Chapter 345 The Dreadlord of Fear
Just as Iki was about to recount what he had seen in the convent, the door was suddenly pushed open by Arthur, who was full of alcohol.
Despite the smell of alcohol, the big black man's eyes were very clear, and his face was filled with an irrepressible excited smile: "Big sister, I just heard the news from the Crusaders, it is said that they are going to attack Stratholme!" ”
Arthur wanted to drop a bombshell to stun everyone, but unexpectedly... Several people just stared at him directly, without the slightest surprise or other strange emotions.
"You already know?"
Arthur scratched at the big bald head in confusion, and Xia Fan replied with contempt: "Not only do we know that the Crusaders are going to counterattack Stratholme, but we also know that the day of the counterattack is just around these days. ”
"How?"
Arthur was even more confused, but Xia Fan said mercilessly: "Stupid, Little Seventh Brother has already been to the Scarlet Monastery and seen their leader, Da Suohan. ”
"Even the date of the counteroffensive was said?"
"That's not ......"
Miss Fairy stammered for a while, the date of the counterattack was a military secret, and as the nominal leader of the Crusaders, even if Da Sohan had a hole in his brain, he would not easily say it to outsiders.
However, the next moment, she suddenly remembered the two watchmen who were staying in the hotel at the moment: "Ah Hei, when you came back, you saw the two rammed goods downstairs, right?" ”
Arthur couldn't help but nod.
Ramming goods has always been the synonym of the crusaders of the team members, Xia Fan just woke up, and the big black man's mind reflected two crusaders who behaved strangely on the first floor of the hotel.
"Those two were sent to spy on Little Seventh Brother!" Miss Fairy said crisply, while organizing the language: "Da Sohan wants to force the little seventh brother to attack Stratholme, but he is worried that the little seventh brother will escape, so he sent two stalkers. Based on their bad attitude alone, this fairy dared to conclude that the counterattack was imminent. ”
Although this is far-fetched, it is also reasonable.
If it weren't for the imminent counteroffensive, how could the crusaders blatantly come to spy on them?
This kind of behavior... If it weren't for Ichi's intention to go to Stratholme, any normal person, even if he wasn't disgusted, would have managed to leave Tyr's hands, right?
Taking a step back, the crusaders were fanatical and paranoid, but their brains were not sick, and if it wasn't for the imminent war, how could they do such a stupid thing as restricting the freedom of the powerful?
If the word gets out, then... In the future, will there be strong people and adventurers who will run to the plague land to help them resist natural disasters?
Therefore, the fact that the Scarlet Crusaders dared to do such a thing to kill chickens and eggs speaks for a lot in itself.
Of course, Miss Fairy didn't care about any of this, she just wanted to find an excuse to gag Arthur's mouth.
As for... Big black, the long-term contact has allowed him to gradually figure out Xia Fan's temperament, so even if he lends him ten guts, he doesn't dare to question it in front of everyone.
Then, I saw Hei Da patting his bald head, and suddenly realized: "It's still the eldest sister who can see it thoroughly!" It's no wonder that adventurers are borrowing wine from the tavern to kill their sorrows, saying something... The Hand of Tyr is now allowed to enter and not to leave, and it seems that the Scarlet Crusaders have a big plan! Not only do they want to force the strong to join them, but they also want to coerce all the adventurers to counterattack together......"
Several people looked at each other, but no one spoke.
If restricting the freedom of the strong is killing the chicken and taking the eggs, then coercing the adventurer to counterattack Stratholme is a battle.
Of course, this once again confirmed Xia Fan's guess.
The blockade of the city has already offended the outrage of the public, and it may be safe for a short time - the adventurer is a mess after all, and it is difficult to argue with the crusaders.
But the question is... If a stunned young man comes to climb the heights and shouts, the resentment and resentment that has accumulated in the hearts of adventurers will definitely become out of control like a volcanic eruption.
At that time, it will be difficult for Tyr's hand to think about it!
Regrettably, however, the silence was soon broken as few of those present did not care about the barbaric and brutal behavior of the Crusaders, let alone the vital interests of the adventurers.
"When I came back, I saw you discussing things?" Arthur reached out and grabbed the big bald head again, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Well, talking about Dasohan, he's like... Not people! ”
"Not human?"
"Hmmm! Although Da Sohan was well disguised and didn't show any horses' feet, because of his ability, he also made me discover some clues. As he recalled, Yi Qi explained: "You know, the life span of the Azeroth Terran is very short, and even if it is a legend, it is difficult to exceed 200 years, but through the observation of ability, I found that Da Suohan's soul is very ancient, and that sense of vicissitudes of time requires at least a thousand years of precipitation. ”
"Millennium?"
The big black man was first startled, and then analyzed: "There are not many creatures in Azeroth that can live to this age, except for elves and dragons, it seems that there are only demons. ”
After he reminded them like this, several people showed pensive looks.
Among them, Miss Fairy even shouted crisply: "Ah, I know, Da Sohan is the Dreadlord in disguise!" ”
"I guess, that's the truth!" Yi Qi nodded and agreed: "The paranoia and fanaticism of the Scarlet Crusaders are very abnormal in themselves, if Da Suohan is really the Dread Demon King, then everything makes sense." ”
As if he had discovered a new toy, Xia Fan directly showed an interested smile: "I really didn't expect that the leader of the Scarlet Crusaders was actually the Dread Demon King. Then she turned to Arthur again: "Do you know when the Crusaders began to become abnormal?" ”
"Well, it seems to be during the counterattack on Stratholme, and it made a lot of trouble."
"Hey, they fought back once?"
"Well, that was the first time the Crusaders had counterattacked Stratholme." Arthur nodded and said, "In order to fight the natural disaster, the dwarves of Ironforge once created an artifact, the Ember Bringer.
Ember Bringer has very wonderful characteristics, although when facing living beings, it can only show its own sharp attributes, but when the enemy becomes an undead, it will burst out with unparalleled holy light power, and weak undead will even be directly burned into ashes.
At that time, this legendary sword was once the hope of the alliance against the natural scourge, and the Scarlet Crusaders invited the High Lord Alexandros, the ruler of the Ember Bringer. Mograine, hoping to reclaim Stratholme with the help of the power of the Ember Bringer.
It was the first time that the Scarlet Crusaders had confronted the Scourge on a frontal battlefield, and even had the upper hand for a time. Alexandros used the Flame of Light from the Ashbringer to consume most of the Scourge Army......"
