Akane, Namenis, Huque and Sanford all stood quietly behind him.
Brando held a rough stone slab in his hand and looked in the direction of the valley through the layers of broken walls in the elven ruins - lizardmen appeared one after another in that direction, and short figures emerged from the forest.
A flash passed through the gap, and those unevolved reptiles occasionally appeared and disappeared from time to time. Brando took a look and roughly estimated that the number of the opponents was at least two groups and no less than three hundred. As for the ones behind,
There may be more. It seems that Ukhkil and Conrad have merged. They are very vigilant. The young man confirmed this.
He raised his head and saw another sunny day. The sky was so blue that it turned purple. The sunlight flowed quietly from the forest in the afternoon, making the tree crowns far and near seep out a dazzling green.
He narrowed his eyes.
There was a faint smell of blood in the air. Although the battlefield had been cleaned, the atmosphere of the previous fighting was inevitably still there. The slate in the young man's hand was the Sage Slate, about the size of a fist. There was a talisman etched on the front of the slate.
Wen. That rune is pronounced 'eaam', which means earth in the earliest ancient glyphs - the earth carries life and wisdom.
The slate has been obtained, which means that his original goal of coming here has been achieved at least half. What remains is how to obtain Medisa's necklace - from the lizard man.
But just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly heard a rustling sound behind him. Brando turned around, just in time to see the Elf Princess tying up her long silver hair on her shoulders, wearing a holy white armor, holding her lone
The horned beast came over - the armor of the Silver Elf royal family was so gorgeous that Brando was almost dazzled at first, thinking that the princess knight was wearing a princess dress with silver armor leaves. Medisa used
She glanced at him with eyes as transparent as glass, smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "Thank you, Lord Lord——"
"This is an agreement." Brando finally looked away from the other party and replied.
Medisa blushed. Brando's words reminded her of everything that happened that day. She had never been so scared that she cried in front of so many people, completely throwing away the royal etiquette.
ah.
She couldn't help but glance to the other side - she saw the red-haired girl named Akane standing alone a little further away, in the shadow under the tree canopy, her eyes in the darkness were as burning as amber in the flames.
Shenghui. She leaned on her slender thunder gun and looked outside. She seemed a little quiet. Brando had already told her about everything that had happened before, the blood of God, and the disbandment of the Gray Wolf mercenary group. Listen.
After that, she stayed like this.
Neither sad nor angry.
"What will happen to that sister?" Medisa turned around and asked softly.
"The blood of God is rooted in her body, and the pollution cannot be eradicated. She can only rely on willpower to suppress it. Once she loses control, she will eventually become an envoy. But being an envoy is just a beautiful title.
That's it, rather than a monster." Brando replied, but he had another way. That is to seal Akane as a card after obtaining her consent, because the connection with the rules has been established, and all that is left is to
A contract would be enough. But being sealed from a living being into a card seemed too harsh for a free person, so Brando made up his mind not to say anything until the last minute.
Come up with this method.
After hearing his words, the silver elf girl frowned unbearably. However, the inherent quietness of this race prevented her from saying anything more.
Brando didn't say anything, and his eyes stayed on the mercenaries not far away. These mercenaries were hiding in the ruins composed of the masterpieces of the Silver Elf architects thousands of years ago, and their crossbows were pointing at each other.
The lizardmen in front, so that these guys would not immediately drop their weapons and run away. In fact, Brando attacked and razed the lizardman bandit's lair a few hours ago.
With the help of gold-level combat power - plus twenty Silver Elf Guards who still had mid-level silver strength, the more than two hundred lizardmen who stayed behind were just transformed into Brando.
Just experience.
As for the rest, they are all facades in front of them, acting as a cover-up for Brando.
"Brando."
Hearing this familiar voice with a little complacency, Brando knew who was calling him without looking back. So he simply didn't bother to look back, stretched his palms back flatly over his shoulders, and asked:
"So fast?"
Roman came over with Antitina. She calmly placed three thumb-sized, gray-white translucent crystals on his palm, and replied: "Of course, Sir Roman is very efficient. This is for you.
Yes, Brando, everyone and the elves have distributed a copy according to your instructions. All the preparations have been done, just waiting for your order."
"It's a pity that the materials have been used up." Although Antitina looked tired, she still managed to smile: "Otherwise, I could make more. I have used all the base materials that I have used before.
, the sample of the magic power transmission device was also dismantled according to your instructions, including the rough stones inside."
Brando nodded and carefully inserted the disintegrating crystals into his belt piece by piece. Then he took the long sword from Huque's hand and pointed outside: "The other party is very wary, we can't deceive them for long. Wait until we get close.
At a certain distance, I will attract their attention. Medissa and Qian, you come with me. Our goal is to entangle Conard and the Earth Angel in the lizardman army. As for the other miscellaneous fish, we will leave it to them.
Namenes and his people should be fine."
The silver elf commander glanced here and nodded.
"Don't just nod, Commander," Brando didn't intend to let him go: "Don't forget your promise."
Namenis smiled slightly: "We'll see."
Medissa looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile softly.
"Qian, do you have any questions?" Brando asked again.
"I understand." The red-haired girl nodded slightly and responded.
"Huque, your mission is to follow and cover behind the Silver Elf allies," at the same time the young man added in his heart: "Pay attention to protecting the Gray Wolf mercenaries, they are not as resurrected as you." Seeing Huque nodding,
He then turned back to Sanford and said: "You are the same, take care to protect yourselves. Only by surviving can you enjoy victory——"
"Of course, Lord." The young man nodded respectfully.
Brando glanced around at the people present, and then felt relieved. Apart from Namenis, almost all of his team members were present. Of course, Leto might still have some power, but that
After all, a group of mercenaries were different from these people. In fact, he also understood that in the eyes of these mercenaries, Leto's status and prestige were probably higher than his. But these people in front of him here all knew the basics.
Not to mention Huque, Medissa, Antitina and the Gray Wolf mercenary group have no one to rely on except him, so naturally they don't have any unnecessary thoughts.
Of course, he thinks so because he doesn’t believe Leto, but he knows his power from a distance and knows his heart over time, and Brando will not hand over his details so easily. He has seen a lot of betrayal dramas, and those with you today
Even in games, people who call themselves brothers and stab each other in the back are everywhere, let alone reality.
After arranging everyone's tasks, he turned back and continued to observe the lizard people's movements in the forest - Conrad and Uhqil didn't seem to notice anything unusual here, but Brando didn't expect to be able to hide it from them for long.
Just one round of first move is enough.
The nearest lizard man has arrived two miles away, and numerous shadows have begun to appear in the forest. The lizard man does not seem to let the dragon hunting cavalry separate the vanguard like marching in the wild. For Brando, this is a
The great news is that the opponent is very relaxed, and the first blow to them will be a bigger blow soon.
Seven hundred meters.
Brando read this value from the distance plug-in;
When a huge number of lizard warriors passed through the forest, it seemed that the entire valley made a rustling sound, as if water was flowing through the forest, and like countless ants running on the ground. In fact, Brando could already see
The mercenaries who were ambushing on their side put their hands on their belts. There was the disintegration crystal given to them by Antitina. Although this thing is not large in size, it has about 15'oz' of energy in an instant.
, the lethality can be equal to the magic arrow of a low-level black iron elementalist.
Five hundred meters.
A large number of lizard people have appeared in the forest. Characters with high perception levels such as Brando, Namenis, Medisa and Qian can almost clearly see the expressions on the faces of those lizard people. These people who have been running around all night
The warriors looked tired, and they were probably completely unaware that they would be attacked on their doorstep.
The red-haired girl squatted down, pulled out a blade of grass from the ground and bit it in her mouth. Then she frowned and searched for the familiar figure in the forest - Conrad. She squeezed the thunder gun until it rattled.
.
The lizardmen continued to move forward. In fact, at this time, they could already notice that the silence in the ruins was abnormal. It was just a kind of inertia that drove the army forward, but soon, Brando saw more than ten hunters.
The dragoons passed through the crowd, and where they passed, the lizardmen stopped one after another. They were discovered! Brando immediately realized this, and to his chagrin, Conrad and the lizardman leader Uhekiel arrived.
It never appeared from beginning to end, and the other party's alertness was beyond his expectation.
But he no longer cared about that much, he raised his arm - the ruby ring on his index finger was in a straight line with the direction of the forest, and then a red light flashed, as if the sun's light dimmed for a moment. A huge fireball erupted from the forest.
It rose up in the sky, accompanied by countless leaves flying into the air, and then everyone heard a loud bang. The heat wave swept across the entire forest like a shock wave against the ground, and the mercenaries, elves and Bran were swept away with a 'whoosh'.
The hair of many people is blowing up.
Hot wind hits my face.
Brando learned from the retinal data that he had killed at least twenty lizardmen with this blow. This was an unexpected gain, indicating that the opponent's formation was densely packed. But this was just a signal to attack.
, Immediately, the mercenaries threw the disintegrating crystals in their hands towards the area where the fireball was aimed - three hundred meters, which is not too far for people with black iron level strength, and only those thumb-sized crystals were visible.
A bright flash of light drew an arc in mid-air, and then fell into the forest like a burst of rain.
A moment of silence.
But that was the silence before the storm. A white light, then a second one, one after another, flashed in the forest. Then the explosions sounded continuously, and the sound waves seemed to lift up the ground.
Yes, almost everyone felt the earth shaking for at least a minute - those who narrowed their eyes because of the huge explosion, when they came back to their senses again, they found that the forest landscape in front of them had changed permanently.
The ground has changed.
The explosion almost created a vacuum zone in the middle of the forest. Tall trees were uprooted or toppled around, but what made people feel even more miserable were the lizardmen covered by the explosion - there were at least a whole squadron of more than a hundred of them there.
But at this moment, they have become mutilated corpses, blood mixed with soil, soaked with crimson internal organs hanging on the branches, everywhere - the scene is simply reminiscent of hell.
Even Brando couldn't help but retched, but he suppressed the nausea and began to recalculate the comparison between ourselves and the enemy.
In fact, the number of lizard warriors brought out by Uchkiel yesterday was the largest, at least more than 400. Brando suspected that if it were not for search needs, this arrogant lizard would not be willing to give one of his men to Connor.
Priests of Germany and Darkness, anyway, they also have Black Fire Cultists or Dark Mercenaries under their command, which is enough to protect themselves - of course, that is if they really think that there are only a dozen Silver-level guards around him.
Then add in Conrad's part and the dark mercenaries, then the total number of enemies they have to face is at least seven hundred, which is really not a small number. Even if they kill a little more than 10% in one go,
But the rest is not so easy to handle.
Must do it again.
Then he understood that it was time for him to appear next. He immediately gave a signal to Medissa and Qian, asking them to get ready to fight out with him.
