Warcraft Eternal Tree - Chapter 583

c583 Duke O’Brien

Grom’s announcement quickly attracted the attention of the orcs. Although the orcs did not plant spies in human countries because they were easily recognizable, there would always be spies in any world. Yu Fei’s reputation in the human country was soon known to the orcs.

This time, Yu Fei became a thorn in the eyes of the orcs. The title of human national hero was built on the corpses of 300,000 orcs. For the orcs, Yu Fei was the executioner – although they did more when treating humans.

Naturally, the orcs also came up with the idea of ​​killing Yu Fei, the human national hero, and completely destroying the human fighting spirit. However, Yu Fei’s strength was too strong. Even Grom, who was one of the strongest among the new orcs, could not get any benefits from Yu Fei. Therefore, this matter still needs to be considered for a long time, so it was temporarily suppressed by the orcs.

Yu Fei naturally didn’t know what the orcs thought. He was now in a happy distress.

If possible, Yu Fei really didn’t want to let in the refugees from the Falling Moon Kingdom at that time. Because this group of refugees was like a trigger, causing other residents in Xirik City to come back and ask to return to their homes.

Since the first batch of refugees was let in, it would be difficult to refuse the subsequent refugees. So, in just two or three days, Xirik City became bustling and no longer solemn as before when it was under complete military control. Although Grom’s Blade Storm caused a lot of damage to the city, Grom was mainly targeting several wizard towers in the city at that time. The destroyed houses were just incidental during the action, and not many were destroyed.

Those few houses were quickly rebuilt in the hands of the enthusiastic residents of Xirik City after returning to their hometown. Even Paramount commanded a part of the troops and participated in the reconstruction. However, the name used was naturally the order of Lord Earl O’Brien, because it would be a violation of military discipline to let the army do such things privately.

Paramount was kind, and such things would make Yu Fei’s popularity even higher. However, this brought some trouble to Yu Fei.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s troublesome, but it’s not a bad thing. It’s just that where Yu Fei lives, the residents of Xirik City always come to see Yu Fei in a black robe, and express their sincere gratitude and high respect.

If there are only one or two such people, Yu Fei will feel happy; if there are five or six, he will also feel happy and proud. But every day there are hundreds of people doing this in groups of three or five, which really makes Yu Fei a little annoyed.

Fortunately, three days later, Xirik City received an order from the Holy Lion Empire, which freed Yu Fei.

The order from the Empire is to let Paramount lead his Eighth Army to continue to garrison Xirik City to prevent the orcs from continuing to attack from here. The Kingdom of Falling Moon is a vassal kingdom of the Holy Lion Empire, and it is also a barrier for the Empire when facing the attack of the orcs, so a large number of troops are placed here.

As for the New Fourth Army, they were ordered to return to the Holy Imperial Capital with Yu Fei and escort the less than 30,000 orc captives at the same time. Paramount was only the commander of the Eighth Army, and it was obviously impossible for him to control two legions for a long time.

Yu Fei, who was bombarded with words of gratitude from the residents of Xirik City, was extremely happy to receive this magic message, and immediately set off with the New Fourth Army. It is worth mentioning that the temporary leader of the New Fourth Army has now become himself, after all, an army cannot do without a leader.

Compared with Yu Fei’s own speed on the Holy Giant Wolf, the speed of the New Fourth Army returning to the Holy Imperial Capital was much slower. Especially since they were escorting more than 20,000 orc captives, they would be surrounded wherever they passed. Fortunately, the Kingdom of Falling Moon was adjacent to the Holy Lion Empire, and the New Fourth Army returned to the South Holy Pass ten days later.

At the beginning, the night elves broke in from the West Holy Pass outside the Holy Imperial Capital, but Yu Fei had never seen the South Holy Pass. When passing by the South Holy Pass, Yu Fei also deliberately observed whether there was the space transfer array that existed in the West Holy Pass at that time. However, it may be that only the West Holy Pass has that thing, and Yu Fei did not see it in the South Holy Pass.

It is obviously impossible for more than 20,000 orc captives and more than 100,000 New Fourth Army to enter the Holy Imperial Capital directly. They were temporarily placed in the area within the Four Holy Passes and outside the Imperial Capital. It is said that the Holy Lion Empire will hold a prisoner offering ceremony in the Imperial Capital next, and high-level officials from other human countries will come to watch the ceremony.

It turns out that this alien country also engages in face-saving projects. When Yu Fei received this notice, this was the first thought that popped into his mind. However, this has nothing to do with Yu Fei, so he rested in a manor arranged for him with peace of mind, waiting for the so-called prisoner offering day to come.

The Holy Lion Empire did not let Yu Fei wait for long. The third day after he and the New Fourth Army returned to the outside of the Holy Imperial Capital was the prisoner offering day.

Under the guidance of the officers arranged by the Holy Lion Empire, Yu Fei and some of the remaining officers of the New Fourth Army, symbolically brought dozens of orcs to the south gate of the Holy Imperial Capital.

This place is now crowded with people. Almost half of the residents of the Holy Imperial Capital came here to see what the orcs who brought great crisis to humans look like, and even more to see what Yu Fei, who has been called the strongest magician of mankind, looks like.

Yu Fei had not even approached the South Gate when he heard a series of voices. Listening carefully, most of these voices were actually calling for Earl O’Brien or Grand Mage O’Brien, which made Yu Fei a little stunned.

Although he knew that he should have a high reputation among humans, he did not expect that most of the people watching the captive offering ceremony would call his name. This scene of fans lining the streets to welcome him gave him the feeling of a celebrity on tour.

However, no one could see Yu Fei’s expression under the cover of the hood, so in the eyes of the residents of the Holy Imperial Capital who participated in the captive offering ceremony, Grand Mage O’Brien, who was walking in the front in a black robe, was still walking slowly and steadily amid everyone’s cheers, looking quite powerful.

A large open space was cleared in front of the city gate. The residents of the Imperial Capital who visited the captive offering ceremony were excluded from this open space, and the Holy Emperor and other high-level officials of human countries were waiting here.

Yu Fei was surprised when he saw the Holy Emperor from afar. He didn’t expect that this guy would come to greet him in person. It seemed that this guy took him seriously.

Forgive Yu Fei for always calling the emperor of the largest human empire this guy. When the night elves attacked the Holy Imperial Capital, they trampled on the dignity of the Holy Emperor. Yu Fei really couldn’t respect the Holy Emperor at all.

Besides, to be precise, the Holy Emperor was still the enemy of the night elves, so there was no need to care about the title.

As Yu Fei moved forward, the cheers of the people became louder and louder. It was not until the Holy Emperor took a few steps forward to greet Yu Fei with a smile on his face that the onlookers stopped cheering and watched what His Majesty the Emperor had to say.

The Holy Emperor did not care about the officers of the New Fourth Army and the orc captives they brought with them, but first faced Yu Fei. This was a gesture, indicating that compared with the orc captives, the Holy Emperor valued Yu Fei, a strong man who could bring more orc captives, more.

“Earl O’Brien, you have made great contributions to the empire and are a hero of mankind. In recognition of your contributions, I have decided to grant you the title of Duke – from now on, you are the Duke of O’Brien.”

To Yu Fei’s surprise, the Holy Emperor actually said this directly and granted him the title of Duke. This is the highest level among the nobles. Above it is the so-called Grand Duke, but this is generally a title for the Grand Dukes of the principalities and the heads of the Saint Childe family. In fact, it is just a title of Duke.
