Menethil's Power

Chapter 227

The human nations in Azeroth, dominated by Lordaeron, are essentially feudal countries. The king, as the highest ruling class, has the supreme power of life and death. Although Isaacs is kind and approachable most of the time, he does not represent He would have completely shelved that right.

For example, now, with just one word from him, the whole Barov family has to go to Zul'Aman to open up wasteland. The crown prince is the second most noble person in the kingdom, especially for a family with a small population like Menethil. Isaacs will do nothing. The probability of succeeding to the throne in the future can be said to be almost [-]%, so the mayor of Haberian will naturally not question the reliability of his words.

But the execution of this order is obviously not so easy, "I am willing to help, Your Highness, but there are still a considerable number of guards on Caer Darrow Island, which cannot be dealt with by Andorhal's guards." There is embarrassment.

Andorhal is not a military fortress, it only has a guard of less than 500 people stationed. It is no problem for these people to be responsible for the peace and order, but as a military deterrent, it is obviously not enough for the Barov family to catch them without a fight. After all, centipedes are not dead. Stiff, this family was richer than the royal family of Alterac a few years ago, even if they were punished one after another, their family fortune was far superior to that of ordinary nobles.

Naturally, Isaacs will not fail to consider this issue, "I will send a battalion of elite soldiers and a squadron of Silver Hand Knights to help, and after expulsing the Barov family, they will be on the island of Caer Darrow Building a military garrison on top of it, I think Barov Castle would be a very good fortress."

Although Haberion felt that the military value of Caer Dallon did not seem to be worth stationing such a heavy army, after all, it was just an isolated island in Lake Dalomere, but he would naturally not care about such insignificant matters. Questioning a crown prince, he immediately agreed with his right hand on his chest: "As you wish, Your Highness, I will expel them as soon as possible."

Isaacs nodded slightly. Having been in a high position for so many years, he has become accustomed to entrusting some unimportant things to others instead of doing it himself. Since there are no outstanding figures in the Barov family, then There is no need to say that he needs to go there in person.

All he needs is that Keir Darrow Island is under the control of Lordaeron, and it will no longer become a sanctuary for some dark forces. Danlun's resentment grew stronger, and he didn't care about it at all.

"That's about it. Next, I have to do some things in Andorhal myself, so I won't disturb your work anymore." Isaacs said again.

"Then your safety..."

"What?" Isaacs smiled slightly, "Could it be that Andorhal's guards are strong enough to protect the safety of a heroic paladin?"

It was only then that Haberian remembered that this Highness in front of him was not as harmless as he looked on the outside. Unlike most noble children who had never personally taken risks, this one's military exploits were already enough to be recorded in the annals of history. "I see," he said.

Snow Wing, who had already had a full meal, was brought over again, Isaacs rode on its back, and the big white bird ran up and took off.It is not uncommon in Lordaeron to pass news through Griffon Knights, so the white Griffins flying in and out of the town hall did not cause too much exclamation except for a few innocent children. Big attention.

The raven transformed by Elsie has been standing on Isaacs' shoulders, watching Isaacs give orders to a group of officials. She seems to think that Isaacs' shoulders are a very comfortable position. Standing firmly on it, she regained her night elf form again when Isaacs let the griffin land on top of the steeple of Andorhal's cathedral.

"It's really a backward class system," the night elf commented on Isaacs' discussion with the mayor of Andorhal just now: "He knows almost nothing about you, but he only bows to you because of your so-called 'noble status' , the political system of mankind is indeed backward.”

"Is the political system of the night elves very advanced?" Isaacs asked casually.

"Of course." Elsie took it for granted, "We eliminated the backward dictatorship as early as ten thousand years ago." She raised her smooth and slender chin, fully expressing that she is an ancient civilized race sense of superiority.

Isaacs thinks it makes sense, but is the half-parliamentary and half-religious system of the night elves really advanced?He rationally did not continue this meaningless topic. "This is the highest point of Andorhal. We can see the whole city. Where do you think it is more suitable to plant Rodrassil?" he asked.

"Isn't it good to be here?" Elsie gave an unexpected answer.

Isaacs was taken aback, but then shook his head, "Building the city on the World Tree like Darnassus? It's too unrealistic. Without the efforts of the Cenarion Council to cultivate it, Lordassil would at least have to It takes a few centuries to grow to the point where it can support a city, which is too long for mortals, and it is very unrealistic to demolish the entire Andorhal."

"That's up to you to decide. Since you have promised to give you the world branch, you can completely decide the location." Elsie said indifferently, and the elf's attention quickly shifted to the one mentioned in Isaacs' words. An unfamiliar vocabulary, "Darnassus? A city on the World Tree? Why have I never heard of it?"

Only then did Isaacs remember that the planting of Teldrassil was after the third war, and it was only a few years after the second war, and Teldrassil didn't even have saplings, let alone Darnassus Yes, I seem to have made an inadvertent prophecy.However, Isaacs didn't feel flustered, he didn't change his face, and immediately made a remedy.

"I saw it in an ancient book in the Royal Library. If you haven't heard of it, it must have been fabricated by an anthropologist in the past." He gave an explanation lightly.

"That anthropologist seems to know us very well. Even if it is fabricated, the name 'Darnassus' is very in line with the naming style of the night elves." Elsie said as if talking to herself.

Isaacs responded casually, looked around, and his mind was already elsewhere. The location of the World Tree is a very important matter, and its effectiveness must be maximized. His gaze shifted from the mountain wall of the Hinterlands to the safe The land on the outskirts of Dohal was transferred to the shore of Lake Drenmeer, and finally locked in the center of the lake.

Kaer Darrow again.

Isaacs suddenly felt that this was really the most wonderful location. Caer Darrow should not be a military fortress. It can obviously have a greater role. Originally, the Cursed Sect chose this place as its core base not just because it was secret enough. Lake Dalomere, where this island is located, is the key. The area of ​​Lake Dalomere is smaller than Lordaeron, but it is the most important lake in Lordaeron, connecting dozens of rivers, large and small, and these Rivers water the entire eastern region of Lordaeron.

Because of the large forest, the Tirisfal woodland is not suitable for reclaiming a large amount of farmland, so the eastern region has more cultivated land and population than the western region. If Lordassil is planted in Kaer Darrow, it The power of life and purification will inevitably bless half of Lordaeron with the flow of water, which will not only optimize the land, but also more effectively fight against natural disasters and plagues.

On the other hand, if Lordaeron is corroded by the nightmare in the future, then the lake of Darren Mill will be a natural barrier against corrosion, which can give Lordaeron a precious period of time to react.

Isaacs's eyes suddenly lit up with a warm light, and he felt more and more that this idea was extremely brilliant, it was simply the perfect choice, this kind of extremely excited eyes made Elsie on the side very surprised, "What's wrong with you?" She asked in surprise.

Isaacs didn't reply, and his breathing even became a little short. He felt more and more that the Barov family was in the way, occupying this treasure land but doing nothing, and they had to get out of here to cool off as soon as possible.

He turned around abruptly, and grabbed the night elf's fragrant shoulders without hesitation, "Listen, Elsie, I'll take a step first, the world tree is planted in Caer Darrow, which is the largest island in the lake Afterwards, a young red-haired mage will meet you with enough arcane crystals and kaya ore, his name is Ronin, and he will be responsible for the affairs that Lordassil will take over on my behalf."

Luo Ning is currently working as a teaching assistant at the Royal Military Academy with Squall, and his job is very easy, but since he has been assigned such a task, it is conceivable that his leisure time is coming to an end.

Elsie blinked, a little dazed, not understanding that this human being suddenly became so irritable, and Isaacs didn't intend to say it a second time, he rode directly on Snow Wing and left, leaving the still somewhat inexplicable Al Xi lost here.

Seeing the distant figure of the snow-colored griffin, Elsie shrugged helplessly and turned into a raven. The lavender figure also gradually disappeared into the sky in the opposite direction.

Isaacs really planned to recruit at least one battalion of soldiers to "help" Barov move the territory. Naturally, these people were recruited from Hearthglen, which is the closest to Andorhal. This fortress is located in the north of Andorhal. After that, it was managed by the high lord Tirion Fordring.

Hearthglen was peaceful, and Isaacs soon saw the old man who had been a comrade in the war. Tirion looked the same as he did six years ago, even a little fatter. It was very moist.

Although he didn't quite understand how the hapless Barov family had offended His Royal Highness, so that he was so anxious to ask them to leave, Tirion still readily accepted Isaacs' order.

"Rodir is one of my best officers. He and his subordinates will rush to Andorhal as quickly as possible to assist Mayor Harberion." Tirion assured Isaacs.

The young prince nodded in satisfaction. After the most important thing was settled, he began to routinely inquire about the situation in Hearthglen. When asked if there were escaped orc prisoners around Hearthglen, Tirion gave a Some strange answers:

"I promise on my honor that there are no threatening orc fugitives around Hearthglen."

Isaacs' expression moved slightly. He keenly noticed that Tirion had added a prefix like "threatening" before the word 'orc'. Paladins can't lie. Obviously, this answer has a lot to say.

Tirion Fordring is one of the greatest paladins in the future. He had a dark experience between the Second War and the Third War, namely the "Blood and Glory" incident.Tirion met a reclusive old orc warrior during a hunting trip. During the battle between the two, Tirion had an accident, but the orc did not take advantage of the danger, but saved his life.

The sober Tirion learned about the past of the orcs and the old warrior's determination to retreat from the mouth of the old orc Eitrigg, which touched him a lot, and he began to think about the differences between orcs and humans. Lord Gu was at this stage, and he began to think rationally about the existence of orcs.

There are the noblest orcs and the humblest humans. Isaacs doesn't think there is anything wrong with this, and he doesn't want to interfere too much with this interesting matter, so he just reminded vaguely: "Tirion, I hope you are here When facing any situation, you must understand that you are first and foremost a soldier of the kingdom, but also a pious paladin."

It is controversial that Tirion helped the reclusive Eitrigg, but he was wrong to protect the old orc when the Knights of the Silver Hand tried to capture Eitrigg, which undoubtedly violated the Therefore, the Knights were judged and deprived of the authority of the Holy Light and exiled for life. It was not until the plague raged in Lordaeron for a long time that they finally regained their faith.

The exile of such a powerful paladin is undoubtedly a huge loss for Lordaeron, so Isaacs will remind him, but he doesn't want to remind too much. After all, every great figure has his own unique growth experience, and excessive intervention may make the He loses his greatness.

Seemingly understanding what Isaacs meant, Tirion's expression became serious, and he replied very formally: "I will keep it in mind, Your Highness."

Isaacs nodded slightly, and then saw Tirion's deputy, the ambitious and energetic paladin Barathus. In order to become the main figure in promoting Tirion's trial in the future, this guy is one of the few paladins Identity appeared as a villain, and the final ending was also very tragic, becoming a deformed ghoul wandering Stratholme.

Although Barathus is extremely enthusiastic towards His Royal Highness, and looks like he is trying his best to be loyal, Isaacs is still very indifferent and does not intend to treat him differently. This is an ambitious person, and the most indispensable thing in Lordaeron Just people with ambition.

The dinner was at Fording's house. Isaacs saw a harmonious and happy family. Mrs. Fording was virtuous and gentle, and Little Tailan was smart and lively-he was only seven years old, and he was not yet at the age of entering the Royal Military Academy. My favorite The toy is a shiny toy inflatable war hammer.

Since he didn't prepare a gift in advance, Isaacs rummaged through the package before finally finding a suitable one. He took out a strange box, and the golden texture instantly caught Tai Lan's attention.

"I think you should have heard of this." Isaacs smiled slightly, "Almost all Lordaeron children are playing Hearthstone..."
