Chapter 85: Generous Rewards
Varian certainly said that, including armor made of the same shape as the one on Fordin, made of light cast iron and a lot of rare materials.
In addition, there are two top-level war horses, some rare materials, and various professional knowledge and cultivation notes.
"There aren't any items with the Stormwind Kingdom emblem on them, this is to avoid possible trouble." Fording took David to see what he had brought with him, and by the way, he introduced David to the woman in front of him: "This is Ilsa Cobin, a very good young fighter. ”
According to Fordin, Ilsa Corbin is one of the best of the new batch of warriors trained by the Stormwind Kingdom.
Originally, she was going to join the Storm Knights or the Royal Guard, but Varian gave the young warrior a new mission: to protect Prince Anduin Ureon.
At first, Ilsa didn't understand the true meaning of this mission, and it wasn't until he met His Majesty the King, Varian Urien, in the forest outside Stormwind, led by the current leader of MI7, Madias Shore, that he realized the magnitude of the task.
She must follow Tirio Fortin, the famous paladin, to a mysterious place. In that place, she must hide her identity and protect His Royal Highness the Prince, who also conceals his true identity.
Although there were many doubts, Ilsa did not refuse the task, and being valued by His Majesty the King made her full of motivation, and she said on the spot that no matter what difficulties she encountered, she would firmly complete the task.
Later, Madias took Ilsa to meet His Royal Highness Prince Anduin Urien, as well as the legendary paladin Tirio Fortin.
That's when Ilsa learned more details about the mission from Ferdin: in fact, there is not much danger, as long as the two of them can ensure that their identities are not revealed, there will be no problems.
It was also at that time that Ilsa learned that the village she would live in next, most of which were members of the former Defia Brotherhood.
I don't understand why His Majesty wants to send his son to the house of his 'mortal enemy', but Ilsa thinks that since he has accepted the task, he must do it firmly.
Therefore, she still didn't ask anything, and followed Ferdin, and His Highness Anduin to this place called Winter Village.
"Hello, my name is Ilsa Corbin." Because she had already greeted her beforehand, she would not call herself a warrior of the Stormwind Kingdom here: "You can call me Ilsa." ”
"Hello, Ilsa." After David and Ilsa introduced each other's names, they knew each other: "Here, no one will be entangled in your origins, as long as you don't say it yourself, it doesn't matter." ”
"I see, thanks for the reminder."
"Just call me David."
Ilsa, along with Anduin, alias Hope, will live in Fordin's cabin, and Fording will begin his journey again.
"I'll stay at Ironforge for a while in the middle of the day to make some arrangements, and by the time I return to the kingdom of Lordaeron, the great catastrophe should have begun."
Emotionally speaking, Fordin would prefer to go back sooner and stop everything from happening. But reason told him that there was no way to stop everything and nip the crisis in the bud.
What he can do is to save as many people as possible after the crisis erupts, so that the kingdom of Lordaeron will not die.
"I only hope that, until then, Varian will be able to solve all the troubles within the Stormwind Kingdom."
Fording has made several plans, among which returning to the Hearthvale and relying on the territory he has operated for many years to fight against the Scourge Legion is a must-do.
And the Stormwind Kingdom, the trip to Ironforge Castle, and David's Winter Village are the last moves he arranged for himself.
With just such a territory as Hearthvale, it is impossible to truly resist the Scourge that swept through the northern part of the Eastern Kingdom, completely destroyed Lordaeron, and destroyed Quel'Salas by the way, he must have strong enough foreign support.
"I'm afraid it's hard to ......" David estimated in his heart, the plot of Warcraft 3 is 20 years after the Dark Gate was opened, including Arthas's investigation of the Scourge Plague, the purification of Stratholme, the search for Frost Sorrow, the return home to stab the old king, and the Scourge Legion to sweep through the Eastern Kingdoms, all of which happened in this year.
With so much happening in just one year, and one event after another, Varian simply didn't have the time to solve the problems.
According to the level of chaos within the Stormwind Kingdom, Varian has not been able to clean up that mess for 25 years after the Dark Gate was opened.
"If you can, you can fight, and if you can't, come back!" David persuaded Ferding at the right time: "As long as you can save everyone, Lordaeron can be rebuilt." ”
"I know."
The two watched as Anduin and Ilsa moved their household items into Ferdin's cabin, and then worked together to sort out the payments that Varian had sent.
"Plate armor!" Davy's stature has always been despised by Fordin, who thinks that he may not have a chance to become a glorious paladin, but he used to be a staunch plate armor master, and when he was crisscrossing Azeroth, he only loved the plate armor class, and none of the non-plate armor classes could play for long, all of them became trumpets and warehouses.
So Varian's gift inadvertently poked David's liking, and he looked at the set of plate armor in front of him with a smile: "However, aren't the warriors of the Stormwind Kingdom all super macho men?" The size of this plate armor seems to be a little smaller? Was it made just for me? ”
Fording didn't answer, but explained that this armor used a lot of rare materials, of which the main material was light cast iron, which meant that this armor was specially made for paladins - before Anduin, Azeroth did not have a priest wearing plate armor. It's not that you can't wear it, it's just that for pastors, there is no need for it. There are already mages and shamans who wear plate armor, and they are the famous Ronin and Sal.
The whole set of armor is mainly a combination of purple and gold, especially the golden shoulder armor exudes a divine brilliance, which makes David, a user of holy light, feel very comfortable.
David noticed that the armor was similar in appearance to the Lightbringer outfit, except for the lack of a crown-like helmet.
"Put it away first, it's indeed a beautiful piece of armor, but it's too conspicuous to be worn out to meet people for the time being."
Putting away the armor, David looked at several other rare materials, mainly some rare metals, which were not in large quantities, only one or two pieces more, and only a small amount of powder at the least. There is an additional list of what they are, and the characteristics and effects of the material are written.
"Let's put it with Will first."
Finally, he looked at the pile of cultivation notes, compared to armor and rare metals, David valued these things more: the priest's cultivation notes, the paladin's cultivation notes, the mage's basic primer, the druid's basic primer, the thief's basic knowledge and cultivation experience, and the hunter's experience.
These things are far more important to David than the rare metal and a set of armor, and these notes not only contain the basics of mages and druids, but also the experience of cultivators, so that beginners can better understand the relevant knowledge.
In other words, if there is a suitable person, just relying on these notes, they can master some kind of mysterious power, and these are all specially requested by Fordin, otherwise there would not be so many types, even the druid notes of the night elves and the hunter's notes have been obtained.
Even in addition to the cultivation experience of the Holy Light Priest, there is also the experience of Priest Elune. Although both are classified as priests in the game, the Priest of the Night Elves is actually a priest of the Elune Sisterhood, which is a different group from the Priest of the Light, who believes in the Light.
The excited David flipped through it carefully, and saw the experience of the dwarf hunters, and even made more unexpected discoveries.
"Huh? How can there still be knowledge of shamans? ”
"In the first war with the orcs, the Stormwind Kingdom was the main force at that time, and they were the first humans to come into contact with the orcs and fight." Furding briefly explained why the Stormwind Kingdom was able to bring out the knowledge of the shamans: "After years of conquest, the Stormwind Kingdom has captured many orc captives. ”
It is not uncommon for captives to be caught and tortured for intelligence information.
In order to better understand this enemy, the Storm Kingdom did not let go of any information at that time, such as the shaman, which was once the main belief of the orcs and the spellcaster, was naturally classified and sorted out separately.
However, when the orcs invaded Azeroth, they had already abandoned their shamanic beliefs, so although they knew about the existence of shamans and spellcasters by various means, the information recorded was very fragmentary, and there was no support from actual cultivation experience.
"Understood."
David finally sorted out the cultivation experience in front of him, including the priest of the Holy Light, the priest of Elune, the paladin, the mage, the night elf druid, the hunter, the assassin (thief), the shaman and other professions, and the pure warrior training can also be taken care of by several captains, Ferdin, and the Ilsa Corbin, who is responsible for protecting Anduin, is an authentic Stormwind warrior.
It can be said that the 'initial career types' of his Winter Village are rich enough.
"Now, Mark can choose what kind of knowledge he wants to learn." Mark has never been able to truly grasp the Light, and he has no idea of continuing to compete with the Light, so he wanted to study in a different direction.
Before, there was no relevant knowledge, but now that the conditions are available, David is curious about how he will choose.
"Perhaps, the first human druid will be born here in Winter Village." Ferding thinks that a botanist like Mark might choose the way of the druids.
Davy, however, thinks Mark will become a shaman.
"A piece of bare cast iron."
"Deal!"
