Chapter 678
Returning to the camp they were building in the Arras Highlands, looking at Uther and Ashes returning to the camp, Clara and the fire girl walked over.
Clara looked at the ashes with spring breeze on her face, smiled and raised her eyebrows and asked, "How is it? You look like you are very happy~ Have you gained anything?"
Ashes chuckled, and took out the trophy he had just captured from his backpack, a jet black hammer, and said with a smile, "Of course~ I, Ashes, went out, how could I come back empty-handed? I directly took the tribe's big
Chief, kill them on the spot! It can be said to be a huge victory in this operation to encircle and suppress the orcs!"
Uther on the side also nodded, smiled at Clara and said, "Yes, Mr. Ashes played a great role in this operation. He killed the orc warchief who gave us a huge headache. It can be said that he will be very useful to us in the future."
His actions played a decisive role!"
Not long after, the sullen Arthas returned to the camp with the knights who went to hunt the orcs with him. Looking at Arthas who had gained nothing, Uther asked him calmly, "How is the situation?"
?Alsace?”
Arthas snorted coldly and said angrily, "Let those bastards escape! Our knights are wearing heavy armor and there is no way they can catch up with those orcs in the woods... and there is no way the horses are in the dense forest."
It works! Damn it…”
Hearing Alsace's words, Uther nodded without surprise, looked at Alsace and said lightly, "Don't be discouraged, Alsace, this operation has already yielded enough results. Mr. Ashes killed him with his own hands."
With the help of the chief of the tribe who stayed behind to cut off the rear, the group of orcs are now leaderless and there is nothing to worry about..."
Arthas suddenly turned his head to look at Ashes, and said angrily, "But we could have completely annihilated this group of orcs, and we could have saved the soldiers in that concentration camp! But because of...but because of this guy, we missed all of this!"
"
Looking at Alsace who was pointing the finger at him, Ashes couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to stop Uther who wanted to say something, and slowly came to Alsace, looking at this man who seemed to have suffered something.
The prince, who was overwhelmed with grievances, asked slowly, "Because of me? Do you know what you are talking about? It's not us... You don't even know the specific location where the orcs appeared. If it's not us, you won't even gain that little bit."
Yes, if it weren't for me, you would still be like headless flies, eating ashes wherever the orcs walk! And you...you can actually lick your face and do your duty to me in front of me now?"
When Arthas heard what Ashes said, he shouted angrily, "But you know, you already knew that the group of orcs would come out from there, but you didn't tell us. In other words, it was you who let the group of orcs go.
You killed those innocent guards!"
Hearing Alsace's angry rebuke, Uther couldn't help but get furious. He looked at Alsace and said angrily, "Alsace! Do you know what you are talking about? You are the only hero who has made any achievements in this action of duty.
!You are responsible for a powerful warrior who can easily defeat the tribal warchief! I want you to apologize!"
The meaning of Uther's words was very clear. He wanted to apologize to Ashes, not because of what he did, but because of his strength. In other words, he was telling Arthas in disguise that Ashes... shouldn't be offended.
As the heir to the country, he shouldn't be so emotional...
Hearing Uther's words, Arthas showed an unwilling expression, ready to give in and apologize to Ashes. After all... Uther is still his teacher now...
But Ashes grinned, stretched out his hand and patted Arthas' face, jokingly saying, "No need to apologize, kid~ because everything you said is right! I know where those orcs will come out, but I just don't want to tell you.
, because I didn’t want to, of course you can say that I let the group of orcs go, which is actually what I did, because I had no interest in them. You can also say that I killed those so-called innocent guards,
Because their life and death has nothing to do with me, I don’t care about them even more!"
Seeing Ashes admitting what he had done and not even feeling ashamed but proud of it, Alsace, who had been prepared to apologize, became even more furious!
Pointing at the ashes, he said in disbelief, "You... how dare you? Aren't you afraid of being punished for treason? Don't you know that what you did deserves the guillotine?"
Faced with Alsace's accusation, Ashes chuckled, tilted his head disdainfully and said, "Well~ That's a good question, so may I ask... which country did I betray? I really don't think I'm a subject of the Kingdom of Stormwind.
, of course, not from your Lordaeron~ As for the guillotine...you are not naive enough to think that a child's toy can kill me, right? Or do you think I will allow someone to hang a rope around my neck? Haha
!joke!"
Arthas found that he couldn't criticize Ashes' stance, because this guy was simply incompetent in this regard! After pondering for a moment, Arthas decided to criticize Ashes' character!
"You...you are a monster!"
"Praise me more and keep talking, I'm listening~"
"As a knight, I simply can't imagine that there is a cold-blooded, standless monster like you who despises life. As a human being, you actually let the orcs go and let them slaughter humans! His heart is despicable and his actions are despicable!
I…"
Hui Jin rolled his eyes helplessly and interrupted Alsace, "So you're going to argue with me now? Great~ After moving your hands and feet, you can now use your brain. This is really a good idea.
Entertainment~ Let’s have a fight! Did you just say that I am cold-blooded? Yes, I am very cold-blooded, because I have seen too much blood, and when the blood hit my face, it was already cold.
, life is worthy of respect to me, but this is not the reason why I reach out to save lives, because life and death are normal things in my eyes. You say I have no position? That’s because I
If I stand higher than you, you can’t see what I see!”
Seeing the two people starting to argue, Uther hurriedly walked between the two, pulled Alsace away, and said as he walked, "Alsace, you said too much! Maybe it's because you are too tired.
, go and rest quickly! This is my order from Uther! Go and execute it, knight!"
Arthas, who was still about to say something, looked at Uther who could not refuse, narrowed his eyes, stared at the ashes for a long time, and then left angrily.
Ashes carried Uther on his back, made a face and stuck out his tongue at Arthas who was leaving.
After sending Alsace away, Uther looked at Ashes helplessly, sighed and said, "Sorry, Mr. Ashes, Alsace's character... is a bit too stubborn... after all, he is still young."
Faced with Uther's explanation, Ashes sneered and said seriously to Uther, "Don't blame me for talking too much. That kid's problem can't be simply described as stubbornness. He is arrogant, egoistic, and arrogant! You have to pay it back with yourself."
We measure the whole world with immature values and concepts of good and evil, and the most speechless thing is that this guy actually thinks he is completely right! Oh my god, how can there be such a narcissistic guy? What on earth are you doing to him?
How much hope has been poured into it!”
Uther turned his head and looked at the direction Arthas left. He sighed softly and said, "He is the future king of Lordaeron. Although it is not a good thing to say this,...Lordaeron is one of the Eastern Kingdoms."
, the most powerful human country, and...I also hope that he can inherit my mantle and become the next lightbringer of the Knights of the Silver Hand..."
Hearing Uther's words, Hui Jin rolled his eyes helplessly, showing the same expression as before, and said lightly, "That's it~ you shine too much spotlight on this brat, so that he can't see it at all.
The shadow under his feet also made him develop a conceited character, and it is now difficult to correct this problem..."
Clara on the side suddenly chuckled and complained helplessly, "Little Ashes, how dare you criticize others? Aren't you the most conceited person here?"
Ashes stiffened his neck, turned to look at Clara and said speechlessly, "Am I arrogant? Well... so what if I am arrogant? If I cause any trouble, I can solve it myself! For example, that kid said
I can catch up with the escaped orcs and kill them all right now. I can even resurrect the dead guards. That’s why I am qualified to be conceited, but what about that kid? He can solve this problem!"
Clara lightly shrugged and nodded noncommittally, "That's true~ But...after all, you are also an old-timer in the conceited world, can't you give that kid some medicine to treat him?"
"
Hearing Clara's words, which she didn't know whether they were compliments or sarcasm, Hui Jin chuckled and said jokingly, "There are ways...and there are more than one~ The best way is to make that kid stronger! Make him like me.
Same, as long as you have the qualifications to be conceited~"
"Um... Do you want Arthas to be as powerful as Mr. Ashes? Um..." Uther showed an embarrassed expression. How should I put it? After seeing Ashes easily kill the tribal chief, Uther
I began to feel that this frivolous man in front of me had power that ordinary people could hardly match...
Hui Jing showed an expression that I know you can't do, shrugged and continued, "Well, you don't have to be so powerful as me, that's unrealistic, but at the very least, let him be able to solve most of the problems in this world.
That’s the question~ As for the second method, it’s much simpler~ Let that kid have a taste of suffering! Let him suffer a little! In this case, he will have to recognize his own weakness. In this way,
He will have to get off his high horse!"
After hearing these so-called methods from Ashes, Uther sighed, shook his head gently and said, "I know, I will... think about it carefully."
After saying that, Uther also turned and left. Looking at Uther leaving, Ashes turned to look at Clara and the Fireproof Girl with a joking smile and said, "Hehehe, it's actually useless~ This kid is useless."
