The Amber Sword: Act 213 Preparation for War (2)
Preparing for Act 213 (2)
The situation of Druid surprised Brando. The number of survivors of Green Tower alone exceeded thousands, and the number of Druid apprentices and Forest Elf from successive settlements has surpassed the original number of Faithwind Circle. A quarter of the total population of the inhabitants is much better than the tragic scene of ten trips in history after Wolf Disaster. Brando originally thought that it was necessary to pay more for the history of Druid on its own, but now it looks like he has to do better than imagined, which shows that thousands of players in history may not play at all What effect did the two Great Wizard Williams and Thurman of Silver Alliance play the general role of sea calming divine rod.
Druids greeted them returning from Faithwind Circle with the highest specifications. Although the city is in a state of waste at the moment, hundreds of high rank Druid still draw precious mana from the pool of nature. Rosewall from ten miles away has been laid out for Brando. A road of flowers, the day when a group of people arrived at Green Tower, the whole city almost came out.
The guys are a bit excited, because Brando joked with them before that maybe there will be elf beauties offering sweet kisses and listening to a few noble children. Of course, the imaginary scene did not appear, elven girl still Reserved and conservative, they hid in the woods and looked at these 'foreign' heroes with caution and curiosity.
Xiang kiss did not, but at least everyone received a bunch of garlands from elven girl, and Brando had two, but unfortunately he hadn't had time to see the two elven girls that sent him the garlands.
It was Quinniel that led the Druid elders out to meet them. The Forest Elf's Boss strode in front of the Brando, spread his arms, hugged youngster and touched his shoulder gently. This is the highest courtesy of the hunter for his comrades-in-arms. It can be seen that the Forest Elf's Boss already recognizes the glory of working alongside Brando. For elf, this is a life-and-death relationship.
Then Quinniel retreat took one step and said in Forest Elf: "a’atonmesstalar." (Forest and you are evergreen, my friend.)
Fortunately, Brando understands, he also calmly replied in Forest Elf: "atarosdar, x’dormun." (Forest evergreen, bowstring shrill cry.)
Quinniel flashed a little surprise on his face. The language Forest Elf developed from the Mu language is completely different from the mainstream Wind Elf language. He did not expect this human friend to understand the meaning of this sentence, but I plan to explain it after I have finished speaking, but I did not expect that Brando not only understood, but answered in full accordance with the etiquette of Forest Elf.
The elders of Druid behind Quinniel also showed a surprised look. A human being knows their habits very well, which is a very incredible thing in human society. Of course, they don't know that Brando is different from ordinary people. He has 'lived' in many places and knows many humanities and customs that ordinary people don't understand.
At this time, a kind smile appeared on Quinniel's face: "You have not disappointed our expectations, and we will not violate our vows. Now you are the Thane of this land." He raised his hands, in his heart. It was a white acorn.
Brando was shocked when he saw the oak: "This is the fruit of Holy White Oak Tree? Give me this thing ...?"
In the tradition of Forest Elf, worshiping Holy White Oak Tree, the guardian and destination of all the spirits in the forest, there is such a Holy White Oak Tree where Green Tower stores Fire Seed, which is the spiritual destination of all elf and Druid. Quinniel gave him the fruit of this oak tree, which meant to treat him as the master. Generally speaking, only Druid Great Elder was entitled to hold the fruit of Holy White Oak Tree.
"You should know our tradition well, Brando." Quinniel said to Brando with the divine fruit in his hands.
Brando nodded, looking at the smiling Quinniel and the Druids behind him in amazement inexplicably, because he saved the place, so these people worshiped? This is a bit outrageous.
Quinniel seems to see Brando's doubts, explaining: "Originally, we and Druids will follow our customs and gradually migrate out of the civilized area and station in the new Black Forest. However, we have carefully considered Lord Thane Your proposal, if you really want to open up the path of wilderness to trace the ancient sages, we are willing to attach to you. "
"There are also considerations for recuperation, right?" Brando asked.
Quinniel's face shows a look of appreciation. As Forest Elf, they rarely turn around in negotiations. Brando is clearly aware of their habits, and is willing to follow the local customs. He nodded: "Yes, we and Druid need several years to recuperate, and in these years just let us witness you fulfill your promise."
"I'm afraid it's not enough for a few years, but if you just want to see if I'm talking, I don't mind." Brando nodded, ecstatic in his heart. Things went more smoothly than he thought. He originally said to Druids that those long-term plans were to keep these Forest Elf, Druid and Centaur. Of course, now Green Tower has suffered heavy losses. Although the population is better preserved than in history, most of the 10,000 people are elderly, children and women. warrior has suffered heavy losses in Wolf Disaster. Even if you join him, you cannot temporarily How much assistance will be provided in the next war, at best it is a long-term investment forget it/that's all.
But Brando did not make a decision immediately after taking over the oak tree. He thought for a while before saying, "But I think we should maintain the alliance. This is my territory, but also your home. We have A common goal does not require those red tapes. "
"Why?" Quinniel did not expect that Brando would quit, he could see that the original goal of this youngster was this land.
"I need a wholehearted ally, not a subordinate who feels constrained." Brando replied, he knew that Forest Elf and Druid could not be used to living in the way of human society, since he might as well be more generous, Anyway, warrior of Druid and Forest Elf will definitely join his army in order to defend the home of one's own.
Quinniel gave him a serious look, and then he looked back at the other Druid elders. Everyone's face showed a satisfied look.
"You are the most different human I have ever seen, Brando, can we be friends?" Quinniel asked.
Brando nodded. Friends need time to witness. He understands the meaning of Forest Elf.
"So my friend, can I invite you to our celebration for you?" Quinniel smiled slightly.
But he didn't expect that this time Brando shook his head: "I'm afraid not, Quinniel, I need your help."
"Help?"
"Yes, I will leave here temporarily to return to the one's own territory. But I need a batch of supplies, armour and weapons, and a batch of Pegasus that can send us out of Black Forest as soon as possible." Brando replied.
As soon as this remark was made, all of a sudden it quieted down.
The Cagliss behind Brando and the old Swordsman Curran suddenly understood why Brando had to hurriedly return to Green Tower with other people. It seemed that there was something wrong with the territory.
Quinniel was silent.
"Are you in trouble, human friend?"
"Well, my territory is threatened. I have to resolve this little problem before I can come back and continue to fulfill our agreement with you."
"Is the war?"
Brando nodded.
The tall Forest Elf Boss's eyes showed a clear look. He straightened up, turned to everyone, and shouted to the people in the forest, "Have you heard, our human allies need an army that can fight, He once rescued the everyone from the darkest place alone and dangerously. Now, my compatriots, could it be that, are you the kind who cares for your life? "
Quinniel's voice echoed through the forest. He was stunned by Brando. He certainly knew the current situation of Druid. It was difficult for them to continue to participate in the war. But what Forest Elf Boss is doing now, Correct is convening the army.
"Quinniel, you ..."
"I will fight alongside you, human companions." Quinniel smiled at him slightly: "You are right, this is your territory, and our home, how can we protect this precious without going through blood and fighting? Treasure? "
No **** answer.
But the elfs with long bows came out one by one in the forest. Many of them were women, because most of the adult males already were killed in Wolf Disaster. Then Centaur, Centaur will certainly not take a step back in the pursuit of the glory of battle.
Druids also responded to the call. Such a group of people are indifferent to the outside world, but it does not mean that their inner heart is indifferent. -- is just like what they had promised and the guarded war is meaningful to them.
Even so, this army of forest foreign exchange gathered only a few hundred people. The loss of Druid side in Wolf Disaster is too great, and this is also no way out. But at this time, everyone's expectations were that elves had not stood still, and a group of people came out of the forest. It was mercenary and adventurers. Those humans wore a variety of armour from all over the place, as if they were a beggar-like army, but they all stood up.
After these people came out, the forest was quiet again.
Soon, a man was elected from those people.
"Master Thane, we can only survive this unfortunate disaster thanks to your favor. Now I heard that you need an army." The bearded man was a little bit embarrassed when the man blinked and spread his hands. He asked arrogantly: "Then I dare to ask, do you need an army that was born specifically for war and is willing to accept your employment?"
Brando suddenly felt a bit speechless.
"What kind of price can you offer?" he asked in a deep voice, as if he were really talking about the price.
"How about a gold coin?" the man asked.
Brando looks at him --
"Well, now you are my Knight, a gold coin, I promise to take you to witness my victory." He replied.
No extra answer. mercenaries pulled out the one's own sword and held it up. A forest of swords. Then elves took the one's own longbow up.
Brando Suddenly there was a strange feeling in the heart. Human beings and elf stood together again after thousands of years. The sacred vows in the past seemed to reappear at this moment. No one will forget today's covenant, and witness the everyone at this moment, I am afraid I will remember this moment with my life.
The youngsters behind him also pulled out the sword. Such a scene is so shocking that even Curran and Mephisto, whose home feeling is not so clear, can't help losing their language ability.
An alliance like this doesn't seem to be strong, but in the end it seems to have some kind of Mana that can change everything.
