Chapter 602: The Council of the Three Hammers
"You...... Are you telling the truth?" and a few other dwarves looked at Edward in amazement, a great joy rising up in their hearts. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Yes, I'm sure His Majesty Magni isn't dead. Edward laughed, "Although his soul is not in the body, there is a thin line that no ordinary person can find running downward. ”
"Do you understand what this means?" Edward's soul strength was much greater than that of the average person, and he could vaguely see the movement of Magni's soul, "This means that His Majesty Magni has gone to the depths of the earth, and his soul may have been united with the spirit of the earth because of that ritual, and it has not died." Judging from the strength of this soul link, His Majesty's soul is not only not dissipating, but is strengthening. ”
"The earth has for some reason become violent and frightened, and they are now afraid of the discovery of strange powers like terrified children. Edward speculated deeply, "But if they encounter a familiar and friendly existence, they will go out of their way to seek refuge, and this is the case with His Majesty Magni now." ”
"As far as I know, dwarves evolved from the Titan's creation earth spirits, and they are born with a very high affinity for the earth, which is why this kind of situation occurs where the soul is forcibly pulled out by the earth, but the body is protected by the earth. ”
"You mean, His Majesty's body is not petrified, but protected by the earth?" Belgrad asked delightfully.
"Yes, but this change cannot be reversed, which means that even if His Majesty Magni returns successfully, he will be transformed into a diamond body......" Edward shrugged his shoulders, "You should all know that frightened children often don't care about the consequences. ”
"This ...... It should be fine. "As long as His Majesty Magni is alive." Can Mr. Edward, then, predict when he will return?"
"I don't know. Edward said regretfully, "So, there is still a problem about the ruler of Ironforge that needs to be resolved. ”
"Since His Majesty Magni is not dead, there is no one in this position to sit in. Belgrad laughed, "It's ......."
Before the advisors of the Explorers' Guild could finish speaking, there was a commotion outside the throne hall.
"Looks like His Majesty Varian has arrived, let's go out and see how the King of Stormwind has dealt with this matter. Edward said, leading the way out of the throne hall.
By this time, the square in front of the throne hall had been surrounded by a crowd of people, and the Black Iron Guards had separated them, and watched the crowd nervously, not daring to act rashly - their Majesty was being held by Varian with a sword to his neck.
"Look at this usurper!" Varian shouted, his voice echoing through the open space. His identity is no longer a secret now," said Magni Copperbeard, shedding tears over the rebel woman. How sad he would be to see his beloved daughter do such a thing to his city and to his people!"
"This is not your throne. And you got it with lies and intrigues. You threaten your innocent subjects and threaten them to take titles that don't belong to you. I can't sit back and watch you stay on this stealing throne!"
Looking at Varian, who was gradually falling into a state of uncertainty, Edward shook his head in disappointment. But he didn't stand up and speak, after all, this was an internal affair of Ironforge and Stormwind, and he didn't want to interfere.
Seeing that Edward didn't move, Anduin couldn't help it. The prince, who had a great sense of justice, stood up in public, and shouted in a slightly reprimanding tone: "Father, you should not have done this to her. ”
"Anduin, this is not the place for you to be, get out of here. Varian heard Anduin and pointed at the sword around Moira's neck with a visibly trembling expression, and his slightly frantic expression visibly retracted.
"But that's where I'm supposed to be! You sent me here! You want me to know about these dwarves, and I did. I knew Magni well, and I was there when Moira came. I have witnessed the chaos she has wrought, and I have witnessed people taking up arms against her, almost leading to civil war. But no matter what you think of her, she is indeed the heir to orthodoxy!"
"Her pedigree may be orthodox," Varian snapped, "but her mind is not. Magni always thought she was under a curse. Also, son, she wants to put you under house arrest, and she has arrested a large group of people for no reason. Varian grabbed Moira tightly, tilting his head slightly, "She's not fit to be a leader! she's just going to ruin everything Magni has worked so hard for!" he ...... Everything he sacrificed for!"
Anduin stepped forward and held out a hand pleadingly: "She has not been cursed, father. Magni refused to believe the truth - it was he who had driven Moira out because she was not a male heir. ”
Varian's thick dark brows furrowed. "You are insulting a noble deceased, Anduin. ”
"No, Magni is not dead. Anduin suddenly remembered what Edward had just said, turned to the dwarves around him and said loudly, "Your Majesty the King is not dead, Mr. Edward, the Paladin Forerunner of the Demon Hunter Order, has personally confirmed this fact. ”
"So......" Anduin said, turning to his father as he looked at the furiously cheering dwarves around him, "you cannot decide the life or death of his daughter, whom he has long considered to be guilty, before His Majesty Magni returns. ”
Varian's eyes widened at Anduin's words, and so did Moira.
"I have to say, Your Majesty Varian, you have a very good son. Edward stepped out of the crowd and looked at Varian.
Varian is no longer the little prince he met with a vision for the future, he now has his own ideas and paths, his adoration of Edward has been soothed by his thorny experiences, and he is wary of the head of the Demon Hunter Order.
The king of Stormwind simply nodded to Edward and pushed Moira out, watching her stagger and stand in horror.
"Since Her Majesty Magni is still alive, then you cannot ascend to the position of queen. Varian said in a loud voice, "Until Your Majesty Magni returns, I, as the king of a staunch ally of Ironforge, propose that the three dwarven clans of Copperbeard, Brutehammer, and Black Iron form a council to jointly rule Ironforge. ”
"I'm sure that's what most dwarves want to see...... The unity of the dwarves! This council is called ...... The Council of the Three Hammers!" Varian finished speaking, looking at Moira again, "You, on behalf of the Black Iron Clan, and Furstad on behalf of the Brute Hammer. Whereas, Muradin, or Brian, represents the voice of the Copperbeard Clan. ”
Moira nodded cautiously, her mind in turmoil when she heard the news that her father, Magni, was not dead. The citizens of Ironforge Castle who were watching around let out a burst of cheers.
After Varian finished speaking, he nodded slightly, and the MI7 team around him immediately put away their swords. At the same time, Varian hugged Anduin - he was proud of his son.
"Come on, son, let's go home. Varian took Anduin's hand and prepared to take him back to Stormwind, he didn't want his wonderful son to continue to face danger outside.
"Wait...... Father. Anduin shook his hand away and said, "I'...... I would like to learn from Mr. Edward ...... Light."
