Act 144 The Calamity of Isis
Fog shrouded the mountains, and after the battle, there was a strange tranquility in the forest.
Scattered among the woodlands were hundreds of centaurs who were taking a brief break after a battle, and the boys from Eruin not far away were almost all wounded, and the dryads were no better, and everyone felt a kind of exhaustion from the depths of their bones after fighting their way through the sea of thousands of wolves.
This exhaustion is like a pair of dying claws grasping your nerves and dragging you into the abyss of drowsiness. It's just that even if the upper and lower eyelids fight, no one dares not to cheer up.
Brando sat on a dead tree that had fallen to the ground~ This broken wood is no longer known to be the product of this generation, the hollow trunk grows on top of dense layers of moss, and a bunch of mushrooms grows underneath He covered his injured cheek with one hand, although the pain was unbearable, but he still gritted his teeth and let Merial perform a healing prayer on himself.
Luckily, the healing spell was still as powerful as in the game, and Brando felt the wound itch slightly, but it quickly healed and lost its pain.
However, the tiredness caused by excessive blood loss remains, and healing spells can speed up metabolism, but they cannot generate energy out of thin air.
Meria finished casting the last spell, then took a small piece of dry food from her bag and handed it over: "Eat something, Mr. Baron, it will be better." "Her voice is a little small, but it's nice.
"Ever been on the battlefield?" Brando asked.
"Participated in the actions of the Order as a clergyman." Meria replied with her head bowed.
"Clearing out bandits?"
Merial nodded.
"Have you ever seen a dead man?"
"Yes."
"No wonder" Brando secretly sighed that he had picked up a treasure, and the experienced priest-in-waiting did not have a temple position yet, "It's really rare to be placed among NPCs."
It's just that the other party doesn't seem to have a sense of belonging to his own collective, and he vaguely feels that this trainee priest is very knowledgeable, and most of the knowledgeable people have opinions, and it is much more difficult to fool than ordinary people.
Is it just that these insights are gained from books, or do you experience them yourself?
Brando asked, "Do you like that guy?" ”
He had barely finished speaking when he heard a cough from behind him, and Brando didn't have to look back to know whose voice it was. But Meria also blushed, and she lowered her head and did not answer.
Brando smiled slightly, thinking that although you didn't answer, I already have an answer. It's good to have concerns, as long as he firmly grasps this guy Karglis, he won't worry about this priest lady staying.
At the same time, he also confirmed Merial's gender.
Antitina sat next to Brando, and couldn't help but laugh, Brando's thoughts couldn't escape her thoughts, but the lord asked so implicitly, "Or can't help but be good at these things, since the lord is not good at these things, it would be good to let her come, Miss Noble couldn't help but think secretly.
"My lord, when are we leaving?" Caglis sensed the strange atmosphere, and Merial's red face made him a little uncomfortable, so he coughed and hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt.
"Go?" Brando asked with some amusement, he put down his hand, and there was a pale white scar on his left cheek, which was different from the color of the skin elsewhere: "What's the hurry?" ”
When the black wolf lord bit at him, his fangs slashed across his cheek like a dagger, leaving a long wound that ran from his forehead to his cheek, but fortunately it was blocked by his frontal bone, otherwise according to Meria, his left eye would not have been saved.
For this reason, Brando was also complained about by Antitina, but fortunately, the aristocratic girl also knew that Brando had to do it, so she gave up.
"Ahem" Calglis coughed again, "He knew what Brando was planning, "Of course it's a hurry, Lord Lord, didn't say we only had a few hours to go, bird"
Although they had only been together for less than a month, Karglis had gradually become familiar with his lord's personality, and to be honest, if not for some bad taste, and the aristocrat Brando, who inexplicably liked to baash Eruin, was still very much in line with the best kind of followers in his mind.
"That's true," Brando replied, "but there's no rush for this meeting, everyone needs to rest." He raised his eyelids and glanced at Karglis: "Someone's not weak-hearted, right?" ”
Karglis coughed heavily, and simply stopped answering.
Brando smiled, then pulled out a dark, prismatic stone from his backpack. The previous battle had been a tragic one, with four of his young men lost, the first time they had lost since entering the Black Forest.
In addition to the dead, there were also serious injuries, and it can be said that the group of people trained by Brando himself lost their combat effectiveness for the first time they went to battle, and this was still under the cover of centaurs and tree elves.
However, he was satisfied that the death and wounding of his companions did not knock down these young men, and although they were inevitably demoralized, at least no one was desperate and broke down because of this.
This shows that they are already qualified fighters.
All it takes is more training and honing to come, and Brando believes that the youngsters under his command can become good seeds. Although it is not said to be as demonic as those players in the past, it can at least be regarded as stepping into the torrent of this era.
Under his training as a player, some of these young people may be injured and die as a result, but in any case, they will be the first beneficiaries of the Great Demon Tide, a treatment that only the geniuses of history can enjoy.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but subconsciously turn his head, the wounded centaurs on the other side of the woodland were resting, and they were the ones who suffered the heaviest losses in this battle, according to Centaur Elder Walder, at least a third of them withdrew from the battle sequence.
Most of them were dragged into the wolf tide by the black wolf and torn to pieces.
Of course, both the Dryads and the Druids have suffered some losses, but not as badly as the Centaurs. The remaining force in his hands now is about four hundred centaur elder guards, and the combat power of the silver median.
Then there are over two hundred Dryad Marksmen, to be honest, as ranged units of the Silver Lower Rank. Brando was really reluctant to throw this army of tree elves into a war of attrition. He took a moment to throw these Dryads into the battle of Toniger. What effect will be produced on the field.
But alas, "most of these dryads are destined to fall in the forest tonight."
Finally, there were the dozens of young men under his command, as well as the dozen or so silver-rank knights who were still left in the Eruin Legation. However, it was unlikely that the knights, Count Outin, would have put the command in his hands, so Brando automatically ignored it.
He glanced at the nobles, Odin and Roberon were all right in the previous battle, but the noble female scholar had already died on the battlefield.
This made Brando couldn't help but sigh, he had saved the female scholar's life before, and it was a pity that the other party was Lantonilan, but he could save it once, and in the end, he couldn't save it a second time.
This made him sigh very much.
Although there were heavy casualties, the results were still brilliant. Killing a male wolf was already impossible in the eyes of almost everyone except Brando, and the last ability the male wolf displayed already indicated his rank.
Element culture.
Those who were a little more knowledgeable in the room understood what that meant, and Brando, Queen, and Akane were able to kill them with the strength of the Golden Rank, and of course the main credit for this went to Brando.
Everyone saw the final scene, and the blow that Brando's spell that guided the howl to turn confirmed his identity as a dual cultivator of spells and swords.
And in addition to the male wolf, "There are more than three black wolf lords who died under Brando's sword at the beginning, and there are countless black wolves, and the dense wolf tide with a radius of thousands of square meters has been swept twice in a row.
Brando didn't pay attention at the time, but after the fight, he was taken aback by the experience of rising.
In addition to the 35,000 points of experience for killing the Fog Howl itself, the experience provided by killing the Black Wolf and the Black Wolf Lord alone is as high as 23,250 points.
This hit earned nearly 60,000 experience, and since then, with the previous "team mode, or legion mode", the fight has earned nearly 12,000 experience, and this battle alone has earned more than 70,000 experience.
Brando converted the number into a calculation, "That is, they killed at least close to 10,000 black wolves."
The only regret is that the number of wolves is so large that the drops of those black wolf lords are almost all in vain. Well, here Brando looked at the cold stone ridge in his hand, fortunately he got this thing, and this alone is worth the ticket price.
"What is this?" Akane, who was sitting on the side and leaning on the Thunder Spear, watched Brando holding the thing, "She didn't speak, she endured and endured, but unfortunately she didn't have the good cultivation of Antitina after all, and finally couldn't help but show her little tiger teeth and asked."
Brando raised his head and smiled mysteriously, "You say this?" That's a good thing. ”
"Lord Lord, don't sell it yet" Karglis couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Let's talk about it, I also want to know what this thing is, it looks like it's quite valuable?" ”
Valuable?
This time it was Brando's turn to roll his eyes, thinking to himself, young man, you have to know that this thing is known in the past games as an artifact that can't be bought with RMB, "Countless guilds are crazy about it, you should know that it's not just worth as much as money."
But in other words, "I guess it's unlikely that the other party will understand what RMB is."
He replied, "This is the heart of Esis's calamity." ”
"Isis's heart of calamity?"
"Head wolf Isis?" Antitina Ran: "Ah, almost. However, this is not Isis's heart, but a rare magical item. Legend has it that it seals the soul of a wolf, imprisoning the power and chaos of rage. ”
"Magic and Chaos?" Karglis nodded in confusion, he looked at the long stone ridge in his hand, this thing is the origin and core of the male wolf's power, or it is the male wolf, and the person who has this stone ridge is the head wolf!
"Does it have a well?" The young man asked again.
"You'll see it right away." Brando replied that the Calamity Heart was actually a talisman, but it was used in a somewhat different way than a normal amulet.
As for how to use this thing......
He raised his hand and pressed the stone edge flat against his forehead. Then everyone saw that the stone ridge in his hand suddenly vibrated and continued to glow red, and then suddenly softened "strangely into Brando's forehead."
As the stone ridge deepened, the red light seeped into his skin, spreading like a huā pattern in all directions, and then a circle of abstract thorn-like textures formed on the forehead, and then the red light slowly faded, and the color of Minli gradually changed to gray.
The whole process lasted more than ten minutes before finally subsided.
Then Brando looked up, and the stone ridge had turned dark red, and it showed a strange beauty against the circle of textures. And the gray-white scar stretched from his forehead to his cheek, "diluting the strangeness again."
The combination of the two makes people unable to take their eyes off for a while.
"So," replied Brando, looking up, "it's done." ”
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned.
Antitina was even more stunned, she was speechless for a moment when she saw Brando's strange appearance now.
As soon as Brando's voice fell, he saw a green web of light weaving a series of materials on his retina, as if it was composed of no numbers" These green points of light were recombined into words: "Searched for the Hive Lord system, nerve connection~"
"The connection is complete."
"Immunity of the will"
", Leader of the Wolf Pack, Identity Gained."
With a flash of green light, Brando immediately felt a lot of familiar aura appear in the surrounding forest. The furthest was miles away, the scattered wolves they had thrown away.
As soon as his mind moved, he immediately sent a sense to one of them. In a moment, the powerful aura began to move rapidly in the direction they were.
Silver peak, dexterity at least 100 energy levels or more, fast movement, expected to reach this place in a few minutes at most.
It was the black wolf lord who was becoming a mature day, and Brando immediately concluded that everyone looked at him, but he didn't say a word, until Queenier, who was not far away, suddenly, got up from the bushes, looked vigilantly at the side of the forest, and immediately gestured to the others, and the black wolf caught up.
Everyone's faces changed, and they immediately turned their eyes to Brando, but the young lord had promised them that he had gotten rid of the black wolf. But Brando's expression remained the same: "Just looking in that direction."
Moment.
Along with it, there was a loud bang, and a huge black wolf lord jumped out of the bushes and landed heavily on the ground. The almost carriage-sized body made the ground jump slightly when it landed, but the beast didn't attack immediately after it landed.
Instead, he looked up and glanced at Brando suspiciously with blood-red eyes.
Akane, who was beside Brando, was almost instantly speared in her hand and tried to stop her. The Dryad leader Quinir on the side also raised his longbow and aimed at the black wolf lord. If it weren't for Brando's raising of his hand to signal them to hold their hands.
Then he raised his head and looked into the eyes of the black wolf lord, who hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly leaned over. But instead of making any aggressive moves, it stopped not far from Brando, but leaned over with its huge head and sniffed at Brando.
Then rubbed it affectionately, and almost everyone was stunned at that moment.
Kargliss was the first to react: "This" is what this thing does!? He could hardly believe his eyes if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes. But Brando reached out and touched the black wolf lord's hairy nose, and then he turned his head and smirked, "What, what do you think is wrong?" ”
"No............ No............ That's not it..., but Karglis's eyes suddenly lit up: "How much can you control, Lord Lord?" ”
Brando thought for a moment: "Now the system defaults to me as a small wolf pack, controlling the two lords, and two hundred black wolves is the limit." However, this thing still has the value of growth, so it can be called an artifact. ”
"System?" Karglis was stunned.
"Ahem, that's just a title." Brando realized that he seemed to be a little carried away with his pride, but this was not to blame, Escis's Calamity Heart was so behemous that in the early stage of the game, as long as one player had it, it was simply as powerful as a sweep. However, it's unlikely that this thing will be acquired by a single player, and most of the big guilds will have it.
Because it's so fascinating for a person to own this thing, you must know that in the game, this thing will definitely drop when the character dies.
And it was inlaid on his forehead, which was eye-catching, and he remembered that the first Heart of Esis Calamity had also come out of this wolf tide, but could it be that it was produced by Fog Howl? Brando was stunned, thinking that this was really possible? So this thing is actually a fixed drop?
He couldn't help but scratch his head, at first he thought that he had finally broken the aura of the black hand that had lasted for decades in the past game under the infection of the red-handed soft girl Flo. But now, it doesn't seem like that's the case. However, if Howl is a fixed drop list, then it means that the other males should do the same, or that the monster tide itself is set that way.
Brando couldn't help but think back to the time when the wolf tide produced a total of those good things, in addition to Isis's calamity heart, there seems to be a waking claw, the fanged divine beast talisman Brando was a little moved, but he knew very well that he didn't have the ability to reap more benefits in this wolf tide now. If he was one step late, he might have to die in the belly of the wolf, so he could only resist the prying eyes of those legendary equipment.
To be a man is to be content with Brando's comfort in his heart, after all, it is already very unexpected to get the heart of Esis's calamity. The Heart of Calamity, the Claw of Awakening, and the Heart of Calamity in the Fanged Beast God Amulet are the best ones in themselves.
And more importantly, here, he is the only player, and no player guild will come to trouble him.
Moreover, the so-called death drop is not a punitive attribute for him, right?
Brando's heart was extremely dark, Esis's Calamity Heart was something he couldn't have imagined in the past games, in fact, he had never paid attention to it, at most he knew a name.
I've made a lot of money this time
