Chapter 33: The Tragedy of Tulayan
In the evening, the sun was setting and the breeze was floating, and the Coalition's camp in the hills of Hillsbrad looked particularly bleak in the dim light, and the soldiers were coming in and out, and the air was filled with a faint fishy smell, and no one knew whether it was the smell of the sea breeze below the hills, or the effects of the terrible battle half a month earlier, or simply people's delusions.
The first battle between the Alliance and the Horde in the hills of Hillsbrad should be said to have ended in the victory of the Alliance, the Alliance not only dealt a heavy blow to the Horde that came across the sea, causing the other side to lose its troops, but also successfully prevented the other side from attacking the entire hinterland of the Alliance, and firmly confined the opponent's army near the coastline.
In order to achieve this series of results, the alliance also paid a lot of price, the newly formed Silver Hand almost lost more than half, the griffin knights also suffered a lot of losses, and the ordinary warriors suffered more than 10,000 casualties, except for the troops of mages and high elves, almost no team was complete.
In the half month since the end of the battle, the alliance and the tribe have been silently licking their wounds, preparing for the next fight, and I believe that in terms of time, it will not be too far from this fight, according to the alliance's high-level estimates, even if the orcs from across the sea carry a certain amount of rations and plunder in the hills of Hillsbrad, the logistics will never last more than a month, that is to say, in half a month, if the orcs do not launch an attack and break the blockade of the coalition forces, they can only starve to death or swim back to the south of the Eastern Kingdom.
Therefore, although there was no sign of an orc attack, the warriors stationed in the camp patrolled cautiously, sparing no disturbances.
It's just that in such a strict atmosphere. There are still a lot of interesting things happening in the camp.
At this time, I saw that in the camp where the High Elves were stationed, a handful of knights with silver hands were gathering behind a tent. They looked at a scene not far away with strange faces, exchanging glances with each other. Every now and then he muttered quietly.
"Hey, do you think Tulayan has any drama?"
"I look at the hanging, which of those high elves is not above the top, Tulayan is quite good in humans, and it is not enough to see it in the elves!"
"I think so, too, and that one is a high commander, and I heard that he is also a nobleman in Quel'Thalas!"
"I'll bet a silver coin, and I'm sure it's going to be fine!"
"The Light is above, Billy. Paladins can't gamble, and if the Bishop doesn't blame me, I'm willing to bet two silver coins! β
"Alas, poor Tulayan, it seems that we will have to comfort this little fellow later!"
At this time, as the center of the discussion, the paladin Tulayan was extremely nervous, as one of the first four paladins of the Terran race and the adjutant of the commander of the alliance army, this young paladin can now be said to be the best partner in the eyes of many Terran girls, and he must be strong and powerful. To have status, his appearance is not bad, but unfortunately, these advantages cannot make him more confident at this time. Facing the small curtain in front of him, he couldn't open his mouth and kept swallowing saliva. The flowers that he had finally picked in his hand were also clutched to death by him, and they were almost broken directly.
After a while. After taking a few deep breaths, Tulayan opened his mouth and asked the tent, "May I ask Aurelia if you are there?" β
Poof. With a soft chuckle, the faces of the Silver Hand Paladins not far away were distorted, and they held each other tightly before they could resist the urge to laugh, and the strange appearance couldn't help but make the elves patrolling nearby pay attention, and they were very hesitant to come forward and ask.
In normal times, Tulayan's strength is estimated to be very easy to detect the small movements of his teammates, but at this time, all his energy is focused on the tent in front of him, and he doesn't notice anything wrong.
Then there was a noise in the tent, and a high elf with blond hair and blue eyes in red armor walked out, looking at Tulayan standing outside his tent, and his brow jumped.
"Adjutant Tulayan, do you think anyone will answer you if I'm not there?"
Looking at the paladin in front of her, Aurelia felt a little headache, she was not a child who didn't understand anything, she naturally understood what the other party was planning, but she didn't think there was any possibility between the two sides at all, not to mention the messy relationship between her and Mo Wen, just Tulayan's own conditions couldn't get into Aurelia's eyes.
Not good-looking (from the perspective of elves), a bit of a cowardly personality (often blushing), IQ is also worrying (the scene just now), and most importantly - not elves yet. You must know that there is a big gap in lifespan between humans and the High Elves, Aurelia is at least a thousand years old, but she is still young and beautiful, but Tulayan estimates that it will not take a few hundred years, and the bones will be turned into dregs, and the masters of human beings can certainly improve their own lifespan, but they are still far from being compared to the elves.
If Tulayan opened his mouth to make it clear, Aurelia would definitely refuse, so that the other party would die of this heart, but the other party didn't say it clearly, and she was embarrassed to throw her face directly, after all, Tulayan is also the adjutant of the supreme commander of the alliance, and she has to give some face, but she has been annoyed by Tulayan a lot in the past few days, and at this time, looking at the wilted flowers in the other party's hands, she was faintly a little unable to suppress her anger.
It's a pity that Tulayan didn't notice this at all, although his height was not short (the most slender of the four paladins), but he couldn't stand Aurelia's tall figure, and after coming out of the tent, the latter's green eyes directly met Tulayan's eyes, and that awe-inspiring gaze directly made Tulayan subconsciously lower his head.
"Aurelia, thisβI just picked it up from outside the camp, and I hope you can take it." After squirming a little, Tulayan finally handed over the flower in his hand, and his face turned slightly red.
Aurelia rubbed her eyebrows, she didn't take the flower, but hesitated for a moment, looking at Tulayan, as if she was going to say something.
But at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and a handsome figure with blond hair walked over. A few steps later, Aurelia came to his side.
"Aurelia, you're here. I'm looking for you! Lord Lothar wants to entertain us tonight, so come with me! β
The comer's hand rested on Aurelia's shoulder so naturally. Aurelia frowned, but didn't resist.
It was foreseeable what a blow this scene would bring to the young paladin, who almost immediately opened his mouth and said with some confusion: "Your Highness Kael'thas, you, you-"
"Oh? Knight Tulayan, you're here too, do you have some business to find Aurelia? β
Looking at Tulayan, who was gloomy in his eyes, Mo Wen, who had just rushed over, felt a dark feeling in his heart. But on the surface, he still said politely, "Don't worry, it won't be delayed much, don't you say, dear!" β
As he spoke, his hand slid all the way from Aurelia's shoulders to the other's waist and rubbed it.
Aurelia snorted softly, but didn't retort. On the contrary, he took the opportunity to move closer to Mo Wen's arms, but a pair of turquoise eyes were aimed at Tulayan.
How could Tulayan not understand what was happening, under Aurelia's gaze. A face suddenly turned white, and he stammered, "Ah, no, no, no. I still have something to do, so I'll go first! β
I didn't wait for Mo Wen and Aurelia to reply. Just flew away and left.
And looking at his departing figure, Mo Wen immediately chuckled. Although he didn't sign a contract, Aurelia had long been regarded by him as his own, and this Tulayan wanted to pry into his corner, it was a dream, and he deserved this blow.
The smug Mo Wen forgot about it for the time being, and from a certain point of view, it was actually him who pried the foot of Tulayan's wall.
It just didn't seem to be able to see his triumphant expression, and Aurelia immediately hit him in the abdomen with an elbow, and then pushed Mo Wen's whole body out.
Gently brushing her hair, she looked at Mo Wen is chest hugging, and said with her feet: "Have you hugged enough, His Royal Highness Prince Kael'thas!" β
Mo Wen bared his teeth, "Aurelia, why are you still so short-tempered, it's rare to come out together, can't we get along well?" β
"Get along?" Aurelia sneered, "When will you take care of my sister, Liadrin, and the others, then come and tell me about it!" β
It has been many years since Mo Wen left Quel'Salas because of Sylvanas, and Aurelia has heard some rumors about Mo Wen and other women, plus on the way to support this time, Mo Wen didn't hide his relationship with Liadlin at all, naturally he was caught by Aurelia, and the female ranger became angry because of this, if it weren't for the wrong time, it was likely that a scene of chasing and killing Mo Wen would be staged again.
And listening to Aurelia's accusation, Mo Wen didn't care, but patted his chest instead, and said shamelessly: "That! Aurelia, don't you think our elves have too much time? I think it would be happier for everyone to get together, and I guess Hill doesn't want to be separated from her dearest sister either! β
"You! You! Listening to Mo Wen's shameless remarks, Aurelia was so angry that she didn't know what to say, her chest kept rising and falling, and it took a long time to calm down, and she didn't pay attention to Mo Wen, and walked directly towards her tent, and only glanced back at Mo Wen before entering the door, and said through gritted teeth: "Your Royal Highness, are you sure that you are an elf, not those damn human nobles?" β
Mo Wen didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "Are you going to come to my tent tonight?" Speaking of which, we haven't made out in a long time! β
Aurelia almost stumbled and glared at Mo Wen deadly.
"Go find your Liadrin, bastard!"
After that, he got into his tent and didn't pay any more attention.
And a person was left in place, but Mo Wen touched his chin and chuckled.
"It's really a fierce horse, whether it's personality or strength, it has the value of collecting, hawkers, anyway, there will be a while, let's play slowly first!"
On the other hand, Tulayan, who had just experienced the tragedy of a broken love, left the elven camp in despair, and what awaited him was a group of Silver Hand companions with equally silent expressions.
"You, you! How did you end up here? Tulayan was a little dumbfounded, and looked at his companion and suddenly felt a little dizzy.
"Alas!"
The paladins sighed softly, walked past Tulayan one by one, and patted him lightly on the shoulder.
Then he saw an older knight with a wisp of vicissitudes on his face, and comforted: "Tulayan, relax, first love is always beautiful and sour, and one day, you will find your destiny mate!" β
Tulayan's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at his companion and opened his mouth slightly.
"Thank you, Raul! But why do I want to cry even more after listening to your comfort? β
"-Ahem!" The paladin suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, the vicissitudes on his face could no longer be maintained, he coughed, and smiled at Tulayan, "That, in short, don't take this matter to heart, the other party is a high elf, and the difficulty is too great for you!" When this war is over, I'll invite you to drink! β
"Yes!" The lovelorn paladin nodded fiercely, looking at his companions and his heart was full of gratitude, although because he was young but he was the first batch of paladins, he was not less ridiculed by his companions, but at a critical time, these people were still very reliable.
However, at this moment, another paladin suddenly touched his chin, glanced at Raul, and said with some confusion: "Raul, are you sure that the reason why you invited Tulayan to drink is not because he just helped you win a lot of money?" β
"Hah! What do you say, do you think I'm like that? The corners of Raul's eyes twitched slightly, and he said unnaturally.
The other paladins looked at him, and then said in unison, "Like! β
"You, you guys, I'm not the only one who just won, Billy, you've just won a lot!" Raul, who had been exposed, suddenly became angry and pointed at the other knight and shouted.
"Hah! What do you say, Raul, paladins can't gamble! Unexpectedly, the knight rolled his eyes and refused to admit it.
"You guy, can you tell me what's going on with those silver coins in your clothes right now? You bastard! β
Looking at the Silver Hand companions who were jumping and pointing fingers at each other, the young paladin suddenly felt that he was a tragedy today, and that the next time he confessed, he must stay away from these damn bastards. (To be continued......)
