Chapter 253: Your Choice?
King Magni's love was not quite right, at least it could be felt in the Ironforge Throne Hall, where the atmosphere had become very oppressive, and the dwarven councillors who had always been able to quarrel all day long over trivial matters such as trivial matters had shown an attitude that silence was golden.
After all, no one wants to provoke a Hill King, especially if the Hill King is in extreme grief.
"My own brother is dead, in Northrend, at the hands of his old friend, your princess of Arthas." After seeing the appearance of Mograine and the others, the dwarven king who came back a little from his grief, Magni. Brass said as he struggled to suppress his tone.
Wang Rui, who was following behind Mograine, chuckled in his heart when he heard the king of the hill Magni say this, yes, not only the first generation of Ash Messenger has become a sister, but even the middle two lich king has changed from a prince to a princess, what kind of Azeroth world is this, Wang Rui has always kept a distance from the strange issue of the mother-in-law world, and he really didn't expect that he would one day witness half of the world being mother-in.
"Dead? Dead at the hands of the Alsace princess? That's impossible...... Before leaving, I had heard that His Majesty King Terenus had just instructed the princess of Arthas to deal with the plague, and that it was for this that we had come. Hearing McGney's words, Mograine looked shocked and incredulous, and Wang Rui, who could only pretend to be shocked, complained in his heart about the disadvantages of the world's backwardness and not even having a telephone.
Although it takes the player to run from the ruins of Lordaeron to Ironforge for a maximum of ten minutes in the game, this dream world is not the only place in the game world. Judging by Mograine's unpretentious appearance, the story of the human chapter in Warcraft 3 has been in order in the time she has spent on the road from the Northern Kingdoms to Kazmodan, where Ironforge is located. The irreversible happens.
"If my people had not deceived me, your Alsatian princess would have gone further and further down the wrong path, slaughtering almost all the inhabitants of the city of Stratholme, because she thought them incurably tainted with the plague, and she had turned a deaf ear to the warnings of her best friend, my brother Muradin, in order to obtain the cursed sword. In the end, I even gave my brother his life......" In the end, the King of the Hill sat on his throne like a weak man and wept bitterly, but those who knew King Magni knew that the King of the Hill, who was no less important in the eyes of the dwarves of Ironforge than the King of the Mountains, Anvimar, was definitely not a weak man. His appearance like this can only show that the loss of his brother has made him grief to the extreme.
"It can't be! Stratholme ...... Stratholme is the hometown of the princess of Arthas, how could she ...... How could she do such a thing. Seeing that Magni's grief-stricken phenotype was not at all disguised, and knowing that the King of the Hill was certainly not deceiving himself, Mograine was hard to accept this reality.
"Stratholm ......" Hearing the military lich Char, who was familiar with the name of the place, suddenly said in the private chat channel: "Is that the place it is?" ”
"Well, that's the place." I know that the military lich Char is talking about the inherent enchantment he opened in his mental image world or something. Wang Rui responded to this military lich who didn't look like a bear child in the private chat channel.
"What weird thing are you talking about?" Kelly, who didn't know about that scene, said with a question mark on her head.
"It's just a ...... In short, it is a very important place for the history of this world. Wang Rui didn't know how to describe what Stratholme meant to the world of Azeroth.
"It's really hard to explain. But we can take a look. Char, the military lich, said in a subtle tone.
"What do you mean we can see...... ......Wang Rui, who was about to ask a clear question, was surprised to find that the entire dream world was frozen like a slide, the dwarven king maintained a sad expression, the female version of the first generation of ash messengers still widened their eyes in shock, as if they had heard something unbelievable, and the others in the throne hall also kept their movements still.
The scene of the world suddenly turning into a wax museum made Wang Rui a little unresponsive, and asked suspiciously to the other two people in the entire still world who could still move, "What happened?" ”
"It just occurred to me that since you've been through this world too, you can also make a little bit of a supplement to this world. Make this dream world a little more stable. Ethan Lien, who had been replaced by Char, gradually shattered his body as the otherworldly lich spoke, and after Char had finished speaking. A skeletal shelf that Wang Rui and Kelly were all too familiar with reappeared in place.
"Isn't it good now? If this dream world collapses, will it have any big impact on us? Compared to the military lich, Wang Rui, who remained unchanged, asked his doubts.
"It doesn't have a big impact, my personal guess is that Char should just be very curious, a new world, even if it can only be shown in the dream world, is something worth studying." Kelly, who had also not changed, guessed.
"It's a little curious, if I'm not mistaken, you should be in this world to achieve the Heroic Spirit, and this place called Stratholme should be your place of glory." Once Wang Rui's identity was mentioned, this military lich who was so curious that he was still a bear child always maintained a salute to Wang Rui.
Just wondering why Char said this, Wang Rui found that he didn't know when the three of them came from the scorching Iron Fort to a forest of birds and flowers, and what appeared in front of them was a city that was still very magnificent, although it was different from the painting style of the Iron Forge.
"Stratholm ......" looked at the city that had not yet been reduced to ruins, Wang Rui said with some emotion, and was about to continue to sigh, when a cloud of smoke came out of Stratholme's city, followed by a raging flame and a scorching heat wave, as if the picture was fast forward, the originally magnificent city became a city in fire in a blink of an eye, and the rolling smoke even covered the originally clear sky.
"It's full of weeping souls and mournful spirits, and I can feel that there are even many innocent people who can't accept their own death and still linger here and don't want to leave, and it seems that this city has indeed been slaughtered." The skeletal version of the military lich Char waved his hand, and a faint soul fire surrounded him, and while habitually performing the transcendent ritual in this dream world, he asked Wang Rui: "Then what did the princess named Arthas slaughter that should have been her people?" ”
"About...... Although I don't approve of her approach, I can't find a better way to do it than her. Wang Rui thought about the prince of Arthas, who chose to slaughter all the infected inhabitants of Stratholme who might be transformed by the Scourge Legion in order to prevent the spread of the plague in the game, that is, the princess of Arthas in this world, and said in a slightly serious tone.
"What does it mean to put yourself in their shoes and not find a better way to do it?" Kelly asked with some curiosity, and the military lich seemed to have known what Wang Rui would say for a long time, so he didn't speak.
"I want to start by asking, Kelly, would you kill one person to save a hundred?" Wang Rui straightened out his train of thought and asked rhetorically first.
"Of course...... If I want to save this hundred. Kelly replied decisively and ...... Match your character.
"What about you...... Will you choose to kill one person and save a hundred? Wang Rui asked again.
"There is a difference...... Well, it really seems like there's a difference. Kelly thought carefully and understood what Wang Rui meant in his words, the meaning of different orders is different, the former is for salvation, and the latter is for ......, although there is not much difference in terms of consequentialism, but it is completely different for the executor.
"My answer is, still, if I want to save a hundred." Kelly replied without hesitation.
"Well, the prince...... It was in this place that the royal daughter made the same choice as you, but she was not as casual as you, and it was her identity that forced her to make such a choice. Wang Rui used this method to briefly describe the plot of the Stratholme massacre.
"I see, the same choice, at most, the number has changed from 1 to 100 to 100 to 10000 or 10000 to 100000." Kelly nodded to show that she understood what the situation was, and then continued: "According to the normal development, there is a nine-in-a-nine chance that this princess will eventually go astray, and this kind of pressure is an unavoidable problem for anyone. ”
"It's like you can't play anymore, lift the table and stop playing?"
"Let's put it that way......" (To be continued......
