Scene 56 Witness
Brando watched coldly as the nobles gathered to argue with each other, and the private soldiers of the nobles were clamoring and panicking all day long. The nobles were going east out of the city, and as for their subjects at Riedenburg, what were subjects? No one mentioned it.
At the moment, no one cares about political struggles anymore. The focus of their dispute is what to do with their respective property. Some argue that life-saving is the most important thing, while others advocate as much as they can bring—even they would rather die than give up their property, just like Mada La would look at him as a nobleman and give him a way out. These people made a lot of noise and accused each other, which made Brando couldn't help being bored. He lowered his head and wiped his sword - the sword just now brought him 220 experience points, and it was him who killed the golden tree boss. The most lucrative income.
It seemed that it was a middle-level Lich, and it was his luck. The Lich probably never thought that he would choose it. However, the power of the Lich is relatively low among similar creatures. The mid-level Lich with more than 30 levels was caught by the gargoyle and could not move, which gave Brando a chance to pick up the leak.
The intermediate Lich has more advantages than that.
Brando split the Lich's forehead with a sword in full view, and took out a bone from it. Then cut off the four fingers of the opponent's right hand with a sword, then opened the opponent's jaw, and carefully pried off the opponent's teeth one by one and put them in the pocket. His shocking behavior made the field quiet, and those people looked at Brando as if they were looking at a demon—even though it was a Lich, it still had a human figure, but Brando's movements were as proficient as the most A skilled hunter handles his prey as well.
But Brando himself didn't think there was anything wrong with this, because he was dealing with prey. The middle-level corpse wizard is different from those low-level cannon fodder. Its soul fire nodules have a chance to be tempered into gemstones for inlaying. The four knuckles of the right hand holding the staff are the wizard's spell-casting materials, and the teeth can be used to make paralyzing poison.
In this way, saying that the whole body is a treasure is also a big deal.
Charles knew some allusions, so he ran out of the private soldiers and stood respectfully on Brando's side. The private soldiers of the nobles worked their lives for money, and the morale of the army had already been slackened by now, so naturally no one cared about him. It's just that when the young wizard servant thought about everything that happened before, he couldn't help but think of the scene where Brando tried the sword next to the body of Earl Doon, and then he realized that every move of the lord has a deep meaning, and he couldn't help but burst into tears. plus admiration.
He looked at Brando and felt that Karasu's wise highland wizard mentors were nothing but calm.
On the other side, Luc Besson also calmed down after a brief absence. He grabbed the reins and rode on the horseback. Instead of running away like the others, he looked at the young man with interest. In his opinion, Brando is calm, flexible and not lacking in determination. At this age, he is even more powerful. If he was born ten years earlier, he would definitely achieve greatness.
But today's Eruin, even if he is a royalist, can't help but shake his head. He looked up at the dark night, and couldn't help but wonder what would happen to this country.
For a while, there was some silence between the few people——
But only a genius knows that Brando is calculating which way to escape at the moment. He looked at Charles standing aside, couldn't help but turn around and asked, "Pale rider and black warrior, which one do you think is easier to deal with?" Charles was stunned by this endless question, and for a moment I don't know where to start the answer.
Brando shook his head. He watched as the noisy nobles finally retreated eastward with their private soldiers. The corpses of their comrades were left in such a mess on the river beach, and no one cared about them.
"Goppel compared the nobles of Karasu to robbers in his poem, and I think Golan-Elson's is not far behind." Charles scoffed.
"This country is almost over." Brando sneered, regardless of whether Luc Besson was on the side or not. But he would not care about a group of dying people. These guys went out from the east and bumped into the most powerful general under Targus - the famous "Dragon Calamity" Lord Tamara,
Brando originally said how these people would die in history, and now looking at their stupid decision, it is not so incomprehensible——
"Aren't you running?" Luc Besson asked on horseback, as if he didn't hear his words.
Before Brando could answer, there was a whistling wind in the sky, and everyone raised their heads subconsciously, just in time to see two huge skeleton dragons growing from small to large in the distance. There was a whizzing overhead.
At that moment, everyone present froze with fright—the feeling was really indescribable—the terrifying and elegant undead leaped across the sky, and the burning purple flames rushed from between the gray-black bones, burning out from between the ribs. , every time the huge wings flapped, there was a heavy wind sound. They flew over the heads of everyone, and the purple flames dragged a long trail. scream.
The scream itself was like a long nightmare, with a corrupt and hopeless atmosphere growing from the human heart, as if bones grew out of the black earth, and rotten tendons were covered with white maggots. The withered land stretches as far as the eye can see, the sky is overcast, and you are standing alone in the middle of this gray plain.
It was almost a shock for Brando to recover from this state of mind. He couldn't help screaming loudly. This is the aura of fear of the bone dragon. Just flying over has such a big impact on the people present. He couldn't help looking around, and saw the war horses on the river beach running away in fright, or kneeling on the ground with weak limbs.
Then he saw Luc Besson, who couldn't help being stunned when he realized that he was also awake: "Come with us, young man. You have also seen that personal power is very small at this level of power."
Brando looked at him and shook his head. He can't trust this guy now, and Luc Besson is dead in history, he doesn't want to touch that bad head. It's not easy to get to this point after a lot of hard work, as long as he escapes from this dead city, half of his plan will be realized.
Next, he can fight monsters and upgrade with peace of mind, and then wait for Aruin to come to an end.
Brando saw that his good life had just started, how could he pit himself again. He thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth so that the other party would retreat: "I want to break out from the north, because my friend is waiting for me there. If General Luc Besson doesn't mind, he can go with me."
Luc Besson stared at him, hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head. The blue flames were burning in the north, northwest, and west, indicating that the undead army was invading from that direction. Although he admired this young man, he still didn't want to lose himself.
But Brando didn't tell him that at this time, except for the east, the other directions are actually similar. However, the distance to the north is closer. At this time, time is the advantage, and time is life.
He patted one side of Charles on the shoulder, and replied: "In that case, let's take our leave first. If there is a destiny, I hope we can meet again."
Although Luc Besson in history is not much different from ordinary nobles, he is at least a capable person. And he was one of the few people in that era who could think of the concept of the country. Subconsciously speaking, Brando didn't mind him surviving.
It's just that he looked at each other, but didn't say a word of unnecessary words. He was afraid that a slip of the tongue would remind the other party half a sentence, maybe it would not be a problem for a while, but Luc Besson the 'Tiger' is not a girl who has never seen the world like Freya and Roman, as long as he finds doubts, he may not know what will happen.
These days, astrologers are respected, but the magic stick is tied to the stake. Brando can't take this unnecessary risk with his life and future.
***********
Year of flowers and summer leaves, June 2nd—
The peace of the past was reduced to ashes in the raging fire that night, and the place where the army of undead passed was scorched. Countless people lost their lives, countless wives were separated, and their families were destroyed.
When the people found that prayers could not save them, and the only nobles they could rely on abandoned them, long-lasting scars were created, and this distrust gradually began to spread from the war zone to the rear.
But Brando knew that this was just the first step towards the end of Aruin's path.
The news of Riedenburg's fall did not reach Vanmeer Fortress until six days later. At this moment, Tagus's flanking army had already threatened Ankeze. The next fortress alone struggled to hold on.
On the 11th, the news of Vieiro's discovery of the army of undead reached Corcova. On the second day, Obergo VII secretly met with Madara's emissary.
On the thirteenth, Amperesel's Free Traders Alliance announced its participation in the war.
On the 14th, Special Envoy Madara officially met with him.
On the 20th, the fighting on the front line stopped for a while, and then the two sides formed a mission, and the war began to enter a long negotiation period.
But the war continued to advance at a slow pace while negotiating. In the first month, the frontline fighting seemed to be struggling in a quagmire. Madara's army fanned the flames everywhere, and Eruin's slow response often caused them to suffer huge losses.
However, the royal family is happy to see such a loss.
As a result, the negotiation process was further delayed. On July 5th, Madara's army entered Jean de Nere, and met Ampersel's mercenaries for the first time. The historical "Battle of Frankenburg" kicked off. Instaron was in this battle Famous in the first battle, the black knights under his command tore open the flanks of Anlek's mercenaries again and again under the cover of artillery, and finally established the battle situation.
Since then, Madara's army has advanced all the way, and even reached the capital of Jean Denel at the farthest point. In a series of battles, the young names of Instaron, Tagus, Wieland, August, and Greta will shine brightly, and only Brando knows that these names will be revealed in the future history. mean something.
But history is still moving forward. On July 16, Pope Obergo VII met with Madara's emissary again. Three days later, the negotiations came to an end, and the first Black Rose War came to an end.
However, this war started like lightning, and ended like lightning, as if nothing happened, and everything seemed to have happened. The only result of the war seemed to be nothing worth mentioning except that Aruin was defeated again and again as expected.
Only after that, for ten years, Butch no longer belonged to those who once loved that land.
