Manktor is an inconspicuous little place name in the Four Realms. It is a beautiful field full of dills and marigolds, but it is neither inhabited nor passes through important trade routes. The wilderness stretches across an unknown land. Occasionally, travelers passing through this place will find that the sky is high and the clouds are vast, and there will always be a lone holy white stone monument standing on the horizon.
And that is the Holy White Monument.
A history well-known to the world has made it famous. More than a thousand years ago, the Four Saints, King of Fire Gilt, Queen of the Wind Saint Osol, Saint Faenzan and Earth Sage Airanta, led their people here, together with the Silver Elves, Buga people, The Chongshan dwarves, Hazel people, lion people and dragons signed a sacred oath - they carved their oaths on the stone tablets, and in the war that lasted for a hundred years, the Miner people were finally destroyed. The reign of darkness is completely over.
Although the Mountain Dwarves, Lionmen and Hazers have withdrawn from the covenant, they have not damaged the glory of this sacred oath itself. People even compared it to the oath of the people of order to fight against the dusk in the epic of the blue. This covenant not only allowed the people of black iron to become the leader of the world, but more importantly, it agreed to last for hundreds of years after that. of peace.
Although today, this covenant itself has faded somewhat, and later generations have gradually forgotten the brilliance and integrity of their ancestors. But at least people have not completely forgotten everything in the past. When the Twilight Dragon once again became the enemy of every people of order in the world, they once again remembered this lonely stone monument standing in the wilderness.
Since April of the Year of the Swift, envoys have been coming here one after another from all over the world.
The first to arrive were the Cruz people. In addition to the two legion commanders who had to stay in the Babel Fortress, the Cruz people's envoy also included the Great Holy See Valla, the old prime minister Nidwin, Duke Mehotofen, and Lu. Duke Deweg was among the envoys¡ªso much so that the lineup was a bit too large, which puzzled the other countries.
However, considering that the Flame King Gilt was the leader of the previous Holy Oath, the actions of the Cruz people are not incomprehensible.
Finally, there are the wind elves of Saint Osol. The wind elves sent out a lineup that was almost equal to that of the Cruz people. In addition to their regent Lord Lorraine Dell, Istovel, the real crown princes of the wind elves, the pair of hunter sisters. My brother is among them.
Tumen was traveling with the Faenzan people, and in addition to the first batch of the Faenzan Knights sent south to support the Cruz people, the Holy Light Temple, the Knights Kingdom Gracius, almost sent the entire country southward into the wilderness of the four realms. The Holy Light Knights In addition to participating in the war with Twilight, the regiment and the Supreme Judgment Knights were escorting a special envoy into the territory of Saint Osol.
As for the items escorted by the Faenzan people, the church kept it so secret that even the head of the Faenzan Knights in Babel Fortress had no idea.
??Except for the descendants of the three sages, the envoys of Madara¡¯s undead can be regarded as simple and simple. Except for a dark knight, there is almost no particularly important entourage, but the head of the envoy is something that no one dares to underestimate - because the founder of the dark empire, the supreme monarch of the undead, will personally Lead the team there.
When the undead souls of the Cruzes, Saint Osor, Faenzan and Madara arrived one after another, representatives from large and small countries and organizations from all over the world also arrived one after another. By June, this previously unknown little wilderness had a completely different scene. Looking down from the sky at Manktor - except for the holy white stone monument in the center, it was completely a sea of ??white - the camp. , tent and waving flag.
And a month later, one morning in the Moon of Fire, the dwarf king Kalifin and his dwarf army appeared on the horizon, in people's sight; three days later, the White Lions of the Eruin people arrived, and since The forces of this order are gathered together.
There seems to be a faint smell of midsummer in the air.
The summer wind from the White Mountains blows across the grassland, and large tracts of marigolds lower their heads one after another. Looking from a distance, there are waves of grass of different shades. There is a sweetness in the air, and wild bees are flying. It is the season when flowers are at their peak.
Brando stood in the grass and fields, quietly gazing at the holy white stone tablet on the horizon. The lonely boulder has not been weathered after thousands of years. It is said that the oaths of the four sages and the kings of the mainland were engraved there. On top of the boulder.
A faint light hangs down from the sky, covering a radius of several thousand meters around the center of the stone monument, like a strange scene. Even without getting close, Brando can feel the sacred atmosphere in it. It is similar to the oath in the Poem of Blue, witnessed by Tiamat's code. The laws that lie across this wilderness respond to the sacred wishes of the ancient kings. Agreement, maintaining its integrity.
He had no doubt that anythingAnyone with evil intentions who approaches this stone monument will be repulsed by the power of the law, and may even attract attacks from ancient spirits. This is why this place is still well-preserved after thousands of years.
This is actually a legacy of a saint.
He turned around, and not far away, the duel between Medissa, Morpheus, and Andrigue was still continuing, but the latter two were clearly at a disadvantage. Brando could see that the light and dark soul-stealing decks of Morpheus and Andrigg were very sharp, but the pure white fast attack of the Silver Elf Princess was even more terrifying. Raising the alarm kept summoning small groups of Holy Cults. The knight left Andrigue in a hurry and was unable to summon the vampire count. The light-winged guards were even more invincible after absorbing a large amount of mana. Even if they were occasionally torn apart by Morpheus, the ornithopters in the sky were in the holy white enchantment. Under the protection of the barrier, they are even more difficult to deal with than before their master fell.
The battle was a hard fight from the beginning, and Medissa was more like a majestic and meticulous grand leader mobilizing his knights than a planeswalker. Once the tokens she summoned took hold, various enchantments and BUFF spells fell on the army, making Morpheus and Andrigg even more difficult to resist.
This devastating scene reminded Brando of the Holy Grail Knight in "The Amber Sword". The knight of Heritz is relatively weak in frontal battles, far inferior to the warriors and even judges in the sacred system, but once let go The Holy Grail Knight has gained enough time and resources, and this kind of high-level knight will be unrivaled. More importantly, the Holy Grail Knight is the top team leader. The battlefield where he really exerts his power should be in team battles or even guild battles. The title of the strongest knight is by no means a waste.
Brando himself is a warrior, but he likes to team up with this kind of knights the most. Unfortunately, the number of Holy Grail knights in "Amber Sword" is very small. Firstly, because its knight doctrine is too strict for players. , and more importantly, the ability of this profession to fight alone is really too weak.
Medisa's performance made his eyes light up slightly. He had to say that Medisa's deck called 'Holy Offensive' was even better than the Holy Grail Knight, because it was an army in itself, plus the Silver Elf The princess herself is the best commander, and the combined power of the two increases exponentially.
It can be said that Morpheus and Andrigg's "Light and Dark Soul Reaper" deck is not inferior to "Holy Offensive" in a sense - the advantage of this deck is through black and white reincarnation and blood-sucking To win, the offensive is strange and deadly, like an unbeatable shadow, but it not only has the ability to survive, but with the support of the life-stealing barrier, it is more like a dark wizard who is good at curses - but it's a pity that , the experience of the two is far different from that of Medisa, and their tactics are not on the same level. When the latter summons the legendary archangel - Daybreak Archon Orima, it can be said that the victory is determined.
When the last two forbidden vampire lords were wiped out under Medissa's spear, Morpheus finally shook his head with a wry smile and lifted the barrier. A layer of gray-white light curtain in the air shattered into pieces, and the vampires also melted. The bat disappeared.
"Lord, Miss Medissa is so powerful" Vampires have no blood circulation and do not sweat. However, Morpheus still maintained some of the habits he had in life, and subconsciously panted a little, making him look more like a Weak little girl: "We are no match for her."
Andrique also walked over with a stern face, and her already pale face was as bad as a dark cloud.
Although they have not seen each other for a long time, Brando at least still knows the temper of his eldest lady, and hurriedly comforted: "Indeed, your deck is more suitable for fighting alone. Against those stronger opponents, the holy offensive The attack power seems a bit lacking, and in comparison, the Soul Seizing Light and Darkness is much easier to use."
The vampire princess glanced at him in surprise and gave him a look that meant 'you just understand'.
Brando couldn¡¯t help but shed tears of gratitude.
Morpheus stood aside with a smile, not caring much about winning or losing, as if just being by the Lord's side was enough to make him happy.
Medissa also walked down from the field at this time. She held up her long hair with one hand, and there was still glistening sweat on her white forehead. She put the spear aside, raised her head and gave her lord a gentle look. The ultimate smile: "Lord, how are you doing?"
Brando was stunned - Medisa and Hipamira returned to Warende with the Seven-pole Dragon King Fusia. It is said that they went to Eruin first, and then returned to the Wilderness of the Four Realms after making a fuss. . The three of them actually left Eruin later than the White Lions, but because of Fossia's powerful strength, they arrived at Manktor before the dwarf king Karifen.
But thisIt's not the key. What makes Brando a little distracted is that the little silver elf princess has changed so much since she came back from the trial ground. The little princess who was still a little childish before has now fully grown - like a blooming lily, with a perfect figure, a pure and flawless temperament, a snow-white knight costume, and a head of hair. With long silver hair that stretches straight to her waist like a waterfall, Her Royal Highness the Princess has gradually exuded the charm of a girl in the most glorious years of her life.
This unparalleled beauty made Brando couldn't help but stare at it for a moment. It wasn't until the cough of the staff lady came from behind that Brando came back to his senses and replied with some embarrassment: "It's okay, after all, you are There are also some land cards in the deck, which can hold up if it's just one or two battles. However, the efficiency of 'Rebirth and Annihilation' in converting life is too low. If it is a more difficult battle, I'm afraid you need to prepare more holy water in advance. OK."
Regarding Brando's distraction, the little silver elf princess's eyes were a little narrow, but there was also a hint of happiness. When she saw that the staff lady behind Brando seemed to have something to say, she obediently walked aside.
Antitina nodded to her: "The priests of the Temple of Fire are already seizing the time to make more holy water, but in order to cope with this war, the specifications of the holy water produced will not be too high. After all, high-standard holy water The price is too high, and it may provide a small amount of high-end combat power to some order parties. Lord, you do have this strength, but don¡¯t expect too much.¡±
Antitina arrived with the White Lions three days ago. Although Brando is no longer Count Tonigel, many people understand that a considerable number of the top officials of the Tonigel people are only loyal to him, not to mention that Princess Griffin and Haruze are still here for him. The position of Honorary Speaker remains in the Parliament of Nobles.
But even so, in fact, in order to avoid suspicion, Antitina herself gradually faded out of people's sight. On the one hand, she didn't care much about it, and on the other hand, she could have more time to pursue her own interests and interests. Research.
It¡¯s just that in front of Brando, she will always be the well-organized staff lady.
Brando glanced at Antitina guiltily. He actually understood that the Princess of Sifah had her own political ambitions in her heart, but she gave up so many things for him that he had to repay her no matter what. Unclear.
Fortunately, he finally understood the truth. Some things are like a bond, and it may not be a bad thing to repay them, just like family, friendship and love.
He nodded silently, understanding that what his staff lady said was indeed a problem. One truth in this world is that no matter how much money you have, there will always be a day when it is spent. In fact, from the hands of the chief priest Anman, The 'heritage' gained from the past has become less and less as time goes by, and is gradually insufficient for use. Although there are still some remaining, they are all low-end holy water that is of no use to him. Before leaving Eruin, he left them all to Princess Griffin and the White Lion Army. In fact, he only has high-end holy water left. Just drank a few bottles.
"Is there a solution?" Brando asked subconsciously, but then he was stunned and realized that he was no longer the Earl.
Antitina didn't care, and replied very naturally: "In fact, it is the Holy Temple that is really good at making holy water. The priests of Faenzan are much more professional in this regard than the Temple of Fire, and there are druids, Druids are also masters of pharmacy, it depends on the relationship between the lord and them."
Druid is easy to talk to, Brando thought, he has received the news that Funya will arrive in Manktor soon. Now the little girl he saved back then is the chosen one of the Forest Goddess and the next one. The most likely candidate for the Great Druid and Prophet of the Ring of the Sky, she holds a very important position in the Ring of the World and has quite a say.
And even if you put this factor aside, in fact, because of the battle in the Ring of Trade Winds, your reputation in the Ring of World is still relatively high.
As for the Faenzan people, this makes Brando a little strange.
In fact, the Faenzan people have come to him more than once these days, and the other party's attitude towards him is very strange. Although he was once a member of the Knights of Graysius in "The Amber Sword", that is not the same as this world. There is no connection. However, the grand leader of the Judgment Knights was very close to him, which always made him feel a little weird.
The people of Faenzan seem to know something.
But the other party didn¡¯t speak, and Brando wouldn¡¯t mention it easily. He looked up at the sky. It was almost time. According to the agreement, the real Holy Alliance meeting should be officially held today.
¡°Go back to the camp,¡± he said.
But it was at this time that a voice came from a distance: "Bu?Much! "
Brando turned around in astonishment, and with some surprise recognized the person who came - Faina, the daughter of Duke Mehotofen. But today's Faina is slightly unrecognizable to Brando.
