The biting cold wind howled, like a furious beast, howling among the mountains. Veronica and the accompanying knights braved the blade-like ice wind and walked up a mountain, and the view was like a knife cutting an axe.
The precipitous mountains and mountains were silent in the dark night, and only an outline could be vaguely seen. This side was as smooth as a mirror, shining under the moon of the golden sea, exuding a pale color.
And at the foot of the mountain, a group of dark creatures are gathering, gathering together like water, forming a mass of darkness, probably tens of thousands in size. There are also some flying creatures in the sky, and these monsters are guarding the Odos Pass.
Blocking the road leading to Alka.
From time to time, the howls of monsters came from far away from that direction due to the wind. In the dark night, it was even more heart-stopping.
"As expected, these monsters are slowing down our pace and going around to stop us. The Odos Pass is the only mountain road leading to the Alka region nearby. Otherwise, we can only take a detour further north, but these
The main force of the monsters is already behind us, and we don't have much time left to make a choice."
The speaker was Laurenna, the daughter of the Grand Master of the Knights Templar who once served as an entourage of the Empire with her fiancé Feras, and went on an expedition to the Death Frost Forest with Brando. After the big explosion, she
Returning to the country with Feras, he was imprisoned by the Silver Queen and Veronica not long after, and was later rescued by Brando.
After the drastic changes in Rushta, she, Veronica, Vala and others left Banker along with the teleportation and came to East Metz, where they experienced the fiasco. And due to the lack of middle- and lower-level officers after successive fiascos, not only could they not
Ina also served as the knight captain of the Broken Sword Knights. This former talented knight girl in the imperial capital was directly designated as her deputy by Veronica, and now she has become a member of the middle-level commanders of the Blue Legion.
Miss Knight is dressed in military uniform, and her fiancé Ferras is standing beside her. Since almost all members of the Prince of Barano family died in this upheaval, the only eldest son and heir seems a little depressed at this moment, unlike in Eru.
Because it was so joyful at times.
"The dragons are still buying time for us. But there is no doubt that it is only a matter of time before those flying crystal clusters arrive. There is no time for us to take a detour to the north. If we encounter those monsters at the Alkhash Pass, we will all
The army was destroyed."
Luo An, who was dressed in silver robes, replied. The strong wind made his robes rustle, but he stood in the cold wind holding an ivory staff, acting more calmly than the knights, as if he was not affected at all.
He looked at Valla, the Holy See of the Temple of Fire who was silent, and continued: "Your Excellency, the High Priest, the best way at the moment is for us to join forces to defeat this army, and take advantage of the crystal cluster army before it arrives, and attack from the front.
What do you think about opening a passage?"
Before Vala spoke, Sidney beside him nodded: "Okay."
"Then the coordination of the army will be left to Ms. Veronica," Luo An said: "Legion Commander, is it okay?"
Veronica stared at the dark army of crystal clusters below and nodded: "I will coordinate with Mangrove." She looked at the eldest son of the emperor, Lenaret, who also nodded silently.
Everyone present understood that the next battle would be the key to determining the outcome of the war that night. No matter how much they did before this, no matter how good they were, if this battle failed, the future of the empire would be in danger.
Turn into nothing.
To the Cruz people, it seemed that since the tragic battle on the Great Plains, for thousands of years, the descendants of Gilt, the Lord of Fire, had faced another war that could not be lost.
Almost every Cruz person present was praying silently in their hearts, praying for the deceased sages to bless their descendants to seize the last glimmer of hope.
"Blow the horn." The heavy cavalry of the Blue Legion were gathering on the side of the battlefield. Veronica waited for a moment before speaking.
On the hill, rows of mages in silver robes began to flicker, and then disappeared one by one. Finally, there was Luo An, the leader of the Secret Realm Law Walkers, and the Great Sacred Belt of the Temple of Fire.
The great priest Vala of Iron and Fire came, and the two of them stepped into a light gate without saying a word.
Sidney, the saint statue of the Lion Palace, looked back at the female legion leader before leaving, and then stepped into the door of light that belonged to her.
Veronica took a deep breath, and many images of battlefields seemed to appear in front of her eyes. Sometimes it was the valley of Haggang, where the lion army surged in like a tide; or it was the battle of Celery Castle. This time
The enemy was replaced by the wind elves, the fighting knights, the forest of spears, the arrows that seemed to eclipse the sky, the images of the enemies rotated, Faenzan people, elves, mountain people, lion people sometimes
Even Cruz's heavy knight, every war she experienced appeared before her eyes.
Until finally, they overlapped and merged into one, re-forming into the scene in front of her. The mountains of Alka, the cold wind howling, and the army of crystal clusters were waiting solemnly, waiting for the first impact of the Cruz people.
The sound of the trumpet echoed all over the mountains and plains.
…
Brando had a dream.
In the dream, he seemed to have returned to the past games, the mountains with the biting cold wind, the dark sky, the howling wind, and the endless, desperate army.
It was overwhelming, coming like a tide. The human resistance was so weak. They roared, fought, and used every ounce of their strength, but the enemies came from all directions, and there was no chance at all.
The rage in his heart is burning. Where is the diamond force? Where is the fire of the thorn flower? Where is the army of the temple? Where are the reinforcements?
He remembered that the last thing he saw was the skeleton of a giant dragon wrapped in a dark aura, screaming through the air, and gray flames spitting out from the mouth of the giant skeletal dragon, burning everything in its path.
All turned into ashes.
Then the whole world dimmed and fell into darkness.
Then he woke up.
That battle was his last memory of that world. He didn’t know what happened after that battle in the Alkash Mountains, but the defeat of the coalition forces of Faenzan and Cruz would definitely bring about the game.
Earth-shaking changes within.
In a sense, that was the battle that changed Warnd's history.
But here, there may never be such a war again.
Brando didn't know that at this moment, there was a war that also determined the fate of an empire, being played out in the same place. Many names and people he was familiar with were fighting for their own destiny in such a war.
And try your best.
He didn't know that perhaps by the time he opened his eyes, every familiar name had already passed away and turned into a memory of the past.
He woke up from the darkness, feeling a little strangely bored in his heart, so he put on his coat and came to the door. Outside the door was a long corridor, silent, and he walked through this dark corridor along the memories of the day.
There was a slight light in front of the corridor, and we had reached a courtyard.
The cool night breeze blew against his face, and he had just taken a breath when he heard a confused voice: "Brando?"
Brando was slightly stunned. He knew that only one person here would call him that. He raised his head and saw Freya's lonely figure standing in the courtyard, looking at him with surprise.
"Can't you sleep either, Brando?"
Brando wanted to say that he woke up suddenly, but for some reason, he just nodded silently.
"And you?"
"I'm going back to Eruin tomorrow, Brando." Freya said softly.
Brando suddenly understood what Freya wanted to express. The moonlight in the Land of Eternal Death shone in the courtyard, a faint silver color.
"Come with me for a walk?" he asked suddenly.
Freya was stunned for a moment, then nodded. She was resolute on the battlefield, but in front of Brando, she had always been submissive.
The two of them walked silently along the corridor of the courtyard, with only the sound of rustling footsteps. The girl lowered her head, feeling the pounding heartbeat, which was powerful and regular.
"What did Andrea tell you about your life experience?" Brando suddenly asked. Andrea once vaguely revealed to him that Freya's bloodline and inheritance may be related to the goddess of war. He only said
I know that Freya's real name should actually be Alicia Everton. She is the daughter of the Earth Knight Everton. In order to escape the purge of the royal party during the era of Auberge VI, she was brought to Butchi by the royal party.
Arranged at the home of her 'uncle' and 'aunt'.
The Earth Knight Everton himself has no special inheritance, he is just an outstanding knight. The inheritance and bloodline of Freya's Valkyrie Mark can obviously only come from her mother. Princess Griffin once talked to him
This incident has occurred, but Freya’s mother has always been a mystery. Everton once had a spouse, but both were killed in political persecution. The lady was not born in the noble family of Eruin, which is very strange.
It is rare and cannot be investigated.
Brando knew that since Butchi's disaster, Freya had always been very concerned about her life experience, especially after learning her father's true identity, so when Andrea mentioned it,
He insisted on letting Freya go to the Land of Eternal Death. Otherwise, if it was just for the alliance with Madara, Antitina would be more suitable to serve as Eruin's envoy than her.
Sure enough, after listening to Brando's words, Freya's eyes flashed and she replied: "Miss Andrea thinks I may be a descendant of a tribe they lost in Warnd."
