Chapter 203: The Lion and Trust and the Curse
Medivan couldn't help but speak:
"These thieves want to take advantage of my weakness to kill my master and make my home their lair. ”
With a contemptuous "hehe", Izzy gathered arcane energy on his arms and pushed away the boulder blocking the entrance to the spiral staircase.
Randreso and the remaining dozen warriors walked up to the rooftop, and Izzy said in a loud voice:
"Our orc's homeland was destroyed by your guardian, and he is still taking our people who have left behind in his homeland as hostages, trying to destroy your kingdom by the hands of our orcs, do you think he should be killed?"
Lothar and Khadgar listened to their own opinions, and they couldn't tell the truth from the fake, but since they came to Karazhan, they naturally had a purpose.
It must be recalled that two nights earlier, when Lothar had just been reunited with his son Karen when he was told by his guards that a young mage had broken into his camp and had indicated that he wanted to see him.
Lothar looked at the mage in front of him who felt very stinky and dressed up as a bear child, raised his hand and pushed his neck and stuck him on the chair, the bear child looked a little panicked, he first grabbed Lothar's right hand in a panic, but found that his weak arm could not break free from Lothar's iron palm like steel pincers, and then he showed the instinctive reaction of all mages, that is, chanting spells and casting spells to protect himself.
There weren't many mages that Lothar had beaten, but there were definitely double digits, so he knew what to do at this time.
With great agility, he picked up the rag on the table and shoved it into the mouth of the young mage who wanted to chant the spell, directly interrupting his unfinished spell.
"Son, I don't know what you're trying to do when you break into my barracks, but I think you have to recognize who you are, and play tricks. ”
Lothar waited for the bear boy to calm down, released his right hand that bound him, and removed the rag that gagged him from his mouth.
"My name is Khadgar, and I am the messenger of Kenrito, and I have come to warn you that something has happened to Medivan, Lord of Karazan and Guardian of Azeroth. ”
Lothar sneered and spoke, "Yes, I know that Medivan temporarily lost his power as a guardian due to his failed spell casting. ”
Khadgar's face was first full of doubt, and then his face changed dramatically.
"No, I mean the Guardian has lost control! He's as if possessed by some evil being who is trying to destroy our world, and with the help of the Guardian's power, he has opened a portal to bring the Orcs to the world. ”
Khadgar thought for a moment and went on to add, "If he's getting weaker now, it's proof that he's opened another portal. ”
When Lothar heard this, she immediately became serious.
"How did you find out about this?"
Khadgar cautiously looked around, and after making sure that there was no threat, he suddenly spoke:
"Garona, come out, it's safe here. ”
As soon as the young mage spoke, he saw a slender figure appear out of thin air in the doorway.
Lothar looked at the man warily, it looked like a female orc, but it was similar in size to a human, and its feet were a pair of sheep's hooves, Lothar could tell that she was a stalker by the appearance of female orcs, Lothar had been assassinated by such people in the past, so he was familiar with the stealth way this class emerged from the Shadow Realm.
Lothar quickly removed the long sword hanging on the wall, and looked at the female orc vigilantly, because of these orcs, the Seventh Legion lost more than a dozen lives.
"This is Garona, the warrior of the Orc Tribe, and the Tribal Chief has given him the task of monitoring the Guardian's movements, and acting as the Tribe's intermediary with the Guardian Medivan, who is able to prove everything I say. ”
"I don't believe what the enemy says. ”
Lothar looked at Garona's eyes, which began to show a fierce look, and he felt that if he could capture this orc, he would be able to get more information about the enemy, which could be said to be a rare opportunity.
Khadgar looked at Lothar's tense posture and suddenly felt bad, he hurriedly stopped between Lothar and Garona, and said:
"Commander, please calm down, whatever you want to do, it's not too late to make a decision after listening to what my companion has to say. ”
Garona glanced at Lothar, her eyes were full of aggression, and those eyes seemed to be speaking, clearly expressing the meaning of "If you dare to do it, you will only suffer yourself!"
"I am the glorious squire of the tribal chieftain, and I am here only to obey the will of our chief, he does not want to go to war with you humans, but now we have no other choice. ”
Garona's brow furrowed as she spoke, and continued, "Although I don't quite understand why he should care about you cowardly 'little shortfangs', I obey the leader's decision, and the chief must have his own ideas. ”
As she spoke, Garona took out two crystals from her waist bag, one was an energy-rich magic crystal, and the other was a magical green crystal.
The green crystal took on the shape of a six-pointed star, exuding a colorful dazzling brilliance, which looked amazing, and even a person like Lothar, who had no ability to cast spells, could feel the magical color emitted by this green crystal, and he felt that looking at the crystal was like being able to see countless ghosts.
"It's an artifact called Shadow of the Leaves, it can change the light, create illusions, and it can also store what has happened and project it on, and you can see what happened when you look at the image recorded in this crystal. As she spoke, Garona began to activate the power of the crystal.
A moment later, the look of disbelief on Lothar's face after viewing the footage, the crystal recorded almost all the details of Izzy's contact with Medivan.
From the opening of the first portal, the arrival of the orcs in Azeroth, the flashing of Medivan on the cliff, to the meeting between Izzy and Medivan in Karazhan, and the visions that Garona saw in Karazhan of Medivan spying on the movements of the tribe and the Stormwind Kingdom, etc., the Shadow of the Leaves presents these visions before Lothar's eyes.
Lothar didn't want to believe that these illusions were real, he hoped that these illusions were all fabricated false evidence, but on the other hand, Lothar reasoned that these illusions were real, that they were all things that had happened, and those illusions were so real that no one could make such real false illusions.
"I think I've got to go to Karazan!" Lothar whispered thoughtfully.
When Khadgar heard this, he hurriedly responded, "I'm going with you, I used to be Karazhan's guardian apprentice. ”
Lothar was stunned for a moment, looked at Khadgar with an unkind face, and said, "Once, so you're a fugitive now?"
Khadgar looked disappointed and replied, "I did give up my practice, but I didn't give up my duty, we are all part of Azeroth, and we should protect this world." ”
Lothar glanced at the young Khadgar, and there was a hint of appreciation in her eyes, and Garona on the side listened to the words of the two, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"If you're going to Karazhan, I think you'll have to hurry, just now the chief and I had a remote call, and he was ready to raid Karazhan and get rid of the culprit that threatened the lives of our people.
Lothar and Khadgar froze for a second when they heard Garona's words, and then they both showed strange expressions, and said in unison:
"Your chief is killing himself!"
