The Amber Sword - 622

“I know, Your Royal Highness, listen to me, and I won’t make fun of my life. But I have a plan, and I might try it.” Brando is eager to try anything unique to players. The tone said. Princess Griffin frowned and looked at him, “Really?”

The half-elf princess looked suspicious in Brando’s eyes was really cute, there was a girlish posture that she had rarely seen before. He nodded, “Of course, if we can sneak past Qiao Gendigang’s eyelids, why don’t we have a way to remove the flame?”

“Let’s not say whether we can destroy the flames, you just believe that they can really take us away from the army of Qiaogenjigan? Mr. Brando, they are witches, they are the best at using words to deceive people.” Her Royal Highness. She didn’t conceal her wariness, but this time she was on Brando’s side, and there was an obvious expectation in her bright silver eyes-she didn’t want Brando to take risks.

“His Royal Highness, Princess of Corcovado, I was already a witch when your grandfather Old Obergou was still on the throne. Witches knew that their words would be overheard by the raven, so they were cautious in their words and deeds. The nobles have a sweet belly, but you still trust them.” Barbasa grinned, like an old crow, she replied in a hoarse, low voice.

“Bold people of darkness, who allows you to call the king’s name directly!” Her Royal Highness scolded coldly, with a soft sound, and the narrow and bright blade trembling slightly in the darkness.

Brando hurriedly held her hand, “Barbasa.”

“It’s me who made a mistake, Lord Lord.” The old witch glanced at Princess Griffin with her cold, dull eyes like wooden beads.

“Barbasha, the princess is not wrong. You are the best at manipulating people’s hearts. Although witches never lie, they leave behind the back door. I want you to swear to the goddess of the pillar of hell and swear not to betray me. You can do it. Brando pressed Griffin’s hand with one hand and asked coldly when he turned his head.

Barbasa crouched down deeply, and said in awe, “My lord really knows everything. We are willing to swear to the goddess of the purgatory pillar that we will not betray the lord of Tonigel, our lord Brando, if any Violating, the blind and lame Dias drags us into the abyss—”

Princess Griffin saw Barbasha put her hand to her heart. She had vaguely heard of the witch’s oath of “pointing to the heart”. But she realized that this oath seemed extremely terrifying to the other party, and at the last sentence, the old witch even shivered slightly. She knew very little about witches, and it was hard to believe that these cunning women would take a vow so much, and for this she looked at Brando in confusion.

The silver eyes seemed to seek an answer.

“Don’t worry, Your Royal Highness, they won’t deceive us now.” Brando took the advantage of her carelessness to take off the sword in her hand, gently put it back in the opponent’s scabbard, and replied, “Zhuzhi The goddess Modesty is their belief. It is said that Modesty was the first witch to steal black magic from the sea of magic. She passed this spell to the first prophet of the twelve witches, but she was later killed by the demon. We grabbed them, pierced naked in the iron thorn hell with a pillar, and were tortured forever. Dias, who was blind and lame, was her first student. She was addicted to the darkness and fell into a monster, who violated the oath of Modesti. The witch will be dragged into the eternal darkness by Dias who crawled out of the abyss. This is not a legend, but a real thing. Falling into the complete darkness and losing the five senses is the most terrible punishment for a witch. Since Barbasa has made such an oath, she will never deceive.”

Seeing the princess’s still incomprehensible look, Brando added: “These are the secret knowledge of the witches, which are rarely known to outsiders.”

“Then how do you know?”

Good question, Brando didn’t expect that the princess would still be sober at this time, so he hurriedly found a reason: “Because your princess, you also know that I have read the knowledge of wizards. They are as old as witches. Although they are not enemies, they are at least competitors. They know each other’s secrets more or less.”

Princess Griffin will be suspicious. She turned her head, “Then how sure is she to keep us from being discovered? If only relying on the spells of witches, I don’t think the commanders of Qiao Gendigang will be unprepared. I have heard of Qiao Gendigang’s There are more witches underground. So whether they are enemies or allies, they don’t know what the witches are doing, right?”

Brando once again felt the calmness of the half-elf princess. In fact, he also thought of this question. On the one hand, the princess did not even understand the common sense that there is only a “lord” and no “commander” in the underground. He has a deep understanding of Qiao Genjigang. Make judgments based on only a small amount of knowledge, and stand on top of each other.

He also looked back at Barbasha, hoping to get an answer. About his plan is just an idea, but whether it can be implemented in detail requires more details. No victory in a war can be won by slapping the head, and he knows this well.

“Compared to your faint grandfather, the princess is obviously much smarter. The facts are about the same as you guessed.” Barbasa mentioned Obergus VI again, and the half-elf girl pursed her lips and suppressed her anger. The witches are so dismissive of the power of the world. In fact, this is one of the reasons why they are rejected by the world. What made her puzzled was that the old witch was very respectful to Brando, and she didn’t know how much Brando helped them. She listened to Barbasa’s continued words: “But in addition to spells, we also There are some secret knowledge passed down by witches from generation to generation. One of these secrets mentions that there is a hall that has been abandoned since ancient times in Ampersel. This hall is hidden between the cracks of the fjord and can lead to the port. Among the hills to the north.”

“It’s impossible,” she finally couldn’t help but said: “The first king Eck built the Port of Ampereur here for nearly seven centuries. For the past seven centuries, in order to re-determine the port of Andefol. Whether the foundation of the Leda Temple is loose or not, the Ampersel people have explored the terrain around the port and underground more than once, but there has never been a rumor about ancient ruins.”

“But Her Royal Highness also has to admit that long before the Eruin people built the port, this place was no longer a land without a master. Except for the silver elves, other civilizations have prospered here. The reason why secrets are secrets, Just because it is not known.” Barbasha smiled.

“I remember, are you talking about the ancient passage that seeps water.” Brando remembers that there is such an ancient ruin near Ampersel, but it has been weathered for too long, leaving a trail that traverses the underground cliff. It’s just a passage between. Inside there was a spider mother who didn’t know how many years he had lived, she was a 57-level BOSS.

To be honest, he didn’t want to mess with that thing at all if he could. In the narrow terrain, a giant spider mother with strength on the side of truth, coupled with her countless children and grandchildren, and the ubiquitous spider webs, Brando is terrified to think about it.

The point is that he had never heard of the ancient passage leading to the hills north of Ampersel, only knowing that one side of the ancient passage went deep into the mountains of Anlek.

“My lord, in fact, we don’t know what’s going on under that hall.” Hearing Brando’s words, Barbasha confirmed his identity even more. Everything is as the prophecy said, the witch’s secret is like an open book in his eyes, which can be read at will. “But since Lord Lord also knows this passage, it means that it must exist.”

Princess Griffin believed it this time, because Brando would definitely not lie to her. She turned her head: “Brando, is she true?”

“I’ve heard of such an ancient passage,” Brando was sweaty on his forehead, and almost accidentally exposed it again. He couldn’t help but secretly scold Barbasha, these old witches, for taking a so-called’witch’s secret’ to attack him. “But this passage can really lead to the hills north of Ampersel?… Well, there is no mention of this in the wizard’s literature.” Brando felt that if this continues, the information on the previous forum is really going to be a wizard. Literature library.

“This is a secret we have passed on from generation to generation, so naturally you can’t go wrong. This corridor connects the mountains while leading to the hills to the north.”

“That should be correct, it can basically be printed against what I know.” Brando confirmed it at a glance. There may be a secret passage under the ancient passage. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but become very curious. In the past, because of being close to Amperisel, there were not many players exploring this ancient passage at all, and no one had discovered this other secret passage for decades.

You must know that it is impossible to inexplicably set up a secret channel in the game, there must be corresponding benefits in it. Thinking of this, Brando’s heart burned with a raging fire of expectation. There are too few secrets that have not been discovered in the land of order in “Amber Sword”.

I didn’t expect to meet him today.

He raised his head, “Barbasa, if I remember correctly. The entrance of the underground passage should be some distance from here, right?”

“Yes, Lord Lord.” Barbasa replied respectfully, “The entrance should be east of Jean Ding’s foothill manor.”

“Who has a map?”

“I have.” Earl Odin immediately removed a wooden tube from his waist, opened the stopper, and took out a roll of waterproof parchment map. The accompanying knight spread it out, and the parchment map was spread on the ground almost half the size of a person. It was the entire map of the area near Ampersel.

This kind of high-precision map is not common in this era, even in the military, it is the most important and highly secret, and it is worth less than ten thousand dollars to get it on the black market. Players didn’t have such a dazzling stuff back then. Brando didn’t expect Oting to carry such a thing with him. He couldn’t help but complimented: “I didn’t expect Earl Oting to carry such a good thing with him. Be prepared.”

Count Oeting looked at Princess Griffiin with a little embarrassment: “His Royal Highness asked the old minister to bring it.”

Brando suddenly glanced at the half-elf girl on the side, but it was a pity that the princess didn’t have much expression on her face, even frowned slightly. He couldn’t help sighing and looked at the map. On the map, there is a place called Silver Peak Hill to the east of Jean Ding’s Foothill Manor. If he remembers correctly, the secret entrance of the ancient passage should be nearby. ”

But before that, there is a problem.

“If I remember correctly, the secret entrance of the ancient passage should be closed by ancient magic. Can you think of a way to open that seal?” Brando looked up at Barbasha.

“Naturally, it was actually the witch who closed the ancient passage, Lord Lord.” Barbasa replied somewhat proudly. She does have the resources to be proud of. The witches have a long heritage in Warnd. They used to follow the Dark Dragon and hold a large number of unknown dark secrets and history. “It takes a ritual to open that secret gate. Only twenty people can pass through at a time. But once the passage is passed, whether it is going north to the hills north of Amperisel or going south into the mountains of Anlek, it is up to the lord. The adults decide for themselves.”

“In other words, we must enter that ancient passage no matter what?” Princess Griffin asked.

“Almost, unless we are willing to blaze a trail, but I’m afraid there is little hope,” Brando said. But Princess Griffin frowned. “But they don’t know what the specific situation is under the ancient corridor. Whether there is any danger below it is also an uncertain thing.”

“Anyway, it’s better than just sitting and waiting,” Brando bit the bullet and added: “Besides, I know what’s down there, and I’m at least 80% sure. Please trust me, Your Royal Highness.”

The princess glanced at him, and finally nodded: “Well, I believe you.”

“There is one more thing.” Count Oeting on the side suddenly said. Under the gaze of everyone, he walked up and pointed to a point on the parchment map-after a short while, the map was full of water-and said, “We still have some way to go to that place. We were on the top of the mountain just now. I saw at least one of Qiao Gendigang’s army entering the forest. If we go from this direction, will we run into them head-on.”

Brando looked at the map and frowned deeply. He knew that what Earl Ouding said was true. He had seen a spark of fire outside the port of Ampersel on the top of the mountain before with his own eyes. It was probably the light of lava and torches. They continued to move north so that they would have a great chance of hitting them, not to mention that there were countless harpies above their heads.

He tightened his lips, frowned and exchanged glances with His Royal Highness. Both saw the same meaning in each other’s eyes:

“We need to request support—”
