Tyrenus, who was seated in the palace of Lordaeron, held on to his sick body and personally sent off the main army commanded by Alexandros Mowglini.

With Princess Galia on her back, a panting Terenus returned to his room and lay down again.

"Hey~"

Looking out the window at the gloomy sky, Terenus sighed worriedly.

Princess Jialia pulled up the quilt for him and comforted him softly: "Father, please take care of your health, Lordaeron is still inseparable from your leadership." ”

Terenus smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I know that Arthas is far from mature enough...... It was my fault that I was so focused on that ethereal dream that I didn't teach him enough. ”

"This turmoil in Alterac is a punishment for my quick success."

Terenus sighed faintly again: "Over the years, Lordaeron has offended too many people, and my old friends can't wait to teach Lordaeron a profound lesson. ”

Princess Galia was stunned and asked, "How come?" Didn't General Moglini lead the army? Alterac's defenders alone can't stop his troops, right? ”

"Hehe~"

Terenus gave a rare look of kindness and patted Galia on the head.

"You're too young to see the international situation around Lordaeron."

"Look, it's definitely not just the remnants of Alterac who are involved in this rebellion, and those who have long seen the opportunity will jump out to support Alterac one by one."

"Moglini also knows in his heart, he is an excellent general with an excellent view of the overall situation, if he can't do anything, Moglini will not fight the enemy to the end."

"The Seven Kingdoms of Mankind...... Hehe~ It's really ironic, it seems that this ancient term will continue to continue. ”

"If you want to unify the seven kingdoms of the human race, is it just a dream after all?"

……

Terenus's prediction was accurate.

As Moglini led his army to the shores of Lake Lordamere, a fog never before rose from the lake without warning, and the area around the lake was completely obscured by a thick fog that could not be seen.

Mowglini frowned and ordered the march to stop, and Duane, the leader of the mage regiment who was accompanying the army, urgently went to ask for an audience.

"Alexander, this fog is not a natural formation, but someone has cast a spell in the middle of the lake to catalyze and continue to convert the lake water into a gaseous spread."

Moglini wasn't surprised, he had received hints from Terenus long before he set off, knowing that the expedition wouldn't be easy.

"So?"

Rather helpless, Mowglini asked his old friend Duane, "Can you dispel the fog?" Or maybe they can use teleportation to send our few elites to the middle of the lake to repel the mages who create the fog? ”

"Uh~"

High-level Arcanist Duane looked embarrassed: "...... No, the enemy seems to have been prepared, and the space around Lake Lordamir is locked in advance, making it impossible to cast teleportation. ”

"Hey~" Mowglini patted his forehead with a headache: "Let the soldiers adapt to the dense fog environment first, and then set off again in 10 minutes, and everyone will march slowly by touching the mountain wall." ”

"Hope...... We can catch up. ”

At the same time, on Fenris Island in the middle of Lake Lordenmere, more than a hundred mages led by Ronin were casting spells in shifts around the lake, ensuring that the dense fog would cover the entire Lake Lordanmere area.

Fenris Island is located between the territorial boundaries of Dalaran, Gilneys, and Lordaeron, and the three kingdoms have tacitly agreed that this island in the lake is a neutral area, and no one can garrison the island.

Luo Ning and the others are ready to open the fire at any time, once the Lordaeron army plans to sail across the lake, they will not leave any excuse for the Lordaeron side, and will immediately lift the space blockade and teleport back to Dalaran Floating City.

Mogarini probably guessed Dalaran's trick and did not send people to Fenris Island to waste time, and ordered the army to continue to touch the mountain wall and advance slowly.

Dalaran will not be directly involved in the military dispute with Lordaeron, at most he will hide and make small moves.

In the same way, Stormgard, who could not draw his hand for the time being, could only give verbal support and could not send troops to support.

Through the pairs of crystal balls set up in advance, Luo Ning and the others could clearly observe the movements of Lordaeron's army in the dense fog.

"Councilor Ronin, they didn't stop, what should we do?"

Luo Ning said unhurriedly: "Don't panic, we just need to complete our tasks, and we can delay as long as we can." ”

"The rest is up to Alterac himself."

'Don't be self-defeating, Sarena. ’

……

The town of Steinbryde, Farcurrest Castle.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the syndicate in the castle, Valeera tried to avoid the fight as much as possible, and only assassinated the syndicate who was guarding the key position when she was forced to do so.

After silently entering the castle, Valera had already searched the ground floor.

As a rule of thumb and convention, Valira speculated that the Barov family might be placed under house arrest in an underground cell.

Contrary to Valeera's expectations, she did not find Haas and Alex in the dungeon.

'None? Is it on the second floor? ’

Before entering the dungeon, Valilla glanced at the layout of the second floor.

Compared with the very simple layout of the first floor and the gloomy dungeon, the second floor is very luxuriously furnished, which should be the floor where the nobles of the original Alterac Kingdom lived.

Time is running out and they must be found as soon as possible. ’

Even if the action was restrained as much as possible, the corpses were hidden one by one, and in this situation where the grass and trees were all soldiers, there was still a possibility that the slain syndicate guards could be found.

Speeding up and rushing through the first floor, where he had memorized the rules of patrolling, and had just crossed the stairs to the second floor, which was very luxuriously furnished, Valeera's elven ears suddenly trembled.

This is ...... The sound of beatings? ’

From one of the rooms on the second floor came a faint muffled sound, followed by a familiar deep voice humming.

"Ka Rub~"

Under the watchful eye of Valeera, who remained sneaky, a door in the middle of the second floor slowly opened halfway, and a bald head sneakily reached out from behind the door, vigilantly observing the situation in the corridor left and right.

'Huh~'

Valera recognized the old man poking his head out as General Haas, who was supposed to be under house arrest in Facurrest Castle.

Sure that there were no more patrols in the hallway, Haas was the first to walk out of the room, waving behind him.

A dozen or so richly dressed nobles of all ages and genders nervously followed Haas, with Alex Barov dragging behind at the end.

"It seems that you have succeeded in convincing some of the nobles."

The sudden whispering sound in his ears made the nervous Haas sweat stand on end, but fortunately, his life experience and combat experience were so rich that he suppressed his panic and did not shout.

After recovering from his panic, Haas noticed that the other man's voice was somewhat familiar.

"Lady Sangunar?"

"It's me."

Valilla unleashed her stealth and appeared in front of Haas, and the nobles behind Haas turned pale with fright, believing that their betrayal had been discovered by the Syndicate's thieves.

Luckily, they noticed Valelan's long ears, which were different from those of humans, and they didn't scream.

"Shh~"

Valeera held up her finger in front of her plump red lips, signaling the nobles to keep quiet.

Haas also hurriedly explained to them: "Don't be afraid, your own people. ”

The two parties didn't waste time catching up in such a dangerous place, and Valilla raised her hand to signal Haas and the others, who were unskilled in stealth, to stay first, and let her go downstairs to kill the syndicates who were patrolling the hall.

About 5 minutes later, Valeera, who was dripping blood, returned to the second floor to meet Haas and the others.

"Almost, the patrol guards in the hall have been cleared by me, and I should be able to let them escape to the gate without any problems."

"There are my people waiting outside the door to answer, hurry up, Lordaeron's two armies have already been dispatched."

Haas and Alex looked at each other, and both of them stared at each other.

"Another ......"

Valera glanced at Alex, who didn't know what was going on at home.

"Mr. Barov, please be prepared, there are some family matters that you need to take care of personally."

"Family matters?"

Alex had a bad premonition, and the corners of his mouth twitched and asked, "Could it be that my two restless sons have made trouble again?" ”

Valera shrugged, "I can't say a word, I'll know when you get back to Keldaron." ”

"Please take care of the family affairs as soon as possible, Yin Yeton needs the full support of the Barov family to secure the throne, and no one knows when Duke Facurrest will return from the front to deal with the situation in Icewind...... Well? ”

"Huh! I'm back! ”

Before this whispering sounded, Valilla sensed the danger first, and randomly found the shadow of a nobleman to launch a shadow walk, narrowly avoiding someone's sneak attack from behind.

The Alterac nobles, who had calmed down, suddenly stirred, and Alex hurried to reassure them, Haas drew a one-handed sword borrowed from the guards, and stared solemnly at the sturdy man who had set out to attack Valeera.

"Duke Facurrest, it's been a long time, and the rude and arrogant fat man from before is really just your stand-in."
