Chapter 266: The Missing King

Compared to weapons and ammunition, David felt that these everyday items were the things that he had to take with him when he traveled to other worlds, especially those like Azeroth.

After packing their bags, David and Laura then found Gianna, who led the two to Azeroth, and after a brief hello to Fortin, Gianna continued to use teleportation spells to send the two to Ironforge.

"Have fun!"

Instead of choosing to go with David and Laura, Gianna used a teleportation spell to go directly to Dalaran, retrieve some things, and return to Winterfell.

David and Laura took a brief walk around Ironforge before taking the subway to Stormwind.

"This is Stormwind!"

Walking out of the dwarven quarters and looking around on the banks of the canal, Laura noticed that Stormwind didn't look as special as Ironforge, and there didn't seem to be anything special about the city.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the cities of this world are not so dirty and smelly, and although Stormwind has some areas with poor hygiene, it is still very clean overall.

"Are you going to find Varian next?"

"Well, once we're done talking to Varian about establishing diplomatic relations, we'll go to Northshire Abbey."

David and Laura, though not like Tirio Fordin, have immense fame and prestige throughout Azeroth.

But after saving Quel'Thalas and helping Lordaeron deal with the Scourge Legion, Davy is no longer an obscure minor player in Azeroth.

Although he is not as well-known as Quel'Salas and Lordaeron on the Stormwind Kingdom's side, the higher-ups of the Stormwind Kingdom definitely know him.

So he could have gone straight to Stormwind Fortress and asked to meet King Varian by name.

Under normal circumstances, even if Varian and David didn't know each other, with his current reputation, Varian would have met him in person, not to mention that the two had known each other for a long time.

But things often like to be unexpected, and after David arrives at Stormwind Fortress and asks to see Varian, he fails to meet the king of the Stormwind Kingdom, who is met by Grand Duke Berval Vortagen.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Duke Berval-Vortagen."

"I'm glad to meet you again, Baron Glamorgan."

"Ahem, I'm an earl now!"

"Oh, please forgive my faux pas, Earl Glamorgan."

The last time the two met was not a pleasant memory, and Bolval was directly expelled back to Stormwind by David, so Bolval didn't have the slightest good impression of David, the "prophet".

However, as the Duke of the Stormwind Kingdom, he still met this powerful being who helped the Lordaeron Kingdom and the High Elf Kingdom Quel'Salas on behalf of the king at this time, and he showed due etiquette.

As for the Prophet he had met at the beginning, David Glamorgan, who had saved Quel'Salas and helped the Kingdom of Lordaeron, he had learned from His Majesty the King when the news reached the Kingdom of Stormwind.

"I don't know ...... His Majesty Varian-Ureon"

"Your Majesty's body is not very well."

"That's ...... so."

David felt that something was not quite right, Varian was one of the most powerful warriors in Azeroth, and he couldn't remember what illness the Var King had in the episode.

After an awkward conversation with the Grand Duke of Stormwind, David found that Berval didn't seem to know a lot about many things, at least the Grand Duke hadn't asked him about Prince Anduin.

Without seeing Varian himself, David quickly said goodbye to the Grand Duke.

"Let's go!"

Coming out of the Winter Fortress, David looked back at the rather spectacular castle, and David found that this trip to Azeroth was probably not just a vacation.

"What now?"

"Get out of Stormwind first." Davy thought for a few seconds, glanced into a dark corner, and then made a decision.

He doesn't

I'm ready to stay in Stormwind City, and my original plan to spend two or three days in Stormwind City has been abandoned.

Laura didn't ask anything and followed David out of town. As soon as they walked out of Stormwind, the two of them immediately broke away from the main road and walked east into the forest.

"It's time to come out!"

When you enter the forest, the tall and dense trees obscure the sky and the view, and it is difficult to see in the distance.

Similarly, people from afar cannot see what is going on inside the forest, and a relatively safe environment can be obtained here.

A sturdy man in leather armor stepped out of the shadows, his figure slowly becoming clear, and immediately spread his hands to show that he had no ill intentions: "I'm sorry to meet you in this way, Lord Davy-Count Glamorgan."

"You are ......" David guessed the identity of the other party from what he was wearing, how he acted, and how he called out his "identity", but he still had to confirm it.

"I'm MI7's Matthias Shore."

Seeing that David nodded, Madias was sure that the other party knew who he was and knew that he could talk about business directly.

Before he could speak, he heard David ask himself, "What is the situation with His Majesty Varian-Ureon?"

"His Majesty is missing."

"Huh?"

David looked at Madias in front of him in surprise, the expression on the face of the leader of MI7 was not very good-looking, and the look full of self-blame made David realize that the crisis in the Stormwind Kingdom was probably not solved much.

"What's going on?"

Matthias didn't hide anything from David, and he knew more about the intelligence chief than Bovar-Furtagen.

In addition to the fact that His Majesty the King sent Prince Anduin specifically to the Earl's domain, there are many details of what David did in the north of the continent.

Matthias knew that David in front of him was an extremely powerful user of the Light, and was even called the embodiment of the Light by the High Elves of Quel'Thalas and the knights of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

Now that His Majesty Varian-Urion is missing and there are undercurrents in the Stormwind Kingdom, Matthias doesn't know what to do, and Davy comes to the Stormwind Kingdom at this time, giving him someone he can turn to.

Madias immediately found David, and when David asked about the situation, he immediately told the story in detail.

When Varian discovered that there was a raging undercurrent within the Stormwind Kingdom, he sent Anduin to Winterfell, a matter that only Madias knew.

Varian then began to disguise himself and operate in the territory of the Stormwind Kingdom.

While in the Elwyn Forest, everything was going well.

Although many problems were discovered, Varian remained in contact with MI7, and His Majesty gradually sorted out the context and seemed to know what he should do.

But after following the clues all the way to the western wilderness, things began to go badly, and even not long ago, His Majesty the Kingdom himself suddenly disappeared.

"His Majesty was investigating Edwin Van Cleef's whereabouts before he disappeared."

"Who are you talking about?"

"Edwin Van Cleef."

「……」

David was tempted to say, "It's impossible!" , because Edwin Van Cleef is in his Winterfell at this time, serving as the intelligence leader of Winterfell, how can he have the kung fu to make trouble in the Wild West?

But he suddenly thought that at this time, a lot of troubles within the Storm Kingdom were caused by the black dragon Onexia, although the black dragon was pierced by Fordin, and she could no longer use Katrana-Presto's identity to hide inside the Storm Kingdom, but that didn't mean that she couldn't continue to make trouble.

After all, Fording had only banished Onexia from Stormwind in the first place, and had not killed the black dragon princess.

So, this Van Cleeff who popped up again, maybe it was faked by the Black Dragon Princess? Or maybe it's a fake specially pushed out by the Black Dragon Princess, and Varian is likely to be following this clue

When you were caught by the Black Dragon Princess?

"What do you know about this Van Cleef?"

"I know this Van Cleef is a fake."

Madias directly stated that he knew that the real Van Cleef had gone to Winterfell, and that the Van Cleef who was currently directing the Defia Brotherhood to scourge the Wild West and the Elwyn Forest, and even infiltrate the Twilight Forest, was not himself.

"What else?"

"His whereabouts are very secretive, and even the members of the Brotherhood of Defia don't know where he usually stays." Matthias said a lot, but there wasn't much useful information at all: "I can only be sure of one thing, he is indeed in the Wild West."

David shook his head speechlessly, he didn't know what to say about the MI7 intelligence officers.

They can indeed find important intelligence information and find out the truth, but they will always be half a beat slower!

When things are confusing and they don't know which direction to investigate, they can't help much.

"I'll go see for myself in the Wild West!"

He didn't expect to ask for any more information, and he and Laura didn't have a clear purpose anyway, so they just helped find Varian's whereabouts.

"Lord Earl Glamorgan." Madias hurriedly called David, saying that he still had something to say, "Your Royal Highness...... Prince"

"He's doing well in Winterfell, and there's something new to learn every day."

Matthias didn't want to say that, he wanted David to bring His Royal Highness Prince Anduin back to Stormwind before going to find His Majesty's whereabouts, but there were some things he couldn't say clearly, and he didn't have the authority to make such a request.

He had hoped that David would have offered to do this, but in this case, David did not want Anduin to return to Stormwind at this time.

Davy really didn't want Anduin to come back at such a time, unless it was certain that Varian was dead and that the Stormwind Kingdom needed a new king. Otherwise, what can Anduin do when he comes back? He can't do anything, and he won't be of any help in finding Varian, so he can only be a decoration in Stormwind!

"I'll bring your king back as soon as possible."
