The Amber Sword: Act 20 The Persuader
Persuasion Act Twenty ()
Bretton sat down, glanced at Brando, and determined that this guy was lying. He and Brando were in the same period of militia at Anchorite. Although they had not seen it during Bruglas, they also knew each other's experiences.
A son of Miller, even if his grandfather is Knight of November War, his mother has a little bloodline of noble, but can have any strange experience. Then he was transferred to the guard, and the boy was said to have inherited his father's business, but somehow went to Bucce for a year.
This year is obviously not likely to let him grow those insights, but if the kid wants to lie, he really has to weigh whether he can deceive Marden. Bretton glanced over to one's own Captain. Although their old Captain was very bad and stubborn, they were very savvy. The general lie can be punctured by him in a few words.
After all, soldiers who can survive and survive from November War are not simple people.
After Bretton sat down, the youngster of the other security team probably saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and then began to follow Bretton's previous supplement. He was talking about some details from the beginning of the day to the encounter in the afternoon, and the surrounding Puppet Seoul nodded or added a socket. There was only Bretton and the old Captain did not say a word in the group.
The Marden that Brando knows is very bad-tempered and almost scolds people. However, at the critical moment, he was at ease, this is the quality of the veteran, but his silver grey eyebrow occasionally moved slightly, showing inner anxiety.
As for Bretton, make up your mind and just sit back and watch.
Brando As soon as they described it, they knew who they were encountering. The army that followed from Bucce should be 'Lich' Rothko. The Rothko in game is a very talented Necromancer. This nickname is also given to him by players. His talent is Lich --. The undead of the summoned soul is more easily transformed into Lich --. Therefore, his army has a feature to supplement the troops very quickly. Although it is not strong, it is forbearant, cunning, and good at using cannon fodder to consume the enemy and polish the morale of the enemy.
Rothko in this season should only be a Undead Magician apprentice. Brando guesses that his status in the Targus attack sequence will not exceed the identity of a squadron Captain. In fact, he guessed the same, but he couldn't think of how he and the other party already saw -- on the night when he escaped from Bucce.
The other army does not need to guess. In history, it was Cabas that leveled Green Village. This bone shelf is not famous in the history of Madara, but the seniority, this time should be already is a member of Targus.
So the squadron size of Rothko should be more than two hundred, and there are at least twenty Lich. Cabas as a main force should also concentrate at least one-fifth of the left Targus troops, such a large-scale army is certainly impossible to have only skeleton soldiers, maybe there will be black warriors and Cang White Knight.
Fortunately, Undead Army has to block several main roads in the forest. The troops cannot be concentrated in one place. Today the refugees should encounter half of the squadrons of Rothko and one of the Cabas squadrons, otherwise it would not be so easy Retreat.
Of course Brando can't be so detailed, otherwise the source of the news will be very problematic. Those legends, anecdotes, or stories can be said before, and even the enemy's troop arrangement is clear. Being a prophet is also skillful.
He decided to start from the previous topic. He paused and said, "I don't know if you have heard of Ansel. This is the base of Necromancer. In fact, Madara is divided into three factions, one faction. It is vampire, one is Necromancer, I will not explain the two factions, you should have heard the legend about them. And the remaining faction is also a real power with considerable strength. We call them Dark Thane. thieves and bandits during their lifetime , Templar Knight who committed the crime, noble or undead wanderers expelled from the human world, they believe in Black Codex and are rulers in the traditional sense of Madara. "
"It's novel, but it's just a story." A guard member replied.
"No, you imagine that when one person unites these three factions, Madara will rise from the dark. Coincidentally, they have a oracles about this."
"But you said before that this country has never really been unified."
"In the past, but this opportunity already is near."
"But what does it matter to us?"
"Of course, have you heard the legend of Mercury Staff?" Brando suddenly changed the subject.
"It is the oracles. Legend has it that someone will unify the mercury Staff of Dark World?" Some of the security team members asked.
Brando nodded: "Its full name is 'Loki's Mercury Staff', let me tell you who Loki is. He is a genius Necromancer, who almost completed that great cause -- unified Madara in his alive time. Then, the whereabouts of the Staff also became a mystery, leaving only a legend that when someone got it, he would become the king of Dark World again.
"But since this spring, some people have seen Mercury Staff appear in Ansel."
"Wait," Bretton changed his face: "That rumor was true a few months ago?"
"A few months ago?"
"Ah, I remember, it seems that a businessman brought the news over there, saying that someone opened a door with a strange Staff."
"Door of Lament." Brando added: "That is the treasure house of Loki's, also where his throne is located --"
The brow of the old guard Captain frowned deeply: "Boy, although I don't quite understand the intrigue between those big men, but you mean that Madara has changed a lot in China? That's wonderful, at least it means This time Madara must have been prepared. Although it is not clear what their purpose is, at least it will not be a predatory, invading? It sounds a bit ridiculous, but it seems that it is not impossible -- "
His calloused hand was on his knee, and there was very close to his sabre: "Bretton, do you know this youngster?"
Bretton hesitated. He knew that at this time as long as he opened his mouth to doubt, although Captain would not immediately pierce the boy with a sword, but at least he would catch him up and make him speechless.
He couldn't help glancing Brando gloomily, without concealing the irony in his eyes. However, after thinking about it, he did not choose this way: "I know him and I think he is lying. But my reason tells me that this person has no reason to deceive us --"
"What if already is bought by Madara." Marden asked again.
"I didn't think about it that way, but considering his and Freya's experience, if Madara's Commander can be arranged so far-reaching, then I don't think I am wrong.
"Very good, Bretton boy." Marden patted the shoulder of his deputy.
Hey?
Not only Marden, but even Brando can't help but look at this young guard lieutenant. It doesn't seem that this guy is worthless. Of course, the impression of abomination is that it cannot be changed, and the mind is too narrow to be a big tool. He talked about the other person's character in the perspective of God. Of course, Bretton must know that the thoughts in Brando at this moment must regret the fair words he said before.
But Bretton does n’t matter if it denies or stigmatizes. Brando has its own way of persuading Marden. As a person who is foreseeing the future prophet, already stands at a higher level after all.
It's just that it's inevitable that it will take a lot of talking, and maybe there will be some handles.
"Well, let's get back to the topic," Marden said, "boy, so you think the Madara's target is Rydenburg?"
"In Golan-Elsen, the only defense line that Aouine can rely on is Vanmier Fort. Rydenburg protects the flanks of this line of defense, so the Madara's target can only be Rydenburg." Brando nodded.
Marden ca n’t help rubbing his nose and cursing: “Now that Madara ’s determination has been made, presumably it wo n’t be any small character that bit us before? unbelievable, why do we have to carry a scumbag? Something! "
"I don't know the specific situation," Brando said it was not clear. "But from your description, the one who followed before should be a undead army led by Necromancer. And the subsequent one It may be Dark Thane ’s army -- "
"Necromancer's military establishment is based on Lich. It is very easy to distinguish. According to your description, it should be half the size of the squadron. Dark Thane is more confusing, but from the perspective of the troops reserved by Green Village, at least it is also More than two squadrons. "
"Almost." Marden nodded.
But he didn't know that Brando already would reduce the number of half, but even if less of half, everyone could not help but worry. With Undead Army of this scale, how can their more than thirty guard teams member and a group of old and weak women and children break through successfully?
Old Captain also sighed: "Okay, Brando. Since you came to tell us this, can I think that already has an idea in your heart? I might as well tell you clearly, if the battle is really like you said, I I ’m not sure I can take these people out.
This made Freya lowly a cry.
But Brando nodded: "I have a way."
Everyone's eyes were all focused on him. Even the Bretton's distrust, but it was inevitable.
This makes Brando a little nervous about breathed in. In the final analysis, he has just got some confidence, and this attention still makes youngster feel a little stressful. Suddenly he realized that every sentence he said next might be related to the life and death of many people, and whether he should be more careful.
He couldn't help reminding himself to calm down, don't remember what was lost.
"Everyone can go north and cross River of Daggers." He replied.
"River of Daggers?"
"That place, why?"
Brando hesitated a bit, how can he explain clearly why in history, ‘White Knight’ Ivanton and ’Undead Ghosts’ Weyton arrived at this place for a delay of nearly two days?
