Chapter 29: The Covenant of the Deceased King
Cursing came and went, but in contrast, it was the Prince of Alsace who took the lead who was much more polite. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Everyone, please be quiet!" Oss stood up and shouted, and the cacophony of voices in the hall fell silent under his majestic gaze.
Then Oss walked up to the Prince of Arthas, crouched down and said slowly, "Actually, what I said is not right, Your Highness. The so-called value of holding power, most of the time, is the posture of the strong in front of ordinary people, or the means of playing and demagoguery. A truly strong man is always cautious and restrained in his approach to strength! Well, like our Uncle Tirio, and your teacher, Lord Uther, they never think of power as everything, let alone as the whole of life. ”
Tirio, who was sitting on the side, suddenly became embarrassed. It is true that Oss is much younger than he is, but in Azeroth, age has never been, and will not be, the standard of status. However, Tirio, who had already stood up, was about to humbly decline the compliment when he was stopped by Oss with a smile.
Over the course of several days, Oss and Tirio had been on the same page, enough to foster a strong understanding between them.
"Then why did you do that last night, and say that again?" Arthas took the initiative to get up from his chair, and he asked heartily with his head tilted his head after he lifted Osace with his own hands.
"Alas......" Oss sighed as he remembered his several persuasions to Kael'thas last night.
"Os, is there something that makes you embarrassed?" Tirio asked with concern.
"One of the elements that open the Devil's Gate is in Quel'Thalas, and it's also the third target of the orcs." Oss finally told the truth, "I deliberately spent time alone with Kael'thas last night to distance myself from you just to persuade him. ”
"The Well of the Sun?" Gianna suddenly asked, her eyes shining, "Is this what it is?" I heard and saw it, and as soon as you came up, you mentioned these four words, and they immediately became nervous, and finally launched a direct attack! ”
"......" Oss looked at Gianna, this was not the first time he had praised her at the age of ten, "You are so smart, Your Highness Gianna. ”
"So what exactly is this Well of the Sun?" Gianna asked curiously.
Oss's brow furrowed slightly, pacing back and forth down the hall. And everyone in the hall, including the two Highnesses, Tirio, and the officers, all waited patiently for an answer.
In the end, out of the desire to protect Queldore, and for some other reason, Oss chose to hide part of the truth, but he only explained: "It's a well, but a well with a lot of energy!" That energy was enough to sustain the Demon Gate, to keep the Burning Legion flowing into Azeroth, and enough to supply the most powerful demons to descend. ”
The hall fell silent again, until Tirio closed the coffin on the matter: "If this news reaches the kingdom, it will surely cause an uproar!" I'm afraid no one would have imagined that the orcs went all the way north for such a thing. Os, maybe you don't know very well, Gilneth and Alterac didn't want to go to war in the first place, and the two Majesties were willing to provide supplies for the sake of Sir Lothar and the only remaining crown prince of the House of Urion, I am worried about ......"
Tirio's implication was that if the news reached Lordaeron, it would spread to the rest of the nations. In this way, the kingdoms of Gilneth and Alterac, who were not interested in war in the first place, must have a good reason to choose to stand by and watch.
In fact, in view of the growing contradictions between the entire human race and Queldore, when the time comes, if the narrow-minded nobles arouse public opinion and unanimously oppose the war with the broad masses of the people, it may not be impossible for the six northern kingdoms to take the initiative to choose a truce with the orcs.
"The general trend is that they have no choice but to participate in the war!" Oss said very politely, his left hand rested on the hilt of the long sword at his waist, and his upright posture was like the edge of the mountains, "It is true that the Well of the Sun is the target of the orcs, but the second target of the orcs is in the hands of our human race!" What's more, Uncle Tirio, have you forgotten what I said earlier, that the orcs are no longer under the control of the Abyss Lord Maloneus, and their twisted glory is based on the belief in defeating all enemies! ”
A period of awe-inspiring words, as if it represented the entire human race declaring war on the orcs, made everyone's hearts tremble. And Oss dared to call the two kings them, which really made everyone tremble.
After a long time, Tirio said: "That's true, but there is information about the orcs, including the Burning Legion, your majesty has no way of knowing. Even if the news is transmitted back to the kingdom, it will probably take some time to investigate and gain trust. I'm still worried that all of this will be taken as alarmist! That would be very bad for you! ”
Tirio's heartfelt words of concern moved Oss. He said to Tirio with a smile on his face, "That's why I followed the envoys to Silvermoon City. The predecessor of Queldore, who experienced the battle 10,000 years ago, the elves should know the priorities! And the alliance starts with them! ”
"Alas......" Tirio sighed, his brow furrowed and his heart heavy.
"Ha, don't be pressured, Uncle Tirio." Oss stepped forward and patted Tirio on the shoulder, "The Godfather told me that I didn't need to meet any targets on this mission to Silvermoon City. So you can rest assured, the elves will definitely send troops. ”
"I just think that the whole thing seems to be getting bigger and bigger, and it's no longer between us humans and orcs, or between a few races and kingdoms."
"That's right, since the moment the Dark Door opened, it has been a matter of concern to all of Azeroth!" Auston paused, "Including the gods." ”
"Uh......" Tirio suddenly felt the pressure on his shoulders heavier.
After a discussion meeting, everyone dispersed to rest. However, with the physical strength of the creatures of Azeroth, the day and night rush of the past few days was nothing at all.
For the rest of the day, the envoys stayed in the inn, waiting for news from Queldore. And it wasn't until after nightfall that a group of elven guards came here to inform the envoys that they would meet His Majesty the Elven King when the sun rose the next day! The number of people was also set at four, the titular ambassador of the legation, Prince Arthas, the princess of the kingdom of Kurtilas, Gianna, and the actual speaker of the legation, Tirio. Finally, it is the Os, who is highlighted by Kael'thas and the person whom the Elven King Anastarian really wants to meet!
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, Oss changed into a pure black satin dress that the godfather had already prepared, and followed Arthas, Gianna, and Tirio in a low-key manner.
Along the way, all of them are extremely delicate in Silvermoon City, but there are almost no elves walking around. In the empty streets, Oss saw the most things, except for the unactivated arcane golems that looked like beautiful ornaments.
After crossing a corridor hundreds of meters long, the huge courtyard with a cheerful atmosphere is the throne of the Sun Chaser!
Crossing the arch bridge and going deep into the throne, the two teams of the Guardian of the Breakers who had already been divided into two teams stood majestically. Directly ahead, there are huge fan-shaped stairs with hundreds of steps. The two flagpoles made of pure gold are dozens of meters high, surrounded by a circle of crimson ribbons. At the foot of the foot, a delicate and ornate crimson carpet stretches from the arch bridge to the top of the staircase.
Walking up the stairs and getting up close and personal with the Tower of the Sunfury, Oss felt the tower's power more clearly. It wasn't just the arcane crystal land's magic fluctuations that hung above the Tower of the Sunwrath, and it was already embedded in it. There are also a large number of surging powerhouses in the Tower of the Sun Fury!
Enter it, the purple sara tent is resplendent and beautiful! And on the throne in the deepest part of the hall on the first floor of the Tower of the Sunrage, the Elven King Anastarian Sunseeer sits with a crown on his head!
However, as the three Arthas approached the throne, Os's brow furrowed. In front of him, the prince of Arthas, who had been walking at the forefront, had a small body that staggered, and when he was still more than thirty meters away from the throne, he had stopped, and could no longer move forward!
Oss looked at the left and right sides, and the elven mages holding their staffs were angry for a while, and they couldn't bear it.
"You Terrans!" Without waiting for the two sides to greet each other, the Elven King Anastarian actually said directly, "Betrayed us twice in a row!" And we, Queldore, have never betrayed you Terrans! ”
The Elven King's voice was spread by the magic and rumbled throughout the Tower of the Sunfury! At the same time as he spoke, the elven mages on the left and right sides also increased their spiritual power to output and suppress together!
The Prince of Arthas faltered, gritting his teeth and refusing to fall. Gianna, who was an apprentice magician, turned pale, and unconsciously shook Arthas's hand and asked for help. After that, Tirio, who was a paladin, could only barely resist the attack of spiritual power, and cold sweat broke out.
"However, I will still keep the covenant of the deceased king and send troops to your aid!" The Elven King Anastarian did not pause, and calmly announced, "Tell the descendants of Soladin that a troop of rangers is his work to thank his ancestors!" I also hope that this time, you Terrans can truly learn to be grateful! Now, you're leaving! ”
"A ranger army, that's not enough!" Oss took a step forward and said in a loud voice. His voice was blessed by the power of the mountains, thick and loud, not losing half a point to the Elf King, and it also echoed in the entire Tower of the Sun Fury! At the same time, his vast spiritual power instantly exploded and expanded, enveloping the three of Arthas indestructibly.
The Elven King looked at Os, and the golden light that filled his eyes suddenly lit up.
On the side of the throne, Prince Kael'thas asked, "Your words are not credible, Terran boy!" Last time, those ungrateful people of Dalaran used the same reason to deceive us that the devil had come! And that damned woman has usurped the power of our dedication, causing the two archmagers to die of weakness! Now, my Father has pardoned your lying, don't get an inch! ”
The elven mages on the left and right sides had clearly sensed the resistance of Osdi's spiritual power, and while shocked, they began to lock on Osdi's full force to suppress it.
But on the throne, the Elven King Anastarian was even more shocked than the Magus who belonged to the Silvermoon Council who were fighting against Os's spiritual power!
At this moment, the Elven King, who possessed the treasure of Quel'Salas, the Emerald Orb, had been determined the moment Os's spiritual power expanded! The Terran boy who doesn't seem to have any problems in front of him is definitely an illusion!
