The summit of the alliance was held on time.

Grand Artisan Mercatok, King Magni, King Daelin, and Prince Kael'thas were all present in person, and Archmage Ronin also participated in the meeting on behalf of Kenrito, who either took the subway, or had the Sword of the Storm Tide that can speed up the voyage, or teleported spells, and it was easy to reach Stormwind, which is an important reason why Alliance Summits often choose to be held in Stormwind.

However, there are also countries that are not so convenient to reach Stormwind, such as the representatives sent by Lordaeron and Darnassus, such as Lordaeron's envoy is the High Lord Mograinei, who is a guest in Ironforge, and Darnassus's envoy is the high-ranking priestess Hiloma, who is collecting the fragments of the Quicksand Scepter in the Eastern Continent.

At the meeting, Shiloma used a large number of examples to describe in detail the great threat of the Qila Zerg in the battle of quicksand thousands of years ago, and Claudia also selectively depicted the horror of Cthun and the Elder Gods, although with the persuasion of Gianna and Brian, the representatives of many countries of the alliance were still only skeptical about the seriousness of the situation.

This was the case with King Dalin, who had questioned the need for a temporary alliance with the tribe, but was persuaded by Gianna and Shilomar to accept it for the time being, on the one hand, Dalin was very concerned about the friendship between Kurtilas and the Night Elves, and on the other hand, according to Shilomar, it would not be long before the Zerg who had already attacked the Thousand Needles Stone Forest could appear in Theramore, which made Dahlin a little worried.

Finally, the representatives of all the nations were either persuaded or motivated to fulfill the covenant and repay the allies of the night, and the representatives of the various powers were no longer hesitant to send troops, and all the powers unanimously promised to send their most elite troops to Angela.

The Night Elves' sentinels and druid forces will naturally be exhausted, while in the Stormwind Kingdom, Claudia has promised to send the entire Seventh Legion and half of the Royal Knights into battle, Kenrito and Quel'Thalas will provide mage legions, and Ironforge will send dwarven soldiers and steam tanks...... All the forces will send their respective troops.

The total number of troops sent by the alliance as agreed at the meeting will reach 15,000, of which more than 4,000 are elite troops composed of professionals, including the elite of all races of the alliance, and in addition to soldiers, the alliance army will also include dwarven steam tanks and dwarf helicopters to ensure victory in this battle in all aspects.

Shilomar was grateful for this, and she promised that the Night Elves would be responsible for providing the regular logistics of the battle, and Claudia also conveyed Azadas's promise to the attendees--- and in order to ensure the safety of the Alliance's participating powerhouses and thank the mortal powerhouses, the Forge Hall would forge a batch of high-grade armor at cost for the elite or heroic powerhouses participating in the war.

In addition to meetings, banquets, balls, hunting and other social activities are also an important part of the summit, where leaders or representatives of various countries will privately talk about cooperation, transactions or other private matters between forces.

Claudia was the same, during the summit she would talk to other delegates about personal matters of interest to her in addition to official business, such as now at the ball after the banquet, she found Lordaeron's representative, the Grand Lord Mograine.

"Great Lord, you have my ...... Well, I'm sorry, is there any news of that child in the Sean family? Claudia asked.

Mograini knew who Claudia was talking about, and he nodded and comforted:

"Yes, don't worry, it's good news, because of Jaime Sheen's health, he and his men can't take care of the child himself, so most of the time, Geralt is raised by the priestess and maids of the church, and the priests, including Her Royal Highness Jialia, are very fond of the child."

"Her Royal Highness? Is she feeling better lately? Claudia was surprised that she knew about Galia's situation.

Although she has a gentle and kind personality, and also has an excellent family background and beautiful appearance, she seems to have been in her heart for more than ten years, depressed, with a rare smile on her face, and rarely steps out of the abbey, especially after the fall of Alsace,

This princess is thirty-three years old this year, but she has never accepted any pursuits, and it is precisely because of the knot in her heart.

"Yes, I saw Her Highness before leaving, she was smiling very happily at that time, and I heard from other sisters in the church that Her Highness has been in a good mood during this time."

"That's good news," Claudia nodded, "I hope Her Highness will get better." ”

While the two were chatting, the handsome and well-dressed Baron Kuholn stepped forward, stroked his chest and bowed: "Your Majesty, can you please dance?" ”

"I'm honored to have your invitation, Mei Ningqing, but I'm a little unwell today, so I can only apologize." Claudia politely declined.

"It's a pity to bother, Your Majesty." The baron saluted and took his leave.

Mograine glanced at the baron's distant back and frowned, "This is already the third of today's ball, and it's really hard for you to deal with them all the time." ”

"No way, just get used to it." Claudia smiled helplessly, she understood what Mograine meant.

It's been more than half a year since Varian disappeared, and although Claudia has repeatedly emphasized that Varian is just missing, many people actually think that Varian can't come back.

Their reasoning is not without reason, in this dangerous world, disappearance is synonymous with death in most cases, not to mention the fact that the Urion family has a tradition of tragic deaths for generations, and even many royal diehards have little hope in their hearts for Varian's survival.

In this case, some people already thought that Claudia would be lonely, and began to try to seduce her.

In this world, many noble ladies have lovers, even many queens in history, although paladins are usually of high moral character, but in the eyes of some people, if they can be favored by Claudia to become her lover, they can get too much.

After all, even putting aside the power and power in Claudia's hands, her appearance, figure, and bloodline are all first-class, which makes many people covet her.

Claudia's longing for Varian has been increasing for most of the year, and keeping chastity after marriage is a moral bottom line that needs to be strictly adhered to in her opinion, and she naturally can't be tempted by any other man.

Aware of these coveted thoughts, Claudia refused all invitations outside of official duties, and after she was done with her official duties, she hid in the palace with her children or read books, but there were always places she could not avoid, such as today's ball.

On the occasion of the ball, others are polite and invite dancers according to etiquette, and Claudia can only think of finding someone to block the dance or find an excuse to refuse politely, she can't lose the royal face or spoil the interest of others, she is not the wild girl who can go on a rampage four years ago after all.

A few days later, Stormwind.

The time is close to the end of the year, and it has been more than a month since the end of the alliance summit, and all the countries of the alliance are preparing for war, and some troops have begun to go to Camlido in advance to deploy defenses, so Claudia has more affairs than usual, but at this time today she is not dealing with official business, but is receiving Partris and his party who have returned from the twilight forest.

The trio of Partris, Segrina, and Paladin Arwyn spent nearly four months in the Twilight Forest, and after tracking down and killing the necromancer Morgan Fair, the trio also solved many of the troubles of the local residents of the Twilight Forest, such as solving the fallen paladin Morgan Raddymore, investigating the case of the corpse hider's wife, and the terrifying legend of Stavon. Found something difficult to deal with, an artifact that could affect the minds of mortals.

"Thanks to little Partris and Alvin's slow legs, if they had chased the three of us into the mine sooner, the three of us would have been in the mine like the hapless Night Elf......" Segrina gushed about the adventure.

Segrina, a ranger who is good at tracking, follows the trail of the four werewolves all the way to the entrance of the mine, which the locals call "Roland's Tomb", and then just as she sends a signal to wait for her teammates to arrive, a violent explosion occurs in the mine.

Later, after cleaning up, it was discovered that the explosion was caused by a large explosive barrel in the mine, and four werewolves and a night elf were blown to pieces on the spot, leaving only one artifact remaining.

"Sister, it's this weapon, and its name is the Luna Scythe." Partris handed the weapon to Claudia.

Claudia took the scythe and took a closer look, this weapon was a combination of a giant fangs and a staff, she could feel the majestic and serene power of Elune within the staff, and she could also feel the fury of the fangs to the extreme, these two completely different powers, making this artifact very difficult to control.

"This is the power that belongs to the goddess, and this weapon must belong to our allies in the night, and I will find time to send it to the High Priestess," Claudia turned to look at Partris, who had obviously grown a lot after going through those missions in the past four months, Claudia smiled and praised, "Really good job, little sister." ”

"Thank you, sister, for the compliment." Paltris blushed.

"You should thank me, Claudia, she can't grow without the teachings of this girl," the elf girl leaned in, rubbing her thumb and middle finger and index finger to flatter, "By the way, it would be better to give me a little more wages." ”

"Thank you, Cylie," Claudia laughed, "and for your additional requests, if not, I will renew your employment contract with you for another five years, and this time the price will be double that of the one five years ago." ”

"Well, for the sake of our friendship for many years and the cuteness of little Paltris, I reluctantly promise you to serve little Paltris for another five years." The elf girl swallowed and agreed without hesitation.

The three girls chatted and laughed, and lunch was shared that day, and finally Claudia planned to let her sister, whom she hadn't seen for months, stay with her for a few nights, but Claudia's plans were interrupted that afternoon by Harrison, who sent Brian update, a message that made Claudia excited enough to let go of other things.

Brian found a large number of traces of the black dragon when he was tracking down the fragments of the quicksand scepter that belonged to the red dragon's custody, and according to Brian's judgment, he should have discovered the black dragon's lair, and he immediately notified the Stormwind Kingdom allies who were looking for all the information of the black dragon.

"Black Dragon...... We have to settle accounts with each other. Claudia made up her mind with a deep hatred.
