Located on the northern shore of Lordaeron Lake, the giant white city of Lordaeron was undoubtedly a very beautiful city. It was still a distance away from the Alterac Mountains. Looking from the west to the east, Rotterdam looked like a typical city with mountains on one side and water on the other. In the distance was a snow-capped mountain, on the right was a clear lake that would not freeze in winter, and on the left was a vast grassland.
The atmosphere of the triumphant ceremony had already spread throughout the entire city.
Since it hadn't truly been invaded, the few destroyed buildings had long since been perfectly repaired.
There were colorful flags and beautiful ornaments that the Rotterdam Kingdom had collected from all over the place.
Not a single beggar could be seen on the street. These days, even when they were shopping, people were dressed in festive costumes. The people of Lordaeron regarded it as a disgrace to wear the same outfit for two days in a row.
Due to the arrival of the dignitaries from various countries, as well as the gathering of a large number of high-ranking officers, the lingua franca with different accents could be heard everywhere in Rotterdam City.
At the Teleportation Portal in the north of the city, the mages of the Rotterdam Kingdom who were in charge of the Teleportation Portal were a little bored.
"I heard that we'll only be busiest on the day of the victory ceremony."
"Why?"
"The Dalajan academic mages are not willing to waste a few days dealing with the nobles. They think it will reduce their time for experiments."
"Where's Master Antonidas?"
"He and a few Kirin Tor councilors have already arrived."
"Where are the elves with their noses in the sky?"
"We're here too."
"Then there shouldn't be any big shots, right?"
"No, I heard that Sir Duke Marcus and Sir Lothar haven't arrived yet."
Just as the two Earth Magicians on duty were chatting, one of them suddenly changed his expression. "Wait! There is a teleportation request. "
"Isn't it just a request? Where is it? Let me take a look." The mage came over. "No problem! A teleportation request from Stormwind City. The password is correct, just open it. "
The first mage looked like he was about to cry. "No, look at the mana required!"
"My King of Magic! Isn't Stormwind Sir Marcus the only one who can teleport? How could there be so much demand? There's a team of a hundred Radiant Moon Magi!? "
"What should we do?"
"Let's open a small one first. Let them send someone over to confirm."
"Wait! Our magic array! Oh no, it opened by itself — "
While the mages of the Rotterdam Kingdom were in a frenzy, they were horrified to find that the Magic Crystal, which was supposed to release mana after they activated it, ignored their control and poured mana into the portal on its own. The valuable Magic Crystal dimmed at an alarming rate.
Then, right in front of the group of Rotterdam mages, a huge Teleportation Portal opened on its own.
If this were a time of war, this would be considered an invasion.
A portal that was even larger and rounder than the one the Dalajan used to send a thousand-man assault team was opened.
For a moment, the mages of the Rotterdam raised their staffs and prepared to fight.
However, the two Stormwind Knights that came out of the portal looked at each other in their most perfect posture and announced their names according to international etiquette.
"The Supreme Commander of the Lordaeron Alliance, His Excellency Anduin Lothar and Deputy Commander Duke Marcus have arrived!"
Impeccable etiquette officer, impeccable military posture.
Just as more than 20 mages and hundreds of Rotterdam Kingdom's guards rushed over after hearing the news, two rows of tall horses came out in a single file. The Stormwind Royal Knights in formal attire spread out to the left and right as soon as they came out. They straightened their backs and unsheathed their swords. The tip of their swords faced the sky and their palms faced the lower abdomen, allowing the light swords to flash between their eyebrows.
Yes, the standard appearance of a big shot.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with it!
However, every mage of the Rotterdam Kingdom felt as if they were going to spit blood on the wall!
F * ck!
Which bastard is so extravagant to teleport horses here!?
Is your magic mentor a part-time Warrior?
Did anyone ever tell you that it takes three times as much mana to teleport a horse as it does to an adult?
Even if the Stormwind Kingdom has money, don't drag the Rotterdam Kingdom down with you!
The mages who were guarding the Teleportation Portal really had the urge to curse in front of everyone. That's right. According to the Teleportation Agreement, the mana required to open the Teleportation Portal was split equally between the two sides. This was to increase the stability of the Teleportation Portal and make it fairer.
However …
The amount of magical crystals consumed just now was equivalent to a year's worth of Rotterdam Kingdom's North Array!
If it weren't for Lothar and Marcus, who had a terrifying background, the captain of the mages would probably have run up and scolded him.
Lothar, who was riding a horse, appeared. While letting the horse move forward slowly, Lothar said to Duque, "Your follower is really impressive. He can teleport so accurately from such a long distance, and it doesn't feel shaky at all. I still remember the first time Medivh played with Teleportation, I vomited yesterday's dinner when he asked me to try it. "
Due to the fact that it was Storm who opened the Teleportation Portal on their own, the etiquette officer of the Rotterdam Kingdom ran over in a panic and said a bunch of welcoming words. However, Lothar noticed that the mages of the Rotterdam Kingdom looked as if their parents had died.
"What's wrong with them?" Lothar asked Duque "softly".
"No, I guess they're heartbroken because the Teleportation Portal cost them too many magical crystals." Duque pursed his lips, and then opened his palm. As if dismissing a beggar, he threw out a large pile of magical crystals from his storage bag. "I've just used up the Magic Crystals of the Rotterdam Kingdom. I'm sorry, these are for you. If there's more, just take it as a tip. "
Hmph! Do you think the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom are poor people who have never seen the world?
The leader of the mages didn't even bother to pick them up at first. In the next second, he suddenly gasped and stared at the magical crystals that Duque had thrown on the ground, unable to move his eyes away.
In this era, the Magical Red Jade could store the most Magic Power. However, the Magic Power contained in the items that Duque had thrown out was clearly far beyond the standard that the Magical Red Jade should have. Such highly concentrated crystals could not be produced at all, and could only be found in ancient ruins.
The official name was unknown, but the mages liked to call it [Arcane Light].
Such an item was simply priceless in the market, and any one of them would be enough for a Radiant Moon Mage to help.
Now, Duque actually threw out dozens of them casually!?!
Damn it, how rich is this Duke Marcus!?!
The leader of the mages, who had been pretending to be aloof just now, suddenly pounced on those magical crystals like a dog. He was not the only one. The other mages also pounced on them without any manners at all.
That scene made Lothar's eyelids twitch. He suddenly had a feeling that Duque seemed to have come this time … to cause trouble!?!
