Chapter 424 makes sense, it seems I am really discerning!
After Brand learned about the cause and effect, as well as the negative impact it might have on the safety of the three noble descendants if the news was exposed.
Jonas inquired about Brand's location, and then quickly arranged for the nearby Imperial Legion to prepare to secretly pick up the undead captured by Brand.
After ending the conversation and putting away the empty screen, Brand put on his mask and hood again.
Stop the magic input and lift the hidden barrier.
Outside the barrier, Catherine, who was guarding the captives with the knight golem, quickly gave him a questioning look.
Brand immediately said:
"We have been contacted. Someone will take over soon. Then we can go back and rest." "
Yes."
After hearing Brand's words, Catherine responded in a low tone. There was a sound.
Seeing that Catherine was in a bad mood, Brand leaned close to Catherine, stretched out his right hand, and rubbed Catherine's head through the hood.
At the same time, he also comforted:
"Isn't it just a broken shield? A shield, a consumable item that can withstand attacks, must be replaced sooner or later.
And judging from the quality of the previous shield, it was originally used for Excessive equipment, I will prepare better ones for you later!"
After receiving Brand's comfort, Catherine's mood improved a lot.
However, she still said with some worry:
"Master, I feel that with my current growth rate, it may be difficult to successfully resist the attack of the great master when the duel comes.
The man in red robe is only an intermediate undead mage at most.
When the great master was an intermediate great knight, as the heir of a top knight family,
he definitely had more powerful attack methods than the necromancer's spells!
What's more, the great master is now very likely to be more than just an intermediate great knight. !"
After hearing Catherine's worries, Brand gently rubbed Catherine's head.
While bringing the masked face closer, he said firmly:
"Then let's find a solution together!"
Staring into Catherine's eyes, Brand continued:
"We are all knights with more talent and wisdom than the lord. And the mage.
He is just a small stone in front of us. We always have to cross this stone!" After
a slight pause, Brand continued:
"After that, there will be pioneering wars and territory construction. , exploring the sea, and trading with elves.
I hope that the various achievements attached to these things can gradually be passed down in my Brand's name.
The Holland family should be just the embellishment behind my name. This is something I will do sooner or later! "
After listening to Brand's words, Catherine gradually calmed down.
Looking into Brand's eyes, who was very close, she argued in a gentle and confident tone:
"Young Master's fame has gradually surpassed that of the Holander family. For many of your recent achievements, people will think of you first. You, and then you will gradually think of the Holland family!"
Hearing this, Brand smiled and said:
"I'm not very clear about this, but that means we are doing a good job, right?
Things are going as we expected. In the future, we can make it more ingrained.
If one day the Holland family achieves something, people will immediately think, 'That's the Holland family where Brand belongs'. Okay!"
Catherine smiled and said:
"If this is really the case, the eldest master should be stunned.
However, I am the young master's maid, and the library members are hired by the young master with money.
Therefore, the reason why things develop so smoothly, That's all the work of the young master!"
Hearing what Catherine said, Brand, who had always been modest, couldn't help but nodded in agreement:
"That makes sense, it seems I really have a discerning eye!"
...
After chatting with Catherine for a while.
There was sudden movement not far away, close to Mana City.
Under the observation of the Eye of Insight, a team of more than ten knights was rapidly approaching in their direction.
Soon, they appeared in the naked eye's field of vision.
——More than a dozen men and women dressed as businessmen!
After taking a look at Brand and Catherine's outfits, as well as the many "bright brown men" behind them.
The leader came over and asked in a low voice:
"Mr. Brand?"
Brand nodded, and then said in a normal tone:
"Uncle Jonas sent you here, right?"
Hearing Brand's question After the voice, the man smiled and said:
"I am Auro Bazel. According to the instructions of Director Jonas, we will secretly take away these undead and keep them in custody before the descendants of several nobles are rescued."
Brand He responded:
"Thank you for your hard work. Not all of these are undead. Some of them should be just peripheral members who have practiced the undead cultivation method. Now they are also tied up by me with light spells." While saying this, Brand
also He controlled the knight golem to move the "bright browns" over one by one.
Let the knight golem untie the chains wrapped around the heads of these prisoners, and when the consciousness of these prisoners gradually returns.
Brand used a hoarse tone to introduce to Oro and others their general strength.
——Three undead magisters, one undead knight, and more than a dozen minions.
After introducing them all, I seemed to have thought of something.
Brand was a little curious and asked the knight golem to bring over the undead magician who destroyed Catherine's shield.
——This is an undead man with white hair and pale face who looks like a middle-aged man.
After taking a few brief glances and waiting for the undead's eyes to slowly focus, Brand said curiously:
"What is your specific strength? A junior undead mage? Or an intermediate one?"
Looking at Brand in front of him, he was dressed in black. Dressed in a robe and mask, with a youthful aura, and a hoarse voice...
The necromancer, who was still a little confused in his thinking, suddenly recalled the terrifying experience before!
Then, as if he was greatly stimulated, he struggled to stay away from Brand.
At the same time, he continued to use fearful and hoarse tones, vaguely speaking words such as devil and evil god.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Brand couldn't help but frown slightly.
Then, under Catherine's control, the knight golem on the side slapped him in the face.
Perhaps due to excessive force, the consciousness of the red-robed undead mage began to fade again.
At this time, he realized that Auro and others were looking at him with strange expressions.
Brand explained seriously:
"This guy is probably playing tricks and trying to hide his strength!"
After hearing Brand's words, Oro suggested:
"Why don't we give these disobedient guys a try first? How about wearing special shackles.
Maintaining these light spells all the time will be a burden for sir, isn't it?"
Brand nodded and said,
"You can do whatever you want."
Next, under the gazes of Brand and Catherine, Auro and others simply took apart the "bright browns" one by one.
Then he put on shackles specially prepared for the undead.
Compared with Brand's light spell, the effect of these special shackles is obviously much milder.
After resting for a while, these guys' consciousness completely recovered and they were soon able to get up and walk.
Without exception,
the first thing these people did after regaining their ability to move was to look at him shivering with fear on their faces.
In this regard, Brand couldn't help but be a little speechless.
——Can’t the undead, who have harmed countless living beings in the Farnes Continent, act more majestic and domineering?
Or is it because they were suppressed too hard that they have now lost their former glory?
When Brand was mourning for the undead clan in Farnes Continent, Oro came over and said to him with some awe:
"Sir, we just tested and found that the undead you just asked about is an intermediate undead mage. .
In addition, there is a junior undead knight and two junior undead magisters."
After nodding to express that he understood, Brand spoke again:
"Then the next thing will be left to you, Are we going to take the first step?"
Auro said respectfully:
"Sir, please take it easy!"
After waving goodbye, Brand took Catherine to a deserted place and took off the disguise of the black robe and mask.
Immediately afterwards, Brand, who was wearing luxurious clothes, walked happily towards Mana City not far away.
And Catherine, dressed as a noble maid, also followed closely with a smile...
