Act 11 Crystal Disease
Brando broke through the door with a sword, and the solid oak door turned into sawdust, like butterflies flying in the sky. His black earl's coat was like a rose blooming among the cracked planks. The petals stretched forward, and a cold sword blade pierced out from the center, pointing directly at the noble boy on the bed who was pressing the countess's neck with one hand.
Aker probably never dreamed that someone would suddenly break into the door. He was astonished and angrily shouted: "Damn Anurek, where are you!"
The next moment, a black shadow pierced straight from the horizon, but Brando had already guessed that there might be other people in the room when he heard the boy's roar, and subconsciously retracted the sword in his hand. With a sharp sound of 'ding', Brando felt that the sword of the earth was holding something. He narrowed his eyes slightly, only to see that it was a transparent long sword that shone with cold light like an ice crystal. sword.
"Get out!"
With a roar, the crystal sharp sword was pressing forward against the blade of the sword of the earth, and it was about to cut towards Brando's wrist. But when the sword of the earth moved forward, the majestic power was unleashed like a landslide and tsunami, and the crystal blade as thin as ice was immediately bounced away.
Brando felt the gray shadow recede, and then he saw the gray cloak of the sword-bearer hanging down to the floor. Under the hood, it looked like a nightmare, and the face could not be seen clearly due to the black smoke.
The ghost roared, both startled and angry in the sound of urgency. Probably never dreamed that the young human in front of him would have such terrifying power. He didn't know that Brando was equipped with a ghost knight crystal. The strength is inherently higher than that of the same realm, not to mention the golden peak at the age of twenty is a miracle in itself.
And Brando is the shaper of this miracle. He didn't intend to give the other party any chance at all. The long black coat was collected among the falling wood chips, and another black light struck at the strange man.
"Flash... the sword!"
The ghost hissed strangely, as if it recognized Brando's swordsmanship. It had already been swept back towards the head of the bed by Brando's sword. At this moment, he had to raise the crystal long sword to parry, but when the two swords intersected, there was only a palpitating breaking sound, and countless textures spread from the crystal in an instant.
Brando didn't say a word, and continued to move forward with the sword of the earth in his hand. The next moment, the shining blade in the hand of the gray-robed monster suddenly turned into countless fragments and exploded one after another.
The monster screamed, probably realizing the insurmountable gap between him and the young man. At the last moment when the blade was on the body, it raised its head and sent out a mental ripple that was almost detectable by the naked eye, piercing Brando's brain.
Mental shock.
The speed of the mental wave is extremely fast. The distance between the two is extremely close,
There was no time or space for Brando to dodge at all. This mental shock pierced directly into his thinking world the moment Brando just reacted.
It's a pity that this time the ghost obviously found the wrong target.
Brando's will attribute has reached a heinous number after being strengthened by the blood of God. After implanting the lightning core, it is even more against the sky. The resulting will barrier can even be immune to most spells, let alone What a mental shock.
The ghost hit Brando's will barrier with a mental shock, just like hitting a 1000mm thick steel plate. Brando felt that someone was spying on him in the field of will. He also couldn't help sneering in his heart, he watched coldly as if the mental wave had hit an invisible wall and was torn apart, and then the backlash was swept back at ten times the speed.
Brando glared at each other coldly.
The ghost suddenly let out a shrill scream, it hugged its head and shook wildly. But to no avail. Everyone present heard a crisp 'click', and then the monster's head exploded like a glass ball. …,
Brando yelled inwardly, he thought he would see the legendary scene where the brain burst and blood splashed all over the room. Of course he doesn't care about it himself, but don't forget that there are a few ladies here, maybe the name of his headshot maniac will spread throughout Ampere Sear that day.
But he didn't expect that the next moment he saw that the monster's head was really like a crystal ball, and pieces of crystal exploded, flying in all directions like blades, piercing the whole room at once.
Brando quickly turned on the conflict aura, and the crystal fragments jingled and smashed into the magic shield and flew in all directions, and finally did not end up being blown into a hornet's nest.
On the other side, the noble young man named Aker was not so lucky. He was watching the fight in the room with a face full of astonishment. Who would have thought that a face-to-face encounter with his subordinates would become a suicide attack, and countless crystal fragments When it exploded, he was almost completely in front of Del Ferry.
So the fate can be imagined.
The moment the crystal shards exploded, hundreds of sharp shards like steel needles pierced his entire body in an instant, cutting that handsome face into a thousand holes, and one even punctured his eyeballs. His right eye flowed out of the eye socket like a lump of rotten meat.
The blood-man-like Akeer seemed to be stunned for a moment before he realized it, and immediately he howled miserably on the bed with his face in his hands. The shrill cry was like that of an animal being sent to a slaughterhouse, which made people shudder.
Del Ferry, who was being pressed on the bed by him, did not know where it came from, and took the opportunity to push the guy away, struggling to jump off the bed. But she forgot that she couldn't walk at all, so she fell off the edge of the bed and hit the floor firmly. There was a muffled bang, and the countess burst into tears in pain.
Brando felt heartbroken for a while, and hurried over to pull Delfery up, and pulled her behind him. The Countess was pale and shivering. She even opened all the buttons on her chest, and she didn't even notice that the spring was leaking out. She didn't even have the strength to hold Brando's sleeve tightly. If Brando hadn't supported her, The girl would collapse on the floor at any moment.
"Are you okay?"
"Mr. Brando...I..." Del Ferry seemed to have experienced a nightmare, and the tears on his cheeks were still wet, but he couldn't say a word.
"Don't be afraid. I'm here." Brando comforted.
He looked at the bloody man crying on the bed—in fact, Aker had completely stained the bed sheet red, and some cloth strips stuck to his wounds, and opened new wounds. Make more blood flow from the wound. Soon the guy lost his strength and screamed. He was shaking on the bed, as if he was afraid of being involved in any small wound.
The wailing gradually turned into a painful sob.
Obvious. This guy is not going to survive. But Brando didn't have the slightest sympathy in his heart, especially when he saw Delferry's current state, he was so angry that he couldn't fight. If he could, he would like to go up and throw two more healing spells to that guy, okay? Let him enjoy the 'taste' of pain more before he dies.
At this time, Princess Griffin came up to the second floor. She saw the scene in the room and her complexion changed, and then she looked at Del Ferry's appearance. Who would not understand what happened. "Beast." Her Royal Highness spat out the word coldly.
"Who is he?" Brando asked.
"I don't want to mention this guy's name. He is really a beast. He is the only heir of Baron Dalle, not Delferry's real brother. You should know who this guy is."
Princess Griffin looked coldly at the sobbing bloody man on the bed, then turned her head to look at Delfery with gentle eyes, and comforted her, "Dilferry, are you alright?"…,
The Countess still acted strong in front of Brando. But when he saw his childhood playmate, he finally couldn't help crying. Her Royal Highness hurriedly supported her, comforted her gently, and gave Brando a wink by the way:
"How long are you going to hold her?"
That look means.
Brando was slightly taken aback.
"Let me take her to change clothes, you are making such a big commotion here. The Hong Kong Guards will be here soon, do you want Delferry to be seen by outsiders like this?" Her Royal Highness said in a low voice.
Only then did Brando suddenly realize that he quickly helped the countess, who was crying in a mess, into the arms of the princess. Then he glanced at the aristocratic boy who was almost howling on the bed until he had no strength. Before, he shot out of anger and didn't think too much about it, but now it seems that this scene is a bit difficult to deal with. But it's this guy's own fault, otherwise he would leave a sigh of relief to the other party and ask what's going on first.
It's all right now, I killed a nobleman inexplicably, and I don't even know what the other party is here for.
But what really puzzled Brando was another thing, he couldn't help but take another look inside the room. "What are you looking at?" Noticing his gaze, Her Royal Highness asked sharply.
But Brando shook his head, he had some guesses in his heart, but he was not sure yet. He pointed to the bloody man on the bed and asked, "It's nothing, what about this guy?"
"Please leave it to me, Lord Earl, Your Royal Highness the Princess."
A cold voice cut in. Brando and the princess turned their heads in a daze, only to find that Nia had come up, and the female knight looked at them both with pleading eyes. Seeing those eyes full of hatred and anger, Brando couldn't help but startled slightly. He hesitated, but finally nodded.
About five minutes later, there was a final howl in Delphiri's room, and then the sound stopped abruptly.
The movements of the harbor guards were obviously much slower than Her Royal Highness expected, at least before they appeared, the Countess finally changed her clothes. Brando saw Delferry appearing with Princess Griffin in a wheelchair. The countess obviously hadn't escaped from the previous nightmare, her hands were interlaced and she was holding on to the shawl tightly, as if she could get out from above Get some comfort.
But at least she was able to speak normally. The pale countess looked up at Brando, and replied softly with gratitude: "Mr. Brando, thank you."
"It's nothing, so what's going on?" Brando asked, he didn't believe that the bastard came from Yanbao just to rape his sister. What's more, in the end, he also heard Akeer ask Delphiri what he wanted. He had some vague guesses, but he didn't dare to confirm it.
"You heard it too," the countess blushed a little. She never dreamed that Brando would see such a shameful scene, which would embarrass the family: "My brother...he came to me for the sword guard Ring."
"That's not your brother, it's just a beast." Princess Griffin's anger still persisted: "The Ring of the Swordsman is an honor bestowed by the royal family on the Swordsman's family, and that guy actually wanted to obtain it by such a shameless means. It's just outrageous."
Brando nodded, he was not surprised, the only thing left among Aruin's nobles was these bullshit things. It's just that Del Ferry's elder brother's methods are too disgusting. To use such means on a woman, especially his own sister, this kind of person is just wasting food in this world.
"How did Yanbao become such a mess?" he asked.
This time it was Princess Griffin who answered on her behalf: "It's normal. If the sword seat is broken, some ghosts and ghosts that usually hide will definitely take the opportunity to jump out and make trouble. If they don't do this, it will be suspicious."…,
The half-elf girl replied coldly, as if she was used to such things. She is indeed commonplace, not only that, but also experienced it once. In front of the supreme power, family affection is just a veil that can be torn apart.
"No," Brando shook his head: "I mean. Could it be that the Earl of Swallow Castle—Miss Delfery's father lost even the ability to control the situation? If I remember correctly, Delferry You took away the three strongest swordsmen in Yanbao, but your father should still have a private army, right?"
"If the Earl of Yanbao still has a little bit of control over his territory and his subordinates, that guy wouldn't be so arrogant." Brando didn't finish some words, and his subtext Princess Princess and Delphi Ray understood. If the Earl of Yanbao still had power, Acker would not dare to blatantly go to Ampersell to attack Delferry.
Although Delphiri and Princess Griffin are only girls, both of them were born in noble families. The rules of the struggle of the nobles. They reacted immediately, but the Countess was the first to react, and she asked eagerly, "Mr. Brando, are you saying that something may have happened to my father...?"
"You don't have to be so nervous, Del Ferry. Those guys may also be fake tigers." Her Royal Highness shook her head and comforted: "The temple is making a fuss about your knowledge of demon spells, and I actually know about it .I thought they couldn't make any waves, but I didn't expect to be negligent for a while..."
"The Temple is going to pursue the responsibility of Delferry's demonic spells?" Brando heard the news for the first time, and he was so out of breath. The devil was summoned by the temple itself, and the devil's armband was given to Delferry by himself. Delferry, a dignified earl's daughter, became the current state of being unable to walk by herself because she knew demon spells, sacrificed Only by saving himself did he save the entire port.
Now those bald donkeys in the temple still want to trouble her?
Brando took a deep breath, frowned and managed to resist the trouble of turning around and looking for the temple immediately. He believed that Princess Griffin was not the kind of person who would sacrifice others for the sake of the overall situation.
He looked at Her Royal Highness.
The half-elf princess sighed: "This matter is not the intention of Priest Wood, it's just those clowns who colluded with the northern nobles. What's more, the cause of the matter is also the fault of the Cruz people themselves. I thought it was just them. It’s just a little trick that disgusts us, but it was misunderstood by some people.”
This certain person obviously refers to Baron Acker and Dale. But Brando frowned.
Is that so?
"Dilferry," he suddenly asked, "Are you familiar with that uncle of yours?"
"Well, I'm familiar with him. He...is not very popular outside, but it is said that he is a very capable person. He has always been at odds with my father, but according to Yanbao's family training, except for the Earl himself In addition, the subordinates below are not allowed to have private troops, so the conflict between him and my father is only at the level of not wanting to see each other." Delferry replied frowning. She was obviously thinking about something too.
"Then do you know what kind of retainers he had before?"
Brando asked.
"I don't know," Delphiri shook his head. "I haven't seen the person Aker brought. Maybe Nia knows something. She knows more about the flow of people in the territory than I do."
"I asked her."
Brando replied. But this time he put on a stern look: "I'll ask you one last question, Delphiri."
"What?"
"Has there been any strange things happening in the Yanbao area recently, or has something similar to the Crystal Forest appeared?"
...
