"But you can help me with something." Brando turned around and said to Faena. "Help?" Faena looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Analyze the runes on Amman's body and tell me the parts that are related to defense."
"Are you going to deal with Amman first?"
"Nonsense, of course I'll pick the weakest persimmon first." Brando stared at Amman's back and said. He had another choice, which was to take control of Valhalla's core while Andesha fought with Veronica and Mephisto. But he chose to stay because of two reasons.
The first was because of Scarlett. It was not a short distance from here to Valhalla's core, but Mephisto was obviously not Andesha's opponent. Leaving Veronica and Scarlett here was not a wise decision.
But the more important reason was that he found an opportunity. Andesha and Amman were Tree Herders and All For One. All For One's influence was deep in human society, and the Tree Herders were a bunch of lunatics. Brando did not wish for them to return to the civilized world and become his enemy.
The only way was to get rid of these two people here and let everything that had happened here be buried in the Black Forest forever, eliminating all future troubles.
That was why he tried to instigate William, but the Archmage of the Silver Alliance was too cautious and did not let him gain any advantage. But now, Mephisto's appearance gave him a second chance. Brando knew that Andesha's most troublesome aspect in battle was her Corrosive Domain, but the Ash Sword Saint was able to counter it.
In this way, Andesha's well-concealed weakness was exposed.
"Alright, I'll try," Faena replied: "But his level is too high, I can't guarantee that it'll work."
"Don't worry," Brando comforted her: "He's already an undead, the Holy Spell will reject his body and manifest itself. It's not as difficult as you think."
Faena nodded.
The Lady of Azure approached Amman and looked at him. "Priest Amman, it's not too late to turn back. I don't want to attack you because of our personal friendship in the Empire."
"Turn back?" Amman sneered. "Will the Holy Cathedral accept an undead as their priestess? Besides, you should have heard of the Resurrection of the Undead spell, right? Veronica, don't try to flatter me. You know that it's useless to me. "
Veronica was not surprised by Amman's answer. She just wanted to shake his mind, but the will of the undead was as cold as steel. It did not affect the fallen priest at all.
Without another word, she flicked the sword in her hand, and a string of green birds flew out from the sword. They flew in a beautiful arc towards Amman from both sides.
Amman pointed his finger. "Golden Flames, give me a shield." Several golden shields appeared and disappeared, each colliding with one of the green birds and causing sparks to fly in the air.
"Blessing of Flames." Faena said.
"This spell is an active defensive spell, but if the caster is unable to detect it, then it's useless. Continue." Brendel stared at the gap behind Amman's back as he spoke with Halran Gaia.
"There's also a Spirit Barrier. It's a passive defense."
"It only protects the front 180 degrees. What else?"
"Arcane Armor."
"Foresight Attack."
"That's a little troublesome. That's all?"
"I think … that's all."
Brendel nodded and lifted his cloak with one hand. At this moment, Amman was in the midst of a fierce battle with Veronica. He did not expect three people to be hiding less than ten feet away from him. With his abilities, it was impossible for someone to hide at this distance without him noticing, unless they were ten times stronger than him.
But then again, it didn't make much of a difference whether or not someone who was ten times stronger than him sensed his presence. Besides, Amman definitely wouldn't think that someone who was ten times stronger than him would sneak up on him.
There was no need for that.
The moment Brendel took off his cloak, the Foresight Attack on Veronica immediately alerted him, but he was too busy fighting with Veronica and did not have time to turn around. Moreover, the warning from the spell was not strong, which meant that the people who were hostile towards him were still some distance away.
Unfortunately, what Amman did not know was that Brando also knew how the Foresight Attack worked. He calmed his breathing from the start so that his killing intent was not that obvious. As a true veteran player of The Amber Sword, Brando had a wealth of experience. He was even more dangerous than the Mage Hunters.
The moment he appeared, Veronica saw him and Vahina behind him. The woman's eyes lit up. She was curious as to why he was here, and why did he not let her and Amman notice him at such a close distance?
But despite her doubts, the woman's expression was calm. She did not alert Amman at all. As a female general who had experienced hundreds of battles, being calm in the face of danger was the most basic quality of a general.
Brando was well aware of this, and he believed that the War Goddess of Cruz would not disappoint him. As expected, not only did Veronica not expose his presence, but she also immediately understood his tactic and took a step forward to attack.
"Oh, you also noticed that reinforcements are coming? But it's useless. That brat should still be far away. This little bit of time is more than enough for me to deal with you, Veronica. "Amman was still talking to himself.
"Priest Amman, did I not know that depravity can make people arrogant?" Veronica smiled faintly.
"Behind you, idiot!" At this moment, Andesha's shrill voice suddenly came from above.
Amman was startled, suddenly shocked. But at this moment, Brando had already made his move. The 'Arcane Armor' on Amman was a triggered full-body defense spell. It was also the most effective weapon a wizard could use against rogues. 'Arcane Armor' and 'Predictive Attack' was the common choice of all high-level mages in the early stages of the game. It was also the reason why the Nightingales complained to the heavens.
But it was only useful in the early stages of the game. The players' creativity was limitless, and a battle between a spear and a shield would never end with one side winning.
Brando did not directly stab Amman's back with his sword. He raised his right hand and chanted: "Oss!"
A Wind Bullet was shot out and hit Amman's back with a loud bang. The Arcane Armor on Amman's body reacted immediately. A layer of silver-white square-shaped light spots appeared on his back like fish scales. The layers of light deflected the Wind Bullet's lethality into nothingness.
But after the silver light appeared, it quickly weakened. The Arcane Armor could only block one attack in a short period of time. Brando knew this very well. He took the opportunity to deceive the Arcane Armor and immediately slashed at Amman.
After breaking through the Arcane Armor, Amman was no better than an ordinary person in front of Brando even though he had Elemental Power. This was the biggest weakness of priests and wizards — their physical strength was too weak! The Halran Gaia cut through Amman's back like cutting through tofu. The high priest screamed and fell forward. Veronica's sword pierced through his lower abdomen, and Amman howled in pain again.
But even so, the undead spirit did not suffer any fatal injuries. It took a step back, pulled out its sword, and turned around in a panic to escape.
"Eh, a zombie?" Brando was stunned: "Cut off his head, Miss Veronica."
"Don't even think about it!" Amman howled with hatred. He raised his hand, and the red bracelet on his hand exploded with a bang. A circle of white light suddenly enveloped him, and he disappeared. When he reappeared, he had fallen a hundred meters away with an arrow in his back.
"Tch." Brando spat and looked in the direction of the corpse. He put down the shale longbow in his hand and said: "Isn't it just a Anywhere Door? You think I can't tell where you're going?"
Veronica stood aside and looked at him with a smile: "Brando, where did you get your combat experience? In Cruz, even the best young Knight I've seen is not as good as you. "
"I'm a descendant of the Highland Knight. Fighting with mages is a talent that I inherited from my bones." Brando replied casually as he returned the Blue Firmament to Veronica: "Go deal with Andesha. I have a way to kill her."
Veronica looked at him curiously.
Brando shook off the blood on his sword and looked at Andesha who was not far away. Andesha had been paying attention to the battle. When she saw that Amman had failed, she could not help but stare at Brando with hatred.
However, at this moment, the woman had turned into a black dragon. She was entrenched on top of the building like a giant beast lurking in the shadows.
Even though she herself was the shadow.
The battle had become three against one, but Andesha did not show any signs of retreating. The leader of the Tree Herders had her own pride. She did not care about Brando and Veronica in the first place, and did not think that these two people who were much weaker than her could pose a threat to her.
"How do you plan to deal with that woman? She's not an ordinary person." Veronica looked at Brando and asked.
"I have my ways."
"Actually, I suggest that you bring Vahina and Scarlet away from here. Brando, Andesha is not that easy to deal with. I'll convince Mephistopheles to delay her —"
"What about you?" Brando turned to look at Veronica.
"Me? As a general of the Empire, dying in battle is not a disgrace. "Veronica smiled:" Vahina's identity is special, I have to protect her. "
"It's not that serious. Even though Andesha has turned into a dragon, she only has the physical defense and strength of a race that inherited the Golden Bloodline." Brando sheathed Halran Gaia and walked towards Andesha: "The true strength of the Dragon Race is the magic that flows through their bodies. You should know that the Silver Elves and Humans' knowledge of magic comes from the Dragon Race, right?"
Veronica nodded.
"That's why Andesha's strength has its weakness," Brando lowered his voice: "She's a Druid after all. As long as her connection with nature is cut off, she'll be useless."
"That won't be easy."
"But it's not like there's no way." Brando said: "If there's anything in this world that can cut off the connection between a region and nature, it would be the Golden Demonic Tree."
"The Golden Demonic Tree?"
Brando nodded. [Is Andesha digging her own grave by injecting the Blood of Gods into me?]
