Scene 156 Hostages?
Brando's mind changed quickly. In fact, he had many things on hand that could prove his identity, but the only ones that were truly convincing were the White Crow Swordsmanship and the brooch given to him by the princess. ()
The White Crow Swordsmanship is the secret swordsmanship of Eruin's court. Anyone who knows it will suspect that he is related to the Eruin royal family. The White Crow Swordsmanship is derived from the Temple Swordsmanship of the Wind Queen Temple, and is also related to Cruz. It doesn't matter.
And that brooch is the symbol of the Royal Knights of Eruin. Even if the Cruz people have a way to get it, they will never use it to disguise it. Even Eruin, who is as weak as he is today, will never bear this kind of shame and humiliation. As the saying goes, rabbits will bite when they are anxious. Although Cruz is not afraid of Eruin's strength, he will never want to get involved in something for no reason. In a war.
It can be said that the high-ranking nobles of the Cruz people disdain to pretend to be an Eruin, and if other Cruz people choose to do so, they may have to consider the consequences of doing so.
Although the Cruz people guard their shortcomings, they will not get involved in a war casually because of an unknown person.
Therefore, whether it is the White Crow Swordsmanship or the coat of arms of the Royal Knights, they are the most favorable evidence that he is an Eruin. However, it is still a matter of consideration to choose between the two. Brando hesitated for a moment and decided to use the White Crow Prove yourself with swordsmanship.
After all, the brooch is a secret agreement between Her Royal Highness the Princess Regent and him. Brando can guess from the past history and the princess's letter that the nobles who support the Corcova royal family are not all of the same mind, although some Loyal ministers like Overwell and Sir Bergning, but also wavering centrists like Benefit Woods and Macaro, not to mention the people under the Grand Duke of Lantonilan, who have their own little calculations.
It is conceivable that not everyone among these people wants the princess to have contact with him, and some may even try their best to prevent it. Although Brando didn't know that he had appraised the situation to a close, he probably had a bottom line in his mind - he could imagine that Her Royal Highness overcame a lot of pressure to privately give him this brooch. In fact, it was A sense of trust conveyed to him.
This meager support did not help in a practical sense, but it gave Brando a sense of trust, trusted by Her Royal Highness the Princess Regent in history - as a modern person, Brando could not have that kind of support. It's like a knight swearing allegiance to the king regardless of anything, a heart-wrenching feeling, but at least there is a faint sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Brando didn't know what this feeling was.
However, he understood that if he took advantage of this trust casually, he might put the princess who was thousands of miles away into an unfavorable situation.
Although it can be said that this has nothing to do with him, Brando subconsciously chose to avoid this option.
"Mr. Mephistopheles.
"Brando took a breath, put away his previous sense of shock at being inexplicably identified by the other party, and became serious: "I think you made a mistake. "
"Oh, do you know me?" Gray Sword Saint snorted softly. He looked at Brando coldly: "But it's useless to say more. Where is Veronica?"
Brando was startled, this guy actually came to trouble Veronica. He probably didn't know where he heard the news about Veronica leaving Cruz alone, so he chased her all the way.
Brando was secretly shocked. Mephistopheles didn't catch up with Veronica until here. He didn't know how much effort he had put in along the way. You must know that there are no less than ten sea and land passages from Cruz to Eruin and into the Black Forest. There is no trace of it in the end. How much does this guy have to hate the Cruz people to do this?
But what made him a little speechless was, where was he going to find that Veronica? Speaking of which, he lost the Cruz people's precious Duke's daughter and a genius alchemist, as well as an imperial viscount.
It's too late to hide, so you go looking for it. Isn't this looking for death?
Brando's surprise was not surprising in the eyes of Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles. Although he hated the Cruz people, he knew that most Cruz people, especially the nobles, were extremely proud and stubborn and would rarely be threatened. And retreat.
When he single-handedly fought against the army in Cruz, most of the cadet candidates who died in his hands were young people, but even though they knew they were outmatched, none of them fell with their backs to him.
That battle left a very deep impression on Mephistopheles.
Therefore, when he saw Brando today, he did not intend to let him take the initiative to speak. The Gray Sword Master snorted coldly: "If you don't say yes, then come with me. I believe Veroni Ka will not leave a future genius of the empire like you alone."
Although he did not see Brando's swordsmanship, the command level that this young man showed when he fought against the winter wolf at that moment was enough to be called a genius.
"Wait--!" Brando saw the gray sword master raising his giant sword without saying a word, and his gray cloak flew up. An invisible wind pressure came towards his face and he was about to attack directly. He couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling, his eyes shrank and he quickly slid back like a ghost.
Mephistopheles raised his sword with the intention of blocking Brando's retreat, and with his ability to capture Brando among these people, it was easy to capture him, but he didn't expect Brando to retreat so quickly. It's like you guessed what he was going to do.
At this time, Brando also secretly spat. When the opponent took action just now, his 'In-depth Analysis' skill had no response at all - in the game, this can only mean one thing, that is, the opponent's swordsmanship skill level is too high. , has exceeded the limit that can be predicted by the current 'In-depth Analysis' skill level.
But you must know that 'in-depth analysis' can also play a more or less role when fighting against Veronica. Although the Cruz female swordsman did not exert her full strength, the superiority of the two can be seen.
In fact, Brando himself knows very well that the Gray Sword Saint may be slightly inferior to the Green Sword Saint Veronica in terms of absolute power, but in a real fight, Veronica may not be the Gray Sword Saint's. opponent.
Veronica's swordsmanship has reached its peak, and she can be regarded as the best among the ultimate sword masters. But Gray Sword Saint Mephistopheles has long been an inhuman existence in the minds of players. If he had to be given a title, it should be Sword God.
Brando was able to dodge this sword purely because he had studied the sword master's attack habits more than once in the past in order to complete the task of the black iron body. In addition, he was sure that since the opponent wanted to capture him, he would not defend to the death. With his experience and cleverness, he was able to avoid it before the opponent made a move.
Otherwise, as long as Mephisto cuts him down with a determined sword, not to mention his sword skills, his sword energy of this level will cut Brando in two.
But even so, Brando only retreated. After this retreat, he could no longer avoid the second sword of the Gray Sword Master.
It's like he knows exactly what the other party will do next, but due to his own limited abilities, the gap between the two sides is really too big. Even if he clearly knew how the opponent would use his sword, he could only watch his defeat.
He stepped back and looked up to see that Mephisto's expression remained unchanged. He was just slightly startled and then immediately swung his sword in the direction of his right hand - with a 'crack' sound, a white moon-shaped sword energy came out of the blade, but What's strange is that after the sword energy drew a perfect arc against the ground, it swished around behind Brando as if it had eyes.
Secret sword? Dragon Strike - In past games, countless players have hated this sword, and of course Brando is no exception. This sword energy turning technique was not mastered even when he finally reached level 130 as a warrior. Not to mention mastered, he had never even heard of any other techniques other than the Twenty Secret Sword Styles created by the Gray Sword Master. Who knows this skill?
Brando was helpless when he saw the Gray Sword Master amplifying his attacks as soon as he came up. Naturally, he couldn't hit him like this - at least Brando felt that he was not tired of living yet and wanted to die heroically - he could only stop, but This stop has already determined the outcome.
Mephistopheles seemed to have anticipated Brando's choice. He retracted his giant sword, and then stabbed Brando with his sword.
This stab pushed the second word 'wait' in Brando's mouth back into his stomach. The young lord felt an unavoidable suffocation feeling in the face of this sharp blow.
This is also the case in the Gray Sword Master's plan. In his opinion, Brando can only raise his sword to meet him, and sword fighting is the most undesirable thing in a battle between weak and strong. Suppress, then the next sword blow will be the key to victory or defeat.
Brando was certainly aware of this, but he had no choice. He was just trying to find a way to resolve the worst situation.
It was at this time that a very familiar voice in his heart suddenly sighed slightly: "Huh?"
That was the voice of the female knight. The aura of the Gray Sword Saint made her feel threatened from her sleep, so she woke up early. When she woke up, she immediately discovered that Brando was in a very dangerous situation.
"I've never seen swordsmanship before, but this guy is very strong," Otales stretched lazily and watched Mephisto stab him with his sword - because the mind-to-mind interaction was as fast as With the help of light and electricity, she could calmly ask: "Little guy, how come you can get into trouble wherever you are?"
Brando was embarrassed and thought, was this the trouble he got into? This was obviously trouble that came to the door on its own initiative, and the Gray Sword Master was not only a natural idiot, but also stubborn. He even started attacking without giving him any room to speak.
Isn't there any more laws of heaven and earth?
But at this time, he was in no mood to pay attention to the teasing of the Royal Sister. The giant sword that was thrust straight at him was almost going to hit his chest. Brando had no choice but to use the Sword of the Earth in his hand. To parry. ! ~!
