Grian Storman has been worried about what is brewing in the Western Wilderness for this period of time... Especially three days ago, when he saw the daughter of the great stonemason engineer, Stormwind City founder, and former leader of the Defia Brotherhood, his anxiety became even worse!

He will never forget the terrible little girl wearing a black tight leather jacket, short black hair and hiding her face behind a red face towel at that time, especially the other person's terrible look...

That Vanessa Van Cliff looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was vicious and cruel. A blade enchanted with evil shadow power instantly killed and injured more than a dozen Yuexi Town militiamen who were injuring him... In the end, he was able to escape calmly from his old paladin, which made him feel very tricky and worried!

If the other party is allowed to wander in this western wilderness, the future will definitely be a great enemy of the Storm Kingdom, just like her father Edwin Van Cliff!

Even...it's even more terrifying...

Because, the new Difia Brotherhood, which was revived by the little girl's hand, has increasingly threatened the lives and property safety of the people in the western wilderness! Especially the other party's slogan "kill the nobles, divide the land, pay less taxes" that made Grien feel palpitations!

As a veteran who has been on the battlefield and has been exposed to many people's livelihood issues, Grian Storman certainly knows the general power of this slogan and the serious harm that can be caused if the Difia Brotherhood is allowed to develop like this!

Whenever we think of the horror effects these words can bring and the things we have discovered recently, there is enough evidence that more and more refugees and townspeople who have gone bankrupt due to heavy taxes in the kingdom, as well as a small number of farmers and small farmers in the lower class are frequently in contact with members of the New Defia Brotherhood.

In the past two days, as more and more information accumulates on his desk, he almost often cannot eat well and sleep well. Even when he sleeps at night, he will occasionally be awakened by the storm outside the window!

You know, he, Grian Stowman, also has manors and fields in the western wilderness, and there are many...

So, without thinking too much, Grien knew that he must be the exploiting class and the object of being divided in the slogan of the New Defia Brotherhood. He would definitely not be wrong.

In short, whether it is for the peace and stability of the western wilderness, or for the prosperity and harmony of the Storm Kingdom, or for him, Grien Stormann, who was not inexplicably cut off his head and robbed his legacy in his sleep, he must give the thugs of the new Difia Brotherhood a good look!

And Grian, who knew his personal power was too thin in front of the organized Difia Brotherhood and the thugs with increasingly large numbers, decided to form a Western Wilderness People's Army to defend their western wilderness, defend their homes, and defend their property!

So, since I met Vanessa three days ago and lost her troops and generals, Grian Storman finally decided to gather the industrialists and rich peasants in the western wilderness and those who were unwilling to join the Difia Brotherhood to expand the Yuexi Town militia organization, which originally had only dozens of people!

This time, he will directly arm them and train them to the Western People's Army with a population of about 2,000, in order to defend and maintain the security of this important granary of the Storm Kingdom and to target the increasingly obvious threat to the New Difia Brotherhood!

Of course, although Grian Storman is a powerful old paladin and a not-so-small nobleman in the Storm Kingdom,... the fact that a random army is formed, even if it is just a local militia organization, it is definitely not something that can be established by building it.

Because, even if it is just a militia, it is a serious large-scale army, not a guard of some merchants, nor is it a private thug armed force.

If they were to do whatever they wanted without the report of the Storm Kingdom, maybe before they could train to fight against the Difia Brotherhood, the few regular troops left in Storm City would probably kill him first and wipe out Grien Stormman as a rebel!

It is precisely because of this consideration that on the day when the Western Wilderness People's Army is about to be established, Grian Storman specially invited the temporary mayor and Western Wilderness Government Officer of Yuexi Town, a Storm Kingdom Council has recently been transferred to the position of an old nobleman who came here to supervise food tax work.

Now, when the Storm Kingdom is using troops to the Fire Alliance in the Outer and the North, they are fighting on both sides and paying attention to logistics! Therefore, this is why a noble MP was specially sent to Yuexi Town to supervise food tax payment and strive to appease the western wilderness.

After all, in the entire Storm Kingdom, except for the small number of farms and grain output in the Alvin Forest, there are only the western wilderness with the largest number of farms and mines here!

It can be said that the west is indeed an important area for maintaining the finances of the Storm Kingdom! This is also the fundamental reason why the Storm Kingdom hopes that it can continue to maintain stability. Before the Difia Brotherhood really causes a big trouble, it is reluctant to clear the place to prevent too much damage.

"Knight Grien..."

"Look, the warriors you have recruited are in place now... and I may have some important things later. In addition... I saw that the girls were already a little impatient to wait. It would be bad for the garlands in their hands for a long time, so... can we prepare to start the ceremony?"

Duke Lescova took a few deep breaths, looked at the old paladin beside him wearing a gray-white unmarked plate armor and carrying a standard warhammer of the Silver Hand Knights behind him, and urged the old guy beside him with a little complaint.

Originally, he didn't want to worry about the formation of a militia and was too lazy to care about it. After all, he was just to supervise food taxation, and other things that were not oily and water had nothing to do with him! Moreover, after the war in the foreign land or north ended, he could return to Stormwind City to continue his life as a drunken and dreamy congressman, and no longer had to worry about these hard-working things in the remote areas of the western wilderness.

However, because someone had specially reminded him before: it was above the Storm Kingdom, and I hope that Yuexi Town can maintain stability in a self-sufficient manner... But now, there is such a veteran who is willing to come and take on this thankless and unlucky thing, so of course he just wanted it!

Anyway, he will definitely not donate money, and he will not do anything, in fact, except for a few words to be there, he will not give anything!

Whether he contributed his own capital or let the merchants or farmers in Yuexi Town share the same distribution, no matter what, he should not come to him! He is only responsible for saying a few words today, announcing the legitimacy of the Western People's Army and writing a report to the Kingdom Parliament, and the rest is nothing he has done.

“Um…”

Grian Storman did not reply immediately. He first pondered and looked around at the barracks of the reviewing hall. In the reviewing stand, except for himself, the Duke of Lescova and dozens of elite guards, only some representatives of farmers and merchants or families watched and witnessed here.

In addition, in the team of the town representatives, there were two blond girls holding garlands in their hands. They were prepared to present to the Duke of Lescova who was speaking later, and it was also part of the ceremony. Grien also knew the two, indeed, they were an old nobleman he knew and the family of the farmer's family. They could never be a member of the Difia Brotherhood.

Therefore, he felt that there seemed to be no problem with the security work in today's ceremony. With himself, there were so many soldiers on the periphery and the guards of the Duke, those from the Difia Brotherhood should not be able to get in, and it would be even more impossible to get into the place where their oath venue was held.

"Well... Lord Duke, you are ready to start speaking now!"

After nodding and finding that there were no mistakes around, Grian barely agreed to the proposal of the great nobleman from Stormwind City to start the ceremony early.

Originally, Grian himself was not willing to hold such a meaningless ceremony. If he wanted, he just needed to get the authorization documents from the kingdom.

However, in order to show his presence and the Storm Kingdom, this duke also needed to let most merchants, miners and farmers know the legal existence of their Western People's Army to facilitate future fundraising, food, etc., so he finally reluctantly agreed to this matter.

But somehow, Grien was still a little worried. He was afraid that the new Difia Brotherhood would send someone to make trouble here. Therefore, he had scanned all possible suspicious elements in the venue several times...

"Hey! Knight Griman...the two beautiful ladies over there seem to be two sisters? Do you know them? I don't know... can you introduce me to me later?"

The Duke of Lescova had long noticed that the two women there were wearing silk robes, holding garlands in their hands, with long golden hair hanging over their shoulders, and soft and white skin! They seemed very young, only eighteen to twenty years old, and... they seemed to look very similar, they should be two sisters?

“…”

"Dude, those two are from noble families, and they are also major landlords in the western wilderness... So, sorry, I really can't help you..."

Of course, Grien understood the meaning of this old lewd nobleman. After this duke came to Yuexi Town, he thought about those dirty things all day long! The other party either messed with those evening parties and lived a luxurious and lewd life, or was flirting with all kinds of things and ignored political affairs, and was not the same as him, the veteran! Therefore, he directly rejected the other party's request and was not willing to involve too much with such people.

"Oh? You don't seem to be willing to do it? Then forget it... I'll ask myself later!"

After saying that, the Duke of Lescova smiled proudly and walked openly to the speech platform in front of him that was temporarily built of wood.

“…”

At the same time, after seeing that the Duke had already stood on the wooden high platform, the two blond beauties holding garlands finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately greeted them with a smile.

They need to present the garlands they woven in advance to the Duke, and then the Duke will give another speech and announce the decision of the kingdom! After the speech is over, the warriors who have been recruited shout a few more slogans, so today's simple ceremony is probably about to end.

"This beautiful lady, I don't know... can I learn the names of you two?"

When one of the older mature beauties put the wreath on the Duke of Lescova and took two steps back, the little beauties, who were two years younger but had a more delicate and beautiful face, walked towards Lescova, and he, who had been impatient, asked with a smile.

Although this behavior is rude and does not conform to etiquette, Lescova believes that with his title of Duke, he believes that no one dares to say anything! Moreover, there should be no major problems with women from such small noble families even in such occasions.

"Duke... Please bow your head, you are too tall, I can't reach..."

The blonde beauty seemed reluctant to tell her name, and she seemed a little afraid of this lustful weird old man, so her voice sounded a little timid.

If she could get the other person, she might have put the garland on and ran away long ago!

However, the other party was much taller than her. When she stood up straight, she had no way to successfully put her wreath on the other party... And now, her sister's mission has been completed, and only she was left, who was made difficult by the Duke, which made her seem very wronged.

"If you don't tell me your name, then I will never bow my head!"

Looking at the other party with a smile, bullying and teasing this little beauty who is not very experienced in the world made Lescova feel fulfilled! He has already thought about it now. After knowing the other party’s name, after a day or two, he will quickly hold a grand dinner party and then give the other party an invitation. Of course, he must also include the more mature beauty sister behind the other party.

Then, as long as they are invited to his home, will they let him do whatever he wants?

Humph...

When Lescova thought of something wonderful, she couldn't help but smile and rub his specially trimmed chin beard.

"Ahem! Your Excellency Duke, it's getting late..."

Standing behind the high platform, Grian Storman, the upcoming commander of the Western People's Army, saw that the shameless old guy above actually teased the blonde girl on the high platform regardless of the ceremony procedures, and almost scared the other party to cry, he couldn't help but cough twice and reminded a duke in a low voice.

“…”

"How about it, my lady... As long as you tell me your name, I will bow my head and never make things difficult for you! This small request should not be too much, right?"

After turning his head slightly and glanced at the old paladin behind him from the corner of his eyes, Lescova continued to ask the little girl gently.

Whether it is the Paladin or the Western People's Army, it is not something that Duke Lescova wants to care about! Now he only wants to find out the name of this little girl and her sister. As for whether others have any objections, what does it have to do with him?

Lescova is the duke of the Storm Kingdom, and is also a member of the MP of the Storm Kingdom and the consul of the Western Wilderness. What he wants to do? Where does he need to look at the faces of these untouchables? He is so powerful and so willful now. What can these people do to him?!

"Duke, please don't do this... Everyone... are watching us..."

The little girl holding the Merry wreath now became either moving forward or retreating. She could only bit her lips with her fine white teeth in grievance, with tears in her eyes, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.

"It's okay, let's say our whispers and let them watch it. Don't worry, they won't and dare not have any objections?"

"How is it, beautiful lady, I don't want to make things difficult for you, I just want to know your name...and then, your mission can be completed! And I can continue my speech... Look, everyone seems to be a little impatient to wait, and you don't want to be criticized by so many people, right?"

Duke Lescova, who never gave up until he achieved his goal, still forced the other party in a gentle tone without any rush. He had a way to deal with such a little girl!

It is feasible to use his identity and power to make reasonable persecution. He believes that the other party will definitely surrender.

"Then... OK, OK..."

"Duke...you, lower your head first... When I put a garland on you, I will secretly tell you in your ear..."

Finally, when the tears in his eyes were almost about to fall, in the worried gaze of his sister behind him, this little girl, who was about eighteen years old, finally compromised under the pressure of the Duke of Lescova.

She had to nod her head in shame and anger, reluctantly agreeing to the other party's rude request.

"Of course! My lady, you can't cheat on me!"

Seeing that his goal was successfully achieved, Lescova quickly squinted her eyes with a smile, lowered her head towards the other party.

Then... he felt that the other party's white and slender arm held the beautiful wreath and gently placed it on his neck. At the same time, the other party's cheeks, which emitted a charming fragrance, carefully took this opportunity to get to his ears and said softly in a slight voice like a whisper between lovers:

"The one behind me...she is my sister...her name is Lana..."

The little girl's voice sounded soft, and when she heard Lescova's ears, he felt that her heart was about to melt. If it weren't for the fact that it was not easy to do something rude, he would probably have to reach out and hug the other person directly and play with him hard!

Of course, he believed that this thing would definitely be possible and would not let him wait too long.

Wait for the day after tomorrow...

No, just wait until tomorrow! Tomorrow night, he will hold a grand party and invite the two sisters, and then find some foiled guys, and then he will definitely achieve his goal. He believes that it will be possible!

"And my own name..."

"It's actually called...Vanessa...Van Cliff..."

When the word "hu" gently drilled into the Duke Lescova's ears, in an instant, before he could react, he could only feel a pain in his neck, and then the whole world turned...
