Chapter 196 The Road Ahead (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)

On the ice, loud singing echoed.

"With the glory of Emperor Thoradin, we headed south and planted the blue lion flag on the Valley of the Kings. It is a symbol of the great inheritance of mankind... We entrust our destiny to you, the golden lion flag... Ah, Golden lion, you are a symbol of dignity and nobility, you are a knight who symbolizes honor... Ah, Stormwind City, you are the fortress of pioneers, the bridgehead of human civilization, no matter what the enemy is, you can defeat it... ..."

This song was originally just an unknown ditty thousands of years ago, and then it became one of the military songs of the Stormwind Kingdom without knowing it, and it would basically be played during every military training interval. But at this moment, it is sung by the warriors who lost the kingdom, but there is a lot of sadness and emotion. For every warrior of the Stormwind Kingdom, only when the Stormwind City is truly recaptured and the Elwynn Forest is restored, can they be worthy of this song. The first military song!

More than half a year of suffering has been full of bitterness along the way. The soldiers of the Stormwind Kingdom watered every inch of land from the Redridge Mountains to the Elwynn Forest and then to Stormwind City with blood and tears.

Some people lost their houses and fields, some friends who had been friends for many years, some lost their wives and children, and what was worse than this was that they lost their own capital. From now on, they are bereaved dogs in the eyes of others.

However, no matter how powerful the orcs are, they are not depressed.

For they had a great King Llane who accompanied them till the end and evacuated together.

They have a great commander Anduin who encourages them and guides them all the time.

They also have a great hero, Duke, who possesses unpredictable abilities and creates miracles one after another.

Tonight, all sufferings came to an end temporarily, and from the next dawn, they firmly believed that under the leadership of these heroes, they would finally win the war against the orcs!

"Lord Marcus! Thank you!"

"You are our benefactor, our hope—"

"Thank you, I can finally live to see my wife and children."

As Stormwind faded far away on the horizon, the soldiers began to let out excited cries of survival after the catastrophe. The farther away you are from the soaring flames of Stormwind City, the more aggressive you will be.

If the sound at the beginning was just the trickling spring water in the mountains and dense forests, then in the end it has become a passionate and surging sea, and the sound waves are like big waves raised by a hurricane, rushing towards us...

Duke, Ryan, Anduin, Bolvar and other high-level storm officials stood side by side at the forefront of the ice ship. Only at this moment did they truly understand what is called a mountain roar and tsunami. Luoluo cheers and pays tribute to you, this shocking scene will definitely be unforgettable for a long time!

It's not a military parade, it's not an affectation on the scene, but a sincere thank you.

King Lane smiled: "Duke, make yourself a high platform for the soldiers to see you."

Duke is a bit embarrassing, isn't this wife showing off?

"Your Majesty, this..."

Ryan smiled and patted the big piece of ice that froze the head of the black hand, and then looked at the huge tribal battle flag: "I have these two things. What's more, I never care about the prestige of a real hero overriding Above me. You see, I was never the most prestigious person in the military."

Ryan is very generous.

Anduin also encouraged Duke: "Young man, Ryan is going to make you a hard worker. If you don't collect some interest first, you will be miserable for a long time."

Bovar also smiled and nodded to Duke.

Duke didn't hesitate any longer, a huge icy prism under his feet supported Duke, and he rose straight up.

Seeing the figure of Duke wearing a robe, a huge sound wave rose into the sky. Suddenly, the dark clouds dispersed, and the quiet moonlight swayed on the ice surface, and there was a soft light. It seemed that the moon heard the cheers and also Stealthily stick your head out and take a look!

"Long live Duke Marcus—"

"Long live the great Stormkeeper—"

It is no exaggeration to say that Duke's blood boiled at this moment!

Suddenly, I felt that I had been busy for so long and prepared so hard, everything was worth it.

At this moment, the system prompt sounded.

"Congratulations to the host, your Stormwind Kingdom's reputation will always be worshiped. Even if you lose all your integrity in the future, the people of Stormwind will still trust you unconditionally. In that case, your integrity will be regarded as a state of 'hypocrisy'."

Hypocritical state? What the hell is this?

Duke didn't have time to think about it. He came down after receiving three waves of cheers from the soldiers.

Only then did Anduin ask: "What shall we do next? Your murlocs just drag us to South Sea Town?"

Duke laughed: "How is this possible. It is not easy to maintain this big ice ship, and the big waves in the deep sea will be a problem. It is summer now, and the high temperature can easily melt the ice."

Bovar's face turned a little bit bad: "Damn it, we have almost no food and fresh water, the ice cubes have melted, isn't it..."

Bolvar had already thought of the tragic picture of a group of people wearing armor and sinking into the sea.

Duke took out a simple chart and pointed to an island opposite Stormwind City: "Our destination is here."

Early the next morning, the iceship reached its destination. It was a small island of only five square kilometers. The biggest feature of the island is that it has a fresh water spring. The sea merchants who have traveled between Stormwind City and Kul Tiras all the year round know this nameless island. When drinking water is in an emergency, most of them will choose to stop the boat here to replenish water.

But now, enough bread for fifty thousand people to feed for half a month has been prepared here early.

With both feet on the land, the soldiers burst into cheers again.

Duke shrugged: "Okay, the next thing is to wait for the fleet to send us to South Sea Town."

Under the shade of several trees, the high-level leaders of the Stormwind Kingdom began to discuss the future policies of the kingdom.

"I'm going to go to Lordaeron. I want to unite all human kingdoms, dwarves, and high elves to form a huge alliance to fight against the invasion of orcs." Ryan said what he had been thinking for a long time.

Lordaeron is located in the northeast region of the Eastern Kingdoms continent. It is the proudest home of the Kingdom of Lordaeron. In fact, at this point in time, the Kingdom of Lordaeron is the most powerful among the seven human kingdoms. Rich Lordaeron has the most expansive fields and raises the largest population among the Seven Kingdoms.

There was a saying back then, "I would rather go to Lordaeron to be a baron than be an earl in Stromgarde." This mentality well reflects the richness of the land.

"Then I'll stay in Nanhai Town to train soldiers?" Anduin said.

"No, you go to Lordaeron with your Majesty." Duke rejected Lothar's proposal.
