Brando's surprise lasted until he heard a soft 'ding' sound, and he woke up suddenly with a start, and saw the Cruz goddess of war knocking the dagger out of Akane's hand with a cold face.
The dagger fell into the grass——
The red-haired girl raised her head. She held her right wrist with one hand and glared at the old woman with her little tiger teeth without saying a word. This was the second time she had suffered a loss at the hands of the other party, especially the kind like her.
The look-down attitude made her very uncomfortable.
If the lord was not still in the opponent's hands, she would have looked at Veronica bitterly.
But Veronica also didn't speak. She dragged Brando and walked backwards, diving into the grass, regardless of whether Qian was still following behind.
"Ms. Veronica, you are not very polite like this -" Brando was grabbed by a hand on the shoulder, as if clamped by a steel pliers, unable to move his whole body - even though he was pulled backwards by the majestic Imperial Goddess of War
Living and dragging in the grass is quite a special experience. In the past, if someone was so 'intimately' contacted by Veronica in the game, they would be so flattered that they would immediately go to the forum and post a message.
But now Brando doesn't think this is anything worth showing off.
Veronica seemed to have not heard what he said, dragging him deep into the grass, and then turned back and said coldly: "Mr. Brando, you will only have the chance to be polite if you survive on the battlefield."
After Veronica finished speaking, her hand loosened, and Brando suddenly felt that he had regained control of his body. He took a breath, grinned and rubbed his shoulders, thinking that this old woman was really strong.
"Okay, where are Faina and the others?" Veronica asked.
As soon as Brando's movements stopped, "Miss Faina and Sir Elman left when the wolf crisis started," he replied without changing his face. In fact, saying this could not be completely regarded as a lie.
——If we say that the "Wolf's Trouble Begins" means within an hour of the Black Wolf's attack on the Wall of Roses.
Veronica looked at Brando without saying a word. She put one hand under her cloak. This subtle movement did not escape Brando's eyes. He thought there must be a lie detection gem there.
class of things.
It would be easy for ordinary people to overlook these inconspicuous details, but for players who have been tested in the game for a long time, all kinds of tricks are no longer new.
"You didn't kill them?" Veronica asked with a frown.
Brando took a breath, and he finally confirmed the reason why Veronica took action just now - this woman came exactly for Faina.
This means that she has not met the Wither Lord yet.
He looked above his head. The fog was slowly spreading over the forest, which meant that the valley would soon become unsafe.
"Why should I kill them? I have no reason to start a war." Brando looked away. He had completely calmed down and looked at Veronica with dark brown eyes.
Veronica breathed a sigh of relief, but for some reason, she suddenly remembered the noble daughter from Eruin next to Brando - the answers from the master and the servant were so out of control, she couldn't help but
Shake his head.
"Can you take me to find them, Mr. Brando?"
"I'm afraid this is impossible!" Brando flatly refused. Faina had already been snatched away by the Wither Lord Andesa. Ronno and Elman were also dead. They were nowhere to be found. No one knew better than him.
at this point.
What's more, he has more important tasks to complete, so he can't waste time looking for someone.
"You know very well, Ms. Veronica," Brando replied: "I do not bear any responsibility for the disappearance of Viscount Elman and Miss Faina."
Veronica was noncommittal about this answer. She just stared at Brando, as if she wanted to read the true intentions in his eyes.
The atmosphere was a little dull for a while.
It was at this time that the grass made a soft sound, and Akane parted from the grass to follow. She saw Brando confronting Veronica. She was startled for a moment and then planned to walk to Brando.
But Qian didn't expect that as soon as she moved, a cold long sword was placed across her throat.
Veronica pressed her sword against Akane's snow-white neck.
"What do you mean?" Brando's eyes jumped, and he looked at Veronica in disbelief.
"Sorry, young man." Veronica replied coldly: "If you don't agree, I'm afraid I will have to take your companion away."
"Is this a threat?"
Brando took a breath.
This female war goddess of the empire is known for her integrity and uprightness in history, and she had a relationship with the Valkyrie Freya as both a teacher and a friend. However, she did not expect that one day she would threaten two of her descendants with a sword; Brando Looking at Veronica's even somewhat indifferent face, I realized that I had underestimated the importance of the little princess with a floral collar in the mind of the Imperial War Goddess.
"Ms. Veronica, as you can see, the demonic tide that appears in the forest is invading this area, and I was entrusted by the druids to go to the center of the Ring of Trade Winds to reforge order in order to prevent the Green Tower from being destroyed. "Under the wolf's mouth." He changed his answer and replied: "As a descendant of the King of Fire, you should be very clear about the consequences if the demonic tide is not controlled-"
"What does that have to do with me? I am a noble of the empire, not a saint who saves the world?" Veronica raised her eyebrows, full of the majesty that a legion commander should have.
"But giving up saving more people for one person, isn't that your wish?" Brando looked at Veronica and replied: "Maybe Miss Faina is the only heir to Grand Duke Huaye, but in Here, her life is not much more noble than others."
"You're right," Veronica sighed, but she shook her head: "There's no point, you should know my identity."
She grabbed Akane's shoulders, causing the girl to frown in pain. "Then I'm sorry, since you don't want to, then I have no choice but to take away your companions so that you can follow."
"I'm sorry, but I must obey—!" Brando replied in a deep voice.
He was very dissatisfied with the Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles who came out of nowhere to trouble him, but at this time Veronica's unreasonable attitude really ignited the anger in Brando's heart. .
Now that the negotiation has broken down, he no longer needs to endure it. He lowers his head directly, and the sword of earth in his hand has already drawn a dark sword light and stabbed Veronica - in front of Veronica, who is far more powerful than him, only The first step is to gain the upper hand.
But Brando's decisiveness did not surprise Veronica. After the battle in the Centaur Market, she already knew that this young man's character would never give in easily. As soon as Brando drew his sword, he was right behind her Within expectations.
"You don't overestimate your own capabilities." The imperial goddess of war snorted softly, and struck the Sword of the Earth in Brando's hand with her sword.
In Brando's view, this casual sword was more like a sword curtain. He didn't think much, just threw his hand back on the ground and shot Veronica close to the ground.
His sword instead slashed at Veronica's feet. The purpose was not to maim the imperial goddess of war with one sword, but to force the opponent back so that Veronica could let go of Akane.
Veronica was obviously slightly surprised by Brando's reaction. Her previous sword had used the Sword Curtain, the inheritance of the Blue Sword Saint for generations, but she didn't expect that Brando would predict her when she made the move.
.
How talented is this little guy in swordsmanship?
It was too late to change her moves, Veronica had to let go of Akane and retreat, but Brando still had to pay the price for her retreat. As she retreated, she raised her hand and swung a sword energy to hit Brando's sword.
On the blade.
There was a crisp sound of 'dang', almost as if the two swords were actually intersecting.
At that moment, Brando felt that what he was fencing with was not a sword energy but a dragon. The power responded from Veronica's sword energy was so majestic that it was almost unstoppable. Before he had time to react, his whole body was like a dragon.
It was swept away like a cannonball.
Brando hit the sand with a 'bang' and felt dizzy for a moment. But he was not surprised by the result. He immediately got up, just in time to see Qian roll away from Veronica's hand.
Unfortunately, although the red-haired girl's reaction was fast, it was still too slow compared to Veronica's speed. The female swordsman retreated, and then immediately stretched her body to try to catch the escaping Akane.
She just took a step forward and rushed behind Qian. Qian gritted her teeth and pulled out the dagger and tried to resist, but Veronica knocked the dagger out of Qian's hand without even looking at it, and then grabbed Qian's shoulder.
Brando naturally couldn't let her have her wish.
Without thinking, the young lord threw the Sword of Earth at Veronica. The Sword of Earth drew a straight line in mid-air and brought up a row of spikes that protruded from the ground and pierced towards Veronica.
Veronica.
Veronica frowned and could only step back to avoid the sharp edge of the Earth Sword, letting the sword flash past her with rows of rock thorns.
But as soon as she stopped, she didn't expect Brando to use his hand to form a sword and swing a white crow sword energy to form a whirlwind. This sword energy struck the sword of the earth first and pulled it back from mid-air.
After the Earth Sword turned around in mid-air, it stabbed Veronica again——
The imperial goddess of war was finally taken aback. She did not expect that the thrown sword would have a second attack - especially although the sword had lost its accuracy, the rock thorns it brought up did not lack in attack power at all.
Veronica had no choice but to stop and hit the Sword of the Earth away with a backhand sword, and Brando manipulated the airflow of the White Crow Swordsmanship to once again gain control of the Sword of the Earth, causing the holy sword to draw a line in the air.
The arc falls into his own hands.
When Brando caught the sword, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The two combos of throwing the sword were almost a stroke of genius. Even he himself never thought that he could succeed.
But if I had to use one word to describe his mood at this moment, it would be simply too handsome.
So much so that he was stunned for a moment while holding the sword.
"Little guy, this is not White Crow Swordsmanship. This skill is almost close to the original version!" Otales's voice immediately sounded in his heart, and she couldn't help but sigh: "If I hadn't known that you had never learned Feng
The elf’s secret sword Feng Wu, I’m going to doubt your origin——”
"However, your swordsmanship talent is so amazing, it's unbelievable."
Brando did not respond to the female knight's words. He just raised his head and looked at Veronica - the imperial female war goddess was forced to stop by him and had already let Akane escape from her hands. The red-haired girl was almost gone at this moment.
Came to Brando's side.
Although there is not much distance between them.
But Brando knows that this is enough——
At this moment, Veronica withdrew the sword with a cold face. She saw the look of relief on the young man's face, and her expression suddenly changed as she remembered something.
The imperial war goddess turned back.
She immediately held her breath and saw that the terrifying fifteen huge heads of the Saint Hydra were already surrounding their heads. At this moment, Brando was knocked away and half-kneeling in the grass. She was surrounded by Brando because he was going back and forth.
After plowing the ground with two sword rock thorns, it looked like a clearing.
She was standing in the middle of the clearing.
It is self-evident which of the two is more conspicuous.
Damn it, this guy was plotting against her! Veronica realized this in her heart.
