Act 98 2-Headed Dragon? (Superior)
Amber Sword, Scene 98 Two-Headed Dragon? (superior)
The ice and snow were like the tip of a knife, shimmering and freezing to the bone. The trees on both sides of the glacier looked like ice crystals, standing tall and cold. The cold wind passed through the forest, bringing with it the sound of subtle breathing. Freya clasped her hands and stared at the vast white glacier below. There were sparse black spots scattered on the glacier. A team of about hundreds of people was struggling to move forward. This scene in her field of vision was vague and was swept up from time to time. Covered by the rising wind and snow, the future Valkyrie frowned, her eyebrows were covered with snowflakes. She was wearing a thick cloak, which almost completely covered the fur-lined armor underneath. It looked like Similar to a hunter hiding in the mountains and forests.
The field of vision extends outward, and hundreds of soldiers wearing the same silver-clad cloaks are hidden in the bushes, motionless. From a distance, they are almost the same color as the snowdrifts. Nymesis looked at the time. The pocket watch was almost rattling due to the low temperature, but the hands were not wrong at all. She handed the pocket watch to Freya. "That's them?" "That's them." Freya nodded in confirmation. Now she saw that those people were almost the same as what Brando had said to him. Besides, there should be no third force here.
"It's good luck that their half-hearted lord guessed it." Not far behind Freya, several Cruz nobles squatted together and discussed in whispers. Under the white cloak is a blond young man with a pale face, as if he has overindulged. He is only twenty-one or two years old, but the emblem on his collar proves that he is an official knight commander. His face is mixed with disapproval and disapproval. He said this with an expression of watching a good show, and then caused a burst of low laughter. Another person laughed and said: "But Lady Veronica actually listened to that guy's slander. It's unbelievable to let that little girl have full command."
The others followed suit with a shrug. "Look, she doesn't understand command at all. How can we launch a charge at this distance? This is glacial terrain, not hills or plains." The blond young man shook his head.
"Browder, I heard that they are cadets who graduated from the Royal Academy of Knights in Eruin."
"I see." Browder raised his eyebrows. This distance is consistent with the distance stipulated in the drill, but the Eruin soldiers must lack experience in fighting on snowy fields, and tactics should be adapted to local conditions. In his opinion, this woman is rigidly dogmatic.
"Just wait and see the good show." He glanced over there. They were excellent soldiers. It was not that he was disobeying orders, but he was sure that the other party would definitely fail, and couldn't help but cast a somewhat disapproving look in that direction. "Let everyone get ready. The other party may find us first. We are just private soldiers of the Eruin nobles, and they are country chickens and dogs. The bumpkin lord's judgment is reasonable. The following is probably just cannon fodder. Team, we shouldn’t have any trouble.”
"He probably wants to train his commander, just to make us unlucky." Behind Browder, there was a tall man. But the female knight whose cheeks were a little too thin judged.
"He also asked us to pretend to be like a giant dragon.
"Awww..." One person joked, putting his hands to his cheeks and imitating a dragon's roar, "Hahaha..." which caused a burst of laughter from everyone around.
The low laughter finally caught Freya's attention. She took a gentle breath and glanced back with some dissatisfaction, but frowned and looked back. "Don't worry about them." Nymesis glanced at her and reminded her. "I know." Freya nodded. This was the first battle she had commanded in the true sense, and she would never take it lightly. She looked up. Through the wind and snow, his light brown eyes once again reflected the traces of the noble private soldiers, and he couldn't help but think of the question Brando had asked himself.
…
"Please stop laughing, Legion Commander." Shi Duo looked very embarrassed with her face red in the snow. "I'm sorry, Shiduo, but you really shouldn't regard the Eruin people as barbarians...hehe, hehe..." Veronica squinted her eyes, but she couldn't help but an arc appeared at the corner of her mouth. . She saw the senior girl turn around in embarrassment, and then she explained with a sigh: "Their ancestor Ek was also a noble of our Cruz people. In fact, the Eruin people and the Cruz people have always had the same origin, but They also have their own culture. If you follow those guys in the imperial capital... what you learn is really biased."
"So you can only see the real world when you go out." Shi Duo held the book, stood in the pure snowflakes, and glanced in the direction of Brando: "My lord, will he be angry? "
"No, he's not that stingy. Let's go over and take a look. Only he will recognize the thing in front of us." Veronica replied. She pressed the fur wrapped around her neck tightly and held the hilt of the sword with one hand. , walked over creakingly.
"You don't even recognize him, Lord Legion Commander?" Shi Duo was a little surprised.
"Don't be curious, that little guy is a strange person. He said that he learned these things from the Black Tower Wizard's files. Hum, I talked to William, and it seems that there is some knowledge that even he doesn't understand. There must be some secrets in this little guy. ." Veronica replied.
Miss Scholar was slightly startled when she heard this, and couldn't help but look in that direction curiously.
Brando creaked across a thick glacier. He raised his head and saw something that seemed to be standing in the corner of the sky in the distance - that thing naturally attracted people's attention, as if it was the corner of a huge structure, dark. Like ink, it is inserted into the glacier at an angle, with only a very small part exposed. The entire corner exudes the luster of metal, and the surface of the metal is covered with streaks of light blue texture, sparkling, forming regular geometric shapes hanging down from the top of the corner, densely covering the entire 'body' of 'this thing' ; When viewed from a distance, this is more like a temple sunk into the ground, but closer, Brando feels a very familiar feeling, a bit like the creation of the Hazel people, full of constructs. with industrial style.
He raised his head and could almost imagine the thing flying past here. It fell from mid-air and hit the ground. The energy burst out instantly tore apart the earth, leaving deep traces on the ground. Then it kept sliding away until it lost all kinetic energy before slowing down. Slowly stopping, what followed was a thousand years of ice, until they were rediscovered today. He slowly walked through the ravine-like valleys. These valleys were formed by this impact thousands of years ago. Milos, the father of the frost giants, was buried here. Thousands of years of ice and snow can testify to this.
He was a little lost in thought——
"Mr. Brando?" Until a voice sounded behind him, he turned around and saw Shiduo with a serious look on his face: "Do you know what this is?"
She raised her head and looked at this great creation with some amazement.
"You mean that thing?" Brando was a little distracted. He glanced at the black square pillar in the sky in the distance that seemed to go straight into the clouds. His mind was not actually on that. This is not something important. Such scenery can be seen in many places in the glacier. It is like a background for the players and has no meaning of existence. But it was indeed majestic. Brando raised his head and looked at the black pointed pillar: "That is the remains of Milos."
"What!?"
Shi Duo was stunned, and she stopped for a moment: "Is that the body of God?" Inevitably, the scholar lady showed doubts in her eyes - she was very aware of her beauty, and some people would often pretend to be knowledgeable in order to get close to her. With a profound look, she knew that many of the legendary stories she heard when she was in the academy were actually fabricated. She now felt that the same was true for the Earl, because she felt that he could not possibly look like a scholar, and even a scholar might not dare to say such a thing.
She looked at the huge ruins and couldn't accept such an explanation.
"Do you think I'm lying?" Brando turned back and glanced at her, a little funny - at least this scholar lady had always made him very interesting.
"No..." Shi Duo quickly shook his head: "But as a scholar, you must be responsible for your own words. Have you really confirmed your words, Lord Lord?"
Isn't this a suspicion? Brando thought, and he replied: "These are actually not my words. In this battle recorded in the witch's Black Prophecy, Milos disintegrated in mid-air, and the wreckage was scattered on the earth. Some of them fell into this glacier, but one still fell into the Sea of the Dead Moon. The Buga people built a city on it called Onais. You should have heard of it, right?"
"The ruins on the Sea of the Dead Moon are... just..." Shi Duo stared at the black 'building' in the sky with wide eyes.
"Absolutely, and in fact, both the Buga people and the Black Tower wizards have confirmed this. These things we see now are the remains of Milos. In the future, you may have the opportunity to enter the White Tower and learn from the Silver Wizards. File, you will be exposed to this precious knowledge, Miss Shiduo." When Brando said this himself, he also glanced at the black tower on the horizon. "Thank you -" Shi Duo replied softly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt your words."
"No need to apologize. Scholars have this saying, 'Doubt is the door to truth.' You must have heard it, right?"
"Ah, you also know, Mr. Brando, are you really a scholar?" Shi Duo asked in surprise, holding the book.
"Ahem... I just read the literature on this subject. Actually, I'm not really a scholar."
"That's just a pity."
But Brando was a little absent-minded at the moment, but what he thought about was the action on the other side. He heard creaking footsteps coming from behind, and he knew it was Veronica from the sound.
"How about it, are you confident, little guy?" She obviously heard the conversation between Brando and Shi Duo, but at the moment, like Brando, it was impossible for her to focus on these legends and myths.
Brando didn't look back, just nodded: "Don't worry."
"Why are you so sure that Enlek will really act on this plan?" Veronica frowned, but it was not that she didn't believe Brando. If she didn't believe it, she would not agree to Brando's plan.
"It's very simple." Brando replied.
He turned around... I was 'discussing the plot' with my book friends in the group tonight. I wasted some time and updated one chapter first. Come tomorrow to make up for perfect attendance. It's miserable. )RQ
