Chapter 14: The Return

Stormwind, the royal palace.

Claudia's adjutants always had to give it, so that afternoon, Bridget met with King Varian through regular channels.

After saluting, Varian looked at the red-haired woman in front of him and asked with interest, "Bridget Abydis, why did you ask to see me?" Moreover, it is through formal channels to report and ask for a meeting. ”

"I want to join the Seventh Legion and pledge my allegiance to you and Your Highness Barathan."

"Why?" Varian was even more interested, "I remember the intel said that you didn't approve of the agreement made by Tarummere. ”

"We don't approve of the Forsaken, Your Majesty," Bridget corrected, "Minethil has abandoned us, and so have we abandoned Minethil, and two years ago Commander Mograine offered to trade the throne of Lordaeron for your army to restore Lordaeron, and my father and I did not object to this offer at the time, and I am loyal to you, your wife, and Your Highness Barathan. ”

Varian asked, "Do you want to join the Seventh Legion for revenge?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, I want revenge, but I will not go to the Crusaders and the Legion of the Undead, I wish to join your legion."

After listening to Brigitte's words, Varian was already extremely satisfied with Brigitte, but still reminded: "You need to put the interests of the royal family first, obey military orders, and not attack the Forsaken without permission." ”

"I understand, Your Majesty," Bridgett whispered.

Varian continued to ask, "Although you have military experience in Lordaeron, the Seventh Legion is a newly formed legion after all, and you need to start as a major, are you willing to accept it?" ”

Bridget said, "I do, Your Majesty." ”

A smile appeared on Varian's face: "Well, the Stormwind Kingdom welcomes you to join, Major Abydis, and I believe you will become a good female general." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment."

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to witness your allegiance tomorrow morning, and now you can go and accompany Claudia again, after all, you haven't seen each other for so long."

That same evening.

After Claudia fed the baby, took a bath, ran to Varian's room next door in her bathrobe and got into Varian's bed, after Claudia served Varian hard, the couple chatted, chatting and chatting about Bridget during the day.

Varian: "I thought you'd stay with Bridget for dinner." ”

"She came south to see me just by the way," Claudia shook her head: "Finding you to join the Seventh Legion is her most important purpose, besides, my situation with her has changed dramatically, and she is extremely strong, and keeping her in the palace may make her already depressed mood even more uncomfortable, so I let her go to live in my house in the old town, my house is next to the back mountain, maybe it will be better for her to relax on the mountain." ”

"Hmm." Varian stopped talking, and reached out to stroke Claudia's blonde hair, he was extremely satisfied with Bridgette's allegiance, Bridget's ability, fame, and background in Lordaeron, there was no doubt that she could be unanimously recognized by the soldiers and officers of the Seventh Legion, and most importantly, Brigitte was at odds with the other two forces of Lordaeron, which was especially important.

In the same night.

Bridget walked to a house in the Old Town with a columbarium in her arms and knocked on the door.

A bald man with a dagger hanging from his waist opened the door with a bad face, and when he saw the columbarium the first moment he understood what was happening, he said coldly: "How did she die?" ”

Britst apologized, "I was framed at the hands of Tyr, Wendy didn't want to see me being insulted and rescued me, and then she was seriously injured in the process of escaping, but I couldn't save her...... I'm sorry. ”

The bald head snorted coldly: "Hmph-, what's there to be sorry for, I said a long time ago that this idiot is not suitable for this business, even if she doesn't save you, sooner or later she will die because of other things." ”

"How can you say that about Wendy?" Bridget raised her eyebrows and raised her voice to emphasize, "She saved me!" ”

The bald head sneered coldly: "Yes, she saved you, but she herself died, and the mission failed, maybe more people died because of the failure of this mission, according to the standards of our industry, she is not a fool?" Give her to me now, and I'll find a place to bury her. ”

Brigitte lost the strength to defend herself, and after handing over the ashes, she asked gloomily, "She said to you on her deathbed that you should take care of the 'Nightingale', and where are you going to bury her?" ”

"I'll tell you when I'm buried with her, Major Abydis." After the bald head called out Bridget's identity, he slammed the door slammed shut.

Abydis was stunned for a moment, turned to leave, and after the bald head put down the ashes in the house, while changing his clothes, he said to himself viciously: "Abigail, you idiot, you won't let me go when you die, I must have slept with you too much to become stupid, and I plan to take over this big trouble." ”

After changing his clothes, the bald head went to a house in the trade area, opened the door with the key, swaggered into the house, and walked through the living room and up the stairs until he reached a corner and sniffed before he said coldly: "Get out, Vanessa, your smell has exposed you." ”

There was no movement around the corner.

The bald head was no longer polite, and suddenly pounced on a position, Vanessa finally emerged from there with a dagger in hand, but she was no match for the bald head now, and after a few strokes she was subdued, the dagger was snatched away and thrown aside, and her arm was dislocated by the bald head with a creak.

Vanessa was so painful that her forehead was full of cold sweat, but she gritted her teeth and refused to speak, and her bald head sneered: "This is the punishment for you who dare to point a dagger at me, and then listen to me, the rotten old mentor who adopted you has failed the mission and turned into ashes, and I will adopt you as my apprentice for her in the next few years, but my rules are different from Abigail's, but if you dare to embarrass Lao Tzu in the trial two years later, Lao Tzu will not care about Master Shore's ban, and will directly tie you up with a stone and throw it down from the dock to feed the sharks." ”

Vanessa's eyes flashed with hatred when she heard the words of Master Shore, and then she gritted her teeth in severe pain and said, "I...... No...... Make you ...... Disappointing. ”

"Remember, next time you dare to face Lao Tzu with a dagger, the punishment will not be as simple as this time." The bald head said coldly, and then he attached Vanessa's dislocated arm and disappeared into the night with Vanessa, who was already ten years old......

A few days later, Stormwind.

By this time, Brigitte had gone to the front, and Claudia and Varian were hosting a banquet for the members of Brian's expedition.

After nearly a year and a half of the journey, Harrison Jones and Brian Copperbeard led the explorers of the Explorers' Guild to complete several important missions, returned to Stormwind by ship, and were ceremoniously received by Varian and Claudia, and in addition to the explorers who originally set off, the expedition also had an important person--- Muradine Copperbeard.

Muradin was discovered by Brian in the Stormy Mountains, and after being seriously injured by Prince Arthas, he was in a coma in the Frost Sorrow Cave** for a long time, and was finally rescued by a group of close relatives of the dwarves, the Frost Dwarves, but because of the effects of the knockdown, Muradin had no memory of his past at all. Although he lost his memory, he did not lose his combat effectiveness, but relied on his hero-level strength to help the "Frost Dwarves" repel the "Ice Giants" who invaded the territory of the Frost Dwarves, and was elected as the new leader by these Ice Dwarves.

At this time, although Mulardin's memory has not yet fully recovered, he has also remembered many things with the help of Brian, he, Brian, Varian, Harrison and others drank very happily, as the hero who provided the news that Muradin may still be alive, Claudia also gained the gratitude of the dwarves, and when Varian and Harrison were chatting happily, Muradin raised his glass to express his gratitude to Claudia.

"I'm sorry, both of you, I'm pregnant, so I can only drink some juice and drink as a drink." Claudia smiled.

Muradine had no memory of Claudia at all, but he had heard Brian say that Claudia had helped him in this matter, so he politely replied, "No problem, Queen Claudia, thank you for your help to me, I will always remember your kindness." ”

"You're too polite, Muradin." Claudia took a sip of the juice, and Muradin drank the glass back to his seat.

Brian leaned in and chatted with Claudia: "Thank you, Queen Claudia, for the fact that in addition to Muradin's information, the Viku of the Vaudren tribe also played a significant role in this expedition, and we hired them as guides with grain, goat's milk, and ale, which made our expedition in Grizzly Hills and Howling Fjords a lot smoother." ”

"How's the Waldron tribe?" Claudia was curious, "Is Tovard still the patriarch?" ”

"Yes, it's still the big guy who rides the dragon as the patriarch," Brian nodded, "That Viku tribe has nothing to say, the standard of living is quite primitive, they envy our steel weapons and armor, and that big guy wants us to help him make some steel weapons, but even if we dwarves don't have a blast furnace, we can't make steel...... That's right,"

Brian suddenly thought of something, and his face became serious: "We have found important archaeological evidence in the Howling Fjord, which has confirmed that humans did originate from the Viku people, according to our archaeological records and combined with the Viku people, the Veku people were originally steel bodies and immortal beings, and then the creator issued a curse, and they never became flesh and blood, gave birth to human babies and thus abandoned their belief in the Titans, all of which are consistent with your message in Ironforge." ”

"The curse was not sent by the Creator." Claudia corrected.

Brian asked with concern, "I don't want to ask about this, what I care about is, are we dwarves also originating from earth spirits as you said?" Where can I get this evidence? ”

"Dwarves do originate from earth spirits," Claudia affirmed, "but on the second question, I'm not sure where Uldaman is now after the collapse of the earth, and I don't recommend that you invade Uldaman or other Creator Ruins, most of the Creator Ruins have important functions, and if you destroy them rashly, it is easy to cause disaster, if you find the Creator's Ruins, please inform me, don't destroy them." ”

Brian listened to Claudia's statement and said disapprerovingly: "Disaster? What disasters can there be? ”

"It would be an annihilating catastrophe," Claudia warned solemnly, "and most of the Creator's ruins have played a pivotal role, some have been laboratories for the Creator's failed works, some have been imprisoned by the Creator of the world's most dangerous prisoners, and even more...... If the invasion is not done in the right way, it will directly destroy the entire surface of the planet. ”

"Okay," Brian reluctantly agreed, hearing Claudia's seriousness.

"Actually, you don't have to be in such a hurry, I will take the initiative to go to Uldaman once in two or three years, there is evidence of dwarf origin in Uldaman, and you can join me when the time comes."
