At this stage, Sarlayan still lacks sufficient understanding of the role of power, but as long as he is not passionate about fighting, he is not a stubborn person who cannot accept opinions.
Let professional people do professional things.
Sarlayan doesn't know much about power. He can ask some civil servants in politics in the barrage for advice.
With an entire world of thinkers at his back, Sarlayan could avoid as many pitfalls as possible while wielding power.
However, all of this must be considered after Kael'thas, who trusts Sharlayan more, officially takes over.
The old king of Anasteria is not said to be old and dim, but he cannot compare with the young and energetic Kael'thas in terms of determination and courage. The older he gets, the more he worries about gains and losses.
Prince Kael'thas is still sitting in Suramar, patiently waiting for Arkandor to mature.
By the time things in Draenor are over, Arcandor will have almost entered its final stage of growth. At that time, it will be a good time to go over and see the development of Suramar.
I don’t know how Talisa’s reforms are progressing, and whether Elisande has returned from her travels.
There is also the cooperation between Quel'Thalas and the Highmountain Tauren, whether the giant eagle introduction plan is going smoothly, and what stage has the Backlight Blade secretly learned the Paladin training method.
Looking back carefully, Sarlayan suddenly realized that he had unknowingly begun to step into the center of power in Quel'Thalas.
Through a series of events such as the Battle of Quicksand and the Battle of Suramar, his political stance and interests were gradually tied to Prince Kael'thas.
From a big-picture perspective, this is not a bad thing.
Kael'thas was also dissatisfied with the old and conservative status quo of Quel'Thalas, and wanted to create a more open and tolerant elven kingdom in the new era.
The old king, who was about to abdicate, began to pave the way for Kael'thas in advance. He would do all the things that offended people, in order to create a more superior succession environment for Kael'thas so that he would not start on the hell difficulty.
As long as Kael'thas still has the enterprising spirit, Sharlayan will stand with him and fully assist the prince who is about to ascend to the throne to straighten out the chaos at home and abroad.
It has been more than 7,000 years since the founding of Quel'Thalas. The high elves have long been accustomed to today's pace of life. Reforming Quel'Thalas cannot be completed in a year or two. Sarlayan is already prepared to fight for a long time.
preparation.
On the afternoon of the second day after Stellagosa and Valeera left, five people finally walked up the only road leading from Shadowmoon Valley to Talador Forest.
The red-robed high elf who was at the front and kept urging was none other than Sarlayan's old acquaintance, the youngest consort of the Red Dragon Queen—Corastrasz, commonly known as Krasus.
At this time, Krasus's face was full of helplessness, and the four problem children following him were chattering and looking around. No matter how much he urged, they remained unmoved.
'These people...'
Sarlayan subconsciously looked at the barrage, and sure enough, he got the answer he wanted.
[The female dwarf with silver hair and dumpling head should be the bronze dragon Cronom, we usually call her Chromie.]
[The shadow elf in the red dress...the robe must be the red dragon prince Kelestraz, or Karen for short.]
[It can be deduced from this that the green-haired night elf woman is probably the green dragon princess Merinthera, and the male dwarf is probably the blue dragon prince Alygos.]
[Uh~ Three are missing? Why is it that the bronze dragon came not from Prince Anachronos but from Chromie? 】
[Who knows, but I finally got to see Chromie, she’s so cute~]
[Loli? Take it out and it might be bigger than you.]
[Hot talk! Chromie can only be a female, and absolutely cannot be a hermaphrodite! Flor retreats! 】
Sarlayan: "?"
When I type this "?", it's not that I have a problem, but that I think you have a problem.jpg
"What the hell is a bisexual dragon? Is there such a thing?"
[It’s better you don’t know, it will teach bad things to children.]
[But just in case, if you have a chance, please help us ask Chromie privately whether she is a boy, a girl, or neither. 】
"Ah this..."
Sarlayan's eyes naturally fell on the very obvious female features of the little dwarf.
Even though Chromie is small, looking at the proportions, he is actually quite impressive.
"...In your world, do you call this a man?"
[Don’t ask, just ask and you’ll be reassured.]
【Grass!】
As expected, Sarlayan's weird and malicious eyes attracted Chromie's attention. The small female dwarf put one hand on her hips and raised her eyebrows, pointing at Sarlayan and scolding her without any stage fright.
"You kid over there! What are you looking at? Do you want me to turn you back into an oo egg?"
"Uh~"
The corners of Sarlayan's mouth twitched: 'So brave?'
[The flowing version, the iron-clad Chromie, do you think you are joking? 】
[A word of advice, don’t offend her, this guy is not easy to mess with.]
Chromie's shout awakened Krasus, who was exhausted mentally and physically. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Sarlayan helplessly spreading his hands, and a look of relief suddenly appeared on his face.
"Bless the Queen, I finally found you!"
Sarlayan came forward funny and hugged the relieved Krasus: "It seems that you have worked hard. I'm sorry to trouble you to make such a long trip."
Krasus smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I have long been accustomed to wandering around the world. Coming to Draenor can be regarded as gaining more knowledge. The problem is..."
Krasus implicitly used his eyes to signal Sharlayan to be careful of the four "imps" behind him.
Judging from the information provided by the barrage, the real troublemaker is Chromie, a little dwarf who likes to cause trouble.
Karen and Melinthera both have relatively mild tempers, but what makes Sharlayan unsure is the blue dragon prince Alygos.
According to the barrage, this blue dragon prince would betray his people and join Deathwing in the original history.
Since Arygos's appearance time was too short and he was only mentioned a few times in the background of the story, otherworld netizens were not sure what the character of this blue dragon prince was.
...But judging from the strange look he looked at Chromie, at least this guy did inherit the strange xp of the blue dragon clan.
In Krasus's narration, Sarlayan finally understood why they came so slowly.
The reason was that Chromie discovered that there was something wrong with Draenor's timeline, and there were signs that it had been artificially manipulated.
Although Krasus wanted to rush over and join Sarlayan as soon as possible, under Chromie's insistence, the five of them still traced the chaotic timeline.
Unfortunately, no decisive clues were obtained in the end. The thread was suddenly disconnected in Shadowmoon Valley. It seemed that the person behind the scenes deliberately cut off the traces.
"Is the timeline abnormal..."
There was a thoughtful expression on Sarlayan's face. Combined with the failure of his precognition ability that Velen mentioned before, he probably had some clues in his mind.
Noticing the change in Sarlayan's expression, Chromie put aside his previous unhappiness, jumped over with a small vertical step, and grabbed Sarlayan's pants with his two short hands and pulled hard.
"Do you know what's going on? Tell me quickly!"
"Hiss~"
Saraian, who was deep in thought, felt his pants sliding down and hurriedly grabbed the waistband of his pants.
"let go!"
"I don't! Unless you promise to tell me!"
"Let go first, your pants are about to fall off!"
"Just drop it. It's not like I haven't seen someone who has helped take care of the baby since he was a child."
"You female hooligan..."
Sarlayan said dumbfounded: "Okay! Let go first, and I'll tell you right now."
Chromie took two steps back proudly: "That's pretty much it. Come on, tell me."
Sarlayan rolled his eyes, and Krasus shrugged at him amusedly.
'So I said it, problem child.'
Karen and Melinsela both had suppressed smiles on their faces. Alygos's expression was not very good, and he stared at Sarlayan sideways as if he were looking at a competitor.
'What the hell...I'm not interested in dwarfs.'
[Tsk~Xiao Sa, you don’t understand the fun of adults driving a children’s car.]
【Shut up! This is not a bus to kindergarten!】
Under Chromie's helpless gaze, Sharlayan sighed and explained: "This is a long story. Have you ever heard of Kil'jaeden the Deceiver?"
…
On the eastern coast of Gorgrond, Sinestra, who had come all the way from Frostfire Ridge, had joined Stellagosa and Valeera, and Onyxia also found an opportunity to sneak out to meet them.
"Um?"
Seeing that there were only Stellagosa and Valeela, Onyxia asked strangely: "Where is Sharlayan? That kid didn't run away from the battle, right?"
Stellagosa shook her head and explained: "He stayed in Talador Forest waiting to meet with the representatives of the Four-Colored Dragon Clan. He should arrive soon."
Valeera intercepted Onyxia's continued question: "Let's get down to business first. How is your plan going? What are your next steps?"
Onyxia's eyes flashed, and a confident smile appeared on her lips.
"I'm going to start an internal fight among the three adult black dragons. I'm going to pull a side frame to balance the strength of the three parties."
Onyxia handed a hand-drawn map to Valeela: "Take this opportunity, follow the points marked on this map to attack one by one, first move the dragon egg to a safe place, and then gather back and collect it together.
Three adult black dragons!"
The plan framework is very clear and there is nothing to question, but Valeera still has one most critical issue.
