The Amber Sword: Act 73 The Overlap of the Thousand Years iii
Great Glacier --
This is a frozen and frozen world, criss-crossing glaciers, like a glass of crystals stacked together. The icy cold wind rolled with ice and snow all year round, like sharp sharp blades, engraving deep scars on the smooth ice surface, forming the rugged and weird landform day by day. However, in such a harsh and sinister environment, there are still outsider's
Figure, an old wizard wearing silver robe is struggling in the snow stealth. He is holding an ivory magic staff and pressing one hand on the pointed wizard hat that seems to be blown away at any time. The white beard is The immersed ice wind fluttered wildly, stepping deep and shallow in the snow close to the knees. The magic staff in his hand was called 'Tir', which means knowledge, owned by Buga.
Three handles to the key to truth -- Knowledge, wisdom and reason, but this divine artifact is now being used as a general use of Staff.
Old wizard moved slowly along the valley, as small as an ant. He crossed the blue ice and stopped in an open space.
Here is a huge valley, with black rocks protruding from under the snow, forming the precipitous peaks around it. Between the peaks, the snow has become much smaller. The old wizard looked around. There was an artificial building in the valley. It was supposed to be a High Tower suspended in the air. It was a bit like a beautiful obelisk. It was white and snow-white, reaching hundreds of feet. /
It was fragmented and crashed into the valley. A part of its wreckage already was buried under snow, and the surface that was originally covered with mysterious patterns was also frozen. Obviously, the damage was not recent.
"third seat." Old wizard shook his head and said to himself.
As if in response to his words, there was a scornful hum in the cold wind. It was a female voice, husky, but full of majesty and strength: "William, I said earlier You will return here, how, you should be aware of already, the boundary of order is accelerating to vanish, the fragile Laws is gradually collapsed and disintegrated, everything is as described in oracles
And your ridiculous efforts are simply futile. This time, there is no more fool to save you --.
Old wizard -- or one of the supreme one standing at the pinnacle of this world, one of the silver Twelfth Circle, Master of Kanaech, the king of Time and Space --, he did not change his face, and even smiled slightly: "Dear Fuciakaeth, or I should call you For the seven poles Dragon King, or the evil dragon Fucia, or Dalasteia, the dragon girl who dominates the storm and time
Child? "
"Hum!"
This cold hum seemed to turn into a storm, causing the icy wind to rise in the valley. The woman's voice coldly replied: "If you really respect me so much, why would you imprison me in this place? My eyes have been seen for three thousand years. Since you chose to betray, I am waiting here. , Waiting for you to taste the bitter fruit yourself, and now you come back here and tell me
, what are you thinking now? "
"Master Fuciakaeth, no one has ever regretted it." William replied loudly in the face of the snow and wind.
"Did you see the waves of the sea at Mana, William, you might as well guess what was born under the surface calmness?" the voice scoffed.
William slightly raised eyebrow: "I understand that you know, Fuciakaeth, I am here today to just ask you, what do you see, what happened in the east? We are feeling that Tiamat's Laws is starting The speed has not changed in the past millennium. We do n’t understand what happened. The tide of Mana is rising day by day, and the month of Mana is falling.
The reflection of the sea in another world is beginning to become turbulent, but we cannot find the reason behind it. "
"What do you see?" Fuciakaeth asked.
"In just one month, we lost thirty observation points. As you said, the border of order is accelerating to vanish. Just in the big glacier, we have lost three holy towers. "
The woman's voice smiled scornfully: "I saw Fire Seed goes out with my own eyes, and I knew you would definitely come here."
"Tell me, what else do you see?"
"In the harvest month, our wizard observed the black moon --"
"Black Moon," Fuciakaeth chuckled: "The thirteenth moon, she finally appeared, how is it, isn't it beautiful?"
"She destroyed Caleta, and people there observed the scene that day."
"What kind of sight is it?"
"High Tower, as if immersed in the dark night," William replied.
"The reflection of babel." Fuciakaeth replied: "But this is still not the root cause and purpose of your coming here."
William looked up at the mountains around the valley, and then replied: "I feel that all observation points throughout the eastern boundary have shifted -- in at the same moment"
"Do you suspect it's my hands and feet?"
William did not answer.
"Funny," Fuciakaeth sneered, "I'll give you some advice, William."
"Moon, lost --"
...
Even in winter, the temperature on this day is a bit abnormal. The sun is far away in midair, but after crossing the middle line, it shines directly on the ground, making everyone wait a little while waiting. Get restless. Jean Count and his army simultaneously disarmed and surrendered already for a while. At first Brando thought this was a trap, but after trial and error
I found the other person to be sincere. Although I don't know what these Kirrlutz noble are doing, he still successfully buried their weapons and temporarily held the noble army at the Red Pine Forest land. Now he just wants to know what happened to the Lord Count who was opposite -- What medicine?
But Jean Count was unwilling to see him in person. He had to let Princess Magdelle and Ciel do the work for him. He waited for a while before finally Ciel rushed back from Red Pine Forest, and the young wizard attendant brought him the first sentence The words are: "Lord Thane, already find out what is going on."
Brando looked at him, calm and didn't rush to speak, although this was the answer he had long wanted.
Ciel then replied: "Moore and Cooper, Walker, and Orkens Count, they are not ambush here. In fact, from this morning, no, from last night, Jean Count could not be contacted. . "
"What do you mean?" This answer made Brando for a moment not understand. He asked frowned slightly.
"Unclear, Jean Count can't say clearly either. According to his description, those people seem to be missing. He thought we were doing it, so he was forced to surrender to us." Ciel replied somewhat funny, the person Lord Count was clearly frightened by him.
"Missing?"
Brando asked for a while, "What does this mean?"
"Literally, the troops of Moore and Cooper started three days ago and were stationed at Hemlock Town until yesterday. The army of Walker stayed at Vargus Town and Orkens Count was stationed near Forestleaf Highway, but now these troops are missing. Now, at least Jean Count he can't contact them. "Ciel replied.
"Is this possible?" Brando found this to be unbelievable: "I'm sure this will not be a trap. Has our Gargoyle carefully searched for nearby areas?"
He asked that this sentence was actually nonsense. Before that, they searched the nearby area several times with already, convinced that no trace of the enemy was found, and they dared to accept the surrender of Jean Count. Moreover, even if this is a trap, the Lord Count on the other side will certainly find a way to tell a lie that is at least a bit of common sense, instead of making up such a fabled story.
The other party's description is more outrageous, in fact it proves the reliability of what he said.
Sure enough, Ciel shook his head slightly: "It looks like it's not a lie. You don't see the Lord Count. He seems to be really frightened. He doesn't want to see you, mostly because he's afraid you are not good for him. "
Brando shook his head in disbelief: "Have you dispatched Gargoyle and scout near Hemlock Town, Vargus Town and Forestleaf Highway?"
"You have to ask Ms. Medissa and Nemesis, Lord Thane, I am not responsible for this." Ciel replied.
Brando just remembered that he couldn't help but patted his brain, thinking that already was completely dizzy by the strange situation now. So he hurried to find Medissa, who was arranging for the placement of Kirrlutzian captives. At present, this group of captives is almost the largest number of captives they have come to accommodate, and there are a thousand people, and many of them are not
noble, there are mercenary, or farmers, artisan soldiers, these people can be more troublesome to handle than noble, because they have to provide them with food. According to Ciel's, these people simply let it go, they are very excited about this proposal Brando , But he understood that he must not be so hasty, because then his intention would become too obvious.
When Brando found Medissa, asked about the situation of scout and Gargoyle. Silver Elf Little Princess seemed to have expected him to come to her, so he immediately answered: "Lord Thane, Vargus Town and Forestleaf Highway are far away from us, but they are sent to Gargoyle already of Hemlock Town. I came back once, as the Lord Count said, there was no figure there, either.
No trace of fighting. "
"No trace of fighting?"
Medissa nodded.
Brando is getting more and more strange, or is it that Orkens Count got the wind in advance and left Jean Count and ran away alone? But this reason sounds a bit ridiculous. If he is running alone, then it is not necessary to bring Moore, Cooper and Walker Knight and Thanes, but if he has the ability to notify others to run together, then it may not be
Leaving Jean Count, even if he wants to sell teammates, his first choice should be those small nobles without power and power. Brando really can't see what the other party has and the Jean family's need to turn their faces.
But it's even stranger if it's something else, because there's no reason to make sense at all.
He asked Ciel to ask the Lord Count several times, but all reached similar conclusions, which made him for a moment confused. Although it is a rare good thing to say that he can win without blood. But the problem is that the current situation is really creepy. A large army of thousands of people, in an area of dozens of miles, is one night.
Jian disappeared out of thin air. What's the situation like this?
Unfortunately, Brando can only let the envoy stop first, waiting for Gargoyle and scout to return the message from Vargus Town and Forestleaf Highway. From the description of Jean Count, he felt vaguely wrong, it was like an instinct for danger. Foreboding, he experienced a variety of abnormal conditions in game, these experiences provided him with a wealth of experience to deal with various
A sudden situation.
At 1:00 in the afternoon, Gargoyle still could not return from Vargus Town and Forestleaf Highway. However, at this time Nemesis finally returned to the White Lion Guards from the mission. Her main quest / mission was to send Little Prince and other people in the mission -- including Kirrlutzian noble captives Come here to join the big army, Brando had earlier felt that this battle had some problems,
That's why this more reliable Female Knight was sent to do this.
In general, miss merchant Romaine and Delfhyr handle this matter.
After returning to White Lion Guards from Nemesis, after hearing other people ’s descriptions, frowned immediately said: "How far is this from Rocerch -- Broken Sword Mountain Range Fortresses?"
Brando immediately understood what she was thinking, including previous life. The two have been working together for a long time. Sometimes with only one look, one word can understand the meaning of the other. He immediately shook his head: "Here The nearest fortress to Rocerch -- Broken Sword Mountain Range Fortresses is not far away, but it is far away from Torquine. Here is Floating Cloud Hills, according to the nearest consumer.
Interest, Torquine's Leonin is still south of the Anzeluta mountain range. Even if they break through the fortress at the same time we get the news, it is impossible to rush here. "
"Not to mention they're still there," Ciel added.
Brando nodded, but said: "But it does not rule out that those nobles provided us with false news."
"Why is this good for them, Lord Thane?" Ciel asked.
"No good," Brando replied: "Kirrlutz noble cannot be on the side with Leonin. They have no meaning in lying to us in this matter, but the problem is, if they say that the information themselves is not accurate, ? "
But this time Medissa shook his head: "Lord Thane, these days, in accordance with the orders of Nemesis, we have been collecting similar news among the captives, but the rumors obtained are similar. Unless Leonin intentionally deceives the empire, those noble should be true. "
"Unless Leonin intentionally deceives the empire?"
Brando suddenly caught this sentence keenly. He glanced at Nemesis. According to their earlier analysis, Leonin stood still south of Rocerch -- Broken Sword Mountain Range Fortresses, unless there was any internal disagreement, or it was deliberately deceiving the paralyzed legion border. The possibility of the former is very small, Leonin is a clan kingdom, in the chief and chief priests
Under the leadership, if there is no contradiction between the two, then there is almost no possibility of differences within this army, and there may be some small contradictions between the clans, but they will not hurt. As for the high chief and the high priest, the possibility of problems is even smaller.
The leader of Torquine in this era is Lion King Aur, a famous monarch. He is the student of this generation of high priests. There has never been any unpleasant rumors between them.
But if it's not the former, then it's only possible the latter.
But before that, Brando didn't have enough information, so for a moment could only set aside the trend of Leonin. However, at the moment, as soon as Medissa reminded him, he immediately remembered, subconsciously said: "Are there in upperclasswoman, Anzeluta underground? The tunnel left by the ancient dwarves? "
In a hurry, he lost his voice and called the White Reed upperclasswoman in another world, but fortunately, others didn't seem to notice this detail. Only Nemesis gave him a slight glance and shook his head. :
"There are indeed dwarven attacks underground in the Anzeluta area, but Torquine Leonin is unlikely to use them."
"Why?" Brando asked for a moment.
