As the war between Lordaeron and Alterac entered its third month, the residents of the Eastern Kingdoms who had been paying attention to the matter finally heard good news.

The peace talks between Lordaeron and the Anti-Lordaeron Alliance will be hosted by the neutral country Quel'Thalas. At that time, all participating parties will send representatives to Silvermoon City to attend the meeting.

As the behind-the-scenes facilitator of the peace talks, Sharlayan's achievements cannot be made public, but the high-ranking officials of Quel'Thalas, including Kael'thas, are fully aware of his outstanding contribution to this incident.

After receiving Daniel's report, Garrard, director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, joked that Earl Deep Shadow might be forced to betray his hue during this mission.

Garald's "humorous" speech sparked a wave of gossip among the upper echelons of Quel'Thalas, and thus drew Sharlayan's death stare.

However, it can also be seen from this that the senior officials of Quel'Thalas are very relaxed at this time, and they are still in the mood to make jokes about Sharlayan's "love affair".

In fact, this gossip rumor is completely false.

It's a pity that Sharlayan's protest didn't have any effect. I don't know which **** couldn't control his mouth and revealed some news that didn't involve secrets to the people.

The rumors about Sharlayan Earl Deep Shadow's affair in Lordaeron became more and more outrageous, and soon spread to the ears of Valeera and the others who were still waiting for Sharlayan's return in the territory.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

As an expert in spreading rumors for fun, Onyxia saw the fatal loophole in this rumor at a glance.

But this raging fun-loving man who was waiting to see what happened had no intention of telling Valeera and Stellagosa the truth.

When Sharlayan returned home from Silvermoon City with a yawn, what awaited him were Valeera and Stellagosa, who were posing with their hips akimbo in the shape of a teapot, clearly in the attitude of a trial tribunal.

Oh yes, there are also Onyxia and Tinagosa who are joining in the fun.

It is said that there were screams of grief and anger from the lord's mansion in the earldom that night.

"Galad Broken Star! I'm at odds with you!"

…

Not to mention a certain count who was on trial at home.

Sharlayan's achievements this time cannot be made public, but Kael'thas does not intend to treat his loyal friends who have always been loyal to him and Quel'Thalas badly.

When Liadrin led the Dawnguard Legion back from Northrend in triumph, Kael'thas suddenly brought up the old story again, and personally commended many soldiers who had made great contributions in the Battle of Northrend.

Taking this opportunity, Kael'thas, who got the tacit approval of the cabinet, took the opportunity to praise Sharlayan Earl Deep Shadow's outstanding performance in the Battle of Northrend, and took advantage of the opportunity to promote his title to Marquis.

This award naturally caused dissatisfaction among a large number of small and medium nobles, but the senior nobles who knew the inside story tacitly kept silent on the matter and did not express any opinions.

After all, this was the reward Sharlayan deserved, and Kael'thas just rewarded him for another reason.

The return of the Dawnguard was later than expected, mainly because Liadrin had to train a group of paladin recruits in New Sandarra who were better suited to the local environment.

When a newly promoted Marquis managed to settle the disputes in his family and went out for a briefing, he jokingly referred to these morning pioneer recruits as polar paladins.

Although it sounds like a joke, this title is indeed in line with the positioning of the group of paladins who stayed on the Arctic continent. Many people have followed suit and started to call the knights of the morning vanguard of New Sandara polar paladins.

Liadrin brought back about half of the soldiers of the Dawnguard Legion. Except for the heroic martyrs who died on the Northrend battlefield, the other veterans who had experienced blood and fire were left behind in New Sandara. Bring new.

In the few days since Liadlin came back, representatives of the various nobles came to congratulate her in turn, which made Liadlin very annoyed.

After becoming a paladin and really finding her own direction in life, Liadrin hopes to race against time to improve the combat effectiveness of herself and the Dawnguard Legion, and contribute to her motherland as much as she can, and she doesn't want to waste time on these meaningless greetings superior.

After a short rest in Silvermoon City for a week, she left Silvermoon City silently under the pretext that she still had military affairs, and hid in the deserted Chenfeng barracks for a long time.

It is said that Liadrin's old father was very comforted by his daughter's achievements, and planned to pass on his earl title to her in advance, so that he could take care of himself for the rest of his life.

When Sharlayan took the time to come to the Dawnguard barracks, he specially congratulated Liadrin, who was about to receive the title of Countess, on this matter.

When Sharlayan met Liadrin for the first time, the priestess had a gentle demeanor, a bit like an angel in white.

After many battles, she often fought the enemy with her life on the battlefield. She has a lot of heroism and evil spirit in her body. She is simply different from the previous priest Liadrin, and her temperament has changed greatly.

Angrily glaring at the smiling Sharlayan, Liadrin complained mercilessly: "You and Shiva run fast, leaving me alone to guard Crystalsong Forest, it's too heartless."

Sharlayan shrugged with a smile: "It doesn't matter who stays, anyway, there is no apparent war in Northrend during this time."

"Heh~" Liadrin showed a meaningful look on her face: "Indeed, Northrend has been barely calm recently."

"Except for the Vrykul in Howling Fjord who are still fighting in Utgarde Castle, all the original battlefields have subsided."

"but…"

Liadrin stared at Sharlayan with piercing eyes: "You have already seen it, right? Today's peace is just the calm before the storm. There is always an undercurrent surging in the land of Northrend."

Sharlayan nodded lightly: "The battlefield is indeed a good place to train people, and your overall outlook has grown a lot."

As Liadrin said, the peace in Northrend is only superficial, and the major forces are carefully maintaining this short and fragile period of peace.

Leaving aside the Lich King who is about to make a move, the local forces in Northrend are secretly planning their own plans.

According to the first-hand news from the Kul Tiras marines who besieged Utgarde Castle, the Dragon Ravager Vrykul led by the ancient Vrykul King Ymiron have gained the upper hand in the civil war, and it is only time before they win the final victory. question.

Once Ymiron overcomes the internal opposition, the second round of the battle between Kul Tiras and the dragon-slayer vrykul will be on the agenda.

The outcome of this battle will completely determine the ownership of the Howling Fjord.

After "dancing" with Quel'Thalas, Malak, the Frost King of Zul'Drak, had to re-evaluate the combat effectiveness of the high elves, and did not dare to easily believe the instigation of the Zandalari messengers.

Moreover, as Quel'Thalas' diplomatic envoy had said, the titan-forged creatures of the Storm Peaks to the north had been eyeing flesh and blood creatures like them.

The Drakkari trolls have fought against Loken's iron army and know how difficult these iron monsters are.

After the high elves took the initiative to offer an olive branch, Malak readily agreed to their proposal, and made the Iron Legion on the Storm Cliff the main target of defense.

However, Malak was still ruthless. He didn't want to have a direct military conflict with Quel'Thalas, but he frequently made small moves in the Far East bordering the Grizzly Hills.

Concerned about the reaction of Quel'Thalas and the threat of the Iron Legion further north, the Drakkari trolls invaded the Grizzly Bear Hills with a small force, and they could only make small moves secretly.

Compared with the powerful high elves ~lightnovelpub.net~ the grizzly-throated furbolg is regarded as a relatively easy persimmon by the Drakkari trolls.

But it is only relative.

Grizzly-maw furbolgs and Drakkari trolls have fought each other for thousands of years, and each knows each other well.

The tugging between the two sides in the northeast of Grizzly Hills will continue. It is unknown when enough hatred will accumulate and a full-scale conflict will break out again.

In addition, the underground of Northrend has also undergone changes recently.

Sarlayan had made a special investigation before when he was still in Northrend. The nerubians who established their kingdom underground have always wanted to return to the ground and expand the living space of the group.

However, according to the information recently sent back by the elite thieves of the Backlight Blade who sneaked into Azjol Nerub to collect information, the intention of the Nerubians to attack the ground is gradually weakening, and there seems to be something wrong with their group, which is flawless.

On the other hand, the night elves pioneering troops who landed from the Borean Tundra and drove all the way into the Sholazar Basin also encountered some moderate problems.

First of all, the sea transportation route from Kalimdor to Northrend has been constantly infested by Naga.

Although there is assistance from the water element of Hydracia, long-term attacks on the supply line are not a solution. The problem of Naga harassment must be resolved as soon as possible.

Secondly, since the ecological problems of animals and plants in the Sholazar Basin are different from those of the outside world, it is not Sharlayan's turn to comment on it. The night elf druids will naturally deal with it.

"Naga..."

Hearing this term from Liadrin after a long absence, Sharlayan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Queen Azshara kept her promise. After the deal was concluded, the Naga never let the land be disturbed."

"As for the sea transportation of the night elves... Let them take their time and find something to do for them, just treat it as training at sea."
