The displeased tone of the person in the room made the Knight nervous. He turned to look at Brando.
"Tell him that it's because of the stable's gatekeeper. They changed the black beans to normal fodder without permission." Brando remained calm and simply mouthed the words to the other party. He knew that the pure-blooded Pinot horses were extremely delicate. Their materials were all specially made, and the beans in the fodder had to be black beans that were a specialty of the Suren Plateau. Otherwise, there would be problems.
The Knight hurriedly repeated his answer. This time, the people in the room believed him. In fact, he didn't suspect anything. After all, this was Ampere Seale. He really couldn't think of anyone who would dare to cause trouble under the nose of the Holy Cathedral. He pondered for a moment and replied, "This is really troublesome. Wait for me to come out."
The rustling sound of clothes being put on could be heard from the room. After a while, the captain of the Knight opened the door. He was about to put on a stern face and reprimand these careless Knights. These Knights were his direct subordinates. If they caused a problem, the Count would definitely blame it on him. This time, it was the Count's favorite horse that had a problem. This made him extremely unhappy. But before he could speak, Brando, Andrique, and Mephistopheles rushed into the room.
Enemy! At that moment, the captain of the Knight reacted. Rhonin had been famous in Yanbao for many years. He had been the captain of Yanbao's guards when he was very young. He was extremely experienced in fighting enemies and was used to carrying a sword at all times. As soon as Brando and the other two entered the room, the middle-aged Knight had already pulled out his sword.
Even Brando was shocked by Rhonin's reaction speed. This was really fast. If it was any other enemy, the captain of the Knight would probably have had time to warn them. Unfortunately, he was facing an even more abnormal opponent. Brando and the other two alone were three Gold Rankers. They would definitely have the advantage in a three-on-one battle. Andrique and Mephistopheles were even more superior in terms of race. Brando himself was needless to say. With his current strength, he could even fight against an opponent with Elemental Awakening.
At least, Devard the Eagle was proof.
As soon as Brando made his move, Rhonin was immediately frightened. The difference in swordsmanship was not at all on the same level. He subconsciously wanted to retreat and warn the other people in the manor, but at this moment, he heard a faint voice.
"Domain of Silence."
The Shire stood outside the house and pointed inside. A Domain of Silence that covered a radius of nearly twenty feet immediately spread out. All the sounds in the area seemed to be swallowed by an unknown existence in an instant. Sparks flew everywhere when the swords clashed, but not a single sound was made. The scene was really strange, but our Lord Knight was not in the mood to care about all this at the moment. As soon as the Domain of Silence was spread out, Brando attacked even more freely. In just three rounds, Rhonin had no choice but to abandon his sword and surrender.
In fact, it was not that the Knight wanted to abandon his sword, but if he didn't, he would probably lose his hand as well. In desperation, he had no choice but to throw away his sword and raise his hand.
Brando stopped his attacks and pointed his sword at the Knight's heart. He couldn't help but look at the Knight. The other party was quite particular about the nobleman's spirit. Only when he realized that no amount of effort could change the current situation did he throw away his sword and surrender. Compared to the Knight behind him, this Knight was much more moral.
In fact, this era was like this. You couldn't expect a Knight to do too much for the Lord. Unless it was a true retainer, very few people would be willing to make unnecessary sacrifices for the sake of their Lord. The current situation was exactly the same as when the nobles of Fortress Riedon fled. Brando didn't feel surprised at all.
"Who are you?" Rhonin raised his hand, but his eyes were still sharp as he stared at Brando and the others. He mouthed the question.
"None of your business." Brando replied: "Right now, I want to borrow the help of your Count to complete a task. I can guarantee that I won't harm his life, and I won't put him in any disadvantageous situation."
"The Count has no reason to agree to your request." Rhonin's expression was calm, but his mouth was full of sarcasm.
Brando shrugged his shoulders. Being called a thief made him feel a little ashamed, but he couldn't care less: "Right now, we are in control of the situation. This reason is sufficient. In fact, we don't need you to do anything. We just need you to stay here for a period of time." At this time, The Shire had already cast a soundproof spell, so he canceled the Silence spell.
Rhonin carefully looked at everyone present.
"I can't answer any of your questions on behalf of the Count." He replied.
"It doesn't matter. I just need you to help draw out the other Gold-ranked expert. Don't worry, we will only restrain him." Brando replied: "As far as I know, there are three people with the same strength as you in this manor. In addition to the Count's personal bodyguard, there is another person who lives on the second floor, right? With your status, you should be able to go to the second floor, right? "
Rhonin was silent. He fiercely glared at the Knight behind Brando. Of course, he knew who told the young man in front of him. But after thinking about it, he shook his head: "Forgive me, but I can't accept it. This goes against my beliefs."
When Brando heard this answer, he couldn't help but look at the other party in surprise. There were very few people who still held onto their beliefs in Erouine. Before meeting Kodan, Brando thought that there were only people like himself, the Princess, and the Valkyrie.
He shrugged his shoulders and withdrew his sword. He nodded to the other party: "Very well, I respect your choice."
Rhonin was slightly startled. He didn't think that these bandits who broke into the manor would be so easy to talk to. He couldn't help but frown as he stared at Brando: "What kind of trick are you trying to play? You should know that without my help, you won't be able to go to the second floor. From the looks of it, you don't want to attract the attention of those outside. "
"I'm determined to win. If it doesn't work, I'll just have to force my way in." Brando replied: "I'm confident that I can control the situation in a short time. But if it can be simpler, I don't want to cause trouble."
The middle-aged Knight pursed his lips and frowned. Obviously, Brando's words were exactly what he had guessed. He couldn't help but look deeply at Brando: "You should know the consequences of spilling blood in the area controlled by the Holy Cathedral. No thief in Ampere Seale has dared to do so in the past hundred years."
Brando stared back at the other party without backing down and replied calmly: "You've got two things wrong, sir. First, the person in front of you is not a thief. Second, I'm not afraid. "When he said this, he had already made up his mind. There were still two days before the meeting of the nobles. Brando knew very well how history had led to a path with no future. He would not allow history to repeat itself.
In The Amber Sword, he had seen Her Highness the Princess and the Valkyrie. He had fought side by side with many people, but this time, he was going to fight alone.
Ronin saw the burning determination in Brando's eyes and couldn't help but choke. He didn't know where these people came from, but they didn't look like ordinary bandits. He shook his head in his heart. How could they be bandits? Which bandits would dare to attack in Ampere Seale? He sighed: "You're not from the Lekin Family?"
The Lekin Family? Brando felt like he had heard of this noble family before, but it didn't matter. He was sure that it wasn't some big family like Erouine or Cruz. Since when did Count Yanbao have a grudge with this small family? And they seemed to be very nervous. Brando's thoughts turned quickly. He suddenly thought that Count Yanbao's unusual intervention in the meeting of the nobles in Ampere Seale might have something to do with this matter. But this had nothing to do with his purpose, so he quickly shook his head: "Of course not."
"You're from the Evil Cult?" Ronin's brows relaxed a little, but he still frowned deeply. He suddenly thought of the rumors of the Evil Cult controlling the nobles and couldn't help but ask. However, as soon as he said this, the Knight behind Brando suddenly changed his expression. In Wohnde, only one kind of people dared to ignore Martha's oath, and that was the Evil Cult. This meant that if Brando was from the Evil Cult, then wouldn't his promise to not kill him be a lie? Thinking of this, the Knight couldn't help but tremble a little.
But Brando shook his head and said: "No, we believe in Lady Martha just like you, my Lord. We see Dusk and Chaos as heresy."
Ronin raised his eyebrows. The Evil Cult would never say such things. He sighed in relief and thought for a moment: "Then as long as you swear in front of Lady Martha and do what you said before, I can consider helping you persuade the Count."
"You agree?"
The captain smiled bitterly. How could he not agree? He could see that Brendel's group was powerful, and the three Gold-rankers under the count were no match for them. Not to mention that he was already under their control. In fact, there were only two Gold-rankers under the count's command that he could use. If the other party really attacked, the manor would be a bloodbath. Whether it was considering his own life or his loyalty to the Count, this was the best choice for him.
Ronin sighed. Yanbao used to be one of the top nobles in Erouine. During the most glorious era of the family, they had two Elemental Awakenings. Their status was no less than the current Grand Duke Arreck. It was because of this strength that the Yanbao nobles could be independent of the other nobles in the kingdom and claim to be one. But he didn't expect that in just a hundred years, the Yanbao family would fall to such a state. It seemed that anyone could bully them, and they even had to consider relying on other Grand Dukes.
It was a disgrace.
The captain of the Knight thought of this and was about to nod in agreement. But at this moment, a loud explosion suddenly came from above everyone's heads. At that moment, it was as if the entire manor jumped. Brando's heart tightened. He couldn't help but look up at the ceiling. The explosion came from the second floor. Did something happen outside?
But he couldn't think of anything that could cause such an effect. Could it be that the little Roman was bold enough to test a fireball on the manor at this time?
But it didn't seem like a big fireball. It was more like someone had summoned a meteorite.
These messy thoughts flashed through Brando's mind. He turned around and saw that the corridor had become chaotic. Many of the Knight who had been sleeping opened the door and rushed out. Brando's expression changed. He immediately shouted, "Close the door!"
