Everything was like an illusion, and the next moment Locke appeared in the middle of the altar, his hand still in the same way that he had just touched the silver hand.

The cogs clicked again, and the massive silver hand began to shrink downwards and become smaller and smaller, until it eventually floated in front of Locke as a glittering two-handed warhammer.

Perhaps it has something to do with what Locke had in mind, the hammer head is inscribed with the image of Tyre fighting two Crassis, and the hammer head is not like a battle hammer, but more like a symbolic sacrificial hammer.

"You've earned the approval of the Holy Hammer," Old Tawad sighed as he stepped forward to look at it, "I've only seen its description in the records of our Tyr Guards. It seems to be a powerful artifact. ”

"I hope you can use it for the benefit of mankind, instead of using it for evil...."

Without waiting for Locke to reply, there was a rumbling sound in the cavern deep in the hall, and the sound of the lake pouring back came from the depths of the earth.

"Let's go! It's time for us to go! Old Tawad listened with a serious expression, "The lake above us is starting to pour in, maybe in a few minutes, maybe half an hour to flood the hall where we are standing now..."

Thundered!!

Crackling!

The hall shook suddenly, and pieces of rubble and dust fell from the top wall of the hall!

"Looks like I miscalculated!" Old Tawad urged as he shouted, "Removing the silver hand will cause the structure of this hall to collapse completely!" Let's get out quickly! ”

Just as Locke and the others were about to flee the collapsing hall, the dwarf Black Flame stopped everyone.

"Hey, hey, hey! Are you ignoring me, the great wizard? The dwarf pulled out the teleportation scroll from his body, and he slowly unfolded it as he smiled, "I knew it would come in handy." ”

"Come and stand around me!" A light blue glow appeared on the gnome's hands, "Although I am not a full-time space wizard, teleportation spells are a compulsory course for every wizard!" ”

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up! The sharp-eyed Locke had already seen the cave they had come out of the ground, and there were already traces of water tumbling out of it. At that rate, the lake would be filled in less than five minutes!

Bang! There was a loud bang overhead, and huge gears and stones around it fell in pieces and smashed into the crowd. Locke didn't even think about raising the silver hand in his hand!

From the top of the warhammer, a semicircular shield envelops the crowd inside the shield! Perhaps worried that Locke's shield wasn't strong enough, Demytia also tried to use the Dark Blade in his hand to add another layer of shadow shield. However, her worries are obviously unnecessary.

The gears and boulders smashed into the shield of light and sank into a recess inside the shield, before being bounced off the rest of the hall by the massive force of the recoil.

The lake that tumbled from the cavern on the ground floor filled the bottom of the altar almost instantly, and Locke could see schools of trout jumping on the surface of the muddy water and rushing into the inside of the passage.

"Stand firm! Close your eyes! Black Flame snapped a few words, and a series of incantations quickly recited from his mouth, and patches of blue light appeared under everyone's feet and seeped into everyone's body.

White light replaced the blue magic, and in Locke's last open eyes, he saw all the load-bearing pillars in the hall collapsing one by one as the lake washed away. The turbulent water of the lake is surging with mud and stones, and the white light is completely lit up at the critical moment...

The song of birds and the fresh smell of the forest crept into Locke's nose, and he opened his eyes suddenly, and at the top of the forest in the distance, the sky lit up with a faint glow of golden sunlight.

The newborn sun is about to rise again in the east.

They came out of the ground.

Locke looked around, a humble camp hidden in the grass. Next to it is the huge lake above the tomb of Tyre. But at this moment, the center of the lake was boiling, and the huge upside-down whirlpool made a huge hole in the center of the lake, and the rumbling sound kept passing from there.

This night... It's been a fulfilling life...

Locke shook his head with a wry smile, everything that happened below seemed to be like the path that Elune had arranged for herself. If she didn't come to inspect the west, would she use other methods to let herself come here to take these two weapons and solve the troubles here?

Coming out of the cemetery, Locke's identity quickly shifted from being an adventurer to being a kingdom administrator.

Contact the Iron Guard who remained in Twilight's Hammer to erase the camp's existence. Locke took everyone down the mountain, contacted the Security Bureau, and asked them to send men over, preferably in Quiet Town, to closely monitor and arrest the cultists who came here to find the Elder Gods!

Locke and them are enemies, and there is no possibility of reconciliation. Naturally, how vicious and how to deal with the enemy. Locke hopes to use the apparent calm here to attract more Twilight cultists to come and catch all the cultists hidden in Lordaeron and even within humanity!

By the time dawn was complete, Locke had already appeared in the lobby of the inn in Quiet Town. I chatted casually with Brill, the niece of Viscount Quart, who was a little regretful, and diligently diligently greeted her. In the latter's somewhat reluctant and helpless eyes, Locke led everyone out of Quiet Town.

Locke didn't know how the Security Service, under Noris's leadership, functioned. But the order was given to her when she first came out of the tomb of Tyr, but at this moment, the fortress at the entrance of Tranquility Town has changed inside and out.

From the stonemasons who repair the stone walls, the commoners who carry the stones, to the positive and negative employees who oversee the work. The entrance to the fortress where Locke passed yesterday completely changed everyone. Not only that, but in the humble camp outside the fortress, Locke also saw Norris in disguise... Hmm, she's just dressed as a Ranger...

Her elven face cannot be hidden, but she can make up for other elves. If it weren't for some of her behavioral habits, as well as the fact that she deliberately asked herself to find out about this matter, Locke wouldn't know it was her.

"I've brought two hundred elite agents to hide here, and Quiet Town will later serve as a branch of the Security Service in this area. There will be a large number of people living here in the way that the inhabitants of this place live. Not far from here, at the Lecado crossing, Captain Durand will draw a wing from Gallon to take our command in the name of maintaining local order. ”

"The message of the evil god has been told to our wizards, and there will be wizards' monitoring towers in Quiet Town and the ruins to monitor for possible anomalies in this area."

Nollis stroked her long blonde hair, she glanced at Locke, who was trying to step forward and kick her more, and took a step back and took out a letter covered with fire paint and handed it to him.

"The ruler of Theramore, Gianna Proudmoor, decided to convene a summit of the leaders of the Alliance and the Horde during the harvest month, the second month of this year's harvest season. The letter arrived in Iva last evening. ”

"It's less than three months away, and it's up to you to decide whether to go or not, so you'd better make your decision quickly. The rest of your staff suggests that you go to Stormwind and join Varian there for this meeting," Norris paused, her eyes squinting at Locke, "but I personally suggest that you be crowned King of Lordaeron before you go to this meeting." ”

"It's a stabilizing effect for the country, it's a constraint for Kalia, it's enough respect for you for the Alliance, and it's for the tribe to remember you."

Locke didn't tear open the letter in a hurry, put away the letterhead, sat down on a chair in the big tent and asked, "How is the security bureau's arrangement in the Stormwind Kingdom?" ”

"The whip can't reach it," Nollis walked to the rudimentary wooden table, picked up the red wine on the table, poured a glass and handed it to Locke, "They are lurking, and they can only gather some information. ”

Taking a sip of red wine, Norris shrugged her shoulders, "MI7 is not as simple as you think, strictly speaking, they have a longer history than us. My approach to expansion and management is very similar to that of MI7. ”

"However, I have also established an office in the Stormwind Kingdom in your name. It was used externally to recruit soldiers for Lordaeron to go north to fight the undead, and secretly to gather information on Stormwind. MI7's Madiassholl is a smart guy and he didn't debunk us. On the contrary, they often exchange information with us. ”

"You've set up a recruiting office in the Stormwind Kingdom?!" Locke asked in surprise, why didn't I know about this all along?

"This kind of thing has to be prepared in advance, every time you just move your mouth, and we people are going to break our legs! And, many of your decisions need to be further improved! Norris said viciously, "I was already planning this when you said a few years ago that you were going to recruit soldiers from other races. ”

"After we became independent from the Crusaders, I arranged for agents to set up offices in Ironforge and Stormwind Kingdom to gather intelligence. Of course, they are also only offices, not official embassies in Lordaeron. ”

Locke scratched his head, he hadn't thought of it. But yes, this is also a way for Lordaeron to gain sympathy for the miserable takeaway and poor sales. At the very least, it can make the people of the other kingdoms understand that Lordaeron is no longer the same as it used to be.

"Stormwind and Ironforge agreed to let you do this?" Locke asked hesitantly.

Especially in the Stormwind Kingdom, this could be that Onexia is in power, and she will allow Lordaeron to establish an official establishment in the Stormwind Kingdom? This is not in line with the chaotic and evil nature of her past!

"I'm not a big fan of dwarves, but the dwarves of Ironforge are supportive of Lordaeron's determination." "King Copperbeard has sent us more than fifty blacksmiths to support us in our fight against the undead. If it weren't for the fact that they themselves also had to deal with the war with the Black Iron Dwarves, they would probably have sent troops over. ”

"As for the Stormwind Kingdom," said Norris, with some confusion, "we've encountered some resistance, and their Council of Nobles has split over the matter. Some people think that we are an illegitimately regime and preach that we are enemies. Most of these people were nobles and their representatives who had migrated from Lordaeron. On the contrary, the local nobles of the Stormwind Kingdom were very supportive of our actions, and in the end, with their support, our office sign was passed by the nobles' council. ”

？？！

Now Locke was a little surprised, Onyxia didn't have any obstruction in this?!

What kind of medicine is she selling in her gourd? It's not the same as the one I know!!
