Brando walked to Sifrid's side and placed his hand on her shoulder. "Sifrid is a sensible child." He raised his head and looked at the tall Druid elder. "I treat her as my own sister, and I'm entrusting her to you according to her wishes. As for whether or not she can become a citizen of the forest (in Vaunte, another name for Druids), I don't care, but I ask that you must ensure her safety. "He paused, and his tone became more serious." This, can you do it? "
Andellu nodded: "There's no need for you to say it, My Lord."
"Thank you, Brother Brando." Sifrid held onto the corner of her clothes with both of her hands and replied obediently.
Brando smiled faintly and patted her forehead. The little girl's seriousness and sensibility were naturally lovable no matter where she went, but Brando did not mind her request to form an 'alliance' with the Druids. He could see that Andellu was unwilling at first, but since they had Valhalla as a connection, it was only natural for them to form an alliance.
He turned to Amandina and said: "Amandina, bring Sifrid to prepare the things we need for the journey."
"Eh?" Amandina looked at Andellu as if she had just recovered from her thoughts. She looked at Brando with a puzzled expression: "I'm going?"
"Of course," Brando replied: "Even though Sifrid is still a child, she's still a girl. Only a girl like you would know what to bring. Otherwise, we can only let the Roman do it for us. "He smiled and changed the topic:" But are you okay with leaving Sifrid in her hands? "
Amandina thought of Romaine's carefree attitude. She was afraid that Romaine would fill Sifrid's little backpack with her favorite glass beads, even though she had spent a lot of effort to buy them from the merchants back in Bucce. She sighed: "But … … Can't Scarlett do it?"
"She's not as attentive as you." Brando replied.
Amandina glanced at him and felt an inexplicable joy in her heart. But when she saw Brando's gaze, she knew that he had something else to say. She thought for a moment and asked: "Is there anything else, My Lord?"
"Inform Cornelius to come see me." Brando replied.
Amandina nodded and walked over to Sifrid's little hand. She took the little girl's hand and led her out of the door and closed it behind her. When they left, the only people left in the room were Brendel, Andrew, Andrew, and Brendel, as well as the Elven girl who was hugging a record book.
"Do you have any other orders, Sir Overlord?" Andrew looked at the ambitious young man and asked. Even though he was not a worldly man, he knew that Brendel did not simply send Sifrid away to prepare her luggage. "We are Druids, and we don't know how to beat around the bush. My Lord, please speak your mind."
"I'm very busy, so I won't be sending you off for the rest of your journey." Brando replied: "I do have some things to say. I know that you don't think our alliance is essential —"
"My Lord." Randt, who was behind Andrew, frowned and interrupted him. But he immediately saw Brando waving at him.
"Wait for me to finish." Brando opened his mouth: "I know the Druids' attitude towards the Dark Forest, and I also know the agreement between you and Niya. This is your tradition, but I also have something to tell you. The power of Chaos is very strong. "
"You're a member of All for One?" Andellu's eyes turned cold: "Silver Sky Snake? Tree Herders, or Sheepshead Cultists? "
"I thought you would put the Tree Herders at the front."
The Druid snorted coldly.
"Neither." But Brando shook his head. "Those people you're talking about are all my enemies."
"But the enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend."
"Indeed," the young suzerain said without hesitation. "But you and I both know that this era is coming to an end, and the Demon Moon is about to reach its peak. The last Magic Tide ended the era of Chaos, and no one knows what will happen this time. In such an environment, it is no different from a fantasy for you to suppress the growth of the Dark Forest. "
"So what?"
"I know much more about the Dark Forest than you do."
Andellu crossed his arms and looked at the young man with extreme suspicion. They were people who had dealt with the Dark Forest all their lives, but now a stranger told them that he knew more about the forest than they did. This feeling was even more ridiculous than showing one's slight skill in front of an expert. It was simply arrogance for no reason.
Brando just smiled: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Think back, before the era of Chaos, the area of Wohnde was less than a quarter of what it is today. Who opened up such a vast territory and turned the thorny Dark Forest into the land of civilization today? "
Andellu was a little proud: "It was the Druids."
Brando still shook his head. "To be exact, it was the ancient Druids of the Ring of the World. After the fall of the Tower of Babel, the Dark Dragon scattered the Druids in the wilderness, and the Ring of the World was divided into the Tree Herders and the orthodox Druids today. "He paused:" I don't need to say this, do I? "
"My Lord is indeed knowledgeable."
"No, it's just that we have something in common." Brendel sighed deliberately. "Ever since the fall of the Tower of Babel, there has been a rift between the ancient magic system and the modern magic system. Both the Druids and the wizards are looking for the ancient heritage, but I happen to know a member of the Dragon Clan, and I happen to know some of the doctrines of the Druids. "
"You know ancient magic?" Andellu's eyes flashed and became sharp. He knew that the only known Golden Tribe in this world was the Dragon Clan. Dragons were also the only existences that understood ancient string magic. Although druid magic was an even more mysterious type of runic magic, mysterious knowledge was often shared. Moreover, since Brando said so, he must have some hidden meaning.
If he still didn't understand, he would be a real fool.
"Auiseaamrs." Brando almost finished the incantation word by word. "Have you heard of the Seed of Life?" He raised his head and asked: "You should understand the meaning of this sentence."
The three Druids' faces suddenly changed. The Seed of Life that Brando spoke of was the seed of the Elven Tree. The Tree Herders often transformed this thing into the Golden Demon Tree, but the Sacred Tree of Life was the only tree they found that could effectively transform the Dark Forest. It was just that the Tree of Life was originally rare, and other than artificial cultivation, they could only look for the ancient heritage in the ruins.
After all, it was an ancient heritage.
They all heard that the passage that Brando recited was a transformation incantation. The core rune was' Eaam ', which represented the earth. It was very likely that it was the' Language of Nature 'of the ancient Druid magic. Legend said that it could directly purify the Dark Forest completely and save it from the erosion of magic. However, that kind of magic had not existed in this world for more than a thousand years, if not for some records in the ancient books. At most, the three of them could only hear that the incantation had some connection with Druid magic.
Andellu looked at Brando with a complicated expression: "Language of Nature?"
Brando nodded.
"My Lord, you know this spell? Are you a Druid? "
Brando shook his head. In fact, he was not unfamiliar with this thing, because the incantation was written on the ancient slate. In the later stages of the game, almost every player more or less knew something about it. However, just knowing it was not enough to use it, because the only thing that supported this incantation was the ancient slate. The Wizard War later broke out because of this reason. Simply put, this was a gimmick. It looked beautiful, but it was actually worthless.
However, it was enough to attract the attention of these Druids.
As expected, Andellu frowned: "What does that mean?"
"Simply put, I am also interested in the Dark Forest," Brando replied. "However, the stronger the Order, the stronger the resistance from the Chaos. Therefore, fighting alone is not the best way to solve the problem." As he spoke, he picked up a candle from the table. "Druids are used to solving problems from the perspective of the world and the laws of nature, but the Goddess of the Forest has actually pointed out another path for you."
"What path?" Andellu asked.
Brando carefully used scissors to cut off a forked part of the candle's wick and then lit it. He looked up and said: "That is to borrow the power of others." He replied: "Since the Year of Chaos, other than the limited traditional model of the 'Church – Pioneer Knight', the civilization has rarely expanded the scope of the Guarded Lands. However, because of the lack of territory and the erosion of magic, the wars between the civilizations have increased day by day — "
He paused and changed the topic: "However, I intend to open up a new model to end all of this. Even if it's just a trial. "The young lord smiled slightly." However, I am very confident. I just don't know if you are interested. "
Andellu lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "My lord, you can just say it."
"What I mean is," Brando said as he picked up the envelope on the table. He tilted the candle slightly and let the hot wax drip on the envelope. "To transform Erouine into a country full of vitality and constantly expanding outwards —"
The three Druids gasped in unison. Andellu had expected Brando's ambition, but he did not expect the young man's ambition to be so great. His goal was not as simple as being a vassal, but to change this ancient kingdom. They could even hear that his tone was far more than that.
The expansion of Erouine.
This young man wanted to build an empire with his own hands.
Ambition was a good thing for some people, but it caused Andellu to feel deeply uneasy. He looked at Brando vigilantly. "Expansion will bring bloodshed and war, which is contrary to our beliefs," he said in a low voice to avoid making the other party unhappy. "Therefore, my lord, if you want to use this to entice us to join you, I'm afraid you are wrong."
"War is inevitable." Brando put down the candle and took off the Ring of the Wind Empress. "However, for me, war is a means to protect myself. Because I'm afraid you have misunderstood the meaning of expansion — "
"Wait, you mean?" Andellu interrupted him in disbelief.
Brando nodded seriously. "The expansion I'm talking about is the Barbarian Lands." He pressed the Ring of the Wind Empress on the wax and then raised it: "Using the power of the country, we will open up new territories in the Barbarian Lands."
