Chapter 238: Lost (22)
What is a regent? The orc envoy was completely confused.
Although the Great Chief has supreme power, he is also elected by the leaders of the various tribes, and if he dies or does not want to sit on the chair that symbolizes the pinnacle anymore, everyone can elect another one.
Since the shamans were reluctant to spend precious time dealing with foreign tribes, most of the orc messengers were appointed by the most representative warriors, and the one in front of Loria was probably just in office like Suopei, so it was not clear that in the East, the state was passed down from generation to generation among the king's blood relatives, so when the king was unwilling or unable to serve the council, there was a regent who exercised the position of king but did not have royal power.
Of course, if you succeed in killing all the members of the royal family, you can still control the country from turmoil, and those who finally succeed in transforming into the new king are not among them...... In Azeroth, however, there is no precedent yet.
"Probably like a wise man next to the Great Chief. ”
Suo Pei explained, hoping to let the envoy know that there was no place to wait for the meeting-why he came to the door without saying a word, and wanted to meet the queen without saying a word, and it was enough to keep Loria here.
"Oh!oh!" the orc envoy named Kusa probably had the straightforward personality of many of his people, "like Chief Woking." ”
Well, it's like standing next to the Great Chief in obscurity all his life, and it took some time for the orcs to think of the chief of the Dark Spear tribe called Woking, and like the great craftsman Mekatok who stood at the door of the subway and whose name many people didn't know was Gerbin.
For example, in a paradisiacal country where there are absolutely no problems with pensions and everyone on the street is very happy, many people can recite the names of the great chiefs of the emirate on the other side of the sea called Mi Union and regarded as imaginary enemies (at least the earliest Washington and the most recent comrades O'Guanhai, and perhaps Truman, who threw a little boy at the head of the national enemy), but few people know what those deputy chiefs are called.
In short, he is a character who is responsible for carrying the blame but is not pleasing and is forgotten by the times every minute.
"What a pitiful dead child. "The orc envoy sympathized with Loria, who became an undead at such a young age, and became an undead and would have to be covered by the queen's shadow for the rest of her life.
"What did he say?"
Loria asked Suo Pei, she had heard the phrase Dead Child (although her role was really 'Dead Child'), and she was not sure about her orc language skills, so she had to ask.
"He said hello, he liked you very much. ”
"Can that help me ask a question that has been bothering me...... Can orcs photosynthesize?"
Seeing Loria and Sopei muttering on the side, the orc envoy, who didn't understand the lingua franca at all, interrupted, "She...... What is your regent talking about?"
"Your Excellency Regent says hello, she welcomes you on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen. Suo Pei, who had the advantage of language, said nonsense, "Please come with me, and let's talk about the news you brought from this trip." ”
……
"Alterac Valley?"
Suo Pei looked surprised, the queen's staff had already analyzed all the proposals that the orcs might put forward for him, whether it was to support Hammer Town, attack the wetlands from Arashi south, or whimsically cross the sea to support the continent of Kalimdor, but he never thought that the orcs intended to return to the north.
"Yes, Ambassador of the Undead, the Great Chieftain wants to reclaim the homeland of the Frostwolf Clan, and recently sent a team of scouts to investigate...... It's being overrun by deformed dwarves, and they're even slaughtering precious frostwolves everywhere!" The orcs raged, pounding the table and roaring, "They're slaughtering the precious frostwolves!
Speaking of support, it probably only needs the Forsaken to provide a forward base, which is related to the place where Thrall was born, and the orcs will not let the undead army enter at will...... And about the alpine region of the Alterac Mountains, the queen never had the intention.
And once the Horde's coalition forces get closer to Alterac, it can also deflect some pressure from the Alliance for the Forsaken.
Suo Pei pondered, this seemed to be a win-win situation, "Please allow me to think about it for a moment." ”
Out of diplomatic commitments and the fact that he did not have the relevant authority, Sopei decided to inform his queen of the news first, and by the way, he repeated the orc's request to Loria in lingua franca.
"Hometown? How cheeky do you have to be to call the land occupied by the invasion your hometown?"
Unexpectedly, Loria suddenly jumped up, she yelled like an orc and slammed the negotiating table hard, "Alterac has always belonged to humans! These alien greenskins burn and loot everywhere, occupy our land, leave their ogre accomplices in our homes and slaughter everywhere, and now they still have the face to be angry at a few vicious dogs?"
God knows which nerve Loria was stirred by the news of the orc's intention to invade again, and her sense of racial honor burst out at once.
"There are no humans there anymore anyway...... Only the thunder spear dwarves who helped humans fight back against the orcs back then were left. Completely incomprehensible to Loria's rampage, Suo Pei asked rhetorically, "What does it matter to you whether the dwarves live or die?"
As someone who remembers living in a country that was invaded in turn in the not-so-distant past, that mentality of not giving up an inch of land is always inevitable...... Although Alterac was long since out of human control, this hapless human nation was crushed by orcs even before the invasion of the natural disaster, and the already small population was slaughtered by the wandering orc tribes in years of war to the point of extinction.
"It's not because the already scarce production of Alterac toffee will be even rarer......
Even yelling here will not help, the humans in the south can't even solve their own problems, who will be nosy, and the humans in the north are in the process of extinction, and they can't afford to care who owns the land of a country that has long perished...... Loria is extremely depressed, and her mother has taught her many times that she deserves to be bullied when she is weak...... Especially when your ancestors were once broad, but they were bullied in every way in the near past, you will always be angry.
"Huh......" took a deep breath, Loria tried to calm her feelings, but after a while, she still couldn't help but put down the cruel words towards the orc, "Wait! The era of humanity will eventually come again." ”
"What is this?" the orc envoy looked at the thunderous 'little undead girl' in confusion.
"Lord Regent hates dwarves...... If possible, ask the Tribal Scout to bring her some Alterac toffee. ”
