Moments later, Stratholme Cathedral.
Just as Gao He thought, Griffin, who was only a big soldier in this past time, and his fellow infantry Maxwell, who dreamed of being a field marshal, and the Redpass family, who Gao He feared the most, all survived the previous massacre by arriving at Stratholme Cathedral in time.
"You guys leave Stratholme now...... The sooner the better, the city is no longer a good place to stay. β
Now, while Gianna was talking to the kind-faced lord on the other side, Takawa whispered to them.
Although the city is no longer in danger, the plague will continue to spread here until the city is completely destroyed by the undead Scourge and Arthas, who became a Death Knight.
"Thank you so much this time...... Sir. β
If before, the three soldiers, including Joseph, were still skeptical of Gao He's words, but now that the dark sky is still shrouded and the horrific massacre has ended, they have completely believed Gao He's words.
"Uncle...... Aren't you going to leave with Pamela and the rest of you? β
Before leaving, little Pamela was still reluctantly beckoning to Gao He - compared with adults, this little Lori seemed to have "known" Gao He from the beginning, which also made Gao He's heart even more sentimental.
"Joseph, no matter what...... Take care of little Pamela and don't leave her alone. β
Although Gao He's words are somewhat inexplicable, Joseph? Redpass nodded, then hugged his daughter and led the family out of the side door where the fence had been opened.
"I, Griffin, owe you my life, sir, and no matter what tasks I have in the future, as long as you give me an order, sir, I will definitely carry it out without even letting out a fart - provided that you and I are still alive at that time, sir."
Compared with the thanks of the Joseph family, Griffin has already shown a little of his spirit as the leader of the People's Army in the Foggy Plains...... Of course, this guy still speaks so rudely.
"Rest assured, by then, you and I will be alive......"
After negating this guy's crow's beak with future facts, Gao He suddenly remembered one more thing and stopped the big guy who was already about to leave.
"Besides, if it's okay, it's better not to go to a dangerous place like Red Devil Mountain."
"Red Devil Mountain?"
Griffin scratched his head in confusion, but before he could understand, on the other side, Gianna was already calling Gao He's name.
"What a strange sir...... But...... Maxwell, this time we seem to be being dispatched to a station that is there, right? β
Although Gao He has done his best, however, in response to the words of "the wheel of history rolling forward", in the long river of time, some things ...... Sure enough, it still can't be changed.
Putting aside the "bright future" that Griffin may have become colorful because of this, Gao He, who was called by Gianna, is facing a difficult choice that he has to make at this time.
"There's no way around it...... The fluctuations of the space-time rift seem to have become violent, and if you don't get rid of it, ......"
Previously, the senior sister had been helping to take care of the unconscious Terran girl, but after arriving at the Cathedral of Stratholme, because a priest with a full-time treatment took over, the senior sister took on the responsibility of conveying the message.
Just now, the task of repairing the space-time rift has been completed, which means that they must leave this space-time rift as much as possible.
Well, in fact, if you investigate it a little more seriously, this time, what they entered should be a distorted node called "space-time wormhole" that is even larger than the space-time rift.
This also confirms the previous Queen of the Dead? Nozomi's words and the anomaly that Gao He perceived, after all, in this past, the qiΔ they experienced was too real, and even gave people a false illusion.
Now, when the senior sister once again conveyed the urging from You, Gao He still had a thorny problem that had not been solved.
A girl in a coma, the queen of the dead in the past, Nozomi? Hope...... What the hell is going to do about it?
"That...... Miss Gianna, there is something I don't know if I can ask you for. β
After thinking about it, there seems to be only one way left, even if Xi? Xi made a little awkward over there, and Gao He could only try his best to appease.
It's just that when Gao He asked Gianna to help take care of the unconscious girl in the next period of time, Gianna's face showed an embarrassed expression.
"I'm sorry...... Like you, I will leave the city as much as I can, and the most important thing for me now is to stop him...... Stop the more crazy behavior of Alsace. β
Although Gao He already had a premonition for such an answer, it was ......
"I'm sorry, honorable paladin, Miss Gianna, and I beg your pardon for interjecting ......"
At this moment, the lord of the city, Baron Rivendell, who had been communicating with the rest of the frightened townspeople, had arrived at them.
It was the first time Gao He had seen this baronial lord - this was a middle-aged man with a kind face, with the calmness that most of the Terran nobles had, but also had an affinity that most nobles did not have.
Prior to this, Gao He had witnessed his comfort and sympathy to the townspeople under his rule, and he still had a little affection for this lucky lord who had escaped the massacre by luck because he was out hunting.
The only thing that made him feel a little uncomfortable was ...... The mayor of Barthras, somehow survived the massacre, was now nodding behind Baron Rivendell.
ββ¦β¦ Your Excellency, please speak. β
Putting aside the superfluous thoughts, Gao He bowed slightly, and motioned to the baron to speak bluntly.
"Although Stratholm ...... This once-thriving city has been shattered by this tragedy, but believe me, I will not let my people suffer a second time! β
When he said this, Rivendell straightened his waist, which was slightly bent because he was middle-aged, and also slightly showed an indomitable momentum.
"Therefore, this girl, who is also a citizen of my Stratholme, I will also send someone to take care of her, and I will never let her suffer any more harm!"
Not...... It seems that this is the only way to go.
In the case of being in a hurry to leave, as the lord of Baron Rivendell has to take responsibility, Gao He naturally will not refuse his kindness, after glancing at Gianna and getting her gentle nod, Gao He solemnly and officially entrusted the unconscious girl to the baron lord.
"Be sure to take care of her......"
"Rest assured, Paladin, I pledge to you in the dual name of the Baron of the Kingdom and the Lord of Stratholme.
For a royal nobleman, this is already a very solemn oath, and Gianna next vouched for the baron.
"Baron Rivendell has always had a good reputation among the nobles of the Lolita Kingdom, and, if I have time, I will come to visit this girl."
"In that case......
Gao He nodded to Gianna, then turned and walked towards the door of Stratholme Cathedral.
Paladin Abu ......
Behind him, Gianna's low voice was heard.
ββ¦β¦ I'll see you again, right? β
"Ah...... Maybe there's a chance to meet again. β
Gao He didn't look back, and stepped directly out of the door of the church.
Although the catastrophe of Stratholme has only just begun, it is already time for Gao and the team to leave.
The source of this series of space-time distortions all came from the Alsace princes in the past, and now, when Arthas has left Stratholme, this last space-time wormhole has finally calmed down and is about to be restored to its original state.
When Gao He came to the Elder Square not far from Stratholme Cathedral to meet his teammates, unexpectedly, he saw the playful Chromie who transformed into a little Lori here.
"See you again...... Strange, aren't you happy to see people again? β
The small dwarf girl circled around Gao He a few times, and then raised her head curiously and stood on tiptoe, trying to see the expression on his face clearly.
"Get down to business!"
Facing this bronze dragon who is already the boss and pretending to be loli, Gao He is really a little powerless.
Although Chromie may still be a little girl in terms of the Bronze Dragon's near-eternal life, she may have been around longer than the five members of the squad and the Queen of the Dead.
"What about people...... Of course, I'm here to check the repair of the space-time wormhole, and by the way, I'm here to take you out of this time. β
Chromie held his chin in his small hand in a serious manner, and then pointed to the shiny passage behind him that had quietly appeared at some point.
"Just get in here and you're back in Stratholme 'now'! Before you go out, please check if your belongings are lost or lost......"
"Wait......"
Just when Chromie was about to be the first to lead through the space-time tunnel and return to the "now", Gao He couldn't help but open his mouth and stopped the "little dragon" who had no abnormality at all.
"Chromie said it before...... The past won't be changed, right? β
"Yes...... What's the problem? β
The dwarf little Lori's grown eyes blinked, and she looked at Gao He suspiciously.
"But...... In this time and space, there is obviously a person's fate that has been changed......"
"Huh? Is there such a thing? β
Little Chromie turned his head sideways, and after a few wrinkles in his little nose, he looked back at Gao He seriously.
"According to my detection, there are no anomalies at all in this period of time - your repair work is thorough, and all events have been directed to the right track!"
This is...... What do you mean?
Gao He really couldn't continue to sell with Chromie, so he simply pulled the undead queen Xi next to him? Hope.
She ...... Shouldn't he have been killed by the Prince of Arthas with a sword at this time? But now...... She's still alive and well in Stratholme Cathedral! β
"Really...... Isn't that ......?"
Chromie's face suddenly showed an unprecedented solemn expression.
She waved her hand, and another prism suddenly appeared beside her, and a shining sight appeared on itβ
"Lord Baron...... What the hell are we going to do with her?'
"Although the combat effectiveness shown in the trial work is far beyond my imagination, it ...... Lord Kel'thugad has said that we must not be allowed to expose our ongoing human modification program against the Dreadlord and the Incineration Legion prematurely, and as for this girl......
Burst!
What unfolded in front of Gao He was a scene that he could never imagine.
Right in front of his eyes, Baron Rivendell, who had sworn to take care of the girl in the name of the nobleman, stabbed a long sword engraved with strange magic patterns in his hand into the girl's heart.
"How...... How could it be ......"
Gao He looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, bit his lip, and was completely speechless.
The girl's blood was devoured by the strange long sword, and in the end, when the girl's skin became unprecedented white and completely lifeless, the long sword was also dyed with a strange dark red, and the magic patterns on it were even more brilliant because of the energy hidden in the girl's body.
"She has already been noticed by Marganis, so she must not be left to remain in this world......
After completing this qiΔ, the sanctimonious Baron Rivendell once again put a kind smile on his face and looked at the trembling Mayor of Barthras.
γβ¦β¦ And, of course, the townspeople in this Stotherom Cathedral...... Some of them may have seen the prototype as well...... Go, find a way to get rid of them all, and ...... Lay the blame on the head of that foolish prince.'"
"Yes...... Yes...... Lord Baron Rivendell......
"Click!"
The prism that Chromie had released shattered.
Right next to Gao He, the surface of the undead queen's body had risen from an unprecedented huge undead aura.
"Rivendell...... It's ...... him."
In the midst of the undead aura that was so huge that it was almost uncontrollable, Gao He clearly felt the hatred of Her Majesty the Queen XiΓ that had never been seen beforeβthat kind of hatred that was even more intense than he had ever felt in Alsace before!
And in fact, today, the people who are angry and hateful are not just Xi? Nozomi one.
"We ...... What are you waiting for here? β
Clenching the long sword in his hand, Gao He looked at Chromie, who had been on the side for a long time.
"Now...... You can go back. β
That's right, it's time to get back to the present.
And then...... All that remains is to find the baronial lord who is still in his domain......
...... well Do the math!
(p.s: About Baron Rivendell...... There used to be a beautiful legend that this was a paladin who fought valiantly against Alsace in order to defend his territory...... Well, I'm going to pop the fairy tale bubble again, in fact...... This thing was associated with Kel'thugad at an early age, and he provided most of the funds and venues for the Cult of the Damned, and it is likely that he had an element of the Stratholme massacre in it...... It is worth mentioning that after that massacre, the baron has been alive and well.
After a few years or more than a decade, when Arthas became a Death Knight and led the Scourge army north to the Sunwell again, Baron Rivendell finally ushered in his new life - at his request, he was transformed into a Death Knight, and from then on he was responsible for garrisoning the new military base of the Scourge Legion, the passage between Naxxramas and the ground, that is, ...... Stratholme today. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend this work as a registered member of Piao Astronomy, your support is my biggest motivation. )
