Chapter 768: Transformation
In Lordaeron's folk and even high society, rumors have been circulating that Locke is the child of the Light. After all, the time for His Majesty's rise was too fast, so fast that the nobles secretly smacked their tongues when they looked back on the past.
It was as if he had come to save the kingdom, knowing what was to come, and everything he did was like the Light guiding him. He can always influence others with words that are extremely self-contained, and without waiting for others to question him, everything he says is fulfilled one by one, which is really not clear.
As the great nobles and ministers of justice under Locke, Mormont and Berg naturally did not suspect Locke. They were amazed that there was a world beyond this world, and even they were described by Locke as a world beyond this planet full of yearning. Compared to what happened in Azeroth, it slowly faded.
Wouldn't it be a very pleasant thing for some alliance, what tribe, what natural disaster undead, to directly occupy a planet when the time comes?
What the two of them didn't notice was that they didn't have the same worries about the demons that Locke had said before.
The two were momentarily shocked by the scene depicted by Locke, and they did not slow down for a long time. It wasn't until the carriage drove into Dragon Castle that the shock of the carriage to a halt woke the two of them up.
The Imperial Administration of the Outer Court of the Dragon Castle is still bustling with activity, with countless young nobles and officials from the lower classes shuttling between various departments with their own work.
Like a spread petal, the Prime Minister's Office is at the foot of the hill in the Inner Court. The other departments are separated from the left and right, and they are arranged in order. In the middle of these departments, in the square, the large throne room radiates to the surrounding positive and negative departments, while the Imperial Council Hall is located next to the throne room, at the rear of it.
Just like tradition, these buildings are carved with round minarets and intricate ornamentations, just like the Lordaeron of the past. A stone-topped corridor of stone and magic sculptures connects the central building with other departments, and beyond the corridor is a sea of grass and flowers.
Five steps and one sentry, ten steps and one post, and the patrols that pass by from time to time all show that this place is heavily guarded. If you have the ability here, you will also find that in the sky above the Dragon Castle, there are layers of blue films floating in the wind, which appear from all corners of the Dragon Castle, entangled and fly into the sky to protect the sky of the Dragon Castle. On the endless sea outside the seaside gardens on the side of the Dragon Castle, the Navy's clippers would always be cruising there. From time to time, there will also be a roar in the sky, and the latest Apache gunship of the Air Force will appear. In the sky above Dragon Castle, the formation of dwarven griffin knights replaced the patrol of this airspace, and the dwarves of Eagle's Nest Mountain were quite familiar with this.
"Alas," Berg let out a long sigh and looked at the scene in front of him, and he sighed for a long time before he said, "It's not easy, it's really not easy..."
Locke is also very proud, from the verge of extinction to today's strong rise, this step by step is really tiring.
But it's worth it!
Mormont didn't feel so much about this, he had not been in Iva for a long time, and he didn't have a deep sense of ownership of the land.
"Don't be emotional, there will be things that will surprise you in the future. If the pattern is so small, then what will happen in the future? Saying that, Locke still responded proudly, "Go to work, don't think about being lazy, or I'll deduct your salary!" ”
Mormont laughed and said deliberately, "Fortunately, Your Majesty gives you a lot of salary, otherwise I wouldn't have worked!" ”
After a few words, Locke sent the two back to his official office, hesitated in place for a while, turned to Mario, the captain of the imperial guard, and said, "Tell the queen that I need to help the cabinet deal with government affairs, and I won't go back to the inner court to rest tonight." ”
As he strode towards the Ministry of the Interior's office, Locke's mind was on Sally at the Tyrisfard Abbey. I don't know how she is doing there, whether the work of the Holy Light Church will be too busy, whether it will affect the child in the womb, whether the belly is about to show her pregnancy after a month and a half...
Locke thinks a lot, but after becoming a kingdom, he finds that he is less daring than before, and he does not have the courage to not care about other people's opinions in the past. If this was before, I would definitely have to use the portal to see her, but now I am hesitant...
Is this called maturity? Or is it forced by the pressure of the world?
Then, Locke thought that Norris would not overreact in this matter, but it turned out to be a big drop in Locke's mind... Norris, a tsundere elf, is rarely interested in having a child. She asked herself to come to her side and help her build the Ministry of the Interior shelf.
Although Locke repeatedly said that she was just an adult, and the two of them had been coming to Japan for a long time, Nolis kept telling Locke to come and live with her when he was fine.
Thinking of this, Locke knocked his head a little depressed...
Regret shouldn't have been!
In order to satisfy his own selfish desires, he provoked so many women...
Caring about that ignores this, although they don't say it, but the loss in their hearts is inevitable. If only it were heartless like Bridget... At least it makes me feel less guilty...
Locke's thoughts were full of things about the love of his children, and for a while it was like entering the mode of a great sage...
"Your Majesty, what do you want?"
Bridget's strange voice, which suddenly penetrated into his ears, made Locke froze for a moment, and he looked up to see the woman he had just thought of looking at him with a smile.
"I'm thinking of you, do you believe it?" Locke blurted out, then looked at the guards around him with a little embarrassment, and realized that they were more than ten yards away from him...
"I don't believe it! You have to show it. Bridget was still wearing red general armor, standing in front of Locke.
Without answering her words, Locke smiled and asked, "Do you also work in this armor in the Ministry of Defense?" ”
Bridget looked at the armor in confusion, and then asked puzzled, "Is there anything wrong with this?" Isn't it normal that the Ministry of Defense is full of soldiers? ”
Locke smiled and put his hands behind his back and sent out an invitation, "Come with me in the garden?" ”
"It's an honor!" Bridget responded happily.
Night had come, and the magic lanterns in the garden slowly lit up as they passed, illuminating the road ahead, and the chirping of insects echoed in the silent garden.
"Thank you Duke Abydis for me, really. I began to think that he would reject me and resist my reforms. ”
Speaking of this, Locke was also a little ashamed, and he beckoned old Abidis back from the hands of Tyre, and let him break away from his position as commander of the garrison there to take up the post of Minister of Defense. Originally, Locke was not optimistic about this request, but he didn't expect that he just mentioned it to Bridget, and the latter agreed to Locke.
As a result, before he could see old Abidis, Bridget had already made sense of him.
Bridget glanced at him, then snuck up on him and pinched him hard. "No, it's a waste of my tongue. You don't know how much that stubborn old man wants to stay in the army. ”
"Huh!" Bridget thought of something and said with a smile, "I'll just tell him, you're so much better than Tyrosus that he doesn't even dare to face Locke." Hearing this, he hesitated for a long time before deciding to let him think about it. ”
There was no one around, and it was quiet, and Locke took the opportunity to take her hand and hold it in the palm of his hand.
Although Bridget said it lightly, Locke knew that she must have put a lot of effort into it. Moreover, her sacrifice to herself may be the real reason for the old Abidis to give up the resistance. One can imagine the feeling of General Abydis handing over the army of the Hand of Tyr that he had built to Locke. Locke had to admit that General Alfred Abydis was the purest paladin. He was able to stick to the bottom line of the paladin in the face of huge interests, and he was not blinded by interests, and resolutely returned to the reborn Lordaeron!
In contrast, Baron Tyrosus was compared to ... At least he doesn't have the courage to face me now, not even for the coronation.
"Thank you." Locke said sincerely, "Thank you." ”
"Our relationship, thank you..."Bridget laughed, although she said so, she still wiped the corner of her eye very secretly, and Locke didn't see it.
"I'm leaving..."
"I know."
"I'm heading to the Stormwind Kingdom."
"I understand."
"You don't want to say something?"
"It's all for Lordaeron, for our future, what's there to say?"
Looking up at the night sky with only blue children, Locke let out a long sigh, and the emotion in his heart blocked his chest, as if he was holding a sulk.
Why couldn't I control my lower body in the first place...
Emotional debts, the most difficult to repay...
endured and endured, and finally Locke hugged Bridget beside him in his arms.
"I'm sorry," Locke muttered, hugging her tightly despite the discomfort she was wearing and uncomfortable to hold.
"It's not your fault, I like you, it's my freedom, my own choice, that's what I said from the beginning." Bridget let him hold her, and she enjoyed Locke's hug and said, "Now, don't talk." Let me enjoy this moment of tranquility. ”
There was no one around, and the imperial guards disappeared as far as Locke's eyes could see, leaving only the growing sound of insects around them...
Locke gritted his teeth, fighting the distance in his heart, and finally he made a decision.
"I heard that Duke Abydis still doesn't understand the management of the military academy under him? As a founder, I happen to be a little immature suggestion..."
Hearing this, Bridget got out of Locke's arms!
Looking up at Locke in surprise, she pulled Locke towards the opposite place with a ruddy face, "For your immature advice, I can't wait to know the answer!" ”
"You know what! I've been exhausted by all this management work lately!! ”
Ms. Bai slowly appeared in this sky, and the afterglow illuminated every corner of Dragon Castle...
