Act 516: Holy Alliance IV

Genius remembers in one second to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

For the Cruz people - especially for the Cruz nobles, everything that happened in the past few days was particularly meaningful. This is a reincarnation a thousand years later, the King of Fire and the Holy Sword Odysseus, these two glorious After eleven centuries, his name returned to the empire.

It's like everything starts here and ends here.

For any Cruz person, the return of this sacred honor is an extraordinary symbol. It is not only a laurel crown, but more importantly, a return to ancient glory. However, this glory has a hint of dissatisfaction. - Although he is the de jure monarch of the Cruz people after all, the identity of that young man will always remind people of some unpleasant memories.

What the nobles have been unwilling to admit is that the Earth Sword Saint Darus, the best coalition commander in history sixty years ago, has now returned to this empire through another method. Two generations of ancestors and grandchildren, Now it towers over their heads in an even more prominent way, whether they want it or not.

But the Cruzes couldn't argue with that.

Brando is the inheritor recognized by the Holy Ring of Flame, not to mention the relationship between the Holy Sword Odyssey and him. Compared with the eldest son of the emperor, this Eruin man is more like the King of Flame Gilt. Descendants.

Behind His Majesty the Emperor, there is not only the support of the Great Holy See Walla and Bishop Sidney of the Lion Palace, but also the faint shadow of the traditional imperialists - the old Prime Minister Niedwin, Duke Mehotofen , the two daughters have been spending time with His Majesty these days, and have been inseparable, allowing outsiders to understand the relationship at a glance.

And even among the military nobles who support His Majesty with the smallest voice, there are still outliers like Veronica. In today's empire, the Blue Army and the Knights of the Broken Sword are quite a force. But What is somewhat surprising is that the younger generations of the Knights of the Broken Sword, who come from various families, seem to hold the new Emperor Cruz in high esteem and worship him so much that even though Brando has not yet truly ascended the throne, he is among the nobles. He has gained quite a reputation in circles, especially among ladies and ladies.

Many wealthy ladies are trying their best to appear in front of the young emperor - if the little princess of the Mehotofen family is not too protective.

In this context, even though some people have few complaints, they dare not express them easily.

So under the calm, the Holy White Conference gradually got on track within a few days.

After all, when people come here, what they care about is not who owns the title of Lord of Fire, but how to solve the current problem - after all, after witnessing the power displayed by Dusk, everyone understands that the meaning of the Holy Alliance's existence is Civilized self-rescue.

This is the fourth day of the meeting——

The first speaker on this day was an envoy from a small country on the Great Plains. Just like the Bansians, these small countries adjacent to San Osol and Jiufeng are actually more culturally influenced. The influence of the Buga people; therefore, although they have not yet felt the impact of the Twilight War itself, they have endured the pain of its side effects.

Eternal night falls, and the Wizarding War begins. Before people in most areas have put themselves in the shoes of the war they will face, ordinary people in these places on the Great Plains are already struggling to survive these two disasters.

In the north, the invasion of the centaurs and the Bansians caused war to burn across almost the entire Great Plains. Many countries were completely destroyed due to the wizard wars caused by the Sasardians, and the people were in dire straits. But in the south, the situation was even more miserable.

As the eternal night falls in the Sauven area, many countries are completely destroyed. Either meteors and fire rain fall from the sky, or the entire kingdom turns into eternal winter. In some areas, the temperature drops to freezing point between day and night. The residents living in these areas often die overnight.

Most of them froze to death.

Therefore, compared to the Cruz people who are facing the threat of war, these people are more eager to end all this, or at least get help from the outside world, otherwise the order on the Great Plains may collapse at any time.

The envoy came from such a country. He spoke impassionedly in his position and the scenes he described moved many people. Both Jiufeng and Buga people were willing to lend a helping hand to these people - of course, the latter was more

In many places it is out of a compensatory mentality.

"I am very grateful to Jiufeng and Buga wizards for their generosity and selflessness. We have no reason to refuse such goodwill," the envoy bowed and said: "But of course we are here, at this conference, not just for begging -

- No offense, I call it begging, because we have indeed reached such a desperate situation. People need to consider survival first in order to have dignity, but for various reasons, my country and our citizens have lost their

Such a qualification.”

"But just because we are still eager to regain this qualification, I would like to ask, what does this war mean to us? Where does it come from, how long will it last, who is our enemy really, and what are our enemies?

How should we deal with it? I think many people here, like me, are eager to get such an answer."

After he finished speaking, he saluted everyone.

People couldn't help but applaud, and they didn't have any contempt for the other party calling themselves "begging". On the contrary, many people just felt the same. Even the Cruz people had the same sadness in their hearts, although they had not yet fallen.

In this situation, it is obviously not easy to live under someone else's roof.

When disorder began to spread, people's survival options became less and less, and an urgent hope urged them to come here, to Manktor.

So this is exactly the purpose of such a meeting.

The young prime minister Niedwin stood up and replied: "I think our main threat is undoubtedly from the Dragon of Dusk - I believe I don't need to elaborate on its legend. After all, many of us

I grew up listening to Cang Zhi's poems. However, because of the selfless sacrifice of the sage Lord Airanta, the source of all evil is still sealed outside the elemental boundary. Therefore, the enemy we are currently facing is still essentially the same.

It’s its minions—”

"We have heard some rumors about the minions of the Dusk Dragon on the way here," an envoy from Baicheng stood up and asked: "But we know very little about their specific information. We don't know the relationship between the Cruz people and

Elves, are Buga's wizards willing to share information?"

"This is a matter of course." Niedwin replied: "At present, the main enemies faced by the Cruz people are crystal clusters and nightmare insects. In the battles in some areas of Eruin in the south, it is said that Neng people also appeared.

In addition, it is known that demons are also minions of the Twilight Dragon."

"There are also cultists and monsters." At this time, a person suddenly spoke.

Everyone turned around and were shocked to find that the person speaking was the new King of Fire who had been sitting in the center of the round table - His Majesty the Emperor of the Cruz people, Count Tonigel from Eruin.

Brando didn't mind these strange looks. He continued: "Cultists, all things come together, the Silver Serpent and the Tree Shepherd have been seriously injured in several wars. There is nothing to worry about in a short time."

; But the trends in the black forest are still worth noting. The monsters originally came from the bronze clan, but they were infected by the dusk and were no longer the citizens of the ordered world and became our enemies."

"Dear Lord Fire King," another person stood up and asked, "Is your word reliable? I'm talking about the part about monsters."

Brando nodded without hesitation. If others were only slightly aware of the strange movements of monsters, then he had no doubt about it. In history, whether it was a wolf disaster or a harbinger of the coming of crystal clusters, monsters were

The vanguard of the magic tide, the Dragon of Twilight cannot possibly give up such a chess piece.

But there is no doubt that not everyone believes him.

In the opinion of most people, the reason why Brando became the King of Fire is because his title of Emperor Cruz legally conforms to his status as the successor of King of Fire Gilt; but few people have really considered it.

Why did this Eruin man get such a title?

Of course, they would not consider why this young man was recognized by so many people - especially the recognition of the four empires and the Buga people. The standing envoy also glanced at Brando with some hesitation.

Although he did not express his doubts openly, it was just the respect due to His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire.

Brando is very calm about everyone's attitude.

Naturally, he did not choose to come to this position to enjoy the glory and attention that this position provided him. What the aura of Emperor Cruz can provide him now is actually just some empty vanity. As the commander-in-chief of the coalition—

- He is different from his grandfather Darus - arranging troops is not what he is good at, not to mention Brando can't really command the battle. There are many people here who are more professional than him.

Brando is very clear about his advantage, which is his forward-looking vision. At this venue, he understands better than anyone else what this war means; therefore, he also understands better how he should organize these complicated countries.

Integrate with people.

Precisely because we stand higher, we can see further, understand where the road ends, and what kind of coalition Warnd needs.

People looked at each other, and the envoy was a little embarrassed - he made it clear that he didn't believe what Brando said, but he couldn't directly question it. Seeing that Brando had no intention of sitting back, he could only bite the bullet and asked: "Then, Your Majesty, you

How much do you know about these minions of the Dusk Dragon?"

He thought Brando would retreat in spite of the difficulties, but he didn't expect the latter to smile slightly and talk eloquently: "I have already talked about cultists and monsters before, and I would like to remind everyone - especially countries close to the Black Forest.

, we must be wary of unusual movements in the Black Forest, and add more outposts and patrols; and for Saint Osor, the border area between the south of the White Mountains and the Black Forest near the Alkash Mountains is the top priority.

, my suggestion is to dispatch two legions to station in these two places respectively, and don’t worry about involving troops, because it is necessary.”

The wind elves obviously disapproved of this proposal, but Lord Lorraine Dale and their future crown prince did not object. Especially Aluta, who was wearing the ring of the Queen of Winds, nodded slightly. Naturally, the wind elves nobles would not stand.

Rise up and rebel against a regent, a future king.

But the envoy was not from St. Osor, so there was no need to worry about these reasons. He frowned and said thoughtfully: "But Your Majesty, in fact we are more concerned about other issues."

"I understand that people are always full of fear of the unknown," Brando nodded in agreement, "As Mr. Niedwin said before, demons, crystal clusters, nightmare insects and energy tribes are the most powerful under the Dragon of Twilight.

The four powers, but it is actually more than that. The ones who really served as the vanguard of the Twilight Dragon in all the wars were the Fenrir clan who represented the power of destruction."

He paused for a moment before continuing: "Thankfully, in this war, because of the betrayal of its leader, the wolf Isis, the giant wolves may not appear again in the Twilight War - even

He is on our side."

"What!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

In the epics of the past, the giant wolves are one of the most powerful enemies of the order; they are the incarnation of the magic moon, representing the power of destruction. In places where giant wolves appear, the power of tiamat is often destroyed.

Suppressed to the minimum. Myths describe giant wolves devouring the sun and moon, and their results are also the most glorious among the dusk clans. Not only the giant clan was defeated at their hands, but at least three of the golden clans were destroyed in Egypt.

Under Heath's fangs.

If they betray, this news will be of great significance.

The envoy also felt unbelievable and subconsciously asked: "Isis betrayed the Dragon of Dusk. Your Majesty, are your words reliable?"

After saying this, he realized that he had made a mistake and quickly apologized to the Cruz people.

The person who answered on Brando's behalf was a female wizard leader of the Buga people.

Adjani was the one who spoke, and the Queen of Silver, who represents time, replied: "Your Excellency, the King of Fire, is not boasting. Our news comes from some special colleagues, who sent the news back from Bunosong."

It's a witch, people reacted. It is well known that witches are the attendants of the Magic Moon. No one knows Isis and her daughters better than them. From this point of view, the authenticity of the news is almost beyond doubt.

But people still have questions: "But are witches reliable?"

After all, witches often appear in the mortal world with more negative news. Although this is a war of order, except for those fanatics - everyone can be said to be colleagues and comrades-in-arms; however, under traditional thinking, the temporary

Concepts are difficult to change, so it is inevitable that people will ask this question.

"Witches are committed to extracting dark magic from chaos, just like the necromancers of Madara, so people are suspicious of them. In addition, dark magic often infiltrates people's hearts, causing some witches to behave differently.

Ordinary people, thus deepening this suspicion. But in fact, witches have always been committed to fighting against the dusk. The sages began planning this war several eras ago, and the witches came into being. Today you see

Hiss's betrayal was actually no accident, but the result of all the hard work."

Solomon, the king of wizards, suddenly spoke and answered everyone.

Two consecutive Buga wizard leaders came out to explain to Brando, which was obviously so shocking that everyone was stunned for a while and forgot to continue asking questions.

The envoy bowed slightly to the two of them: "It turns out that we have always misunderstood the witches. Let's learn from it, madam."

But another person stood up immediately: "What about the devil?"

"Devils are just the weakest clan among the Twilight clan." Brando replied immediately.

These words immediately caused a murmur among the crowd. Demons are the twilight clan most familiar to mortals. There is no doubt about their power. Many countries have been destroyed because of these terrible monsters, and humans have never even really invaded.

The territory of demons.

And in the mouth of this young Flame King, they are actually the weakest?

People inevitably have new doubts.

"Your Majesty, will you take responsibility for your words?" the man asked reluctantly.

This was almost a direct question. Before Brando could speak, a sharp-tongued voice rang out: "I don't think anyone is more qualified to take responsibility for this sentence than him."

Everyone turned around and saw the little female dragon Aloz climbed onto her chair at some point - standing on her chair, she was only a head taller than the others: "How many of you are there?"

Have you ever personally seen a demon or dealt with a demon? But the man in front of you personally drove the demon army back to the scorched prison just three years ago!"

"What I want to remind you is that the invasion of demons in Ampelsel was planned by the Oneness of All Things. The Temple of Fire also recorded that battle as a bystander. This is not some far-fetched rumor.

, and regarding the invasion itself, perhaps the Buga people have the most say.”

She looked at Solomon, and the Wizard King nodded expressionlessly: "What we can know is that the scale of the invasion was not small, but there was very little news about it, so the demonic invasion was rarely prevented.

The invasion at the place where it took place. I once said that Mr. Brando is a hero. This is not a compliment, but because he deserves this honor - he personally ended a medium-sized demon invasion."

The envoy stayed where he was.

Everyone also showed expressions of disbelief. They had heard many rumors about demons invading and destroying the country. If it were not for the joint intervention of the Buga people and the Temple of Flame and the Temple of the Wind Queen in the Silver Bay area, there would have been even more trouble.

The memory of the terrible disaster is still vivid in many people's minds.

And what kind of heroism does it take for one person to be able to turn the tide in such a desperate situation?

Many Eruin people at the meeting even had a look of pride on their faces - many of them were witnesses of that year, personally participated in that war, and witnessed the birth of the miracle in the rain. The heroic glory of that day has become a monument erected in the hearts of the Eruin people today.

The Baicheng envoy who had sat back could not help but stand up again at this moment and bowed deeply to Brando.

This is a courtesy to a hero.

Brando accepted it calmly.

Not only because he has this qualification, but more importantly because he has this need. He glanced at the little dragon and Solomon with some gratitude, but he must turn the halo of titles on himself into a real The right to speak - and this was exactly the original intention of him getting up to answer this question.

The venue fell silent.

"Then Your Majesty the King of Fire...do you know more about the demons?" the previous envoy asked stammeringly.

Brando did not mind the other party's previous offense, but replied calmly: "Although the demons are powerful, the demon lord died early in the fourth war, leaving the seven demon kings to do their own thing. For this reason, their threat has been reduced to the minimum level through constant internal friction."

"But in the previous Cruz War, wasn't the root cause of the war the invasion of Jorgendigon by demons, which led to the migration of Jorgendigon people on the surface?" Someone in the crowd asked.

"That's just what the Dragon Queen said. In fact, the demons just invaded the Ash Point and occupied the territory of the Dark Elves and Medusa. They are still very far away from the real Jorgendigon. The migration of Jorgendigon's people is not so much It was caused by the devil, rather it was the Dragon Queen's plan, and it was all just a lie."

Brando paused for a moment: "Of course, the demons' changes are not without origin, but because they sense that a demon king in the surface world is about to be resurrected."

"A demon king from the surface world?"

"It was the demon king Akantu. In the Battle of Tianqing, the demons suffered heavy losses. Several demon kings also died one after another, and the most powerful demon king Akantu was killed by the Buga people. The giant dragons jointly sealed it in the Realm of Stagnation. But after tens of thousands of years, this seal has begun to loosen, so the demons launched an attack on them under the guidance of their servants in the surface world-the sheep-headed cultists. Attack of the Ashtips."

These secrets were heard for the first time by many people present, and many people could not help but look surprised. They obviously did not expect that this young King of Flame would be so knowledgeable, if not convinced Due to the identity of the other party, many people would think that it was a Buga man telling them all this.

"So what about the Demon King? If the seal has been loosened, will he pose a threat to us?" Someone else asked.

"It's nothing to worry about," Princess Magdalet stood up and answered proactively: "Because it's already dead."

"Dead?" The man was stunned.

"Arkentu died in the realm of stagnation. It was Mr. Brando who did it himself. We recaptured the natural orb there - the Holy Sword Green Soul. I have experienced all this and can testify." Magdal. The princess replied calmly.

"I have also experienced all this," Aloz said quickly: "The dragons can also testify."

The Buga people also nodded. As the sealers of Akentu, they were naturally the first to notice everything that happened in the Stagnation Realm.

The venue fell silent at first, and people finally looked at Brando with something strange. It seemed that until this moment, they recalled the scene when Brando won the throne of the King of Fire - no wonder there were so many

The country and forces endorsed him behind his back.

This kind of curiosity is often superficial, but it is enough to prompt people to learn more about the life of His Majesty the King of Fire.

"To be able to kill a demon lord, you must be at least a sword master, right? So young?"

"That's not surprising. I heard that His Majesty the King of Fire is a descendant of the Earth Sword Saint, and his grandfather is a true Ultimate Sword Saint."

People gasped for air at the Extreme Sword Master. For most people, that was the limit of Rilang they knew.

But someone else said: "Haven't you heard that not only his grandfather, but also his teacher was the Ultimate Sword Saint, the Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles." This was undoubtedly the speech of a Cruz man.

Rumors like this began to become more frequent in whispers.

However, those who can provide the most accurate information are still the people of Eruin. After all, throughout Eruin, the life of this Earl has already become three-dimensional and rich through rumors from all aspects.

The two Black Rose Wars saved a kingdom from collapse several times.

But afterwards, under the different eyes of everyone, he walked away like a truly noble knight, leaving only a crown for his students and his beloved princess.

If killing the Demon King is just a manifestation of strength, then everything about him in Eruin is a true legend.

In this era when most people have romantic feelings about the true way of chivalry, such deeds are often more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. What people miss is not only the light and shadow of the sword, but also the love and hatred behind it. And a

The living, flesh-and-blood Earl, his love, ideals and beliefs with Princess Griffin are often more likely to leave a mark on people's hearts.

A person with great power will be respected by people. But a person with ideals and beliefs can be truly respected by people.

Brando is naturally far from being a sage, but the selflessness he left to Eruin has also gone a long way to shine in this era. In a sense, he even replaced the ancestor Ek in Eruin.

Because of the status in people's hearts.

And this is what is so valuable, even the Cruz people looked at their new emperor with a hint of respect in their eyes.

Not to mention others.

"This is the character of a true swordsman," Mr. Liu sighed, with a look of admiration on his face: "Your Highness Huang Huo, I never thought that Rosalin and our party would be able to get to know such a hero."

Huang Huo nodded seriously, already convinced in her mind that her teacher was the most outstanding person in the world.

Beside the two of them, Fang Qi sighed heavily. He looked in the direction of Delphine and finally shook his head.

Among Toquinin's lions, Neil Fisher looked at the holy sword in front of him with a face of shame. And a man came to it quietly and said to the lion prince: "Nair

Your Highness, Mr. Brando’s deeds are rare in the world, but there may not be only one hero.”

"You're right," Nel sighed and replied: "Miss Tix, but I am not frustrated, but ashamed. A hero should move forward courageously, but I am actually jealous of a true knight.

, making myself look like a villain."

"Then be more frank, and you may not be forgiven. Brave people are not only brave when facing the enemy, right?"

The Lion Prince nodded: "You are right, Miss Tix, I will do that."

The human girl smiled slightly: "This is exactly what I admire about you, Your Highness."

People have been impressed by Brando, and naturally they will no longer question what he said. Some people took the opportunity to ask: "So how can we win in this seemingly desperate war, Your Majesty?"

Someone else asked: "Can we really defeat the Dragon of Dusk?"

In the face of a powerful enemy, it is inevitable that some people will have doubts, not because they want to surrender, but because they cannot see hope.

But Brando shook his head: "If the Dragon of Twilight is really invincible, there is no need to wait until today when it is our turn to take over this war."

"But today we are just a group of mortals," the man asked: "In this era when Warnd's power of order is at its weakest, how can we defeat an enemy that even Martha has not defeated?"

Brando stood up.

He looked at everyone.

"Our world is constantly bleeding, and the war with the Dragon of Twilight has left us scarred—"

"In the past era, we have witnessed the passing of many heroes, just like the stars that guided us in the darkness, extinguished little by little. What is left seems to be a hopeless, bleak

In the night sky, in this darkness that stretches across the sky, even the gods have lost hope."

The venue fell silent. People were attracted by Brando's actions and surprised by his words. Everyone raised their heads to see what the young King of Flame had to say.

"but--"

Brando raised his voice: "We cannot deny the efforts of our forefathers. What they bought for us with their deepest despair was not a real, bleak future - the price paid for the ordered world.

And what about our enemies?"

"...The Lord of Demons died under the Green Sword, and the Mother of Nightmare Insects also lost her body in the glow of the Holy Spear. As for the first-generation witch in the Order World, her existence has long been unknown.

Perhaps she has turned into a historical ghost, but it is what this ghost left behind that now makes Isis betray her master, and those who were our most powerful enemies have also fallen one by one.

"

"Now, three of the five lords under the Dusk Dragon have gone; before our eyes, we have lost the stars in the night sky that looks lonely and boundless, but it is not a precursor to the arrival of eternal night, on the contrary -"

Brando replied word for word: "The reason why the stars disappeared one by one is because the dawn is coming."
