In any case, as long as the Alleria is satisfied, it's fine. Looking at the emerald green eyes that turned into crescents, Duke knew that he had finally passed. Unconsciously, Duke touched the place where he was kissed. The touch, which was softer than rose petals, seemed to linger on his forehead, lingering and leaving a lingering fragrance.
Alleria seemed to know that she and Duke had taken over the show. She returned to her serious mode.
"Captain Lothar, my men are the best scouts and sentinels. If the enemy is on land, I can ensure that the troops will receive the message when they are two days away from the enemy."
Lothar smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your reminder. Unfortunately, our enemies are now on the other side of the sea. We can only rely on Admiral Daelin's reconnaissance fleet and Deputy Commander Edmund's Naga to obtain intelligence. Perhaps in the upcoming war, you and your people can only be used as archers for the time being, but we will ensure your safety."
"No place on the battlefield is absolutely safe." Alleria said seriously.
"I know. You'll find out when you and your people get there." Lothar glanced at Duke and smiled mysteriously: "Before that, please wait patiently for the arrival of the reconnaissance report."
Alleria soon realized what Lothar's smile meant.
First is the combat position.
That was the second highest position on the two hills near the port of Southshore. The firing holes made of solid bricks and stones were quite strong, and even human artillery fire with a smaller caliber could not penetrate it at once. Not to mention ordinary crossbows, bows and arrows and other long-range attacks.
This position seemed to have accurately calculated the range of the elven ranger's bows and arrows. Almost the entire distance of 300 meters from the port dock to the foot of the mountain was within the elven range of the range of the elven ranger's arrows.
The security is also fully guaranteed. The highest place is naturally the ballista, catapult and cannon. The elven archers are the second layer, the third layer below is the human javelin soldiers, and below that are two layers of spearmen. This three-dimensional defense, unless the bottom three layers are completely broken, there is no danger to the elven archers at all.
Even if there is danger, the specially set up retreat route along the mountain and a spacious cave that runs through the entire hill from the front mountain to the back mountain are enough for the elven rangers to evacuate the entire position within a few minutes.
Then there was the camp.
As if Duke had expected the elves to come, he reserved a quiet valley for them. In the valley, there were not only a lot of towering trees, but also a small clear mountain spring.
In addition, there are many fruit trees. It is the harvest season now, and the fruits all over the valley are tempting the elves.
This is simply the ranger's favorite.
"Sister, you said that the other party is just a 15-year-old kid, but I don't see how he is young. He even knows clearly what you love most. Hehe! You tried your best this time to mobilize almost the entire Windrunner family. After all, it was all for your little lover, right? No one would say anything to you about this kind of thing, so why do you have to cover it up? Be frank." Sylvanas teased her own eldest sister.
"Sister, we are sisters, and I am almost a thousand years old. I am not a child. I don't think there is anything to be ashamed of. Humans are short-lived, and if you like someone, you should cherish this brief time. But I hope that in the future, if you have something to say, you can just tell me directly. There is no need to bring up some world crisis or righteousness or anything like that." Lirath bowed respectfully to her elder sister.
If she and Duke really had something going on, that would be fine. Among the high elves, such things were very casual, and even quite a number of high elf nobles led a decadent life.
She had always been a clean person, but after what happened, even her sisters no longer believed in her judgment of the overall situation. But Alleria had no way to refute it.
The result... The result...
"You are going too far!" Alleria burst into tears.
Now it was Sylvanas and Lirath' turn to be dumbfounded.
Is there really nothing going on between my elder sister and that human boy?
Over there, Duke is messy.
While he was showing off to Alleria, High Lord Mograine came to his door before nightfall.
Duke was originally interested in making friends with Mograine, after all, he was a well-known figure in later generations and a hero with a strong influence in the history of Azeroth. As Duke was willing to make friends, the two soon called each other by their first names.
Who would have thought that after Mograine pretended to talk about the situation for a while, he actually avoided the subject and said he would visit Lordaeron more often when he had time.
Finally, the truth was revealed.
"Ah! Duke, in fact, if you can accomplish something great as the deputy commander of the Alliance of Lordaeron this time, you can marry any beautiful princess. Why bother to find a high elf whose living habits are completely different from yours as your wife? A true noble must have noble blood to be recognized by other nobles. Elves are not bad as lovers. Ah, yes, Princess Calia likes your rose very much. She asked me to tell her that she is looking forward to your better masterpiece."
Damn, are you telling me that the Princess of Lordaeron is waiting for me?
Does this mean that I have to put on a more gorgeous front in front of the princess than I did to Alleria today, oh no, a more perfect gift?
At this moment, Duke's heart was filled with tears. He kept hating himself, why did I pretend to be cool in front of Princess Calia that night! ?
Not wanting to say anything, Duke decided that once the Second Dark Gate War is over, he will return to his hometown, oh no, return to Karazhan to concentrate on practicing magic and not see anyone!
Originally Duke ordered that no one should be seen.
But in the evening, Duke's System AI and Duke's two guards became alert at the same time.
"Who!?" Two voices, a man and a woman, said in unison.
The woman was naturally Duke's maid Vanessa. She lifted up the right side of her maid skirt in a flash, revealing a pair of white thighs and a row of neatly tied throwing knives on her thighs. If she disagreed with something, she would probably use the rogue's ultimate move Knife Fan to throw more than a dozen sharp blades at any suspicious target.
The man was Duke's new guard, Gavinrad, one of the first five paladins. History took a turning point here. Gavinrad, a paladin from Stormwind and a warrior under Lothar, was originally going to become a member of the Knights of the Silver Hand, but Llane and Lothar arranged him to be Duke's guard.
At this moment, he raised his hammer.
At this moment, two long, perfect legs hung down from the eaves, and Sylvanas' voice rang out.
"Hey, Duke, did you know that my elder sister was in jail for three months not long ago?"
