Scene 24: The Sky VI
Brando swore that if he knew what it was like to be buried in the sand, he would rather surrender than run away.
At first, he felt his body falling rapidly in the darkness, and countless objects rolled down from his side with the sound of the wind, only a faint light appeared in the direction above his head——that direction should be the underground hall that was collapsing.
After about a second or two, he felt a sharp impact.
A normal person would probably be crushed under such an impact, but the physical strength of the golden peak is nothing. Brando only felt that he had hit a sloping slope, and then rolled down the sharp rocks. He tried to hold on to something, but in vain in the darkness, a mass of mud and sand rolled him down until he hit a flat rock.
Brando felt the first impact, and then the second impact was a limp body hitting him. He immediately realized that it was Akane, and a larger amount of rocks and sand were rolling down on the top of his head. Brando hurriedly pulled the girl down, then turned over and blocked her with his body.
In about an instant, there was a loud bang, and several huge rocks hit him heavily. Of course, this is nothing to Brando, it feels like being hit by a few sticks, but a lot of sand makes him miserable.
He had just coughed, and his mouth was full of sand.
But this is not the most tragic experience, the key is that as soon as he lowered his head subconsciously intending to spit out the sand in his mouth, he met a pair of sparkling eyes. Those were a pair of quiet, curious and shy eyes, which obviously belonged to a certain mountain girl who liked to wear long ponytails——Sy was protected by Brando, and she just looked at her lord obediently and motionlessly .
It is not difficult for Brando or Qian to see things in the dark, and both of them can clearly see each other's state.
Fortunately, it seems that this is not the first time that the two have encountered such a situation. The last time was in the Ring of Trade Winds. When he was hunted down by Mire, he experienced almost the same situation. After the first experience, at least the second time will not seem so embarrassing.
"Lord Lord." Qian whispered, she blinked: "Thank you."
"Woo." Brando's mouth was full of sand, and he was suffering. He was almost cheek to cheek with Akane. You can't spit sand in the opponent's face. And there was still rumble outside, obviously the collapse would not be over for a while.
But Brando didn't answer, but the mountain girl looked at him carefully. After a while, Brando suddenly felt that Qian seemed to move, and then gently leaned his forehead against his chest.
This seemingly unintentional action gave Brando a slight pause in his heart,
He subconsciously lowered his head and saw Akane curled up in his arms like a child.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"?"
"I'm sorry..." Qian seemed to be awakened by his voice, startled, and quickly let go of her hand. Brando watched her shrink back cautiously. I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable: "Actually, it doesn't matter...Are you afraid?"
Akane frowned and shook her head slightly.
Brando was silent for a while, to be honest. He couldn't see what the girl was thinking. In fact, since the battle of Ampere Sear. Ma Kaluo came to see her several times, but she refused them all. On weekdays, Akane is also taciturn. Only occasionally accompany Roman—but according to the rest of the Gray Wolf Mercenary Group, she should not have been like this before.
He thought about it for a while, and felt that he was really not suitable for guessing girls' thoughts, after all, he was a super useless person in this regard in his previous life. Shaking his head, he decided to change the subject and said, "Qian, how did you break through Auvena's element before?"
"Huh?" The mountain girl was slightly taken aback, then raised her head and looked at him curiously.
"You don't know?" Brando was stunned, and of course he could see that there was no trace of falsehood in Qian's expression.
Akane shook her head in bewilderment.
"Strange..." Brando was even more confused than Qian, he knew the power of Owena's fate element very well. Owena's destiny element is very similar to a word spirit, but its effect is much stronger than that. If you can't break through your own destiny, you will never be able to defeat her, or even just attack her.
But the problem is, as an existence in the golden field, it is obviously an impossible task to break free from the elemental power of the legendary hero who has mastered the power of existence.
Don't talk about him or Qian, I'm afraid even Master William of the silver storm can't do the same.
Could it be because of the dragon blood? However, I have never heard that the blood of the people of gold can leapfrog the challenge. It can only be said that the talent is better.
Brando frowned and couldn't find a clue, but it was at this moment that he suddenly felt something, raised his head, and found that the movement of the rocks rolling down really became smaller. This is undoubtedly the best news for him at the moment. He hurriedly put aside the messy thoughts in his head, stretched out his hand, and easily lifted the rocks that were pressing on him. The sand rolled down into the darkness together.
Brando crawled out of the rubble three times, five times and two times, and then rescued Akane from it. The two finally came to a flatter rock. Looking around, they found that the collapsed hall had formed a A huge void, and they were in the middle of this void, and any artificial traces above their heads had long since disappeared.
Brando looked around. In theory, when the floor of the hall collapsed, besides him and Qian, William and Owena should also be engulfed in the sand, and the others should not be too dangerous to be bound by the lightning cage to the wall. . But Brando wanted to find William and Owena in the dark, but he couldn't see a single figure.
"Strange." He was slightly taken aback. According to the strength of Owena and William, they should be able to get out of trouble earlier than him. The previous collapse seemed dangerous, but for existences of their level, in fact It shouldn't be a hassle at all.
"My lord, look over there!" After being dragged out of the gravel by Brando, Qian has been standing beside him without saying a word, but as a half dragon, her eyesight is obviously much better than that of Brando. up.
Brando looked in the direction she said, and after a while, he saw a light point flying out of the darkness. But it wasn't until the light source got closer that he realized that it wasn't a point of light at all. Instead, it was William flying in mid-air holding a glowing staff.
And even closer. Brando suddenly saw that the old mage was still holding a person in his hand-judging from the platinum-gold body made of lightning, who wasn't Owena?
William's flying technique was extremely fast, and he came to Brando almost in an instant. He fell down. The robe flew up lightly, and then landed firmly in front of Brando. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he threw Owena to Brando.
"She's unconscious?" Brando stared dumbfounded at Owena, who had her eyes closed. I can't believe that this is the heroic spirit who was invincible before. Normally, as long as the body is perfected, even if you fall from a height of several thousand feet, you will not pass out. This is too cheap.
"You guessed it right, little guy, her strength declined sharply after leaving that hall," the old mage replied, "When I found her, her strength was at most only silver-ranked. And the magic power on her body The loss is still going on. It can be predicted that if it continues, it may be difficult for her to maintain her body."
"I see." Brando was slightly startled. But he was a little bit troubled. He couldn't help looking at the lightning girl on the ground and said, "Then what's the situation now? Whether we won or lost, this guy doesn't want to renege on his debt, does he?"
"Ahem... what do you think of me!" Brando just finished speaking. Unexpectedly, Owena, who was unconscious on the ground, suddenly woke up. Although she still looked a little weak, she still gave Brando an angry look: "Although I hate opportunists the most, but winning is winning." , I will never deny it!"
The girl took a breath, and then her face became much ruddy. Brando and William on the side frowned slightly, because at the same time they found that the aura of power on Owena's body seemed to become stronger all of a sudden.
"Your strength can still recover?" Brando couldn't help blurting out and asked: "Isn't the hall destroyed? Wait, you..."
He narrowed his eyes, as if realizing something.
But the silver mage leader obviously reacted one step earlier than him, with a dazed look on his face.
"Hmph, you're still a little smart." Owena replied angrily, "It's almost as you guessed. It's not that the closer I get to the hall, the stronger my power is. It's that the closer I get to the Holy Lance, the stronger the power of the sky is. Peak state, as you must have guessed, I am not some sky-blue knight——I am the sky."
"Ha..." Brando seemed to have been punched in the face: "So you directed and acted everything before?"
"Not all of them. As an artifact, of course I have a reason to choose my owner." Owena raised her chin and replied proudly.
"Well, it has nothing to do with us anyway," Brando shrugged. It was not the first time he had seen magic equipment with a soul. Doesn’t the Fenghou ring in his hand seal the heroic spirits from the War of the Saints era? What’s more, many famous magic equipment in the Amber Sword have similar mechanisms, but the sealed heroic spirits alone are so powerful Yes, it was his first time seeing him.
But the more this is the case, the more it can prove the value of the sky. He thought for a while, then continued, "Anyway, you admit that we won before, right, so now you can choose who will be your owner, right?"
"Yes—" Owena gritted her teeth and replied, "But before that, I have a question."
"Um?"
"I want to know, how can she penetrate my elemental power!" The girl in the lightning state looked at Akane who was aside again, with an incredible look on her face again. Like Brando, she couldn't figure out why a gold The existence of Tier can even ignore the influence of her destiny elements.
Brando glanced at Qian and thought for a while, "Maybe it's because of the dragon blood?"
"Impossible!" Owena categorically vetoed: "It's just the people of gold, when did their bloodlines have such power? Unless there is some genetic mutation in the past ten thousand years, but the probability is too small. "
"Genetic mutation?" Brando chewed the word word by word. Is there such a setting in the Amber Sword?
But the lightning girl just snorted coldly and didn't answer him.
There seemed to be a moment of silence in the darkness, until Archmage William thought for a while and said, "Maybe I know why?"
"Huh?" Everyone turned their attention to him.
"In our history, there are some things that can change people's fate and break free from the shackles of fate." The old mage replied slowly: "Brando, you know that little girl Aloz."
"Ah!" Brando suddenly exclaimed, with a look of sudden realization: "So that's it, I know!"
