Chapter 47: Darien's obsession
"My father's soul has not yet been laid to rest, you know, I must complete that mission, that is my mission, my long-cherished wish!"
The next day, the conference room began to hear the sound of an argument, and out of curiosity, Ares stood outside the door and whispered. but was called in by the High Lord Maxwell......
In front of them, sat Maxiver, Darien, Drum, Fred, Ehrliss and others. All of them had serious expressions and dull expressions. And from the conversation just now, Ares can guess that this meeting is a little unfriendly, at least, their views are not consistent.
Darien sat across from him, a little sullen, and apparently, Ares' sudden intrusion disrupted the rhythm of their meeting.
"Ares, you've come just in time, we're discussing a tricky matter."
The Grand Lord Maximil said, motioning for Ares to sit casually. Most of the seats on the scene were empty, and apparently, this was limited to the action meetings of the Silver Dawn higher-ups.
"Darian, you continue."
Then, with a look of displeasure, the High Lord asked the young Darien to continue the conversation on the topic just now.
"I don't have anything more to say, I have only one request, let me go and raid Naxxramas, if there are no comrades, no one wants to come with me, then, I will go alone! The Light told me that my father was never killed by the Scourge and that there must be a conspiracy involved. ”
Darien said with a calm face and grief. And at this point, Ares probably knows what this meeting is about. Young Paladin Darian. Mograine tried to venture into the Scourge Fortress Naxxramas, but the leader of Silver Dawn and the others did not approve of him doing so. Because that's too radical and risky. Naxxramas is the Scourge Legion's flying fortress on the front line, and it is also the most terrifying and eerie place, the High Lord Mograini was resurrected as a death knight after his death, and he is stationed in that fortress, which is full of death and decay, and normal people should avoid it, but Darien has to brave the cave of the dead. Such a move certainly did not have the support of Silver Dawn, although his actions seemed so brave and righteous.
"It's not that we won't go with you, Darien, you have to know our current strength, how many people are in Silver Dawn? There are less than a thousand, and how many undead disasters are there? There is no end to it, and we don't know how many undead are roaming the Plaguelands, let alone the Scourge Legion's stronghold, Naxxramas. Necromancers, Spiders, Skeleton Giants, Death Knights, and Abomination. Do you know how evil it is inside? Your faith and the power of the Light are not enough to defeat them. Not even me. ”
In the face of Darian's radicalism, the High Lord Maxwell was clearly more calm and sane. He sat on the seat of the council and rationally analyzed the situation to the young paladin Darien.
But Darien doesn't seem to want to listen to these so-called analyses, and he only has one belief that he wants to find out the real murderer of his father back then. Rumor, yes, there was a rumor among the Scarlet Crusade that Mograine's eldest son, Renaud, had taken up the Ashbringer and killed his father when he was tired and weak. This rumor was quickly drowned out, perhaps for some ulterior reason. When Darien came out of the Scarlet Crusade, he was still haunted by this rumor.
"Maybe we should give him a chance."
The atmosphere was a little tense, and at this time, Pastor Fred of Light spoke again. His voice was very low, but everyone present could hear it clearly.
"Are you crazy? Old man? The last time you took Drum, you went to Quel'Thalas, and you almost killed you, and now, you've let Darien go on an adventure. We don't have that many paladins to deal with the undead, to deal with the Scourge army! ”
Fred's voice made Maximil a little unhappy, and the old friend always turned his elbow out at critical moments. Maximil wanted to rip open his skull and see what was in the old man's head.
"The paladins have nothing to replenish and cultivate, but if the faith is lost, they can never be recovered. Revelation of the Light, yes, I believe Darion was inspired by the Light to want to do this. The Light has given us the strength and courage to pierce the sword of light into the heart of darkness, Darian, I trust him. ”
Fred said to the young Darien. Mograini cast a look of trust and encouragement.
"It's crazy......"
After Fred finished speaking, Maximil shook his hand and shouted depressedly.
"Thank you for trusting me, Father."
Seeing the reversal of the situation on the field, Darien returned gratefully. Then, he picked up his sword and turned around to leave the venue.
"Wait, Lord Darien."
At this moment, a rapid shout stopped the young paladin. Darien turned to look, it was Ares...... Yes, it's the young paladin Ares who just joined Silver Dawn yesterday.
Darian was a little happy in his heart, he longed for Ares to say something, but he didn't dare to expect it. And in the next second, Ares's answer stunned everyone.
"I'll go with you, Darien."
I saw Ares stand up and speak in a serious and serious tone.
"Do you know how dangerous it is there? Brothers. ”
Drumm immediately retorted. No one foresaw this scene, from the very beginning of not letting Darian go alone, to now, there are comrades-in-arms who are willing to go with him to die. This plot reverses a little quickly...... Even Darien himself was surprised. He stared at Ares for a long time before he came to his senses and said seriously, "Thank you, brother, that you really want to go with me to that fortress?" ”
"Since I said it, I'm going to do it. I'm serious. ”
Ares stepped forward and swore an oath. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Ares knew that Darion's operation would be 90% successful, as is the case in the history of Warcraft. Also, brave Naxxramas and you'll have the privilege of witnessing the legendary artifact, the Ember Bringer. Although it has fallen, it is a blessing to be able to see it with your own eyes, and since you have come to Azeroth, you can't miss every thrilling journey. Besides, even the destruction of Quel'Salas has been experienced, and this kind of break-in seems to be no problem.
"Well, thank you for joining us, Ares. Together, we will break into that fortress of the dead and pierce the heart of darkness! ”
Darian said, the whole person became excited, his eyes were shining with hope, compared with yesterday's gloomy discouragement, Darian at this moment seemed to be a different person.
"Alright, alright, two lunatics, then, now, add me one."
Seeing that Ares and Darien were so determined, Drumm stood up from his seat and said he was going to participate as well.
Then, Fred also stepped forward - "You need a priest to treat you." ”
Even Logan, the weapon master who had been sitting in the corner, stood up - "Such an exciting thing, how can it be without me." ”
Finally, the Silver Dawn Mage Eric also stood up - "You need another mage, and that's me. ”
"TMD, crazy, all crazy."
At this moment, the commander-in-chief of the Silver Dawn, Maximil, who had been sitting in the main seat, was furious, he yelled, and walked out of the conference room indignantly......
