The eight hundred and forty-eighth scene, the lady who reunites after a long absence
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, the haze in the sky that had been swept away by Valhalla's teleportation finally closed again. The brief sunny weather on both sides of the Parris Valley disappeared, and snowflakes began to fall again in the sky, becoming gray.
The two huge fleets of the Thassard and the Tonigel people gathered together and slowly advanced northward, but less than half an hour later they separated - the remaining crystal cluster army and the nightmare insects in the sky began to flee in all directions.
, the fleet was also dispersed into dozens of separate fleets to pursue the pursuit.
Such a scene appeared in the leaden sky. Against the background of thick smoke rising everywhere on the horizon, the sporadic fleets on the horizon spread out into a huge fan like a scattered group of sharks, like a giant hand shrouding the sky.
All of Parris Plains.
From time to time, flashes of shelling flashed in the sky, and occasionally continuous roars came from far away from the north, but the explosions were getting farther and farther away, and they were gradually inaudible on both sides of the Alder River Bank.
The defeated army of the northern nobles on the ground did not receive a blow from the sky, but after the battle on the ground, under Brando's order, Tonigel's ground forces began to gather and accept prisoners.
Although the private armies of these nobles were no longer the main opponents of the Fir Territory in this war, Brando could not let these people wander around the southern border.
An unruly army can sometimes cause far more damage than rogue bandits. The southern territory of Eruin has just recovered from several wars and must not suffer another disaster because of his negligence.
Fortunately, most people have lost the will to resist - it can even be said to have collapsed. These people have almost no resistance when faced with the incorporation of the Tonigel people, even if there are a few die-hards who occasionally join the fight.
The army of residents is enough to quickly crush any resistance.
After Brando gave the order, he flew into the sky again, watching the Paris Plains after the battle in mid-air. This terrible battle almost turned the entire battlefield into scorched earth, leaving a strong chaos wherever the crystal cluster army passed.
Traces of magic power, the battlefield is covered with crystal clusters ranging from blue to purple - this is the embodiment of chaotic magic power in the material world. These residues will continue to pollute the land and corrupt the vegetation for more than ten years in the future.
And produced a disease called crystallization disease.
In addition to these unnatural twisted magic products, the charred land is the result of the destructive firepower of two huge fleets. It is inevitable to face such losses when starting a war in human's own homeland, but in order to survive and win, this
It is also an inevitable choice.
This black and red land, as well as the crystal pollution far and near, plus the wreckage of several floating battleships that crashed in the distance. The once beautiful Parris Plains disappeared, leaving an ugliness to future generations.
The twisted scar, perhaps this scar in the north of Tonigel will not heal until decades later - until the pollution of the crystal disappears and green vegetation covers the land again.
Brando sighed with regret, but he knew in his heart that this was just the beginning. The coming of the Dusk War was inevitable, and no one knew what kind of future was waiting for the world.
And all he can do is do everything possible to prevent the tragedy of the world in the Stagnant Realm from happening again on this land.
Fortunately, there is still hope for everything.
His eyes were searching for something on the ruins of Mintai City, and at the same time he got in touch with Monica through the magic network of the World Tree covering both sides of the Alder River Beach.
Miss Guangling's voice was a little distorted in the magic network, and she said in a sharp voice: "Lord, there is good news here. I just asked the survivors from the direction of Mintai and learned that at least
Miss Nimesis and Master Leto of the 'Red Copper Dragon' were fine before we launched the counterattack, but then they joined us in launching a counterattack against the noble army in the direction of Archduke Golan-Elson. This place is still temporarily closed.
No follow-up news.”
Brando felt a little relieved, although he had actually had a premonition about this. When he just arrived here, he found that the defense of the Mintai Territory had not been completely dismantled, which showed that there were still people in the city organizing defenses - either
Senior Baijia, or the copper dragon Leto.
"There is still news here, Lord." Monica said again at this time.
"Um?"
"...Well, there is someone here who wants to see you. She said she is an acquaintance of yours."
"My acquaintance?" Brando was stunned. There are many people in Tonigel who are his 'acquaintances', but there are not many of these acquaintances that Monica doesn't know. Listening to Miss Guangling, this is obviously
It was an acquaintance of his whom she had never met: "Where are you?"
"We are on the ruins of Mintai City, can you see us?"
"I saw you." In fact, Brando had already seen Miss Guangling and the 'lady' standing next to her, and couldn't help being slightly startled.
"Ms. Elaine?"
Brando fell slowly from mid-air and looked with some surprise at the banshee standing next to Monica. It was Elaine who had fought side by side with him in Trishman's tomb.
It's just that she looks even weaker than then. The crystallization disease has spread to her entire right arm and back. The combination of purple crystal and body tissue looks a bit scary.
But Elaine didn't seem to be struck down by the crystallization disease. When she saw Brando, a familiar smile appeared on her face: "Little guy, we meet again."
Monica looked at the Banshee, then at Brando, blinked, and felt like she had missed something.
"Can you leave Lord Trishman's tomb?" Brando asked somewhat unexpectedly.
Elaine shook her head: "No, I actually left the Lord's tomb for the same thing. I felt the breath of the Dusk Dragon from behind those people. You understand - it is my master's old rival."
Brando certainly understood the grudges between the Dragon of Darkness and that generation of planeswalkers and the Dragon of Twilight. He nodded and said: "They are the Sasard people, the gray mages of the Buga people, and they have chosen to join the Dusk."
The dragon."
"I know them, little guy," contrary to Brando's expectation, Sister Deer Banshee replied: "I came to the ground to warn you that these people come in strange ways.
"
"Is there something weird?" Brando was stunned and looked at the other party strangely. He didn't quite understand what the so-called weirdness of the deer-bodied banshee Yujie meant.
"Little guy, you may not know that before the war started, these gray mages of the Thassard people were looking for something in the entire Tonigel territory."
"Ah," after hearing this, Monica on the side seemed to react and said loudly: "I remembered, those annoying little mice still got into our fortress, but it seems that Lord Babu has subdued them
Now, do you want to meet them, Lord?"
"I don't think they'll tell you the answer."
Elaine shook her head: "I arrested many of them privately. These wizards themselves didn't know what they were looking for. They were just looking for the magic gathering point underground in Tonigel. I think what they were looking for was different from what I was guarding."
That seal has something to do with it."
Brando frowned: "Ms. Elaine, what exactly is the seal guarded by Lord Trishman and the Witch Queen?"
"I don't know that," Elaine shook her head: "Maybe it is something important, but my master has never revealed any information to me or that dull pendulum."
Brando just shrugged when he heard this.
Elaine's words reminded him of something, but in general, the clues were still a mess. He knew that a thousand years ago, Odin and the Lord of Fire began to make arrangements in Eruin, and Martha and the Dragon of Dusk also
Focus on this place - all in all, this small kingdom is a mess at the moment.
Maybe there really is something important underground in Tonigel. Maybe it is the long-lost Holy Sword of Light among the seven holy swords. He may find out the truth sooner or later, but now he really doesn't have the intention to think about it.
this problem.
At least for now, the Twilight Dragon's claws have been slapped back. Tony Geer is still safe for the time being until he recovers from his injuries. Just be careful of the infiltration of those Sasardian wizards, but Brando has enough
There are reasons to believe that these annoying gray mages may soon have no time to do other things.
He raised his head and looked at the gray sky.
"I owe you another favor, Ms. Elaine."
Of course Brando could see that this place had experienced a great war. The stone statues of the noble armies and the crisscrossing vines standing on the ruins explained everything.
This is a strategic route leading to Mintai Fort. If Elaine hadn't stopped Duke Golan-Elsen's army from outflanking here, with the little strength of Senior Bai Jia and Leto, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to wait until Valhalla.
When the fortress comes to support.
Sometimes Brando has to admit that fate is sometimes full of all kinds of coincidences.
If not for the accidental encounter in the Catacombs, he would not have been able to defeat Williams with the deck of Adversity Paradise, let alone defeat the armies of the Cruz Empire and the Temple of Fire.
Today, if it weren't for the deer-shaped banshee, he might have to face the tragedy of history repeating itself in the land of Eruin.
A very chic smile appeared on the face of the deer-shaped banshee queen: "Then you must remember the debt you owe me. How do you plan to repay me? Don't forget that you are my little lover."
"Little lover?" Monica turned her head curiously and her eyes widened even further.
Brando coughed twice in embarrassment, and then remembered the ridiculous scene that happened in the tomb. He said with some embarrassment: "Ms. Elaine, do you still remember the promise I made? I think I have
Found a way around it."
Elaine was startled for a moment, but then her eyes brightened: "Are you telling the truth, little one?"
She was so excited that her tone was trembling.
Although she has experienced a life far longer than that of humans, and has lived with her companions in the darkness for thousands of years, this experience has made her look down upon life and death.
However, no one would choose to die if they could continue to live, right?
Even though Elaine knew that Brando would not joke with her about this kind of thing, she still couldn't help but feel dizzy in disbelief when the incident came to pass.
"D-did you really do that, little one?"
"Of course it's true." Seeing the deer-body banshee Yujie being so excited, Brando couldn't help but feel happy for her. If the fountain of life is used to purify the crystallization disease, there may be some sequelae, but even more
The powerful dragon blood pool has no problem at all.
"I really saw you right, little guy..." Elaine's tone started to tremble a little. She raised her hand, held Brando's face, and murmured: "Thank you, my little lover."
If it were normal, Brando might still feel a little embarrassed when a woman who is nearly two heads taller than him lowers his head and holds his face, but at this time he can fully understand the sincere feelings in Elaine's heart - even though she keeps saying that
It is said that Brando is her little lover, but that kind of feeling is not so much the attraction between opposite sexes, but a kind of silent affection between relatives.
It's like a relationship between siblings.
After a while, Elaine calmed down, and a hint of shyness flashed in her green eyes. Probably feeling embarrassed for her gaffe, she grabbed Brando's hand and said, "Thank you, little guy,
You have done so much for me, and I want to do one thing for you."
"how……?"
"Aren't you looking for your other little lover? I know where she is. Come on, get on my back and I will take you to see her."
Brando was caught off guard and refused quickly: "Ms. Elaine, I can keep up with you. As for the second request... just skip it."
But Elaine looked a little angry: "Little guy, you saved my life, don't you think I can't even repay you like this? Yes, our clan hates others treating them as mounts, but
If it’s my dearest brother and lover, of course I can make an exception——”
As she said that, she winked at Brando.
"Ah," Miss Guangling on the side quickly shook her little head tactfully and said loudly, "Monica didn't see anything!"
