NO.0434 A STORM KINGDOM THAT WAS REBORN
The battle that took place in the palace of Stormwind City, under the cover of the hunter organization, did not spread to the outside world, and the entire Stormwind Kingdom still operated as before, and even the adventurers did not know anything about it.
Reginald Windsor's feat of exposing the identity of the Black Dragon Princess and sacrificing himself to protect the Grand Duke Regent has only been circulated among a small number of people in the know, and has neither been hyped nor written into the annals of history.
Just because of this series of conspiracies, it is really an unacceptable humiliation for the ruling class of the Stormwind Kingdom, and any person in power in the kingdom will cover up this kind of self-defeating thing.
Epics have always been about good and glorious feats, and this has always been the case, and the world of Azeroth is no exception.
Therefore, Marshal Windsor, who endured humiliation, still gave the impression of being a "madman!" and "insane!" in the Storm Kingdom, which made those who knew what he had done feel even more guilty about Windsor in their hearts.
Among them, the most fierce reaction was Marcus Jonathan, the commander of the Stormwind City Defense Guard, who survived the catastrophe.
When the old soldier learned the truth, he was immediately furious because of the result of this unfair treatment, dragged his weakened body after being healed by the holy light, rushed directly to the palace, and scolded the Grand Duke Regent.
Even the families of the great nobles in the manor near the palace could faintly hear the roar of the old general that lasted all day.
Compared to the two veterans who were killed and seriously wounded, the situation of Boval-Vortagan is undoubtedly much stronger. After the destruction of the badge that helped control his sanity, the powerful paladin had fully regained his consciousness.
In the face of Marcus Jonathan, who roared like desperately, Berval Vortagan was completely uncontrolled and domineering, and listened silently and did not say anything throughout the entire process of the other party's insults.
As far as Boval-Fortaghan himself is concerned, although his great strength has allowed him to be controlled, he also remembers all the things of the past after he sobers up, and as a paladin known for his justice and benevolence, he has the strongest guilt for Windsor in his heart.
But as a regent archduke, Berval-Vortagen had to suppress his thoughts. Everything is in the interests of the country.
As for what exactly happened later. How the Grand Duke Regent appeased Marcus Jonathan is not a secret that outsiders can know, in short, the old general finally calmed down his anger and walked out of the palace to stop asking about this matter.
Time is so unconscious. Half a year has passed.
Regent Grand Duke regained his senses. Finally, it is no longer as mediocre as before. Under his self-tormenting handling of government affairs, the situation in the Stormwind Kingdom began to improve significantly
The many bandits roaming in the Elwin Forest were jointly wiped out by various local armies in the past six months. Except for a few insignificant wandering gangs, the looting of the merchant has been basically prevented.
Now, half a year later, the Elwyn Forest is prosperous and harmonious, and the refugees who have poured into the Stormwind Kingdom from all over the world are finally able to rely on their own hands to survive in this land that is no longer a stranger
The Fourth Legion of the Storm Kingdom, also four months ago, officially entered the Western Wilderness Province, and under the large-scale blow, the power of the Brotherhood of Defia has been hit from an upright activity to having to go underground.
Basically all the large cities, as well as most of the small and medium-sized cities, were stationed under the garrison of the Fourth Army Corps, and began to rebuild intensively, and the abandoned farmland in the fields began to be sown
At the same time, Brigadier General Hammond Clay was also officially promoted to major general, with a large amount of supplies and more than 80,000 troops, and drove to the Burning Plains, replacing Wendthor as the acting commander of the Second Army.
With the support of such a new force, the remnants of the Second Army Corps, which were already in danger, finally gained a foothold in the Burning Plains, not only moving from the remote mountains to the plains, but also building a small fortress city that was beginning to take shape, holding the main transportation routes
The Third Legion and the Sixth Legion of the Stormwind Kingdom also advanced the Province of Twilight Forest, which was occupied by many dark forces, from the northeast and due west respectively, and had already achieved gratifying results in the planned battle.
Now more than half of the old land has been recovered under the iron hooves of two powerful regular legions, except for the undead activity area in the northwest of the Twilight Forest that needs to be slowly purified, a large number of ogres and active werewolves have been captured and killed
Shortly after joining the other two legions into the Province of Twilight Forest, the Fifth Legion of the Stormwind Kingdom marched eastward on its own, crossing the inaccessible area known as the "Windward Trail" towards the Cursed Lands south of the Swamp of Sorrows.
There is a beachhead left behind after the human alliance counterattacked the orcs more than 100 years ago and entered the dark gate, and it has been attacked by orcs, ogres, demons and other evil creatures many times in the past ten years, and is in urgent need of the help of the Storm Kingdom
Under the premise that the entire kingdom is running at full capacity, the Stormwind Kingdom also offered a huge reward of tens of millions of gold coins in the name of the Grand Duke Regent, and recruited hundreds of thousands of mercenaries and thousands of adventurers.
These combat powers, which did not possess the strength of large-scale warfare, but were able to shine in local battles, entered the Valley of Thorns, the base camp of the trolls, in various ways one after another, and carried out various activities and reconnaissance
In short, because of Wendsol's sacrifice, the Storm Kingdom has begun to burst out with a strong vitality from the precarious situation of surviving, and the entire country has begun to transform from the inside out, so that the soldiers and civilians of each kingdom can clearly perceive the changes.
But all this is no different for Yang Long.
Although in that battle, under the full force of the Grand Duke's blow, Yang Long suffered a lot, but after cultivating for more than half a month, the old butcher was alive again.
In half a year, life has returned to its original state again, but there is one less cheeky old guy who eats and drinks.
To be honest, Yang Long felt a little uncomfortable at first, and it wasn't until three or four months had passed that he slowly forgot about Wendsol's existence from his life, and in addition to the necessary cultivation, he was looking through a large number of documents and materials in a planned manner all day long.
As a member of the Wendsol plan, on the surface, he gave people the feeling that he had a relatively deep friendship with the old marshal, and when the Grand Duke regained consciousness for a month, Yang Long received the expected reward.
Through a simple ceremony, Berval-Vortagen, with Yang Long's consent, officially conferred the title of nobility on the old butcher baron as a reward for his efforts to make the Black Dragon Princess manifest itself.
Yang Long did not have any objection to this, although the Grofe family lived in Stormwind City, they had always been like a traveler who came to the master's house as a guest, and after obtaining this title, his family could be protected.
And with the identity of a nobleman, although he is only a small nobleman, Yang Long can also read many documents and materials he wants through this identity, and constantly prepare for the upcoming opportunity.
As a baron of the Stormwind Kingdom, he can obtain a villa under the protection of the Royal Guard, but it is far less than the family domain.
Therefore, although Yang Long has the title of nobility of the Storm Kingdom, he still lives in the territory of the Grovei family, enjoying the luxurious aristocratic life while enjoying the pleasure of constantly improving his strength.
With the improvement of this half a year, the magic level of Yang Long's dual talents has finally been improved again, from the lower level of the eleventh order to the middle level of the eleventh order, and his own combat power has increased again.
And a week after the rank promotion, Yang Long received a notice of the rally organized by the "Hunter".
