Volume I: The End of the Outlaw 126

"I'm going back." I looked at his face.

He glanced at me, "Are you sure you're not crazy?" Mr. Bill! The lone wolf looked a little angry.

"I'm pretty sure I'm not crazy, Winston." I stared at him.

"You can't go yet, Bill." The lone wolf flatly refused.

"That's my hometown! I have a brother there! I said solemnly.

"Even if it's true, you can't leave for the time being, I have something for you to do."

"You can find someone else, Winston!" I suppressed the fire in my heart.

"No...... You have to do it. ”

"Why!"

"Even if what you say is true, how do you go back? Jogging? Or swimming? Do you know how to sail? Do you have money? ”

"I can figure it out!"

"Hmph, when you have a way, maybe the war will be over a long time ago." There was no expression on his face. "Get this done, and I'll give you enough money to get you back."

"What's the matter?"

"Tomorrow, you go to Nanhai County. Go there and find Bass from the Nanhai Cents Firm, and he'll tell you what to do. ”

"Do what?"

"When you go, he'll tell you more about it."

"I need to know what I'm going to do, whether I'm going to kill or steal."

"Go protect a mine." Lone wolf said.

"It's not what you say, it's ...... It won't be solved for a while! ”

"You don't have room for bargaining, Bill. Go get this done, and I'll send you back, I said. ”

Faced with the lone wolf's unfulfilled promise, I chose temporary obedience and accepted this errand.

That night, I climbed onto the roof of the tavern. From the rooftop, I ran towards the king's fortress. As he ran, he remembered the four statues beside Ouriden. I'm not here to fight, but I can't guarantee what they'll do to me in the event of a conflict.

It was not a difficult task to climb the outer wall of the king's fortress, not to mention whether the average thief could get in, and not one of the ten thousand thieves who entered the king's palace and stole anything could be singled out.

Climbing over the castle walls, I reached the base of the castle wall without any problems. Coming to the shady side of the castle, he climbed up with his hands and feet against the outer wall like a gecko. The temperature here is much lower than that of Lordaeron, and it is still a little cold when the wind blows.

The waning moon hung in the sky, and the moonlight, which was not very bright, barely allowed me to see through the window what was going on inside. I remember about Oriden's room in this castle. I didn't choose to go inside the castle, not just the patrolling guards, Ouriden should have locked the door when he slept.

After a brief thought, I settled on Ouriden's room, climbed down from it and hung out of the window, and I looked inside, it was indeed his room. I didn't dare to ask if the lone wolf Oriden was there, but I inquired from the bartender that the prince was now in the castle.

Ouriden has been fully identified as the successor to the kingdom. As the crown prince, he no longer has to go to Dunhold Castle, serve in the army, and guard the frontier. He was now completely in the palace, waiting for his father to die and then take over the throne.

And for Oriden's lace news, according to the bartender, he has three lovers, two of whom still know each other, and there are many legends about specific identities. The king wanted to make a marriage for him, but Auriden didn't seem to be in a hurry. This also made his father very dissatisfied.

He tugged at the window gently, and it opened gently.

Taking a deep breath, I climbed onto the windowsill and rolled over into the room.

Lying on the floor and observing the environment in the room, it was the same as before. A slight snoring came from the back room, where Oridon should have been. I thought of several ways to say hello, but none of them seemed to be very appropriate, after all, he must be unhappy to disturb his sleep, he should be even more unhappy to come so uninvited, and he was probably not only unhappy to sneak into his house so quietly.

Standing at the door of the bedroom staring at the sleeping Ouriden inside, I hesitated for a long time. At last he dismissed the idea of rejoicing at first sight with him, and stood in front of his bed.

Bending down to look at his face, I gently poked him with my fingers. He hasn't seen him in a few years, and he has obviously gained a lot of weight.

Oriden was poked awake by me, from sleepy eyes to anger and then shock. The flurry of expressions took only two seconds on his face.

"You! You're a human or a ghost! "He's going to scream.

"Shh I choked him.

"Your Royal Highness...... No, it's the crown prince! Now it's the real crown prince. I stared at him, "Relax, I'm just here to talk to you!" ”

"You!" He took my hand away! "You and the hell...... You are crazy! ”

"I'm not crazy, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! I'm just here to report back to you. ”

"It's midnight?" He glanced out the window, "Midnight! ”

"Can I see your Highness during the day?"

"It can't be the middle of the night!"

"Okay...... Thank you, Your Highness, for your leniency! I can't thank you enough! But I do have something to report to you this time. ”

"What's the matter?" He stared at my right hand, which was behind my back.

"I didn't betray you!"

He stared at me. "You said no, how can I believe you!"

"If I betrayed you, now you can't talk like that." I took my hand out from behind. "I didn't kill those people, I just wanted them to tell you that I didn't betray you. Not all the time! ”

He didn't speak, he still looked at me.

"Fred's death was a strange thing, and I didn't do it."

"If you can get to my room, why didn't you kill him? How do you explain your disobedience? ”

"His woman, do you know Your Highness?"

"Yes. The second daughter of the Presto family. ”

"There's something wrong with this woman! Not only does she not sleep, but she has a connection with someone outside. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I suspect she's an undercover agent for Fred's side."

"Who's that man?"

"Do you have a cousin?" I stared at him.

Auridon's face froze, his eyes looking at me, and his eyes telling me he was thinking. "Who are you talking about?"

"Easten!" I say.

"What do you know?" His tone suddenly became serious.

"That's all, I don't have a chance to continue investigating...... After Fred died, she was taken into custody and locked up in Lordaeron's prison, a place I couldn't get into. While...... When the messenger came to Lordaeron, the woman died as quickly as she could! ”

"How do you know?"

"I've been lurking outside the prison."

"I mean! How do you know she's connected to Easten! His face turned ugly.

"I shot down the ravens she let go." I say.

He held out his hand.

I hesitated.

"Evidence." He said.

"I'm exiled! Your Highness. "I said." I lost everything in Lordaeron. ”

"Hmph......" his face twitched. It is said that you used to mix well. Why is this happening? ”

"That's another thing! Your Highness! ”

"Speak." He regained his haughty demeanor.

"Some time ago, there was a guy in Lordaeron, who claimed to be the Earl of the Stormwind Kingdom, has Your Highness seen him?"

"What's wrong?"

"He's not the Count of the Stormwind Kingdom! There's something wrong with that guy, he's a wizard! He can do magic, and I'm controlled by him...... I did something bad, and I was lucky to be exiled. ”

"To put it bluntly." He stared at me.

"He dissuaded King Terenus from sending troops to aid the Stormwind Kingdom."

"What does it matter?"

"The Stormwind Kingdom is about to fall!" I frowned.

"What does this have to do with you?" Auriden frowned as well.

"This is a prophecy! Prophecy from the south to the north! Evil will descend on this world! Death and destruction will envelop the world. And some time ago, King Ryan of the Stormwind Kingdom had already asked King Tyrenus for reinforcements, but soon this guy came to Lordaeron and told Tyrenus that it was just a small riot within the Stormwind Kingdom! It's not at all! It is the source of evil! I said seriously.

"Your Highness! It was a group of creatures we had never seen before, more powerful and bloody creatures than all the races in this world right now! They are derivatives of demons! The Stormwind Kingdom had asked for reinforcements from Terenus twenty years earlier, when the trolls invaded and the north did not send troops, and their old king was killed in battle. This time they asked for help again, if it was just a small riot, King Lane would not have asked the north for help! ”

Auriden just looked at me with an impatient expression. "What does this have to do with us?"

My eyes widened, "Your Highness! This black tide will eventually sweep across the northern continent! They will break through the human cities from the sea and from the land! This is prophecy! ”

"I don't know what prophecy is, and I've never heard of any prophecy, and you tell me, even if we send troops, what will we get? Will the Stormwind Kingdom give us silver and gold for gratitude? Bill! They are tens of thousands of miles away from us! Tens of thousands of miles! What is there to worry about? Even if the things you mentioned are called, there are still four kingdoms in the north! And the elves and the spiky hats! Oriden said.

"Say it again! Terenus did not agree to send troops, what is our country sending troops for? Does it show that our military is strong? Or don't take Terenus in your eyes? He snorted. Tell me about your discoveries in Lordaeron. He turned and walked out of the bedroom.

"What?" I'm already buzzing in my head right now. He rejected me!

"What else did you find in Fred?" He poured a glass of wine.

He ...... He wanted to usurp power. ”

"Who did he plot with?"

"The Marquis of Saipan in Lordan-Rembrell."

"Who else?"

"A lot of people...... Including Duke Nicholas of Andohar. ”

"Hmm...... What else? ”

"The nobles of Lordaeron, he has touched everything he can touch!"

"Are there any specific measures?"

"He took advantage of the chaos to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, but the king was blessed by the Holy Light and miraculously recovered, and he did not succeed. He seems to have a prejudice against the Barovs...... "I said.

This made Oriden stare at me deadly. "What?"

He promised to return the Barov family's estate in Brill to the Marquis of Saipan in Brill. And he sees the Barovs as enemies and ......"

"And what?"

Suddenly I almost said that O'Raidon didn't know about bandits! He didn't know that Barov had conspired with Fakurest to trap him!

Do you want to say it?

Auriden was staring at me with a frown!
