Chapter 251: Lost (34)
The guards who led Loria away walked directly towards the elevator in the Undercity...... Is it okay to walk over blatantly like this?
Loria soon found herself overly worried, and the abominants who would normally stare at her as if they hadn't seen her at all as soon as they approached the elevator.
They walked into the elevator and quickly came out again, only to be back on the ground in a moment.
The craftsmen who built the Undercity had set the exit in a special place, and when they exited the elevator, they only had to walk through a door to see the throne of the former King of Lordaeron, which was once a great hall of hearings, now in ruins, littered with broken pillars and broken bricks, and covered the thrones of kings with a thick layer of dust.
It was here that Terenus ruled his once-formidable kingdom, where he defeated the Horde and was killed by his own children.
Many of the materials used to build the Undercity were taken from Lordaeron, perhaps because the elevator needed a concealment, and the small area that had once been the royal court had not been completely demolished.
Legend has it that the most prosperous city in the world is now only the size of a square.
The Terrorguard still silently leads the way, and the vicinity of the Undercity is full of undead, and he wants to send Loria to a relatively safe place.
They followed the trail to the northwest, and after a few hours, there was no trace of the undead around, and it was all deserted.
The Undead Guardian stopped moving forward, and handed Loria the small cloth bag in his hand.
"For me?" Loria opened her cloth bag, revealing an old book of poems in Salas, and a map of Tirisfa, flipping open the yellowed title page of the book that read L-Diel-SL...... It's Sylvanas' handwriting.
Obviously, it would be nice to just say it to your face...... Do you have to say goodbye in such an awkward way?
After looking through it in silence for a while, Loria silently put the old, very precious-looking book into the last place in her bag, and when she packed her bags, she found that the Undead Guardian had left silently.
"The undead don't have the habit of saying goodbye? ”
Muttering, Loria released Alice to feed, and by the way, she scrubbed off her disguise with water.
Probably never have to disguise yourself as an undead again.
Putting Alice, who was well fed and drunk, into her pocket, Loria was about to leave with her bags on her back when a cry for help came from not far away.
Though she didn't want to be nosy, the screamer seemed to have seen Loria and was running towards her with all her might—it was a woman with a huge bat behind her.
Tirisfa's wild giant bats are so heavy that they can only glide around are hideous, but Loria isn't afraid of them, she can chase them away with her bare hands.
"Help, save me!"
The woman, who looked to be in her thirties and forties, panting as she ran, finally approached Loria, and the bat that was following her came to a distant halt, and after a moment of hesitation, then slid over - this time towards Loria.
Are you so stupid that you can't tell the difference between strong and weak...... Loria put down her backpack and picked up a rock from the ground and held it in her hand—everyone, including herself, forgot to prepare a weapon for her.
"Run!" The middle-aged woman wanted to step forward and pull Loria, but was skillfully dodged by Lori.
Obviously, her face was full of fear that could not be hidden, but this woman who looked a little familiar did not run away...... It's just that there is enough distance to react with Loria.
Loria, who was underestimated, pursed her lips and ignored the strange middle-aged woman behind her, and turned her head to look at the bat, which had stopped gliding, and stood on its weak feet, flapping its wings and leaning towards Loria tremblingly.
There is no hostility at all.
The extremely ugly-looking giant bat approached Loria and circled her twice, looking intimate...... Loria is dumbfounded, she is rarely liked by animals except Ahri.
She had never known that she had such a passive skill as 'naturally attracting animals'...... Besides, aren't the Mary Sues all cats, puppies, birds, and raccoons...... Why is it her turn to be an ugly vampire!
Bloodsucker...... Loria suddenly realized.
Despite their ugliness, bats seem to have always been vampires' most reliable animal friends.
Helplessly, Loria threw away the stone in her hand and gave her natural friend a few strips of jerky, and the bat, which was not crushed, jumped around her a few more times, and then left in three steps and one turn.
Loria was suddenly glad that she had never had a talent or hobby for singing, and the scene where she could attract a large group of winged mice when she howled was so beautiful that it was impossible to look at it directly.
"Thank you for saving me. ”
The woman behind Loria who was about to be forgotten by her opened her mouth to increase her sense of storage, "Can you please do me a favor?"
"Who are you?"
Loria asked angrily, although it was true that she could shoot a train of bats, but it was really annoying to hide behind others when she got into trouble...... At the very least, you have to cheer and say a few harsh words, right?
"We've seen it, in ......," the woman's expression distorted as she seemed to recall something painful, "I heard that you saved us...... Thank you. ”
"I remembered!"
Nodding her head with her index finger, Loria remembered after a moment that she hadn't been the mother of the mother and daughter she had met under the alchemy room in the Dark City, and she still liked the little girl, "How is your daughter? Why are you wandering here?"
Sylvanas kept her word, and as payment for Loria's work, she released all the human captives that she was supposed to use as a real yàn...... As for what happens if any humans are captured in the future?
"Nina...... Nina She ...... She was injured...... Please help me...... Please save her. ”
The woman who didn't know her name spoke intermittently, and Loria smelled a lie.
Although it seemed very suspicious to wander around in the undead's control area, and Loria instinctively felt that the other party was lying...... But the anxious expression on her face for the child was not disguised.
Maybe there's something hard to say, right?
Loria decided to go with her anyway.
……
"Wait. ”
In an abandoned farmhouse that smelled of death, Loria called to the woman who was leading the way in front of her, "Further on is Brill, you don't need to tell you that there is a large wave of undead there...... What's going on?"
It was not easy to be quietly let go by Sylvanas, and Loria didn't want to get too close to the undead's stronghold, and if she was captured, it would be worth the loss.
"Right...... I'm sorry. ”
The woman's expression was so nervous that even Shoumei could see that something was very wrong.
