The Amber Sword - 985. Chapter 985

The battle to ambush Rodney’s ship ended sooner than expected.

In the case of mental arithmetic and unintentional, even the rear players arranged by Brando and his team were of no use at all. When the Valhalla fleet disguised as an imperial patrol ship fired, Rodney thought there was something. Misunderstanding, hurriedly ordered the ship to stop and wait for Brando’s subordinates to come up to explain. As a result, when the three warships from Valhalla got close enough, he finally discovered the anomaly. Unfortunately, it was too late at this time. The commander on the Brando warship directly ordered the warship to move up and start the battle, and the sailors rushed forward. Although the knights from the White Legion around Rodney are still preparing to fight back, the battlefield they are good at is not above the sea and the sky, not to mention that there are Valkyrie and Gray Sword Saints on Brando’s side. In less than a quarter of an hour, the sailors rushed into the bottom deck, allowing Rodney and the rest of his followers to surrender.

随后三艘战舰连同这艘座舰一起在法坦港附近的军用锚地中靠港，布兰多第一时间得到通知，带着夏尔一行人上了船。上船时，甲板上战斗的痕迹早已打理干净，横七竖八的尸体被搬走，污血被清洗一空，一排排身穿瓦尔哈拉海军军服的水手立于船舷两侧，从他们身上明显可以看出之前经历过战斗的痕迹，不过这些年轻人眼中闪烁的却大多是兴奋的光彩，在他们身后，几个俘虏被捆得跟粽子似的丢在一旁，倒是罗德尼本人没有受到任何伤害，好整以暇地站在舱门旁边，女武神之首的布伦希尔德亲自在一旁负责监视他。布伦希尔德今天一如既往地一身戎装，面上清冷之色依旧，在外人面前一副言笑不苟的模样，只是她那浅蓝色如同大海一般的眸子里燃烧着一团明亮的火焰，直到看到布兰多时才微微点了点头。

被神话之中传颂的女武神的首领亲自看管，单就这一点来说，罗德尼这辈子已经值了。

不过此刻他本人显然并不这么想，他并不想死，因此显得格外战战兢兢，他可是亲眼见证了整个战斗的过程，他带了三十二名大骑士长，这些骑士长都是来自于白之军团的精锐，每个至少都有黄金下游以上的实力，可就是这些精英中的精英，在那三个骑着火焰战马的女武士面前却毫无抵抗的能力，就是用最委婉的词汇来形容，之前的战局也是一面倒的，毫无半点侥幸可言。尤其是他身边这位女战神，更是一枪在这艘战舰上留下了一个巨大的窟窿，开什么玩笑，这可是二级战舰啊，他虽然没什么本事，但却很有眼光，一眼就看出来这些女武神至少也掌握了要素的力量，而且不是那种用手段强行从黄金巅峰提高到触摸要素的半吊子，而是货真价实的掌握着要素力量的强者、圣殿骑士，甚至可能还不止于此。

How could three element-level powerhouses suddenly appear in this place, especially when they are still wearing standard equipment, they seem to belong to a mysterious force, and Rodney, the flame war horse they are sitting on, doesn’t even know it, but To be able to withstand element-level battles, the extraordinary nature of this mount is obvious. When he thought that such mounts could appear in batches, he couldn’t help but sweat. Is there any force around here that has such a strong strength? In addition to the temple, he really couldn’t think of it. The biggest lord of East Metz is Duke Huaye, but it is impossible for the Grand Duke Huaye to have such strength. Is it really a temple? Rodney knew that in addition to the priests, the highest knights of the Flame Temple was the Flame Knights, but there were no women among the Flame Knights. What’s more, he saw that these people were obviously foreigners, but he hadn’t connected them to the small country to the south for a while. The one he suspected the most was actually the Buga.

Only the Buga will appear at this time and stand on the opposite side of Her Majesty the Queen.

Rodney’s wild thoughts lasted until he saw a person appear on the deck. When he saw that person, his eyes widened in disbelief, his face turned pale, and he was sweating. Zhu seeped from his forehead, and her legs trembled involuntarily, as if she would be limp on the ground at any time. If Brunhild hadn’t helped him behind his back, maybe this possibility would really become a reality. , This shows how terribly scared this guy was.

In the empire, if there is a person who can cause such an influence among the nobles, then there is no doubt that this person can only have one title-Gray Sword Saint, that is, Mei who followed Brando to the deck at this moment. First. For this legendary sword master, his appearance is well-known in the empire, and there is no need to explain it, because it is impossible for anyone to not know him. This is the case among ordinary people, let alone among the nobles.

Brando saw Rodney’s face and thought of the influence that Mephistophe had had in the southern aristocracy of the empire. He couldn’t help but glance at himself, the cheap swordsmanship teacher, with some curiosity. At what point can people be scared the first time they see it when they have never met before. People who don’t know may think that your old man has done something insulting people and gods in the empire, but it’s strange to say it. , In his memory, Grey Sword Saint had actually only made so much trouble in the empire. From the record, it seems to be no big deal. I don’t know why these people are so afraid of it. Are they too worried? , There is still another hidden story.

Mephistopheles glanced at his student dismissively, and was too lazy to answer this question. Although he and the empire had a hatred of subjugation, they would not waste time on a villain like Rodney. Of course he knew Brando’s purpose for letting him come with him, and now this guy’s purpose was achieved. He snorted from his nose and walked to the other side of the deck with one hand on his sword, looking out the sea beyond the harbor. The empty scene, simply came out of sight and out of mind.

The young people from Valhalla on the deck cast their admiring glances.

Brando was a bit speechless, knowing that his teacher had a different personality. He looked at Rodney and frowned slightly. To be honest, he didn’t have a good impression of this guy—whether it was because of this guy in history. What he is doing is still what he is doing now—not to mention that in the previous battles, his men were also damaged. After all, they were more than 30 knight commanders in the lower reaches of the gold, and his lads were of what strength, although they It was trained by the Buga, but the training time will not exceed half a year. Even if it is talented and supplemented by the mass-produced secondary dragon blood potion, it will be able to have the strength of the peak of black iron in less than half a year. Even if it was great, even if it was a mighty Valkyrie, the casualties were unavoidable.

And these casualties were originally unnecessary. The best young people in these kingdoms should have a great future, but they shed blood and buried their bones in a foreign country for no reason. Everything was because of the guy in front of him who caused himself trouble, thinking about this. , He couldn’t help being angry and wanted to order this guy to be thrown into the sea. Fortunately, Brando hasn’t lost his sanity yet. He knows that this guy in front of him is at least Veronica’s younger brother, and even though he is serving the Silver Queen, he has not betrayed the empire and put him in Madara’s embrace. Nominally He has not yet separated from the Erichko family, and more importantly, he wants to squeeze some surplus value out of this guy.

Thinking of this, his gaze directly skipped this guy, and fell on Marjorie behind. This young non-commissioned officer from the Royal Navy of Yanilasu took the initiative to be responsible for participating in the ambush, considering that all of his men were also involved in the ambush. Only this sergeant has the most experience, and this operation cannot afford to fail. That’s why he agreed to the other party’s request and gave him three ships to command him. Fortunately, the latter did not disappoint him and completed the mission. It’s very beautiful.

Marjorie put his hand on his chest and bowed to Brando with the courtesy of the middle and lower ranks of the navy, and replied: “Lord Lord, blessed by the gods, fortunately not insulted.”

Brando nodded and smiled: “Good job.”

The simple one sentence made Marjorie feel a little excited, but he immediately realized that he was not in the Royal Navy and that the other party was not his immediate superior. He couldn’t help but startled slightly, as if he didn’t know when. At the beginning, the member of their envoy began to be somewhat familiar with the command of the commander. However, he was a navy officer after all, and obedience to discipline and orders had already become nature. This thought only flashed in his mind, and he didn’t take it for granted.

On the contrary, the daughter of the Duke, who was behind Brando, was keenly aware of the difference in tone between the two. She looked at Marjorie and Brando with a complicated expression.

Brando took another look at the dark hatch behind Rodney, and cast a questioning look at Marjorie.

The young navy officer understood, and quickly replied: “My lord, the prison cart is inside. Follow your instructions. I didn’t let anyone approach that cabin.”

Brando nodded in satisfaction. It was the cusp of the storm. He didn’t want more people to know Faina’s identity. Some things are better in the dark than in the light, not to mention that he knows that the daughter The eldest lady’s temperament probably didn’t want too many people to see her down and down. Thinking of the high-ranking lady he met in the ring of trade winds, his mood was a little bit complicated. He thought that this was probably the so-called destiny, who would have thought that their second meeting would be at Under such circumstances.

…

In the dark prison, Faina shuddered in a corner shivering, her icy shackles were locked on the Duke’s daughter’s right ankle, connected to a heavy chain, she still didn’t know what happened outside, but Before, she clearly heard the roar of artillery fire, the sound of fighting, and the hull trembling violently. These sounds were very noisy at first, reached a peak in a certain period of time, and then gradually died down, and the whole ship became quiet.

At first, she could occasionally hear one or two kicking sounds, the sound of heavy objects falling, the sound of begging for mercy, and the sound of beasts wailing, but soon even these sounds disappeared, and at first she still felt the ship’s floor. It shook slightly, but then the whole ship came to a standstill, as if plunged into a completely silent world.

Faina didn’t know that this was because the ship was docking again. She only knew that the terrible roar of artillery fire scared her to hold her head and scream. After everything calmed down, she missed the noise very much. The endless silence made her feel that her heart seemed to be frozen. She didn’t know what was happening outside, and she seemed to be trapped in a dark space. In the huge unknown, this kind of hesitation about the future made the Duke daughter feel that there is a giant beast lurking in the dark front, waiting for her to hit her head on.

She heard her heart beating vigorously and banging in the dark, as if it were the only sound in the world. Fear made her lean against the cold wall, and she tried to call low a few times. A few times, trying to attract the attention of the guards outside the iron prison, but because of hunger and cold, her voice was soft and weak like a helpless lamb, and could not be heard outside the iron prison.

The huge anxiety finally made her cry in a low voice.

At this time, a stretched metal rubbing sound seemed to have pierced into a dark world. The young lady bounced off the ground as if she had been pierced by a needle. There were still tears on her cheek, but Looking around with wide eyes in horror. The sound faintly came from outside the cabin door, and soon there was a second sound. Faina only felt all the hairs on her body stand upside down. When she listened carefully, she finally heard clearly that someone was opening the lower deck. The sound of the cabin door, although she was a eldest lady, she was not ignorant. She knew that in such a warship, only the power room door was made of metal, and it was not far from the bottom cabin where she was.

somebody is coming?

Or something else?

The beast lurking in the unknown seemed to have forced her into her. She felt her little heart beat faster. Soon she heard a series of footsteps, which were not far from the cage. The place stopped outside, and then she heard a man talking, is it a pirate? Faina had this idea for the first time, because she knew that there was no airship in her father’s territory, and she would not wait until the ship left the port to rescue her, but who would fight against the Imperial Navy in the lofty inland sea? It could only be a pirate.

She knows that the pirates are likely to win. Although she doesn’t know how sacred the pirates are and can defeat the knights around Rodney, she has heard stories about those pirates since she was a child, and she knows what will fall into the hands of those pirates. The end, especially a girl like her.

Faina’s face turned pale, she wished that time would freeze at this moment and never move forward, or that those rude guys should never notice this prison car. Unfortunately, things went contrary to her wishes. She soon heard of the prison gate. Turn on the sound. With a sour sound, a ray of bright light shot from outside the prison gate, Faina almost buried her head for the first time, she curled up helplessly in the corner, but her heart was completely blank.

She was almost completely desperate, which was the worst outcome for her.

However, there is only a thin line between hell and heaven.

She heard a voice asking:

“Faina?”

That voice is so sweet, like a natural sound, this eldest daughter can swear to the heavens, she has never imagined for a moment in her life that that hateful voice will have such a nice day, so that she almost produced it. Hallucinations, thinking that I have heard hallucinations. She shivered and raised her head inconceivably. The light that penetrated into the darkness made her beautiful pupils shrink in circles. Under the dazzling and beautiful blonde hair that was now a little messy, her face was all mixed. The illusion of surprise and ecstasy.

She saw the face that was absolutely impossible to appear, but now she couldn’t be more real in front of her.
