Chapter 206 The Tragedy of Stratholme in the Illusion of Time 1
Faol took Herald to the bell tower of the church, overlooking the bustling city from a high position.
A bell tower that is more than ten meters high cannot be considered tall.
But it is still a relatively tall building in the city.
Even though Stratholme is a famous big city, there are still very few buildings over ten meters tall.
Although there are not many high-rise buildings in the city.
Climbing up and looking around is quite impressive.
Faao pointed to the continuous city and introduced it proudly.
"This city has a population of over 600,000. The quality of the residents is also very high, and they generally have good assets."
He saw that Herad didn't seem to understand what this meant, so he introduced it to him in detail.
"The city has enough population and assets, which means that tens of thousands or even more militiamen can be armed at any time."
Of course, Herad knew what wealthy residents meant.
People have spare money to buy weapons and equipment and conduct some regular training.
When life and death are at stake, you can defend your home and country at any time.
But what is the point of this hastily armed militia in front of elite troops?
And the one who attacked them was the only prince of the kingdom, the future king.
Who dares to show his sword to the future king?
Herard looked at the prosperous city in front of him and shook his head helplessly.
"Honored Archbishop, what you are showing is meaningless! I will show you the tragic fate of Stratholme in the future!"
As he said this, he took out an hourglass and turned it upside down.
Seeing the gravel containing the power of time begin to flow, Herad cast a spell to pull Faol into the illusion of time.
This is one of many timelines in Azeroth.
The illusion of time shows Stratholme on the eve of destruction.
The bustling streets and pedestrians made Fao unable to distinguish between reality and fiction.
He looked at the pedestrians passing through him in surprise.
I always feel like I have become a ghost.
"What's going on?"
"Don't worry, this is a time illusion about the future."
Hearing what Herard said, Fao quickly regained his composure.
This young mage is said to be a prophet.
The prophet's methods are a bit magical, which is understandable.
Through self-suggestion, he quickly integrated into this illusion of time and began to walk on the streets, looking at the city of the future.
A dozen years later, Stratholme became even more prosperous, and many buildings were renovated and expanded.
More buildings were built on the original vacant land.
Obviously the population has been greatly increased.
This situation is not surprising.
As long as there are not too many wars, there will not be too much pressure on the economy.
The rate of human population growth is absolutely exaggerated!
Stratholme, presented by the illusion of time, is still a thriving city.
Faao felt even more proud when he saw that his hometown was so prosperous.
He looked proudly at Herard beside him.
"Is there no problem with the city? Don't you think this is great?"
Although Herard cast a spell to show this illusion of time, it was also the first time for him to experience it personally.
The prosperous scene in front of him made him feel really peaceful.
But the tragedy that happened in Stratholme was confirmed by the Bronze Dragon King.
So Herard looked around carefully and quickly found something wrong.
It was a family of three enjoying lunch happily.
However, one of the children suddenly vomited while eating.
Seeing the green vomit, Herard immediately thought of the plague.
"Archbishop, look over there, something doesn't seem right!"
Fao looked towards where Herad was pointing and found that the child had fallen to the ground and started twitching.
As the two walked over, the child's parents also began to vomit.
The green vomit made Fao very angry.
"The food is poisonous! It must have been done by some damn thief!"
Thanks to the advanced alchemy, plague is very rare in Azeroth.
Therefore, Faao's first thought was the thieves' poison, not the man-made plague.
Of course, man-made plagues can actually be classified as poisons. Looking at the residents who were turning green but not completely dead, Fao's anger was already boiling over.
In his opinion, this was a slow poison refined by a vicious thief.
The vicious thief wanted to slowly torture these innocent residents to death.
As more and more residents fell, Fao wished he could travel to the future to save people.
By the way, catch that nasty thief and burn him to death.
Just when Fao was filled with hatred, Herad, who turned on God's perspective, saw the large army coming from outside the city.
The only ones who will come at this time are Uther and Prince Alsace.
"Archbishop, let's go to the front door. Uther and Prince Alsace are coming with their troops."
Uther is Fao's protégé.
It is also the most powerful combat force of the Holy Light Church.
When he was still a priest, he was already very good at fighting and was the original template for the human paladin.
The profession of Paladin was created by Faol after studying Uther's situation.
Hearing that Uther was coming with his army, Faol naturally had high hopes for him.
However, when he arrived at the city gate, he heard a group of people arguing about whether to massacre the city.
The core of the crowd were two high-ranking Paladins wearing golden armor.
One of the middle-aged men looked like Uther.
The other young blond man was not impressed at all.
The middle-aged man and the young blond man argued over whether to massacre the city.
The middle-aged man who staunchly opposed was eventually deprived of the commander's position by the young blond man.
"Uther, you have disobeyed the orders of the future king. I hereby declare that you will be relieved of all duties!"
Seeing the arrogance of the young blond man, Fao was so angry that he was shaking all over.
It’s just that the future king is so arrogant.
What if I became a king?
Herard looked at the young blond man and felt that this boy was quite handsome.
It's just that my head is a little hard to use, and I'm being tricked around by the enemy.
After some research, he introduced it to Faao.
"This guy should be Alsace. Next, he will bloodbath Stratholme, and then set the city on fire."
Fao, who was furious, said angrily: "Why does this little beast not look like Minai? From the Hill family?"
Feeling that he had gone too far, he stopped talking.
Those who know everything about the royal family naturally understand it, so there is no need to talk about it too much.
Herard did not understand the meaning.
He subconsciously added: "Sons seem to be more like mothers."
However, he soon realized that there seemed to be a big melon in it.
Things like eating melons depend on timing.
This is obviously not the right time to eat melon.
He turned to pay attention to the current developments.
Uther has worked in the military for many years and has a huge network of contacts.
Even if Prince Alsace forcibly deprived him of his power as the crown prince, he still could not do anything to him.
At least half the soldiers sided with Uther.
Looking at the divided army, Prince Alsace roared angrily.
"You traitors! Get out, get away!"
As soon as Prince Alsace finished speaking, many soldiers walked towards the opposite camp.
No one wants to stand with an incompetent prince.
No one wants to massacre the city.
Attacking unarmed civilians is not what a soldier should do.
When Arthas saw a blond girl leaving, he leaned weakly against the big tree next to him and muttered to himself.
"Jaina, are you even going to betray me?"
The blond girl didn't even pause and walked straight towards Uther's camp.
Herard and Fao, who were standing on the side, were speechless about this.
If I don’t leave at this time, should I follow you to massacre the city?
However, Herard's focus was more on Jaina.
Gianna looks like she has a pretty good figure and her appearance is top-notch.
Herard felt that the genes of this old handsome guy, Dailin, were indeed good.
