Chapter 466: Luo Ning's Redemption
Luo Ning raised his head, and the dark green eyes under the thick fiery red hair looked into the distance a little confused. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He had a scar on his nose that had been made by a fellow apprentice, but no matter how clever the perpetrator was, Ronin had never thought of repairing it.
Even so, Ronin doesn't look ugly by any means - he has a firm and graceful chin and an angular face. A pair of arched eyebrows made his expression always look sarcastic and suspicious.
The vast majority of people are superficial, and before they understand the beauty of each other's minds, they often deny each other from the bottom of their hearts because of the vices brought about by the appearance association.
Luo Ning was also treated in the same way.
His appearance had caused him trouble in his interactions with high-ranking people on more than one occasion, and whenever he tried to alleviate it, his seemingly vicious expression and slightly loud body language could only have a negative effect on the situation.
Dressed in an elegant midnight blue robe, he was tall and handsome, and he was a sight to behold, even for those mages.
Ronin was silent because he had sacrificed five of his best companions in his last mission. For him, who is in a closed house and awaiting trial, the accusations against him will become more and more intense.
He stood straight in the center of the room, looking back at the door, waiting for some mage to come in through the door and speak to him.
interrogation, or the direct sentence of a certain big man against him.
Gates that appeared to be made of hard metal vanished silently, as did those made of magic, controlled by a set of magical control programs that ordinary mages could not understand. You know, the Kenrito Council has used this cage system to incarcerate a very large number of felons in the Violet prison below Dalaran, and has done so for hundreds of years.
The sudden light from the gate made Luo Ning turn his head sideways, his eyes slightly closed. But soon, he opened his eyes again and looked straight into the past.
Unexpectedly, it was not the imposing Inquisitors and Assistants, nor the Crassus he knew and half his mentor, but a young mage with a handful of snow and silver threads in his black hair. His hair was not dyed, but it didn't match his excessively young face.
Luo Ning looked at the comer, and the comer was naturally Duke.
Duke was also looking at Ronin, and he saw a pair of dark green eyes, as calm as a lake before a rainstorm. There is no fear, and there is no anger or hatred. He could clearly see the ugly scar on Luo Ning's nose, and he could also see the helplessness under the seemingly vicious expression.
Not only that, but even anger is hard to find—this sense of incongruity makes it difficult for Duke to associate the person in front of him with the incomparably brilliant Archmage Kenrito in history.
It was the first time Duke had seen such an expression since he had crossed over. It was an expression that would only come after being given up by the teacher, being criticized by colleagues, being abused by the world, and almost becoming the enemy of the whole world.
If it is an ordinary person, most of them will bend their bodies and bow their heads when facing people in high positions, showing a humble and pitiful posture as much as possible.
But Ronin didn't.
From the moment he opened the door, his posture had been as tall as a pine, without a high chin or a lowered gaze, he just calmly looked Duke in the eyes.
Right!
Ronin was not afraid of death, nor was he afraid of cross-examination, he was just waiting for the outcome of a trial.
Is it eternal perdition, or is it ...... Salvation?
"Hello Ronin, my name is Duke Marcus, first time meeting. ”
Duke Marcus!?
A year and a half of the Battle of the Dark Gate has already spread Duke's name across two continents.
Luo Ning showed a stunned look on his face for the first time, why would such a famous big man come to see him?
"Sorry, forgive me for my stupidity, my lord, I don't understand how a sinner like me can do you any good. Or, isn't it fearful that seeing someone like me will bring misfortune to Your Excellency?"
Duke smiled.
"If it is really the power of the goddess of doom, perhaps anyone who looks at it will encounter misfortune. Duke replied, "But your level of misfortune is nothing more than a fur for me, who has only one month left to live under the curse of the Burning Legion Boss Sargeras! Do you want to count down to one? three...... Two...... One...... I'm dead...... Huh, I don't think I'm dead yet. It looks like your misfortune won't work for me, so why don't you mess with me for a while?"
Luo Ning was dumbfounded, he really couldn't keep up with the thoughts of the big man in front of him.
He felt like he was losing the ability to think. Imprisoned by the vicious Kenrito Internal Affairs Force, dragged away almost like a bag of garbage, he thought that this terrible mage career, or even this cursed life, was about to be liberated.
But when the door opened, Luo Ning found that instead of the result of the trial, he would be killed or destroyed in the magic circuits of his whole body, and he would become a mortal who could not use magic for the rest of his life, but a superhero who should have only appeared in legends?
Luo Ning was a little confused.
Duke touched his head: "It seems that my trick is not good! So for the sake of the Alliance, for the sake of the entire human, dwarf and high elves, can you do me a favor? This is a very dangerous mission......
When Duke said this, Ronin suddenly came to his senses.
Luo Ning lowered his head for the first time, and then quickly raised it again, but there were a few more tears in the corners of his eyes, and he shouted hoarsely: "Yes! Let me be willing to do anything! I don't ask for any credit, as long as it allows me to wash away the sins on my body a little, so that I don't have to think of the faces of the victims' families every night, let my heart feel better, even if I die, I am willing!"
Duke was stunned, then came to his senses.
The course of Azeroth's history still retains its original inertia. But this is different from the original historical point in time. At the original node, Luo Ning ran to save the Red Dragon Queen, which was already after the end of the Great War and he was also confined for a long time. At that time, Luo Ning's mood had already calmed down, or his heart was like ashes.
But now, it is the time when Luo Ning's feelings are the most painful and his conscience is most condemned after his crime.
As if he was at a loss in front of the cliff and couldn't find his way to vent his inner pain, Duke stretched a simple wooden bridge across the cliff.
Despite the instability, despite all the incomprehensions, there is no doubt that this is the only salvation for Luo Ning at the moment.
Duke lowered his head and sighed: "Ronin, if you mess with me in the future, let me tell you why your magic always gets out of control." (To be continued.) )
