Chapter three hundred and seventy-one
Zhu Xing's eyes were blurred. Looking at the heroic image of the light messenger Uther in front of him when he died in battle, he had already recalled the past of the master and apprentice, which had passed down the world and had a far-reaching influence on the past of the master and apprentice, especially the main reason for the breakup between the master and apprentice - the Stantolme massacre.
When Zhu Xing heard the question raised by the Great Lord Moglani, he was wondering what he would do if he was the leader of the Silver Hand Knights at that time and faced the order from Alsace!
When Zhu Xing asked himself this question, he suddenly realized that he could give up everything for freedom. How empty and worth pondering this idea!
In fact, this is easy to know and difficult to do!
As stated in the original novel, Zhang Jie and Zheng Zha reached a consensus. Once someone threatened their safety, they would be killed. Everyone nodded in agreement at that time, with an extremely serious attitude. However, when they were really facing whether to abandon those newcomers, Zheng Zha was in trouble, and even broke up with Chu Xuan for a strange newcomer.
Although Zhu Xing boasted of how determined he was, he could not do anything if he really let him massacre thousands of innocent civilians! Even if these innocent civilians would become ignorant and unconscious creatures in a few hours, he could no longer do anything before they transformed!
Arthas believes that the citizens of Stantosom have been infected by the undead plague and will become undead creatures in a few hours and become part of the Scourge Corps. In this way, the strength of the Scourge Corps will increase again, and more people will die in Lordaeron's soldiers, and the situation in Lordaeron will become worse. Therefore, Arthas feels that since these Stanosom citizens have been infected with the undead plague, even if they have not become undead creatures, they are already dead. Since that is the case, I will kill these Stanosom citizens first, so that they will not become undead creatures and become enemies after death.
In the eyes of Uther, the messenger of light, these innocent citizens of Stantosom were indeed very miserable. They should not have become undead creatures in a daze, but they should not have been killed by their own prince before they became undead creatures.
For Uther, the messenger of light, their targets are undead creatures, their enemies are the Scourge Corps, and humans are never their enemies. Therefore, even if they become undead creatures on the battlefield in the future, they will become undead creatures and die in the hands of these undead creatures!
Because that is the fate of being a Paladin!
Is Alsace’s idea wrong?
From his own perspective, Alsace is not wrong!
However, Arthas forgot why the Knights of the Silver Hands were established and what kind of profession is the Paladin!
Just as Uther, the messenger of Light, said, even if these citizens of Stantamme will become undead creatures in one second, you must not kill them this second in advance. As for these people fighting with us after they become undead creatures, at that time, whether you kill them or they kill you is our destiny!
Arthas thought that Uther, the messenger of light, was old and rigid, and was stubborn and pedantic. He thought that his fatalism was a pessimistic ostrich theory. Only by cutting off the tentacles of the Scourge Legion first, can we curb the rapidly expanding power of the Scourge Legion and protect the lives of more Lordaeron soldiers.
However, Arthas did not notice. Before he knew it, he began to fear the Scourge!
It is this fear that made Arthas unconsciously want to weaken the Scourge and defeat the Scourge in other ways, rather than fighting the Scourge in a dignified manner like the old and pedantic Uther he mocked as he was.
It is precisely because of this deepest fear in his heart that Arthas hates and fears the devil Marganis, because Marganis, as the devil of fears, is very clear about the fear that Arthas hides in the deepest heart!
In fact, the reason why Uther was able to become the leader of the Knights of the Silver Hands was praised by an outstanding commander like Turayan forever because Uther was strong without desire!
Because Uther, the messenger of Light, did not have so many thoughts in his heart, that he and his Silver Hand Knights, a military force that could shake any kingdom, could exist. It was Uther's selfless belief that made everyone not afraid of this powerful sergeant power. If Uther no longer pursues a dignified path, but like Arthas, who has no bottomless moral integrity in pursuit of victory, then Uther and his Silver Hand Knights will no longer exist.
"Glory is my life!"
Zhu Xing's blurred eyes gradually clarified. He looked at Uther's immortal will and the immortal holy light, and looked at the slogans of the Knights of the Silver Hand written on the front of the stone platform. He chanted in a deep voice word by word!
"Teacher, if I were Uther, I would also refuse to execute the Alsace's massacre order!"
Zhu Xing said in a deep voice in his heart.
"Oh? Boy, haven't you always thought that infinite space has infinite possibilities, and you can't stick to the rules here and you must use any means. After all, living without reason. Can you do anything to achieve this goal?"
Hearing Zhu Xing's words, the great lord Moglani asked intently.
"Teacher... I was wrong! In fact, people can be shameless, despicable, and splash, but they must not have no bottom limit! If a person really uses any means to achieve his goal, then his path will come to an end! When you break through the bottom limit, break your moral integrity, and start to use any means, then others can also deal with you by any means!"
"Just like Prince Arthas, he broke through the bottom line. In order to curb the expansion of the Scourge, he brazenly issued a city-slaughter order, and used the reason that everyone in Stasom was infected by the undead plague and was about to become a dead creature to comfort himself. In order to kill the fearful demon king Marganis, he ignored the fatigue of his soldiers and chased the distant cold Northrend. In order to stay in Northrend, he could turn his promise and kill all the Northrend natives who burned ships according to his order. Such a person who broke through his bottom line and used all means to achieve his goal was eventually plotted by the Lich King, who was obviously superior in his skills, and pulled out his magic sword "Frost Sorrow" and became the most loyal slave of the Lich King - the Death Knight Arthas."
"Teacher, what I meant when I said I was wrong is that I was also afraid of this infinite space!"
"Alsace is my lesson!"
"If I break my limits and start to act by any means like Arthas, because of the deepest fear in my heart, then my path will soon come to an end!"
Zhu Xing looked at the stone statue of Uther, the envoy of the Light, the leader of the Silver Hand Knights, and the golden holy light that was still immortal even after years of death, he said with emotion.
When Zhu Xing said this, he suddenly realized that although the great lord Moglani wanted to visit his old friend, his real purpose might be to let himself understand this truth!
It seems that after the death of Uther, the Knights of the Silver Hand fell apart. The three of them, the Grand Lord Moglani, General Abidis, and the Grand Judglan, created the Blood Crusade, have a story. I believe that because Uther refused to execute the Alsace massacre order, it was probably not all the same opinion in the Knights of the Silver Hand. There were other opinions, and the voice was not small. Otherwise, today, Moglani would not ask himself such an extremely sharp spiritual question by paying homage to Uther, the Envoy of the Light!
Just as Zhu Xingfu was thinking about it, the power of the holy light in his body was quietly undergoing huge changes!
