Arthas was pale, his lips were chapped, his striking blonde hair was dull, and it was clear that Eliza's death had a great impact on him, his confused eyes could not be closed, his chest was undulating, and the blue tendons between his forehead appeared and disappeared, and everyone could see that his spirit was in a state of extreme confusion.

The kobold Max took out another bottle of potion, his breath was cold, and the effect was immediate, and he quickly restored his composure to His Royal Highness the Prince.

By the light of the fire, Anduin glanced at his surroundings, his eyebrows condensed slightly, and asked, "Arthas, I need to know what happened." ”

“……”

In silence, Arthas's eyes flashed with pain, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Eliza and I quickly converged, and then met Blackmore, I thought he would escort us to find the exit, but he suddenly burst out, and wanted to take me and Eliza as slaves, we can only join forces to resist, but I am not Blackmore's opponent at all, in a hurry, I can only pay the price of destroying the Holy Light's revenge, trying to die with Blackmore, but he easily dissolved, and I was swallowed by the Holy Light, falling into a coma." ”

"Before I was unconscious, I saw Eliza run in front of me...... "Alsace's facial muscles twisted, "but he was pierced through the chest by Blackmore!" If I could make it to the Legends, it wouldn't have turned out like this, what about Blackmore? Anduin, why are you here? ”

"Blackmore escaped."

Anduin explained lightly: "I sensed that something was wrong, so I planned to observe it secretly, but I fell into the ground with you, found Presto, and then helped the mushroom dealer Max to lift the slavery seal of the legendary warrior Orc Gouyle, and when we came, Blackmore was standing by your side, and he saw that the situation was not good, and fled directly." ”

"Why don't you catch him?" Arthas was annoyed and excited, "That sinister executioner, kill Eliza!" There's no reason why you shouldn't keep him! ”

Max took a few steps back with a look of disgust, and said in a strange manner: "It smells bad." ”

Everyone present, except for Arthas, knew what Max's evaluation was talking about, and Presto, whose life was in Anduin's hands, quickly explained: "The situation was very bad, Max and Lord Goyle were not in their prime, Blackmore chose to run away out of fear, and when he left, he kicked you into the abyss even more viciously, and destroyed the road, Arthas, we are very saddened by Eliza's death, but it is more important to keep you alive." ”

Arthas raised his head with difficulty, looking into the abyss of the unknown where he was almost dying, where he could not reach out his fingers, and there was not even the presence of fluorescent fungi, only the endless deep darkness that filled it.

"Anduin......" His Royal Highness the Prince blinked weakly, "I blame you for my mistake, Eliza's revenge, and I will avenge her." ”

Anduin nodded slightly, but his face did not improve, not because Arthas was angry because his emotions were out of control, after all, this is a normal reaction of a normal person, in fact, when he first met Blackmore, he also wanted to use the advantage of numbers to take it down, but what made him change his mind was the strange environment around him, and Eliza, who disappeared completely.

It stands to reason that after Eliza's death, there will always be some traces left, even if you can't see the body, there should be blood stains scattered around, but after systematic testing, there are only blood samples from Alsace and Blackmore nearby!

This made Anduin more and more curious, what secret did the big slave owner discover that made him lose his temper like that?

For some reason, Anduin felt that the answer would soon be revealed, because Princess Eliza's death could not be concealed, Blackmore's ambition was enough to make him on the front page of wanted lists across the country, and the territory of the Holy Empire would lose his place, no matter whether he completely surrendered to the emerging Magic Empire, or who the forces were, the secrets that Blackmore knew would make them make a big fuss about it, and maybe even completely subvert the Holy Empire.

"Okay, let's think about it now, how to get out, it is estimated that the appearance of the mountain giant has completely alarmed the Silver Fortress, but if you want to return the same way......" Anduin glanced at the mushroom dealer, and noticed that his gaze drifted away, "Obviously impossible, the top priority is to find a way back to the fortress as soon as possible, and make the news of Princess Eliza's death and Blackmore's betrayal public, Arthas, you must be mentally prepared, show the spirit of His Royal Highness the Prince, and face all possible consequences." ”

Arthas nodded heavily, and with Blackmore's support, he got up with difficulty: "In the final analysis, this matter is caused by me, if it weren't for my insistence on checking the situation, it would not have been possible to end up now, and I would have borne all the consequences, even if it was to go to the palace to be interrogated by the monarch." ”

His performance was in line with Anduin's expectations, Alsace was young and young, in addition to the inevitable existence of some problems, but there was still the responsibility that should be there, and then, Alsace talked about the history of the construction of the Silver Fortress, and Max, the mushroom dealer next to him, immediately showed a look of surprise: "No wonder I think this place stinks, it turns out that it is close to the sewers!" Come with me, I think I know where the exit is! ”

Everyone followed the kobold to the side of the road, and I don't know how long it took, a series of ghosts appeared, appearing in the place where Arthas was unconscious, they greedily absorbed the breath of life that was about to dissipate where several people landed, and immediately escaped into the dark abyss.

……

As Anduin expected, the awakening of the mountain giants not only attracted widespread attention to the Silver Fortress, but even brought a lot of panic, although no one saw the appearance of the mountain giants with their own eyes, but the eye-catching smoke and dust that rushed into the sky caused the residents to be uneasy, and for a time rumors spread around, what volcanic eruptions, what great earthquakes and anger, made people panic, if it were not for the quick response of the royal family and the Holy See, there might be a lot of chaos.

However, the civil unrest subsided, but the upper echelons of the fortress became more and more anxious, and the prince, princess, colt, and the incarnation of the Holy Light all disappeared, which was definitely the most serious accident in recent years.

When the news came, Tyrenus immediately fell into a rage, and he angrily summoned all the ministers of parliament, roaring again and again in the still empty hall, almost everyone who tried to persuade was scolded by him, even the old lord was no exception, under the thunder and rage, countless strong people poured out of the nest, just to find clues, but unfortunately, the sleeping mountain giants would not give them answers.

The solemn hall, the atmosphere was solemn, the iron-faced Terenus, his silver hair was scattered, he supported the armrest of the throne with one hand, and pointed at the ministers under the audience with the other: "Who can tell me!" Why are there no accompanying guards? Do you really think that the inside of the fortress is completely safe? ”

In the face of Terenus's questioning, even those who knew the situation did not dare to answer, Arthas did not want the guards to disturb everyone's emotions, and forcibly ordered them to stay in Gerald's family estate, everyone knew that even if they answered truthfully, they would only be reprimanded by the head and face, rather than being a "typical", it was better to "help each other" with others.

Under the influence of the twisted bracelet, Terenus was like an angry lion, although the majesty was gone, but the fierce posture made everyone frightened, the air in the palace was like gel, and no one dared to gasp for breath, all of them lowered their heads and fell silent, hoping for a miracle to resolve the difficulty.

"Report!"

At this moment, an excited message came from the gate, and the people present couldn't help but look sideways, and Terenus was even more excited to step down from the throne, and heard the panting soldier say: "Your Majesty, you're back!" ”

"Coming back? It's good to be back! Terrenaston turned from anger to joy, with no embers of anger on his face, as if he were just a kind old man, "Everyone's back?" ”

"Yes, everyone is back, Prince Alsace, Count Anduin, Lord Presto, and Princess Eliza, all safe and sound!"

……

Under the leadership of the mushroom dealer Max, Anduin and the others finally returned to the Silver Fortress through the sewers after "a lot of hardships", while the two legendary powerhouses temporarily stayed in the dark world because of their special identities.

Just when the three of them were in a hurry to find a place and clean up the stains, a person who should not have appeared actually appeared in front of the three of them in a grand manner, and because of the unpleasant smell, he took the initiative to retreat to a safe area.

"What's going on?"

The most exciting and terrifying thing in the world is to see the person who died in front of him, and suddenly appeared safely, and at this time, Alsace experienced such an unbelievable thing. Just now, he swore that he must clean up the sewer system of the Silver Fortress, but now, his mind was full of Eliza's chest pierced by Blackmore.

No one would be alive in that situation!

No one!

This is the perception of Alsace, and the same is the perception of all people.

But the fact is that Eliza appeared in front of him intact at this time, her face was still stunning, her eyes were still deep, and a pair of purple lace carved gloves set off her noble temperament, but now Alsace couldn't raise the desire for courtship at all.

"What's the matter, what are you staring at me all the time?" Eliza's innocent and romantic fair cheeks showed a hint of crimson, and a hint of puzzlement, "Is my makeup ugly today?" ”

Arthas didn't answer, but just gave Anduin and Presto a look, at this time, he couldn't tell which was illusory and which was reality, and Presto's expression was exactly the same as his.

Anduin was the only one who watched from the sidelines, watching everything with a blank face.

[After a preliminary scan, the characteristics of the two princesses Eliza are exactly the same, and there is almost no difference.] 】

"I need a deep scan! The last initial scan, I almost missed out on a lot of interesting things! ”

Anduin said lightly in his heart, and then took advantage of the gap between system scans to look at Eliza's intoxicating purple eyes, and asked, "Princess Eliza, how did you come back?" ”

"Of course I walked back!"

The corners of Eliza's mouth curved into a beautiful arc, and her eyes lit up: "Okay, no kidding, you don't really think I have any three long and two short, right?" I was indeed almost killed by Blackmore, but at the last moment, I could only use my life-saving hole cards and urgently teleported back to the palace, and then after the holy water treatment, most of my injuries recovered, if you don't believe me, there are still some unhealed marks on my chest, of course, I won't show you! ”

"Really?" Arthas's eyes flickered, because the scene of Eliza being pierced through the chest was still vivid, and he could still recall the laughter of the great slave owner and Eliza's pain, although he wanted Anduin to promise that he would face all the consequences as a prince, but among those consequences, there should never be such a one.

"Is that fake?" Eliza tilted her head and looked at the different expressions of the three of them with interest, "If I can't definitely guarantee my safety, how could my father allow me to travel alone?" Arthas, I'm sorry, I left you alone, it was really forced by the situation, as compensation, I agreed to your conditions, and at the same time, I also allowed you to escort me to the Hearthstone Inn, how about it? ”

His Royal Highness the Prince, who had palpitations, saw Eliza's smart demeanor, and began to doubt whether what he saw before he fell unconscious was true or false, but Anduin got all the data released by the system at this time.

After reading it, Anduin's face showed a strange smile, staring at Eliza, making her feel that she was completely seen through, for a noble woman with self-esteem and self-love, she couldn't tolerate such a compelling scrutiny, just when she was about to rebuke the unreasonable, but heard Anduin say: "Arthas, I think you should be wrong, you recall the environment at that time, there was not much blood on the ground, if it is really according to your description, how can that situation occur?" ”

"But ......"

Presto wanted to say something, but was forced back by Anduin's eyes, Arthas, who had not fully recovered until now, only felt even more dizzy, he shook his brain weakly, trying to regain his consciousness, but a feeling of dizziness rushed to his forehead, and he suddenly lost all consciousness, and he could not hear the shouts of Prince Terenus who came in a hurry.

……

At night, Anduin stayed in the palace, and after diagnosis, Arthas's coma was due to physical exhaustion, plus the self-destruction and revenge of the Warhammer Holy Light, so it was up to him and Presto to narrate, concealing the plans of the Magic Empire, concealing the hiding place of Max and Gouyle, concealing some unspeakable details, and putting all the blame on Blackmore, who absconded in fear of crime.

Although a lie, no matter how consummated, is only a lie, no one dares to question it in the case of Princess Eliza's testimony.

Anduin, who turned the tide, became a hero again, and under the guidance of Presto and Kalia, Terenus reluctantly gave Anduin the twisted bracelet that "could not make a second one" in return, and of course, the energy crystal that Anduin needed most.

As the moonlight poured down, making the palace appear poignant at night, Anduin sat by the fire, quietly looking through the Spiritual Secret Book in the right hand of the Holy Light, while waiting for a distinguished guest to quietly arrive.

"Since you're here, you still don't show up?"

Anduin, whose eyes wandered over the books, said to the empty room, and then a figure appeared in the darkness, with deep eyes, full of inexplicability: "You know I'm coming?" ”

"It's not hard to guess, because my eyes see through everything, and my eyes speak for themselves, if you are a smart person, you will accept my silent invitation, of course if you don't come, I will only be strong enough to ignore everything." Anduin closed the book and looked at Eliza from afar, "Obviously, you are a clever weakling, compared to those supreme beings. ”

"I don't have the heart to see you pretending to be advanced here!"

"Is it because of Blackmore? I wondered what secret he had discovered. ”

Eliza denied it: "He's just a madman!" ”

"But at least that roar can't be faked, and Blackmore's terrible injuries can't be faked......" Anduin caught a glimpse of Eliza's chest, "and your intact carcass!" ”

A cold look flashed in Her Royal Highness Princess's eyes: "Blackmore, there is no chance to tell that secret, if you still want to be the so-called incarnation of the Holy Light, you better learn to be smart!" ”

"I'm sorry!"

Anduin smiled fearlessly: "I am a very easy-going person, but I have never been afraid of any kind of threat, in my opinion, a win-win deal is the best way to do things, do you approve of it?" Princess Eliza...... Oh no, to be exact, Her Royal Highness Princess Eliza No. 2. ”
