Chapter 599: Village Murder
readx;?“ With Andohal on the main road to the Tirisfard Glades and the hills of Hillsbrad to the south, and Uther the Hand of Light falling here, we should take Andohal first, militarily, strategically, and spiritually! ”
A young officer made an impassioned speech in the conference room, noticing the increasingly subtle expressions on the faces of the others, and as he could say a few words, he slapped the map with his hand as if that would express his determination. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Who put this idiot in? Loria, who sat at the top, turned her head to look at Clement, who pouted and said she didn't know.
Everyone knows the importance of Andorhar, but there are a large army of the Scourge gathered there, not the roaming rabble, but the powerful Scourge organized and disciplined and led by many lichs...... Of course, the Scarlet Crusaders can't be afraid of natural disasters, but now that this is a military conference, it is really embarrassing for everyone to make such an unrealistic and irrefutable proposal.
"I have a few different opinions." Anavaron coughed dryly, and the young officer who was overflowing with passion was his subordinate...... Drunk late last night, he squinted and walked to the front of the map, trying to find a valuable and not very difficult target from above, "Ah, here, how about here?" ”
He pointed to a trail south of Andorhar, where the Coalition garrison was said to be located.
Loria paused for a moment before saying, "You mean to attack the Alliance?" ”
"We helped them defeat the orcs and rebuild their homes, but they ignored our pleas for help when the natural disaster raged." Anavaron nodded in affirmation of Loria's statement: "Now, they dare to set foot on our homeland!" ”
The trail heads south through the junction of the Alterac Mountains and the Hillsbrad Hills...... It's not as good as Andohar, but it's not worthless.
Loria noticed everyone's expressions, most of the military commanders were gathered here, and she noticed that at least half of them were nodding slightly or echoing Anavaron's idea—the original Scarlet Crusaders still saw themselves as part of the Alliance, and after years of isolation, so many people opposed and even hated the Alliance.
She was born in Stormwind, and she has personal friendships with some of the Alliance's leaders...... None of this was a problem, the interests of the Scarlet Crusade were the most important, and that was the responsibility and the idea that came naturally to her when she sat in this position.
The meeting was still going on, but her mind drifted to somewhere else, it wasn't a big deal to pit the Alliance, but a passage to the south wasn't worth tearing your face with the Alliance...... Is there a way to get the best of both worlds?
Lure a bunch of undead to attack an Alliance outpost? This is too much to break the moral bottom line, and the struggle between human beings over interests should not be related to public enemies.
Sneak attack disguised as a bandit? The Alliance is not stupid......
Take a bunch of people and corral them to forcibly disarm and expel them? It's a little less intense, and as long as you don't kill people, it's not a mortal feud that can't be resolved, but it's still a big risk.
After all, the greatest value of the Southbound Passage is trade, and it is not worth offending the biggest potential trading partner unless she can do business with the Horde...... Don't think about it, she can't contact the tribe, let alone suppress the army's support for her.
"Be careful."
A muffled warning sound was followed by the rattle of cups and plates falling to the ground, and a long dagger fell behind Loria, and its owner, a guard in charge of pouring water, was twisted to the ground by Ragnes.
Loria looked around in a daze, and it took a long time to realize that this was actually an assassination against herself, she was a little incredulous, and felt a little hurt, wasn't everything she did for freedom and justice? Isn't it worthy of love and respect?
The assailant was dragged away, and when he was approaching, he was still shouting 'a clean world for the sake of blood,' and the chamber became unusually silent, with officers muttering about the loopholes in the security measures and suggestions for improvement, and Clement whispering 'don't care, most people like you'.
Ignorance? A feeding frenzy? Or is it an ulterior motive? None of this matters, it's impossible to stop once the change starts, Loria pursed her lips and raised her voice, "Of course I know that many people like me, almost as many as they hate me. ”
Is it a self-deprecating or proud statement, or both.
"So be it for today, I will consider your opinions, and for the time being, carry out the previous conservative strategy, continue to strengthen the southern defense line of the valley, widen the underground passage to the west, and restore abandoned farms and cultivated land."
Loria turned to leave the conference room, and Ragnes followed, and after a few words of intent to find out if there was any organization behind the assailants, she left, leaving her alone and slowly walking out of the castle and wandering around the small city.
Loria walked slowly through every building in the city as she always walked, smiling at everyone who nodded at her, but unlike usual, she remained on her guard.
Just like she did in the wilderness where natural disasters were raging.
……
There are many people named Fish, and there are many people with the surname Vic, but the name Fish? Vic is the only one in the village, and yes, he's so special.
On an early spring morning, the newly built village was unusually quiet, and the stupid people left their homes to dig the ground...... Hopelessly stupid man who still thinks about working in a place full of food...... But there was still a special presence in the group of mundane creatures like him, the only other person in the village who did not use his own house.
It's just Fish? Vic lives in the woods, and she uses the help of a friend's house...... Hmph, he is really unique, she is still too young, too unconscious, still under the fence, without the passion to completely sever ties and destroy all old and rotten things.
Yes, he is a member of the glorious Scarlet Cosmos, and although he has not yet been recognized by the Order, he is still under observation, but it will not be long before he succeeds, first developing this not-so-special woman, and then destroying the village together, and ruining the plans of the aristocratic remnant Loria and her lackey Ann Linse.
'Felicia? Saratoga & Turnip'
Vic was illiterate, but he recognized the newly-built little house by the carrot carved on the door, and he pushed the door in, completely ignoring the law that 'no trespasser into a private house without a valid reason', the warm living room was not large, and two small rooms were connected, and Fish soon heard a slight sound from behind one of the doors, and she must have been the only one who was still squatting in the house during the day.
Striding forward, Fish pushed the door open with all his might, ready to give his impassioned speech, only to be stunned by the shocking image before him.
"What are you doing in broad daylight!"
"Huh? Who are you? Don't know how to knock on doors? Vilka was holding a turnip in her hand, and she was frightened by one, and then threw it out in anger.
Fish, who was hit by a turnip and didn't stand firm? Vic's head hits the doorknob, pawn. (To be continued.) )
