Scene 348 Under the Abyss VII

Favorite 【】, to provide you with wonderful novels to read. ()

Dark clouds gather in the north, and the direction of Ampersell Port is pitch black. But outside the port, there is a spark, as if lava flows all over the ground, which is the characteristic of the scorched place of the devil. The portal obviously connects the river of sulfur and Aruin, and the two sides show overlapping scenes.

In the Scorched Lands, the reworked portals glowed scarlet and were clearly visible from this direction, like agates scattered on a velvet black carpet.

The scene seemed to be doomsday, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath. After listening to Her Royal Highness's question, Brando was bowing his head and thinking about countermeasures. But at this moment, the 'dark cloud' in the sky suddenly changed direction like a whistling. The princess and the others were slightly taken aback, feeling a little wrong in their hearts. The knights couldn't help looking at each other, and then subconsciously turned their gazes to the young lord beside VII under the abyss in Act 340.

After all, none of them had actually seen the creatures of Jorgendigan, and the one who seemed to be the most knowledgeable here was undoubtedly the lord from Tonigel.

Only then did Brando come back to his senses. He raised his head and noticed the changes in the sky, his face changed suddenly, and he shouted, "Quick, cover the reflective things on your body with a cloak."

Harpies have excellent vision and are very sensitive to light, and they also like to collect shiny baubles to decorate their lairs, similar to their winged counterparts. And because of the same reason, they can easily detect the faint reflections tens of miles away, which makes them very good scouts - it was obviously someone's armor reflecting lightning and lightning that caught their attention. It was also because of his negligence that he forgot to mention it to others.

I think it's because I saw Qiao Gendigang's army earlier. The reason for the momentary loss of mind.

Everyone hurriedly wrapped their cloaks around the armor, and then fastened the tie around the neckline. But it seemed a bit late, they raised their heads, and saw a few 'dark clouds' in the northern sky had begun to move southward, and groups of strange creatures with pairs of wings spread out in the sky Under the Ten Acts of Abyss VII, in a blink of an eye, the sky and cover have already poured in.

Brando turned his head and saw that everyone's faces had completely lost their color. Princess Griffin is no exception. There are only seventeen of them in total, but there are thousands of harpies on the opposite side.

Even a knight subconsciously wanted to pull out his long sword, and Brando was taken aback and rushed over to hold the opponent's hand. "Don't move! They haven't found us yet!" He shouted loudly, afraid that someone would draw out his sword in a panic, and it would be too late once the reflection of the blade came out.

"Quick. Find a place to hide!"

Brando is well aware of the habits of the Harpy,

These cautious creatures must have come to check after attracting attention. They like to move in groups, but they may not have actually discovered them. After all, this place is still more than ten miles away, and the Harpy may not be able to detect the subtle movements under the forest.

But the knights had long lost their minds, and Brando's words became their only life-saving straw. They all retreated behind the black pine forest, looking for a place to hide. Brando took the princess to hide under a huge rock. This gray-white rock stretched across the top of the mountain and was covered with damp moss.

Brando put Her Royal Highness in first. Then stay at the entrance of the cave. He raised his head and found that Earl Odin was hiding behind a rock opposite him, and was yelling at him: "Horse!"

It was only then that Brando remembered that everyone's horses were still at the foot of the mountain, and suddenly they were one head and two big, but it was obviously unrealistic to rush down the mountain now. We can only hope that Martha will keep the harpies from finding those steeds.

In just a few minutes, the harpies arrived with a roar.

The sound of flapping wings passed overhead, making it clear that the winged creatures were close at hand. His heart was pounding, but Brando didn't dare to look out. He turned around and saw Princess Griffin sitting aside and looking at him. Although she looked a little nervous. But when he looked at him, his eyes seemed very calm.

"Don't worry." He mouthed her.

Princess Griffin nodded lightly, stroking her sword hilt with one hand.

He raised his head again, and Earl Odin's face was also pale. The two looked at each other and couldn't help smiling bitterly. He must not be much better himself. He dared to fight Williams, but that was because of Triximan's deck in hand, but now seventeen people are facing a thousand harpies, and there are ten times that number in the distance. Yan also drowned him.

Fortunately, although the harpies are very sensitive to light, their eyesight is very average. Besides, they are very cautious creatures, and they will certainly not descend below the canopy to check.

Brando, who knew this in his heart, felt a little relieved.

But at this moment, a throbbing flashed in his heart. It was like a sudden heartbeat, feeling that someone was peeping into one's secret.

The others were fine, but Brando, who had so much experience, realized what it was—magic! Discover the magic! He was sure that there was a pair of malicious eyes looking at the place through the crystal ball, and the blood-red robed demon warlocks from below the river of sulfur were best at it.

Her Royal Highness beside her turned pale, and her frail body trembled, as if she had sensed something. Brando felt bad subconsciously, and immediately reminded her: "Quick, don't think about anything you are most worried about now! Think about what to eat tonight, nasty carrot stew or oatmeal!"

The silver eyes of the half-elf girl looked at him puzzled.

"This is the devil's spell, black magic, it will affect your mind, and you can see the [answer] it wants to know through your mind. The more you fear, the more negative emotions accumulate, the more it can To see what you fear the most right now. That would give away our position!"

"But I don't hate eating carrot stew." Princess Griffin replied a little aggrieved.

"...It's impossible." Brando was dumbfounded.

But regardless of whether it was possible or not, just when the two of them felt a little more at ease, a scream suddenly came from the distant rain curtain. Someone was discovered, and Brando felt cold. I knew that he should let everyone hide together. After all, he is the only one here who has the experience of avoiding detection spells.

"Mr. Brando." Her Royal Highness shouted in a low voice.

Brando's hand clenched the hilt of the sword of the earth for a moment, should he rush out now? The Harpy is just a monster in the upper reaches of Silver, and the knights he brought are all at the peak of Silver, and rushing out at this time may still have time to save the opponent's life.

But what about Her Royal Highness? If he does it, can he lead these people to fight a way out from thousands of harpies?

Brando was not sure at all.

But he immediately felt cold fingers on the back of his hand. "Mr. Brando, I understand your thoughts. Thank you" Princess Griffin said softly, "But in any case, please don't violate our ideals and pursuits. This is the value of our existence."

She nodded to him.

Brando's heart moved slightly.

He suddenly understood why Otales warned him to be careful of the princess. He doesn't care. Princess Ingriffin has never changed. If she had chosen to compromise, she would not have broken with the royal party in the first place. In the face of ideal and reality. She has always been the Holy White Princess Her Royal Highness. Brando has never seen a person who can combine wisdom and firm belief.

The players of Eruin had never seen it before.

He made up his mind. Raising the sword and rushing out, a harpy immediately rushed towards him from above—her blood-red eyes on her beautiful female head gleamed with venomous light, and she opened her sharp claws, scraping at him like a knife. Come.

Brando took a step back, pursed his lips tightly, pulled out the sword of the earth with both hands and swept upwards, and the blade immediately cut off a pair of claws on the other side. The harpies that lost their balance screamed and fell backwards, hitting the trunk of the black pine tree with its head bursting.

Only then did Brando see clearly that the captured knight was in a bad situation, being besieged by the seven-headed harpies. He didn't even think about it. Raising his hand, a wind bomb shot in that direction. The wind bomb whirled and brushed across the treetops, and hit two harpies firmly, tearing apart each other's wings and showering a rain of blood.

The sudden attack frightened the harpies, and they scattered in all directions screaming strangely. The knight finally found a break. Looking back, he glanced at Brando gratefully.

"You shouldn't have come out, my lord." He laughed.

"I don't want to be like those Yankees who are shrinking their heads. Are you a royal party?" Brando saw that the other party should be a Lantonian.

"Exactly."

Brando nodded and shouted: "I heard that the Royal Party never abandons its companions. In this case, everyone. Why don't you follow my order to face the enemy head-on. Today we will kill a bloody road, and these monsters can't stop us!"

The knights were so excited that they couldn't help but suddenly agreed. They drew out their long swords one after another and quickly gathered together.

Now everyone was exposed to the Harpy's vision, and they screamed in the sky, but the power of Brando's wind bomb made these cautious creatures dare not try again for a while.

Only then did Brando reach out to help Her Royal Highness, in his impression that this stronger princess would definitely stand up by herself. But this time Princess Griffin put her hand in his, smiled politely at him, and then used his strength to stand beside him.

"Thank you, Mr. Brando." She said softly.

Brando heard unreserved trust from this sentence.

The harpies began their second attack, and they rained down. Brando hurriedly led the knights back. Behind them was a dense woodland, and the canopy of the black pine forest naturally blocked the attack of the harpies.

But sooner or later they would attack them through the layers of branches, and Brando knew that he had to find a way to go down the mountain and return to the horse. Harpies are good at fighting in the sky. Their specialty is flexibility, but they are not outstanding in speed and endurance. They have to find a way to get rid of them.

At this time, several harpies had descended from the tree canopy. Brando looked up and saw that the claws of these monsters were sharp and sharp. They clung to the tree trunks and jumped forward, which was no worse than flying. Slowly, it came to the top of their heads in a few clicks.

This scene was very similar to the scene when he first fought these flat-haired beasts in the wetland forest near Graywind Harbor. He subconsciously shouted: "Shoot them down, shoot them in the back as much as possible!"

The knights immediately took off the short bows or four-armed crossbows around their waists and aimed at the monsters. The harpies are terribly flexible. They hovered left and right among the tree trunks, and almost all the crossbow bolts they shot missed.

However, the knights quickly discovered the trick. They found that the harpy likes to stretch a certain distance behind when dodging. With Brando's reminder, the knights in the second round of shooting first calculated an advance amount behind these monsters , This time, more than half of the harpies were hit by arrows.

The knights were suddenly [excited]: "Lord, how do you know?"

"Knowledge is power. The answers in the world are all in the books." Brando stuttered.

These words sounded like an unfathomable wizard, and the knights suddenly showed awe. However, this sentence also reminded Her Royal Highness who was on the side of the knowledge that Lewoods had taught her, "The wisdom sharper than the sword is hidden in the scrolls" This is an old Cruz proverb. It is said that the mages all advocated the same idea.

Her hand was held tightly by Brando, and she kept running forward, but her heart was very quiet. I thought that Mr. Knight is worthy of being a Danilian, so he highly respects the knowledge of highland wizards.

At this time, Brando noticed that the experience value of the harpies killed by the knights was also counted on his head, one with 60 experience points. This is obviously the data after calculating the team penalty and level penalty, but the harpies he killed alone only had about 90 experience points.

This bit of experience is just a drizzle for him at the moment, but the key is to further prove his previous guess about team formation. It seems that as long as they are on the side of the alliance, they are considered to be on the same team as him, but they don't know what the upper limit of the distance is.

The group of people has passed through half of the forest at this moment, and there are more and more harpies climbing down from the tree trunks in all directions. So much so that they didn't dare to stop and rest for a moment, as long as they slowed down, they would fall into the siege. Two knights had already been dragged out of the outer periphery due to their negligence. One can imagine their fate while waiting.

Seeing that the end of the woods was approaching, there was an open space outside, a full hundred meters wide, and the harpy would obviously launch the most violent siege to them when they passed there. In fact, Brando already had some harpies Waiting to hover over there in the sky.

"Brando. What should we do next?" Apparently Earl Odin also noticed the ensuing embarrassment. But Brando looked around, unable to do anything for a while. The cards in his hand are almost useless, and some lack elements. The black wolf has also been summoned once, and only the concealment cloak of Punic, the king of giants, can escape this disaster.

But Punic's concealment cloak can only accommodate ten people, not to mention that it only lasts for less than five minutes.

"Everyone. Charge together hand in hand! Be careful not to be dragged out!" Brando activated the conflict halo, and the light yellow halo circle immediately spread out from around his body. Most of the knights recognized the signature skill of this templar, and they immediately understood what he was going to do.

Now it seems that there is no choice but to bite the bullet and rush out.

Brando looked outside the forest and decided to cast a water mist or similar spell first. Anyway, he has the rank of elementalist, and the water mist technique is just a second-level spell, so it's not difficult for him. The only trouble is that he is still wearing armor while galloping, and the chance of spell failure is frighteningly high. Brando tried three times in a row before finally releasing the spell.

The water mist technique is actually just creating a confused mist. This spell is extremely effective in preventing the enemy's precise long-range strikes. Brando wants to use this spell to prevent the harpies from taking advantage of their numbers. Unexpectedly, the moment he released the spell, an unexpected scene happened——

I saw that what appeared on the open space was not water mist, but a dark cloud. This dark cloud seemed to cover the entire hillside in a blink of an eye, and the surroundings were plunged into pitch blackness.

"What's going on?" The knights suddenly panicked, and Brando was also taken aback. This is not a water mist technique. Fortunately, this is not the first time he has fought in the dark - he has been fighting against Madara's Lich for a long time in the game, so he has to be prepared to deal with all kinds of dark spells - Brando performed fairly well Calmly, he subconsciously grasped the hand of Her Highness the Princess to ensure that the wizard who cast the spell was not coming towards the most important target around him, and at the same time held his breath to listen to the surrounding noises.

There was the sound of rain in the distance, but within the rain curtain was the equally panicked croaking of the Harpy.

It seems that the comer is not the enemy.

At least not Demon Warlock.

He was relieved a little, but it was this time. He felt an old voice in his heart: "Please follow me, my king. Don't worry about the danger around you, go north, I will wait for you there."

Brando was slightly taken aback, "Who are you, how can I trust you?" He asked subconsciously in his heart.

"Use your heart to sense, the darkness has no secrets in front of you, you should be able to feel that I am not malicious."

Brando took a light breath. He really didn't have a premonition of danger. The opponent's move in such a situation was obviously to help him, but everything should be cautious, so he hesitated. Only then did he say to everyone around him: "Everyone listen to me, join hands and follow me."

Then he held out his hand. He grabbed Earl Odin on the other side. Everyone held hands together, and Brando didn't know which direction the north was, but he faintly felt that one direction was safer, so he subconsciously walked in that direction step by step.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, the scream of the harpy in the darkness became farther and farther away.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this moment. After all, no one wants to die if they can not die. For this reason, the knights couldn't help being inexplicably grateful to Brando who led them to escape.

"Mr. Brando" came the voice of Princess Griffin from behind, "Is this your spell?"

"No. I don't know either." Brando replied. Because in fact he really has no idea, he has already opened up a spiritual connection in his heart, and started to contact Shire on the other side. God knows if this is another trap, he has to play it safe.

"Charles, you bloody bastard, did you hear..."

...

In the pine forest. The cadets have already temporarily set up a camp to shelter from the rain. A wooden wall is built of felled pine wood, and a waterproof canvas is supported on both sides to form a simple tent. In the tent, Makaro and others of the Royalist Party and Overwell are in a cold war.

It seemed that the royal party was about to break with the princess again, but those who had been here knew that it was just a disagreement over the next battle plan.

Overwell supports Brando's view, thinking that it is better to divide the defense zone with the Northern Allied Forces for the time being. But Marcaro can't trust those nobles in the north at all. In his opinion, the northern coalition army can be used as the main force and the Cruz people to resist the attack of demons. And they flanked the demons—

The parchment map that has been drawn countless times is now placed on the wooden table. The bonfire was burning not far away, and Antitina was whispering to Earl of Swallow Castle, Delfry, who was not interested in the nobles' battle plan; Brando unilaterally trusts absolutely, and naturally does not take notice of the proposals of the nobles.

However, the tired look on the noble daughter's face was very obvious, but she suppressed her yawn.

Marcaro and Overwell seem to be natural enemies. The two have disagreed on the future of the Royalist Party, and now they have disagreements on how to cooperate with the Northern Allied Forces. But fortunately, they still knew the current situation, at least they didn't fight, otherwise, the kingdom's cunning fox and lone wolf might have another duel here.

The older generation of courtiers in the kingdom may still remember the luck of the last duel, when the two were young; but at that time it was for the girl they loved, this time it was for ideals and beliefs.

And just when they were about to speak again, Charles walked in from the outside. He glanced at everyone in the tent, and said, "The lord is in trouble."

Everyone was taken aback.

"Okay, that's actually how it is. Her Royal Highness and the lord were spotted by the harpies of Jorgendigan, and they are currently under siege by an army of demons." Charles had to explain again.

"What did you say!?"
