Chapter 531: The Wall of McGreain and Fort Riptide
Gilneth was once a member of the Alliance, but after the Orc War, Gilne's king, Jean McGregorn, tried to refuse to share the cost of building the Orc Concentration Camp and wanted to gain jurisdiction over the Alterac Valley. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the following year, Gene McGreine began to build the Wall of Greymane, which initially did not seem to be completely cut off from Gilneys, and King Gene McGreyen seemed to have attended the baptismal celebration of Arthas when he became a paladin, but when the plague of the dead broke out, the Wall of Greymane was completely closed, and even the smuggling caravans, which had been officially assumed by default, were cut off.
However, the construction of this wall was not so smooth sailing, and Gene McGrein gave up all the territory of the Silver Pine Forest in order to build it, among which the territory of the pro-Alliance noble, Lord Darius Crowley, was completely divided outside the wall of McGreen.
A series of events led directly to the rebellion of Lord Darius Crowley, who led the people who had also lost their land and homes to rise up and vow to overthrow the tyranny of Jean Greymayne.
These rebels who rebelled because of the Greymane Wall became known as the 'Northgate Rebels', and to this day, they continue to devastate the whole of Gilneis.
"Actually, there is a hole in this wall. Benny looked at the towering walls behind him. "I don't know where, but some Night Elves got into Gilneth through these loopholes. ”
"You know a lot about Gilneis?" Quel'Salas didn't know much about Gilnes, there wasn't even any direct contact between the two, and Sylvanas didn't know much about the country that had enclosed itself behind the walls.
"Of the seven kingdoms of the human race, apart from Stormwind City, there is only Gilneth left. "Humans always seem to be divided and merged, and Benny's previous life was no exception. "Gilneth is directly on our border, and no matter what happens in it, even if we don't care, we have to be prepared not to threaten us, so I have studied them a bit, and Lordaeron has left a lot of information about Gilneth as well. ”
"How long can you protect them with just one wall?" Quel'Salas's once-powerful magical barrier was swept down by Arthas, and the wall seemed to be majestic and strong, but Sylvanas now had at least five ways to completely destroy it in a single day.
"The wall did serve some purpose in the early days of the Plague of the Undead, but that's about it. Benny looked at the forest in front of him, it should be the 'North Gate Forest', and if you go through this forest along the mainland, there will be a small town, and to the east of the town is the church district of Gilneth City, which is the goal of their trip.
"Let's go. Benny handed Sylvanas a necklace, changing form after a burst of blue light, and the two of them headed south along the deserted road.

Stratholme, Town Hall.
"Gone?" Kael'thas and the Prophet looked at each other, both shaking their heads helplessly. "He really doesn't have the slightest sense of a leader. ”
"The Outlands Graveyard Project has been put in the hands of Tirio, and the High Lord has left a letter for the two of them. Gavinrad handed over the letter, and Kael'thas looked at the Naru sigil left by Benny and opened the scroll.
"Look at it. Kael'thas handed the scroll to the Prophet.
"It seems that this is a deliberate decision of his, and it seems that all we can do is wait. "The Prophet Velons always maintained a smile that seemed to have remained unchanged for thousands of years.
Kael'thas nodded, Benny seems to have deliberately chosen to travel when the 'Dawn Light' is about to overhaul, in his words, he needs a completely clear mind to ensure that he doesn't come with a hot brain when making major decisions, Darlooney and his party have given him too much inspiration and shock, he needs some time and a quiet environment to sort out these things.
"The High Lord also asked me to give this to you, Your Majesty Kael'thas. Gavinrad pulled out a crystal. "According to the High Lord, there is some 'knowledge' you want on it. ”
"Oh?" Kael'thas eyes lit up, wasn't the knowledge he wanted ------ the arcane truth about the Titans, and he was a little eager to find out the truth that Quel'Thalas had pursued for nearly 10,000 years.
"Let's go meet the two elders of Dalooni first. The Prophet smiled.
"Archbishop Molotis and Master Elantis have followed the personnel of the Ministry of Construction to Fort Rapids in the Arathi Heights, two -----"
"Just go there. The Prophet nodded. "As a guest. ”
Kael'thas had some regrets to put the crystal in his pocket, this matter is indeed very important, these Daruni will also be a member of the 'Dawn Light', it is necessary for them to talk face-to-face, Kael'thas is also very curious about the arcane master of the other world, compared to him will have a unique understanding of the arcane.
"We've used ethereal technology to build a permanent portal to Riptide Castle that we can pass through. Gavinrad leaned sideways and made a gesture of please. "Fort Riptide was being built faster than we thought, but it was a bit of trouble to clear out the bandits inside----- the Syndicate had taken over it, and we had a lot more resistance than expected. ”
"Syndicate------" Kael'thas muttered. "Those former rebels?"
The Syndicate is a criminal organization formed after the Second Orc War, and most of its members are nobles from the Kingdom of Alterac, during the Second Orc War, the Kingdom of Alterac betrayed the alliance and fell into the arms of the tribe, and after the defeat of the tribe, the alliance exiled all the nobles of the kingdom of Alterac.
In order to make a living, the nobles of Alterac gradually gathered together and formed a syndicate, an organization dominated by thieves and bandits.
This organization grew very rapidly, and in the Hillsbrad region, they once controlled the agricultural trade in the Hillsbrad Hills, the Andoral District, Dalaran and even the Lordammere Lake region, becoming the local trade oligarchs, and the Syndicate became a huge economic monopoly organization, and the growing power made some former nobles even begin to dream of restoring the country.
However, the outbreak of natural disasters and plagues disrupted the Syndicate's plans, and the establishment and development of the 'Dawn Light' made them completely lose control of the Hillsbrad Hills, and they had no choice but to retreat to the Arathi Heights, believing that the 'Dawn Light' hand could not be stretched for so long.
"Benny hasn't dealt with them yet?"
"The High Lord doesn't think they pose much of a threat. ”
The establishment of the Ministry of Commerce has put all large-scale commercial transactions under the absolute control of the 'Dawn Light', so Benny doesn't think that these bandits can make any waves, so he doesn't make a big fanfare to exterminate them, and if he loses his interests, this organization that grew out of interests will naturally disappear, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"They numbered more than 10,000 people in the Arathi Heights, and they caused some minor trouble for our army------ just a minor problem. Gavinrad smiled and led Kael'thas and the Prophet through the portal.
