Zhu Xing's eyes were foggy, looking at the heroic image of the lightbringer Uther when he died in battle, and in his heart, he had already recalled the past events of Arthas and Uther, a pair of masters and apprentices who were famous all over the world and had far-reaching influences, especially the main reason for the breakup between master and apprentice - the massacre of Stratholme.

When Zhu Xing heard the question raised by the Great Lord Mograine, he was thinking about what he would do if he was the head of the Silver Hand Knights at that time, facing this order from Arthas!

When Zhu Xing asked himself with this question, he suddenly realized that his so-called idea that he could give up everything for the sake of freedom was so empty and unworthy of scrutiny!

In fact, that's easier said than done!

As said in the original novel, Zhang Jie, Zheng Zhe and others reached a consensus that once someone threatened their safety, then they would be killed, and everyone nodded in agreement at that time, with an extremely serious attitude. However, when they were really faced with whether to abandon those newcomers, Zheng Zha was in a difficult situation, and even broke with Chu Xuan for a strange newcomer.

Although Zhu Xing prides himself on how firm he is, he can't do it if he really asks him to slaughter thousands of innocent civilians! Even if these innocent civilians would turn into ignorant undead creatures in a few hours, he would not be able to do anything before they transformed!

Arthas believes that the citizens of Stratholme have been infected by the undead plague, and in a few hours they will become undead creatures and become part of the Scourge Legion, so that the Scourge Legion's strength will increase again. Lordaeron's soldiers would have died even more. The situation in Lordaeron will also get worse. Therefore, Arthas felt that since these citizens of Stratholme were infected with the plague of the undead, then even if they had not yet become undead creatures, they were already dead, so that I would kill these citizens of Stratholme first, so that they would not become undead creatures and become enemies after they died.

And in the eyes of Uther, the lightbringer. These innocent citizens of Stratholme are indeed very miserable, they really shouldn't be turned into undead creatures in ignorance, but they don't deserve to be killed by their own prince before they become undead creatures.

For Uther, the Lightbringer, their target is the undead creatures, their enemies are the Scourge Legion, and humans have never been their enemies, so even if they are confronted with these miserable citizens of Stratholme on the battlefield in the future. He died in the hands of these undead, and he has no regrets!

Because. That's the fate of being a paladin!

Was Arthas wrong?

From his own point of view, Alsace was not wrong!

However, Arthas has forgotten why the Knights of the Silver Hand were founded and what kind of profession the Paladins are!

As Uther the Lightbringer said, even if these citizens of Stratholme will become undead creatures in a second, you must not kill them in advance, as for these people who will fight us after becoming undead creatures, at that time, it is our fate whether you kill them or they kill you!

Arthas thought that Uther, the Lightbringer, was old, rigid, and stubborn, and that his fatalism was a pessimistic ostrich theory, and that only by cutting off the tentacles of the Scourge Legion first, like himself, could he contain the rapidly expanding Shili of the Scourge Legion and protect the lives of more Lordaeron soldiers.

However, Arthas did not realize that he was unwittingly afraid of the Scourge Legion!

It was this fear that made Arthas unconsciously want to weaken the Scourge and defeat the Scourge in other ways, rather than fight the Scourge as fearlessly and honestly as Uther, whom he mocked as an old and pedantic Uther.

It is precisely because of this deepest fear in his heart that Arthas hates the Dreadlord Marganis very much, because, as the Dreadlord Marganis, he knows very well the fear that Arthas hides in the deepest part of his heart!

In fact, the reason why Uther was able to become the head of the Knights of the Silver Hand, and why he was praised by an excellent commander like Tulayan, was because Uther was not desired!

It was precisely because Uther, the Lightbringer, did not have so many thoughts in his heart, that he and his Knights of the Silver Hand, a military force that could shake any kingdom, were able to exist independently. It was Uther's belief in the selflessness of the Lords that made everyone not afraid of this powerful sergeant, and if Uther no longer pursued the path of righteousness, but did not pursue victory like Arthas, then Uther and his Knights of the Silver Hand would have ceased to exist.

"Glory is my life!"

Zhu Xing's misty eyes gradually clarified, he looked at Uther's immortal will, the immortal holy light, and looked at the slogan of the Silver Hand Knights written on the front of the stone platform, and he chanted in a deep voice word by word!

"Mentor, if I were Uther, I would also refuse to carry out Arthas's order to slaughter the city!"

Zhu Xing said in a deep voice in his heart.

"Oh? Boy, haven't you always thought that infinite space has infinite possibilities, you can't stick to the rules here, you must do whatever it takes, after all, you don't need a reason to live, and you can do whatever it takes to achieve this goal? ”

Hearing Zhu Xing's words, the Great Lord Mograini asked meaningfully.

"Mentor...... I was wrong! In fact, people can be shameless, they can be despicable, they can be lowly, but they must not have no bottom! If a person really does whatever it takes to achieve his ends, then his path will come to an end! When you break through the bottom limit, break the discipline, and start to do whatever it takes, then others can also do whatever it takes to deal with you! ”

"Just like the Prince of Arthas, he broke through the bottom limit, in order to curb the expansion of the strength of the Scourge Legion, he brazenly ordered the slaughter of the city, and comforted himself with the reason that all the people in Strathum were infected by the undead plague and were about to become undead creatures, in order to kill the Dreadlord Marganis, he ignored the exhaustion of his soldiers, and chased after the distant and cold Northrend, in order to stay in Northrend, he could break his promise and kill all the Natives of Northrend who burned the ships according to his orders, Such a person who broke through his own limits and did whatever it took to achieve his goals was eventually plotted by the unscrupulous and obviously superior Lich King, who pulled out the magic sword 'Frost Sorrow' and became the Lich King's most loyal servant - Death Knight Arthas. ”

"Mentor, what I mean when I say I'm wrong is that my heart is also afraid of this infinite space!"

"Alsace is a lesson for me!"

"If I, like Arthas, break through my own limits and start acting unscrupulously because of the deepest fear in my heart, then my path will soon come to an end!"

Zhu Xing looked at the stone statue of Uther, the messenger of light, the leader of the Knights of the Silver Hand, and the golden holy light that was still eternal and immortal even after many years of death, he said with emotion.

When Zhu Xing said this, he suddenly had a kind of realization in his heart, although the great lord Mograini wanted to visit his old friend, but the real purpose was probably to let himself understand this truth!

It seems that after the death of the lightbringer Uther, the Knights of the Silver Hand fell apart, and the creation of the Scarlet Crusade by the Grand Lord Mograine, the Great General Abidis, and the Grand Inquisitor Ethanlion also has a story. Presumably, because Uther refused to carry out the order of Arthas's massacre, I am afraid that in the Knights of the Silver Hand, there is not all one opinion, I am afraid that there are other opinions, and the voice is not small, otherwise, today's Great Lord Mograini would not ask himself such an extremely fierce soul torture by worshipping the Lightbringer Uther!

Just when Zhu Xing was thinking about it, the power of holy light in his body was quietly undergoing tremendous changes!

When Zhu Xing noticed it, this upheaval had come to an end, and he carefully felt the power of this new holy light, although it was still domineering, but it no longer had that kind of unscrupulous arrogance and willfulness, but became extremely strong and condensed, if Uther's endless holy light was a sun that never fell, then, now his holy light power is a platinum holy sword that cuts through thorns and thorns and cuts through all restraints and obstacles! (To be continued......)

PS: Actually, I've always felt that Arthas was going to slaughter the city because he was afraid of him, and even if all the people of Stratholme were to become undead, what could they do, just kill them, it would be no different from him slaughtering the city. And Uther broke with him also because Uther found that Arthas had shaken his faith out of fear, which was fatal for a paladin, because his foundation had collapsed.

What Zuihou has to say is that Arthas is still too young, not experienced enough, and his emotional intelligence is not up to par, like Gianna would not do that.
