When Aaron opened his eyes again, the first thing that caught his eye was the wooden ceiling above. He looked up at the fresh lines on the ceiling for a long time before he came back to his senses. Aaron subconsciously asked, "Is Archimonde dead?"
"Dead, dead and clean."
"Really? That's good." Aaron breathed a long sigh of relief. The scene before he fainted quickly flashed through his mind, which even made his head hurt. He hurriedly wanted to stretch out his hand to rub it, but was surprised to find that he couldn't lift up any strength at all. Although he could feel the existence of his arm, he couldn't lift it up no matter what. He could only repeat the process of raising it slightly and then falling down again.
"Don't move, you are not in a good condition right now." The owner of the voice that just answered Aaron's question hurriedly stood up, held down Aaron's arms, and a worried and tired face with an expression of joy appeared in Aaron's field of vision.
"Vereesa, how long have I been asleep?" Aaron feels that his mental state is not bad, but his physical weakness is very serious. Judging from his rich experience of physical exhaustion, I don't know how long it will take to recover this time.
"You fell asleep... Let me think about it, it has been three days." Vereesa helped Aaron sit up against the wall, frowning and said to Aaron, "I heard from Archaedas that you went on an adventure alone again, right?"
"Well... I couldn't help it at the time..." Aaron looked a little embarrassed. He had clearly promised seriously not to abandon Vereesa before, but in the end he embarked on the road of facing danger alone. At that time, he didn't think there was anything wrong., but now facing Vereesa, Aaron really felt that he didn't know how to explain it, because he knew very well that if he failed to hold on and wake up this time, then the blow to Vereesa would definitely be serious.
"Forget it, I know you can't change this at all. As punishment, I want you not to leave my side for this year." Looking at Aaron's dull expression, Vereesa's tense face suddenly relaxed and said with a smile, "By the way, do you want to go out for a walk? I see those Druid take the wounded soldiers for a walk every day, saying it is good for recovery."
"Go out for a walk? It's okay..." Aaron nodded. He felt that his problem and injury were two different things, but it was good to go out for a walk. He put his hands on the bed board and was about to get up, but suddenly fell back. He could only say to Vereesa awkwardly, "It seems that I have to wait before I can get up."
"It seems that your situation is really a bit troublesome... Wait, I remembered, just wait for me, I'll be back soon." After Vereesa finished speaking, he disappeared in a hurry, leaving Aaron alone sitting on the bed in a daze. After a while, Vereesa's voice was accompanied by the sound of some kind of mechanical operation, "Okay, Aaron, let's try this."
Aaron raised his eyes and saw Vereesa returning to this simple wooden house with a strange mechanical creation with four legs. The mechanical product did not look much different from the wheelchair that Aaron was familiar with, but it was different from the wheelchair that Aaron was familiar with. For Aaron, who researches and develops various products with Mekkatorque, this thing definitely uses the technology related to Mechanical Hawkstrider. Rather, this thing is just replacing the upper body of Hawkstrider with a chair.
Vereesa's explanation also proves this point. "This is designed and made by great craftsmen for use by wounded soldiers. I borrowed one, can you come up? Forget it, I will help you up."
Aaron did not refuse Vereesa's support. With the other party's help, he sat on this strange-looking machine. Apart from anything else, the stability was much better than Mechanical Hawkstrider.
But after opening the wooden house with Vereesa, Aaron had a strange feeling in his heart. "I... think, is there something wrong with this?"
The main reason is that the control method of this strange-looking machine is not controlled by Aaron sitting on it, but Vereesa on the side determines the direction and speed through the joystick in his hand.
In order to facilitate the use of Night Elfs who are generally about two meters tall, the joystick of this thing is at least one meter high and can be flexibly rotated to adjust the direction. Aaron always feels that Vereesa is walking himself like a dog.
However, seeing a lot of injured people sitting on machines like this outside being carried around by others, Aaron slowly began to feel less awkward.
"Because the dwarf mechanical products played a lot of roles in this battle, Ya-Mei Trading Company also received a lot of new orders." Vereesa seemed to be afraid that Aaron would be boring, so he brought over the previous Sicco Thermaplugg What was said when visiting Aaron was told to Aaron, "However, Sicco Thermaplugg seemed not very happy about this incident. He said that the great craftsman had stolen his limelight and went back to Covenant City to research new products."
"It's quite similar to his temper." Aaron shook his head. After several years of getting along, he already knew Sicco Thermaplugg's temper very well. Rather than being a conspirator who always wants to fight for power, he is more like a child with a temper who always doesn't want to lose to Mekkatorque. It is normal to make such a decision.
"Wait a minute, what's that over there?" Aaron suddenly saw something that looked familiar standing in an open space not far away, very close to the explosion crater. "Is that the statue that was modeled after Silver Hand?"
"No, that's Silver Hand. Archaedas said that's your weapon. It's better to wait for you to wake up and deal with it yourself."
"That's... Oh, yes, I fainted at that time," Aaron suddenly realized and patted his forehead, waved to Silver Hand, and wanted to put away the warhammer, but found that Silver Hand, who was originally an arm wielder, had no response. Aaron was stunned for a while, not knowing what happened.
Vereesa saw that Aaron's expression was a little dull, and carefully reminded him, "You should still remember what Archimonde did to you before he died, right?"
"What did Archimonde do to me?" Aaron recalled it, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately tried to find Holy Light in his body, but found nothing. He couldn't help but sigh, "I thought someone would help me solve this problem while I was asleep."
"Both Archbishop Uther and Faol came to see your situation, but said they were helpless." Vereesa glanced at Aaron's face and continued, "Archimonde's curse has become entangled with you, and even His Majesty Malygos can't solve it."
"Why do I care about this? Archimonde is dead. The world is already very good, even without me." Aaron smiled and signaled to Vereesa that he didn't have to worry about himself. Thinking on the bright side, this may mean that his mission is over and he can retire early and be the lord of Covenant City with peace of mind?
"It's great if you think so." A smile appeared on Vereesa's face again. Before Aaron woke up, she had been worried that Aaron would do it because of this. Unable to think about it, in order to distract Aaron's attention from this matter, Vereesa began to tell Aaron what happened in the past few days when he passed out in bed.
The first is Alliance. As the main force of the first line of defense, Alliance soldiers suffered many casualties. However, it is good news that some of the deceased soldiers were absorbed into Halls of Valor by Odyn. Except for the wounded soldiers who are inconvenient to transfer and the soldiers responsible for taking care of these wounded soldiers, the soldiers of the Alliance have withdrawn themselves in the past few days.
This is also to prepare for the next meeting. After experiencing this war, both Alliance and Night Elf agreed to establish a broader and deeper cooperative relationship. However, if too many soldiers stay on this land, it will inevitably affect the negotiations between the Alliance and Night Elf.
Speaking of Night Elf, as the owners of this land, they were inevitably affected. The biggest impact was that due to the impact of the explosion, the blessing of the Dragon King above Nordrassil began to weaken. The eternal blessing of Night Elf seemed to be ineffective. These immortal species had to learn how to face life, old age, illness and death.
Apart from the mortals, Titan-forged and Dragonflights, to be precise, Titan Keepers and Dragon Aspects, were also somewhat interested in the following meeting. They finally realized the potential of the mortal race.
However, only two Dragon Aspects will stay to participate in this memory. The Lightforging-turned-Malygos is busy looking for a new Aspect of the Blue, but before that, he has to have a good talk with Senegos. Ten thousand years of madness has accumulated too many responsibilities for him and needs to be taken up again.
In addition to the news that Aaron had expected or that was unexpected but not unexpected, Aaron also learned another news from Vereesa: Orcs also sent people to participate in this battle, which almost made Aaron fall off the chair.
These Orcs were naturally the group sent by Aaron to Northrend to cut down trees. They came with the Titan-forged team, and the reason why they participated in the war was said to be that Orcs, who claimed to be the son of Durotan, actually planned to They released a plague in their clan, and it turned out that Nerubians, who happened to be repairing the underground passage in their area, helped solve the problem, so Orcs decided to take revenge on the Orcs who betrayed them, and to repay the kindness of Nerubians.
"This is quite interesting, I almost forgot about those Orcs things," Aaron didn't know what to say for a while, Orcs still participated in this matter of Azeroth's future war, but this time it is not with the identity of Horde. There is no race that would not think of forming an alliance with them to fight against the gaining momentum of the Alliance.
The only problem is that the guy who is suspected of being Thrall actually joins Ner'zhul again? Aaron remembers that Thrall brought people to settle accounts with Ner'zhul before? No matter what happened, Aaron feels that he may have to deal with Ner'zhul in the future.
But Aaron is very curious. After losing Icecrown Citadel and Mount Hyjal losing a lot of troops, how much more trouble can Ner'zhul make?
Aaron and Vereesa were chatting while leisurely walking around Nordrassil. Although only three days had passed, traces of the war still existed, but the atmosphere in the area had restored Tranquility. This atmosphere also infected the two of them, making them unable to help but slow down their pace until they stopped on the top of a hill that was not very high.
"The scenery here is very good, just stay here for a while." Vereesa pointed to a lake under the hill and said to Aaron, "Can you come down by yourself? Do you want me to help you?"
"I'm just weak, not disabled." Aaron waved his hands and struggled to stand up from the wheelchair. However, the fatigue in his bones made him choose a tree to lean against and sit down, quietly admiring the scenery.
Vereesa looked at Aaron, sat next to Aaron, and sat side by side with Aaron. Looking at the scenery in front of him that belonged to Mount Hyjal, he sighed, "It's so beautiful. It would be great if it could always be like this."
"Yes, it's so beautiful." Aaron agreed, but his eyes were not on the scenery in front of him, but quietly looking at Vereesa's profile.
"What are you looking at?" Vereesa noticed Aaron's movements and turned his head slightly.
Aaron said something out of nowhere, "Vereesa, will you marry me?"
"What did you just say? I seem to have heard wrongly." Vereesa's red ear tips proved that she heard correctly.
Aaron looked at Vereesa seriously, "Vereesa, shall we get married?"
"Aaron, you... why are you... too sudden?" Vereesa stammered with red clouds rising on his face.
"Well... I just think the current atmosphere is very suitable. If you don't..." Aaron felt that he was a little too sudden when he said this, but he was also sure that this was the true thought in his heart.
After waking up today, Aaron's heart seemed to be completely empty, which is why he was able to understand some of his suppressed thoughts. Rather, all that filled Aaron's mind was Vereesa. What exactly Vereesa said along the way was completely forgotten by Aaron. In his mind, there was only Vereesa in front of him.
The calm atmosphere just now made Aaron speak out his thoughts completely uncontrollably, but he did not regret it because it was his true thought.
The only question is, will Vereesa agree? Aaron thinks that Vereesa will definitely agree, but when he says it, he can't help but have something to say. What should he do if Vereesa doesn't agree with him?
"If she doesn't agree, I'll just jump from here into the lake and let her regret it!" Aaron felt that this was also his true thought, but looking at Vereesa's expression and eyes, he felt that he seemed a bit too impulsive, "Should I find a better opportunity? How about waiting a few more years? Forget it, I'll just jump into the lake to calm down."
Aaron's thoughts can't seem to get around the lake in front of him. Maybe it's because the color of Vereesa's eyes is so similar to the lake? He thought so.
"I... are willing!" Vereesa lowered his head and remained silent for a while with a red face. Then he raised his head and came closer to Aaron. He gently pecked Aaron on the lips and whispered, "I am willing."
It seems that Aaron doesn't have to jump into the lake anymore.
