1778 The Alliance Has a Choice

Belissa succeeded in helping King Greymane suppress the essence of the werewolf for a long time, and told him about the origin of the werewolf curse: the catastrophic consequences and hopeless depravity of a group of night elf druids abusing the wild power given by nature.

With Arugao's death, the werewolves he had summoned were freed. Once a degenerate and one of the stubborn claw druids, Lyral proclaimed himself leader and organized a wolf-worshipping cult among the werewolves known as the "Bloodfanged Werewolves".

Many Gilnesians betrayed their country and joined this secret organization for a variety of reasons. They operate covertly within the walls of the kingdom of Gilneth, spreading curses to more and more people in an unstoppable way.

As the curse of the werewolves spreads and the populace is neither safe nor able to escape the walls, Lord Darius Crowley mutinies and attacks the court of Greymane in Gilneth City.

He declared that he would overthrow Jean's tyranny and end the closed conditions to save Gilneth. The civil war was bloody and fierce, and although Crowley's army was eventually defeated by the king and imprisoned, the kingdom suffered heavy losses and fell into chaos. The remnants of the rebels are still active throughout the kingdom from time to time, and even hide countless firearms in the capital in an attempt to start a second civil war.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the growing head wolf Lelar launched a deadly attack on the fragile capital. The Gilneth City Guards and Royal Guards were quickly defeated by the Werewolves, and countless civilians were killed or cursed in the battle.

In desperation, King Jean released and pardoned Darius and his soldiers. With the help of their daughter, Rhona, the rebels at the North Gate regained weapons intended for civil war and cut off the Cathedral of Dawnlight in Cathedral Square for refugees who had evacuated the capital.

Unlike in history, there were no Forsaken attacks on Gilneth in this life, so after gathering the nation's forces and having the werewolves who had been redeemed in Tarondol join Gilneis, the attack of the Bloodfang Werewolves was defeated.

Over the next few years, Gilneth experienced several serious rebellions and coups that drained the kingdom of almost all of its vitality.

When the cataclysm came, Gilneth's economy and livelihood finally collapsed.

Originally, Gilneth was almost the smallest of the Seven Kingdoms, and it was slightly larger than Alterac. In order to prevent the alliance from grossly interfering in internal affairs, it also abandoned the most fertile territory of the Silver Pine Forest, and built the Wall of Greymane in the mountains further south.

The rest of the terrain, which is mainly mountainous, is destined to produce little food. Even this small amount of arable land requires a lot of manpower to cultivate and plant.

The werewolves are rampant, which not only has the food production decreased, but also the hunting in the forest has become extremely difficult. The cataclysm did not cause any rift in Gilneth's anger, which is already a blessing in misfortune. Unfortunately, the earthquake easily destroyed a large number of houses and a large section of the walls of the city of Gilneth.

This is simply to add insult to injury.

Originally, King Jean was introduced by Grand Druid Malfurion, who took the line of the alliance and met Varian.

But in this life, Duke felt a little surprised.

"What? Jean Greymane wants to see me? Three watches in the middle of the night?" Duke, who happened to be in the South Sea City of the South Sea City-State and was on a state visit with Illusia in the middle of the night, received the news.

Duke was a little upset.

"Duke, Jean is a king anyway. Asking for a meeting in the middle of the night, there must be something urgent. Illusia under him persuaded so intimately.

"Okay. "After Duke launched the Duke Excalibur 999 combo in one breath and sent Her Majesty the Queen of Alterac to the sky, he tidied up a little, and saw a tired old wolf king in the study.

Jean was obviously surprised, he didn't expect Duke to actually want to see him in the middle of the night. His mouth squirmed for a long time, and he couldn't say a word.

Duke looked at the old wolf king carefully, and suddenly realized that he didn't know what to say about him.

Admittedly, Jean is old, and his hair has become extremely pale.

Duke felt more pleasing to the eye.

Back then, Jean was a typical political villain, not only full of belly, but also all kinds of bitterness and pickiness. If there is a difficulty, he will shrink his eggs, and if there is a benefit, he will roll over like a hungry dog that sees bones.

Now that I'm getting old, I'm getting leaner.

A head of white hair is six or four points, hanging down to the side of the chin. The arms were once full of fatty pork, but now only muscles with explosive power and beauty remain.

Dressed in a black tight-fitting silk robe, his muscles were highlighted, while the golden leather armor and leg armor that exposed his shoulders made him completely shake off the image of a literati.

Jean, who was once recognized as a scumbag in the original alliance and only deserved to play a game of sand with Terenus during the war, should now be quite explosive in combat effectiveness.

Duke teased, "Jean, why do I think you're more handsome now than you were back then?"

One sentence made Jean's nervous mood fly away: Ah! At least Duke wasn't too angry with me!

He breathed a sigh of relief: "Nothing like you! eternal life and youth." ”

Duke walked over to the wine cabinet, "Do you want to drink something?" Illusia is very rich, and you can't afford to drink her. ”

This was actually the Queen's study, which was actually specially prepared for Duke by Elushia. Duke treats it like his home.

Jean was a little embarrassed, but he quickly tried to adjust his mood: "Is there any Alterac gin? ”

"Absolutely. ”

Duke poured his wine and handed Jean his glass.

Jean shook the crystal glass, letting the almost rum-like liquor emit a charming aroma in the air, and then drank it down, and suddenly said, "Oh my God! What the hell was I thinking? I actually closed the country for more than twenty years because I was afraid that the alliance would swallow my country." ”

Duke shrugged: "Aren't you afraid that the current alliance will swallow Gilneth? You should know that there is no cataclysm, and I am already married to four queens." ”

Jean was a little depressed, he didn't even dare to look at Duke, he rubbed his glass with his fingers, as if reminiscing, as if to hide his uneasiness: "Whether there is an alliance or not, Gilneth is almost finished." Half of the people have become werewolves, and the other half are struggling with hunger and panic. I don't have a choice. ”

"But the league has a choice!" Duque stressed.

This sentence made Jean's heart almost freeze.

Oh, yes!

The coalition does not have to accept Gilneth.
