The streets of Lordaeron's upper town have been particularly lively in recent days, with the arrival of foreign missions, both the commercial district and the magical district are very popular, Lordaeron is the commercial center of the Alliance, all kinds of precious materials and expensive magical artifacts can be bought here, so dignitaries from all over the world will also take advantage of their free time to wander around and shop.

However, in this prosperous scene, there are still some discordant things that occasionally happen.

"For the Horde! Lokta - Oga! ”

With a roar, suddenly several orc thieves and assassins appeared around Antonidas who was walking, and in an instant, scimitars, daggers, axes and axes beckoned to Antonidas's body, these people are obviously knowledgeable, knowing that epic heroes like Antonidas have a very thick blood, and they have to have seven or eight thousand if the blood volume of the algorithm profession is low.

Therefore, they all greeted the vital point, that is, they rushed to hit the fatal blow, in case they were going to hit this epic hero with a fatal blow, maybe they could explode a purple suit and orange martial arts or something.

From a distance, five or six orcs with the shape of a big man surrounded an old man, slashing wildly, as if they were about to dismember him in an instant.

However, Antonidas is such a character, I don't know how many magic items are hanging on his body, and several jewelry rings with constant protective magic are activated at the same time.

In an instant, four or five layers of shields of different colors appeared on his body, and this series of attacks was blocked by the shield without any suspense.

Although Antonidas was unscathed, he was also taken aback, and a trace of anger suddenly appeared on the face of the enemy who saw the sneak attack.

"Despicable beast, how dare you be presumptuous in front of me!"

Arcane Blast!

Boom, five or six orc thieves were instantly shattered by the powerful arcane energy, and the remaining few who were far away looked bad, turned around and ran.

However, where can I run away.

Arcane Missile!

A simple and simple move, but the arcane missile cast by the archmage was naturally incomparably powerful, and more than a dozen energy balls appeared around Antonidas, killing these orc assassins who tried to escape one by one.

"Master, Master, leave one for me!" Gianna excitedly raised her staff—Arcane Impact! Boom, the last orc assassin is also settled.

The little girl's excited little face flushed, and her little feet in leather boots kicked the orc corpse on the ground hard.

At this time, a team of royal guards finally hurried over.

"Oh, what's going on here, Wocao is Master Antonidas, you're okay Master."

"I'm fine, but these despicable orcs are getting more and more arrogant, I've been assassinated three times in the past two days, can't you, as the security officer of the embassy district, do something?"

In the face of Antonidas's accusations, the god of war Lu Bu is also a little helpless, he now regrets taking this job, the orc heroes did not wait for two days, but the orc adventurers emerged in an endless stream, and they came out to die like a gathering, these guys don't know if they took the wrong medicine, they stared at the plot characters, and often the result was the destruction of the whole army.

But because they are adventurers, they can be resurrected after death, even if the god of war Lu Bu has been on guard for the past two days, it is useless, the orc assassins not only did not decrease, but became more and more frequent, and they acted in groups of three or five, openly assassinating the envoys and dignitaries of various countries who came to participate.

In the end, they really got them a few times, but because there was no participation in the plot characters, the few plot characters who were killed were only seriously injured, and they were swiped out of the Holy Light Cathedral the next day.

"I'll step up my precautions—if that doesn't work, I'll go to the palace and send another group of guards out to help."

While the two were talking, on a small two-story building not far away, Varian was watching what was happening downstairs through the crack in the attic window.

In his heart, he was not surprised by the rampant nature of these orc assassins, Godwin said that he was going to throw the pot that assassinated Terenus to the orc assassins, but he didn't expect so many orc assassins to appear, it seems that there must be some connection between the two, and the appearance of these orc assassins always feels a bit too coincidental......

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the stairs.

As soon as Varian turned around, he saw a black knife in black tight leather armor coming up from downstairs.

"Prince Varian, it looks like you've arrived early, are you in such a hurry to see me?" Black Knife Dixie's voice was teasing.

Varian was unmoved, "Don't talk nonsense, did you bring something?" ”

"Of course." Black Knife Dixi said, pulling out a purple magic orb and a sheepskin map.

"This is a deception orb, which can transform a humanoid creature into the form of a different humanoid creature, the plan is very simple, wait until tomorrow when the big parade begins, you will go to meet the king of Tenaris, Tenaris will think that you will be subdued, and will definitely meet you, so you will take the opportunity to disguise yourself as an orc and kill him.

King Tenaris has eight elite royal guards, two court mages, and two court priests around him, but with your strength as the Storm God of War, you think you can handle it.

Remember to keep a live mouth so that things will be thrown on the orcs, just as the orc assassins have been appearing constantly recently, which is perfect for throwing the pot.

After the matter is over, you just follow the line on this map and retreat, my master has already arranged everything. ”

Varian took the orb and the map, and played with it, the purple orb emitting a strange magical light.

The map is also very detailed.

It does sound like a foolproof plan, but—

Varian glanced at Black Knife Dixie, "How can I believe you won't cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”

"Rest assured, Your Highness Varian, my master is not hostile to you, so what good is it for my master to do so?

Any betrayal requires the temptation of profit, the reason why King Tenaris betrayed the Stormwind Kingdom and did not send reinforcements is because he wants to get the submission of the Stormwind Kingdom, but my master has no interest in this matter, he only wants to inherit the throne of Lordaeron, if he betrays you, won't he be afraid that you will announce all this secret agreement? That would undoubtedly be very bad for him.

So don't worry, he'll want to cover it all up more than you do. And once he becomes king, my master will urgently need to wage war against the orcs to increase his prestige, so he will definitely help you restore his kingdom, and what better way to increase his prestige within the alliance than to help a fallen prince restore his kingdom? ”

That sounds like that, but Varian is no longer the ignorant boy he used to be.

"I need you to pay half of the money upfront."

"For example?"

"Give me back the Stormwind Fleet, and as for the soldiers I recruited, you can keep them until the matter is over."

Black Knife Dixi shook his head, "This matter was personally ordered by the king, and my master cannot be the master." ”

"Hmph, he's the prince of the kingdom, he can always have some power, don't tell me I can't even call a few ships, anyway, I won't do it until you show sincerity."

"Prince Varian, you're asking my master for help, don't be too arrogant."

"Hehe, your master has put so much effort into promoting this matter, I think he is more anxious about this matter than me, go ahead, tell him my conditions, tomorrow is the big military parade, and time waits for no one."

Black Knife Dixi was a little annoyed, but he still closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about the pros and cons, but in fact, he was communicating with Godwin through a private message channel.

"Okay, my prince agreed, but the warships of the Stormwind Kingdom are personally supervised by the king's people, and my master can't call them, but I can send you a few warships from the Lordaeron fleet, and as for the captains and sailors, it's up to you to recruit them."

Varian nodded, "Yes, that's decided. ”

Varian quickly had his men take over the ships.

He didn't trust Godwin, but he did want to kill Tenaris, and whether Godwin would turn his face after the fact, he was ready to go to sea to Northrend as soon as possible, and the time agreed with Kelthugad was almost up.

But before it all started, he needed to say goodbye to someone.

——————

Half an hour later - in a room in the embassy district.

Varian (Prince of the Storm): "Big brother, I'm ready to leave. ”

Mo Fei was a little surprised, which couldn't help but be a little abrupt, "Is the matter already done?" Have you convinced King Tenaris? ”

Varian shook his head, "Not yet, but it shouldn't be a big problem, tomorrow I will go to King Tenaris to explain the stakes and ask him to return my fleet and soldiers, King Tenaris is a reasonable man, I think he will agree to my request." ”

Murphy was a little incredulous, and Varian's attitude was too straightforward, right?

His expression became serious: "Varian, second brother, are you hiding something from me?" If you have any trouble, you can tell me, as your big brother, we have sworn that I will definitely help you.

Don't worry if Tenaris wants to mess with you, what about the king, mess with my brother Aidan, and it's over. ”

Varian was moved for a while, but he shook his head, "I'm afraid you won't be able to help me with this." ”

Mo Feixin said that something really happened, "That's not necessarily, how do you know that I can't help you if you don't say it?" ”

Seeing that Murphy was so resolute, Varian no longer hid it, and told Tenaris about his purpose and his agreement with Godwin.

Finally, he said: "This is the case, Godwin has made a pact with me, I will help him kill Tenaris, and he will help me restore my kingdom after he succeeds to the throne."

I'm not sure if he's going to keep his promise, so I've made some covert arrangements that should make a difference, but if there's one thing I've learned from the war with the orcs over the past year, it's that things often don't go as planned, so I'm a little worried. ”

Mo Fei was extremely surprised when he heard it, Wo Cao, this Godwin is really courageous, and he even wants to stage the filial piety of his father and son.

The problem is that our brothers were a partnership of more than 20 people, and you are too confident to perform the filial piety of your father and son alone.

And they did all this with the help of orcs, and your kingdom of Lordaeron is in the rear, and there is no threat from orcs at all, so you still do this, can you do it?

There have been a lot of orc assassins active in Lordan Lun lately, and it seems that he must have made it.

Yes, that's right - nine times out of ten, this is really unconditional.

Murphy thought for a while, the promise given by Godwin may be true, but it may also be false, what if he turns his face at that time, throws the pot directly on Varian, and then swallows the remnants of the Stormwind Kingdom?

Although the Orb of Deception can turn into an orc, there are many mages of Lordaeron, and it would be bad if someone dispels Varian with a dispel spell.

This kind of thing can't be risked.

His mind spun around twice, and suddenly an idea struck.

"There it is! You do this, you do this, you do this! It should be foolproof. ”

Varian was dumbfounded, "But is this possible?" ”

"Don't worry, it's definitely easy, but you definitely can't do this alone, I can't do it either, I have to find adventurers to help, don't you have a lot of adventurer followers, ask them for help."

Varian shook his head and sighed, "They've all died in Stormwind. A tear crossed his eyes, and he remembered the tragic scene in King's Port, where countless adventurers paved the way for him to survive with their blood.

Mo Fei smiled mysteriously when he heard this, "That's not necessarily, adventurers have their own skills, maybe there are other survivors, you might as well go to the adventurer's guild to have a look, maybe there will be an unexpected gain." ”
