Walking down the long corridors of Stormstorm Fortress, Duke and Norton have no intention of admiring the ornate corridors. Although the murals in the corridor were so elaborate and the gold ornaments were so ornate, what they noticed was that every royal guard had changed into the same armor as the battle.

As the royal family's honor guard, each guard had a set of flower-shelf armor specially used for ceremonies. The exquisite carvings, the long cape, and the bright blue tassels on the helmet can attract attention, but Lothar, who knows the soldiers, knows that every restraint on the battlefield is the difference between life and death.

What's more, so much?

This set of armor is extremely concise. Not only is it easy to move, but even every pattern is just hand-painted with paint. It's not the kind of guipure carving that creates a "whirring" air flow when wielded. Purely for the sake of the final beauty, a torn robe was put on the outside of the armor.

The guards' eyes were full of vigilance, and there were even spare lanterns at their feet.

Storm Fortress - A two-in-one fortress of the royal palace and fortress.

Walking to the deepest part, Duke was shocked to find that in addition to the sixteen powerful Wang family guards, there were also two mages with strong magical fluctuations standing in front of the gate.

Sky Mage!

The dignified Sky Mage was also brought in to guard the door, so you can imagine how much Madison's hand stimulated Ryan.

Seeing Boval coming with Duke and Norton, one of the guards took out two picture scrolls, and one of the mages lightly touched the picture scroll, and immediately two holographic three-dimensional avatars appeared in mid-air.

That's the Duke's avatars!

In the bright light, the eight guards stared at Duke and Norton for a full five seconds with wide eyes, and then nodded their heads at the same time.

It was almost the moment the door opened.

Duke and the others heard Ryan and Anduin arguing.

"Soladin the Great, Anduin, are you allergic? We've known Medivan for more than 30 years. ”

"Just because we've known him for more than 30 years, we all think he's in danger? Now it's either the two of us, but the whole bodyguard and nobles are blind, crazy, and hallucinating. Or maybe something happened to Medivan!?" Anduin also blew his beard and glared at King Lane.

"Then we should have asked Medivan to understand, rather than suspect him like a vile villain here!" Ryan slammed his fist into the hard table.

"Did he answer your call?My Majesty!Did you respond to the King's token that summoned the Guardian in your magical message?In the past, no matter how much he traveled alone, there would have been a magical reply!" Anduin roared at the king mercilessly, like a lion propped up on a table with two paws.

At this time, an old man beside Ryan, who was also wearing a court mage robe, interjected: "There is no problem with the magic message, it is the guardian who refuses to respond." ”

Ryan was suddenly speechless, he sat down on his throne in a dejected manner, rubbing his brow in annoyance, and then he saw Duke and Norton leading into the Inner Palace Chamber under the guidance of Bolvar.

"Alright, Medivan's news, let it go until we confirm that something is wrong with him. Now, I know the wisdom of Master Norton. Can you, Anduin, tell me, why even Sir Marcus has been invited?"

Anduin Lothar also seemed to restrain his temper, and he glanced at Duke thoughtfully: "Because I found that the moment the black hourglass appeared, his reaction was the most special in the audience." ”

Ryan tightened his eyebrows: "Okay, let's ask again, who here at the moment, except for Duke, knows what this black hourglass is, does it symbolize anything?"

At the table, there were ten gray-haired old men. They were either recognized as wise men, or historians, or learned old mages, and then each of them looked at them intently again, and even Norton shook their heads.

The next moment, all eyes were on Duke's face.

Duke knew he was in big trouble.

That's right, he's the only one who knows the truth. If there is no mistake in the calculation, this is the hourglass of the countdown to the first opening of the Dark Gate and the orc invasion of Azeroth.

But, can he say?

Publicly accusing the king and the number one in the military world, the world's strongest mage, and Medivan, the guardian of Azeroth, has been taken over by the Burning Legion boss Sargeras?

One step ahead, you're Superman!

A hundred steps ahead, you are a demon and will be burned at the stake.

Before the crossing, in the Middle Ages, there were few such things? Copernicus came up with the 'heliocentric theory' and was burned alive. If he Duke is burned at the stake, then who can guarantee that he will not be discovered after his resurrection?

After pondering for a long time, Duke looked up and said in a deep voice, "The moment I saw the hourglass, I saw an illusion. ”

"Hallucinations, what hallucinations?"

At this moment, Duke invited the possession of the Oscar statuette.

In this moment, Duke is the Divine Stick!

His voice became ethereal: "Ominous! Death! and war!"

Everyone knows this hourglass evil door, but death and war, these two words are serious. How long has it been since there has been a real war on the mainland? In the north, there are conflicts with trolls every year. It was mostly skirmishes on the scale of a few dozen people. Smashing a sentry post or a border guard station being stormed or something.

But there really is no battle of more than a thousand people.

Duke came up with the word 'war'?

"The vision I saw was only for a brief moment, when the valiant Stormwind soldiers were smashed into meat sauce by a giant monster with a hammer larger than my body. ”

As soon as Duke finished speaking, an old man teased, "Are you sure you are not seeing your Naga?"

This is already targeted.

Duke instantly put it on the Brando's must-kill list, but his words were still humble: "I'm sorry, it's a giant monster with two hands and two legs just like you." But you can only go up to his waist. ”

Without further ado, Duke bowed to the king.

If it weren't for Medivan's insolent performance, this would have been a slanderous statement.

Ryan looked at Anduin, but Anduin spread his hand: "Look, I'm not the only one who has such a premonition of danger. ”

At this time, Duke Berval Vortagen also stepped forward: "Sorry, Your Majesty, I beg your pardon. ”

"You say. ”

"At that moment, I also sensed that Medivan had contempt and hostility towards His Majesty, and indeed towards the entire kingdom. ”
