Chapter 596 – Convincing Brando
Chapter 596 Convincing Brando
The old witch used to keep a close eye on the severed finger tethered behind her braid, and hardly ever talked to them about it.
However, the old hag didn’t say what the broken finger was for, so it was not good for the crowd to ask.
Saul said to the butler again at this time, “Is Brando still out there?”
The butler nodded, “I asked him to wait a little in front of the door, and he has been waiting for …… now.”
The butler glanced at the watch in his arms, “It’s been seventeen hours of waiting.”
It couldn’t be helped, he couldn’t take it upon himself to invite an outsider to the island until Saul returned, especially an outsider who had laid hands on Tatsuo.
“But I do have Mr. Marsh for company.”
“Marsh probably doesn’t like him either.” Saul thought to himself, “Luckily, a dozen hours or so is just the time for a wizard to meditate deeply.”
Saul got up, “Since Mr. Brando stepped in to help when the Pure Spirit Wizard Tower was in danger, it’s not good for us to keep holding on to each other’s previous misunderstandings. It just so happens that I also want to cooperate with Wizard Brando now, and if the cooperation goes well, I can let him enter my consciousness platform once again.”
After a few contacts, Saul had already discovered that Brando appeared to take the physical route on the outside, but he was actually a pure spiritual power type sorcerer.
Perhaps he had lost his own body for whatever reason, and thus had been using mental power to manipulate other people’s bodies as his puppets.
At the same time, because a puppet’s magic reserves were inferior to a living sorcerer, Brando’s puppet would focus on physical-based attacks. As long as physical function damage was not taken into account, it might be able to exert an extremely powerful force.
And such Blandu, naturally, placed great importance on the enhancement of spiritual power.
Saul brought the old witch out of the wizard tower, and saw Brandu who was squatting on the side and Marsh studying how to grow mushrooms.
And Marsh seems to have completely forgotten that Brando once destroyed a piece of his mushroom forest, and was so excited that he was dancing around.
Saul walked over just in time to hear Marsh say, “…… This mushroom can also be eaten, it’s just that it’s a bit more difficult to digest, and sometimes it can gang up on you and fight in your stomach …… “
Saul: “……”
I don’t have any of these belligerent mushrooms in my meal, do I?
Brando had already noticed Saul coming over, only to say a few more words to Marsh before pretending he had only just seen Saul, propping himself up on his knees and standing up.
“Sorcerer Saul, you’re finally back.”
For the first time, Saul showed a normal smile to Brandu, “This time, my wizard tower was attacked, and I have to thank you for stepping in to help.”
A muffled voice immediately came from beneath Brandu’s helmet, “No need to thank you. In fact, I also wanted to clear up the misunderstanding with Sorcerer Saul and rebuild a friendly relationship, and asked you to teach me how to strengthen the space of consciousness before I took the initiative.”
This was a straightforward thing to say.
Sol smiled and raised his hand to point to the wizard tower behind him, “Do you want to go in and talk?”
Brando was still a bit wary, “No need, my flying beasts will get cranky if I leave them. If you don’t mind, let’s talk here.”
“That’s fine.” Saul directly talked to him outside about the offer of cooperation, “You helped me, but you also killed one of the Wind Demon’s subordinates, are you worried that you’ll be retaliated by the Wind Demon in the future?”
Brandu said calmly, “Wind Demon is the one with the smallest sphere of influence among the three Third Order, I just need to hide towards the sphere of influence of the Dream Maker or the Firefly Lord, she can’t do anything about me.”
“Moreover, compared to the possibility of me advancing to the Third Order, offending the Third Order is nothing.”
Sol nodded in understanding, then asked back, “Then …… do you dare to join me in fighting back?”
Brandu frowned slightly, counterattacking back could mean killing into the Wind Demon’s lair, which was completely different in nature from killing a Wind Demon’s subordinate outside. The danger was also heaven and earth.
Seeing Brandu somewhat hesitant, Sol added another yard, “If you help me this time, I will let you enter the consciousness space once.”
Brandu snapped his eyes up, stern as an eagle, “Three times.”
Saul shrugged, “It’s not that I don’t allow you to bargain, I’m just afraid that you won’t survive the second time.”
Saul didn’t lie, those eyes in his space of consciousness were not generous masters. Other than Saul and the existence attached to him, it was not a good thing for other people to frequently enter his consciousness platform.
He still remembered that when he was in Archaeust City, Kent had jumped directly into the starry sky in order to avoid him within the consciousness space.
The result was death and the disintegration of his soul a few seconds later.
And what was even more terrifying was that Kent’s corpse in the real world had also mutated.
The eyeballs coming out of his body almost alienated Agudu.
Saul sometimes worried that the stars would one day alienate him, too.
It was comforting to know that the Death Wizard’s diary never issued a death warning to the stars within his consciousness.
Saul could only hope that this was not due to the fact that the diary could not see through the movements of the stars either.
Brando had been observing Saul’s demeanor, and found that his casual tone was tinged with a sense of certainty, which made him more and more sure of his own suspicions.
“There’s definitely something even more terrifying than contamination inside this Saul. The death threat I felt in his consciousness space last time wasn’t an illusion. I may have even underestimated the danger level of his consciousness space.”
However, despite his fears, Brando was willing to take a risk for the sake of promotion.
Since Saul had already solemnly warned him, he might as well heed the advice and go there once and see how it went before deciding if he wanted to go there a second or third time.
Brando let out a breath that hit the dull helmet, “Phew, alright then, as you said, go once first.”
Sol raised one eyebrow, it seemed Brando hadn’t completely given up yet.
It didn’t matter though, if he took the initiative, Saul wouldn’t mind having more than one experiment of his own to test the danger level of the stars.
Stipulating the conditions, Brando took the initiative to ask, ”How are you going to fight back? Not to mention the fact that the other party is a Third Order, the densely-packed caves on the cliff where she is located will leave you helpless. You’re not even sure which cave you can find her in ……”
“I know.”
“What?”
“One of my patients once went to the Bluff to meet the Wind Demon and helped me locate her.” It was then that Saul noticed another suspicion, “By the way, the wind demon didn’t notice the little thing I hid on my friend at that time, it was something that suddenly happened later on that interrupted my surveillance.”
Saul half-closed his eyes, “Let’s not talk about what happened at that time, the fact that she didn’t notice my tracking in the first place is unusual enough in itself.”
Sol’s eyes widened, his tone vaguely agitated but certain, “Wind Demon she no longer has the strength of the third rank!”
Saul looked at Brandu with fervor in his eyes, “A Third Order that has lost its Third Order strength may not be as powerful as a powerful Second Order. Such a person, do you still dare not make an enemy of them?”
Brandu breathed a little sharply, he had always felt that he was quite crazy, but how did this young sorcerer in front of him seem to be even crazier than him?
Could it be that he was influenced by those stars in his space of consciousness?
