When the sun rose the next day, Marlon stood in Archbishop Alonsos? In front of Fao's cabin, he let out a chuckle as he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Marlon remembered the previous night—he had talked to Tiffany for a long time, and it was only when the girl was so sleepy that she could barely open her eyes that Marlon sent her back to the cabin of the Counts of Ellaran.

As for the content of Marlon and Tiffany's chat, from the girl telling interesting stories about the two of them playing together when they were young, to Marlon's love for Anduin? After joining the army under Lothar's arrangement, the two of them rarely met each other, and in the girl's imagination, those whimsical and chaotic ways to defeat the orcs......

Ma Long felt that in the somewhat boring study of the Holy Light, mixed with some such warm and beautiful memories, it did have the effect of combining work and rest.

However, the smile on Malone's face quickly disappeared, because the "please come in" from the cabin was not Alonsos? Fao's voice.

Marlon vigilantly pushed open the hidden hatch of the ship, and then saw a bald head - not the Alonsos he knew? Fao or his "uncle" Anduin? Lothar, but a relatively young bald head.

The plain linen robe was dyed dark gray, and the middle-aged man with a short beard sat in Alonsos? On the bed/, with a smile on his face, Fao nodded to Marlon, as if to welcome him.

"Who are you? What about Mr. Fao? ”

Malone looked around and saw that there was no one else in the cabin - which surprised and alarmed him at the same time - and that when he finished his studies last night, no one told him that his study schedule had changed for today.

"I'm Benedictas. Like you, a disciple of Fao-sensei. ”

The middle-aged man said with a smile.

However, Malone did not let his guard down because of the man's identity, because he knew the conspiracy and evil hidden behind the name.

Benedictas. As far as Malone knows, it is indeed the same as Uther, and now himself, Archbishop Alonsos? A disciple of Fao.

Uther controls the Order's most powerful army, the Knights of the Silver Hand, but Benedictas is Archbishop Alonsos? Heir to the mantle of Fao.

In Alonsos? After Fao's death, Benedictas became the leader of the Church of Light on the continent; Until then, he had played a leading role in the rebuilding of Stormwind; Without his guidance. Whether it's young Varian? Wrynn, who is still a confused refugee from Stormwind, will lose the courage to persevere in the face of many difficulties.

But Benedictas's true identity is terrifying—he is not the embodiment of justice as he appears. On the contrary, he is actually the minions of evil in the world.

Malone knew that in the distant future, this kind-looking Benedictas would be involved in the assassination of Varian? Urion and Thrall and try to pave the way for the return of those ancient and evil Elder Gods.

In Marlon's heart. This Benedictas is definitely the guy he needs to watch out for, and even doesn't hesitate to take out first.

"Malone. What happened to you? Are you worried about Mr. Fao? …… By the way, this is indeed my negligence, and I should have explained it first...... Mr. Fao left early in the morning, and during the night several endangered refugees appeared and needed to be treated by Mr. Fao himself. Therefore, I will complete your lesson today in place of Mr. Fao. Can we get started? ”

Benedictas sensed obvious hostility from Malone's attitude towards him, and he thought it was his delusion at one point. But......

Although he didn't understand why this was the case, Benedictas decided to forgive the young man in front of him - he had heard about Malone's deeds. I also admire this young but already dead in the fight with the orcs - many nobles are only jealous at their age, but Malone has become a hero.

Malone didn't answer, just nodded silently, and went to Benedictas's side—he felt a little lost, and didn't know what he should do—he knew that the man in front of him would be a villain in the future, but ...... Who will believe their own claims?

"Very well, I heard from Mr. Fao that you have made rapid progress, far beyond the level of me and Uther...... I also believe that your future is limitless, but let's see how much you have mastered the sacred arts that Master Fao taught you yesterday...... Malone, are you listening to me? ”

Benedictas whispered encouragement to the young man in front of him, but he soon noticed that the other man didn't seem to pay much attention to his words, and his eyes wandered, not knowing what he was thinking; So he frowned and raised his voice slightly.

Malone had been staring at Benedictas since he sat down, his gaze slicing over the other's bland clothes, beard, and face, and finally resting on Benedictas's neck.

Marlon knew he was strong enough that his body inherited Anduin? the burly of the other members of the Lothar family; He wondered if he could easily break Benedictas's neck at such a close distance, so that the guy who would become the spokesman of the Old Gods on the road would have no future to speak of.

But Malone couldn't make up his mind in the end - maybe he would do it if he could kill Benedictas without knowing it, but ......

Now in Alonsos? In Fao's cabin - even if he could successfully kill his opponent, it would be impossible to destroy his corpse - none of the sacred arts that Malone had learned had anything to do with killing and destroying corpses.

Benedictas's voice reached Marlon's ears, and he raised his head in some panic, just in time to meet the other party's gaze.

Malone was a little stunned—Benedictas's gaze was clear and warm, as if the light itself; This "future villain" calmly looked at him, his expression was as peaceful as ever, but Malone took the lead and couldn't bear the faint consideration in the other party's gaze and looked away.

"I admit that Mr. Fao is very good at teaching, but he seems to have overlooked something...... Marlon, can you tell me what is the confusion in your heart that makes you so restless? ”

Benedictas looked at Malone who was a little flustered and asked calmly.

"I ......"

Malone stammered, speechless - he couldn't just ask Benedictas if he had heard of the Elder Gods, could he?

"Teacher Fao taught me a lot."

Malone said after deliberation.

"It's the same for me...... Without the teachings of Master Fao, I would not have embarked on the path of pursuing the Light. ”

Benedictas nodded and echoed - Malone was surprised to see that at the mention of Alonsos? When Fao, Benedictas's tone was full of longing and adoration - like a child's feelings for his father. (To be continued.) )
