Chapter 639: Back to Orgrimmar
After leaving Esolda, Edward and Hayley teleported back to Rivendell Fortress and then flew south along the Silverpine Forest to the newly opened kingdom of Gilne, where they met King Jean. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
In view of the help given to Gilneth by the Demon Hunter Knights during the Werewolf Plague, Jean did not hesitate to agree to attend the summit and enthusiastically kept Edward. However, Edward did not have time to attend the banquet and politely declined and came to Orgrim.
Edward didn't expect the Horde's acting Grand Chieftain Garrosh to attend the summit, and he set his sights on King Sarufar!
According to intelligence, Orgrimmar's situation is not calm - the failure of Garrosh's strategy against Gilneys, and the return of King Sarufar from Northrend, have led to an inevitable confrontation between the old and new generations of orc leaders. Although Garrosh is the leader of the newborn orcs and the acting High Chief, he is not at the advantage.
Both the advisor Itreig and the Darkspear Troll's patriarch Wojin were on Sarufar's side, believing that Sarufar, an old orc general who had fought in almost all of the Orc's battles, was more suitable as the Great Chief of the Tribe.
When Edward and Hayley appeared in the council hall of the Gromash fortress, Garrosh, seated on the throne, was arguing with Sarufar, who had been blaming him for several of his defeats.
"Guards, what are you doing, guards!" Garrosh finally burst into anger at the sight of Edward and Hayley in the Gromash fortress, "Are you all stupid? Why are these two paladins here and I don't know!"
"I let them in, Grand Chief. Sarufar had not wanted to get involved in Orgrim's affairs, but when he received Woking's letter, he had returned from Northrend. For the sake of the tribe, he didn't want to watch the great chief continue to be reckless.
"Sarufar, you're not the Great Chief, what qualifications do you have to let these two rival factions into our command center!" Garrosh roared.
"Calm down, Garrosh. Sarufar struggled to hold back his anger and said, "As I said, I didn't come back to compete with you for the position of High Chief! Since Thrall handed over the position of Acting High Chief to you, I must follow his wishes! Moreover, Edward and the Demon Hunter Knights are not on the opposite side!He has given our tribe a great help!"
When Sarufar publicly stated that he was not here to compete for the position of Grand Chief, Garrosh calmed down a little and snorted heavily.
Edward glanced at Garrosh and nodded to Sarufar and his sons, Woking, and Itreig, "I'm here to invite you to the Azeroth Summit in a few days, right at Rivendell Fortress. The Dawn Elves, the Apocalypse, and the Minotaurs of the tribe have agreed to attend the summit. β
"Rivendell Fortress?" said Edward, and the first thing everyone in the audience reacted to was the location of the summit. The place of Rivendell Fortress is very ingenious, although it is located in the Eastern Kingdom Continent, where the tribe's power is not comprehensive, but it is close to the tribe's Dark City, and across the sea is the tribe's Silver Moon City, so everyone here has no reason to refuse.
"Why the summit?" Garrosh said directly, "I don't trust you Demon Hunter Knights, we won't participate without a clear reason!"
"Garrosh, as the acting Grand Chief of the Horde, don't you realize that disaster is coming?" said Edward calmly.
"Calamity?" said Garrosh with a sneer, "Is there a more terrible catastrophe than the one we orcs faced in the first place?"
"It seems that you are not only reckless, but also naΓ―ve. β
"What did you say, Edward Lee!" Garrosh roared again, "and if you can't give a good reason, you don't want to leave Orgrim!"
"Do you think Thrall is trying to give you the position of High Chief for the time being, just to go on a trip to relax?" Edward laughed, "While Thrall was bent on saving Azeroth, abandoning his leadership and risking his own safety, you, the acting High Chief, were still here engaged in infighting and eliminating dissidents?" β
"Let me tell you what kind of catastrophe we are about to face. Before Garrosh could refute, Edward exclaimed, "Deathwing Netsario, the fallen guardian of the earth, is about to reappear, bringing with him the curse of the Elder Gods and countless demons. He gained enough power to destroy all of Azeroth, and in doing so, brought the Elemental Plane closer to Azeroth. If we can't destroy him the first time, then unimaginable elemental creatures, Void Demons, Twilight Cultists, and Black Dragons will wreak havoc and bring destruction to all living people, including the Alliance and the Horde!"
As soon as Edward finished speaking, everyone, including Garrosh, gasped - only now did they understand why Thrall had left his position as the Great Chief and gone out alone.
A solemn atmosphere began to fill the fortress of Grommash as the tension of the old and new orcs replaced it.
"We, the Darkspear Trolls, will be here at this summit. After a moment of silence, Woking was unexpectedly the first to speak, "I've felt this way ever since we found signs of Twilight's hammer reappearing. Regardless, dealing with Deathwing is the top priority right now. β
"That's right, whether it's true or not, we have to take it seriously. Sarufar followed suit, and at the same time looked at Garrosh and said, "Orgrimmar is still in chaos, so let me attend this summit on behalf of the High Chief and the orcs." β
Garrosh didn't plan to go to Edward's lair in the first place, he knew that the last time he had sent the Kukaron Guards to hunt down Edward had been revealed, and he didn't want to go to the place that scared him. Seeing that Sarufar volunteered, he snorted and acquiesced.
"Very well, then the goblins ...... there"
"I'll leave it to Garivicos, the goblin trade prince. Little Sarufar said.
"I'd like to ask if the Coalition will be at this summit as well?" Woking asked.
"Of course. Edward said, "This summit will not only be attended by His Majesty Varian of the Alliance, Muradine of the Council of the Three Hammers, Mecatok the Grand Artisan, King Jean, Priest Tyrande, and Prophet Viren, but also Malfurion of the Council of Cenarion, Grand Lord of Fording of the Knights of the Silver Hand, Muon of the Ring of the Earth, Archmage of Ronin of Dalaran, etc. In addition, as one of the five-colored guardian dragons, the other four guardian dragons are responsible for this disaster, and it is possible that they will send representatives to participate. β
After Edward's introduction, everyone in the audience took another breath. If all of Edward's words are true, then it is certain that this summit will be the largest in the history of Azeroth!
Garrosh even regretted letting Sarufar attend the summit for him, and there was no doubt that those who could attend the summit would surely gain great prestige.
