Why would it be the Sacred Sword Amber?
Brando certainly remembered that this was the only Sacred Sword that players had the chance to come into contact with in the game, but how could Oderfeiss be Amber?
His thoughts came to an abrupt end because Bradley's attack had arrived in front of him. Bradley, the sword bearer, was known as the Flame Sword Saint. In the Holy Cathedral, this title was not something that everyone could have. At least it meant that the bearer had mastered an extremely high level of fire element.
Bradley was one such bearer. When he was 30 years old, he became famous in a battle. After becoming a Knight of the Holy Cathedral, he was directly chosen by the previous Great Holy See to be the backup of the Flame Blessed. However, he did not walk the path of a Flame Blessed Knight. Instead, he climbed all the way from the Priest and Bishop to the highest level of power in the Holy Cathedral. Valachin appointed him as the next Knight of the Flame Blessed. This position was equivalent to the servant of the Flame Blessed, and had supreme honor.
Because he had mastered the fire element, which was the same as Gilt's, the people of the Empire often rumored that Bradley was the successor of the Flame Blessed, and that the Flame Blessed Oderfeiss would one day appear in the Empire in his hands.
However, decades later, this prophecy did not come true. Ironically, Bradley actually witnessed the resurrection of Oderfeiss with his own eyes, but it was not in his hands.
If it was 50 years ago, he might have been furious because he was not chosen by the Path of the Golden Flames. However, after half a century of hardships, he had long been accustomed to the changes in power and power. His faith in the Path of the Golden Flames was also firm and would not be easily shaken.
What was faith? Faith was persistence.
This kind of persistence could even be called stubbornness, but it would never be weakness.
Bradley was definitely a stubborn person.
Even his sword was called 'Determination'. It was said that it was once the sword of a Flame Blessed Knight of the first generation. The sword was half an arm long, and it could be used with one hand or with two hands. It was firm when attacking, as its name suggested, and it was unstoppable.
The long sword swept over with fractal flames. Before it reached Brando, Brando felt a scorching aura. This was the power from the Fire Elemental Plane that could burn everything, the power of the Ultimate Realm.
However, the power of the Law was immediately weakened to below the peak of the Law by the Gap of Lonia. The high temperature of the flames seemed to be bearable, not to mention that Brando was holding the Sacred Sword Oderfeiss, which was a real Fire Blessed Sword.
He turned around Oderfeiss's sword. Clang! The two swords collided in the darkness. Sparks flew like a bird of Fire in the forest, and immediately ignited the bushes and canopy of the trees.......
As soon as the two of them exchanged blows, the forest had already fallen into a sea of fire. The imperial guards who had chased into the forest immediately screamed and ran out. Many of the Flame Knights in the forest and their colleagues who had rushed over thought that they could stay and help. After all, they were people who were blessed by the fire. How could they be afraid of such an environment like the motley crowd?
However, dreams were very plentiful, but reality was often very cruel. As soon as the knights approached the burning flames, their expressions immediately changed. The flames burning in the forest were not ordinary flames, but elemental flames that came from the power of Hell Babatar.
This kind of power was one level higher than the flames summoned by the Elementalists. Even if it was the Magic Flame, it was not something that the Flame Blessed Knight could easily withstand. The Flame Blessed allowed them to resist at most ordinary flames.
Not only them, but even The Shire, Andrique, and Mephistopheles in the forest were forced to stay away. A battle between two Supreme Realms was not something that they could intervene in.
The Flame Blessed Knight stood far away from the forest, looking at the young man who was fighting with Bradley with a complicated expression. Whether he won or lost, at least at this moment, he could be called the youngest Supreme Realm master in Wohnde.
The Supreme Sword Saint in his early twenties.
He was not a descendant of a top noble in a big empire. Although he was a descendant of Sword Saint Darius, everyone knew that this young man did not actually get anything from the Earth Sword Saint.
Perhaps at most, he had inherited the excellent bloodline of the Earth Sword Saint.
"He can't defeat the sword wielder … right?"
For some reason, at this moment, such a ridiculous idea suddenly appeared in everyone's mind.
From an outsider's point of view, Brando's current state was indeed not good.
Although he managed to block Bradley's sword, only the physical attack was deflected. The weakened power of the flame still penetrated the protection of the Collision Halo and slashed heavily on his chest. After the Lonia Gap weakened the last part of the attack, the remaining flame still burned his coat to nothing.
Brando groaned. The count's coat that had been pierced by the Flawless Spear finally died, revealing the golden-gray armor and tight-fitting combat suit underneath.
However, he did not actually suffer much from this attack. At most, there were some burns from the high temperature. This was because the Templar Knight's defense was too ridiculous, and the Lonia Gap, an ancient artifact, was powerful enough.
Brando took the time to glance at his status panel. Seeing that he was still in good condition, he immediately took a step forward and changed from one hand to two. The Holy Sword Oderfeiss that had been knocked away by 'Determination' spun half a circle in the air and slashed at Bradley.
Bradley had only gotten one thing wrong, and that was that Brendel, who was only at the middle level of the Law of Pinnacle, was actually not weaker than him in a head-on battle.
Therefore, after his attack, he had misjudged Brando's ability to counterattack.
When Brando's sword slashed at him with a bright golden flame line, the Flame Sword Saint suddenly realized his mistake. However, he was an experienced Sword Saint after all. He immediately took half a step back and raised his sword to block.
"Opportunity —!"
Brando's thoughts flashed like lightning, and a deep light flashed in his eyes.
The Flame Sword Saint, Bradley, who was fully focused, happened to catch that flash of light. He couldn't help but be shocked. As a warrior who had been on the battlefield for a long time, he naturally knew what that gaze meant.
That was the decisiveness of an opportunity —
In Wohnde, when a Swordsman under the Gold rank duel, the difference in personal quality and realm strength would often decide everything. But after the Element Manifestation, the difference in swordsmanship between the two sides would rise to an extremely high level.
The term 'Sword Saint' came from this.
But if you were to ask the top Sword Saints or even the Ultimate Sword Saints what decided the outcome of a battle, some people would say that it was the psychological quality, the state of the battle, and even the aura, these mysterious things.
But as a true veteran Swordsman who had experienced hundreds of battles and was also one of the few people in Wohnde who could see the Ultimate Realm, Bradley understood that these factors could be summed up in one sentence:
Experience.
In fact, very few people understood that Brando's greatest reliance was not his own extraordinary swordsmanship, nor was it the strength that made people despair at his age. Instead, it was the terrifying combat experience that he had accumulated through the hundreds of years in the game and in this world. Countless battles, countless life and death situations, and countless lessons learned from countless people.
Or it could be said that battle instincts.
In a battle of life and death, which decision was wrong and which decision was right, it was very likely that would determine whether you would be able to survive the next strike.
This was why for many newbies, the experience of walking on the edge of life and death was often the most precious. But how much experience could a person have? It was easier for a person to have such experience to lie on the ground and become a cold corpse.
But Brando was different.
In this world, his experience was like a monster's existence. Even an old Sword Saint like Bradley, in fact, unless he had reached the Ultimate Realm, he didn't care about anything else.
'Because the scenery I've seen is something you've never even imagined —'
This was why Bradley was so shocked. Because in such a young Swordsman, he actually saw the decisiveness that could only be seen in the most experienced Warriors.
And the moment he missed, Brando had already struck.
The Crown of Thorns was fully activated, the Soul Crystal, the Berserk talent, and the unimaginable strength of Holy Sword Oderfeiss completely erupted at this moment.
Brando's longsword moved forward, and the crimson flames that fell from the sky also moved forward. A dazzling light appeared under the clouds, and this sword actually produced an aura that seemed to be able to sweep away a thousand armies.
The opportunity left for Bradley was no opportunity at all because Brando had almost perfectly grasped his mistake. He could only rely on his Ultimate Realm strength to barely resist this attack.
He almost didn't hesitate to open the Ultimate Plains.
But at this moment —
What the Flame Sword Saint didn't expect was that 'Determination' in his hand actually cracked like a weak wooden sword. It was easily cut into two by Brando's fragmented Holy Sword Oderfeiss.
Bradley was shocked. Although it wasn't difficult to find praises for the Holy Sword that the Flame King had once used in the various books of the Holy Cathedral, and even the documents recorded on parchment often used lofty words like 'Radiance', 'Holiness', and 'Supreme'. But what made him go crazy was that the previous generation of monks seemed to have unanimously forgotten this matter. They had never described how sharp this sword was.
So at this moment, he had to use his own experience to prove that the Holy Sword wasn't just a verbal praise.
After all, the sword was a sharp weapon for killing. No matter how glorious the words on it were, it couldn't change its true appearance in battle.
At this time, Bradley's heart was full of regret. He made up his mind that if he returned to the Holy Cathedral, he would definitely correct this flamboyant and unrealistic style.
However, at this moment, he could only watch helplessly as the unstoppable sword slashed at the laws around him. It was no different from slashing at him.
He was directly sent flying, drawing a golden-red line in the forest, and heavily crashed into the mountain behind him.
But before the power on Brando's sword could fully erupt, a dazzling golden line with the tip of his sword as the center extended forward, and the entire mountain slope in front of him was split into two.
Above the line, the mountain and the vegetation on it were fragmented and turned into fine powder.
Below the line, the incision was as smooth as a mirror.
At this moment, almost everyone fell into a state of speechless shock for a long time.
… …
Bradley didn't die, and he wasn't even seriously injured, but the remaining Supreme Realm powerhouses in the sky couldn't sit still.
Richard, Royer, Saipan, and Willek were originally prepared by the Silver Queen to deal with Mephisto and Sidney, who might be hiding in the dark.
And according to the news from the battlefield in East Metz, this young man had three extremely powerful subordinates who looked like ancient creatures like the Valkyries.
But no matter what, four Supreme Realm powerhouses against two Supreme Realm powerhouses was a piece of cake. Even if there were a few Valkyries who hadn't reached the Supreme Realm, it would still be more than enough.
As for the sword wielder, Bradley, he was specially prepared by the Queen to deal with this young count for insurance. Brando wasn't wrong on this point.
But what no one expected was that this plan actually had a problem from the very beginning.
Greysword Saint-mephistopheles and the Saintess of Leo Palace, Sidney, hadn't appeared yet, but Bradley, who was supposed to be a butcher's paw, had actually lost to this young man.
Of course, perhaps it was too early to say who won and who lost, but anyone could see that Brando's current strength was not inferior to Bradley's. Not only did the latter lose his sword in the previous attack, but he was also seriously injured. Under such circumstances, it wouldn't be so easy to defeat this young count.
The top existences of the Empire couldn't help but look at each other.
Now the question for them was, who would go up?
They had seen the previous battle in the sky with their own eyes. Although the strength Brando displayed couldn't be said to be overwhelming, it should be on par with the strongest of them, Saipan and the Lion Sword Saint, Richard.
And there was no doubt that the Ash Sword Saint, who was able to escape from the attacks of two Supreme Realm powerhouses when he was at the peak of the Law Realm, was probably no weaker than them now.
Not to mention the Saintess, who was known as the strongest under the Empire of Vaala.
At this moment, any one of them could easily suppress Brando if they cooperated with Bradley, but the problem was, if Mephisto and Sidney joined forces later, would the remaining three still be a match for them?
In the end, after hesitating for a moment, Willek drew his sword.
The Twin Paragons of the Empire knew that he was the weakest among the remaining four. Although the young man below could suppress Bradley, he definitely wouldn't be a match for two Supreme Realm powerhouses. Therefore, there was no difference whether the weakest or the strongest went down.
When Mephisto and Sidney appeared later, the stronger one would have a better chance of winning.
However, just as he pulled out his sword, a black sword edge suddenly pierced through the void without any warning. This sword edge seemed to split open space, and what followed was a gray space that unfolded.
At that moment, Willek didn't even have time to react as the sword was about to touch his throat. If it weren't for the Lion Sword Saint, Richard, who was at the side, who suddenly attacked and repelled Willek, he would have died prematurely.
Willek was stunned for a moment before he reacted. Then, he looked in that direction with a gloomy expression.
There was no doubt that he knew who had come. But what made everyone's heart sink was that the other party's strength was higher than they had imagined.
This was already the strength of a middle level Supreme Realm powerhouse.
According to the intelligence, this person had just stepped into the Extreme Plains from the Land of Trade Winds a year ago. What kind of advancement speed was this?
Richard immediately withdrew his sword and said coldly.
"Long time no see, Mephisto."
"That's right." A voice in the void replied, "So, your opponent is me, Richard."
"You want to save your student." Richard smiled disdainfully, "You can stop me, but who else can you stop?"
But before he could finish his sentence, Willek's expression changed drastically as he yelled, "That's right.
"Great, Great Sage?!"
