Chapter 229: The King's Order
Ever since Jones spoke of Frost Grief, Arthas had been preoccupied with finding the artifact for months. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Of the group, Andy was probably the only one who didn't want to find Frost Grief, because he knew all too well how things were going. Frostmourn wasn't an artifact at all, but a magic sword, a magic sword made specifically for Arthas.
For months, Jones led the crowd through the ice fields, but they did not find the fabled northern glacier or the frost sorrow.
Arthas looked at the others, who had already sent him back to the beach to guard his ship, and he couldn't run around with a large number of soldiers every day, that would only weaken their fighting power.
Although Frostmourn was not found, most of Northrend had already made him find out.
"Jones, do you know the whereabouts of Frostmourn?" Taking advantage of the break, Arthas asked. This is not the first time he has asked, hundreds of times in the course of several months.
"The exact location is certainly not known, and an archaeological expedition requires patience in addition to the necessary skills and some luck." Jones nibbled on the frozen hard dry food, nibbling on it.
Arthas angrily threw the dry food in his hand into the snow, glared and said, "Are you entertaining me, I'm running out of patience!" My people are bleeding, suffering and suffering, and I am still wandering around like a blind man in this snow and ice, and I am doing nothing! ”
Jones seemed to feel Alsace's anger, he looked at Arthas's face blue due to anger, and hurriedly said: "We said yes, whether we find it or not, you can't blame me!" ”
"I don't blame you, I only blame myself for listening to your nonsense." Arthas's eyes flashed with coldness, "Although I said so, but you have delayed me too much, I will kill you!" ”
With that, Arthas drew the long sword at his waist.
Arthas's actions startled Andy, and he hurriedly stood up and stopped him and said, "What are you going to do, are you crazy?" ”
"I'm not crazy! It's him, it's you! "It's been a few months, not to mention the sorrow of the frost, even the northern glaciers have no clue, do we have to wait until we all live in this hellish place?" ”
Andy sighed, in fact, they couldn't find their destination, and Andy played a role in this. He didn't want to find Frost Grief, and he didn't want to laugh at Marganis. This is a consequence that no one can afford, and he only hopes that Arthas will finally give up and leave Northrend, and talk about it later.
But now it seems that the fire of hatred in Arthas's heart is growing day by day, and it has the potential to flourish.
Arthas returned the sword to the sheath and said coldly, "You'd better take me to Frost Sorrow, or you won't have to live anymore!" ”
Jones was so frightened that he squatted on the snow with a pale face and didn't get up for a long time. He now regretted telling Arthas about Frost's sorrow, wasn't he asking for trouble for himself?
Just when Arthas was in an upset mood and lost his temper, a soldier ran up from a distance.
"Your Royal Highness, I've been looking for you for two days." He said, "I have here a letter that has just arrived from the kingdom, and the messenger says that it is an order from His Majesty the King. ”
Arthas was not in the mood to read any letters, but was about to have them torn up, when he heard that it was Terenus who gave him an order, so he grabbed it.
He tore open the letter, only to see a few lines of handwriting written on a piece of letterhead: "I have been to Northrend for more than a few months, and I don't know if it has been successful or not." The kingdom's supplies have been somewhat unable to keep up, and after thinking about it for my father, I feel that this trip is very inappropriate, and hereby order, with all the troops to return to Lordaeron, there must be no mistake! ”
Arthas was stunned when he read the letter. When he first asked for war, Terenus was still encouraging him, and I really don't know what caused the old king to change his mind.
"This ...... What does that mean? Arthas's brow furrowed, "I've just been getting a little better here, and he's going to summon me back!" Could it be that if I just give up here, my efforts will be in vain? ”
Andy frowned and took the letter in Arthas's hand, read it cursoryly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. What the hell was Terenus thinking, at this time Arthas would definitely not give up on finding Frost Grief, and his mind was full of seeking revenge on Marganis.
"What about the messenger?" Andy asked.
"Still at the battleship, they have been out for almost a month, and because they are not familiar with the path at sea, they have been delayed for a long time." The soldier replied respectfully.
"Arthas, what do you think?" Andy asked, knowing that he might have asked in vain, and that Arthas would not follow the order to go back.
"I, I don't know." Arthas said that he did struggle with something, and he did not want to give up or resist Terenus's orders.
"Well, let's go back here." Andy said, "Maybe Marganis lied to you, he's not in Northrend at all. ”
"Impossible!" Arthas exclaimed, "Marganis, he won't lie to me!" ”
"But we've been here for a few months, and we really don't have a lot of supplies, and if we continue to consume it like this, I'm afraid we won't even have food to go back." Andy still persuades Artace.
Arthas glanced at Andy and the three of them, and except for Jones, both of whom had deep worries on their faces.
Arthas sighed and said to the soldier, "You go back first and bring the order to the others." We'll look for two more days, and if we can't find it, we'll go back, and then we'll sail back to Lordaeron. ”
Andy looked at Arthas in surprise, when did he speak so well, or did he really give up looking for Frost Sorrow?
Jones looked relaxed, glanced at everyone and said, "Then let's go, it seems that there is still a long way to go." ”
Arthas nodded and walked behind Jones. He lowered his head with a deep sense of loss on his face, and sighed incessantly.
Andy walked behind him, and couldn't help sighing, no one at this time, he didn't want to give up, right?
Although Arthas sighed, no one saw the glint in the depths of his eyes.
In two days, he had to plan well, and he must not be allowed to find Frost Sorrow, Andy thought.
