Lord Darius praised his own wit. As a close comrade-in-arms of King Genn of Gilneas, he knew that some people could be offended and some could not be offended.

Stromgarde is a strong competitor of Gilneas. Although Stromgarde's population is slightly less than that of Gilneas, its army is more powerful and it produces a lot of war horses. What Gilneas lacks is war horses and has to rely on importing war horses from Arathi Highlands. Therefore, although there is competition between the two, there is also trade cooperation.

Although Stormwind was pinned to the ground by the orcs and its people moved north, as the second-ranked country in human society, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Its elite are still there, with many top masters. Moreover, Lothar is now the commander-in-chief of the Alliance, and Gilneas does not want to offend Lothar.

There is only the small country of Alterac, which is a perfect target for bullying. It has only a few hundred thousand people. Although it produces a lot of alpine war horses of excellent quality, the output is small. Apart from providing them to the Alpine Knights of its own country, only a small number of war horses are traded, and they were also robbed by Lordaeron.

There is no good trade relationship, and because of his temperament, his king cannot stand the King of Alterac's way of doing business. So if he has been offended, then so be it. Are you afraid that they will send troops?

The representative of Alterac is Count Alex of the Barov family. He is just an earl, and although he is happy to join the alliance, after all, it is nice to be under the shade of a big tree, his own king is distressed about the losses of his own army, and he has no way to stop the departure date of the elite Eagle Knights in the country!

Alex was furious. In his opinion, the king was unwise. He agreed to join the alliance under the pressure of the situation, so he should send troops and contribute money within his ability.

Everyone knows that Alterac is weak, so just do your best. If you are reluctant to send troops like you are now, you will fall into a disadvantageous position. Not only will you be hated by other members of the Alliance, but you will still have to send troops in the end. It is a thankless task. Why bother!

Count Alex Barov didn't want to argue in the military tent, so he said, "Don't worry, Marshal Lothar, the Eagle Knights of Alterac will arrive in Nanhai Town within two days!"

Because of Alex's forbearance, the matter was over, and Losa felt relieved.

Including the Mountain Eagle Knights, he now has five knight orders!

Stormwind Kingdom is now ruled by the Iron Horse Brotherhood led by Bolvar, the First Knights under Galen of Stromgarde, the Royal Knights of Lordaeron led by Mograine, and the Knights of Kul Tiras!

This is a powerful force. In a head-on battle, the individual combat capabilities of human infantry and orcs are very different. The infantry cannot stop the orcs from advancing, but human knights can divide and annihilate the orcs!

Every human knight starts out as a knight's squire and has to learn riding, fighting, sword skills, aristocratic etiquette, etc. It can be said that becoming a knight appointed by a king means becoming a junior aristocrat!

These powerful knights rode on war horses that were 1.78 meters tall and were covered in thick knight armor. Even the strong orcs could not withstand the impact of the galloping horses!

The only downside is that it costs money!

"Sir Lothar, and everyone else!"

The voice of Archbishop Alonsos came, interrupting Garin's thoughts.

"The Holy Light Church has also joined the alliance, but we will not only accompany the army as battlefield priests, our church will also provide an armed force!"

Here it comes, here it comes, the highlight is here. It was because of the news from the Diocese of Lordaeron that Garin came back early and did not continue to go out and wander around.

"Stratholme Cathedral and the White City Cathedral have jointly developed new uses for the Holy Light."

The archbishop smiled gently and thought of Aragon of the Holy White City. The path of Holy Light has successors!

"Different from the Path of Holy Light of the priest, this is a brand new branch. We named it Paladin."

The Archbishop paused, then continued.

"Paladin not only has a devout belief in the Holy Light, but also possesses skilled combat skills. Their training includes prayers and healing with the Holy Light, using the power of the Holy Light to fight and bless their comrades! They possess the ability to combine military and spiritual beliefs!"

No one was too surprised by this news. After all, it has only been a year since the Paladin appeared. However, as the top leaders of the human race, everyone was well-informed and had known about the existence of this profession for a long time.

"Is the Paladin so powerful?"

However, everyone had only heard about it, and the only people who had seen it were people from Stormwind Kingdom and Lordaeron. Darius was a pure warrior, and as a soldier he was straightforward and asked questions directly.

At this time, Jialin stood up and raised his hand under the gaze of everyone. A golden light flashed in his hand, and a mysterious light spot appeared around Jialin. Then a magical power was transmitted to everyone in the military tent.

The divine power formed a holy seal above everyone's heads and then disappeared.

"King's blessing!"

Admiral Dai Lin looked at his hands in surprise, then clasped them together: "What a magical profession! I feel my strength has increased!"

“It’s increased by about one tenth!”

The whole audience was in an uproar, praising the power of the Paladin. At the same time, everyone looked at Garin with admiration again!

After waiting for Garin to finish his demonstration, the Archbishop spoke again: "Garin is the most powerful of the first generation of Paladins. Under his leadership and that of Bishop Aragon, the potential of this brand new profession of Paladins has been tapped. He is a pioneer of Holy Light! His contribution is invaluable!"

"I have proposed to King Terenas that we should form a group of paladins to protect the religion, which will be affiliated with the Diocese of Lordaeron!"

"King Terenas agreed to my proposal, and the name is the Knights of the Silver Hand! However, because it is difficult to change the job of a Paladin, this knight order currently has only 300 official members!"

The Silver Hand was quietly established at the first generals' meeting of the Alliance!

Although the number of people is small, the official members are all paladins, and no one will underestimate the power of this knightly order!

After experiencing the increased power of the Paladin's blessing, Daelin developed a strong interest in this profession, which reminded him of Drustvar in the Kul Tiras Islands!

The Waycrest family that lived there appears to have founded an organization called the Order of the Ashes.

Maybe there will be a chance to form a Paladin Order for Kul Tiras!

This is the moment that Garen has been waiting for. The Lordaeron Diocese, the leader of the Church of the Holy Light, has established the Silver Hand under the leadership of the Archbishop. Then the Arathi Diocese can follow suit and form the Arathi Diocese, which will be affiliated with the Knights of Stromgarde!
