However, just like his sister, Jarod Shadowsong had a pair of very beautiful green eyes. It was just that his eyes gave off a sense of serenity and tranquility, unlike Maiev Shadowsong's eyes, which were filled with hatred and stubbornness.
"Esteemed Commander, I'm here," Lu Li walked up a few steps and bowed to this legend of the elves.
"Welcome, my brave tribesman. I would like to apologize to you for coming too late," Jarod Shadowsong was very magnetic, and his slow and unhurried voice made people feel relaxed.
Years ago, it was exactly with such an unhurried voice that he commanded thousands of elven soldiers to fight a bloody battle against the Burning Legion. Eventually, they secured a head-on victory on the battlefield and earned a precious opportunity for Malfurion and the rest of them.
"The insectoids are the enemies of the entire continent. This is what I should do. I'm very happy that we stopped Chongzi's footsteps," Lu Li said humbly.
"Brave adventurers, under the leadership of their commander, stubbornly resisted the attack of the insectoids. The annals of history will record your achievements," Jarod Shadowsong didn't hide his admiration for Lu Li at all. He seemed to see the shadow of himself when he was young in Lu Li.
"Uh …" Lu Li wasn't very moved.
What use was there in the annals of history? What he wanted was a real reward, not these so-called annals that couldn't be sold for gold or increase stats.
"Did you know that in the land of Azeroth, some people are called heroes?" Jarod Shadowsong seemed to be able to see Lu Li's disdain for being recorded in the annals of history. He smiled and explained, "These kinds of heroes don't mean how strong they are, or how much they contribute to the defense of the continent. To be called a hero, they can only be called a hero because they left their mark in the annals of Azeroth."
"May I ask, to what extent do you have to go to become a hero?" Lu Li asked curiously.
"That's a good question. In your case, who can be called a hero?" Jarod Shadowsong asked back.
"You can definitely be called a hero," Lu Li said in a small tone of flattery.
"Haha, maybe you can say that. Do you think my sister can be called a hero?" Jarod Shadowsong gave an example.
Lu Li was a bit troubled. He didn't know what the Shadowsong siblings' attitude towards each other was, so he said more cautiously, "Lady Maiev is very strong and was once a member of the Elune Sisters. I think she's a hero."
"Well, I've said it before. A hero is called a hero not because of his strength or contributions," Jarod Shadowsong shook his head, "Maiev can indeed be called a hero, but the reason she is called a hero is not because of her strength or identity, but because of the battle between her and Illidan, as well as her establishment of the Overwatch organization."
"What about Illidan? Forget it, let's change it to Arthas." Jarod Shadowsong gave another example. At first, he chose Illidan, but then he changed his mind, as if he felt that Illidan was not representative enough.
"Arthas. Before he pulled out Frostmourne, he might have been called a hero. Now that he's killed so many people, how can he still be a hero?" Lu Li said without hesitation.
His attitude towards Arthas and Illian was quite clear.
Illian might have done a lot of bad things, but he had a clear personality. He had his own principles, was dedicated to magic, hated the Burning Legion, and learned demonic spells in order to fight against the Burning Legion. Lu Li felt that there was no problem with this person at all.
As for Arthas, perhaps many people liked this prince.
However, whenever Lu Li thought of Pamela's pitiful appearance, he felt that this prince was evil beyond redemption. There were millions of people like Pamela, and millions of families that were broken, all because of the Scourge Army.
"Hehe, if it's not because of strength, contribution, or good or evil, will the Chronicles of Azeroth erase Arthas?" Jarod Shadowsong said.
"Then doesn't that mean that even evil people can be called heroes?" Lu Li really wanted to complain.
"You could say that," Jarod Shadowsong said with certainty. "So, now do you know how important it is to be recorded in the history books?"
"I just want to know what are the benefits of being a hero." Lu Li finally understood now. The heroes in Dawnlight were not the heroes that everyone understood normally. They were more like a level. Only when one's influence reached a certain level could they be ranked in this level.
The experience gained from being a hero was probably fame.
No matter if they were good or bad, as long as their fame reached this level, which meant that they had done something that had a huge impact, then this person (?) Would be a hero.
"There are some things, or quests, that only heroes have the right to participate in." Jarod Shadowsong's explanation was already very simple. In other words, only when one became a hero could they participate in some major events in the game.
If one's fame wasn't big enough, they wouldn't even bring one along to play.
"Thank you for answering my questions. With my current fame, how far do I need to go before I can be called a hero?" Lu Li asked.
"You're still far from that. When you become a real hero, everyone will have to look up to you." Jarod Shadowsong smiled and asked, "Do you still want other benefits now?"
"Of course." Lu Li was very blunt. "Whether or not I can become a so-called hero is not something I can decide. Instead, fighting for rewards for my comrades is something that I, as a commander, have to do."
"If you put it that way … it doesn't seem unreasonable." Jarod Shadowsong had to admit that Lu Li was right.
After winning a battle, fighting for rewards for his subordinates was completely reasonable for Lu Li as a commander.
"My brothers, their strength is indeed low, but for Azeroth, many of them persevered and fought for ten hours. Their contributions are no less than anyone else's," Lu Li bargained like a merchant.
For NPCs like Jarod Shadowsong, Lu Li had no way of forcing him to give rewards.
However, Lu Li's reputation was not just for show. He couldn't force him, so he could play the emotional card. He didn't believe that Jarod Shadowsong couldn't see those exhausted players. As the leader of an army, Jarod Shadowsong definitely couldn't be indifferent.
What kind of soldiers did the general like the most? Soldiers who fought bravely!
