Early morning snowflakes flutter and fall on the ivy-covered awnings. It doesn't snow often in East Lordaeron, and it shouldn't snow so early.

Bordering Quel'Thalas, the High Elves' super-massive climate spell that keeps the Eternal Song Forest eternal in all seasons has had a significant impact on the climate of Eastern Lordaeron.

The most intuitive change is that although the increase in temperature is not noticeable, some wild crops that have been harvested once a year to three times in two years have become at least three crops in two years, and some even have two crops a year - of course, this change is not felt by humans who have only settled here for more than a thousand years, after all, the spell has been in effect since 6,800 years ago.

Otherwise, the Stratholme region, which has a limited area of reclamation, would not be able to become the second largest grain producer in the kingdom comparable to the Andohar region. In addition to meeting local needs, it can also be exported to the kingdoms of Alterac, Stormgard and Gilness.

Bridget Abydis sighed and said, "I'm afraid this winter will be exceptionally cold." ”

During the battle with Warimas, Oryx was severely injured in both hands and legs, with a fractured wrist bone and a fractured tibia, and is now splint, unable to take care of himself.

The person who took care of him every day except for her own servant was Miss Bridget.

Break free from the Lich King's soul cage under the light of the Holy Light, and defeat the Dreadlord with the gift of the Light, which even legendary paladins will not be able to defeat...... All kinds of miracles made this stupid girl who was extremely devout in her faith think of him as a real saint.

He couldn't say anything about it.

"Winter is coming...... "The Hand of the King, Oryx, stretched out his immobile right hand forward, allowing the snowflakes to fall on the back of his hand and turn into droplets.

As far as the eye can see, the seasonal flowers and plants in the garden have withered, and the cold wind blows, which is quite depressing.

Click, click......

The heavy sound of armor clashing against each other came from the depths of the garden, coming from the royal guards on patrol.

In the aftermath of the Steinbrad incident, Arthas was shocked by Nasrezm's vicious intentions in trying to occupy Oryx, and immediately sent a group of skilled royal guards to protect him from happening again.

The mages under the command of Lady Jandis Barov have also laid out a large number of defensive spells to detect demons. Rivendell Manor is now a barrel of iron, even more secure than the royal palace before the assassination of the King and Queen.

At that time, the Lich King's servants were able to successfully assassinate the king because of their calculations and unintentionalities, and the Assassin also controlled the necromantic power that even Dalaran was not familiar with.

Thanks to the investigation and research of the Scourge Legion during this time, Dalaran, who gathered the top mages of the Seven Kingdoms, developed a large number of spells that can counter necromantic magic. If the Cursed Sect tries to do anything to the palace or Orix again, it will definitely go home.

In the same way, the nobility of the kingdom also strengthened their own protection. After all, it is terrible to be occupied by Nasrezm and to do things that harm the people and the country without his own will.

"What's new today?" Oryx asked.

As the Hand of the King recuperating from his injuries at home, he still needs to be well-informed. With Dalaran's help, Lordaeron followed the example of Quel'Salas in the north and built a well-established network of magical teleportation.

Messages from all over the kingdom no longer need to be transmitted through extremely inefficient means such as carrier pigeons and griffin transmissions, and can be delivered directly to the king and his desk directly through the hands of the mage.

Bridget would make a summary every day, and then tell it to Oryx when she pushed him out for a walk. Although a lot of the information inside is classified, she is not an outsider either.

Bridget pulled a blanket from the storage bag in the back of the wheelchair and draped it over him, saying, "The Cursed Cult still hasn't moved, and after the Steinbled incident, they really seem to have disappeared completely." ”

Since the Hand of the King is recuperating at home, the current purge of the Cursed Sect in the country is carried out by Alexandros Mograini and his fellow Silver Hand colleagues in cooperation with Dalaran. He has been monitoring vital food sales networks throughout the kingdom to put an end to the prophesied plague that would spread through food.

"It is said that Dalaran found that Northrend's ...... Ai Tak - Niraba? Hmm, what's it called? Bridget struggled as she spoke.

"Eldraine-Nirub of the Spider Kingdom?" Oryx wrapped the blanket tightly around her and carefully pushed Bridget against the armrest of her wheelchair, her hand red from the cold.

"Yes, that's it. Dalaran discovers that the Spider Demon's Underground Kingdom has completely fallen, and the Clan has become slaves of the Lich King. According to their speculation, the Lich King may have taken full control of the Northrend underground network, which originally belonged to the Spider Demons, which is very different from the previous speculation that he only controlled Icecrown. ”

Oryx nodded, "That's right. Thanks to the Spider Demon, the Lich King actually controls more land than it seems. However, the spider demon has not been wiped out, and there are still some survivors who are resisting. ”

"What kind of creature are spider demons?" Bridget asked curiously.

"Just think of it as a big spider," Oryx said with a smile, "16,000 years ago, when there was only one continent in the whole world. The awakened Khasis General Kirkis has set off a war and summoned all the remnants of the sleeping Dark Empire in an attempt to lead the Yakhi Worms to invade the world and welcome their master's return. The Arqui Worms have been defeated by the Trolls, and the Spider Demons are a descendant of the Yakini Worms who have fled to the north and have abandoned their dark beliefs......"

Oryx tells the story, giving Bridget a grand picture of the war that had been fought thousands of years ago. From the trolls uniting under the command of the Zandalar clan in danger to scattering around the world after the war, it also explains the horrors of the Faceless Ones of Krasis and the Dark Empire created by their masters, the Elder Gods, eons ago......

Bridget was dumbfounded, "You know so much, I never knew about these things...... What are you doing? ”

As she spoke, Oryx was trying to remove the splint from his hand.

"You're not well, says Archbishop Benedictas, and you'll have to recuperate for at least a month." She was worried.

As the Steinbled incident revealed the horror of Nasrezm, Dalaran was not at ease with Archbishop Benedictas of the Church of the Holy Light, who was sailing north. If Nasrezm were to attack the influential archbishop, it would be in trouble.

So the mages located the archbishop's ship, teleported it directly, and brought the people back to the north to be closely protected.

The voyage, which had taken more than a month, was much shortened, and after contacting the kings and learning about the Scourge Legion, the archbishop set out with his entourage to Rivendell, the Earldom of Rivendell, to be exact, to meet with Oryx.

It was a very good meeting.

It was many years before the archbishop succumbed to the Elder Gods and became the Father Twilight placed at the heart of the Alliance by the dark forces, and it was still very good. He was very similar to his mentor, Alonthos Fao, the previous archbishop of the Church of the Light. It is like in every way, kind, pious, and extraordinary......

It is simply the embodiment of virtue.

He was a man of Uther's generation, and although he was just over middle age, he was also very intelligent, and he made a good impression on Oryx.

After a long talk, the two chatted very speculatively. The archbishop affirmed him as a saint and his efforts to fight evil, and even asked him if he would be interested in serving as the archbishop of the diocese of the kingdom of Lordaeron.

It's an honor.

Oryx politely refused, just the affairs of the King's Hand had already kept him busy, and he really didn't want to take on any more heavy responsibilities.

Benedictas assured that the spot would remain for him and treated his injury before leaving. Drove all the evil energy that would have taken a long time to dissipate from his body, and made his recovery speed much faster.

In a word......

Oryx has a really good impression of Benedictas.

However, he also understood that there is no record in the canon of when this man fell.

Although it is very likely that Benedictas came into contact with the power of the ancient gods when the nightmare crisis came, and did not completely fall until the cataclysm, but the stakes are very high, and a small probability event cannot be ignored, so he still added a few embankments to this archbishop.

"I think I'm going to be fine." Despite persuasion, Oryx had already removed the splints on his hands, raised them to his eyes for a moment, and then began to remove the splints on both legs, and finally stood up with the wheelchair.

Bridget hurriedly walked around to the front to help.

didn't take two steps, as soon as Oryx's legs were weak, he threw himself on someone's chest and came to a fragrant rabbit, making the other party blush.

"Let's go, let's go to the barracks." Oryx said with a neatly dressed face, not blushing, and without a heartbeat.

In the past ten days, his popularity has grown.

I heard that the saints were forming a private army, and a large number of noble children who had been practicing martial arts since childhood came here.

Because everyone knows that although the private army is called the private army, the selfless saints must lead the troops into the front line of the fight against evil. Heroes emerge in troubled times, and it is time to make contributions and interpret true glory.

Oryx alone knows about Reynaud Mograini and his childhood friend Sally Whitemayne - both of whom were sent by Alexandros Mograini, who had been subdued by Oryx in the Battle of Steinbrad;

Marlan, one of the four beauties of the Scarlet Universe, a member of the Order of the Silver Hand, who was no less than Brigitte, had come to enlist as an officer;

Demidia, one of the four beauties of the Scarlet, although she is young, is a skilled priest who volunteers to join the Saints' troops as a chaplain to contribute to the fight against evil......

Orix was really impressed by these names, and always felt that he had obviously not taken the path of collecting and cultivating, but the four beauties of Scarlet had collected them unconsciously.

Of course, in addition to the four beauties of blood, there are still many other noble children.

The surrounding nobles also sent help, some sent skilled blacksmiths to help his private army build armaments, some sent a large number of fine metal ingots, and even some nobles who directly moved the armaments into boxes......

Tyran Ferdin, the son of Tirio Ferdin, who had inherited the Valley of the Hearth, also arrived. He had just been baptized as a paladin and joined the Knights of the Silver Hand, not to enlist, but to send a number of instructors to help Orix train recruits.

In short, almost no money was spent, and most of the formation of the territory's private army was completed by virtue of the name of the saint. Not only 3,000 sets of armaments have been settled. The number of applicants is far more than this number, and the barracks are conducting a selection and merit-based admission in the past few days.

If you can save Lordaeron, if you can keep the Scourge out of Eastern Lordaeron, then the land of Stratholme is the basic plate of Orrix. And these 3,000 soldiers with an extremely high starting point are the cornerstone of his basic plate.
