Act Seventy: Brando's New Debt

Having made up his mind not to pay attention to Shiro, Brando grabbed the shattered protrusion under the ice and carefully climbed upward, not knowing how deep the avalanche had been swept into the ground, so he didn't know how long it would take to see the ground.

But after passing through several sharp ice peak faults, he suddenly remembered what Bai had mentioned about those fragments before, and he recalled what he had seen and heard in the other party's dream, and suddenly asked, "So after that, you joined the One Everything Gathering for the other half of the fragments?" ”

"What?"

"I mean, those fragments of the other half of the Heart of Siphah, you've been looking for them since you left Villefort."

Bai was silent, Brando thought for a moment and understood her concerns, and replied: "Actually, you don't have to care, I don't have any interest in eternal and immortal things, but I'm just a little curious about the existence of such things as zài in this world." If you really don't want to say it, we can close this topic. ”

"That's not necessary." Bai's voice sounded faintly: "I did join the One Society of All Things in order to find the fragments, and since I left Villefort, I have been searching for their whereabouts. Then, by chance, I learned that the Society is also looking for these fragments—"

"The One Society is also looking for these fragments?" Brando couldn't help but interrupt her.

"Naturally, I have my own methods and sources of information, which have hardly been missed for nearly a thousand years, and it is through guò that I have learned about the existence of the heart of Siphach, and found the Villefort family."

When referring to his means, Shiro's voice appeared calm and confident.

"But how do you know for sure they're not interested in the Heart of Siphah itself? …… Or are you interested in the eternal and immortal? ”

"Because before I confirm this news, decades ago in northern Eruin, they used the Book of Mavikart to summon demons to descend and destroy a principality, and at that time the incident caused a stir throughout the continent. And when I left Villefort and traveled around Silver Bay. It happened that he was looking for the whereabouts of the Book of Mavikalt and intervened in the investigation of the matter. ”

“…… In the process of investigation, I found that the whole thing behind it is not as simple as it appears, and there are many suspicious points. I managed to look through many of the documents of the time about the event, and many of these accounts mentioned the fact that the members of the Society of All Things One were apparently looking for something at the time, but these obvious clues were ignored by the temple recorders. ”

Bai's voice was obviously a little disdainful: "I'll follow this clue to find it." It didn't take much effort to find out that what they were looking for was a fragment, and I had just learned the truth about the fragments of the Eternal Immortal, so it was only natural that the two things came together. ”

"So you infiltrated the One Thing, and did they find the shard?"

"I've been through a lot of things in the One Society, and it took me about fifteen years to get into the middle and upper echelons of this organization, and then there's no hope for anything to go up. Although I had time for thousands of years, the problem was not this: the structure of this organization was much tighter than that of the shepherds, and I would not do useless work, so I decided to take a risk. ”

"What did you do?"

"It took me three years to wait. It took another year to prepare for this, and finally bought an insider member to give me a chance to get close to the shard. I knew that I had little chance of surviving, so I had prepared a ritual to transform the undead, and it turned out to be true - I was badly injured in the process of escaping the One Society, and I managed to escape by transforming myself into an undead. ”

"And the undead will not be able to accommodate the undead, so I will only survive if I escape to Madara, which happened about thirty years ago. I have lived in seclusion in Madara for twenty-five years, avoiding the eyes of the One Thing. I got the fragment from them, and I took a part of the Book of Mavikaert. ”

Bai spoke in a flat tone. It's as if you're narrating something that has nothing to do with you. Brando, however, was secretly amazed that the One Society was active in Vauld, and he didn't know how deeply they had infiltrated the world of order, and although their plans were not always successful, he rarely heard that they would suffer.

Bai not only infiltrated into this organization, but also successfully mixed into the middle and upper classes. Judging from the results alone, it is also brilliant. There is no need to elaborate on what the Book of Mavikalt means to the Oneness Society, but the fragments that they have spent so much effort to recover that are connected to the eternal immortal are not something that can be discarded casually.

This woman is calm and scheming enough, but decisive and ruthless when it is time to strike. If it weren't for the fact that her style of acting was too paranoid, Brando couldn't help but admire, but at this time, he was thinking more about cooperating with the other party, whether he was seeking skin with the tiger.

Bai seemed to have the ability to perceive people's hearts, and she said contemptuously: "What, feel jealous? ”

"There is a point that no one wants to provoke a madman, let alone a madman with the ability and means, and I am no exception." Brando replied.

"When you praise me, I will accept it calmly."

For some of this woman's words and deeds, Brando can only be dumbfounded.

"What about the fragment, if I'm not mistaken, you didn't have it with you at the time, did you?" Brando suddenly remembered the situation when he fought this woman in East Mez, and he couldn't help but be a little glad that he had the opportunity to understand history at that time, otherwise he really didn't know what it would be like to die.

"Naturally, I can't take it with me, everything will be one, but I haven't forgotten me, I know very well what those people do, they are more vindictive than you think, including you, and now you should be on their blacklist, don't forget how many times you have ruined their 'good deeds'."

Bai sneered: "In the Dead Frost Forest, the trouble you caused to them was no less than the impact I caused by stealing the Book of Mavikart and the fragment, I advise you to pay more attention to your territory, maybe they will give you a big gift at some point."

Brando frowned, he knew a lot about the Oneness of All Things, and it was obvious that what he said could be true. However, he is also a little helpless about this matter, so he can only cover up the water with soldiers, or in other words, this is called a lot of debts and not worrying.

There are too many forces he has offended along the way. All things will be one, the shepherds, the empire, the madara, as for the small roles of the royal party and the northern nobles, they can now be ignored.

Now there is another world boss. The Dragon of Dusk, compared to this one, is nothing else.

"You left that fragment in Madara?" He asked casually.

"You're asking too much." Bai replied mercilessly.

"I'm sorry, I just mentioned it casually." Brando replied, "I am a little curious, though last time in East Mez you were nominally working for the Most High with the staff of mercury, but in fact you were more of the Patriarch of the Shepherd—I wonder why you joined the Shepherd after that, and for the same reason as the Oneness of All Things?" ”

"Hmph, clever." Bai Leng replied coldly: "But this time you didn't guess wrong, the reason why I mixed in with the tree herdsman is indeed to find those fragments, I suspect that the dragon queen may have a fragment in her hand, but the time is too short, and I haven't had time to confirm it." I was going to spend the next few decades confirming this, but I didn't expect to be mixed up by you, damn it-"

"You can't blame me for this, you did it first." Brando's implication is simple - it's your own.

"That's not what I'm angry about." Bai snorted lightly: "I'm angry that I will miss your hands and ruin my reputation." Especially after this, your expression is so unsightly, if you dare to reveal this experience in the future, I will definitely fight with you endlessly. ”

Brando couldn't help but be speechless, especially when he thought about what this woman had been looking for for a thousand years, and he felt that the other party's last words might not be just a threat.

For a paranoid, her behavior cannot be justified by common sense.

"That's right." Bai suddenly reacted: "I suddenly remembered something. ”

"Huh?"

"You owe me something."

"What did you say?" Brando was stunned, he originally thought that this woman was just paranoid, but at least she was reasonable, but she didn't expect the other party to slap her in the face in a blink of an eye.

He couldn't think of how he could owe the other party something when she and he 'died together'. He didn't get any booty, and it would be ridiculous for her to have her own losses on his head at the time, and there was obviously more than one thing in that case.

"If I'm not mistaken, you owe me a piece of it."

"......" Brando's hand slipped, and he almost missed his grip and fell off the crack in the glacier. Fortunately, he is now the strength of the game, and he has slid down dozens of feet, and he has stuck his hand into the glacier to stop the downward trend.

Then he exclaimed, "I don't think this joke is funny at all, Lady Tiamas. ”

"This is no joke, let me ask you if you saved a little girl in Port Fatan." Bai didn't care about his words and asked seriously.

Brando was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes...... It was the daughter of the Flower Leaf Collar, and her name was—"

"I'm not interested in her name," Bai interrupted him, "At that time, she was escorted by a group of imperial knights, and among them was a nobleman, what was his name?" ”

"Rodney, he's Veronica's brother." For this person, because of Veronica's relationship, Brando remembers it very clearly.

"I don't care whose brother he is."

"You ......" Brando froze, and began to feel that it was a painful thing to talk to this unreasonable woman.

"This man is my man," Bai said, "You should have imprisoned them, right, have you searched their bodies and obtained a fragment from him?" ”

"Of course not," Brando replied subconsciously, where did he bother to collect some inexplicable fragments when the war was imminent, and besides, he didn't know the existence of this thing at that time.

But as soon as he spoke, he couldn't help but freeze.

Bai noticed his tone and couldn't help but gloat a little: "What, can't you speak?" ”

Brando was in no mood to pay attention to her.

Because he suddenly remembered that there really seemed to be such a thing at that time, and it almost caused a big problem. But he didn't have just one thing.
