The probability of space collapse caused by the disintegration of the magic power of the dimensional hole is quite small, not much higher than a person being struck by lightning under a cloudless sky. What's more, the Earth Sword, as a true artifact, can never be destroyed because of this.
At most, it is just lost in some unknown space, perhaps in an unknown corner of the Warnd continent, or in an elemental plane. Even worse, there are countless people outside the boundaries of the Tiamat Law.
One of the fragmented demiplanes or space fragments - if the Earth Sword is lost in these places, it may not be possible for mortals to find it back in their lifetime, but for dragons, they may be able to find it again one day.
.
After all, time is not a threshold for dragons, they have eternal life.
Do Modesty and Gwendoline dare to bet? Brando stared closely at the two giant dragons and saw clues from their expressions - they didn't dare to bet. Even if it was only one hundred thousandth, one millionth
There is a chance of 1 in 1, but who can be sure that Lord Martha will not make fun of you? Brando keenly noticed this from their hesitation, although he had already concluded from the other party's tough tone before that
They came to almost the same conclusion, but now this conclusion has been confirmed - what Gwendolyn and Modesty want to do with the Sword of the Earth also only has one chance, and they cannot afford to lose.
Brando secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this did not mean that he was out of danger, it at least meant that he could buy some more time.
Now the two sides are almost back on the same starting line.
Although Modesty and Gwendolyn still have the initiative.
"Mortal, your idea is very dangerous," the Dragon Queen replied coldly. The chill in her voice seemed to make the whole valley howl with a cold wind and a layer of frost fall: "You mean you want to use this method?"
Come to blackmail us?"
"Ms. Dragon, I have no choice." Brando replied calmly. He spread his hands and looked helpless. It was the first time that Chiara saw the arrogant side of the Earl, but
The fearless calmness of the former made her eyes sparkle slightly, thinking that this bad guy was not really as useless as the rumors said. In the past period, Brando was always in a superior position and gave orders confidently.
Now they are at a complete disadvantage. It can even be said that life and death are in the hands of others, but the other party also behaves neither humble nor arrogant, which makes people look at them with admiration.
The character of a gambler who doesn't care about life or death and who is all-or-nothing also surprised Chiara, who was used to seeing the cautiousness of the kingdom's nobles. She had never seen such a noble before.
But Chiara is more secretly angry. This guy is going to contradict the two giant dragons, and he will probably make things more tense. In fact, there is no other way to solve it at the moment - I really don't know why he is so angry for no reason.
Can't you satisfy the dragon clan's vanity? What a fool. What she doesn't understand the most is why this guy can't forget his subordinate. Isn't he just a chess piece? He is already in this position, so he should learn to give up.
Soldier Baoshuai's consciousness, kindness and innocence are destined to have no relationship with the nobility. You don't have only one subordinate, at least there are all of us in this mission. She couldn't help but clenched her pointed little canine teeth,
Full of resentment, I don’t know how this damn guy’s head grew.
She quietly tugged at Brando's clothes several times, but the latter seemed to have known what she was going to say and turned a deaf ear. Miss Chiara was frightened and secretly angry for a moment, if it weren't for her being too small and unattractive.
Watching and jumping up several times, the two giant dragon ladies didn't notice her. I'm afraid that she would have to take the initiative to interrupt the two dragons at this moment so that she could make her conditions.
Roman is very well-behaved. She always trusts Brando unconditionally when she is around him. However, this does not mean that the business lady is well-behaved and sensible. It is probably simply because the sky is falling and there are tall people who have such a mentality.
That’s all.
Among the four, only the elf was too frightened to move. Xianni was also hiding in her hood, mumbling something.
After hearing Brando's answer, the expressions of the two giant dragons became very unkind, but they did not answer for a long time.
Brando also waited quietly.
In fact, he was very strange. Is this really so difficult for these two dragons? Their enemies are the Cruz people, and it is almost the same for him. He doesn't even ask for them.
Asking for help in recapturing Akane, he just wanted a promise to ensure that he could leave Andzlova safely, arrive at the capital of the empire, and cause trouble for the Cruz people - both parties clearly have the same interests and demands, but the other party is unwilling to die or die. Could it be that
Is the dragon's face so valuable?
The giant dragons he had encountered in "The Amber Sword" were not like this at all. They were more like Aloz and Star, who were very pragmatic in spending every penny they spent.
Brando instinctively felt weird. He thought about his request repeatedly, trying to find out where the conflict with the other party's interests occurred, but he thought hard and couldn't find any clues - these two dragons are really crazy.
——This was the only conclusion he came to.
Brando waited, he had already given his last trump card, and all he had to do now was wait for the other party's reply.
But to his disappointment, Gwendolyn finally shook her head.
"Mortal, your request will not change?" the Dragon Queen asked indifferently.
Brando nodded.
"Perhaps you are still lucky," Gwendolyn seemed extremely unwilling to say such soft words of advice, but she frowned and continued: "But I want you to understand one thing.
The Sword of the Earth is in your dimensional cave. This is indeed a very troublesome thing. However, for the Dragon Clan, it is not unsolvable. It’s just that we don’t want to waste time in vain. If you think that a dimensional cave alone can stop it.
It would be a big mistake to scare us."
The voice of the Dragon Queen rumbled and echoed in the valley. Brando frowned slightly after hearing this. Of course he knew that what the other party said was true. His trump card was indeed not unsolvable for the other party - first of all, like
It was what he had expected before. Even if the Earth Sword was lost, it would not be impossible for them to find it, but it would just cost a lot of time and even a lot of manpower and material resources.
In addition, there is a second possibility, which is to find a way to subdue him before killing him. If he loses consciousness, it will not be that difficult to open the dimensional hole using dragon methods.
It is very easy for two adult dragons to restrain him.
The premise is that he does not have a timer in his hand.
But now, if the other party is not careful, it will be self-defeating.
Brando's heart was clear, and he naturally understood the real reason for Modesty and Gwendoline's concerns.
After Gwendolyn finished her advice, she paused for a moment and then continued: "I don't understand why you are so stubborn. She is just a human woman. She has no origin and no background. The only person she can rely on is Azure.
Gun, but since you don't care about the Azure Spear, why are you having trouble with yourself on this matter? Don't you understand yet? She is now in the center of the whirlpool and is a potential threat to you.
What you need to do now is to try to distance yourself from her, instead of rushing in like a moth to a flame."
The Dragon Queen's words became heart-warming at the end: "Don't be stupid, you are a smart person and you will not fail to see the pros and cons of this. Little guy, I am warning you like this for the sake of your grandfather."
From a certain perspective, Gwendolyn's words make sense——
There are bound to be many things in this world that are impossible to do as you wish.
Wanting to do it and finally doing it are two completely different things.
Having ideals but ultimately stalling is the norm in most situations. Human beings are a group that seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages. This is due to animal instinct of self-protection.
In front of Brando are two giant dragons and a huge and powerful empire. Behind him, the Eruin people are not even united themselves - the kingdom wants to protect every one of its people - but even he
I know that if this sentence is placed within the kingdom - any noble will praise this as a resounding line, but in fact, everyone thinks that this is a subconscious slogan. It sounds beautiful, but it may not be true.
It can be done.
That's Cruz after all.
Not to mention that there are Gwendolyn and Modesty standing in front of him. In the eyes of anyone, Brando will not have any moral problems if he chooses to retreat at this time. In fact, he has already done so.
Good enough, how many lords dare to blatantly cause trouble in the empire for a subordinate? Based on this alone, no one in the entire Eruin dares to say that he is greedy for vanity and is a sinister and despicable person in the name of righteousness.
only.
The reason is very simple. If you are not convinced, you can also try to challenge the empire?
But manpower is sometimes scarce after all.
Gwendolyn said this, she had already retreated as much as possible, and Chiara couldn't help but become anxious. Even the dragon had been given a step, and if she continued to carry it to death, she would really be asking for death. Abandon your soldiers to protect your commander.
Isn't this a very simple truth? She really doesn't understand why this guy with a wooden fish head is silent.
Brando did not answer directly.
Although he didn't understand why Gwendolyn and Modesty insisted on causing trouble for him, the fact was already before him. If he wanted to go to Rushta, he must first overcome the difficulty in front of him.
Regarding what choice he should make in his mind——
Brando didn't think much about it because he already had the answer.
At this moment, he felt like a patient suffering from late-stage hallucination symptoms. Reason and logic seemed to have nothing to do with him. He told himself in his heart - if I gave up Qian, what would I have left? He himself
Looking at a series of experiences since coming to this world, he said that everything he did, although it may not be clear, always followed the same belief. He did not seek to be logical, but sought peace of mind. If he gave up this
Faith, then why did he return to this world?
Brando thought it was impossible to convince himself.
That being the case.
Then just go ahead and do it.
People can stop, but they can't leave regrets.
"So," Brando replied, "the negotiations broke down."
He said: "Actually, I'm very sorry too."
"But I still don't understand," Brando shook his head and asked in confusion: "How is my request offensive to these two respected ladies?"
Chiara almost jumped.
She was simply stunned. She once thought that Brando would definitely step down from power. Only a real lunatic would let herself be buried for such a thing. Although after getting along with each other during these days, she had known this guy for a long time.
He is a relatively decent person at heart, but there are so many decent people in Eruin, and there is no way they would break with the two-headed dragon over such a thing.
Even if some people don't care about their own lives, the problem is that Brando is a lord. What about the other people under him? Doesn't he just care about it? Those people also let the lord do such nonsense?
This is simply a joke.
She subconsciously looked at Roman, but the business lady raised her little eyebrows as if it was natural for Brando to choose this way. It would be strange if he didn't choose this way, but Chiara couldn't help it.
I became a little annoyed. Haven't these people noticed one thing? That is, they are about to become a delicious barbecue. Who are the business lady and the wooden-headed lord over there?
At this time Brando took a step back.
Chiara was startled when she saw this action. With her intelligence, she could certainly see that the earl was going to fight for his life - at this time, she had no time to think about what was available and what was not.
She is a well-known genius within the Sifah family, but she has a more outstanding brother, who has always hidden her so that her reputation is not visible outside. Chiara has always been confident in her own mind.
, even in this most dangerous moment, nature is no exception.
She was still annoyed that Brando was holding her back, but as soon as Brando moved, she immediately clearly judged the current situation and what she should do.
"That guy over there, since you chose to do this - damn it, you are such a big brainless idiot - forget it, it won't help to say this now, I have something to tell you," she originally expected Bu
Lando could give in, but at this time he shouted decisively: "They can't help you. You must not hope that these two dragons will change their minds, because they are on the side of the Silver Queen, and there is only one betrayer in the empire."
, that is Her Majesty the Queen!”
When Brando heard this, his movements that were about to take action suddenly stopped. He couldn't help but stared at Chiara in great surprise, wondering what the little lady was crazy about again. Could it be?
You were so frightened that you started talking in your sleep?
Chiara's shouts echoed in the valley, and Gwendoline and Modesty, who were about to subdue Brando, stopped suddenly and looked at the little girl next to Brando in surprise - they
They had never cared about each other before, but as soon as Chiara said this, they were brought back to reality. The looks on their faces obviously proved that Chiara was not lying, on the contrary, she guessed
all hit.
"It's too late to explain to you," Chiara replied angrily. She grabbed Brando's arm, and then roughly recounted the information she had obtained from Poli, the Fire Anvil, and Shargos.
After saying that, he shouted loudly: "Quickly, take us out of here. Although you are a little stupid, you are not a real madman after all. I know you must have a way!"
Of course she understood that once she revealed these secrets, there would be no room for turning back between the two parties.
And this is exactly her purpose.
Now that she saw that Brando was going to fight, she must not let this wooden head continue to be half-hearted and cause everyone to lose their lives. It would be best to completely dispel the doubts between him and the two dragons. She didn't want to give him an inexplicable blow.
The idiot was killed. Of course Brando didn't know that in Chiara's heart, he was already equivalent to a fool with strong limbs and a simple mind, but the little guy's sudden change of attitude still shocked him, and he pulled Chiara away
Pulling him down to his side, he grabbed the elf again and let Roman hold his arm.
Chiara at least got one thing right.
He is indeed not helpless.
Brando turned on the elapsed pointer at the first time, but this time, he didn't just turn it on for a moment and then turn it off immediately like before. He turned on this sub-artifact continuously for the first time, and the time passed ten times.
In an instant, the entire scenery in the surrounding mountains and forests slowed down. The falling leaves, the slowly dancing flames, and the flying dust formed an extremely strange landscape painting.
At this moment, this is a world that has slowed down ten times for Brando and others - or for Dragon Queen Gwendolyn and Modesty - a world that has sped up ten times for Brando.
Brando estimated the time he needed, and then realized with some bitterness that he needed to keep turning on the elapsed hand for at least ten minutes in order to have a chance of safely escaping into the underground passage without being pursued by the two dragons.
ten minutes.
This is a return to the rhythm before liberation.
At the same time, there is another problem. That is that Gwendolyn and Modesty have no way to crack his time pointer.
Gwendolyn and Modesty watched Brando's figure fleeting at the same time, witnessing this scene from a high position, but they didn't seem too surprised. After all, they had known that the other party had a timer on their hand.
.The Dragon Queen glanced at Modesty, who nodded slightly to her.
The two dragons spread their wings at the same time and flew up from the valley.
