Remember [New] in a second! The first unified country of mankind was called the Arathor Empire, which was established by Emperor Thoradin by integrating multiple early settlements.

After forming an alliance with Quel'Thalas and defeating the mighty forest trolls, the national power of the Arathor Empire entered its heyday.

But with the disappearance of the aged Thoradin, the Arathor Empire gradually turned from prosperity to decline, and finally split into seven human kingdoms.

The seven kingdoms are Lordaeron, Dalaran, Alterac, Gilneas, Stormgard, Kul Tiras, and Stormwind.

The six major human kingdoms are all located in the northern part of the continent, competing for territory with each other, but the Kingdom of Stormwind is rooted in the southern part of the continent, and thus has the most expansive territory.

The seven human kingdoms all claim to continue the bloodline of the Arathor Empire, but strictly speaking, only the Stormwind Kingdom is the orthodox successor of the Arathor Empire.

The reason comes from the Lothar family.

After more than two thousand years of development, the direct descendants of Emperor Thoradin became less and less, and in the end only the descendant of Lothar remained.

Since the nobles of the Arathor Empire fled to the south to establish the Stormwind Kingdom, the Lothar family has been with them all the time.

Although because of the secret agreement of the Seven Kingdoms, the Lothar family was unable to aspire to the supreme power, but as compensation, the Wrynn royal family of the Stormwind Kingdom has always treated them well.

In the generation of Ryan Wrynn and Anduin Lothar, the two have become close friends who don't talk about each other.

After the last guardian, Medivh, also joined this small circle, Prince Lane's father, King Baratheon, once thought that the time for the Kingdom of Stormwind to take off had come.

Even the powerful Arathor Empire will flourish and decline, and the Stormwind Kingdom, whose national symbol is the lion emblem, is no exception.

The territory of the Stormwind Kingdom at its peak was extremely vast.

Searing Canyon and Burning Steppes didn't start out this scorched and deserted picture.

During the War of the Three Hammers of the Dwarves more than 200 years ago, Thaurissan, the Dark Iron King, summoned Ragnaros, the King of Fire Elements, and a huge active volcano rose from the depths of the ground, which caused the surrounding area to drastic environmental changes.

Before that, the Burning Steppes were part of the Redridge Mountains, the northern border of the Kingdom of Stormwind.

Below the Burning Plains, the Redridge Mountains, Black Swamp, Westfall, and the vast Elwynn Forest are all territories under the name of the Kingdom of Stormwind.

When King Baratheon was in power, three energetic young men, Ryan, Medivh, and Anduin Lothar even invaded Stranglethorn Vale and began to gradually erode the inherent territory of the jungle trolls.

If it weren't for the spirit of Sargeras possessed by Medivh, causing Medivh to lose control of his magic power and kill his father, and he was in a coma for many years, the Kingdom of Stormwind might have taken Stranglethorn Vale long before the orcs invaded up.

It was also because of the coma of the guardian Medivh that the peak national strength of the Stormwind Kingdom began to gradually decline, which led to a series of subsequent changes.

The First Orc War was actually a war between the Stormwind Kingdom and the Horde.

Following the unexpected assassination of King Ryan by Garona, the leaderless Stormwind City was soon overrun by the Horde, and Prince Varian fled to Lordaeron to seek refuge under the protection of Lothar, the Minister of Tuogu.

More than a year ago, the original Alliance won the decisive battle with the Horde.

With the support of Terenas who had other plans, Prince Varian led the people and nobles who had fled to the north to return to their homeland and began to rebuild this war-torn country.

When the three of Sharlayan came to the skies above the town of Gold, the Stormwind Kingdom, which had not yet been rebuilt, had already seen its first signs of prosperity, and the Elwynn Forest, which was waiting to be built, was thriving.

Ironically, the people of the Stormwind Kingdom are full of vitality because the war resulted in the death of a large number of nobles, thus freeing up a lot of unmanaged land, and the exploitation suffered by the peasants is much lighter than before the country was destroyed.

From a certain point of view, this can be regarded as a breakthrough.

But Sharlayan knew that this situation was only temporary.

With that Ms. Prestor waving her long sleeves in the aristocratic social circle, the good days of the peasants will end sooner or later, and they will feel the pain of being exploited layer by layer by noble officials again.

Under the guidance of the Stormwind City Air Guard, Sharlayan's changed Griffin landed at the still very simple flying point, and turned back into a human form in front of the flight controller.

"you you…"

The flight controller was an uncle from the Mediterranean Sea. He had never seen a druid before, and the scene of such a transformation into a living person made his heart a little unbearable.

In time, Stellagosa hypnotized the poor flight controller, causing him to forget a small part of his memory.

Taking advantage of the drowsy Mediterranean uncle sitting on the ground against the wall, the three of them stepped away from the flying platform and formally entered the trade zone of Stormwind City.

Although it has not yet been completely rebuilt, the planning of Stormwind City has already been completed at this time, and all areas of the city have basically taken shape.

Comparing the plane map provided by the barrage, Sharlayan roughly figured out the structure of Stormwind City.

The capital city is divided into 8 districts: Trade District, Old Town, Mage District, Church District, Dwarf District, Garden District, Port and Stormwind Keep.

The trade area where the three of Sharlayan are now located is the most visited area in Stormwind City.

Traveling merchants from all over the kingdom will sell their wares here, and residents of Stormwind City will also come here to buy their daily necessities.

The second invasion of the orcs shocked the high-level officials of the Stormwind Kingdom, but this news was not known to the general public. After all, the scale of the battle between the two sides was small and far from being comparable to the previous war.

For ordinary people in the Stormwind Kingdom, the terrible war ended more than a year ago, and they who took refuge far away from their homeland can finally return to their homeland to enjoy a peaceful life.

Compared with the Gaoling tribe, whose customs are relatively primitive, human civilization appears to be more advanced. This is the first time Little Xingxing has seen such a prosperous and densely populated modern city.

Seeing Stellagosa's excited look, Salayan and Valeera took this curious baby around the city without rushing to get down to business.

It wasn't that Sharlayan and Valeera were slacking off. During the tour of the city, Valeera took the opportunity to find out the structure of the city, which might be used later in the implementation of the plan.

It is said that there are 8 large districts. In fact, the port and garden areas have not yet been built, and there are not many dwarves in the dwarf area.

There are only 5 areas that have actually been put into use. Excluding the Stormwind Stronghold area where the Wrynn royal family and nobles live, there are only 4 areas that need to be investigated.

The trade zone has the largest flow of people, and the security conditions are above average.

The old city is mixed with fish and dragons, but because it is close to Stormwind Fortress, there are a large number of guards stationed around the area, and the security conditions are not bad.

The safest area is the mage area where mage masters live, and there are very few rogues who dare to provoke the mage.

And the last cathedral...

Due to the pious belief of the human nations in the Church of the Holy Light, there are not many guards in the church square, but the security conditions are quite good, and usually no one will come here to make trouble.

The canal surrounding Stormwind City is still being dug, and the sound of clanging stones can be heard everywhere in the city.

Standing on the roof of a luxurious residence in the Mage District, Sarlayan looked down at the surrounding scenery and commented: "Overall, this is a very vibrant city, at least... for now."

Valeera, who was habitually playing with the throwing knife, asked, "What are you going to do next? You don't want to shout Onyxia's name in a simple and rude way, do you?"

Sharlayan shook his head and laughed: "How is it possible~lightnovelpub.net~ It would be too reckless to do that. Even if Onyxia can be provoked, we are not sure that we can keep her."

"Don't forget, I have an official status now."

"Well~"

Sharlayan took out a gold-red coat of arms engraved with the mark of the phoenix from the space package.

"This is the proof of identity given to me by the Sun King. I can openly, in the name of the nobleman of Quel'Thalas, ask to see the young King Varian."

"If it's not as expected, King Valeera should hold a small welcome banquet for us."

"Valeera, Stella."

Sharlayan solemnly said to the two: "At the banquet, I will deal with the nobles of the Stormwind Kingdom. You use your respective expertise to quietly investigate the people present."

"Once you find a suspicious person, don't rush to show hostility. We will discuss the next step after the banquet."
