Chapter One Hundred and Two: Continuing the Journey (I)

I sporadically remember that in my dream it was in the snow, and a familiar figure stabbed me with a sword, but I don't remember it at all. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info I shook my head and thought about it, but I still couldn't think of any details. And time doesn't allow me to think about things that don't make sense, after all, it's almost time to assemble.

Although this dream made me break out in a cold sweat, coupled with the environment without a sense of disobedience and the weather that was also snowing, I still had palpitations. But the reality may be that I should be thankful for it, because of this, I didn't lie in bed, if I had slept at this time, it would have been a good thing...

I quickly put on my armor and got out of the tent, and at this moment everyone was ready to pack up in advance at the specified time, maybe they thought that this time they would soon be able to embark on the journey back south to save their homeland, but this time it wasn't quite... I walked at the front of the line as usual, but my face had become a little solemn, the kind of solemn look that I didn't know the news yesterday morning. And I didn't ride the 'invincible', for which some people have noticed my particular demeanor.

For example, I just peeked at Sylvanas with my peripheral vision....she doesn't seem to be out of the ordinary, at least that's how it feels. I sighed and thought, but I can't pay too much attention to her at this time, because at this moment I have to deal with the decisions that everyone and myself, that is, myself, will make.

"I think you all know that Gilneth turned his soldiers into werewolves..."I walked to the middle of the line and started my opening speech, but looking at the fact that everyone was not touched, it seemed that everyone really knew about it, so I continued. "Yes, that's something that everyone knows, but I'd like to tell you the more terrible news, as far as I know, the soul of the Grey Temples has been taken over by that demon, so we are not going back against the small country of Gilneth to the southwest, but the demon-strengthened regular army, enemies who have been transformed into monsters like the undead we have seen. ”

Speaking of which, the soldiers below began to talk about it, maybe they didn't expect this to be the result, but for me, this is the best time for me to express my will.

"Quiet, listen to me!" I raised my hammer and sent out a wave of light to draw everyone's attention anew, and then continued towards everyone who were watching me. "This is the plan of the demons....they will make us withdraw our troops, and then create new panic and threats at other appropriate times and places, and we will be held back by the demons, and even if we can destroy Gilneth this time, we will have to fight for our lives in order to destroy the horrors created by the demons... I fear that by that time they will be expanded again, even so strong that we will not be able to resist. But now, if we continue our journey here, I think we will soon be able to clear their main force and avoid future threats...."

Just as I was about to continue to say that I wanted to keep some of my soldiers behind, one of Uther's generals sharply interrupted my speech and objected.

"Do you want to give up the capital, even if we win, so what, the relatives and homes we are guarding will be destroyed, so what's the point of destroying the demons!"

It was clear that he could represent the voices of the wider people, and many of the soldiers below were clamoring to show their support for the general's opinion.

I could only look at their objections with a serious gaze, not because he had offended me, but because it seemed to make me realize that it might be more difficult for me to go to the Maidivins than I thought..... but there didn't seem to be anything too out of the ordinary, just expecting me not to give such an order.

"How could I give up on my relatives! I just want to leave some soldiers to continue their unfinished journey, we can't let the devil's plan succeed, we must make them pay the price now, otherwise we will still be threatened by the enemy in the future, think about it, you don't know when, our relatives and family members will be drugged by others and become undead, and even they will create or summon more terrible demons to our world, so we must ensure that the country is not ** At the same time, we must also leave some of us to continue our unfinished business, because this is the only way to prevent us from falling into the trap of the devil....."

There was no speech for a long time, but after a while everyone nodded their heads in agreement with my proposal, and then another key question was raised by my master, and this time he used an honorific title for the first time, although he did not recognize his identification at this time.

"Your Highness, how many people are you going to let stay. ”

"You and my guards and the soldiers in the area around Stratholme, all the rest go back. I said this, and everyone did not have much opinion, so they got ready, and some of the soldiers who were about to go back also put down their luggage and stood by, and most of the troops continued to listen to the next arrangement, and no one objected.

Yes, that's how I chose it because Stratholme would be the last to be threatened by the werewolves, and if the undead fought back, they would be the front line, so they were much more skeptical about experiencing the undead than the wolves who were just rumored. In other words, everyone is more acceptable to this result.

But I can't just keep us humans, of course I have to keep the dwarves, after all, I have to have fire support and reconnaissance after the loss of the rangers, and since the undead don't have ice dragons, griffins should be very useful. Of course, the premise is that we can effectively destroy the Crypt Demons...

Destroy the Crypt Demons... But I didn't have a weapon left against them, Gianna reminded me, but in her voice I recognized that I had overlooked something, such as the safety of certain people.

"Arthas, how can you be without the support of a mage!"

"Because the werewolves who fight against Gilneth need mages more, and I can't guarantee that Dalaran will fully intervene in this war....." I turned my head to Gianna, who was in doubt, and explained, but it was at this time that I seemed to see the vague figure in my dream, and my head was in a bit of a trance about it, although it didn't affect my current understanding...."You lead everyone back now, and if I have a mistake here, then you will become Lordaeron instead of me..."

Gianna was puzzled by my answer at first, but when she realized something, she immediately grabbed my hand and refuted it.

"Arthas, why won't you let me stay?"

"Because I thought I promised your father that you would go back safely...."

I groaned, now that I thought about it, I could only find this excuse, but how could this be gagged.

"You swear we'll be together forever! ”

Gianna looked a little aggrieved, and my buddies stepped forward to express their opinions.

"Your Highness, I will stay behind to complete the task of continuing the Northern Expedition for you, believe me, I can at least delay the progress of the demons. "Faric seems to have realized that the purpose of my stay was to contain the enemy, but how could he know the deeper reason, and it was still difficult to explain this to him at this time. But I didn't explain how I could send them away, and now I can only watch them shoot at me.

"Your Highness, let's just finish it for you, the country will need you in the future. "Ronin said to him the same thing as Falik, but at the moment I seem to recognize his importance, so I don't choose to be silent...

"No, I must stay, and you and Winresa can't stay here, you should go back against Gilneth!" I rebuked my most important friend in front of the whole army, and it was evident that he would not be willing to obey my orders, and he had good reasons for doing so.

"My hometown of Fort Hearthplace belongs to the Stratholme region, and of course I'm here to stay, and you didn't swear to keep me safe. ”

"Then you can ask Crassus when you go back..."I was going to say that I promised the red dragon to keep you safe, but I don't think anyone would believe such a promise... I can only try to find other excuses, but what can I find, public and private, these friends will not be separated from me at this time.

Yes, and I don't want some things to be good or bad or not to be witnessed with my friends, but things are not so simple, as a descendant, I know very well his impression of Wen Leisa's future generations. If they become undead with me, then we can't guarantee the future at all, so I'm going to try to dissuade this guy anyway.

I glanced at Wen Lesa first, but I thought it would be better for Ronin to use Wen Lessa's safety as a bargaining chip to persuade him not to stay. But it doesn't seem to work here. I sighed again, perhaps there was only one way to get him to obey my orders, and that was to tell him the truth.

"Luo Ning, I need you more in the future. I walked into Luo Ning with a murderous face, grabbed him by the neck and told him the real reason. "You'll have a mission bigger than saving the Red Dragon Queen in the future, so you two must not stay here. ”

I let go of him, I thought he would probably be silent and thinking about what I was saying, but it wasn't, he just looked at me more firmly, and did the same, pulled my neck and arms around me, and whispered to me.

"Arthas, if you insist on staying, Winresa and I can go, but the person you love the most must stay, for this is the warning that Nozdom gave me that time. ”

"Warning?" he said and let go of me, and the words surprised me.

I looked at Luo Ning suspiciously, and he didn't look back at the moment to return to the first position, and Wen Resa hesitated for a moment and followed....I really didn't expect him to tell me about this at this time, but if it was really as he said, maybe the Bronze Dragon King really sensed the gears of fate. But I still hope to do it from the bottom of my heart, after all, I still want to be with her no matter what happens.

"Gianna, you stay. I hesitated for a moment but followed Luo Ning's advice, so I approached Gianna to comfort me, and my mood at the moment was the same as his performance, and I smiled. But it seemed that she was still a little confused, and I think I must have wanted to know the details of what I had just talked to Ronin, but now was not the time to explain, and I couldn't explain to her the things I still had doubts about.

"Arthas..... you insist on staying here?" Muradin, perhaps my master would like to leave here with his own people, but since I have chosen him, he will not refuse the request of his beloved disciple. And as a general, he should also know how hard I am doing this, maybe, but in any case, I have to be confident at this time, after all, the troops left behind want to go home alive.

"Yes, I must eliminate the threat of the undead once and for all...."I repeated the command before turning to another person, I thought it might be my last words to her. "Sylvanas, you lead the group back. "I looked at General Ranger, and she still didn't say anything to me. It seems that she has chosen to be indifferent to me to the end, but even so, I have something to ask the Ranger General for. "If you can, I hope you can continue to help us fight Gilneth and..."

"Arthas, you still want to use me again. "She was angry at me again, but it didn't seem to surprise me, for I couldn't hope or put any hope in her after last night.

"I see, then please lead everyone back..."

"We elves have no obligation to your alliance, don't try to command us. Before I could finish speaking, she was angry at me again, and I was very puzzled and angry about it.

"Yes, you have no obligation, but we will break up, at least after returning to our continent. I felt like I had too much to say, so I took a deep breath and changed my tone. "We are all your comrades-in-arms, and none of us have questioned your identity as a commander, even if I have offended you in the past, you can't be angry with everyone!"

"You seem to be mistaken, Prince of Mankind!" Sylvanas chuckled dismissively, and it was only then that I realized what was going on, yes, I thought there was a lot going on. "Arthas, we're not here for your Alliance, we're just destroying the threat of demons, and I didn't say anything about withdrawing. ”

"Then why did you come here with you....."

"That's because I only know that you are determined to resist the demons, Arthas, and I will not give up as long as there is a possibility of destroying them. Sylvanas said angrily, but in another way it seemed that there could be other consciousnesses... Perhaps, by this time, he had already led her ranger troops back to his camp.

I felt a little calm in my heart about this result, I didn't expect her to choose this way, and to say such a thing, when I saw off the army and looked at the rangers' tents under the city gates. Maybe the feelings may be irretrievable, but there may be some comfort in my heart....although I don't know what this is, but at least it can allow me to retain a lot of the strength of the remaining army this time, and maybe this is also worth my thanks.

Thankfully, but I don't think the end result will be the same. Although the Bronze Dragon King asked Luo Ning to tell me some things, it seems to me that everything seems to be confusing, after all, the history I know has changed a lot, and from my point of view, it may really change my fate, but it may also get worse, such as we all die here, or all become undead, then who else can lead us humans to cross west, and face other choices, I even wonder if this is a big gamble by Nozdorm. But since he has weighed the weight on me, then as me, I must not refuse this chance of redemption...

I thought so, and there was a sense of hope in my heart.
