Scene 139 Wen Yan’s Hope (1)

"Akane?"

The red-haired girl looked at him without saying a word and just shook her head; then she raised her head, and Brando had seen something from those burning amber eyes. He turned around and found the corridor on the second floor of the hall. I don't know when there was an uninvited guest.

In other words, it was already there, but he just didn't notice it before.

The tall skeleton is holding a battle axe, and its whole body is covered by an old brass armor. Its leaky jaws are slightly open, and a gap in the skull is like a silent mockery. Kabasi looked at him condescendingly, the dark yellow flames in his eyes flickering slightly. It had already recognized this young man whom it had met from a distance during the breakout battle at Fort Reeden.

"Viscount Tinsgang?"

Kabasi said in a hoarse voice, "Goodbye Ridenberg. Are you okay?"

"Ma-dala." Brando grinded out a few words from between his teeth.

Madara's undead, why are they here? The young man looked at Grudin with an indifferent expression. His thoughts changed quickly and he asked coldly: "When did the nobles of Madara and Eruin become as close as one family?"

"As time goes by, life will turn into dust. Only interests are eternal in this world, Mr. Viscount."

Kabasi replied in a low voice.

Its answer confirmed Brando's suspicion that Grudin had colluded with Madara. But what do they want? Brando raised his head and saw the tomahawk in the hand of the tall skeleton pointing diagonally between him and the despicable baron. Presumably, as soon as he takes action, Kabasi will not stand idly by.

This general under 'One-Eyed' Tagus, the lord of the dark kingdom, at least has the strength of the golden middle. And he himself has just touched the edge of the Golden Steps. Although the winner is not yet clear, it is not difficult for the other party to stop him from killing someone in front of his eyes.

Tagus moves step by step and is known for being cautious. Kabasi is here, and there will be no lack of support from the side. Brando turned around and saw a longing figure in the shadows on one side, and then a young man with a pale face and a gray robe walked out.

Roscoe is another old acquaintance; Brando remembers that when he first met him in Butchi, he was just a humble necromancer apprentice, but now he has two purple flame emblems on his collar.

Intermediate necromancer.

Brando fell silent, his eyes falling on Baron Grudin not far away.

The latter also regained some composure from the previous panic. The middle-aged man put one hand on the sawdust and tried to calm down with a sinking face. However, the swollen blood vessels under the blue-grey skin exposed his inner tension. .

But Brando turned the sword in his hand, and a faint light from the bright silver blade hit his eyes, making the latter shrink slightly. Grudin realized later that this was a silent joke. He was furious in his heart, but he couldn't hold it back on his face.

"I really didn't expect that someone could sell their soul to the devil," Brando replied coldly: "You rotten skeletons are here, your purpose must be to save this guy's life?"

Baron Grudin found some confidence from his allies. He grinded his teeth like a wild beast, with a fierce look in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Young man, you can just talk nonsense. But you understand in your heart. , even if you don’t rely on me, Madara’s allies, do you dare to be an enemy of the Jean Denel family? A momentary dispute of temper will inevitably lead to a war between the two families; in the final analysis - Viscount Tinsgang, Presumably your family will not allow you to go so far as not doing your job properly..."

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Brando's cold snort - as if the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped several degrees, so cold that ice shards fell from the air.

Except for the undead, almost everyone present could not help but shudder.

Baron Grudin froze even more, and the second half of his sentence was forever stuck in his throat. It's like he will never understand that he was so wrong from the beginning, because Brando is just a fake. In fact, the young man had a murderous intention in his heart. He raised his hand and the cage-handled sword was like a silver thread piercing Baron Grudin's throat.

The latter was stunned. He obviously didn't expect Brando to actually take action as soon as he said it. This was against the norm! For a moment, Baron Grudin stayed there without knowing how to dodge - if a heavy ax hadn't fallen from the sky and hit the ground with a bang, the long ax handle had choked Brando's sword in his hand - I'm afraid there would be no one left on the spot. It's just a dead body.

"I think I said it," Kabasi held the ax handle with his bony hands and looked down at the young man: "Baron Grudin is our important ally, and we can't hand him over to you so easily."

"I'm sorry, you didn't say that." Brando said tit for tat, and the two of them stepped back with force on their hands. Brando started the explosion of power, and both sides took three steps back, but no one gained the slightest advantage.

"Young man, it's time for you to retreat." Kabasi supported the ground with his battle ax before stopping. Then he raised his head and replied: "Madara and Eruin have already ceased fighting. Why do you and the Baron have to fight each other?" Provoking a war? There was such a big commotion in the hall that the guards outside the castle could not have noticed it. You are not worried about the servants you left in the courtyard at all—"

Brando's face darkened and he was about to continue.

"Mr. Brando!" But the red-haired girl grabbed his sleeve and gritted her teeth - Sanford and the rest of the Gray Wolf mercenary group were still outside.

"Miss Antitina, do you also think I shouldn't kill this scumbag?" Brando asked coldly.

The noble daughter was slightly startled, and then she recovered from the daze of the previous moment. She looked at Grudin sitting on the ground with a very expressionless face, and she wished she could crush his human-like face with one foot, so that she would be different from him; but she breathed a sigh of relief and forced herself to Holding back the discomfort in his heart, he replied:

"Sir, this guy is the lord of the kingdom after all."

There was something in the noble girl's words, she was pointing out Grudin's identity to Brando. These are troubled times, and there are more than one cases of nobles attacking each other. As long as the foundation is not harmed, the kingdom may not have time to pay attention to it - but she wants to tell Brando that the trouble lies with the people behind Grudin.

As the highest administrator of the border area of ​​Jeandenel in the Kingdom of Eruin, Count Jeandenel is a nominally privileged count, but in fact he has the same power as a prince; starting two generations ago, in order to deal with the barbarian invasion on the border , this family with a profound historical background began to usurp the noble private army. Today, local forces have almost become the only legal private army in the kingdom.

Even though there is a royal family that does not value these 'barbarians' and the factors that check and balance the autonomy of the mountain people, the power of this privileged earl in this chaotic world is evident.

If Brandoro killed his heir here, it would be like a declaration of war between the families. Although he claimed to be Viscount Gunstine, the paper could not contain the fire. These things could not withstand careful scrutiny-not to mention that the young man was interested in seeking a territory. People can run, but the newly born territory is vulnerable. Facing the raging anger of Count Jean Denel, I am afraid that it will only be destroyed in the end.

The noble girl did not want to see the young man's hard work go to waste, so she hoped that he would think twice before acting. But on the one hand, she was not willing to show even the slightest bit of cowardice in front of this baron with a human face and an animal heart, which is why she spoke so darkly.

However, she firmly believed that the young man in front of her would be able to understand every hidden meaning of hers in detail.

Brando snorted coldly.

"Evaluate the situation and think twice before you act." Kabasi's cracked and leaky jaw seemed to symbolize a silent smile.

The sword in the young man's hand was pointing diagonally at the ground. His eyes were staring at Grudin from behind the tall skeleton, his eyes were cold, as if he was looking down at a dead dog——

Feeling the outspoken cold murderous intention in Brando's heart, Grudin hardened up, or maybe because he was hiding behind Kabasi, he sneered: "If you don't kill me today, Mr. Viscount, you will definitely do it the next day." I’ll give it back twice as much—”

The Baron of Tonigel almost uttered these words through gritted teeth. He had never suffered such a great humiliation since he was a child. The gentry who had previously invited to see Brando's jokes now seemed more like shooting themselves in the face. The frustration made him feel angry.

But he was about to say something to further anger Brando, so that the young man would lose his mind and fight with Kabasi, both of whom would suffer losses. But just as he was about to speak, he saw Brando raise his hand——

A ray of silver light flew past his cheek.

Baron Grudin was stunned, and half of the hair on one side of his face suddenly fell down. His face felt hot and painful, and in the eyes of others, there was a dazzling blood stain. He touched it with his hand dully, then put it down to see - his palm was full of eye-catching blood, and the powerful lord of Eruin suddenly howled like a pig.

Kabasi was unmoved. The tall skeleton knew the effect of Brando's blow without looking back. It is not Grudin's bodyguard, and there is no need to take action just for this slight injury. Besides, it would be better to teach the latter a lesson, so that the arrogant and arrogant noble will not always understand the relationship between them.

It looked at Brando again. The young man put down his hand and said coldly: "Keep your dog head and come get it next time -"

After that, he glanced around the hall, and the cold breath forced everyone to take a step back. Then the young man turned back, glanced at Antitina and Akane, and walked out of the hall without saying a word and shaking hands.

As soon as he turned around, the guards and heavy-armored guards who had already heard the news outside the hall immediately separated on both sides. As a joke, most of them happened to witness the scene where Brando showed off his power and killed the more than twenty knights with one blow. Even if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you still don't understand what kind of murderer this young man is from others. As long as he doesn't get into trouble with their lord, they'll be thankful, and they won't dare to stop him.

Although Grudin, who was howling in the hall, was angry and anxious, he wanted to let his men keep Brando here, but when he finished speaking, he thought of Brando's cold sword before.

The Baron opened his mouth, but the last words stuck in his throat.
