Scene 40 The War of Summer

After the smoke and dust cleared, Brando saw the palm-length and wide card on the ground for the first time. He picked up the card, and painted a tree in a painted style on the front, tall and magnificent, with mysterious veins extending from the trunk to the crown. There is a VII written on the upper left of the card, but there is no crystal mark of element attribute. He was taken aback for a moment, but now that he knew how to deal with such things, he immediately opened the attribute data and scanned it.

The description of the card is changed in a different way:

Holy Tree Secret

(Elf Forbidden Land VII)

[Basic Land - Forest]

Generate 1 point of water element into the element pool every week.

Tapped: Constructs forest terrain.

'My soul returns to Xi, my soul returns to my hometown'

"This set of cards is called the Forbidden Land of the Elf?" Brando was stunned for a moment, and the description on the card did not explain the conditions for this card to take effect. Could it be that just entering his card library will naturally generate a little water element every week? But what if he doesn't have an element pool?

The way to construct a forest by tapping this card is also open to discussion. Of course, he will definitely not be experimenting here now. Although once the golden demon tree falls, its demon servants will scatter like birds and beasts, and will soon wither due to the loss of mana supplies. Maybe one of them can re-root in another forest and continue this ecosystem, but that has nothing to do with Brando.

What Brando was worried about was that after the stone cone worm absorbed the wandering earth elements and magic power below, it would come to trouble the three of them, and the elemental creatures were not full.

He put the cards away, thinking of the magic echo before, there must be another card belonging to the knight deck here. It's a pity that the magic power echo is natural, and it is impossible to stimulate it repeatedly, otherwise he can use this method to search. Brando asked Freya and Roman to collect some golden tree acorns. Ripe acorns can be used to make advanced magic potions, which are also the most luxurious consumables in the game.

It's a pity that a golden magic tree only has seven or eight mature acorns at most, and it's impossible to get it done once and for all.

He went to a place, opened the leaves, and found a pair of gloves wrapped around the aerial roots. Looking at the style of the glove, he recognized that it was a protective glove. The protective glove provided 2 points of protection in the game, but it required strength. Brando vaguely remembered that it was 2.5 energy levels, and he felt heavy as soon as he started, and he was sure that he had guessed almost exactly.

He threw the glove to Freya for a try. He hoped that the latter would be more protective, but the ponytail girl sank as soon as she took her hands. It's too heavy, there's no way, the future Valkyrie can only return it with a look of pity.

"It's a pity," Brando shook his head: "If you wear this, combined with the half body armor of Fenghou, swordsmen below the iron rank will basically not be able to hurt you."

"sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry about, but I think there are only a few people in the guard who can wear them." Brando said while putting on the gloves himself. The girl with the ponytail noticed this detail, and couldn't help being slightly startled—so Brando is already a leader in the security team?

Of course, she didn't know it at all, even Brayson was not enough to see in front of Brando at the moment.

The three of them rummaged clockwise along the fallen tree crown. Roman found a nimble dagger with dexterity +0.1 energy level, and Freya found a priceless 22Oz enchanted ring. You can attach a layer of flame to your sword.

As for the others, most of them are waste products whose magic power has long been lost. Brando used the elven sword to peel off the skin of the golden magic tree and found the heart of the golden tree—to his great disappointment, because it was three years behind the time of the game, the heart of the oak tree was still in the form of a tree crystal .

Of course, it is much purer than ordinary tree crystals.

But material is material,

Equipment is equipment, after all, there is an insurmountable gap between them. This unexpected discovery made Brando vigilant. He couldn't look at things now with the eyes of many years in the game.

After all, this is a real world, and history moves forward slowly.

And when Brando took out the heart of the golden tree, he seemed to feel a breeze caressing the valley-the golden magic tree died. He raised his head and saw eight silver balls of light flying out of the tree trunk, and then merged into his chest.

800 experience points.

Brando couldn't help but stay for a moment. Being both a leapfrog and a boss, 800 experience points is really not much, but it gave him a real shock. After all, the experience in this world is real, and it is a kind of power that can make oneself stronger. Therefore, compared to the game, he is more excited every time he gains experience.

He could clearly feel that he was growing up bit by bit from each battle.

He was immersed in his own thoughts, but saw the business lady running over like a treasure, holding something carefully in both hands to show Brando. The equipment they found before was identified by Brando. Young people can tell what it is, where it came from, how it was activated, and whether it is magical, just by looking at it.

So at this time Brando has become synonymous with omnipotence in Roman's mind.

"Brando, are you looking for this?" She held the card and asked carefully.

Brando looked down her hand, the pattern of the card was gray, with a knight on a tall horse and his servants in robes drawn on it, and the color of the card happened to be the same as his holy sword card background color. Brando immediately realized that this was the card he was looking for, and he took it over to take a look—sure enough!

Highland retinue

(Knight IX)

water element 1

[Biology—human/scholar, level 8 creature]

When the highland squire enters the arena, it provides reputation 1 every week.

Maintenance cost: Every time this card is maintained on the field, an additional water element 1 will be paid.

'Highland Courage'

This one is a summoning card. Brando guessed even at this moment of bluntness. This highland squire is a scholar by profession, but the following card description is the courage of the plateau—presumably it must be the apprentice squire of the Karasu Plateau, and the wizards and knights of Karasu have been allied with each other for two centuries.

Level 8 scholar, talk about whether he is strong or not. But it is a great help when used well at critical moments. He couldn't help looking at Roman who was looking at him expectantly, smiled and said, "Thank you, this is very useful to me."

"You're welcome." The merchant lady said happily.

But at this time, Freya ran back from the north alone, and said with a worried face: "Brando, Roman, I saw the coneworm seems to be coming from the north, should we avoid it?"

"Stone worm?" Brando was taken aback. He wanted everyone to take a break, but he didn't expect the stone worm to come so fast. Although the stone trypanosomes may not necessarily attack them, in this case most people will choose a safe method.

He nodded: "You guys go first, I'll make arrangements to prevent that thing from catching up."

Stone cone worms use magical sense of smell and tremor sense to orient their prey, so stray magic items can be used to attract their attention. Brando waited for Roman and Freya to leave, took out the bottle of No. 5 holy water, made a hole in the bottom with the thorn of Zhanguang, and put it in the crevice of the rock on the side, and then he glanced left and right to confirm that there was nothing missing After that, he retreated to the west alone.

He thought that because of the previous magical echo, maybe Madara would send a small team here to investigate the situation. But when the time comes, the cone worms who stay here will teach those skeletons an unforgettable lesson, and it can be regarded as revenge for the Bresen group.

***********

The time is June, the year of flowers and summer leaves, and history is developing in an orderly manner as Brando knows.

The secret envoy of Madara arrived at Winterclaw Castle, and King Obergow VI of Eruin accepted the suggestion of Marquis Kruger of Jinghua to refuse to meet the envoy, so the first Black Rose War soon entered the second stage.

On the frontal battlefield, the province of Karasu is facing a serious threat from Madara's "Winter Solstice" and "Black Crow" legions. Grand Duke Ogugin even sent a messenger to cry that if he does not get support in the short term, his morale will be damaged. will face total collapse.

Meanwhile, farther north, between the mountains where the Kellman Mountains meet the sea, an army of undead is advancing secretly and lightly.

In the Golan-Elsen province in the south, the Instaron army is attacking Vanmeer Fortress day after day. But the flanks of the Butch area fell into a strange dead silence. Commander Earl Pula sent a letter to the 104th Swordsman Regiment stationed in Riedenburg, and the last reply he got was:

"everything is fine."

The time is June 1st.

At this time, Brando and Freya were passing through the secret passage under the Forbidden Orchard, hurrying to go to Riddenburg every second. In fact, they have found traces of undead activities along the way, but the scale is very small, and it looks more like undead scouts approaching the direction of Riddenburg.

This made the atmosphere in the team tense. They were one step ahead of Madara's main force, but no one could say how big this step was.

At midnight on this day, Brando took Freya and Roman through the last section of Xavier Mountain Road. When they broke through the jungle and arrived at a small hill called Mount Fendeck in the south of Riedenburg, facing the night mountain wind, the boundless Usong Valley formed by the confluence of the Usson River and the Wechsler River was already in front of them. And the lights of Riedenburg are like a bright gem embedded in the darkness, lying quietly under the valley a few miles away, lighting up the entire riverside along the coast.

Seeing this scene, Freya and the business lady held their breath a little. They kept wondering what kind of place Rittenburg was, but they didn't expect that the spark of civilization in the dark could be so beautiful.

But at this time, the business lady poked Brando on the back and whispered, "Brando, we have an army behind us."

"army?"

"Well, look north from here. In the valley we passed in the afternoon. See it?"

"It's more than ten miles away. It's so dark, how can you see clearly! My eldest lady, don't joke with me at this time!" Brando was taken aback, and then said angrily.

"But I saw it."
