"Hoo ......"

Aurelia breathed a sigh of relief—she had finally lived up to the expectations of the kings of Arthas and Terenus; But only after that, the High Elf Ranger leader remembered...... Even if he and Sylvanas fail, isn't there still frost sorrow?

Aurelia was right—Frost Sorrow was a little upset right now, as she felt the two High Elves steal the limelight. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the contrary, Arthas looked a little depressed - he felt more and more that his father was not right - could it be that King Terenus knew the strength of Frost Grief so well that he could be sure that he would not be hurt?

Linked to his father's strange actions after he and Frost Sorrow traveled through time, Arthas felt more and more suspicious - why...... As if his father knew more about Frost's sorrow than he did?

King Terenus, completely unaware of his son's concerns, looked at Jean Greymane in front of him with emotion.

"It's been six years, Jean, and it's been six years since we last met."

King Terenus said earnestly, and it didn't seem like Gene Greyman's men were trying to kill him for a second.

"Twenty-six years, Terenus. We're all old. ”

Gene Greymane had returned to his normal expression, and said with emotion as if nothing had happened just now.

King Terenus nodded—twenty-six years ago, he and Jean Greymane were two young men with great friendships, with a noble position and a bright future.

King Terenus, who was also a prince of the kingdom, had a very good relationship with Jean Greymane, and the prince of the kingdom of Gilneys even lived in the palace of Lordaeron for a time, where he was taught by the scholars of the kingdom of Lordaeron.

They rode horses together, practiced martial arts together, won the eyes of all beautiful maidens at dinners and balls, talked about politics, people's livelihood and history together, and fantasized together about the majestic orders that would make the country stable and stable after they became kings.

When he saw Jean Greymane, King Terenus seemed to see his own youth, a youth that was long gone, but still made him miss it immensely.

"So, Jean, what did you want to tell me when you called me?"

King Terenus asked with a smile as he broke free from his memories of the past.

"That's right, Terenus. What we have is time to reminisce about the past, but the present ...... I need you to take your men with you, to leave my country, to leave my land—and to let go of those you have taken captive, for I know you will not kill them all. ”

Jean Greymane's face softened a little more than he had at first, but he said in a resolute tone.

"Hah! It's funny, if I'm not mistaken, since our father's generation, the Silver Pines Forest has been the domain of Lordaeron, are you sure...... Have my people entered your country? ”

King Terenus let out a chuckle, oblivious to Jean Greyman's somewhat embarrassed face.

"You know what I'm talking about, Terenus. I'll admit that you have an advantage first, but we have this. ”

Jean Greymane turned his head and pointed to the majestic Wall of Greymane, his last reliance and his only advantage against other human nations.

"Do you think this line of defense can keep our army out forever? Come on, Jean, you know that's impossible. We have more troops, more land, more food, and you...... I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but behind this high wall...... It shouldn't be a bustling city, right? How long do you think you and your people will be able to hold out? We could besiege this place for ten years, and you ...... Will your reserves of grain and salt last that long?

The nation of Terenas was unconcerned about Jean Greymane's dependence.

"You don't have any more people, Terenus. I know Solas hasn't arrived yet, Dalaran isn't supporting you, Stormwind is too far away, and Dalyn is blocked out of that reef, you don't have an advantage, Terenus. ”

Jean Greymane replied, somewhat unconvinced.

"In fact, Solas has arrived, and at the time of the latest news he was three days away; Daelin and his navy really couldn't get to the shores of Gilney, but ...... You don't think we're going to start this war without any preparation, do you? If I were you, I would remove both the civilians and the military along the coast, so that they would not die in vain. ”

King Terenus replied unceremoniously.

"Even then, you won't be able to breach the gates."

Jean Greymane shook his head, he had always had faith in the line of defense - the ancestors of the Kingdom of Gilneth had failed to get out of the wall, but the other enemies had paid more for their attempts to enter it.

Everyone knew that the Wall of Greymane was a fortress that did not fall, and Jean Greymane felt that he was at least invincible.

"We'll see, Jean, wait and see."

King Terenus smiled and said - even the strongest fortress needs the wisest commanders and the most elite soldiers to be called "invincible" - whether it is the command of Jean Greymane or the military quality of the kingdom/army of Gilneys, there is too far from the best.

"I don't think we have much more to say, Terenus. If you want this land, take it yourself. ”

Jean Greymane shook his head and said, turning to leave.

"Surrender, Jean, you know you can't win. I guarantee that you can own a part of the land of Gilneys, you can keep the title of king, you can keep a part of the army and the name of the kingdom, you can trust me, as an old friend. ”

King Terenus called out to Jean Greymane and said sincerely.

"Surrender? Terenas ...... If you were me, you might make that choice, but I wouldn't. I have not been able to carve out even a penny of land for the Gilnes family, and I will not give up at least half of it - unless I die. ”

Jean Greymane listened carefully to King Terenus's terms for his surrender, and then refused.

"Think of the civilians and soldiers behind that wall, Jean. Their allegiance to House Greymane is not for you to lead them to their death. ”

King Terenus warned.
