Through the rainy and misty woodland, Brando, accompanied by Freya, met Wood. This was the second time he saw the Temple of Fire since he was in Ampelsel.
The chief priest saw Mephistopheles standing next to Wood. Brando quickly saluted and said: "Teacher."
Although St. Osol taught him the Wind Queen Jiu Yao, Mephistopheles also taught him many practical skills. In name, they also have the status of teacher and student, and the elf sister did not object to this.
Wood glanced at Mephistopheles in slight surprise, "I see, you have gained a good student."
"indeed."
Brando raised his head and saw several Templars in red robes behind them. He couldn't help squinting his eyes, trying to figure out Wood's intention. But Wood originally asked him to do so in the name of Tullaman.
He suffered a big loss and Brando will never forget this lesson.
Seeing Brando's expression, the chief priest of the Temple of Fire smiled awkwardly, "It seems that Mr. Brando has a deep prejudice against me." He suppressed his surprise, and Williams brought ten saints.
Even if the Conolia fleet is blocked by the Royal Fleet of Eruin, it will not be completely destroyed immediately, let alone the help of the White Wing Knights. But what he saw was Cruz who was restrained and dejected.
People, and the flag of the White Wings Knights thrown into the muddy water.
I don't know whether the temple has been too greedy for comfort for a long time, or whether its enemies are too powerful. Looking at the young man in front of him, Wood felt deeply uneasy in his heart.
"The officiant knows well that the elves have a proverb that 'everyone gets what he does'." Brando replied.
"Haha," Wood smiled bitterly. "So I came to taste the bitter fruit I sown back then. But Mr. Brando knows in his heart that this is not a prejudice. The temple always needs a stable Eruin."
"So you chose the nobles from the north?" Brando was aggressive. He even raised his eyebrows. Wood was right, from the perspective of the Cruz people, but he didn't need to put himself in the enemy's shoes. He was not that good.
In his heart, "Whether it's the Cruz people or the Eruin people, they are all descendants of the King of Fire, and they must uphold their glory. The Sifah royal family has long lost their throne. The O'Casey brothers and sisters lost their lion hearts."
After the Sword, everyone knows this. At that time, the nobles swore that Hesse I would abdicate the throne and promised that his heirs would no longer covet the throne. Therefore, Eruin has no second heir except Prince Haruze today.
."
"I admit that the temple did not consider this matter well. Meros was a little too determined and I could not stop him." Wood replied with a sigh.
This guy, Brando watched helplessly as Wood put a shit basin on the head of the dead Meros. Wood was different from Williams. He was a typical pragmatist, but when the other party said this, he was already giving in. This
It made him feel a little alarmed, because the Temple of Fire compromised almost unnecessarily.
He stared at Wood warily.
The chief priest of the Temple of Flame smiled bitterly again: "You don't have to doubt it. I am here to request peace to Her Royal Highness Princess Griffin on behalf of the Temple of Flame."
"Ah." Freya behind Brando couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
Now it's really Brando's turn to be surprised. Is it just for the Conolia fleet? But isn't the face of the empire more important than a local fleet? If the Cruz people really think so, they are a terrible opponent. But
Brando thought of another possibility. "Williams is dead."
"Is he dead in his hands?" Wood was startled.
"Exactly." Brando nodded. This was a secret that couldn't be hidden. Besides, Mephistopheles was nearby, and he wasn't worried about the Cruzes turning their backs on each other.
The chief priest of the Temple of Fire fell silent. "This is indeed a trouble," he murmured to himself, "but Williams has a bad temper and an arrogant personality. It is not unjustifiable that he insisted on going his own way and died in a foreign land."
"What?" Brando almost thought he heard wrongly.
"Brando, I'm afraid the Cruz people don't have time to bite people everywhere. Just like the dog that fell into the mud in a fight for bones, they can't protect themselves. But we also have a problem, but you can ask them now
Conditions." Mephistopheles finally spoke, and as soon as he spoke, the knight behind Wood glared at him.
"Unable to help themselves?"
"Mr. Brando, I hope the princess will give up her pursuit of the Conolia fleet." Wood said.
"This is impossible," Brando refused forcefully, but he paused and asked, "What are the conditions?"
Wood smiled. As he expected, the real mastermind behind the princess's side was this young man. But what made him uneasy was that the other person was the same type of person as him. The temple was probably going to bleed a lot this time.
."We can ask the northern nobles to give up Amperesel."
"What do you mean, we still have to coexist peacefully with these people who are trying to usurp the throne? After annihilating the Cornolian fleet, we can still take advantage of the situation and go north."
Wood is already very aware of the way people like Brando act. They must have considered the consequences before issuing such an order, so he will not use the Temple of Fire's revenge as a false threat. It is meaningless. He considered
After a moment, he said: "As you said, the Corcova royal family should continue to hold the throne, but there are still many nobles in the north, and it will take time to calm down their suspicions. Peaceful reunification by Eruin is better than confrontation."
Brando looked at the chief priest of the Temple of Fire in surprise. He heard his implication. Wood meant to recognize the orthodoxy of the Corcova royal family, so that the north would have no de facto basis.
, the civil strife in the kingdom ceased on its own.
But this is too easy. Will the temple compromise so completely? It's not that the remaining troops in the north don't have the strength to fight the princess. Even if they fail, the Cruz people can still be stubborn. Or maybe this is another case.
A trap, he couldn't help but suspect it deeply.
"Mr. Brando, you don't have to suspect another deception this time. I will tell you the reason, and you will understand after just one listen. The reason actually lies with Meros."
"Merose?"
"You should know that he killed Princess Magdalen."
"No. Wait," Brando suddenly reacted, and he thought of a very scary possibility. "Didn't Princess Magdale break your secrets and be silenced?"
Wood's face was a little ugly. "How could the Temple do such a thing? Besides, she didn't know the Temple's plan from beginning to end. She transferred Williams from the main temple and asked for reinforcements from the Empire. But I read Meros
It was a spur-of-the-moment idea after the letter, and no one except Meros himself knew about it."
"In other words, what Her Royal Highness the Princess discovered was another secret?"
"I'm afraid that's the case," Wood said with a solemn face, "Mr. Brando, Meros is probably a lurker who will unite all things."
"Ah!" Brando couldn't help shouting. "So you are saying that you opened the flame door of the Temple of Fire in Ampelssel Port?" When he saw Wood looking at him seriously, he understood what was going on.
Needless to say.
At that moment, Brando felt as if a basin of cold water was poured on him.
The situation is serious.
He finally understood why Wood came to him to sue for peace. It turned out that the whole thing was a huge conspiracy. If Meros was a spy of the Union of All Things, then he would have known early on that the Temple of Fire would take the Flame Gate
Arranged in Amperesel, he may even have guided it, because the purpose of uniting all things is those flame doors.
The Door of Flame is a huge teleportation array. The core of the teleportation array specifies the target of teleportation, but the teleportation array itself has no intelligence. As long as it is slightly modified, it can be used to connect to other places.
For example, the devil's lair, the river of sulfur.
Brando suddenly felt creepy.
Brando Roman said that she found a trap and she was going to help you. At first, this was the first thing Antitina said to him when they met. He thought she was talking about the trap in the temple and was angry with her.
He was childish, but at this moment he suddenly realized that the business lady might have known what she was going to face - she had known about the conspiracy that he didn't know about.
For the first time, Brando felt extremely uneasy. He even had the idea that he might lose forever the lovely person who was not afraid and always stood by his side.
Once this thought arose, it was uncontrollable, making him feel colder and colder as he stood in the rain. Starting from Butcher, Brando knew that there was at least one person in the world who would be with him forever, and he could do it without fear.
If he pinches her cheek and calls her a fool, she will also raise her eyebrows and raise her eyes at him, acting petty.
But he will never forget that agreement and what she said to him that night.
"Why don't you go over?" The businesswoman seemed to be still sitting on the rock, holding her bag in her hands and placing it on her knees in her leather skirt, while a pair of round-toe shoes swayed back and forth in the air.
"They don't like me."
"Why?"
"My aunt and I are both weirdos in their eyes. Besides, there are girls from ordinary families who want to be businessmen. So it's normal not to please."
"I have never met them. My aunt has been by my side since I can remember. My aunt said, little Roman, you should repay your aunt well when you grow up!"
"That's why you want to be a businessman?"
"kindness."
"What a strange idea."
"It doesn't matter--"
From that moment on, he knew that he was deeply in love with that weird girl. Because they had some similar traits, he was not a weird person in the eyes of others, but they both had the same pursuit.
.
She wants to become a big businessman, and he wants to save Eruin in his heart. These are weird goals that ordinary people can't imagine, but it doesn't matter -
As long as it's agreed upon, that's it.
"Brando, Roman..." Freya also reacted. This simple-minded girl from the countryside of Butchi even started worrying about her best partner earlier than Brando.
But Brando gave her a reassuring look, although he was also feeling cold in his heart. "Priest Priest Wood, do you think that the Oneness of All Things will be able to control those flame doors?" He asked with the last chance.
"Mr. Brando, there is no need to guess. We lost them just before we came here. The unity of all things will connect them to the underground of Jorgendigang. You should know where that place is."
"River of Sulfur." Brando gritted his teeth and replied. "So what should I do? Order to stop pursuing the Cornolian fleet, and then turn around to fight the demons of Jorgandigang. Here, in Eruin's
On the land?" He couldn't help but yelled, "Look at the good things you have done, Cruz's bastard! What a bullshit Temple of Fire!"
This was the first time that Freya saw Brando get so angry, and her face turned pale with fright. The last time was in Lidenburg, but she was not there.
"Good scolding," Mephistopheles replied: "That's a bit manly."
Wood was speechless. The Temple of Fire - even the four major temples were infiltrated by cultists. This was an indisputable fact. But the situation had never exceeded their expectations like it was today. This time the Temple of Fire
It was a real humiliation. It was even greater than the defeat of the Cruz fleet by Brando. "We will fight side by side with you." He could only say this.
Brando snorted lightly. He didn't trust these Cruz people at all. If he knew early on that Meros was a lurker of the All-Union Alliance, then he might have guessed it the first moment he saw those portals.
The other party's plan. Unfortunately, historically, Meros missed this opportunity. There was no war in Ampelsel, and the Cruz people did not build the Flame Gate in Eruin until after his term of office.
Later, Meros returned to Cruz, and Brando also went north to St. Osol and Faenzan. Later, some news about the Temple of Fire gradually faded from his memory.
And he never missed the chance to identify Meros.
"Okay," Brando finally said: "I will persuade Her Royal Highness the Princess to give up the pursuit of the Cornolian fleet, but you must also persuade the Northern Alliance to join our camp. If the situation is allowed to develop, Ampelsel will
The chief priest knows better than me what kind of situation will happen nearby."
He pointed at Wood and said: "I hope the officiant will remember what he said today, otherwise you will regret your previous words and deeds."
Brando's heart is burning with anger, but now he is only worried about the safety of the merchant lady. If Roman is even slightly damaged in Amperesel, he will definitely make the Temple of Fire pay the price.
This is by no means an empty threat.
When he turned around, Wood vaguely heard Brando muttering, "I hope the number of demon armies sent by the Unity of All Things will not be too large." The chief priest of the Temple of Fire seemed to have been stunned for a moment before he reacted.
This young man seems to know too much?
