In recent months, Kel'thugad felt that the Cult of the Damned, which had been secretly developing for several years, had grown in size enough, and that his master, the Lich King Neozu, was urging him, so he had to hurry. As a result, the activities of the Cult of the Damned are no longer so secretive. Throughout the North there are acolytes who spread the ideas of the Cursed Sect. And their methods have slowly shifted from seduction to fraud and coercion.

The lords of the north have all found traces of the Cursed Sect under their rule, but the acolytes operating outside are not an important role, and even the loss of some will not affect the rapid expansion of the Cursed Sect. What's more, there are also some nobles who secretly defect to Kel'thugad to cover them in their own territory and power, which makes it difficult for the official forces to find the real clues of the Cursed Sect.

This is Lordaeron's territory, and Lordaeron's army must be more than happy to eradicate the evil mages of these cursed sects in the Psychic Academy.

However, no one knows what kind of Cheng dù these local defense forces have infiltrated by the Cursed Sect. If the news leaked in advance and gave the Psychic Academy a chance to retreat, it would be self-defeating.

Jiang Weihan thought about it, there was only one army here now, and it would definitely not be infiltrated - it was the famous Silver Hand Knights. This group of knights who believe in the Holy Light will definitely not tolerate such an evil organization. As long as Jiang Weihan can provide clues, he will definitely be able to move in to rescue the soldiers!

To the north, not far from the Psychic Academy, is the domain of one of the leaders of the Silver Hand, the Grand Lord of Hearthvae, and the paladin Tirio Fortin, who is a legend. In the post-World of Warcraft era, where the Third War ended and the Burning Legion retreated once again, Arthas on the Frozen Throne of Northrend has effectively become one of the most powerful existents known on the continent of Azeroth. Instead, Fording defeated Arthas head-on with the artifact Ember Bringer. Later, Ferdin, once again raised the banner of the Silver Hand and led the Silver Northern Expedition, leading the armies of the Alliance and the Horde to completely eliminate the sinful Lich King.

People who have played World of Warcraft, especially League players, have a great affection for Fordin. Jiang Weihan is no exception.

So he plans to go to the Valley of the Hearth to ask Fording for help.

However, after rushing to the nearby town of Andorhar, when Jiang Weihan asked a commoner about the situation of Tirio Ferdin, the lord of the Hearthvale, the middle-aged uncle in his forties told him in a tone of half-anger and half-disappointment: "They all say that Lord Ferdin's betrayed Lordaeron!" Unexpectedly, he secretly shielded an evil orc and attacked the soldiers of the alliance for it! Tomorrow he and the orc will face trial in Stratholme, and hopefully none of this qiē will be true...... What are you looking for him? ”

After bidding farewell to the chattering middle-aged uncle, Jiang Weihan immediately realized that Tirio Ferdin's secret shielding of the orc Itreg had been exposed.

Here's the thing:

The Second Orc Invasion War ended in the defeat of the Orcs. Most of the defeated orcs were imprisoned in prisoner of war camps built especially for them by the Alliance. A small number of them escaped from the Alliance's capture and hid deep in the mountains.

The orc Itreg was one of the escaped orc veterans.

This old orc is much more sober than those people who have been bewitched by the demons of the Burning Legion and drank the blood of demons, and he still retains the original simplicity, kindness and noble personality of the orcs.

Not long ago, Ferdin, who was out on horseback on patrol, spotted this orc, who had been carefully hidden for years. Tension between the two was immediately entrenched. Both Fordin and Itreg are the best powerhouses, and the battle between the two fluctuates dramatically. They fought evenly without a victory, but at the critical moment of the battle, a tower collapsed, and the hapless Fording happened to be buried in the rubble and fell into a coma.

When a human paladin encounters an orc warrior, it will definitely be a matter of life and death. According to normal procedure, Fording should definitely be beheaded and become a high-ranking member of the Order of the Silver Hand, who died honorably after the war.

But he didn't die - he was tied to his horse with reins and carried back to the station.

Yes, Itreig didn't take advantage of the danger to kill him.

"How could an orc save me instead of killing me?"

Puzzled, Fording didn't say anything about his encounter with the strange orc—but he was in his sleep—and he whispered that the orcs were going to attack the Hearthvale.

His guard captain Arden and his lieutenant Bathras both heard his dream words.

Bathras is a young and impulsive paladin. His parents were slaughtered by the orcs in the Second War, and after his military training was completed, the war was over, and he lost the opportunity to avenge his parents personally, so he hated the orcs fiercely. There are orcs under his rule, and he definitely wants to kill them as soon as possible.

Therefore, he tried his best to send an army to hunt down the orcs, but Tirio, who had always been skeptical and hesitant, refused to build his plan.

A few days later, Fordin sneaked back to the place where he had encountered the orcs - Itreg was also very confident, he saved a human, and he was not afraid of revenge from others, and he did not move or anything.

Anyway, after the two had in-depth exchanges, they suddenly put aside their prejudices and became a pair of good friends across races. Of course, this reclusive orc would not threaten Hearthvale and his people, so after careful consideration, Tirio promised Itreg as a paladin and lord that he would be allowed to continue living in seclusion without harming humans.

After returning, Ferding once again rejected Bathras's search for the orcs. Butheraston was very dissatisfied with his boss's position, and the hatred for the orcs in his heart made him think of another way - to make a small report!

He went to Stratholm to find Saidan Dathohan, the commander of the Silver Hand Knights and the immediate boss of Tirio Fordin, and reported to him that there were orcs in Hearthvale.

And just during this time, the young orc Thrall became the chief of the tribe, set off a movement to liberate the orcs, and led his subordinates to continuously attack the orc shelter built by the kingdom of Lordaeron with a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, Da Sohan attached great importance to the information brought by Bassoras, and personally rushed to the Valley of the Hearth with a regiment of soldiers.

Faced with the questioning of his boss and good brother, Ferdin, who is a paladin, could not lie, and had to lead them to the hiding place of the orc Itreig. Itreig, who had been wounded in the foot during the previous fight with Tirio, was outnumbered and captured red-handed. He looked angrily at the human knight who had promised him a few days earlier that he would not come to disturb him, but now he had broken his word.

Tirio felt more and more guilty as he watched Itreg in a cage being abused by the soldiers and Bassoras, and saw Itreg's angry and questioning eyes. The knight's honor drove him to take the soldier's whip, disperse the guards who were beating Itreig, and shout at Da Suohan to release the reclusive, harmless old orc!

Da Sohan looked at his friend Fordin in disbelief, thinking that he had lost his mind. Buthras, who was kicked to the ground, took the opportunity to shout: "He is a traitor to the Alliance!" He should be locked up with this brute! ”

Tirio's rhetoric failed to impress Da Sohan. With the idea of being in trouble, he was accused of treason by Dassohan for harboring orcs and attacking Alliance soldiers, and was also imprisoned in a cage together......

Tomorrow, in the Hall of Justice in Stratholme, he will face the fate of being judged - as for the orc Itrege, he is not even qualified to be judged. They decided to hang him the day after tomorrow, no, it was "it". In the eyes of man, orcs = beasts.

It was not early, and Jiang Weihan exchanged the Demacia gold coins on his body for the equivalent of Lordaeron gold and silver coins in Andohar. The owner of the shop liked the gold coins in his hand, which were beautifully made and had a lot of gold content. On its back is engraved a golden eagle with a sword and shield in its mouth, which is the emblem of Demacia. It's as delicate as a work of art.

Because he was in a hurry, as soon as it was dawn the next morning, Jiang Weihan, who had eaten something casually, rode a griffin into the air and flew to Stratholme in the distance.

……

On this day, hundreds of citizens gathered in the magnificent square outside the Hall of Justice, and they saw that a gallows had been erected in the square. What an exciting thing it is to see an orc hanged with your own eyes! As for the courtroom, that's where only the big guys can enter. Lord Tirio Fording will be tried inside today, supposedly for treason and harboring orcs? It's incredible, he led his soldiers to kill countless orcs in the past, how could he defect to the orcs? Most people thought that this was a slander by a despicable villain against this old paladin full of honor. Naturally, the Inquisition would have cleared His Excellency Fordin.

At this moment, Jiang Weihan had already sat down in the trial hall. Next to him sat a man and a woman, both dressed as mages, talking in low voices. Now, of course, he is also in a mage's attire, wearing a mage's robe and carrying the Staff of Time.

In the center of the chamber was the flag of the Lordaeron League, flanked by smaller ones representing each of the Alliance's seven kingdoms.

Tirio Fording had been ushered into the hall and sat on a large oak chair in the middle. Directly in front of him was the presiding judge's seat, and behind the presiding judge were four throne-like chairs in an arc on the high platform, which were the seats for the jury members.

I heard that four "big shots" are going to serve as jury members today, and Jiang Weihan has some expectations. Because in Lordaeron, all high-level trials need to be presided over by the four Supreme Commanders of the Alliance.

At this moment, a paladin stepped forward and announced in a loud voice, "Guardians of Lordaeron, today, we are gathered here to judge one of us. The trial of Lord Tirio Fording begins now! ”

As the first juror entered, the hall fell silent.
