When Regen climbed out of the mine, the People's Army was still cleaning the battlefield. The two scouts on guard outside recognized this cinder-covered guy and hurriedly led him to Grian.
The paladin seemed to be seriously injured. His entire upper body was tightly wrapped in bandages. He was out of breath even after speaking a few words. It was the guard next to him who introduced the battle situation in Yuexi Town. After listening to it, Regan couldn't help but sigh.
Although the main force of Defias was basically crippled in this battle, the People's Army also suffered a tragic victory. Even Grian was almost beaten to death by a hammer. When asked about Van Cleef, Regen only said that the other party was cunning and used his men to hold him back.
He then jumped into the water and escaped. Everyone felt very sorry after hearing this.
Regan did not reveal the news that the king had been kidnapped to Theramore to Grian. After all, there were many people talking at this time. Firstly, he was afraid that the news would spread back to Stormwind City and cause panic. Secondly, there might be someone behind the scenes within the People's Army.
The spy was sent; and at this time, Gerian was seriously injured, so he had no choice but to go to Theramore by himself. So the next day, Regen said goodbye to Gerian, and flew to Menai on a gryphon borrowed from the People's Army.

——The explosion of the Well of Eternity thousands of years ago divided the world of Azeroth into three parts: Azeroth in the east, Kalimdor in the west, and Northrend in the north. The three continents do not border each other.
, and there is a vast endless sea in the middle, so the only way to travel between the continents is by ships and airships; although it is also possible to reach the destination through the teleportation circle or the wizard's teleportation gate, but after all, the cost is expensive.
A little money is probably enough to see what the teleportation array looks like, so taking a boat is very suitable for his current pocket capacity.
After several hours of wind blowing on the back of a gryphon, Regan finally arrived at Menethil Port. This famous port was built in the great era of Lordaeron and bears the surname of a dynasty ruler full of glory and majesty.
Named, it is located in the wetland where the Dragonmaw Orcs and the Red Dragon Queen fought fiercely. The port has two fixed routes, one is to Theramore Port in Kalimdor, and the other is to Howling Gap in Northrend.

Regan took the griffon to the flight management office in front of the hotel to register. Because alliance officials strictly review flying vehicles every year, this is also a decision made by the Kingdom of Stormwind to facilitate transportation in various places. Therefore, no matter how remote the area is, it is basically
There will be a flight management office in each city to provide travelers with griffins for transportation. The person in charge of registration is a female dwarf named Saida. She enthusiastically pointed out to Regen which route to Theramore, and told him that the standard fare is
How much, so as not to be deceived by those cunning crew members. Regan smiled and thanked the dwarves for their kindness, and boarded the ship bound for Kalimdor.
The winds on the Endless Sea are extremely windy, and it usually takes about two days for a ship to complete its voyage on a clear day, not to mention that in this windy summer, Reagan has already stayed on the passenger ship named "Virgin" for the third day.
, I heard from the crew that they have just passed the Maelstrom, and there are still two days of travel to Kalimdor. Although the time has been delayed a lot, Regan has become familiar with Captain Togre. In fact, his nickname is "Rat Guts"
The guy is not as wretched as expected, but a very humorous gentleman, and is also very knowledgeable. He is just cautious and never takes risks when sailing, so he is nicknamed rat guts by his colleagues; Reagan has been talking to him these days
During the conversation, I learned a lot about the anecdotes and customs of the Western Continent.
That day, Regan and Togre were playing chess. Suddenly, the ship shook, followed by the roar of cannons. The two quickly threw down the chessboard and jumped out of the cabin. Only when they got outside did they find that their ship was surrounded by three unidentified ships.
"Could it be a pirate?" Regan was about to draw out his long sword, but his hand was held down by Togre. Captain Mouse Gull slowly shook his head. Regan had no choice but to put the sword away, making up his mind that if the pirate was injured,
People themselves must go on a killing spree
"Crews on the ship, we are the Theramore Navy. There is no malicious intention in this trip," a man who looked like an officer on the opposite ship shouted, "I just hope that your captain will come out and we can discuss something."
"What nonsense! Raphael, ask your people to get out of the way of the ship. If you scare my men, I won't guarantee that I will have food and fresh water for you." Togre said coldly while standing on the side of the ship.
The officer named Raphael immediately blushed and ordered his soldiers to get the ship away. He said to Togre apologetically: "I'm so sorry, Captain. I didn't expect this to be your ship. I
Tell these bastards to get lost immediately!"
"Okay, let's get a few people on board to carry food. I don't want my original subordinates to starve to death." Togre left the next sentence and returned to the captain's cabin. Regen touched his head and followed in.
"Your Majesty, Captain, these people used to be civilian crew members? How come they know you too?" Reagan asked in confusion.
"It's a long story. They have never done passenger transportation. They know me because I used to be a captain in the navy. After I retired two years ago, I bought this ship for civilian transportation."
"Then why do these navies ask for food and fresh water from passing passenger ships? Theramore is not far from here. Is it possible that Ms. Jaina is still stingy with supplies to the navy?" Reagan said half-jokingly
"It's not that they are stingy, it's that they simply can't give it. They are all rebels in Theramore now," Togre sighed.
"The story begins with the Second War. At that time, the tribal chief Thrall led his people to cross the Endless Sea from Azeroth westward with the intention of settling in Kalimdor. However, the ruler of Theramore at that time still wore
Lin. General Prodmoore and Lord Daelin once participated in the war against the orcs. They believed that all orcs were barbaric and cruel people, so they used all the power of Theramore Island to prevent the orcs from landing."
"However, the general's daughter, Miss Jaina, believed that humans should unite with the orcs to deal with the threat of the Burning Legion, and signed a peace agreement with Thrall, sparing no effort to help the orcs gain a foothold in Kalimdor; in the last moment
During the battle, Theramore's army was attacked by ogres and orcs from both sides, and General Daelin was also killed in the rebellion. So Miss Jaina took the opportunity to lower most of the resistance, allowing the orcs to successfully reach Londu Tower.
you"
Togre took a sip of water and continued, "But Miss Jaina's almost patricide aroused the anger of some officers. These people encouraged a group of troops who criticized Miss Jaina to leave Theramore. Some of them
People built northern castles in the Barrens to specifically hunt orcs; others occupied some abandoned towers in Dustwallow Swamp to trap and kill tribal adventurers; while the remaining navy wandered around the nearby waters to ambush orc ships, or
Looking for opportunities to go ashore to encourage the Theramore defenders to join them, so these troops sometimes do not receive supplies for months and can only ask for some food and fresh water from passing alliance ships."
Regen shook his head regretfully: "It's a pity that these good men were forced to become pirates. People say that Lady Jaina's talents are inferior to men. I think it is exaggerated. To force her own army to rebel just to seek support from foreign races is absolutely unacceptable.
Not the work of a wise man.”
"Having said that, if it were not for the alliance with the orcs and elves in the battle of Hyjal, humans would not be able to resist the Burning Legion alone. At least on this point, Miss Jaina is far-sighted," Captain Mouse Gut sighed slightly.
As he spoke, the ship had docked, and Togre patted Regan on the shoulder: "Kristen, a soldier's intuition tells me that you came to this place of right and wrong with a mission. Although our time together was short,
I think you are a young man with excellent judgment; so on this island, don’t completely trust your own eyes. In addition, when encountering the rebels, I hope you can be merciful. These children are just like us, and they all hate the Alliance.
With unparalleled loyalty”
Regan smiled and said: "I will do this even if you don't tell me. I still want to treat these warriors to a drink."
There was a seaman on the ship who had already set up the gangway. Legian held the ladder and walked off the passenger ship. He and Gillian said goodbye to each other with a smile.
