,nbsp;The Creation Epic of the Cruz People, "The Poem of Blue," mentions that the four elven kings and their subordinate elements are the guardians of this world. However, this agreement is only between them and Martha. These elements themselves are violent.
As for Fury, humans can rarely live in peace with them, just like now——
After the lightning cage failed to work, 'The Furious' Adgar jumped directly into the third stage. Brando was shocked when he saw this. (_-< >-) He suddenly lost the mood to watch the show and immediately turned around.
Shouted: "Your Royal Highness, please immediately order all troops to retreat to the southern foot of An'erke Mountain!"
Everyone didn't know what was going on, but suddenly there was a muffled sound underground, like the roar of a collapsed building. They raised their heads, and saw countless furious whirlwind elements in the crack where Adgar was, coming from under the ruins of the temple.
At the same time, purple-black thunderclouds surged in the sky, and patches of lightning storms began to rain down.
That scene was like the scene in the Black Prophecy Book describing the coming of the "Last Judgment". "There is a doomsday scene between heaven and earth. Lightning and fire fall from the clouds. The knights of dusk ride among the fire and rain, and then burn."
Do everything. Everyone's face turned pale. Count Odin's private soldiers were so frightened that their hands and feet were weak. Her Royal Highness the Princess also lost the color on her face. But she calmed down a little and immediately issued an order: "Count Odin.
, the cadets of the Wangli Knight Academy ask you to immediately retreat toward the Unker Mountain. Mr. Brando, you lead our Naga allies to retreat together."
Brando looked back at the scene that day when the ground collapsed. He was probably the only one among the people present who did not feel scared. Instead, he felt that this scene was so familiar, and the desire for exploration and adventure of the C family was burning in his blood. He turned his head again,
Added: "And remember not to leave the scope of this valley!"
Princess Griffin glanced at him and nodded seriously.
In fact, there is no need for an order. The Southern Army Dragon Cavalry above the battlefield has already begun to retreat. After everyone entered the forest, the last person to leave was Gray Fin Naga. When Bridget passed by Brando, she looked at him with her beautiful bright yellow eyes.
He glanced at him and said in a rustling voice: "You are not an excellent commander, but you are an excellent prophet."
Brando felt a slight suddenness in his heart and looked at her in confusion.
"Don't be surprised, the water tells me everything." Bridget bowed to him, then took her ritual sacrifice and slid into the forest with a long blade. The long tail was like a snake.
"What did she say to you?" Sanir also followed up and asked curiously; Bridget had a very high status in the Gray Fin Naga, and it had never seen her do anything to the male creature.
Color - whether the other party is a Naga or a human.
"She said I was a magic stick, do you think I look like it?" Brando turned around and smiled slightly.
Sanir thought about it and replied seriously: "I think it's a bit similar."
It was so similar that Princess Griffin waited until everyone went up the mountain, then stayed one step behind until Brando finally came up. She looked at the man carefully with her silver eyes, and then asked: "Mr. Brando, what are you doing?"
Do you already know that this monster is sealed in the ruins of the temple underground in the Marl Highlands?"
What she asked was exactly the question in everyone's mind. Otherwise, it would not be possible to explain why he defied all opinions and decided to fight the Northern Alliance here. What's more, he was the one who ordered the making of the disintegrating crystal. He ordered a group of lizardmen to bring a large number of
The matter of transporting crystals underground cannot be hidden from others.
By the way, Brando also discovered the tunnel leading underground.
Too many coincidences are no longer coincidences.
Brando knew he couldn't hide it, so he nodded, "Yes," a black wolf the size of a colt passed by him and rubbed his shoulder affectionately with his head. Brando touched its furry forehead.
The wolves were passing by the two of them. Her Royal Highness had only heard of such a strange sight in legends and stories. When she experienced it in person, she couldn't help but hold her breath.
"The Anlek Plateau used to be the holy land of the Silver Elves. Many secrets are buried here. The temple is one of them, and the other one is near Faao. That ruin is much larger than this one. Ancient wars have made many historical changes
Buried underground. But these histories are still recorded in the ancient documents of wizards≥*books*()" Brando replied.
Her Royal Highness the Princess was silent for a while. She already knew that Brando knew many secrets that ordinary people did not know. But no one knew how he mastered this knowledge. It was as if he was born with knowledge, omniscience and omnipotence.
She thought for a moment and asked: "Mr. Brando... no, a descendant of Mr. Jian. You said you knew nothing about your grandfather's deeds, and your experience seemed to us like a legend; you overcome
You have gone through hardships and difficulties that ordinary people can't imagine to get where you are today. We all know that your future is limitless. If you want it, status, power, and even... women are within your reach, but why should you choose
help me?"
There was a subtext she didn't ask. Looking back today, it is not difficult to find that Brando's every move since leaving Lidenburg was in preparation for today. He unabashedly expressed his feelings for her, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Eruin.
He was favored by everyone and helped the Corcova royal family unconditionally during their most difficult time.
If Brando came here following the legacy of Zandarus, she might not be surprised. But no, Brando's legend is his own epic. He doesn't even know that his grandfather is Eruin.
The famous person in history.
Princess Griffin never believed that there would be love without reason in this world, just like there would be no hatred without reason.
I still asked this question. Brando scratched his head. It’s not that he hasn’t thought about this question. This question is indeed difficult for him to answer. It cannot be said that the love and hatred of the previous life continue to this soul.
, is it unforgettable?
"Well... maybe it's because some people are born worthy of being helped. Besides, Her Royal Highness is so beautiful, isn't she worthy of being helped?"
"Mr. Brando intends to use this answer to perfunctory everyone. I think even your subordinates need a reason, right?" Griffin asked calmly.
This really hit Brando's Achilles' heel. He turned around and realized that Caglis and Antitina were quietly paying attention to what was going on here. Indeed, what he did in the past could make the people gathered around him
People around him don't ask why. Because they believe he can lead them to create miracles.
But it will take more than a miracle to save an aging kingdom. One day, they will need a common goal.
"...Actually, I don't understand either, Your Highness Princess. But I think the kingdom has also experienced a revival, but it was fleeting. One or two strong men cannot change history in the end. Perhaps what the country needs is not just strong power, but this
What purpose does the power serve?"
"Are you determined to eradicate everything wrong with this kingdom, or just maintain its decadent rule? Don't you already have the answer in your heart, Princess? And your answer is exactly my answer." Brando replied slowly.
He closed his eyes, and others thought he was talking about the second revival of the kingdom. But Brando was actually talking about Eruin's final revival. It was the last act of the kingdom, but it came to a regrettable end.
.
Princess Griffin looked at Brando blankly and clenched her fists. She had already thought of this answer in her mind. But she closed her eyes and tried not to shed tears because of her excitement.
She wants to maintain the rule of this kingdom.
It's not that the Corcovado royal family has to last for generations.
But to inherit the ideals of the late king and himself, and to recreate the most glorious era in Eruin's history. But her glory does not belong to the nobility, but to the entire kingdom, everyone, even if the Corcova royal family no longer
To maintain her rule, she also wants the glory of the Holy White to not fade away.
From then on, Eruin will shine in the history of Warnd as a country. Instead of being a vassal and stage of the nobles. Just like the oath promised by the late King Ek on this land - the Lion Heart Sword.
It is not that the rule of this land will last forever, but that the glory belongs to the Eruin people.
Until that moment, this ancient country will become stronger from the inside out, radiating new life and vitality.
Brando silently looked at this weak girl - she had never had a companion in history - even except for a few players, no one knew the true ideals of this princess. Even the nobles who supported her did not understand her.
What is the persistence of.
In order to gain the support of the royal party and Duke Anlek, she had to compromise again and again - some players even slandered her as a political prostitute - but she had to retain the rule of the aristocracy to maintain her ultimate goal.
Basic requirements.
It's just that the development of history often does not always go as people expect, which is exactly the tragedy of this princess.
She had to go against her ideals time and time again. Although she tried her best to make up for it, it was ultimately irreversible. When she finally decided to let go of the past and move forward, the emerging nobles who had been promoted by her supported her royal party.
Ignore her immediately.
But maybe she should have jumped out of this outdated thinking from the beginning and won the help of the people who should really support her. But after all, she was a princess who grew up in a royal family, and she was deeply afraid of the deep-rooted power of the nobility.
But finally someone stood behind her.
Brando thought silently, maybe this is a change. Let her understand that she can rely on more than just the nobles of the kingdom. This ancient kingdom has more people who have changed, like Freya, like An
Titina, and even the descendants of nobles like Caglis, it's just that they can't explain it and can't see through the fog of history.
But he can see everything in the future at a glance, without even guessing, history and the future are within reach of him. Brando understands what is right and what is wrong.
The nobles in the north were addicted to the power of the past, and all their efforts were just to continue the current situation. But eventually someone was determined to get rid of the evils of the past, understanding that this ancient kingdom must be reborn on its ruins.
He turned around and saw Caglis lying on a simple stretcher, winking at him not far away. And Antitina smiled and nodded to him, as if she was relieved.
Princess Griffin also took a deep breath.
She couldn't help but look over Brando's shoulder, her silver eyes reflected the scene of Adgar plundering among the Northern Alliance forces in the river valley, and sighed softly.
"Thank you, Mr. Brando."
"Although the Eruin people still inevitably kill each other, after losing half of the Black Blade Legion, the nobles in the north will reconsider their position. If the temple does not prevent Eruin from falling into a long civil war, he said
They may turn to compromise with us."
"The kingdom must go through the pain of rebirth, but it is better than slowly bleeding. Ampelsel has done his best in one battle. Mr. Brando alone changed the future of Eruin and saved more Eruin people from the war.
, I would like to thank you on behalf of this ancient kingdom."
Her words really came from her thoughts. The crisis in Ampelsel seemed dangerous. But it also contained opportunities. The northern nobles, including herself, were looking for the key to breaking the situation. However, the northern nobles took the lead and attacked Yanzhi.
The addition of the Holy Temple was unexpected to her and the royal party. It seems that the situation is irreversible.
But at this moment, Brando single-handedly changed the entire situation.
She had met many people, but the young man in front of her seemed like an alien. He had power and strength. But he could not see the usual sophistication and cunning of the kingdom's nobles. Even she could not avoid it.
She has such a brand - so she can regard herself or others as a political bargaining chip without any hesitation.
But Brando didn't have it. She could understand this after just getting along for a short time. She couldn't understand that kind of freedom, unrestrained but firm temperament. Such temperament seemed ridiculous and childish to the nobles, but maybe it was just like that.
Only people can change history.
Her Royal Highness looks much more relaxed.
But Brando shook his head, and had to deal with her better mood: "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not that simple. You think of the Temple of Fire too simply."
He is not lying and listening, but has witnessed the greed and arrogance of those guys with his own eyes. The Eruin people have lost their honor, so why not the descendants of the Lord of Fire? It’s just that the Cruz Empire has a rich family, while the Eruin is in turmoil.
That’s all.
Princess Griffin frowned slightly: "Mr. Brando, are you saying that the Temple of Flame will tear up the sacred covenant and intervene in the civil war in Eruin? This is...impossible, right?"
Indeed, this is something that has never happened in thousands of years.
But today is different from the past.
Brando knew that the coming of the Great Demonic Tide was just around the corner. Many prophecies contained only a few words mentioning this huge change. The Temple has a long history and it is impossible to be unprepared for the coming Holy War.
It is just one link in a series of chain reactions brought about by this change.
The reason why the Temple attaches so much importance to this holy war is precisely because of this. They will never compromise with the vassal country at this time, not to mention that the fragments of the Flame Blade are still on him.
Although the Flame Blade is not something that is absolutely necessary, it is certainly exciting to be able to obtain the artifact, but there is more than just one artifact in the world, and it is not worth losing one's life for.
But now he has no choice.
Because Otales has told him that the thing has been bound to him. Simply put, unless he is killed, the Flame Blade belongs to him.
It sounds wonderful, but in fact it is full of dangers.
Brando glanced at the princess and nodded. Her Royal Highness the Princess did not know that history was at the most critical moment of change, and her misjudgment was understandable, not to mention that the Eruin countries had been under the rule of the temple for centuries.
, no one would dare to underestimate the majesty of the temple.
Princess Grifiine was silent for a moment, and she didn't know how she should resist if the temple intervened. Although there is still the Wind Queen Temple - the wind elves of St. Osol, as long as the Cruz people do not try to annex Eruin,
He will definitely not take action.
She couldn't help but bite her lip tightly, and before she knew it, her lower lip was bleeding.
But Brando raised his head.
The sky was covered with clouds, and Adega was fighting fiercely with the Northern Allied Forces in the valley below. But at this time, Brando felt an unusual breath coming from the sky.
It was as if a stone had been dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples to ripple across the entire battlefield.
"Brando, that's a portal reaction." Ortales's voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
"I know." Brando nodded.
He is too familiar with it. On the battlefield of Warnd in the future, cluster teleportation is almost one of the most effective tactics. When a large-scale teleportation gate is opened, it is often the most shocking scene on the battlefield.
But this time the teleportation from the sky made Brando feel palpitated.
That is...the Door of Flame.
…
Above the outer sea of Ampelser, there is now a world of water between heaven and earth.
A quiet fleet docked quietly in the sky outside the Holy White Bay. The Royal Navy petty officers on the first-class battleship flagship 'Victory' of the Royal Fleet of Eruin lined up with their heads held high in the heavy rain, as if waiting for a review.
A clear cry came from the distant sky and penetrated the rain curtain. An Eruin dragon vibrated its wings and emerged from the rain. It approached the fleet in an instant and then landed on the deck of the "Victory".
The flying dragon flapped its wings twice, and a man jumped out from its back.
"Captain!" the petty officers immediately shouted in unison.
"Very good," Count Yanilasu, commander of the Eruin Royal First Fleet, glanced at his men and replied seriously: "Bring me my coat."
"captain?"
"Ambesel has entered a state of war. Her Royal Highness the Princess has ordered that the first fleet is ready to set off."
Immediately there was a burst of excited cheers on the deck.
Count Yanilasu raised his head. There was already a busy scene on the ship. The magic power core began to charge and rotate, and several wizards in silver robes also came to the magic helm at the highest point of the Victory.
"Location, Lord Earl." The first helmsman of the 'Victory', the silver-robed mage Master 'Silver Flame' David, raised his head and asked calmly after confirming that all the procedures for his apprentices were in place.
Count Yanilasu turned his head and looked into the vast rain curtain.
"Anchor point coordinates: 128, 22, the entire fleet is in position, the situation is level one. Activate the secret anchor point in Shengbai Bay, plan codename - Shengbai's battle, follow my orders, prepare to jump."

In addition, I drew an image of Roman when I had nothing to do. I will see how to transfer it to the starting point later. You can refer to it...) (To be continued...
