Chapter 141: Persuasion
Brad was pondering how to ask Sal to come over, but he knew that Blackmore regarded Sal as a treasure, and in addition to not letting Sal see anyone, he was trained as an heir to a territory in terms of knowledge, and in terms of combat according to the gladiator.
Later, after Thrall became the Grand Chief of the Tribe, the adventurers studied Blackmore's experience of adopting Thrall, and there have been two theories since then, one is that Blackmore wanted to train Thrall to be a peerless gladiator, relying on Thrall to earn a lot of wealth and prestige. The second is that Blackmore's original purpose was to train Thrall to be the future Great Chief, with the aim of overthrowing the Alliance.
Brad felt that he felt that neither of these points was reliable, if he was simply trained to be a gladiator, what was the use of learning human culture and etiquette? Cultivating Sal to become the future Great Chieftain is even more nonsense. There are very few people in the Alliance who know about the Frostwolf Clan, let alone the killing of Durotan, and he doesn't know the identity of Thrall at all. And although Blackmore has a grudge against the Silver Hand, he will definitely not betray the alliance, although he does not know much about Blackmore, but after half a year of fighting, Brad will not doubt this.
At this time, a little girl about the same age as little Jasmine, dressed in a pale red maid suit, carefully walked towards Blackmore first with a large plate.
Blackmore glared at her, and said with a displeased face: "Didn't I teach you the rules, I should give it to the deputy marshal first." ”
The little maid's body trembled, obviously afraid of him, and hurriedly walked up to Brad with small steps, and put the cider in front of Brad while secretly looking at this big brother that even the lord respected. Everyone said that he was a great hero who had defeated many, many evil orcs, but she had heard that little Thrall was also an orc. But it's not evil.
Looking at the timid little girl in front of him, Brad's mind raced, and he guessed that maybe this was Sal's human sister, Taresha. And it is said that she became Blackmore's mistress, and although she is dressed plainly, she still does not lose her cuteness with little Jasmine, you can predict that she must be a little beauty in the future.
After Taresa retreated, Blackmore noticed that Brad was paying more attention to Taresha. hurriedly explained: "Deputy marshal, this is my maid's daughter. In the past few years, the maid has been sick, and she has temporarily replaced his mother. ”
Brad nodded. said: "Very nice little girl, very similar to my little jasmine." ”
"It's very capable, it's a good seedling, but it's too timid. I don't like it very much. Blackmore said abruptly changing the subject. He sighed and said, "Don't hide it from the deputy marshal, I once wanted to join the Knights of the Silver Hand, but unfortunately the archbishop said that I was not mentally strong and was too murderous and rejected me. Although I don't want to admit it, I know that I am afraid it will be difficult for me to break through to the epic. Even if I break through, I guess I'm already old, and everything will be over. ”
Brad nodded knowingly, for a man with big ambitions. It's maddening to see the hope of improving strength, and Brad already has an idea when he thinks about it.
"Your Excellency means that you want me to be an intermediary to help you talk to the archbishop?" The news of the archbishop's retreat in Jasper has spread throughout Lordaeron.
Blackmore drank the cider in one gulp. He put the wine glass on the table heavily before he said: "The deputy marshal misunderstood, if a good horse doesn't eat back grass, I won't join the silver hand." Besides, the archbishop is right, my heart is really not suitable to be a paladin. It is really enviable to see that the deputy marshal has become a hero at a young age, but he can kill epic powerhouses, and he has led the alliance army to create many brilliant achievements. ”
Brad took a slight sip of hot cider and knew that this was the wine that had been stored in the Jasper Collar, Brad was slightly proud in his heart, as long as the Jasper Collar continued to buy fine wine from all over the world and then cellared for a period of time, it could be sold at a higher price, and it had occupied the high-end market of Lordaeron, and the nobles would be embarrassed to entertain guests if they did not take the Jasper Collar wine.
"The general is humble, but it's just a name. Who doesn't know that General Lu Dao is well governed, and I believe that there is no Dunhold in the whole of Lordaeron, and the slave trade and gladiatorial arena are not famous. ”
Blackmore lifted the flask and poured himself a glass of wine, and said with a wry smile: "I would be proud if other nobles said this, but when these words came out of the mouth of the deputy marshal, it really made me feel ashamed." It took me most of my life to get Dunhold to this point, and it took me a year for the lieutenant to leave Dunhold far behind, which is really ashamed of me. ”
Brad waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's not praise each other, otherwise it will cause jokes." Truth be told, I'm here for a please. ”
Blackmore's face also became serious, and he said: "Deputy marshal, please speak, but with support, I will definitely go all out." ”
Brad wanted his words, nodded with satisfaction, and said as easily as if he was talking about a trivial matter: "That's the case, I believe Your Excellency also knows that I have hundreds of thousands of orc captives in my hands." As far as I know, these orc warriors have drunk demonic blood, which makes peaceful orcs violent and aggressive, and I think it is worthwhile to study ordinary orcs, and maybe solve the orc problem without injuring a single soldier. I have not been bothered at this time, but I have overheard that Your Excellency has adopted a small orc, so I took the liberty of visiting. It's just a little orc, I believe Your Excellency won't be embarrassed, of course, if you feel that you are at a loss, I can also buy it, in short, it will not let you suffer a loss. ”
Blackmore's smile froze on her face, if it was anything else, she would definitely try her best to help, not to mention Brad's noble identity and status, there are many places in her own territory that need to rely on the power of the Jasper Collar. But it was very difficult for him to hand over Sal himself, and Sal was extremely important to him.
But the problem is that what he said just now was a bit full, if he rejected Brad and let Brad's face go, look at the people next to Brad, one is the mayor of Jasper Collar and manages the normal operation of Jasper Collar. One was a staff officer to Brad, who was said to be the beloved daughter of Duke Presto. Cutting the other side in front of his men would inevitably offend Brad to death.
In the eyes of others, he loses face as a little orc, what is that? The news of this matter will inevitably make it difficult for him to move an inch in the alliance. He is very aware of Brad's influence in the league, and if this matter is lost, he will not want to have a good life in the future. But if you hand it over like this. So what should I do, my own heart is sustenance......
Onexia noticed that something was wrong, with her understanding of Brad, Brad would only touch the little white on his wrist when he encountered something very important, and now for a little orc, why do you do this? Looking at Blackmore's frozen smile on his face, he was even more sure that this event was unusual.
Although I don't understand. But it doesn't prevent Onexia from adding fuel and fuel. Black Dragon MM smiled slightly and said, "Why, the general won't be reluctant to even a little orc, right?" ”
He no longer had the heart to appreciate the other party's seductive smile. Blackmore's smile was even more bitter, he was now riding a tiger. He was in a quandary.
Brad waved his hand to stop Morgana, who was about to speak, and said with a smile: "It seems that I really embarrassed the general, but your Excellency treats this orc as your own." Or is there another plan. ”
Blackmore was sweating profusely. Hearing that there was another plan, a thunderbolt sounded in his mind, and he hurriedly said: "The deputy marshal misunderstood, what can I do." It's really embarrassing to say it, you also know that I have no queen, since I adopted Sal, I have always regarded it as a parent, although it is a little embarrassing, but ......"
Brad waved his hand and said, "I see, so be it." Look at this, can you let Sal take care of me. I promise to let him live well, and it won't hurt him. ”
Seeing Blackmore holding the complete Heroic Spirit of an Epic Warrior in his hand, Brad explained: "I believe Your Excellency has heard that my Jasper has a Hero Soul Crystal, which can allow people to master the primary laws, so that people can slowly grow into heroic powerhouses without being taught." And this Heroic Spirit makes something even more advanced, which can make a person become an epic powerhouse in a short period of time. ”
Blackmore was full of disbelief and asked tremblingly, "Is this true?" ”
Brad laughed but didn't say anything.
Onexia said at this time: "What kind of identity is the deputy marshal, is it necessary to lie to you?" ”
"That's, that's not what I meant......" Blackmore didn't want to join the Silver Hand because he was not very devout to the Holy Light, and his main purpose was to promote the epic powerhouse, but after being rejected, he dimmed, so he put his mind on other aspects. Now that he heard that the things in his hands could make him quickly promoted to the epic, how could he not be excited, if he was really promoted to the epic, his ambition would not be unrealizable. When I see Fording and Abidis again, I won't consciously be inferior.
"At the end of the day, you still don't believe it." Without waiting for Blackmore to refute, Onexia continued: "Mayor Morgana, you should understand that you can't change jobs. But do you sense it now? ”
Blackmore was full of doubts, and after carefully sensing it, his face changed. Morgana is the daughter of Marebu, he has known him for a long time, after the rise of the Jasper Collar, he has specially collected information on the main characters of the Jasper Collar, and the exact knowledge is that Morgana is an ordinary person, although he heard that he can use a few spells, but it is just for self-preservation. But now he really felt that the other party had reached the peak of the fourth order, and he felt that his aura might break through to the hero level at any time.
"Feel it, I believe you also understand the characteristics of the hero's soul crystal, the effect is not so strong. The Heroic Spirit that Mayor Mare used a few days ago can break through to the Hero Rank at any time. Your Excellency is now a high-ranking hero, and if you use what you have in your hands, I estimate that it will not take you two days to advance to Epic. ”
Brad also said: "If the general still doesn't believe it, you can use it now, and if you wait for your Excellency to be promoted to the epic and then hand over Sal to me?" ”
"No, I trust the lieutenant." Just kidding, if that's the case, wouldn't you not believe in the deputy marshal, seeing that the three of you are so sure, I believe that the deputy marshal will not be happy with himself. After making up his mind, he hurriedly shouted, "Taresa go and bring Sal over." ”…… (To be continued......)
