Chapter 69: Someone Comes! Help!
"What's going on out there!"
In the King's Bedchamber, Terenus sat up from his bed, and he had a nightmare!
In the dream, he saw that the entire Lordaeron was overwhelmed by the undead, and Uther and countless paladins were killed by the knight who was wrapped in the breath of death, and even he was killed by that knight!
And at the last moment, he saw the knight's face clearly.
It turned out to be Arthas, his son!
Then he was awakened by a commotion.
"What about people? What a mess? Who's coming? Terenus forced himself to pull himself together, feeling exhausted.
He was old, almost sixty.
After many years of state work, he could not bear it, and as early as a few years ago, he handed over the affairs of the state to Alsace. He knew that he would not live for a few years, so he wanted to live a quiet life for a few years, and then die quietly in the crowd, and his proudest son, Arthas, the pride of Lordaeron, would be crowned king!
However, the appearance of the undead catastrophe broke everything!
He was so busy that he didn't sleep well for more than a month, and his spirit was getting worse and worse.
And everything Alsace did, slaughtering the city, leading all the fleets to Northrend without authorization, putting the affairs of the country back on him, he felt that his energy was low, his life was seriously overdrawn, and he had to live two or three years less, to say the least!
Know your own physical condition. He knew that he wouldn't live long, maybe this year or maybe next year, and he wouldn't be able to survive anymore.
He shuddered at the thought of the dream he had just had.
He remembered that more than a month ago, a mysterious prophet wearing a black-feathered cloak who could transform into a blood crow described to him the apocalyptic scene, and that dream was exactly the same as the mysterious prophet's description!
He asked the court mage, but the high-ranking mage didn't even notice the existence of the mysterious prophet in the slightest! What does this mean?
That mysterious prophet turned out to be an unimaginably terrifying being, perhaps a legendary mage above everyone, an existence like Antonidas!
He once disagreed with such a person's remarks, but now he felt in a trance that maybe ...... Does it really make sense? At least he accurately predicted the appearance of the undead scourge!
"No, no, never! Dreams are dreams, not real! My son...... How could it possibly kill me? Ruining an entire kingdom? Terenus shook his head in a panic, then shouted again, "Who's out there?" ”
"It's Count Mordred, Your Majesty. He also brought with him several men, both mages and knights of the kingdom, who asked to meet you immediately. A court maid hurriedly reported.
"Mordred? Wasn't his fief near Andorhar? How did he get here? Let him in. Terenus reluctantly got out of bed and put on his clothes under the service of the maid.
The door opened, and a noble man in his forties walked in.
"Your Majesty, the whole of Lordaeron is in chaos! The Knights of the Silver Hand rebelled and captured many nobles! I've heard that I got an order from Princess Kalia! Mordred shouted, waving her arms exaggeratedly, with an angry face: "What is the Duke of Kalia going to do?" She captured at least 50 nobles! Is he going to wipe out all the nobles of Lordaeron! ”
"What? Kalia? Who gave her the right to transfer troops? Terrenus was amazed and hurriedly shouted, "Someone! Let Kalia come and see me! ”
"Your Majesty, you don't seem to look good? Would you like to take a good rest? Sorry to bother you so late. Mordred looked concerned, and then stepped closer.
"Mordred, I'm fine...... What are you doing? ”
Suddenly, a dagger appeared in Mordred's hand, and he stabbed it at King Terenus with precision!
Terenus used to be a powerful high-level warrior, but now he is old and frail, and he has long since lost his bravery, so he has no time to react, plus the distance between the two of them is too close, and Mordred himself is a well-known warrior, so the next moment, the dagger will stab Terenus's body!
A sneer already appeared on Mordred's face!
However, at this moment, suddenly a dagger appeared from the darkness and blocked his dagger, and the quenching dagger only cut through a little bit of skin. Then another dagger pierced the darkness and stabbed him in the throat!
However, at the critical moment, a spell barrier appeared in front of him, protecting him, no matter how sharp the dagger was, it could not be pierced!
It's a mage who has made a move!
He is a mage brought by Count Mordred, a powerful high-ranking mage.
In order to gain financial support, many mages choose to serve wealthy nobles, and Count Mordred is a nobleman with deep pockets, and this high-ranking mage is at his service.
But now, he is no longer an ordinary high-level mage, but a high-level psychic of the Cursed Sect!
Similarly, the others brought by Count Mordred were also members of the Cursed Sect!
Jiang Zheng's figure emerged from the darkness, holding the widowmaker and the broken intestine in his hand, standing between King Terenus and Count Mordred, and his heart sank.
Count Mordred, the highest ranking of the cult of the Cursed in Lordaeron City!
Unexpectedly, he was not caught by Fenna's people and ran here.
This is in trouble!
According to the information, Count Mordred himself is a high-level warrior, and behind him, there is also a high-level mage, two high-level warriors, and a high-level thief hiding in the dark!
All members of the Cult of the Damned!
It is impossible for Jiang Zheng to deal with so many people, and even, any of these people are stronger than him! In this case, it is impossible for Terenus to survive, and even if he himself is not safe!
"Someone! There are assassins! Terenus took a few steps back, picked up his sword, and drew his sword!
"Mordred! What do you want! Terenus forced himself to cheer up, but he really ran out of energy, although he still had the majesty and momentum of a king, but in fact he was no longer able to do it, and he was dying of old age, maybe even an ordinary mid-level warrior could not defeat him.
"Hehe, Terenus, I could kill you ten times before your palace guards arrived! As for this unexpected little thief, I'm afraid I can only bury you with you! Mordred shouted, "Kill him!" ”
The next moment, the mage began to chant the incantation, the thieves were rapidly approaching, and the warriors began to charge!
"No way!"
Jiang Zai gritted his teeth.
Together, he and Lilian hidden in the darkness may not be the opponent of a high-level thief, not to mention that he is now facing five high-level professionals!
"Next!" Jiang Zheng suddenly took off the elemental necklace around his neck, and then threw it to King Terenus, and the next moment he entered a stealth state and hid in a corner.
