Chapter 627: Dark Deal
The leader recruited by the fanatics is Marcels Shaw, who was later one of the main leaders of MI7 in the Kingdom of Stormwind, a master assassin.
Although Marcels is over thirty years old now, and has fought a lot of battles, he still looks immature in comparison, not as calm as he was later, and the whole person seems to be high-spirited and energetic.
This raid on Fenris Island, he was cool.
It's not that you feel cool when you kill a lot of enemies, it's mainly because of the feeling of overriding and crushing brought by this novel combat mode. This is something that cannot be experienced in training or even in small-scale combat, and only when this kind of real large-scale operation succeeds in achieving the expected results can the feasibility and superiority of this mode of operation be thoroughly proven.
The number of the Scourge Army on Fenris Island is several times that of the Clover Guild Warband, and it is the defender who relies on the fortifications to wait for work, but it is extremely passive, as if this is not their territory, but the cage battlefield set up by the Clover Guild Warband.
Marcels had just joined a dozen fanatics to annihilate a Scourge team consisting of more than thirty abominations as the main force and more than two hundred immortals as the auxiliary, when he received this special communication.
He identified the location of the sender maniac, and rushed over, this was already the depths of the city, and there was indeed a high probability of encountering big fish.
And when they met, they found out that they knew each other.
"Saber-toothed tiger, this world is so small, I didn't expect us to meet again in such a way. Marcels said as he reached out and pressed it beside his ear, and his visor was tucked away, revealing his face.
Karel felt bitter in his heart, it turned out to be a former colleague, and he had been cheated by him.
Of course, Karel's city government will not show its true attitude. He smiled and said: "If you think that we are people who take money and work hard, it is really important to be with the boss! Look at you, it seems that you have just married a beautiful wife, and she is radiant, and I can only rely on selling the news to save my life, and by the way, I can earn some capital to start a new business." ”
What kind of person Karel is, Marcels knows very well.
Since Marcels was promoted to a core member through good performance, he has been eager to learn knowledge to make up for his own shortcomings, and his vision ability is not what it used to be, and he can see at a glance that Karel is a dark knight, and he is above the captain level.
Marcels judged that Karel should have some important information, but this man had always been cunning and could not be led by him.
So he replied: "You're right, it's really important to choose the right boss, and I'm very happy here, so I'll report your past truthfully." Please, if your message is really worth a lot, my boss will give you a satisfactory reward. ”
Karel was depressed, but there was nothing to say.
Marcels's past is naturally not a good thing, and the negotiator has a prejudice as a result, and he may find it difficult to ask for a price.
What Karel didn't expect, however, was that after a somewhat difficult wait, he met Garin Tolbain directly.
Not many people knew this unsociable prince, but many people knew him. No way, a man of the hour like Kane, who has a lot of power and can always get things done, has always been the focus of various organizations.
Tyranus usually pays attention to collecting Kane's information, and before attacking Beiliu Fort at night, he even made up for the relevant information for his command's assault.
Many officers of the Scourge Legion, including Karel, slandered in their hearts after the night attack: It's better not to make up for it, and they didn't say anything about it at all......
Anyway, Karel recognized Kane at a glance, and in his eyes, Kane had a very special temperament, unlike anyone he had ever met, which he could not describe, but which made him feel awe from the bottom of his heart.
This situation made Karel himself feel strange, he was an ambitious man, naturally there was no lack of arrogance, he was not even convinced by the Lich King, and felt that he could also do something earth-shattering, sooner or later.
But to Kane, he surrendered involuntarily, like a mouse seeing a cat.
"Oh, that's good, it seems that you know your talent very well, and the path you have chosen is very suitable for you!" Kane said as soon as he came up.
Karel thought that Kane was making fun of him, but after thinking about it, he was a prisoner, and a big man like Thorbain was guilty of finding superiority from him.
Kane is indeed telling the truth, not sarcasm.
Karel's talent is very suitable for walking the path of darkness, which is very rare, especially since Karel is not a half-blood, but a pure human, which means that he is one of the very few dark affinities in the world.
Karel's fear of Kane from the bottom of his heart is actually the fear of Kane's contract power, the Dark Force, and his extraordinary talent, which makes him have an unusual sensitivity to the dark, so that he can detect traces that others can't detect.
Kane raised his hand and pointed at it, and Karel felt that his body was light, and the feeling of invisible shackles was gone.
Kane pointed to the chair next to him, then sat down first, and said to him, "Your former colleague told me about your black history. As you can imagine, after all, most people care a lot about right and wrong, unlike you, who will never be bound by those things, as long as the price is enough. ”
Karel listened to the spirits, Kane said his heart, he looked down on those who were too entangled in good and evil, right and wrong, felt that it was a kind of bondage, and it was easy to be calculated because of it.
Then Kane said again: "So we won't bother with that this time." It can be seen as a transaction. I'll give you a promise here, give you a chance to trade equally, I won't take the opportunity to lower the price or anything, your goods are good, I will give a high reward, as for what to give, I will sell it here, it depends on whether you believe it or not. ”
Karel smiled and said, "Your Highness's credibility has always been ......"
As a result, Kane waved his hand and interrupted: "Alas, there is no need to talk about this kind of routine, I just said, this is a business, I won't let you suffer, but I won't let you take advantage of it, don't take my past character, that doesn't apply to this time." This time you can only bet on whether or not I am an honest businessman. ”
Karel had actually thought about it a long time ago, if he met Prince Torbain, the ideal negotiation partner, then he would be honest and not play tricks.
He now deliberately showed a resolute appearance, and said, "I believe in Your Highness. ’
Kane is perceptive and naturally aware of Carrel's artificiality, but it must be said that even if it does not reach the Oscar level, there is a grade of a good actor. Of course, he didn't expose it, there was no need.
Karel smiled, "Well, please." ”
Karel sells two main pieces of information.
One is the planned raid on the sewers of King Lordaeron of the Tyranus Division.
The other is the location of the core lair of the Terranus Division.
Others are less valuable, like when Terranus came, how he did his work, and so on. Of the secondary information, Kane was most interested in Karel mentioning the drake with silver-gray skin and pure black scales, and a magical glow like black ashes.
If he expected it to be true, it should be the servants of the Eternal Dragon. This is also in line with his speculation about the big picture, and the Eternal Dragon is indeed in cahoots with the Lich King.
"Your intelligence does carry a lot of weight. Kane smiled at Karel and said, "There is only one last step left, and that is to confirm the authenticity of this information." Rest assured, it won't take too much time. And about your remuneration, I can also tell you first, power and resources. ”
Kane said as he flipped his left hand, and there were two more crystals in his hand.
"Let's talk about power first, for people who have the heart to do great things, power is the most fundamental. How can others be as strong as oneself? And strength has attributes, and it often determines the path that the pursuer will take. In front of you, there are two diametrically opposed paths, and it is difficult to say which one is better, you choose for yourself and think about it slowly. ”
As he spoke, two crystals floated towards Karel like feathers.
Karel only needed to touch the crystal with his spiritual power, and immediately felt the pure, vast and tame power within. There was a sudden ecstasy in my heart.
This strength alone has far exceeded his expectations, and he knows that no matter which one he gets, his strength will be greatly improved, and he can't even imagine how strong it will be by then.
Still, he listened to Kane's words, and he tried to force himself to calm down and think.
Kane has already made it very clear that if he is as smart as he is, he will naturally be able to analyze the pros and cons of different options very quickly.
Choose the one that shines with golden light, and he will walk on the path of the Light. This path will allow him to live in the sun from now on, and no longer have to be in the company of sneaky and filthy. But this road is not easy to follow, and he can come up with a lot of invisible restraints whenever he thinks about it. And these restraints must not be lazy or tricky, otherwise they will lose the favor of the Holy Light and the road will be lost.
In other words, the path of light is essentially a path of self-restraint and cannot be derived from nature.
The other dark and deep crystal, the power was both familiar and unfamiliar to him, familiar because he was sure it was the power of darkness, and strange because he had never been exposed to the power of darkness of this quality before.
It can no longer be described as simply good or bad, pure or turbid, but after contact, he feels that the dark power he has been using before seems to be fake. It's similar to drinking fake wine all the time, and after taking a sip of really good wine, I feel unwell. Of course, instinctively knew it was good stuff.
Karel's talent made him instinctively realize that this was the real power of darkness. Then the question arises, how could Garin Thorbein, the Apostle of Light, master such a thing?
Could it be that his Light has conquered the darkness once and for all?
Karel was quick to dismiss this possibility.
If that were the case, the Light would have been in full swing long ago, and where would there be room for darkness to wreak havoc everywhere?
Regarding this question, Karel only thought about it for a while, and he broke off his thoughts uncontrollably. Now is not the time to ponder this. After all, it is a matter of the future road, and even the life or failure of a person.
After all that he has been through, Karel is much less arrogant and arrogant. He knows that although he is very capable, he will still take detours if he makes a mistake, and there is still the possibility of losing and dying, and he has actually forced himself into a very disadvantageous position now.
Since ancient times, those who have relied on betrayal and betrayal to get a way to survive and turn around have very few end up well. If it is himself, he will not reuse it when he encounters this kind of person, and it is a big deal to have the need for a thousand gold bones, so he will raise it first. Karel reckons that Kane is likely to have this attitude. This is already very good, people are worthy of doing big things, the volume pattern is big enough, unlike some people, behind the glamorous, is fraud and pit in the name of justice, especially like him, many people will feel that if they are pitted, they will be pitted, and they deserve to be pitted.
Indeed, many people like Karel who do not follow the right path, do bad things, and are ambitious, many people take it for granted, and even feel happy and happy to be able to pit such people.
Kane didn't do this because he didn't want to get used to his own faults, and there were some precedents, so it was better not to open them. This time, I feel that people like Karel have no psychological burden to cheat, and next time there will be more people who can calmly pit each other, and in the end it will become a habit, a habit of taking advantage of others, and not counting what they say.
can be a person and do things in an open and honest manner, why let yourself look like a lewd camp?
Like this time, Kane felt that Karel would eventually choose the darkness and follow the path he had expected. He woke up when he met him, and his talent was perfect for the power of darkness, which he thought Karel would remember......
