Azeroth Trail of Light

Chapter 572 17. Chaotic Northern Kingdom

In the 20 years since the Dark Gate, the fallen Lordaeron prince Arthas set off a natural disaster that shocked the whole world in his own country. Lordaeron, the most powerful of the seven human kingdoms, came to an On the verge of extinction, even the magic kingdom of Dalaran experienced an extinction.

At the time of the craziest undead disaster, two-thirds of the entire vast northern border had fallen, but the remaining citizens of Lordaeron, under their leader, Kalia Menethil, a descendant of the Menethil royal family, Under the leadership of the leadership, they have never succumbed to the terrible darkness. After five long years, they finally removed the deep darkness from this ancient land, and the ancient country of Lordaeron once again glowed on its former site Revealed a new luster.

But not all northern kingdoms were as lucky as Lordaeron.

Leaving aside Dalaran, the Dalaran Great Plains where this miniature country is located has been completely destroyed, except for the Dalaran city that is currently suspended in the Northrend continent and formed by researching magic nets over Crystalsong Forest. , the country is dead in name only, but the other country bordering it is not much better.

Gilneas, the country that chose to use a solid wall to completely separate itself from the outside world during the plague of the undead, is one of the only remaining three kingdoms in the Human Seven Kingdoms Alliance, and is called by the citizens of the rebuilt Kingdom of Lordaeron The traitor Northland country was the only country that did not participate in the counterattack against the undead natural disasters on the entire continent, and the country that chose to be alone has also reached the brink of extinction.

The rulers of this country once thought they had made the right choice, but after 6 years, it seems that they have not escaped the threat of annihilation of the country, but the threat did not come from the undead disaster but from another kind Tougher and more dangerous creatures than the undead.

The Greymane Wall built by King Genn Greymane blocked the attack of the undead, but it also completely sealed off the people of Gilneas on this unknown and violent land where the plague was rampant. After the control of the wall was taken away, the whole of Gilneas has completely become a blocked country. Before the three forces come to a conclusion, no one can leave here, this land that has gradually been shrouded in despair.

A black shadow flashed across the sky of Gilneas City in the rainy night. In this kind of weather where there would be no city guards to patrol, some creatures that had long been known to the city residents also began to act unscrupulously.

But in those sturdy mansions, daily life continued. In the room warmed by the fireplace, Miss Rhona was holding a book and studying carefully. This beautiful lady with black hair On the edge, there is a small red flower for decoration, which makes her look delicate, and it can be seen from the gorgeous pajamas and complicated pendants that only noble ladies would wear on her body. Come out, this pretty lady is a nobleman.

Well, a great nobleman in various senses, Rhona Crowley, the only daughter of Darius Crowley, the great lord of the Northern Territory of Gilneas, will inevitably inherit Darius' duke position in the future. The real ruling class in Nice, but 2 years ago, after Lord Darius set off the North Gate Mutiny and failed, and then disappeared, Miss Rhona's position in the whole of Gilneas became delicate.

Among the nobles, there is rarely a real life-and-death situation, and after the mutiny at the North Gate, King Jean publicly stated more than once that he would not hold Rona accountable. After all, it was her father's willful rebellion. Miss Rona didn't know about it at all, which is of course more important. The reason is that Rona, who grew up with Prince Liam, is almost the same as his own daughter in the eyes of King Jinn.

But the rebellion has happened after all, so from 2 years ago to the present, the Crowley Manor in the church district of Gilneas has also changed from a crowded city to a deserted one now. Although Rona is not dissatisfied with this encounter, in fact , both she and the servants in this manor know that Miss Rhona has actually been under house arrest, and this disguised house arrest has lasted for two full years.

The raindrops slapping the windows, coupled with the occasional crackling of firewood in the fireplace, made the whole mansion so quiet that it was almost eerie. Some panicked servants returned to the room early under the order of the housekeeper. It is best not to go out alone at night. This is a lesson that people in this city have learned with their lives in the past few years.

Who are you? Don't go in! This is the Crowley family!

A burst of noise came from outside the hall, which disturbed Lorna's reading. The delicate lady closed the book in her hand and put it aside, and then heard her loyal old housekeeper let out a cry of pain. , approaching, the door of the hall was roughly pushed open.

kuang

The cold wind mixed with raindrops blew into the hall through the open door. Seeing those indifferent guys in black hunting suits stepping on the gorgeous carpet, Lorna's body shivered. The wind, or because of inner fear.

Those rude guys left wet footprints one after another on the floor stalls. They completely dismissed the luxurious decoration in the hall, but walked straight in front of Miss Rhona. The guy in the lead coughed and said in an indifferent tone whispered to Lorna in front of her,

Miss Rhona Crowley, come with us!

Who are you? The inner court knight? Or... the assassin who came to kill me?

The delicate noble lady did not let these guys of unknown origin be at the mercy of these guys. She asked loudly, The title of the Crowley family has not been abolished yet! Who gave you the courage to break in here? You also injured my housekeeper !

But her questioning paired with her pajamas really didn't have the slightest deterrent effect. The man in black standing in front of her pondered for a moment, and a sneer grinned at the corner of his mouth.

Don't try to attract the attention of your servants, Miss Rhona, and don't force us to use violence. As for who we are, you can think that we are inner court knights or assassins, it depends on your choice!

Rona seemed irritated by this threat, she took two steps back and stood in front of the fireplace with an angry expression on her delicate face, Enough! I don't know about my father's mutiny, it's been 2 years , why can't you let me, the poor prisoner, be spared? The territory of the Crowley family has been divided into two, we have lost Subchel and Silverpine Forest, and the remaining half has also been lost by the bloodfang werewolf Complete occupation, even if it is like this, do you still want to torture me, a poor man who has no power to restrain me?

I have nothing! What else do you want from me?

At the end, Miss Rhona probably remembered the tragic experience of her family, and her voice was filled with grief and indignation, but this expression did not bring her even the slightest preferential treatment, and those indifferent men in black scattered before her eyes. Forming a circle, blocking her tightly, the gloomy middle-aged man at the head stretched his fingers, and lowered his deep voice again.

Okay, Miss Rhona, everything your father did is your own fault, but we didn't come to listen to you talking about these meaningless things, you go with us yourself, or should I take you away?

hoo hoo

Miss Rona's face turned pale, she took a few breaths, and finally seemed to give up resistance completely, she lowered her head, looked at the constantly flickering flames under her feet, and her voice became weaker,

I just have one question, tell me and I'll go with you!

explain!

Uncle Jean has promised that he will not continue to pursue the Crowley family's responsibilities. I believe him, so you must not be Greymane's inner court knights.

Hearing this question, the gloomy middle-aged man froze for a moment, then let out a mocking laugh,

Sure enough, you are a pampered noble lady. At this time, you are still concerned about such meaningless issues, but if this can make you make up your mind. We are not inner court knights, and we do not belong to the great His Majesty Jean. Management, in fact, from a personal point of view, I admire the choice of Lord Darius, the reason for his failure is that he still has a little illusion about the royal family, but we will not!

The middle-aged man probably felt that the scene in front of him was a surefire win, so he was not hesitant to tell the delicate noble lady in front of him his purpose, Miss Rhona, frankly speaking, you really don't have the slightest bit to avenge your father. What do you think? But you are under house arrest by the hypocritical Jean, come with me, raise the banner of revenge in your father's name, and those warriors who are still loyal to the Crowley family will really see hope!

But he didn't see any hope or fear that he wanted to see from Miss Rhona's raised face. On the contrary, all the fear and anger on that delicate face had been wiped clean, replaced by a look of Thoughtful, it looks like a little fox who has found the real secret.

Oh, so, you're a third party in this damn city? Let me guess, Godfrey, right?

This question made the middle-aged man realize that something was wrong, he immediately rushed towards Lorna who was less than 2 meters in front of him, and the entourage he brought also took out a weapon from his pocket, but the next moment, more than a dozen shots came from The swift black shadows jumping down from the hall surrounded them all around, and Miss Lorna dodged the attack of the middle-aged man with the agility that didn't fit the posture of a noble lady at all. The cold light bloomed from her palm.

An exquisitely decorated bayonet sword, judging from its sharp blade, this thing is not an ornament.

ah!

The middle-aged man smashed to the ground with his arm that had been pierced by the sharp blade. He looked desperately at the dozen or so monsters in black leather armor who were full of manes and had a ferocious wolf head. The monster had already torn the entourage it had brought into pieces at this moment, and these poor young people couldn't even make a sound of wailing.

The gorgeous carpet has been completely stained red by the blood of stumps, and the scene in front of him is like a real slaughterhouse, disgusting and frightening.

And the delicate noble girl flicked the stabbing sword in her hand, and threw the blood on it on the carpet that became more red because of the blood stains. She looked at the middle-aged man indifferently, as if she was not afraid of the current picture at all. It was a killing field like hell, and when those werewolves who had finished their murder stood respectfully behind this noble lady in pajamas, the middle-aged man immediately realized that he had made a fatal mistake!

He underestimated the power of the Crowley family too much. In other words, Rona Crowley, the noble lady who has been under house arrest for two years, must still have some kind of connection with her father who has disappeared, and it is said that the Lord Darius Crowley, who died on the battlefield, when the middle-aged man saw those werewolves wearing exquisite leather armor and metal claws on their claws, who were violent but rational, He already knew that things got more complicated.

In other words, things have never been easy. Both he and the conspirators behind him have been deceived!

Miss, the old master has issued an order, you must leave Gilneas City with us immediately this time!

A tall werewolf wearing a black eyepatch lowered his head and said to Lorna, Moonfury and Bloodfang are about to go to war, and the whole of Gilneas will become a battlefield. This place is no longer safe!

Father is always like this, thinking I'm a little girl who doesn't understand anything.

Lorna flicked the rapier in her hand, and waved her hand indifferently, Gilneas City has never been safe, but I will go with you, but before I leave, I have to see an old man friend.

At this moment, Rona didn't seem to be weak at all. Her demeanor and expression were just like the High Lord Darius who dared to confront King Jean Greymane back then.

The real tiger father has no dog daughter!

Lorna turned and walked into the inner room. Before leaving, she took a pityful glance at the middle-aged man surrounded by werewolves,

Godfrey, that old fox who can only hide in the dark and calculate will not succeed. Uncle Gene is old, but he is not old enough for anyone to step forward and tear off a piece of flesh. However, when Bloodfang and Moonfury When the winner is really decided, he will also completely lose his country and everything he owns, and so will you!

Look at this country in disarray, not even a glimmer of hope in sight, so sad.

The sound of Lorna's departure is completely covered up in the bloody carnage, but we have to admit that she is right.

A small Gilneas, the land area is only one-third of Lordaeron, but it is mixed with three parties, large and small. Right now, a rebellion is about to break out in the weakest Gilneas royal family, and the two werewolf clans are about to be divided. It is hard to say who will win and who will lose, but the only thing that is certain is that after that decisive battle, this country has nothing to do with the Greymane royal family.

Sad for a king.

Does anyone remember Rhona Crowley on the shore of Daming Lake~I still can't forget that elegant female man. When we met for the first time, holding a shotgun and carrying a hound~I was very impressed~
