"I agree!" King Varian of Stormwind was the first to speak.
He had long disliked King Beech.
“I agree too,” Jaina followed suit.
Dwarves, gnomes, werewolves, and night elves echoed in unison.
As for the tribal members, they simply watched coldly.
King Beech suddenly stared intently at Zhou Yi. "It's you! Caesar! You're also a member of the Burning Legion! Stop pretending, you bear the mark of the Burning Legion! I have proof!"
Zhou Yi revealed a playful smile. "Oh? What evidence?"
"I have a recording stone inside me!"
The soldier quickly pulled a crystal from King Beech's body.
Inputting energy, the recording stone emitted a beam of light, showing the scene of Zhou Yi's secret plot with King Bich.
Everyone looked at the Book of Changes.
If you say that the Duke is a minion of the Burning Legion, they will be the first to disbelieve it.
A hero who slays the Burning Legion's commander is a villain? That's laughable.
But everyone still wanted to hear the Duke's explanation.
Zhou Yi shrugged: "Hehe! I didn't know your plan at the time. In order not to alert you, I could only pretend to agree. As it turns out, I greatly underestimated your evil. You actually dared to let Archimonde in!"
King Beech roared, "Then how do you explain the Burning Legion mark on your body?"
“Mark? What mark? That was a disguise, meant to deceive you. If anyone doesn’t believe me, they can check anytime!” Zhou Yi said with an air of righteousness.
"I believe in His Majesty the Duke!"
"I believe it too!"
The members of the alliance echoed each other's sentiments.
Thrall, representing the Horde faction, suddenly said, "To prove the Duke's innocence, I can conduct the examination on behalf of everyone."
“That’s right, we still need to check it out, after all, the Burning Legion is full of tricks.” Kael’thas, the Blood Elf leader, chuckled.
King Varian suddenly drew his longsword and held it horizontally in front of Thrall, saying coldly, "Your Grace is not someone you can inspect as you please."
Zhou Yi waved his hand dismissively.
"Let him investigate."
King Wa snorted coldly and sheathed his longsword.
Sal approached Zhou Yi, chanting incantations. A disc-shaped energy ring appeared in his palm, emanating light that fell upon Zhou Yi.
A moment later, he put away the energy ring and shook his head.
"The Duke has no mark of the Burning Legion on him."
Zhou Yi's lips curled up. "Your Majesty, do you have anything else to say?"
"Impossible!" King Beech's eyes turned bloodshot.
"Absolutely impossible!"
"Caesar! Varian! Jaina! You are all traitors! Lord Archimonde will never let you get away with this!"
Everyone looked puzzled.
Jaina said calmly, "Archimonde has already been killed by the Duke."
King Beech's eyes widened, and he suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, "Hahaha! Caesar! You will follow in my footsteps! The Holy Light will abandon you, and this world will be destroyed..."
Zhou Yi approached the king, blocking the view of others with his body. A jade-green crystal appeared in his palm, which he waved in front of the king's eyes. He spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear: "Is this what you mean?"
The king's eyes widened: "You..."
"Drag him away!" Zhou Yi waved his hand.
The soldiers immediately dragged away the roaring King Beech.
"A country cannot be without a ruler for a day. I suggest that Duke Caesar be elected as the King of Beech!" King Václav declared loudly.
I second that!
"agree!"
The Alliance NPCs echoed the sentiment once again.
"Heh, the Alliance prides itself on freedom and equality. I don't think it's appropriate to decide who becomes the monarch in just a few words," the Blood Elf leader chuckled.
“That’s right, it was too hasty. To prevent this tragedy from happening again, all citizens should be allowed to vote and elect a king of high moral character and who loves peace,” Sal said.
The Horde does not want the Alliance to have a monarch with such prestige and power.
With the Burning Legion no longer a threat, clashes between the two sides are bound to resume.
The orcs were severely damaged, putting their tribe at a disadvantage.
King Varian said calmly, "The affairs of the Alliance are none of your tribe's business!"
At this moment, the Blue Dragon King spoke up: "I think we should put this matter aside for now and convene all neutral forces to discuss it together, what do you think?"
The Alliance NPC leader immediately frowned.
The Dragon Legion was originally neutral, but now it wants to get involved.
Zhou Yi waved his hand and laughed, "Thank you all for your kindness, but I have no intention of becoming king."
Everyone was shocked by these words.
That's a throne above millions of people, and the Duke doesn't even want it?
The tribal chiefs suddenly felt ashamed.
It seems I was judging others by my own petty standards.
Zhou Yi continued, "Since he is the King of Bich, why not let the people of Bich decide?"
After a moment of silence, everyone nodded.
The alliance leaders all hesitated to speak.
Zhou Yi gave them a reassuring look.
What commands an alliance is never the throne, but absolute power.
Furthermore, by this time, the Queen should have already taken action, right?
[Ding! The siege has ended. Victorious: Star Legion. Defeat: Anti-Star Alliance Legion!]
[The Lord of Shabak and all members are requested to claim their rewards in the Royal Palace within 24 hours!]
