Scene 335 The Battle of Holy White XIX
From the Creation Epic "Poem of Cang" by the Cruz people, the four kings of elves and their subordinate elements are all guardians of this world. However, this agreement is only limited to between them and Martha. These elements are violent and furious. Rarely can one live in peace with them, as now—
After the lightning cage failed to work, Adgar the Rage jumped directly into the third stage, and Brando was shocked when he saw this. Immediately lost the mood to watch the play, he turned his head and shouted: "Her Royal Highness, please immediately order all the teams to retreat to the southern foot of Angerke Mountain!"
Everyone didn't know what to do, but suddenly there was a muffled sound from the ground, like the roar of a building collapsing. They looked up, and saw countless furious whirlwind elements gushing out from under the ruins of the temple from the crack where Adgar was, and at the same time, purple-black thunderclouds surged in the sky, and began to rain down patches of lightning storms .
That scene is like the scene described in the Black Prophecy Book, "The Last Judgment", "there is a doomsday scene between the heaven and the earth, electricity and fire descend from the clouds, and the knights at dusk ride among the fire and rain, and then burn to death." do everything'. Everyone was pale, and Earl Odin's private soldiers were even more frightened, and Her Royal Highness lost all color on her face, but she calmed down a little, and immediately issued an order: "Earl Odin, Wangli Knight Academy The non-commissioned officers ask you to retreat to the direction of Mount Anger immediately, Mr. Brando, you lead our Na allies to retreat together."
Brando looked back at the scene of the earth-shattering that day. He was probably the only one among the people present who didn't feel scared, but felt that this scene was so familiar. The player's desire for exploration and adventure is burning in his blood. He turned his head again and added: "And remember not to leave the range of this valley!"
Princess Griffin glanced at him and nodded seriously.
In fact, there is no need for an order, the Southern Legion Dragon Cavalry in the sky above the battlefield has already begun to retreat. After everyone enters the forest. The last one to leave was the Gray Fin Naga. When the sea demon Bridget passed by Brando, he glanced at him with beautiful bright yellow eyes, and said in a rustling voice: "You are not an excellent commander, but you are an excellent commander." prophet."
Brando's heart skipped a beat. looked at her in bewilderment.
"Don't be surprised, the water tells me everything." The sea monster Brigitte saluted him, and then slid into the forest with her long blade. The long tail is like a snake.
"What did she tell you?" Sanir also followed, and asked curiously; the sea monster Bridget has a high status in Grayfin Naga, and it has never seen her coloring that male creature. ——It doesn’t matter if the other party is Naga. Or human.
"She said I was a magic stick, do you think I look like it?" Brando turned around and smiled.
Sanir thought about it, and replied seriously: "I think it looks a bit like it."
It is indeed very similar,
So that Princess Griffin waited until everyone went up the mountain, and then took a step behind and waited until Brando finally came up. She stared at the man carefully with her silver eyes, and then asked, "Mr. Brando, did you already know that the ruins of the underground temple in Marr Heights seal this monster?"
What she asked was exactly the question in everyone's mind. If it weren't for that, it wouldn't explain why he tried his best to fight the Northern Allied Forces here. What's more, he was also the one who ordered the production of disintegrating crystals. He ordered a group of lizardmen to transport a large number of crystals underground.
By the way. The passage leading to the underground was also discovered by Brando.
Too many coincidences to be no coincidence.
Brando knew he couldn't hide it, so he nodded, "Yes," a black wolf the size of a pony passed by him and rubbed his head affectionately on his shoulder. Brando touched its furry forehead. The pack of wolves was walking past the two of them. Her Royal Highness had only heard of such a strange sight in legends and stories, and she couldn't help holding her breath when experiencing it for herself.
"On the Alek Plateau used to be the holy land of the silver elves, and many secrets are buried here. This temple is one of them, and the other is near Faol, and the ruins of that one are much larger than this one. The ancient war made many The history is buried underground. But these histories are still recorded in the ancient offerings of the wizards." Brando replied.
Her Royal Highness was silent for a while, she already knew that Brando knew many secrets that ordinary people did not know. But no one knows how he mastered this knowledge, as if he was born with knowledge, omniscient and omnipotent.
She thought for a moment and asked: "Mr. Brando... No, the descendant of Lord Juggernaut. You said that you knew nothing about your grandfather's deeds, and your experience seems to us like a legend; you Overcoming unimaginable hardships and difficulties, we have come to this point. We all know that your future is limitless. If you want, status, power, and even... women are all within your reach, but what do you want? Choose to help me?"
She didn't ask a subtext. Looking back today, it is not difficult to find that Brando's every move since leaving Lidenberg was prepared today. He unabashedly expressed his affection for her, the faction of Her Majesty the Princess of Arouin, and unconditionally helped the Corcova royal family in their most difficult time.
If Brando came here following the behest of Juggernaut Darus, she might not be surprised. But it is not. Brando's legend is his own epic, and he doesn't even know that his grandfather is the famous sword master in Eruin's history.
Princess Griffin never believed that there would be love for no reason in this world, just like there would be no hate for no reason.
Still asking this question. Brando scratched his head, it's not that he hadn't thought about this question, and it was indeed difficult for him to answer this question. It can't be said that the love and hate of the previous life have continued to this soul, making it unforgettable?
"Uh...probably because some people are naturally worthy of help. Besides, Her Royal Highness is so beautiful, isn't she worthy of help?"
"Mr. Brando intends to use this answer to perfuse everyone. I think even your subordinates need a reason?" Griffin asked calmly.
This really hit Brando's deathbed. He turned around. He noticed that Caglis and Antitina were quietly paying attention to the movement here. Indeed, what he did in the past could make the people gathered around him not ask the reason. Because they believed that he could lead them to perform miracles.
But it will take more than a miracle to save an aging kingdom, and one day they will need a common goal.
"...Actually, I don't understand, Your Royal Highness. But I think the kingdom has also been revived, but it was fleeting. One or two strong people will not be able to change history in the end. Perhaps what the kingdom needs is not just strong power, but such What purpose does the power serve."
"Is it determined to eradicate everything wrong in this kingdom, or just to maintain its corrupt rule. Don't you already have an answer in your heart, Your Highness? And your answer is exactly my answer." Brando replied slowly.
He closed his eyes, and others thought he was talking about the second restoration of the kingdom. But what Brando said was actually Aruin's last wish. It was the last great drama of the kingdom, and it came to a regrettable conclusion.
Princess Griffin stared blankly at Brando and clenched her fists. In fact, she had already thought of this answer in her heart. But she closed her eyes, trying not to shed tears from her excitement.
She wants to maintain the rule of this kingdom.
It's not that the Incorcova royal family has to last forever. It is to inherit the ideals of the former king and himself, and to reproduce the most glorious era in the history of Eruin. But her glory does not belong to the nobles, but to the whole kingdom, everyone. Even if the Corkova royal family no longer maintains its rule, she wants the glory of the Holy White not to fade.
From then on, Eruin will shine as a country in the history of Warnd. Rather than the vassal and stage of the nobles. Just like the oath promised by the first emperor Eke on this land- what the Lionheart Sword promises is not that the rule of this land will last forever, but that the glory belongs to the Eruin people.
Until that moment, this ancient country will become stronger from the inside out, full of new life and vitality.
Brando looked at this weak girl silently—she had never had a companion in history—even except for a few players, no one knew the true ideal of Her Royal Highness. Even the nobles who supported her didn't understand what her persistence was.
In order to gain the support of the royal party and Duke Anleke, she had to compromise again and again. Some players even slandered her as a political whore—but she had to remain aristocratic in order to maintain her most basic requirements for that ultimate goal.
It's just that the development of history is often not always as expected, and this is where the tragedy of Her Royal Highness lies.
She had to go against her ideal again and again. Although I tried my best to make up for it, it was ultimately irreparable. When she finally decided to let go of the past and move forward with all her heart, the rising nobles and royal party who supported her immediately abandoned her.
But maybe she should jump out of this old thinking in the first place and win the help of people who should really support her. But after all, she is a princess who grew up in the royal family, and she is deeply afraid of the deep-rooted power of the nobles.
But finally there was someone standing behind her.
Brando thought silently, maybe this is a change. Let her understand that what she can rely on is not just the nobles of the kingdom. There are more people in this ancient kingdom who want to change, such as Freya, Antitina, and even the descendants of nobles like Caglis , It's just that they can't explain it, and they can't see through the fog of history.
But he can see through everything in the future at a glance. There is no need to even guess, history and the future are within his reach. Brando understands what is right and what is wrong.
The nobles of the North were obsessed with the power of the past, and all their efforts were to perpetuate the present. But there are those who are determined to undo the evils of the past, and understand that this ancient kingdom must be reborn on its ashes.
He turned his head and saw Kaglis winking at him not far away while lying on a simple stretcher. And Antitina smiled and nodded to him, as if relieved.
Princess Griffin also took a deep breath.
She couldn't help looking over Brando's shoulders, and she sighed softly as she reflected the sight of Adgar of the River Valley raging in the northern coalition forces in her silver eyes.
"Thank you, Mr. Brando."
"Although the Eruin people still inevitably kill each other, after losing half of the Black Blade Legion. The nobles in the north will reconsider their position. If the Temple of Fire does not want Eruin to fall into a long civil war , Maybe they will turn to compromise with us.”
"The kingdom must go through the pain of new birth, but it's better than slow bloodletting. Ampere Sear did his best in one battle. Mr. Brando changed the future of Eruin alone, and saved more Eruin people from the flames of war. , I thank you for this ancient kingdom."
She said this out of emotion, and the crisis of Amperesel seemed dangerous. But it also entails opportunity. The royal party, the northern nobles, including herself, were all looking for the key to breaking the situation, but the northern nobles took the lead, and the addition of the Temple of Fire was beyond her and the royal party's expectations. Seeing that the situation has been irreversible.
But at this moment, Brando changed the whole situation by himself.
She has seen many people, but the young man in front of her looks like a different kind. He has power, he has strength. But he couldn't see the usual sophistication and cunning of the nobles of the kingdom. Even she herself is inevitably branded like this—that's why she can use herself or others as a political bargaining chip without changing her face.
But Brando didn't have it, and she could understand it just by getting along with her for a short time. She couldn't understand that kind of free, unrestrained but firm temperament, which seemed ridiculously childish to the nobles, but maybe it was such a person who could change history.
Her Royal Highness looked much more relaxed.
But Brando shook his head, and had to beat her mood that had just gotten better: "Princess, I'm afraid it's not that simple. You think the Temple of Fire is too simple."
He is not alarmist, but has witnessed the greed and arrogance of those guys. The Eruins lost their honor, so why not the descendants of the King of Fire? It's just that the Cruz empire has a rich family, while Aruin is precarious.
Princess Griffin frowned slightly: "Mr. Brando, you mean that the Temple of Fire will tear up the sacred covenant and intervene in Eruin's civil war? This...impossible?"
Indeed, this is something that has never happened in millennia.
But today is different.
Brando knew that the coming of the great demon tide was just around the corner, and many prophecies contained words about this huge change. The Temple of Flame has a long tradition, so it is impossible to be unprepared for this. In fact, the ensuing jihad was just one part of a series of chain reactions brought about by this change.
The reason why the temple attaches so much importance to this jihad is precisely because of this. They will definitely not compromise with the vassal state at this time, let alone the fragments of the flame blade are still on him.
Although the Flame Blade is not a must, of course it is exciting to get the artifact, but there is more than one artifact in this world, so it is not worth paying for it.
But now he has no choice.
Inotales had told him. That thing has been bound to him. To put it simply, unless he is killed, the Flame Blade will belong to him.
It sounds wonderful, but it is actually dangerous.
Brando glanced at the princess and nodded. Her Royal Highness does not know that history is at the most critical moment of change, and it is understandable to make mistakes in judgment, not to mention that the Eruin kingdoms have been under the rule of the Temple for centuries, and no one will dare to underestimate the majesty of the Temple .
Princess Griffin fell silent for a while, and she didn't know how she should resist if the temple intervened. Although there is still the Temple of the Queen of Wind-the wind elves of St. Osor will never make a move as long as the Cruz people do not try to annex Aruin.
She couldn't help biting her lips tightly, and before she knew it, traces of blood came out of her lower lip.
But Brando looked up.
The sky was cloudy, and Adgar of the river valley below was fighting with the Northern Allied Forces. But at this time, Brando felt an unusual breath coming from the sky.
It was as if a stone had been dropped from the surface of a calm lake, causing circles of ripples on the entire battlefield.
"Brando, that's the portal reaction." Otales' voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
"I know." Brando nodded.
He is too familiar. On the battlefield of Warnd in the future, group teleportation is almost one of the most commonly used tactics. When a large-scale teleportation gate is opened, it is often the most shocking scene on the battlefield.
But this time the teleportation in the sky made Brando feel palpitations.
That's...the door of fire.
...
On the outer sea of Amperesel, there is already a world of water between the sky and the earth at this moment.
A quiet fleet docked quietly above the sea off the Holy White Bay, and the Royal Navy sergeants on the flagship of the first-class battleship "Victory" of the Eruin Royal Fleet lined up under the heavy rain, as if waiting for inspection.
A clear cry came from the distant sky, piercing the rain curtain, and an Eruin sub-dragon revealed its figure from the rain by vibrating its wings. It approached the fleet in an instant, and then landed on the deck of the 'Victory'.
The flying dragon flapped its wings twice, and a person jumped off its back.
"Captain!" The non-commissioned officers immediately shouted in unison.
"Very good," Earl Yanilasu, Commander of the Royal First Fleet, glanced at his subordinates and replied seriously, "Bring me my coat."
"captain?"
"Amperesel has entered a state of war. Her Royal Highness has ordered that the First Fleet is ready to go."
Immediately there was a burst of excited cheers on the deck.
Earl Yanilasu raised his head, and the ship was already a busy scene. The core of the magical power began to charge and rotate, and several mages in silver robes also came to the magic rudder at the highest point of the "Victory" to take their positions.
"Location, Lord Earl." The first helmsman of the "Victory", the silver-robed mage "Silver Flame" David, raised his head and asked calmly after confirming that all the procedures for his apprentices were in place.
Earl Yanilasu turned his head and looked at the vast rain.
"The coordinates of the anchor point: 128, 22, the whole fleet is in place, the situation is level one. Activate the secret anchor point of Shengbai Bay, the plan code name is the battle of Shengbai, listen to my order, and prepare to jump."
