"Captain, please explain to me why this thing appears in the hands of a group of hunters?" Varian asked the longbow on the table in front of the captain.
The captain said ugly: "His Royal Highness, there is no sign on it, it should not be the longbow of the army."
Varian looked at the captain with a sneer and said, "Do you think my father does not wear a crown, I can't recognize him?"
"No, His Royal Highness," the captain whispered.
"That's not clear to me yet," Varian said coldly, "Why does this bow appear in the hands of the hunter!"
"I think that may be the case," the captain said in cold sweat. "Every time we hunted Warcraft, we would destroy the soldiers. Maybe there were bows and arrows that were lost by these hunters at that time."
Varian pointed to the bow and said, "You know, with this kind of bow, I will reward you the father and you can be convicted of murdering the prince."
When the captain heard this, he was terrified, and he knelt down and said: "His prince, I will never have the heart to assassinate the prince, otherwise I will not remind you to be careful of the hunters before you set off. I will tell the truth. Well, in fact, I'm doing some transactions with those hunters. I provide them with weapons and intelligence, and buy magic crystal cores from them at a low price to earn some extra money."
Varian looked at the captain on his knees and couldn't help thinking: the power of this money is really huge! Even under such wise governance of the father, the officials under this authority have people who seek power for personal gain. I happened to meet a case today, how many of those are not found?
Thinking of this, Varian felt extremely uneasy.
"You stand up," Varian said in a deep voice, "I have other things to do this time. I can open up your business. I only hope that you will not commit any more crimes, and will guard your country with sincerity. And the people!"
The captain repeatedly promised that Varian would no longer look at him, but returned to his barracks with Moline and Isabel.
Arriving at Varian’s barracks, Morin did not discuss the captain’s business with Varian because he felt that he was only his friend, and that this kind of official affairs could not allow private participation.
Similarly, Varian did not discuss the matter, but the three of them studied the next step together.
East Valley Barracks is close to King’s Road, and on King’s Road, go east and you can enter Zorogo.
This place is where Moline and Varian want to go.
Varian would naturally want to visit Zhuo Ruige on the ground; in addition to getting enough fire crystal nuclei here, Morin also wanted to find out about the burning plain.
Varian only considered the safety of his father's kingdom, and Morin considered the safety of the entire world.
In any case, the trip of the three people has been determined, that is to go to Zorigo.
After discussion, the three rested separately. The next day at dawn, the three of them had breakfast and replenishment, and then they came to King’s Road and went straight to Zorogo.
Soon after the three had left, a man wearing dark red leather armor and a face mask appeared in the captain's barracks.
"The mission failed?" the man asked.
The captain looked panic and said: "Yes, but I can't do it in the clear, so I fake my hands with the hunters, but who thought these hunters were so unhelpful!"
"Did the prince doubt?" the man asked.
"This is absolutely not the case," the captain said quickly. "I made a good preparation before, and then used a set of rhetoric to make the prince believe that I am just using power for personal gain."
"I hope everything you said is true," the man said. "The shadow is not by your side all the time." The man disappeared into the shadow of the room after he finished speaking.
The captain stretched his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. He prayed that the prince could really be confused.
At this time, Varian had followed Moline for less than half a day, and they saw the city walls and defensive towers at the border of Zorogo from a distance.
Varian looked at the patrol soldiers on the city wall and the defensive tower, and thought to himself: The city wall is not too strong, is this soldier too much?
They quickly reached the gap in the wall, and two guarded soldiers in blood-red armor stopped the three of them. These soldiers have not seen Prince Varian, and Varian did not report his prince status.
They just found an excuse and were released, after all, they all belong to the same kingdom.
Entering the territory of Zorogo, Morin felt a sweet smell filling the air. I don't know if this is an illusion, he feels that the land and mountains are red.
Traveling along the road, they saw a desolate image.
The land was dry and hard, and the trees only had dry branches, and even the vigorous weeds were sloping dryly, just like the listless man who lost hope.
Morin they could hardly see any animals, but they could only see the scavenger birds flying occasionally in the air.
Not far away, they saw a thin dead body on the side of the road. In this wilderness, only the scavenger bird patronized him kindly.
Of course, when these black scavengers scattered with the breath of death flew away, only the dead bones were left.
Along the way, Morin saw no fewer than ten such corpses, but they didn't even see a living person.
An invisible fear permeated the hearts of the three. It seems that death is going with them.
In the evening, Mo Lin finally found a farm and stayed there.
At this farm, there are only a couple of elderly people here. They have no food to entertain Mo Lin. The three Mo Lin had to eat their own dry food.
Varian had planned to understand the situation here with the two old men, but the two old men were like stone statues, and Varian had to give up.
Those who have no hope are all stone statues, and it is those rulers who strike them.
The three fell asleep early in this dead farm, but in the middle of the night, Morin was awakened by a slight sound of footsteps.
He and Isabel still sleep in a room that is old and cold, when the moon sprinkles a pale brilliance from the window.
auzw.com Mo Lin woke up and saw a thin, boneless figure moving towards the house in the moonlight shadow.
The sound of the footsteps was slight, but it looked like a ghost. The man's messy white hair and a dull pale puffy face were like dead bodies just recovered from the well water.
The man glanced forward slightly, while holding up a rusty, filthy, cold knife.
Morin did not dare to alarm Isabel, but just got up and made preparations, because he had seen that the man was the hostess of the farm.
Soon, the hostess came not far from the bed and slashed stiffly at the empty air.
After cutting a knife, she turned around and said to an invisible person: "Lord Lord wants to eat human flesh!"
Another cut, and then said: "Lord Lord wants to drink human blood!"
So repeatedly.
Under that moonlight, Mo Lin looked at this one-man show, but there was a burst of cold behind him.
Morin didn't know what to do, he couldn't deal with the old lady, because obviously, she was just an insane person.
However, if she is allowed to stay here in this way, and can not guarantee that there is no danger, it is really embarrassing.
Suddenly, the old woman stopped and slowly turned to Morin.
Seeing the old woman staring straight at herself, Morin suddenly laughed sharply.
The laughter was as cruel as it came from hell, miserable and ruthless. Isabel was awakened by the laughter, and at the sight of the old woman, she suddenly fell into Morin's arms.
At this moment, the old woman flew towards Moline and Isabel at a very fast speed, and the knife in her hand was cut off to Moline.
But Mo Lin was faster than her, and Mo Lin pulled out the dagger silently, but could not see where the dagger was. Morin waved his hands quickly, as if marking the old woman's neck.
The old woman's laughter came to an abrupt end, but there was still a smile on her face, as if engraved on it. Her head suddenly tilted to the side, and she rolled off her neck at once, and then a black blood burst into the moonlight.
The headless body fell stiffly, but the room was still filled with a terrifying and tense atmosphere.
Isabel also grabbed Morin's chest and wept, when Varian's screams came from outside: "What the is this place, and the people here are all neurotic!"
Then Varian stumbled into Moline's house and was startled when he saw the body on the ground. "I'm fucking, there is one in this house too!" Varian exclaimed.
Morin said: "Why, is that old man in your house?"
Varian circumvented the corpse, seeming to think that it could still rise up and attack him. He came to Morin and said, "Isn't that the old man? It's like a ghost. There is no sound at all. I cut my shoulder by him!"
While comforting Isabel, Morin said to Varian: "Wait for Belle to wait for a while and then give you treatment. She is terrified."
Varian said helplessly: "I hope she can get better before my blood runs out."
He was obviously over-considered, and Isabel was better after a while. Although the expression was still a little trance, he still managed to treat Varian's wounds.
Varian said to Morin after the wound healed:
Let’s leave here quickly, it’s too scary.
Morin said, "Where are you going to stay in the middle of the night? There are two of them here, and they are both dead. Well, should you kill that one in your house?"
Varian said: "Well, I can't deal with such an old man!"
Morin sneered and said, "Don't blow, lest the wound open again."
Varian said pitifully: "Morin, can't you let me brag about it and relieve my uncomfortable mood?"
Morin smiled and said, "Okay, I was wrong, Brother Varian. But since they are all dead, we might as well find a clean room to deal with for a night. If we leave here, we may not be safe."
Varian said sadly: "Well, what a is this place. I watched these two people as weird from the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be like this."
In the end, the three found a clean room and managed to deal with it until dawn, before setting off again.
Since everyone didn't sleep well last night, the journey was groggy.
Varian looked at the map and led Morin along the uphill road. When they came to the top of the and looked down, they saw an endless huge lake spread out.
This lake is named Shuishui Lake. On the northwestern shore of the lake, it is a lakeside town built on the lake. On a high place on the east shore of the lake, it is the fortress of Wayne Sletbro, Lord Zorigo.
Morin did not plan to visit the lord, they just wanted to settle down in the lakeside town, take some rest, and then take action.
The three men rode down the long and hurried down. They crossed a large and sturdy stone bridge until they came to the lakeside town in the afternoon.
There is no such desolate scene in the lakeside town. Because of the lakeside, people here can barely survive by the lake water.
After finally seeing the human beings still alive, Mo Lin's hearts finally settled down. The three stayed at the best hotel in Lakeside Town and continued to replenish their supplies while planning to eat a good meal.
After returning from a trip to the street, the three went to the restaurant downstairs to prepare for a meal.
There are not many people living in this hotel, and naturally there will not be many people coming to eat at this time.
The three of Mo Lin randomly found an empty table and sat down, ordered three meals and ate it. Today Moline is not eating that much anymore, but still eating faster.
He finished his meal first, and he looked at the people around him. Morin found that although these people were eating, they were all staring at themselves. When he looked at them, these talents withdrew their gazes and pretended to talk with ease.
Morin already knew that wealth and wealth would make people fall, but as a poor man, he did not know that poverty could still make people fall.
Because both of these are one reason, that is: money.
