Act 245: The Undead Migrate North, the Slate War (Part 2)
With the help of these two people, Brando has reason to believe that Freya's next trip should be smoother, as long as there are no big changes within the Kingdom of Eruin before that. ︽,
On the other hand, Medissa and Hipamira had bid farewell to him nearly a week ago, and went to the Planeswalker's training ground with the Seven-pole Dragon King Fucia for a trial. According to the Evil Dragon King, They might be able to make it in time for the next adventure. However, Brando has told the two young ladies in advance that if they are too late to join him in the central area of the Dead Moon Inner Sea after the trial is completed, then let Foscia take them back to Eruin to help Frey. Her Royal Highness Princess Yahe calmed down possible unrest in the kingdom.
Because according to Queen Madara, the alliance between the dragon and the Cruz people suffered a huge defeat in East Metz. Although the specific loss has not yet been reported back, the death of Owinros made the situation at this moment... The Dragon Clan has lost their last Dragon King. Under such circumstances, the only dragon king of the dragon clan is Foccia, who was exiled by them. If Foccia returns at this time, she might really be able to return to the throne of the dragon king.
And if Fucia wants to go to Cruz to take on this important task, then Medisa and Hipamila will just happen to be on the way with her.
In the end, Andrea and Silver Elf have to go with the migrating undead. The only ones left who can complete the mission with Brando are Huang Huo, Fang Qi, and Delphine. Mr. Liu has to fight with Yu Because the princess of the Phoenix lineage was traveling with her, she also chose to participate in this operation. As for the people around Fang Qi who originally belonged to Gui Che, Brando dismissed them, and a few elders were handed over to Her Majesty the Queen of Madala for her supervision.
The only exception is Princess Magdalene. Originally, Brando wanted the princess to return to Eruin with Blanc, and then find a way to return to the Principality of Antobu Luo from Eruin. But unexpectedly, Andrea suggested that he take the princess with him. Princess Magdale herself also expressed such a wish. It was said to be related to her life experience. For this reason, Brando could not refuse and had to agree. . That's why she appears in this team at this moment.
In fact, since the nun princess obtained the Book of the Earth, Andrea and her fellow war goddesses have been taking turns teaching her how to use the ability of the 'creator' in the past month. Although Her Royal Highness the Princess has almost never actually participated in a battle, the instinct and memory of another personality buried deep in her soul are still there, and her learning progress is pretty good, and she now has enough fighting power to protect herself.
But for Her Royal Highness, Brando didn't consider too much combat effectiveness, but because he promised Blanc, he didn't refuse. What's more, he himself is very curious about the secrets of Silver Plains.
The withered and dilapidated scene of the City of the Undead seemed to have affected the mood of everyone in the team. Other than that argument, not much was said along the way. Fang Qi would pull out the Yulong Holy Sword from the scabbard from time to time and wipe it carefully, looking a little idle. Mr. Liu said nothing and his expression was solemn, not much different from usual.
Both Princess Magdar and Huang Huo seemed a little worried, but the former was obviously because of his own life experience, while the latter was because of the legends about the Dusk War that he had heard repeatedly in the past few days.
anyway. This princess of the Yufeng lineage has never forgotten her identity and what she cares about. In addition to his own practice, there is also the future of the Nine Phoenix Kingdom.
Soon, the team arrived at the Temple of the Dead Moon. This temple looks even more shocking than it did a few days ago. This temple was once the tallest and most majestic building in the City of Eternal Death, but at this moment, the solemn and sacred atmosphere of the past is almost gone. The main body of the temple has almost collapsed. Only a thin, crumbling remnant of a broken wall was left, as if it would collapse at any time as long as a gust of wind blew by.
As far as the eye can see, there are endless ruins. Only a few buildings in the side halls can survive, but most of them have been severely damaged. If it weren't for the terrifying cracks that appeared in the performance. Either there is something wrong with the internal support structure. Although there is no problem with the whole building on the outside, the foundation is actually leaning in one direction.
The side hall where the Meditation Sanctuary is located is located in it. Because Queen Madara had already anticipated the fall and arrival of the Dead Moon Goddess, she had already reinforced this place with a magic array when building the teleportation array. Therefore, the Meditation Sanctuary is located here. The building complex is now the best preserved in the entire temple.
The Black Knight Guards are currently patrolling the outside of this temple. This is the central area where the Death Moon Goddess descends. However, due to some powerful undead creatures, the number of descendants of the evil god here is the least. In fact, after several days of fierce fighting, most of the descendants of the evil god were driven to the east of the city, otherwise there would not be so many refugees here.
Because Queen Madara was accompanying them, the Black Knight Guards ignored Brando and his group, and the group quickly filed into the Meditation Sanctuary. The incomplete altar that Delphine saw a week ago has now been completed. Brando walked through the courtyard of the Meditation Sanctuary and saw the portal, which looked similar to the flames of the Temple of Flame. There are many similarities between the two doors - a circular arch stands above the altar, and the arch is covered with various patterns, using Brando's elements to make the level, for this level of magic runes Obviously I can't understand a single big word, but space magic is mostly the same, so even if it is exactly the same as the portal of the Temple of Fire, there is nothing surprising.
He noticed that the undead and bugbear craftsmen he had seen a few days ago were no longer around the altar. There were only twenty-two wizards in black robes standing in a circle, each holding a bone staff. These people are obviously the wizards who will preside over the activation of the magic circle later.
There are no peerless masters like the Cruz Empire's Great Holy See Vara in Madara. To launch a teleportation array of this level, they can only rely on numbers. Brando could tell at a glance that these black-robed wizards were all lichs, and each of them had at least elemental enlightenment or even strength above the side of truth.
The strength of these lichs is not considered top-notch in Madala, and they can barely reach the upper level of combat power. Queen Madala keeps them here, obviously with the idea that they can be discarded in case of an accident. From this point, Brando once again felt the undead's acting style - cold and direct.
In fact, Brando had already experienced a long-distance teleportation when he was outside the elemental realm. Moreover, the portal built by the undead is a directional portal, which is even more stable and safer than the non-directional portal that Medisa and the others used in Rush Tower, let alone the one he can directly travel through the space turbulence. That kind of cheating teleportation is comparable.
Therefore, Brando did not show much nervousness and walked directly to the teleportation altar. Then there was Huang Huo. As a princess of the Jade Phoenix lineage, she was obviously no stranger to teleportation, and she calmly followed her teacher up. Fang Qi, Mr. Liu and Delphine also behaved quite calmly. However, Princess Magdale, who had experienced a long-distance teleportation, seemed a little nervous and her face looked a little pale. Brando comforted her in a low voice, temporarily diverting the attention of the princess before she calmed down.
After everyone walked up to the altar, Her Majesty the Queen of Madala raised her head and said: "There is nothing else I want to say before leaving. I must remind you that the dangers in this line of work are unpredictable. I cannot guarantee that you will survive. Come back, in fact I have another plan, if you are unable to return, I also have a way to deal with it."
Brando knew that she was talking about the agreement between Bai and Isis, but before he spoke, the prime minister Qian Jin beside him smiled and replied: "Your Majesty, since the danger is unpredictable, there is nothing to say. Yes. Lady Martha protects us."
Queen Madara shook her head indifferently: "The will of the Black Rose of Bromanda is that if there is a chance. It is valuable, no matter how high the price is, we are willing to bear it. For the undead, nothing is more terrifying than eternal death. , but even if it is eternal death, we can face it calmly. However, for you fragile races. You cannot understand our cruelty not only to others, but also to ourselves. We will not leave any last words, because That makes no sense, but I thought you might have extra requirements—"
"Your Majesty the Queen. Please take back your words," Huang Huo raised his head and replied firmly: "The inheritors of Jade Phoenix also have the courage to face everything, even death, otherwise they would not choose this path."
"But death is not terrible, little girl, you will never understand that," Queen Madara replied.
Seeing that the dispute was going to be endless, Brando frowned and interrupted Her Majesty the Queen: "Leave your last words to others. I have a question to ask you, Her Majesty the Queen."
Queen Madara returned her gaze to him, looked at him deeply and said, "Speak."
"For Madara, if you want to reconcile with Saint Osor and Faenzan, there is actually a better choice than the Eruin people, isn't it?"
"You mean the Buga people?" Queen Madala seemed to have expected this question.
Brando nodded. This was actually a question he had always had in his mind. He suppressed the question until he finally asked it. Although there was a guess in his heart, he still hoped to get the exact answer from the other party.
"After the disaster of the dead moon, the Buga people lost their kingdom in the sky. Now the speed of transmitting information between continents is slower than in any previous era. It is also difficult for the Buga people to communicate with each other through their monitoring points as in the past. The floating cities are teleported back and forth, so they may not have time to know everything that is happening here at the moment," Queen Madala replied: "But this is only one of them, the other is that the relationship between the Buga people and the wind elves may not be as good as you think. so good."
"What do you mean?" Brando asked with a faint movement in his heart.
"The Buga people have hidden conflicts with the four empires. Whether it is the Cruz people, the Faenzan people or the wind elves, they will not be happy for someone to dictate to them from above. And before the disaster of the moon, the Buga people were actually Quite a few have returned to the earth, and in order to compete for the stone slabs, there has been a lot of friction between the wind elves and the Faenzan people."
"In fact, according to the last news I got, a group of Buga people are at war with the wind elves. Although a full-scale war has not yet broken out, the wind elves may not choose to trust their enemies at this time."
Brando completely understood after hearing this. Although history has gone a long way, at least at this moment, it still stubbornly maintains its inertia.
The Slate War still broke out. Historically, the friction between the Buga people and the wind elves was the fuse of this war. But this is just the beginning, and more serious things will happen next.
After listening to Queen Madala's words, Brando was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "If your Majesty is really interested in reconciling with the wind elves and Faenzan people, and hopes to fight against the Dragon of Twilight, I have two things to warn you. His Majesty."
"oh?"
