185 Is this a secret?
Thea listened quietly to Ferdin, realizing that Sally had apparently come for some purpose, and that Ferdin's support was apparently behind her. ()
Ferdin's obviously didn't mean to hide it from Thea. He threw out a bombshell news. "In fact...... Sally came this time to hide the blood, she hoped to meet the leader of the human reinforcements. ”
Thea was stunned by the news. But she quickly understood what Fording meant. The Scarlet Crusaders have stopped cooperating with Silver Dawn in the Plaguelands, and are in a state of helplessness. Fanatics don't do it. But anyone with a modicum of sanity will know how bad this situation is. Sally is clearly aware of this. And she has no more choice, among the coalition forces that are about to come to the plague lands, only human reinforcements can barely be compatible with the Scarlet Crusade.
"So, she's planning to work with human reinforcements?" Shia spoke her assumptions.
Fording nodded. "Silver Dawn has officially partnered with various races such as the Forsaken, the Blood Elves, and the Orcs. And there are also different races like you, you, who are personally involved in the Silver Dawn's common struggle to destroy the Lich King. So, I knew in my heart that the Scarlet Crusaders would never be able to work with such a multi-racial gathering of the Forgotten, especially the Silver Dawn. So, if the Scarlet Crusaders were hoping to find an ally, they had no choice but humans. ”
"Now Dasohan and Abydis are both radicals who tend to rely on their own strength to fight the Lich King independently. Sally, on the other hand, is a moderate who is still hoping to find allies to work with. Whether public or private, I hope that Sally will have a good conversation with the representatives of the human race this time, and only then will there be a glimmer of hope for the Scarlet Crusade. ”
"That'...... Uncle Fordin, do you know who the leading representative of the human race is this time? Thea asked, curiously.
Ferding touched his chin. "The Kingdom of Man takes this coalition operation very seriously. Therefore, the representatives sent are very powerful front-line figures, and you may have heard of the Grand Duke of the Human Kingdom of Azeroth, Bervar. Vortagan. ”
Shia was almost shocked by the news!!
Boval! Bolval is coming here too?!
"What's wrong. Shia? Thea's anomaly surprised Ferdin.
Xia looked down, her expression tangled. Until the moment before hearing the news, she was hesitant to know whether she should confide in Fordin. After all, her identity is too important, and if she says it rashly, she doesn't dare to predict what the consequences will be. [A lot of good] but if you don't talk about it now...... Sally might be able to perfunctory the past, after all, Sally didn't know her well, and Sally probably thought it was impossible. But in the face of Bolval, can she be as calm and cold as she is with Sally, and pretend to turn a blind eye? Bolval didn't know anything about her dozens or hundreds of times better than Sally. Will she be able to show no flaws in front of Bolvar?
She couldn't have hesitated any longer. If it's really Bolval. Then she had to need someone to help her not be recognized. And now, Xia gritted her teeth, she could only choose to believe in Ferdin's noble character and chivalric spirit. What's more. At the moment, there was no one other than Ferdin, who was reliable and capable of helping her.
Xia said with difficulty: "Uncle Ferdin...... Actually, there's one more thing. During the time I was missing, I ...... Got my past identity and memories back. ”
"Oh." Thea's cautiousness and the unusual attitude she had seen when she had heard of Bolval had made Fording feel a little strange in his heart. But he didn't interrupt Thea. Just quietly waiting for the following.
"I've been reluctant to admit it in person...... Because it's too big. Thea took a slow, deep breath. Then he closed his eyes and spit out the secret with the air in his lungs. "I was the queen of the kingdom of Azeroth and the wife of Varian. Irelian. Ureon! ”
"Smack!" Hearing this, Ferding accidentally crushed the cup in his hand. Fragments of cups mixed with water slipped from his hands and all over the table, and he didn't even know it.
For a moment there was a dead silence in the room, except for the ticking sound of water droplets hitting the table.
It took a long time for Ferding to seem to digest the astonishing news. He spoke dryly, "Thea...... You ......"
Although I know that since Xia has brought it up so cautiously, her identity before her death must be extraordinary. But Old Furding never expected such a shocking identity. reminds me of the "Tiffin" blurted out by Sally. Ferding almost immediately believed Shia's words. However, he immediately realized the importance of this secret. If this news leaks out, then the entire human kingdom, no, the entire continent will cause an uproar because of this. Just thinking about it, Fording shuddered. The Queen of Humanity - became the Forsaken. How many articles can this news make people who have a heart!!
Sally's blurted out "Tiffin" just now sounded the alarm for Old Ferdin. She hurriedly asked, "That was just ...... Do you think Sally recognises you? ”
Xia thought about it carefully and analyzed carefully: "Not necessarily, I didn't know her very well before. Besides, she wouldn't have believed that Tiffin would become the Forsaken, so she didn't bother with these things anymore, did she? No matter what she guessed, I wouldn't admit it anyway. ”
Fording thought for a moment and nodded. But it raises a problem that makes it more difficult for Sia to face.
"What about Bolval?"
Thea was silent for a long time before she said, "I don't know. ”
Fording frowned in annoyance. "In that case, it's no joke. Everyone knows Stormwind's Grand Duke Boval. Vortagan was once Queen Tiffin's guardian knight. If Berval meets you...... He can recognize you by the pact you have made in your soul alone. ”
"If that's it!" Xia hurriedly said, "Uncle, don't worry, that contract ...... has been erased. ”
"Erased?" Fordin exclaimed in disbelief, "That is the Holy Light engraved in the soul, how can it be erased?!! ”
"I don't know exactly how it works. But I'm sure it's been erased. I can guarantee that. "Thea didn't want to talk to Fording about Simon, because it was too complicated. But she knew Isaimon's ability, and since Simon dared to say that he erased it, it was definitely erased.
"In that case, maybe it's a little easier." Fording took a few deep breaths and calmed down before asking. "By the way, who else knows about this - I mean, like me, I've heard you confess your identity yourself."
"The word of humanity...... Only Varian and Gianna ......," Shia said after a moment of reflection. "Anduin doesn't even know."
"Varian knows?! How did he know?! Old Ferding almost jumped up in excitement. He felt that he had not been frightened as much in his life as he had been today. His deepest feeling at the moment was that he felt that his old heart must have opened the Holy Shield Technique, and he was still able to stand firm after hearing the news without any problems.
"Hmm." Thea nodded, "He knows. By chance, we ...... We've already met......"
Listening to Thea's words, Fording fell silent. He didn't ask Shia why he hadn't gone back to Stormwind with Varian. Shia's presence in the Plaguelands now says a lot. And Fordin's own experience taught him that there are many things that cannot be done by one's own preferences as a person in a high position.
"Do you have any plans for now? Human reinforcements should arrive in the next two days. Otherwise, I wouldn't have rushed back with Sally. Fording thought about it, but thought it would be better to ask Thea what he thought.
Thea smiled wryly. "I didn't know what to do. Uncle Fordin, I thought the Plaguelands would be a quiet retreat. But I didn't know they would come. Uncle, there's something else - while General Nathanos of the Forsaken doesn't know my identity, he and General Liadline of the Blood Elves have seen me stay with Varian. I'm worried that with their minds, it's going to be a matter of time before they guess who I am. ”
Furding groaned for a moment. "Don't be afraid. As long as you insist that you are not. There is no real evidence, as far as I know about them. Those two are masters at the top of politics, and they pay attention to not moving, and they are fatal with one blow. With their prudence, they will never publicize this indiscriminately. ”
Ya still had a somewhat confused expression, and Fording smiled. "Although now the Horde and the Alliance have made a brief peace against their common enemy, the Lich King. But this peace itself is fragile and can collapse at the slightest touch. If the tribe reveals your identity at this sensitive moment, this shocking news. Even if it's just for the sake of political positions, Varian will break with them. Do you think that in the absence of huge benefits, the tribe would have the courage to do such a detrimental thing to others and themselves? ”
Thea is also a fan of the authorities, and she has been so worried about the trouble her identity will cause Varian that she has lost her political acumen. After listening to Old Ferdin's analysis, she immediately figured out the joints, and a big stone in her heart fell heavily to the ground.
"Uncle Fordin, you're right. I got into a dead end myself. Thea confessed calmly. But what about Bolval? She bit her lip. You know, he'...... I don't know if I should admit it in front of him......"
Furding was about to say something, only to hear three gun salutes outside.
It was the sound of a cannon salute to greet the Allies.
And the only one scheduled to arrive at this time is ...... Human Alliance. (To be continued)
