Chapter 53 The Apocalypse
Lex turned around and immediately said with an expression of surprise: "Your Excellency, Mage Saruman, you are finally here!" What emerged from the shadows was a figure with white hair and a purple robe. An old man holding a high-level staff with flashing runes. There was a wise and calm look on his face. He calmly brushed past Lex and looked at Brandand, who was very nervous. "Old man, where are your two-headed dragon knights? Aren't they celebrating their victory? Why didn't they follow you?"
Brand's face turned extremely ugly, and he said unhappily: "Saruman, you are the leader of the court mages. The country had a coup, and the king was killed. Didn't you do anything?" Saruman immediately shook his hand casually. The staff of the staff shook the runes surrounding the staff: "Although I am a court mage, I am also Herrit, the magician of the Tower Forest. I cannot fight between countries. I don’t want to participate either.” “Hmph!” Brande snorted softly, but the hand holding the sword was sweating. It showed how nervous the old man was.
Saruman's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly smiled and said: "Old man, since you are poisoned, don't hold it back. It is very bad for your health." "What! You said he was poisoned!" Lex replied excitedly. Looking over his shoulder, he looked at Brande, who was beginning to sweat on his forehead, and raised the long sword in his hand, eager to try. Unexpectedly, Saruman swung his stick and opened the long sword. Looking at Lex who was glaring with anger, he smiled sarcastically: "Even if he is poisoned, you are not able to deal with a ten-star magic swordsman." Saruman Smiling sinisterly, Brande waved his hand to wipe his cold sweat, and suddenly smiled reluctantly: "Saruman, you have never dared to come over. Are you afraid of me? You are self-aware. In such a small palace, even if I win If I'm poisoned, I'll rush forward without my life. You'll lose an arm even if you don't die! You're waiting, waiting for me to be poisoned to death."
Saruman's face was expressionless, but his hands kept moving, and the staff immediately hit the floor hard. Three layers of shields shining with blue light protected Saruman's body. "Hmph, coward. That's why I hate you magicians." Brande laughed contemptuously. Throwing away the sword, he sat on the ground, leaning against the wall and panting: "Blame me for being greedy. I drank two bottles when I was happy. I wonder if Hu De'an, a narcissist, will scold me again?"
Looking at Brander who was sweating all over his body, Lex finally confirmed that he had been poisoned. He raised the long sword in his hand and said with a ferocious smile: "I actually have the honor to kill the Sky Knight. Haha, kill this old man who even my father was full of praise for!" "Stop." Saruman still stepped forward calmly. One step blocked Lex's path. Although his face was calm, his eyes were flashing with anger: "A generation of Sky Knight. He cannot die in your hands. He should have a more grand and heroic death!" Lex disagreed, his eyes full of anger. : "Saruman! I am the one who is about to become the king of Aixinzhe! How dare you speak to me like this!"
"What are you afraid of? Dear King Ai Xinzhe! If you want to face the hostility of the Helit Tower Forest, just come and kill me!" As soon as these words came out, Lex was completely stunned, and then he tried his best to Endured it. Forest of Herrit Tower. One of the three divisions. Unlike the other two mages who are mysterious and do not travel on the mainland, Tower Forest is very keen on the intersection of forces from all sides. Therefore, on the mainland, the status of Tower Forest is much greater than that of the other two mages. It's so big that even a kingdom has to think twice before facing the Tower Forest. The level of hostility should not be taken lightly.
"Old man, we have known each other for decades, although all of them are unpleasant memories. At least in the end, I can give you a better way to die." Saruman approached step by step. The head of the staff in his hand condensed into an ice sword, exuding bursts of frightening cold energy. Brander chuckled, his eyes had lost their luster and his face was extremely pale. He smiled weakly and said: "Thank you very much...please hurry up. I can't see anything now."
Saruman stood in front of Brand, looking at the dying old man, recalling in his mind the many battles and competitions between the two over the decades. From fights and bullying in childhood to suppression in old age. There are no good memories at all. He could only sigh deeply. He raised the staff in his hand and pointed it at Brander's forehead: "Do you have any last words?"
"Hehehe..." When Brande suddenly heard this sentence, he was so excited that tears fell from his blind eyes. He said with a choked tone: "Do me a favor, don't kill Hu De'an's only daughter." "I promise you." Lex frowned, anger rising. I wanted to deny it, but then I thought about it, what could a woman do? Sooner or later, he will return to himself and become a queen? I also endured this breath.
Seeing Brande closing his eyes peacefully and waiting to die. Saruman was about to take his life. Suddenly, an unparalleled and powerful repulsive force came from the left! Saruman was shocked to find that the ice sword on his staff immediately collapsed and disappeared!
Then, a huge force pushed Saruman away, and he hit the wall on the right as if flying, and slid to the floor. "Who is it! Come out!" Saruman jumped up immediately, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead just like Brande, and he stared very vigilantly looking for the target.
"Da da da" There was only a slight sound of footsteps, and an elegant man with black hair strolled in from outside. Look at his handsome face and calm face. It turned out to be the man who appeared in the Free Masons Guild not long ago and was called the mysterious warrior by the dragon Aldovic! Seeing the person coming, Saruman roared angrily, and six fireballs the size of a basin quickly condensed on his staff. The whole hall was illuminated with fire. But when he was about to attack this man, he waved his hand casually, and the repulsive force that had just appeared immediately rushed over again!
Something happened that shocked Saruman. The six fireballs on the staff actually disappeared as if they had been blown out! "What's going on!" Saruman was a little frightened and couldn't recover. Just when he was about to use magic again and build a magic structure. But he was even more shocked to find that he couldn't mobilize any magical elements at all! It's like the bridge of communication with the elements has been cut! And Lex was retreating quietly. He had no courage to fight an opponent that even the wizard Saruman could not defeat.
Brande was so angry that he seemed to have lost his hearing. About to return to the embrace of God. The man stood in front of Brande and squatted down slightly. I waved my hand on him, then smiled and whispered: "I have eliminated your poison. Whether you can survive depends on your own consciousness and whether you can see it with your own eyes."
A miracle happened, as if in a haze, Brander woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, it seemed as if countless stars were shining through his eyes. No more blindness in the eyes, no more deafness in the ears. The old Brander looked at the smiling man in front of him, and said in a trembling tone as if he had discovered a new world: "That... is real! Does it really exist?" Upon hearing this, the man smiled warmly, and he slowly He slowly helped Brande up and said: "Congratulations, you have become one of us. Our responsibilities and rights. Our sorrow and joy. Welcome back, my brothers and sisters."
Thumb thump! The staff in Saruman's hand fell to the ground. He looked frightened but happy and said: "I remember, I remember! The legendary warrior! A power that should not exist!" The man smiled and turned his head to look at Saruman: "We have many names, The legendary warrior, the Knight of the Apocalypse, the Apocalypse, and the Destroyer.”
Saruman stepped forward with excitement, knelt on the ground on one knee, and said with tears in his eyes: "The nemesis of the mage, the destroyer of the elements. The blade of the world. My God! I can see him in his old age. The legendary hero..." The man smiled slightly, said nothing, looked at Brande and nodded. Brand understood, turned around and said to Saruman: "Goodbye, Saruman. Brand has died just now. I hope you can arrange a funeral for me. Thank you..." After that, under the man's While smiling, the two of them gradually disappeared into thin air. It seems that there is no trace of existence at all...
Lex, who was in a daze, walked out indifferently and glanced at Saruman who was kneeling on the ground with a complicated face. The two of them remained silent at the same time. Everyone has a tacit understanding, this is a secret, a secret that can never be told.
