The latest news from Stormwind City is nothing more than that the new king of Lordaeron and Varian are about to go to Theramore together to discuss the alliance.

Around this incident, people praised the age and ability of Locke, the king, but also doubted. At the same time, the country led by Locke is in a wait-and-see mode, after all, the threat of natural disasters has not been completely resolved, and the old royal capital of Lordaeron and a large area of land in the east are still in the hands of the undead.

The Church of Light in Stormwind City came forward to refute the slander and rumors against Locke, and even Archbishop Benedictas came forward to endorse Locke, saying that he was the savior of mankind...

Of course, no one believed this, and many people only thought that he was trying to win over the rich king, etc.

Locke pulled the parchment roll in his hand, and that's all the information for the past two days. Farther afield, there are palace news and law and order and war. For example, Countess Catlana held a banquet at Stormwind Fortress, inviting members of the noble council to collect money, food, and armament support for the Stormwind Kingdom's army; Countess Katrana held a banquet at the house of the Duke of Vortagen, inviting lieutenant generals to participate in the banquet, which was related to the defense of the kingdom. There will be at least three times a month, and basically all the nobles in the military and political government are covered.

The reason why everyone can accept her is nothing more than her identity as the Presto family, and the identity of Varian's future queen. The main thing is that Varian has never come forward to deny the rumors about her queen, and he rarely comes forward to govern, so everything is slowly seized by Katrana.

Internally and militarily, the Stormwind Kingdom suffered a crushing defeat in the Burning Plains. Due to the lack of military and material support from home, and the fact that the back road of Red Ridge Mountain was cut off by the Blackstone Orcs, the Alliance soldiers of the three legions were scattered, and Marshal Reginald Windsol was also lost in the war.

The lakeside town of Red Ridge Mountain is besieged by a large number of gnolls, and scouts of the Blackstone orcs appear from time to time outside the human fields and settlements, where the situation is precarious.

The threat of the undead in Nightlight is growing, and dark magic torments everyone's nerves. What's even more terrifying is that werewolves and ghouls who feed on human corpses are literally encroaching on human settlements from the perspective of the common people who appear in mythology.

The granary of the West became the Wild West, and the Brotherhood of Defia took complete control of the vast farmlands in this area, and succeeded in turning them into vast pastures....

The frontiers of Stormwind are already in ruins...

The only remaining Elwyn Forest is still full of bandits, and the garrisons are helpless against these cunning enemies...

"If it were in us in Lordaeron," Claire snorted, "I don't think any adults would tolerate such a thing, and General Norris wouldn't ignore it." ”

"It's also a little unbelievable, the situation in the Stormwind Kingdom has reached this point now, and they are still sending troops to the Valley of Thorns?" Claire pulled a pipe out of her pocket and stuffed it with a withered tranquil, "Common sense can't explain this strange situation. ”

"Or is there something there that would put them at risk of being threatened regardless of their territory?"

Locke slowly folded the parchment in his hand and set it aside, Claire in front of him facing him sideways, knocking her legs on the low coffee table beside her.

"What does MI7 say...", leaning back in the high chair, Locke looked at the stack of materials on the table, "I won't be so kind to give you what we need." ”

"How?" Claire squirted, changing her feet to a more comfortable position, "Obviously, Your Majesty." Just as you think, they have a request for us. They want us to deal with this unhealthy trend among the upper nobles of Stormwind. ”

They also tried to find out why the nobles were indifferent, but the investigators either found nothing or disappeared without a trace. Matthias told me that he suspected something was wrong with the countess, but he did not have the support of King Varian to obtain tangible evidence to prove his idea. ”

"Isn't there a question about Chacha Presto's origin?" Locke groaned, supposedly from the source, he could always find out that there was something wrong with Onexia's origin.

Claire spread her hands, "No one has any doubts, people have already seen this countess in the time of King Terenus. She was a young lady at the time..."

That's right, since she dares to appear in front of everyone openly, on the one hand, she, like his father, may unconsciously influence the thinking of others. On the other hand, it is certainly fully prepared ...

Locke thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

Is this a habit of cowardice? Onexia doesn't necessarily have her eyes on me.

But!

Locke felt a little guilty at this time, and Varian's calmness made Locke very embarrassed. Compared with his heroic character, he is a lot of villain, and he has the feeling of spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. He always felt that giving up Varian's safety was unacceptable to him in terms of reason, morality, and faith. If history doesn't repeat itself like it did in the past, and Varian dies, isn't he going to feel guilty for the rest of his life?

But if you don't seize this opportunity, it will be difficult for Lordaeron to develop thoroughly in the past few years. You know, the route you say you take is different from that of today's human countries. Lordaeron has to have the strength to suppress it.

Locke was really in a dilemma, and he had to admit that Varian's charisma affected him. Let him not hesitate to give up the plan he has been planning in his heart for a long time.

After a long silence, Locke, who was in a dilemma, finally let out a long sigh. Although his voice was a little regretful, his expression was much more cheerful, as if his heart was happy.

"Let's put these things aside," Locke tapped his fingers deftly on the table, "just find a few suitable ships that can keep up with King Varian's Lion King's Heart." ”

Claire turned to look at Locke in a little surprise, "Your Majesty, aren't we going with King Varian?" ”

"Go, be sure to go with King Varian." Locke said unquestioningly, "Those ships bring more supplies, and the days at sea are fed up..."

And it may save our lives if necessary, Locke silently added this sentence in his heart.

Claire was gone, and Locke sat alone in the room, watching the flickering candlelight on the tabletop.

Lordaeron's reform model, the human nobles of other kingdoms will definitely not let it be implemented in their own kingdoms. Otherwise, the authority of the nobility will be greatly weakened, and Lordaeron has its own special national conditions to cause the current situation. Even if you want to do it in other kingdoms, many difficulties can make this unrealistic.

In this way, the nobles of Stormwind City don't really want to have a relationship with themselves, and it is probably true to probe their own mouth. Maybe I'm afraid that this kind of reform will spread to this point...

What a stupid bunch of people, Locke shook his head with a smirk.

Looking at this trend, Lordaeron has time for development, and when the future reform is completed, the capital market will teach you old-fashioned aristocrats how to be a nobleman in the new era.

However, now that the decision has been made, it is necessary to assist Varian in the future of the Alliance. Then find a way to break through Onexia's disguise... But as a rule, you need to rescue Windsor from Blackstone Prison, then get the two stone tablets, take them all the way to Stormwind City, epicly expose Onexia's identity, and then Windsol dies.

Now this plot has unfolded, and for some reason, it is not the same as in history. But it's mostly the same, Wendthor is already playing with poop in Blackstone Prison.

But the question is, do I have to go to Blackstone Mountain Prison? Where to go and save Wendsol? Look for the tablet that contains the magic of the dragon's language!

No! Locke thinks there must be a way to expose Onexia without risking his own life!

It will definitely not work to debunk it directly, Varian will definitely not believe that he does not say it, and he will be shocked by this. Onexia is not an undead, and there is no way for her to turn into a dragon in front of everyone! Doing so will make her hide even deeper, and at the same time make herself the first target to remove!

The frequency of Locke's hands tapping on the table gradually slowed down, and he thought carefully about the people he could help in his current situation.

Tell Madias the news? Let his MI7 deal with this problem?

I'm afraid it's difficult, Locke subconsciously shook his head, he couldn't find out the problem of Onyxia for so many years, and Madias and his MI7 should have been targeted by Onyxia. But who can keep an eye on MI7?

Defia Brotherhood!

Van Cleef's Defia Brotherhood! This is the Stormwind Kingdom's wide-ranging bandit organization, and there may be no one but them who can restrain MI7.

Maybe Madias's men, no, his men definitely have Van Cleef's spies. Combined with the fact that he has been inactive for so many years, then telling him this news is equivalent to telling Onexia!

So, I can only think of a way from the country ...

Locke paused for a moment, and he suddenly remembered a man, no, a dragon!

Terri!

Let her go to Blackstone Mountain and rescue Wendsol! With the dragon's sensitivity to the Dragon's Magic Slate, she was sure she would be able to find it!

But the problem is that she's not here right now, and she won't be able to come for a while. She stayed in the city of Eva and lived there as a human being. I just wrote a letter to the past, and it probably took a few days to receive it. When she is contacted, it will take a lot of time for her to go to the prison in Blackstone Mountain to find Wendsol and Slate....

The main thing is that there are black dragons in the black stone.

Onexia's elder brother Nefarian, and the little red dragon Valastaz, the consort of the Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa... There's also a twisted black dragon and other aberrant dragons hiding there.

What if she finds out about this, sneaks in on a whim, and gets caught? You know, it is almost a common thing for dragons acting alone to be captured in Azeroth. And the blue dragons seem to be all scum...

And not only does Nefarian not have a decent spouse yet, he also likes to turn his relatives into aberrant monsters through experiments.

Let me think....

It's unrealistic to let domestic people come over, this is Stormwind City. If it's just to save Wendthall, finding those two stone slabs isn't a big problem, as long as it doesn't attract the attention of the upper echelons of the Blackstone Tower...
