Cortec also knew that he was not in the right position, and as long as Sulsis, the undisputed Sétaris Divine Scroller, did not die for a day, no matter how much he shouted, the snake people would not recognize the legitimacy of his so-called "Emperor".

What worries Cortec the most is not that Sulsis is not dead, but that someone of unknown origin has come to the aid of the devout.

Judging from the fact that the other party easily wiped out the assassination force of up to hundreds of people, this person who meddled from nowhere was by no means a good one.

But now, it's ready to be sent.

Even if there was no peace in his heart, Cortec could only rebel according to the original plan.

In his words, this is to set the snake people on a new future, where they can no longer be attached to the long-dead Sétaris and build a snake empire on their own that can stand up to the trolls of Zandalara.

As Cortec anxiously pondered his next steps, the one who remained in the Temple of the Devout brought him an update.

Although Sulsis did not die, he was mortally wounded in the ambush, and a dark-haired foreign woman happened to pass by and rescued him.

According to Neiying's observations, Sursis's injuries must not be cured, and death is only a matter of time.

It's a pity that Cortek's inner should not live long enough to send a second, more important piece of information.

While Warwick was busy preparing for war and pacifying people, Onexia's bystanders kept an eye on the movements inside and outside the Temple of the Pious.

As soon as he was about to deliver the letter again, he was caught by Onexia, who had been paying attention to it.

"Play spy with me? You're still too tender. ”

For the time being, Salian remained in the ashram to continue caring for Sursis, who had just escaped from danger.

Considering the state of panic in the Temple of the Devout, the experienced Onexia predicted that there would definitely be spies for the Unbelievers in the Temple.

Sure enough, it didn't surprise the Black Dragon Princess, the highest-ranking old spy.

The spy was thrown in front of Warwick and attempted to kill himself by poisoning, but was unable to do so under the watchful eye of the guarded Onexia.

The corners of Warwick's mouth twitched a little as he looked at the untrustworthy spy in front of him, his body movements and demeanor completely matched.

Warwick could tell that the spy was already determined to die, but unfortunately, he couldn't control his body at the moment, and was still dumbly tap-dancing in place.

"Your Royal Highness the Black Dragon Princess, this is your ......"

"That's right."

Onexia, who wields the power of shadows, plays with the blade of the Dark Empire in her hand with a smile.

"If you have anything to ask, just hurry up, this guy's soul resistance is very strong, and it won't be able to break free of control, but he will burn his brain after 10 minutes at most due to excessive resistance."

“…… Although it doesn't mean much to us, it's a big deal to ask Sarian to come over and put a spiritism and continue to torture. ”

Warwick smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Of course, it's best to be able to ask the living, I've also heard of spiritism, if the spiritual confrontation is too fierce before death, it seems to affect the integrity of the soul, right?" ”

Onexia shrugged: "That's why I asked you as soon as possible, don't waste time, hurry up and ask." ”

……

The spy maintained a desperate and angry expression the whole time, his body was completely out of the control of his brain, and he revealed all the information he knew.

Knowing that Cortec had received the news that Sulsis was seriously injured and dying, Warwick was not angry, but instead put his chin on his hand and showed a thoughtful expression.

'Huh~ No outstanding talents? You're too modest, aren't you? ’

The scheming Onexia could see what Warwick was thinking, which was nothing more than what Sarren said about repairing the plank road openly and secretly Chen Cang, using the wrong information to mislead Cortek, and strive to complete the battle with all his might.

Now that Warwick has a plan, Onyxia, as an outsider, is also happy to be idle and does not say anything to hint at him.

Cortec must have sent more than one spy to infiltrate the Pious, but none of the others had the high status of this one, and had access to important information about Warwick's tight lockdown.

But...... In fact, it was still not high enough, at least he didn't know what Onexia's body was, and dug a sinkhole for his own "Emperor" that would never be filled.

After taking care of the spy, Warwick announced in public that Sulsis's injuries had stabilized and that he would be able to regain consciousness early tomorrow morning, but it would take about 2 months to recover.

This timely good news finally swept away the uneasiness and anxiety inside and outside the temple, and after learning that Sulsis's injuries were not serious, the people spontaneously dismissed the previously spread news as fake news, and Cortek's public opinion war failed to bear fruit.

As Sarjan had expected, the devout were furious at Cortek's murderous assassination of the venerable Sulsis.

The soldiers on the front line were high morale to block the first wave of attacks of the Faithless Legion, and the snake people in the rear were also full of enthusiasm to provide sufficient logistics supplies for the front-line troops.

"Sure enough." Onexia said with a slight sneer: "Using external strife to divert internal contradictions is a classic routine that will never go out of style, you see, isn't the target of Cortec perfectly erected?" ”

Through Onexia's quiet investigation, Sarean learns more about the snake people.

Although Warwick and Sulsis share the same political views in the general direction, there is still a lot of friction in many details.

After Sulsis was seriously injured, the Temple of the Devout, under the deliberate guidance of the untrustworthy spies, was suspected to be directed and acted by Warwick at one point.

As the truth was revealed, a large number of spies whose identities were exposed by their superiors were caught, and public opinion in the Temple of the Pious took a 180-degree turn.

"Don't be too happy."

At the urging of the snake healers, Salian and them completed the shift change, and climbed to the top of the temple with Onexia, looking out over the serpentine canyon in the distance.

Sarian said meaningfully: "Once the front line cannot open the situation, Cortek, a careerist, will most likely choose to take a desperate risk. ”

Onexia raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked knowingly, "You mean, he will gather the remaining forces to storm the pyramid of Atu-Aman?" ”

"Yes."

Salian was not carried away by the momentary victory, and still calmly analyzed: "At the moment when Sétaris has not yet been resurrected, once Misrax is resurrected, it will undoubtedly be a dimensionality reduction blow to the devout who lack top-level combat power. ”

"Huh~" Onexia sneered and complained, "Cortek, that guy is so confident that Mithrax will listen to him?" ”

"Not self-confidence." A cold glint flashed in Sarren's eyes: "He has long been mentally prepared to completely turn to Gohorn once the war does not go well, so as to get the help of Mithrax." ”

"Otherwise, why does he think that the Snake People can be on an equal footing with the profound Zandalar Empire under his leadership?"

Onexia shook her head and commented, "It's not enough to seek skin with a tiger. ”

"Alright." Sarjan smiled disapprovingly, "This kind of careerist who can't recognize his own abilities is everywhere in Azeroth, and he is not a bad one. ”

"Warwick is not a fake trick that is not practiced, with the intelligence support we provide, it is not so easy for Cortech to jump off the wall in a hurry."

"This trip to Zandalar has been delayed for a long time, and when the civil war situation of the Serpents is basically clear, Laiden should be able to recover from his injuries, and we should be able to transfer to Northrend to make final preparations for the upcoming big game."

……

There was a joke in the barrage that made Sarren find it funny.

[I'm waiting for a skill CD, what are you waiting for?] 】

Thoughtful Loken overestimated the number of Winterhug Lake Titan creations, and also overestimated the high-end combat power that Sarian had in his hands at that time.

Lorcan thought that all of this was planned by Laidun, and it was a premeditated calculation.

For this reason, the insecure Loken can only continue to hoard troops like a hamster with a shrunken head, hysterically throwing a large amount of mineral resources into the creator's engine.

Lorcan's stressful response made Salian cry and laugh.

If he had taken the initiative to attack with his army from the beginning, it would have been impossible to win with the combat power that Dong Yonghu had hoarded at that time, at most he could only maintain the balance of power, and the probability of defeat would be greater.

As time passed, Torrim and Azadas led their respective armies to Winterhug Lake for reinforcements, and at this time Winterhug Lake had the ability to compete with Lorcan's Iron Army.

Limited by access to mineral resources, the growth rate of Loken's steel army has slowed significantly, and the Naraksha Engine, which is backed by most of Azeroth's logistics, is still going on a rampage.

In other words, the longer the time drags on, the lower the chances of Loken succeeding in holding Ulduar, and he is losing his advantage.

Standing at the top of the temple, Sarren looked in the direction of Northrend in the north with a smile: "Lorcan, I'm waiting for reinforcements, what are you waiting for?" ”
