Faced with an important task, Valeera did not express her request on the spot.
There was a mysterious smile on her face, like a fox that had stolen a chicken, delaying the completion of this "deal".
"Let's wait until the war subsides. Telling you the truth now will only disturb your mood and affect the upcoming investigation mission."
"Breathe~blow~"
Being forcibly whetted his appetite, Salayan had veins popping out on his forehead. He took several deep breaths to suppress his anger.
"Hmph! I want to see what kind of tricks you are playing."
As for his life experience, this problem has been bothering Sarlayan ever since he could remember.
Every time this topic was asked, Julian would talk about it in a haha manner.
Judging from what Valeera said, his life experience seemed unusual, and was even classified as secret information within the Backlight Blade.
Although they are very concerned about it, just like Valeera said, they must focus on their mission first.
Now Quel'Thalas is facing a crisis that has never happened in a thousand years.
Although many people in the barrage said that the Battle of Quel'Thalas would end in an anticlimax, but who can be sure that the situation will develop in the planned direction?
One of the comments mentioned a theory that concerned Sarlayan.
The Butterfly Effect.
Sarlayan was too lazy to think about those complicated principles.
To explain it in the simplest terms possible, everything he does as a person who was not mentioned in the original history may affect the future direction. Even a small change may affect the overall situation.
.
The future is changing all the time and is by no means static.
Even if the orcs led by Orgrim took the initiative to withdraw as the barrage said, if the traitor hidden in the upper echelons of Quel'Thalas is not eliminated for a day, the same crisis will inevitably happen again in the future.
It was Liras and Leleza who were supposed to be sacrificed in the second war. If the traitors take the opportunity to cause trouble next time, who will be the victim?
Julian Valeera?
Because he had suffered countless discrimination and insults from the high elves since he was a child, Sharlayan did not care about the survival of Quel'Thalas. He only cared about the people around him.
'Leresa... I hope it's not too late, otherwise Alleria will definitely be very sad.'
Lylas, Valeela and Sarlayan, these three people can be said to have played together since childhood and are very familiar with each other.
Julian once jokingly said that Valeela was his silly son's external thinking pendant.
This sentence is a joke, but not entirely a joke.
According to the internal evaluation of Backlight Blade, Valeera is not just a executor. She will put forward her own opinions on the current situation during tasks from time to time, and she is usually very to the point.
The contemporary ranger general Lileza is a senior legendary ranger, and is the best choice in terms of personal strength and commanding ability.
Even if they can't defeat the tribe's legendary heavenly group, with the ranger's strong mobility, escaping shouldn't be a problem.
So the question is, under what circumstances would Leleza be unable to even escape?
Valeela's answer was clear.
"When you are defenseless, you are surrounded by powerful enemies."
At this point in the discussion, the topic comes back again.
Why did Leleza, an extremely experienced ranger general, fall into an encirclement so easily?
The answer is already self-evident.
"Hiss~"
Valeela twitched the corner of her mouth and took a breath: "I don't know where you got the news about Lireza being in danger, but if the information is true..."
"The traitor who is hiding behind the scenes and collaborating with the enemy is probably planning a big deal."
The Bandinoril Barrier is the barrier that protects Quel'Thalas, and Leretha Windrunner, who leads the ranger troops, is the second insurance.
Although Sylvanas, the successor of Leresa, has also been promoted to legend, there is still a big gap between her and her mother in terms of experience and strength.
Once she loses the protection of Lireza, the pillar of strength, no one can guarantee whether the young Sylvanas can perfectly take over the burden left by her mother.
The humiliating experience of being invaded by invaders this time has shaken the people's trust in the Sunstrider royal family. If we lose the ranger general who has guarded Quel'Thalas for many years...
"Whoosh!"
Just as Valeela and Sarlayan were discussing the topic of the traitor with solemn expressions, two figures suddenly came out of the forest on the side of Sun Corona Village.
The first person to walk out was a silver-haired female ranger with an extremely delicate appearance. Lylas, who had left not long ago, followed her half a step behind.
Needless to say, this heroic female ranger is Vereesa, the third daughter of the Windrunner family.
Strangely enough, all members of the Windrunner family, including Lylas, have brilliant blond hair, except Vereesa's shoulder-length hair, which is silver.
Alleria mentioned in a funny way that when Vereesa was still very young, she once suspected that she was an adopted daughter who was picked up by her parents.
Facts have proved that her childish suspicion was wrong. This incident has been regarded by Vereesa as a piece of black history that she cannot bear to look back on. Whoever mentions it will be unlucky.
The members of the Windrunner family, with the exception of Lylas, who is a meek-tempered alien, are all fierce and resolute leaders.
Without any pleasantries, Vereesa simply nodded to Valeera and Sharlayan and immediately brought the topic to the point.
"Did you find something new about the Backlight Blade?"
Valeera's family has been living in the southern part of Eversong Forest. They are quite familiar with the Windrunner clan and have long understood their customary ways.
Valeera didn't waste time describing the cause and effect, and quickly straightened her expression and got into the mood.
"Although there is no concrete evidence to show the identity of the traitor, we have discovered a new meeting place between the traitor and the tribe based on the remaining clues."
"here."
Unfolding a roll of sheepskin map, Valeera's green-white index finger pointed at a mountain peak.
"Yanghen Peak, the ancient tomb of the Amani Troll."
…
The high elves have occupied the Eversong Forest for nearly 7,000 years.
Before that, this forest had always belonged to the forest trolls.
The place where Silvermoon City and the Sunwell are now was once a sacred place for forest trolls.
The Holy Land was taken away by invaders, and the Amani Trolls naturally would not sit idly by.
When Quel'Thalas was first founded, the forest trolls went crazy and launched an attack on Silvermoon City.
Since Dath'Remar, two generations of Sun Kings have died young due to years of war.
It wasn't until Anasteria, the great-grandson of Darthremar, came to power and formed an alliance with humans, and defeated the forest trolls supported by Zandalari, that Quel'Thalas finally ushered in a long period of peace.
But from the perspective of the residents in the southern part of Eversong Forest, the war has always been close to Quel'Thalas, and only the "noble" city dwellers far away in Silvermoon City can live and die without any scruples.
Although the forest trolls were defeated miserably in the decisive battle that year, the high elves and humans who also suffered heavy losses were unable to drive them all out.
The major forest troll clans that were once firmly united under the overlord Amani clan have long since fallen apart.
Zul'Aman, the capital of the forest trolls, is under the surveillance of rangers and farstriders all year round. Whenever there is the slightest sign of trouble, it will be hit by thunder.
Even so, the Amani trolls never stopped fighting.
The Ranger troops and the Amani trolls have been fighting a tug of war back and forth in front of Zul'Aman for more than two thousand years.
The weakened Amani trolls did not dare to think too much. Before forming an alliance with the tribe, their biggest goal was to recapture the ancient tombs that belonged to the Amani clan.
This tomb is located in the mountain of Yanghen Peak.
Sunmark Peak is the highest peak in Quel'Thalas, located between Tarquilin Town, Corona Village, Farstrider Camp and the Temple of the Sun.
For thousands of years, the Amani trolls have often secretly assigned thieves to sneak into Yanghen Peak, trying to recapture the tombs of their ancestors through internal and external cooperation.
Unknown to ordinary residents, the thieves of the Backlight Blade have thwarted Amani's plot countless times.
As the tribe's army passed through, Sun Temple, Taquelin and Sun Crown Village fell one after another, leaving only the Farstrider camp among the four layers of defense guarding Sunhen Peak.
Due to the overwhelming disadvantage in numbers, the travelers had too much time to take care of themselves, and the defense of Yanghen Peak was ineffective.
The Amani trolls finally got what they wanted and regained control of the ancient tomb.
Starting from the south of Ricorian Village, the group of four quickly arrived at the entrance to the south of Yanghen Peak, guided by Valeera.
A large number of heavily armed Amani trolls are guarding both sides of the road up the mountain. With just this four-person team, it will undoubtedly be very difficult to break through head-on, and may even alert the enemy.
It's better to come early than to come late.
When the four of them arrived at the foot of the southern foot of Yanghen Peak, a suspicious man wearing a full black robe was slowly climbing the mountain under the guidance of the Amani Troll.
"The information is correct, it is indeed here."
After discovering the target, Valeera, who was agile and agile, jumped up and down in the mountains to lead the way.
"Go this way."
It was obviously not the first time for Valeera to sneak into Yanghen Peak. She led the three of them through the mountain forest with ease and climbed up through a very rugged uninhabited mountain road.
Half an hour later, the four of them hurriedly and slowly arrived at the halfway point of Yanghen Peak, where the Amani Tomb was located.
Valeela suddenly lowered her posture and squatted on the ground, raising her fingers in front of her red lips, signaling everyone to be silent.
Intermittent voices came from one of the tombs and caves not far away.
