Chapter Seventy-Eight: Firedemon Frem
In order to stop Joshua's sneak attack, when Brand supported the magic of the wall of flames, it changed from two hands to one hand, and the magic on the wall instantly weakened, and the area of the flames shrank by nearly half.
"Good chance!" Gerant's sword darted, his feet flying over the wall of flames. He clenched his sword in both hands, slashed his head and face with the back of his sword, and swung it at Brand. The moment the blade was about to touch Brand, an orange flame suddenly struck Geraint. The sword that was about to be cut down had to be raised again only a foot from his face. With a "ping-pong", the fireball burst open, and Geraint's body fell to the ground.
"Who are you, who dare to besiege my brother here, it must be a spy sent by the Empire, right?" A slightly shorter young man dressed in ochre-red mage robes appeared behind Brand.
"Ian, you're here too, hurry up and help me get this group of Imperial spies!" Brand laughed.
"I think there's a misunderstanding, we're not spies sent by the Empire, we're ......," Geraint hurriedly explained.
"Say whatever you want, I'll go to our interrogation room and talk about it later!" Several purple fireballs flew towards Geraint, interrupting his speech.
"These people are so unreasonable and don't give us a chance to explain. Joshua thought to himself.
"I'll deal with this adult, and I'll leave that kid over there to you, Ian. He looks about your age!" Brand said to the young man behind him.
"Give me your name, child!" Ian walked up to Joshua, "I'm Cangyan Ian, and I'm here today to teach you imperial spies a good lesson." ”
"Hmph, you don't look much older than me, and it's ridiculous to call me a child!" said Joshua, shaking his head, "and you've ever seen someone like me come and be a spy?"
"Not necessarily, we've fought the Imperial Knights many times. There are many children in the Knights, but there are many strong people. At the beginning of the battle of Flame City, there was a girl in the Red Dragon Knights who defeated us who turned out to be their deputy leader. The hateful-looking man of the White Dragon Knights was accompanied by a child, who was said to be his apprentice. Seeing that you can defeat all of our squires at a young age, God knows which Order of Boy Scouts you are. Ian sneered.
"It's unreasonable!" Joshua patted his head and looked like he couldn't laugh or cry, "It seems that we can't get out of it today without distinguishing between the superior and the inferior." ”
"Take it, Flame Technique!" Ian chanted the spell, and an orange flame turned into two small fireballs in his palms. I saw him push forward with both palms, and the fireball flew towards Joshua.
"Goddess of Light, help!" Joshua dodged Ian's fireball. Flames exploded on the ground beside Joshua, and red dirt splattered in all directions.
On the other side, Geraint and Brand began to collide with magic again. Geraint stabbed Brand with his sword in both hands, and Brand turned into a purple fireball in his hand that enveloped the tip of Gelandt's sword. After being approached by Geraint, the two formed a balanced situation, and neither could shake the opponent. The duel between vindictive spirit and magic has reached a stalemate, and the two sides are inseparable.
"Stop it all!" Suddenly, a low, vicissitudes of voice came from afar. As soon as he finished speaking, a fire dragon circled and flew between Geraint and Brand. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two hurriedly took a few steps back, and the fire dragon passed between them, and suddenly turned around and flew back into the distance. At this time, an old man in a red robe appeared in front of everyone. He raised his hands, and two circles of light flashed in his hands, and the fire dragon was instantly absorbed by the aperture.
Geraint looked at the old man carefully, with a bald head, a gray beard, and a thin appearance. "Mistress Frem, is that you?"
"Haha, is that you, Knight Geraint? we haven't seen each other in years. Frem walked slowly to the crowd. It turned out that this person was the current leader of the Aika family, Frem Aika, who was known as the Fire Demon.
"Father, do you know these Imperial spies?" said Brand, surprised.
"Brand, why don't you jump to conclusions without asking? These people are friends of our Aika family. Frem scolded.
"Hehe, someone finally knows us!" Joshua laughed.
"Miss, since you're all your own people, you should stop!" shouted the attendants trapped in the Hernar enchantment as Frem appeared.
"Uh...... I'm so tired!" Heinal put away her magic and sat on the ground, but soon she jumped up again, "Wow! ”
"Knight Geraint didn't expect us to meet here! I heard that during the rebellion six years ago, the main members of your Golden Dragon Knights lost their sights after the collapse of the Temple of Light. I thought I'd never see you again in my life. Frem looked at Geraint carefully, "After so many years, you have gone through a lot of vicissitudes, Geraint!"
"Lord Frem, it's hard to describe what happened back then. But one thing is certain, Parsa is the real rebel, and Lord Byron is framed!" Geraint was very indignant, "Parsa is the real murderer of King Bixia. ”
"We were the first shili to come out and speak out against Parsa's succession to the throne and declare independence. Unfortunately, my father died not long after. Parsa sent the Red Dragon Knights to collude with the Shili-Kidd brothers, the biggest bandits in the Fire Kingdom, to take Flame Chaser. We've been resisting the Empire's invasion around Red Earth for years. The other day I also wrote to Lord Haig in Mallory, asking him to send someone to help us. Frem recounted to Geraint the important events that had taken place in the province of Burning Fire in the past few years.
"Actually, we are the people sent by the Lord of Haig to help you. It was only before arriving at Port Dolly that we encountered a ferocious tsunami and the whole ship capsized. A few of us got here by luck. The other warriors of Freedom Wings have now lost contact, and I can only pray to the Goddess of Light for the best of luck. Geraint had a sad look on his face.
"Tsunami?" Frem mused, "it must have been due to the recent anomaly of Mount Isaro that caused a lot of geological activity here, which caused the tsunami." ”
"I've heard that Mount Isaro only erupts once every seventy years, and the last eruption was twenty years ago, right?"
"Yes, the next eruption is supposed to be fifty years away, but in recent months, the volcano has been filled with white smoke and ground tremors, and there is a feeling that it is about to erupt. Frem frowned.
"So what should we do now?" asked Geraint.
"We can't control when the volcano erupts, but we must deal with the monsters that have been infested by the volcano's magic. "For some reason, the movement of volcanic monsters has become more and more frequent recently, and the local villagers have been attacked frequently. And their behavior is becoming more and more brutal, which I find very strange. ”
"Someone must have done something to the monsters there. "We also encountered a few volcanic monsters before we got here, and it took us a lot of effort to solve them. ”
"Father, since we are all friends, let's invite them in and sit down, aren't you afraid of sore legs when you stand here and talk all the time?" Brand interjected.
"Lord Frem, these two are your children, right? When I saw them, they were only that high. No wonder you don't recognize me!" Geraint scrutinized Brand and Ian's faces, looking for their childhood features.
"It's been a long day and it's been hot and hungry, so I can finally get some rest. They're supposed to take care of our dinner, right?" asked Joshua in a whisper.
"Hmph, you know how to eat!" Joshua glared at Hernar.
"You ......," Hernar gritted her teeth in anger.
The group arrived at the Eka family's mansion and began to sit down and discuss in detail what had happened recently.
"We've all heard about Lord Haig and Roger's Pirate Regiment teaming up to wreak havoc on the Imperial Knights, it's wonderful!" Brand laughed.
"But what we're going to do next isn't so pretty!" said Freem, his tone solemn.
