If you can't properly resolve the gloom in your heart, sooner or later you will be driven crazy by yourself.

At least the chief of the guard is in and Natalie. After talking to Céline, she thought so.

Contrary to what he had thought, this potion merchant disguised as a man was not some archmage in a low-key disguise, but a priest who had once believed in the Light.

Once.

Before Stormwind was breached by the orcs, Natalie was already a Bishop's Reserve Priest. Anduin. When Lothar fled north, she couldn't let go of the wounded who needed her care, and she couldn't let go of the civilians of Stormwind who were shouting her name, so she stayed.

However, without the protection of the lord and the army, the human life left behind in the Elwyn Forest was miserable. The encirclement and suppression of the orcs and the lack of living materials have seriously tormented the human victims in the area occupied by the orcs.

In the entire Stormwind Kingdom, only Lakeside Town and the Western Wilds are still scattered rebels, and those towns that rely on Stormwind City for survival and development are only rubble and scorched earth under the tyranny of the orcs.

Sir Solomon of Lakeside ordered the bridge to the Burning Plains to be blown up, and the special terrain turned Lakeside into an island in the human world. The remoteness and desolation of the western wilderness distracted orcs.

It's not so much that these resisters are composing a song of resistance history that can be sung and cried, but that they are let go by the orcs. For in the far north, the kingdoms of Lordaeron and Anduin. The alliance of Lothar is fighting to the death with the tribes.

However, there are still some people who are powerless to resist and can only choose to escape, and can only use wild vegetables and plant roots to feed their stomachs.

Natalie is the titular leader of such a refugee camp hidden deep in the mountains.

"At Alvin, we lack everything. The lakeside town is trapped in a corner. In the Wild West, humans are more terrifying than orcs. There were some scattered settlements in the Twilight Forest, but the areas of the forest suitable for cultivation had been destroyed by the orcs, and the rest of the land could not be fed by farming. ”

"And where do you stay?"

After asking, the chief guard found himself asking an idiotic question.

But Natalie paused, and answered the chief of the guard in general terms.

"In the mountains east of the East Valley Lumberyard. The trees that could be used were cut down, and the orcs were not interested in where they came after a few visits, so we settled down for the time being. ”

"Well, your history of blood and tears almost touched me, but that's not why I accompanied you to the Sea of Ashes. Unless you tell me the truth. ”

It's not that the head of the guard hasn't seen a woman's brains, and he won't be swayed at will because of the other party's soft-spoken pleading.

A priest left his camp for more than two months and ran thousands of miles away to the Scorching Canyon and the Black Iron Dwarves to trade the much-needed supplies of wartime - healing potions.

This would have been unreasonable.

If the woman who calls herself Natalie can make it to the end, it means she's not a weakling.

Therefore, asking for help at this moment is even more unreasonable.

"Okay, you make an offer, aren't you mercenaries? I made a lot of money from this transaction, and I can afford to hire a few people. ”

Seeing that it was useless to sell pity, Natalie put away the faint sadness on her face, and her tone became stiff again.

"It's not about money, that broken place in the Sea of Ashes is a forbidden area for death, you haven't been to that ghost place and don't know ......"

"I know, if I don't know, why am I chewing my tongue with you here."

Natalie's words left the chief guard speechless.

"Let me tell you the truth, a traitor stole our things and wanted to flee to the north, but he encountered an orc patrol and had no choice but to flee into the sea of ashes. That thing is important to me, to us, and I have to get it back. ”

"Ha, oh my God, what's the difference between looking for something in the Sea of Ashes and looking for a needle in a haystack?!"

The chief guard didn't want to talk any further, and prepared to get up and leave.

"I can feel it. As long as the thing is within three kilometers of me, I can sense it. ”

Natalie said.

"I'm sorry, but I still can't ......"

"You're a soldier!"

The chief guard suddenly became alert, and his muscles tightened under his lazy expression.

"Just as you can tell I'm a woman, I can tell at a glance that you're a soldier. You are a wonderful soldier, a man of honor, just like those around His Majesty Lane. Although you and your men pretend to be down-and-out deserters, mercenaries who fight for their lives, forgive me for being blunt, you have never seen what a real rout looks like. Because you still have honor in your hearts and hope in your eyes, your words and deeds are different from those real lost dogs. ”

With that, Natalie paused and looked at the chief guard quietly.

"Woman, who the hell are you?"

The chief of the guard exuded a terrifying majesty, as if he would burst out and hurt people if he disagreed.

"Natalie. Céline, Stormwind almost became the bishop's priest. ”

The woman's expression remained indifferent.

"I don't know what you're hiding, or hiding something, but I don't believe a word of what you say."

The head guard almost gritted his teeth and said that he wanted to force Natalie to waver in this way.

"Everyone has their own secrets, doesn't they? If you're willing to take my money, then we don't have to talk so awkwardly and stiffly now. ”

Eventually, the chief guard sat back across from Natalie.

"Why did you find me?"

"Because you, or rather, you can be trusted."

"Ha, ha, ha."

After three exaggerated sneers, the chief guard didn't say a word.

"I didn't mean to joke or lie to you. I don't know who you're serving, but the orcs are our common enemy, you can't deny that. ”

"Uh-huh."

The chief of the guard coped noncommittally.

"What I'm looking for is essential to fight the orc horde, even Anduin. Sir Lothar is there and he will help me as well. ”

"How do you want me to believe you when the head of a refugee camp is looking for something that has risen to the level of human safety? Natalie. Serene almost Miss Bishop. ”

The chief of the guard almost decided that the woman in front of him was lying all the time.

"I've heard you say you're here at Mrs. Morgan's request, aren't you?"

Natalie said suddenly.

"Then you can check with Mrs. Morgan, I can believe it."

"Even if it is confirmed, it only proves that Natalie. Celine can be trusted, and how do you prove that you are Natalie. Céline? ”

The chief guard suddenly felt that the woman was not lying, but trying to cover something.

Sighing softly, Natalie stretched out her left hand and removed her black leather gloves, revealing her fair, calloused hands.

"May the Light bless you."

A small ball of light condensed in Natalie's hand, and she slowly pushed the ball of light onto the head of the guard.

The power of the light washed the body of the chief of the guard, leaving him comfortable.

This woman is a priest.

But the strength is obviously not very good.

The chief of the guard compared Natalie to his own king, and thought ill-intentionedly.

Sure enough, I'm the first in Azeroth, the Great Alterac Holy Light. (To be continued.) )
