The Amber Sword

Scene 70 Brando’s New Debt

After making up his mind to ignore Bai Bai, Brando grabbed the broken protrusion under the ice and climbed up carefully. Since he didn't know how deep he was swept underground by the avalanche before, he couldn't do it at this time. Know how long to walk before you see the ground. √∟,

But after passing through several sharp ice peak faults, he suddenly remembered what Bai had mentioned before about those fragments. He recalled what he had seen and heard in the other party's dream, and suddenly asked: "So after that, you Is it because of the other half of the fragments that you join the Gathering of All Things?"

"What?"

"I mean those fragments of the other half of Sifah's heart. You should have been looking for them since you left Villefort."

Bai fell silent. Brando thought for a moment and understood her concerns, and replied: "Actually, you don't have to worry about it. I have no interest in eternal things. I'm just curious that such a thing really exists in this world. I want you to be honest." If you don’t want to say it, we can end this topic.”

"That's not necessary." Bai's voice sounded faintly: "I did join the Union of All Things to find the fragment. After I left Villefort, I was looking for their whereabouts. Later, by chance, I By chance, I learned that the Union of All Things is also looking for these fragments——"

"The Unity of All Things is also looking for these fragments?" Brando couldn't help interrupting her.

"Of course, I have my own methods and sources of information. I have made almost no mistakes in the past thousand years. It was also through this method that I learned about the existence of the Heart of Sifach and found the Villefort family."

When mentioning his own methods, Bai's voice sounded calm and confident.

"But how do you confirm that they are not interested in the Heart of Sifah itself? ... or are they interested in something eternal?"

"Because before I confirmed this news, decades ago in the north of Eruin, they used the Book of Mavicart to summon demons to come and destroy a principality. At that time, this incident caused shock across the entire continent. When I was traveling around Silver Bay after leaving Valfor, I happened to be involved in investigating the matter because I was looking for the whereabouts of the Book of Mavicart."

"...During the investigation, I found that the whole thing was not as simple as it appeared, and there were many doubts. So I tried to find a lot of documents about this incident at the time. Among these records, There are many references to the fact that members of the All-Union Church were apparently looking for something, but unfortunately these obvious clues were ignored by the Temple record-keepers.”

Bai's voice was obviously disdainful: "I followed this clue. It didn't take much effort to find out that what they were looking for was a fragment. At that time, I happened to have just learned about the fragment of the eternal thing. The truth, so it is natural to connect the two things together.”

"So you infiltrated the One for All and they found the fragment?"

"I have experienced a lot in the Union of All Things. It took me about fifteen years to get to the middle and upper levels of this organization. There is no hope for me to go up. Although I have had plenty of time for thousands of years, the problem does not lie in this: The structure of this organization is much stricter than that of the Tree Shepherds, and I will not do anything in vain, so I decided to take the risk."

"what have you done?"

"I spent three years waiting. I spent another year preparing for this, and finally bribed an insider to give me access to the fragment. I knew that my chances of survival were slim, so I prepared in advance. I finished the ritual of transforming the undead, and it was later proven that it was correct - I was seriously injured while escaping from the pursuit of the All-Union Society, and I only escaped by transforming myself into an undead."

"And the Union of All Things will not accommodate the undead, so I had no chance of surviving until I escaped to Madala. That happened about thirty years ago. I lived in seclusion in Madala for twenty-five years to avoid the Return of All Things. It was an eye-catcher for a while. I got the fragment from them and also took away part of the Book of Mavicart.

"

Bai's tone was calm. It seems as if he is describing something that has nothing to do with him. Brando secretly marveled that the Union of All Things was active in Warnd and had no idea how deeply it had penetrated the world of order. Although their plans were not always successful, they rarely heard of them suffering losses.

Not only did Bai infiltrate into the organization, he also managed to get into the middle and upper levels. Judging from the results alone, it is also brilliant. There is no need to go into details about what the Book of Mavicart means to the Oneness of All Things. It seems that they spent so much effort to recover the fragments that are connected to the eternal things. They are not something that can be discarded casually. .

This woman is calm and thoughtful, yet ruthless enough when it's time to take action. If her acting style wasn't too paranoid, Brando couldn't help but admire her, but at this time, he was more thinking about whether he was cooperating with the other party and seeking skin from the tiger.

Bai seemed to have the ability to see into people's hearts. She said contemptuously: "Why, do you feel afraid?"

"There is a point where no one is willing to provoke a madman, let alone a madman with abilities and means, and I am no exception." Brando replied.

"I think you are complimenting me, so I will accept it calmly."

Brando could only remain silent about some of this woman's words and deeds.

"Where's the fragment? If I remember correctly, you didn't bring it with you at the time, right?" Brando suddenly remembered the time when he fought with this woman in East Metz. He couldn't help but feel lucky that it was fine at the time. I have the opportunity to understand history, otherwise I really don’t know what my death will be like.

"Of course I can't carry it with me. The Oneness of All Things has not forgotten me yet. I know very well how those people act. They are more vengeful than you think. Including you, you should be among them now. are on their blacklist, don’t forget how many times you ruined their ‘good deeds’.”

Bai sneered and said: "The trouble you caused them that time in the Death Frost Forest is no better than the impact I caused when I stole Mavicart's Book and the fragment. I don't know if they will give you a big gift at some point."

Brando frowned. He knew a lot about the Unity of All Things, and obviously understood that what Bai said might be true. However, he was a little helpless about this matter. He could only use troops to cover up the water and earth. In other words, this meant that he had no worries about having too many debts.

He has offended too many forces along the way. All things come together, the tree shepherds, the empire, Madara, and small roles such as the royal party and the northern nobles can now be ignored.

Now a world boss has been added. The Dragon of Dusk, compared to this one, the others are nothing.

"You left the fragment in Madara?" he asked casually.

"You asked too many questions." Bai Ze replied mercilessly.

"Sorry, I just mentioned it casually." Brando replied: "But I am a little curious. Last time in East Metz, although you were nominally working for the Supreme Being holding a mercury staff, you were actually a person. The identity of the Patriarch of the Tree Shepherds is more important - I am curious as to why you joined the Tree Shepherds after that. Is it the same reason as the Union of All Things?"

"Humph, little clever one." Bai Leng coldly replied: "But this time you guessed it right. The reason why I mixed with the tree shepherds was indeed to find those fragments. I suspect that the Dragon Queen may have a fragment in her hand, but the time is too long." Short, I haven’t had time to confirm it yet. I originally planned to spend the next few decades confirming this matter, but I didn’t expect that you would interfere with it. Damn it——”

"You can't blame me, you were the one who started it." Brando's implication is simple - you asked for it.

"That's not what I'm angry about." Bai snorted softly: "What I'm angry about is that I accidentally fell into your hands and ruined my reputation. Especially after that, your performance turned out to be so unsightly. If If you dare to reveal this experience in the future, I will fight you until death."

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

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

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

"Um?"

"You should still 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. Unexpectedly, the other party slapped him in the face in the blink of an eye.

He couldn't figure out how he could owe the other party anything, when she and he 'died together'. He also didn't get any loot. It would be ridiculous if she wanted to blame him for her own losses at that time, and in that case, there would obviously not be only one thing.

"If I'm not wrong, you should still owe me a fragment."

"..." Brando's hand slipped and he almost lost his grip and fell from the crevice in the glacier. Fortunately, he was now strong in the game. He slid down dozens of feet and inserted his hand into the glacier to stop the downward trend.

Then he shouted angrily: "I don't think that joke is funny at all, Ms. Tiamas."

"This is no joke. Let me ask you, did you save a little girl in Fatan Port?" Bai asked seriously, not caring about his words.

Brando was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes... that is the daughter of Huaye Ling, her name is -"

"I'm not interested in what her name is," Bai interrupted him: "She was escorted by a group of imperial knights, and there was a noble among them. What was his name?"

"Rodney, he is Veronica's brother." Brando remembers this man very clearly because of Veronica's relationship.

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

"You..." Brando suddenly became angry and began to feel that it was very painful to talk to this unreasonable woman.

"This person is mine," Bai Que said, "You should have imprisoned them, right? Have you searched their bodies and gotten a fragment from his hand?"

"Of course not," Brando replied subconsciously. The war was about to begin. How could he be so interested in collecting some inexplicable fragments? Besides, he didn't even know the existence of this thing at that time.

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

Bai noticed his tone and couldn't help but gloated: "Why, are you speechless?"

Brando was in no mood to pay attention to her.

Because he suddenly remembered that such a thing seemed to have happened at that time, and it almost caused big trouble. But he doesn’t only have one of that thing——
