Chapter Seventy-Five: The Battle of Arlington (1)

Switching of perspective, third person.

October 1, Arlington Cemetery.

While the war was in full swing on the outskirts of Washington, Arlington Cemetery in the distance also welcomed uninvited guestsβ€”three necromancers, and waiting for them in Arlington were the young sorcerers Bob, Adam, Nash, and Varus, plus Tyrone, Qin Ming, and Colonel Bayes, who had appeared at the conference before. Well, Bob and the others can't be considered combat effectiveness, and they had already guessed that the American Arcane Department would also send an Arcanist at the rank of colonel or above to guard Arlington, but because the authority was too low, they didn't know the specific situation after all. Strictly speaking, the top brass here is much better 3-on-3 than 5-on-7 on the outskirts of Washington, although they don't have time to think about the boring comparison right now.

At this time, the four Bobs can completely ignore it, this level of battle is not something they can participate in, the necromancer does not summon skeletons for cannon fodder, and the American Arcane Department does not prepare any troops here;

Tyrone: "Necromancer, holy Arlington is not something you can violate. ”

"It's ridiculous to think about it, is that how you treat the Heroic Spirits?"

A necromancer said so, although it is not surprising that there will be any conversation with the necromancer, but this is a little inexplicable, Tyrone and the others were stunned, and the necromancer did not take the opportunity to attack or anything, because it was useless, and the reaction power of the sorcerer was very strong. The necromancer in front of him, as expected, was wearing a gray-black robe and a hat, holding a magic wand of dead wood, but what was surprising was that this thing was actually very handsome? At least Tyrone and the others were completely incomparable, well, Tyrone and the others' faces were "majestic" type, and they were not handsome or anything, according to the inertia of the novel, could it be that this thing represents justice, the protagonist?

Tyrone: "What do you mean?"

"Let the Heroic Spirits sleep in the ground and eventually turn to dust, is your attitude towards the Heroic Spirits?"

Tyrone: "What else do you want to do?"

"Of course, it's for the Heroic Spirits to continue to 'live'. ”

Tyrone: "That is, to become a necromancy?"

"Do you think there's something wrong?"

Tyrone: "......"

Common sense tells us that it is wrong to fight, but why is that? Maybe you can name a bunch of reasons, what destroys unity, what destroys normal order, what everyone thinks so, but these do not prove that fighting is wrong, and it is not enough from a purely logical point of view, and the reason why you think so is because your values add a lot of emotional parts to your judgment and make you less "rational"; However, if there are completely different values, then the original judgment may be completely overturned. Or, the existence of different values should not exist in communication, that is, the so-called "different ways do not conspire with each other", you can't explain the other party, and the other party can't convince you.

Right now, Tyrone is in this situation, and communicating with that necromancer is a mistake in itself. It's obviously meaningless dialogue, and it can't convince the other party, nor can it change morale or anything like that, so why do you have to say it before every battle? Maybe it's out of the habit of pretending to be forced. If he could, Tyrone would prefer to just fight, and then prove that the winner was the winner, or should he say that the surviving dish was correct. However, if you don't have to fight, there is no need to start fighting, after all, it is still a bit tiring to go to war with all your might, so Tyrone has a hard time enduring the "brainwashing" of the necromancer in front of him.

"I forgot to mention that my name is Alsace, so you don't have to say your name, I'm not interested. ”

The self-proclaimed Necromancer of Arthas seems to be a bit of a mid-2 one, and I wonder if that's good news.

Tyrone: "What the hell are you here for?"

Arthas: "Are you satisfied with the answer to the creation of the Holy Necromancy, and I would be glad if you were interested in joining us...... Judging by your expression, it's unlikely. So, are we going to war?"

Tyrone: "......"

The scene suddenly fell silent, and for a while Tyrone didn't know what to do, and he didn't fight, he didn't fight, and it was also hurtful to talk to Arthas. Obviously, it is easy to start a war, only one needs to send out that first attack, but neither side has made a move, as if they are waiting for the other party to strike first, even if it will put their own side into a rather passive situation. On Arlington's side, the person in charge is Tyrone, after all, Qin Ming, who is fighting away, is not suitable, and it is impossible for the American Arcane Department to put him in charge; as for Bayes, Tyrone is more familiar with the situation, after all, Tyrone has already fought with the necromancer before, and he is also the colonel who first communicated with Qin Ming. As the person in charge, of course, you also have to deal with "diplomatic" issues, even if it will be painful.

Qin Ming: "Do you know a lot about human beings because you are also a human being?"

Arthas: "Humans, maybe, I don't know, but it doesn't matter to me. ”

Qin Ming: "So, what's important to you?"

Arthas: "Unknown. ”

Qin Ming: "Even you don't know?"

Alsace: "No, the most important thing for me is the unknown. ”

Qin Ming: "In other words, you don't care about whether you create a necromancer, but about the fun of the process?"

Arthas: "You can think so. ”

Ginger is still old and spicy, well, there is nothing derogatory about this sentence. Qin Ming made a risky attempt, a temptation of Alsace, although normally it is impossible for others to be so straightforwardly tricked. The reason why it is so easy is probably because Arthas doesn't think it's important, anyway, even if the purpose is different, he needs Arlington's heroic spirit like the other necromancers, and they all try to create the Holy Necromancer, the difference is that other necromancers may not necessarily succeed, but he will definitely be able to get the pleasure he wants in the process, even if he dies in battle, after all, he doesn't know when he will die.

Speaking of which, the future is really a beautiful word.

Although they know what Arthas wants to do, Tyrone, Qin Ming and Bayes are not the slightest bit happy, in a sense, Arthas in front of him may be more terrifying than the other two necromancers, well, this refers to aspects other than combat effectiveness, for example: other necromancers will weigh the pros and cons and choose the best solution, but Arthas is not necessarily, he is more rational, but he is also more crazy, that kind of madness gives him great strength, and allows him to continue to get stronger, if he is not dead at that time.

Which option is better, to be turned into a necromancy, or to be used as a toy for experimentation? Anyway, Tyrone will not let either of these two situations happen, the Heroic Spirit is not to be blasphemed, knowing Arthas's thoughts, Tyrone is almost even more angry, although it is useless, and it will not improve his combat power or anything.

Tyrone: "Go to war." ”

The tone was very flat, it was like answering Alsace's previous question, but the scene was as silent as ever, as if everything was just funny. No one struck first, it was clear that it could have taken the lead for itself, and the breeze became solemn, full of the smell of gunpowder and the smell of necromancy......

Arthas: "Why are you so repulsive to the Necromancy?"

Tyrone: "Become a necromancy, become your puppet?"

Arthas: "Of course, no, even if the low-level necromantic IQ is a hard injury, they still have their own independent thinking, their own life, even if it may be a bit monotonous. Necromancers exist only to serve as mentors to most of the necromancers, giving them a chance to return to the world. ”

Tyrone: "But it brought great disaster to the living beings?"

Arthas: "It's just that the creatures themselves can't accept the dead, even if they themselves know that they will die one day, they are their own kind, but they reject their own kind so much." ”

Tyrone couldn't imagine how Arthas had the brains to think that humans and necromancy would be the same kind, but if it weren't for the fact that the typing was particularly heavy and the super heavy taste, no one would want to live with the necromancy, right?

Arthas: "It's as if you whites exclude blacks." ”

All of a sudden, the issue of racial discrimination in the United States? Well, Tyrone is embarrassed about that, after all, it's not a glorious thing. As for Tyrone himself, he didn't exclude blacks or anything, there were a lot of blacks in the Northland Academy, there were also many blacks in the Heavenly Guild, and although Tyrone himself was white, because the "dragon" was an evil existence in the culture, and he was also discriminated against in the American Arcane Department to a certain extent, he could understand the feelings of blacks. However, the necrons are worthy of being compared to the Negroes? What should be complained about is that Alsace knows too much about the human world, although the problem of racial discrimination in the United States is no secret.

Is it true that human beings are such despicable beings? Maybe Arthas is right? How could it be?

Bayes: "Tyrone, don't be affected, he's doing this trick, maybe he's already enjoying the 'unknown'. ”

Bayes, who had been silent all the time, suddenly reminded at this time, Tyrone paused for a moment, and then reacted, Well, people who play tactics have dirty hearts, even necromancers. Maybe it's the so-called bystander, but the more you observe Bayes, the more frightened you become, Arthas may be even more terrifying than you think, well, it's still talking about aspects other than combat effectiveness.

Seeing Bayes's reminder, there was not the slightest displeasure on Arthas's expression, in his opinion, it was just a trivial entertainment, or it didn't make much sense. There was no point in continuing to use his superb argumentation skills, and Arthas tried to do what Taylor had always wanted to do but had not done, to strike first and break the deadlock on the battlefield. It would have been better if this preemptive strike had been a little more successful, and three circles of blue energy appeared under the feet of the three of them, and then it took about half a second before exploding, and the future was not big.

How could this kind of speed threaten them at the rank of colonel? took a step and dodged, and finally started the battle, Tyrone didn't know whether to be happy or sad, anyway, he was quite depressed just now.
