Brando and Vahina arrived at a dark canyon. A majestic stone gate stood in the middle of the canyon. There was a hundred-meter-tall stone statue erected on both sides of the gate. It was the long-bearded King of Winter, Keldon, and the axe-wielding Curd. They belonged to Cruz's God of War.
Both of them stood at the foot of the statues. They were not even as tall as the statues' big toes, and felt insignificant. Vahina looked up and saw a row of cuneiform words on the stone gate:
[Created by Derruha for the Final Battle. O 'stars in the sky, may you still shine upon the land a thousand years later —]
The words were written in an ancient language that was mostly lost after the War of the Holy Saints. Thousands of years had passed since the Azure Knight broke open the sky and brought his spear to the earth in the second era. However, when they saw this stone tablet today, they could vaguely feel the weight of the history that had been passed down in the same vein.
"The stars will still shine upon the land a thousand years later. You may rest in peace." Brando said softly as he looked at the stone tablet.
Vahina looked at him blankly and did not say a word.
The silence in the canyon was a little mysterious.
The first thing he confirmed was that this was the entrance to Valhalla. This ruin was once a fortress built to fight against the Twilight Dragon, and it was supposed to be the place of the final battle. But like most of the other holy lands, Valhalla was destroyed in that terrible war, and only bits and pieces of history and legends were left to trace its location.
Next was to contact the Druids according to their agreement. Brando had to use the Space Gem given to him by the Druids to transfer Sifrid over. She was the key to opening the gate.
He walked under the giant door and used his gloves to sweep away a layer of dust on the ground to reveal the rock underneath. Then, he took out Veronica's sword and drew a circle on the rock. He placed the four cyan gems on the circle's nodes.
Next, he had to perfect the magic formation.
Vahina found a rock and sat down. She could hear a deafening roar coming from the other side of the valley, and the entire valley seemed to be shaking slightly. She hugged her knees in fear:
"Hey, wh-what are you doing?"
"Getting down to business. If Andesha doesn't come here, don't disturb me even if the sky falls down. "Brendel replied." That's right, I want you to keep a lookout for me.
"Eh?" Vahina raised her eyebrows in surprise. This Erouine country bumpkin actually dared to order her around?
"You're not willing? Forget it then. Anyway, that woman is in a towering rage right now. She will definitely torture you before killing you. "Brando carefully engraved the formation while describing it in a casual tone.
"Oh, right. I heard that they like to cut off people's limbs and plant plants from hell on the cuts. Those plants are bloodthirsty. Have you seen them before? "
The young lady was so scared that her face turned pale. She pointed at Brando while trembling. "You, you, how could you say such terrible things!"
"Am I not telling the truth?"
Vahina's rose-like lips moved as if she was tongue-tied. It took a lot of effort for her to squeeze out a stubborn reply, "I-I'm just returning a favor since you saved my life —"
She then looked at the other side of the canyon in a fit of pique.
Brendel was secretly amused. He had figured out that this young lady's temper was quite easy to deal with. She was indeed a tsundere. He pursed his lips and continued to complete the formation. Spatial magic was one of the most complicated formations in the world. Brando had repeatedly discussed the feasibility of this plan with the Great Druid Elder before he carried it out.
In the end, they decided to use a runic formation to determine the coordinates. The ones who actually cast the spell were the Great Druids of the Withering Tree Council. The problem with this method was the coordinates of the spell and the conduction of the spell across tens of kilometers.
The first problem was not difficult to solve. Brando himself knew alchemy, so drawing a runic formation was not a big problem. He memorized the runic formation scroll given to him by the Great Druid Elder and did not even bring a sample of the runic formation with him.
Green fragmented agate was used to conduct magic. This type of high-grade crystal was produced in the Mountain of Quelled Storms and had a rare resonance attribute. This attribute was actually a low-grade spatial phenomenon, and was used by wizards as a medium to conduct magic in many situations.
However, no one could guarantee the success of a long-distance spell that was tens of kilometers long because the plan itself carried a certain degree of risk. The Druids were prepared to either succeed or die trying. They seemed to have placed all their hopes on this plan.
Of course, Brando knew that the Druids had actually transferred a group of young and old Druids to the Withering Tree when the Calamity of Wolves began. This was to be the seed and inheritance left behind in case the resistance failed. That was why he pretended that he did not see it.
However, Brando knew that this plan was not as dangerous as the Druids thought. In the game, players had also succeeded in long-distance spell transmission, and it was not just once. There were many successful examples in the later battles.
What's more, the highest number of Fragmented Agates a player could use was six. The lowest number of Fragmented Agates used was one. In fact, an expert on the forum deduced that four Fragmented Agates was enough to guarantee a 97% success rate.
The Druids provided a total of twelve fragmented agates, which was more than enough. However, Brando only planned to use four of them, and the rest would naturally fill his pockets.
Fragmented agates were extremely rare, and if he missed this opportunity, he might not be able to take advantage of it in the future.
He set up the formation and pointed at the center of the formation with the tip of his sword. "In the name of the storm and time, I beseech the Lord between the Third and Seventh Stars to let the mysterious power pass through the night sky — In the name of magic, Dallas Tyr."
The young man's voice was so loud that it echoed in the valley.
"Dallas Tyr …"
"Tyr …"
Vahina was shocked. She turned around and saw the formation under Brando's sword suddenly emitting a misty green light. The green light flowed like liquid and filled every line of the runic formation.
"What kind of magic is this? Country bumpkin, you actually asked for help from the Dragon of Time and Storm, Dallas Tyr? That's a superior dragon, how could you cast such a high-level spell? "
"It's a spatial spell, but I'm not the one who cast it. It's just a coordinate formation." Brando did not intend to hide anything this time. He looked up and saw three or four green lines streaking across the sky. Behind the clouds, the edge of the huge gear in the sky seemed to be turning.
It was a sign that the Laws were responding to magic.
"Spatial spell? But you're asking for help from the Dragon of Time and Storm? Spatial spell … Spatial spell … "Vahina suddenly could not remember what level of authorization one would need for spatial spells. She did not understand such a high-level domain at all.
"All spatial spells require authorization from the Dragon of Time and Storm. Don't you know that?" Brando turned around and glanced at her.
"Of course I know, I'm just asking!" Vahina's face turned red.
"Oh?"
Vahina's face turned even redder. She angrily said, "So why is that?"
"Mistress, has no one ever told you that you have a bad temper?" Brando shook his head and sighed, "Time and space are one, it's just that they exist in different dimensions."
What he was talking about was, in fact, a theory of the Silver School. The founder of the theory was William Pist, a master of spatial magic. It was said that no one had studied the void behind the world of Vaunte more intensely than he had.
But just as Brando finished speaking, an old voice suddenly exclaimed, "Eh, young man, where did you hear that from?"
Brando and Vahina were startled and turned around at the same time. But they could only see that the place where the voice came from was empty. Brando frowned and suddenly looked in that direction.
"Are you from the Silver Alliance? Why don't you show yourself? "
The old voice let out a series of hearty laughter. "Hah, young man, your reaction is fast. But your provocation won't work on an old man like me. "
Even though he said that, the old man still dispelled his invisibility spell and revealed himself.
Brando narrowed his eyes when he saw the old man in a silver robe. William Pist, one of the twelve Silver leaders of the Buga Magi. Some said he was three hundred years old, while others said he was four hundred years old. His legend was not only among the Buga Magi, but also among the commoners.
There was even a poet named Colgo who wrote a book called "The Story of a Great Magus, Sponsored by Colgo and Published by Bista".
As for Bista, he was a rather famous merchant near Ampere Seale. According to the locals, merchants like him were always interested in doing strange things. Of course, it was because of this merchant's whimsy that the story of William Pist spread among the commoners.
But when Brando looked at the old man, he couldn't help but think maliciously. Did he go to Colgo to collect copyright fees or other related fees?
When William saw Brando's eyes, he knew that the old man had recognized him. The old man couldn't help but show some surprise in his eyes. "Eh, you recognize me?"
"Many people know you, sir. One of the Twelve Silver Circles, master of Kanaki, respected leader of the Magi?" Brando replied.
"I didn't know I had so many titles," the old man smiled. "But they've only heard of my name. Not many can recognize me. Let me think, you also know about the integration of space and time — "
William narrowed his eyes. This theory of the Silver School was created by him, but it was still immature and didn't receive much recognition. Even a few of his old friends didn't necessarily agree with his theory.
He didn't expect to meet a young man who could casually say it out loud, and with a confident look on his face. This made him more and more interested.
"You, you —" At this time, Faena finally reacted and realized who the person in front of her was. She looked at William in disbelief and was speechless for a moment.
"It seems like this little girl also recognizes this old bag of bones. What an honor."
Brando couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. What is this old man doing here? He knew that the Magi from Buga were here, but he didn't know that the one who came was a leader of the Magi. This person's strength was probably on par with Andesha.
"Don't worry," William seemed to have seen through his worries and smiled. "I'm just curious."
"Curious?" (To be continued, if you want to know more, please go to www.qidian.com. Support the author, support the original reading!)
