19. Hatton and Vilen, Two Leaders, Two Paths (Part II)
"Bang"
The door to Ulduar's most secret office, once used by Lydon as a window to manage the world, was kicked open, and now Dick used it to store a lot of confidential information or conduct special experiments.
When the enraged Sylvanas strode into the office, the little light spirit Anvina was playing with her pet, the twilight dragon that had just hatched a few months ago, Alduin, this little guy deserved to inherit the Void Dragon's ability to devour the Void Power infinitely grow, even if it was staying in Ulduar without the Void Power, relying only on the strange food that Anvina and Resch casually threw at it, in a few months, it had grown to the size of a calf.
This is a volume that takes at least 20 years to grow for an ordinary young dragon, this little guy has a beautiful purple scale, when its mood swings are obvious, there will be black light flashing outside the scales, and it can also destroy a house with breath, the bold Avena also secretly ran to the top of Thor with Ray Shi when Alduin first hatched, and made a thunder enhancement for Alduin.
The little spirit held Dick's ownership, and the stone statues guarding her did not stop her.
Or was it only when Dick once in a while he passed by Alduin's lair that he noticed the abnormal beating lightning sparks on this young dragon, but what could he do about Anvina?
The light had become a part of his being, and even Dick could feel that the souls of the two were merging little by little.
When Sylvanas rushed into the office, she saw Dick writing something in front of her desk, she walked towards Dick, but was thought to be an intruder by Alduin, and the Twilight Dragon opened her mouth, and it was a twilight breath mixed with thunder and lightning that spewed out, but Sylvanas easily dodged it and kicked it in the ass, and the Twilight Dragon flew out with a rolling wail.
When Anvena saw that her pet had been beaten, she also jumped in front of Sylvanas in a flash, looking at her with a defiant gaze.
"Alright, Anvina, take your pet and play. ”
Dick's voice rang out from behind, and the light spirit grimaced at the frosty Sylvanas, patted her belly as if she were deliberately defiant, and then sat down on Alduin's head with a grin, letting the young dragon rush out of the office like a puppy.
Obviously, why Sylvanas came, the Light knew very well.
At this moment, the anger that the Ranger General could have controlled a little completely exploded, she gritted her teeth and looked at Dick, that anger was like substance,
"Why are you doing this!"
Dick put down the quill in his hand, and he turned to look at Sylvanas and beckoned to her, but the Ranger General remained in place like a stone statue, and did not move.
"Okay, okay! I don't know what Algalon is saying to you, but what I'm going to say is... You misunderstood!"
"What do you mean?"
Sylvanas frowned, she believed Dick's explanation, because he knew that Dick wouldn't lie to her, and Dick quickly explained, "Demigod is the sign that the life element in the universe has reached the top, you should know this, the second stage of the Path of Titans, which is my current state, is similar to the demigod, and the life element has reached a certain extreme, so... There's no way around it, but... My Khiva, it doesn't mean you're going to have a bulging belly after a few months, no, it's not like that. ”
Dick beckoned to the Ranger General again, Sylvanas softened a little when she heard that she was not in the state she had imagined, and in the air pushed from behind, she was finally held in Dick's arms, and the paladin touched her long golden hair, sniffed the fragrance between the strands, and whispered,
"It's just a sign of life, and it's only when you want it to start growing and stepping into the birth of a new life, and I don't know if that's going to happen, but you can rest assured that it won't affect your body and your life, but listen to me... Don't run around, I can't afford to lose any of you, I can go to Draenor, but not to Argus, it's too dangerous. ”
Dick felt Sylvanas in his arms to refute, so he took the first step to say his reason,
"It's not just for me, it's for your loved ones... Your sister Aurelia..."
When the Ranger General heard this, she immediately became nervous, and she grabbed Dick's arm, "What's wrong with my sister?"
Dick's eyes narrowed, and while reassuring the agitated Ranger General, he whispered,
"In your sister's body... There is something dark that she herself, including Tulayan, may not know about ... But it's okay, it's still too late, so you'll have to take care of your sister for the rest of the day, and it's going to be a tough time for her. ”
"Don't worry, my Shiva, I won't upset you. ”
Dick and Sylvanas talked about Aurelia as they stood, and after some uncontrollable cursing, Hatton's mood calmed down, and he followed Viren and Malad to a quiet reception room, where the Prophet stood up tremblingly and bowed before Hatton as he sat down.
"My friend, thank you for your perseverance in Argus for 25,000 years, I am ashamed of my duty, I'm sorry, please forgive me. ”
Hatton dismissed the apology.
"You should go and apologize to those who have lost everything..."
The chief let out a sigh of relief, his eyes turning sad, "I know it's not your fault, but... You have indeed disappointed us so much, Viren, that at the moment when darkness was coming, we lost the ability to listen to the Light, and at that moment, the moment when Sargeras did not come, our world was shattered, by ourselves, I don't even know why I survived, I don't know if I should have survived. ”
Marlad, who was sitting on one side, spoke,
"Mr. Hatton, you shouldn't blame the Prophet for this, the capacity of the Storm Fortress is limited, we can't fit everyone into it, and you know the situation at the time, once the existence of the Storm Fortress is known to Kilgardan and Akmund, even these elites of our society will lose the last hope of escaping... The whole world of Argus is feverishly awaiting the arrival of Sargeras, and so are we..."
"I know, I know. ”
Hatton interrupted Malrad's speech, his mood became low, "I was also one of those who expected darkness to come, I have no right to blame Viren for fleeing, I know, we are just looking for an excuse for our cowardice, but Viren, Marrad, look at us now, this pain needs a channel to vent, otherwise we will be driven crazy by ourselves... This twisted and ugly appearance is like a demon crawling out of the abyss of demons, the people can't accept this pain, it is because we have lost the favor of the Holy Light to become like this, we have been abandoned by the Holy Light!"
"I hate you, I hate myself even more, I know that if you had stayed, we would have lived much better than we have now, the Light has been so kind to you, if you could have stayed, if you could have stayed with us to fight against the infinite darkness, maybe we wouldn't have become like this, at least, at least with dignity, instead of living like this. ”
Hatton closed his eyes, as if he had lost all his strength, and he leaned back in his chair as if in a dream,
"When I saw you again, I knew I had never hated you... I'm just hating my own incompetence... I'm just hating myself for not being the wise you once was, and if I had been more capable, maybe my people wouldn't have suffered such a fate..."
"No, Hatton, my old friend, you've done good enough. ”
Viren whispered, "Even if I am in your place, I will not do better than you, because the transformation of the Broken is not something that can be stopped by personal ability, if you have enough time, I want to invite two old friends, after meeting them, you will know that all this is not your fault, and the absence of the Light does not mean that there is no faith... It's the devil's fault!"
"Time doesn't mean anything to me anymore, let me see, Viren. ”
Hatton opened his eyes and looked at the Prophet, "Give me a reason that will convince me, a reason that will convince the people." ”
Viren nodded, then looked at Marad,
"Go, Marlad, invite the elders of Nobordon and the chief of Akama to Ulduar, and tell them that friends from their homeland are waiting for them here. ”
Marrad was ordered to leave, and Hatton searched for information about the two men in his long memory, and after a moment, he said,
"Akama is the sheriff of Makere City, and Nobalton is the assistant teacher of the Awoke's Academy, and they... Do they have the answer to our problem?"
Viren said with a smile,
"You are still as learned as ever, old friend, the darkness has not robbed you of your wisdom, and you should not let him take away your will, yes, they have a new faith in them that does not conflict with the Light, and that is the best way to solve the problem, and... I will advise you to the managers of the world that we should find a new home for our people when Argus is no longer fit for our people. ”
"We will not abandon Argus's... Viren!"
Hatton closed his eyes, "I am not like you, in my most desperate moments, the remnant will of Argus sheltered me and my people, I will consider the new faith you have shown me, but I will not abandon him like you, I will die in Argus, on the land that gave birth to me and raised me." ”
Hearing this, Viren's expression became even more bitter, but after a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, as a mature ruler, Viren would not be crushed by this language and voice, and most importantly, after 25 thousand years, the Draenei were already equivalent to another civilization that had just been born, and perhaps after the next generation of children grew up, they would even have a sense of alienation from Argus.
This was something that Veren had been worried about, but even if he did his best to preserve all the materials of the world of Argus, he couldn't stop this evolution, and he wanted the Draenei to become a part of Azeroth, but he also didn't want the legacy from his homeland to be severed in this area.
Simply... Hatton came, and with everything from his hometown, he came.
It's a gift, a gift from Argus, isn't it?
