As if to show the majesty of the lord and echo the threat of King Terenus, the royal guards of Lordaeron behind him drew their weapons one after another, and in front of the gate of Dunhold Castle under the double moon, the atmosphere became tense for a while. Several members of the Iron Horse Brotherhood looked at Anduin in unison? Lothar, waiting for his instructions, did not expect the shape to turn sharply and become a little dramatic.

"His Majesty the King!" As soon as King Terenus finished speaking, a slightly obese soldier in rudimentary chain mail ran out of Dunhold Castle and came to King Terenus's horse, humbly bent down, and bowed to King Terenus almost ninety degrees.

The soldier's belly is not small, so it is very difficult to make such a move. Despite the seemingly non-threatening appearance, a royal guard of Lordaeron planned to step forward and keep the unknown soldier out of the way of the lord.

"Your Majesty, Captain Ruhr, the leader of the militia squad from the hills of Hillsbrad salutes you." As if sensing the hostility of King Terenus's guards, the soldier introduced himself.

Lordaeron's soldiers were divided into soldiers and militiamen, the soldiers usually wore standard plate armor and a robe embroidered with a double-headed eagle insignia on the chest, while the militia was equipped with a variety of equipment, and the chain mail worn by this soldier was indeed the attire of the militia squad leader.

"Salute to you too, my warrior, please keep your head up." King Terenus's tone was a little calmer - soldiers and militiamen, even ordinary farmers, deserved the respect of King Terenus if they took up arms to defend the land of Lordaeron.

"Yes, His Majesty." Ruhl, the leader of the militia, looked up excitedly and looked at King Terenus's face; However, he immediately realized that his behavior was a bit rude, and quickly lowered his head slightly.

"Ruhl, are you the militia captain of Dunhold Castle? These Riptide Fort soldiers...... What's going on? Seeing the presence of his subjects, King Terenus realized that things might not be the same as he had assumed, and asked Ruhr about it.

"As you can see. His Majesty King Terenas. Am I Soras? Son of Tolbane, Garin? Thorbain. On my father's orders, I took my men from Riptide Castle to Dunhold Castle to help the lord hunt down the traitors who had colluded with the orcs. Ruhl hasn't spoken yet. A heavily armed warrior with a blue headband stepped out of Dunhold Castle and stood not far from King Terenus' horse, bowing to him slightly.

"Garin?" King Terenus, who apparently knew the prince of Rapids, rolled over and dismounted, and his calfskin boots stamped on the dirt road in front of Dunhold Castle. Came to Prince Garin.

Anduin? Lothar and the others also turned over and dismounted, and on the side, the soldiers of Fort Rapids stepped forward and grabbed the reins of their horses. Seeing that King Terenas had confirmed the identity of the other party, and Ruhr's existence had proved that there was indeed an inside story here, Lothar did not stop the actions of these Riptide Fort soldiers and came to King Terenus's side.

"Do you remember me?" Garin laughed and asked King Terenus.

"Of course." King Terenus replied with a smile, and then introduced Prince Garin to Anduin? The identities of Lothar and Varian.

On hearing Anduin? After Lothar's name, a trace of excitement clearly flashed in Prince Garin's eyes, and he asked Anduin? Lothar and Varian nodded in salute, turning sideways. He made an inviting gesture, "Your Majesty King Terenus, there's a lot going on at Dunhold Castle, let's go to the council chamber and talk about it!" ”

King Terenus didn't care that Garin was putting on a master's posture on his territory, but said casually, "That's fine. With that, he took the lead and walked towards the interior of Dunhold Castle.

Although the previous Riptide Castle soldiers stood at the door with great fanfare and lit torches, the interior of Könhold Castle was already silent.

King Terenus, who stepped into the castle, saw a man with a disheveled head and a wooden pole tethered to a spear, and then stopped. With some hesitation, he said, "...... Blackmore? ”

"Woo ......" Although the man seemed to be asleep before, he immediately raised his head when he heard the voice of King Terenus. The body also struggled violently.

But several spears tied together were driven deep into the ground, and the man's mouth was gagged with a mass of rags, so that he could only make a muffled sound.

King Terenus's expression became stern, he turned to look at Prince Garin, and said with some anger, "Prince Garin, you didn't mean. Are you here to help Blackmore catch the traitors? Why did you imprison him instead? Since when did Riptide Castle have the power to deal with lords for Lordaeron? “

King Terenus knew Blackmore, a lord whose family originally lived in the hills of Hillsbrad, and was a prominent family that was related to the royal families of many kingdoms.

However, during the invasion of the Hillsbrad Hills by the Kingdom of Gilneth years ago, Blackmore's father was stripped of his territory for treason, and then sent to a remote post on the border by King Terenus.

Although the relationship with the Blackmore family was not harmonious, King Terenus, as the lord of Blackmore, naturally could not watch the nobles who were vassals of him receive such treatment.

At the signal of King Terenus, several of the royal guards of Lordaeron drew their weapons from the scabbards that had been withdrawn from their waists, and faced Garin in a defensive posture? Thorbane; At the same time, there is also a royal guard of Lordaeron who wants to come to Blackmore's side and free the wolf bèi lord.

"Ah...... This ......" Prince Garin didn't care about the blades that were faintly pointing at him, but summoned the royal guard of Lordaeron who wanted to liberate Blackmore, and then explained to King Terenus: "Your Majesty King Terenus, Blackmore is trapped here...... It was your son, the Prince of Alsace, who made the decision. ”

"Arthas?" King Terenus was stunned for a moment, beckoned to the royal guard of Lordaeron, and then looked at Garin, waiting for his explanation.

Varian moved faster, he rushed to Prince Garin's side, grabbed his arm, and said eagerly, "Have you seen Arthas?" How is he? There's nothing dangerous, right? Is he here now? ”

Varian used a lot of force, and Garin's strong body was pulled and shook by him. In Varian's expectant eyes, and King Terenus's slightly worried gaze, Garin? Torbain told the truth about his encounter with Arthas, and the whereabouts of the Prince of Lordaeron: "Prince Arthas has left here and gone to the fortress of Dammod. Although it was Blackmore who initially sent my father a plea for help, and I was sent here to assist him in the hunt for the traitor, when the Prince of Alsace arrived, he found ......"
