Chapter Twenty-Seven: Troll Invasion
"Why...... Why do you ...... me like this," I asked, bowing my head sadly, in a voice that only Cynoam and I could hear. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hearing this, Cynoan's expression changed slightly, he opened his mouth, and was about to speak, but a familiar voice came from outside.
"Brother! She didn't do it! I can testify! ”
I turned my head to look, and saw Severn walking briskly into the hall of the council hall.
Lotherma, who has been silent since the beginning. Theron spoke, "Severn, are you going to intercede for this Night Elf?" ”
Severn walked up to me, knelt down on one knee in front of the regent of Silvermoon City, and said, "Your Highness, I am not interceding for him, but testifying. ”
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Lotherma with determined eyes. Theron.
"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Belea's eyes: "Severn, how are you going to testify for this Night Elf?" ”
"I've been following her since she left the ball last night, and she hasn't been to any place where the Yongge Runestone is set up." Severn replied calmly.
Hearing this, I couldn't believe it, and I looked at the side of Saiwen's face.
He's lying! Why is he lying?!
"I ......" I was about to speak, but I was interrupted by Severn again.
"She just went to Yangfan Port, not anywhere else, and I followed her all the time and saw it with my own eyes." As if he was afraid that everyone would not believe it, he deliberately said the words "what he saw with his own eyes" very loudly. At the end, he glanced at me and motioned with his eyes for me not to speak.
I obediently closed my mouth.
"Not only that," Severn clapped his hands, and the guards behind him dragged in a woman dressed as a maid.
The woman seemed unconscious, thrown to the ground by the guards like a dead man, motionless.
"Who is this?" Lotherma. Theron asked, surprised.
"This is Miss Belea's maid, I guess Miss Belia should know her, right?" Severn looked in Belea's direction.
Belia was taken aback and couldn't help but go to see Cynoan.
Cynoan was also frowning, looking at her.
Belia stabilized her mood and said with a smile: "I have a lot of maids, I don't remember much. ”
Saiwen also smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember, Miss Belea, it was your maid who destroyed the Yongge Rune, which caused the destruction of the magic barrier. ”
"This ......," Belea's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
"That shouldn't have been her intention, though," Severn smiled and continued, "because she's been controlled by the trolls' voodoo. ”
Belia looked at Cynoan in surprise.
Cynoan looked at his brother and asked, "Voodoo?" How did you find out? ”
Saiwen said expressionlessly: "Just now, when I went to check on each rune boulder, I found a dropped voodoo doll, which is a prop controlled by troll voodoo, I smashed the doll, and then came back to check the people in Silvermoon City, and found that this maid was unconscious, so I guessed that she was controlled by the voodoo of the troll clan." ”
With that, he motioned for the guards to drag the maid down, and then to the Lotherma in front of him. Theron said: "Your Highness, as for how this maid controls voodoo and destroys the runes, you can probably ask clearly when this maid wakes up." ”
Lotherma. Theron nodded.
One of the council members sitting next to him stood up and said to the people in the hall, "Everyone, this is not the time to discuss how the runes were destroyed, if it is really the trolls who destroy the runes, then war is imminent!" ”
One of the people sitting next to him chimed in, "That's right, how to fight the trolls is the most important thing right now. ”
Lotherma. Theron looked at Cynoan and asked, "What do you think?" ”
A rare cloud of sadness appeared on Cynoan's handsome face, and he said, "Our people have already experienced too many wars, but if the trolls attack, we will have to face them. ”
Lotherma. Theron nodded, and then asked, "What do you think are the odds of winning?" ”
Cynoan shook his head: "Without the magic barrier, we would have lost our natural protective barrier. He raised his head and said seriously, "I don't have a chance of winning." ”
As soon as these words came out, the entire council hall was in an uproar.
But I know he's telling the truth.
Yes, it's true, the ancient trolls, who once ruled most of the land of the continent of Lordaeron, this is by no means accidental, but they are strong enough! The Amani tribe in Zuaman is the sworn enemy of the High Elves, and if I remember correctly, many terrible wars are coming.
While everyone was discussing the countermeasures to meet the battle, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps, and a dusty guard ran in.
"Your Highness! Trolls have suddenly attacked the Sunset Sentry! Our army is annihilated! The report resounded throughout the hall with a crying voice.
"What!" Several lawmakers came up at about the same time.
Why is this happening? I'm also a little surprised, even without the protection of the Yongge Rune Enchantment, the High Elves with magic shouldn't be so vulnerable.
Lotherma. As if Theron had guessed all this, he slowly stood up and said to Cynoan, "Let all your subjects retreat to Silvermoon City, summon all the magicians, and seal the gates." ”
"Yes, Your Highness!" As he left, Cynoan glanced at Belea, who was standing in the distance.
Belia frowned, looking at him.
Lotherma. Theron naturally saw the stares of the two of them meet, so he patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, looked at his daughter again, and said, "The trolls are coming, you must be careful." ”
Cynoan nodded, and walked out of the door of the council hall without looking back.
I looked at his departing back, and Cynoan was a knight, and his mount was a white horse, and the red totem on the saddle was a little glaring.
It was only when I stepped on the horse that Xenoan noticed my gaze.
But he didn't hesitate in the slightest.
"Drive!" He tugged the reins.
Immediately they all followed the hooves of his horses and ran to the gates.
All that remained in my eyes was the pure white cloak.
"Don't look at it, if you look at it again, my brother won't look back."
Severn's voice suddenly rang in my ears.
Startled, I turned my head and explained, "I...... I just ...... "I'm just worried because trolls are really not easy opponents to deal with."
But Severn didn't seem to care too much, and covered my mouth with his hand.
whispered in my ear: "You should thank me now for clearing your name and saving you." ”
"Thank you, but," I looked at him with some confusion, "but why are you lying?" ”
Saiwen seemed to be amused by this sentence, and said a little angrily and funny: "I lied? If you say you've been to the place where the Yongge Rune is ticking, and you've touched it with your hand, guess what? ”
"What will happen?" I blinked incomprehensibly.
Saiwen said angrily: "What will happen? You'll be caught as a spy! Thrown into jail! What do you say? Are you an idiot? ”
I was still puzzled and asked, "I did touch it, but is it possible that it will explode if I touch it?" ”
Saiwen stared at me with an expression that was simply infuriated, and scolded, "How could I save such a fool as you!" ”
