The Amber Sword - 1076. Chapter 1076

The wind blows across the four borders. It is the sea breeze Kai’Sa from Silver Bay, or the white mountain summer breeze with the breath of mountains and wilds. Air currents flowed across the sky, pushing and rolling clouds like cotton wool slowly toward the north. At the place closest to the skyline, the clouds looked like a goddess, reaching out from the clouds to caress the undulating hills in the distance.

When the wind blows over the hills, the meadows undulate successively, forming stripes of different shades. The forest is located in the south of the Yundun area, like a dark green shadow, mixed with many tree species such as thick leaf maple and Elson black pine, and the gray and white trunks are hidden under the shadow like toothpicks.

The forest and the alfalfa tributaries under the shallow river cliffs form a clear boundary. To the east is the kingdom of the elves, facing the coalition forces of the Temple of Flame across the river.

“Mr. Darus, have you seen such a magnificent scenery in your hometown?”

“The Wilderness of the Four Realms is the only place in Woende. In terms of magnificence, even the Saint White Plain can’t compare to it, Your Royal Highness.” A general in uniform looked at the horizon and tried to find the elves who acted. Traces, but nothing was found-the Alkhash Mountains fell from the sky like a shadow, the clouds on the Howling Peak remained year-round, and several eagles soared in the sky.

He turned his head to look at the princess of the empire, her face was like a sword, full of fortitude, vaguely similar to Brando, but with thinner lips and deeper brow bones, full of the characteristics of a highlander.

A pair of brown eyes are piercing, as if it can’t support the powerful will of its owner otherwise.

“But Eluin has its beauty, just like the Empire, the mountains of Charlotte, the pine needles of Elson, and the remains of tall towers on the high ground.”

“I understand that Elu is the only place of civilization and order opened up by the sages since the year of glorious return. There is no more glorious land than it. The people on it are hardworking and brave, leading these people. The aristocracy is excellent and glorious.”

The princess looked at the knight beside her intently.

“You are absurdly praised.”

The princess smiled slightly before turning her gaze to the distance. She looked in the direction of the horizon, her eyes were gentle as water, “There is the kingdom of the elves.”

“The wind elves turned their gazes to the north after the whole summer. They don’t seem to plan to fight us to the death in the Wild of Four Realms. Maybe they will enter the mountains.”

“Before the war of the saints and for a long time after the war, my ancestors Gilt, Saint Ossor, Faenza, and Erlanta in the kingdom established by the four saints lived in close relationship with each other. , But now we treat each other like enemies.”

“So your Royal Highness will run for peace in the empire?”

“Yes, but this holy war is too tragic, and the blood shed does not know how long it takes to wash away. But in my heart I actually understand that fighting each other in order to fight for living space is understandable. From my standpoint, I can’t blame my country and allies. The elves are the same. The sages used to expand their territory, but since the end of the chaos years, the pioneering knights have almost disappeared, not because people are standing still, but because the power of order is declining. The number of fires produced every year is getting less and less, and it is not enough to replace the fires that are about to age and die. The House of Nobles even legislated to limit the number of new territories opened each year in order to prevent those mature and orderly places from being supplemented because they are not supplemented. Decline.”

The princess whispered: “But we just can’t tell the people this for fear of panic. What should we say? Tell them that Master Martha is abandoning us? But I firmly believe in the power of mother, but the current situation is still disturbing, and the interior of the temple is also disturbing. People are in a panic. Last month, my teacher Vala and the Great Holy See discovered that someone from the top of the temple had joined the Unity of All Things. Although only an archbishop, the meaning behind it is disturbing. It shows that our faith is declining. People are becoming more and more confused. If this momentum cannot be contained, the consequences will be disastrous.”

The general listened quietly.

“I have a plan. I hope to go to Saint Osor and Faenzan after this holy war. On the one hand, it is to dispel hatred. On the other hand, I believe that it is not only the Temple of Flame that is confused. All civilizations should All encountered the same trouble. A thousand years ago, we could conclude a sacred covenant and fight for a goal together, and we will be able to do the same after a thousand years.”

“If I can’t convince the temples of Saint Osor and Faenza, then I will go to the Ring of the World and find a way to seek the approval of Lord Sage. Lord Ellanta will stay and guard the world. She will definitely not sit back and watch. Regardless of.”

“As an imperial princess?”

The princess nodded: “Does Mr. Darus want to be my accompanying knight?”

“my pleasure.”

The princess smiled knowingly: “This is my dream, Mr. Darus, I have never told anyone. I hope that the four temples can return to the era of glory. In the more distant future, we will open up Out of a wider territory, civil wars between civilizations will be eliminated as a result. I want to prove that what the four sages did at the beginning is correct. Once we succeed, people will no longer fall into confusion.”

The general thoughtfully nodded slightly: “If there is such a day, I will be honored to be your knight, Your Royal Highness.”

“But it’s difficult, maybe we won’t be able to see it for the rest of our lives.”

“It’s difficult, but there will always be successors, and any lofty ideal will never lack people who will succeed.”

The princess nodded.

Constance looked at the face that seemed to be in a mirror. She stood face to face with her. The soft face was full of kindness and persistence. The light silver eyes gleamed with longing and hope for the future, but there was absolutely nothing inside. Not only innocent, but also a strong and indomitable will.

That face made her feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

Her face was pale, and the muscles on her face were tight and stiff like a rock, “Enough.” She roared low, her hands gripping her hair tightly, joints protruding, like ghost claws.

The picture became fragmented and merged into the darkness of the study. The thick curtain edges reflected the lights of the distant urban area. The tall bookcases stood quietly in the shadows. The desks were scattered with documents stacked with parchment. The signature seems to be written in blood, and it is very eye-catching in the glimmer.

Outside the study door, Dragon Queen Gwendolyn silently retracted his gaze and shook his head.

“This is destiny, ridiculous and real, but it is not worthy of pity, because everyone has to face it, and no one is more noble than anyone. On the day when the Tower of Babel was destroyed, they felt this biting pain deeply. .”

She turned her head and walked out of the promenade.

In the meeting room, a knight had been waiting for a long time, and he seemed a little restless.

Gwendolyn looked at the performance of the other party and replied: “Your Majesty does not want to meet guests for the time being, and appoint me to deal with emergencies on her behalf. Let’s talk, what’s the matter.”

“My lord, please, we cannot contact the Marquis of Baroque. Before he left at noon yesterday, his Majesty ordered the city guards of Ginkgo Fort to leave the garrison. But before the evening, there was news from an informant saying that cultists were instigating riots in the city. Thousands of people have gathered in the Zhanhua Commercial District and Yinma Square. If they cannot be stopped in time, the consequences will be disastrous.”

“Is this the news before you left the station or the latest news?”

“Before leaving the station, my lord.”

“How long has it been now?”

“Half an hour.”

“Where are the patrol cavalry?”

“I don’t know, my lord, I didn’t see them on the way here.”

“That’s good.”

The knight was taken aback for a moment, raised his head, and saw the countess in front of him-Gwendolyn’s identity-with a weird smile on her face.

Before he could react, his consciousness was shrouded in endless darkness.

Gwendolyn looked at the corpse lying on the ground coldly. The young man fell on the carpet with his head and headless body on one side. The blood showed a deep color in the dark, and the shadow of the corpse seemed to be alive. When I came over, I wriggled, turning it into nothingness in a moment.

With a pity, she glanced at a large hole in the carpet, and replied softly as if talking to herself: “The Marquis of Baroque will not come to give you orders, but you can’t hear it anyway.”

Her figure melted into the darkness little by little.

…

The scenery in front of Brando changed rapidly, and the forest was pulled behind him at a speed faster than the light. The oak trees, the tulip tree and the heather hidden under the rock, because of the speed, the trunks and branches were almost covered. Connected in a straight line until they can’t distinguish each other, as if they were mixed with paint flowing into the color disc.

Then a light spot appeared in front of him, and the light spot came to him in an instant. The scenery inside stretched and expanded and turned into a quiet night scene on the east bank of the Marigold River, the river glowing with sparkling waves under the moonlight, an ancient bridge Across the waterway between the cold dew forest and the business district, row upon row of roofs in the urban area exude a faint silver light in the distance.

Brando was stunned for a moment before realizing that he had reached the foot of the mountain of Hanlu Manor.

“Lord Lord!”

Brando turned his head and saw Metissa and Hippamilla who were with her. He did not speak, but immediately beckoned and opened several light doors in midair. Charles and Modefice went from inside in turn. It fell out, and in the end it was Andriguez, who fell heavily on the vampire pseudo-mother.

“Woo-”

Andrieg supported with his hand, and while standing up from his younger brother, he also pressed the latter’s head into the soil.

She didn’t even look at the latter, patted the dust on her skirt, and then silently walked away from the river for a few steps. Although the blood was not as afraid of water as in the legend, she didn’t like it much.

Brando looked at Modefice who got up from the ground and wiped the mud on his face with a grievance. He couldn’t help but shook his head helplessly. Turned into twins, but the latter doesn’t seem to always accept the account.

Hippamilla also glared at Andriguez, and walked over to help Mordefense wipe his face clean. The kindness and kindness of the priest lady is well-known in the fir collar-although she always likes to raise some weird animals , Makes people feel inaccessible.

“My lord,” Medissa breathed a sigh of relief, and she asked with some concern: “The previous battle…?”

“There was a little accident, what about Sidney?” Brando asked while looking at the surrounding environment. The riverbank and forest quickly formed an impression in his mind. This should be the edge of the marigold business district. Nearby is the Twelve Fingers Alley, where the headquarters of the patrol cavalry is located at the border with the Queen’s Quarter.

“Ms. Sidney and Your Excellency the Legion Commander leave us one step ahead. Haven’t they arrived?”

“It seems that they were intercepted. Except for the existence of Cairoyeer and Saipan in the extreme realms, the Cruz people do have extra energy to do this,” Brando thought: “The Silver Queen is not defenseless. .”

He replied: “Don’t wait for them. Sidney and Ms. Veronica have their own ways to get out. I don’t know when the Silver Queen will catch up. Although the ability of the travel wizard should confuse them for a while, Royer As Cruz and Saipan are the top wizards in Cruz, they must have their own means to detect the direction of my escape.”

He looked towards the west bank of the Marigold River.

“We proceeded along the canal waterway between the Marigold Business District and the Queen’s District, and went directly to the west of Rusita after arriving at King Street. Although it is the headquarters of the patrol cavalry, the cultists are inciting riots in the city, no surprises. The attention of the city guards and patrol cavalry should have been attracted by them. At this time, it is safer to choose this route.”

“Lord Lord.”

Brando turned his head: “What’s wrong, Medissa, do you have anything to add?”

The little silver elf princess frowned, hesitated for a moment, and seemed a little hesitant to speak.

But in the end she made up her mind and said: “We met Andesa earlier.”

“Who?” Brando was taken aback: “Andesa, she?”

“She shot at you?”

Medissa shook her head: “No, but she looks a little weird. Have you ever heard of the second defilement, Lord Lord?”

“Secondary defilement, do you mean she looks like she has been injected with the blood of the gods for the second time?” Brando immediately reacted: “This is impossible, unless she doesn’t want to live anymore.”

Medissa couldn’t help but glanced at her lord in amazement. Although in the eyes of ordinary people, the tree shepherd is no different from the members of the Return of All Things and the Sheep Head Cultists. They are all cultists, but few people know that they call themselves The former druids of the withered ones have been secretly studying the power of the blood of the gods for more than ten centuries.

Even many people don’t understand what the blood of God is, and confuse it with the demon sacrifice of the Goathead Cultists, but the facts are clear to Metisa that although the tree shepherds are extremely crazy, the blood in their hands is the real God. Blood is definitely not rumored demon blood or power from hell.

But her lord not only had a clear understanding of the blood of the gods, but also spoke out the nature of the secondary pollution in one mouthful. She couldn’t help being very curious about the other side’s young age, where did she learn about these uncommon knowledge.

Brando didn’t even know what he thought of the little princess. He just frowned deeply. It’s not surprising that Andesa appeared here. She was in the imperial capital. Maybe the mob attacked the imperial prison, but The secondary pollution is a bit unusual.

“I hope there will be no connection between the two.” For some reason, he always felt a deep anxiety in his heart.
