"Stremgard will become an island of the Alliance!"
This sentence hit Trollbane's heart at once, and the already fiery king said loudly.
"The Alterac problem must be solved today! Otherwise, I will send troops to Alterac and impose military control there!"
Since the end of the war, Trollbane has endured this matter for a long time. Falkrest, who had participated in the rebellion, spent a large sum of money on his life and advocated that Trollbane should occupy Alterac.
Only then did he gain the protection of Stromgarde.
Now that he cannot capture Alterac, he is already very angry. If the road to the west is blocked again, Trollbane will definitely fall into rage.
Unable to communicate with the mainstream countries in the alliance, is it possible for his country to go south to search for allies? The south is an endless wetland! Even a tough race like the dwarves is not willing to set foot in the swamp!
Trollbane's words shocked Terenas and the others. Considering Trollbane's past character, if Alterac loses control, there is no guarantee that he will not do this.
"Your Majesty Trollbane, please don't get excited yet. There is still room for things to turn around."
Terenas quickly dissuaded him, and Li De also put forward his own plan at the right time.
"Yes, things are still turning around. Alterac now needs an army and a large amount of supplies. If it is just to ensure the basic conditions of life, the rich Southsea Town and Lordaeron can easily meet it.
As for the army, countries don’t need to worry about allocating it. The alliance now has a ready-made army!
I recommend Marshal Lothar, in the name of the Alliance Commander-in-Chief, to represent all countries in military control of Alterac! Until a king recognized by everyone is elected and the transfer of power is completed!"
As soon as the military police thought about it, the sky and the earth widened.
Countries are concerned that Alterac cannot be controlled by one country, but Lothar is special.
He is the commander-in-chief of the alliance and does not represent the interests of any country. He can convince all leaders. At the same time, Terenas is also worried about how to arrange Lothar in the future.
"Nonsense, Lothar is from the Kingdom of Stormwind, how can he be in charge of Alterac?!"
Presto's position was finally in disarray. In the face of Lothar, a strong competitor, the reputation he had worked so hard for so many days was meaningless.
"Marshal Lothar is the heir of Thoradin's bloodline."
This alone is enough to silence those who question it.
"Lotha... he still has a position in the Kingdom of Storms..."
Trollbane said hesitantly, and Li De explained with a smile.
"The Marshal believes that His Majesty Varian should be given space to grow as a person. Compared with trivial matters, the stability of the Alterac region is the most important.
The Marshal is absolutely loyal to the Alliance. What he pursues is the peace of the Alliance and is more reliable than some careerists with unknown origins. You should believe that the Marshal can complete a smooth transition there."
Li De carefully considered every word and spoke almost word for word.
Almost every sentence contains key information, including but not limited to: supporting Terenas's leadership, not harming the interests of other countries, and not seeking to make Alterac his private domain.
Deathwing was already out of anger at this time. From the expressions of the leaders, how could he not know that the situation was over? At this time, he could only use words to make a final resistance in vain.
"This is not in line with procedural justice! The outsider Lothar cannot gain the support of Alterac, and his army cannot enter Alterac..."
But just as he was mid-sentence, the door to the main hall of the palace was suddenly pushed open.
Terenas was about to scold who was so rude when he saw a stocky and strong dwarf walking in.
"Haha, please forgive me, I came here in such a hurry that I didn't care about etiquette."
The person who came in was Kurdran Wildhammer, the leader of the Wildhammer dwarves. He was equal to the kings in terms of status. He had a heroic personality, and his occasional rude behavior would be forgiven by the leaders.
"Chief Kurdran, what's the matter with you coming here in such a hurry?"
Terenas believed that Kurdran was only meeting with the dragon to rescue the Red Dragon Queen. As the rulers of Grim Batol, the Wildhammer dwarves must attend.
However, today is just an informal meeting, so Kurdran does not need to be present.
"Ha! I'm here to deliver a message! I received intelligence that the situation in Alterac is in crisis, and Marshal Lothar led the alliance army to wipe out the remaining local tribes.
We entered Alterac City at midnight last night, suppressed 100 local bandits, and eliminated 300 ogres who were attacking the city!"
Speaking of which, those syndicates were also unlucky. After Li De left, Buck hovered over Alterac several times every day, so that they did not dare to cause trouble.
Until yesterday, because Lordaeron had to prepare, Buck also left Alterac.
The bandits who did not see the dragon circling once again took a chance and went to the streets to rob. And this time they also sent manpower, with more than a hundred core thieves and peripheral bandits.
However, as soon as an incident broke out on their side, Lothar led the 800 leading troops of the Iron Horse Brotherhood and rushed to Alterac on a starry night, just in time to see the bandits running rampant in the city.
Just after sending Li De and the giant dragon away, they ran into the elite soldiers who had defeated the tribe. Of course, the fate of those syndicates goes without saying.
In the meeting hall, the leaders looked at each other in confusion. While this matter was being discussed here, news came from Lothar's station in Alterac. Isn't this connection a bit too fast?
Even Antonidas, who had always trusted Li De, had a subtle expression. Could it be that Li De and Lothar had planned this matter a long time ago?
Li De explained without changing his expression.
"The Marshal has been paying attention to the military situation in various places. He should have received critical information about Alterac and responded so quickly.
It's just that the current marshal only has military command power and no power to govern the local area. I think your majesties might as well take this opportunity to formally appoint the marshal, and then manage the local area in a legitimate and legitimate manner."
Although no one believed what Li De said, they could not overturn this explanation.
And if you think about it more carefully, this is the best solution at the moment. Maybe it should have been a long time ago to cut the knot quickly, so they all choose to believe that this is just a coincidence.
"I……"
Until now, Deathwing still doesn't understand that this Li De has already planned it! He used his own request to solve the Alterac problem to achieve his goal!
He is not willing to fail. Black Dragon is not afraid of any difficulties. Even so, he will work hard to destroy.
Thinking of this, Presto immediately changed his face.
"Ah, thank you Marshal Lothar for solving the crisis in Alterac. In the future, the local nobles will definitely assist Marshal Lothar. I also want to join Marshal Lothar and contribute to the restoration of Alterac as a normal country.
."
The leaders are quite in favor of Presto's proposal.
Although Prestor seems to be a little cautious and not that strong, but because his bloodline is close to Perenolde, and judging from his demeanor, he must have a lot of prestige in Alterac.
However, Deathwing's last extravagant hope will eventually come to nothing.
After a whole morning of negotiations, the time has already reached noon, and today is another Sunday, and it is also a Sunday that the archbishop carefully prepared.
In addition to the Holy Light Cathedral, small churches in various neighborhoods also responded one after another. Inspired by Fao, many young apprentices also swayed the crisp bells and ran through the streets and alleys!
As for Fao himself, he was currently standing on the attic on the top floor of the cathedral, with the windows on all sides wide open. The old man was dressed in a pure white holy robe, selflessly singing heart-warming hymns!
The voice containing the Holy Light can be found in every corner of the city of Lordaeron. When the leaders heard the Holy Voice, their minds instantly felt cool, and all the inexplicable irritability in their hearts disappeared!
"Everyone! What are you..."
Kurdran's eyes widened. As soon as he entered Lordaeron with his griffon, he felt that Lordaeron today was different from usual, making him particularly uncomfortable. Seeing the changes in the leaders, he seemed to understand.
What!
Wisps of black energy were expelled from the bodies of the leaders and instantly dissolved into the air!
"ah?!"
The first person to react was Antonidas. Although he couldn't see himself, he could clearly see Trollbane sitting opposite, exuding a strong black aura!
"wrong!"
Antonidas became vigilant at the thought, and as he thought about it, the complex and dense magic lines of the double bed radiated from his body, forming a tube around him.
The Archmage checked his magic circuit, and finally found a shadow entwining it in several subtle places. The Archmage stretched out his hand and touched it, and the last bit of shadow dissipated.
Looking at Trollbane at this time, the shadow in his body has not yet dissipated. No wonder he was so irritable just now.
Antonidas no longer looked at Trollbane, but looked at Deathwing with a wary face.
"Lord Presto, you need to explain what this means!"
While questioning, Antonidas blamed himself for being lax. Now that Lord Presto is surrounded by abnormal energy, how could he believe him like that just now?
And being able to affect this great magician of his own shows that Presto is accomplished in shadow magic. This guy is definitely a dangerous person!
Antonidas was not the only one who was angry. Trollbane even wanted to draw his weapon and fight him. This king with a fiery nature hated others to fool him the most.
Seeing that his conspiracy was discovered, Deathwing was extremely angry, and he could no longer suppress the madness in his heart.
However, at this moment, Li De stood in front of Deathwing and asked loudly.
"Lord Presto! As a noble, how can you enter the venue with a black magic product?!"
While speaking, Li De quickly grabbed Deathwing's hand and showed the magic wand in his hand.
"You'd better explain clearly. If you don't understand that this is a black magic artifact, the kings present may forgive you for your unintentional mistake! It's just because of your fault that you will no longer be welcomed by the alliance. We will
You are expelled from Lordaeron!"
"this……"
Terenas and others were stunned. If the problem was just with the magic wand, everyone would still be able to accept it.
After all, Presto had shown himself to be an honest man before. If he had just mistakenly brought a black magic product into the venue, it would have been considered an unintentional mistake. Even if he had deliberately used black magic products to carry out small tricks, at most he would have gone astray. Everyone.
I still can't accept that a decent man can be an evil dark wizard.
Only Li De knew that this guy was clearly a dark devil. Li De hoped to use this method to warn the other party to stop and not let the matter develop to a point where it cannot be ended.
Deathwing finally understood that this guy knew his identity from beginning to end!
I have fooled myself for a long time, ruined my plan, and now I want to put on a show to make myself retreat!
Why should the noble Deathwing accompany him in this scene?!
The Black Dragon King is not going to pretend anymore, he is going to show his cards, he is going to turn Lordaeron into ashes!
Feeling that the opponent's strength was increasing, Li De felt that he would be unable to hold the opponent's arm in the next moment, but he still forced himself to calm down and stared into the opponent's eyes.
At this critical moment! From the corner door of the meeting hall, an ignorant child ran out, seemingly not paying attention to the current crisis, and said to Terenas recklessly.
"Father, why are you still here? A guest from afar is coming soon? I also want to meet the Dragon King..."
Halfway through the words, the little boy seemed to belatedly aware that there was an outsider, and covered his mouth with both hands.
Deathwing's strength was exhausted. Although the child's speech was unclear and accompanied by severe swallowing of words, he clearly heard that the last word the child did not finish was "Dragon King"!
Feeling the opponent's strength weakening, Li De quickly moved closer and whispered to Deathwing.
"Your Majesty, the Aspect Dragon is here for evil this time. This is a meeting arranged in advance. They don't know that you are in Lordaeron. It's still too late to leave now."
Although his voice was very low, Li De's tone was extremely determined, and Deathwing did not see any dissociation in his eyes.
"call!"
Deathwing struggled to throw away Li De's arm, took a deep breath and forced himself to be the elegant Presto again.
"Your Majesty, please forgive my recklessness. I obtained this item during a trip. Now that I think about it, it is because of this black magic artifact that it has been affecting my body.
Although this was an unintentional mistake on my part, I am deeply disturbed by my recklessness. I have no face to stay any longer and will leave Lordaeron immediately. Finally, I beg for your forgiveness."
After saying that, Presto placed the magic wand on the round table, ignored what the leaders had to say, turned around and strode away. Because he was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to suppress the anger in his heart.
If the Dragon King really comes, Deathwing without the Demon Soul will be seriously injured even if he can win with his broken body.
He didn't dare to gamble. It was just to avoid pursuit that he transformed into Presto to conspire and provoke him. He couldn't be exposed to the sun yet.
