Following.

Yesterday it was still a beautiful day, but after a night, it was a change.

The storm at sea came without warning, making it dark and dreary outside, and the hurricane rolled up huge waves and crashed on the banks of Theramore, stirring up countless white bubbles, which receded again and again, and so on.

Several large ships docked at the dock were constantly rocking and jolting, not to mention the smaller civilian ships.

Without the boats, even the streets with Theramore were deserted, and not only were there no pedestrians on the streets, but most of the shops were too lazy to open their doors.

"It's a good day...... Varian said, looking out the window. A bolt of lightning flashed across his face, and the two scars stood out.

For the sake of fairness, Gianna arranged all the people representing the alliance in a small building to the east of her residence.

Compared with the bleak wind and rain outside, the atmosphere in the living room is still very good.

Thea is playing chess with Anduin. Valera and Broll are playing darts. Salges happily poured his glass of spirits.

Varian felt as if he was alone with nothing to do.

"Hey, Your Majesty, why don't you have a drink?" Salgers raised his glass at him.

"Nope." Varian waved his hand, "I don't want to go to talk to Thrall drunk. ”

"Haha!" Salgers laughed merryly, "You're not blessed. ”

Thea looked up at Varian, knowing in her heart that the man was a little irritable right now.

She glanced at the chessboard and smiled softly, "Anduin, you're going to lose!" ”

Varian walked behind Anduin with interest. Anduin looked at the chessboard in distress and pondered.

"You should learn to make trade-offs, Anduin." Wari took his pawn and stepped forward with peace of mind.

"But, my queen! Father! Anduin muttered dissatisfied. (The "Queen" is the most powerful piece on the chess board)

Sia smiled and moved forward. "There are no regrets~! Ate it. Her hand gently lifted the white queen.

Varian triumphantly waited for her step and pushed the white cart forward, "General! ”

Thea bit her lip and looked at him with slight disgust. "I throw in the towel!"

"yes. Dad, you're awesome! Andul looked at his father adoringly with excitement.

"That's natural!" Varian said pretending to be reserved, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of smugness.

"You father and son...... Cheating! Thea pretended to be dissatisfied, and said, "I was going to win." ”

"Then let's have another game!" Anduin sorted out the chess pieces and said earnestly. "This time I promise not to let my dad interfere."

Listened to this sentence. Thea and Varian met their eyes and smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty......" Gianna's most trusted advisor, Egwene, walked in. Orgrimmar's ship is here. Lady Gianna has gone to meet Chief Sal, and I have come to invite you to the central hall. ”

"Okay, let's go right away!" Varian replied.

"Your Majesty......" Egwen glanced at Salameni, the saber at Varian's waist. Neither side of the talks will carry weapons, as was said at the outset. ”

"Oh, I know. I'll give it to Gianna over there. Varian said nonchalantly. And, I don't think the orcs are necessarily going to go without weapons. ”

Egwen chuckled, "Chief Thrall is a respectable orc, and he always keeps his promises. However, since His Majesty insisted. It's the same when you get there and unload it. ”

Varian glanced around his companions. Valera, Broll, and Salgers were all ready to go, and even Anduin followed him early with a look of eagerness.

Only Thea was still standing at the table.

He walked over to Thea and whispered in her ear, "Not going? ”

"Well, I guess I'd better not go." Thea replied as she looked down at the chessboard on the table.

"It's okay...... wait for me to come back." Varian put his arm around Thea's shoulders. "Then we'll go back to Stormwind."

"Okay."

Watching Varian and the others walk out of the room in turn, Xia walked to the window, it was raining heavily outside, and Varian and his group could be seen wearing cloaks and walking towards the central conference hall.

Looking up, in the western direction, a huge goblin airship leaned against the tower on the west side. The airship has a striking red tribal insignia on it.

The raindrops outside were terrifyingly large, and Thea couldn't make out the figure coming down from the airship.

She stood for a moment. Then he sat back down at the table and began to put together the chess pieces.

Xu was absent-minded, Xia made a mistake, and a chess piece rolled to the ground.

Xia hurriedly picked it up, and it was a white piece. She looked at it, then smiled and sighed softly. Swing it back to its original position, the fourth cell in the bottom row. on a white checker.

Can you really go back to Stormwind?

Thea looked out the window, the sky was gloomy with wind and rain, lightning and thunder.

She silently clasped her hands together.

"Sal, nice to meet you." Gianna was relieved to see that her old friend had not disappointed her in the end, and the smile on her face bloomed. On such a rainy day, it makes people feel that the sun is shining.

"I'd like to introduce you, my partner today." Thrall walked over to Gianna and turned around and pointed at the tribesmen who had stepped off the airship behind him.

"Garrosh."

The brown-skinned, tall orc glared disdainfully, glanced at Gianna, and walked to Thrall's side.

"Envoy of the Forsaken, Queen's warrior - General Blightless."

North's turquoise eyes fluttered, and he smiled and saluted Gianna.

"The new envoys of the Blood Elves, Countess Liadline and Viscount Alex."

Liadline tilted her head slightly, the Blood Elves' sensitivity to spells made her immediately realize the extraordinary attainments of the human woman in front of her. She smiled politely and bowed slightly. And Alex behind her

But he carefully looked at Gianna from head to toe, especially when his gaze hovered in a few specific places for a long time.

Seeing that Gianna was almost annoyed, Sal also clenched his fist to his lips and coughed a low voice in displeasure.

Liadline silently stomped on Alex's foot under the cover of her cloak.

Before Alex instinctively called out, Liadline turned to him and smiled. "Gone, Alex."

The smile was so good that Alex forgot about the pain. "Yes......" he followed Liadline out of the airship, muttering softly, "It's still far worse than Liadrin......" He touched his chin with interest, his eyes looking at him in thought...... There's still a gap in size, but sure enough, it's Liadrin-sama who wins!

Liadrin's long ears twitched slightly, angry and funny. She glanced sideways at Alex, "What are you thinking, hurry up!" ”

The leaders of the Horde and the Alliance met in the hallways of the Central Hall.

Gianna hurried a few steps and stood between them.

"King Varian, let me introduce you, Grand Chief of the Tribe, Thrall!"

Varian's gaze locked on Thrall like an eagle's eye, and Thrall looked at him with determination.

Gianna had a headache, but she was relieved that both sides still had some restraint after all.

"I invite both of you to come for the benefit of both of us, and to negotiate our differences peacefully and in the spirit of reciprocity. As a sign of good faith, I ask both of you to temporarily store your weapons with me before entering the council chamber. ”

As she said this, Varian unconsciously grabbed the hilt of Sarameny's sword at his waist. Thrall's reaction was similar, the orc's thick fingers gently rubbing against Orgrimmar's hammer.

The leaders on both sides did not react, and the entourage behind them naturally did not move.

Gianna couldn't help but be a little secretly anxious.

God knows how much time they're going to waste on these things, but she knows she must not rush either side, she's a neutral mistress at the moment.

Just when she was helpless, a childish voice sounded.

"Father! Chief Sal! For the sake of peace during the talks, please lay down your arms. Anduin stepped forward, took out the small sword at his waist and placed it on the ground, and when he had done this, he retreated behind his father.

Thrall's eyes froze, then smiled. "Looks like we've got a little diplomat between us!" He quipped.

Varian looked at his son with pride, and was extremely proud of his son's humble and arrogant performance.

He untied Salamoni from his belt, and almost at the same time, Thrall removed his black hammer, the Hammer of Orgrimmar.

With the leader's statement, the people behind also handed over their weapons one after another.

"What's your name, little one?" Sal asked, looking at Anduin.

"Anduin. Ureon. King Varian of Stormwind. Son of Wrynn. Anduin said loudly, holding his head up.

"Very well, little one, your father will be proud of you." Sal laughed.

"Alright, distinguished guests, let's stop standing here and talking." Gianna also lowered her staff, walked between the two, and patted the shoulders of the two leaders affectionately with both hands. "Let's go in and have a good talk...... For the peace and interests of both of us. ”

At her invitation, Varian and Thrall glanced at each other, then slowly followed her into the hall.

"Noth......" Liadline patted Nathanos on the shoulder, gesturing at the longbow he was carrying. What do you think, so distracted. ”

North smiled, untied his longbow, and handed it over to the guards for safekeeping. "Nothing!"

Hearing this obviously perfunctory answer, Liadlin didn't do anything, but Alex, who was beside her, secretly rolled her eyes.

Nathanos obviously looked wrong when he saw the Varian King of the Alliance, and he deliberately took a step back, flashing behind the tall Garrosh.

There must be something wrong with this...... Alex twitched at the corners of his mouth.
