Chapter 39: Faith in the Light

Brad didn't expect the archbishop to make this request, let a person give up his father-killing enemy, he didn't know whether to laugh at the archbishop's naivety, or to sigh at the archbishop's selflessness and magnanimity, look at the archbishop's fanaticism, if this kind of thing happened to him, Brad believes that he will definitely let go of this grudge.

But Brad knows that this kind of thing is not something he wants to give up, and the other party will stop him. In his father's time, Jasper Collar was only about to build a city before being destroyed, and now he controls no less than Alterac's territory, not to mention his reputation in the Alliance. In the eyes of King Lordaeron, this is a great threat, and if he does not get rid of himself, I believe he will not be blind to death.

However, Brad had no intention of making the first move, which was very detrimental to his reputation, not to mention that he still had to watch the drama of Alsace's father-murder, such a wonderful play that would be passed down through the ages, it would be a pity to destroy it himself. Sometimes killing the enemy is not the best way to get revenge, and you don't have to do it yourself, and gaining control of Lordaeron is your greatest goal. And I'm still very young, so I'm completely waiting.

So from beginning to end, Brad's face did not change at all, and he said calmly: "I promise the archbishop, as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke me, I promise that they will never provoke a civil war." ”

Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect Brad to agree so simply. Everyone thought of a possibility, that is, Brad was perfunctory to the archbishop, and the archbishop thought the same, and said excitedly: "Marshal, are you serious? ”

Brad looked around, and behind him was the core of the Jasper Collar. He said slowly: "Archbishop, although I admire you as a person, don't you think your vision is too narrow? ”

Benedictas's face changed. Shouted and scolded: "Brad, you are presumptuous. ”

"I'm just telling the truth." Brad took out a map of Azeroth from the ring and said slowly, "All along, our human eyes have been limited to one Lordaeron. But don't forget how the Stormwind Kingdom came to be, they crossed the sea to the south, which created a territory that was even larger than Lordaeron, and made a kingdom. It has brought new space for human development. Guys, don't you think Lordaeron is too crowded, yes? We've just taken control of Daron Mill, but have you ever wondered if one Daron Mill can feed a growing population? ”

The archbishop waved his hand not to let Benedictas continue to speak, but stared at Brad and said, "What the hell are you trying to say?" ”

Brad smiled and pointed to another continent and said, "This continent is called Kalimdor. Do you know that most of the land here is still ownerless? There is no one to develop at all, in a primitive state, controlled by wild beasts, Lordaeron and Gilneth are in trouble for the ownership of several small towns in the Silver Pine Forest, and they also don't understand that they are biting each other for the sake of a nominal leader, and when there is such time, why not open up new territories? ”

"This ......" the archbishop did not understand, but he knew the reason.

Brad sneered and said, "It's not that they can't see this. It's just that the mind is too narrow-minded. The two continents are so far apart that it would take three months to sail at the earliest. They are afraid, they are afraid that they have paid a great price to open up the territory out of their control, and they are afraid that humanity will once again appear in a storm kingdom that is not under their control. ”

The archbishop and his disciples were speechless, because what Brad said was the truth, and they were powerless to refute it.

Brad took a deep breath and said, "Archbishop, today is my wedding day, but you are using your prestige to blackmail me, although I know that you are for the sake of humanity, but I still feel very uncomfortable in my heart. I have just agreed to the Archbishop's request, but the Archbishop does not believe in my character. That being the case, I will no longer make any guarantees. All I can say is that as long as they don't mess with me, I can ignore the past for the time being, I'm not as blind as they are, and after my wedding I'll go to Kalimdo and the gathering point there. ”

The archbishop looked at Brad's young but resolute face, not knowing whether to be relieved or disappointed, he opened his mouth, and finally said nothing more, only let out a long sigh.

"Thank you, Archbishop, for presiding over the ceremony for us. It's not early, and the guests should have arrived at the Lord's Palace, so we'll go first, and I'll come to visit you later. Brad bowed, turned and walked outside.

Lux was still immersed in Brad's words, and she felt her blood boiling, while other adventurers were still running around to live, while some guilds were still complacent about establishing a town, Brad set his sights on all of Azeroth. Looking at the distant backs of the three of them, Lux's eyes suddenly became complicated, and even she didn't know why she felt this way in her heart.

As he was about to step out of the door, Brad paused and said, "One thing I can guarantee is that as long as I am here, humanity will be there, and I will do my best to make humanity prosperous." ”

After saying that, Brad strode away with the two brides without looking back, to be honest, seeing the archbishop today made Brad's heart a little unhappy, he hated dealing with this kind of religious madman the most, saying that they were for the people, it was better to say that they were for the fanatical fantasies in their hearts, this kind of people who used righteousness to blackmail others to help him realize their fantasies for their own fantasies, really made Brad unable to raise his respect for the mind, and his thoughts about the archbishop were also diluted.

This kind of madman is like the Archbishop and Uther, who live in their own fantasies all their lives, and have benefited many people. But if the values in the heart are distorted, or if they are originally righteous but do not see hope and are distorted, it is a disaster for the whole world. Benedictas may be like this, following a god-like master all day long for so many years, the archbishop is dead and no one cares, and it is strange not to go crazy. He's now a little regretful recommending White. Mayne and Lux go to a madman to learn if it's right.

The Light of faith among humans today is not like the Naru of the Draenei beliefs, but the Light of human faith is a philosophy. It is a kind of perseverance and persistence in the heart. As far as Brad knew, the Silver Hand had a different understanding of the Holy Light for each person. For example, the light of understanding is to cherish and protect. Warm and inclusive. Uther's faith is perseverance, and the light he emits is fanatical and scorching. And the light that Fordin understands is fraternity, and the light he emits is soft and inclusive......

Everyone's Light takes on new attributes and meanings, but Brad knows that his Light is pure Light energy, and like Naru, the medium through which he uses Light is Godhead.

"The young master and the two ladies should go to the mansion to rest first, and refresh themselves by the way." Morgana said as she got into the car.

Brad nodded and said, "What time is it?" The guests are all here, so it won't be delayed. ”

Morgana shook her head and said, "Don't worry, young master, it's still early." The people who came were all unimportant guests, and there was no need for the young master to greet them personally, so you freshen up and take a break. lest you lose the courtesy. ”

Brad reached out and helped the two brides into the car. He said, "Okay, then I'll go freshen up." ”

"Then I'll go and greet the guests." Morgana said with a bow.

"Okay." Brad nodded with satisfaction, Morgana has gone through such a long period of experience, coupled with the growth of strength, she can completely take charge of herself, and now she is no longer the clerk who is still a little little woman, and even a few adventurers can't handle it.

By the time the war was coming to an end, the Great Teleportation Tower had already been built. Now Stratholme and Jasper Collar are basically connected. Although the cost of construction is relatively high, as long as it is established and connected. The transmission will stabilize the dìng's long-term storage.

Compared with ordinary portals, not only does the amount of teleportation increase, but it also does not require special maintenance by mages, and does not need to consume teleportation materials. As a result, the cost of transmission is greatly reduced. The power of the miracle building can be seen, and with the large teleportation tower, Brad's control of Stratholme has also been taken to a higher level.

From the moment Brad took the bride on a tour of the Jasper Collar, the light of the Grand Teleportation Tower began to shine, and since the enlarged meeting of the kings of the alliance was taking place in Dalaran, many nobles and lords had arrived in Dalaran. And some generals who are far away and don't have the strength to establish a teleportation array or portal, and at the same time feel that they have a good relationship with the marshal, they catch up with the jasper collar a long time in advance.

Although real banquets and weddings, Jasper Collar has been bustling. Horses carrying gifts were already blocking the streets, but Morgana had anticipated this scene and placed the place where the gifts were received in the square of the Holy City. The main guests who received the gifts were invited to the small square of the Lord's Palace, which was a place to receive ordinary guests, and although the scale of the lord's building was not small, there were really not enough guests standing in the hall.

Only the important guests with the invitation card were arranged by Morgana to the hall of the Lord's Palace, where they were served mulled wine, pastries and fruit to wait for the wedding to begin.

And the guests who were arranged to the square were not annoyed, they did not receive invitations, most of them were mid- and low-ranking officers who had fought with Brad, and some of them were low-ranking nobles who had a relationship with Bradla.

Among them, the deputy mayor of Mareb greeted some nobles who had cooperative relations in a corner of the square, and Morgana did not give special treatment because he was her father, and she strictly followed the rules.

"Brother Mareb, I heard that my daughter is the mayor of Jasper Collar, I don't know if it's true or not?" A viscount said to Mareb with a glass of wine in his hand.

Mareb politely raised his glass and said with a smile: "Yes, Morgana is indeed my daughter. ”

The viscount hurriedly put away his arrogance, and said complimentingly: "Disrespectful and disrespectful, you want to become the mayor of Nanhai Town, I didn't expect your daughter to be so good, I just want to cooperate with the Jade Leader, and when the time comes, I hope that my brother will say a few kind words for me in front of Mayor Morgana, and I will be grateful." ”

Marebu was about to shirk it, when a yin and yang strange voice suddenly came: "This old man, you really think highly of him, he obviously has no weight in the heart of Mayor Morgana, don't you know, he strongly opposed Morgana marrying Jasper Collar at the beginning, so he almost broke off the father-daughter relationship." ”

Mareb's face changed, and the person who spoke was his biggest rival to become mayor of Nanhai Town...... (To be continued......)
