Scene 350 Under the Abyss X

"I know, Your Royal Highness, listen to me, I won't take my life as a joke. But I have a plan, maybe I can try it." Brando is eager to try anything with a unique player Said intonation. Princess Griffin frowned and looked at him, "Really?"

In Brando's eyes, the half-elf princess's skeptical look is really cute, and she has a girlish attitude that was rarely seen in her. He nodded, "Of course, if we can sneak around Qiao Gendigang's nose, why don't we find a way to dismantle the Flame Door?"

"Let's not talk about whether we can destroy the Flame Door, but you really believe that they can really lead us to hide from George Gorendigan's army? Mr. Brando, they are witches, and they are best at using words to confuse people." Her Royal Highness She didn't hide her wariness at all, but this time she was on Brando's side, and there was an obvious expectation in her bright silver eyes that she didn't want Brando to take risks.

"His Royal Highness Corcova, I became a witch when your grandfather Oberg was still on the throne. Witches know that their words will be overheard by ravens, so they are cautious in their words and deeds. Compared with The aristocrats talk about each other, but you still have a lot of trust in them." Babasa grinned, like an old crow, she replied in a hoarse voice.

"Bold people of darkness, who will allow you to call the first name of the former king!" Her Royal Highness the Princess coldly reprimanded, with a soft clank, the narrow, long and bright sword edge trembled slightly in the darkness.

Brando quickly pressed her hand, "Babasha."

"I made a slip of the tongue, Lord Lord." The old witch glanced at Princess Griffin with eyes that were as cold as wood beads and lost their luster.

"Babasha, the princess is not wrong. You are the best at manipulating people's hearts. Although witches never lie, they will leave a back door. I want you to swear to the Goddess of the Pillar of Hell that you will not betray me. You can do it ?” Brando pressed Griffin's hand with one hand, turned back and asked coldly.

Babasha bent down deeply, and said with some awe, "The lord really understands everything. We would like to swear to the goddess of the Purgatory Pillar, and we swear not to betray the lord of Tonigel, Brando our master. Disobedience, blind and lame Dias dragged us into the abyss"

Princess Griffin saw Babasha put her hand on her heart, and she had vaguely heard of the witch's oath directed at the heart. However, she realized that this oath seemed to be extremely terrifying to the other party. When she said the last sentence, the old hag even trembled slightly. She knew little about witches, and it was hard to believe that these cunning women would take an oath so seriously, so she looked at Brando puzzled.

Silver eyes seemed to seek an answer.

"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness, they won't deceive us now." Brando took off the sword in her hand while she was not paying attention, and gently put it back into the other's scabbard, and replied at the same time: "The sword of the pillar The goddess Modesty is their belief. Legend has it that Modeste was the first witch to steal black magic from the sea of ​​magic. She passed such spells to the first generation of prophets of the twelve witches, but later she was killed by the devil They caught her naked body and impaled her naked body on a pillar in the hell of iron thorns. She was tortured forever. The blind and lame Dias was her first student. She was obsessed with darkness and became a monster. The witch will be dragged into the eternal darkness by Dias who climbed out of the abyss. This is not a legend, but a real thing. Falling into complete darkness and losing five senses is the most terrible punishment for a witch. .Babasa having made such an oath,

It will never be cheated. "

Seeing Her Royal Highness's still puzzled expression, Brando added: "These are the secret knowledge of witches, and few outsiders know about it."

"Then how do you know?"

Good question, Brando didn't expect Her Royal Highness to keep her mind clear at this time, and quickly found a reason: "Because you also know that I have read about wizards, and they are as old as witches. , although they are not enemies, they are at least competitors, and they know each other's secrets more or less."

Princess Griffin was skeptical. She turned her head, "Then how sure is she that we will not be discovered? If it is only relying on the witch's spell, I don't think the commanders of Qiaogendigan will be immune to this. I have heard that Qiaogendigan's There are more witches underground. So whether they are enemies or allies, they will not be unaware of the means of witches, will they?"

Brando once again felt the calmness of the half-elf princess. In fact, he also thought of this question. He knows well. Make judgments based on only a small amount of knowledge, and compare them with each other.

He also looked back at Babasha, hoping for an answer. His plan is still just an idea, but whether it can be implemented or not requires more details. No victory in a war is won by patting the head, and he knows this very well.

"Compared to that stupid grandfather of yours, Her Majesty the Princess is obviously much smarter, and the facts are similar to what you guessed." Babasha mentioned King Oberg VI again, and the half-elf girl pursed her lips to suppress her anger , Witches are so dismissive of secular power, in fact, this is one of the reasons why they are rejected by the secular world. What puzzled her was that the old witch was very respectful to Brando, and she didn't know what kind of help Brando had helped them. She heard Babasha continue: "But apart from spells, we also There are some secret knowledge passed down by witches from generation to generation. One of these secrets mentions that there is a hall under Ampersel that has been abandoned since ancient times. This hall is hidden between the gaps in the fjord and leads to the port. Among the hills to the north."

"It's impossible," she finally couldn't help saying: "It has been nearly seven centuries since the former king Eck built the port of Ambersea here. Whether the foundation of Le Great Temple is loose or not, the Amperesel people have explored the terrain around the port and underground more than once, but there have never been any rumors about ancient ruins."

"But Her Royal Highness also has to admit that long before the Eruins built the port, this place was no longer a land of no one. Apart from the silver elves, other civilizations have thrived here. The secret is a secret. Just because it's unknown." Babasa laughed.

"I remembered, are you talking about the ancient channel with water seepage?" Brando remembered that there was such an ancient ruin near Amperesel, but it had been weathered for a long time, leaving behind a path passing through the underground cliff It's just a passage in between. There is a spider mother who has lived for an unknown number of years, and it is a level 57 b.

To be honest, he wouldn't want to mess with that thing at all if he could. In the narrow terrain, a giant spider mother with the strength of the side of truth, coupled with her countless descendants and ubiquitous spider webs, Brando is horrified to think about it.

The point is that he has never heard that the ancient passage can lead to the hills to the north of Amperesel. He only knows that one side of the ancient passage goes deep into the mountains of Alec.

"My lord, we actually don't know what's going on under that hall." Hearing what Brando said, Babasha was even more certain of his identity. Everything was as predicted in the prophecy, and the witch's secret was like a big open book in his eyes, which could be read at will. "But since the lord also knows about this passage, it means that it must exist."

Princess Griffin also believed this time, because Brando would definitely not lie to her. She turned around: "Brando, is what she said true?"

"I've heard of such an ancient passage," Brando said with sweat on his forehead, and almost revealed his secret again by accident. He couldn't help but secretly scolded Babasha and these old witches for using a so-called witch's secret to deceive him. "But can this passage really lead to the hills north of Ampersel?...Well, this is not mentioned in the wizard's literature." Brando feels that if this goes on, the information on the previous forum will really become a wizard. literature library.

"This is a secret that we have passed down from generation to generation. Naturally, there will be no mistakes. This tunnel connects the mountains on one side and leads to the hills in the north on the other."

"That should be right, and it can basically be printed with what I know." Brando confirmed immediately that there might be a secret passage under the ancient passage. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become very curious. In the past, because of the proximity to Amperesel, there were quite a few players who explored this ancient passage, and none of them discovered this other secret passage in decades.

You must know that it is impossible to set up a secret passage inexplicably in the game, there must be corresponding benefits in it. Thinking of this, Brando's heart burned with raging anticipation. There are too few secrets that have not been explored and discovered in the Land of Order in the Amber Sword.

I didn't expect to meet him today.

He raised his head, "Babasha, if I remember correctly. The entrance to the underground passage should be some distance away from here, right?"

"Yes, my lord." Babasha replied respectfully, "The entrance should be on the east side of Jean Ding's Manor at the foot of the mountain."

"Who has a map?"

"I have," Earl Odin immediately took a wooden cylinder from his waist, opened the stopper, and took out a roll of waterproof parchment map. The accompanying knight then spread it out, and the parchment map spread on the ground was almost half the size of a human being, and it was the entire map of the area around Ampersel.

This kind of high-precision map is not common in this era. Even in the military, it is the most important and highly confidential, and it is worth tens of thousands of dollars if it is sold on the black market. Back then, the players didn't have such awesome things in their hands. Brando didn't expect Odin to carry such a thing with him, and couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect Earl Odin to carry such a good thing with him. Be well prepared."

Earl Odin looked at Princess Griffin with some embarrassment: "His Royal Highness asked the old minister to take it."

Brando immediately glanced at the half-elf girl beside her, but unfortunately Her Royal Highness didn't have much expression on her face, and even frowned slightly. He couldn't help but sighed and looked at the map. On the map, there is a place called Silver Spire Hill to the east of Jean Ding's foothill manor. If he remembers correctly, the secret entrance to the ancient passage should be near there. "

But before that there is a problem.

"If I remember correctly, the secret entrance to the ancient passage should have been sealed by ancient magic. Can you find a way to open that seal?" Brando looked up at Babasa.

"Naturally, the one who closed the ancient passage is actually the witch, my lord." Babasha replied a little proudly. She does have something to be proud of. Witches have a very long heritage in Warnd. They used to follow the Dark Dragon and hold a lot of dark secrets and history that are unknown. "Opening the secret door requires a ceremony, and only twenty people can pass through it at a time. However, once you pass through that passage, whether you go north to the hills north of Amperesel or go south to the mountains of Alek, the lord will The grown-ups decide for themselves."

"That is to say, no matter what, we must enter that ancient passage?" Princess Griffin asked.

"Almost, unless we are willing to fight a bloody road, but I'm afraid the hope is slim," Brando said. But Princess Griffin still frowned, "But they don't know what's going on under the ancient tunnel, and whether there will be any danger down there is also an uncertain thing."

"In any case, it's better than sitting still and waiting to die," Brando added boldly: "Besides, I know what's down there, at least 80% sure. Please believe me, Your Royal Highness."

Her Royal Highness glanced at him, and finally nodded: "Okay, I believe you."

"One more thing." At this moment, Earl Odin said suddenly. Under the gaze of everyone, he came up and pointed to a dot on the parchment map, and the map was covered with water in just a short while, saying: "We still have a long way to go from here to that place, we just saw at least There are more than one Georgian army entering the forest, if we go in this direction, will we hit them head-on?"

Brando looked at the map and frowned deeply. He knew that Earl Odin's words were true. He had seen sparks outside the port of Ampersel with his own eyes on the top of the mountain before. It was probably the light of lava and torches. If they continue going north like this, there is a great chance of bumping into each other, not to mention there are countless harpies above their heads.

He pursed his lips tightly, frowned and exchanged glances with His Highness the Princess. Both saw the same meaning in the other's eyes:

"We need to ask for help"
