39. The world line is no longer the same

39. The end of the semester is so troublesome

The departure of the Admiral, the discussion of the expeditionary force, and the arrangements of Terenus for his lords, all of these things, although very important, Arthas did not listen to them at all. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info echoed in his mind, only one sentence.

Gianna...... Didn't get born? ”

Although I know that this world has changed a lot, ......

When she returned to this world, Gianna should have been born for a long time, and no matter how much she tossed, she shouldn't be able to affect her. Arthas had always believed in this, but the truth told him that the cost of this reincarnation was greater than he imagined.

From the moment the Admiral left the house, Arthas lost the ability to perceive his surroundings, and the others around him seemed to have a heated discussion afterwards, but Arthas was completely out of his mind. He just waited for the discussion to end, and was carried into the room unconscious, and then sat on the bed like that, until the sun set in the west, and then came to his senses.

"Looks like I've come to my senses," Esney's cold voice rang out at the first moment, and Arthas looked up to see the other party sitting on the edge of the bed, reading a hardcover book in the light of the setting sun, "How do you feel now, Your Highness?" ”

"It's not good...... Alsace felt the emptiness in his heart, and his conscious expression should be very strange, "why are you here?" ”

"None of the people who have heard about the plans of the expeditionary force have been able to get out of the gates of the royal city," Esney put down the book in his hand and brought Arthas a cup of hot water, "after all, it is an extremely secret matter, so I will disturb here." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, whatever," Arthas gratefully took the hot water and took a sip, "Anyway, don't you wonder why I'm like that?" ”

"If Your Highness wants to say something, you will naturally say it," Esni, who had also poured himself a glass of water, sat back in his position just now, "Rather, doesn't Your Highness care about the plans of the expeditionary force at all?" ”

"I'm concerned, tell me about it."

The expedition organized by Khadgar was not much different from what Arthas remembered.

Tulayan, Khadgar, Aurelia Windranger, Danas Thorbein, and Kudran Hammer were the five main commanders of the expeditionary force, as they remembered. And the main component of the army is still the alliance of the six kingdoms plus a little elf ranger troops.

However, this time the coalition has an additional naval unit.

"Has the Admiral finally decided to go to that shattered land?" Arthas didn't know what kind of mood he was feeling, "It seems that the death of his only son before hit him really hard. ”

"But Your Excellency Admiral's arrival will deal a greater blow to my two brothers," Esni said, "Your Highness probably doesn't know yet, because the Admiral has made such a fuss, and all the heirs of the nobles have been completely eliminated from the military system today." The reason is, of course, to protect the inheritance of bloodline. ”

“…… It's true, but there's always hope to stay, right? ”

"Yes, yes, but as a condition of moderation, all the noble heirs will begin training with the Royal Knights of Lordaeron at the age of fifteen, and will not be able to join the army until three years later."

"What's that?"

"The newly founded Knights," Esni said, "the only member of the Knights is my eldest brother. ”

"Duke Mograini always dares to be the first and admires him," Alsace laughed, "but does that mean that we will soon be able to meet Renault and Darien?" ”

"Those two people, whether you see them or not, are the same," Esney's rare interest fell, "just two fools." ”

“……”

There was no answer, and Arthas couldn't think of anything for a while, so the room instantly fell silent again. And the loss of foreign distractions, the feeling of emptiness returned, and Arthas was so irritated that in a matter of seconds, he involuntarily got up and began to wander around the house meaninglessly.

"Why don't we run out and play?"

Suddenly, Esney's words pinned Arthas's footsteps, he turned around suddenly, looked at Esney, who seemed to be still paying attention to the book in his hand, and asked a little dazedly, "Are you such a character?" ”

"No, but you think maybe it's better to go out?" Esney once again put down the book in his hand that had not yet turned a few pages, "After all...... I haven't seen what orcs look like, so I wanted to see them. ”

"Orcs, ......"

Arthas recalls that summer night, when he and Gianna were on their way to Tunhold Castle, two young men, out of curiosity and a little rebellious in Arthas, secretly ran to a shelter without others noticing. It was the first time he had seen orcs, but they only disgusted him at the time. On the contrary, the same picture made Gianna realize that orcs are also intelligent creatures like humans.

"The orcs are not very good-looking now," Arthas said truthfully, looking at the girl in front of him, "not only are they not as fierce as they were in war, but they have also become dirty under the conditions of the shelter. So, it's not a good place to go out. ”

"Okay then......" didn't insist, Esney put the book in front of him, just in the middle of his nose, "So how about this plan?" ”

On the cover facing Arthas, the words "Darkmoon Circus" shone golden, like the light in a girl's eyes.

"Well," Arthas felt his mood suddenly improve, "just right, I remember that this circus happened to be near the royal capital. ”

The Darkmoon Circus is a fantastic group that is active in various parts of Azeroth, and its members are all strange, including almost all the intelligent races that exist on Azeroth, always appearing at the gates of the big city at a fixed time, and never seem to be worried about financial problems.

To be honest, even in the days of the Lich King, Arthas was a little curious about what this circus was like, but it was a pity that the circus did not do business with the Scourge Legion, so he could only regret it. Now that Arthas is back in the past, now that he has the opportunity and someone else suggests, he naturally doesn't mind experiencing it.

The discussion was decided, and the two men immediately changed their clothes, and then swaggered out of the royal city, leaving the main gate along the flower-lined road, and Arthas immediately saw the very distinctive sign of big eyes at the bottom of the slope.

"Speaking of which, I always think that this sign should appear in the crater......

Complaining about the poisonous radio waves that came from the unknown world, Arthas saw an unexpected, but unusually well-matched, figure in front of the circus gate.

"Bishop Richelieu?"

I don't know why, it's just that the white-haired woman in black trembled a little, then turned her head a little stiffly, looked at Arthas and Esni who came together, and smiled a little stiffly: "Oh, two are good." ”

"Are you here to play?" Arthas looked at the other party's embarrassed appearance, and naturally felt that the other party was doing something that was very in line with the appearance setting, "I heard that this place is very popular, and it looks very popular with adults." ”

“…… I thank you for your kindness, but I don't know why I'm even more angry," the cardinal, who weighs no more than 100, has a visibly bulging forehead, "but I'm really not here to play, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me in front of the gate." ”

Makes sense!

"Huh? Why is that? ”

"Ahem, is that ......?"

"Hahaha, it's me winning again!"

A very bold laugh came from inside, and Arthas looked at the one-meter-three cardinal who covered his face and sighed in lamentation, but he waited a few seconds before realizing that this voice was also familiar.

"It's the half-elf."

"Oh, yes, the head of the Shadow of the Sun," Arthas reached out for a hammer, then leaned forward to look, "What's that, Steam Tank?" ”

"It's probably a new game," Richelieu said with a "troublesome" expression, "Ah, she's been playing in it for a long time, and it's getting dark, don't the elves sleep?" ”

"Well, actually, I've heard that the elves are night owls because of the good lighting effect of the elves' magic lamps."

"night owl," Richelieu roared, "I don't share the sky with night owls!" ”

"The latest achievement of the church is that man grows while he sleeps."

Listening to Eisni's whispered reminder, Arthas expressed sympathy for the bishop in front of him very seriously in his heart, and then decided not to remind the other party that he was already past the age of his body.

"No, I'm going to drag that guy out."

As if sensing that it was useless to complain like this, Richelieu reached out and rolled his sleeve, turned and walked into the door of the Darkmoon Circus step by step, and then listened to the clattering of chickens and dogs inside, and the grizzled cardinal just dragged back with a burning-eyed but well-built half-elf.

"Ah, why are you dragging me out, it's still far from sleeping!"

The half-elf who was forcibly ended in the game had apparently not had enough of it, so much so that even Richelieu, the battlefield madman who faced strange powers, maintained his dignity as a player. However, it is obvious that this dignity is of little use to the one-meter-three monster girl, who just uses one foot to mine a complete footprint on the stone brick road in front of her, and suppresses the player's poor dignity.

"Well, as a lady, I have decided to have a friendly and peaceful exchange with you," the half-elf chose a decent negotiation in front of the completely powdered stone bricks, "Oh, isn't this His Highness Arthas and our lovely puppeteer?" Could it be that you are looking for something with me? ”

Shake your head and shake your head.

"I'm going back to rest," Richelieu viciously shattered the other man's illusions, "Don't be verbose now, come back with me at once, understand?" ”

"Uh...... Well, after all, I'm a mercenary with no status," he looked helplessly at the two imps next to him, the half-elf raised his hands and chose to cooperate obediently, "But you go to bed so early, could it be that you are really a ...... Eh, I told you that if you want to do it, I'm not afraid of you! ”

Watching the two of them fight and walk away, both Arthas and Esney made a look of hope - even if the other party was actually just going up a hill to enter the rhythm of the capital, but the two of them were stunned to make a feeling of sending someone to the execution ground.

"It's so hard......"

"yes, it's hard......"
