Chapter 32 The Sun King
"Boom!"
"Idiot! Trash! You still have the face to come back!"
While the rangers were celebrating their victory, on the high platform of the altar in Zul'Aman, Zujin kicked Ekirson and Nalorak who were kneeling on the ground begging for mercy with a look of rage.
Zu'jin originally had great expectations for this attack on the high elves. Even if those long ears couldn't be injured, at least some resources should be snatched from them.
However, the final result was quite different from what he had imagined. Due to the rise of the high elf novas, not only were resources not seized, but also the own army suffered a major blow, and even the most important commander was captured alive.
This is a major blow to the Amani trolls, who are not very talented all the year round. Although Zujin always talks about killing these useless idiots, in fact, he still values these important combat power .
After a war, the loss of one Halraz will have a great impact on his future layout.
Ekilsson and Nalorak didn't dare to speak back at all, they could only lie on the ground and let Zujin vent his anger. This time the loss was indeed heavy, and they had nothing to say.
Jialai, a follower of the Dragon Eagle Spirit, was also silent at this time, keeping his mouth shut and daring not to intercede for the two of them, so he could only show them to be patient with his eyes.
The sorcery lord Malakas carefully observed Zujin's expression on the side, and after seeing that he finally calmed down a little, he made a suggestion in a low voice.
"Why don't we sneak into Tarquilin and rescue Halaz? With the procrastinating speed of the high elves, he should not be transported back to Silvermoon City by now."
Finally venting his anger, Zujin took a deep breath and sat on his throne, thinking about Malacath's proposal.
"No... that idiot Halaz can't be rescued. Now that we have been severely injured, we are seriously short of manpower. If the infiltration is discovered, I am afraid that we will suffer even greater losses..."
"Dakara! In the future, you will take over the position of Halraz, and the Spirit of the Lynx will be handed over to you!"
Zujin finally selected one of his most trusted warriors, Dakara, the most promising of the Amani trolls, to replace Halraz as the chief believer of the Lynx Spirit.
You must know that these primitive animal spirits are not gentle gods. If they don't get sacrifices for a period of time, they might attack the trolls instead.
A tall troll under the altar squatted down respectfully and saluted, "Yes! Great Zujin, Dakala will definitely dedicate everything to Amani!"
————————
If Charlemagne hears the name of the troll warrior that Zujin ordered, he will definitely recall it. He is the leader of the Amani troll who took over from Zujin after his death.
But at this time, Charlemagne was busy discussing the issue of the Sun King's reward with the returning mentor Li Reza.
This time Li Reza went to Silvermoon City to discuss the content of the reward ceremony with the Sun King. By the way, she also told Anasterian about Charlemagne's request.
"Haha, what a young elf with vigor, don't want high positions, money, or beauties. Did you actually choose an artifact to enhance your strength?"
Below the steps of the throne, a member of the Silvermoon Council—Darkhan Drahir smiled gently, and spoke to relieve Anasterian of his doubts.
"I have also heard about this eldest son of the Theron family. I heard that he had been in a daze until 10 years ago. In the fiasco 10 years ago, he lost his parents successively, and then he regained consciousness. As if he wanted to make up for the time wasted in the previous hundreds of years, he quickly became the leader of the ranger army at an incredible speed of progress."
"Of course, the careful guidance of General Li Reza, his mentor, is inevitable. However, this little guy can successfully enter the high-level in just ten years. This kind of talent is indeed very remarkable."
Sun King Anastrian stroked his long white beard and nodded in satisfaction.
"It is indeed the young hero of our Quel'dorei. It seems that the death of his parents hit him hard and also gave him the motivation to revenge."
"Hehe, it's more than that. I heard that Alleria Windrunner, the eldest daughter of General Li Reza, who is now accompanying Prince Kael'thas on his mission to the Kingdom of Stormwind, happens to be his lover."
A teasing smile appeared on Darkan's face at the right time, but this kind of smile didn't make people feel the meaning of ridicule.
Anastrian was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"I see, I see! No wonder he's not interested in beauties, so he already has his own heart, the eldest daughter of General Li Reza... I remember that she is also a very iconic beauty?"
There was a helpless smile on Li Reza's face, "Yes... Although there are some suspicions of boasting, Aurelia is indeed very outstanding in appearance. The relationship between the two of them has been progressing step by step in the past 10 years. It was only recently that the relationship was fully confirmed."
"Okay! Since our young warrior wants Thoridar, then I will satisfy him! This time his meritorious deeds are indeed enough, and capturing the troll leader alive is a feat that no one can do after the end of the troll war. .”
"Leanda!"
"Yes! What is Your Majesty's order?"
Hearing Anasterian's call, Lianda, who was standing by, hurriedly and respectfully responded.
"Go to the Sunwell on Quel'Danas Island and take out Thoridar Starsfury. This artifact handed down from the Highborne period will finally find its new owner again!"
"yes!"
Looking at Lianda's leaving figure, Li Reza was also sincerely proud of her proud disciple.
Unfortunately, like Alleria, he wants to become a far traveler to travel beyond Quel'Thalas...
After telling this to Anasterian, the Sun King didn't pay much attention to it, and waved his hand and said, "Young man! It's normal to like to wander around. He has traveled all over the world, since he is willing to join the traveler, let him go."
"Yes, thank you Your Majesty for your understanding."
Next, Anasterian still needs to discuss the specific arrangements for this award ceremony with the Silver Moon Council, and Li Reza retreated first with interest.
On the third day after she was teleported back to Tarquin to wait for Anasterian's notification, a Dragonhawk Knight who descended from the sky brought the latest order from the Sun King.
