The Amber Sword - 880. Chapter 880 Act 38, Two Letters III
Brando quietly listened to Tester’s account, and then replied: “This is also your own choice.”
But he was actually very surprised in his heart, only to know that the Lionheart Sword had such an experience before it was in Freya’s hands. When he first met Master Bru in the underground of Fir Castle, the sage stone slab suddenly resonated. Thinking about it now, it should be that the unity of all things has activated the Lionheart Sacred Sword. But they took it too much for granted. The knight of the lake who guards the lion heart sword is the knight commander Krentell next to Eck. Before he became a hero, he had the strength not inferior to Mephistopheles today, not to mention. After taking the guardian oath, under the entanglement of obsession, the will to fight will only become stronger. A Golden Tier in Teste district dares to challenge such a monster, and it can only be said that it is self-defeating.
Otherwise, he had understood that the Lionheart Sword should be buried near the Lake of Fog, why not go directly but have to go to great lengths to get the sage slab?
But when it comes to the legendary knight next to Eke, he suddenly remembered that the ghost-like guy next to Freya has appeared less and less recently. This seems to mean that Lionheart Sword has fully recognized Freya’s role. Its owner can only occasionally catch a glimpse of the knight in the courtyard of the fir castle. The servants in the castle even regard this stunning knight as a haunted story in the castle.
Tester listened to Brando’s evaluation, but did not refute it. He replied with vicissitudes of life: “You are right, Lord Earl, it is indeed my own responsibility; now I have forgotten even the original purpose of looking for the sword. I just feel like a clown through and through. Ever since I left the Lake of Mist, I have been following that person. The whole person is muddled. There seems to be a voice in my heart that urges me to do this. I can’t think, can’t rest, and walk day and night. I can feel time leaving me quickly, but I cannot resist. I feel as if I am in an endless nightmare, wandering in the nightmare every moment, like a lonely wild ghost, in pain.”
“But now it looks like you are still sober, don’t you.” Brando looked at him and said.
Test did not deny and nodded: “When I suddenly woke up today, I felt that I was still near the Lionheart Sword.”
“Can you feel the Lionheart Sword?” Bran was slightly surprised.
“I have no idea.”
“you do not know?”
“When I see you, Lord Earl, of course, I know that the Lionheart Sword is still nearby. Before that, I can only feel a strong appeal, as if before me is a gray world that is constantly declining, above the wilderness. There is only one pale road, I can only walk along that road, and then I came here.”
“But it sounds like you are no stranger to what is happening outside.”
He was made an earl only after the battle of Ampersel, but from Tester’s tone, he should have no chance to contact the outside world during this time.
“I don’t know, but everything surrounding the sword seems to come into my mind naturally.” Teste replied hoarsely.
Brando raised his eyebrows. This sounded like a connection with Lionheart Sword, but this connection didn’t sound like approval, but rather a curse. He suddenly remembered a legend. Anyone who is not recognized by this sword will suffer bad luck if they try to indulge in this sacred sword. The last victim was His Majesty the last generation of the Sifah family. After that, Lionheart Sword didn’t know it. The trace has appeared again today.
However, the status of the opponent is very similar to the unnamed person. The unnamed person is those who have lost their faith and lost themselves. He did not expect that the curse of the lion heart sword would have this effect. Although the members of the All Things One Association are a group of lunatics, their beliefs are still very firm.
He looked at the other person again, and asked puzzledly: “I think you’re not just looking for me to say this?”
“Naturally, Lord Earl. I think there must be some reason for the voice that brought me here today. Now I only seek a relief, and I don’t want to live a life like a walking dead.” Teste replied very tiredly. .
“You don’t seem to need to beg me for this kind of thing.”
“Death does not solve the problem,” Viscount Tester sighed in pain. He was a man of greatness, but now he looks like a half-dead old man: “I have died many times, but it’s like a dream. After the dream disappeared, he woke up and appeared in another place.”
“It sounds like death is indeed better than life.” Brando nodded. He has no affection for these members of the All-In-One Society. Although he is not gloating, he does not need to sympathize with such people. He looked at each other and continued to ask: “You said you wanted to tell me some secrets about the year. It seems that you want to use this to make a deal with me.”
Teste nodded.
Brando pondered for a moment. To be honest, he was very concerned about the other party’s secrets, but the problem now is that he is not good at curses, especially this kind of curse related to the nameless, which in itself is a very dangerous one. matter. When he was in the Dead Frost Forest, he dared to enter the dream of the unnamed. It was because he had some understanding of the characteristics of that dungeon, but now to solve this Viscount Lord’s troubles, I am afraid that he has to enter the dream of the opponent, as long as the opponent has a little Malice, this trip is a life of nine deaths.
If the Viscount-sama is someone else, I still say that, but he is a believer in the unity of all things. Brando is not great enough to take risks for an enemy. He thought for a while and refused: “To be honest, I don’t want to deal with people like you, I can even reach out to the nobles I despise. The hands of friendship can also tolerate the arrogance of the Cruz people, but they don’t want to get involved with everything together.”
“Yes, we are notorious.” Teste replied weakly. He frowned, and his tone became a little anxious: “I understand this too. It may be a bit unacceptable for you, my lord, but— —”
“No,” Brando shook his head and interrupted him: “Not for this reason, but because you are too crazy.”
“Crazy? No, sir, some of us pursue the truth, and some of us pursue power, but we may not necessarily be more despicable than those who deal with you.” Although Tester’s tone was weak, he still said this. There was a trace of contempt.
“It’s the despicableness who seeks benefits for himself. This despicableness is disgusting, but at least it doesn’t make people feel uncomfortable.” Brando replied: “No one wants to deal with lunatics.”
“Don’t be dumb with me, Lord Earl, I know you are interested in the secrets in my mouth…” Tester seemed to hear Brando just playing him, and couldn’t help interrupting the latter anxiously. Say loudly: “Why don’t you give me a chance, give us a chance, my secret will satisfy you! Lord Earl, it is related to one of your subordinates, a lady close to you safety!”
Brando looked at the half-dead fellow, and his heart jumped suddenly. The first thing he remembered was Akane. The mountain girl had been missing for quite some time. Fir and Lantonilan sent almost all the scouts and eyeliners. No trace of the other party was found, he even asked the Buga to help, because it was related to the Azure Gun, the latter also readily agreed, but so far there is no news.
He looked at each other and asked coldly: “What did you say?”
Viscount Teste grabbed the rusty iron gate fence and glared at Brando, his face pale, like a ghost. He stood there for a while, as if he was hesitating whether to directly tell everything he knew. He didn’t know if Brando would lie to him, but an obvious anxiety was already permeating his expressions. “I don’t have much time, Lord Earl, you and I have no complaints in the past. Maybe there were some small misunderstandings at that time, but you and I don’t have to take such small things to heart. I believe you are a human being, as long as you give me A promise, I will tell you the secret.”
“Do you still have room for bargaining like this, Viscount Tester?” Brando looked at Tester’s expression, although there was some curiosity in his heart that could torture this arrogant Viscount Lord into this. Looks like, but at this time all his thoughts fell on the mountain girl with the red ponytail, and there was no time to care why the other party suddenly became anxious.
“Master Earl, you are really hard-hearted, do you even care about the safety of your subordinates!” Tester suddenly twisted his face, clutching the iron fence, and wailing: “I only want you to make a promise!”
“Well,” Brando finally let go: “As long as your secret really makes me feel valuable.”
Tester seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and he replied with a twisted face: “…Earl, the lady of the staff next to you…Ah!” He suddenly widened his eyes and screamed: “No, no! Wait! Wait, wait… Listen to me, Lord Earl… Ah… It’s time to find the daughter of Borg Nesson, who is under Magske… As long as you care about this, let me Get out…No, don’t take me away! Please! Ah…”
With a stern wailing, Tester’s voice suddenly turned into a series of horrified roars. At that moment, Brando seemed to feel something walking through the night, and there seemed to be a phantom glowing with fluorescence passing over the surface of the river. There seemed to be thousands of horses in the phantom, dragging Teste directly into it, and waiting for him. With a blink of an eye, the Viscount-sama who still existed in front of him had long since disappeared without a trace. Brando then reacted and rushed to the river to take a look, only to see that the surface of the water was as calm as before, without even a trace of extra ripples.
But he lowered his head and saw a crack in the rusty iron fence door, which seemed to prove that the previous scene was not an illusion.
Brando stood by the river, bathed in the cool night breeze, and stood there dazedly, feeling a bit creepy for a while. Tester’s last wailing seemed to reverberate in his mind—Borg Nesson’s daughter—isn’t that Anttina? What does that guy know? He said McGothek was looking for Ann. Ttina? He also knew Magske, the former head of the White Winged Cavalry Regiment, a senior member of the All-For-One Association, and was later picked out during the Great Purge after the First World War in Amperexel. It’s on the torture frame.
But how can these messy things have anything to do with Antitina?
He originally came to Braggs for housework, but he didn’t expect to encounter this kind of thing now, and he almost didn’t react for a while. But why would you find Antitina when everything is back together? He couldn’t help but look back at the dilapidated building. In the night, the building looked like a slanted, fangs and claws, reflecting the dim light in the distance, and it was a little weird and terrifying. He sucked slightly. With a sigh of relief, I felt a little uneasy in my heart.
After a while, the boy who had left before ran back out of breath. He saw Brando’s sullen face and was a little weird. He couldn’t help but ask: “Am I coming back too late, sir?”
Brando did not answer, but just asked: “Did you hear anything before?”
“Voice?” The boy showed a puzzled look and shook his head.
Brando took one last look at the iron fence before taking the package from the young man. He opened it and took a look. It was hot bread and bacon, and a few roasted potatoes. It didn’t look like it was sold in a hotel. The food, it looks like this guy brought it out of his own home. But although it was not rich, it was better than the cold bread that he ate when he was sleeping in the wild. He put away the parcel and threw a silver coin to the other party as a reward.
The latter looked flattered, although he was a little scared at first, but in the face of Qian, Brando was finally a little amiable in his eyes. Brando took a fancy to the nature of the other side’s snake, and asked him to leave a way to contact him. It was regarded as hiring a temporary follower. Of course, the young man was willing to 11 million people. I wish Brando would hire him for a while, one on the market Thor is almost a week’s pay for a skilled craftsman. Brando’s reward is enough to keep him busy for a while. Such generous employers are not always met.
Besides, there is extra money.
After Brando ordered the young man to report to him the next day, he took one last look at the faint surface of the Butcher River that traverses the city, and then went back upstairs. When he returned to the room, he found the two girls sitting next to the desk. Freya was reading a thin book by candlelight. Brando caught a glimpse of the book’s name-“Suriman’s Cavalry Notes” “This book is very famous in Eruin. It is one of the standard cavalry tactics textbooks of the Wangli Sergeant Academy. Although it is a bit old, this young girl from the countryside of Buche has to review it whenever she has free time.
He turned his gaze to Antitina again. The lady of the staff was no better than him and Freya. Her physique was only about the same as ordinary people. After riding on the road for several days, she was already tired, lying on the desk. Fell asleep. However, this lady of the staff was so stubborn, so trapped, she still didn’t want to go to bed alone. Brando couldn’t help but shook his head with a wry smile when he saw this scene. He closed the door and walked over and put the food he found next to Freya. It seemed that Freya had only noticed Brando’s existence. She ate it. After a shock, he recovered from the world of scrolls.
Brando hurriedly made a silent gesture to her and pointed to Antitina. The latter realized that the lady of the staff who had been sitting next to him was asleep, with an apologetic expression, “I’m sorry, Bran Many, I’m too engrossed in reading, Miss Antitina, she…” She replied quickly, but Brando waved her hand and gently lifted the lady of the staff, he supported the latter with one hand. Back, one hand passed through Antitina’s knees, and directly hugged her up. The lady of the staff slept very deeply, her long eyelashes fluttered under the candlelight, as if she was having a dream. Lando only felt the scent of a girl lingering at the end of his nose, and couldn’t help being startled. Freya saw this scene on the side, somehow she was slightly jealous, and asked in a low voice: “Brando, want me Can you help?”
Brando hesitated, only to remember that it was indeed more appropriate for Freya to come, but when he saw Antitina lying on the desk so softly and falling asleep earlier, his heart was full of pity. Wanting to protect his unique assistant lady, I forgot this moment for a while. He paused for a moment, and finally shook his head slightly, doing everything he did. At this time, he stopped his hands and seemed to be twisted. He walked to the bed, gently put Antitina on top, and then put the quilt on her, he raised his head and looked at Freya again, and saw the latter turned his head slightly.
“You go to sleep together, I’ll watch the night for you.”
“No, Brando, I’m not sleepy.” Freya rebuffed.
She picked up the booklet again and turned a few pages, only to find that she was upset and couldn’t enter a word anymore. After a pause, she raised her head and saw Brando was already sitting where Antitina was sitting before, and when she saw her looking over, she asked, “Have you heard anything before.”
“Voice?” Freya just wanted to ask about the matter between him and Miss Antitina, but she was taken aback by Brando’s sudden question. She thought that this guy must have changed the subject. What’s the sound. She shook her head: “No.”
Brando frowned slightly, Tester’s last scream was not too small, at least it spread along the river for hundreds of meters, but he also asked the boy before, and his answer was the same. Like Freya. This is surprising, he knows that there is only one situation that will happen like this, that is, he has an illusion, but the gap on the iron fence door clearly reminds him of everything that happened before.
He thought of Tester’s words, and suddenly remembered the patrolling cavalry he and the cripple met when they first met Antitina.
At first I thought that those guys were just blackmailing, but now I think about it again, it is full of doubts. Although Eruin is rotten up and down, there is a set of rules among the nobles. After Antitina is also noble, those The patrol cavalry will not know this. They want to make some extra money, and some are better targets. There is really no need to come here to ask for trouble. But combining Testa’s words today, it makes more sense. Brando knew that Bragg’s patrol cavalry also came from the White Wing Cavalry.
In other words, the people I met that day were probably Mageske’s men, but if Test did not lie, what would I want to get from Antitina?
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but look at the noble daughter who was sleeping on the bed like a sleeping princess in a fairy tale, and his heart was full of confusion.
“never mind.”
Brando shook his head at last, don’t think about the things that don’t make sense. Anyway, Antitina is by his side, and everything will come back to find her in trouble. You have to ask him whether he agrees or not.
