In a village north of the Hillsbrad Hills, two teenagers walked out of the Lord's Mansion, surrounded by a dozen guards.

"Faeron, let's let go of the hunting business first. I'm interested in those things, so take me to see them. A blonde boy who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old said.

The white-haired young man named Fei Lun was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, Your Royal Highness the Prince, please come with me." Actually, it's not much to look at, it's just something that doesn't go into the stream. ”

The blonde prince nodded and followed behind Faeron, and said as if intentionally or unintentionally: "We can't control your calculations about the Jasper Leader, after all, the Jasper Collar is a Dominion. But the hills still belong to Lordaeron's land, and my father is not happy with your private construction of a village in the hills. ”

Feren frowned, obviously disgusted by the blonde boy's words. "Arthas, I don't think I have any objection that the Hills belong to the Lordaeron Alliance, but it doesn't just belong to the Lordaeron Kingdom, we in Alterac are also part of the Lordaeron Alliance."

Arthas didn't seem to hear Feren's words, and said in a calm tone: "I heard that there is an Archduke of Presto in Alterac, and his prestige even surpasses that of His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Ferenc paused, and he was always wary of the apparently polite and respectable Grand Duke, for King Alterac was old and his usual affairs fell into the hands of Presto, who was the greatest obstacle to his ascension to the throne.

"I don't like this Presto by an unknown origin." Arthas said lightly.

Feren immediately understood what Arthas meant, and said very simply: "I have long said that this place is not suitable for building a village, but that stubborn guy of Moult insists on going his own way, and when he comes back from Jasper, I will immediately order him to return to Alterac with his people." ”

Seeing that Arthas was still expressionless, Faeron's heart moved, and then said: "Your Highness Arthas, I have something to ask for. ”

"Oh, let's hear it." Arthas said noncommittally.

"That's right, the Jasper Collar is too far away from Alterac to be managed. So I want to trouble the prince to help take care of it, and I only need to achieve three good yields in the mine, and the rest will be the hard work of His Royal Highness the prince. "For the throne in the future, a mine is nothing. With Lordaeron's support, he will be able to inherit the throne smoothly, and the mines, Alterac are more than yes.

Arthas smiled brightly and took Faeren's hand and said, "Brothers help each other, why ask for each other, you are too outward, I will allow this matter." ”

Faren unconsciously pursed his lips, led Arthas into a warehouse, pointed to the wooden boxes piled up in the warehouse, and said: "No, this is the intercepted goods, a pile of engineering parts, which seem to be machine tool parts or tools. There are three or two boxes of gems and elemental essences that are barely eye-catching. ”

Arthas only glanced at the tools and parts for a few moments before losing interest, and as for the elemental essences and other gems, they were just some continental goods, and he didn't even have the interest to pick them up and look at them.

"I thought it was something, but I didn't expect it to be just some garbage stuff, human civilization is so brilliant that I don't understand it, but I only learn dirty, greedy, cunning goblin things, it's really a shame for mankind."

Faeron despised Arthas fiercely in his heart, you meanly abolished other people's professional marks, and a genius mage became a wasted person, and now you still despise others. Besides, science and technology are the primary productive forces, do you understand?

"Since His Royal Highness the Prince doesn't like these things, then I'll stay. Your Royal Highness the Prince, take away the grain and these elemental essences! ”

Arthas nodded, pleased with Feron's knowledge.

"According to my father's intentions, I didn't want to trouble him anymore, but I didn't expect Gianna to really go to his side after rejecting me, which is like death." With anger in his eyes, Arthas continued, "In that case, I have no choice but to send him back to the embrace of the Holy Light as soon as possible, although I don't like that scum of Jonas either, it is still somewhat useful. My only concern was Gianna's safety. ”

Faeron hurriedly comforted: "You can rest assured, Moult will not attack her, although Jonas claims to be a madman, it is impossible to go against your will, besides, it is strange that the disciple of the leader of Dalaran has no hole cards." ”

"Then we'll wait in the Lord's Mansion, and when I see Brad's head, I'll say goodbye to him." Arthas paused as he spoke, and said coldly: "Doesn't he like that little Lori very much, so when the time comes, cut off her head and feed it to the wild dogs." As for Matt, let it go, otherwise it will be difficult to explain it in Nanhai Town. ”

Fei Lun didn't care, just let him please, and said, "As you wish." ”

"It's rare that Uther's old-fashioned old stubbornness is not there, and today he is not drunk and has no home......"

Not......

A few muffled grunts and the sound of a body falling interrupted Arthas's words.

One of the guards crashed away and fell to the ground, with a dagger stuck in his back, and a bloody mark on his neck, and the blood kept pouring out.

"King, little ......"

The guard vaguely spat out two words and fell silent.

Both Feren and Arthas drew their one-handed swords at their waists, looked at each other with solemn faces, and looked at the door back to back guardedly. They were all very unhappy, because there were more than a dozen third-order guards at the door of the warehouse, but when there was no movement, only one dying guard reported the news, what about the others?

Suddenly, both of them felt a pain in their arms at the same time. The one-handed sword in his hand fell to the ground unsteadily. Out of thin air appeared in the warehouse, several masked thieves, each with a large wooden stick in their hands, and without speaking, they beat them with their heads and faces covered.

Arthas and Feron couldn't put up an effective resistance at all, but after a few strokes, the two of them curled up on the ground with their heads in their hands and screamed and changed.

Enduring the pain in his heart, Arthas cried out, "Who are you? ”

Seeing that several people didn't speak and just greeted them with big sticks, Fei Lun's sweat flowed out of pain. Trembling shouted: "You, you, presumptuous, I am the prince......"

When Faren saw a few stopping, he thought that they were frightened by their identity, so he got up with difficulty and said, "Count, count you, know you, know your face, ...... this "

Oops, Feron was kicked to the ground again by a masked man, and this time the men no longer used wooden sticks, but just slammed into them with large leather boots.

One of the men in black was very bad, and even kicked them directly on the head and the man's vital point a few times.

After a long time, a few people stopped.

"Almost, drag it out......" said a man in black in a hoarse voice.

The man in black immediately carried out the order, grabbed the legs of the two and really dragged them out.

Arthas's face was blue and purple, and with the dirt on his face from the shoe prints, he probably didn't even know his mother.

"You, don't pretend, I recognize you, you're Brad......"

(Okay, resigned to my fate, and ran naked next week.) There is a change in the evening, but it is a little late, more than eleven o'clock, and friends who are too late can see it tomorrow. ）
