Menethil's Power

Chapter 395 Payday

After lunch with Terenas, Isaacs and Callia chatted with the old king for a while before being sent off to visit their mother.

Queen Leanne has always been gentle and kind. As a queen, she has no interest in her husband's political affairs, but is willing to participate in church affairs.The queen expressed great joy at the arrival of Isaacs and Callia.

Terenas didn't tell her about the changes in Kalia. In Leanne's eyes, her daughter was still the cute and somewhat coquettish little princess, and when facing her mother, Kalia also showed a rare hair loss. A gentle smile from the heart.

It had been a long time since she had shown such emotions.

The corner of Isaacs' mouth raised a slight arc, and he shook his head slightly, giving up the space to the mother and daughter.He quietly retreated and prepared to return to his room.

His residence became an independent palace after he became an adult. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Teresa, a little maid in a maid outfit, leaning against Isaacs' bookshelf, reading a book of theology intently. Books, judging from her practiced posture, was how she passed the time when Isaacs was not at the palace.

Isaacs cleared his cough, and Teresa noticed his arrival. She suddenly put down the book in her hand, looking a little panicked, "Your Highness, I..."

Isaacs signaled her not to be nervous, most of the books on the surface were recreational reading, and it was impossible to put important materials on conspicuous bookshelves.

But Teresa still seemed a little guilty and uneasy. After all, Isaacs had never been very friendly to her before, and never said that she was allowed to read these books.

"Teresa, how long have you been here?" Isaacs asked suddenly.

"Almost nine years, Your Highness." Teresa said cautiously.

"Nine years." Isaacs seemed to sigh, and he suddenly began to carefully look at the girl in front of him. Nine years have passed, and Teresa has become a pretty girl. Her appearance is not stunning, but There is also cuteness, Isaacs is very clear that appearance is actually secondary, the girl in front of him has a very beautiful heart.

At the beginning, he thought he had figured out the idea of ​​the bronze dragon, so he tried to replace Blackmoore with himself, and adopted Thrall and Teresa.It is not Isaacs' bad taste to use this poor little girl as a maid. He is just trying to ensure that Teresa and Sal's growth is always under his control.

But now, with the death of Nozdormu, there is no need for Isaacs to deceive himself and maintain a plausible history, but since Thrall, the son of the tribe, has been released, Isaacs must find a way to impose certain pressure on him. influence and control, and Teresa is obviously a very important means.

But that does not mean that she needs to be his maid again, the prince's maid is still a servant class, not to mention that Isaacs is not in the palace for half a year.

Teresa was a little hairy when Isaacs looked at her, and she suddenly had a very bad association.

"It's not suitable for you to continue to serve me now." Isaacs's words were beyond Teresa's expectations. "I want to transfer you to the queen's side to become a court lady. What do you want?"

His Highness, who has always been strict and unkind, suddenly thought of himself, which surprised Teresa for a moment, "You don't want me anymore?" She asked subconsciously. Over the years, she had subconsciously regarded Isaacs as a Owner.

For some reason, she felt a little lost in her heart, like a small animal that was about to be thrown away.

"I really don't need others to serve me now," Isaacs said, "If you don't want to, I can also let you out of the palace and introduce you to a suitable husband. I think little Barnir is very suitable..."

He didn't need to say much at all, Teresa obviously wouldn't choose the second option, "I'd better serve Her Majesty the Queen."

she said hastily.

"It's a pity." Isaacs looked regretful, "Little Barnir can be said to have a bright future, and he will soon inherit his father's position as royal groom..."

"I... have no idea of ​​getting married yet." Teresa looked a little embarrassed. She didn't mean that Barnir was not good enough for her, but she didn't like the feeling of being arranged by fate.

She curtseyed to Isaacs. "When can I see Her Majesty?" she asked.

"Go to the palace steward and tell me directly."

Teresa ran away like a deer, as if afraid that Isaacs would assign her a husband again.

Isaacs shook his head slightly. It was just a trivial matter for him to make such a decision concerning Teresa's fate, and his attention would not be focused on a trivial matter for a long time.He took down a few books in the middle of the bookshelf, revealing a palm-sized rune circle, then took out a small arcane crystal, and embedded it directly in the circle.

There was an inaudible sound, and the stone slab on the ground cracked suddenly, revealing a dark passage, and the end of this passage was the dungeon of Lordaeron.

The royal city has an extremely large underground building system, and almost all the residences of Menethil's royal family members have similar institutions, which are used for emergency refuge in times of crisis.

But Isaacs used this mechanism for another purpose. He went down the tunnel and entered a secret room.

This secret room in the dungeon is almost the command center of Isaacs. Many important plans are carried out here, and only the most trustworthy subordinates will know this place.

Although he hadn't been here for three months, the secret room was still spotless. Someone had obviously cleaned it. Isaacs went straight to the map of Azeroth hanging on the wall, lost in thought.

He played with the Burning Legion in the timeline of the War of the Ancients, but the parallel time and space did not affect each other, and the demon in his own time and space did not suffer that kind of huge damage.

However, the Battle of Quel'Thalas did give the Burning Legion a great setback. It can be predicted that the demons will die down in the future, so the remaining enemies of Azeroth are the ancient gods, Deathwing and... the natural disaster .

Isaacs' eyes fell on the upper half of the map, the snow-covered land, Northrend.

Regardless of the Old Gods or Deathwing, if they didn't jump out by themselves, it would be very difficult to find trouble with them, but natural disasters are different. Isaacs knows the location of Ner'zhul the Lich King very well, and at this time the old orc's The soul is sealed in the Frozen Throne, and there is nowhere to escape.

During the Battle of Quel'Thalas, although Isaacs had the foresight to plant Lordaeron, it only protected most of the land of Lordaeron, and the natural disasters and plagues were still raging in other places. It took countless lives.

The Scourge Legion was created by the Burning Legion to weaken the vitality of Azeroth. The combination of undead and demons can indeed bring about serious disasters, but now that the Burning Legion has been repelled, it is time to eliminate the Scourge best time.

It's time for the Northern Expedition. As long as Azerite weapons are installed on a large scale, then Lordaeron alone will be enough to compete with the Scourge.

Isaacs was contemplating, and suddenly his body became illusory and entered a stagnant state. Almost at the same time, a black figure suddenly appeared and passed through him. The attacker obviously did not expect Isaacs to disappear suddenly, so his figure changed. A moment of stagnation.

Isaacs immediately recovered his body, and put his arms around the attacker's slender waist, "Your way of greeting is really unique." He said helplessly.

The stalker who can appear here, who else could it be besides Valeera?
The elf female thief didn't have any idea of ​​breaking free, in fact she seemed to be caught on purpose.Isaacs only felt his tender body suddenly slip into his arms, and then a pair of fiery red lips kissed him.

……

Valeera was still lazily sitting on Isaacs' lap.

"Where have you been all this time, my lord?"

Without any hesitation, Isaacs told about his experience in the War of the Ancients, but he did not mention his identity as a space-time traveler and the secrets about the split timeline, which he neither told Squall nor Ty Renas, but to Valeera he can safely confess most of his secrets.

"You actually seized Azeroth in another parallel time and space?" Valeera's blue eyes suddenly burst into light.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with Isaacs' actions, on the contrary, she admired his unscrupulous style.

"Look at me." In front of the woman he was close to, Isaacs also rarely showed a trace of complacency. He patted the female elf lightly, "I'm done talking, now it's your turn."

"That's right, you have to report to work after paying your salary. You are really business-like." Valeera said with pretended resentment.

Isaacs couldn't laugh or cry.

Valeera stood up from Isaacs' embrace. She had no intention of getting dressed, so she showed her seductive body to Isaacs, "The ghost and the Uncrowned have a lot of work, you should ask me."

"Alright." Isaacs nodded. "Have you found Jaina?" he asked.

The princess of Kul Tiras suffered many undeserved painful experiences and finally disappeared. Isaacs is almost sure that this series of events is related to the natural disasters, but why did Ner'zhul target Jaina?You must know that Jaina can never be a substitute for Arthas, and her corruption can only affect Kul Tiras and Dalaran, but Kul Tiras is far away from the mainland, and it is almost meaningless for natural disasters to occupy there. And Dalaran is not something that Jaina alone can shake. The defense of the city of mages is much stronger than that of the royal city of Lordaeron.

These doubts cannot be resolved for the time being, so the only option is to speed up the Northern Expedition.

"There is no effective news, and it is too difficult to find out the news in Northrend." Valeera replied.

"And what about Galin?" Isaacs asked again.

Garin, the prince of Stromgarde, is almost a copycat version of Alsace in the original history. He killed his father, but he couldn't break through Lordaeron's defense line at all. After his undead army was defeated, he himself didn't know tracked.

The harm that Garin himself can cause is limited, but Isaacs believes that only by finding him can he discover the hidden stronghold of the Cult of the Cursed God, which is the key.

"The undead is very cautious, but we have already found his trace in the wetland and are tracking it with all our strength."

Isaacs nodded, it is good news if he finds out.

"Oh, yes, I just got this." Valeera said casually suddenly, a pair of purple-black daggers suddenly appeared in her hand.

Isaacs was just about to ask where the female elf took out these two weapons, after all, she didn't have any clothes at this time, but his attention was quickly attracted by the dagger itself.The substantial dark purple power flowed on the blade of the dagger, and Isaacs felt an extreme cold killing intent from it.

"This is..." Isaacs paled.

"Kingslayer, the weapon that killed King Ryan." Valeera said lightly.

"But doesn't it belong to Garona?"

"Are you talking about that half-orc? She has been hiding in the Assassin's League. I found her, defeated her, and obtained the right to use this pair of daggers."

Having said that, Valeera still recalled the scene a month ago in her mind. She found Garona through the news inside the Assassin League, and challenged her, but the result was not satisfactory, she had no real meaning Go to earth and defeat the female half-orc.

Garona is an excellent stalker, but she seems to have no intention of fighting. When Valeera gritted her teeth and created a desperate situation, she gave up.

"I admit defeat," she said bluntly, "The pair of daggers belong to you. They are too evil and will even lead users to submit to their will. If the guy who made these daggers hadn't died very early, I buried these daggers forever, there are too many innocents under their blades, please use their power with caution."

Valeera didn't take the dagger immediately, "You are no longer a pure assassin, your heart has softened, and you are afraid of death." She said coldly to the half-orc.

Garona was silent for a while, "Yes, I am a mother now." She smiled slightly, "Aren't you the same? You want this pair of daggers to protect someone, right?"

Just recalling it, Valeera lost her mind for a moment.

Isaacs didn't notice the female elf's condition, "Don't let Varian know about these daggers." He said casually, and then suddenly thought of something, "Wait a minute, Garona can successfully assassinate Stormwind City The King of the Rhine, no matter what, it is impossible to be an ordinary hero, that is to say..."

"That's right." Valeera came back to her senses, "I am now the second epic master assassin in the League of Assassins."

This was a surprise. Isaacs had to marvel at the talent of the elf. He was happy for her from the bottom of his heart. He stood up and wanted to embrace the elf again.

However, Valeera avoided it deftly, "I'm not interested in you now, my lord." She smiled sweetly at Isaacs.Then she began to put on the leather armor again, and it seemed that she was deliberately teasing Isaacs. Her movements were extremely slow, and the beautiful scenery disappeared piece by piece.
