Act 119 Eternity XX
After listening to Shiduo's words, Brando's right hand pressed on the slightly smooth and cold hilt of Harangea, and silently pulled out the sword of the earth that had been withdrawn from the bast scabbard before, and the black and heavy blade came out of its sheath, faintly revealing a thick aura like mountains and rivers.
He raised his head to take in the entire underworld crisscrossed beneath the glacier, and around him, Veronica, Mephistopheles, and the little she-dragon all did the same.
The ice cave was shrouded in mist, and for a moment only the sound of weapons coming out of their sheaths remained.
The Miners had apparently arrived after the twilight years, where the people of the Ancients had died, and it was self-evident what would kill them.
The loss of magical equipment and crystals on the remains of the Miner is also a testament to this.
"Shiduo, were you sure that thing was dormant before you resurrected it?" Brando didn't look back, only mentioned, the flat voice was not high-pitched, it melted into the ice, was absorbed, and disappeared without a trace.
Shiduo nodded behind him.
The emperor's eldest son, Lenaret, drew his sword in his right hand - the emblem of the golden eagle on the calyx reflected the light of the torch, shining brightly, and there was not much superfluous god on his somewhat dark face, and his brows were lowered, as if to explain a matter of course: "That means there may be other such monsters under this glacier—"
Brando looked back: "Star? ”
"Don't look at me, I've never encountered these things before...... "Star's chubby face furrowed, "I've only walked this path once, and I took on the form of a dragon." Walk under the ice, driven by curiosity alone. I've seen these corpses, they're almost all under the glacier, but I didn't encounter anything like that before—"
"Lord Earl, I think there's a problem here." Shiduo suddenly interjected, she had been thinking about something with her head down, and only now did she raise her head to look at Brando and Veronica.
Brando looked at her as well. "Say." He replied that he had the same doubt in his mind: for whatever reason, the Minr must have had a fierce battle with those monsters here. But the end result is that the answer is not necessarily correct.
There is also a key question. He looked at the young girl from the Academy of St. Ebozond, who represented the highest academic level of the Cruz Empire, and wanted to draw that answer from her mouth, this young scholar, although somewhat unworldly. But in her field of expertise, at least in terms of her previous appearance, it is convincing, and her wisdom does not need to be repeated too much by others.
"I disagree with Your Highness, if there are other such monsters here, then I wonder why they don't resurrect their own kind, and wait until they have a fake hand on Enlek? I'd examined the corpses beforehand, and the magic on almost all of the magic-related items on the Miner corpses had been drained clean. However, there are still many frost giants whose armor and weapons have not lost their magic power, and if they are still alive, why not use the magic of these magical equipment to resurrect their own kind? ”
Shiduo faced everyone's gaze, but she was not in a hurry, and her blue eyes flashed with a spark called reason. Carefully presented their own analysis.
Brando pursed his lips, and that was exactly what he wondered—
However, it is not a simple interface, and this is only one of the inferences, which is the same as solving the task, which requires layers of cocooning. Brando remembers how to solve a series of story missions, and there are no quest hints for any of the missions in Amber Sword. A clue needs to be repeatedly inferred and tempered by the player himself.
He was most familiar with the process.
He glanced at the eldest son of the Cruz man, who needed someone to help him prove the falsification, but the swarthy face of the young man from the House of Aurelius was as expressionless as ever, neither rebuke nor approve, as if the poet were not against him.
This future emperor of the Cruz people is really not an ordinary person, Brando secretly commented in his heart, but at this moment someone finally spoke.
It was Lorena who asked, "Aren't they incapable of absorbing the magic of the Frost Giant's weapons and armor?" I mean, these are the beings of the Twilight Age, and the Frost Giants are their mortal enemies, so maybe there's any way to restrain them? ”
"Impossible, Sister Lorenna," Shiduo shook her head, she suddenly smiled slightly, and looked at Brando: "Lord Count has also noticed this, I noticed that you shook your head slightly just now, can you help me explain it to them, after all, Shiduo's words alone are not convincing." ”
Brando saw Miss Scholar winking at her, and that good-natured, playful smile, and understood what the latter meant: Miss Scholar wanted to use his prestige in Veronica's heart to illustrate the matter, but Brando was not annoyed, he looked at everyone and asked, "Have you noticed those weapons stuck in the mercury?" ”
"What's a good idea with those broken weapons?" Filas was stunned.
But not everyone's brain structure is a straight line, especially Laurenna, who looked back at the blades of the Frost Giants and Miner, and then her face changed.
All weapons inserted in mercury are completely devoid of their magical powers.
"Lord Earl is really careful to observe, in fact, I have also done real yàn, and the result of real yàn is that those mercury can react to the magic equipment of the frost giant, but there is not much residual magic power in these magical equipment from the ancient era, and one or two pieces may not be able to revive them-" Shiduo sighed and continued to reply: "It's a pity that I was too reckless to use the complete magic moonstone for the next step of the test at once, otherwise, I wouldn't have encountered those troubles later." ”
"If we hadn't run into those troubles, we wouldn't have been able to raise our minds now," Brando replied, "and put this matter aside, do you have any thoughts when you hear this?" ”
Veronica had been hearing that at this moment, a Cruz soldier like her seemed to have a natural calmness, just like His Royal Highness the Prince. The lady nodded at the silver hilt before asking, "One or two pieces of magical equipment are not enough to revive them, meaning more is enough, if there are more similar creatures under this glacier, then we won't see any magical equipment left with magical power today, do you mean so, Shiduo?" ”
Shiduo nodded.
She continued: "Actually, I think we've gone into a misunderstanding. Lord Veronica, Lord Count, we see the corpses of these Miners. I thought that the monster that killed them must still be alive. But if you think about it, this assumption is not necessarily true, and it is entirely possible that they were killed here as well. The corpse was a puddle of silver liquid in the ice cavern. ”
"Wait, I see what you mean, you're saying that these Min'er were the final victors, and now we see that these corpses are nothing more than warriors who died with these monsters, and these monsters are all left here - how is this possible?" Lorenna retorted with a frown.
"Possibly, Sister Lorena, we always have a preconceived idea that these silver monsters are terrifying, and we force an impression of invincibility on them. But this is not the case, didn't His Highness kill one of them, the Minr people are the descendants of the People of Gold. Why can't they be defeated? Shiduo turned her head, glanced at the female knight, and explained in an orderly manner.
Lorenna opened her mouth, dumbfounded: "But ......" She paused, always feeling that something was wrong. But after thinking about it for a while, I reluctantly found a reason: "But I don't understand, if there are still Miner people alive, why don't they pick up the corpses of their companions and let them be exposed to the wilderness?" ”
Brando shook his head, "It's normal because they're Miner. Rather than the Cruz, or the Eruin, the Minr revered the valiant warriors, and leaving the corpses of their comrades on the battlefield was a form of respect for them. ”
"So it's really the Miner people who stayed back then, did they stay here? Will we meet them? ”
Brando shook his head, and the vision of the dream came to his mind, and the image of the Miner procession on the glittering glacier lingered before his eyes. He closed his eyes and seemed to rest silently for a while before he spoke: "No, although the Minr people claim to be the descendants of the Golden People, they are not ancient Minr after all, and they do not have the longevity of the dragon. ”
"That's a good feeling," Filas finally let out a sigh of relief when he heard this, and replied loudly, "whether it's the Miner people, or these monsters, since they're all dead, it's not a good thing." ”
Brando glanced at the grinning fellow, and thought to himself that recklessness and ignorance were sometimes a blessing, at least he didn't feel nervous or afraid. But is it really that simple, I'm afraid it may not be, Shiduo's reason makes sense, but he has never forgotten what kind of place it is.
Here's a copy --
"Filas, what we are talking about is just speculation, no one knows what dangers lie beneath this ice, and if you let up your mind, you would be very wrong." Shiduo sighed, apparently she wasn't the first day she had known our lucky knight.
"Little Shiduo, you're scaring me again, aren't you?" Filas snorted.
"I'm afraid not necessarily." Brando's hand had never left his sword from the beginning, and he looked up, staring at the dark shadows between the glaciers, "Have you ever considered the question of why the Miner people are here?" ”
"Isn't it a run, Elder T ......," Shiduo replied quietly, but her voice grew quieter as Miss Scholar saw Brando shake her head slightly.
Brando didn't answer this time, but in his mind, the scene of Miner throwing the golden box into the rift was repeated, over and over again, like a fragment of an old movie.
The witch doctor of the dancing Minr.
Sacrificer.
Cabinet of gold sè.
Rift.
The bottomless abyss -
He pursed his lips, and an inexplicable momentum spread from his back, and everyone around him didn't seem to dare to speak anymore, only Veronica asked in a low voice, "Brando, where should we go next?" ”
"Go, Peya call and ask where her brother is." Brando didn't look back, but replied.
