The second volume of Storm Falls 205 is inevitable
Reggie's ass won't be better for a while. I've been given a very difficult task, and although the orc army has been withdrawn from the North Elwyn Forest, there are still many orcs left in the woods. Cleaning up these hidden dangers has become my job.
It is unknown whether these lone orcs were scattered when they were being pursued, whether they were deliberately lost, or whether they were deliberately arranged to act as eyeliners in the woods. These scattered small units of the team have become a great hidden danger. It's easy to find them, but it's very troublesome to find them in the woods and mountains.
But it's not that they can't find it, after all, these guys also need to eat, and most of them don't flee too far from human villages, which also confirms the purpose of their home.
However, I was amazed by the sight of a group of dwarf, green creatures that were on patrol that day, and when they saw our patrol, they wanted to run through the woods, but in the blink of an eye they were overtaken by our cavalry.
After surrounding them, these little things stared at us with big brass bell-like eyes, and even though there was not much panic in the eyes of the group in the face of us in a circle of horses and spears pointed at them. Everyone was shocked and didn't know what it was, vigilantly holding their guns ready to end the life of this auspicious monster.
I waved my hand, "What are you doing here?" ”
The greenskins all turned to look at me in surprise. I pointed at them and said, "Answer the question, goblins." ”
"Why do you speak our language!" A goblin spoke.
"Answer the question." I'm not polite.
"Goblin-speaking humans, huh." The goblin nodded, "We didn't mean anything, we didn't come to look for trouble, we just passed by, and we happened to pass by here, and then we were honored to meet you." ”
"To the point, what are you doing here?" I've had a very bad impression of these guys after dealing with them.
"We're just passing through."
"Where are you going?"
"Look for business." It says.
"There's no business here." I rejected it outright.
"No, no, sir, as long as there are people, there will be business, and the difference is what is exchanged for what." It's ugly when it smiles.
"What are you carrying?"
"It's nothing, it's just little things, like ...... Well...... Sir, our products are genuine, and the prices are all childless. ”
"Open your bags." I scolded harshly. The goods are genuine, Tong Su is not deceived, and all the people who do business tell it that the world is much better.
The goblins opened the package and looked at the goods all over the place, which was really dazzling, all kinds of small objects.
There were toys, telescopes, compasses, some magnifying glasses, and some delicate little boxes, none of which were dangerous or felt dangerous.
"How much do telescopes and compasses cost?"
"Such a large gold coin." As he spoke, he pulled a gold coin from his pocket, "Two for the telescope, half for the compass, and of course, I'll give you a discount if you want them all." It grinned at me.
I looked at the people around me, "Which of you still has money?" ”
"What do you want to do, sir?" A soldier asked.
"Buying something." I say.
"How can these monsters make such a thing?" He couldn't be surprised.
"Give me some money." I stretched out my hand.
Everyone shook their heads. looked at them, too, they came out to patrol, and now that people have basically fled, what's the use of bringing money. I touched my purse, and my money was long gone.
The goblins kept staring at me with big eyes, and I looked at them a little embarrassed, "It's expensive." I said.
"Tong Suo is not bullied, these are good things. Not only is it difficult to manufacture, but the lenses are made of crystal, so the permeability is very good. The head goblin said.
"What do they say?" The soldier next to him took a stubble.
"Tong Su is not bullied." I say.
"They look like orcs, they probably have relatives, and it's probably not a good thing for such an ugly guy, so kill them!" He said.
It's not impossible to kill them, and if you kill them in a place like this, you will kill them. But I didn't really want to do that kind of thing.
The goblin looked at me and the soldier next to me, and I tilted my head to look at the guy next to me, who looked disgusted.
When I turned my eyes to the goblins, the goblin smiled, "This is the first time we have set foot in your territory, and we have no offense, but we are all businessmen, just for money, not for grudges." Since I am fortunate to meet adults today, I would like to give these gadgets as gifts to Mr. ”
As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and held the telescope and compass in front of me. I stared at it, saw its eyes clearly, saw the musket on my chest, and quickly looked away.
I looked at the respectful goblins, and the other goblins didn't do anything. I didn't just take the two items from its hand, "How long have you been here?" ”
"Just arrived."
"Where are you going?"
"We just follow the road, and we don't know where the road leads, but where there is a road, there are people, and there are people who have business." It says.
"Have you ever met a creature that isn't human?" I asked.
"No, but we did find out...... Uh, lots of ruined villages. It was still held up respectfully.
"You'd better get out of here, there's no business here for a while." I reached out and grabbed the two objects in my hands. "And you don't know our language, and you have never seen a human before. That is, if it were someone else, you would have been killed as a trumpet orc. ”
"Of course, thank you, sir, for your advice, let's leave." It slowly withdrew its hands and said to me with a smile on its face.
I waved my hand and motioned for everyone to get out of the way. The group of guys packed up the package as fast as they could.
"Why didn't you bring gunpowder?" I asked suddenly.
Without hesitation, the goblin said, "That kind of business is not something like us can do. ”
"These guys don't look good." The soldier next to me reminded me. "Evil, very evil."
I didn't say anything, watching them fade into the forest.
We were on patrol for the next half a month, and I didn't know anything about the battle at Red Ridge Mountain. On the road, there were no heralds from the front-line troops, and there were no troop movements, only the supply trucks were transported to the east one by one.
I'm a little more sure, I remember that Stormwind was captured, but now it seems that I was mistaken, not only was it not captured, but it also thwarted the orcs. While the royal city was in danger, the Assassins did not appear.
But I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't remember what was wrong.
On this day, while I was patrolling the east of the town of Shining Gold, I received a notice from the herald that Lothar was going to the front. If the commander wants to go through this, I may have some other arrangements. We had been patrolling the avenue eastward, for an unknown number of times, and had waited until it was almost dark when we reached the village of Green, but we had not waited for Lothar and his team.
The more I thought about it, the more worried I became, and I couldn't put my mind at ease, so I got the boys out of bed and followed me to Shining Gold.
But I didn't find anything unusual until I found the garrison of Shining Gold. The garrison told me that Lothar had returned to Stormwind. I was a little upset when I heard the news, but when he said that he was taking a human and an orc, I felt like my mind was confused.
I yelled and asked him how long he had been gone, and the garrison told me he had left before dark.
I chased the patrol forward desperately, and suddenly I had a terrible premonition that made me shudder.
Thanks to the patrols, I shouted that I had found the orcs to open the gates. Horseback riding is not allowed in Stormwind during non-war times, but I can't care so much about it at this time, and besides, there will be no danger in the middle of the night.
Behind me about two dozen brothers were held at the gates, and I rushed into the city on horseback.
It's not a heroic feat, and I don't think it's really done to add much to me. But I had to do it, and I had to not let that happen.
Rushing to the outside of the King's Castle, the guards stopped me, and I said that I had something important to report before Lord Lothar was let in. Actually, I think I'm very lucky, if I want to go in the northern countries, there is no door.
The guard who guided me told me that Lothar and his party had been in for some time, and I told him to take me to Lord Lothar quickly, urgent military situation!
The guards didn't dare to slack off when they saw that I was in a hurry, and if they hadn't been able to run in the castle, he probably wouldn't have run directly. Walking briskly to the door of the king's conference room, I heard what seemed to be someone speaking inside.
I didn't hear any strange sound inside, and my heart was relieved. I lied all the way here, and I thought I wouldn't need to explain that kind of situation, but it's embarrassing to have no movement without me at this time. Cry wolf? Trespassing in the palace? Before I could react, the door to the King's Room had been pushed open!
Though only the king glanced at me, all the others present did not look back at me. I consciously stood in the doorway, then took a step to the side and moved out of the way.
Lothar stood at the large table in the conference room, a tall young man on the far right, and the green-skinned orc in the middle. It seems that I am overthinking, and there are several armored guards around the table around the king.
The young man was dressed neatly, but his clothes were visibly torn, and he was reporting something to the king.
The doorway where I was standing was more than ten meters away from them, and the man's voice looked tired.
The king held his chin in his hand and looked at the young man in front of him, and then turned his gaze to the almost half-naked orc. "Archmage Nalas Aylan gave him all his powers, and he had been asleep for so many years, like a living dead. In addition to sleeping, eating, drinking, and Lazar need to be taken care of, just like a pot of flowers. When he woke up, he was with me, and with you......" He pointed to Lothar. "You weren't that old then. The three of us have saved this country and made this country safe and stable for so many years. I wondered what kind of guy he was while he was sleeping, because I was eight years old when he killed his father. But he's a guardian, and I think everything he does makes sense, and he's so strong, so wise, and I trust him. ”
Ryan paused, "Still, I still don't believe he'd do anything like that." ”
"Guardian...... What he's doing now isn't protecting the world, he's going to kill us all. ”
