Chapter 004: The New King (I)
Ranlos's slightly distorted reaction was not due to incomprehension of Chorazzi's thoughts, but on the contrary, the latter's way of holding high the banner of the masses was too advanced in this era of absolute monarchy, so familiar to him that it was even a little uncomfortable.
Since ancient times, class disparities and distinctions have always ensured the interests of a minority, and millions of people have never been able to be treated fairly in such an environment. But compared with the powerful and celebrities, the masses have always had the upper hand in terms of number and strength. As long as the teacher is famous, in the voice of the masses, anything that seems impossible has a great chance of success.
There is more than one precedent for such a thing in the world of Lanloth.
To get back to the point, what Jorage expressed, Lanlos was simply unfamiliar. However, he knew too well the Duke who wanted to work for the benefit and fairness of the people.
Will the famous Assassin leader fight with Lordaeron for land for the interests of the so-called people, and will he fight against the alliance that defeated the Horde?
Hehe, the joke is too big.
"Isn't Ravenhold an Assassin Order?, how can you have the heart to get involved in territorial separation?" Lanlos took the tea from Verin and took a teasing sip.
Jorazzi's eyes narrowed slightly, and although the movement was small, Lanlos could feel the deep surprise in the duke's heart.
Also, such an impassioned tirade, but a small mage saw the key at a glance, and Jolazi's current mood was more than just surprise.
However, the Duke is also a thoughtful person, and he did not reveal much about this: "Ravenhold is a vassal of Alterac, and this is what I should do." ”
Sure enough, no one in this position is thin-skinned.
Lan Luo arranged in his heart, and still kept a smile on his face: "Okay, since it is for the benefit of the country and the people, I don't reject it." However, as you know, I've been busy a lot lately. ”
"Although Alterac is poorer than other kingdoms, its population base is not as small as it seems. Lanlos didn't ask too much to give himself enough face, and compared to the beginning, Jorazi was obviously much more open-minded.
"If you can fight for their interests in front of them, let alone demonic spells, even if you are an assassin leader, I have a way for you to earn their respect and approval. ”
With a raised brow, Lanlos carefully reflected on the other party's meaningful words.
Although he said not long ago that he was creating public opinion from Kael'thas, to be honest, he couldn't control the millions of mouths in the entire eastern continent. It's like gambling, if you win, you will make a lot of money, but if you lose, then you will really become a street rat.
If it's like Jorazi said, he can at least help himself get a seventh of the chips.
Don't look at only one-seventh, most people's views have always wavered, one mouth and ten mouths may not change their views, but hundreds of thousands of mouths can easily set off a storm in the ocean of people.
"What do you want me to do?"
Joraci smiled, "Soon, the two kings of Lordaeron and Riptide Castle will officially march into the palace of Alterac. When the time comes, I need you to stand with me, and with your exploits for the Alliance, I believe we will be able to preserve a large piece of territory. ”
"I thought you wanted to be king. ”
"King?" the duke clasped his hands to his chest, his back slightly straightened, and his unbeatable sparkle, as if everything in this world was nothing but ants, "am I?"
The king holds the right to kill and seize the land, and Jorazi Ravenhod controls the whole world.
"There are no brains that cannot be missed, only unaffordable prices. Facing the sword-like gaze of the King of Assassins, the corners of Lanloth's mouth curled slightly, and trust and doubt emerged at the same time, "I'm curious if the rumors about Ravenhold are true?"
Jolazi smiled lightly, straightened his collar very elegantly, and his tone was flat, as if he was just going to the market to buy vegetables and see meat: "As long as you can afford the price, you are welcome to verify." ”
——————————————————
The steep mountain wall, under the cover of the snow, quietly probes, the howling mountain wind, wrapped in countless flying snowflakes to meet the face. If it is just a visual feeling, the quiet and melodious beauty, the single and not monotonous quiet color, the rugged mountains. Poetic beauty is full of breathtaking charm, with snow fluttering and serene reach.
Unfortunately, the cold wind cut through the skin like a steel knife, and the biting cold almost froze everything here.
In this kind of weather, even Lanlos, who had traveled to and from the Far North several times, couldn't help frowning. And just frowning......
Ignoring the envious gaze of the Lordaeron soldiers who were still stiff in the outer three layers, the wizard in a thin black robe patted the snow-white crow feather pads and raised his hand to push open the door in front of him.
Ahead, several blazing braziers were lined up to the feet of the magnificently clad king. Of course, he was not the king of the land.
Beside him, there was also a man in red armor, and if it weren't for the crown on his head, I am afraid that he would have thought that he was just a strong soldier.
"Good day, Your Majesty Terenus, Your Majesty Thorbain. ”
"It's him ......"
"Lanloth, right? It's the first time we've met, but I've heard of your name. Glancing at Torbane, who frowned, Terenus stood up, giving the elven mage enough respect.
"It's just a name. Lanlos was modest, "What I have done is nothing compared to the contributions of the two Majesties to this world. ”
The world?
The two kings looked at each other, and snapped back to the news that had recently gone viral about him and the Tyrius Secret Pua.
"Joked, if it weren't for Your Excellency, we would have paid a huge price if we wanted to win the war. ”
Hearing this, Lan Luos lowered his head slightly, and his eyes hidden in the shadows showed a little interest. Although it was a compliment, Terenus's words quietly revealed some distance. It is no wonder that, with the support of Ravenhold and Kael'thas, the news of his use of demonic spells has spread almost throughout the entire Eastern Continent, and these people in power are naturally not able to clearly express their views on this matter in front of the public because of his merits.
"Is there anything important that Sir has come here at this time?" Compared to Terenus, Torbain's temperament was as direct as his temperament.
"It's not important, it's just that things haven't been going well recently, and I want to catch up with my friends and soothe my mood. Lanlos looked helpless, and even sighed deeply.
From the perspective of the two kings, it is natural to think of those highly controversial rumors about each other recently. Of course, they didn't know that those rumors were deliberately spread by this guy, but they all showed sympathy for him because of his performance.
"We happen to be here, if there's anything you can do to help, just ask. "Terenus's personality makes it difficult for him to tolerate the attacks of public opinion on any soldier who sheds his blood for the Alliance.
"I am truly flattered by His Majesty's generosity. ”
"Don't say that, although we can't publicly reward your merits in a formal way because of Quel'Thalas's withdrawal from the Alliance, it is our duty to give some help to the best of our ability in private. ”
"That being the case. Lanloth smiled and said slowly as if jokingly, "So, can I ask you to withdraw Alterac's troops?"
!!
The two kings' eyes widened at the same time, with a little puzzlement, a little anger, and a great deal of surprise, as they stared at the elven mage who was talking wildly.
