The Dragon of Darkness was the mortal enemy of the Four Saints in the Holy War, especially the Flame King Gretel, who had a grudge against the Dragon of Darkness. Although Brando was also puzzled as to why Babasha would say that, he could not agree this time. Otherwise, he would accidentally stand on the opposite side of the entire world of light. "The Dragon of Darkness, Odin? I know that you witches see him as the guide of a dark destiny, but it has nothing to do with me. "
He looked at Babasha, but saw that the old witch was still kneeling on the ground in fear and trepidation, her whole body trembling. Brando was slightly startled and realized that he had gone too far. He had forgotten that the people of this world had great respect for the gods and the existence of great power. Even if they stood on the opposite side, they would not casually disrespect them verbally.
As a player, he could not accept it all, and the remaining half was still due to Brando's influence. Therefore, when these names were mentioned, they naturally showed an expression of equality.
This kind of equality was nothing to him, but in the eyes of The Shire and Babasha, it was a great disrespect. But the situation was a little different now. The old witch Babasha was in a deep panic, and The Shire had not come out of his previous worship. So this kind of natural behavior left more doubts in their hearts.
Brando also realized this, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, think what you will. As long as you don't interfere with me, you are not allowed to go anywhere until the sun rises. "
Babasha pressed her forehead against the ground, and as expected, she did not dare to move.
Brando gestured to The Shire who was in a daze, telling him that there was a secret door under the table and for him to open it. The young man moved the table suspiciously, lifted the carpet and pressed it with his hand. Sure enough, there was only a thin layer under it. The Shire was a little used to his lord's foresight at this time, and could only conclude that there were still some things in this world that could not be found with 'human power'.
He found the handle on the side and pulled it open, revealing a dark and steep staircase below.
"My lord, are we going in now?" He asked.
"Of course, what else do you want?"
"Eh, isn't there any other place in Fortress Riedon that I can level up?"
"Do you think magic items are cabbages that you can pick up whenever you want?"
"Cabbage?"
"I mean, Tao Wu, you know that thing, right?" Brando slapped his forehead and realized that he had misspoken again. Wohnde was still a little different from the world he was familiar with.
"Of course, but after hearing it from you, my Lord, it's different. Da, Bai, Cai, what a poetic and picturesque word. Presumably, its root must have come from the ancient language. Look at the pronunciation, it's similar. "
Brando couldn't help but laugh. However, there were at least two other places in Fortress Riedon that had hidden side quests and benefits. The underground church and the famous Tower of Wind, but these two places had a level restriction similar to that of a Door God. Moreover, it wasn't an NPC like Babasha, so he gave up after much consideration.
His biggest dream now was to temper his strength while collecting all the treasures he knew of. However, he didn't have much time left. His current goal was to become a survivor, not a statistic. Once the first War of the Black Rose ended, before Erouine's civil war, Brando would have plenty of time to carry out his plan. With experience and the best equipment, becoming one of the strongest in Wohnde wasn't impossible.
Brendel never believed that a strong person did not need to rely on equipment. As a player, the combination of attributes, equipment, and skills was essential to him.
He picked up a box and swept all the elemental crystals into his pouch: 12 wind elemental crystals, one fire elemental crystal, and only two or three blue water elemental crystals. These elemental crystals were also known as elemental crystals. They were the condensation of free elements in the material world. They were supposed to be irregular prismatic crystals, but because they needed to be manually polished into pointed prismatic equivalents, each of them contained an energy of 1.
After looting Babasha's collection, the two acted like the most competent robbers. They also took Babasha's candle and walked into the tunnel. A witch's candle was a magic item. It could teleport people to places where light could reach. This was a secret that only witches knew. Of course, Brando also knew about it.
The secret tunnel in Castle Urson was about 1.5 kilometers long. Most of it was narrow and could only fit one person. In a slightly wider area, there were three poisonous spiders the size of humans. Wizards often did this kind of thing, raising servant beasts to act as their guards. Babasha obviously put them here to please the Duke of Grinoires. But these things could only scare ordinary people. For Brando, three of them were worth 9 EXP.
The other end of the tunnel led to the cellar of Castle Urson behind a row of wine racks. But since it was an escape tunnel, it was naturally not sealed. Brando felt around the wall and found the mechanism. It was used to move the racks to one side.
When the two came out of the tunnel, they both let out a long sigh. No matter how good the ventilation was, the smell of dust accumulated in the narrow tunnel was not something that ordinary people could tolerate. After walking for a long time, The Shire almost thought that his lungs were covered with a thick layer of dust.
As soon as he came out of the tunnel, he immediately took out a silver pocket watch and glanced at it. "Fifteen minutes has passed, my Lord."
"It's okay."
"Hmm?"
"I originally reserved time to go to the Duke's treasury, but it seems that I have to give up. But most of the nobles' collections in the villas are just some art and jewelry. It's not much use. "
"My Lord is really decisive. Not everyone can stay calm in front of treasure."
"No, you misunderstood The Shire. I mean, just take two pieces on the way. I'll tell you which ones are authentic later. "
"… …"
The Shire was surprised by his Lord's greed. But he did not know that Brando's banditry did not originate from his personality. It was a subconscious behavior as a player.
The two of them walked up the stairs and stopped talking at the same time. Brando extinguished the candle and handed it to the squire behind him. He put his hand on the doorknob of the cellar and activated his power. The doorknob cracked.
He immediately pushed the door open. The two guards looked at him in shock, but they only saw that Brando's other hand had already pulled out a long sword. The sword drew a beautiful silver arc forward. The two guards were only halfway through the action of pulling out their swords when the sword in their hands was knocked out together with the scabbard.
They were shocked and realized that they did not come with good intentions. They wanted to escape, but how could Brando let them go? Without hesitation, he chased after them and ended their lives.
This was Brando's first time killing someone.
He did not think about anything when he killed the two guards. His mind was not even blank. He felt that he was calmer than usual at that moment. Because if the other party did not die, he and The Shire would be in a situation of certain death. This was a battle of life and death. He did not even think about what would happen to the Roman or Freya. His survival instinct alone was enough to make him do it.
But after killing, Brando felt a huge sense of suffocation. He tried to calm his breathing and stood there motionlessly with the long sword in his hand. He let the blood drip down the blade and fall on the stone floor. There was no reaction at all.
At that moment, he thought of a lot of things. A lot of miscellaneous things drilled into his mind, but it made his mind appear to be in a state of vacuum. He almost lost his mind for a moment. At first, he wanted to find an excuse, but then he just wanted to comfort himself and make himself feel a little more at ease.
"My Lord?" The Shire saw his abnormality.
Brando raised his hand to indicate that it was okay. He wanted to drag the two corpses into the cellar and hide them, but now he was not in the mood. He could do not look at them. It was not that he was afraid of killing people, but he could not accept the impact for a while.
But what made him feel a little relieved was that there was no experience in killing people. He did not know why he felt comforted by this. He should be in urgent need of experience, but Brando thought that if he could get experience by killing people, he might not be able to accept it.
He thought for a while and felt that he was still a human. He could not accept the fact that he used the lives of his own kind for profit.
"Now we will split up." Brando took a deep breath and replied.
"Just tell me what to do."
"I will kill my way up to find trouble with the Earl. You will sound the alarm from the other side." Brando said as he counted from one to one hundred. When he counted to thirty, he finally calmed down.
"Sound the alarm?"
"Did you forget what I told you? We have to attack from the front. The bigger the commotion, the better."
"Then we will go back the way we came from and retreat through the secret passage?"
"No, we have to kill our way out."
The Shire was shocked: "Why?"
"The guest rooms are at the top of the castle. We only have time to escape from the top of the tower. But if the White-Mane army still brings archers, you and I will have to pray for Lady Martha's protection."
The Shire nodded and turned to leave. He did not ask where the alarm was. If he did not even know how to scratch his tongue, he did not need to be a squire. A Knight and their squires should have basic combat skills.
But Brando took the initiative to stop him: "Wait, why are you in such a hurry?"
"What's wrong, My Lord? Do you have any other orders? "
"Of course, go up the stairs from here and turn left. There is a corridor at the end of the stairs. If you see something that is easy to carry and sell, don't hesitate to take it. "
"… …"
The Shire stared at him for a while and finally said: "I take back what I said before, My Lord."
"What sentence?"
"The first sentence, 'Not everyone can remain unmoved in front of treasures'. It should be changed to 'Indeed, no one can remain unmoved in front of treasures'. "
"No, you don't understand. Look at The Shire. In the future, I will have to take care of the little Roman and her aunt. This is the responsibility of a man. It is not easy to support a family. I have my own difficulties. "
"You should leave those words to the Duke of Grinoires. My Lord, don't worry, I have studied appraisal in Buga. I will help you pick out the most valuable items. "
Brando was stunned for a moment and then laughed evilly.
