Act 104: Symbol of Nature’s Affinity III
The double pressure pressed on Brando at the same time, almost making him unable to move, but his mind did not stop, racking his brains to find a possibility of escape.
What they were looking for was indeed the Sword of the Earth——
He thought to himself, but after all, it was just a damaged weapon. Although it was said to be the only important symbol among the three artifacts that could represent the Earth Temple-but that was after all, nearly a thousand years ago. In this thousand years , the decline of the Earth Temple was not due to the loss of the three artifacts, but because of the violation of the sacred covenant. In this case, even if the Earth Temple
Sword Harangya's return to the Earth Temple did not help matters.
What's more, the dragons don't believe in Gaia. They are the people of the sky. If it is said that these three-headed dragons were expelled underground and became believers of the Earth Temple from then on, it is impossible for Brando to believe it. .
But in that case, why did they go here personally to find the Sword of the Earth, even leaving Jogendigang in violation of the dragon clan's oath.
Finally, was the sword the reason the Chogundigons went to war?
What Brando wants to determine now is how important the Sword of the Earth is to these giant dragons, and whether it can be used to blackmail the other party. After all, the Sword of the Earth is still in his dimensional cave. If he dies, the dimensional Although the hole itself is difficult to be annihilated in the passage of magic power, the things inside may not be preserved. If one or two items are lost in the vortex of space, among them are the
If there is an Earth Sword by chance, the other party will probably not be able to accept it.
The key question is whether the other party dares to gamble. If the Earth Sword is not that important to the other party, then they may not care about this risk.
But Brando felt that this surname might be small.
"Should I call you Gwendolyn, or should I call you Foccia, the respected dragon lady?" These thoughts were running through his mind, but he didn't show it on the surface, and he didn't even frown. asked.
"As expected, you know a lot. I have a relationship with Foscia, but it's not her." The Dragon Queen didn't seem to care about this little secret, and she narrowed her eyes and answered bluntly.
A descendant of Phoscia?
Brando was slightly startled, thinking that this statement might be more reliable. After all, the evil dragon Foccia had been sealed a thousand years ago. It was impossible for him to sneak out without the dragon clan noticing, let alone those involved in the sealing. There are also the Bugas, these craftsman wizards who claim not to interfere in mortal affairs. They have set up various monitoring points all over the world.
Used to observe the mortal world
boundary.
He didn't know why the evil dragon Fosia was sealed back then, so he couldn't confirm Gwendolyn's attitude. However, it was none of his business in the first place. He thought for a moment before continuing:
"The thing you are looking for is called Harangya, or the Sword of the Earth, according to mortals and dwarves. It is indeed with me. However, the Sword of the Earth was permanently damaged a thousand years ago. And although it is known as the symbol of the Earth Temple, it seems that this is not its original meaning, but a meaning that is far-fetched and added to it by later generations. It is in
In this world, like many famous swords that claim to be holy swords, I think they are not worthy of the Dragon Queen’s personal visit..."
"Boy, you talk a lot of nonsense." Modesty interrupted him impatiently, "You are still stalling for time. Maybe you think you still have a chance to make a comeback."
"No, it's just mortal curiosity." Brando was startled and quickly explained.
"Silly curiosity." Modesty replied.
Brando looked at Gwendolyn. What he cared about was not the answer to the question, but the latter's attitude. Regardless of whether the latter answered him or not, as long as the other party made a statement, it was enough.
Gwendolyn, as always, didn't care about his little thoughts, as if she had infinite time, and didn't mind Brando delaying for a while longer, so she replied coldly: "How can the artifact be destroyed so easily?" , they are symbols of tiamat. Each artifact corresponds to the most basic laws of the world. Their appearance symbolizes the turmoil and chaos of the world.
Changes in order, among these changes, what ultimately changes is the fate of mortals. "
"Although the Sword of the Earth is damaged, the laws it represents still exist. It reappears in the world through your hands, which means it has a mission that must be completed." The corners of the Dragon Queen's mouth raised slightly, as if it was a silent sarcasm. : "Unless tiamat wants to change the world, artifacts will never appear easily. They are the keys to changing the future, and you actually think they are broken.
"Bronze and rotten iron,"
Brando's heart skipped a beat.
It's not like he hasn't heard of this statement before. It's also a popular statement among players in another world. Because in "Amber Sword", artifacts are difficult to destroy. To destroy an artifact, various conditions often need to be met. The condition for destroying the Earth Sword is to throw it into the depths of the earth. In the lake - but it is not an ordinary lake, but the center of the earth
The magma sea, only people have heard about it, no one has actually seen it.
Therefore, the Sword of the Earth is always damaged, not destroyed, and then there is a problem when it comes to rescue.
Can the broken Earth Sword bring about so-called artifact tasks like other artifacts?
According to the game, the artifact task is a task that requires rewards in advance - the artifact is the final reward of the task, but you can get it first - because the artifact (sub-artifacts do not have this special name) has a special surname. , so the tasks that follow are often surprisingly difficult and widely involved, and often even permanently change the history of a region or even a country.
. Just like twenty-four Wind Queen Rings, or gathering all the fragments of the Flame Blade, it is a task that can definitely cause an earthquake in the power core of Saint Osor or the Cruz Empire.
But the problem is that the Sword of the Earth is a broken artifact. Its power is actually only at the upper level among fantasy-level weapons, and it is not even comparable to most ancient-level equipment-for example, the powerful Killer. Magic gun.
Therefore, if the Earth Sword also brings difficult tasks and challenges to the sword holder, although this design is realistic, it is a bit too unhuman.
Brando has seldom thought about the world's problems from the perspective of games recently, but when Gwendolyn said these words, out of the instinct of survival, he immediately thought of this possible surname. : Could this be said to be the mission chain of Sword of the Earth? No, impossible. He shook his head. This implication was too broad. Jorgendigon invaded Cruz.
, this level of historical change can only be the historical advancement brought about by chapter switching in the game, just like advancing from the legend of the Stag and the Empire to the era of war and chaos, and then the War Slate was excavated for the first time, triggering The people who lost the silver returned to the mortal world, and the Second Age came.
Everything that is happening right now is very likely to be like this.
To say that what is most likely to cause all this, Brando feels that the first thing that should be the most important is the Azure Spear, not the Sword of the Earth.
He thought hard for a while and finally made a decision. He slowly raised his hand and let a black line appear in his palm. At that moment, both Gwendolyn and Modesty could see the thing clearly. "Dimensional hole!" Gwendoline obviously did not expect Brando to have such a thing. This is not in the game "Amber Sword". In the game, the dimensional hole and dimensional bag are
It is a relatively popular piece of equipment among players, because the former is sold in game malls - it is impossible for game companies to let players really drive around in convoys and carry large and small bags.
But in fact, in the background of the story, the Dimensional Cave is still a relatively rare thing. Just think about its original owner, the high-ranking priest of the Temple of Fire, who is also a core member of the All-Things Unity Association. He only has such a thing. , it goes without saying.
Dimensional caves are not uncommon for dragons, but what the Dragon Queen didn't expect was that a little earl from a border kingdom would have such a thing.
"No wonder it's so," Modesty screamed: "Malthus and I clearly felt the breath of the Sword of the Earth yesterday, but it disappeared in an instant. I guess it was you!"
Gwendolyn interrupted her and looked at Brando with some surprise: "You felt Modesty and Malthus tracking the Sword of the Earth. How far were they from you at that time?"
Modesty also reacted: "No, no, he wouldn't have been too close to us at the time, otherwise Malthus and I would never have lost him. Even if he put the Sword of the Earth into the dimensional cave, we could still follow the Earth The aura before the sword disappeared found him, and he must have been quite far away from us when he found us."
"It's really interesting." The female black dragon stared at Brando with burning eyes: "Little insect, it seems that you still have a lot of secrets."
Gwendolyn frowned and asked only one question: "Are you the descendant of that human being?"
Brando was startled for a moment, and instinctively realized who the other party was asking. He raised his head and looked at the legendary Dragon Queen in disbelief.
"What!" Modesty was shocked: "Is he related to that guy?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about, madam." Brando said in a deep voice.
At this time, he understood that he could no longer run away, so he also let go of Chiara and the elf in his hands. The latter two were shivering, not sure whether they were scared or cold. On the other hand, the businesswoman who jumped off his shoulder looked particularly energetic. She looked at him with a mixture of fear, caution, and curiosity.
Wendolin, then looked at Modesty behind her.
Then she quickly discovered that the eyes of the two dragons that had been falling on Brando turned towards her.
At this moment, even the heartless business lady couldn't help but couldn't bear it, and hurriedly hid behind Brando.
Modesty and Gwendoline glanced at Roman together, and then the latter spoke again: "You know who I'm asking, humans, your grandfather, you humans call him Sword Master Darus, and we Call him the Dragon of Halasg, if I say that, you should understand.”
Although Brando had expected it, his heart couldn't help but beat violently at this moment. The Dragon of Halasgo - he vaguely remembered hearing the name there: "Do you know my grandfather? "
He asked this verbally, but in his mind he had vaguely connected the fragmented clues during this period into a complete line.
Both Her Royal Highness the Princess and Ms. Veronica mentioned that there was a shadow of dragons behind the incident that occurred during the Holy War, and the two dragons in front of them - plus Malthus, were obviously the truth. The reason why they were exiled is also self-evident. Although he still doesn't know exactly when they were exiled, he can definitely guess that these three
The head dragons were obviously not exiled for a long time. This can be proved from the fact that their names were not mentioned in the war underground in Qiaogendigang in history. If they were expelled within a hundred years, then the most likely outcome would be The possible time point is obviously the period from sixty to forty years ago.
That happened to be the time period when the jihad took place.
The three of them were witnesses to the incident that year, and may even be key figures in it. What mistake did they make and were expelled?
But this time Gwendolyn fell silent and simply replied: "It's not familiar, but it can be considered acquaintance."
"What exactly happened back then?" Brando asked tentatively.
"It's better that you don't know some things," Gwendolyn's tone was slightly gentler: "We owe your grandfather a favor. For the sake of this favor, if you hand over the Earth Sword today, we can let you go. Yima - as long as you take your people and leave Cruz immediately, everything that happens here will have nothing to do with you from now on."
She raised her head and looked at Modesty who was directly opposite her: "Modesti?"
The female black dragon responded reluctantly: "Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
Brando never dreamed that his grandfather would be so awesome - even the Dragon Clan owed him a favor! But on the one hand, he felt a little unhappy. The Dragon Clan also owed the Silver Queen a favor, and then they helped the latter ascend the throne and become emperor - this was by no means an easy task, because it not only involved the replacement of the throne of an empire as huge as Cruz, but also related to
The Buga people will never stand by and watch the balance between mortal forces. The Silver People and the Golden Race agreed in the sacred covenant not to get involved in mortal affairs. To do this, the Dragon Clan at least need to convince the Buga people. and Silver Elves, you can imagine the price they paid.
The Dragon Clan paid such a high price just to repay the Silver Queen's favor, and his grandfather was not only criticized and wronged, but he was also a great swordsman and spent his whole life as a miller without any name. Moreover, his grandfather's level was In the end, the character's lifespan is almost the same as that of ordinary people. You can imagine how much he paid at the beginning, and the difference in treatment.
It's a little too big.
The most deceiving thing is that Brando, the grandson of Sword Master Darus, who was supposed to be from a distinguished family, is actually reduced to working as a militiaman in a place like Butchi where birds do not lay eggs.
This is a joke.
Of course, Brando only had a brief exposure in his mind. After all, if history really develops like this, he may not be able to come to this world. .
What he was really unhappy about was the attitude of Gwendolyn and Modesty at the moment——
He shook his head gently: "Ms. Gwendolyn, I don't ask for any favors from you. Although I really have no intention of wading into the muddy waters of the Cruz Empire, before you ask me to leave here, you'd better listen to my request. .”
"Oh?" Modesty was slightly startled. She didn't expect that this little bug-like guy would dare to ask them for conditions in return. She asked a little funny: "What conditions do you have, please tell me?"
"My request is very simple. I came to the empire just to bring back one person." Brando replied.
It's not that Brando can't turn around and leave. Both he and Her Royal Highness the so-called envoys are well aware that they are just selling dogs on sheep's heads. As long as he can bring back Qian, he will not bother to go to Rushta to see that Her Majesty the Queen. . But as long as Akane remains in the empire for one day, he will never look back. No matter whether there is a dragon or something else, it doesn't matter to Brando.
makes any sense.
Gwendoline thought for a moment and understood what he was referring to. The Dragon Queen seemed to know everything that had happened in the empire during this period. She shook her head and said: "I'm afraid not, she doesn't It’s not important, but what’s important is Azure Spear. You should know her value to the Cruz people. There’s no way the Silver Queen will let her go. This woman is a danger to you.
Trouble, I advise you to stay away from her. "
Brando could still keep calm, but he couldn't help but get angry when he heard these words. Mortals are afraid of dragons, but he is not afraid. He corrected Gwendolyn coldly: "She is my friend, and It’s not any trouble, this so-called trouble was imposed on her by Cruz’s bandits.”
"So what?" Gwendolyn looked indifferent: "The empire is stronger than you, you can only accept this fact in front of them."
Brando took a deep breath: "But the Empire is also your enemy, isn't it? The Azure Spear is not important to me, I just want people. You are determined to win the Sword of the Earth, and you will not let it go. Azure Spear."
Gwendolen shook her head without hesitation.
"That's impossible."
"Why?" Brando didn't understand. He wondered if these dragons were crazy. The way they acted was simply unbelievable. In his opinion, since everyone's enemies are the same and have common interests and demands, not to mention that they owe his grandfather a favor, they can cooperate both emotionally and rationally. However, the other party not only refused, but also refused like this.
So decisive.
"Because it's too much trouble," Gwendolen replied: "We don't lack help."
"So this is your way of returning favors? It's really unique!" Brando replied coldly.
"Whatever you think," Gwendolyn still remained indifferent: "I said, because we are stronger than you, you must accept this fact."
Brando sneered, thinking that these two female lizards thought he was begging them: "It seems that you think it is inevitable?"
"Isn't it?" Modesty replied sharply: "I can't think of any other tricks you can pull off."
"That's because your mind is too dull," Brando replied mercilessly: "The Sword of the Earth is placed in the dimensional cave. If you think you are bound to get it, you can come and kill me and take it away yourself. You two ladies might as well give it a try.”
Gwendolyn and Modesty were immediately stunned.
