"The reason for all of this is that portal. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" mage Khadgar explained, "though we have destroyed that portal and severed our connection to the orc world; However, the destroyed portal still disrupts the space around it, making the time and space here chaotic and abnormal, and the demons swimming in the void can easily tear the shackles of time and space and come to our world. ”

"As for the ...... of harm," said Archmage Antonidas, "so far, no demons too powerful have found our world, and I and these mages of Dalaran are barely able to deal with it; But one day, the more powerful evil beings will discover our world and ...... An even greater catastrophe will befall us, and we mages are beyond it to resist. ”

"Do you have any proposals? Or rather, what do we need to do? King Terenus asked bluntly—the Void, the demons, and all of what Archmage Antonidas had said, were not clear to all of you; But they all realized the seriousness of the matter and were willing to contribute to solving these problems.

Arthas breathed a sigh of relief—he understood the relationship between coincidence and necessity that Master Khadgar had spoken of—that the demons must have discovered the chaotic space-time here; And the coincidence is because...... So far, these demons who have come to Azeroth have been chaotic and unorganized.

Of course, Arthas also understands that if the rift in time and space here is discovered by more and more demons, then it will only be a matter of time before the Burning Legion knows about this vulnerability; The occasion was not very convenient now, and he decided to wait until the meeting was over to find out if there was any way to solve the problem once and for all - and perhaps bring the unreliable Red Dragon Queen with him.

"We need money, manpower and material resources." Archmage Antonidas also did not shy away from saying, "We in Dalaran will send enough mage troops to be stationed here to continuously repair the rift in space; But at the same time, we need the Alliance's armies and a fortress to defend against the demons that might appear here. ”

King Terenus touched his beard under his chin and said nothing - Lordaeron was not short of money, and despite taking in the remnants of Stormwind and continuing to provide material support to the kingdom of Stormwind, the silver mines in Stratholme were not affected by the war, and the high lords such as Tirio Fording were loyal to the royal family, paying all the taxes and years of accumulation, which should satisfy Archmage Antonidas.

The problem is both human and material - after the end of the war, all countries have to start to resume production, especially the Kingdom of Stormwind, although the remnants have been able to return to their homeland, but the subsequent reconstruction works are very costly, all of which require support from the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

What's more, King Terenus didn't think he needed to be in a hurry to speak - the other two kings, one and one "would-be", were under more pressure for these needs from Archmage Antonidas.

Varian couldn't hold back his promise - it was the first time he had attended such a military conference, but Varian listened attentively; Hearing the news of those demons wreaking havoc had already worried him, and now that Archmage Antonidas had proposed a solution, Varian decided not to hesitate to support him - as King of Stormwind.

Arthas could see the eagerness in his playmate's heart, and although there was no expression on his face, Arthas quietly kicked Varian in the shin under the table.

"Al-......" Varian's words were stopped by Arthas's eyes, and he closed his mouth, but still looked at his little friend suspiciously.

"Don't talk yet, see what His Majesty King Sollas has to say." Arthas motioned to Varian to be uneasy - from the look on the face of the owner of Riptide Castle, Arthas knew that His Majesty had something to say - and it was also the case, when it came to money, especially military expenses and other expenses to meet the luxurious needs of His Majesty, Riptide Castle had always been known for being stingy.

"This ...... Archmage Antonidas, you know how much damage this orc invasion has done to our territory and civilians. I'm afraid we don't have enough supplies to meet the needs here - as you can see, there are still more than 100,000 troops of the Kingdom of Stormgard stationed here to this day, and I'm waiting for the war against the Orcs to be over and I will take them back to the Arathi Highlands to grow crops! King Solas said with a dry cough.

Growing crops? - Arthas pouted - This majesty the king will grow crops? Even in the entire Arathi Heights, you can't find a few real farmers who can grow crops, right? Besides, what can be grown in that barren place!

"King Soras, I must remind you that what we have said before is not alarmist, and if the Alliance does not take it seriously, Dalaran alone will definitely not be able to prevent these temporal rifts from expanding further; If more demons come to our world, it will undoubtedly be another catastrophe, even more terrible than the orc invasion. Archmage Antonidas said in a warning tone.

"I know that, but ......" King Solas didn't continue, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

"The money problem is relatively easy to solve -- even though we're not rich." Anduin Lothar spoke, "The royal family of Stormwind and the Brotherhood of Iron Horse still have some property, which I can give to Archmage Antonidas for your use, and if it is really in short supply, I can also collect or borrow some from other Stormwind refugees, and use the taxes of the royal family of Stormwind to repay it in the future." ”

Although these words were not uttered by Varian Wrynn, the true owner of Stormwind, no one would question the validity of Anduin Lothar's words - everyone here knew that this Marshal of Stormwind could represent the royal family of Stormwind - even though Varian Wryon was the only one left in the royal family - even after Varian Ureon was the only one left in the royal family - even after Varian's coronation, It was not an exaggeration for Anduin Lothar to be regent for a few years.

"But......" Anduin Lothar continued, frowning, "as far as human and material resources are concerned, I am afraid we will not be of much help. As you know, there aren't many civilians left in the Kingdom of Stormwind, and perhaps some will remain in the Kingdom of Lordaeron - of course, I respect the decision of these civilians themselves; As for the property...... You can use as many materials as you like from the lands of the Stormwind Kingdom, but ...... At least we don't have enough manpower to help you mine for the time being. ”
