Azeroth’s Death Track

Waiting is always the hardest, but the waiting time also passes in the blink of an eye.

On the afternoon when Varian arrived at the port of White Tower City and set off for the city of New Lordaeron, other kings also came to the capital of Lordaeron one after another. For a while, prominent figures from the entire human empire appeared in New Lordaeron one after another. Danlun City made this inland city built on the barren land immediately lively.

Even the Draenei and Bronzebeard Dwarves in Northrend sent envoys, and the stingy goblin merchants were also generous once in a while. The Steamwheedle Consortium formed a mission with extremely high standards. With the alchemist and great businessman Northenfogg as the leader, he traveled across the Shining Plains to Thousand Needles with expensive gifts and some commercial products.

In the Silithus War that ended a year ago, Alsace and the leaders of other races also got acquainted, so the day before the big wedding, the Blightcaller, Horde, Night Elves and even wild boars all sent Here comes the spectators.

Of course, the envoys of the night elves came in the personal name of General Shandris who was stationed at Feathermoon Fortress, and the wild boars were represented by the first demigod priest in the civilization system they rebuilt. Agamaggan, the demigod of the wilderness who was recuperating, sent a precious gift to show his respect for Arthas' heroic performance in the Battle of the Shifting Sands.

And the identity of the last guest who arrived at Baita Port was extremely special, and even directly alarmed His Holiness the Pope of Baita Port.

It was a female paladin who came all the way from the Stratholme region in the northern border. Her name is Bridget Abides, and she is the leader of the Holy Light Order of the Scarlet Crusade currently occupying the Stratholme region. , the former deputy head of the Knights of Lordaeron, the only daughter of the great knight General Abides, came here on behalf of the entire Scarlet Crusade.

For those martyrs of the Holy Light who still stick to the battlefield in the northern border and guard the last piece of their homeland for the empire, even the harsh nobles dare not slander them in public, and their loyalty to the Holy Light and the Empire is even more spread in the world. In the Church of the Holy Light, there is a sacred story like the prophecy of the gods, and although the high-level empire and the crusaders in the northern border have not lost contact during the years of the empire's reconstruction, this is the first time that such an envoy has been sent. Second-rate.

30 minutes after landing, Miss Abedis was personally received by the Pope, and then she met with other kings on behalf of the Scarlet Crusade. No one knows what they discussed, but from the solemnity of the kings Judging from his expression, it must be a very important thing.

And in the early morning of the next day, the whole city of New Lordaeron was like a shining coin under the careful arrangement of the servants serving the royal family. The red ribbons, the giant red carpet woven by the centaur slaves are the cross-haired roads that run through the entire city.

The king's guards wearing ceremonial armor lined up in groups of five at every alley, serving as a space between civilians and ceremonies, and some young people came out of their homes before dawn, dressed in the best clothes, and stood at the guard They entered the viewing area behind them, waiting for the wedding of Her Majesty Alsace and Princess Jaina to begin.

In this era, especially under the empire system, the people have too few entertainment items. Such a grand wedding can just satisfy the people's yearning for entertainment and relaxation. Of course, some of these bustling crowds are unwilling to be lonely The guy wants to make a big news, but the agents of the League of Assassins who are mixed in the crowd will drag them out of the crowd before they can do it.

And above the city, the three airships specially prepared by the goblin profiteers for the guests have already taken off, and the airships are full of dignitaries. The tickets had already been sold out. The original price was 500 gold coins, but under the hype of goblin scalpers, such a ticket even sold for 2,000 gold coins.

Just three slightly modified airships made the Steamwheedle Consortium a profit of almost 50,000 gold coins. These little green-skinned guys' amazing sense of trade and profit have once again been brought into full play.

Such a ceremony...too extravagant.

Sitting in the front row of the grand viewing platform prepared for the nobles, Miss Bridget Abedis, who was wearing a plain military uniform, frowned, looking at everything arranged on the large platform of the city square, she couldn't help but Complained to the great knight Uther beside him:

The cost of this ceremony is at least enough for the four orders of the Crusaders to launch a joint operation that lasts for two months. We lack everything there, except for those damned undead.

Miss Abbendis shook her head, and Uther, who was sitting next to her, patted Abbendis on the shoulder with a kind gesture towards her daughter. After the great knight arrived in Kalimdor, he Fatigue is evident, and now he looks as if he has aged a teenager, and his hair is all white.

The big knight slightly closed his eyes, sighed, and said to Miss Abedis:

There are many difficulties in rebuilding the empire, Abidis, you are a good soldier and will become an excellent commander in the future, but you have to understand that the most important thing in any war is the fighting spirit and courage in the people's hearts, no matter how great the difficulties are, as long as you If the people and we work together, we will surely get through this difficult time. Although the wedding ceremony is expensive, the blood relationship between the two countries can bring great confidence to the people... that is what we need most in this difficult time .”

While talking, Uther looked at the thoughtful Miss Abbendis, he smiled, and said to Abbydis:

Tell me about those weird undead again...I heard from you yesterday that they even sent messengers to you, expressing their desire for peaceful coexistence? This doesn't sound like something that Darkblade or Scourge undead would do matter.

Yes, Uncle Uther.

Miss Abedis sat on a chair in a soldier's standard posture, with her hands on her knees, and explained to Uther:

We have observed those weird undead for several years. What is certain is that they really don't seem to have much relationship with the dark blade, and they have also joined the federation, which is regarded as a race composed of civilizations by the federation, and humans There is no difference between dwarves and gnomes, but that being said, after those undead who call themselves undead joined the Federation, they received arms support from the Black Iron District of the Federation.

Miss Paladin waved her fist unconvinced:

They are very weak, at least much weaker than the Dark Blade Undead, but with the blessing of those weapons, they also become very difficult to deal with. Those Undead are very intelligent, almost indistinguishable from living people. In an operation last year, They set a trap for the Third Religion, which almost wiped out the Third Religion, but the undead did not harm the captives, but sent them back.

Abidis sighed, a little helpless, and said sadly:

Father discussed with the other great knights for several days, and finally we had to accept the peace proposal proposed by the undead lord named Dylan, because...we really can't fight anymore, and everyone's living supplies are very short , the young people want to rest, the old people also need medical supplies...those cunning bastards!

They seem to have seen our weakness. A few days after the peace agreement was reached, they sent merchants to sell us some commodities that we need very much... What a shame!

No, no, boy, it's not a shame.

Uther saw that Bridget's voice had a hint of crying, and the big knight comforted him:

You have done well enough to liberate a third of Stratholme under such difficult circumstances, children, no one can ask you to do better, and the Pope already knows your Difficulty, don't worry, we will try our best to support you, even... even give you the power to form the Church State, no one can blame you!

The white-haired big knight seemed to have made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said:

Even if we try our best, children, we will never give up on you! Never! You can't go home...then home is for you! Even if it is another battle in the northern border...we will definitely do it Arrived!

During the conversation between the two, a bright salute was fired, which represented the beginning of the wedding ceremony. All the distinguished guests stood up and looked out from the big platform. The gate of New Lordaeron was slowly pushed by 18 knights. Open, a gorgeous carriage representing the royal family of Lordaeron slowly drove into the main road of the city, 8 white war horses without a trace of hair, covered with gorgeous armor, slowly entered the city under the driving of the best driver. the view of the public.

Wearing the golden armor representing the status of a paladin, with shoulders dotted with shoulder armor of a lion, Alsace is wearing a crown, holding the justice of the holy light in both hands, standing on the stage in front of the carriage without squinting, the red The cloak flutters with the wind, looking majestic.

Before and after the carriage, Farik, the most loyal guard of the kingdom, personally led the paladins to guard the carriage. Behind the knights, were carefully selected warriors. Under the polished and shiny spear, the blue Lordaeron banner was hung, and the warriors moved forward slowly amidst the hymns blown by the trumpeters.

This ceremony was carried out in full accordance with the ancient rituals of the Arathor Empire, and it was not as complicated as the nobles. Under the cheers of the people and the sky full of flying petals and ribbons, His Majesty Alsace's chariot and horses passed by the main trunk Dao, after 10 minutes of slow progress, arrived at the ceremony stage of the wedding scene.

Under the guard of the knights, the king stepped down from the carriage, and then, amidst the cheers and applause of the spectators from all over the world, he walked up to the large platform with 33 steps. On the top of the large platform, the aging Pope Holy Light , Alonsus Faol was wearing a golden robe and the Pope's crown. With the support of two paladins, he was standing behind the ceremony stage.

Being able to invite the Pope to witness the wedding has already demonstrated the status of Alsace in the new imperial system. Of course, this is also because both parties to the wedding are of high status. Apart from the Pope, only The remaining cardinals who should have been stationed in various countries, but considering the complexity of the kings and envoys of various countries, the tired and old Pope decided to preside over the ceremony himself.

Alsace stepped forward and stood on the red carpet. He looked at the Pope, and the old man smiled at him. Amidst the cheerful singing and music, the cheers of the people and the magician In the halo of fireworks released in the sky, Jaina, wearing a blue wedding dress and holding flowers, appeared under the ceremony stage, and Derek Proudmoore stood beside his sister with a serious face. Alsace was not very satisfied, but on this occasion, thinking of his younger sister, who had always been regarded as the jewel in the family's palm, was about to get married, even the more stubborn Drake had red eyes.

And behind Jaina, Tenred Proudmoore, who was wearing armor as a ritual guard, stared at Alsace in front of him frequently. This bohemian admiral had a lot of opinions on Alsace.

But he can't hold back his sister...

As the youngest archmage, Jaina has experienced too many big scenes, but at this moment, standing in front of the red carpet, Jaina became nervous unexpectedly, and just as she was about to step on the red carpet At the moment of the carpet, a strange and familiar voice suddenly sounded in her mind, still as lazy as last time, just listening to the voice, one could imagine how beautiful and peerless the owner of the voice was.

Hey, little sister, today is your big day...but my sister is more curious about...

Are you really ready?
