Although he successfully helped Inselton regain the dominance of Alterac Restoration forces from Duke Faculest, the current situation is still not optimistic.

With Gilneas assisting in the defense on the western front, it is impossible for the two sides to decide the outcome of such a large-scale legion-level battle in a short period of time.

There are too many variables in the battle on the front line of the Eastern Chillwind Post.

Before the private soldiers of the Barov family and the Ravenholdt thieves join forces to control the overall situation, the leaderless Syndicate may give up their defenses and collapse thousands of miles at any time.

Once Icewind Post is breached, Steinblad, who is temporarily serving as the capital of the newborn Alterac, will face the front of the Knights of the Silver Hand, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Alex was very annoyed by the strange things that the two strange sons did, but the matter had to be prioritized. Right now, the Barov family needs to race against time to bring back reinforcements for Inselton, and they have no time to pay attention to the one who is still hiding in Andorhal. Alex.

After experiencing a turmoil caused by the spy war, Barov Castle has been completely put under martial law. Only Alex, who is the head of the house, can come forward in person to allow Mrs. Yinluxia who is staying in the castle to open the gate.

Sharlayan and Valeera jumped off the back of Tinagosa, who was still in motion, one after the other, and let Tina continue to advance towards Caer Darrow.

Valeera lightly borrowed strength from the nearby big tree many times, and landed smoothly on the ground.

Sharlayan's actions were even simpler and rougher. When he fell vertically to less than 10 meters from the ground, he suddenly launched a heroic leap, stepped on the air for a second jump, and stepped heavily on the ground with both feet to land.

The place where Sharlayan and Valeera landed is on the right side of Chillwind Hold Fortress.

According to the information provided by the barrage, this place will be called Regret Ridge in the future.

Today's Regret Ridge is still a vibrant small village, but due to the war that broke out not long ago, the villagers have already been evacuated by Andorhal officials, and they were taken back to the town for resettlement through the bridge directly connected to the east of Andorhal.

Since the beginning of the war, Mayor Matthew has blocked the Eastern Bridge, not allowing anyone to come and go.

There is no one in the small village of Huihuiling, which still retains a lot of life, at least...no one can be seen on the surface.

After Valeera landed without any pause, she immediately entered the stealth state, and even reminded Sharlayan in the soul link channel.

"Sharlayan."

"Well, I feel it too, there are thieves lurking nearby."

The movement of Sharlayan's landing was quite loud, which would undoubtedly attract the attention of nearby Lordaeron scouts.

Through Valeera's shared vision, Sharlayan could see that she was moving at high speed, and soon caught a thief from a bush.

"Well~"

The Lordaeron thief whose mouth was covered by Valeera from behind only let out a short sigh.

"Crack!"

In order not to cause a **** smell, Valeera grabbed both sides of his head and twisted hard to break his neck.

"The first one, there are 4 left, be careful yourself."

Sharlayan stood still and did not move. He deliberately took out a roll of sheepskin map from the magic package, and frowning in a pretentious manner, he gestured on the map, as if he had gone the wrong way.

Sharlayan's performance confused those Lordaeron scouts who were not sure of his origin.

In any case, anyone who appeared in the battle zone would be forcibly captured and sent to the rear for identity checks, not to mention that Sharlayan was still a high elf with long ears.

As the diplomatic relations between Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas continued to deteriorate, the relationship between the people of the two countries was inevitably affected.

At this juncture, a high elf suddenly appeared near the battlefield, and he knew there was something wrong with his toes.

Four scouts, plus the one Valeera pretended to be, a total of five people quietly approached Sharlayan who was still reading the map.

"Aha~ So I'm here."

When Sarlayan rolled up the map again with a happy face, three of the scouts jumped up at the same time, completely blocking Sarlayan's retreat from three directions.

the fourth? When the other three launched an assault, he was first twisted and broken by Valeera's usual trick.

Sharlayan unhurriedly put the sheepskin map back into the magic package, his feet didn't move, and he twisted his upper body on the spot as if he was drunk.

"what?!"

The seemingly random twisting completely dodged the attacks launched by the three of them one after another, and the dull dagger brushed against Sharlayan's body until it was free.

Sharlayan smiled and waved to the surprised three people: "Hello, three, you have worked hard, goodbye, three."

"boom!"

Stomping **** the ground, the small-scale earthquake caused the three scouts who were caught off guard to stand unsteadily.

Sharlayan didn't even draw his weapon, and charged between the two scouts, spreading his mighty arms and lashing at their slender necks.

"Card!"

There was a crisp sound of bone cracking, and the two men with broken necks flew upside down with pain on their faces, and died before they landed.

The last scout wanted to retreat in shock and anger, but it was obviously too late when he realized something was wrong.

"Cha!"

There was only one person left, and Valeera, who was catching up, didn't think about the smell of blood any more. Quelcella's transformed dagger pierced through the back of his heart, piercing his heart mercilessly.

"Done."

After pulling out the dagger, Valeera skillfully flung out the blood stained on the dagger.

"The road has been cleared, and Barov's reinforcements passing by will not be so easily spotted."

Chillwind Post can go directly to Caer Darrow by land, and Alex will definitely pass through this road when he returns with reinforcements.

Considering the possibility of winning by surprise, it is really necessary to check out the hidden dangers along the way in advance.

"Go, do business first."

Sharlayan and Valeera each took out a Syndicate standard leather armor from the magic package and put it on.

The eye-catching long elf ears of the two were collected by hats, and two black cloth scarves were covered on their faces.

Without the characteristics of the elves, the appearance of the two of them immediately changed drastically, and it was difficult for unfamiliar people to recognize them.

The defense force of Icewind Post is mainly concentrated in the main entrance leading to Andorhal, and the defense against the side is relatively weak.

Now that the Icewind Guard is in chaos, the colleagues who appear from the side and rear will basically not be questioned. The answers prepared by Sharlayan and Valeera were not used, and they were directly put into the fortress.

Valeera couldn't help complaining: "With such espionage defenses...he deserves to be infiltrated into a sieve by Lordaeron."

"Heh~" Sharlayan lowered his head and chuckled: "Don't ask too much. If Duke Faculest is still there, the Syndicate's defense strength should be higher, but... who made them leaderless now?"

The Syndicate in the fortress did not know that their leader, Duke Fakurest, had quietly returned to Steinbred.

Morale inside the sentry is a bit low, but it's still some way off from crashing.

As Sharlayan had expected, the common leader was unaware of the unrest in Steinbride.

The military officers in the camp were gathering together for a closed-door meeting. Sharlayan held the heads of two Lordaeron scouts in his hand, and asked to see the temporary chief of the camp on the grounds of reporting a mission.

After being crushed by the Knights of the Silver Hand for several days, the morale in the sentry was low, and they just needed some good news to stimulate the atmosphere.

The soldiers guarding the main camp tent saw the two bleeding heads in Salayan's hands, and immediately went into the tent to report excitedly.

Without interrogation or identity confirmation, Sarlayan and Valeera sneaked into the main camp so easily.

As soon as she entered the tent, Valila immediately noticed a pair of men and women who were also masked in black scarves.

Valeera: "What a coincidence, these two people fought with me in the sewers of the ruins of the Alterac Royal City before. I didn't expect them to be the top executives of the Syndicate."

"Oh?"

Sarlayan asked through the soul link: "Are you sure it's them? Isn't there a face towel blocking it?"

"Sure."

Valeera glanced at the female thief with relatively soft brows and eyes: "The scar on her left eye is too obvious~ lightnovelpub.net~ You can recognize it at a glance."

This pair of men and women are Yuri and Yulia brothers and sisters who just returned to Chillwind Hill to report on the implementation of the mission not long ago.

The mission of the two was secretly issued by the Duke of Fakurest, and must be reported directly to him.

But when the two brothers and sisters returned to the camp, they failed to see Duke Fakurest, and were blocked by his adjutant on the grounds that the Duke needed to rest.

Just as the two siblings were planning to meet again the next day, the elite Syndicate who had escaped from Steinbred informed them of the latest situation behind them.

Duke Faculest, who secretly returned to Steinbride to preside over the overall situation, was defeated and captured, and Inselton Perenolde had become king with the support of a large number of nobles.

Then, the high-level syndicate who stayed at Chillwind Post had differences of opinion due to the changing situation.

Some people want to put down the fight and flee into the forest, some people want to fight back to Steinbride to rescue the Duke of Fakurest, and some people advocate continuing to stick to the guard post and wait patiently for Inselton's recruiting envoy to come.

As long as they can get official recruitment, these thieves will be able to cleanse their identities and become members of the nascent Alterac kingdom again.

Brothers and sisters Yuri and Yulia are representative figures who advocated taking refuge in Inseton.
