Chapter 172: Gianna's Gift
Gianna eventually agreed to return to Andorhar, although Gavin Rad's suggestion was largely motivated by the desire to send Gianna out of the dangerous county of Daron, but his reasons were very good.
It's just that Song Zheng feels that Gianna may not be able to dissuade Arthas.
As a prince, Arthas cares too much about who he is and wants to prove himself, and now the invasion of the undead is undoubtedly the best time to prove his strength and establish his merits, especially since he has just won the victory at Talenmir, and once his self-confidence is inflated, it will turn into pride, and it will be even more difficult to listen to the persuasion of others.
Of course, Song Zheng's own affairs were more troublesome, and Gavin Rad really wanted him to go to Quel'Thalas to ask for the High Elves' assistance.
"Baron, you are very good in courage and eloquence, you are the best candidate as an emissary, now that the country is in trouble, I hope that the baron can focus on the overall situation, and I will immediately send a messenger to explain this matter to His Majesty, presumably His Majesty will also agree to let the Baron you as an envoy to Quel'Thalas, if the Baron you can successfully persuade those elves to ask for reinforcements, it will definitely be a great contribution to Lordaeron, and it will be no problem to become a lord in the future." Gavinrad struggled to offer their own temptations, trying to persuade Song Zheng to go to Quel'Thalas.
This made Song Zheng quite speechless, but asking the High Elves for help was his suggestion, and it was not easy to refute it now, not to mention that he really wanted to save the refugees in Dalong County and change the fate of Lordaeron.
"Maybe it's time to go to Quel'Thalas, and hopefully Sylvanas' fate will be changed......" Song Zheng sighed to himself.
Sylvanas's fate may be more tragic than Arthas's, after all, Arthas had a choice, but in the history of Warcraft, Sylvanas was killed by Arthas and forcibly transformed into an undead, and since then she has to survive in the name of the Forsaken, and even her own relatives are hostile to her.
Although she later became the queen of the Undercity and even the leader of the tribe, she never regained her old happy days.
Song Zheng eventually agreed to Gavinrad's request and agreed to go to Quel'Thalas, while Gavinrad wrote a letter asking for help in the name of the Knights of the Silver Hand and handed it to him.
Song Zheng went out of the city with Gianna, but Gianna went to Andorhar, which was still safe, while he went north to Quel'Thalas.
Originally, Gavin Rad wanted to send an elite squad to protect him north, but he refused.
If he wants to force his way through the thousands of miles of territory in the north that is controlled by the undead scourge, it is obviously impossible to rely on only a small army, compared to the better to go north alone, with the 'stealth technique' and other thief skills he has just learned, he should have a good chance of avoiding the undead army.
But when he leaves, both Catherine and Lena Imbas want to follow him.
After hesitating for a while, Song Zheng decided to take Catherine with him.
This girl with elven blood has always been loyal to protect him, and she was born in Quel'Salas, so she knows a little about the environment over there, and more importantly, Catherine also has some thief skills, and her stealth skills are even stronger than Song Zheng's, and she can sneak with him to avoid danger.
There were a large number of undead troops outside the city of Talon County, but when they found that there were messengers in the city who wanted to break out, they only sent a few skeletons to chase after them, and they were quickly thrown away...... The undead apparently wanted them to call for help.
After passing through the camp of the Scourge of the Dead, Song Zheng had to be separated from Gianna.
"You have to be careful on your way north through the control area of the Scourge of the Dead, this ring can provide a kind of stealth magic, which may be used to save lives in times of danger." Gianna said as she took off a beautiful ring from her finger.
"Stealth magic?" Song Zheng couldn't help but be quite moved when he heard this, and hurriedly and carefully took the magic ring inlaid with a blue gem.
The mage does have stealth magic, but according to his understanding, in this world, stealth is a high-level magic, and it can only be used after reaching at least level sixteen.
"This ring was made by my teacher, and it was originally given to me for self-defense, even if the user does not have magic powers, it can be used even if it is not magical, but it can only be used three times." Gianna introduced.
"Can only be used three times...... But it's also very precious. Song Zheng said very gratefully, since this ring has been worn by Gianna, it is obvious that it is indeed very precious.
In Warcraft, the effect of the mage's stealth seems to be inferior to the thief's stealth, but in this real world, the thief's stealth is greatly limited, like the 'stealth' that Song Zheng learned from MI7 can only be used at night, and its effect may not be as good as the mage's stealth.
"I hope this ring can help you, I still have a few defensive magic items on me, but unfortunately they all need some magic power to activate, and it's useless to give them to you, General Harrison, I don't know if you have any useful magic items on you?" Gianna said, her gaze falling on Harrison, who had been protecting her.
"I don't have any magic props on one of my warriors, but if Baron Song Zheng arrives in Silvermoon City, he can go to a lady named Elena, as long as she reports my name, she will definitely receive you warmly." Harrison had a smile on his face.
"Elena? General Harrison, do you know the elves of Silvermoon City? Don't know how I can find her? Song Zheng couldn't help but be very surprised when he heard this.
"Haha, you can go directly to the largest tavern in the city when you get to Silvermoon City, Yelena is the owner of the tavern, as for why I know her, it's a long story, when I sailed with the admiral, I had arrived in Silvermoon City many times, and the admiral also had a ......" Harrison was saying a little proudly, and suddenly noticed that Gianna next to him seemed to have a bad face, and quickly stopped the topic, and then threw a dagger casually, saying that it could be used as his token.
Song Zheng couldn't help but be speechless for a while, but the dagger was very exquisite, the handle was inlaid with diamonds, and even the blade of the sword was engraved with exquisite patterns, and it was estimated that only those high elves who were bored because their lives were too long would make such a dagger that could not be used in actual combat at all.
