Chapter 526: Two People with Similar Fates
How can a man's grief be resolved? Gianna thought back to the teachings of her mother, Catherine, and tried to influence the sweetheart of her choice.
She gave him a warm hug.
Feeling the warmth in front of him, Arthas froze, his reason was overwhelmed, but his heart was very honest.
This young prince, who bears the heavy responsibility of a country, is always so good in front of people, and his shoulders shrugged, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"What should I do, Gianna, I have failed my people, my homeland, and my ancestors, what shall I do?"
The uneasiness that had been suppressed in his heart exploded at this moment, and Arthas showed his weak side completely and humiliatingly in front of his sweetheart.
Gianna looked at Arthas, who had never shown before, and was equally overwhelmed, and she asked herself.
"How can I comfort him, and what right am I to comfort him?"
Gianna remembered the letter sent to her family some time ago, and the news about the tribe's attack on her homeland of Kurtilas, and suddenly mourned, her vision quickly blurred, and large tears came out of her eyes like Alsace.
Teenagers and girls with similar fates sympathize with each other, hug and cry, they are still young, but they have already borne the burden that can crush them, and at this time, only crying is the only way for this poor pair to vent.
I don't know how long they cried, but it was Gianna, a strong girl, who grabbed Arthas's shoulder with all her strength with her delicate palm, and said:
"My country is in turmoil, my father has been betrayed, and my brother has even been taken captive by the orcs, and his fate is still uncertain, but in this time of crisis, my father and mother have sent me a letter from home, and they told me to take care of myself and concentrate on my magic, and not worry. ”
Alsace listened to Gianna's words, as if he remembered something, and his surprise instantly overpowered his sadness, and he looked at the familiar but very strange girl in front of him in disbelief, but Gianna continued:
"You still have a chance to make amends, my friend, unlike me. You can only be lonely and lost on this continent, and you can't even find your way home, so please cheer up. ”
Gianna's strength shocked Arthas, and fully "infected" him, Arthas wiped away the weak tears on his face, and raised his hand to brush the corners of the blonde girl's eyes, then gently rubbed her face, and said:
"We'll all be well, Gianna, and I promise you, as soon as I put down the catastrophe in Lordaeron, I'll help you get home! ”
Arthas grabbed Gianna's hand with one hand and wiped the tears from her face with the other, and Gianna couldn't stop crying when she heard this.
The girl's crying was far better than before, but the tears were not only because of grief, but also because she had finally found someone to rely on.
The fatigue accumulated over a long period of time was relieved in this rare rainy night, and the next morning, before dawn, Arthas and Gianna appeared in front of Uther in high spirits.
And Uther looked at the energetic two and said with relief: "Very good!"
Arthas smiled at his paladin mentor and said, "I think it's time for us to end this escort and officially face our enemies." ”
"Yes, Your Highness the Prince, please give the order. ”
The master and apprentice smiled at each other's symmetrical changes, and the team set off again after a partial break.
The crossing of Colin is actually not that far from the Hand of Tyr, half a day on horseback and a day on foot, but after a great battle with the undead, no one would think it would be a good idea to continue on a dark and rainy night.
It was a different time now, when the rain had passed and the sun was shining, and the warriors of Lordaeron, though not completely rested, were much stronger than after the great battle.
In such a state, even if there is another attack like last night, Arthas is confident that it will be repelled.
However, I don't know if the evil undead are also aware of this, so this day's journey, walking very calmly, calm Alsace felt a little weird.
The beautiful town shrouded in the setting sun in front of him was the paladin base of the Hand of Tyr, but Arthas turned back to Gianna in disbelief and said:
"This peaceful scene isn't illusion magic, is it?"
Gianna nodded, she dared to vouch for her magical talent, but in fact, how could this be?!
Arthas once again felt the doubts he had in the small town of Daronshire.
"Why don't they know that something big has happened to Stratholme, even if Tulayan rushed all the way back to King Lordaeron to ask for help, are these paladins unaware of the changes in Stratholm in the north?"
Arthas was puzzled, but a respected leader of the Light had stepped out of the Hand of Tyr to greet them.
"May the Light bless you, Your Royal Highness Prince Arthas, you may seem some..."
The Archbishop of the Holy Light, Alonthos Fallon, looked at the crowd in front of him and was a little embarrassed, and his most illustrious disciple, Uther, immediately stepped forward and spoke:
"Teacher, didn't you get any news about what happened in Stratholme?"
"Stratholme?, your junior brother Dasohan, who once came back, told me that he and Lothar had not been able to find King Terenus in Stratholm, but they had received word that King Terenus might be in the territory of Quel'Thalas, in the Kingdom of the High Elves. ”
When Arthas and Uther heard the news, their faces instantly turned black as the bottom of a pot, and from the news that Tulayan had brought back, they learned that the great paladin Setan Dasohan had probably been killed, but they did not expect that the enemy would take advantage of him!
"We're going to find trouble with the elves, and when the elves are devoured by us, you'll be next!"
"Uther, please explain the situation to the archbishop, I will summon all the paladins here in my capacity as the crown prince. ”
Arthas commanded, and he began to act in a hurry, and he immediately began to think.
"Is this information true? Will an army of the undead converted from Stratholme's million population be able to defeat the High Elves, and if this information is true, what are we going to do?"
Arthas pondered, if the current army of the undead does not continue to attack Lordaeron in the south, going north to Quel'Thalas is indeed the only option, but in the face of the powerful magic of the High Elves, even if the army of the undead has millions of troops, it may not be able to win?
Then why are they going north, because they already have a way to defeat the High Elves?
Thinking of this, Arthas understood that there was only one choice for him, and that was to pursue it north! If the undead forces really had a way to destroy the High Elf Kingdom, then Lordaeron would really become the next one, which was something he absolutely could not accept!
