Act 79: The Tale of the Turbulent Stream and the Fish (1)

"How do you know?"

Brando turned his head and looked up and down again at Yura, who was kneeling on the ground covered with a thick layer of needles. He soon noticed that the girl's hair was a beautiful pure black—not Antitina's deep black with a hint of purple.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Antitina's black-purple hair and eyes are probably from the closest surviving Minr bloodline, Tirisian or Half-Demon; Although the Miner people are long gone, the bloodline born between the two races has survived, and after generations of hatred, it has gradually dissolved into the vast human race.

The hatred of yesteryear has faded into oblivion.

However, the girl named Yura does not seem to be from this bloodline, although she also has long black hair and eyes.

"I can't tell, Mr. Knight. It should be said that it was a hunch, Piconald's mercenary group has always had no connection with the Black Fire cultists, but they appeared together tonight, maybe it was just a coincidence, but I prefer to believe that this matter was a pre-planned conspiracy. ”

"Is Mr. Brando right? I think the average person should move closer to their own people when attacked, and although we are not worthy of your trust, we must be better than the obvious enemy on the other side. But all of you did not hesitate to choose to stay away, this is the way to protect yourself-"

Jura closed her eyes and listened to the fierce battle between the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group and the Black Fire Cult in the distance, but her tone was unhurried: "But thinking about it in another way, at least it means that Mr. Brando has analyzed the current situation clearly." ”

"Presumably another mercenary group has been following us, and you are aware of it."

She said in an affirmative tone: "In that case, Mr. Brando has decisively chosen the direction of the east. I believe that Mr. Brando, who can make such a decisive judgment, is not a reckless man - if a truly wise person knows what lies ahead, but still keeps going, it is brave. ”

"But, rather than that, I would like to believe that Mr. Brando is aware of the situation. I don't know what's in the east, but is the east the way out? Mr. Brando? ”

"As for why Mr. Brando is a knight." She smiled slightly, "Because I happened to hear the young lady call you just now, because I was born blind, Master Martha gave me a more sensitive sense of hearing, which is not worth boasting about—" The girl smiled modestly.

Antitina snorted softly, looking at Jura warily.

And the girl looked up, and although she couldn't see Brando's appearance, she still asked seriously, "So, if I plead seriously." Mr. Brando, you must be capable of helping our mercenary group, right? ”

Brando took a long breath.

If Antitina can be regarded as a qualified staff, the girl in front of her is simply a demon. Her analysis is simple, but her intuition is so sharp that it makes people palpitate.

He looked at Yura's long pure black hair, dark brown pupils, pale yellow skin, and every angular detail on her slender feathered eyebrows, which seemed to have the unique temperament of a certain region he was familiar with.

"I also have a question, your surname is Huang, right?" He asked.

The girl must not open her eyes, otherwise her eyes must be full of surprise. She touched her chest, stunned for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, her small action did not escape Brando's eyes.

The young man frowned slightly, as if thinking of something.

But Yura finally nodded: "Yes, my surname is Huang, and my real name is Huangyu." I could see that Mr. Brando was very erudite, and that my appearance could not deceive anyone who was truly knowledgeable. It's just that Jura is no longer willing to bring up the past, Mr. Knight, can you spare me on this issue? ”

Brando nodded, he just judged the girl's real name based on some details of the other party's appearance. After all, there is such a skin color and hair color in this world, so similar to the Han people in the past world, and there is only the country of nine phoenixes from the far east in the desert.

Legend has it that the country of the Nine Phoenixes is governed by nine clans, and there is a legendary high-level swordsmanship in the country - 'The Sword of the Red Lotus of Karma', but this story only stays in the legend, and many players who later try their luck have all found nothing.

As for Eruin and Cruz, there are many Nine Phoenix people walking, just like elves from the north. It's not uncommon in this world to travel to a remote location away from home for travel, a pilgrimage, or simply an adventure.

Brando touched his forehead, vaguely feeling that the name was somewhat familiar.

However, he shook his head at Yura's request: "I'm sorry, we can't help you. In fact, I can be honest with you - these Black Flame Cultists are not going to cause much trouble for your leader, but if Macaro 'Maned Wolf' is wise, or if I am him, I will leave here immediately. ”

"You ......" Reddy looked up and glared at him as if he was about to eat someone, "we agreed that you can't just walk away." The mercenary literally says......"

But the 'Tiger Sparrow' punched him in the stomach, and the gray-haired young man bent down in pain. Then he shook his head disdainfully and said, "Your regimental commander doesn't necessarily care about this agreement, even now, you have to admit it. ”

"So you understand?"

Jura nodded.

"Mr. Brando, what do you want?" "Money?" she asked. Or power? ”

Brando was stunned, but he immediately shook his head: "I'm interested in all of them, but I'm more reluctant to get involved in trouble than money and power." Let me give you one more hint, behind the Black Fire Mercenary Group are the Shepherds, do you know them? ”

Yura's face changed along with Reddy.

"How can we be targeted by them?" Reddüll asked incredulously.

Yura's face changed again and she lowered her head.

Antitina stabbed him in the back and whispered, "Lord Lord, the more you scare them, the more you make it clear that they will beg you for help?" Wouldn't that be the result of the opposite? ”

Brando spread his hands: "I'm embarrassed to lie to anyone. ”

Faced with the extremely suspicious gaze of the nobleman's daughter, he had to explain again: "It's not impossible to help them, but I won't get involved in it." I'm just stating that. ”

"So what to do?" Roman asked with a wink.

"On their own."

"Is this okay?" Miss Merchant's obvious disbelief.

"Of course."

"Mr. Brando, what are we going to do?" Jura heard the conversation between the three of them, and she didn't understand that Brando was deliberately reminding them, and she hesitated for a moment, as if to consider whether she could trust the other person. But Brando knew that the bomb of the 'Shepherd' was anything but extraordinary - compared to the subversive actions of the One Society, which was a bloody first holy war on its own, the story of the Shepherd was probably a terrible shadow for most people living in this era.

Of course, this is off-topic, Brando has no time or inclination to explain to these two rookies how terrible the shepherds are, anyway, their generation grew up listening to bedside stories about the First Holy War, Yura may be slightly better, and the white-haired young man Reddy would definitely not have a good impression of such a name.

He glanced back, and sure enough, he saw that the young man seemed to be in a crash, and he looked overwhelmed.

"Didn't I say that," replied Brando, "go and tell your commander, and immediately retreat and leave this place." As things stand, the shepherds are probably eyeing you, but they have a habit of being vigilant - if they sense that you may have discovered their intentions, they will probably shrink back and rearrange their plans. ”

"In this way, you gain valuable time. As for what to do after that, I think your regimental commander will be measured himself. ”

Brando's analysis is not so much a matter of truth, but more so of a script. Although the strategy in his memory was deleted and reduced in detail, the general direction was clearly described, and it would not be wrong for the shepherd to target the 'Gray Wolf' mercenary group, as for why, Brando naturally would not know.

But not knowing doesn't mean he can't help it, he has been dealing with the shepherds for as long as he has with the bones of Madara. To deal with these guys, he also has the means.

Yura and Reddy 'look' at each other.

"How do we know if what you're saying is true?" Reddy frowned and muttered quietly.

"I didn't force you to believe it."

"It's irresponsible for you to say that......" the white-haired young man snorted.

"We have no obligation to be responsible, have you figured out the current situation, it is the adults who are kind enough to help you. Of course, you can choose not to accept it, if you have the backbone. Antitina had long looked at this guy without looking at it, and at this time, the noble daughter finally couldn't help it and said sarcastically.

After speaking, she suddenly froze. I couldn't help but look apologetically at Yura, who was kneeling on the ground: "I'm sorry, I mean ......"

"Don't mind." Yura shook her head, she kept her head down and didn't know what she was thinking, but just asked, "So Mr. Brando still has to go his own way and leave this place of right and wrong, right?" ”

Brando nodded.

"Even if you keep it, you can't?"

Brando nodded again. He has his own reasons, he has now got into trouble with the Oneness of All Things, and then he has a shepherd, which is probably not even a safe life even if he dies. But on the other hand, he knows that Buga and Makaro will not die in this plot, so although he understands that he doesn't have the strength to subdue the other party now, he also has to express his good intentions.

Just take 10,000 steps back and say, in such a situation, even if he chooses to leave, there is nothing to be sorry for the gray wolf mercenary group. The agreement between the two was as fragile as it seemed, but as soon as he left, he wanted to pick up this line again in the future, but there was a little trouble.

Whether it's for the sake of the two fierce men or the future 'Courage' questline, he doesn't have to have a good relationship with each other beforehand.

It's just that this benefit is not worth the risk, as a veteran player, Brando has obviously already weighed it in his heart.

"Mr. Brando will let us go?" Jura asked again.

"I had no intention of arresting you, but I was actually saving you before, Miss Yura, you should understand that." Brando replied.

Jura nodded: "But, aren't you afraid that after you let us go, we will expose you?" ”

Brando smiled and confidently replied, "You can't catch up with us." ”

He wasn't kidding, the guide marked at least four or more shortcuts and trails in the area, though the map was sketchy. But it's not hard for him as a veteran player.

Reddy glanced at him, but didn't answer. It's just obvious from his look that this unruly white-haired young man obviously didn't believe his words at all, and thought in his heart that he was just bragging.

Although he was taken aback by Brando's words before, but then he remembered what this guy had done before, and he was clearly a layman when he went east. Thinking like this seemed to make him feel more at ease, and then he thought that he must persuade Yura for a while, and he must not let the other party be deceived by this guy.
