There was nothing much to say about the scene of Duque leading everyone to retreat.
Duque didn't plan on fighting Gul 'dan while he was surrounded by the Beastmen. After the Windrunner wreaked havoc on the Beastmen, Duque opened a portal and retreated.
If they didn't leave now, once Gul 'dan arrived, no one would be able to leave.
The only thing Duque could use now was Gul 'dan's contempt for him, or rather, Gul' dan's scheme to screw Orgrim over.
Early the next morning, Aurelia appeared outside the Silvermoon Council's meeting hall.
"Apologies, General Windrunner. The Silvermoon Council is currently in its daily meeting. You can't enter! You barged into the council last time, and many council members are furious at your reckless and vulgar actions. " The guard captain blocked Aurelia. The huge kite shield in his hand was dazzling in Aurelia's eyes.
Aurelia did her best to suppress her emotions. "Eversong Forest has been invaded. From yesterday afternoon until this morning, we lost a total of seven teams. The highest level of requests for help have filled the entire communication room, and now you're telling me not to disturb that damned daily meeting?! We're in a state of war! "
"But …"
Without another word, Aurelia took out the thing that Duque had asked her to bring last night.
The head of a troll.
It spun in the air, its long black hair that was braided into dozens of strange braids dancing in the air. The sunlight shone on its long fangs, and it crashed into the kite shield that blocked all information from the outside world. Finally, it landed at the feet of the guard captain.
The air froze for a moment.
Every single one of the twelve guards stared at the head.
In the next moment, Aurelia opened a bag and revealed the thing inside.
It was a beautiful magic crystal nameplate that marked the identity of a High Elf soldier. If the nameplate was taken off, it would only mean one thing — death in battle!
There were many nameplates, but the most shocking thing was that among the blood-stained nameplates, the guard captain found many nameplates of platoon leaders and even senior captains.
The faces of all the guards suddenly changed.
Aurelia once again broke into the Silver Moon Council that she was familiar with and hated.
When the chairman of the parliament saw Aurelia's heroic and dignified face, he was immediately enraged. "For the sake of Silverymoon City, can you stop interrupting the sacred meeting?!"
"I'm really sorry!" No matter how good-tempered Aurelia was, when she saw these high and mighty councilors who did not care about worldly affairs, the anger in her heart rose to her throat. "Longsong Forest has been invaded. Are you only willing to stop the 'sacred' meeting and face the coming of the war when the tribe reaches this' sacred 'gate?!"
Everyone could hear the bitter irony in Aurelia's words.
"Impossible!" A great lord suddenly stood up and pointed a finger at Aurelia, his tone abnormally harsh, "No one can survive after passing through those runestones."
"Huh? No? "Aurelia raised her long golden eyebrows." Are you sure? Are you talking about this kind of runestone? "
Aurelia took out a piece of runestone the size of two palms from her bag, raised her hand, and threw it at the great lord.
The lifespan of the high elves was quite long, and many of the councilors present were mages who had set up the runestones. It was precisely because of the great achievement of firmly protecting Cuel Salas that they could transcend ordinary people and become noble beings who dared to challenge the king and were superior to all beings.
Now, their pride, their reliance, had vanished into thin air in the blink of an eye.
Every councilor's heart beat violently, and they almost forgot to breathe.
"Great Lord Moria, your territory seems to be in the southern part of the Longsong Forest, right? Do you want to find a high balcony and see if there are flames rising in your territory? "
Alleria's words made Highlord Moria jump up as if his buttocks had been slapped by a whip.
Ignoring the clown, Aurelia looked straight at the Sun King.
"I don't want to repeat the warning I've given you. I just want to tell you a fact — there is no doubt that the trolls have entered our forest, trampled our land, and slaughtered our people. The orcs that I've mentioned are now following them. They don't have the agility and stealth of the trolls, but they have strong bodies and their numbers are like locusts. They are planning to destroy our home together with the trolls! "
Aurelia panted heavily, and her chest rose and fell rapidly. The whole hall was very, very quiet, and only her heavy breathing could be heard.
Aurelia raised her head, and there was endless pain and heartache on her face. "Finally, I just want to ask, are you all damned deaf and blind? Do you want all the rangers at the border to die in battle? Do you want all the elves in the Longsong Forest to be slaughtered? Do you want to wait until you face the ferocious faces of the trolls and smell their nauseating breath? Only then are you willing to admit that a full-scale war has come to us, the high elves … "
Aurelia's voice was very melodious. As she pleaded, she opened the blood-stained bag again, and countless nameplates fell out and fell on the shiny white tiles, making clanking sounds.
Whether it was the king, the speaker, or the councilors, the pupils of all the elves suddenly shrank, and they stared at the nameplates for a long time, speechless.
They looked at the fresh troll head presented by the guard captain.
The Sun King, Anastrian Sunstrider, burst out with a loud roar.
"Damn —" This time, the Sun King's outburst was not because of Aurelia.
The elven king slapped the troll's head hard, and it flew into the air. The head did not have a chance to fall to the ground, because in mid-air, it had been instantly incinerated by the Sun King's destructive flames.
The high-temperature embers scattered on the floor of the Silvermoon Council's meeting hall.
The Sun King furrowed his brows, and his eyes that were muddy most of the time became as sharp as a sword.
"The trolls dare to invade our home?" Anastrian was completely enraged. "They dare to do this?"
He looked up, and his expression was like that of a furious brown bear. "We will let them use their lives and blood to wash away their sins! Gather our warriors, gather our rangers, we will launch an all-out attack on the trolls, drive them out of our forest, and use their heads to build our new border! "
