Huanghuo thought for a moment. "Perhaps it should be said that he didn't tell the truth when he promised to take you to Madara." She frowned slightly, like a willow leaf, "He had other intentions in his heart."
"Thank you, Miss Huanghuo, but actually I know."
"Mr. Brando, do you know?" Huang Huo raised her head and looked at him, with a hint of doubt in her starry eyes.
"I know his intentions, just as he also knows my intentions. Instalong is a smart man, he and I are just betting against each other. This man likes to take the wrong approach, and as for his deputy, Gusta is competing with him
Quite the opposite."
"On gambling?"
Brando stared at the door and continued: "I think His Majesty the Emperor seemed to know him very well, so he arranged for him such a deputy. They are a natural partner, but this time I believe he can convince Gusta
.”
"I do not quite understand……"
"To put it simply, they want things from me, or perhaps more accurately, the person behind their door wants these things. And he knows that there are several things in me, and he wants to take me to eternity.
If I go to the realm of death, I bet Madala will have a way to deal with me."
"In that case, why did Mr. Brando still say that? If Mr. Brando was confident, that person wouldn't agree so easily, right?"
"Because none of us are 100% sure, but I believe that a person who can be recognized by Loki's mercury staff will not retreat on his home court. Instalong also knows this, and so does Gusta.
, so he will definitely convince the one-eyed dragon."
Huang Huo shook his head in disapproval: "The leader of a country should not be so hasty, especially according to Mr. Brando, it is still the link that maintains the stability and unity of this huge country. How can he allow his subordinates to destroy the country's territory?"
Destiny as a bet?"
Brando did not answer this question.
Because there may be many answers to this question. It was just the closest guess, but he didn't know how to explain it to the little girl.
He sighed deeply: "If I guess correctly, this may be the reason that brings endless suffering to my motherland."
When he confirmed to Instar Dragon the reason why Madara invaded Eruin, he finally figured out the problem in his mind.
Why does Madara have a soft spot for the barren land of Eruin? Perhaps it’s not just because of geography, because Madara also has better sea crossings near Kermit Island. And in Baishan
In those places, order is ruled by eternal darkness, which is more suitable for the undead to march.
Eruin has a special meaning to Madara, probably because of its own specialness. It not only possesses the flame orb and the sword of the earth, but also the mountains and rivers and Xinna, the azure spear and the sky, as well as him and
The Holy Sword of Light Somir that Root saw outside the elemental barrier.
The other party is holding a mercury staff, so he may not be unable to know the secret of the Amber Sword. If the emperor's true purpose is the same as his, then everything will be explained.
Why did Madara insist on annexing Eruin?
And this was also the basis of his deal with Instalon.
He knew that Instar Dragon should at least know that he had the Sword of the Earth, and perhaps also knew that he had obtained the Soul of Odysseus. Although this news might be a bit behind the times, it was enough.
He also got the answer he wanted from the other party's reaction, which confirmed his guess. That's why the two of them had their own hidden agendas, and each knew the other's true intention:
If Instar Dragon leads himself to the realm of eternal death, perfectly arranges an ambush, and takes away those things from himself, then the undead will easily accomplish half of their purpose of invading Eruin.
Perhaps they could have followed the plan step by step before. But he deliberately showed that kind of prophetic and aggressive attitude in front of the other party, just to make the Black Lord alert and miscalculate the difficulty of invading this small kingdom.
Now it seems that my goal has been at least half achieved.
The rest depends on the 'travel' within Madala.
Maybe Eruin's crisis will be solved because of this, and in the best case, he can still get the mercury staff. Even worse, it won't be impossible to escape. Brando is still very confident in his current strength.
For him who possesses the elements of time and space, no one in this world can easily keep him here.
But in the realm of eternal death, at least it will be much more convenient to return to Eruin.
Huanghuo noticed something was wrong in his expression from the side. She thought he was thinking about people and thinking about his homeland. He quickly said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Brando, I shouldn't have brought up this topic."
"This is none of your business." Brando shook his head gently.
But his indifference made the little girl feel even more guilty. She said firmly: "Mr. Brando, if Madara really supports Gui Che, Mr. Liu and I will definitely find a way to persuade His Majesty to form an alliance with you.
Yes, we have a common enemy."
"It's an honor." Brando glanced at her with some gratitude. But he also knew that the alliance between Eruin and Jiufeng could not be decided by the two of them here. He might be able to represent Valhalla.
, but although Huanghuo is a royal daughter, she may not even be able to represent the Yufeng royal family, let alone the opinions of the entire Jiufeng family.
Of course, maybe after she and Mr. Liu return to Jiufeng, she can fully activate her identity and energy, but before that, it is impossible for him to stare so dryly.
At the moment, it seems that dismantling the offensive of the Second Black Rose War is the most important thing.
The two were talking when the door in front of them suddenly opened without warning, and a skull poked out from inside. The two gray-white phosphorus fires in the black eye sockets of the skull scared Huang Huo, and even Bran
Dudu was a little surprised. He thought that when the undead appeared in this kind of human territory, the more likely ones to appear would be at least vampires or black knights, undead that looked similar to humans.
The skull didn't care about the surprise of the two of them, and said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Instaron, let the two of you come in."
Its tone was somewhat disgusting. Just as the living had an innate rejection of the undead, the undead also had an innate hatred for the living.
With that said, it opened the door and motioned for Brando and Huang Huo to go in.
Brando nodded.
After entering the door, there was a dark corridor. Brando's eyesight was very good, and he soon saw the dots of soul fires lighting up in the darkness. Each of those soul fires belonged to a skeleton.
These broad-skeletal skeletons, all clad in heavy armor, stood on both sides of the aisle like lifeless decorations. He recognized these things as Madara's Crusader executioners.
This thing almost killed him in Ridenburg, but now that two rows of these things were standing in this corridor, he didn't feel any threat at all.
Not to mention him, even Huang Huo didn't change her expression. As a swordsman with elemental manifestation level strength, these things are not much different from large toys to her.
She didn't seem to have any of the natural fear of darkness that ordinary girls have. Her eyes shone brightly in the dark environment, as if she was born for such an environment.
Brando was originally worried that Huang Huo might not adapt, but seeing her like this, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
The skeleton led the way forward slowly and slowly, but Brando didn't have the patience. He narrowed his eyes slightly and extended his dark perception.
But he felt that his perception of the environment and magic power had just extended from the darkness, and he felt a sense of being spied on. He was slightly startled, and then heard Huang Huo let out a soft sigh.
"Mr. Brando...has similar abilities?"
"What?" Brando was stunned for a moment.
"It's the Eye of Heaven," Huang Huo's voice came from the darkness: "The Heart of the Jade Phoenix teaches us to feel the world with our hearts, so we can tell whether others have malicious intentions, or whether they are using lies to blind our hearts."
"Is this how you judged that Instalong was lying?" Brando whispered in surprise.
"Yes, does Mr. Brando also have such ability?"
"It's different from yours. I can only feel something through the flow of magic power, but it can also make my perception sharper."
After confirming that he was being spied on by Huang Huo's ability, he relaxed and expanded his perception while describing it. However, he was very interested in Huang Huo's 'eye of the sky' ability, which was very similar to
Eruin's 'Mingjing Shisui' in White Crow Swordsmanship, or the 'in-depth analysis' he learned from the Silver Elf.
But it is much more powerful than the latter two. After all, the latter two do not have the ability to distinguish lies from people's hearts.
He was about to ask about the details of this ability, hoping to find a way to use something to replace this ability from the opponent's hand, but at this time, Brando suddenly closed his mouth.
He originally extended his dark perception just to guard against possible threats, because although he said that the Instar Dragon would not play any tricks, who could guarantee that the Black Lord would not suddenly have a brain convulsion. The boat capsized in the gutter.
For this kind of thing, naturally the less the better.
But he didn't expect that his extended perception would suddenly penetrate the wall and feel the existence of the room on the other side of the wall. He probably didn't expect that Instar Dragon and Gusta would be so close. Maybe it was
Because the undead are too safe here, they don't seem to have much precautions and arrangements in the building.
So Brando immediately heard a somewhat unfamiliar voice.
