Chapter 325: May the Holy Light Fool You!
The lord of the "Arsenal Fort", Mir Havelock, himself from the "Sigmar Cult" of the Empire, asked Fitandila to go to the "Aldolf" after he personally led his troops to relieve the siege of "Fetanburg".
At that time, the viscount was also going to leave two bronze lance knights who had retired from a certain knighthood of the empire in "Fetamburg" to act as guides to lead the way, but Fitandila refused without hesitation, she did not want her every move to be within the other party's sight.
Defying Fitandila's opinion, Havelock handed her a letter which, according to the lord, could take the letter to the local Sigmar Temple and seek help from the priest and Templars if she was in trouble within the Empire.
Both Stone and Rep know that the Sigmar Sect has a high status in the Empire, and that towns of a slight size will have temples dedicated to Sigmar and garrison a certain number of armed forces.
If it's true as Havelock said, then with this letter, they can say that there is one more talisman.
This is also a lot of good news, no one can predict what accidents will be encountered in the next trip, especially some may not be solved by force, and then you will need official help.
After all, the empire is not a borderless land like the border prince, and everything can be said with fists.
The most important route of travel was determined, and with this new good news, the nerves that had been tense in the stone could finally relax, and this relaxation, a wave of sleepiness came up.
Although the physical strength of the new body is not bad in the shrimp, it is still not comparable to the perverted physique of the humanoid combat weapon of the black orc, and although he has been in the carriage for so long, he is also a little tired.
"If there is nothing else to do, then let's go back and rest, there is still a long way to go."
He let out a big yawn without hesitation, which fell right into the eyes of Fitandila on the other side.
After departing from "Fetenburg", Stone and her each rode in a carriage, and for a few days there was basically no intersection, most of the time staying in their own carriage, so tonight was also the first time that Fitandila had a close encounter with the princess from the north.
The first feeling of the female city lord was that the Norscans were really different from the old world, and the dignified princess of a country did not look like a nobleman in her words and deeds.
It can only be said that the body that is still in the stone is a Norscan, and if it is replaced by the most ceremonial Bretonian, then Fitandila will be suspicious.
But just as Stone and Rep were about to go back to their room to rest, she suddenly threw out a question.
"Princess Brienne, excuse me, I know you've been having a hard time these days, but there's one thing I'd like to ask, can you tell me a little bit about Lordaeron? Why have I never heard of it? Also, I asked some businessmen who passed by, and they also said that they did not know the country. ”
The tone of the female city lord was very polite and sincere, this question had been bothering her for a long time, and now that she had the opportunity, she quickly asked it.
The blonde "Princess Brienne" on the opposite side nodded, posing as if she could of course be, in fact, she had already guessed that the other party would ask, and she had already prepared a statement in her heart.
"My homeland of Lordaeron is in the northernmost part of the Norscar Peninsula, on a piece of land called Northrend, with icebergs floating in the Kraken Sea to the north and the snow-capped Skadi Mountains to the south, so there is almost no contact with the outside world."
"Our capital is called Stratholme, and the population is small, but both men and women, young and old, are qualified fighters. The current king, Terenus Minethir II, is my father, a great king and a mighty warrior, and my elder brother, Arthas, is the wisest commander of Lordaeron. ”
"I see, but don't the Norskas, especially those near the Chaos Wastes to the north, believe in the Chaos Gods? Why are you completely different? ”
Fitandila continued.
"Because we have our own faith, Light! After taking refuge in the Light, our priests can use it to heal wounds, the paladins can use it to arm themselves, and officially relying on the all-powerful Light, we have defeated other tribes that believe in the evil gods of chaos again and again. ”
"Holy Light? Is there such a thing as this? It's really a big world. Since Lordaeron is so closed, how did you know about the outside world, and how did you think of coming to form an alliance with us? ”
"A few decades ago, a pirate ship from South Norska was shipwrecked and finally drifted to the shore of Northrend, and it was through the mouths of the survivors that we heard about the outside for the first time, only to know that the original world is not all ice and snow, to know that there is a wider land in the south, and to know that there are countless people like us, fighting together against the evil god of chaos."
The more the stone spoke, the more energetic he became, and the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth, and Fitandila, who didn't know the truth, was infected by his emotions and nodded like pounded garlic.
Lei Pu on the side also smacked his tongue secretly, if he didn't know the true identity of the lord, he would almost believe it.
"Since then, we've been preparing to make contact with the outside world, first spending ten years digging a tunnel in the mountains that leads to the south, and then sending a number of people to hide their identities to the Old World, including my brother, who has been here for a long time and who met Rep at that time. After he returned, he used his personal experience to convince our father to form an alliance with the human kingdom of the Old World, which is why Rep found you, as for the specific reason, I don't know. ”
Shi always couldn't tell her that the alliance with "Fetanburg" was because it was close to her own territory, and she couldn't think of any other reasonable excuse, so she could only push it to her "father" and "brother" who didn't exist.
"Arthas taught me the lingua franca of the continent, originally he came out this time, but in recent years, I don't know why, those tribes bewitched by chaos have become stronger and stronger, as a commander, he had to stay in Lordaeron, so it was replaced by me, I also met people from the chaos tribe on the way, and the soldiers who accompanied me were all killed, so I was the only one who came here."
"Last question, Princess Brienne, are you going to "Aldolphe" this time to form an alliance with the Empire on behalf of Lordaeron? ”
"I'm sorry, I'm going to keep it a secret, because this matter is too important, you can rest assured, it won't affect our relationship."
"It's okay, I can understand and hope everything goes well."
At this point, it can be seen that Fitandila has completely believed what "Brienne" said, and after this conversation, the relationship with her seems to have become much closer.
Stone got up and left with Rip, who was full of admiration, and before stepping out of the room, he suddenly turned back and said very pretentiously:
"May the Light guide our path! Good night. ”
