After figuring out the joints under the prompts of the barrage, Sarlayan wanted to go to Dalaran immediately, contact Krasus through Ronin, and inform Wyrmrest Temple of Nefarian's little actions.
But after careful consideration, he gave up this plan for the time being.
Wrong time to intervene.
According to the barrage, Baron Preetos was the most active during this period.
When the Dark Portal opens next time, the orcs who are cornered will sneak into Azeroth to search for artifacts under the orders of the new warchief Ner'zhul.
Ner'zhul planned to use the power of these artifacts to open interstellar portals and take all the surviving orcs away from Draenor, which was on the verge of collapse, to a strange new world.
When the Dark Portal opens again, the Black Dragon Legion will enter Draenor with the last batch of black dragon eggs, trying to re-establish a nest on this remote planet far away from Azeroth and away from the threat of Wyrmrest Temple.
At that time, Baron Presto will suddenly disappear.
It was not until many years later that a young woman claiming to be his daughter would go to the rebuilt Stormwind Kingdom. After King Varian disappeared, she gradually became an important minister of the kingdom with her strong political skills.
Even if Sarlayan teleported to Dalaran as quickly as possible to connect with Ronin, with the dragon clan's slow pace of handling things, it would be at least half a month before they sent men to Lordaeron.
Now that the role of "Baron Presto" has been basically completed, Nefarian has successfully provoked discord among the four countries of Lordaeron, Gilneas, Kul Tiras and Stromgard.
In this case, even if Baron Prestor's true identity is exposed, it will not hurt him, but it will scare the snake.
There was no agreement on the second highly controversial issue, so Terenas had no choice but to put it aside and start discussing the third issue.
What to do with hundreds of thousands of Orc captives.
Having said this, Dai Lin was no longer sleepy. He was the first to stand up and express his position. The dead orcs are good orcs, and all the cruel beasts should be thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
Gilneas and Stromgarde agreed to Daelin's proposal.
The vote was in favor. Just when Daelin thought that the situation was settled, Terenas suddenly stood up and delivered a human rights speech with righteousness, "Orcs are humans too", and stunned Daelin on the spot.
Orcs are humans too, and those killed by orcs are not humans. They deserve to be unlucky, right?
The most unacceptable thing happened to Daelin. That old fool Antonidas actually agreed to Terenas' proposal.
Of course, he was not doing it for the human rights that Terenas claimed, he just wanted to use the orcs as research materials for Dalaran.
It is a mage's nature to be good at seeking death, and there is nothing wrong with this statement.
Prince Varian of the Kingdom of Stormwind was still young and was ignored by Terenas's upright speech. He really thought that Terenas left the orcs alive in order to promote the glory of humanity.
For example, the six human nations were tied, and the ball was thrown to the heads of other alliance members.
Kael'thas hesitated for a while, and finally decided that he could not offend both sides. He followed the dwarves and dwarves and abstained from voting without saying a word.
This issue froze again and was also temporarily shelved.
The fourth topic caused an uproar in the venue as soon as it was raised.
This topic is basically connected with the previous one. It discusses how to place so many orc captives on the premise of not killing orcs.
Terenas smiled and made the first proposal. He advocated the establishment of a large number of orc shelters in the alliance countries, and the costs were shared among the alliance countries.
Who can sit on this table and not be a master?
As soon as Terenas Tuqiong saw the words, all the kings immediately understood this guy's plan.
Among the six human kingdoms, the Kingdom of Lordaeron is the richest, and they can afford to build and maintain orc shelters.
The equally wealthy Kul Tiras could afford this huge fee, but Daelin was unwilling to pay this completely unnecessary amount of money for the damn orcs.
The poor Stromgard and Gilneas, who had always been self-sufficient, were also unwilling to contribute money. As soon as the issue was raised, it triggered an unprecedented war of words, and the conference venue turned into a vegetable market.
There was a lot of saliva and leather boots flying at the scene, and the kings with different positions at each station were so noisy that they even rolled up their sleeves and fought hand-to-hand on the spot, trying to convince others with their "reasons".
Kyrgyz, who was already pursuing isolationism, saw that Terenas had no intention of changing his decision, and left the meeting angrily on the spot, deciding to withdraw from this alliance full of compromise and calculation. The Kingdom of Stromgard followed suit not to be outdone.
The somewhat hot-headed Delin realized that something was wrong when he saw Solas and Jean planning to leave angrily. He originally wanted to calm down and persuade both parties to take a step back.
But Terenas added fuel to the fire at this time and couldn't wait to announce that countries that withdraw from the alliance have no right to participate in the distribution of post-war benefits.
Now Dai Lin doesn't work anymore. Everyone has been busy working on the relationship with money and people for several years. In the end, all the benefits were taken away by you, Lordaeron, but everyone has to bear the blame?
Kael'thas was also unwilling to pay to build a shelter for the orcs who should have been executed. When Gilneas and Stromgard expressed their stance, he also expressed his withdrawal from the alliance in a tactful tone.
Seeing the situation develop to this point, Daelin could no longer bear it. He stood up suddenly and issued an ultimatum to Terenas, who finally realized that the situation was out of control and began to look uneasy.
If the Alliance finally decides to spare the orcs, Kul Tiras will sever all ties with the Alliance of Lordaeron.
Because someone's eagerness for success was too obvious, this supposedly joyful alliance meeting ended unhappy.
In the end, Kul Tiras' statement failed to sway Terenas' ambition, and he gritted his teeth and insisted on his opinion.
Dai Lin has always said that if he lets it out, he will never swallow it back.
At this point, the alliance jointly established by the seven human nations fell apart, and Lordaeron became the sole proprietor.
Lordaeron gained the land of Alterac, but at the same time had to shoulder most of the costs of maintaining orc shelters.
Dalaran, Wildhammer dwarves, Bronzebeard dwarves, and gnomes all contributed only their share.
The Kingdom of Stormwind is in dire straits and has no money to support Lordaeron. Instead, it needs Lordaeron to provide financial and material assistance to rebuild the dilapidated Stormwind City.
Terenas made a calculation after the meeting, and his old, rosy face suddenly turned livid. He suddenly felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
After the treasure land of Hillsbrad is developed, it should be able to restore a lot of blood to Lordaeron.
But without the trade income with Kul Tiras, Stromgard and Kyrgyz, and counting the consumption of orc shelters, Lordaeron's financial income is still not optimistic, which makes Terenas feel sad. I haven't slept well for several days.
Daelin leaned weakly on the sofa and sighed: "Terenas was once a wise and virtuous king. Why has he become like this now?"
Due to their different identities, it was difficult for Sarlayan and Valeela to take up this topic.
While Daelin could judge Terenas as the king of Kul Tiras, Valeera didn't want to get in trouble for her loud mouth.
If today's conversation is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.
"never mind……"
Dailin sat upright on the sofa again and waved his hands irritably: "What has happened, no matter how worried you are, it won't change anything. Let's talk about the prophecy of Kul Tiras."
Valeera: "Prophecy?"
After sorting out his emotions, Dai Lin's expression gradually calmed down.
"Yes, the prophecy that existed as early as the establishment of Kul Tiras is related to Drust."
After years of peace, most people in Kul Tiras have long forgotten the existence of Drust.
Those things that happened in Drustvar are just ancient legends to them, and are not even regarded as history that actually happened.
Only a few descendants of the family who personally experienced that tragic war can barely get a glimpse of it from the family's collection of books and the essays of their ancestors.
Dai Lin: "The words used in the prophecy are rather obscure, and they are in the ancient Drust language. Let me simply translate them."
"On the day when the two moons meet, the breath of life will spread across the earth, bringing seeds of hope to end strife."
"When the Son of the Dragon arrives, all wounds will be healed, and the traumatized earth will usher in new life."
"Hmm..." Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: "Son of the Dragon? Newborn?"
'...You're not talking about me, are you? '(To be continued)
