Chapter 98: Frost's Sorrow, Arthas!
(Thanks to Keihara for the 500 tip!) 100 tips for shards! )
Gavinrad is different from the other big knights!
He is from Stormwind, and as a member of the Stormwind Knights during World War I, he followed Sir Lothar, the "Lion of Azeroth", to participate in the war with the orcs, and killed an unknown number of orcs with his own hands, which was appreciated by Sir Lothar.
Before the start of the Second War, he was introduced by Lothar to Archbishop Fao of the Holy Light, becoming the fifth paladin after Uther and others.
In other words, before he became a paladin, he was a powerful knight!
After becoming a paladin, his devotion to the Holy Light was definitely not lower than the others, or even higher. In fact, he was known for his "piety".
After the end of World War II, he gradually rose in status, eventually surpassing Dasohan and Old Fording to become the number 2 of the Knights of the Silver Hand.
In fact, Uther, the Lightbringer, is more of a spiritual leader, a spokesman for the Light, and is not in charge of specific matters. The entire Order of the Silver Hand is managed by Gavinrad and Dasohan. The management skills learned from the Knights of the Storm and Lothar make Gavin Rad more suitable than others to be the leader of the Knights.
Gavinrad, as a paladin, may not be as favored by the Light as Uther the Lightbringer, or perhaps as good as Tulayan, Dasohan, or even Old Fordin, but he has an ability that no one else has:
He had a better ability to read people than the others, and while everyone praised Arthas, he was the only one who did not think highly of the prince, who was pampered, hesitant, fragile and not pious enough. If it weren't for the faces of King Terenus and Uther, he wouldn't have been silent!
In fact, at that time, Arthas did not receive the baptism of the Holy Light immediately, and waited for a while to be baptized and become a paladin. In other words, the Light, like Gavinrad, thinks that Arthas is not pious enough and his heart is not firm enough, and questions his qualifications to become a paladin!
Gavinrad Doom, many people think that he has no sense of existence among the five knights, and he is not even as famous as the great lord Mograini who is the second generation of paladins, but Jiang Zai knows that it is because he died too early. In fact, this great knight's reputation and status are now second only to the Lightbringers Uther and Tulayan!
If there is anyone in the upper echelons of the Knights of the Silver Hand who wants to believe that Arthas will destroy the country, then it is only him!
…………
Between the continents of Lordaeron and Northrend, the North Sea.
Several warships were sailing from northwest to southeast, and standing at the bow of the ship was a man wearing gray-black armor, a gray-black cloak, a gray-black hood, and a rune sword that emitted cold cold light......
Death Knight!
Alsace!
His Royal Highness the former Prince Lordaeron has now become a literal death knight, and the most powerful death knight of all time, a legendary death knight even more terrifying than the first death knight in history, "Talon Bloodfiend"!
He has white hair and cold eyes.
Lordaeron...... I am back! He whispered softly, his face expressionless.
"Yes, you are going back, my Royal Highness." A guard stepped forward, respectful.
He is Captain Farrick, the lieutenant of Arthas, and now a Death Knight, a Death Knight who has been killed and resurrected by Arthas himself!
He stood on the left behind Arthas, and another Death Knight, who was also an Adjutant of Arthas, Marvion, stood on the right, and they had been Arthas's most loyal subordinates since their deaths, and always would be.
Arthas didn't say anything more, and his mind began to wander, as is often the case these days.
The thrill of revenge, the indifference of losing his soul, the hope that goodness still exists, now he has been divided into two halves, good and evil exist at the same time, he is a veritable schizophrenic!
Half of the soul was devoured by the rune demon sword Frost's sorrow and fused with the frost's sorrow, while the other half of the soul was still good, imprisoned by the frost's sorrow, imprisoned in the eternal ice coffin cell, and never saw the light of day.
Frost Sorrow has been trying to devour or destroy the good soul, but it is difficult to do so, because everything is up to Arthas to make his own decisions, but now he is still good.
After all, he embarked on this path to save his country and people, didn't he?
Although, he went astray!
"Enemy attack!"
Suddenly, the guards gave a high-pitched warning, and Arthas raised his head and looked into the distant sky.
Black pressed in one piece.
His eyes have been transformed by the sorrow of frost, although it looks like a hollow, but in fact he has obtained super vision that ordinary people can't have, so he quickly saw the specific situation, and his face finally began to fluctuate, there is remorse, there is love, there is pain, and there is more determination!
"Griffin Knight? Kurtaz? Uther? And also...... Jaina! ”
The griffons quickly approached and then circled over the boats, three of which quickly descended and were less than twenty meters away from Alsace.
At this distance, no matter who they are, they can see each other's faces clearly, and for legendary paladins and archmages, they can clearly perceive the terrifying energy on each other's bodies, and the terrifying evil hidden in mortal bodies!
"Arthas! You, what the hell happened to you! You, how did you become like this! Gianna felt chills run all over.
Although everything she had seen with her own eyes, and the warnings of the mysterious prophet, had led her to believe that Arthas had fallen and that he would bring disaster to Lordaeron and the whole world, she had always had illusions.
Perhaps, Alsace is able to resist evil? Perhaps, he will come back in good condition?
But now everything in front of her was telling her:
Don't fantasize anymore, it's impossible!
"Boy, you smell of the dead! You feel the same way as those hateful Death Knights of World War II! You've become a Death Knight! Boy, do you know what you did! You have turned your back on your country! Your people! Your last name! Uther said in a majestic voice, gritting his teeth.
Hate iron does not make steel!
After all, he is the Light Guide of Arthas, and he is the Paladin Mentor of Arthas! It was he who personally led Arthas on the path of light, and he personally recommended Arthas to join the Knights of the Silver Hand!
At this moment, Uther remembered what Gavinrad had once said to him:
"Arthas? He was hesitant in his heart, his belief in the Light was not religious, and he was not qualified to join the Knights of the Silver Hand! ”
At that time, he shook his head and chuckled, believing that Arthas would be the best paladin, and that his status as the crown prince, and future king, would also allow the Knights of the Silver Hand to develop better and better promote the Way of Light.
Now that I think about it, Gavin Rad's ability to read people is indeed above himself!
