7. The Queen of Freedom
Under the burning of Gamor's will, the mana bombs that Luo Ning had placed around the hiding place were detonated one after another, and brilliant flames rose from the ruins of Niskara at this moment, completely blasting the entire barely existing battlefield from the center, and cutting in half the demons who were constantly rushing from the direction of Lone Peak.
But the High Inquisitor Kumaradun only glanced back at the heavenly fire in the distance, and then turned his head again, letting the explosion mean nothing to him, and his voice did not fluctuate,
"Thors is dead, she's long overdue, it was because of her negligence that another Windranger escaped, but it's okay that I still have two!
Ronin, who was surrounded by thousands of elite demons, raised his staff with an ugly face, and behind him, Wen Lesa carried Sylvanas on her back, her face was also ugly, according to the current situation, it was difficult for them to escape again, and Illidare's support did not know when it would arrive.
"Give me that bow! You hold a secret in your hand that you shouldn't know! I'll only say it once! Give it to me!"
Seeing that the prey was so uncooperative, Kuimaradun completely lost interest in talking to them, and it stretched out its hand towards Luo Ning in front of him, which was probably the demon's unique "kindness", but what it got was a crazy fire, Luo Ning couldn't see even the slightest fear in his eyes, some were just disdain and anger, like a tiger that had been cornered.
Several rays shot out from the floating eyeballs beside the High Inquisitor, extinguishing the incoming flames, and the fierce light in its eyes lit up, and its floating body swayed for a moment, then stretched out its hand and shook it gently.
"Kill him!By the way, leave the lives of 2 Windrangers, your bloodline is interesting!"
This command caused the surrounding demon guards to roar loudly, and they strode forward with their weapons in hand, and the voice of Wen Lesa, who was clenching the long knife, also reached Luo Ning's ears at this moment,
"I'm sorry, dear, I pulled you into danger, I'm sorry"
The corners of Luo Ning's mouth crossed a smile of relief at this moment, and at this moment, when Marton's light shone on his side face, it made this mage look with a special temperament, "What stupid words, my Wen Leisa, if it weren't for you, I would have died at the hands of that black dragon, not to mention, to die for you, isn't this my wish? ”
"Good!"
After saying that, a smile appeared on the corners of both of their mouths, although they said it very easily, but with this number of demons, plus a high-level demon overseer, and Sylvanas, who had completely lost their combat effectiveness on their side, the chances of them leaving here alive were very small.
"Huh"
But at this moment, a green light curtain lit up from the starry sky, and finally accurately projected on the ground not far from the two people, which was a temporary legion portal directly from the Storm Fortress into Niskara, which could only teleport 2-3 people at a time, after Quemaradun regained control of Niskara, it was already the ultimate that Illidare could do to open this kind of portal, but in the face of this number of demons, 2-3 people, it could not be reversed at all.
But this time it was a little different, as soon as the dark green light door opened, a familiar voice was inserted into the affectionate conversation between Luo Ning and Wen Lessa.
"Uh, sorry to bother, can you talk about this sensual love story later?"
This sentence completely destroys the moving atmosphere created by Ronin and Wen Leisa, and more importantly, it is familiar!
The mage turned his head suddenly, and saw Dick wearing a black trench coat and holding a starlight scepter, who was walking out of the light gate, but he hadn't seen him for half a month, and this guy had a trace of indescribable feelings, especially at the moment when he stepped into Niskara's ground from the portal, the mage even felt the ground trembling under his feet, screaming, and fearing, and it seemed that even they, who had been broken and died, were afraid of this guy who had just arrived.
The paladin didn't care about Ronin's gaze, he looked at Sylvanas who was carried behind by Winlesa, the Ranger General was embarrassed to the extreme, he reached out to take the sleeping Sylvanas from Winlessa, and held her in his arms with a different kind of tenderness, looking at the beautiful face that was ruined by exhaustion and scars, he sighed slightly,
"Look, you're always so disobedient"
But before Dick could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by another voice, and the High Inquisitor Quimaradun looked at Dick who came out of the portal, and he laughed wildly and commanded the surrounding demon army to speed up, "Ah, another rat that jumped into the trap!
The paladin glanced up at his surroundings and shook his head, his gaze didn't even linger on Kuimaradun for even a second, and then the first silver light feather suddenly appeared behind him, a tall human heroic spirit wearing silver armor strode out of the light feather with a heavy sword, followed by the next orc warrior, also in silver armor, but with a heavy axe in his hand, his expression was solemn, this scene made Luo Ning and Wen Lesa grow their mouths in surprise.
The speed at which the light feather appeared was very fast, just a few seconds, the beating silver light completely filled the space around the three people, and when the silver light dissipated, a heroic spirit army of nearly a thousand people stood quietly in place, squeezing the encirclement left by the demons tightly, they were like the most loyal guards, arching and guarding Dick's side, and on the body of each heroic spirit, there was a scorching heat that made those demons can't help but scream.
The paladin's gaze fell on Kuimaradun's body at this moment, like a sharp sword light that was about to cut through its body, making the high-level demon tremble, and even wanted to turn around and run away, Dick gave it the feeling that it was even more terrifying to face a real big demon, escape!
But it doesn't have that chance.
"Kill them!By the way, leave the soul of that high-level demon behind, his secret, it's interesting!"
The words landed, and the silver storm charged in all directions at this moment, and the first row of demons were chopped to the ground like chopping melons and vegetables, Dick's Heroic Warriors could compete with Yugsaron, not to mention these low-level demons, they could handle everything, so Dick withdrew his gaze, hugged Sylvanas and turned around and walked to the light gate behind him, he glanced back at Ronin and Wenlesa, who were a little helpless in place,
"What? Are you going to stay here for Thanksgiving?"
Luo Ning was speechless for a moment, and then pointed in the direction of Gu Feng, "Where is there a dead minotaur, he saved us, his soul should still be there." ”
"Oh, you mean, let me give him another chance?"
Dick frowned and thought for a moment, then finally looked at Sylvanas in his arms and sighed, "Okay." ”
He took Sylvanas in another position in his arms, then dug into the pocket of his trench coat and threw a blank soul stone to Ronin, "Leave it to you, I'll give him a chance, but whether he can get what he wants depends on his own will." ”
After speaking, the paladin picked up the Ranger General again, strode into the light gate, the light curtain swayed twice, and it shattered, Luo Ning rubbed the soul stone in his hand, he looked at his wife, and whispered,
"He seems to have become different. ”
Wen Lesa nodded vigorously, "It's a little more indifferent than before, but am I going to call him brother-in-law instead?"
“”
Six hours later, Niskala was completely reduced to shards in the twisted void by the roar of the Storm Fortress's energy cannon, and at the same moment, Dick gently opened the door to Sylvanas's room, he walked to the side of the bed with his cane, sat down in a chair, and in the not-so-bright light, he quietly looked at the Ranger General lying there, and the face that had been full of confidence, independence, and pride was now a little more delicate and pale.
Her injuries were severe, and even the leader of the Illidan Breakers, the shaman Akama, personally treated her, and it took Dick to look at her, just as Sylvanas felt Dick in his heart, and the paladin could vaguely feel the ranger general's affection for him, which, frankly, would have surprised him a few years ago.
It was Sylvanas, the queen who had charmed countless players, but unfortunately, Dick was not very fond of such personal feelings now, and when the heavy pressure was on his shoulders, he didn't have much time to deal with his own affairs, as he often laughed at himself.
If you are too respected, sometimes you have to pay a big price.
What's more, his current love life is simply a mess, Lordaeron's queen Kalia has not held a foreign ministers' meeting for 2 consecutive months, if it weren't for the military nobles firmly standing on her side, and her superb status in the eyes of the people, this alone is enough to make the unstable Lordaeron turbulent, but the reason for this is only known to him and Kalia, as well as a few real henchmen.
And Gianna, there are some things that can't be hidden from this clever mage lady, although it is not explicitly stated, but the current state between the two is undoubtedly in a cold war, even if there is already a skin-to-skin relationship, but for this embarrassing thing, Dick feels that he doesn't know what way to face the girl who is willing to give up the throne for him.
Liadline is the most worry-free woman, but unfortunately she has been helping the little wolf girl Verinde deal with the growing werewolf plague in Gilneth lately, and has little time to mediate the conflict between him and Gianna.
In this case, Dick can only politely refuse this heavy favor, not to mention, after the battle of Dalaran, Sylvanas deliberately avoided it and couldn't hide it from him, he really didn't know much about women's hearts, but this was undoubtedly a signal, so Dick also followed Sylvanas's idea and stopped meeting her.
There is so much love for one person, and it is given to too many people, and after all, he will get nothing, whether it is due to responsibility or accident, Dick has enough emotional debts, and this kind of mutual affection, it is better to forget each other in the state of the rivers and lakes, which also makes him breathe a sigh of relief, but until today, when he saw the painful expression of Sylvanas who was held in his arms, that irrepressible anger killed all the demons of Niskara in an instant.
The immortal and immortal Immortal Legion will not be merciful, especially in the face of such a force that is definitely not friendly, they will strictly carry out any orders of Dick, and only the soul of one demon in the entire Niskara can be saved, and this kind of encounter is definitely not lucky for a high-level demon.
What does this anger mean behind it, after calming down, Dick knows better than anyone else, it is like a spring, the more repressed it is, the higher it jumps when it rebounds, whether it is him or Sylvanas, the efforts made by the two of them are all collapsed today.
Dick sat silently at the Ranger General's bedside for an hour, unable to utter a word, and at last he stood up, reached out and stroked Sylvanas's forehead lightly, brushing her somewhat disheveled hair aside, and finally, he straightened his clothes and turned away.
Left, there is only a sigh, sometimes, feelings are really unreasonable, come quickly, when you want to disconnect, but it hurts, but after the heartache, maybe it is a new future.
Sylvanas was unwilling to deny himself because of him, unwilling to be a vassal of a man, unwilling to lose his freedom.
Then give her real freedom.
Dick's gaze became firm again, he carried too much on his shoulders, and after making a decision, he didn't have much time to regret it, but the moment he twisted the lock, a hoarse voice sounded behind him.
"You've been sitting next to me for an hour, and you won't even say a word to me?"
Dick twisted the door lock and stopped, for him now, Sylvanas's pretending to sleep was almost like a child's joke, but he didn't debunk it, because he didn't know what to say, so in the face of this question, in the face of the person behind him, he didn't look back.
"Isn't the silence that you pretended to sleep next to me for an hour just an answer?"
Sylvanas leaned against the head of the bed, she looked at the man's back, and an unspeakable grievance rose in the heart of the ranger general, who had become emotionally fragile due to injury, and she pursed her lips,
"Can't you just take the initiative once? Do you want me to make a decision every time? Estrangement is like this, even if you give me something, let your people do it for you, even if you want to help me, you want Liadline to say it instead of you, you coward!"
Dick breathed a sigh of relief, he turned around and leaned against the door, a bitter smile that could not be concealed at the corner of his mouth,
"I'm just an ordinary man, I don't know why you love me, but do you understand?Shiva, you're not like everyone else, you've been like a queen for the past endless time, and I can only look up to your grace, which stresses me out, and now Liadrin, isn't it?"
"Click"
Sylvanas got out of bed with some difficulty, she walked over to Dick, she was taller than Dick, she looked at the man in front of her, he was not handsome, he was not handsome, he was far from the elves of Quel'Thalas, but the closer she got to him, she could feel safe.
"You bastard!"
Sylvanas looked at Dick, she cursed, but the next moment, her cold lips kissed Dick, passionate, crazy, like a moth to a fire, for a long time, her lips parted, she put her head on Dick's shoulder, and whispered, "But I can't turn back, I fell in love with a bastard." ”
Dick looked at the light above him, and it seemed more and more blurry, and finally, with a soft sigh, he wrapped his hands around Sylvanas's waist and whispered in her ear, "I'm sorry I broke your heart with this bastard." ”
"I won't share you with anyone, Dick, but you don't want me to forget that when you were with me, you weren't allowed to think about other women!
The lights slowly dimmed under the orders of the higher wills, and the indulgent emotions burned like flames in this place millions of light years away from Azeroth, this moment is so beautiful as to what tomorrow will be, whatever.
