At this time, Xue Huan naturally didn't know that Khadgar and Elon were questioning his identity.

Seeing Lucy and Álvaro finally get together, a stone in his heart finally landed. Although the mission was full of twists and turns, it was finally successfully completed. Now that the orc army has also retreated, he is now desperate to return to Stratholme.

At this time, Cassius, who was behind Lothar, stepped forward, knelt down on one knee in front of Terenus, and said bitterly: "I have the great trust of Your Majesty, the Storm Fortress has been lost, and more than seventy soldiers have been killed!"

Looking at Cassius, who was covered in scars but his eyes were still resolute, Terenus leaned over and gently lifted him up.

"It's not your fault, General Cassius, it's all done by that Perinod idiot. You'll be lucky to be able to return to Lordaeron safely. ”

As soon as he spoke, Cassius's heart was warm.

"By the way, Your Majesty..."Cassius suddenly remembered the powerful Xue Huan, and said excitedly to Terenus, "Please allow me to introduce you to a powerful magician!"

"Oh, that's great!"

Cassius's words couldn't help but light up in Tyrenus's eyes, they just didn't need a magician to assist Arthas.

Cassius, who was overexcited, didn't notice Xue Huan's frowning brows, he put his arm around Xue Huan's shoulders and forcibly pushed him out.

"Your Majesty, this is the Master Dalaran I introduced to you, Your Excellency Xue Huan. After introducing Xue Huan's name, everyone present invariably focused their eyes on this thin man.

At this time, Cassius recounted Xue Huan's record of using spells to defeat the powerful orc leader and scare away more than a dozen orc warriors. It made everyone present stunned. Among the generals, only Farrar's eyes locked on Xue Huan, as if he was recalling something......

Feeling the scorching gaze around him, Xue Huan's heart was filled with bitterness.

He really didn't expect this Cassius General to have such a big mouth and turn his old bottom upside down. The key problem is that the spells he uses are forbidden on the continent, and they are not visible. Moreover, there were several Dalaran mages present, and if they discovered their secrets, I am afraid that they would only be pursued by the magic inquisitor.

At this time, Xue Huan secretly scolded himself for not making it clear to Cassius earlier that he was not a great magician......

After listening to Cassius's thrilling description, Terenus's eyes lit up and he nodded in praise.

His trust in his generals made him completely forget to confirm Xue Huan's identity, even though he had two high-level mages from Dalaran by his side.

"Then the honorable Magician, can I ask you for one thing on behalf of Lordaeron?" Tyrenus's tone was unusually kind, making people feel like a spring breeze.

"You... Say it!"

Facing this king of a country from another world for the first time, Xue Huan's heart was a little apprehensive.

Terenus stared directly at Xue Huan with his deep eyes, and his tone was slow but firm: "Now Lordaeron needs a powerful mage like you to assist my Excellency Arthas in completing a mission, I wonder if Your Excellency the Great Mage is willing to deign to go?"

"This..."

Xue Huan was a little hesitant, although he didn't want to participate in this war, but the other party was the king of a country after all, if he refused the other party in person, I was afraid that he would not have good fruit to eat.

"Your Majesty Honorable Terenus..."Xue Huan carefully organized his words, for fear of offending the king in front of him, "First of all, I am not a great magician, just a trainee mage. Secondly, a friend of mine is very seriously ill and is still waiting for me to return in Stratholme, so I beg your pardon for the trust I have placed on me. ”

Hearing this, Terenus was a little annoyed. I asked him so condescendingly, and the other party actually came up with such an obvious lie as "I am just a trainee mage" to prevaricate myself.

But what Terenus didn't know was that Xue Huan was just telling the truth. But after a trusted subordinate preconceived label Xue Huan as a "great magician", he would naturally use Xue Huan's truth as an excuse for the other party to excuse himself.

"Friend, could it be the Magician's beloved?" Tyrenus could not believe that the other party would refuse the king's request for the sake of an ordinary friend.

"Sort of..."

Thinking of Niya's stammering, shy and cute appearance when she spoke, Xue Huan couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart. And when Angel beside her heard his words, there was a trace of sourness in her heart: he... Do you have a favorite girl?

Realizing that something was wrong with her, Angel quickly shook her head and tried to banish the feeling. But helplessly, the appearance of that guy seemed to be rooted in her heart, and no matter how she drove it, it would linger.

"So, Your Excellency the Magician, are you prepared to refuse my request?" Tyrenus was a little unsettling at this time.

It would be fine if the other party rejected him directly, but the other party came up with a set of excuses that obviously prevaricated him, which made him a little annoyed, is this mage fooling himself?

Seeing that his father was about to be unable to suppress the anger in his chest, Galia stepped forward at the right time and said softly: "Father, in my opinion, Your Excellency the Magician loves his wife commendably, so it is better to follow his wishes." ”

Just as Terenus was puzzled, he saw Galia change his words and said to Xue Huan with a smile: "But Your Excellency Magician, the orc forces around the Lordaeron Plains and the Sierra de Celestial Novas have not yet been completely wiped out, and that is the only way to Stratholme. ”

"Although, with your sheer strength, it's not a problem to deal with dozens or hundreds of orc warriors. But with thousands of orc troops, you're a little overwhelmed..."

Feeling Galya's eyes as deep as the sea, Xue Huan was a little stunned. This feeling of being seen into his heart was something he had never experienced before, as if all the secrets in his heart were hidden in the eyes of this woman...

Seeing that Xue Huan was a little hesitant, Galia lightly opened her lips and slowly threw out a condition that the former could not refuse: "It's better to be like this, Your Excellency Magician." This mission will only take two or three days to complete. Once the mission is completed, Lordaeron will unconditionally send troops to escort you to Stratholme, and send the best priests to heal your loved ones. ”

"In addition to this, you will also receive honors and knighthoods. ”

Of course, this last sentence is just a blank check from Galia. In her opinion, it was enough to casually give Xue Huan a baron for envelopment after the war. After speaking, Galia gestured to her father with her eyes.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Magician, what do you think of such conditions?" Terenus also came back to his senses at this time, if he could win over the magician in front of him, then how could he be reluctant to be a baron?

This...

Originally, after successfully completing this mission, Xue Huan planned to return to Stratholme. But as things stand, it seems to be a bit more difficult. After all, the retreating orc army had now retreated to the area of the Sierra de Celestiole, and that was the only way back to Stratholme.

In this way, it is very difficult for him and Angel, plus Patrick, to return to Stratholme.

"Okay, I'll accept this mission..."After thinking about it, Xue Huan could only reluctantly agree.

If you carefully calculate that you still have about ten days or so, it is also a good idea to improve your strength during this period. Moreover, the conditions offered by Terenus were enough to impress him.

Seeing that Xue Huan had responded to this mission, Terenus nodded. When he was about to give the order to go down, he heard Xue Huan's voice sound again.

"Wait, Your Majesty. ”

"Is there anything else?, Lord Magician?" Tyrenus wondered, could he have repented so quickly?

"Your Majesty Terenus, this is only my personal opinion after all. You'll also want to ask my two friends what they think. Under Xue Huan's guidance, Terenus noticed that there were two mercenaries beside him. A sorceress, a... Dwarf?

When Terenus was about to ask, the irascible Patrick put the battle axe on his shoulder and said in a thick nasal voice: "Anyway, where the little guy goes during this time, I will go!"

Patrick had planned to say goodbye to Xue Huan and return to Ironforge after completing the mission. But judging from the current situation, it may be impossible to go back smoothly. Then you might as well follow this little guy for a while, maybe something more fun will happen.

"I... Me too!" Angel on the side also echoed.

Her family lives in Stratholme, so if she wants to go back, she can only count on the Lordaeron soldiers to wipe out the orc forces once and for all. Before that, following Xue Huan was her best choice. Moreover...

Angel cautiously glanced at Xue Huan, but she happened to meet the latter's gaze. Frightened, she quickly looked away and pretended to look away.

"Very well, heroes. Terenus stroked his palm and put on a kind smile: "Lordaeron thanks you for your help, I will arrange for Arthas to lead you to the town of South Seas, and on the way he will explain the details of this mission to you in detail." As he spoke, Terenus waved his hand to the side.

After a while, a young and handsome blonde man appeared in front of Xue Huan and the others.

"Hello, Your Excellency Magician, I am the commander of this mission, Arthas!" Arthas introduced himself to Xue Huan with a smile on his face.

When he commanded the army for the first time, he didn't even indicate the identity of the prince, but only deliberately accentuated the word "commander". In his opinion, it was a great honor to be able to lead such a powerful mage for the first time.

"Hello!"

Xue Huan also smiled faintly.

Seeing that the dust had settled on this tricky matter, Terenus was relieved. Only then did he remember that there were still many generals in the main hall waiting for his orders. Terenus froze and whispered to the generals, "Well, now that the plan has been decided. All the generals have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, pursue the remnants of the orcs!"

"Yes!" everyone in the hall replied in unison.
