Chapter 67: The Convergence (I)

We only traveled a short distance north, and when the view of the Stormwind gates was gone, we stopped. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Yes, after all, I don't know which way to go, and the kind of appearance that I put on in Varian just now is mostly a show....

"How we got to the Badlands and the rendezvous of Uther. ”

I asked Marshal Stormwind, and he was puzzled and even looked surprised.

"Rendezvous with Uther, how did you choose this direction?"

"Then where do you think I'm going, and besides, isn't this the north?"

I asked rhetorically, and he quickly gave me an answer that struck me as if I had gotten the situation wrong.

"It's the North, yes, but I thought you were going to Northshire Abbey. ”

"Now is not the time to go there and talk to the believers there about the Light, and we should wait until the war is over. ”

"Oh, I see, do you think you'll get to the Badlands by heading north?"

The marshal sneered, as if he were laughing at my innocence, and I was surprised that he only now understood my intentions, or....

"Of course, isn't he on the north side of Stormwind?" I thought it would be a mistake to print it clearly on the map, and just as I wanted Faric to show it to confirm, he even preemptively asked my captain of the guard to do so, and laid it out for me.

"Your Highness, you can see that Blackstone Mountain is the only checkpoint to the north, if you think that with us people you can cross through..."

"Isn't this the only way? aren't there two other ways to the east that seem to pass through there. I pointed to the two corridors on the right side of the map. "This map shows that it's not a dead end. ”

"This is your map of Lordaeron. ”

"Is there a mistake with the map?"

I asked, and he shook his head

"No, it's just not that detailed. "The road to the east is impassable in the talc area, and the one in the middle..."

"What's wrong?"

I questioned again, and he shook his head again, pausing for a moment before explaining.

"Maps don't usually show the name of the place, but the place has a name. ”

"Got a name?"

"Yes, Your Highness. Remember what you said on the ship that apart from the Brute Hammer, the third dwarf of Copperbeard? They were called the Black Iron Dwarves, a dwarven nation that once competed with the Copperbeard Dwarves, but sank overnight. "Marshal Stormwind explained our doubts in a serious manner, and I could even feel the fear in him. "And this is their birthplace, Thorrisson, through whom our Stormwind founders came to Stormwind a long time ago, and I think he should be able to reach the Wastelands. But now it is the land of the dead that even the orcs did not dare to set foot in when they were at their strongest. ”

"Why don't you dare to step in, isn't it more inhospitable than Draenor?"

"I don't know! No one has been there since they disappeared. ”

"No one has ever been, so that's not a reason not to step in. ”

Falic also asked, and he sighed.

"Actually, from time to time, there are dwarven-like madmen who escape, and among the voices they can discern, it is actually the word fire demon in dwarven language. ”

"Flame Demon?" I seemed to think of something, "Yes, isn't this the Fire Demon Ragnaros," I asked in a vague attempt to understand, "So there's a demonic teleportation there, and no one dares to touch it?"

"No, there is a factual basis. A long time ago, the elves had sent people here to observe. Later, in order to prevent the spread of fear, the Council of Tirisfa and the Guardians were formed. ”

"Oh, what a coincidence?" I replied as a matter of course, after all, I knew that Tirith had been founded to protect all of Azeroth from demonic magic and from the mistakes of the High Elf ancestors. But Wendthor was convinced that it had a lot to do with it.

"It's no coincidence, Gul'dan once sent people there, and then never went there again, and most of the demons that the Guardians had picked up in the past came from there. ”

"Well, let's not go into that. "I know that there are some things that he doesn't understand, and that this realization may stem from the elves' way of concealing their true purpose, and yes they still don't want others to know about their dark history. So I motioned for everyone not to discuss this issue, but to prepare for tonight's rest.

I think that since I have come here, it is not impossible to go to the Church of the Light, which is second only to the archbishop. "Let's go to the North County Abbey first, rest for the night, and then go north. ”

And even then, the marshal still questioned my plans.

"You don't really want to go north by land, no matter which way you go, there is no return. ”

"Of course, I went straight north, but I had another way to get through. ”

"The other way?" "This time it was the marshal's turn, and I just laughed at it.

"Yes, there's a friend of mine here," I snapped my fingers at the marshal in the same way as Ronin, yes, there are still some things that I can do. "Anyway, we can get there safely, but before we do, you'll have to take us to the North County Abbey to rest. ”

"Of course you can. ”

Instead of questioning anything, Windsol motioned for us to follow his direction.

The North-County Abbey is not very far from Stormwind, starting from Stormwind at noon, and arriving at its destination in the evening, it looks like a large courtyard that is a bit declining on the outside, once upon a time I thought that the Archbishop's Church was very simple, but when I came here, I knew what it meant to be simple, and the border surrounded by a fence believed that it could not even stop the invasion of wild beasts, of course, this premise was that there were no guards outside. A few of the bungalows that were even decent were the so-called churches, and if it weren't for the cross with a paladin's emblem on it, no one would have thought that this had anything to do with the Silver Hand. But I can't say anything about my personal opinions.

After a brief explanation to the guards, an elderly man dressed very much like the archbishop walked out enthusiastically, and I knew his identity at once, yes, the mentor had told me many times that there was a senior disciple in Stormwind who had trained Alonso before him.

"You are Bishop Benedictas. I immediately bowed to the old man, and he smiled like the archbishop himself.

"Your Highness Arthas, I didn't expect to see you at this time. Benedictas blessed me with the Light and then turned to the captain of the guard beside me, "And Falik, I've heard about your deeds, congratulations on becoming a full-fledged paladin." ”

"Makes you laugh. ”

"I think we'll be here for one night and then head north. ”

"Of course, for me that's what it should do. He nodded. "We will prepare the room and food for you. ”

He said so, and went to make arrangements. And I couldn't help but be a little surprised to see that something was wrong with his back and what I had just said, why he wasn't as enthusiastic about me as I thought, and why he didn't warn us of the safety of our north. It's just that I didn't think much about it at the time, after all, I still have my own things, such as contacting a friend.

As soon as everyone had settled, I stopped Melvin and asked him to bring out the crystal ball he had taken out in Crassus, and I knew that I would be able to get in touch with his original owner. So I tried to call his name through him and get him to come here as soon as possible.

And not long after I was shouting at this thing, and before I even questioned whether he could hear me, I saw him.

"Arthas, you need my help. "Crassus, who looks old, greeted me, and it was indeed not necessary for me, who knew the identity of the red dragon, to salute me in a human way

"I didn't expect you to be able to teleport directly over such a long distance. ”

"Actually, I wasn't in Dalaran just now..."Crassus didn't say anything after explaining, yes I knew he must be accompanying her queen, after all, their lair was really not very far from here.

"I want you to take dragon form and send me and my men to the Badlands. ”

"Arthas, do you think it's necessary?"

In response to my request, Crassus looked at the number of guards behind him and immediately showed dissatisfaction, after all, this would reveal his identity, but I knew how to persuade this mage.

"I think it's very necessary this time... Trust me, I have to get there quickly. ”

"Oh well. ”

Crassus nodded reluctantly, and I couldn't help but feel proud of this, because his agreement meant that he would not miss the opportunity to build his merits.

"Tomorrow in the early hours of the morning, you just fly to the gate of the monastery, no one knows that it will be you, of course I mean just take our men with you, and the war horses stay here. ”

"But I'm afraid I'm too many humans to handle alone, so I'll call another Red Dragon Observer if you want. She might be willing to help you too. ”

"Of course. "I happily accepted Crassus's offer, and I noticed that he used the word 'she' instead of him, and I couldn't help but wonder who she was. "Is she a 'human' like you?"

I asked, and Crassus did not answer my question directly, but explained it in another way.

"She's probably more interested in negotiating a deal with you. ”

"Talking about a deal, how does it sound like a goblin, if she wants to, then I'll talk to her about this so-called deal tonight. "Actually, what I want to say is the Red Dust Woman, or that my intention is so, of course I can't say that, but to reply to Crassus with another understanding.

Yes, I can't help but get lustful about her, if she really looks like a human or an elven woman, it must be similar to Alexstaza....but unfortunately I said it, not what I thought.

"That's right, she's a goblin!I'll let her see you alone tonight....then we'll see you at five o'clock in the morning. ”

"That's it. ”

I tried to answer as calmly as I could, and Crassus smiled as well and vanished.

Although I was a little sorry to know this result, I still had some illusions in my heart, yes, the people of Stormwind generally hated goblins, which meant that she would definitely find a chance to meet me alone, and at that time I might be able to let her transform into a human form and show it in front of me. I thought so, after dinner and announcing my plans to leave in the early morning. I went back to the bedroom early and waited for her arrival.
