A humble camp not far from the Thirteenth Knights of the Royal Guard, where Tito, the commander of the Scourge Army's Southern Expeditionary Force, lives, and this small semicircular valley has been converted into a temporary command post for the Scourge Army's Southern Expeditionary Force.

Unlike the heavily guarded camp of the Death Knights, it was more of a humble farmstead, with only a few knights patrolling back and forth on Death Horses, but it was common for people to hide in the shadows and observe a necromancer.

Adele rode her death horse to an abandoned wizard's tower, and had just jumped off her horse when she was greeted by another handsome death knight, who gave a knightly salute with one hand on his chest.

"Is it Lord Adele? Master Commander, please go in directly!"

Adele nodded, strode up the steps, her black leather gloved hand pressed lightly on the doorknob, pushed the door open and walked in.

A ray of sunlight poured in through the broken window, leaving a long shadow in the humble room, and Adele, a man of not very tall stature, had his back to Adele, and his body was straight.

"You're here!"

A deep voice rang out, and the man quickly turned around and smiled at Adele.

The man had a pale, bloodless, standard undead face, no age, and was dressed in a very ordinary linen household robe, standing there very casually, exuding an iron-blooded aura similar to that of a soldier, except that his bare head was a little funny no matter how it looked.

"Yes, I'm coming, Mentor!"

Adele respectfully performed a standard knightly salute, and the man in front of him was Tito, the dean of the Royal Military Academy of the Scourge Legion, the commander of the Southern Expeditionary Legion, and the first strong man of the Scourge Legion, in addition, he was also Adele's mentor.

"The prettiest flower in our academy has finally arrived...... No wonder I feel like the room is getting a lot brighter......" Tito said with a smile.

Adele playfully stuck out her tongue, "Why don't you say it's your bald head?

When Tito heard this, he touched his bald head and laughed.

When Adele was studying at the Royal Military Academy, she was rated as one of the top ten beauties in the academy, and there were many suitors, of course, there is a difference between beauty and beauty, whether it is beauty, strength or wisdom, Adele completely crushed the other nine, deservedly the first, in the strength of the fastest improvement, the shortest time to pass the guò exam, many times to refresh the record, known as a genius, and finally directly became a student of the dean, and was personally taught by Tito, so Tito's sentence "the most beautiful flower" is meaningful.

However, Adele understands in her heart that the easy-going Tito tutor on the surface is actually a very strict person, Tito was born in the military camp, and is used to thinking about problems with the thoughts of a soldier, for Adele, the words of the mentor are orders, and the order must be executed immediately, and it cannot be discounted, Adele was once severely punished for practicing 1000 sword moves less than once, and during the time of studying with Tito's tutor, Adele is not so much living in the academy as living in the military camp.

However, in private, Tito is still good to Adele, a genius student, and Adele's strength can be improved from the high level of the Holy Domain to the peak of the Divine Domain, and a large part of it is due to Tito.

The two exchanged a few words of greeting and quickly got to the point.

"Mentor, why are we going to quit?" said Adele bluntly, knowing that Mentor doesn't like too much nonsense.

"Because of the order of His Majesty the Divine Emperor!" Tito said with a slight smile.

"Divine Emperor Majesty?" Adele's brow furrowed, "Mentor, with all due respect, I don't think Divine Emperor Majesty should ...... Should ......"

"Should such a stupid order be given?"

Seeing that Adele was a little hesitant, Tito said it directly, with his identity and status in the Cataclysmic Legion, there was no disrespect to His Majesty the God Emperor, but it was not suitable for Adele.

Adele nodded slightly and fell silent.

Tito smiled, "If this war is concerned, this order does seem stupid now, for whatever reason...... In fact, with the power I currently have, I can choose to refuse in that case...... But ......"

Tito paused, "But this time, I chose to comply!"

"Why?" Adele's expression was a little stunned, but the look on her face flickered, and she knew that what the mentor was going to say was the point.

"Because the Southern Expeditionary Army has more important things to do!"

Tito glanced at Adele, took steps in the room with his hands behind his back, and continued, "Important news from Icecrown Castle that in the northwest direction of the main plane of the undead, a group of undead has appeared, they occupy the Forgotten City, and are constantly expanding towards the Hokan District......"

Seeing that Adele was about to speak, Tito impatiently shook the ground and continued, "But this is not the most important thing, the most important point is...... This undead band popped out of nowhere...... Actually called itself the "Scourge Legion"!"

"What?Scourge Legion?"

Adele's eyes widened, and a look of extreme disbelief appeared on her face, "Wait...... Wait a minute...... Tito Mentor, Khokante is not...... Not orc territory?"

Upon hearing this, Tito's face shrank imperceptibly.

100,000 years ago, on the seventh day when the orcs occupied the Forgotten City, the Scourge-God Emperor Fismarck organized an army of undead to kill the Hokan District, but unfortunately was defeated by the Frost Wolf Legion led by Long, and the wolf fled back, which later even prompted the division of the Scourge Legion, and the Dreaddemon King Saruman left Icecrown Castle with his undead, and the matter of Hokan District was put on hold.

Adele knew that this incident was an eternal pain in Tito's mentor's life, and that battle was commanded by him, and that time, he tasted the shame of defeat, and also accepted the fact that the Scourge Legion went from peak to decline, and the Scourge Legion that lost the Lich King was a mess of scattered sand, defeated again and again in foreign wars, and large areas fell and became someone else's territory.

After some explanation from her mentor, Adele finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

"No wonder the God Emperor hurriedly dispatched the Southern Expeditionary Legion to the north...... Adele thought to herself, and she also felt a little admiration for the "Natural Calamity Legion" that expelled the orc forces, and then she smiled, "So...... Mentor, this time the battle is still in command of you, right?"

Tito's footsteps stopped, he glanced at Adele, but did not speak.

"Very well, Mentor, I think we can join forces again...... Beat up those bastards......" Adele joked, unaware of Tito's evasive gaze.

Adele finally realized that something was wrong with Tito's expression, "Dear mentor, what's wrong with you?"

Tito took a deep breath, "Listen, Adele, I don't think I'll be involved in this war against the Scourge Legion...... So...... I recommend you to His Majesty the Divine Emperor!"

"What?"

Adele was taken aback, "This ...... This...... Mentor...... Why are you doing that?"

"If I were facing an orc, maybe I wouldn't hesitate...... Even if it's a sacrifice, but this time...... Adele, you know, I ...... There's no way I'm going to make a move on the Lich King......" Tito grimaced.

Looking at Adele's puzzled gaze, Tito sighed and said, "Yes, the leader of the "Scourge Legion" also calls himself the "Lich King", in fact, he is the successor of the Lich King, and more importantly, he also has the "Scourge!"

"What? Scourge?"

Adele was taken aback, she realized the seriousness of the matter, it was related to the legitimacy of the Scourge God Emperor Fismarck's rule over the undead main plane, and looking at the appearance of the Mentor, it seemed that she wanted to take a neutral attitude between the two.

Adele took a deep breath and let her chaotic thoughts slowly calm down, she stared at Tito quietly, "Mentor, you and the God Emperor are both people I respect, but...... Do we need to pay attention to the guy who calls himself the "Heir of the Lich King"? maybe...... Maybe he does have the Scepter of Scourge, but ...... But so what? It's just an ordinary artifact...... I don't think ......"

"Adele, you don't understand!" Tito smiled and interrupted Adele's speech, "The Scourge's Scepter is more than just an artifact...... It is the symbol of the Scourge Legion......"

"But...... Tutor ......"

"No...... Listen, Adele......"

Adele became a little anxious, but her speech was interrupted by her mentor again, and at this time, Tito's face became extremely solemn, "I didn't call you here to argue about this issue......

"I have no intention of questioning the legitimacy of His Majesty the God Emperor, but I will not participate in any war against Lord Lich King......"

"So......" Tito smiled reluctantly, patting Adele on the shoulder, "the letter of recommendation is on the table...... Adele, think about it, I have no intention of interfering with your choice, this is a good opportunity for you to make meritorious contributions!"

After Tito finished speaking, he slowly walked out of the room, leaving only Adele in a daze.

Adele hesitated for a long time, looked at a letter that was flat on the desk with the words "His Majesty the God Emperor Xià personally opened", and sighed silently.
