In the second month after Edward came to this world, the orc offensive also began to be ferocious.
They repelled the Red Ridge defenses and entered the Elwyn Forest in large numbers.
The atmosphere in the Demon Hunters' Guild is also starting to become tense, and it wasn't long ago that they had encountered their first battle in the Elwyn Forest after joining the Demon Hunters' Guild.
It was an afternoon, and the cadets were on a combat hunt, and just as they were about to return after resting, a group of orcs attacked them.
In the face of the attack of this group of heavily armed hunks, the Demon Hunter cadets showed the results of their training over the past two months.
Edward's training focused on courage, and he repeatedly emphasized in his training that the students had the courage to fight the orcs face to face, and the results were very satisfying to him.
In the end, without Edward's participation in the battle, the Demon Hunter cadets wiped out all the fifty orc scouts, and their own battle losses were only ten wounded. Among them, Karen, who did not listen to Wendsol's orders and rushed to the front, was seriously injured.
After this battle, the Demon Hunter cadets also stopped training and began to prepare for battle.
Although Lord Lothar was a little worried about Cullen's serious injury, Edward was not to blame. Instead, Sir Lothar was amazed by the results of Edward's training and was pleased with the change in Cullen.
He knew his son's strength, two months ago, Karen couldn't even beat ordinary soldiers, but two months later, he was able to kill three orcs with his own hands!
This discovery made Sir Lothar really take Edward seriously, and if it weren't for the fact that he was now in the critical stage of the war, he would have liked him to join the army as a recruit instructor. And now, Stormwind needs the help of a strong man like Edward.
After settling Karen in the Northshire Abbey, Ser Lothar led Edward into Stormstormhold, where the high-ranking of the Kingdom of Azeroth was located.
"Old man, this is what you call Edward Lee, a mighty demon hunter?" Rhine Ureon, King of Azeroth and friend of Lothar and Medivan, stood in front of the table on the strategic map in armor and watched the Edward Dao.
"It's an honor to meet you, Your Majesty Lane. Edward bowed.
"What a young warrior, when I was your age, I was just a ...... who only knew"
"Adventurous little boy. Sir Lothar took Rhine's words and said, "I have said such things before. ”
"Yes, I really miss the time when we had to face a lot of difficulties, but the friendship between the three of us has always been the same, and now, Mad's (Medivan's nickname) he ......"
"He also has a lot to do, forgive him for his estrangement. Lothar said, looking at a young man in a mage's robe beside the king, "It seems to me that this young apprentice is good enough to replace his teacher in his current situation." ”
"It's rude, I'm Khadgar, from Dalaran, and I'm Mr. Medivan's apprentice. Khadgar walked over to Edward and reached out to shake his hand, "I've heard of you, Mr. Mighty Demon Hunter. ”
"It's over. ”
As Edward and Khadgar shook hands, a young man pulled on Laryne's cloak.
"Oh, I almost forgot, Edward, forgive me for being willful, I have a related party here who wants to join your Demon Hunter Guild, but I promise this young man won't let you down. Rhine pushed the blonde young man behind him towards Edward Road, "This is Berval Vortagen, although he is a nobleman, he has always aspired to serve the kingdom of Azeroth, and I am sure he can do well in your ranks." ”
"Of course, in fact, I've met this one. Edward laughed, "This warrior, who deliberately wears the clothes of a commoner but inadvertently displays aristocratic elegance, has appeared near our training ground more than once. ”
"Please forgive me for peeping. Bowing his head in shame, Bolvar said, "Actually, I saw the training of demon hunters during a forest hunt. I couldn't help my curiosity and wanted to keep watching, but after actually seeing it, I was deeply impressed by your training methods. ”
"So, after you watched it, did you try?" asked Edward.
"Yes, and more than once. I do feel a little bit of the light you are talking about. Bolval said, holding out his right hand, "but she's not strong enough for me to use him." ”
To Edward's surprise, the noble warrior's right hand was filled with a faint power of holy light.
"Very good, just stealing to learn has this level, I will accept you as a student. Edward clapped, "Once you join, you'll learn more powerful ways to use and condense the Light. ”
The young noble warrior jumped for joy, but soon realized that the occasion was not right, and bowed his head in embarrassment.
Ryan, Lothar, and Khadgar were all clearly very good at Berval's senses, and they all looked at the excited young man with a smile.
"Edward, allow me to call you that. Seeing that Edward nodded absently, Khadgar asked, "The Holy Light you speak of is magic?"
"No, Khadgar, the Light is the power of faith, the power of one's own faith, and the divine mana is the power of magic. Edward explained vaguely.
"The power of faith?" Khadgar frowned in thought, apparently unfamiliar with the term.
"Can you, then, tell us how to develop this ability?" said King Rhine, a little urgently, "forgive my faux pas, but I don't care so much about the survival of the kingdom. ”
"Of course you can, but for those who have not experienced the path of the Light, even the most specific methods will pale in comparison. "It's like asking an ordinary person to learn magic." ”
Rhine nodded in frustration, but quickly perked up again: "Then when the war eases a little, can you please form such a force?"
"It is an honor to serve you, Your Majesty. Edward gave a military salute to the kingdom of Azeroth, indicating that he was willing to serve the kingdom of men, "but I will not join the army." ”
Rhine happily patted Edward on the shoulder: "That's no problem, I know from Lothar that you demon hunters are people who yearn for freedom, and you will be the military advisor of our Azeroth Kingdom." ”
At this point, Edward truly joined the true core of the kingdom of Azeroth, and he had the right to enter and leave Stormstorm Fortress at will, and began to learn about the current state of the war.
When Edward learned of the current battle from Ryan and Lothar, his brow furrowed.
The war situation has been seriously eroded for the kingdom of Azeroth. In his opinion, if there were no accidents, the fall of Stormwind was inevitable!
However, none of Ryan seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter, as they seemed to have strong self-confidence in the walls of Stormwind, believing that these difficult and strong walls were enough to hold out any attack.
Edward wanted to say something, but after seeing Lothar's eyes, he didn't speak.
Obviously, Sir must have seen it too, and persuaded the king, but with the confident expression of Rhine now, it had little effect.
......
After taking Khadgar and Bervar with them, Edward and Lothar arrived at the Lion King's Pride Inn in Shining Gold.
Now that Edward has joined the kingdom's side, it is his duty to help, and he intends to talk to Lothar.
"Perhaps, that orc named Garona is an opportunity. Edward said.
"Maybe. Lothar said a little absent-mindedly, "The situation may not be that serious, and our astral mage, Mr. Medivan." ”
"What are you thinking, Sir Lothar? Don't you know it's war?" said Edward, his tone became serious, "since it's war, then you have to understand that it's better to never rely on one man. This is a matter for all the people of the kingdom of Azeroth. ”
Lothar looked at the young man who dared to talk to him like this in surprise, and the two stared at each other for a long time before Lothar laughed: "I really don't understand, Edward, what kind of experience you have. It was a young man, but his tone was harsher than that of some old sages. ”
"What surprised me even more was that I already saw you as a peer. ”
Lothar said this, and Khadgar and Bolval were also surprised, the two of them had indeed regarded Edward as an elder.
"No, Sir Lothar, I don't think this is the time to talk about it. Edward looked frightened, "You can never imagine the sight of powerful and vicious demonic beasts taking over the homeland. ”
Lothar stopped laughing, trying to imagine the shattered scenes of Stormwind, but it felt powerless.
"Sir, I think Edward is right. Khadgar said suddenly, "I'm not denigrating my teacher, but the situation of the Astral Mage may be a little wrong, he has been in a state of irritability lately. ”
"It's like...... There was a great pressure on him, and he couldn't resist. ”
"Maybe it's my hallucination, I once saw a green mana from him. Khadgar recalls diligently.
"Green mana?" both Lothar and Edward looked at Khadgar in surprise.
Just as everyone was about to start a discussion about this green mana, a soldier hurriedly ran in and whispered something in Lothar's ear.
"What are you talking about?orc raid Northshire Monastery!"
