After the grand dinner, it was getting dark.

Kael'thas returned to the cave, talked to Mephites about something, and then fell asleep by the campfire.

All the female elves, including Aurelia, finally gave up the cave to them and went to the cave of the ordinary female elves together. Anyway, it's better to pitch a cave than a tent outside.

The nights in Danmoro are a nightmare, no matter how warm the tent is, it will give you a chill like ice and snow in the cold wind at night.

It was quiet inside the cave, and Kael'thas slept well at first, but after some unknown time, he felt the sound of Mephites in action.

"What's wrong, teacher?"

Kael'thas opened his eyes and asked Mephites with a tired expression.

By the time he woke up, Mephites had already stood up, staring out with a frosty expression.

"Your Highness, an old friend has come over."

Mephites replied, and Kael'thas's first reaction was that Onexia had returned.

But when he saw the old mage's expression, he felt a chill on his body, and realized that the person who came here was not a welcoming person.

So who is it?

Kael'thas soon knew, and without any reaction outside, an elf appeared and slowly walked in.

The black and purple mage robes, the pale hair, the appearance of a young man.

It's Darkan, a High Elf saint-level mage.

"Mephites, your vigilance hasn't been lowered at all."

With a smile on his face, Darkan said a word to Mephites, and then turned his gaze to Kael'thas:

"Your Royal Highness, it's great that you're safe and sound."

Mephites looked at him cautiously, and the other party's attitude looked normal, as if he didn't know the change in Quel'Thalas.

"What are you doing here? Darkan? ”

Mephites spoke, not in a very good tone.

"Huh? Is there something happening to Quel'Thalas? ”

Kael'thas, who didn't know the truth yet, then asked, he didn't clearly antagonize Darkan now, so he didn't show malice.

"Don't you know?"

Darkan was a little surprised, he looked at his old friend with a blank face, and did not draw a conclusion.

But Kael'thas had doubts on his face, not like he was pretending.

"Your Highness, the rune stone of Quel'Salas has been stolen by the orcs."

Darkan did not doubt it, and opened his mouth to answer.

"How could it be that it was stolen!?"

Kael'thas opened his eyes wide in disbelief:

"I've prepared so many defenses, how can I be stolen?"

Moreover, this matter, he obviously wrote a letter to King Anastarian to pay attention to, how could it be stolen without a sound?

How can runestones be stolen!?

If the orcs make the ogre stronger, what will happen to the whole battle?

Now that the Alliance is on the back burner and the Horde has received new weapons, the news is nothing short of terrible news for Kael'thas.

"How many elves were hurt? What about our forests? ”

Kael'thas continued to nervously ask, and while Aurelia's brother and family had been relocated by him, there were still many elven villages established on the border.

"No civilians were harmed, and no forests, Your Highness, were destroyed."

Darkan bowed his head and replied, now he didn't suspect anything.

"The orcs who came to offend didn't pass through the defenses you set up, but they had a few legendary professionals who sneaked into Quel'Thalas and stole the runestones."

The whole thing is in Darkan's control, and it is natural to talk about it.

Kael'thas was relieved when he heard that there were no casualties.

"Are you going to retrieve the Runestone, then?"

He instinctively guessed why Darkan was here.

"Well, His Majesty asked me to recover that runestone."

Darkan didn't blink an eye, and replied half-truthfully:

"I followed the breath of the rune stone all the way to this side, just in time to come and see His Highness."

He was just a whim, just to see.

Mephites' heart couldn't help but let go, but he still maintained a cold face and kept silent.

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with His Highness's situation now, so I'd better leave immediately."

Darkan smiled, he sensed Mephites' attitude, and he didn't have much interest in staying:

"Can you give me some food? Hurried out, without anything to eat. ”

He continues to ask Kael'thas that, like Mephites, he doesn't like to eat his own bread.

"Okay."

Kael'thas nodded immediately, and then walked out of the cave and instructed a few elves on duty to prepare the rest of the roast for Darkan tonight.

"Thank you."

Darkan put the roast into his space, then smiled at Mephites, chanted the spell, and disappeared.

Compared to running on the snow and feeling cold, of course, it is convenient to teleport.

"Teacher, what the hell is going on?"

"Why didn't you tell me?"

When Darkan left, Kael'thas couldn't help but ask Mephites a question.

The letter was delivered to King Anastarian by Mephitaus, and there was no reason why he could not be heard.

Why hide it from Kael'thas ?

Mephites shook his head:

"I don't mean to hide it, but the rune stone matter involves more things, and I think it's better not to let you know about it so early."

He didn't expect that Darkan would appear silently, and he almost couldn't help but make a move just now.

"What's involved?"

Kael'thas frowned, he remembered Mephites' expression just now, and vaguely realized:

"Darkan?"

“”

Mephites was startled, and then looked at Kael'thas with incredulity, feeling a little terrified by his acuity:

"That's right, it's Darkan."

He collected his thoughts and nodded slowly:

"The theft of the runestone happened entirely under Darkan's nose."

"And His Majesty Anastarian, who saw it all with his own eyes."

Mephites put a mocking smile on his lips:

"So Your Majesty sent Darkan out and took the opportunity to get rid of his minions."

"This time, Darkan also suffered on his own."

[Darkan was discovered? 】

At this moment, Kael'thas couldn't keep his composure, Darkan had always been the one he desperately wanted to solve but couldn't solve, and unknowingly, he was discovered by King Anastarian?

It's really in response to the old saying - there is nowhere to find it when you step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

Just now, Kael'thas was still worried about the runestone, but he suddenly received the news, and he was very happy and worried, and the things of life are always so magical.

"Looking at the situation just now, hasn't Darkan found out yet?"

Kael'thas tried his best to contain his feelings, but there was also a hint of joy on his face that could not be concealed, and he then remembered what had just happened:

"What is Father going to do with him?"

A saint-level mage is very difficult to deal with.

"Your Majesty has blocked the news, and when Darkan returns to Quel'Thalas, take him down in one fell swoop."

Mephiteres replied:

"I'm guessing the Sunwell's Spellbreaker forces should be in action."

Spellbreaker, this is the most powerful weapon against a mage's team, Quel'Salas.

But Kael'thas was still a little uneasy.

He was aware of his mentor's strength, but according to Mephites, Darkan was no worse than him.

Such a powerful mage, if he doesn't solve it for a day, is a scourge, especially since he is still outside.

If Darkan finds out that something is wrong and attacks the elves, then even if Kael'thas is okay, the other elves will suffer.

"I'll go out for a while."

He decided to sober his head and wonder if there was a way to eliminate Darkan.

However, Kael'thas stood outside for more than 10 minutes, and he didn't draw any conclusions. In the face of great power, there is almost no strategy to speak of.

[Can you only watch fate? 】

Kael'thas thought helplessly, he shook his head, but suddenly saw Solan Lian'an's figure.

"Your Highness, don't stay outside for too long."

For some unknown reason, Solanlian noticed Kael'thas and came out of the cave to persuade Kael'thas.

"Solan Lianne."

Kael'thas saw her eyes light up, and asked with some urgency:

"You can see the fate trajectory around me, right?"

He remembered the mystical abilities of this sorcerer, and perhaps this could give him an answer.

"I can't see much, and if His Highness wants to know something specific, it's almost impossible."

Solan Liane seemed to have guessed Kael'thas intentions, and refused without hesitation:

"My ability is very small, I can only see the trajectory around His Highness."

Kael'thas was stunned for a moment, he thought for a moment, and then pulled Solan Lian to a remote place.

"Darkan, can you see his fate?"

This name cannot be heard by other elves, causing fluctuations.

"Master Darkan? Unfortunately, he couldn't. ”

Solan Lian shook her head:

"His power is too strong for me to peep into."

It seems that her power also has a huge constraint - it is impossible to predict the trajectory of the powerful.

For example, Solanlian could have foreseen that Kael'thas was going to face a great darkness, but if the dark subject was too strong, she wouldn't know even if she was standing in front of her.

"There's no way to do it?"

Kael'thas had some regrets and didn't want to give up easily.

"Well, if you want to talk about a way, there is also a way to improve my strength."

Solanlian nodded, then looked up at Kael'thas with some hesitation:

"If Your Highness is willing to lend me strength, I may be able to do it."

"You want strength, huh? It's easy, I can lend it to you. ”

Kael'thas was pleasantly surprised:

"How did I give it to you?"

In his mind, borrowing power is to help draw a magic circle, cast a spell, and at most to output some magic power.

However, the next moment, Solan Lian's words made Kael'thas stunned.

"Your Highness, then, please kiss me!"

The sorcerer looked up, his face slightly red.

She pretended to be calm, but her lips trembled slightly in the night breeze.

Kiss!?
