Brando stood up and walked to Funia, put his hand on the little girl's young shoulder, patted her gently and replied Wen Yan, "Funiya is a sensible child," he raised his head and looked at the figure
The tall Druid elder. "I regard Funya as my sister, so I entrust her to you in compliance with her wishes. As for whether she can become a people of the forest (in Warnd, another Druid
I don't care, but I ask you to ensure her safety." He paused and said in a more serious tone: "Can this be done?"
Andrew nodded: "You don't need to say it, Lord."
"Thank you, Brother Brando." Funya grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands, raised her head and replied obediently.
Brando smiled slightly and touched her forehead. The little girl's seriousness and sensibleness were naturally lovable everywhere, but in fact Brando didn't care about what she said about asking the Druid to 'align' with him.
It can be seen that Andrew was not willing at first, but since they have the connection of Valhalla, this alliance is actually a natural thing.
He turned back and said to the noble girl: "Antitina, take Funya to prepare the things for the journey."
"Eh?" The noble daughter looked at Andrew, as if she had just come back from her thoughts. She looked at Brando in confusion, "Shall I go?"
"Of course," Brando replied: "Although Funya is still a child, she is a girl after all. Naturally, only you girls know what you should bring. Otherwise, you can only let Roman do it for you -"
The young man smiled and changed the subject: "But are you relieved to leave Funia to her?"
Antitina thought of the carefree look of the businesswoman, and was afraid that if she was asked to help Funya prepare her luggage, she would put a bag full of her favorite glass beads into the little girl's small backpack - even though those
Each glass bead she spent a lot of effort to buy from those merchants when she was in Butchi. She couldn't help but sigh: "But...can't Qian?"
"She is not as careful as you." Brando replied.
Antitina glanced at him, feeling inexplicably happy. But when she saw Brando's eyes, she knew that the other party might have something else. She thought for a moment and simply asked: "Is there anything else?"
Is this your order, Lord?"
"Inform Kerenthia and ask them to come see me." Brando replied.
Antitina nodded. She walked over and took Funia's little hand. She took the little girl who turned back three times and went out and closed the door. When they left, only Andrew and Brando were left in the house.
And the elf girl holding a record book and standing next to the young man with her head bowed.
"Does the lord have any other orders?" Andrew looked at this young man who was very ambitious in his eyes, and then asked. Although he was unworldly, this mature Druid elder knew clearly about Brando.
Putting Funya away is not as simple as simply preparing her luggage. "We are druids and we don't know how to talk in roundabout ways. Lord, please speak frankly."
"I'm very busy, so I won't see you off on the next journey." Brando replied: "I do have something to say here. I know you have a question about the alliance between you and me.
A dispensable mentality——"
"Lord." Red, who was behind Andrew, frowned and interrupted him. But he immediately saw Brando waving his hand to him.
"Wait until I finish speaking." Brando said: "I know the Druid's attitude towards the Black Forest, including the agreement between you and Niya. This is your tradition, but I also have some words.
I want to tell you that the power of chaos is very strong."
"Are you a member of the Oneness of All Things?" Andrew's eyes turned cold: "Silver Serpent? Tree Shepherd, or Sheephead Cultist?"
"I thought you would put the tree wrangler at the front."
The elder Druid snorted coldly.
"None of them," but Brando shook his head. "Those you mentioned happen to be my enemies."
"But the enemy of my enemy is not always my friend."
"Indeed," the young lord added almost without thinking: "But you and I both understand that this era is about to end, and the strong period of the Demon Moon is coming - the last magic tide ended the era of chaos. This time
No one knows what will happen. In such an environment, if you want to inhibit the growth of the Black Forest, it is nothing short of a fantasy."
"so what?"
"I know much more about the Black Forest than you do."
Andrew crossed his arms and looked at the young man with extreme suspicion. They were people who had been dealing with the black forest all their lives, but now a stranger told them: he knew this forest better than they did. That feeling was even worse than
It's even more ridiculous to do whatever you want to do, it's simply unwarranted arrogance.
Brando just laughed: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Recall that before the age of chaos, Warnd's area was less than a quarter of what it is today. Who opened up such a vast territory and turned the thorny black forest into a
Has it become the civilized land it is today?”
Andrew was a little proud: "It's a Druid."
Brando still shook his head. "To be precise, they are the ancient druids of the Ring of the World. After the fall of the Tower of Babel, the Dragon of Darkness scattered the Druids into the wilderness, and the Ring of the World exploded.
*, turned into today's tree shepherds and orthodox Druid sect." He paused, "I don't need to say this?"
"The lord is indeed knowledgeable."
"No, it's just that we have this in common," Brando sighed deliberately, "Since the fall of the Tower of Babel, there has been a rift between the ancient magic system and the modern magic system. Both druids and wizards have
I'm looking for ancient heritage, but I happen to know a member of the Dragon Clan, and I happen to have some knowledge of the Druid's teachings."
"Do you know ancient magic?" Andrew's eyes became sharp in a flash. He knew that the only known golden remnant in the world is the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan is also the only existence today that understands ancient string magic, although Druid magic is more mysterious.
Rune magic, but mysterious knowledge are often common. Moreover, since Brando said this, there must be his hidden meaning.
If he can't understand anymore, he will be a real fool.
"auis eaam rs," Brando said the spell almost word by word. "Have you ever heard of the Seed of Life?" He raised his head and asked: "You should understand what I mean by this sentence.
"
The expressions of the three druids suddenly changed. The seed of life mentioned by Brando is the tree species of the Elf Tree. Tree shepherds often transform this thing into a golden magic tree, but the Holy Tree of Life is the only one they found that can
Effectively transform the tree species of the Black Forest. However, living tree species are inherently rare. In addition to artificial cultivation, the only way to find ancient heritage is in the ruins.
After all, it is a legacy from ancient times.
They all heard that the part Brando recited was a transformation spell. The core rune is 'eaam', which represents the earth. It is very likely that it is the 'Language of Nature' in ancient Druid spells. According to legend, it can be directly
Completely purify a black forest and save it from the erosion of magic power. However, that kind of magic has not existed in this world for more than a thousand years. If there are not some records in ancient books, I am afraid that the three of them can only hear that part at most.
Spells are somewhat related to Druid spells.
Andrew looked at Brando with a complex expression: "The language of nature?"
Brando nodded.
"Lord, do you know this spell? Are you a druid?"
Brando shook his head. In fact, he was not unfamiliar with this thing, because the spells were written on ancient stone tablets. In the later stages of the game, almost every player knew it more or less. However, he could not use it just because he knew it.
This spell is only written on ancient stone tablets, and the wizard war later broke out because of this reason. Simply put, this is a gimmick, it looks beautiful, but is actually worthless.
But it is enough to attract the attention of these druids.
Sure enough, Andrew frowned: "What does that mean?"
"To put it simply, I am equally interested in the Black Forest," Brando replied, "However, as strong as the order is, the resistance from Chaos will be stronger, so fighting alone is not the most perfect way to solve the problem.
"He said while picking up a candle from the table, "Druids are used to solving problems from the perspective of the laws of the world and nature, but the forest goddess has actually pointed out another way for you."
"What way?" Andrew asked.
Brando carefully used scissors to cut off the forked section of the candle's cotton wick, and then lit it. He raised his head and said: "That is to borrow the power of people." He replied, "Since the Year of Chaos, except for the limited 'church'
—Outside of the traditional model of pioneering knights, civilizations have rarely expanded the scope of their guardian lands. However, due to the lack of territory and the encroachment of magic erosion, wars within civilizations are increasing day by day——"
As soon as he stopped, the topic changed: "But I plan to create a new model to end all this. Even if it is just an attempt," the young lord smiled slightly, "But I am confident. I just don't know if you have any
not interested."
Andrew lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Lord, you might as well just say it."
"What I mean is," Brando said, while picking up the envelope on the table, he tilted the candle slightly, letting the hot oil wax drip on the envelope. "Transform Eruin into a person who is full of vitality and constantly expanding outwards.
s country--"
The three druids all took a breath of air. Andrew expected Brando's ambition, but he didn't expect that this young man's ambition would be so big. His goal was far more than just a prince, it was to change
This ancient kingdom. They could even hear that his tone was much more than that.
Expansive Eruin.
This young man wanted to build an empire with his own hands.
Ambition is a good thing for some people, but it caused Andrew to feel deeply uneasy. He glanced at Brando warily. "Expansion brings bloodshed and war, which is contrary to our beliefs," he whispered.
Said, to avoid causing the other party's displeasure, "Therefore, Lord, if you want to use this to induce us to join you, I'm afraid you are wrong."
"War is inevitable," Brando flattened the candle and took off the Wind Queen's ring. "However, for me, war is a means to protect myself. Because you may have misunderstood the meaning of this expansion -"
"Wait, you mean?" Andrew interrupted in disbelief.
Brando nodded seriously, "The expansion I'm talking about is aimed at the wilderness." He pressed the Wind Queen's ring on the wax juice, and then lifted it up: "Use the power of the whole country to open up new territories in the wilderness."
