Scene 163 Amman The forest has already been filled with heavy fog. When you raise your head, you can't see the sky at all. The figure of the Saint Hydra has long been hidden behind the heavy fog. No one knows whether it is still standing in the valley. But Brando suspected that at least part of it had been fogged, otherwise the forest would not be so foggy.
The figures behind the mist approached quickly, but Brando was slightly startled - it was not the foggy knights who came, but real humans. The knights wore golden-red cloaks with fire-crow ornaments on their chests. The priest among them wore a golden-red silk robe, with a triangular bishop's crown on his head, and small fiery red Cruz letters embroidered on the hanging shoulder straps''—— The only person who can wear such gorgeous clothes is the regional priest of the Temple of Fire.
Brando had already recognized the other person from the old face that was as shriveled as an eggplant, Aman, the high-ranking priest of Eink. He frowned secretly - this guy was not an easy person to deal with - but on the surface, he was Show humility. Brando put away his sword, put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly: "Priest."
But what he was thinking was: This damn bastard, why would the Temple send such a notorious guy out? Aren't they afraid of offending the Druid?
Amman looked at the young man who suddenly appeared and felt satisfied. The other person's attitude was a thousand times better than the mercenaries he met before. "A noble is a noble," he looked at Brando and thought: "At least he is knowledgeable and sensible. ——, but this seems to be an Eruin?" Amman didn't know that players in the game are quite good at dealing with high-level NPCs like them, and Brando's reaction can basically be said to be a habit.
Even Qian gave her lord a strange look, feeling that he was a little too unruly.
Anman and others came from the forest just to confirm whether there were monsters like before. There was no Templar around, only these reserve knights. This made Anman very cautious. Previously, Knight Raymond was martyred in the battle with the Saint Hydra, which shocked everyone. Since the November War, the Temple has not had a high-ranking knight return to the Holy Flame for many years. 'Well, such a loss is simply sad news.
But Anman felt the thing on his chest and thought that Raymond Knight's sacrifice was at least not meaningless, so he let out a breath. The priest raised his head with a kind look on his face: "Young man, you are very good. Where do you belong to the noble family? What is this place? How far is it from the Wolf Pass?"
Amman asked three questions in one breath. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, Brando could still hear the nervousness in this guy's heart.
What is a high-ranking priest so nervous about?
Brando is a little strange,
Is it just because of the monster? But the people in the temple are not afraid of being like this after hundreds of deaths. Those guys are all pure fanatics. Although Amman is not good, it is at best a personality defect. He can become a high-ranking person. There is no one among the priests who is not determined.
He lowered his head and didn't think too much, so as not to arouse the other party's suspicion: "I am Baron Fir. I am afraid that the respected priest has never heard of Tonigel, a remote country, so his reputation is not worth mentioning. But, priest, where is this place? I don’t know, but I’m not far from Wolf Pass.”
Brando was full of beautiful words to send this guy away quickly. Because he is worried that Veronica will catch up at any time, and those people from the Temple of Fire will definitely not be on his side. However, Brando does not dare to show eagerness easily. It is a small matter to arouse suspicion. It would be fun to be labeled as disrespectful to the team's temple. Although this guy has a friendly look on his face now, he knows in his heart what kind of thing this guy is.
Anman nodded. The news that he was not far from the Wolf Pass cheered him up, and the fatigue on his wrinkled face disappeared a lot. However, he wanted to leave just like that, but he felt that it would be too unhuman. Although the temple was lofty, it was not good to give people the impression of being domineering at will. So the great priest took back his steps and said to Brando: "Mr. Baron, we are in a hurry to leave this area. Do you want to go with us?"
Brando sneered in his heart. The temple always worked alone, but this guy invited him, but his face was full of polite refusal. Fortunately, he didn't mind, and just shook his head: "Priest, you should know that I am also coming towards the Lion Heart Sword. Even if I miss it, I hope I won't leave any regrets, so I will continue to move forward."
Anman nodded and resisted the idea of using his skinny fingers to probe his heart to confirm whether the thing was still in place. He just wanted Brando to refuse. However, Brando mentioned the Lion Heart Sword, which made him raise his head and glance at Brando curiously: "In that case, we will not hinder it. Mr. Baron has an extraordinary education. When he returns to the temple, I will definitely write This letter is sent to His Majesty the King of your country as a token of my gratitude."
Anman promised with a friendly face, and for a moment it seemed that even the original gloomy mood had reversed.
Brando smiled slightly, noncommittally, seemingly full of aristocratic elegance. But in my heart I am cursing you for saying so many high-sounding words, get out of here! Are you still the arrogant and greedy Amman? Please don’t destroy the original design casually! Also, my time is limited, can you please keep the story short?
Brando cursed secretly for a long time, and Amman finally saved his face and prepared to say goodbye and leave. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Just as the priest of the Eink region was about to leave, there was a sudden "crash" behind him and a person came out from the forest. It was none other than Veronica.
As soon as the Cruzian goddess of war saw Brando, she struck directly with her sword without saying a word. The sword brought out a slanting beam of light. Brando quickly stepped aside and let the sword energy hit him with a 'swipe' sound. Behind him, a black pine tree split in half with its trunk and crown, and fell backwards with a 'click-click' sound.
Her sword——
Amman and the Templars who were about to leave were suddenly stunned. The priest raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry, but when he saw who the woman in front of him was, he immediately shuddered and swallowed the words that came to his lips. . Although his status is high, he is still inferior to the four regiment commanders of the Cruz people. In terms of reputation, he is almost the same, but everyone knows that the real powerful nobles are those who have soldiers under their command.
What's more, not to mention the titles of Blue Sword Master and Captain of the Sky Army, Veronica is also from one of the twelve oldest families in Cruz. In terms of strength, Amman cannot match it. Perhaps several priests from the richest areas could be on equal footing with this woman, but Amman was by no means one of them.
But now that he was sure that the woman in front of him was untouchable, he immediately turned back and looked at Brando coldly. The meaning in his dull gray-brown eyes was obvious - what's going on? Brando can almost read such a question in his eyes, and he really turns his face faster than turning the book.
After Veronica struck the sword, she appeared next to Brando without saying a word and reached out to grab Brando's shoulder. Brando hurriedly stepped back before he could get out of the way. He stood in front of Qian, for fear that the woman would repeat her same tricks. But this time Veronica came straight towards him, missing one blow and hitting him again immediately.
Brando had no choice but to use the Earth Sword and set up a row of rock thorns to block Veronica. Unexpectedly, Veronica was already furious. She punched a hole in the row of rock thorns and stretched out her hand to grab Brando's shoulder.
Priest Anman couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows when he saw the two fighting. Especially the vision of Brando's Earth Sword made his eyes move.
And Brando knew that his strength was far inferior to the Cruz female war goddess. He could no longer care about his image at this moment, fell back and rolled to the side. The bumpy ground in the forest hurt his back, but he could only endure it. He rolled back and immediately shouted: "Akane."
Qian understood in her heart and immediately stood up and ran away to one side. Brando's charge cooldown was also improved a lot. He threw a destiny card on the ground - of course no one could see it - they only saw a shining fire suddenly appeared on the ground. The red magic circle, and then a huge fire djinn rushed out from it and rushed towards Veronica.
This attack without warning surprised Veronica. She instinctively wanted to pull away and retreat, but she felt that the fire djinn was not as powerful as Silver, and she thought Brando was trying to delay time. After a moment's hesitation, she rushed straight towards the fire giant. She turned the famous sword Qingzhi Qiong in her hand, hoping to give the fire giant a fatal blow.
Unexpectedly, this played into Brando's hands. Brando retreated and snapped his fingers at the fire giant: Explode!
A ray of golden light burst out from the efreet's body. The majestic power contained in it made Veronica, who was the first to bear the brunt, change her face. This was a silver-level elemental creature that instantly released all its magic power and the terrifying power of the fire element. , the attack in an instant almost crossed the threshold of the elements.
Then there was a loud bang, and white light seeped into everyone's eyes, making everyone unable to help but close their eyes. Only Brando, who was well prepared, seized this opportunity and retreated crazily towards the forest in his memory, but at this time he heard the familiar voice of Priest Amman:
"Holy Word. Wall!"
Brando immediately felt that he was blocked by an inexplicable force behind him. He knew what it was without looking back. This translucent wall of light was one of the priest's only field-control spells. Brando immediately stopped. The length of the light wall constructed by the Holy Word of the priest class was more than a hundred meters long, but the height was less than ten meters. He raised his sword upwards, and a rock thorn suddenly rose from the ground. Brando planned to use this rock thorn to cross the wall of light, but the next moment the sound of breaking through the air came from far to near, and a white sword energy passed like lightning from the center of the rock thorn that had just grown, 'click' 'With a sound, the rock thorn suddenly broke from it.
Brando's plan naturally failed. He turned around and found that Veronica had recovered from the previous explosion.
