Volume 5 The Return of the King 292 Wave after Wave
Gianna handed me the letter, which she had already read for me in advance. Stormwind has written again.
This time it was written by Varian himself, and it was written succinctly and clearly, that is, I was asked to immediately give up all other work at hand, and to assess the situation of the war as soon as possible, and report to him truthfully.
Varian's tone in the letter was tough, and you could see how eager he was right now. Of course, the information he revealed in the letter can indeed feel why he is so anxious.
The tribe's side is no longer ready to move, it is no secret that they have increased their troops in the Valley of Thorns, and the current situation is that not only in the Valley of Thorns but also near the Dark Swamp their people have appeared. This kind of thing cannot be tolerated.
I can totally understand him, it's not that the Horde didn't notify Varian of its actions or that it posed a threat to the Stormwind Kingdom or anything like that, and that the land around the kingdom was considered the Stormwind Kingdom's sphere of influence. Their actions were a temptation, a provocation, a deception, and a kind of nonchalance to Varian, which a monarch would never tolerate.
And now this expedition is not only costing money, but also a large population, the most expensive and elite male population of the Storm Kingdom, the impact of their departure is not only whether the land is more or less than last year, whether the food is abundant, the growth of the population and the total economy is also the core and most important issue of the kingdom.
The longer the delay, the greater the chance of missing out, and this kind of passive situation can definitely be imagined as long as it is not faint and mentally retarded. Varian was really in a hurry to do this.
The elves' affairs are actually half dealt with at the moment, and the disappearance of Nalarex is a big deal, and he will have a very uneasy life in the future, Gianna said that what she learned is that the elves have issued an ultimatum to find Nalarex no matter what the cost.
Hehe, no matter what the cost......
Just this sentence can know how seriously the elves attach this matter. But it can't be helped, although Nalarex said some things, but the secret on his body must be much more than that, then again, even if he has no secrets, this guy must be caught, and in a way, he may cause much more harm than the one named Illidan.
After all, the problem he caused was to lead to the destruction of both the source of the elves' power and the spiritual world, and the druids were not strictly a religion in the Night Elf race, but its role was to ensure that the Night Elves had enough self-preservation ability. The druids are messengers of nature, the link between their race and nature. The rise and fall of the druids directly affected the continuation and development of the Night Elf race.
However, the druid's spiritual home and source of strength, the Emerald Dream, was unexpectedly polluted, like a mud dot splashed on a white shirt. Even if the Night Elves don't care about the druids, they will never agree to this, and the fact that this guy has created his own spiritual world will definitely have a serious impact on the druids internally. I don't know if this is a forbidden technique, but the fact that such and such monsters can appear in this guy's dream must be strictly controlled. With something like the Devourer today, it's only a matter of time before an even bigger Destroyer appears.
Another very serious thing is that the elves are very nervous now, and they are understandably nervous, after all, if the tribe continues to make a fuss about this matter, the price that the elves may pay is immeasurable.
Whether Sal will do this or not Gianna has no clear statement, and she can't say anything, all she can do is shake her head and say no, it can't be, I don't think so. But if I were Thrall, no matter how good my relationship with Gianna was, I would definitely not completely reject the continued digging of this matter within the tribe.
This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
It is said that to make yourself invincible, and the prerequisite for making yourself invincible is to let yourself have enough hole cards, and the most critical hole card is to master more loopholes and handles of the opponent. It's up to me whether I use it or not, but I can't help but get hold of these hole cards.
Besides, the current tribe is not what Thrall himself said, Thrall is just a big chief, as far as the orc race is concerned, there are several tribes, one of which is the Warsong clan and the elves have a long-standing hatred. Hell's Roaring Father Grom. Hell's Roar slashed the demigod Cenarius, a friend of the Night Elves and an important mentor of the Night Elf druids, which also provoked a conflict between the orcs and the elves that have not been reconciled to this day.
And this feat was remembered by the orcs, the chief of the Warsong Clan, Grom. Hellroar died heroically to save his tribe and save his own people, and his spirit is not only remembered by the tribe, but it is said that it has been well passed down and passed down to this day. As for this opportunity, if I were Grom's son, Gromache, I would never let it go.
It's true that orcs don't study druid spells, but that doesn't affect the progress of this matter, the dark spear trolls are led by Sarma, and the people who can study druid spells the most are minotaurs. Moreover, even if the Dark Spear Trolls are all law-abiding, it is likely that they will be in the spotlight for investigating the Emerald Dream in the end.
I didn't tell Gianna about this place, but only Egwen, and I described to her in detail how I came into contact with the Emerald Dream and how I got into it.
Egwene was amazed that I had been able to enter that world, she had only heard of it but had never been there, and when I described the whole thing she had made her guess.
Oh, her guess is almost the same as mine, in fact, I also want her to have such a guess. That is, the pollution of the Emerald Dream actually started a long time ago, when it was because the trolls' voodoo spells summoned some bad Loa gods, and the dragons who had been watching them for so long must have been affected by voodoo spells. This is also the reason why there are a large number of creatures related to trolls in the Emerald Dream Realm.
Therefore, if the Night Elves investigate it, it will inevitably fall on the trolls in the end, although the elves most likely don't know about this, but they have already targeted the trolls with suspicions.
Egwen said this, but she said another sentence directly to my heart. She said, "This matter actually has something to do with you!" ”
I snorted and half-jokingly said how could it have anything to do with me, but she shook her head, looked at me with some concern, reached out and stroked my face, and said, "Actually, you know right? ”
I didn't answer her, I don't like to be seen what I'm thinking. In particular, these things that may cause misunderstandings and adverse consequences are even more reluctant to be discovered, let alone mentioned. Even if she's someone I love.
"Now the power and shadow in your body have been suppressed, but back then, you were not what you are now, if I am not mistaken, the darkness on your body is the key to the problems of the Jade Dream Realm later."
I pursed my lips and looked at her with a frown, but the worry in her eyes gave me no comfort.
"Maybe not?" I say.
"I hope not." She said. "I also hope my speculation is wrong."
"I can't solve this problem."
"Then leave it to them." Egwene said softly.
I said goodbye to her again and embarked on the journey south, and only when I got to the front did I have more say. But I decided that the first thing I did when I got to the front line was to ask Varian to immediately make sure that the transportation and communications in and around the Stormwind Kingdom and even to the dwarven allies were perfected. This is not only a question of the comfort of the journey, but also a problem of more timely and efficient delivery of information, manpower and materials.
I've walked enough! I've never been more eager to fly in the sky than I am now. It was a painstaking and thrilling journey, and perhaps because of my age, I began to worry more and more about this inefficient way of acting. If necessary, I can't walk 1,000 days and 800 nights, but now I really don't want to move.
That's where their march came from, thanks to young, vigorous and energetic half-sized men, and if they were all my age, they would probably have to fall halfway through.
When I arrived at the front, the battle had just begun, and they were all busy, and I watched them toss and turn in a blank manner. A large number of bug troops appeared near the battle line outside the camp, either bugmen or bugs. Bugs the size of a table and a stool rushed towards our military lines, while the bugs flying in the air attacked our soldiers in all directions directly from top to bottom.
They didn't take care of me, and I didn't want them to take care of me, so I didn't go to war, but sat on the wall and watched them fight desperately in the distance. The tribe didn't show up, and I didn't see where the tribe's military camp was.
The battle lasted for most of the day, and although the insects were fierce, our warriors eventually repelled the attack of the insects. It was only after the battle that I met their commander. Gavinrad's stinky face made me laugh involuntarily when he saw me, and perhaps my laughter also gave a tired smile to his blood-stained face.
I can't remember how long I hadn't seen him, he was a good soldier, but he wasn't a very good friend, at least I hadn't seen him when I was in trouble, but I didn't resent him.
Gavinrad's hospitality made me frown, but then I was relieved that it was the best food he could come up with. He's always been a guy who doesn't speak well.
I conveyed the King's orders and instructions, and he briefed me on the current state of the battle, and said that the latest report had just been sent to Stormwind, but he did not expect the King to give him an answer in time, it was not a day or two journey. But even though the report to the king could not be delivered in time, he was a competent commander-in-chief, and he would do everything in his power to ensure the continuation of the war and the victory of the battle.
I said that I am not here to see his attitude but to assess the war, now Stormwind needs them to either win immediately or withdraw, now the Stormwind Kingdom is facing a more serious problem than this, the orcs now find that the portal is reopened, they have begun to move to the south of the Stormwind Kingdom, if the war here is not over in time, the orcs can draw their hands at any time to launch an attack on our kingdom. So...... Now the war here must be ended as soon as possible, in any case.
Demand immediate action!
