Chapter 106: Alliance Summit
The summit of the alliance was successfully held after Lothar arrived in Lordaeron. www.biquge.info In addition to Lothar himself, Lothar and others were invited to attend this important meeting of Azeroth, including Boval as an ambassador, Edward as commander of the Demon Hunter Knights, Khadgar as a disciple of Medivan the Guardian, and Creda the Draenei as a witness to an alien race.
The rest of the meeting was attended by Azeroth's most famous kings and dignitaries. On Lordaeron's side, King Terenus himself presided over the meeting, along with Muradine Copperbeard, the ambassador of Fort Ironforge, Daerin Prodmoor, ruler of Kul Tiras, Jean Greymane, ruler of Gilneis, Solas Torbain, ruler of Castle Riptide, Antonidas, archmage of Dalaran, and Perenos of Alterac.
This is the first time in many years that the seven human kingdoms of Azeroth have come together, and their purpose is, of course, to resist the powerful orc horde.
After Bervar had reached Lordaeron and explained the dangers of the orcs, the rulers of these countries had received the news. They each have their own channels of information, and they also know more or less about the orc.
It wasn't until they really got to know the orcs that fear developed in their hearts. The number and individual strength of the orcs are irresistible to none of their individual kingdoms, and the only way to survive in this catastrophe is to join forces.
The dignitaries present at the meeting, except for the king of Ironforge Castle, who could not come, the kings of the other kingdoms all came to Lordaeron in person, which also confirmed from one side that what Berval said was not nonsense.
The principals of the Seven Kingdoms of Mankind sat in a semicircle at the head of the Council Chamber of the Palace of Lordaeron, while Lothar, Edward, Khadgar, and Krida sat at the bottom. In addition to these people, each king brought with him a clerk, or some important retinue.
In addition, there is Kudran Brutehammer, who has a gap from Ironforge, and Archbishop Fao, the leader of all the priests in Azeroth.
There is another person whose identity is also very special, he is Kael'thas who represents the High Elf kingdom of Quel'Salas, and his retinue Aurelia and Sahira.
His arrival also surprised the heads of the Seven Kingdoms of the Human Race.
"Alright, everyone is here, let's start our meeting for today. Terenus stood up and said, "First of all, I want to welcome the arrival of Ser Anduin Lothar, the warrior of Azeroth and the regent of Stormwind. ”
Terenus led the clapping, and the other kings echoed the applause.
"Secondly, I would like to ask Sir Lothar to forgive us for arranging our seats in the manner of interrogating prisoners. Terenus apologized, "We kings really want to know how much power the orcs have, and this is the best way to listen." ”
"It's okay, I also want to thank Terenus for hosting and housing our Stormwind refugees. Lothar stood up, resentful of his unequal seat, but now that Terenus had apologized himself, he had calmed down the unpleasantness.
"If you want to know how powerful the orcs really are, we can ask General Edward, who infiltrated the orc camp alone. Lothar pushed Edward out and said, "He once used a transformation potion to transform into an orc, and he had personal contact with orcs. ”
As soon as Lothar finished speaking, the leaders began to talk and let out a slight exclamation.
Edward handed the star on his back to his retinue Hayley, then stood up and glanced at the heads of state.
"Hello everyone, I'm Edward Lee, the commander of the Demon Hunter Knights. ”
"As for you, I can tell you responsibly that even if we join forces, the chances of defeating the orc tribe are slim. ”
Edward's speech caused an uproar in the entire conference hall. In particular, several kings, who were already opposed to the establishment of an alliance, had begun to scold regardless of the occasion.
"Give me all peace!" Terenus glanced at Edward disapprovingly, then said loudly, "General Edward, although I personally admire you, please don't say these words that encourage the enemy's arrogance. ”
Edward nodded calmly, and continued, "Why do I say that? ”
"The Orc tribes, the natives and rulers of the world of Draenor, have defeated the Draenei, who possess powerful warfare technology, and have crossed the Dark Gate in search of a new world. ”
"Although they are a relatively backward clan society, every orc is proud of their strength. They take pride in dying on the battlefield, they see fear and cowardice as a disgrace, and a single ordinary orc soldier can almost single-handedly take on three human soldiers. And they have crossed the Gate of Darkness in greater numbers than the soldiers of all human kingdoms combined. ”
"The current Great Chief of the Orc Tribe, who is their ruler, is the Chief of the Black Hand Clan, Orgrim Doomhammer, a man I know up close, a very brave but wise commander who is very difficult to deal with. ”
"Another person I would like to mention is that the current great shaman of the orc tribe is an orc named Guldan, who is a shaman who grants magical powers to strong orcs. No, now that the orc tribe is no longer shaman, what Gul'dan has taught is a group of warlocks known as the Shadow Council. ”
"Warlocks are more destructive than shamans, a group of legalists who only know about destruction and don't do restoration work at all. The evil energy they use comes from life, and it is a corrupt mana with great curse power. ”
"Finally, I would like to say one more thing. The skin of the orthodox orcs is all brown, but the skin of the orcs who have received the evil power is green, and the most powerful orc is a red-skinned orc that has drunk the blood of demons!"
"Demon blood, as the name suggests, is the blood of demons, and any orcs who drink the blood of demons, their reason will be dominated by the madness of demons, and they will become a demon who only knows how to fight!"
"Based on what I've said above, do you still think I'm alarmist?"
Edward's successive rounds of information made all the leaders present bloodless on the ground, and the original discussion was quieted, and the chamber fell into a strange atmosphere.
"The Dark Portal, the demon's blood, and the evil powers, I don't think the savage orc tribes can create it all. "It was Antonidas who broke the silence," does that Mr. Creda from Draenor know what's going on?"
Krida looked at Edward, who translated for him.
"Absolutely. Krida stood up, speaking in Draenei, and Edward translated for him.
"We draenei have watched orcs for a long time, and in the midst of some recent wars, our prophet Lord Viren has come to a truth that none of us are willing to accept. ”
"Demons from the Twisted Void are about to invade, and the orcs are only their vanguard. The Dark Gate, the demon's blood, and the evil power are all techniques that the demons have given to the orcs. ”
Krida's words, through Edward's translation, caused a thunderclap to resound throughout the chamber.
People began talking to each other with frightened expressions.
"Calm down, I trust that the Light will protect us!" Archbishop Fao's words were soft, but there seemed to be a force that slowed everyone in the room to calm down.
"The most important thing at the moment is to build an alliance against the orc tribes, not to imagine how strong the enemy is. "What General Edward and General Krida want to tell us is that the enemy is strong, but we need not be afraid of it. The world of Azeroth is our world, no matter how strong the enemy is, in the face of the moment of life and death, we must unite and resist to the end, for the sake of our people, for the sake of Azeroth, even if we are crushed!"
A powerful holy light shrouded Fao's body, making everyone present almost feel the urge to kneel down and worship.
"Yes, for the sake of Azeroth, we must rise up. Terenus stood up, fist raised, and shouted, "We will build an alliance to bring together the resources and soldiers of our nations. You can now express your opinion, whether to unite or to be broken by the individual. ”
The kings and representatives of several other nations immediately expressed their desire to join the Alliance, with the exception of the weakest of the Alterac and Quel'Salas, whose territory was far away.
"I would like to know, Your Majesty Terenus, if you will be in charge of the Alliance once it is established?" asked Perenos, King of Alterac.
"No, I'm a king, but not a qualified commander. Commander of our Alliance forces, I think Sir Lothar is the most suitable!" Terenas said, "All Alliance soldiers, including our Kingdom of Lordaeron, must obey Sir Lothar!"
"He, a stranger of unknown origin," Perinospie said with a nonchalant smile, "forgive my rudeness, Mr. Lothar. But your own kingdom has been destroyed, your king is dead, your prince is as young as a child, your realm has been taken away, and you ...... now."
"That's enough!!!
