"Lich Frost Whisper...... How did you kill him? ”

With a skeptical attitude, Ares led a group of scarred warriors and paladins to the Hall of the Lich, the deepest part of the psychic academy.

Here, dozens of Forsaken Assassins have been waiting for a long time, and they are standing in the small catacombs. Seeing Ares coming, each placed a dagger on his chest as a sign of respect. This can't help but make Ares sigh that the living people are not so trustworthy, but the dead people are still alive......

With Gianna's help, Ares approached the evil lich. Its body was in tatters, except for the skeletal head, which was still intact, and the rest of its body was gone, leaving only frost armor scattered all over the place.

"Use the poison they developed and kill them."

The leader of the thieves swore by it.

"This is it."

As he spoke, he drew his dagger and poured a vial of potion on it, and the sharp dagger burst into flames.

"Fire Elixir?"

Ares suddenly remembered that the undead thief had told them about the evil poison that had been developed by the Dark Dean Gardin himself, and was being prepared to be used to equip the entire Scourge Legion. And now, the results of the research have been stolen by the forsaken and used to equip themselves and kill each other. This has to be said to be a kind of irony. The Dean of Darkness never imagined that it was his outstanding research results that killed his boss, the Lich. Frost Whisper.

"Yes. Before the operation, all of us carried this elixir and, in battle, used it. It will continue to burn, even when it encounters the coldest frost nails. ”

The Forsaken Assassin leader then explained. Ares could imagine how these crazed shadow assassins wielded daggers in the darkness and sliced the lich to pieces with a single knife while he was battling the dark dean Gardin. It should be like fireflies in the dark, covering the entire catacombs.

"Well, we made it. Thank you for your support. Now, me and my people, we're getting out of here. But before I can leave, I have to burn down this underground academy. ”

After examining the lich's corpse and making sure that the temporaneous alliance had not deceived him, Ares began to present his ideas as a lord. Moreover, there seems to be no hint of compromise in the words.

The undead assassins knew what he meant, and the High Lord Ares didn't want them to take over the evil Underground Academy.

It is full of evil curses, and these Forsaken are originally the product of darkness and light, they are neither living nor dead, and because they are almost unacceptable to people all over the world, the Forsaken are more likely to incline and fall into dark evil. In order to prevent the dark energy here from affecting the deceased who had just broken free from the Lich King's bondage, Ares decided to burn down the underground academy.

……

Two days later, the psychic academy located below Keldaron Fort was completely in ruins, and even the pillars supporting the underground buildings were burned, causing the collapse of the above-ground part, and the remains of the former Barov family disappeared completely, and the castle on the island in the middle of the lake became a pile of rubble and rotten wood.

"Honey, what have you been thinking about these two days? I can't even sleep well at night. ”

Sitting in a boat, Gianna asked with concern. Since leaving the psychic academy, she saw that Ares hadn't slept well for two days and nights.

"It seems that nothing can be hidden from you......"

Ares sighed.

"What the hell is that?"

Gianna asked. She sat down closer, her head next to Ares, a caring and considerate look.

"The Forsaken. I'm wondering if I'm going to wipe them out once and for all after I go out this time. ”

Looking at the calm and cold surface of the lake, Ares said worriedly.

"Why? They had just helped us a few hours earlier, destroying the Evil Academy, and besides, we had already made an alliance with them, so why destroy them? ”

Gianna was surprised by Ares's statement, it was Ares who wanted to unite the Forsaken in the first place, and now, it was Ares who wanted to destroy them...... What is it about Ares that has changed so much? Gianna had a vague sense of concern.

"Do you remember four months ago, when you, and Drum, I went deep into Brill to meet with the leader of the Forsaken?"

Looking at Gianna's surprised gaze, Ares said slowly.

"Yes, yes."

"That's when I made an agreement with Putres...... You probably remember that, right? ”

"Well, he used potions to control the spread of the plague and save the crusaders in the monastery, and in exchange, you carved out the town of Deathbell as their base, and didn't let anyone else know about it."

Gianna replied in a low voice. The soldiers behind him were already asleep, and they quietly talked about this unknown past.

"Yes, however, here we are, met the Forsaken...... What does this prove? It turns out that Putress deceived me, and that he was not content to live in that deserted place in Deathtown, and the Forsaken came out, and that's true. ”

Ares replied bitterly. That Putres, Ares didn't even know what kind of scheming was hidden under his seemingly weak appearance.

"But maybe the Forsaken and the undead in Deathknell aren't the same people?"

Gianna offered her opinion.

"It's possible. But, no matter what, I can't trust them again. ”

Ares was distraught.

"I see, you're worried, you're worried that you can't control the development of the situation, and one day, we may be fighting these forsaken with the sword, so you intend to destroy them in advance and strangle them in their original state."

Gianna said in one sentence and summed up Ares's thoughts.

"Yes."

Ares returned wistfully.

"It's not sensible, Ares."

Ares looked at Gianna, but the answer he was waiting for was Gianna's negative words.

"Why? What do you think about this? ”

Ares asked.

"I don't think we should attack the Forsaken. They didn't do anything harmful to humanity, at least not yet. And, in the days when the Scourge is raging, they can help us. If, at this time, we devote our few forces to attacking the Forsaken, then it is equivalent to internal friction. The Scourge is our main enemy. Ares, once, you took Drum, into Brill, to unite the Forsaken, at the time, even I could not understand what you did, but later, I understood that that is the real alliance, the great enemy, to unite all the forces that can be united. For the sake of this world. ”

Gianna said seriously.

"But what about the future? In the future, once a common enemy is lost, the Forsaken will be deprived of a worthy leader who will endanger everyone. ”

Ares replied irritably.

"If in the future, they become demons that endanger humanity, then, I will defeat them on the battlefield, not now. These forsaken ones, who have not yet done anything harmful to humanity, cannot break their promise and slaughter them behind their backs. What's more, have you forgotten? Without the antidote they developed, the Scarlet Monastery would have been wiped out by the plague of natural disasters. From this point of view, the Forsaken have even saved us, so how can we be behind it? Furthermore, if something worse happens, I mean, if the plague happens again, like the last one, and our pharmacists can't come up with a cure, who will save us? ”

Gianna said worriedly. There was a hint of unease in her eyes, and Ares knew what she was worried about. Yes, Alsace has had such emotions at one time, fear, restlessness, restlessness, and finally everything turned into irrational revenge......

Ares knew what Gianna remembered, and the values of this world might be different...... The Holy Light favors the Paladin, however, he must be absolutely pure, which is called glory. It's like Uther would rather wait until the plague breaks out and kill those zombies than wipe them out of this world in advance; Like Thrall, he would rather let go of the human children, even if in the future they might take up arms on the battlefield against their own people. This is called glory...... Ares sighed.
