The Amber Sword

Scene 297 News From the North

As precious auction items were auctioned off one by one, the auction was gradually coming to an end. ∮E∮Novel∮.com, www.exiao shuo.C∮O∮M∮Brando bought a piece of pure gold worth 300,000 tor, which is one of the main materials of all-steel armor. Jin, together with the relics of the white knight Alberton and part of Amman's life savings, he will soon be able to start making this armor. Princess Magdal, a nun, also took a symbolic photo of a silver ornament from the wind elves and gave it to Antitina as a gift.

The last auction item at the auction was a round shield handed down from the Kanov Dynasty of the Cruz Empire, but the two of them were not thinking about it at all. Brando and Her Royal Highness the Princess of Antobro Principality quickly reached a final agreement, and then the two left the box early.

Magdal must return to the temple immediately to avoid suspicion. After that, she has to find a way to find out the true intention of the Temple of Fire. What is the shady relationship between the new high priest of Meros and the nobles of Aruin? deeds.

And Brando was quite satisfied with this meeting. Although he didn't get much information, at least he had a solid ally inside the temple, and he also understood the attitude of the Cruz people. Brando trusts Princess Magdal very much. In another history, she was famous for being upright and kind, and even known as "the heart is more important than the outside." You must know that Princess Magdal is not an ugly monster, she Her beauty is not even inferior to that of Griffin, who is a half-elf, and is called the human "Queen Ain Ess" (the elf queen who was active in an era after the War of the Saints, known for her beauty).

Brando asked Antitina to stay with the auctioneer to settle the auction proceeds and help him get the fine gold that he bought, but he left the auction venue and stopped a carriage at the door, saying, "No. 74, Scorpion Shell Street!" The carriage Leaving San Pino [Plaza] soon, passing through a winding alley - even in a prosperous trading port like Amperesel, there are slums under the floating money, and the carriage is parked in a shed in the suburbs Stopping in the middle of the area, the houses in this area have already been bought by Su, and Brando walked straight to a house that backs on Ambersea Bay. Just as he reached the door, the dusty wooden door creaked open .

Behind her was a feminine face, but there were fins on the chin and ears, and her skin was like sapphire. She looked at Brando with her pale yellow prismatic pupils with a vigilant look. "Lenders, hello." Brando responded with a slight smile. This is a female flash-scale Naga named Lendess. Lendos nodded, and then stepped aside to let Brando in.

"My lord." There were two male Shanlin Naga in the room, one of them was Sanir. It was injured a few days ago in a battle with other clans, and could no longer be on the battlefield for a short time, so it was called to act as a liaison officer for the newly promoted lord of Tonigel. Now Brando is the most important 'friend' of Shinlin Naga. It is one aspect to cure Her Royal Highness with No. 1 holy water, but the main reason is that the shrewd Queen Cold Dew values ​​Brando's potential strength more ——A person who can casually take out No. 1 holy water is not too much in the human world. 『≤E』≤Novel『≤Net,www.exiaosh uo.COM≤

But it wasn't these Nagas who spoke first,

It was Su standing behind them. The innkeeper's daughter had a worried look on her face, as if something terrible had happened: "My lord, something happened."

"Huh?" Brando was slightly stunned, thinking that he had only been away for a few hours, what could happen during this time, could it be that the nobles were put under house arrest by Her Royal Highness Princess Griffin? "What's going on? Did something happen to the princess?" He couldn't help frowning and asked.

Su shook his head and took out a letter. Brando took a look at the letter, and his face immediately became weird. Before, he had asked Su to find a way to collect news from the north, so as to confirm what caused the change in the attitude of the Temple of Fire, and what was written in this letter was exactly such news—it was written that Torquinin's gold The Mane Lion had knocked on the gate three days ago, and the Temple of the Earth had already mobilized for war half a month ago, which means that it was completely different from history. The Temple of the Earth started the war about three months earlier. , the reason is because... uh, the Temple of the Earth requested the Temple of Fire, and the Eruin Kingdom to return their long-lost holy sword... the sword of the earth, Harangoya.

"..."

"Ha..." Brando held the piece of paper, not knowing what to say for a while. He thought about it and didn't know why the temple would change its attitude towards the Eruin royal family. He didn't expect the reason to be so simple, just because the earth temple started the war in advance. In the final analysis, it turned out to be because of him.

"How did this news come in?"

"It was the news from an informant I arranged in the north. The letter was sent in through Naga. Now Ampersel has blocked the entrance and exit roads on the grounds that the monsoon season is coming. No news from outside can come in." The tanned girl answered logically.

Brando glanced at Sanir, thinking that this guy must have brought in the letter.

"Is the person who got the news reliable?"

"It's not reliable, it's just doing things with money, but passing the news should be enough."

Brando nodded. The news that the lions started the war in advance should have been known to everyone in the north, but Ampersel, who had been blocked from the news, hadn't gotten the news for a while. ∮E∮Novel∮Network, www.exiaoshuo.C∮O∮M∮

Now the situation is serious. The war between the Temple of Fire and the Temple of the Earth is just a small episode in the history of Eruin's late period, but it is not the case for the Cruz people. The impact of this holy war on the players of the Cruz Empire It is no less powerful than the War of the Black Roses for Aruin, especially for the Cruz people. This is a religious war, and the Temple of Fire will definitely go all out, especially in the Eruin War as an outpost. It seems that the Temple of Fire is determined to maintain stability.

Even with strong measures——

This is great news for the nobles in the north, but it is bad news for Princess Brando. "My lord, what should we do now?" The innkeeper's daughter didn't know the nuances, but she also knew that it was not good news. She had at least heard of the recent change in the Temple's attitude.

"Her Royal Highness must have been placed under house arrest. Now the Temple of Flame will definitely not allow her to leave Ambethel. They will force Anleke to make a statement. The next time the nobles reconcile the royal party will be in danger." Brando thought for a while one time. Wang Dang should also get the news at this time, maybe earlier than him, Wang Dang will only have more informants in the north. Although they do not have Naga under their command, they must have the means to pass the information into Ampere Sear. It's just that if even Anleke turns against him, Her Royal Highness should be in a desperate situation right now, and it's even a question of whether she can leave safely.

He suddenly turned around and asked, "Where is Roman?"

"Miss Roman has gone to the trade zone. There are quite a few chambers of commerce that have relations with us in Amperexel. She said that she wants to get in touch with the leaders of these chambers of commerce. The war is about to break out, and the market will inevitably fluctuate. Miss Roman is worried that Therefore, it affects the livelihood of the territory." Su seemed to be about to talk about this matter.

"She's alone?" Brando frowned. Did he know that those big businessmen were glamorous on the surface, but they were not good people behind the scenes.

"Cy went too." Su glanced at him and replied.

Brando nodded. After being endowed with the blood of the dragon, Akane now has the strength of the peak of gold. In terms of strength alone, he is not even an opponent. With her on the side, the safety of the business lady can be assured. "When they come back, tell them not to go out again, and let everyone leave the hotel and gather here."

Su nodded, slightly frowning. Has the situation gotten this tense? She knew part of Brando's plan, so everyone gathered to explain that the nobles and the situation at the meeting were irreversible, and the next step was to intervene by force. But to be honest, the strength of the Tonigel collar is insignificant on this huge chess game.

"Sue, do you have any questions?"

"I have no problem." Su shook his head, letting go of any unhappiness in his heart.

Brando was suddenly a little silent, and he suddenly thought that it was a bit selfish for him to bring these people into the vortex of this political struggle. Su is the daughter of the innkeeper, Roman dreams of becoming a big businessman, Freya wants to help the residents of Butch, Akane just wants to gain the approval of others wholeheartedly, and the veterans of the Copper Dragon, Tonig The fate of the Royal Party and Princess Griffin actually had nothing to do with them. They are here now, but because of one of his thoughts.

Why did they pay so much for the rise and fall of the royal family and change the fate of a princess, even at the cost of their lives. Unlike the deep-rooted prejudices of the royal party and nobles, in Brando's view, there is no distinction between people and people. Even the life of a princess is not necessarily more noble than a beggar.

Princess Griffin's weight in his heart is not because she will become the regent of this kingdom in the future, Her Royal Highness the Princess Princess, but because he can't forget the precious memories of the past, with his companions, with the Valkyrie, with Qianqian The days when people with the same beliefs fought side by side, but this memory does not exist for others, not even Freya.

His purpose is inherently selfish, but there are certain things he must do because he knows the result.

"Su, do you believe me?" Brando asked suddenly.

The dark-skinned girl looked up at him suspiciously.

"What we are doing now may not necessarily be successful, but it will definitely be right. If we do it, we may fail, but if we don't, we will definitely not succeed. Nobles can't save Aruin, but they can't get peace in a corner life." Brando thought of the second Black Rose War that would inevitably happen in the future, the kingdom was burning in the flames of war, and the moderate reforms could not save Aruin.

If he doesn't let go, history will repeat itself sooner or later.

Su lowered his eyelids: "I don't understand, but Miss Freya chooses to believe in you, my lord. Burying your head in the sand can only deceive yourself. Your lord wants to say this, right?" She smiled: "Actually, it doesn't matter to me, My father’s opinion is my opinion, he chose to believe in you—Lord Lord, not because of some great principles, but because you have never failed so far, sir.”

"If you fail, everything ends here. If you succeed, you can keep going. Does that mean?" It seems that it is true. He only has one chance and can't choose. If he can't succeed, he must at least fail vigorously once. Because even if you don't do it, you will fail.

He nodded, relieved.

He turned around: "Sanir, then please help us attack the port according to the scheduled plan. I will provide you with the details of the location and defense of the warehouses of the Chamber of Commerce in the dock area and the Amperesel Navy. The looted goods can all be used as Your spoils... but please minimize civilian casualties if you can."

"We are not bloodthirsty villains." Sanier snorted angrily: "There are detailed defenses, and we will try to avoid civilians as much as possible, but the map you gave us is fine? The layout and defense of Ampere Sear They are all in the hands of the Temple of Flame, can you get them?"

Brando smiled mysteriously. Of course he couldn't get it, and he didn't need it. He already knew the layout and fortifications of Ampersel well after decades of experience in another history. "Don't worry, there won't be too many navies staying at the pier that day, and I will create conditions for you." Apart from a few warships of the Port Authority, Amperesel's navy is mainly monks from the temple. Brando at least Confidently lead those monks away.

Besides, the storm at sea was approaching, and the temple would never have thought that the attack would come from the sea anyway.

"By the way," he suddenly thought of one thing: "Please use the Sea Demon Whale again." He mainly wanted to use the Sea Demon Whale to cover his retreat. 〗The special effect of suppressing the storm, when the time comes to retreat from the sea, just passing through the storm-ravaged sea area, Brando doesn't want to escape from Amperesel with great difficulty and be buried in the belly of the fish.

Sanir hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. Brando has been very kind to the Flashscale family, and this time it is right to return the favor. In addition, the Shinlin Naga suffered a lot in the West Sea War, and Brando's proposal to create opportunities for them to plunder the warehouses of the Amperesel Navy and Chamber of Commerce is also a condition they cannot refuse. Ampere Sear is the largest trading port in Aruin and the entire southern border. If it can get to the bottom of the Ampere Sear Navy this time, almost all the losses of the Shinlin Naga in this war can be made up.

"Thank you so much." Brando is really a little surprised now. The relationship with Shinlin Naga is just an unintentional move on the way to Ampersel this time. I didn't expect the unintentional move to become this. The most critical part of the success of a trip to Ambersea.

"Mutual benefit and reciprocity." Sanier is still as dull as in history, and he will write off the favor owed by Brando with a single sentence. If the shrewd Queen Cold Dew finds out, he will be punished to go to the abyss of the deep sea for labor reform.

And next, Brando decided to meet the half-elf girl again.
