Chapter 365: Corrosion

Renaud woke up from his sleep, and he opened his eyes tiredly to look at the dark ceiling. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Ever since the battle of Stratholme, he had been having nightmares from time to time. In the dream, he was very dissatisfied with what his father had done, and he fought against his father, and even moved his hand against him.

With great difficulty, he pulled his arm from the quilt and touched his forehead. There was a towel wet with water there, and the forehead under the towel was still hot as always, and his cold hadn't healed yet?

"Ahem, ahem, ahem"

An unbearable itching sensation from his throat made Renault cough violently. It wasn't until the feeling subsided that Renault felt better.

The heat in his throat seemed to be a fire, which made Renault extremely uncomfortable. He licked his lips and noticed that the skin on it had become dead from dryness.

He moved his head weakly and looked at the cup of tea on the low bedside table.

He wanted to drink water.

Renault, who was lying on the bed, tried to use the strength of his arms to lift his body up, and then picked up the cup of tea there and drank it well. However, Renault, who was deeply affected by the cold, found that he could not even make these movements.

"Water..."

Renault shouted in a staccato voice in the empty room. However, no one responded to him, and the room was silent. Only on the bedside table, the flame of the candle kept flickering.

"Water! ...”

Renault accentuated his tone and shouted towards the door. The movement caused him to cough violently again.

Just as he was coughing, someone pushed open the door and walked in.

He sat down on the chair next to the bed and asked Renault, who had a pained expression, "Kid, what do you need?!" ”

"I want to drink water." Renault lay weakly on the bed, and he looked half-open at the person beside the bed, it was the Grand Commander Dassault Khan.

The Grand Commander picked up the tea on the table, then held the teacup in his right hand and held the back of his head with his left hand, feeding him tea.

Seeing Renault drinking tea like a thirsty fish, Grand Commander Dassault Khan steadied Renault, "Come on, soon your cold will be cured." Soon I will be able to go out with the first regiment to exterminate the undead as before. ”

After drinking the tea from the cup in one gulp, Renaud continued to lie on the bed, sweat soaking his pillow.

The Grand Commander Dassault Khan looked at Renault with a distressed face, "A young man who is alive and well, but now he has become like this. Alas, let me say that this is all your father's reason. ”

Hearing this, Renault, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes, and he looked at Dassault Khan excitedly as if he had been affirmed by others.

"I'm right, you're such an excellent boy, why doesn't your father look down on you?" Dassault Khan sighed, "I don't understand. ”

"Grand Commander, are you serious?" Renault's face flushed with excitement, and he grabbed the Grand Commander's hands tightly.

"Yes, I think you should be the next leader of our crusaders!" Dassault Khan said with a look of certainty, "This is the moment when God has chosen you, and it will come soon." ”

"But what do you want me to do?" Renaud closed his eyes and said weakly, "My father, he..."

"Listen to me, child, it has to be. You're a natural leader, Renaud. Someone like you should be in a position of influence. For example," Dassault Khan stopped talking, and he thought for a moment and said, "the newly formed Crusader Eastern Theater Commander? Or the new leader of the Crusaders. ”

"Actually, I've told Alexander all this," Dassault Khan sighed, looking at Renault, who was looking nervously at him with open eyes.

"What did my father say?" Renault looked at Dassault Khan with some trepidation.

"What did the Great Lord answer? He said, you are a loyal warrior and that's it! Dassault Khan snorted coldly, "A warrior! Renault, a casual one! That's what he thinks of you. ”

Renaud closed his eyes in pain, his face full of disappointment. He felt like his heart was completely engulfed in darkness. The excited blood seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water all of a sudden.

Under the quilt, Renault's hands were clenched tightly, combined with his father's attitude towards him, Renault couldn't help but complain to Dassault Khan.

"I have proven myself to my father time and time again. It's just that he has been treating Dalyan differently, and I have been very bored in my heart, what can I do? ”

"He's always talking on paper, and he's always doing stupid and unquestionable things," Renault grumbled, and soon he thought of Locke, and couldn't help but add, "Look at what he does to Locke, I really can't imagine that as his son, I'm not as good as the son of his former subordinates." ”

"He can talk to Locke for a long time, but when he faces me, he can only reprimand and scold!" The expression on Renault's face was slightly distorted, "Sometimes I wonder if Locke is his illegitimate child!" And I'm not his son! ”

"Well, I also think so, the Great Lord did go too far." Dassault Khan nodded, his eyes rolling and said, "Compared to Locke, I think you are better than him." Your future should be bigger than his. ”

"What's the use of talking about that now?" Renaud closed his eyes and said with some indignation, "He is now my boss, the deputy commander of our crusaders, and the commander of the Southern Theater of Operations. ”

"And me?" Renaud sighed and didn't continue. If it weren't for Dassault Khan's initiative to push him to the position of commander of the First Army, he would still be a major and deputy commander.

"No, no, no, you can't just let that go down." Dassault Khan hurriedly cheered him up, "A person with leadership qualities like you will definitely become the greatest paladin of our crusaders and even the whole of Lordaeron." ”

"I hope so." Renault closed his eyes tiredly, "I'm sorry, Grand Commander. I want to take a break, my head hurts. ”

"Oh, sleep, kid. Call me if you have something, I'll wait outside for your news. Dassault Khan smiled at him, turned and walked out of the room.

As they left the room, Dassault Khan's face darkened.

He turned his head to look at the room behind him, and said with a sneer, "Sure enough, it's a guy with a dark soul!" Well, that's it. ”

"I will slowly dig out all the dark side in your heart. You will slowly step into the dark path that I have woven for you. You may wake up, but you will find that you will never go back at that time! ”
