Act 5 Letter(5)
Brando stood up and walked to Funia, put his hands on the little girl's shoulders, patted her gently and replied Wen Yan, "Funiya is a sensible child," he raised his head and looked at the figure A tall Druid elder. "I regard Funya as my sister, so I entrust her to you in compliance with her wishes. As for whether she can become a forest folk (another name for a druid in Warnd), I have no idea. I don’t care, but I ask you to ensure her safety." He paused and said in a more serious tone: "Can this be done, right?"
Andrew nodded: "You don't need to say it, Lord."
"Thank you, Brother Brando." Funya grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands, raised her head and replied obediently.
Brando smiled slightly and touched her forehead. The little girl's seriousness and sensibleness are naturally lovable everywhere, but in fact Brando doesn't care about what she said about asking the Druid to 'alliance' with him. It can be seen that Andrew was not willing at first, but since they have the connection of Valhalla, this alliance is actually a natural thing.
He turned back and said to the noble girl: "Antitina, take Funya to prepare the things for the journey."
"Eh?" The noble daughter looked at Andrew, as if she had just come back from her thoughts. She looked at Brando in confusion, "Shall I go?"
"Of course," Brando replied: "Although Funya is still a child, she is a girl after all. Naturally, only you girls know what you should bring. Otherwise, you can only let Roman do it for you -" The young man smiled and changed the topic: "But are you relieved to leave Funia to her?"
Antitina thought of the carefree look of the business lady, and was afraid that if she asked her to help Funya prepare her luggage, she would put a bag full of her favorite glass beads into the little girl's small backpack - even though those Each of the glass beads she spent a lot of effort to buy from the merchants when she was in Butchi. She couldn't help but sigh: "But...can't Akane?"
"She is not as careful as you." Brando replied.
Antitina glanced at him, feeling inexplicably happy. But she saw Brando's eyes and knew that the other party might have other things. She thought for a moment and simply asked: "Do you have any other instructions, Lord Lord?"
"Inform Kerenthia and ask them to come see me." Brando replied.
Antitina nodded. She walked over and took Funya's little hand. She took the little girl who turned around every step of the way and went out and closed the door. When they left, only the three of them, Andrew and Brando, were left in the house, as well as the elf girl holding a record book and standing next to the young man with her head bowed.
"Do you have any other orders, Lord?" Andrew looked at this young man who was very ambitious in his eyes.
Then he asked. Although he is not worldly, this mature Druid elder knows that Brando's sending Funia away is not as simple as simply preparing her luggage. "We are druids and we don't know how to talk in roundabout ways. Lord, please speak directly if you have something to say."
"I'm very busy, so I won't see you off on the next journey." Brando replied: "I do have something to say here. I know you have a question about the alliance between you and me. A dispensable mentality——"
"Lord." Reid, who was behind Andrew, frowned and interrupted him. But he immediately saw Brando waving to him.
"Wait until I finish." Brando said: "I know the Druid's attitude towards the Black Forest, including the agreement between you and Niya. This is your tradition, but I also have some words. I want to tell you that the power of chaos is very strong."
"Are you a member of the Oneness of All Things?" Andrew's eyes turned cold: "Silver Serpent? A tree shepherd, or a sheep-headed believer?"
"I thought you would put the tree wrangler at the front."
The elder Druid snorted coldly.
"No," but Brando shook his head. "Those you mentioned happen to be my enemies."
“But the enemy of my enemy is not always my friend.”
"Indeed," the young lord added almost without thinking: "But you and I both understand that this era is coming to an end, and the magic moon's strong period is coming - the last magic tide ended the era of chaos. This time No one knows what will happen. In such an environment, if you want to suppress the growth of the Black Forest, it is a fantasy."
"so what?"
"I know much more about the Black Forest than you do."
Andrew crossed his arms and looked at the young man with extreme suspicion. They have been dealing with the dark forest all their lives, and now a stranger tells them that he knows this forest better than they do. That feeling is even more ridiculous than trying to do whatever you want. It's simply unreasonable arrogance.
Brando just laughed: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Recall that before the age of chaos, Warnd's area was less than a quarter of what it is today. Who opened up such a vast territory and turned the thorny black forest into a Has it become the civilized land it is today?”
Andrew was a little proud: "It's a Druid."
Brando still shook his head. "To be precise, they are the ancient druids of the Ring of the World. After the fall of the Tower of Babel, the Dragon of Darkness scattered the druids into the wilderness, and the Ring of the World split into what it is today. Humans and the orthodox Druid sect." He paused, "Do I need to say this?"
"The lord is indeed knowledgeable."
"No, it's just that we have this in common," Brando sighed deliberately, "Since the fall of the Tower of Babel, there has been a rift between the ancient magic system and the modern magic system. Both druids and wizards I’m looking for ancient heritage, but I happen to know a member of the Dragon Clan, and I happen to have some knowledge of the Druid’s teachings.”
"Do you know ancient magic?" Andrew's eyes became sharp in a flash. He knew that the only known golden remnant in the world was the Dragon Clan. The dragon clan is also the only one who knows ancient string magic today. Although druid magic is a more mysterious rune magic, the mysterious knowledge is often common. What's more, since Brando said this, there must be his hidden meaning.
If he can't understand anymore, he will be a real fool.
"Auis eaam rs," Brando said the spell almost word for word. "Have you ever heard of the Seed of Life?" He raised his head and asked, "You should understand what I mean by this sentence."
The expressions of the three druids suddenly changed. The seed of life Brando talks about is the tree species of the Elf Tree. Tree shepherds often transform this thing into a golden magic tree, but the Holy Tree of Life is the only tree species they found that can effectively transform the black forest. It's just that life tree species are already rare. Apart from artificial cultivation, the only way to find ancient heritage is in the ruins.
After all, it was a legacy from ancient times.
They all heard that the part Brando recited was a transformation spell. The core rune is 'Eaam', which represents the earth. It is most likely the 'Language of Nature' in ancient Druid spells. Legend has it that a black forest can be completely purified and saved from the erosion of magic power. However, that kind of magic has not existed in this world for more than a thousand years, if there are not some records in ancient books. I'm afraid the three of them can only hear some connection between that spell and Druid spells.
Andrew looked at Brando with a complex expression: "The language of nature?"
Brando nodded.
"Lord, do you know this spell? Are you a Druid?"
Brando shook his head. In fact, he was not unfamiliar with this thing, because the incantation was written on ancient stone tablets, and almost every player in the later stage of the game knew it more or less. However, it is impossible to use it just because it is known, because the only thing supporting this spell is ancient stone tablets. The subsequent Wizarding War also broke out for this reason. Simply put, this is a gimmick that looks beautiful but is actually worthless.
But it was enough to attract the attention of these druids.
Sure enough, Andrew frowned: "What does that mean?"
"To put it simply, I am equally interested in the Black Forest," Brando replied, "However, as strong as the order is, the resistance from Chaos will be stronger, so fighting alone is not the most perfect way to solve the problem. "He said while picking up a candle from the table, "Druids are used to solving problems from the perspective of the laws of the world and nature, but the forest goddess has actually pointed out another way for you."
"What way?" Andrew asked.
Brando carefully used scissors to cut off the bifurcated section of the candle's cotton wick, and then lit it. He raised his head and said: "That is to borrow people's power." He replied, "Since the Year of Chaos, apart from the limited traditional model of 'church-pioneering knight', civilization has rarely expanded its guardianship areas outwards. scope. However, due to the lack of territory and the encroachment of magic power, wars within civilizations are increasing day by day——"
As soon as he stopped, he changed the topic: "But I plan to create a new model to end all this. Even if it is just an attempt," the young lord smiled slightly, "But I am confident. I just don't know if you have any not interested."
Andrew lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Lord, you might as well just say it."
"I mean," Brando said, while picking up the envelope on the table, he tilted the candle slightly to let the hot oil wax drip on the envelope. "Transform Eruin into a vibrant, expanding country—"
The three druids all took a breath of air. Andrew expected Brando's ambition, but he didn't expect that this young man's ambition would be so great. His goal is far more than just a prince, but to change this ancient kingdom. They could even tell that his tone was much more than that.
Expansive Eruin.
This young man wanted to build an empire with his own hands.
Ambition is a good thing for some people, but it caused Andrew to feel deeply uneasy, and he gave Brando a wary look. "Expansion brings bloodshed and war, which is contrary to our beliefs," he whispered to avoid causing the other party's displeasure. "So Lord, if you want to use this to induce us to join you, I'm afraid you are wrong."
"War is inevitable," Brando flattened the candle and took off the Wind Queen's ring. "However, for me, war is a means to protect myself. Because you may have misunderstood the meaning of expansion——"
"Wait, you mean?" Andrew interrupted in disbelief.
Brando nodded seriously, "The expansion I'm talking about is aimed at the wilderness." He pressed the Wind Queen's ring on the wax juice, and then lifted it up: "Use the power of the whole country to open up new territories in the wilderness."
