6. The Sorrow of the Omniscient and Almighty (II)
The conference room in Theramore was silent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Watching Ironforge Layla leave in a hurry under the escort of the guards, the expressions of the remaining envoys also changed a little, the old Fording's eyes were relieved with a hint of complexity, while Princess Kalia closed her eyes, and from the hands she clenched on her clothes, it could be seen that she was in pain now.
When Dick said that he had a way to get the entire civilized world to support the Northern Expedition, Kalia sensed that something was wrong in his tone, and as a mature ruler, Kalia knew that this kind of package ticket was not so easy to fight.
For example, even with her relationship with Dick, the Paladin even saved her life more than once, but after mixing the kingdom, domination, and prestige, she still had to acquiesce to Sir Moyns quietly weakening Dick's authority, the garrison of the Northern Fortress had changed 2 times since the end of the Battle of Quicksand, and the Paladin officers of Silver Dawn were getting lower and lower in the Theramore army, these were all things that happened right under her nose.
She and Dick were definitely destined for their lives, but unfortunately, it was politics, and the best she could do when thinking about things from the perspective of Lordaeron's future queen was to let Dick die if there was a conflict one day and Dick was defeated.
This is true of both her and Dick, not to mention the other forces.
To put it mildly, it is not an exaggeration that even Tyrande, who had also been saved by Dick, would have the idea of expulsion when Dick's actions affected the internal stability of the most loose form of government, and this is evidenced by the fact that after the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the First Expeditionary Force was the farthest away from the valley of Mount Hyjal, and was the first to evacuate.
When you step into this circle, your hands don't want to be white.
And what Dick is doing now is precisely to provoke this tolerance, whether it is Dalene or Magni, they will not willingly use their strength to support an operation far away in the world, but Dick forced them to do so, it is conceivable that after this incident, Dick's status in the hearts of these rulers will fall.
He was clearly using the prestige and character he had accumulated over the years, as well as his transcendent position in the civilized world in the future, to help Lordaeron and the Northern Expeditionary Army through the current difficulties.
No wonder he was so attentive to Anduin's promotion ceremony this time, no wonder he submitted an application to revoke the title of Earl of the North a few days ago, and even to hand over the command of Silver Dawn.
He even thoughtfully paved the way for Princess Kalia, after this time, he probably planned to draw a line with Lordaeron, maybe from today onwards, he would never hear the name of the Knight of the Dawn again, he would be completely forgotten by the angry monarchs, and even attacked, and finally ruined.
Kalia had seen many such tragic heroes, and she never thought that Dick would one day take this path, which also made Princess Kalia firm in her heart.
But for now, Dick's "show" continued, his staff tapping on the ground with a regular clatter, and then came to the side of Hardulon Mingyi, the envoy of Quel'Thalas, the Ranger Lord's face was a little ugly, and as Dick's former comrade-in-arms, he felt that he no longer knew what to use to treat Dick.
But Prince Kael'thas had his words before he left, and in the end, Haduron could only look at Dick with an expressionless face, and before he could speak, Dick raised his hand and interrupted Haduron to say something,
"Haduron, we used to kill the enemy together on the battlefield, so don't say more about those polite words, go and contact Kael'thas, I have news about Sindra, if he still knows what that word means, he will know what to do. ”
Haduron was also from a famous family, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Dick with an unbelievable look,
"No kidding! Dick! Sindra perished seven thousand years ago! They disappeared on the journey to Filas, and the remaining demons destroyed them, which was impossible. ”
It wasn't just Haduron who was surprised, even Barnes, the Night Elf Sentinel Commander who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but stand up, he leaned forward slightly, his expression was serious,
"This joke is too much, Knight Dick, Willings of Sindra... That hero from the War of the Ancients, you shouldn't be joking about him!"
"Heroes?"
Dick glanced at Barnes meaningfully, this moonblade assassin also served as the responsibility of connecting the night elves and Theramore, so the personal relationship between the two was good, but on this occasion, a strange smile swelled up on the corner of Dick's mouth,
"Why didn't Tyrande see you come forward and say that they were heroes when the civilians of Kadore let the populace of Darth Lema and Sindra outstand?
This rare tough response made the sentry commander a little speechless, especially his hesitation was seen by Haduron, the Ranger Lord immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, he left his seat without looking back, and gave Dick a deep look,
"I'm going to contact Prince Kael'thas at once! You're going to be ... It's too much fun. ”
In the face of Haduron's complaints, Dick pursed his lips and shrugged his shoulders,
"No way, who made me this far. ”
"Hey..."
Haduron finally let out a long sigh and turned to leave, and at this time, the whole audience was shocked, even the most unbelieving Overlord Sarufar, looked at Dick with a look of suspicion that could not be concealed.
But Dick ignored these different glances, and with a sigh of relief, he put his pipe back in his arms, and looked at Barnes, whose face was gloomy.
"I've heard that the Night Elves have recently planned to plant the seeds of a third World Tree in the Sea of Mists to relocate some of the Night Elf civilians, right? You like to call it "Teddashir"?"
"Bang!"
Barnes couldn't hold back any longer, and slammed his fist on the table, this good-tempered commander was going crazy, not to mention the matter of the descendants of Sindra, the Night Elves had concealed that secret for thousands of years, and now it was punctured in front of everyone's eyes, and the matter of Tedahiel, the moon god was above, and that matter was only known to the top of the Cadore and the Great Druids!
Dick... Is he really omniscient and omnipotent?
"Oh, it looks real. ”
The paladin stroked his beard, and he gave Barnes a big smile, "Go contact Malfurion and Tyrande, I have a big secret to tell them... As long as they can afford it!"
After speaking, without waiting for Barnes to reply, he directly stretched out a finger and shook it,
"Answer cautiously, Barnes, my friend, that the lives of at least a third of the population of Cadore are at stake. ”
A few minutes later, looking at the appearance of the Sentinel Commander leaving with a gloomy face, Dick seemed a little tired, and he looked up at the remaining representatives with different expressions,
"I'll be blunt, the rest of you, Marshal Windsor, on the condition that I help you recover the complete King Varian, and ask Stormwind to send troops to support the Northern Expedition. ”
"Overseer Sarufar, your son, Dranoth, Grom's son Garrosh, your brother's niece Sora, Kilrog's son Yorin, and the Shua Patriarch who raised you, yes, don't get so excited, my friend, none of them are dead, I use this news in exchange for your support, and if it's not enough, I can find a way to get you to meet, it's the best I can do. ”
"Finally, you, Overseer Lokan, Darkspear are the exiles of the Valley of Thorns, I know you want to take back your territory, but unfortunately, Kindu, the High Priest of Zul Grabri, may not give you this opportunity, and I heard that they have recently summoned the evil god Haka, and from the look in your eyes, I can see that you have heard this name, have you?"
Dick took the two quaint troll tablets from Gianna's hand, shook them in front of Lokan, the troll overseer, and finally turned to all the rest of the hall and said,
"I am not omniscient, but now I need you to do your part to support a cause of total justice, please note that this is not a request, after Lordaeron falls, you will be next, and if what I say is not important to you, then you can choose to stand by and watch!"
Dick's voice fell to the ground, and the entire chamber fell silent until another slender voice broke the silence, it was the representative of the Goblin Consortium, Garuwiz, the master of the Goblin Engineering with funny engineering goggles on his head, standing on his chair and banging on the table with some dissatisfaction,
"Hey, hey, Knight Dick, I haven't heard anything about the Goblin Consortium, do you think the power of the Goblins is dispensable?
"At least ten rare mines in the newly built Lordaeron Kingdom, and a quarter of the commercial circle of the entire Theramore Territory, this is my bid!"
Dick sat back in his chair, his hands crossed over his chest, and he looked at Garuwiz, who was no longer screaming, and a smile appeared on his tired face,
"Accept the deal?"
"Fifteen mines, half the quota!"
Garuwitz's small eyes widened, he dared to swear, this was definitely the biggest deal he had talked about since his debut, he seemed to see the rolling money rolling towards him, but he still gritted his teeth and raised the price, after all, the Blood Sail Pirate was about to be finished, and it was not easy to find a new source of wealth and persuade a few trade princes.
"What a greed!
Dick took the ring off his finger and threw it to the goblin, and then laughed and left the chamber with Gianna's help, walking in such a dashing manner that he had stripped off all the shackles and was about to win the whole world.
Old Fording was the second to leave, his erect spine seemed to be a little stiffer, and as he reached the gate, the old knight glanced back, shook his head, and finally strode away from the hall that had suffocated him.
The third to leave was the eldest princess of Kalia, and as she stood up, a nobleman from Stormwind who had come with General Windsor stood up politely,
"Your Highness, regarding Prince Anduin's return to the Stormwind Kingdom..."
"I'm in a bad mood right now, you can go directly to Anduin to talk about this matter. ”
"But Your Highness, this will affect the decency of the royal family of the Stormwind Kingdom and..."
Princess Kalia lost her rare temper, she directly waved her hand to interrupt the embarrassed nobleman's words, looked at the silent old marshal, and accentuated her tone,
"I don't think it's good to let Anduin live in a country full of cowards, preserve your dignity, our former allies, even if they are alone, Lordaeron will hold out until the last man falls. ”
"I hope you will remember Dick's words, and when Lordaeron falls, you will be next. ”
