635, Van Cleef father and daughter
In fact, the matter of arrears of wages for migrant workers really has little to do with King Wa. He wasn't in Stormwind City when this happened, and this was the case that the whip chief couldn't say, and the culprits should actually be Black Dragon MM and those greedy nobles in Stormwind City, and they had nothing to do with King Wa.
But ordinary people don't approve of it, what do the workers of the Masons Association know? They have a very simple view, that is, since you are the head of all the nobles, then you have the responsibility to manage the nobles, and since the nobles are now in arrears of our wages, then you are responsible...... Well, in fact, even if there are not many people with this kind of vision, most people simply think that it is the king of Wa who is pressing their wages.
They also didn't want to think about it, although Stormwind did suffer a serious blow, if the Wryon family was the royal family of Stormwind, how could they overthrow their own rule on their own? Even if Stormwind City really runs out of money, can't it be paid in installments if it can't be paid at one time?
Therefore, the fact that Wawang owes wages to migrant workers is sometimes really untenable.
But the question is, how many people can understand this?
Van Cleef must have known the inside story, but he didn't care about it for a long time, his idea was just to destroy the city he built with his own hands, and who was behind it was not the first thing for him to do. If he can kill him, then he won't refuse, but even if he can't do it, it doesn't matter, anyway, his current goal is the next one, which is to destroy Stormwind City.
And under such a leadership, the deterioration of the Defia Brotherhood is also conceivable.
Du Teng didn't think it was strange at all, many people can still stick to their hearts when they are ordinary, but once they have money and power, they will be like a different person. There have been so many such people throughout the ages, so many that they are like the stars in the Tianshan Mountains, and they are impossible to count. Van Cleef was just one of them, not even a great one.
The entire Defia Brotherhood has been able to entrench in the Western Wilderness for so many years, not because of their strength...... Of course, the Brotherhood of Defia is indeed not weak, but it is also not strong, if Stormwind really puts all its forces on them, how can these people, who were originally stonemasons and ordinary farmers, be the opponents of armored soldiers?
Even Van Cleef himself, who is certainly a very well-known master at MI7, but so what? Not to mention that he died at the hands of the Foot Man, even if there was no Foot Man, could he be the opponent of Madias Shore? And is the master of MI7 only on the surface? Isn't there a hidden existence that has never been revealed?
If it weren't for the fact that the location of Stormwind City was too important, and Feng Shui seemed to be a little bad, so he was often attacked by various forces, where would he have a turn to come out on Van Cleve?
Count the enemies of Stormwind, two orc wars, trolls, undead, kobolds, fishmen, ...... With the exception of the latter two, all of them are very pleased. In fact, even kobolds aren't really weak. Maybe these little guys can't do it with individual strength, but they can give birth! There are a lot of them, and they are difficult to eradicate, but these little guys have become one of the biggest headaches in Stormwind.
And there are too many places to manage in Stormwind, Thorn Valley, Twilight Forest, Elwyn Forest, Wild West, Red Ridge Mountain, Burning Plains...... If you do the math, even if you don't have those alien creatures that are constantly attacking humans, Stormwind would have consumed a lot of troops to manage such a large area of land.
Otherwise, if Stormwind City wants to be Gilneth back then, where is the Defia Brotherhood tossing? I've been pinching them to death like bugs for a long time.
It's a pity that Stormwind City doesn't have such a force, not before, and not now, especially now that the orcs have attacked from the Burning Plains, Stormwind City has already transferred all the troops that can be drawn in order to resist this group of orcs.
It's a pity that Van Cleef didn't attack at this time, and it can be said that he missed the best opportunity to destroy Stormwind City.
As for the future...... Stormwind may have the power to destroy this gang of bandits directly, but who knows? Anyway, Duten didn't want the Defiya Brotherhood to be wiped out so easily.
Ten minutes later, in the deepest part of the Mine of Death, in a vast underground space, Duten met the legendary man atop a huge ship that was almost finished.
He was in his thirties, dressed in black leather armor, and his face was white and clean, looking like a scholar more than a robber leader.
When he saw Du Teng, the other party's face also showed a slight expression of surprise, and then he stood in front of Du Teng with his arms outstretched.
"Welcome, His Majesty Lim of the Kingdom of Gilneth."
However, what was waiting for him was one of Du Teng's big feet.
With a bang, before Duten could use any force, Van Cleef had already flown upside down and hit the fence next to him, almost breaking a section of the fence.
Qiang Qiang ......
A series of unsheathed weapons immediately sounded around him, and many of the guys who had been following Du Teng since he entered the mine, but the hidden guys also appeared, and they were like a pack of hungry wolves, silently surrounding Du Teng, as if as long as Van Cleef gave an order, they would shoot Du Teng.
But Van Cleef was clearly not so stupid, and he hurriedly raised his right hand.
"Stand down!"
Although there was a hint of unwillingness on the expressions of these people, they were still obedient and retreated.
Van Cleef stood up against the fence, covering his abdomen with one hand and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with the other, grinning.
"I don't know where I offended His Majesty Limu, if so, please tell me."
Although he was laughing, his expression was very dangerous, and he looked like a beast that devoured people.
Du Teng walked in front of Van Cleef with an expressionless face, looked at the other party, and suddenly punched out, hitting Van Cleef's abdomen again, and then when the other party couldn't help but want to kneel down, he grabbed Van Cleef's leather armor and pulled it up.
"Edwin Van Cleef, I don't care what you have to do, and I don't care what you want to do, but you'd better show me clearly, I'm not Varian, and I don't care too much about your feelings. Do you believe it or not? If I wanted to, I could wipe out your Brotherhood of Defia in an instant, and I can guarantee that you won't even be able to fly out all the time. ”
Du Teng had a gentle smile on his face, but the words he said were so cold that the hairs on Van Cleef's body stood on end.
"I'm sorry, my majesty, I was rude before."
In the face of absolute power, it is not a shame to admit defeat and give in.
Van Cleef saw this kind of thing very openly, and he was actually very familiar with the information of the outside world, and he knew that at present, in the north of the continent, led by the Kingdom of Gilness, an alliance that was stronger than the alliance had been formed.
And unlike the Alliance, which is surrounded by enemies on all sides, the Alliance's international environment is very stable, whether it is Gilneth or Quel'Salas, or Kurtilas and Pandaria, they actually don't have too many enemies. Sure, there are things like trolls and ogres, but they're too minor compared to the Horde and Alliance.
Slightly until the alliance was formed, the elder race and the country themselves were able to resist these sporadic attacks, but now that the alliance has been established and the forces complement each other, it will be easier to deal with these guys.
Van Cleef knew very well that the man in front of him was not Varian, and he had the strength to send a large number of troops to destroy him, if this was the case, maybe Varian would be particularly supportive.
So he didn't dare to really snub the other party from the beginning, and his performance just now was just deliberately suppressing the other party's prestige. Of course, he himself knows that he may not be able to suppress it, but he just wants to tell the other party through his actions - Defia is not an ordinary group that gives and takes, if you need our help, please show sincerity.
It's just that he didn't expect that the other party didn't play cards according to common sense at all, and it was a kick and a punch when he came up, and he felt that his internal organs seemed to be a little displaced, just two attacks brought such damage, and it looked like the other party had no strength at all...... What if the other party gives it their all? If it's just a fist, how many punches can you take?
Van Cleef immediately did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly relented.
It's not okay to be soft, this highness Limu's combat power is a little beyond his imagination, if he continues to be tough with the other party, he is worried that the other party alone can completely wipe out their Defiya brotherhood.
"Humph!"
Seeing that Van Cleef had softened, Du Teng snorted coldly and let go of his hand.
Van Cleef's body suddenly became shorter, and I have to say that the power of two consecutive blows is indeed terrifying. It stands to reason that his body is already very strong, he has trained in MI7, and he often works with others in the Stonemasons Association, not to mention the steel and iron bones, but it is not too weak. But on the contrary, he almost couldn't even eat the opponent's two punches, which made him even more afraid of Du Teng's strength.
The other members of Defia next to them were dumbfounded, and they looked at their leader, at the man with their back to them, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.
"What are you doing? Get out! ”
When Van Cleef saw that his men were still standing in place like fools, he suddenly became angry and scolded sharply.
The others suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly left the place.
They also saw that this was clearly a figure that even the leader didn't dare to mess with. And the leader calls the other party Your Majesty, is this man also a king? Now that the situation of the human kingdom can make the leader so cautious, I think the only one in the north is the king. Completely ruled all the lands in the north of the continent, such a big man, they actually slashed against each other just now? If it weren't for the other party's good mood, maybe they would all be killed.
Thinking of this, these people left faster, but in a matter of seconds, they were all gone.
After the idlers had left, Van Cleef stood up and respectfully welcomed Duten into his room.
The so-called room, which was just a cabin on a huge ship, opened the door, and inside a little girl in pocket leather armor ran out and ran towards Van Cleef. But when she saw Du Teng and the others, she stopped timidly.
"Vanessa, come here!"
Van Cleef beckoned and called his daughter over.
"Come, I've seen His Majesty Limu."
"Your Majesty?"
Hearing this word, Vanessa's eyes suddenly widened a lot, and she looked at her father a little strangely, in her memory, wasn't her father very opposed to the nobility? Why would the head of such a nobleman as His Majesty appear here?
"This is His Majesty Limu, the king of the Kingdom of Gilneis, and has nothing to do with Varian in Stormwind."
As soon as Van Cleef saw his daughter stunned in place, he knew what the little guy was thinking, and quickly leaned down and said quickly.
Vanessa suddenly realized that she wasn't the king of Stormwind.
As long as it's not the big bad guy, if it's the king of another country, it should be a good guy!
Vanessa thought so, and finally obediently gave Du Teng a standard warrior salute.
"Vanessa Van Cleeff, I've seen His Majesty Lim."
The voice is very immature, and looking at her small body, she is obviously a child, but she has to make the same movements as an adult, which is really full of joy.
"Okay, don't be polite."
For Vanessa, of course, Du Teng will not treat her father like this, after all, such a cute little Lori is still treated differently from a middle-aged man.
Van Cleef sent Vanessa out, and the room was left with him and Duten, Duten's bodyguards, and the little girl who was taken by Duten.
Van Cleef glanced at the little girl, he wanted to ask just now, but he never had the chance, and now there was no one else in the room, so he mustered up the courage to look at the little girl, "Your Majesty, this is ......"
"Oh, this is a little girl I met when I first entered here, I see that she has commendable courage and is also a material for training, so I am going to take her back to Gilneth and let her be professionally trained, doesn't she want to kill the nobles of Stormwind? I can create such opportunities for her. ”
Du Teng smiled and stretched out his hand and gently touched the top of the little girl's head.
The little girl was still a little foggy, and she didn't realize what was happening to her.
But Van Cleef knew very well what this meant, and his eyes were red, "Your Majesty, my daughter, Vanessa, although she is still very young, after several years of training, she now has good strength. If Your Majesty needs a subordinate, please take my daughter with you, she also wants to kill the nobles of Stormwind! ”
If he can send his daughter to the side of such a king, even if she is a guard, she is a hundred times stronger than ordinary people, and of course he doesn't want to miss this opportunity.
