Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 555 108. Your Majesty, you know me, I have always admired the Holy Light

   "Dean, you also received an invitation?"

When   Blake entered the hall of the Mage Tower where the academy lived, he saw all the members of the mission, including Dean Blue Moon and Prince Farodis, gathered here.

   And everyone holds an invitation card of the same style.

   He raised his eyebrows and asked:

   "The magic debate has been suspended?"

   "Well, after a three-hour break in the middle of the meeting, our fellow magicians in Dalaran apparently believed that dealing with political emergencies was more important than the exploration of magical truths."

   Dean Lan Yue replied expressionlessly.

Although    didn't seem to care, the pirates who were already familiar with Dean's character knew that Dean Lanyue's slightly sarcastic way of speaking clearly had a lot of opinion on Dalaran's colleagues.

   Dean took another look at the invitation card in his hand, and said to his disciple with little interest:

   "Since we have been in contact with human civilization, the name of Lordaeron has been constantly appearing in front of our eyes. This kingdom has a very powerful potential in human civilization. This king wants to be crowned emperor?

   And, does the matter of the academy we are advancing have any intersection with this king and his country? "

   Dean asked Black. The pirate knew the elegant meaning by hearing the strings, and he said in a gentle tone:

"Potential and anything are relative. Judging from the standards of the seven human kingdoms, Lordaeron is indeed a first-class power. However, although it is large in size, its strength is basically on a par with Quel'Thalas and Suramar. between.

  If the dean is not willing to waste time watching the ceremony, he can completely refuse it, which will not cause any trouble to the college.

   I don’t have to worry about how it will affect me. "

   "According to what I have learned from Dalaran mages in the past few days, Lordaeron's strength is basically equivalent to a medium province in the Elven Empire, similar to the scale and strength of Faronaar City.

   Well, judging from the development status of human civilization, it is indeed very good. "

   Prince Farondis also gave a very high-level elf-style standard comparison. The dean nodded, thought for a moment and said:

   "It's a little rude to refuse directly, the other party is a royal family after all.

   This invitation was sent to us again through the Kirin Tor channel. Our human spellcaster friends clearly want to help us integrate further into the civilization of this continent.

   They are willing to be our 'referrers', which is a kind of goodwill that must be responded to.

   But I prefer to devote my energy to the magical debates that I have with politicians, and I'm sure other mentors share the same idea.

   Well, let's send a messenger who doesn't have to participate in the debate to attend the ceremony on behalf of the college.

   This will take care of the goodwill of our new friends without delaying the important business we are doing in Dalaran. "

   After Dean Lanyue finished speaking, everyone around looked at Black silently. Obviously, everyone had appointed the most "inexperienced" guy among all the tutors in the academy to go there on their behalf.

   "My identity is special, Dean, and I'm not suitable for a big fanfare."

  Black didn't really care.

   He shrugged and declined:

   "However, my junior girl, Xiao Xingxing, is suitable for attending the ceremony as an envoy of the academy, regardless of her family background, her knowledge of magic theory, and her status in the academy.

   I can serve as her deputy and companion. "

"it is good."

   Dean Lanyue nodded and said kindly:

   "My disciple Xiao Xingxing's character is a bit eccentric. She can't handle the general affairs of the envoy. You still need to preside over this aspect."

   "There's nothing to worry about, Dean, do you really think we're going to the wedding?"

   Black grinned and said:

   "There was a big event last night, which made the old kings jump. They have no intention of attending the wedding now. It is estimated that they are eager to start the king's meeting in Lordaeron.

   Poor Princess Calia's big day was destined to be upstaged by the bald old man.

   However, this is not a bad thing for her.

   In addition, Dean, when you stay in Dalaran happily participating in debates steeped in magical truth, don't forget to be on guard. It is estimated that the city will not be peaceful these days.

  If something happens, I will come back as soon as possible. "

   Dean Lanyue nodded, Blake has been emphasizing this, she also thinks it is necessary, and prepared a plan according to the disciple's instructions.

   A few minutes later, when Little Xingxing changed into a beautiful long dress, she came out with a lady's bag in high spirits, and the smelly pirate disguised with the Orb of Deception left the Mage Tower with her.

   "Miss, please!"

  Blake, disguised as a black-haired gentleman, pushed open the door for Little Star with a lady's wide-brimmed hat. The latter didn't know where he learned it.

   They had planned to go directly to Lordaeron through the portal in Dalaran, but just after they left the Mage Tower, a convoy of three carriages stopped in front of Black and Little Star.

"boarding!"

   Saidan Dasuohan, who was sitting in front of the carriage as a groom, grabbed the reins and pouted at Black.

  The pirate shrugged and didn't resist. He reached out and took out a silver coin from his pocket, threw it to the "driver" as a tip, and then opened the door and sat in.

   Saidan Great Knight stared at the silver coin in his hand with twitching eyes.

   deliberately threw this thing in the face of the smelly pirate, but finally put it away silently. For followers of the Light, waste is a terrible sin.

  The stupid little Xingxing also wanted to follow, but was stopped by the big knight.

   The latter said softly:

   "Your Excellency the little princess is still in the second car, don't disturb your senior's important meeting."

   "Hey, hey?"

   Little Xingxing said suspiciously and dissatisfiedly:

   "Is it the captain's old lover? Why is it so secretive that no one can see it?"

   Saidan had also seen Little Xingxing in Northrend. He knew the character of Miss Blue Dragon, so he was not surprised, just shook his head and pulled his hood down again.

  Little Xingxing, while complaining, carried the beautiful bag that the girl from Yue County gave him before and got on the second carriage, but found that someone was already in the carriage.

   "Hey! Little Anna and Little Nasty!"

  Xiaoxing looked at the beautifully dressed Jaina Proudmoore in the carriage in surprise, and the latter also looked at her in surprise.

   The two girls cheered and hugged each other.

   And Arthas, whom she called "little nerd", was naturally not happy.

   No one will be happy to be called a douchebag.

  The most important thing is that he originally planned to take this opportunity of "rubbing the car" to chat with Jaina.

   Now it's also in the soup.

   "Dad that nasty **** asked me to represent him at Sister Calia's wedding. He went to the King's Council himself."

When the    carriage began to move, little Jaina complained to her new friend in a low voice angrily:

   "Little Xingxing, I have encountered a crisis in my life, and I suddenly have a sister. Yesterday, my father took me to Aunt Jinjian's mage tower and had dinner with her.

  So I saw her before, in Dalaran.

   At the time, I thought she was very dashing, but now everyone is sitting together and it’s embarrassing. "

   "You should go to the car in front and tell the captain, he may have the mind to enlighten you, maybe he is interested, and he will teach you some hellish dark wisdom and so on.

   In other words, you humans are too busy!

   I didn't suddenly have a grandfather and a bunch of uncles and aunts, but do you see what I'm complaining about? "

  Xiaoxing complained in her heart, but she still played the image of a gentle big sister on the surface, sharing her insights with Gianna in a soft voice.

   She wasn't just talking nonsense.

  Because of the experience of suddenly joining the Blue Dragon Army, what Xiao Xingxing said is quite in line with Jaina's tangled mentality. The more they talked, the more speculative they became, completely putting little Alsace aside.

   Let the little prince not mention how depressed he is.

The convoy of three black carriages was very low-key in the city, but as soon as they left the city and drove into the Silverpine Forest, nearly a hundred well-trained paladins in plate armor and white cloaks gathered to serve as guard.

   is headed by the great knight Turalyon.

   Saidan was the driver and Turalyon was the guard. There are also members of the team with such simple backgrounds as Jaina and Alsace. It is no longer necessary to say who the owner of this carriage is.

   "I thought Lothar would be here too, after all, I just gave him some 'little trouble'."

   In the swaying carriage, Blake looked at Pope Fao, who was wearing a priest's robe, holding a scripture in his hand, and a priest's holy staff by his leg. He was very energetic and very gentle.

   He said in an appreciative tone:

   "As expected of Lothar, he has the style of a general, so he can really hold his breath."

   "Your Excellency the Marshal, who has the style of a general in your mouth, will be sharpening his sword on the third carriage."

   The Pope slowly closed the scroll in his hand, glanced at Blake with a smile, and said:

   "After meeting with that brave knight in Alterac this morning, he almost picked up his sword and came to you to reason with him. It was I who persuaded him to be patient.

  I told him that when dealing with a treacherous person like you, you must be fully prepared in advance.

You too.

  You still need to be careful when you meet him, he is an old and strong warrior, anger is his strength, and what you do makes him very angry. "

   "It seems that I have to thank Your Majesty for saving my life."

  The pirate didn't care, he laughed and said:

   "But I think Your Majesty made a detour around Dalaran to invite me to go with you, so he must have something to say to me? We are all old acquaintances who serve the Holy Light, so don't be polite.

   Say whatever you want. "

   "After you passed on Da Suohan's request to the Holy Light Church to help you in northern Xinjiang, I have a lot to say to you and a lot of questions to ask. I hope you are prepared."

   The Pope's expression became serious, and he emphasized:

   "After all, what the Holy Light bestows is to maintain order, not to destroy it. In my opinion, every cooperation with you needs to be cautious. What happened in Alterac last night has strengthened my thoughts."

   Hearing this was not a friendly remark, Blake not only did not refute, but nodded in agreement, he said:

   "It's a very sensible judgment, and if I were in your position, I would do the same. Working with people like me really requires caution and caution.

  Because it takes at least a day and a half to travel from Dalaran to the Royal City of Lordaeron, we still have enough opportunities to 'deepen mutual trust'.

  My junior sister and I are just 'rubbing' a car, just drop us off in the King City of Dalaran.

  Let's not go to the palace first. "

  Blake leaned on the comfortable seat of the carriage and spoke to the Pope in a relaxed tone.

   Fao shook his head and said:

   "Then I'm sorry to tell you that you may have rubbed the wrong car, Blake.

  At the request of House Menethil and House Prestor, I will first go to Lordaene Abbey to pray for the union of Princess Calia and Lord Davar, and to pray for the blessing of the Holy Light for them.

   Grand Knight Mograine also warmly invited us to live in his territory.

  Lothar will go with me. "

   "Oh? Are you going to the Holy Land of Light in the Grand Duchy of Mograine?"

   The pirates who were originally lacking in interest immediately became interested, and he said with bright eyes:

   "Well, Your Majesty the Pope, as you know, although I walk in darkness, I have always admired the Holy Light.

   I didn't have the opportunity or time to go to the Light's Hope Chapel in Stratholme, or to the Northshire Abbey in the Kingdom of Stormwind to admire the majesty of the Holy Light.

   This time I was in the right car at the right place at the right time, and it was taking me to the right destination!

   This is how the Holy Light enlightens me, Your Majesty.

   I have an unkind request!

  I hope to temporarily follow you as a Templar Assassin and make a pilgrimage to Lordain Monastery, one of the three holy places, and hope that the holy light can shine into my dark and deep soul.

   This is probably the best compliment I can get for working to discredit the Holy Light in the dark. "

  Black said a lot to His Holiness the Pope in a sincere and neurotic tone. Judging from his "sincere" appearance, if His Holiness the Pope wanted to baptize him with the Holy Light now, Black would choose to accept it without hesitation.

   In the face of this disgusting statement, even the old Pope, who was so gentle, had a strange expression at this moment.

   After a few seconds of silence, he said:

   "I always think you're uneasy, Blake. That's probably not what a cleric should say, but you do have a strange dark air about you, as anyone who's seen you will say.

  You are the kind of special being who shows you want to do bad things even if you want to do good things.

  I don't think a visit to the Holy Land will let the Light shine on your dark heart, but it's okay to try. If you hate politics too, then I can allow you to walk with us. "

   "Politics? Vomit"

  Blake made a retching motion and said:

   "That stuff gave me a bad appetite, indigestion, and nightmares. Listening to a group of old foxes discussing how to deal with a bald veteran? Or learning valuable life lessons from an elder?

   Is this still a choice?

   Your Holiness, of course I will walk with you.

   And I will take the initiative to kill any **** who maliciously approaches you. I will always be a Templar Assassin you can trust, and a war rabid dog recruited by the Holy Light in the dark.

   As long as you give an order, my fleet and I will tear apart all enemies for the church.

   Of course, no matter how loyal a dog is, it also needs the reward of meat and bones.

   Hope you understand this. "
