Maybe those eyes weren't just Crassus. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The next morning, when I was dressed and took the crystal ball to look for Ronin, I found that my paladin friends had been waiting for me outside for a long time.
"Why don't you train, I'm sure Muradin must be impatient. "I knew they were going to pester me again, and as much as I loved being with them like this, I still had to act like I was very angry. And I know they seem to have developed the same bad habits as me. "If you let Muradin know that you're skipping class... Hmph, I won't be using the light to heal you quickly. ”
I can't help but feel a pang of relief when I think of the dwarves flattening them. But that's not the case.
"We won't see him again, he's gone. ”
"Even resigned from the post of ambassador. ”
I was surprised to hear the news, but it didn't seem that simple, but I didn't think there was a problem for a while. Let's continue to taunt them.
"That's because you let him down. I scorned the three of them, obviously I thought I was better than them at this, maybe.
"Yes. "Falik subconsciously raised the sword that Crassus had given him and faced me, if it were placed in the human world, he would have thought that he was going to assassinate. But he, won't. But I felt fear, because the runes on it made me think of what scared me the most. That's right...
"He went to the northern continent, where it is said that a mysterious sword was guiding him. Falic scrutinized his weapon. "You know, I asked the Sword Practitioner to evaluate my sword, and he said it was the only one in all of Lordaeron....I don't know if he could find the real one like me. ”
I was stunned when I heard the answer, yes, I should have known....or I should have prevented. Or, we'll meet again then
"Hey, Falik, I think the fate of your sword is going to be the same as the fate of your warhorse. Thassarian sensed my silence, and perhaps he thought that my staring at Mana's sword was what he was talking about. In addition to this explanation, there is only fear, and of course it is even more impossible, at least they think it is impossible.
As I watched the embarrassed Falik hand over his favorites, I knew they had misunderstood me.
"No... It's not what I want. "I firmly rejected Magic. "The one Muradin's looking for could have been better..."
Manic smiled, and I think the reason was that I still had the weapon, not what I said. Because..
"I don't think you really think there's any treasure in the north. Thassarian looked at me with a serious expression, apparently wondering if I believed the dwarves in my words. "The dwarves always believed that the creator would leave them some treasure, but in fact there was nothing. ”
"Yes, that's what they believe in....but not necessarily this time," I thought of a possible expedition, the sorrow of the frost, and I thought it might be possible, but..."I'm sure we'll meet. ”
"I don't want to go north, it's too cold. ”
Thassarian complained that he thought we were going on the same excursion expedition as before, apparently he didn't know what was going on, and of course, I couldn't tell him.
"Yes, I don't want to, then look at our faith when the time comes...."The Death Knight who is incompatible with his own beliefs....no, but I can only pray like this. But before that. "This matter is here first, and we have to see if they have found themselves first. "I pulled out the crystal ball, and it was clear that everyone understood our itinerary for the day and what 'they' meant, so we ran to the inn, where Ronin and Winlessa lived.
"Hey, you have to knock on the door when you come in. "Ronin, who had just woken up in bed, was obviously not happy with us breaking in.
"Wen Lesa didn't care, what else did you say. "I reproached his lover in front of the ranger. "I think she should have known we were here. ”
"It's not something to observe. Wen Lesa didn't lie in bed, but was already sitting on her Ranger gear, apparently still maintaining her old style and routine. "I can't always see a gentleman's side in you. ”
"Of course, I don't see the respect you should have for the prince. "There's nothing better for a ranger's opinion than color. For example, this made everyone smile wisely.
After a friendly exchange of pleasantries lasted for a while, I made it clear to them what I was here for, and it was evident that I knew it.
"I think you know what we're here for. I handed the crystal ball to Ronin, "Or should I wait until your strength is fully restored, you last night..."
"You think I'm your fragile little girlfriend Gianna. Before I could finish my sarcasm, Ronin said angrily and dressed that he still didn't want me to continue talking about last night. And has already said a promise that I think he will have a hard time fulfilling: "I can even take you to Stratholme." When he finished passing the clothes, he waved his hand, and immediately let us see the scene we were looking at.
However, with such a simple action, I still wonder if it was Crassus who was working on it. But the environment still didn't make me continue to think about this inconsequential issue, because the images are so realistic, as if they were there:
In the church of Stratholme, his mentor Uther endured his grief and read out the crimes of his best friend Tirioferdin. And after he collected his Light, he also completely outlawed his family's status as lord of Stratholme and exiled him. The inhabitants of Stratholme also have all sorts of emotions towards the paladins, sadness, disappointment, pity....but a few. Most of the people were hostile, believing Tirioferdin to be a traitor.
At this time, the old paladin, who had lost the power of the Holy Light and was scolded, had a very difficult time standing.
"It's, there's no way to avoid it," I knew it was going to be that way, but seeing it in person still hurt my paladin friends and me a little sad and silent. Because we can understand what this means to a hero, perhaps even more tragic than dying on the battlefield.
But not everyone understands our feelings. Some people seem to take it for granted that befriending orcs is punished, so she pays more attention to the other side.
"Do you paladins all collapse when you leave the Light?" the Ranger asked, unconventionally, obviously out of place in our environment.
"Of course not, it's just that Tirioferdin is in his sixties, and he's very old. Like my mentor Uther, I calmly explained to the Ranger, "though he doesn't survive long for you elves. ”
Perhaps the Ranger realized my anger and stopped asking. And I sighed at her. I think it's more difficult to make an elven ranger a paladin than I thought.
But just when I thought about stopping the paladin cultivation program, I found that it was not hopeless.
After a long time, the crystal ball took us to a different scene. I saw Tirioferdin and his family discussing their plans for the future.
Everything is the same as I remember.
The old paladin was exiled, while his young wife decided to stay in Stratholme for the sake of her children's future. But I seem to have forgotten an important passage. I think this would be a good piece of advice for my friends, especially the Ranger, or Crassus who is working in a distant land.
"Dad, are all orcs bad?" Tyran Ferding asked his father. And he, Tirio Verdin, uttered an answer that could cover his whole life.
"Race is not an indication of glory, and one should not make rash judgments about one's own different existence... I know some orcs, who are as honorable as the noblest knights, and I know some humans, who are as evil as the most cruel demons. Tirio Ferdin's affectionate reply to his son, of course, was not just for me.
And at this moment, the ranger didn't say anything anymore, but was a little moved. I knew she was infected by the Paladin, and of course she wasn't the only one, everyone seemed to understand that it might be worth it for the Paladin.
Maybe they understood the point of what I was doing, but it wasn't more than that.
When the candlelight in his house is blown out, Ronin shifts his unemployment to another scene, where Orgrim is rediscovering the lost orcs. and talked about their experiences.
"If Tirioferdine was just exile, then what else are you sending those orcs for? Luo Ning still wondered.
"Of course, this is not the time yet. I explained. "Because you haven't seen the paladin's determination, and what he said about the demon-like people. ”
"Who do you mean?
"Of course it's Adjutant Bathras...."After Luo Ning heard my words, he immediately used the crystal ball to search for the person's current information. Obviously, Ronin, whose hometown lives in Andorhar, next door to Stasom, knows very well who the new lord I am talking about is.
When the crystal ball showed that the orc who had befriended the paladin was being abused by the lord, everyone agreed with me.
"Hopefully I can teleport us to Stratholme a round trip. Ronin looked angry at this, apparently he no longer saw orcs as demons. But I also got a reality from his mouth. Obviously, the distance between King Lordaeron and Stratholme could not be achieved by his strength, and he was talking big just now.
But it's not impossible.
"You can ask for help through this. I pointed back to the crystal ball, "You're not just a human being. ”
"Yes, I will do it. "Ronin knows what I mean, which is to ask Crassus to help teleport us. "But I can't guarantee that he will support our actions. ”
"Crassus?" Wen Lesa also thought of something, such as the hatred of the red dragon and the orcs, and her face turned embarrassed. "Yes, he probably won't be able to help this time. ”
"Really?... I don't think he's going to be so stingy. I said to Ronin, and then I looked at the crowd. "Because he supports my plan. ”
