." Charles replied.

"This is nonsense," Brando rebuked angrily, "Two of the three-headed dragons, plus Queen Medusa, have already appeared in the surface world, and Jogan Digang is so aggressive, he will not come out to make soy sauce." ”

"What is soy sauce?" Sir Cooper was stunned.

"Soy sauce is a kind of tea, you know afternoon tea. What the lord means is that these stinky guys are not here to invite you to tea. Charles kindly explained, but Nimesis couldn't help but look at Brando very strangely after hearing this explanation.

The latter's face did not change, and continued: "Lady Sagoth is the henchman of the Lizard King, and most of the underground lords are not on good terms with each other, and Modesti's daring to swagger here at least shows that the relationship between them is probably not as simple as a joint invasion of the surface, but a closer alliance. I suspect that Geralt, the king of the Minotaurs, and the Queen of Dragons have also reached the surface. Modesti and Malthus are here, and Gwendoline, the queen of dragons, naturally won't act alone. So since four of the five Underground Kings had already been dispatched, how could the remaining Minotaur King, Gerat, be left alone in Jogandigang? ”

"Jogandigan has come out of the nest," said Brando, his voice like a ghost, a cold gust of wind passing through the woodland in the afternoon. Everybody shuddered: "This sentence is now not just an adjective, but a statement, and it is very likely to fit the facts as we know them now." The five dungeon kings are united, and with characters like the Lizard King and the Blind King, there is a good chance that their voices will reach every corner of the dark underground. ”

The forest was quiet for a while, and you could hear the pins dropping.

"What do you mean by that?" Count Orcons finally asked.

"That's what it means. You may have been fortunate enough to witness the birth of the only great unification of the underground world of Qiaogan since thousands of years ago, and perhaps even in history; Now that they have collectively appeared on the surface of the world, they are about to become a new witness to this holy war, they are not just a sudden force, but a new chess player, imagine when the entire army of Jorgantigan pours into the world on the ground-"

"That can't ......," Cooper gasped.

"It's really unlikely from common sense, but if the five dungeon kings appear on the surface, then they will never leave any other lords in the underworld to threaten their rule, these dungeon lords, all of them are scheming, and their sensitivity to power and scheming is not inferior to that of all of you present." Brando replied.

The Count of Orcons chose to remain silent.

"But what is their reason for doing that?" Cooper asked, "They've been in the underworld for thousands of years. ”

"I don't know," Brando shook his head, "but someone in the empire probably knows." ”

"You mean the guy who shot at little Nedwin's daughter?" Count Orcons asked.

Brando nodded.

For a while, no one chose the interface, according to the statement transmitted back from Roman's side, those who can do this, looking at the entire empire, are only three people, the supreme of the Fire Temple, the head of the Cecil family or the head of the Rout family, or the head of the Kirk family, or half of the Grand Duke Kirk, among these people, except for the supreme person of the Fire Temple, everyone else is possible, but these characters, who dares to say that they have betrayed the empire, who can make this judgment hastily.

I'm afraid that even Her Majesty the Queen will have to think twice before encountering this problem.

"Martha bless the Empire." Cooper couldn't help but mumble under his breath.

"How's Miss Delphine doing?" Brando suddenly confirmed to Hipamela on the side.

The priest girl slowly shook her head: "The state is very bad, her wound is suppurated, her lungs are infected with complications, she is burning badly, and all organs are beginning to fail. ”

What exactly do the people of Jaugendigan want from Delphien?

Brando's heart couldn't help but feel a little strange for a while, the Cruz people now find out the traitor every second, then the sooner they can turn the tide on the battlefield, but this cold dagger is hidden so deep that the fate of the entire empire is actually maintained by a dying and paranoid woman, which is really hard not to wonder if this is the punishment of the Cruz people's arrogance, just like the Miner people back then.
