Before we left, Gallisus came from the palace gate to see me off, it was not easy to see me at this time when I had just attended the meeting, and I was not surprised that he did not occupy my side, and I did not have any resentment, after all, according to the original timeline, Lordaeron would have to rely on him in the future, and it was just at this time that I would give him instructions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Your Highness, you really insist on fleeing without a fight, is the enemy really so strong. ”

Before I could greet him, he asked me questions, obviously he didn't understand my choice, or he was hesitant to follow me, perhaps, but I didn't have the time or the need to persuade him and his troops to join me.

"Yes, I'm sure you know that if I had a chance of winning, I'd do my best, but this time we have no chance of winning here. ”

"But even if it were true, I would not be able to disobey the king. ”

"Everyone has their own choice, I don't force you. "I don't know if he meant it, but I had no reason not to trust the general, especially since he was still coming to see me. "As long as you don't go against your will..."

"Well, what can I do for you, if things really go as you say...."

"After the Demon King appears, we must preserve our strength and avoid his edge. ”

"Hiding from the edge, aren't we just waiting to be killed?"

"Their target is not our continent, but the Kalimdor continent where I am going, and when we go there and unite with other races to destroy the Adversary, you will also unite the various races here to regain the lost territory. I said as I remembered. "But remember, don't be prejudiced against other races in any way, even orcs and trolls should be trusted in the fight against demons, and of course elves, gnomes, and dwarves should be regarded as our own kind. ”

"Why do you say that? ”

"For only then will there be a way out of our world, remember my words, Lord Lord. ”

"I'll keep that in mind. ”

Hearing his assurance, I still didn't feel at ease and rode the 'invincible' to set off, yes, it was because of his arrogance and extremism that he threw the elves into the tribe... Thinking of this, I couldn't help but turn around again, and went back to Garissus, who was watching me, and continued to repeat the explanation.

"Also, don't be angry with them just because the culprit is the elves this time, when the time comes, he will treat them as if they were just like us, remember, remember. ”

"Well..."

Seeing that he agreed with some puzzlement, I didn't say anything, yes, I can only say it here.

......

The more we got to Quel'Thalas, the more information we got to it, and although we hadn't seen it in person all the way, both the villagers and the garrison were very sure that the creatures had appeared, so I just told them to prepare for a retreat to the south, and hurried forward.

It wasn't until the northern end of the Tirisfal Glade near the border area of the elves that I finally met the demons I had seen in Statom, although this was not the first time I had encountered them, but this time I still maintained twelve points of vigilance when I saw them, their armor formed by natural, and several times of fleshy thick bodies still made me remember, but compared to these, I was more worried that everyone would be afraid of their appearance during the decisive battle, and I don't know if we would be able to maintain a brave heart when our main force fought against them.

And that's why I only brought my guards, because they've all been through the fight with them, and have experience fighting them, and at least I can guarantee that they won't be overwhelmed by the demons.

It was an unexpected encounter with four or five demon squads who were intimidating us without blindly attacking. It also seems to indicate that these creatures also have a basic understanding, and I don't know how many of them are, so I have to do it myself before they can summon their companions.

At my command, they were quickly resolved. Although it was easier this time, as I entered the border area, more and more demons appeared, which still made me feel a little nervous, and I worried about worse things...

"Your Highness, could it be that Quel'Salas has already been captured?"

"No, it won't. Although he didn't have any proof, he could only comfort his guards in this way, until he reached the trading post with Quel'Salas, and he began to waver.

It was once a very wealthy place, and the combination of elven and human-style architecture is a testament to the harmony between our two races. It was only with the tension on the border and the outbreak of war with Gilneth that it completely decayed, but there are still many residents living here, but now it is a scorched trace, and the mutilated corpses on the ground and the spilled goods and goods are enough to verify that this place was slaughtered, not for money, or worldly slaughter, so there can only be one explanation for this, and that is the devil. They attacked here, and in the direction of the north, and perhaps that says a lot about what we were worried about.

At this time, I was glad that a ranger appeared, because I could ask him about their situation and news of her.

"Your Highness Arthas, it's a pleasure to meet you... Didn't you send an army over?" he spoke with a hesitant look, perhaps with his own unspeakable secrets, but I didn't notice it immediately, and was concerned about what I was worried about.

"Where's Sylvanas? ”

"We haven't seen the general for a long time, maybe Lotherma knows better. ”

"So where is he. ”

"At the city gates. He pointed in the direction of the gate on the border with Quel'Salas.

"Is he okay?"

"We're all good...."

He said with some shame, and I felt something when I saw him intact.

"The devil isn't targeting you, is it!" I said solemnly, holding on to his shoulder, and his speechless look completely explained my guess. "So what are you all doing? Watching the humans around you suffer from the bloodshed.

"Lothema won't let us out of the city, I'm only here to investigate the situation here, and I'll report back. ”

Hearing this, he rode his horse to the elf gate in anger to find the friend who did not act...

"You'd better give me an explanation of why this is happening!" But I made my way to the Elven Gate, and when I saw him and his party greeting me, I did not show any politeness, but immediately dismounted and rebuked him. In this regard, he seems very innocent.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness Arthas, Prince Kael'thas has ordered us not to leave the city, and not to let any humans in. ”

"Kael'thas!" I wanted to scold him angrily, but now that I was in the territory of the elves, I couldn't do that, or before they knew the truth, so I had to tell them what had happened and persuade them to convince them to confront their own prince...."But you don't intend to obey his orders, you yourself are now out of the city, and you let your subordinates go to investigate the situation there. ”

"It's very, necessary for us, and I have to figure out what's going on. ”

"Very well, Lotherma, then I'll tell you the truth!" I lowered my tone. "How would you feel if you knew that your prince had summoned? I said this, and he didn't show much of a difference, which seemed to indicate that he had guessed that this would be the outcome. "I'm sure you doubted it, too. ”

"It's nothing more than the same as gray temples...", he said helplessly, although his mouth was so, but his heart was very unwilling...

"You chose to obey orders!"

"I'm an elf..."

"But he is not your king yet, and this matter must be known to Darth Rema, so that he can make a reasonable decision, and if you think that you should obey the orders of your heart, then you should also obey the king's orders, not a prince. ”

I harshly rebuked the loyal general, and at this moment, Nathanos next to me told me a common sense.

"The rangers are all subordinate to Kael'thas and we are almost to the prince what your guards are to you..."

Listening to what he said, I also realized something, so I was ready to retreat to the next best.

"Well, then I'm not going to force you anything, tell me where Sylvanas is?"

"I haven't seen her since she came back, and she should still be at home. ”

"Damn, she's in danger. Hearing this, her anger rose again, yes, if she was really just at home, then it was absolutely impossible for her to lose contact with Ronin, and Ronin said that this message was intercepted by Kael'thas, then Sylvanas's loss of contact must have something to do with him. I'll have to go to the Sunwell myself to stop Kael'thas and convince the Rangers to obey my orders.

"Why do you say that? Lotherma asked curiously, and I regained my composure.

"Well, if you remember Frost Sorrow, the same weapon that made Gianna and I lose our nature, and it's in your prince's possession right now. ”

"What!"

"He is controlled by demons, and everything he does is for their ultimate master, the leader of the Burning Legion, to come to this world. ”

"Are you sure?" asked Lotherma, as if he wanted to have such suspicions, but as a courtier, he did not transgress in his thoughts.

"If you remember why Aurelia's expeditionary force went to the Outlands for the sake of those few demon-summoning artifacts, and now that they're all close to your sunwell, if any of you know the spells, they used to be nearby. ”

My words drew his thoughts, but he soon made up his mind.

"So what do you want, if you don't bring the army, it's very difficult for us to stop this. ”

Lotherma was convinced by me, and I immediately told him my next plan.

"No, we can convince you king!"

"How can His Majesty the King doubt the prince because of our wording. ”

"I don't know, but for the sake of you elves, for the sake of our continent not to be infested by demons, isn't it worth giving it a try?"

"I know that if you are willing to take risks like this, then I am also ready to bear the charge of betrayal. ”

"It's a responsibility, a responsibility for your people. "I confessed to him, and I whispered to him a promise: 'Maybe you'll understand!'

"So what do we do?"

"Come with me to your king and rescue Sylvanas!"

"Good. ”

Lotherma commanded his men, and the rangers I knew well supported our actions, so we headed north together, toward the second gate.
