Menethil's Power

Chapter 220 Hatred and Suspicion

When the Royal Military Academy of Lordaeron was fully established and the Explorers' Association started to organize a new round of expeditions, the northern elf kingdom Quel'Thalas also experienced some changes.

At this time, six years have passed since the end of the Orc War, and Quel'Thalas has returned to its original tranquility, or a state of stagnant water, at an extremely fast speed.It is difficult to change the inherent pattern that has been maintained for thousands of years, and the orc invasion is far from breaking this deadlock. After all, most of the casualties are civilians. Silvermoon City, which is sheltered by the Sunwell, is almost intact.

Therefore, the structure of the upper elves has hardly changed. The Silvermoon Council still firmly holds most of the power in Quel'Thalas. Although the Sun King Astanarian has been trying his best to maintain the authority of the royal family, his Like a puppet.There are only two families that are really affected by the orc war, and one of them is the staunch royal party windrunner.

Windrunners have always played an important role in the military, so they were naturally not welcomed by the parliament. In the second war, because Alleria Windrunners did not lead a team to pursue the orcs when they broke the siege of Silvermoon City, but returned to Aiding Fengxing Village, it was considered a major dereliction of duty by the Silvermoon Council. They selectively forgot all of Alleria's previous achievements, deprived her of all positions, and only kept her sister Sylvanas' ranger. However, according to the newly revised regulations, the ranger general is no longer the commander of the highest force in Quel'Thalas, and can only command the basic ranger troops.

So far, even the military power that the Sunstrider royal family has never let go has gradually come under the control of the parliament. If there are no other external interference factors, Quel'Thalas may have entered a magical era of "bright cooking" and created a new civilization model.

But unfortunately, no matter in the original timeline or in this time and space that has deviated from the normal track due to the presence of Isaacs, the high elves do not seem to have such an opportunity.

Another one gradually sidelined by the orc wars is our loyal and unparalleled mage Dar'kan Drathil. Changing hands let the tenacious troll leader run away, making the Darkhan mage almost a joke.

This stain could not be washed away. The trolls and elves had a hatred that lasted for thousands of years, so the capture of Zul'jin, the leader of the trolls, was even a national celebration for Quel'Thalas.However, Dar'Khan, the idiot, let the deeply wounded Zul'jin escape under his nose, so that the high elves had no chance to enjoy this glory.

This kind of mistake is really too big, and what's even more ironic is that Dar'Khan still used a very ugly face to seize the control of Zul'jin from the Windrunner, and after the matter was revealed, he also tried to bribe Lor'themar Se Long's meritorious deeds atone for the crime.When all these were announced to the world by the victim's wind experts, Darkan's reputation plummeted, leaving a deep impression of cunning and incompetence in the hearts of ordinary people.

Public image is still very important at certain times. Of course, the Silvermoon Council is unwilling to accept the notorious Dar'Khan, and the old family behind him, Drasil, has also cut off its support for him—it's just that A politician plus a mage who barely reaches the hero level, this kind of character is a lot of people in the upper class of Quel'Thalas.

In this way, Dar'Khan, the political star who was once hot and powerful, was quickly and selectively forgotten by all the elves, and in the end he was not as good as the equally excluded Fengxing. For foreign aid, Fengxing Port's trade license has not been revoked.

Recalling the past few years, Darkan's face was livid, and he subconsciously crushed the glass in his hand. The sharp fragments pierced his palm, and blood and the same bright red wine dripped down his elbow. On the luxurious carpet, but he didn't notice it at all.

Darkan suddenly stood up and looked around him. This is the house he bought in his happiest days, with the top decorations in Quel'thas. There was no one outside him, and there was already a layer of dust on the majestic furniture. In just a few years, there was a decayed atmosphere here.

Darkan didn't care about this. Although he was in the upper class, it was just a play to achieve his goals. He had no interest in the extravagant life of the aristocrats. As a standard mage, what he really yearned for was powerful power And the power and status that come with it, for which he can give everything, whether it is morality, integrity, or soul.

This is why he used all means to improve his status. Everything was just a springboard. He really hoped to get close to the Sunwell, the home of the high elves. He was eager to bathe in that pure magical energy and mobilize its power wantonly. .

Originally, he was about to succeed. He had successfully gained the trust of the Sunwell guards and would soon become one of them.But now all this has come to naught, just because of that small mistake a few years ago.

Yes, Darkan only admitted that it was a small mistake. Although he really only treated the dirty troll as a dead person at that time, in fact, those two lawbreakers were in charge of guarding the troll, but the ignorant people of the world unexpectedly Putting all the crimes on his head really made Darkan very resentful. He knew very well that someone was instigating behind it, and the Windrunner family must be one of the masterminds. One side, but very happy to throw a punch.

Of course Darkan would not agree with this result. This extremely self-centered mage was very unwilling, and even developed a strong hatred for the Silvermoon Council and the entire high elf race. If he could sacrifice these stupid compatriots to gain huge If he had strength, he would definitely do so without hesitation.

However, at this time, there is no Scourge Legion outside Silvermoon City for him to serve. As for traveling thousands of miles to Alterac to find the remnants of the orcs and then join the orc tribe, it is extremely stupid. Oman jungle.

It seemed he had to go there.

Dar'Khan knew very well that trolls had strong self-healing and fertility abilities. The defeat in that war did not hurt their vitality, and the trolls in Zul'Aman still maintained a considerable number.Of course, these ordinary combat powers would not pose a threat to a hero-level mage. What Darkan really wanted to find was Zul'jin.

He knew very well how badly the troll had been injured, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to return to normal state, which also meant that Dar'Khan might kill him.The best way to wash away the shame is the blood of the enemy. When he returns with Zul'jin's head, Silvermoon City will definitely welcome him several times warmer than before.

Of course, this only happened when Zul'jin was found to be extremely weak. The more likely situation should be that Dar'Khan secretly gave the trolls inside information about the elves, thus triggering a new war between trolls and elves. In the war, no matter whether it is the troll side or the elf side that wins, Darkan is confident that he will gain his own benefits from it.

This was a blatant act of betrayal, but Darkan didn't think there was anything wrong with it, after all, in his conception, he was willing to give everything, and the only thing he wanted was strength.

……

Quel'Thalas seemed to be raging again, but Isaacs, who was far away in the royal city of Lordaeron, didn't notice it, and he didn't know that guy Bryan had started a new expedition on his own initiative—although he He is a shareholder of the Explorers' Association, but he does not have a master-slave relationship with Brian. In principle, he cannot intervene in the specific affairs of the association, and Brian does not have to report everything to him.

Of course, in terms of personal relationship, the relationship between the two is quite good, but this actually makes Brian strengthen the secrecy measures. After all, whether it is the ruins of Tyr or the War Destroyer, they are of vital significance to human beings. So Brian wanted to prepare a "surprise" for Isaacs.

This "surprise" will inevitably achieve the expected effect, but it is not known what kind of surprise it is.

Students from all over Lordaeron finally settled down on Academy Island, and the Royal Military Academy officially started operation. This institution supported by the whole country of Lordaeron brought together a large number of professionals as instructors, from politics to military affairs, and then to Everything from combat skills to knowledge of the Olympiad is included.

Isaacs even encouraged the little pastor to come to the college to be a lecturer of holy optics with a shy face. The clever little pastor saw this guy's intentions at a glance. He would never allow those old stubborn people in the church to shape the beliefs of these outstanding students. Conceptual, but paladins like Baldrige and Reinhardt do not have enough knowledge to be lecturers, so if the little priest does not help, Isaacs can only teach this course himself.

How can there be such a good thing, you will only think of me when you encounter trouble, the little pastor thought angrily.

However, after only half an hour of hard work by Isaacs, Paltrace softened her heart and agreed to the rascal's request, so he happily kissed her forehead and received "My Paltrace is the most sensible." "Praise.

Watching Isaacs go away, the little pastor sighed softly, as always, no matter how she told herself in her mind, she still couldn't refuse his request.

But my dear prince, can you feel my heartfelt voice?
Isaacs seems to be ignorant of this, or rather, he appears to be ignorant on purpose.After the initial appearance and speech, he had no other work at the Royal Military Academy for the time being, so he returned to Wangcheng.

As for the work of uniting these young people and convincing the second generation of saints like Renault and Whitemane, I will leave it to Alsace. After all, this is the original purpose of the little prince's admission. He is in a different age group, but regardless of his strength, status, wisdom and experience, he has reached another level, and it is difficult to integrate into his peers.

First, I went to the underground fight club and brought back Thrall, who had been fighting almost non-stop for a week. The young orc was covered with new wounds and old scars all over his body. He looked very tired but already had an air of bravery.

"In the past week, Thrall has experienced a total of 63 wrestling fights, and the victory has been maintained at around 50.00%. He has brought at least [-] gold coins to the club." After emerging as the "new owner", he immediately became extremely obedient, and he was extremely at ease with the role of "dogleg". This job is obviously better than working alone. The cleaning process can be completely omitted.

"Twenty thousand gold coins? I didn't see it, my Thrall turned out to be a cash cow." Isaacs sighed, and it could be regarded as praising Thrall, "Give him an extra chicken for every meal in the future." He said to Wowba.

Thrall's eyes lit up immediately. He was just growing up and had a heartfelt desire for meat, so this reward was quite affordable for him.

Isaacs returned to the palace and handed Sal to Teresa. Taking Sal back once a week was the limit of Teresa's tolerance, and every time she saw Sal covered in bruises, the little girl looked at Isaacs A little more resentment and incomprehension.

Naturally, Isaacs would not explain to her why he was gentle with others, but treated them like the worst slave master. Since this role-playing game was his own choice, it must continue. What he needed was not a skilled Gladiator or obedient slave, what he needs is a rational warchief who can integrate the orcs and make them identify with the world and be willing to fight bloody for the world.

Onyxia has been sent to the bottom of the Academy Island, the Arcatraz Prison, which was built in imitation of the Dalaran Prison. Apart from Onyxia, other rare creatures with research value are also imprisoned.Although at the beginning I wanted to build a separate residence for the black dragon princess, but it still seemed unsafe. After all, no matter how much I guard against a cunning black dragon, Isaacs remained firm regardless of the black dragon princess' pleadings and various promises. sent her in.

Without the black dragon princess acting as a demon, the palace was immediately much cleaner, allowing Isaacs to concentrate on facing a very embarrassing issue—his marriage contract.

Arranged political marriages are the norm in the royal families of various countries, and are widely regarded as political bargaining chips, so that the kings are more or less related to each other, but it is estimated that no one will enjoy the treatment of Isaacs. The woman is Crowley, who is rich and powerful Not to mention the daughter of the family, the one who was engaged to him was the top existence in Azeroth-Nesharion, Deathwing.

This marriage contract was determined as Lordaeron's guarantee of support for the Crowley family. As the relationship between the Crowley family and the Gilnean royal family deteriorated, they became more and more uneasy, so they desperately hoped that Lordaeron could Fulfill everything that was previously promised.

So Isaacs was embarrassed.
