Volume 5 The Return of the King 4 Barov
The Barov family is definitely a conspirator from top to bottom, from ancient times to the present day. Although the family has only experienced two generations from prosperity to decline, they have not given up their desire for land and rights even after they are dead. Alex Barov's father was called Abigail Barov, and in Lordaeron's undisclosed history, this guy not only participated in the battle for the crown prince of the kingdom of Lordaeron, but also bet on the right treasure. The duke, who was torn between King Lordaeron and King Alterac, used his wits and skill to achieve the family's wealth rivaled by his wit and skill.
The vast majority of wealth accumulation is not very clean in the early days, and this is especially true of sudden wealth. The times will create opportunities, but when the opportunity comes, the unlucky people will only become the accelerant and slag ash of the times, and only the lucky people will make a lot of money, right! It's the lucky ones. This luck is built on strength. So that sentence tells us that opportunities must be for those who are prepared!
The family seized on the contradictions of the Minethir family to gain the trust of Tyrenus, the crown prince of the greatest kingdom, and used this relationship to profit from the exchange and trade between the kingdom of Lordaeron and the kingdom of Alterac, and used the stupidity of King Auden' Pirenod to gain the best interests of themselves while controlling the future direction of the country. Even if the kingdom of Alterac was divided and dismembered, the most fundamental reason why this family still stands is that they know how to judge the situation very well, no one can be offended, everyone needs him, waiting for the opportunity to move like a snake hunting, and attacking in time is like a tiger that flies.
But this is not to praise them, they are also very hateful!
When he saw Duke Alex coming out of the catacombs, this guy was very different from the past, he was no different from a dried corpse, but more importantly, his whole state was also very different from the past. He couldn't speak anymore, all he could do was look blankly ahead and howl loudly.
There are people who will cheer at the situation of this family, but it is not necessary, although they have fallen to such a situation, the members of the family are still alive. Living is not just about being able to breathe, eat and, there is another way. Did you know Barov had three children? Two sons and one daughter. You should have heard the later story, two sons are on earth, and one daughter is in the underworld. This is the strategy of their family, but it is not the Duke of Alex, who has been reduced to a brainless corpse, that really supports this family, but the two women behind the duke.
Yes, two women! They supported the family, which was almost dead. I had seen them a long, long time ago, and one of them was the Duchess of Barov, whose name was very much in line with her temperament, and her name was Illusia. It was a plump, sexy, radiant woman. The second is the real ruler of the family, the tsundere's eldest daughter Jandis. At this time, it was none other than her who was standing beside the duke!
This woman was a ruthless character, and she could tell what she was from a young age, and it was hard to imagine what had happened since the army left when she saw Serlin unkempt like a dog. Now this genius has not only become extremely peculiar in appearance, but even his eyes are different...... He must be crazy!
"Why are you here?" The woman's tone of voice at this time was stiff, like a frozen pouting in a winter dung pit.
"My king wants to see if you're all dead." There's no need to be polite to her.
The woman's expression didn't change in the slightest, and she rolled her eyelids, "I thought my king had abandoned us. ”
"All those who are faithful to Him receive the highest reward." At this moment, I wanted to speak for Arthas.
"You've been gone long enough......" The woman's voice was full of displeasure, she wasn't interested in the reward.
"When he's here, you know it's all about waiting...... It's worth it! ”
"Hmph......" the woman's laughter was full of disdain, "how long will it take?" ”
"You ......" glancing at everyone present, including the unrecognizable lich. Just be patient. ”
The slight movement on their bodies symbolizes their dissatisfaction. The group of guys had indeed gained self-consciousness, and even if Arthas did come, they could be a scourge in this situation.
"But the current situation does not allow for such a wait." The woman said. "You must have seen the situation around you all the way." She raised her hand, "The Scarlet Crusaders rule this land, you should know who they are, wait until you come back...... Maybe everyone here has already fallen to the ground. She always looks at people with an indescribable scrutiny, and the uplifted corners of her eyes can only show that this woman is not destined to be a down-to-earth guy.
"The one called Sylvanas...... Didn't they support you? ”
"Hah!" The woman laughed, and the loud voice echoed through the wide hall. "Sylvanas, the elf!" There was disdain and hatred in her tone. "People like her can only be enemies!" This is said decisively, and this tone is extremely firm. "It is said that she has betrayed my king!"
"Heh......" sighed softly, "yes! ”
The woman's eyes sharpened when she heard this, "She never helped us!" The woman said word for word.
"And what else did she do?"
The woman snorted, "She has set herself up as king." ”
At this time, I was surprised to hear this news...... I was really a little surprised, I didn't expect her to do this, how dare she do it! But this kind of thing seems to be expected. "She's ...... What king? ”
"The Forsaken." "They claim to be the Forsaken," the woman said. Although the woman was unhappy, there was a little agreement in her eyes, "We seem to belong to what she said...... Forsaken. ”
"You didn't answer the question."
"I've answered, Mr. Bill." The woman said, "She is their king." ”
"Where is she?"
"Lordaeron City." The woman said, "But now the names have changed, and they call themselves ...... The Undercity. The woman's tone changed again, "Their name looks like a mouse." But after saying this, the woman immediately stopped, rolled her eyes, and said, "Damn! ”
It's good that these two forces are not mixed together, "So how is your research?" No one spoke when he asked the question, not even Serlin didn't react at all, as if he hadn't heard. Until the woman Jandis tilted her head and said to the master of creation, "What do I ask you!" He reacted suddenly, and then said leisurely: "I need more test samples!" More! ”
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that he was already a little sluggish, he couldn't help but ask a few more questions, although his eyes were fixed on Serlin, but the rest of his eyes were fixed on the woman.
"Me! Professor Serlin Kasdinov will surely create the world's greatest stitching monster! He suddenly raised his voice. He shouted loudly, but the crooked jaw and the dull eyes that slanted upwards showed that he was crazy. When the gaze swept back to Jandis, the woman's indifferent eyes made people shudder.
"Kel'thugad often speaks of you." Seeing that Sherling had become like this, he could only ask the lich named Les, but at this time the lich could no longer tell that it was him, and in the dim light, the clothes and accessories on this skeleton did not match very well!
"Willing to serve him." The lich just nodded lightly after spitting out the words.
"You were ...... You can contact him often. Glancing at the guy's face, he saw a white glow in the sockets of his fleshless face, which had lost eyelids and eyeballs. He didn't answer, just nodded slightly.
Hmph, though he didn't speak, and this simple gesture only meant that he hadn't been in contact with Kel'thugad at all, or that he couldn't do it at all. "What are you researching now?" It's better to think about it.
"Magic and ...... Plague ......," the lich's jaw moved, "are the things we need most." ”
"What's going on?"
He let out a dry laugh, "Didn't you see it on the way here?" ”
"Straight to the point! Don't beat around the bush. ”
"The water in this land is no longer enough to support their large-scale use of troops." The lich said, "This is the greatest ...... Achievement. ”
That's why it's called the Plague Land, and it's why the land is dead completely. Remember the crystal clear and bright Lake Keldaron? Now everything is clear...... They polluted the water in the land, but what Jendis said just now was a bit of a conflict with what this guy said. But when he glanced at Jandis again, there was no expression on the woman's face.
"In that case, then you are still relatively safe for the time being."
This made Jandis immediately shake his head, "If that's the case, we don't have to hide in this dark underground." ”
It's a rhetoric, but there's no need to expose her, for she has eight hundred eyes, and when I'm gone, she'll probably have something to do with the lich. But it didn't matter, even if Arthas came back, the guys wouldn't be able to do their best for him.
This basement is getting bigger and bigger, and it's much bigger than I used to think! The most surprising thing is that there are still living people in it!
That's right, the people I saw at the time must still be alive! Living people can emit a special kind of energy, which is extremely weak, but once there are more people, the whole room will become stuffy.
The pale, languishing humans looked with a dull look at a female elf in front of them, who was giving a lecture to herself, ignoring the crowd that appeared at the door.
"Who is she?"
Before Jandis could answer, a gloomy voice came from behind him, "Class!" Shut up, please! ”
