Veronara strolls in the all-encompassing tunnel of Maraton, thinking about whether Nathanos's decision was correct.

Will it be too anxious to attack Shadow Teeth Castle? Or... too risky?

The Dark Ranger has seen the fortress. On the Burning Mumura on the southern cliff of Silver Pine Forest, Shadow Teeth Castle stands like a black shadow, looking across from the Wall of Gilnis, facing the North Current Coast. Veronara guessed that Nathanos might have to use the undead fleet of the Burning Shadow Fortress.

"Veronara?" Belmont's voice sounded behind him. As a spy with powerful assassination skills, Belmont always likes to appear behind others, and Veronara has become accustomed to it.

"Is there anything wrong?" she asked angrily, obviously the other party disturbed her thoughts.

"I brought the command of the Withered Master, who asked you to command the battle of Shadow Tooth Castle, and the Dark Rangers' troops followed you to fight."

"What?" said the pale-faced elf, surprised. "The situation on the tribe and the alliance has not yet been determined. My ranger is good at shooting. If there is a conflict, we can provide fire support. Why do you want me to go? Don't Nathanos?"

"I'm not here to discuss with you." Belmont lowered his voice. "If you have any questions, you can go directly to the master."

"I'll go now."

Sar sat cross-legged on the chief's throne. Not long after, the news from Theramore was delivered to him. Sar trusted Gianna very much. She did not have any hypocritical greetings among human nobles in her letter, but after reading the words on the parchment, the chief angrily tore the whole letter to pieces. As a shaman, he rarely got angry. Although Gianna had already said it tactfully enough, she told Sar not to have any fantasies about Stormwind City. Humans in the Elvin Forest face the problem of the prince being robbed by the black dragon, and now they are unable to take care of themselves. Due to this, Theramore would not send reinforcements, and could only provide support in materials.

Advisor Itrig gave Durotan a gloomy expression. "Are we going to fight alone?"

"No, no matter what, the night elves have agreed that they will send a legion of thousands of people."

"Then why are you so worried?"

"Because the commander of the United Army has not yet reached the conclusion!" Thrall sighed, holding a small piece of the letter in his hand.

The situation is very clear. Both the tribe and the night elves want their own people to be the leader of the joint army. Thrall knows that the night elves sending such powerful military power is tantamount to telling the tribe that one of them should be competent for this position.

Thrall told the old consultant around him what he thought.

Itrig frowned, "I cannot agree with my opinion, Chief. Indeed, who will be the leader of the United Army is a matter of trust. Both sides will definitely elect Mingxiao's glory. But I think we were at a disadvantage from the beginning. The night elves sent such a powerful army not to compete for the position of command, but to show us military strength."

"You're right, but not only that." Thrall stood up and walked to Itrig. Although Itrig was from the Blackstone clan, Thrall was taller than him. The chief gently put his hand on Itrig's shoulder. "The night elves have a reason we cannot refute to fight for the position of commander."

“What is it?”

"They have participated in the Battle of Quicksand, they have experience in dealing with the Amquira people, and... they have a hero who commands the Battle of Quicksand."

Itrig took a deep breath, and anything Thrall said proved that the night elves had enough weight to make their people the commander of the joint army. "But how to say, the chief, we must fight for it. There are also countless warriors in the tribe who have been through many battles. We cannot lose to the elves, and the commander can decide the marching route and formulate tactics."

"I have decided to have Valoc Sarufal as the representative of the tribal army, but Vandal Deer Helmet is indeed the best candidate for the commander of the United Army. He has a high prestige and is a great druid who can call on the druids of the Senario parliament."

"But he is an arrogant guy," the consultant reminded. This sentence successfully shakes Thrall. "He will never treat the warriors of the tribe well. Maybe he will only let our soldiers carry supplies to them. In his eyes, orcs, taurens, and trolls are useless."

The chief sighed and returned to the throne, looking very tired.

"In comparison, Sarufal will never be disrespectful or partial to either side," continued Itrig. "I believe Brox's brother, and I believe his command ability will never lose to Deer Helmet."

Brooks' brother!

Thrall had a flash of inspiration, and he jumped up suddenly, reached out to hug Etrig, and couldn't help laughing: "You're right, Etrig. He is Brox's brother, Brox's brother!"

Following that annoying order, Veronara was waiting at the command tower of the Burial Fortress, waiting for Nathanos to summon her instructions. If she suddenly broke in when the Withered One issued an order to Tatsel, she would definitely be driven out.

"Master let you in." A terrifying guard looked at Veronara Lasuevos indifferently and trained them well - they didn't know what flattery when they met with a higher-ranking commander.

When Veronara came to Nathanos, Tatsel was about to leave. The two nodded to each other, and they might become comrades-in-arms fighting side by side.

"Tell me." The wither spoke.

"I think you should know the purpose of my coming here, the Withering One." Veronara called him as usual, Nathanos would not care about this, and the Dark Ranger was also clear. "The Dark Ranger is still needed here," she added.

“The Eastern Kingdoms also need it.”

"That's different..." Veronara curled her lips, "I have a lot of problems..."

"I know." Nathanos interrupted her, and his eyes told Veronara that he knew what she wanted to ask: "The geographical location of Shadow Teeth Castle is very important. It is near the sea and our fleet is useful. It is close to the high wall of Gilnis. I plan to install spies in this kingdom. In addition to the above two points, we can seize Shadow Teeth Castle, and we can plunder Lordaeron's territory to the north and glimpse into Ultratown. The strategic value here is very important, do you understand?"

"I get it, but...in that's the case, why don't you go to command this battle yourself? Why send me to it, not Lasovios and the others?"

"The situation in Kalimdo may change at any time, and I will stay and deal with unnecessary trouble. As for why it is you, I think you will understand after you go." Nathanos said and looked at her, thinking that there was no problem with Veronara.

"Wait." Veronara stopped the Withered One who was about to leave.

"What else is there?"
