Chapter 44: Warriors and Cowards
Brandon, who was standing next to the warrior and was frowning and looking out at the Black Forest in the distance, was taken aback, he turned around and said in astonishment: "You want to enter the Black Forest, now?" ”
"Didn't you say that before? Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Joshua didn't care, he straightened his helmet, and his voice came out, a little dull: "I'm going to go into the Black Forest to investigate, it's best to find the location of the monster that caused the blizzard - don't look for it now, that monster must be able to use the power of the space-time gate to trigger such a huge blizzard...... It's right in that place. ”
Following the warrior's gaze, in the distance, the clouds that had been broken by the opening of the space-time gate to create a pillar of magic light still did not close, and the golden sunlight pierced through this big hole, like a sharp sword straight into the earth, =.
These are the most obvious coordinates, and in that direction, you absolutely can't do it.
"You're crazy! It hasn't been long since the space-time gate opened, and there must be countless desolate gods and demonic beasts there, and you used to be sent to death! ”
Brandon couldn't understand this thought, he knew Joshua's belligerent nature, and he knew that he really wanted to destroy Chaos, but that must be guaranteed to be able to fight! In the face of an army of 200,000 wild beasts and Aragami, he still wants to take the initiative to attack - this is no longer belligerent, but completely insane!
"I don't know what you're talking about...... But anyway, let's hold the fortress and wait for reinforcements from the imperial capital, I informed the imperial capital of the abnormal beast tide at the end of the last beast tide, and it won't take a few days for the extremely strong people of the imperial capital to arrive. ”
Holding her forehead with one hand, Verdani knew very well that the two warriors in front of her were hiding something from her, and they must know a lot less important information than themselves, but she still couldn't help but speak: "Although this vision looks very terrifying, as long as the three of us join forces, we should be able to hold on for a few days." ”
"No, you're all wrong."
After tidying up the armor and clothing of his whole body, Joshua took out a model of an ordinary giant sword from his waist, and with the brilliance of magic power, this big sword was held tightly in his hand, and the warrior shook his helmet, making a sound of metal rubbing, and he said in a dull voice: "It is to attack as soon as possible now, you don't know the time and space gate, and the time is too late." ”
The experience of his past life and the memories of his ancestors, inherited from the Azure Orb, had taught Joshua how bad the current situation was.
Aragami's newborn form is indeed very weak, just like the few mobs he killed in the charge during the previous attack on the aid game, he easily killed several Aragami without feeling any hindrance - but in fact, Aragami is a kind of parasitic monster, they have been parasitic in the other world from the beginning, and they have arrived in that world in the Void Battleship.
In the inheritance memory, Joshua knew that a creature like Aragami could get the ability of a monster by parasitic monsters - just without the ability of monsters, it would be troublesome enough to rely on the growth of power accumulated over time, not to mention this kind of parasitic species, if they were not killed while they were weak, and the space-time channel would be opened a few more times to send thousands of them, it would be a big trouble.
Now, 200,000 demonic beasts are eroded by chaos, which is the best accommodation object for the Aragami - the beasts are boiling, evil things are raging, the gate of time and space is about to open, and the power of chaos is ready to move, if you don't go now, there will be no more chances.
"Listen, Virdany, Brandon, I said I was here for a purpose."
Joshua raised his head, the wind and snow hit the armor, it was cold to the bone, he looked around at the soldiers who were busy preparing for defense, and the city wall covered with a layer of frost covered by snow, and said in a cold voice: "I came to help repel the beast tide, just to solve the Aragami, no matter how much you say, it's useless, this is the purpose of my coming here - I brought fifty silver knights, they help defend the city is more than enough, and I, I, want to kill those monsters and the dragon, it is naturally a good thing that you are willing to come over to help, if you don't want to, just defend the city, I don't want the knights I brought with me to die in this place. ”
After speaking, Joshua held a big sword made of steel in one hand and Hotaru in the other, and his body burned with a crimson fighting spirit, and with a loud bang, the blizzard stopped, the wind counterattacked, and the ice and snow on the city wall were blown away by the continuous gushing fighting qi in an instant, revealing the gray-white solid rock at the bottom.
The warrior in black iron armor rose into the air, and at this time, the mahogany rune box given by the Emperor was behind his armor, in the pocket of his chest.
Even in his previous life, he didn't use expensive things like dragon slaying stones to slay dragons.
Behind the helmet, the corners of Joshua's mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes were full of fiery battle intent.
But with just a bunch of experience points, there's nothing to worry about.
Without giving Brandon and Verdani a chance to dissuade them, the warrior flew straight towards the Black Forest in the distance, where the sun had fallen.
……
Silent.
Although there was a slight disturbance on the city wall due to Joshua's departure, it didn't take long for it to resume its original busyness, and as the dragon cart caravan brought in the latest supplies, these soldiers continued to carry boxes of the latest alchemy products onto the fort, ready to attack.
"The gate of time and space has been opened, and the beast tide has been strengthened by the magic of chaos, and it must be more fierce than before."
Suddenly, the blonde swordsman, who was originally silent, spoke: "Dani, you are a war mage, although you can do small techniques that ordinary mages will know, but no matter how you look at it, your personal magic and glorious power are better at large-scale warfare and defending cities, and not good at breaking through......"
Sensing a hint of something wrong, the countess turned her head and looked at her partner suspiciously: "Brandon, you ......"
"Joshua is right, if you don't solve the space-time gate now, it won't be long before it officially opens, and the infinite monsters behind it will pour in, you and I may be fine, but the fortress will definitely not be able to hold it...... In fact, if there had been no Joshua last time, it would have been lost. ”
Interrupting Verdani's words, Brand looked indifferent: "I have hidden a lot of things from you, but believe me, it is all for your good, since your ancestors have chosen to get out of this matter, I will never let you re-enter this dangerous world." ”
"What the hell are you going to do, Brandon!"
Not caring about the purple-haired female mage's angry rebuke, the blonde swordsman tightly grasped the double blades on his waist with both hands, the blade of rank iron, and the blade of sequence, the two holy weapons, used a steady stream of order power, as the blood of the chaos keeper boiled in his body, and the eyes that were originally as red as blood also appeared slowly swirling pale cyan vortex.
He turned his head sideways, staring at Verdany's somewhat panicked face - he had traveled all the way from the imperial capital to the Northlands to protect the woman in front of him...... Just as Joshua came here to eradicate Chaos, protecting Verdani was Brandon's purpose.
Perhaps, keeping her safe was the most important thing, and if something happened to the female mage, the blonde swordsman had no idea what would become of him, and he couldn't imagine life without her......
But would it really be nice to stay with Verdani like this?
In the distance, in his field of vision, the chaotic aura rose up a huge column of smoke, reaching the clouds, and then falling on every land with the blizzard, this disgusting aura caused the blades of order to snap again and again, even in the scabbard with a violent reaction.
That's his job.
Right...... I, Brandon, am also a warrior!
The knot in his heart was untied, and the corners of the blonde-haired swordsman's mouth curled slightly, and then he smiled indifferently: "Everyone has their own responsibilities, just like Dani, you can't give up your responsibilities as a lord, and would rather die than give up your territory, and now is also the time for me to fulfill my responsibilities." ”
Respect belongs to the warrior who has fulfilled his duty, and even if he dies, he will be buried with honor, and the warrior who has abandoned his duty is just a coward who can be spurned by anyone.
With open arms, Brandon embraced Verdane, and he looked into the countess's worried and panicked eyes, and then kissed him deeply, and after a moment, he let go of his embrace, and the other party was dazed, and did not know how to persuade.
The blonde-haired swordsman whispered to his lover, "Don't worry, I will be the strongest swordsman in the world in the future, and I will never die here." ”
"Your husband is not a coward...... So, I'm going to help Joshua. ”
