"To cut a long story short, we all have limited time. What's more, meeting with me will make you extremely nervous..."As soon as Locke's words ended, Aiden was directly interrupted by Locke just as he wanted to say something, "Lord Aiden, we are all the same kind of people, please don't say any more polite words." ”

Faced with Locke's strength, Aiden could only smile wryly and shrug his shoulders.

Then, Locke looked at the three of them and said frankly, "I have no intention of pursuing the mistakes that the Alterac Kingdom has committed, and in fact I have no right to pursue them, I cannot represent the Alliance." ”

After a pause, Locke realized that his words didn't excite them or anything. Aiden and the three of them looked at him in silence, and Locke thought for a moment and said, "As for the Alliance's judgment of the lords of the Alterac Kingdom, to be honest, I have no objection. At the time, it seemed that your behavior was completely self-inflicted. ”

"Yes, we admit it," Bev said unceremoniously as she took Locke's words before her father, "but that's all in the past, and we've paid a great price for it, and the kingdom of Alterac has perished for it." Now we just want to get back the land that belongs to us, that's all. ”

"Oh? Is it? Collusion with orcs to betray the alliance, such a big thing will be easily forgotten? Locke looked at Aiden, he just smiled helplessly and didn't answer Locke's words, Locke had to look at Bev, "You took advantage of the Alliance's lack of time to take care of you now, and robbed the land of Alterac that had been sealed to other lords. What does this mean for the Alliance? I think you should know. Of course, it has nothing to do with me, at least for the time being, because the current Lordaeron is not the Lordaeron of the past. ”

"But, after all, I'm a Lordaeron!" Locke looked at Bev with a glittering gaze, "I have a responsibility and obligation to uphold Lordaeron's past decisions!" Do you understand? Ms. Beve? ”

"Then why did you come to us again?" Not to be outdone, Bev looked directly into Locke's eyes, "You can completely ignore us and send your army to destroy us!" ”

"Beve!" Aiden finally couldn't take it anymore, and he scolded his daughter in a stern tone. "Before I speak, shut your mouth!"

Facurrest, who was transparent on the side, looked at the old man in surprise, remembering that it was the first time he had such a verbal attitude towards his daughter. With the intention of watching the play, he silently watched how the play below would develop.

Bev turned to look angrily at his father, whose cold face was still as cold as ever.

"You're not the master of the Pernord family yet! It's not your turn to decide what I'm going to do here!! Aiden let out a long breath, the folds on his forehead were piled together and trembled slightly, and his tone became steady, "Go on, Master Harvey and I have something very important to discuss, related to the future of our family. ”

Beve, dressed in a black robe, looked at his father for a moment, then turned to Locke apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Harvey, please forgive me for being impulsive." I think you can understand the feelings of a woman who has lost her country. ”

Locke didn't know what the conflict between father and daughter was, but he admired Beve's patience. Just now, when she was scolding herself, she still looked like she was striking. Normal people would feel angry when they were scolded by their father in front of outsiders, but this woman returned to normal in an instant, and apologized to herself in a low voice.

This woman should be put under the watchful eye of the Security Bureau!

"I understand very well, when Lordaeron was attacked by the undead and the royal capital, I was in the same mood as you." Locke looked like I understood.

When Bev left, Aiden turned to Facurrest with a smile and said, "What do you want to say to Lord Harvey about the Arathi Heights?" ”

Facurrest didn't expect Aiden to turn the conversation to his side, he pondered for a while, looked up at Locke decisively and said, "Lord Harvey, I hope to get your support. I know Garin of House Tolbain doesn't like you. It's no secret in Arathi, and my groom can tell a few stories about how he orchestrated your theft of the kingdom of Lordaeron. ”

"My lord, Lord Aiden, can't help me, and I don't think there is any subordination between us anymore. Is it? Lord Aiden? ”

In the face of Facurrest's inquiry, Aiden nodded casually and confirmed to Locke. "Yes, there was actually no subordination between us after the end of the Second Orc War. Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for the past few years. ”

"That's good! Lord Aiden! ”

As he spoke, Facurrest looked at Locke expectantly and said, "If it's possible, I hope I can be loyal to you, and now you are the only one who can help me in the Lordaeron Continent." ”

Adopt him? Locke subconsciously shook his head, the rule of the Tolbain family over Arashi is a consensus affirmed by all the countries of the alliance. If I accept your allegiance and let you attack Garin in the Valley of Refuge, how will I get along with the rest of the Alliance? Am I going to be like you? Reduced to a Red Monster?

Seeing Locke subconsciously shaking his head, Facurrest's disappointment could not be concealed, and when those words came out, he was completely detached from Aiden's support. Without the support of reinforcements, he was unable to completely eliminate the remnants of the Torbain family in Arathi.

Not only that, but Arathi's trolls and Stonefist ogres have been encroaching on Arathi's land. As he eroded the rule of House Tolbain from behind, he also unwittingly took over the battle against the trolls and ogres.

Now he can feel Garin's difficulties. Compared to him, Garin at this time was accumulating all the strength of Arathi behind him, waiting to prepare to give him a hard blow.

After all, Garin is the ruler of the orthodox Arashi, he is only a usurper, and he is inherently unpopular with everyone there. And then there's the army of criminals under his command who are doing just that. In the eyes of ordinary people, their hatred has long exploded....

"I'm sorry, but the question about Arathi is not in the scope of this meeting." Locke said to him, "I'm angry with Garin's slander of me, but..."

Locke said apologetically to Facurrest, "I chose to offend the countries of the alliance to support you, unfortunately I can't do it, Lordaeron is still in the quagmire." ”

"But I think if you can talk to Garin, the problem can't be solved." Locke felt that this matter could be solved by a different way of thinking, so he continued to say to Facurrest, "You all have the same enemies, trolls and ogres. You can do it all after defeating them, and then discuss the solution to the problems that follow. ”

Hearing Locke say this, Farkurest smiled reluctantly, "Maybe, since I can't get the support of the two adults, then I won't stay here." ”

"I wish you all the best in reaching a consensus."

Facurrest bowed slightly, then strode away, without the respect he had shown before.

The two watched him leave, and it wasn't until he was far away that Locke heard Aiden's words.

"Blinded by power and lust... He thought the Coalition would let what he did in the Arathi Heights all the time? Aiden looked at his distant back and said with a little regret, "The Facurrest family used to be a family with a glorious history, and his ancestors have been loyal to my family for many years. Now I'm afraid I'm going to completely disappear from this world. ”

"Yes, whatever he does in the Arathi Highlands will be your shield, and with him as your shield, what you do in the Alterac Mountains won't attract much attention from the Alliance. On the contrary, the complex situation facing the entire human society now, some members of the Alliance may also choose to let you re-establish your own country for other reasons. ”

"Right? Lord Aiden? Locke turned to look at Aiden with a smile, "He's part of your plan too. ”

Aiden looked down and rubbed his hands together, especially as he rubbed the ring on his finger over and over again, which used to represent the family crest of Pernord, "I warned him, but he didn't want to listen to me." He clings to me only because he sees that I still have value in use. In fact, after this meeting with you, didn't he immediately pledge his allegiance to you, Lord Harvey? ”

"Use and be used, unplanned and planned, your plan and my plan, everyone has their own plan." Aiden looked up at Locke with a smile, "Am I right, Lord Harvey?" ”

"You've seen my plan, and you know it. What about your plans? ”

"I don't have any plans." Locke smiled and looked at Hudson, who was not far away, and shook his head at him vaguely.

"In the face of absolute strength, do you think I still need to plan? Lord Aiden? Locke turned his head and the corners of his mouth turned upward, "Whether you choose to fight the undead who occupy the Alterac Mountains or not, you know that since I am here, it means that there is no place for you in the current Hillsbrad Hills. ”

"Especially after I opened the passage to the southern silver pine forest..."

"The Alterac Mountains, that's where the Alliance can tolerate you." Locke stretched out his hands towards the smiling Aiden, "Lord Aiden, you don't have a choice. ”

"As for the syndicates now in the hills of Hillsbrad, the nobility that you nominally have under your command, in fact you have long since abandoned them. When you retake the land of the Kingdom of Alterac, you want to swallow their power, but you never have the opportunity to do so. ”

"But soon, the undead in the ruins of Lordaeron, who invaded the Alterac Mountains in a big way, gave you that opportunity."

"When you wanted my help, and I ignored it for other reasons, for the sake of your plan, in order to get my attention, in order to satisfy the request of that fool of Clito, and in order to give me a warning, you took advantage of the situation to induce your nobles who did not obey your orders to invade the Hillsbrad Hills, and cooperate with Klito to occupy the Hillsbrad Hills."

"And those who will follow you, they are all on the mountain and have not come down. You know, your bandit organization is no match for my army in the Hillsbrad Hills, and those men will certainly not be able to resist my attack. ”

"You tried to help you deal with the nobles who didn't listen to your command through my hand, and by the way, integrated the power of the Alterac nobles. At the same time, you know that the undead in the Alterac Mountains are my enemies. Either way, I will not allow them to completely occupy the Alterac Mountains and in turn attack the territory of Lordaeron. ”

"So you think I'm sure I'm going to help you, right? Lord Aiden? ”
