Chapter 85: Reinforcements from the South
The wind blew through Lordaeron and swept away a dark cloud.
The members of the Cursed Sect in the city have basically been completely eliminated, the inquisitors of Lordaeron Prison have been in shifts, many people have not closed their eyes for several days, one after another members who have not been found have surfaced, and all the members of the assassin group have been dispatched, and it is said that the blood on the dagger of the trainer Roande has not been killed, and he himself has killed more than a dozen people!
The two days finally subsided, and the nervous citizens of Lordaeron also came out of the house one by one.
Who was caught in which family?
How many more members of the Cult of the Damned were executed in prison?
What is Princess Kalia going to do with them?
More than 3,000 people, will they all be put to death?
All of this has become a topic of conversation among the citizens after dinner.
In the bars, in the trade areas, in the streets, in the squares, people gather and talk about it.
And a name frequently appears in their words.
"Nicholas Ginger! I heard that he single-handedly uprooted the entire Cursed Sect? He personally identified hundreds of members of the Cursed Sect? ”
"It is said that he has a pair of eyes that can see through everything, and is able to directly penetrate clothes and see the signs on the skin of the Cursed Sect!"
"Oh my God, then, if he looks at me, will he be able to see me, my ...... All? So shy! ”
"you, look at me! As for your crooked melon and cracked dates, can people take a fancy to you? You say that he goes to see Princess Kalia every day, and that Princess Kalia is so beautiful...... Where will his eyes look? ”
"Have you heard? Nicholas has recovered the fish-men of the entire Lake Lordamere! A merchant took a sip of wine and said with the strength of the wine.
"Really? Can the fish-people be recovered? Do you understand what they say? A stonemason pouted.
"Don't believe it! My brother is stationed on Fenris Island! He saw with his own eyes all the fish-men gathered to listen to Lord Nicholas! And since a few days ago, the Fish-Man has never attacked anyone again! The merchant shouted, "One more drink!" ”
"That's right, Lake Lordamere has now doubled its aquatic crops! I'm going to buy two more boats, and I'm calling for a fisherman! Lordan Mill Crazy Fish tastes so good, everyone loves it! Mistress Nicholas has done a good deed! An old fisherman nodded.
"Hehe, you know too little! I heard from my uncle's nephew's aunt's brother that Princess Kalia had made contact with Dalaran and ordered all members of the Cult of the Damned to be thrown to an island in Lake Lordamere! Cultivate farmland, grow crops, build houses, and drive away the gnolls! What is it called...... Labor reform! It was Lord Nicholas's idea! "It's humane again.
"Well, that's a good idea! Great! Many of those members of the Cursed Sect were bewitched, and it was not a serious crime, and the prison could not fit it! It is better to let them go to labor reform than to kill! And that isolated island can't get out, and I'm not afraid that they will escape! Want to go? Have you asked Fishman if you agree? ”
"Don't say it, look at it! Mistress Nicholas is here! Someone exclaimed, and then everyone saluted in a certain direction.
Very ordinary attire, ordinary and simple, but as a martial artist, Jiang Zheng still exudes a healthy smell and an indescribable attraction.
He didn't enjoy the feeling of being watched, but he didn't reject it either, so he nodded and smiled at the populace.
Suddenly!
A blade pierced the space, flashing with a miserable green light, and it was smeared with poison!
The blade is the back of Jiang Zheng, which is the classic skill of thieves:
Backstab!
Jiang Zheng didn't turn around, didn't pause, didn't get nervous, didn't speak.
He just stretched out a hand, swiped through the afterimages, and came behind him. Then, between the lightning and flint, an internal force shot out from between his fingers, hitting the thief who had just emerged from the stealth state!
"Empty point!"
The next moment, the thief collapsed to the ground.
"Let's Jean! Let's Jean! Get him to jail! Master Jimmy Vishas has complained several times that if no one interrogates him again, he'll arrest us for interrogation! The two guards quickly rushed over, arrested the thief, and then stood up to Jiang Zheng and saluted: "Lord Nicholas! ”
"Hmm." Jiang Zai nodded, and then walked towards the palace.
This has happened more than 20 times during this time.
The Cult of the Damned treated him as a thorn in the flesh, sending members to assassinate him. At one point, there was even a high-level assassin who focused on assassination!
But it didn't work.
No one can escape the scanning of the game compartment within ten meters. Now that Jiang Zai has money, the scanning function of the game warehouse is open 24 hours a day, and he is not afraid of anything.
Unless a master assassin makes a move, no one can defeat Jiang Zheng, and his strength is not what it used to be.
If the Cursed Sect did send a Master Assassin, it would not be such a small character as him, but King Terenus or Princess Kalia who would be assassinated.
"Oh my God, Mistress Nicholas smiled at me!" A blonde girl of seventeen or eighteen years old looked intoxicated and her face was crimson.
"Nonsense! You're smiling at me! He's so handsome, so powerful, and he's valued by Princess Kalia! By the way, I heard that he is only 15 years old! How old are you? Is it worthy of others? Only I deserve it! A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl said.
"How is that possible! Mistress Nicholas looks like he's sixteen or seventeen, right? What if you're 15 years old? I like old cows to eat tender grass, can you manage it? No, I'm not old at all, I, I'm only 14! ”
"Hehe, it's shameless!"
Hearing the quarrels and discussions behind him, Jiang Zheng was calm, because this scene had happened too many times and he was used to it.
A few minutes later, Jiang Zai arrived at the palace, because Princesses Kalia wanted to see him.
Coming to the hall, Jiang Zheng saw Uther, the messenger of light, and also saw three people.
A human in his forties, dressed in a Stormwind City King's suit, holding a heavy war hammer in his right hand, his eyes are blazing, and he is not angry.
A white-bearded dwarf who didn't know how many hundred years had lived, and still held a storm war hammer unique to brute hammer dwarves in his hand, Jiang Zheng could sense the elemental power of the shaman and the holy light energy of the paladin from his body, and the two were harmonious and unified.
A white-bearded dwarven musketeer dressed in heavy Ironforge dwarven armor and holding a silver-white double-barreled musket.
"Nicholas, this is General Marcus Jonathan, the Supreme Commander of the Stormwind Defense Force, who has brought with him a hundred members of the Stormwind Knights, as well as three thousand Stormwind elite soldiers. This is Duke Kurtaz Brutehammer, one of the Hammer Dwarven Lords of Eagle's Nest Mountain, and a student of Lord Uther, a lightbringer, a powerful high-ranking knight who brought with him five hundred Brute-Hammer Griffin Knights. ”
Kalia finally pointed to the dwarven musketeer and introduced, "This is General Hermet Nesinwari, the veritable first musketeer of Ironforge, and he has brought five hundred dwarven musketeers. In addition, he brought an exciting news and an unfortunate news. ”
Hemet Necinvari, the legendary hunter and dwarven musketeer alongside Lexa the Beastmaster, has a temper like most dwarves when he's not hunting.
"The good news is that King Magni has prepared the materials and set out to forge the Ember Bringer. In a week at the latest, a paladin artifact will be created. ”
Hermet Necinvari held a double-barreled musket in both hands, stared at Jiang Zai with those goshawk-like eyes, and said: "The bad news is that a dwarven musketeer who has returned from Northrend has brought back unfortunate news: Prince Arthas pulled out the rune sword 'Frostmourn' and killed his fighting teacher: King Magni's younger brother Muradin Copperbeard, he has completely fallen!" ”
