The Amber Sword

Act 281 The Route of the Moons I

"The little tail disappeared."

Aloz's golden eyes looked away from the sea and said softly.

The little female dragon had an elegant accent. She turned her head and looked at Brando, her eyes flowing, which made Brando feel overwhelmed. Ever since Aloz learned about his relationship with Delphine, his attitude has changed subtly. This naked hint made Brando feel a little excited, but at the same time very frightened.

He didn't hate the little female dragon, but that didn't mean he wanted the relationship between the two to go further. Because he felt that he hadn't reached that level yet, Aloz was more curious about his feelings, and he only regarded her as a naughty little girl - although her personality was sometimes a little... bad.

But the dragon's possessiveness is very strong, Brando knows this very well, and this is the source of his headache. Although Aloz has become much more mature in all aspects of his body after undergoing the coming-of-age ceremony, his stature has become taller and taller, and even his originally flat chest has begun to develop into a smaller size, but no matter from any aspect, , it will still make people feel guilty.

The dragon is very loyal to his partner, but Brando also knows that Aloz obeys lust more than rational feelings. He does not want the two to be connected because of a purely lustful relationship. Delphine That incident had already given him a headache.

Therefore, Brando avoided the eyes of the little female dragon without any trace.

Miss Delphine stood behind the two of them like a puppet, with an indifferent expression. She turned a blind eye to the various little actions of the little female dragon in front of her and Brando's complicated thoughts. At this time, the prime minister's daughter behaved like Like a truly competent maid, she is indifferent to her master's flirtations.

Although Brando hopes she can stand up and say a few words at this time.

As if sensing his thoughts, Delphine finally spoke: "I'm afraid someone is planning a conspiracy against us. Sir."

"What's wrong?" Brando finally broke away from the charming atmosphere and turned around to ask.

There was no one else on the deck. At this time, Huang Huo was practicing his sword skills every day. Fang Qi rarely comes to the deck. The two little elf girls and the nun princess should be preparing dinner. As for Mr. Liu, he is mostly with his eldest daughter.

He was asking about what happened not long ago. After they seized the Bagentine sailing ship from Tauchik and went to sea, it was expected that they would be attacked by sheep-headed believers at sea. After all, they had known that this sea area was in Under the control of the Sheephead Cultists.

About five days ago, they discovered that the ship was being followed. Sure enough, within a day, the Sheep-Headed Cultists came to kill them, but he taught these guys a profound lesson. In that battle he sank three of his opponent's ships, while leaving them almost unscathed.

He thought that these guys would calm down a bit. It seemed that way in the past two days, but not long after, the little tail of the sheep-headed cultists appeared on the route.

Until tonight.

Although the Sheep-Headed Cultists hanging behind have no impact on them, let alone these rabble, even their big boss here - the clone of the Lord of Purgatory Akentu will not have any impact on Brando. threaten. However, there are always flies around, and the buzzing is still annoying. Originally, Brando had planned to let the little female dragon Aloz teach these guys who would not shed tears without seeing the coffin an unforgettable lesson. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the other party suddenly disappeared.

Brando didn't know if the other party realized that they had been discovered long ago, or if it was for some other reason. But suddenly the little tail that had been hanging at the back disappeared, which still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It was evening at this time, and the waves on the sea at this time of the year seemed a little flat as a mirror, but on the real sea, even if it was calm, there were still high waves. The setting sun was divided by these waves, forming a pool of scattered golden light.

The golden light reflected on Delphine's face, making the expression of the Prime Minister Qianjin look particularly serious at this moment: "The Sheep-Headed Cultists gathered here simply to plot to get the Lord of Purgatory Akantu to return to Warend, so the closer they get to the Green Sea The core areas. Theoretically, their control should be tighter and they would never let a strange ship suddenly break into these inner areas. "

"The Sheep-Headed Cultists suddenly removed their surveillance of us. There must be other plans for this, but I don't think this is something they can decide. This matter is related to the plan of Akentu's resurrection. There is a clone of Akentu here. The projection exists, and it is impossible for such a major event not to pass through the Lord of Purgatory, so-" Delphine said here, paused for a moment, and then continued to answer: "I think, unless there is a huge change on the island, ——For example, rebellion, or even the sudden death of the Lord of Purgatory, Akentu, otherwise the 'Lord of Purgatory' must be plotting against us."

"Obviously the latter is more likely." Brando also nodded and agreed.

"Akantu fought against the lord in Tauchik and suffered a big loss. It may have recognized us through the reports of these subordinates. Now it is obviously no match for the lord, so it can only use some conspiracies and tricks. ”

"What about, Miss Delphine?"

"It's hard to guess. It might want to lead us somewhere. If it's not strong enough, it will have to find a way on the battlefield."

"You mean it's preparing a trap?"

"This is just a possibility," the Prime Minister Qianjin glanced at him indifferently: "Lord, don't treat me as an omniscient and omnipotent face god. After all, there are some things that I can't guess."

Brando smiled coquettishly. He straightened up, glanced at the sparkling golden sea, and said, "In short, just be vigilant."

The side of the ship was now hidden under the huge shadow of the sail. When Brando looked back, he saw the sailors busy on the deck. The sailors on this ship were originally sheep-headed believers, so it was naturally impossible for him to take these people on the road with him. Fortunately, they were prepared, because they knew early on that more than half of the trip would be spent at sea, so Madala The Queen prepared undead sailors for them before they set out.

These sailors are secondary undead summoned through the magic circle. Usually they only need to carry the summoned scrolls and materials with them. There is no need to bring a large group of people with you to show off. When using these sailors, Brando had to lament that in addition to their inability to reproduce and their tendency to self-destruct, the undead were indeed superior to living creatures in many aspects.

"Speaking of which, why anchor here? Is this place very close to the realm of stagnation?" Brando asked.

"It's the Jade Mystery. My lord," Delphine corrected: "The riddle itself is actually not complicated. It is just a simple replacement encryption. However, the words used to encrypt are very rare in Jiufeng. I think it should be Haze It is an ancient writing of the Er people, which not many people in Warnd understand..."

She paused: "But I happen to know a little bit about it."

"Miss Delphine, may I ask what you don't know?"

"A lot, everything beyond what I know. I don't know anything."

"It's almost as good as not saying anything." Brando thought to himself.

But Delphine seemed to see through his thoughts and replied: "This sentence was said by the third manager of the Buga Silver Library. I think it is one of the few truths in the world." One, Lord."

"Okay, okay, I understand, then let's go back to the original topic." Brando realized that it was difficult for him to defeat the prime minister's daughter in a verbal dispute, so he changed the subject and said, "Then what?"

"I believe that the encryption itself may have been added later by a Khazerian. What is complicated is what the riddle itself expresses after solving the riddle."

"Get to the point, Miss Delphine."

"That's a set of calculations for calculating the relative positions of the twelve moons and Warnd. Through this set of calculations, I can only deduce the place we've reached now, which is the sea area we're seeing right now -"

"Here?" Brando said in surprise: "That means we are already there?"

"Yes." Prime Minister Qian Jin nodded.

Brando looked around, and there was nothing on the sparkling sea. There is neither land nor island, and not even a single reef can be seen.

"But there is nothing here." Aloz said first.

"Because the Witch Throne is still below the horizon, Miss Aloz."

"You mean to wait until the tide rises and falls?" Aloz asked: "But this is the middle of the ocean, and I can't see any reefs underwater. Are you sure your calculation is not wrong, human woman?"

The prime minister's daughter glanced at the little female dragon and said nothing.

Brando faintly felt an unpleasant aura rising between the two of them, and hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Okay. Don't argue. It's only two or three hours before the Witch Throne rises. Since Those pesky flies have left, we might as well wait here.”

Aloz snorted slightly in dissatisfaction. Then he said no more.

The day seems to be longer at sea than on land, but even so, after enjoying a simple dinner on the boat, the sunset still sinks below the sea level.

In the last part of the day, the sea surface rapidly changes color under the sun, from heavy gold, to an intoxicating deep red like wine liquid, and finally to purple. When the purple sea surface turns into blue and It was replaced by dark blue, until the dark color emerged from the depths, and the sky over the sea was already filled with twinkling stars.

Brando informed everyone of the news he got from Delphine, so after dinner, everyone came to the deck, even the unplanned passengers on the ship - the pair of half-elf sisters.

Everyone gathered on the deck, waiting for the Witch Throne to rise. Not long after, a layer of mist appeared on the sea. Occasionally, fog would appear out of thin air on the sea, but the sudden fogging in such a clear weather was still surprising. The little female dragon originally meant to find fault, but she couldn't help but become suspicious when she saw this scene.

"Speaking of which," Fang Qi leaned on the side of the ship and watched the rising fog gradually cover the entire sea area. He couldn't help but ask, "Where is this place? We passed the so-called It’s the Holy Land of Attuk.”

"That's just the northern end of the Holy Land, Mr. Fang Qi." Because they have been discussed almost every day these days, Princess Magdale is very familiar with it: "The Holy Land of Atuk is the main island of Edeno in this sea area. The other two island groups are the fulcrum of the triangular area, which should be the Banazhi Sea, and the locals call it Yuexia."

"Yue Gorge?" Fang Qi said in confusion: "I think it's better to call it Wu Gorge."

"Mr. Brando, where are you!" At this moment, Lian, one of the half-elf sisters, suddenly exclaimed.
