Chapter 457 (1/2)
”... this is probably the case. In order to avoid suspicion, I can't leave the ghost place of Tianqiong palace from tomorrow until the formal trial!”
In the garden restaurant in the summer twilight courtyard, Brandon, basking in the sun, said in a very lazy tone: ”a month... Exactly 28 days, you must be able to produce enough evidence to convince Victor Hughes.”
”Otherwise... In order to maintain the stability of the former cabinet and the house of Lords, he will have to take the most suspected master Lusaka as a scapegoat!”
”Yes.”
Some enchanted black haired wizards just snorted and answered.
The result did not come as he had expected - as they had guessed at the beginning, even though Brandon had returned to gloven, there were still fears that he would use the prestige of the battle of the broken boundary mountain to confront connord.
They don't believe that Brandon will succeed. Even on the contrary, anyone with eyes knows that Brandon has no chance at present... Connor has been canonized as Prince of Saxony for more than five years. Since he served as the commander of duanjieshan fortress three years ago, no less than 10000 people from two military regiments have pledged their loyalty to him to the death.
This is not a temporary conscription in the principality, but a elite heavy infantry regiment of the sakran Empire stationed in duanjie mountain for several years!
Power, seniority, age, title... Brandon is negative in each item. It doesn't look like he can succeed.
But Brandon is the Dragon Rider, Connor is not; Brandon has the loyalty of a dragon, but Conrad doesn't.
The dragon is the most powerful ”weapon” of the de sallion family to frighten the principalities and resist the invasion of demons. It is also a symbol of identity.
Mirasis is the biggest threat to him. The empire can never bear the power seizing rebellion of the prince of a ”Dragon Rider”. If Brandon's character is considered again
”Don't talk about these disappointments. I heard you went to chann's house?”
Languid Brandon suddenly opened his mouth, and the corners of his mouth were full of curiosity: ”what's the matter, have you got anything?”
”No, I didn't even see the count's face, but I guess he did it on purpose.” with a sneer of self mockery, Loren shrugged: ”there's nothing except an old high curse to send me.”
Brandon's face didn't have a bit of an unexpected expression: ”that's for sure... Siscott's death is related to the reputation of the chann family. If they find out anything and don't try to do it directly, you'll be generous to them.”
They've done it... Lauren pulled corners of the his mouth, but didn't say it.
”Wait, which one is the higher curse?” Brandon's red pupil lit up suddenly.
The black haired wizard frowned slightly. I don't know why he was so excited. He handed the scroll: ”it seems to be 'spiritual horizon', a spell that can be used for reconnaissance and search. Is there a problem?”
”Spiritual horizon?!”
Brandon sat up in surprise and took a breath of air-conditioning: ”how can the Chans who shut the door be so generous?!”
”The value of the higher spell is really immeasurable, but... It's not so surprising?”
Loren's expression was stiff and he didn't know what to do.
”You don't know?! oh... That's right. You can only learn spells and swordsmanship, and it's normal not to know the history of the chann family.” Brandon flattened his mouth and tilted his head:
”Short version and full version, want to hear that?”
”Please make it easy to understand.” the angry Loren rolled his eyes: ”otherwise I may not understand what you're talking about!”
”Alas... If you are unhappy, why are you angry?” Brandon shook his head as if he had no choice, and spoke before the dark haired wizard raised the scroll and hit him:
”All in all! There have been many famous spellcasters and alchemists in the chann family in all dynasties, and almost every generation has made great achievements, but none can match this one in your hand... Don't hit me!”
”No one can match...” Lauren frowned: ”this high-level magic spell?”
