Captain Jack of Azeroth

Chapter 262 Alonsus
Princess Calia agreed to Jack's proposal and boarded the Black Pearl. She also left with the Silver Hand Knights and Captain Thornby who had just arrived to meet them.

Jack activated the Black Pearl's automatic navigation system, and then gathered with Vereesa, Princess Jialiya, Roning and others to discuss.

"We now need to expand our forces as much as possible. Next, I will speed up the production of drones and centaur mounts. However, I hope that the Silver Hand can train some paladin apprentices. Whether dealing with the undead or demons, holy light is the most powerful weapon."

Princess Calia nodded, "I'll talk to them. Perhaps we can go to Light's Hope Chapel and recruit some more powerful priests and paladins."

Jack nodded. This was a good idea. It seemed that Princess Jia Liya was not completely useless. She still had some brains.

He took out the magic compass, silently chanted "Holy Light's Wish Chapel" in his mind, and immediately the magic needle started to move.

Jack took out the controller and set the destination to Light's Hope Chapel. The Black Pearl immediately turned around and flew eastward.

A few days later, the Black Pearl arrived at Light's Hope Chapel.

The paladins in the chapel suddenly became nervous; they had never seen a flying ship before.

Jack turned on the loudspeaker, "I am Jack Sparrow, everyone from Light's Hope Chapel, Princess Calia is also on board now, please make way for the Black Pearl to land."

The paladins were skeptical, but under the command of an old priest, they still made way for the space.

The Black Pearl landed, and Jack asked Rudd to escort Princess Calia off the ship.

The paladins immediately exclaimed, "It's Princess Jialiya."

"Meet Princess!"

"Your Highness!" The old pastor walked over quickly. "It's great to see you!"

Princess Jia Liya was pleasantly surprised to see the old priest, "Sir Fao, why are you here?"

When Jack heard the word Fao, he immediately looked at Veresa, "Is it the Fao I know?"

Vereesa nodded. "It's the Faol you know, Alonsus Faol."

Jack's eyes lit up. After Uther's death, he had to find a prestigious person to help Princess Calia. Alonsus Faol was just the right person. Not only was he prestigious, but he was also old. When Princess Calia was able to do so, Alonsus could abdicate and let her take over.

"Let's go and meet this Mr. Fao."

The two jumped off the Black Pearl, and Princess Calia immediately introduced them to Alonsus, "Sir Fao, these two are Captain Jack and his wife, Lady Windrunner."

Fao looked at the two curiously, "I have heard of your names for a long time."

Jack smiled and said, "I have long heard of your great name, Lord Faol. You have made great contributions to the Alliance. Now that the Kingdom of Lordaeron is at the point of life and death, we still need you to preside over the work."

Phao said in embarrassment: "Captain Jack, I want to help too. But my health has deteriorated recently. I can barely hold on here, but I'm afraid I won't live long if I leave here. I haven't thought about hiding my life, but the current situation does not allow me to die suddenly." Jack was stunned. No wonder there was no news of Phao during the undead disaster. It turned out that his body did not allow it.

"I understand, but we can find a way for you to help without leaving here."

Fao asked curiously, "I wonder what the solution is?"

Jack said, "Princess Jia Liya, please write a letter of appointment, appointing you as the acting commander of the Silver Hand, and then ask you to gather the Silver Hand and refugees to the Holy Light's Hope Chapel as much as possible."

"Is that all?" Alonsus asked in confusion. "There are dozens of towns and hundreds of thousands of civilians in Lordaeron. Are we going to give up everything?"

Jack said, "It's not about giving up, but about saving as many as we can. Not only have the undead cooperated with the demons, but they have also deployed a powerful sky fortress. We are no match for them now, so we can only let the people hide as much as possible. The Silver Hand is the most powerful army in Lordaeron, but facing the demons and the sky fortress, they have almost no ability to fight back. If I hadn't felt the endless holy light in the Light's Hope Chapel, I wouldn't even agree to stay here."

Alonsus didn't expect the situation to be so serious. He nodded heavily, agreeing with Jack's idea.

"However, Lordaeron cannot ignore the civilians. I will send people to guide the civilians to hide in places where the undead and demons cannot find them."

Jack said admiringly, "Sir Fao, I am ashamed of your greatness. Next, I will also seek help from civilians as much as possible and save as many people as possible from disaster."

"On behalf of the people of Lordaeron, I thank you, Captain Jack."

Alonsus was indeed an old priest, and now he began to act like a master. However, this was also what Jack wanted to see.

So Princess Calia thanked him and handed a letter of commission to Alonsus Faol.

Alonsus immediately sent people to warn the surrounding towns. He used several towns that were easy to defend and difficult to attack as strongholds and transferred the refugees to these places.

"All Lordaeron people, Princess Calia has appointed Alonsus Faol as the acting commander of the Silver Hand. Lord Faol is warning you that the armies of the undead and demons are wreaking havoc on the land of the Kingdom of Lordaeron. For your own safety, please immediately go to Light's Hope Chapel, Hearthglen, Tyr's Hand, Alterac Mountains and other refuges..."

The prestige that Faol had built up over the years convinced the people of Lordaeron. After receiving the notice, everyone immediately fled to the nearby shelter.

After only three days, everyone heard good news: Renault Mograine, acting lord of the Hand of Tyr, had already begun setting up a shelter.

High Lord Alexandros Mograine was clearing out orcs in the Southshore area under the orders of King Terenas. Alonsus did not expect the newly-adult Raynor to have any sense of crisis, but now it seems that the child is quite obedient.

Seeing that the situation was developing in a positive direction and that the scouts sent to Stratholme had already discovered the Lich King's purpose, Jack immediately bid farewell to Alonsus.

Alonsus did not try to stop Jack, as he knew that Jack had a more important mission. He sent more than a dozen priests and paladins to the Black Pearl to serve as mentors, spread the faith of Holy Light to the crew and refugees, and train them to become priests or paladins.

"Jack, leave Lordaeron's affairs to me for now. We must defeat the undead and the demons!"
