Chapter 43 A bloody story
The two thieves did belong to the Syndicate, and they were teammates. The thin thief was a close subordinate newly trained by the Syndicate leader, Duke Falkurest, and they were somewhat related. The fat man was a descendant of a small noble family in Alterac.
Three months ago, Tirion Fording returned with honor, and this news made his apprentice, Little Barthilas, panic. He immediately sent someone to inform his uncle, Old Barthilas.
His uncle was a steward who served under the mayor of Andorhal, Halberion.
Because of the war, some local nobles in Lordaeron lost control like wild horses. The Barthilas family got in touch with the noble Duke Falkrest of Alterac! He and his nephew started a smuggling business.
At that time, Tirion Fordring was not yet the great lord of Hearthglen. He and Barthilas's father were both generals of Mardenholde, so they were old friends.
The Second Orc War broke out, and they went to the battlefield together. As a result, Barthilas's father died on the battlefield. And Tirion Fordring became the first generation of Silver Hand Paladin because of his heroic fighting! After the war, he was named the Lord of Hearthglen.
Now Tirion Fordring has returned, and he has always been law-abiding. At this time, Alterac has become the target of public criticism. It is very dangerous to do smuggling business with nobles who betrayed the Alliance! In order to prevent Tirion from knowing about this, they sent a family member to communicate with the Syndicate and temporarily stop these businesses.
As a result, the man left with the letter and never came back. The anxious Barthilas family sent another messenger. After the messenger arrived at the camp of the Alterac Syndicate, he found out that the first messenger had never arrived in Alterac.
The Duke did a good job. He didn't want to lose this way of making money. So he agreed to send two people to find the missing messenger! The life or death of the messenger didn't matter. But the letter was deadly enough! The nobles' letters must be stamped with a seal to be effective. And there was one on the letter. Unfortunately, it was stamped on a piece of communication paper used exclusively by the syndicate.
If King Terenas knew about this, although the king could not control his subordinates, since you are fighting fiercely with the enemies of the kingdom, don't blame him for exiling Barthilas to a remote place to dig potatoes.
The lucky ones who were chosen to handle this matter were a fat man and a thin man. The thin thief relied on his relationship with the Duke and always looked down on the fat thief. Whenever there was something, he would always order him around. But the fat man had no way to deal with the thin man. Because the Syndicate had always been lax in management, and many of its subordinates were from aristocratic families, bullying was common.
On this day, it rained heavily. The fat man was sent by the thin man to fetch lunch for him. When the fat man returned to his residence, he was soaked. So he went to the "lounge" out of boredom and played a few rounds with those gamblers. He won a lot of money at the beginning! He felt that he had found a way to vent and make money! So he fought until dark.
As a result, he not only lost his savings, but also owed 50 gold coins. He returned home extremely depressed. He wrote all this in his diary! The book that Jaina stuffed into Taelan Fording's pocket was the fat thief's diary! The numbers on it were the money he owed and the names of the creditors!
The fat man returned home and stared at Ms. Bai in despair. The soaked clothes, the bullied days, the dead-end job, and the unpaid debts made him think of suicide.
At this time, he thought of the thin man. He decided to beat up the people who bullied him before he died. The flowing moonlight shone on the dining table. Looking at the IOU from the casino, he suddenly had an idea and a new plan came into being.
The next day he borrowed some money and invited the thin man to go out with him. The thin man followed him out of curiosity. This time, the thin man, like the fat man, won a lot of money at the beginning.
The boss of the "lounge" has a big backer behind him. Although the thin man is the Duke's confidant, there is no father and son in the casino! The ending is the same. But this time there are two people who want to commit suicide.
The next day, when the fat man passed by the "lounge", a woman inside pulled him into a small room. He felt that he was going to have a romantic luck! But he was not a reader, so how could he be qualified to have a romantic luck?
The coquettish woman not only tore up the IOU he left at the casino, but also gave him 10 gold coins. The fat man suddenly realized what was going on. His life became more comfortable. From then on, he would bring people to the "lounge" to play from time to time!
If this continues, the fat man will live until his big chin flies over his head! But not long after, he and the thin man were unexpectedly promoted. They became professionals. God was blind, and the lucky thin man received a gift from the Duke, a weapon that drives low-level thieves crazy: the bar weapon!
The owner of the "lounge" also has a son! He is also a professional, so the fat man received a deposit of 100 gold coins. Because the bar's murder weapon is not the "lounge" murder weapon. As for whether to be willing to part with it or not, there is nothing that cannot be turned into chips for gamblers who have lost their money. Just when the fat man was about to lead the thin man to the casino to kill everyone. The Duke's order was issued, and they were sent out to find the messenger from the Barthilas family.
Taylan Fording thought of the letter in Jandice's hand. He guessed that the fat man must have sneaked over and stolen a messenger, but unfortunately he only stole a letter!
Later, they should have opened the letter. Why did the fat man steal it? Actually, it was Tailan's guess. Because the thin man liked to instruct the fat man and liked to take advantage. So the letter was kept in the thin man's hands.
As for why the fat thief did not choose to slit the throat of the beautiful Jandice, Tyran Fordring still couldn't figure it out. Although Jaina's Frostbolt was more troublesome than Fireball in terms of pure damage, Jandice was at a higher level and her spells were more powerful. This might be related to the fact that she had kept a certain distance from him throughout the battle.
Catherine couldn't figure it out either. For now, she just guessed that the ice mage did cause more trouble in the battle. And she took the initiative to stay away from Tyran. After all, the melee fighters who were slowed down did not have a good ending. The ice mage's Frostbolt, Enhanced Frost Nova, Cone of Ice, Blizzard. All involve the effects of slowing down and immobilizing. This makes the thief who relies on agility to win very uncomfortable. It should indeed be eliminated first.
Catherine asked, "What are you going to do about this?"
"Tell this directly to King Terenas? Barthilas himself will probably be fine. His uncle will be dismissed and exiled."
Taelan Fording said: "Father won't say anything. At most, he will impeach Officer Barthilas. This will not change anything. I will let father pay attention to him!"
Exposing Barthilas now would only delay the danger, and the end result would only be a deeper hatred. It would not change anything.
Catherine asked, "What are you worried about?"
"Auntie, that druid's letter is even more dangerous!"
"Why? That's just the ravings of a madman. I happen to know this man! He was the first night elf to visit Dalaran. He is affiliated with the Benevolent Society of the Cenarion Circle. It is a very famous extreme animal protection organization."
"He and Archmage Kel'Thuzad hit it off and promoted a cat-loving movement in Dalaran."
"Okay, but I think he'll be in big trouble. I still suggest that the mages in Dalaran send someone to investigate Northrend. I was reading a book about the legend of Tirisfal at home some time ago, and my teacher, the great astrologer Solanlian, told me that those whispers are extremely troublesome.
Four thousand years ago, the first place where the high elves landed in the eastern continent was Tirisfal! But after staying there for a while, many of them went crazy because they heard similar whispers. And the druid himself also heard the whispers! "
I have something to do today, so I'll post it first and revise it later.
