The other side before. Having obtained Mavi's entire fleet in Ashenvale, Lotherma immediately moved his forces south by sea. Unlike the other Alliance races, their High Elves barely calculated the beginning and end of this war, winning or losing, because they believed that the Horde, at least the Tribal Navy, would not have the possibility of victory, so the war was insignificant compared to the current situation of the High Elves. Especially now that something unexpected has happened.

For some reason, when they went deep into the depths of the sea, where it used to be called Azhara, some elves actually suffered from diseases similar to heartlessness, and there were many of them. As the temporary leader, Lothama was at a loss, he could only try to increase the amount of medicine given by Mavi to suppress it, but in terms of the effect, that is, it could be suppressed, and then it was fed to the magic creation and some light rangers and high elves Silver Hand to use the holy light to try the method, but it had little effect, but fortunately, he could return to calm after the symptoms disappeared, but he was still quite anxious when he was sick, because anything could happen to people who were not sensible, especially now on various ships at sea...

On the night of the second day of the ship's journey, although exhausted, Lotherma could not sleep, so she sat alone on the forward deck of the flagship, looking at the dark sea ahead, reminiscing about the past and future of her own people.

Once upon a time, the power of his own sunwell had been nourishing their high elves, bringing them magic and increasing life, but also bringing them a demon-loving disease, perhaps before the sunwell disappeared, but after he disappeared, all the evils were revealed, and the power and mana and health that had been given were gone, replaced by a more demon-loving desire, and this was all thanks to their prince.

The Sunwell's absorption by Kael'thas and the Scourge not only led to the invasion of the Burning Legion, but also to the destruction of the High Elves as a whole, and it was hard for him to imagine that as a nobleman, he would do this, whether it was because Darth Rema gave his brother the position of crown prince. But all along, he has always felt that Kael'thas is a prince who has no intention of politics, and there seems to be only one explanation, and that is the contradiction between feelings and 'me'... It's funny, after all, it stands to reason that High Elves are no less beautiful women than humans.

However, in any case, Kael'thas had already made a mistake, and they just hoped that Illidan would lead the remnants of the Burning Legion to kill the rebellious prince, because Kael'thas had pushed their race to the brink of destruction, causing the already relatively rare High Elf race to fall from nearly a million at the beginning to only tens of thousands now. As for how many will be in the future, I really don't know for sure. Because he found that the disease of demonism not only blocked the longevity and health of the entire race, but also prevented them from reproducing.

Thinking of this, he may have understood that during this most difficult period, Ronin put Wen Lesa to the Red Dragon Queen. If the crystallized half-elves of humans and the High Elves are the hope of this race, perhaps these High Elves will be the last of the High Elves to exist...

He couldn't help but sigh, yes, Lotherma was a squad leader under Sylvanas, and Winlessa left the team halfway through because of Ronin, and the battle of Northrend was prominent, and Mavi promoted him to become her deputy. Later, when the war broke out suddenly, the High Elves within Quel'Salas were almost slaughtered by Kael'thas, except for a few High Elves living in the Lordaeron and Dalaran regions, and a few Ranger who studied the Light here at the Silver Hand. If he hadn't asked Sylvanas for leave to go to Lordaeron, he might have become the same undead as their group. It is precisely because almost all the generals and nobles have been killed or transformed into undead that he will naturally not become the de facto leader of the High Elves now. But he knew that maybe as the vice-captain, he could still be competent in the war, but the current situation was not within his control at all. And he has a more suitable candidate in mind...

"Liadrin—" Lotherma noticed her partner coming towards her, yes, she could become a leader in addition to the support of the Alliance, and that was the decision she took the lead in proposing and supporting. All along, with the deepening of the relationship between humans and the High Elves, and the fact that he saw that his excellent kindred, such as the three sisters of Fengxing, were all humans, he also realized that he could no longer hide anything from his sweetheart.

So, he confessed to the High Elf lady in front of him many times, but after each stern refusal, he became more and more calm and rational, and after the last time, when he returned from the expedition to Northrend and asked for leave to go to the Church of the Silver Hand of Lordaeron to confess to Liadrin, Lotherma felt completely denied.

His sense of loss was immediately transformed into his proper state after the fall of Quidirsalas and the tragic death of his people. At that gathering of the remnants of the High Elves in the Cathedral, Liadreen pushed aside the popular approval of Winlessa, and instead made Lotherma the commander of the High Elves and continues to this day. Aside from personal feelings, Liadline's behavior is supporting her in the dark, which once again ignites some emotional hope. Especially in the months that followed, as a warhammer-wielding warhammer and other human paladins charging the front line, she actually survived the almost annihilation of the Silver Hand, which made Lotherma feel that she would definitely cherish the affection she always reserved for her.

Now it looks like her face, which was pretty among the elves, has been cut several times, and her golden hair has also changed color after being infected by demon blood... So Lotherma thinks that as long as she stabilizes, she can live a stable life with her. But in the current situation, there is no chance to give them leisure, especially the miserable situation of the current High Elves makes it impossible for him to engage in his personal feelings for her on such an occasion, but now what Lotherma didn't expect is..."You came, I thought you were asleep." ”

"How can you fall asleep in such a situation... I didn't expect you to be here. ”

For this statement, Lotherma took it for granted that it was just a pretext for Liadrin, but after he relaxed and talked to her, Lotherma realized that the current situation was not what he imagined.

"I've heard from some of the High Elves that both Stormwind and the Dwarves have provided a lot of support, and with Mavi's support, I don't think this war will be difficult. ”

Lotherma's words made Liadline frown a little, because it seemed to her that Lotherma was still thinking about some things too simply.

"Lotherma, you are still so frivolous, you haven't seen the power of Thrall, even the mighty Akmund, he can keep him underground for a long time, do you think that the protection of the Northern Fortress can be compared to that of the adversary? and if it were so simple, Mavi, who was the same era as our leader Darth Rema, would sacrifice his life like this? You are still too light..."

As always, in private, Liadline was always reprimanding Lotherma in this way. Similarly, Lotherma was holding her head down and accepting Liadrin's venting as before, but this time she may have been in a bad mood, and he couldn't help it a little and began to resist.

"Can I be worse? I've done my best, and if you're not sure about me, then why did you let me rule the High Elves instead of Weensa? Are you worried that Winlessa is a vassal of the humans?"

"You're absolutely right, we are High Elves and cannot be completely subservient to humans, although we belong to the Alliance, but we must be relatively independent, just like Ironforge, we are not human. ”

"That's why you elected me?"

He began to question Liadline at this time, and the answer he received clearly made him a little desperate.

"yes, one of us has to have a man step up, don't you? and you're a man. ”

"You're prejudiced against humans, so why didn't you question Aurelia like everyone else during World War I and World War II, why did you lead your people to learn the Light after Winlessa became a Light Ranger, why didn't you dissuade Arthas and Sylvanas when they walked in?"

"That's because after studying the Light, I realized the greed and prejudice of humans, they don't think that the Light is a gift to all people, but humans, and that sooner or later we High Elves will become inferior beings to humans like the dwarves. Just like Arthas, he has already attacked Sylvanas after getting Gianna, and he has obtained the power of the red dragon to support Gianna when Sylvanas's life and death are uncertain, and he still doesn't think of us as kindred in his heart. ”

"What do you think? What he did to Sylvanas is my purpose, and letting him live is Sylvanas's inner choice, isn't it?"

"Yes, this is Sylvanas's choice, but it is also his terrible, and Mavi, the Night Elf, has only fought a few battles with Arthas, and like Sylvanas, she abandoned her position and fortune to support Arthas, and they supported our ships for her own sake and for her own benefit. ”

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so narrow-minded, even if you hate humans, do you think now is the time?"

Lotherma was a little angry, although what she said made some sense, but this was not the Liadeline he knew, especially her somewhat murderous appearance at the moment, yes, she had such an experience before, but now it was different, he was now the nominal leader, so he would not attack himself, but reason told him that it was not, Liadline was going to kill herself.

"Lotherma! How dare you say that about me. As she spoke, Liadline prepared to attack Lotherma, but she was a little manic at the moment, and before he could draw his sword, she was shot by a bow and arrow in the distance.

"Damn human!" he knew whose bow and arrow was behind him, but just as she was about to pick up her sword and turn her on the human ranger Nathanos, Lotherma knocked her unconscious in the back.

"Could it be that she's..."

Lotherma asked Nathanos, to which Nathanos sighed.

"I think we'd better get out of here. I've seen your history with Mavi, which was once near the capital of your High Elves, and where your former queen, who was also the queen of the Night Elves, sank. There are signs that she is not dead, but has been preoccupied with leading a Naga-like creature to infest the Night Elves and other creatures, so Mavi's brother Garrod and a high-ranking priestess named Hazuki are stationed in the southwest, and even the Burning Legion has not supported the invasion here. I think your current situation has something to do with their speculation. ”

"What's the matter?"

"There are a lot of people, a lot of people who go berserk intermittently, and more and more often, even the Light Ranger among us, like her, I suspect it has something to do with it. ”

"So what do you think we should do?"

"This is the range of the goblins, let's see what the goblins can do, if it goes according to the past, as long as you give them enough money, they can help you with anything. ”

"It's just a try, but Liadrin?"

"They're just intermittent illnesses, plus they're caused by exertion, so it won't be like this when she wakes up..."Nathanos patted Lotherma, who was staring at Liadrin. "What Liadlin said was only amplified by her uneasy emotions, if she would not have said it in her life? Of course, and you held her like this, maybe you could only stun her and hold her at this time. ”

"You're still joking with me at this time, but you're right, maybe that's the only time she needs me. He said this to Nathanos, but after seeing Nathanos's serious expression, Lothama realized that he was serious, after all, the object he was guarding did not belong to him, and it was gone, so he chose to obey Nathanos's joke. "Well, maybe he'll kill me when he wakes up, I don't even know how many times she's rejected it, and I don't know how many times I'll be able to hold on. ”

Nathanos smiled, he knew that Lotherma was comforting him, but he didn't want to talk to him about these feelings anymore, but faced reality, a basic reality.

"To be honest, I really don't know what to do if you High Elves are like this, but one thing I can be sure of is that you have not become ill since you disappeared from the Sunwell, which may have proved that your mental strength has surpassed that of many people, and I admire you. ”

"You're worried about me when you say that. ”

"I'm not kidding, maybe if you're crazy, the High Elves may really be extinct. ”

"I'm not that great. ”

"No, Lotherma. It's true, you should know your situation now, no High Elf can get pregnant now, and it is not for nothing that Winlessa went to the Red Dragon Queen to recuperate, maybe you can't be afraid anymore, this is an opportunity, when Liadline wakes up, maybe you can give her some when he needs warmth the most, otherwise you may regret losing..." Nathanos sighed, and Lotherma, with whom he had known each other for nearly twenty years, knew what he was saying, and Nathanos was pretty sure he was telling Lotherma what he was going to do with Liadrin.

"Then, then please go to Silk Harbor alone. ”

Nathanos nodded and didn't say anything more, but immediately rode the Horned Hippogriff mount he had trained in Greyvale to the vicinity of the Southern Silk Docks, taking a look at the situation on the goblin's side and explaining his intentions to the people here, so that their warships could pass through without being hindered. Obviously, Nathanos and the High Elves, who had been staying in the territory of the Night Elves, did not know that the goblins had joined the tribe at this moment, and regarded the Alliance, especially humans, as mortal enemies.

And Lotherma took her back to the cabin, but it was just like this to see her beloved woman here, but the desire and irrational thinking during the period also became more and more confused as the hug deepened, perhaps in the past, emotional suppression was not a problem at all for the deep Lotherma. But now, how can he, who is also a High Elf and under the pressure of a leader, have more willpower than the others? And if Liadeline saw that Lotherma was lonely at the bow of the ship and could not hold on to her sanity, then Lotherma was much more than a paladin-turned-Leadrin, and finally after he realized that there were no sentinels standing guard, he chose to put Lyadelin back in his room. And just as he put Liadeline down on the bed. The fury could not be inhibited by his own reason and infect his whole body, and he had to act more to release it than Liadeline's complaint, so before she could be put on the bed, he had already begun to release his beastly nature and tear everything from her body after he had lost his mind...

It went on like this for an hour, and when Liadeline woke up in pain again, she had regained her senses and found her current situation, and it was not only her own situation that made her sad, but the High Elf who had always supported her in her heart did such a thing to herself. Just as she was about to resist and try to subdue him, but it was also at this time that she seemed to remember that she had just lost her mind, and even had to quarrel and fight with him and Nathanos, which made her realize the current situation and what Nathanos had said before.

"Letting him unleash his feelings may be the best help for him, or he'll go as crazy as the rest of you at any moment, especially now that he's at the forefront of the battleship. After all, since the Holy Light can no longer guarantee that she can maintain her sanity, how can her Holy Light make Lothmar come to her senses?

As time passed, Liadline couldn't hold on a little anymore, but Lotherma still didn't let go of herself, even slowing down. However, when she was completely unconscious, Liadline still used the holy light to release some messages into the mind of the Lothema who had always admired her, and these messages contained her guilt and feelings for him, such as when she rejected him for the first time, she wanted him to exercise his own willpower and mental strength more strongly in the case of emotional frustration. Because she was optimistic from the beginning, Lotherma, a calm and determined ranger, would lead the entire ranger team in the future. As for herself, she is a woman like Sylvanas and Aurelia, and after all, she still can't really lead the most elite troops of this High Elf.

Maybe it was seeing this, Lotherma's insane illness suddenly disappeared, yes, reason also instantly recovered his mind, he was a little overwhelmed when he saw such a scene, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed after feeling Liadeline's feelings for himself, but Liadeline, who could still hold on at the moment, saw that Lotherma left tears of remorse, and she didn't say anything, but took the initiative to get close to Lotherma. And then in this place where she felt the warmest fell into a tired and stable slumber... And Lotherma recognized her situation and put it in her arms again so that she could sleep peacefully on her body for the night...

On the other hand, Nathanos, who had indirectly arranged all this, was already on his way to the south, where he envied Lotherma, and of course out of friendship he was anxious about the quiet feelings of Lotherma and Liadline, after all, it seemed to him that it was the most dangerous thing to do...

Aurelia and Tulayan also had relationship problems, and this problem lasted for almost the entire entire period of World War I and World War II. But during that period of time, compared to the situation in which the two of them were sneering and arguing with each other, it seemed to Nathanos that Lotherma's silence and forbearance would sooner or later lead to a complete severance of affection, or that it would be stillborn before it even appeared, and no one even knew that this kind of relationship existed, just like his own feelings for Sylvanas, and few people even knew that he still had such feelings buried...

But not everyone was unconcerned about himself, and at this moment in the dark clouds, Nefarian, who had returned from patrolling the north and communicating with some Night Elves, noticed the human ranger riding the horned eagle, and the fluctuations in his inner thoughts, and he found some of the things in her mind more interesting, such as the fact that he felt his loyalty to Sylvanas, and that loyalty was definitely profitable. For example, he can be developed into a usable pawn, after all, their Black Dragon Legion has its own people in the tribe, and even on the side of the Night Elves and their dwarves, but there is no one in the human race...

After the tragic death of his sister, the Black Dragon Legion that he was entrenched in the human world was almost completely wiped out, coupled with the vigilance of Stormwind City, Luo Ning could sense their aura, and many of the commanders of the upper echelons of the human race were loyal existences, so the problem of how to infiltrate the human race has always been a problem for him. But this human is different, he is a human being, mixed with the High Elves of the Alliance, and more importantly, he is different from other eyeliners, the other eyeliners are loyal to themselves for purposes, such as strength and status, but this human is different, he is only loyal to Sylvanas, and the elven ranger captain at this moment has long been chimeric with his sister's will, so it means that he will become completely loyal to the existence of the Black Dragon Legion, not for any interests and power, and this is the most reliable and the least easy to find.

Thinking of this, Nefarian did not fly, but immediately teleported back to his lair, and here he told Deathwing about his plan far away in Northrend, and after getting permission, he took action, but at the end of the words, Deathwing still reminded him that he must not act rashly, and repeatedly explained to Nefarian, just let the development of this loyal human ranger is nothing more, and must not arrange any tasks that this person and his behavior are unreasonable.

Although Nefarian still didn't understand why his father didn't let this informant do anything unfavorable to the Alliance, or even let himself interfere in this matter, he just explained that he would give her to Sylvanas, yes, that's what Nesario called it, he usually called his sister and Sylvanas a hybrid soul as Onexia or a daughter, but this time he actually called Sylvanas. But doubtful question, he did it anyway according to his father's will.

Back in the nursery full of dragon eggs, Nefarian explained the relevant task to his sister in detail, for such an arrangement, she is bent on revenge on me and the Alliance, she is very much approved of this plan, and she knows that Deathwing cares, that is Nathanos this person, he is true to himself, but he is really loyal to the positive Sylvanas in the past, not to himself now, so she has to show another side. The disguise that the black dragon is best at...

Back in Nathanos, although he didn't have the good eyesight of the elves, but he spent so much time in the elves that his eyesight surpassed that of ordinary people, and when he arrived near the port of Xiushui, he found that the goblins were moving, deep inland and on the coastline, as well as at sea, a large amount of supplies were ready to be transported. For example, ammunition and artillery, as well as some other parts and medical supplies, can be said to be almost all the goblins' belongings.

With his previous knowledge of the goblins, they must be selling arms, and it is impossible for them to be an alliance, because if they want to transport these goods to the southern island of Seramo, they must pass through a long tribal sea, so they can only go to the deep sea for transportation, so the transportation through the coast can only show that they are trading with the tribe. And in terms of diplomatic relations, they are still a relatively pro-tribal group, so they must have helped the tribe transport this batch of materials, but in terms of scale and quantity, Nathanos was very shocked, why did the tribe have so much ammunition, as far as he knew, the tribe's ships were very simple, could they use heavy shells and install heavy artillery on those improvised warships, this is really incredible. Of course, there's an incredible amount of more...

For a long time, goblins have been interspersed in various camps except for the Burning Legion, and there is even gossip that the undead have business dealings with them, although they do not pay attention to the essence of customers, but they all pay attention to balance in various places, otherwise they would have been wiped out by the alliance in the eastern continent when they first helped the orcs.

But this time, they dragged their families to support the tribe, and even the goblin navy, that is, some suicide speedboats, also joined them, making him even more unpredictable, because those speedboats with very small wheelhouses could not be sold to the tribe, and the goblin navy also sharpened their knives as if to indicate that they were also going to participate in this war.

"Do they goblins and mercenaries? However, as a human, he knew that he had better sneak in and observe the situation, so when he was about to reach his destination in the night, Nathanos chose to dive into the harbor, on a trestle, and sneaked into the docks, but the tight transportation of goods made it impossible for him to enter at all. But he had to hurry, or else Lothima and his men would arrive in the morning, and they might suffer unexpected results.

He tried to sneak ashore, but unfortunately, because the goblins were shorter than the gnomes, their fences and some of the buildings could not hide from him, so he could only try to listen to them by the water's edge in the shadows. But it doesn't work, because they're all busy and don't talk to anyone at all.

He took a different approach to this, he knew something, and that was the nature of goblins... Greed for money, in his opinion, there is no problem for goblins that money cannot solve. So he arrived at a lonely goblin early, covered his mouth and held it aside, and then swept the money bag in front of his eyes, and the goblin would immediately give up saving his life and turn to you as an uncle.

Nathanos remembered that Sylvana had taught him how to deal with the goblins, and as he had thought, the goblin, who had been held hostage by himself, immediately showed a greedy gaze when he saw the money bag, and stopped struggling, and even turned around and started a business with himself. It's just that Nathanos didn't want him to see who he was, so he told him about the pay after blindfolding him before turning his head.

"My friend, if you can answer some of my questions, I promise that these are all yours, and let you go back, one gold coin for each question, and ten more for answering them all. ”

"As long as I know I'm sure I'm going to say it. ”

So the two men did not answer a question, and Nathanos handed him one:

"What are you doing here? ”

"To serve the tribe, they want a lot of ammunition and artillery, and we provide it. ”

"How could they need such large naval and heavy artillery shells?"

"I don't know, this is what Lord Zulkin asked, it is said that he has a large number of refurbished warships on his side!"

At this moment, Nathanos seemed to realize something, on the beach of exile, it was Zurkin who voluntarily led his clan to stay behind to cover the Alliance against the Burning Legion's pursuers, at the time everyone thought that he was going to serve as an example of reconciliation between the Alliance and the Horde, and now it seems that he may be for the Alliance's warships... It turned out that at that time he had already begun to prepare for today's war of the Union and the Horde.

Nathanos' hands became heavy at the thought of this, yes, he knew what would happen if these warships were released to the Horde, and these ammunition and naval guns were enough to prove that he had indeed modified a lot, but even though he hated trolls and these goblins, Nathanos still didn't want to add one more enemy to the Alliance, so he asked the goblin a question that he shouldn't have been able to answer.

"With so much goods, what benefits did the tribe give you?"

"Are you an elf?

The goblin had been puzzled the last time he handed him the gold coins, the identity of the person who had kidnapped him, and yes, he had begun to suspect that this man was a human or a High Elf, not the Night Elves as he thought, or a pauper tribal warrior.

"Answer my question!"

"The tribe gave us a large sum of money, and there is no way, but your alliance has not given us a dime. ”

The goblin asked tentatively, and at this time, Nathanos made a mistake because of his excitement, that is, he gave him three more gold coins, and his words indirectly revealed his identity...

"If the Lian Alliance gives you the same price, will you turn your guns?"

"It depends on the price..."

"Of course, it's higher money than the tribe. ”

"I think I can introduce you to our chieftain, who is a more greedy man than I am. ”

Nathanos hesitated, but he was convinced that the goblin who had taken the money would help him, so he accepted his suggestion, and handed him the money bag and released him to lead the way, and the goblin, realizing that it was indeed human, also made his own calculations, such as introducing him to a precise area and attacking him in a group.

On the way, Nathanos felt a little suspicious, he felt that this goblin wanted to frame him, and did not lead him to a path but towards the docks, he was vigilant about this, but what really made him realize the danger was when he saw the goblin's very hateful and surprised eyes on him, he realized the danger of the situation, and at this time, the goblin who was kidnapped by himself couldn't help but shout.

"There's a human spy, come and help..."Nathanos killed him before he could finish speaking, and after slicing the money bag open before the goblin operation, he thought about escaping inland, yes, he didn't expect this to be the end. How could goblins be so hostile to humans, you know, a few months ago, the Alliance and the goblins were fighting side by side in Mount Hyjal, but now...

He didn't know why, he had to run, and on the way he ran, some goblins chose to pick up the gold coins, but some of them ignored the gold coins and went directly after Nathanos, which made him very strange, obviously he didn't know the main reason why they regarded humans as mortal enemies, but Nathanos knew that he had to tell Lothmar to attack here to destroy the entire tribe's supply lines.

At the moment, he doesn't have any weapons, and the goblins have a large number of shotguns with short range and crosshairs, but these have been dodged by Nathanos, on the way to pursue, Nathanos chose a mountain, and hid in a place, and used assassination methods to solve the goblins who followed and scattered one by one, but it was not a repeated trial, after all, he did not carry a bow and arrow, and after solving a few, the goblins next to him still called for more partners to come, and they approached Nathanos with long-range weapons。

After a long immersion in the icy waters, the physical exertion and his severe unfamiliarity with the terrain made him a disadvantage. Seeing this situation, Nathanos seemed to know his fate, he couldn't be the opponent of so many goblins with guns, maybe he could fight a few to the death, but he was worried that after he was captured, the magic goblins would find out what he knew, so he decided to kill himself, after all, he thought that his death would definitely alert Lotherma, and their manager's eyesight could observe the situation here, he should be able to make a wise judgment, and he could only hope that the elf companion would recognize this reality.

Nathanos couldn't help but sigh, and began to wave his dagger, but at this time, a corner suddenly kept shooting bows and arrows, instantly shot down a lot of goblins, goblins didn't know the situation, they thought that there must be a large number of ambushes to shoot so many arrows in an instant, so they hid instantly, but even so, it still couldn't stop the bow and arrows from falling on their bodies accurately, in this regard, the goblins instantly fled like birds and beasts, because in their eyes this is a buried place, and it is an elite army of archers ambushing them。

But this can hide from others, Nathanos, he knows that this is not a team to do, but a person, and he is convinced of the identity of this person.

Nathanos was excited and walked into that position, but at this moment another bow and arrow was fired at him from the hiding point, but the target was not Nathanos, but the position in front of him signaled him not to advance, but how could Nathanos be willing? As his spiritual pillar and the object of his loyalty, he swore to see her to the death, even if he died under her arrows. Nathanos continued to go there, and when the one who was exactly the same body as he thought she ran away, Nathanos was even more convinced that it was Sylvanas, but how could he keep up with Sylvanas, and he was not in a very good state now.

"I know it's you, why are you running?" said Nathanos, but apparently the figure in front of him ignored him, just as he drifted away. He uttered a sentence that he thought would work best. "You know everybody thinks you're dead, but Arthas still believes you're alive. ”

"Impossible..."Sylvanas turned around and stopped as a matter of course, yes, this had always been her question, and the Black Dragon King was the Sylvanas who was controlled by this spiritual breakthrough, but just as she wanted to continue asking, she found that her will still did not allow her to continue asking, and at this moment Nathanos was explaining to her from a relatively distant position. I'm afraid she's running away.

"It's true, Arthas, when he got Gul'dan's head, thought of exchanging it for the Black Dragon with this thing that could destroy the world. Many of the Night Elves witnessed this. ”

"Really?" Sylvana was a little excited, but soon another sentence popped into her mind...", but he didn't. ”

"So you're so cruel to him, do you think you're abandoned, or do you think you should live and die together instead of giving everything to save your other half?"

Hearing this, Sylvanas had tears in her eyes, yes, whether she pretended to be or fought from the heart, these were indeed undisguised and superficial actions, and she quickly wiped it, fell down and continued her steps.

"I'm not Sylvanas, I'm a dead man. ”

"Whatever form you are, you are who you are, even if you don't have free will," Nathanos retorted, but Sylvanas was already far away at the moment, perhaps no longer audible. And looking at Sylvanas, who was gradually moving away and beyond his reach, Nathanos was already loveless, and he didn't want to think that after he lost the news of her, when she reappeared, he would have such an attitude towards him. All along, Nathanos had dreamed of meeting Sylvanas, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Originally, Nathanos himself was able to hold on until now, nothing more than to continue to hold on to the will that Sylvanas had not insisted on, but if he gave up this thought, then what would he insist on?So he picked up the dagger again, only this time to reach for his neck, and before he was ready to cut his own throat, he finally told her his will..."I have always held on to your will until now, Sylvanas, if I know that you are still alive and have abandoned us, then what am I doing alive?!" ”

Hearing this, Sylvanas paused a little, perhaps a little moved, and of course more about his plans. She was convinced that the human ranger was completely loyal to her existence, which completely confirmed her suspicions, otherwise she would have killed Nathanos even if he didn't kill himself.

"Nathanos..."Sylvanas walked back, walked into Nathanos and snatched his dagger, and Nathanos was thrilled to see this, maybe if it weren't for some consideration, he might have hugged Sylvanas, but Sylvanas took the dagger and made it look like she was going to kill him herself, but before that, she also wanted Nathanos to explain something.

"I'm an undead, maybe when I'll be controlled again, although I escaped with the help of Thassarian, but I don't know when I will be controlled by him, and the undead scourge is still very powerful, if they find me comfortably, I will definitely become their puppet again, you look at me again, I am full of rotten flesh, maybe one day I will only be left with a skeleton or even annihilation. I'm dangerous around you. ”

Sylvanas quickly swiped over the outermost layer of the skin on Nathanos' neck, and after making sure he wasn't dodging, Sylvanas no longer doubted his new position and loyalty to him. And return the dagger object to its rightful owner. Yes, on the other hand, Nathanos was very excited to see Sylvanas like this to himself

"So you're so secretive and silently helping us?"

"I don't think I can do anything anymore. ”

Sylvanas turned his head and said, which made him even more anxious.

"Don't you really want to go back? Now that war between the Alliance and the Horde is on the verge of breaking out, and Mavi has given us ships, and she has abandoned everything she has done in the dark to help us. ”

"High Priestess, Lord of Ashenvale Mavi?" Sylvanas realized something, he knew this Night Elf Lord in Onexia's memory, she really didn't expect Mavi to give up everything to follow me, but Sylvanas, who had a similar experience, realized something, such as how he himself was not like this, although his own status was far inferior to Mavi, but it was all the same, and at the same time, at this time, an indescribable jealousy and shame in her heart also arose. "Really, that's nice..."

"Maybe you should go back to Arthas, he has used his undead identity to prove in the mountains of Hyjal that the undead body does not mean anything, and it is our form that really decides, Gianna must have some way to help you avoid the control of others. ”

"No... No" Sylvanas was resolute, she didn't want to continue talking to him, whether it was her intention to hide it or the message Nathanos told herself, it made her feel inexplicable heartache. "I can't go back, I can't go back..."

"Then what are you going to do, wandering like this, then I'll be with you?"

"I'm not wandering, I'm just trying to help you as much as I can, you go back and tell Lothmar about the situation here, tell him to destroy the entire goblin position, and then go to support the Alliance. ”

"But why are goblins so hostile to our alliance?"

Nathanos asked, but Sylvanas could tell him plainly about it.

"According to them, the Alliance slaughtered all the goblins in the Dust Swamp after the Burning Legion War, and the reason the Alliance did so was that Dalyn and many other human civilians died at the hands of the goblins... But now is not the time to hold anyone responsible, you go and help find Lotherma, let your warships destroy this place, otherwise these ammunition and artillery support will be in trouble for Zurkin, I have prepared a steam speedboat to the north, you go quickly, I will cause damage before you arrive. ”

"I understand!" Nathanos said, preparing to leave, but a crucial question suddenly occurred to him. "By the way, if you don't come to the Alliance, then how can I see you. ”

"With this dagger. I'll be able to find you, and when I help the Alliance defeat the Horde, I'll be in complete seclusion... Arthas doesn't need me anymore, Mavi and Gianna, and maybe someone else, I'm superfluous. ”

When Nathanos heard Sylvanas say this, he couldn't help but muster up the courage to show her a will, yes, at this moment he realized that this might be the last and best chance that God had given him, so he did not persuade Sylvanas to return to me, but considered his own feelings:

"If you think you are superfluous, then I hope that I will continue to follow you in my personal name. I hope you can agree. ”

Nathanos grabbed Sylvanas' hand and said, yes, it was indeed difficult to refuse, and it was also when Sylvanas was relatively longing and in need of comfort, and Sylvanas seemed unable to refuse, and there was no reason to refuse, because this was what she wanted.

"If you I can survive. Then we'll all leave, but that's until you finish your mission in the Alliance, and you must not tell anyone about my existence, you must do it, and then we will go away and fly away from the world, if you still want to see my dead body at that time. ”

"I understand, I will obey any orders you have, you must wait for me..."Nathanos said and left with tears in his eyes, yes, at this moment he didn't expect that his wish would be fulfilled after all, and it was this feeling that completely occupied his brain, so that Nathanos ignored the investigation of her identity, he was just thinking about helping the alliance completely defeat the tribe this time, and then let himself and Sylvanas live in seclusion, his heart was full of boiling.

Similarly, Sylvanas here, it was Nesario who authorized her to do this, because in the heads-up between Khadgar and Nesario more than ten years ago, Khadgar used the inlays of those inferior nuts in Deathwing's body, and the weakness of the armor link made by poor welding technology to easily defeat him, which not only made him lose Gul'dan's head and the Book of Medivan, the Scepter of Sargeras, the Eye of Dalaran and a large number of artifacts, but also a whole generation of black dragon eggs, and of course, he also gave himself an additional record of defeating the human mage alone, although no one will record it, but it has left a shadow here with Nesario...

After nearly two hours of sailing, in the middle of the morning, an excited Nathanos returned to the flagship of the High Elves, who had just departed. It also happened to be at this time. At that time, there was a violent explosion in the direction of Silk Harbor, perhaps awakened by a sudden sound, and the warmth of Lothmar and Liadrin, who had regained their will, was interrupted instantly, and quickly dressed, but where was it compared, the speed of Nathanos, he quickly arrived in this room, and ignored the undressed appearance of Lotherma helping Liadrin, and directly reported the situation to Lotherma, who was about to accuse him.

During this time, he did not say anything about the war, but told them about the current situation of the goblins and our contradictions, and suggested that they take advantage of the fire to completely destroy the goblins in this area.

Lotherma hesitated for Nathanos's suggestion, but after Liadlin reminded the goblins to provide a large amount of artillery fire and ammunition to those warships abandoned by the Alliance, Lotherma still agreed to Nathanos's suggestion, after all, in his opinion, the war between the Alliance and the Horde is not a big problem, and they don't need their support at sea, so it is better to take advantage of the chaos on the goblins' side to kill them.

Also at the suggestion of some High Elves and Nathanos, these warships continued to fly the Night Elves to fight the goblins in order to divert their hatred, although Lotherma was a little unwilling, but there was no way, if it would take a lot of time to change the flag, and what they lacked most was time, so they went on the way.

On the other hand, the goblins saw that it was a Night Elf warship, and thought they were cruising around to help put out the fire. So they let their guard down and even sent them to greet them, but when all the Night Elf warships were in a favorable position, they were greeted by countless cannonballs as goblins.

Because they were in a hurry to transport, the cannonballs landed on the goblins' ammunition depot, resulting in more and larger explosions, and the fire caused by this explosion, and the fear brought by the loud noise made it impossible for the goblins to organize any resistance, and the Lothmar continued to attack the residential areas and camps on other coastlines, and the shells rained down on the coastal areas where the goblins were richest and most populated, and in an instant the wealth accumulated by the goblins for centuries, even decades, was wiped out. The fighting has even ignited camps and residential areas along the coast and in the mountains, but Lothema still has no intention of stopping, because the shells here can be replenished in a steady stream, and even if the ship's guns are broken, there are plenty of parts and even finished products to repair.

With the screams and anger of the goblins, they don't seem to feel much guilt at this time, in addition to hatred, there is also an important point that they are now plagued by demons, but such an arbitrary trampling of their lives with the machines and explosions that goblins are best at is also a kind of satisfaction, which can completely suppress that demonic desire, so Lotherma has no reason to refuse to do so.

And so the bombing continued for a week, and after the coastline was devoid of any goblins. Lotherma led his Ranger troops into the land to clear the goblins hiding in the forest. Yes, this kind of removal is as easy as an adult bullying a toddler who thinks they are hiding well, after all, goblins are not trolls, and the gap between their strength and agility and eyesight and mountain adaptability and the High Elves is not half a star, and the practice of hiding in the mountains and forests is undoubtedly a cover-up to the High Elves.

Sylvanas, who turned into a black dragon, was very satisfied to watch this scene appear in the clouds, he was satisfied with completing the task of Deathwing with himself, and also helped the Black Dragon King prove the barbarism of mortals, which also indirectly contributed to the goblins' understanding of the alliance's mortal enemies, of course, not only that, the alliance's slaughter of goblins in the name of the Night Elves will obviously anger the neutral Night Elves, although the Alliance has taken advantage of the tribe in this war, but in fact it only increases the depth of mutual hatred and the Night Elves' antipathy to the Alliance, although the Night Elves are not goblins who like to log much, but they prefer to massacre civilians, especially in their own name.

On the other hand, Gary Wicks, the goblin leader who had almost fled to the Night Elves, was very hesitant to flee to the Night Elves, because he clearly saw that these ships belonged to the Night Elves, but reason told him that this might be a deception, because if the Night Elves attacked themselves, then why did they no longer attack directly on the border, but took a long detour to the seaside, and they who had just helped the Night Elves had no reason to be so angry with this peace-loving race because of some trees that were secretly cut down, so it may have been done by the High Elves。

It was only after some of the survivors returned to tell him about this fact, that Garry Vix decided to lead his refugees into the Night Elves' Ash Valley region. and immediately report to the Night Elves that someone is slaughtering civilians under their banner, and hope that the Night Elves will call the shots for them.

However, the Night Elves were also very embarrassed by Gary Vix's proposal, as most of them were soldiers loyal to Mavi, and they didn't know if this was Mavi's meaning, after all, she had now defected to the Alliance until Tyrande's arrival. As a high priestess, she realized the seriousness of the problem. She couldn't believe it was going to be like this. She and Malfurion had to revisit any help they could make for the alliance and mediation, but that was a story for later (Ronin), and he took them in first. And send a large number of troops into the Goblin territory to stop the slaughter of the High Elves, yes, although the High Elves are good at mountain warfare, but the Night Elves are better at it.

When the people of Lotherma realized that the Night Elves were interfering. After so many days of wanton attacking goblins, he realized for the first time that he might have played too big, no way, he couldn't be an enemy of the Night Elves, and he didn't know if he would become the target of the Night Elves' attacks. In this regard, he could only choose to leave the place quickly after collecting the ammunition and possible supplies.

On the way, the fleet, which had always been cheerful, suddenly became as silent as death. Yes, if the Night Elves are enemies of the Alliance, they are undoubtedly the sinners of the Alliance. But the bad news didn't stop there, as after two days of driving south, the Hippogriffs of Kodana and Maitwyne arrived, and in addition to telling them about the crisis in the Alliance's navy, they were reprimanding them for not doing anything in the Azhara area after four weeks.

Nathanos and Lotherma briefly explained how they destroyed the Silk Dock and the Goblins, which may be a good reason, but there is also a little bit of a trick that Kordana has discovered, that is, they are flying the flag of the Night Elves... As a member of the Night Elves, he was angry at the High Elves for acting in the name of their own people.

Yes, she came to the Alliance only because of Mavi, and in her heart, she was still completely the will of a Night Elf, and the Alliance's approach undoubtedly hurt her heart deeply, but he didn't quarrel, but chose to leave on his own horned eagle beast and go back to the Gray Valley region that he was familiar with in the north, he didn't want to stay here, but wanted to return to his homeland...

In this regard, Matt Wynne can't keep it at all, and if it were really on Matt himself, she would be like this. However, she didn't blame the High Elves, after all, they were also helping her Lordaeron, so she skipped the topic with Lotherma and went straight to the point, that is, how to reinforce the main forces of the Alliance on Exiled Beach, which was already besieged.

On the other hand, in fact, it is not only the black dragon Sylvanas who is secretly observing the Silk Harbor, but also his predecessor, or an important branch of their High Elves, the once orthodox High Elves.

With the death of Sargeras and the fall of Akmund, the forces in the depths of the deep sea east of the Azhara region were no longer afraid of anything. They began to try to observe the world on their own, rather than relying on the dictates of the fish-men who couldn't hear what they were saying clearly, so Naga could see everything that was happening around the Sea of Azhara very clearly. It is precisely through these things that they realize that the mortals in the current world do not seem to be so noble. Of course, this noble is talking about those high elves. However, what bothered the Naga master the most was not how despicable his bereaved deeds were, but that their race was almost wiped out and sick. While she denounced the incompetence of her former subordinate Tasrema in her heart, she also realized that he had to prepare.

But until then, it's best not to startle the snake during the war of the century of this Union Horde. So she continued to lurk in the deep sea and observe what was happening outside with her secret crystal ball, but it was at this time that she realized that Kordana, who had left in resentment, the Night Elf maid who had served her in her court in her early years, and later became a priestess, yes, she recognized the pain and helplessness of this Night Elf, and knew that this priestess was very meaningful to her infiltration into this world. So she used her spell to summon the figure here.

On Kodana's side, because of his own loss of consciousness, and the fact that this power was very sudden and very powerful, he instantly transmitted Kodana into his underwater palace. When Kordana suddenly saw the palace of Radiant Hongda, she thought she was doing a kind of daydreaming, because everything in front of her was exactly the same as the capital city of Azhara where the Night Elves and the High Scriptures lived together 10,000 years ago. Yes, he dreams like this almost every week, but this time it was so real that it wasn't like a dream...

"It's not a dream! it's Naga!" The immersed Kodana was about to take out her weapon against these creatures that she regarded as mortal enemies after seeing Naga, but at this moment, behind these neat Naga, an irresistible voice gave her an order. Although 10,000 years have passed, and she has long regarded this voice as a mortal enemy in her heart, she still knelt down unconsciously.

"Kodana, right, it's still as stubborn as the first time you entered the palace..."

That voice spoke, if it was just to look at the elegance of his appearance and the perfection of his physical curves, I am afraid that Tyrande would also be ashamed of himself, let alone Kodana herself. It was still the same feeling as before, the same feeling of oppression as before, but when she unconsciously looked up at her legs, she also realized that she, the former light of the light, had become the queen of Naga. But even so, she didn't have any guts to disobey after her death.

"Obey orders... Empress Essara"

To this, the former light of the light laughed out loud, she had thought that she would need some means to make them surrender, apparently this was superfluous, she did not say anything about it, but personally lifted the excited tearful priestess.

"My people still need me, don't they?"

"There is no doubt that we will fight for you, as I promised before, and our people have promised, Your Majesty..."

"Why did you surrender to me like this, I almost destroyed this world, or did you say that you were afraid that I would kill you to be pious to me?"

"No, these 10,000 years of experience have taught me that the justice we do is only subordinate to the justice of the few, and you summoned the Burning Legion as an attempt to weigh a power, only to be robbed of fame by Malfurion. ”

Hearing Kodana's answer, Aishara was very satisfied, yes, she was right, she did think so. She just wanted to use the power of the Burning Legion and the Old Gods to have a duel, otherwise the deep corruption of the Old Gods against them or the sneak infiltration of the Burning Legion would cause a catastrophe to this world, so instead of waiting for death, it would be better to try to intervene them all to take a look.

Then they didn't say anything, but Kordana explained to Azhara in detail and without reservation about almost everything from the ascension of the World Tree to the recent incident of Illidan and Mavi's gang against the Scourge Legion, but Azhara is Azhara, and with the power of a guardian dragon, she can easily see that the current war between the Alliance and the Horde is still caused by someone, and she immediately thought of Deathwing. She was also convinced that Deathwing was now in the middle of the battle between the Scourge and Illidan. But he wasn't afraid of Deathwing, not even when he was about to get the undead and the remnants of the Burning Legion. Because he knows Deathwing's weakness, which is that he will never lose out on things that he has not calculated.

With this in mind, Azhara decided to stop most of the preparatory activities. It's just to let one of her henchmen, Vasqi's army, act alone, and the purpose of letting her act alone is nothing more than to let the mortals on earth understand that the Naga race is led by Vasqi, not herself, and this purpose is to give everyone an illusion that she is still dead... She knew, however, that when everyone realized that she was alive, it would be the time when she would regain domination of the world, and that her 10,000 years of humiliation would be unleashed on the rest of the world.

Digression: (This chapter is the High Elf during this period of time, which also leads to some of the next plots, and this chapter does not affect the main progression)
