26. Imaginable enemies

Dick had insomnia, this was the first time he had insomnia since he crossed over, he dreamed of the dozen elven soldiers who had been cut off for them, and dreamed that they were standing beside him all over their bodies, and behind them were blood-red flames that covered the sky, it was the fire of the undead, the color he hated the most. The warriors didn't say a word www.biquge.info just looked at him directly, their white eyes, their torn armor, and their bodies full of terrible scars.

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't have left you there..."

“…”

"I'm sorry, I..."

The dream suddenly changed, and Dick stood again in the dense forest where he was fighting with the black-clothed Marduk, and he watched like a bystander, watching the six paladins being pounced on by the surging undead, they struggled desperately, but there were too many enemies. Their palms and ankles were pinned, and finally their throats were torn open by the ghoul's jet-black claws.

Dick wanted to come forward to help, but his body was empty, he had no strength at all, and the fire of justice was gone, and he was left with only a pair of fists, and he roared and pounced on it, but the next moment, the damn dream changed again.

The dark forest, the foraging black snake, the dying warrior, he saw him crawl forward with his left hand with difficulty, he saw the snake kiss of the poisonous snake falling on his body, he saw himself, the survival, the difficult survival, in the silence, with his teeth, hard to bite the poisonous snake clean.

"Bang!"

The darkness shattered, like shattered glass, and the inky light swallowed up everything, leaving Dick alone, standing in the boundless darkness, which was surging and trying to wrap his body.

"Enough!

Dick ran as fast as he could, but there was no light, no way forward, only darkness.

"You shameless thief! You stole everything from me, you stole my life! Give me back, give me back!"

Dick's neck was choked, his body was thrown to the ground, and he looked at his other self in horror with blood-red eyes, viciously choking his neck, trying to strangle him to death.

"No... You... You're dead!"

"Thief!

"I didn't!"

"Dick... Mr. Dick, Knight Dick, what's wrong with you?"

Liadrin's voice reached Dick's ears, and she tried to reach out and shake Dick from a sweaty head, but the paladin, awakened from the nightmare, dragged Liadleine's arm like a beast, crushing the High Priest under him, and the fire of justice in his other hand was carried in his hand, and the heavy blue spar hammer was about to smash into the panicked elf's head.

"Don't!"

Liadeline screamed in panic, this sound finally woke up the paladin who was dominated by nightmares, Dick shook his head, looked at Liadeline who was choked by his neck, and the war hammer in his left hand, he woke up from a dream, he hurriedly let go of the elf's body, and sat on the ground.

His back was soaked... That dream, that dream was so weird.

"Yes... I'm sorry!"

Dick sat cross-legged on the ground, apologizing to Liadline, who had been slumped on the ground by the fear of death just now, and looked at Dick panting, the look in her eyes softened.

Liadline was a veteran of the Troll War and the Second Orc War, and she was all too familiar with Dick's situation, and veterans who had retired from the battlefield generally had this kind of nightmare situation, and in some cases, killing family members.

Dick was already a very restrained person, looking at Dick's face full of cold sweat, Liadeline moved her body and gently put Dick's head on her lap, like a child, while touching his hair, comforting.

"Don't worry, Knight Dick, we'll all go back safely, rest for 20 minutes, and I'll wake you up later." ”

This intimate gesture made Dick want to run away, but the physical and mental exhaustion made him want to stay in this warm embrace, and he took a deep breath.

This time... Just this once...

Dick told himself, and then lay down peacefully in Liadline's arms, perhaps the priest's light energy brought him close, but in short, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

Liadline looked at Dick in her arms, and after she wiped Dick's face with her own handkerchief and wiped the blood that remained on his face, she realized that the human knight who had suddenly appeared in her life was younger than she had imagined.

It's like a child.

But he was already a warrior of the Light, and the human world was so wonderful, and Liadline thought back to when she was the age of Dick, learning the culture of the elves behind her parents, and only after the death of her parents did she truly mature.

And what about this child?

What is it about him that he has become so mature?

In a trance, Liadline became more and more interested in Dick's past.

When a woman is interested in a man, it is not far from her entering the man's life.

Twenty minutes later, Dick opened his eyes, and Liadline was kneeling beside him, helping him wipe the flames of justice.

Since entering Quel'Thalas, this holy hammer has almost been spent in battle, and even the spars on its surface have been mottled with blood, but under the wiping of Liadrin, this sky-blue crystal holy hammer has also regained the light that an artifact should have.

"Thank you, Lady Liadrin. ”

Dick took water from his storage backpack and poured it on his face, his sleepy expression lightened slightly, and he reached out to take the hammer from Miss Priest's hand and carried it behind him.

"It's a good weapon, even in Quel'Thalas, I've never seen a crystal with such a high affinity for the Holy Light, was it given to you by your Grand Knight of Uther?"

Liadline asked curiously, and Dick shrugged,

"It's a secret! Lady Liadrin, come with me, it's time for us to go!"

Dick smiled at Liadline, who rolled his eyes and chuckled,

"Just call me Liadrin. ”

"Alright, come with me, Liadrin, and I'll take you home!"

When Dick took Liadline to the outside of the dense forest, Myra and the others had already sorted out their battle outfits for the last time, and the last bit of holy water was evenly distributed to everyone's hands, Dick didn't say anything, he looked into everyone's eyes and raised his left hand.

"Brothers, we have come this far, what can stop us from moving forward? We have proved with our actions that Arthas and his evil legions are not invincible, and they will also fail, so we will also win!

Everyone cheered three times in unison, and even Sylvanas, who had always been indifferent, raised his war bow, and this day and night of escape made these nearly 50 people completely twisted into a rope, this is the power of sharing adversity.

The knights rode in pairs, urging the war horses to gallop in the direction of Jinwu Village, Sylvanas ran in front on a war horse alone, four bundles of long arrows hung on both sides of the war horse, and the war bow in his hand did not stop humming, multiple arrows, aiming shots, explosive shots, any undead who would stop this team would be ruthlessly headshot.

The exquisite archery skills inherited by the Windranger family are vividly displayed at this moment.

"She's like a moving battery!"

Dick exclaimed, Liadline saw her friend who had regained her fighting spirit, and she was also smiling, Dick flicked her whip, and the speed of the rested war horse was a little faster, and in the dim light of the Ghost Lands, the Golden Mist Village was already in sight.

Sylvanas was right, it was a depression, and the Golden Mist Village was located in the depression, and since the buildings of the Golden Mist Village were still there, all the knights stopped their horses when they reached the edge of the depression. Such a reckless rush is likely to injure the warhorse, especially when the situation below is unclear.

"Myra, protect the priests, and the others will follow me first!"

Dick urged the reins of the horse, and let the war horse move slowly in the direction of the depression, and the Golden Mist Village in front of him had become a burned ruin, but from the appearance of the ruins, it could still be seen how beautiful this village was when it was intact.

Sylvanas walked alongside him, her warbow in her hand vigilantly, and a specially handled arrow was fired into the sky, and as it fell, the fire on the arrow lit up, and the orange light streaked through the air, illuminating the dark ruins.

Dick didn't even use his eyes, he felt the surge of holy light in his body, which was a stress response to the energy of death as a mutual restraint when approaching the energy of death, the front... There must be an ambush!

He took a deep breath and raised his left hand high,

"Follow me!"

The azure flame of justice turned into a dazzling pearl under the infusion of holy energy, Dick urged the war horse, rushed into the ruins first, two dedication spells were thrown to the sides by him, and the moment they landed, the blazing light rising from the ground forced the undead hiding in the ruins out.

All ghouls and skeleton warriors, the lowest-level walking corpses did not appear at all, it seems that this is definitely a trap laid by Arthas for Dick and others, just when Dick led the team to rush to the rear of the Golden Mist Village, the gargoyles who swooped down from the dark canopy also began a unique attack.

These monsters, having accumulated kinetic energy in mid-air, unleashed their innate magic, petrification, turning their bodies into intricately carved stones, pulling out a scream in the air and smashing down on the rushing crowd.

Seeing this, Sylvanas flipped lightly from her galloping horse to the ground, and three thick black arrows were placed on her bow and aimed at the stones that fell from the sky, and the three long arrows roared into the sky.

Multiple arrows!

Sylvanas's body was still seriously injured, but it was not difficult for her to shoot multiple arrows, the thick long arrows quickly split in the air, and soon turned into dense black light head-on, and when it collided with the gargoyles falling from the sky, the sky seemed to appear as if there were multidimensional flashes of light.

It was a spark of collision, and just three arrows cleared almost a quarter of the sky.

Looking at the dense gargoyles falling from the sky, the Ranger General drew three arrows again, and her pretty face was full of slaughter.

"This is the sky dominated by the Windrangers, who will allow you to spread your wings?"

After three shots, the entire sky was cleared, and there was not one gargoyles left on the ground, even if they were constructing monsters, after destroying the core, they would die or collapse, and their shattered bodies became the best obstacle to the progress of the undead.

Dick and the knights had already built an improvised defensive line, and Sylvanas turned around and ran towards the bank of the Golden Mist Village after clearing the sky, light as a running antelope, but just as she ran 3 steps away, a long sword emitting a black energy light band like a ghost's claw pierced through the noise of the battlefield and shot straight at Sylvanas.

On the other side of the battlefield, a tall black figure stood up from the ruins, holding a black rose ornament in his hand, a longbow as tall as a man, and at the moment of his appearance, all the undead began to roar in unison, as if to welcome the arrival of the general.

And Liadrin, who was already standing by the river, was even more struck by lightning when she saw this figure, and she looked at the tall and familiar figure, her hands already pinched together.

"Lotherma... Oh my God, how is this possible!"
