It was precisely because Sylvanas's stunning cloud-piercing arrow gave Arthas a strong psychological shadow that he wondered why Sylvanas's final dark green arrow had no effect. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info After searching the soul memories of a group of High Elves, Arthas got the answer. This made him feel a little emotional—if it weren't for the fact that he had become a death knight, he would probably have died in that dense forest.
Arthas broke free from his memories and looked at the "Pterodactyl Spike" that was still stuck in Drektar's arm. The dark green color of the arrow had dimmed considerably, and Arthas understood that this was the result of the toxin attached to the arrow spreading into the old orc's body, and now that this rare and rare arrow had gradually lost its effectiveness.
Arthas came to Drektar, and the old orc's body had stiffened, and even his eyes no longer sparkled. Arthas reached out and pulled out the arrow from Drektar's arm and threw it on the ground. Alessandros Mograini and Tirio Fordin, startled by Arthas's movements, hurriedly stepped forward and held down Drektar to prevent the old orc from rising out and hurting His Highness again.
The arrows were pulled away, and Drektar regained consciousness slightly, and although the strong poison of the pterosaur was still raging in his body, the old orc could at least twist his neck. Arthas raised his head slightly, looked at the old orc, who was still standing like a stone sculpture, and asked, "From the beginning, you planned to hold the human commander hostage in exchange for the safe evacuation of your people, right?"
Drektar lowered his head slightly, looked at this human prince who had been held hostage by himself, but was still calm, and said with some slurred words: "Yes." I had this intention when Cracktooth informed me of humanity's intention to negotiate. It's just that after I got to the snow hill, I changed my target to you, which is easier to deal with. "Drektar's lingua franca had a strange tone, but now his tongue is a little numb, and the words he says are even more ridiculous.
Arthas smiled and said, "Actually, I already knew you had this plan. Drektar was stunned, a puzzled look in his eyes. Arthas explained, "Actually, the reason why we found out about your clan is because I happened to be nearby when you hunted the snowman that day. ”
One of the doubts in Drektar's mind was answered—he had not understood that their clan had been in seclusion in the Alterac Valley for nearly six years without being discovered, and that this time they had been suddenly attacked by a human prince. However, Drektar was still very puzzled, and did not understand how Arthas could see his intention to come to negotiate from this.
Arthas continued: "I witnessed you kill the snowman that day. It took a little effort, but I have to admit that your body is still strong, not as old as it looks. But as soon as you get up to the snow hill, you can't even say a word, you have to stop and rest for a while. Obviously, you're trying to make us think you're weak and let our guard down on you - when in fact, your strategy has worked perfectly. ”
Hearing Arthas's words, Uther and the others were a little confused - Arthas was right, whether it was the two paladins, or the Caddor mage and Winlessa, they were all deceived by the weak appearance that Drektar disguised. Drektar was a little puzzled, and asked inarticulately, "In that case, why don't you say it and be held hostage by me......?"
Arthas shook his head, smiled, and said, "It's okay, I trust her." Frost Sorrow on one side listened to her master's words, a little proud, her pointed chin raised in the air, and she completely forgot that she hadn't actually done anything just now. Wen Lesa blushed when she heard Arthas's words, thinking that Arthas was referring to herself, and lowered her head a little embarrassed, but she was thinking in her heart - this is the first time I have met this little boy, right? Why did he believe in me so much? I don't know why, Wen Lesa suddenly remembered that when she was on the horse, Arthas used her mischievous fingers to draw circles on her stomach, and a strange feeling rippled in her heart.
With the exception of Arthas and Frostmourn, everyone on the snow dunes thinks that this "she" refers to Winlessa. Only the mage of Khadgar was keenly aware that Arthas was not facing the High Elf Ranger when he said this, but at the place where he could not see. Master Khadgar thought silently to himself—she?Could it be that the demon of Sartre who had bewitched the prince of Arthas was a woman?
(For example, unlike Chinese, World of Warcraft has a different pronunciation of "he" and "she" in the language, similar to "he" and "she" in English.) )
Drektar listened to Arthas's explanation, still a little puzzled. After all, in his opinion, this child is a noble enough human prince, and at the same time his mind is so precocious that it makes people feel terrible, not like the kind of person who would expose himself to danger. However, Drektar was in no mood to care about this now, he just hung his head and waited for the group of people to pronounce death on his clan.
Mograine asked Uther for instructions: "Uther, since the negotiation has failed, why don't you take advantage of the absence of the orc chieftain to launch an attack?" Uther nodded, and was about to give the order to attack, but was interrupted by Arthas: "Uther, teacher, please wait. Uther swallowed back the words that had come to his lips and looked at Arthas, wondering what else was going on.
Drektar was already dead, but when he heard Arthas's words, his eyes still shone with some brilliance - from the previous arrangement plan for the orcs described by Arthas, Drektar could tell that the human prince had put a lot of effort into this negotiation, which proved that he did not want the orcs to be slaughtered.
Arthas turned to Drektar and asked, "Chief, do you think it is possible for humans to learn to communicate with elemental spirits and become shamans like you?" Although this group of orcs of the Frostwolf Clan cannot join the human army, if Drektar can teach the humans how to communicate with the elemental spirits, and then let those human shamans appear on the battlefield, it will definitely enhance the strength of the human army, just like the High Elves taught humans how to use arcane arts.
Drektar was stunned, then closed his eyes, muttering something unknown. Fearing that the old orc was playing tricks on them and attacking them with shamanic sorcery, Mograine looked at Khadgar Mage to learn what Drektar was talking about.
