"That's right, Cormier."

"Has anyone in the clan been injured during this time?"

Old Tang really asked casually.

After asking for help from Old Tang, Gianna also revealed the strength of some of the envoys. It can be said that although Varian's envoy corps is not large in number, its combat effectiveness is definitely not weak. A Varian at the beginning of the Heroic Rank, a priest with an entourage of the Ninth Order, and eight King Guards at the peak of the Eighth Order......

Although the division between the first and first levels of Azeroth's strength level is extremely clear, it does not mean that the difference in strength between the ranks is only an equal increase, but there are three obvious watersheds: between the fifth and sixth ranks, between the eighth and ninth orders, and the threshold for entering the hero level.

For example, if a soldier enters the sixth order, he can be called elite. Putting aside the mutual restraint between professions, it is no longer just a literal boast;

And with the strength of the ninth order, compared to the eighth order professional, the combat power has increased more than a little bit. If the Eighth Order is only the elite of the elite, then the Ninth Order is worthy of being called a "master" by others, and it is definitely the top person of every race and every force.

And, most importantly, the number has also been greatly reduced.

For example, as one of the few powerful races in Azeroth, although the number of people who have reached the eighth order is not as large as the elite of the sixth and seventh orders, they can at least be assembled into a formation of three or five squadrons, but they are the ninth order...... Hehe.

The entire Shuharu clan can't get together thirty people even if it's full!

If you apply the rules in the game, then the sixth order and below are still ordinary templates. Tier 6 to 8 belong to the elite template, while Tier 9 and Hero are real bosses!

The improvement of each level and template represents the soaring of strength and combat effectiveness! (Note 1)

If you want to defeat a hero-level master, a ninth-order priest, and the eighth-order guards of the accompanying squad and successfully kidnap Varian, without the help of a hero-level powerhouse, even if it is a joint action of several forces, it is absolutely impossible to pay a large number of casualties as a price!

But the heroic master is not a cabbage on the side of the road, and the whole Azeroth is only a handful of them. All of them are well-known figures in the entire continent, and it is impossible for them to get involved in this matter. And the only possible black dragon princess, Onexia, may have to take care of her disguised identity......

Under such a premise, all forces want to scoop up Varian. You can only rely on human life to fill it, scoop the quantity to pile up...... And it has to be a large amount of cannon fodder plus a sufficient number of eighth- and ninth-order elites and masters. After all, on the battlefield, facing a strong enemy in the first position of a hero. In addition to using the same hero-level masters, it is estimated that only by piling up a large number of ninth-order masters can they be worthy of a battle......

Since there are people from the Terror Totem Clan who secretly blend into this muddy water behind their backs, and Old Tang wants to find people out, then tracking down the recently wounded or missing people is the simplest and clearest means.

That's true, but how easy is it to investigate?

Let's not talk about whether those perpetrators will be stupid enough to blatantly expose their flaws in front of others, even if these people don't deal with the whole thing, how can Lao Tang find it?

Although the population of the Minotaur is small, the four-year recuperation period is only a little more than a million. But the Terror Totem Clan, as the only large clan in Shuharu that is large enough to compare with the Bloodhoof Tribe, still has hundreds of thousands of clansmen.

And searching for possible suspects with a population base of tens of thousands is simply looking for a needle in a haystack......

So Old Tang's previous inquiry was just a casual question like luck. After all, Cormier, the shaman, is also the most convenient profession to contact the wounded, and it is not clear what news and intelligence will be found.

"Wounded?" Cormier looked at Old Tang in surprise, and then shook his head, "There has been no war recently, and the bandits in the barren land have almost been wiped out by the adventurers. I haven't heard of any of my people being injured......"

"If nothing else. I'll take my leave. ”

After that, Cormier's terror totem bowed slightly to Old Tang and turned to leave, but he didn't notice that Old Tang, who was originally casual behind him, suddenly froze at this moment, narrowing his eyes slightly and staring at his back tightly......

"Brother...... What's wrong? ”

Cormier's figure had disappeared from Old Don's sight. At the door of Margatha's residence, looking at the old Tang with a complicated expression, frowning slightly, and being silent for a long time, the violent cow asked tentatively with a puzzled face.

"No...... It's nothing. He shook his head slightly. Old Don looked in the direction Cormier had left and muttered, "Maybe...... It's just that I'm suspicious...... Stormwind.

Noble Quarter.

Count Presto's Residence......

Tick, tick.

All that seemed to be the dull sound of the taut clockwork of the hanging bell was left in the large room.

The rhythmic and rhythmic sound reverberated through the empty room, and the Buddha was infinitely amplified. The afternoon sun shines through the mottled and lush branches of the banyan tree in the garden and falls into the spacious and ornate room, leaving layers of shadows on the carpet, like a strange picture.

"Is the news confirmed, Berval?"

After a long silence, a stern and grim inquiry sounded from the couch under the hanging bell. The sofa is made of fine cowhide, soft and comfortable, but the archbishop on the sofa, who has always been solemn and generous, looks like he is sitting on pins and needles at the moment, and his face is anxious.

"It's a message from Queen Gianna of Theramore......"

Masculine and handsome, strong and majestic, Duke Boval Vortagan from a military background looks as steady and calm as ever on the outside, and even dresses as meticulously as ever. But the deep sorrow between the duke's eyebrows, as well as the anxiety mixed in his words, proved that the consul of the Storm Kingdom was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.

"Has MI7 detected any information? Have you ever found out the whereabouts of His Majesty the King? ”

The soft voice contains the unique strength of the superior. Countess Catlana Presto, frowning deeply, swayed her graceful body and personally served tea to Archbishop Benedictas and Duke Berval at the round table. He sat down beside the anxious Duke of Boval, stretched out his hand and gently held the duke's big hand, which was pinched white by the knuckles, and asked in a deep voice.

"Not ...... yet" Gently holding the countess's soft twing, the Duke of Boval shook his head slightly and replied with a wry smile: "You know, because of the secret support of the Kurtilas navy four years ago, Madias's actions angered the powerful Minotaur Overseer, and MI7's intelligence stronghold in Kalimdor was repeatedly swept by the Horde...... Intelligence work simply could not be carried out. The strength of MI7 in that land is limited......"

The duke's answer gave a flash of pride and relief in the countess's eyes, but it disappeared without a trace, without attracting the attention of the other two people in the room. It's the opposite. The melancholy on the countess's face became more solemn, and the Duke of Voor's answer made her even more worried about the current situation of King Varian......

"Don't worry, Kana...... Varian will be fine! He clenched the Countess's soft palm. The Duke of Bowval didn't know whether he was comforting his lover or cheering himself up, and he explained to himself:

"Madias has personally led a pair of elite agents to Kalimdor to search for any traces of the envoys...... The Minotaur also agreed to Lady Gianna's request for help and sent his men to join the search and rescue ...... Varian will be fine! ”

"Hmph, Horde!"

The duke's self-consolation was exchanged for a cold snort from Archbishop Benedictas on the side. With a "bang", he slammed the teacup in his hand onto the coffee table, and the archbishop, who had always been a generous elder, now had a gloomy face, and said angrily: "The tribe is not trustworthy at all!" Whether it's orcs or minotaurs! ”

"If it weren't for the king's insistence on a secret meeting with the great chief of the tribe this time, he wouldn't have been in danger at all! Maybe...... The disappearance of His Majesty the King is simply a tribal obstruction. ”

"Letting the minotaur join the search and rescue is basically seeking the skin of the tiger!"

"Your Excellency! Please be careful! Benedictas's mention caused Berval's displeasure, and the Duke's brows were almost furrowed together, and he raised his hand to stop the archbishop's somewhat radical remarks: "Now we have no evidence to prove that the tribe is behind Varian's disappearance!" ”

"Speculation is only misleading. Delaying the search for Varian!! ”

"...... Boval" saw the quarrel between the archbishop and the duke, but the countess, who was silent on the sidelines, was moved, and immediately interjected to "persuade" him: "Maybe the bishop is right......

"Kana?!" The countess's opinion stunned Berval, and the Duke never expected that Catlana would be on the side of the archbishop on this issue. "You...?"

"Don't worry. Hear me first! Putting her hands on Boval's knees, the countess steadied the duke's slightly excited emotion, and whispered, "His Majesty's trip was carried out in secret, and apart from us and Lady Gianna, only the tribal Thrall knew the news......."

"Maybe the secret meeting was fake...... That orc chief actually wanted to take the opportunity to kill Varian...... Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen? If it wasn't for the other party's plan, how could he be kidnapped with the strength of His Majesty the King? ”

The countess's analysis of what she said. Let Berval also be silent.

I have to say that this analysis is also reasonable. As the countess said, there were only a few people who knew about this secret meeting...... If it's not your own leak...... That is the only possibility......

Thinking of this, Bowall's faith also began to waver.

Raising his head and glancing at the pensive Duke of Berval and the Countess of Presto next to him, the archbishop slowly stood up and threw out a heavy mention:

"Can't delay any longer, Bolval!"

"As the archon appointed by His Majesty, you must make a decision!"

"I build yì ......"

"Immediately send the Royal Guard and the First Legion to land in Kalimdor, and we will personally search for and rescue His Majesty the King!" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )V
