Chapter 51: Arthas Misinaire
After Benny arrives at the outpost with his team, he leaves Keller and Redpass behind to build a defense. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info himself refused the elf's escort and went to Stratholme alone.
Riding a horse, Benny filtered the memories of his past life in his mind, thinking about where to start his trip to Stratholme. The prince was too tall to touch, and neither was Uther. The baron is not there, and the baroness does not care. The bishop can, but at this time, the church could not directly enter the decision-making hierarchy as in later generations, and Benedictas, who was currently the most powerful, was now only an adviser to the king, and he was very low-key. When I think about it, I can't do anything.
"Hello!"
Benny was interrupted from his thoughts and looked up, his eyes fixed. 'Blonde hair, handsome face. And the blue warhammer on the back. Is it Alsace? ’
Benny dismounted and gave a salute: "Hello." ”
The paladin jumped off his horse, helped the woman dressed as a wizard behind him, and introduced, "I am Prince Lordaeron, Arthas Misinel, and this is the mage of Dalaran, Gianna Proudmoor. ”
"Hello, Your Highness the Prince, hello, ma'am. I'm a Daron County missionary, Benedict Smith. "Sure enough, it's Alsace. That beautiful blonde mage was the legendary Gianna.
Arthas nodded: "Can you take off your hood?" ”
"Of course."
Benny took off his hood, and his black hair had not been repaired for more than half a month, and it looked a little messy.
Arthas breathed a sigh of relief: "Forgive my presumptuousness, I have to be cautious. ”
Benny nodded, "I understand, Your Highness. ”
Arthas handed the horse to Gianna and approached Benny: "It seems that the current situation is already known. "Alsace didn't have a fight, it was like he was talking to a friend.
Benny maintained the respect he deserved: "Yes, Your Highness. The plague also has the undead. Talon County is under attack by the undead, and the townspeople have come here to escape the attack. ”
Arthas wondered: "Here? ”
Benny nodded: "Because I don't know the situation in Stratholme, everyone in the town is waiting at the border outpost in Quel'Salas for the time being, and I went to Stratholme to find out the situation." ”
Arthas frowned: "You go to find out the situation?" Why not send out scouts? ”
Benny sighed: "Your Highness, there are less than 200 militias and 30 paladins in Dalong County. We don't have professional scouts, and ------" he glanced at the warhammer behind the prince, "I still have some combat power. ”
Alsace was even more puzzled, what kind of combat power does a priest have?
A holy light flying sword appeared beside Benny, and his heart moved, and the flying sword shot into the small tree next to the road, and the golden light exploded, and the small tree broke off at the waist. There are some burnt marks on the fracture.
Arthas and Gianna looked at Benny in amazement, they had never seen such a holy light spell.
"Similar to the Paladin's Judgment, Your Highness. I can control 10 flying swords at the same time. ”
Benny showed some pride, which he hoped would draw attention to Arthas and allow him to smoothly participate in the heart of the Stratholme affair.
Arthas nodded, his face amazed, "I have never heard of you in the kingdom. ”
"Your Highness, fighting is not what we are after, if it weren't for those undead, I would prefer to sit in the church and study the doctrine and spread the Holy Light."
Gianna whispered something in Arthas's ear, and she suspected it wasn't the Light. Arthas shook his head, it was indeed the Holy Light, he couldn't feel wrong, and --- was very pure Holy Light.
Arthas straightened his face: "Priest Smith, I would like to know if the grain from Andorhar has entered the Stratholme region, and if the people of Dalonshire have ----- infected with the plague. ”
Benny shook his head and looked serious: "No, Your Highness." I intercepted the grain convoy of Andorhar, and the food carrying the plague was destroyed in Talon County, which has always been self-sufficient and never buys food from other regions. ”
Arthas nodded, along the way, he really didn't smell the strange smell of plague food in Hearth Valley
"It's the best news we've heard along the way. Thank you for everything. Alsace could see that the young priest was the one who led the county of Talon.
Benny shook his head, "What I did was insignificant, Your Highness. I don't know if you know about Malganis? ”
Arthas shook his head.
"It's a high-ranking demon, Your Highness. It's behind it all. Everything is curated by it. Moreover--- although the plague food did not enter the Stratholm area, many villages here are still infected with the plague, and the people in the village have become undead, and we have encountered many sporadic undead along the way. I suspect it has a way of directly converting people into undead. ”
Arthas's face changed: "Demon? And what about Kel'thugad, whom we killed? ”
"The demon mentioned that name, Your Highness. That's nothing more than a puppet. ”
Arthas's face was ugly, didn't that mean that his efforts all the way were in vain?
"Arthas, we should rush to Stratholme as soon as possible." Gianna reminded the lovers.
Arthas nodded hurriedly: "Yes! He looked at Benny, hesitating. Still, ........ people in Talonshire? ”
"They have enough food and water, and the rangers of the Quel Salas Far Travelers to help, so it's no problem for the time being, Your Highness."
Arthas nodded, and he had the mages of Quel'Salas on his team. Quel'Salas has always had a good relationship with Lordaeron.
"Then we'll go straight to Stratholme, and I want you to come with us, Reverend Smith."
"Of course, Your Highness."
Turning on his horse, he followed Arthas and Gianna to join the group at the junction, and they headed for Stratholme. Looking at Arthas, who was talking to Gianna from time to time, Benny had mixed feelings, if possible, he hoped to change the fate of Arthas, this is a good prince.
Arthas urged the soldiers, and they had walked less than a day and a half on the journey.
Suddenly it began to rain in the sky, and the rain that had just begun to spring was bitterly cold. Benny looked at the smoke wafting above Stratholme, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"I'm glad you did, Uther."
"Watch your tone, Arthas. You're a prince, but as a paladin, I'm your chief!"
Benny turned around and looked at Arthas's cold expression, he couldn't understand why Arthas, who seemed to be gentle and polite, would become like he was in history when he encountered this incident. It is not difficult to distinguish between the infected and the uninfected, and the slaughter of the city is not the only option at all!
