Volume 3: Tides of Darkness Chapter 164: Our MVP has defected
"Hey, what's wrong with your hair?" Murphy asked with a deliberately surprised expression.
"Don't mention it. I had a fight with a damn black dragon and it burned my hair." Morgan Lisa said with a gloomy look on her face.
"Do you need my help in dealing with the black dragon? And Varian, I think he would be happy to help."
"No need. I'm afraid you can't help me with this matter. As for Varian, he still has to deal with the orcs."
"I don't think the orcs are anything to be feared. As long as the Alliance unites, we can definitely defeat them. Don't you agree, Varian?"
Varian immediately showed a proud expression, "Hehe, they are just a group of orcs. As long as I lead the army to fight, they will definitely not return."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are so confident. Do you have any special experience with orcs?"
"Those orcs are indeed barbaric and brutal, fierce and strong, but they lack wisdom, and do not understand tactics and strategy. They only know how to charge mindlessly. As long as we are fully prepared and use our tactical advantages, it is not difficult to defeat them. Let me tell you, I encountered a hundred thousand people in the Dark Swamp..."
The two chatted for a few minutes, and seeing that Murphy had no intention of leaving, Morgan Lisa had to leave first.
Varian stopped talking immediately after Morgan Lisa left.
"Thanks Aidan, that woman is really troublesome." He said with a headache, "I would rather face the orc army than face the entanglement of that woman."
Murphy thought, is it really that exaggerated? After all, she is a beauty. But Varian is probably too young to understand the things of adults.
"You know what, I think you two are a good match, and she's not bad looking either."
"Humph, I won't think about these things now. Before the threat of the orcs is resolved, I won't waste time on these boring things. Besides, even if I want to save my kingdom, my own strength is enough. How can I rely on such a boring method as marriage?
Speaking of orcs , I received intelligence this morning that the orc army is about to launch an attack on our world. I need your support to persuade my father to send out the army.
"Of course, we are sworn brothers. I will definitely help you, but don't worry. I think someone will provide you with an opportunity today."
At nine o'clock, the meeting finally began as envoys from various countries entered the venue.
As usual, the Kingdom of Ryan read an opening speech first, which was nothing more than polite words about the need for unity and friendship within the alliance in the face of crisis.
King Llane had just finished his opening remarks and was about to start the meeting. Before Varian could speak , Morgan Lisa stood up first.
"Before discussing today's meeting, there is someone I would like to introduce. She brings a very important message. Perhaps everyone present has heard of her name. She is the conqueror of demons, the protector of the world, the most powerful magician in history, and the mother of the Guardian Medivh - Lady Magna Aegwynn!"
Bang! The door of the conference room was violently slammed open, and the silver-haired Aegwynn strode in.
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to her appearance.
Although she is nearly a thousand years old, the silver-haired Aegwynn is still stunningly beautiful. Time has left no trace on her. She still looks young, like a girl. Only her eyes that radiate arcane light, the wisdom and power contained in them make people realize that she is a legendary figure.
King Llane and Duke Lothar stood up and saluted. King Llane, Duke Lothar and Medivh were childhood friends. When they were young, the two had met Aegwynn and called her "Auntie".
However, looking at Aegwynn, who was as young as a girl, and then looking at each other, who had become middle-aged uncles, the two felt somewhat awkward.
However, Aegwynn did not care about these mundane etiquettes. She just waved her hand casually and walked to the conference table.
She glanced at everyone present with a serious look.
"I bring terrible news to you all. My son, the Guardian Medivh - has fallen."
What! Everyone exclaimed.
The fight is about to start, and you tell us that our strongest main force has defected? This is a bit scary.
Originally, everyone was still in the mood to watch the fun, no matter how much trouble there was, there would always be guardians to back them up, and if all countries united, nothing would get out of hand.
But now even the people who were backing us up have turned against us. How can we just sit back and watch the fun?
Aegwynn ignored everyone's complicated feelings and just told her what happened.
Aegwynn (Guardian of the Celestial Realm): "It is unknown when the soul of the demon king Sargeras possessed Medivh, constantly bewitching and corrupting him.
Now Medivh's mind has been completely controlled by the Demon King. He has completely become our enemy. The orcs came to this world because of him. The Dark Portal is about to open, and the orc army is about to arrive in this world. You must be prepared, everyone. A tide of darkness is about to submerge this world. Only by uniting, the Alliance will have a chance of winning. "
"Lady Aegwynn, please don't jump to any conclusions yet. Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding. I think we should take a long-term view."
One envoy still wanted to delay time. After all, if they really admitted this matter, then the countries in the alliance would have the responsibility and obligation to support the Storm Kingdom.
Aegwynn snorted coldly, "That's enough, you short-sighted mortals. The horn of destruction has already sounded, and the armies of demons and orcs are about to arrive, yet you are still scheming against each other for your own interests. I have protected this world for thousands of years and have seen too many dark and terrifying things, but nothing is more threatening to this world than your inner selfish desires."
Varian (Prince of Stormwind): "Don't be angry with Lady Aegwynn. We have been prepared for this crisis. I have already issued a call to adventurers. I and the powerful adventurers will crush those orcs. You just need to wait and watch the show."
Aegwynn was speechless after hearing this, and thought to herself, where do you get such confidence from, little brat? When I was fighting demons everywhere, your father wasn't even born yet.
What powerful adventurer? What kind of adventurer can defeat the orc army and the demon king? Those money-hungry idiots can only fight a few goblins and kill a few ogres.
Aegwynn had experienced countless adventures in the past, and she had seen many so-called "adventurers". They were nothing more than a group of mercenaries, explorers, tomb robbers and the like. What abilities could they have?
Aegwynn (Astral Guardian): "You have no idea what you are talking about, child."
Varian (Storm Prince): "I know what I'm talking about. I've seen a lot of darkness and a lot of terrible things. I dare say more than most of you here. Maybe not as much as you've seen, but I also understand the cruel truth hidden in this world.
I once led adventurers to defeat an army of 100,000 orcs, and I will win again this time. In fact, my people have already told me that the orc army is about to launch an attack and the Dark Portal will open again in three days. "
