Shadow Bear Tibbers’ Plane Journey

The main castle of the fortress of Stormwind, this huge fortress built on the edge of the city is located in the northwest of the city, and it guards Stormwind from a high level! At the same time, it also highlights the supreme power and status of kings and nobles.

Here, it is not only an important fortress to defend Stormwind City, but also the residence of members of the royal family of Stormwind City and some important nobles. Of course, it is also the most important center that governs the city of Stormwind and the Kingdom of Stormwind!

However, now the sky is gradually brightening...

Last night, a dozen or so kings, nobles, military and political councillors or generals who came here in the middle of the night to meet urgently and discuss countermeasures are still arguing and arguing in this king’s conference hall. Did not draw a reasonable final conclusion.

The reason why they are here is that, last night, the agents of the MI7 who were on a special mission in the Westfall sent back some very important news about Stormwind:

First: The Defias Brotherhood in the Westfall resurrected again. After a few years, the daughter of Edwin VanCleef, Vanessa VanCleef, who finally appeared, reorganized this riot organization and made it. Carry forward!

The intelligence agents of MI7 estimate that in the next three to seven days, when their weapons and equipment are delivered in place, a large-scale armed uprising will begin to erupt in the Western Wilderness, in the large granary of the Kingdom of Stormwind!

Those members of the Defias Brotherhood who shouted "Kill the nobles, divide the fields, and pay less" are a huge threat to the security and rule of Stormwind! And now, in the Westfall, the power of the Stormwind Kingdom is extremely weak, and the Western People’s Army formed by Paladin Grian Stallman is seriously insufficient and lacks training. The success rate of successfully quelling the Neodefia Brotherhood is very high. low……

Second: The leader of MI7, Master Assassin, Matthias Shaw, was killed when he attacked the food transport team of the New Defias Brotherhood in the northwestern area of ​​Dimont in the Western Wilderness...and the 80 who were there at the time. The remaining MI7 agents also died gloriously!

Third: There is a girl of the demigod Anne Hasta, who is suspected of being the queen of the Flame Kingdom, appeared at the scene of the death of Mathias! This powerful man who created the Flame Alliance, defeated the undead natural disasters and repelled the defiler Archimonde, has disappeared for several years and is suspected to appear in the world of Azeroth again! Moreover, her appearance directly led to Arcane Archmage Kom's surrender and treason...

"..."

King Varian Wrynn looked at the nobles, parliamentarians and military generals who were still arguing with a headache. It has been several hours since they received the news late last night and urgently arranged this meeting until now, but... they still haven't discussed an effective way out.

Moreover, it seems that it will definitely not be a good idea in the end?

So after thinking about it, Varian had to sigh, got up and left his throne, walked to the big window of the king's conference hall, and silently looked at the misty scenery in the morning outside the window.

Here is his Stormwind City...

Although the sun in the early morning has not officially risen, but the tops of the rows of buildings in the city have begun to emit smoke, and the citizens of Stormwind are ready to start a new day under the ringing of the morning bell. Life and work... From afar, the number of pedestrians on the street is gradually increasing, coming and going, and from time to time there are some carriages rushing to make the neigh of horses faintly heard... This city, it has now begun Woke up.

Varian felt a little proud. Their Stormwind City is now not only a prosperous and beautiful city, but also the economic, political and cultural center of the entire kingdom and even the entire Stormwind Alliance. I think back then, after the war and destruction of the orcs in the Second War, it was full of broken walls, and after being rebuilt, it has become more glorious and magnificent than before!

It can be said that it is now the most dazzling pearl in the world of Azeroth! It is even more magnificent and magnificent than the original largest King City of Lordaeron in the north!

However, all kinds of things happening in the Wild West now make him look at this beautiful city, and he always feels that there is a lingering haze over it...

Relying on the topography of the fortress of Stormwind City, from this window in Varian, you could have a vague view of the Valley of Heroes to the south of Stormwind City...plus the weather today is so clear that those in the distance He could see the huge statue clearly.

He knew where were the five heroes of the Dark Portal Expedition: Prince Danas Trollbane from the Kingdom of Stromgard, and Eleria from the High Elf Kingdom of Quel'Thalas? Windrunner, General Turalyon of the original Kingdom of Lordaeron, Kurdran Wildhammer in Eagle's Nest, Khadgar in Dalaran...

In this free stall, Varian Wrynn even had time to think maliciously, if the five heroes who had been thought to have been sacrificed and erected statues to commemorate them would return to the world of Azeroth again, I'm afraid that except for the prince Danas Trollbane of the Kingdom of Stormgard, which they can fight for, the other four people will definitely part ways with the Kingdom of Stormwind, right?

At that time...

These statues of enemy heroes may not be suitable for them to stand...So, as a king, will Varian be ordered to be overthrown...or not? Let alone the future of this matter, just let him think about it now, it feels very embarrassing!

"..."

"Your Majesty, things are very troublesome now. I am afraid it is difficult to find a perfect solution in a short time. So... maybe you can go back and rest for a while?

At this time, he did not participate in those fierce quarreling Grand Duke Berval? Fortagan, as if he had been fighting, wiped his sweat and walked to Varie standing in front of the window looking at the scenery and dazed. Beside King Ann, persuading each other.

"No, they are about to get results, wait a minute..."

Varian shook his head, rejecting the Duke's kindness.

"Boval, you said, we killed that Edwin VanCleef a few years ago, but now there is another Vanessa VanCleef... What happened to the Masons' Union, did we really do something wrong? ?"

Looking at this huge and prosperous city, and thinking about it was actually built by the Masons’ Guild and Van Cleef, Varian couldn’t help sighing again, his chest was like a huge stone, which was extremely uncomfortable. .

Once upon a time, he always thought that when he personally annihilated the Defias Brotherhood and captured the beheading of Edwin VanCleef and showed it to the public, this matter might be completely exposed, and no one would ever mention it again... But how can I think that after six years, this matter has once again fermented, and it has become more serious?

Think of the daughter of Edwin mentioned in the intelligence, the Vanessa VanCleef who has a deep hatred with them in Stormwind, Varian felt a headache.

If they can explain the matter of the Stormwind Kingdom and the Masons' Guild, then the relationship between the Stormwind Kingdom and the leader of the new Defias Brotherhood, Vanessa, is a complete feud. , There is absolutely no possibility of relaxation!

"Your Majesty!"

"Please don't mess yourself up! Now the matter is not serious enough, and neither of us was wrong back then, but it was the hateful black dragon princess Onyxia who made troubles and bewildered us. And it provoked the relationship between the two parties!"

Knowing what his Majesty King Varian was thinking, Bovar quickly sang to relieve him.

These things, after smashing the black dragon's conspiracy last year, debunking the identity of the Countess Katrana Prestor and driving away from each other, they have analyzed and discussed various things in the past years in private, and they also analyzed the same. After the riots of the Masons’ Union. Thinking of the active countess back then, they estimated that everything was the conspiracy of the black dragon!

Maybe, Queen Tiffin's death at that time could not be related to the black dragon?

Originally, as the deceived Grand Duke of Fortagan, he wanted to summon the warriors to expedition to Dustwallow Marsh to attack Onyxia's lair and destroy the black dragon! However, when the Ahn'Qiraj worms and the flame alliance in the north and the Outland are in trouble, they have to interrupt all his plans and let a certain abominable black dragon princess survive to this day...

However, their Stormwind Alliance could be considered as having captured the Blackwing Lair in Blackrock Mountain, and drove away the other black dragon prince who couldn't get rid of it!

"Forget it, what you said makes sense, so don't think about the troublesome things!"

"It's been so long. Now, how are they discussing? Is there any effective way to deal with the new Defias Brotherhood?"

Even as a king, there are some things that Varian can't do whatever he wants! Just like now, a series of things have happened, one is more difficult, and the other is more difficult to handle. If he handles it casually by himself, it might cause a mess!

This is like the New Defias Brotherhood. If Varian is allowed to deal with it himself, it must be nothing more than to lead the army to the Westfall and kill all the rebels who are about to rebel. Or catch it, and then, at least can win internal peace for the Stormwind Kingdom for several years?

Although this method does not look great, it is indeed the best solution at hand! But... when he said it last night, he was severely rejected by a group of generals and congressmen...

That's because most of the main forces of Stormwind Kingdom have gone to Outland and the Northern Expedition in the north. If the few remaining troops in Stormwind are mobilized to the Westfall, it may not be useful if there are fewer people. It is estimated that they are not enough to kill the Defias Brotherhood! And if most of the elite troops of Stormwind are sent, who will defend the city at that time? Who will protect the property and personal safety of Stormwind and the nobles? !

Although they all support the King Varian, it does not mean that they are willing to put their property, family, and the capital of the kingdom in a dangerous situation!

You know, once Stormwind City’s defense forces have problems, maybe some hostile forces or those from the Northern Flame Alliance will risk sending some elite troops over. Even if they can’t completely occupy it, they will at least be able to give Stormwind City. Is it ruined?

Moreover, the forces that want to fight Stormwind are not only the Flame Alliance!

The remnants of the Blackrock Orcs who were driven away from Blackrock Mountain by their Stormwind Kingdom, the two terrifying black dragons, the goblins and even various pirates, etc., if they find that Stormwind’s defense force is insufficient and there are loopholes, those who see the money open. Guys, surely like a shark that smells blood, pounced on it and took a few bites viciously?

Therefore, before the Northern Expedition or the return of the army from Outland, no one can move the strength of Stormwind City!

"Huh! What can they do for their cowardly nobles?"

"You may not know that about Vanessa VanCleef and New Defias. I just listened to it for a while. Their basic solution is to make the old Paladin Grian Stallman and The other party’s Western People’s Army will deal with it. At most, Stormwind City will provide some weapons and equipment and military instructors. As for money and food, they won’t even give out a copper coin or a grain of food!"

Thinking of those greedy and stingy nobles and council members, Bolvar shrugged helplessly, and then stood beside Varian, side by side, silently looking at the scenery outside the window.

Now, in the distance on the eastern horizon, a red light gradually shines, and half of the sky is illuminated... Obviously, they have successfully spent half the night here, and now, a new day is finally about to come it has started.

"According to the results of their discussions, we don't even need to do anything now... If that old paladin can defeat or resist the troubles of the Defias Brotherhood, that would be the best! You know, wait until we pick up After the troops come back, those insurgents will definitely be out of luck!"

"And what I am more worried about is... how many people from the Flame Alliance are involved in it? That Queen of Fire, did she really come back... and why did she appear in the Westfall again?"

"Obviously, a powerful demigod mage is extremely terrifying to us!"

"In fact, if I can confirm that the opponent really reappears and is in the Westfall, then I also tend to protect myself first, and I can't just send out Stormwind City with only a few troops left."

Thinking of the powerful Queen of Fire and Vanessa VanCleef and the Defias Brotherhood mingling together, Berwal got a headache... Now that the opponent has troops and super high-level combat power, this battle really didn't Law fight!

If he was really allowed to lead all the elites in Stormwind to the Westfall, he felt that his chance of winning might not be too high if he faced a powerful wizard and a mob.

Looking at the warriors or wizards in Stormwind City, they couldn’t even do anything about the black dragon at the beginning, but let the opponent wreak havoc and escape calmly... And now, a demigod wizard who may be stronger than the black dragon princess, What can he do?

Therefore, he thinks that the best choice now is to withdraw the army, and to fight outsiders must first settle inside! But if that is the case, should we fight the Northern Expedition that is about to be won? Regarding the matter of Outland, should the large areas occupied and the Burning Legion continue to resist?

"Ha! Bovar, this is not like you!"

"That demigod mage who looks like a little girl, maybe she is really powerful, I admit it! However, the facts have proved that even the most powerful existence can be killed!"

"Think about Cenarius, the demigod of the wilderness and the demigod of the night elves. Wasn't he hacked to death by the orc swordmaster with an axe? Look at the more powerful, the Defiler Archimonde of the Burning Legion. , Isn’t it the same as being defeated and killed by our coalition forces on Mount Hyjal?"

"So, Bovar, you have to relax. You are just a demi-god mage on the left and right. At best, it's a little bit difficult, and there won't be any big problems!"

After patted Bolvar's solid shoulder, Varian himself laughed first. Because, it should have been the other party who wanted to comfort oneself, how come now, instead of persuading the other party?

"By the way, the war in the north... Are they guys still reluctant to retreat now?"

Like Bolvar’s wishes, now that there are problems in the Stormwind Kingdom and the reappearance of a Queen of the Flame Kingdom, Varian himself is more inclined to end the war in the north early and maintain the current pattern for the time being. Take it when you see it, and wait for the situation to become clear before making other plans?

"You want to retreat too...it's probably difficult!"

"You also know that although the night elves want to guard against the Horde, they have not sent more troops to the Northern Expedition... But those draenei who have newly joined our alliance, they have already sent a powerful as holy The Naaru like the **** of light and a large number of paladins and priests are powerful enough for our Northern Crusade to defeat the defenses of the silver hand paladins!"

"At this time, they must have landed on the front line of Nanhai Town, right?"

"So... Your Majesty, think about it. Seeing that a whole continent is about to be handed over, do you think those nobles will choose to stop at this time with such a huge benefit?"

Smiling and looking at the red sun that was gradually rising in the distance, Bovar cheerfully joked at his King and good friend Varian.

Victory is coming soon. A whole piece of the former Lordaeron continent, so many unowned lands, minerals, and other huge benefits are in front of you. Even Boval is a little tempted, let alone propose it. The group of nobles.

And this is the reason why those guys who sit back and watch the West Wilderness worsen, and have to take the North first!

"Ugh……"

"I always feel that things may not go too smoothly... Moreover, those naru, those living creatures like the holy light gods, they appear in our alliance, I always feel...this does not seem to be a good thing. !"

That's right, now Varian is a bit afraid of the Naaru!

Think about them, almost all of them believe in the Holy Light... Then the question is: if one day, those Naaru, let the people of the Stormwind Kingdom do something that violates the king's order, what should they do?

A living creature of the Holy Light appeared in a kingdom with the faith of Holy Light. Varian couldn't imagine how big a challenge that would be to the kingship of Stormwind Kingdom!

Although it may not have much impact in the short term, what about decades or hundreds of years from now? At that time, who should Stormwind Kingdom listen to?

At that time, those naru, who want to slowly evade the kingship of a country, it is not too easy! He knows that among the draenei, it seems that except for the draenei prophet who looks a lot like a devil and the spokesperson Velen, Naaru should have the final say...

This thing is terrible! Anyway, Varian hasn't found a suitable solution until now.

"Haha! Varian... you are finally a little mature! It seems that those days when you were a gladiator had a great influence on you!"

"It's good if you can think of this! But, I can't give you too much advice... You know, in this world of Azeroth, we cannot do without the Holy Light, we need the Holy Light to help us resist evil And defeat those powerful enemies! However, the balance between divine power and royal power is a philosophical issue. You can only understand it slowly and handle the relationship between the two parties!"

If it is an ordinary person, he might really dare not say this to the king! However, he is not only the Grand Duke of Stormwind, but also the regent of the Kingdom of Stormwind. It is just right for him to say these words! Of course, he can only click to the end, and he can't say too much!

After all, he Bolvar not only believes in the Holy Light, but is also a glorious Paladin who uses the power of the Holy Light. If he is asked to speak ill of the Naaru people behind his back, it really goes against his beliefs. , Then, does he still want the Holy Light, or do he want to be a Paladin?

And if you think about it more carefully, the current Prince Anduin is not only learning the way of warriors, but also the way of the holy light, and those naru...

Well, this is a very serious and serious issue, and he can no longer think about it!

"I will……"

After Varian's eyes flickered and changed for a while, he nodded and groaned.

Compared to the Grand Duke of Bourval, the Paladin, Varian is a warrior. He is not as scrupulous about the church and the Holy Light as the other party! It's just that the holy light is of great use to him, whether it is to calm people's hearts, maintain stability, or the power of those paladins and priests, he needs...

Anyway, this matter is unclear in a short time! At most, in the future, he must be more determined, and don't let those nasty Naaru creatures set foot on the land of Stormwind Kingdom! It's none of his Varian's business if they preach or gather believers to confuse people outside, as long as they don't come to Stormwind Kingdom to be an eye-obtrusive!

"Then there is only one thing left now: Mattias? Shaw, is there any suitable successor to MI7?"

MI7 is very important to the Kingdom of Stormwind and to King Varian! It is their eyes and the blade that sticks out, and this time, being able to send back so much important information in time also proves the necessity of its existence!

Although the death of Matthias Shaw made Varian a little sad, there are still some things that should be done. MI7 must not be paralyzed, let alone collapse! They must find a reliable and capable person to take over in time, and the sooner the better.

"Of course, I have just received the news. Last night, an excellent person was selected and successfully took over MI7! Your Majesty, you might as well guess...who will it be?"

Originally, Bolvar was very worried about MI7, and planned to let the king send his own people to take over. However, after a message from one of his subordinates, he finally let go of his mind completely, so now he is in the mood to play a guessing game with the king.

"..."

However, having not slept all night, and Varian, who was entangled with all kinds of annoying things, was not interested in fighting such dumb riddles with each other, he looked straight at the Grand Duke next to him, hoping that the other party would not Waste time in such a place.

"Well... the person who took over was Pasonia Shore!"

Seeing the majesty and impatient stare of His Majesty, Bolvar could only tell the new leader of MI7 directly without interest. Now, no one can reassure him more than this person taking over MI7, and at the same time, it can also guarantee that this organization will not have any problems due to temporary changes.

"Pasonia Shore..."

"She is... wait! Is it her? But... she is so old, how can she pay it back?"

When I heard that the successor was from the Shaw family again, Varian felt a little dissatisfied in his heart! At that moment, he even thought that the other party was a junior of the Matthias family! Just now, he even wondered whether to find someone to replace the other party from scratch. After all, MI7, an important institution in the Kingdom of Stormwind, has always been in the hands of the Shaw family, that's not a good idea!

However, when he finally figured out the meaning of Pasonia's name, he turned his head in amazement to look at the grand duke Bourwal with a natural look.

"That's right! It's her, she is back now! Your Majesty, don't you think that she must work harder than ordinary people in order to avenge her grandson, and it is more appropriate?"

The founder of MI7 once again took over MI7 again. In this case, neither the agents in the organization nor the upper echelons of their kingdoms would have too many opinions! No matter how you look at it, at this critical moment in front of you, there is really nothing better than her.

If you want to replace, you can survive the current difficulty first, and it’s not too late to wait until everything subsides!

"But, she is very old now..."

For a while, Varian still felt that his age might not be suitable for this position. They are all that old, and they make people return to the head of MI7, and if people who don't know the situation see it, they think that they are no longer capable of the Stormwind Kingdom!

"Your Majesty, please believe me! Although Pasonia is indeed a bit old, if she tries to assassinate me, maybe...I will not sleep all night!"

Azeroth is a magical world. For the powerful, as long as their strength does not fall, age is not important! Maybe Pasonia can live a hundred or two hundred years old?

"No... Is she really that good?!"

"Believe me, Your Majesty... She will only be more powerful than you think!!"

"..."

————

"Sister Lana, I don't understand..."

"Why does Her Majesty the Queen still look like that eight-year-old child? He even made me call her to be my sister with such a serious face... This is really a violation and shame..."

Early in the morning, in the Dimont Wilderness, here in the secret valley farm estate of the Defias Brotherhood, Vanessa VanCleef was propping her chin, lying down beside a wooden table in the courtyard.

And now, Her Majesty Queen Anne of their Flame Alliance is no longer here!

Her Majesty Queen Anne met Vanessa and stayed here for one night. Early this morning, she hurriedly teleported back to the north, leaving only the arcane archmage enslaved by the contract. Kom came to help her with Vanessa, and tried to make Stormwind a little more trouble here in the Westfall.

"Well, little Vanessa..."

"Anyway, Her Majesty Queen Anne is back now, so you don't have to worry about these little things! After all, when Her Majesty Queen met you, you were still a dirty little one!"

It sounded that the little guy who had been brought back by Her Majesty the Queen had now become a big girl, and Lana couldn't help but laugh.

She still remembered the events of that year, it was her maid of Her Majesty that gave her a bath! At that time, this little Vanessa, who looked thin and weak, was almost skinny, really pitiful!

"I'm really worried about the north now, and I don't know how the battle is going..."

"You know, the archmage Kom said: Those draenei who look like demons seem to have dispatched a large number of powerful paladins and priests, plus a pure light creature similar to gods. Lu participated in the battle against our Flame Alliance. If the battle situation is not good, then we will really be homeless!"

That’s right, it’s because a surrendered archmage confessed all the information. After he sold all the military secrets of the Stormwind Kingdom, Annie would only be here with Vanessa in this small farm. They stayed for one night, and after the addiction that the little Vanessa who was taller than themselves called her sister honestly, in the early morning of the next day, they hurriedly teleported back to the northern continent of Lordaeron. .

Because, a certain queen is actually very worried, and she is afraid that her own city of flame will be occupied by the enemy!

Therefore, those who are still here now, except for Vanessa, Lana, Lana’s foot-scraping warrior brother Pete, and a certain archmage who had to succumb to power, there is not much reliable in the Westfall. Great helper.

"Then we have to work harder! According to the departure date of the fleet mentioned by Her Majesty the Queen, I think, at most three or five days, those **** goblin fleets will arrive on the west coast. , When our military formation is finished, let's set off and lay down the entire western wilderness directly!"

"Then, go directly north to attack Stormwind City! If there is a chance, I will bombard or burn it! At that time, I believe that their army will definitely withdraw from the north!"

Vanessa stood up suddenly, waving her fists and shouting confidently! She believes that with her own current strength, she can definitely do this!

Because now, in addition to two powerful wizards and a useless warrior commander, her men are about to usher in a large group of goblin pirates, plus two Alliance captives who have escaped from Outland and a powerful orc shaman. ?

Vanessa has already thought about it now. When the time comes, she will let the orcs take the lead, kill the old paladin Grian who got in the way with them, and publicize the fact that the orc shaman is helping in her army. !

At that time, when their Stormwind Kingdom knew that a high-ranking orc team had partnered with the Flame Alliance to attack the Westfall, and if they wanted to attack Stormwind together, their expressions would be wonderful, right?

PS: The world of Azeroth is probably the same or longer than that of SHIELD. After all, I want to return to Azeroth again. If I want to write it, I will finish writing, at least until Sargeras asks for help. , Until the time when you force the planet... The number of words may be a bit long, I want to write more carefully, don't say I am water~
