"What are you laughing at?" Brando was puzzled by the other party's attitude.
The Frost Knight King's eyes burned brighter, and a subtle smile appeared on his pale face. "You can rest assured that I did not intend to take back the inheritance of the Dark Dragon. Because you have passed the test perfectly. "
"Passed perfectly?"
"Although the strength you showed in the previous battle was terrible, at least your judgment is extraordinary. This shows that you have a fighting mind, and the mind is more important than anything else. Not to mention, you also have the potential to become a Planeswalker. Although you're only an apprentice, I can see that you've already found your own path. Becoming a powerhouse is only a matter of time for you. "
"As for my question, you have answered it. Young man, you have made a mistake. What Odin is looking for is not the Dark Dragon, but someone who can bear this responsibility. And my duty is to show you the future of Wohnde. "
"Vaunte's future is what you call a never-ending war? Are you trying to say that the Crystal Clusters are the hidden enemies of our world, and they may have even served the Twilight Dragon? "
"I don't know. This is Odin's intention. But at least I know that the growth of our world's civilization is not smooth sailing. The evil cultists, the Black Forest, and the monsters are everywhere invading the borders of the civilized world. This war has never ended. "
"I know this even if you don't say it. No one will wait for death. The enemies of this world are not only the Crystal Clusters. Even without the Crystal Clusters, we still have to go through the magic tide. The twelve moons have never shone on Wohnde with good intentions. We still have the Calamity of Wolves and the evil cultists to deal with. "
Seibers smiled and did not explain further. "Since you have thought it through, please accept the gift from the ancient bloodline." He pointed at his pale chest that was covered in patterns. Under his festering skin, a heart that was burning with raging flames was beating. "The second inheritance of the Dark Dragon, the precious knowledge from the Crystal Dragon, Scorch, is right here. Raise your sword and stab me."
"… This." Brando looked at him and was stunned.
"Why are you in a daze? I'm not going to wait for death." Seibers raised the Frost Blade in his hand. "The treasure is with me. If you want to use it, use your sword to take it."
"F * ck."
…
The ice cave was rather quiet. Someone had already finished telling the story of what had happened earlier. In his hand, the bright blade of Frost Chant Cynna was placed horizontally, reflecting the ice that had accumulated over tens of thousands of years on top of the cave, forming a cold pond.
Brendel stared at his left hand. From an outsider's point of view, it was covered with a layer of dragon scales – the Blessing of the Dragon God. But under the armor, the skin on the back of his hand was scorched, and the ugly charred wounds were spread out in a radial pattern. In the center of these twisted wounds, there was a black gem that glowed, and within the gem was a flame as bright as amber.
That was the Dark Dragon's second legacy.
The Ash Sword Saint. Aloz did not speak for a long time, as if she was still thinking about the war described by Seibers. Everyone was thinking about why the Miirna Lord appeared here and only pulled Count Tónigel into the Extreme Plains. Brando certainly did not mention the Dark Dragon's inheritance, but the 'future' that Seibers showed him was enough to attract the attention of others.
A person's voice sounded.
"How can you be sure that what he showed you is real?" The one who spoke was Prince Lenarette Aurelius. The expression on the prince's face was indifferent to trust or distrust. It only made people believe that he only spoke out of an instinctive desire to control the topic.
"He never wanted us to believe that it was real, Your Highness. He just showed it to us. As for whether we believe it or not, it doesn't hurt him at all. After all, that's Seibers. I've heard legends about this person from my father since I was very young. The king of the Frost Knight. Such a character really doesn't need to play tricks with us … Not to mention that he was already dead long before the end of the War of the Holy Saints. " Veronica denied Lenarette's question. Even the prince of Cruz did not dare to question his mentor's judgment. The female legion commander looked calm and put away her longsword. When her voice echoed in the cold and sealed underground, she looked at Brando who was sitting on a rock covered with ice and snow and joked, "— Don't you feel cold?"
It was not that Brando did not feel cold, but he was tired to death. "Madam Legion Commander, I don't have the energy to joke." He rolled his eyes.
"It's definitely tiring to fight with such an existence, Mr. Brando." Shido hurriedly comforted him.
"Yes, it's indeed something to be proud of for not being defeated. But I want to hear your opinion, Brando. Why did Seibers pull you into the Extreme Plains? I don't think he just wants to show you a picture of war. Or rather, why did he do it? "
"This question is too difficult, can you change it?" "I'm afraid not." Brando wanted to brush it off, but the lady's gaze made him understand. He was afraid that he had to find a reasonable reason today, or he would not be able to convince her.
The commander of Azure Skies had already proven her shrewdness back in the Loop of Trade Winds. She wasn't asking her this question because she had lost her ability to discern the situation.
"Okay …"
"I think he wants to warn us."
"Warn us?"
"What is the greatest enemy of civilization? It's the cultists, the Dark Forest, the monsters, the world beyond the fog. All the creatures who believe in Martha are fighting a long war with the monsters. This war has not started, and no one knows when it will end. This story seems to be written like this, but has anyone ever thought about why it is like this?"
"That's something that the scholars have to explore. Our scholars have unearthed many ancient tablets and documents. One day, we will figure out how to end this war and stop the Dusk from eroding civilization." "Our scholars are still studying the documents of the Miirnas, but the Miirnas themselves must know more than we do, don't they? After the Dusk Dragon was defeated by the Knight of the Azure Skies, they know better than us what happened to the world. "Brando asked. Veronica could only nod in silence.
"But why did he want to warn us? History tells us that they are our enemies. We were the ones who defeated the Dark Dragon and ended the rule of the Miirnas." Veronica was puzzled.
"Perhaps this is the reason why Seibers rushed here. When the War of the Holy Saints was at its most crucial moment, he left the Dark Dragon. If this is not the most serious betrayal, then there must be something else."
This secret seemed to be to preserve the legacy of the Dark Dragon, but that was not what Brando wanted to say. Otherwise, even his teacher Mephisto would personally kidnap him and bring him back to Cruz's Golden Flame Temple to receive the highest standard of interrogation in front of the Flame King Gretel's Holy Elephant.
Be it humans or elves, although they were at war with each other, no one had forgotten the War of the Holy Saints that ended seven centuries ago. The terror of the Dark Dragon was like a dark cloud that shrouded history for a thousand years. Perhaps the Saint-ausol could forgive it, but that did not mean that everyone could.
Otherwise, why would the Wind Elves and Fanzin people monitor the border of the Great Glacier day after day?
Fortunately, Brando already had an idea in his mind. "In terms of history of fighting against monsters, the Miirnas have a longer history than us. The Dusk Dragon was killed by the Knight of the Azure Skies, so they must know many secrets that we do not know. Don't forget, this is Milos' Breath, the final resting place of the Frost Giant King. "
"In the legends, he fought with the wolves and finally died here. But is there only the remains of the Giant's Father here? I'm afraid not. The skeletons we saw earlier and the mercury-like enemy can already explain many things. "
"You're saying that Seibers left Odin at the most critical time of the War of the Holy Saints. It is likely to be related to the war between civilization and the Dusk. The tyrant had a premonition that his death was imminent, so he sent his capable men to arrange his funeral?"
Brando raised his head and found that the one who said this was Prince Lenarette Aurelius. He could not help but feel overjoyed. The credibility of his words was much higher than his own. He thought that he would have to guide Miss Scholar to judge for herself, but he did not expect the eldest son of Cruz to be much sharper than he thought.
This was simply an unexpected surprise. If the other party was not a prince but a princess of the empire, he would have hugged the other party and kissed her fiercely.
"The Dark Dragon, is he so kind?" The Ash Sword Saint replied faintly.
"This is possible, Sir Sword Saint. Academia has long inferred that Odin may have predicted his own demise. In fact, the escape of the Miirnas and witches began long before the fall of the empire. The Miirnas and witches are loyal to the Dark Dragon. If not for this, they would never abandon the tyrant. This is actually not unreasonable. The tyrannical rule of the Miirnas has already sowed the root of the empire's destruction. The justice of history cannot be resisted. With Odin's wisdom, I'm afraid he has already seen through their inevitable end- "Shido explained softly.
"Hmph, Odin is the Dark Dragon, but he also believes in Martha. Monsters and cultists are not only our enemies." Prince Lenarette was obviously very dissatisfied with Mephisto's questioning of him.
"Then what kind of secret is hidden here?" Veronica frowned.
"I think this is what Seibers wants to warn us. I suspect that there may be something sealed here. Otherwise, Arreck would have rushed here. They have already gotten the 'Heart of the Dragon', they don't need to play hide-and-seek with us here." After Brando finished this sentence, his face suddenly changed and he stood up straight. He just wanted to find a plausible excuse, but now he suddenly felt that it might not be impossible for it to be the truth.
As he said, why did Arreck and the others want to enter Milos' Breath so badly? They were not a group of ordinary people. They were cultists, the enemies that Seibers mentioned.
Moreover, the inheritance of the Dark Dragon could be placed anywhere. It did not have to come to this desolate place. The more Brando thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. His mind was once again filled with his strange dream. Why did the Miirnas guard this place day after day?
"Oh no, didn't we always feel that something is watching us from behind?" He turned around and said to everyone with a serious face.
"What is it?" Aloz squinted her golden eyes and finally spoke. She was not interested in Seibers, but she was very curious about this matter.
But Brando did not answer her directly. Instead, he said, "I think I know what Arreck and the others want to do."
"Brando, have you guessed something?" Veronica asked.
Brando nodded, "You guys are good. If I'm not wrong, All For One is about to awaken that thing."
"That thing?"
Yes, that thing.
The hidden BOSS that was said to have never appeared in the Frost Forest.
