Although it hurt that Alonsos Faol could not directly mobilize the Knights of the Silver Hand to help Carlos clean Alterac, it was still a significant thing that the Archbishop was wary of the Curse Sect.
Alonsos Faol is just physically exhausted, but his brain is not demented. In a sense, a spiritual leader can do more than a king.
For example, in addition to the Paladins, Archbishop Fao is still the life mentor of priests, and he still has many useful students in his pocket, such as the famous Benedictus.
When Alonsos Faol took out a seal and a list and handed it to Carlos, Carlos's identity had already been endorsed by the Holy Light Sect.
But Carlos couldn't laugh or cry.
He has no shortage of strength.
Even though he has been "missing" for ten years, Carlos still has "power". He is still the king of Alterac and the great hero of the Alliance.
But the problem now is that in the days he lost, the Curse Cult has penetrated into the blood vessels of the alliance like a chronic toxin, and Carlos is the only effective antidote.
This sense of responsibility and mission made him willing to stay dormant for the sake of the overall situation.
What he lacks now is an army whose loyalty can be guaranteed, and a group of comrades who can serve as executioners.
If things like the Great Purge are not done well, there will be endless troubles. If any lurking enemy is let go, the poisons and daggers secretly can kill relatives and friends.
So if you don't move, it will be fine. If you move, you will be thunderous.
"I probably understand your concerns. Although priests don't have the same power as paladins, they are enough to identify shadow users."
Alonsos Faol hesitated for a moment and comforted him.
This is deceiving people with the truth.
It is true that Faol gave the position of Grand Master to Uther, but if he really made a request directly to Uther beyond Terenas, the Lightbringer would not ignore the Archbishop's request.
But what's the cost?
It was the separation between the Silver Hand, the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and the House of Menethil.
A powerful army only under the command of the Archbishop!
Terenas would not allow the Silver Hand to exist.
Carlos is right to worry about the endless harm caused by the Cult of the Damned.
But Faao cannot directly contribute to the demise of the Silver Hand because of a disaster that has not yet occurred.
If the Hand of Silver is defeated by its own people, who will turn the tide?
This is the paradox between result justice and process justice.
So Alonsos Fao could only use other methods to help Carlos.
The two talked for a while and exchanged information before Carlos left quietly.
"You don't look good?"
Sola looked at Carlos, who was frowning, and knew that his meeting with Alonsos Faol might not go well.
"Find a venue and let's spar."
Carlos suddenly suggested.
"Okay, I've thought so for a long time."
Sora readily agreed.
Then, after the initial testing phase, Carlos only had two moves to knock Sora to the ground.
The first move used brute force to knock Sora's weapon away, and the second move was to get close to her and grab her arm and throw her back.
Until the vibration of contact with the earth disappeared from his brain, Sola didn't come back to it.
What just happened? !
"What...have you experienced in these years?"
This was no longer a strength that normal humans could possess. Sora suddenly understood that he had underestimated the man in front of him.
"A bizarre dream."
Carlos said mockingly.
He understands that sometimes no one believes the truth.
"With such power, what are you still struggling with? Go back to Alterac, raise your arms and kill all those who don't follow, why do you need to be so entangled!"
Sora suggested somewhat enthusiastically.
"It's not impossible, but it's the worst choice."
"Why?"
Sora asked confused.
"You think I am powerful, so you blindly follow and believe in me. But have you ever seen true power? In front of Archimonde, I have no choice but to run for my life. The trust system established because of worshiping the strong will not be replaced by another strong person." It was in tatters before me. Ten years, in your eyes, it took me ten years to gain my current strength, but what I lost was trust. I no longer know who to trust. Do you understand, this is my current strength? Dilemma. I have stood at the pinnacle of human strength, ruling a country, with great prestige, but like a loner."
Carlos's speech was slightly performative, but it was not deception.
This is his true feeling.
Maybe others will be confused. It is clear that by returning to Alterac or even going to Lordaeron to find Terenas, everything lost can be regained. Why is Carlos being pretentious?
But who knows how hard Carlos has worked for the perfection of "everyone is happy".
The Cult of the Damned is like a poisonous snake hiding under the sheets, making it impossible to sleep.
If you want to break the situation, you must get enough support from outside Alterac to counterattack.
Only by perfectly conquering Alterac and fully regaining his authority will Carlos be qualified to compete with the Burning Legion and the Ancient Gods in the coming craze.
The strong man's farts taste good, and everything he says is right. If you feel it is wrong, it is because you are too weak and cannot see the scenery in the eyes of the strong.
At least Sora thought so, so after being crushed by Carlos, she naturally thought about the problem from Carlos's perspective.
So she suggested: "Then why don't you secretly summon the old team?"
"What old department?"
Carlos looked confused, I still have the old team?
"Of course he is your former subordinate. You are a man who has been the general marshal of the alliance."
"Those ordinary..."
Carlos suddenly found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.
Yes, why should we limit our sights to Alterac and the Silver Hand, or rather to humans.
The harm of the Cursed Sect is the harm of the entire Azeroth. Isn’t it funny that a human being is carrying the building to its knees?
Even if ten years are lost, everything he has done for the alliance will not be erased.
I really still have my old subordinates!
Before the expedition to Draenor, weren't all the people on the return list my old troops?
Dwarves and elves, aren't they all allies?
"And you got one thing wrong."
"What?"
"Alterac has no shortage of paladins."
"Um?"
According to the information obtained previously, his father made many concessions during the political confrontation with his father-in-law. One of them was that Alterac's Paladin training system must be integrated into the Silver Hand, and no second Saint was allowed to appear within the alliance. Knights Chapter.
Carlos knew the material and manpower needed to train a Paladin. Forget it during the war, Alterac's national strength could not support the training of a large number of Paladins when it entered the peaceful farming stage.
"You don't think your father is an honest man."
"What's the meaning?"
"Turalyon took over the command of the Alliance army after you disappeared and went to Draenor again. At that time, there were two batches of graduated paladins in Alterac, but they were hidden by Grand Duke Alex."
"Aha!"
Carlos made a surprised and slightly silly sound.
My dear father.
