While the elves were still in the Twilight Heights, the war in the outside world continued.

Gilnes's exit and Alterac's betrayal have made the already disadvantaged alliance even worse. Although they sent a large number of troops to the front, bravely and without fear of sacrifice, the battle line kept moving north.

The wetlands have fallen, and now the southern continent has completely fallen into the territory of the orcs.

Luckily, no one leaked the news of Kael'thas leaving, and Lothar even had some of Dalaran's mages create illusions of the elven prince to confuse them, so that neither the orcs nor trolls of the tribe were aware that a group of elves were still on the southern continent.

After the wetlands were captured, the battle was temporarily at a stalemate.

The only way between the northern and southern continents was the Sador Bridge across the ocean, a massive bridge made by the dwarves that would be very advantageous to the coalition in charge of defense, and the constant attacks of the tribes were forcefully resisted.

Orgrim, the leader of the orc tribe, was unusually annoyed by this situation, and his inaction on land led him to launch several crossings of the sea. However, the difference in naval strength between the two sides was too great, and the orcs still did not succeed despite the best efforts of Kurtilas's defense.

So Orgrim waited, his Black Dragon forces had been so consumed in the previous war that they were now unable to break through the griffin knights' tight defenses. The Dragonthroat Clan reported to Orgrim that they were looking for more air power, and they could provide him with a large number of red dragons right away.

It's exciting!

As a result, Orgrim temporarily slowed down the pace of his attack and began to digest the territory and resources taken from the previous war. He had the orcs loot, build new bases, and prepare more supplies.

As soon as the new air power arrives, the orcs can take advantage of the skies and break through the Alliance's defenses in one fell swoop.

Orgrim and his orcs, including a large number of troll allies, had no doubt about the victory of the war. The human kingdom is torn apart, there is only one of the three dwarves left, and the dwarfs have long been resolved, how can such a tattered and fragile alliance be lost by a powerful and fanatical tribe now?

[This world belongs to the orcs. 】

Even Lothar, as the commander of the Alliance, couldn't help but realize this with some despair.

At one of the Alliance's command posts in the Arathi Heights, Lothar greeted Uther, who had just returned from Alterac.

"How's Alterac doing?"

After the greetings, Lothar, whose sideburns had already appeared white, asked Uther.

The long-term and urgent war, the tense heartstrings all the time, have made this middle-aged commander more and more old.

"Not ideal."

Uther looked at Lothar with some sigh, and then answered his question:

"After we declared that the royal family in Alterac had been outlawed for betraying humanity, the situation became even more chaotic."

"Many nobles and forces have sprung up, claiming that they do not accept Lordaeron's rule, and the whole of Alterac has become a miasma."

This is the heavenly surname of mankind, and when a king disappears, there are countless people who want that position. Lordaeron is just a pretense, as a nobleman and a power, how many people are really fighting for the country?

The nobles and forces of Alterac just want to make the situation chaotic so that Lordaeron cannot control them and compete for the throne.

"They've really found a good time."

Lothar snorted coldly, if it were normal, these actions of those young people would definitely be meaningless, and other kingdoms could easily overwhelm them.

But now, the main spirit of the alliance is in the war with the orcs, and it is impossible to send a large number of men and minds to Alterac. Those people understand this, and they will be unscrupulous.

"After all, we humans are still not united enough."

Uther smiled wryly.

"In fact, His Majesty King Tenaris has promised to save the situation if these people stop the struggle and help the Alliance. He would make an Alterac king after the war was over. ”

The king of Lordaeron was a well-known and wise king, and he made such a decision to give up the opportunity to increase his land, which is also the reason why he was truly selfless and looked at the whole world.

"But those people didn't take it, did they?"

Lothar went on to say that he could tell the result from Uther's expression.

"Of course, those people don't believe in King Tenaris."

Uther nodded:

"They think that even if Lordaeron fulfills his promise, he will make a puppet king."

In the human world, this idea of vigilance may be correct. However, because of this, it is sad.

Lothar knew King Tenaris better than anyone, and he was definitely not a king who would do things in secret.

A few years ago, when Lothar came to this land with the remnants of the Stormwind Kingdom and the refugees, it was the king of Lordaeron who did not mind receiving their group of ruined people with solemn etiquette. He treated Lothar and Varian as equals, recognizing Varian as king. Then he bothered to organize the formation of the Alliance, and proposed to make Lothar the supreme commander of the Alliance.

Tenaris has always been helping others, and he has never asked for anything in return. In recent years, Lothar has often run around for the sake of the Alliance, and during this time, Terenus has taken on the responsibility of mentoring Varian.

Lothar has watched Varian change and grow, and he has become even better than Lothar imagined, even if he has no country in the land, in terms of ability and character, Varian is still a good king.

No one would be more grateful to Tyrenus than Lothar and Varian.

Therefore, when she heard that the aristocratic forces of Alterac were suspicious of Terenus, Lothar couldn't help but feel a little angry in her heart.

Of course, he won't show that anger.

"What is Your Majesty Terenus going to do now? Need our help? ”

Lothar then asked, and after settling the matter with Alterac, most of the Alliance soldiers returned, leaving Alterac to be dealt with by Lordaeron himself.

At the beginning, they also expected that there would be a lot of trouble, so they also put some excellent professionals over there to help, Uther was one of them, and now that he has returned, there are basically few people in the league who are still in Alterac.

"I don't think it's worth worrying about."

Uther smiled:

"His Majesty Tenaris said he could handle it, and he let those young men"

"Of course, this refers to Kalia, Varian, and the others."

He added:

"Your Majesty Terenus has asked a few of them to deal with the affairs of Alterac."

If anyone else sounds like this, they will think that this king is very reckless. But neither of the two people present would think like this, they knew what the two young men were capable of, and Terenus must have wanted to train them.

[No, I guess I want to train Varian.] 】

Lothar thought with certainty in her heart that Kalia was just a cover for Lordaeron's identity, and Tyrenus should mainly want to exercise Varian's ruling ability, he was different from the king of Kul Tiras, and he decided in his heart that a woman could not be a king, so how could he train his daughter?

"Is Arthas and Gianna too?"

Lothar thought for a moment, and then asked.

"Yes."

Uther nodded.

His nod dispelled the last trace of worry and doubt in Lothar's heart, and it seemed that Terenus was really exercising the child.

Alsace was his beloved child, and he must have arranged to be there to show him.

At the same time, the heirs of several kingdoms in Alterac, whether it is Lordaeron, Kurtilas, or Dalaran, will definitely ensure their safety.

In this way, Lothar can also not worry about this group of children and Alterac at all, and the most important thing for him now is still to look at the battlefield.

"Then let's believe the young people."

Lothar's face relaxed, and then he smiled:

"They're going to make it."

It is still the time of the war, and it is not necessary for the Kalia and the others to completely control Alterac, they only need to control the wars and contradictions in that kingdom within a certain range, and do not affect the actions of the entire alliance.

Lothar no longer expects reinforcements from Alterac, it just needs not to cause trouble, and when this war is over, the alliance has absolute certainty that the problem will be solved there.

"I also believe that Varian will succeed."

Uther narrowed her eyes and laughed:

"Those younger generations are much stronger than the older generation."

Since the Orc War, not to mention anyone else, just Kalia. Uther's strength and charisma during the war amazed Uther, and in Uther's memory, there was no woman as outstanding as Kalia.

Once upon a time, there was a woman named Egwen, who claimed to be the strongest person in the whole world. But in fact, in addition to being strong in strength, she is far inferior to Kalia in terms of connections, surname, and spirit.

Kalia is a noble person who combines strength and faith, Uther once took Kalia to Quel'Salas when he was a child, and at that time, he would never have thought of today's result.

I thought it was a joke of a young child, but who would have thought that she would really become a good knight?

"So it's a good time, old friend."

Lothar smiled, and suddenly said to Uther with a different title:

"We have the best juniors."

Whether it's humans or elves, young people are so good, and that's something to be happy about.

If we can work together to overcome the difficulties, then these young people will also have common values in the future and build a better world.

"Our responsibility is to win this war, no matter what the cost."

"This is the best thank you for these juniors and for the future."
