The dark moon was torn apart in the sky.
At first, its speed was extremely slow to the naked eye. People saw the moon slowly split into several larger fragments in mid-air, and they slowly separated, and then dense cracks appeared on the entire surface of the moon, which suddenly expanded. Come, it was broken into countless smaller fragments, these fragments broke free from the gravitational force between each other, and flew out in all directions.
Such a picture scroll was extremely quiet in the eyes of everyone at first, but gradually began to get faster. After a few minutes, the scattered fragments began to pass through the clouds, pulling out long golden red flame tails.
There was a shower of steel in the sky. At first, it was dotted with light spots, and then the advancing golden lines were slowly drawn on the sky, densely dense, lighting up the sky.
The sky curtain began to become brighter gradually, as if the clouds were burning, and the light of meteorite fragments reflected half of the sky curtain into a golden red like apocalypse.
The pieces of golden lines were reflected in Brando's dark brown eyes.
With the golden red sky and the meteorite falling from the sky through the clouds, he recalled when he had seen such a scene. It was in the dream of fighting against Bai, and the scenery in front of him was in the second dream. What I saw was almost exactly the same.
A voice rang in his head.
The world is at dusk, the gods are at dusk—
There was dead silence in the Rose Garden, and the central capital of the entire empire and even the Banker area were shrouded in a bright light of destruction. How can people react to such a scene
Before the end, who can protect themselves
At this time, the larger fragments have begun to enter the clouds, and the thick clouds suddenly disappeared, like a giant wolf composed of light and shadow rushing out of the clouds. They screamed long in the air, their voices are long and sad, as if they were A funeral song chanted for the end of a world.
There was another rumbling roar in the air, like a resonance of some kind of magical power, the air vibrated, and waves of air fell from the air and impacted on the ground. With a few crisp sounds, the ground of the settled White Rose Garden cracked a few long holes, and these cracks extended to the square outside.
The crowd suddenly swayed, and it was not until this time that most of the nobles reacted, screaming and looking for cover in private.
The men pushed and threw the women, the ladies and the daughters were crying, the anger and the sound of maintaining order filled each other, and the scene was in chaos.
It was like a big drama being staged in front of Brando, but at this moment he was strangely calm, like the last battle in the Alkhash Mountains. When the dead rushed into the battlefield like a tide, his heart was There is no fear at all.
Only the idea of how to get rid of the enemy in front of you.
Black Tea once said that he was a natural warrior, and Bai Jia-senpai felt sorry for it when she left. She told him that if he had more resources and relied on a stronger empire or guild, his achievements might not be more than that.
But Brando didn't care.
His sword will only come out of things he recognizes.
He turned his head, pointed to the chaotic scene and said to everyone present: "Metisa, you go to maintain order and find a way to persuade the Flame Family Knights to open the tunnels of the royal family and let everyone escape in."
"Charles, you go find the Prime Minister of Niedervan and the Holy See of Vala. Only they can control these people with authority."
"Mordface, Andriguez, you go to protect Duke Huaye's family, as well as the nobleman and the young man who came with us."
Charles, who had always liked to make fun of his lord, also fell silent for a while, apparently understanding the priorities, the four nodded and left separately.
Only Akane and the three Valkyries were left by Brando. Veronica and Lady Sidney went to the noble side. As empires, they couldn't stay aside from the death of the Silver Queen.
Princess Gloria watched this scene and shook her head slightly: "It's useless to hide there, you must leave here."
Brando fell silent and replied, "I won't leave her to go anywhere."
"It won't help if you stay."
"But if I don't stay, I will regret it."
Princess Gloria fixedly looked at him: "I will accompany you—"
"No," Brando shook his head: "I'll go alone."
"You can't be willful, do you know why the Queen of Silver gave you that ring?"
"It's just a ring, no one takes it seriously." Brando shook his head indifferently. Even if the old prime minister and Vala agreed, what could it prove? It is impossible for the nobles of the empire to let one Eruin rule them. They can't change the will of the entire empire. So how many people's interests are intertwined
Princess Gloria didn't argue with him, only replied: "It's not just a ring, you are an adult, Brando, you are no longer a big boy."
"It's because I'm an adult."
"Since you are an adult, you should understand that those things cannot be done."
"There is nothing impossible to do," Brando hated such aristocratic arguments: "There are only things that should be done and things that should not be done."
"For example, to die?"
"This is not to die, Aunt Jenny," Brando replied, "I don't want to argue with you, I hope you can do me a favor—"
"In that case, you have to listen to me." Princess Gloria replied without stepping back.
"No, there's nothing to talk about," Brando shook his head. "Aunt Jenny, I don't care if Roman is the baby girl sixty years ago, but I at least know that she was raised by you. I believe The relationship between you and Roman, Roman she once told me in person that she wanted to become a businessman just to buy you a lot of good things after making money—"
Having said that, he suddenly stopped.
That kind of innocent girl, perhaps the richest people she has ever met in Buche, are the merchants who travel to and from the villages.
He still remembers how he and Roman were bargaining with those guys for a little bit of things. The merchant lady's bag was filled with all kinds of weird treasures, all of which he and her saved little by little. Bought it.
Being able to become a businessman and earn money is her biggest dream.
Brando felt that something got stuck in his throat so that he couldn't even say the latter, so he just looked at the latter and said nothing.
The look on Princess Gloria's face finally softened.
"What do you want me to help you with?"
"You have to tell me what happened to Romain first." Brando replied.
"A will of the Twilight Dragon is sealed in her body. If this seal is lifted, the Twilight Dragon is likely to occupy her body and descend into this world." Princess Gloria replied word by word. .
The screams of the crowd seemed to have gone for a moment, and the surrounding voices became illusory. Brando said nothing, and the silence between the two was audible.
But the latter did not say a word, not because of shock. In fact, he had already had a faint guess in his heart, but when the guess was confirmed, he still felt suffocated and breathless.
"Back then, the Silver Queen, Darus, and Dragon Queen Gwendolyn found a baby girl on the final battlefield. That baby girl is today's Roman, but when the three people discovered the baby girl, the baby girl was dormant. The state of the Silver Queen unintentionally awakened the latter, and only then discovered that the will of the Twilight Dragon was sealed in Roman's body."
Gloria continued: "At that time, the dragon of twilight was about to come, but realized that she had broken the silver queen, and decided to sacrifice herself to re-seal the baby girl."
"Can the seal that can seal the will of the Twilight Dragon's will be repaired so easily? What's more, the sacrifice of life is not something that the Queen of that era can understand, right?" Brando suddenly asked.
"Naturally, someone told her that this person is the Dragon Queen. In fact, I have always suspected that the Silver Queen broke the seal and was seduced by her. However, the Silver Queen is dead. I am afraid that only the Dragon Queen can answer this puzzle. ."
"And then." Brando continued to ask coldly.
"But the Dragon Queen only took half of the Silver Queen's soul to complete this seal, and used her kind and pure personality to suppress the dark side of Roman's character. According to the Dragon Queen's claim, she did this to save the Silver Queen's life. ."
"Just a few minutes ago, she personally killed the Silver Queen." Brando interrupted her disdainfully.
Princess Gloria also nodded: "So this statement of her is not worthy of being trusted, the Dragon Queen may have another attempt, but we don't know."
"The kind side of the Silver Queen is used to suppress the dark side of Roman's character. Does this dark side belong to the Twilight Dragon?"
Princess Gloria shook her head: "Roman is Roman, and the Dragon of Twilight is the Dragon of Twilight. Although Roman is sealed with the will of the Dragon of Twilight, she herself is a true first-generation god with a complete soul. Before the Twilight Dragon was released, because of the influence of the Twilight Dragon's will, the dark side of her character was much larger than that of ordinary people."
"But I never felt it," Brando replied, "In my memory, Romain don't talk about negative emotions. She hasn't even cried."
"Generally speaking, this is because of the kindness of the princess, and also because I sealed Roman's negative emotions with the witch's secret method, so she can't cry, but can't cry."
Noting Brando’s gaze, Princess Gloria smiled bitterly: “It’s not what you think. I also have my own difficulties. When your grandfather handed Roman to me, she was still sleeping in the crystal. She was originally the silver queen. The meaning is to let him kill Roman, but Roman has half of Her Majesty’s soul, so your grandfather ultimately failed to make it."
"Later I took Roman and left the empire and came to live in seclusion near Braggs. But after all, the spells of mortals are not as good as Odin and the Witch Queen. Roman also slept in the crystal for forty years, that is, until you were born only one year later. Later, the first seal on the crystal began to dissipate. After that, she also regained consciousness and began to grow like a normal girl, and the seal also began to become unstable at that time. When he was young, Roman was often affected by dark emotions. Control, I am afraid that the Dragon of Twilight will be released because of this, and I have to seal her negative emotions."
"When did that happen?"
"It happened when Roman was seven or eight."
"Impossible," Brando shook his head: "I was already in Butch at that time. Why didn't I know that the Roman I remembered was no different from now."
Having said this, he suddenly stopped and looked at the princess of the kingdom in front of him.
Gloria showed a helpless expression: "The memories of you, Freya, and Roman have all been modified by me. Because of certain things, I left you a copy. After you leave here, you will understand that. Everything that happened at the time."
"I hope you didn't lie to me this time, Aunt Jenny."
"Brando..." Princess Gloria showed a sad expression.
"I'm sorry," Brando sighed. "I understand your feelings for me, Roman and Freya, Aunt Jenny, but this time it was beyond my expectation."
"I understand," Princess Gloria shook her head slightly: "Go to Roman, I probably understand what you are thinking."
"Before that, I need you to do me a favor, Aunt Jenny."
"you say."
"The ring that you and I talked about-the supreme ring, if it really has such a great authority, then I hope you can help persuade the old prime minister and the Great Holy See, and let them agree to open the royal teleportation array. Send Metis and them away."
"Of course it has." Gloria moved her lips, trying to tell him that the ring represents more than he thought. The greatest treasure left by the King of Flames is not the vast territory and supreme power of the empire.
Any successor with royal blood flowing in his body can be the emperor of the empire, but not everyone can become the King of Flames.
But in the end, she still didn't say it. She understood that some things couldn't be forced.
"That ring," Brando continued: "Give it back to the prince's eldest son after it's used up. I don't intend to be involved in the throne or to be involved in this whirlpool dispute, let alone the eldest son of the emperor is mine. friend."
"Your Highness is lucky to have a friend like you, but this ring can't reach him." A voice came in, Brando turned his head and found that it was Ms. Veronica.
The latter came back from where he left, with a worried expression: "This matter does not need to go through the prime minister to open the royal remote teleportation array, I can agree, but I think the two adults will not object even if they know it. Not only Metis and the others, but also the large number of nobles still stranded in the inner city, as well as the envoys of various countries, must also be sent away, otherwise the trouble will be big."
Brando remembered something, and said to the latter: "Then trouble the Commander of the Legion, and say hello to Princess Magdal for me. Thank you very much for her help."
Veronica nodded, then glanced at him silently: "You have to be careful too."
