Chapter 630: The Man Behind It

The influence of the Holy Light Church is not as good as before, and the Knights of the Silver Hand have not added new members for a long time, not only that, but the entire Holy Light Church and the Knights of the Silver Hand have basically split.

This is so because there is not a consensus among all human kingdoms, and even among the Church of Light.

When the first nobles left Riptide to expand the borders of humanity, the Arathas Empire began to fall apart, and the Light spread throughout the Eastern Kingdoms with its followers.

Seven human kingdoms then appeared on the continent and began to become devout followers of the Light.

During the Second Orc War, King Terenus of Lordaeron united the seven human kingdoms together and formed an alliance. The congregations of Light in each kingdom began to merge until an inter-kingdom Church of Light was formed.

The Church of Light has played a huge and active role in the war against the Orcs. At that time, the archbishop Fao founded the Knights of the Silver Hand, and the knights of the Silver Hand lived up to expectations. In the war against the orcs, the knights took the lead and left an unforgettable impression on everyone.

After the war, the Church of the Light and the Knights of the Silver Hand were highly united under the banner of the alliance led by Terenus, and the Church of the Light everywhere was also unprecedentedly united. The Church of Light and the Knights of the Silver Hand in the kingdoms often receive orders from their headquarters.

But when Lordaeron declined due to the three wars, the country was about to perish, and the headquarters of the Holy Light Church was also devastated, the connection between the Holy Light Churches and with the headquarters of the Holy Light Church of Lordaeron slowly disappeared.

There is a relationship between the lack of information connectivity, the destruction of the headquarters of the Holy Light Church, and the deliberate lack of contact. In addition, Lordaeron was invaded by the Scourge and the whereabouts of the heir to the royal family of Minethil are unknown, and a large number of domestic nobles have migrated to the southern Stormwind Kingdom, and even the dominance of the Alliance, the Church of the Holy Light and the influence of the Knights of the Silver Hand have also shifted to Stormwind City.

Because of the distance between the human kingdoms, coupled with the dilemma of the alliance at that time.... Gilneth broke away from the Alliance because of the Alterac territory, Kurtilas closed off from the Alliance because the Alliance did not rescue their fleet, the Kingdom of Alterac was entrusted by Lordaeron because of collusion with the Orcs, the Wizarding City of Dalaran was destroyed, and Fort Riptide also broke away from the Alliance because of the Alterac territory.

During this time, the Church of Light in various countries gradually became indigenous, and they began to prioritize the development of their own country as their primary goal.

Benedictas, the current Archbishop of the Holy Light Church far away in the Stormwind Kingdom, intends to strengthen the connection of the Holy Light Church, but.... Elsewhere Locke didn't know, but at least Lordaeron wasn't keen on his calling.

The reason Locke was not enthusiastic about his summoning was that he wanted to rebuild the Knights of the Silver Hand, at least the Knights of the Silver Hand. But he doesn't have the right to do so.

In fact, all the Grand Commanders of the Silver Hand since Dassault Khan have not been affirmed by the current Silver Hand headquarters!

Because the Knights of the Silver Hand, who have the authority to do so, are now headquartered in the Northshire Abbey in the Elwyn Forest of the Stormwind Kingdom. All Silver Hand executive orders will be issued from there, and the paladins who come out of there are recognized by the Holy Light Church and the Silver Hand.

That's what the Silver Hand internal documents were known to Locke said. It's just that all the lords and knights in Lordaeron have ignored this rule. After all, this was once the headquarters of the Silver Hand.

When I joined the Silver Hand, I also had relevant information sent there. On the shelf of a study in one of the North County Abbeys, there is a separate scroll with its own information written on it! After all, every paladin is a nobleman! A League of Allegiances and the Sir of His Chosen Allegiance to the King!

How could Locke have such great power? But in fact, he did it anyway!

Because now Iva must have a new Silver Hand blood to join, because the Silver Hand represents hope here!! This is the glorious tradition of the Grand Lord Mograini the Elder, passed down from their time! The knights of the Silver Hand of that era, armed with their weapons held high, rode their horses towards the line of orcs. How similar was that era to the present? Now is the time when the Silver Hand is needed!!

This is the reason why Locke does not want to accept the news from Benedictas, because if he accepts the news, he will always face his own overstepping behavior. If you don't accept it, it means that you can still bury your head in the sand. At least until you're not a king, it's useful

But in the end, Locke still sent someone to respond to Benedictas's message.... If it weren't for the support of the Holy Light Church, and in order not to get into trouble, Locke didn't even want to contact Stormwind.

But a kingdom must always have a Bishop of Light.

And now the bishop ...

Whereas, the previous Bishop of Lordaeron, Ethan Lien, was no longer fit for the position of Bishop of the Light. Locke reported Whiteman's name to Benedictas, and there has been no reply yet.

This is due to the fact that the power of the Church of the Light in Lordaeron has been severely divided, and those who disagree with Locke are either in the Valley of the Hearth, or far away in the Hand of Tyre and the Chapel of the Light's Wish.

"What are you thinking?"

The sudden questioning brought Locke's distant thoughts back to him, and he lowered his gaze from the statue of Terenus.

"How would such a wise and mighty king feel about what I am doing now?"

"Will he be sure of me?"

In the face of Locke's question, Demyteah's smile came to her face like a spring breeze. She spread out her hand, and golden light flowed into her palm.

"Do you say that the Light will approve of my cultivation of the power of the Shadows?"

Locke glanced at her, and he turned to stand on the pulpit, looking at the tall and majestic door of the cathedral in the distance, and did not return to the question of Demethya.

"Obviously, you just have to do what you think is right," Demytia's voice continued to ring in Locke's ears, "everything we say will affect you and make you change your original intentions. Whether this is good or bad no one knows. ”

"Anyone can say a lot, but who can really do it? We are always in the habit of asking others to do this and that. But once it happens to us, we will have a different attitude. ”

This is somewhat similar to Locke's view, but Locke still likes to hear others tell him about his reasoning, but he doesn't easily do what others say.

"As I asked you earlier, will the Light approve of my practice of the power of the Shadows? This question, in my opinion, is clearly not valid. Because the Light does not have a consciousness of its own, it is the belief of countless of us, and we believe that while believing in it, we are constantly affirming ourselves and believing in ourselves, so that our beliefs become stronger. ”

"At the end of the day, it's about believing in yourself..."

"So, our advice is not important. It's you who matters, and if you're determined, you're going to have to go ahead. Demitea still smiled, "Giving up halfway will not only cause disaster for Lordaeron. But the main thing is you, and those behind you..."

When Locke turned his head to look at her in surprise, Demetia smiled and shrugged, "What? Do you think that I, as a great sage, would say such a surprising thing to you? ”

"First and foremost, I am also a human being, and I am not a pure spokesperson of the Light," Demetia said, looking up at the statue of Terenus, "As a Lordaeron, I care about the future of Lordaeron, which does not conflict with my status as a spokesperson of the Light. ”

"When darkness falls, there will always be someone who will lead the people who have fallen into despair. He was as bright as a beacon in the darkness that illuminated the path of all. ”

"It's fate's choice..."

"Hehe," Locke lowered his head with a smile, looking at the blue crusader robe on his body, Locke subconsciously touched it, "You say this, it will make me hesitate even more." ”

"Then don't be in a hurry to make any decisions that will have a huge impact at this crusade reshuffle." Demithia suddenly became solemn, she looked at Locke calmly, "You still have a long time, and when you think about it, you are deciding whether you want to do it or not..."

"When everything falls into place, there will be no uneasiness in your heart."

Demitea spread her hands again, and she smiled and said, "That's what I want to tell you. Of course, what I said is just my personal thoughts. Again, as I said before, our advice is not important, what matters is your decision. ”

"Whew!" Locke took a deep breath, and the boredom in his heart eased slightly.

As the Crusaders' renaming ceremony drew closer, his mind became more and more chaotic. Many things are tangled and difficult to sort out.

In particular, the question of the throne, and the series of issues that took place around the throne of Lordaeron, which he ignored.

The thinking of the countrymen made him ignore the recognition of legitimacy by the nobles in this world, and the far-reaching impact of the throne.

Locke always subconsciously thought that big fists were the last word, and he didn't have to unify the minds of other nobles for this. Instead of wasting time here, let's find a way to make Lordaeron better.

For this reason, he simply asked the Security Bureau to constantly monitor the nobles living in the area under his control, and supervise some of the nobles' behavior and speech.

But the news that Noelis recently told Locke is not encouraging. Especially during this time, some nobles actually heard about Kalia, and they secretly gathered to plot to make Kalia ascend to the position of queen.

Now there is little point in finding out who exactly leaked this information. Besides, there are only a few people at the top who know the news.

In his heart, Locke could have sworn he really hadn't thought about it in the first place. He wanted to free the Crusaders from that tragic history and let the glory of Lordaeron shine again on the land.

But since Fairbanks said it that day, he could never forget it, and the word seemed to arouse greed in his heart.

When he became king, he no longer had an elbow in Lordaeron. Once you are king, you can implement your ideas freely in the land of Lordaeron. When you become a king, when you go out to stand with other kings, you will not be inferior because of your status. It seems that when you become a king, you will have anything.

But he didn't want to let some people down because he was king. First of all, she failed Sally, and she already knew the news, so she was very depressed, and of course she was forced to laugh in front of herself.

Yes, now Locke is already exercising the rights of the king. Even without Princess Kalia, he can still be king. But to do so would be to turn many of his men away from morality.

Through Noris's investigation, many of Locke's men actually supported Locke because they had no choice. To be exact, Locke, who came to Lordaeron to revive him. If the princess marries him, there will be no problems for this part of the people. As the new king of Lordaeron, because of the presence of Princess Kalia, the other human kingdoms will naturally recognize him.

If Princess Kalia hadn't appeared, then their group would have had to choose Locke in the end. In the end, under the forced push of the noble council controlled by Locke, Locke is still the choice of king, which is actually the best solution.

But now that the news of the princess has been accidentally leaked, the consequences are somewhat unpredictable if the king is not him in the end. There will be no shortage of speculators, and many will run to Kalia for the opportunity to soar. This can be very detrimental to your plans.

Now Locke has a new understanding, that is, in this kind of society, these speculators really can't be killed. On the contrary, the Security Service is not omnipotent, controlling them through terror, and in the end they are likely to react strongly. At that time, you may not be a human being inside or out. Under the guidance of the conspirators' public opinion, don't look at you to save Lordaeron, you are a lord who steals the country, and they have the princess's righteousness in their hands, so what are your consequences? It can well be imagined.

These questions have always haunted Locke, forcing him to move forward with the kind of plan Fairbanks spoke of.

But Locke can't do it like the nobles of this world, and marry each other for the sake of each other... Locke's conscience condemned this practice was one of the reasons why he was slow to make up his mind.

To that end, he sent Sally out on a secret mission with Shiloh and the other high-ranking priests.

The purpose is also to make her think clearly, Locke will not give up on her, he is looking for a way to get the best of both worlds.

Things are so helpless, my wife is destined to have only one.

For the first time, Locke was confused about the situation in Lordaeron. Thinking back to what had happened during this time, he gradually realized that there was an invisible force behind it, pushing himself in the direction he wanted.

The man behind this seems to have taken his own hands at the beginning, so much so that it was just right for Fairbanks to find Princess Calia, and then let his own security bureau find out about it.

Now that I think about it, this is clearly a plan without a trace!
